EXPLANATORY NOTE
In conjunction with our
independent registered public accounting firm and professional advisors, we
conducted an analysis of our various financial instruments and agreements
involving convertible debt and common stock financings accompanied by warrants,
with a particular focus on the accounting treatment of derivative financial
instruments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), the
Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company’s Own Stock (“EITF 00-19”), and FASB Staff Position
No. EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”
(“EITF 00-19-2”), (collectively, the “Derivative Accounting
Pronouncements”). Accordingly, certain accounting policies we previously
considered to reflect what was deemed to be appropriate at the time when the
financings were previously reported, have been modified by recent
interpretations, including the Derivative Accounting Pronouncements.
On November 2, 2007, as
a result of this analysis, we noted that our previously filed financial
statements in the annual reports for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and
2006 filed on Form 10-KSB, together with the quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB
for the quarters ending March 31, 2005, June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005,
March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006, March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007
and September 30, 2007 (collectively, the “Reports”) could no longer be relied
upon. We sent a formal letter request to the Office of the Chief
Accountant (OCA) of the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) dated December
17, 2007, petitioning the OCA to waive the requirement to file separate amended
and restated Reports for the periods noted above, and instead file a
comprehensive amended and restated comparative Form 10-KSB for the years ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, along with certain comprehensive financial
information and disclosures for 2004, and comprehensive amended and restated
comparative Form 10-QSBs for the periods ended March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007,
and September 30, 2007 along with certain comprehensive financial information
and disclosures for 2005. This waiver was granted by the OCA on December 27,
2007.
This restatement is
required to properly reflect our financial results for certain non-cash, and
non-operational related charges or credits to earnings associated with both
embedded and freestanding derivative liabilities, and the accounting for certain
derivatives under the control of the issuer due to the revised interpretation
and implementation of the Derivative Accounting Pronouncements.
Under EITF 00-19,
warrants are considered free-standing instruments in that they are legally
detachable and separately exercisable. The conversion benefits, which are
embedded in these debt issues, derive value from the relationship between the
stock price and debt conversion price, and are considered embedded derivatives
under the provisions of SFAS 133. The fair values of both the warrants and
conversion benefits are calculated using a Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model,
taking into consideration factors such as the underlying price of the common
stock, the exercise price for warrants or the conversion price for the
conversion benefit, the stock volatility, and the risk-free interest rates
available for comparable time periods.
Free-standing
instruments (warrants), and embedded derivatives (conversion benefits) which are
initially bifurcated or separated from the host financial instrument, are
recorded as separate liabilities, in cases where the security holder has a right
to choose to receive a “net settlement” of cash. The identification of such net
settlement provisions for prior convertible debt issuances with warrants
resulted in us concluding that such securities should have been identified as
“derivatives”, and therefore warrant liabilities must be recorded as separate
derivative liability accounts on our restated balance sheet, and marked to
market for each subsequent reporting period with any non-cash charges or credits
attributed to the revised fair value of the liability being recognized through
earnings (after the reversal of previously incorrectly recorded charges and/or
credits to earnings).
If
the decision to settle the outstanding liability remains with us, the value of
the warrants should be recorded in an equity account. The identification of the
settlement provisions we controlled under certain debt issuances resulted in us
determining that the warrants should be reflected in the restated financial
statements as components of equity, as compared to having been previously
recorded as liabilities with non-cash charges and/or credits to earnings as a
result of being marked to market for each period presented.
EITF 00-19-2
specifies that the contingent obligations to make future payments or otherwise
transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued
as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or
other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with
SFAS No. 5, “Accounting
for Contingencies.” FSP No. EITF 00-19-2 also requires
additional disclosure regarding the nature of any registration payment
arrangements, alternative settlement methods, the maximum potential amount of
consideration and the current carrying amount of the liability, if any. This
EITF is effective January 1,2007 and will be adopted by the us.
We
also previously sold stock units, which included warrants along with common
stock. In these cases, a portion of the proceeds equal to the value of the
warrants is allocated to the warrants, with the balance allocated to the stock.
In such cases where a net settlement provision for cash exists, the values of
the warrants are treated as liabilities, and the balance is revalued at the end
of each reporting period with any change in value being recognized currently as
a non-cash charge and/or credit to earnings. When a warrant classified as a
liability is exercised or cancelled, the fair value of the warrant, as
determined at the time of exercise or cancellation, is transferred to equity,
and is no longer revalued. A similar adjustment is made for a conversion benefit
classified as a liability when the debt is converted to stock, or cancelled.
For
the convenience of the reader, this Form 10-KSB/A sets forth the original Form
10-KSB in its entirety. However, this Form 10-KSB/A only amends our financial
statements and the footnotes to our financial statements, along with the
corresponding changes to our Management’s Discussion and Analysis. We also
corrected typographical errors and have revised our controls and procedures
disclosure as a result of these restatements. No other information in the
original Form 10-KSB is amended hereby. In addition, pursuant to the rules of
the SEC, Item 13 of Part III to the filing has been amended to contain currently
dated certifications from our Principal Executive Officer and Principal
Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002. The certifications of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal
Financial Officer are attached to this Form 10KSB/A as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1
and 32.2, respectively.

Item 1. Description of
Business
We were
incorporated in the State of New Jersey on April 17, 1997. On May 19, 1997, we
entered into a merger agreement with a predecessor company that was incorporated
on May 10, 1995. We were the surviving company in the merger.
Effective
November 5, 1999, we merged with MAS Acquisition IX Corp ("MAS"), and were the
surviving company in the merger. Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger,
as amended, each share of common stock of MAS was converted to 0.00674 shares of
our company. After giving effect to fractional and other reductions, MAS
shareholders received 57,280 of our shares as a result of the
merger.
In March
2004, we reached an agreement in principal, subject to certain closing
conditions, with Fil Filipov to acquire 51% of the capital stock of Filco GmbH,
a German corporation. In October 2004, Mr. Filipov and we agreed to modify our
agreement in principal so as to increase the number of shares of the capital
stock of Filco GmbH, which we could acquire, if we had finalized the
acquisition, from 51% to 75.1%. Through December 31, 2005, we had loaned Filco
GmbH an aggregate principal amount of $6,275,881 with no loans made by us in
2006, exclusive of interest at 8% per annum, pursuant to a series of secured
promissory notes. Security for these loans consisted of Filco's plant machinery,
equipment and other plant property, and intellectual property, including designs
and drawings. We used proceeds from the private placement offerings that we
completed during 2004 and 2005 to fund the Filco loans.
On
January 20, 2006, Filco filed for insolvency in Germany. As a result of the
filing by Filco, we terminated the Acquisition Agreement on February 7, 2006. An
auction sale of Filco’s assets occurred on May 10, 2006. Due to the uncertainty
of our position under German bankruptcy law, $4,275,881 of the Filco advances
was written off in 2005, and the remaining $2,000,000 was written off in 2006.
Accordingly, any inventory, equipment or outstanding advances to Filco have been
written off during 2006 and there is no indication that the proceeds of any
inventory or equipment at the Filco plant will be returned to us.
In
connection with the Acquisition Agreement, Mr. Filipov was to receive options to
purchase 900,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.01. We
did not issue such options because the Acquisition Agreement was terminated and
we believe that the conditions for such issuance were never fulfilled. Mr.
Filipov has indicated to us that he believes that the conditions were fulfilled
and that we owe him the options. We and Mr. Filipov are endeavoring to reach a
mutually acceptable settlement.
Introduction
Since
1995, substantially all of our resources and operations have been directed
towards the development of the Omni-Directional wheel, related components,
Omni-Directional Lift Trucks and other Omni-Directional Vehicles. Many of the
components, including the unique shaped wheels, motors, and frames, have been
designed by Airtrax and are specially manufactured for us.
Omni-Directional
means that vehicles designed and built by us can travel in any direction. Our
Omni-directional vehicles are controlled with a joystick. The vehicle will
travel in the direction the joystick is pushed. If the operator pushes the
joystick sideways, the vehicle will travel sideways. If the operator were to
twist the joystick the vehicle will travel in circles. Our omni-directional
vehicles have one motor and one motor controller for each wheel. The
omni-directional movement is caused by coordinating the speed and direction of
each motor with joystick inputs which are routed to a micro-processor, then from
the micro-processor to the motor controllers and finally to the motor
itself.
During
the year ended December 31, 2006, we continued development of the COBRA and KING
COBRA scissor lifts and the Omni-Directional power chair. We anticipate
incurring more costs on these products and plan to begin production of the first
COBRA model and the KING COBRA in 2007. The growth and development of our
business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We
currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating
plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue operations.
However, we are in discussions with lenders to raise capital in order to
continue operating, although we have no contracts or commitments for additional
capital at this time. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short
or long term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have
a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders. However, there can be no
assurance that additional financing will be available at terms that are suitable
to us.
The
assembly of our products is conducted at our executive offices. Currently 100%
of our vehicle frames are being manufactured in the USA. These frames are
shipped to the Blackwood plant for final assembly. Previously, partially
assembled vehicles were shipped to the Blackwood facility from the Filco plant
in Germany. Fourteen were shipped to the USA for final assembly. A total of
approximately sixty frames were shipped from Bulgaria to the Filco plant for
partial assembly. None of the frames shipped from Bulgaria were within
specification. The twenty-seven frames shipped to the United States required
re-machining in order to make them useable. The balance were rejected and
abandoned with other parts inventory that was stored in the Filco
plant.
OMNI-DIRECTIONAL
TECHNOLOGY
Prior
History
Omni
directional vehicle technology has been the subject of research and development
by universities, the Department of Defense, and industry for over 25 years. A
Swedish inventor patented an early stage omni-directional wheel. Thereafter, the
technology was purchased by the United States Navy and was advanced at the Naval
Surface Warfare Center. The US Navy held the patent until its expiration in
1990. In 1996, the Navy transferred this technology to us for commercialization
through a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA).
Technology
Description
Since the
technology transfer under the CRADA agreement, we have examined and redesigned
many aspects of the system for use in various applications including lift trucks
and other material handling equipment. In this regard, we refined control
software and hardware, and tested a variety of drive component features on our
pilot Omni-Directional lift trucks, scissor-lifts, and multi-purpose mobility
platforms. Extensive demonstrations of prototype vehicles for commercial and
military users in combination with market research have enabled us to direct our
development efforts towards the products offering the best probability of
success in the market.
Our
engineers have designed other aspects of our machine to complement the unique
functionality of our Omni-Directional technology. In so doing, we achieved a
virtually maintenance free drive system which allows the vehicle free and
unrestricted movement during operation. Each vehicle is powered with electric
motors that eliminate brushes and commutators of conventional DC motors. The
motors also are lubricated for life thereby eliminating the need for additional
greasing and fittings. The ATX-3000 transmission uses a synthetic lubricant, and
is sealed for life. The joysticks control all vehicle movement. Conventional
drive trains, steering racks, hydraulic valve levers, and foot petals for
braking and acceleration are all non-existent.
On
vehicles employing our Omni-Directional Technology, each wheel powered wheel has
a separate electric motor, making the vehicle capable of traveling in any
direction. The motion of the vehicle is controlled by coordinating all powered
wheels through a microprocessor that receives input from an operator-controlled
joystick(s). The joystick(s) control all vehicle movement (starting, steering,
and stopping). The frame of our ATX-3000 Omni-Directional Lift Truck consists of
a steel main frame and attached articulating axle, mobilized with four
Omni-Directional wheels. The AC electric motor for each wheel turns its own
wheel hub. Each wheel hub is encircled with multiple specially shaped rollers
that are offset 45 degrees. By independently controlling the forward or rearward
rotation of each wheel, the vehicle has the capability of traveling in any
direction. The technology allows the vehicle to move forward, laterally,
diagonally, or completely rotate within its own footprint, thereby allowing it
to move into confined spaces without difficulty. The navigational options of an
Omni-Directional vehicle are virtually limitless.
EXISTING
AND PROPOSED PRODUCTS
SIDEWINDER Omni-Directional Lift
Trucks. We anticipate that we will add additional models of lift trucks
to the SIDEWINDER line, including a Reach truck and an Order Picker
truck.
Omni-Directional Aerial Work
Platform. In late February 2004, we, in collaboration with MEC Aerial
Platform Sales Corporation of Fresno, California ("MEC"), introduced a concept
version of a scissor lift at the American Rental Association trade show in
Atlanta. The scissor lift called the "PHOENIX(TM)", incorporated our
Omni-Directional technology along with an MEC platform and lift
mechanisms.
On March
13, 2004, we entered into a draft Product Development, Sales and Representation
Agreement with MEC. The draft agreement called for the joint development of a
proto-type and production versions of an Omni-Directional aerial work platform
called the "3068ODS". During the development stage, each party was to provide
the parts, which apply to that party's area of responsibility. We would provide
all of the parts required for the Omni-Directional traction system and related
control systems, and MEC would provide all of the parts required for the scissor
lift and lifting apparatus and the control systems for the scissor lift
apparatus. After development of the prototype version, the parties were to
establish the cost of a commercial product, and if the cost of a commercial
product was considered commercially viable, the parties would jointly develop a
commercial version of the aerial work platform. If commercial production
resulted, we would have been responsible for product manufacturing, and MEC or
its affiliate would have been responsible to promote, market and sell the
product to their network of approximately 200 distributors. Aerial work platform
sales made by MEC would be subject to a royalty to us and, likewise sales made
by us would be subject to a royalty to MEC. The amount of the respective
royalties would be subject to agreement by the parties. Orders placed by MEC
would be financed by MEC subject to agreed production schedules. We also planned
to manufacture the COBRA(TM) AWP using the lifting mechanism as designed by us
or procured from MEC and vendors other than MEC.
During
2004, MEC was repositioned to perform manufacturing in the United States thus
removing their obligation under the agreement. During the latter part of 2004,
we presented MEC with invoices for payment of tooling and engineering costs
related to development of the PHOENIX(TM). The invoices were not paid by MEC who
was, at that time, in the process of realigning their finances. As a result of
the aforementioned changes, the agreement was modified. The modification stated
that the 3068ODS aerial work platform project would be products of our company
instead of an MEC designed or built vehicle. This meant that the project would
be henceforth designed and built by us. MEC would still have the ability to make
suggestions regarding vehicle design or construction, but the final product
would be our product. In addition, the agreement was revised to provide that we
would build another vehicle product line, the COBRA, which will be marketed
exclusively by our dealers. The parties mutually agreed to the dissolution of
the agreement and Airtrax has decided to design, build and market the AWP’s
under the COBRA brand exclusively. Discussions with MEC regarding ways that they
can make Omni-Directional AWP’s available to their customers are on
going.
Omni-Directional Personal Mobility
Devices. We have begun the development of new technologies which will
enable us in the future, to develop Omni-Directional Personal Mobility Devices
such as Power Chairs, Scooters, and patient beds or lifts. We have had
discussions with several equipment manufacturers who may be interested in
developing and marketing such products using these technologies. No agreements
have been made. We will require additional funds to complete structural and
ergonomic designs and proto-type vehicles, for further evaluation and testing.
We cannot predict whether we will be able to successfully develop these
products.
Military Products. During
1999, we were awarded a Phase I research contract under the Department of
Defense's Small Business Innovation Research program (SBIR) to develop an
Omni-Directional Multiple Purpose Mobility Platform (MP2). Under the Phase I
base contract, we studied the application of the omni-directional technology for
military use and were supervised by the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft
Division (NAWC-AD) in Lakehurst, New Jersey. The contemplated use includes the
installation of jet engines on military aircraft and the transportation of
munitions and other military goods. We completed the Phase I base contract in
1999 and were subsequently awarded a Phase I option from NAWC-AD to further
define the uses of the MP2. In July 2000, we were awarded a Phase II research
contract under the SBIR program. Under the Phase II contract, we studied the
feasibility of the MP2 for military purposes, and constructed two proto-type
devices. This contract (with the option) was extended twice for 6 months each
past the 42-month contract time period. A completed proto-type MP2 was delivered
to the US Navy during the end of the first quarter of 2004 for testing purposes.
A second design, an Omni-Directional Jet Engine Handler conversion kit was
constructed, and demonstrated as proof of concept of the modularity of the
design. We have been advised by the US Navy that a non-SBIR sponsor for the MP2
program must be identified before a Phase II option is exercised. A Phase III
contract could be awarded without such a sponsor. Although our management
believes the underlying Omni-Directional Technology for the proposed MP2 has
significant potential for both commercial and military applications, we cannot
predict whether any sales beyond the Phase II contract will result from the SBIR
program. It is the belief of management that sales to the US military for
products such as the MP2 will not materialize until the
Omni-Directional Technology achieves commercial acceptance. We do believe,
however, that products such as the ATX-3000 or the COBRA AWP can and will be
sold to the US government, possibly including the military, through a GSA
Multiple Awards Contract. We have begun the application process and hope it will
be awarded by mid-2007. We cannot predict whether we will be successful in our
application.
On
September 7, 2006, we were awarded a $415,000 contract to design and build a
customized MP2 Equipment Handling Unit for the Israeli Air Force. The contract
includes an option to build 5 additional units at $95,000 each upon the
acceptance of the first unit. It is estimated that the follow on orders that
could result from this contract would be from 29 to 100 units over the next one
to three years. The Critical Design Review was completed in November 2006, the
design was approved and initial deliverables were provided. As a result, we
received a first process payment of $170,000 on December 12, 2006. We expect to
begin the Acceptance Test Procedure in mid-April 2007 and upon successful
completion, will receive a second payment of $162,000. We cannot predict whether
we will be able to successfully pass all of the acceptance tests and complete
the contract, or that if we do so, that any subsequent orders will
result.
CURRENT
OPERATIONS
Since
1995, substantially all of our resources and operations have been directed
towards the development of the Omni-Directional wheel, related components,
Omni-Directional Lift Trucks and other Omni-Directional Vehicles. Many of the
components, including the unique shaped wheels, motors, and frames, have been
designed by Airtrax and are specially manufactured for us. 29 ATX-3000
Omni-Directional lift trucks, carrying ANSI certification and the UL Label, have
been shipped to customers in 2006, and nine others are ready to ship pending
receipt of orders in the beginning of 2007.
ANSI
testing refers to a series of tests including tilt testing the vehicle with
masts it will use to make certain that it will not tip over in normal use. In
addition, ANSI testing includes drop testing specified loads on the overhead
guard to make certain that the overhead guard will not fail and crush the
operator. These tests require us to turn the vehicle on its side to prove that
the battery door lock will retain the battery in the event the vehicle is
overturned. ANSI testing was performed and documented by us and we have
certified that the tests have been completed and the vehicle has passed in all
respects. This testing was required prior to the vehicle being sold to the
public in the United States.
UL
testing is completed on lift trucks to certify that is free of hazards with
respect to fire and electrical shock. Completion of UL testing is generally
considered the mark of companies who will take extra steps and precautions to
protect their customers.
MANUFACTURING
AND SUPPLIERS
There was
limited production in the second through fourth quarters of 2006. All of the
units shipped in 2006 and our current inventory were assembled in the last
quarter of 2005 and the first quarter 2006. Our General Manager for plant
production, a former plant manager for GM, has established the production
assembly process and procedure for our vehicle assembly. His efforts have helped
to develop procedures, and to incorporate inventory control and quality
assurance programs so that we stand ready to rapidly scale production capacity
at the Blackwood facility. Initially this plant was equipped for nominal monthly
production but is capable of ramping up for anticipated demand before year's
end. We also plan to manufacture the KING COBRA Omni-Directional AWP in the
Blackwood plant beginning in the third quarter of 2007.
Components
for our products consist of over the counter products and proprietary products
that have been specially designed and manufactured by various suppliers in
collaboration with us. We believe that continual refinements of certain
components will occur during the first six months of initial KING COBRA
production in response to user feedback and additional product testing. We will
strive to improve product functionality, which may require additional
refinements in the future. We consider the specially designed and manufactured
products proprietary, and have entered into exclusive contractual agreements
with certain suppliers to protect the proprietary nature of these products.
These arrangements prohibit the supplier from producing the same or similar
products for other companies who would want to compete directly with us in the
omni-directional vehicle market. In addition, while we maintain single sources
for some of the over the counter components, we are engaged in qualifying and
securing agreements with second sources for all possible components
DISTRIBUTION
AND PRODUCT MARKETING
We intend
to establish a national and international network of distributors and dealers to
sell our SIDEWINDER and COBRA lines to users, however, we may sell directly to
select national and international accounts and retailers. National and
international accounts or retailers include, but are not limited to, nationally
recognized businesses with national or international locations having facilities
in numerous states or countries.
During
2004 and 2005, in anticipation of commercial production, we solicited interest
from targeted dealers nationwide, and in certain instances, received contracts
from a number of these dealers. Due to the delay in establishing commercial
production, the contracts were not fulfilled. In 2004, we began soliciting
dealers nationwide and distributors in several foreign countries. Principal
terms of the agreement reached is that these dealers will purchase our products
which include the SIDEWINDER or the COBRA AWP (scissor lift), or both and sell
these products to their clients. Certain of the distributors were given
"exclusive" territories, such as Airtrax Canada (Airtrax Canada is not owned or
operated by us but we have authorized their use of the Airtrax Name). Airtrax
Canada was required to purchase a minimum number of SIDEWINDER units to maintain
the "exclusivity" portion of the agreement between firms. Airtrax Canada lost
their exclusivity in 2006, as they did not meet the minimum requirements of the
agreement. Presently, we are unable to distribute quantities of vehicles in
Europe due to our inability to be certified compliant (“CE”) with Europe. We
expect to be CE compliant and able to distribute vehicles in 2007, although no
assurances can be given. The dealers in the US generally have not been given
exclusive territorial rights, but that has occurred in some areas. They are
required to purchase one or more vehicles, however, to become a dealer. Credit
terms are now available to approved dealers while foreign distributors are only
sold under the terms of letters of credit. All foreign sales are paid in
advance, under terms of an irrevocable letter of credit or approved credit
terms. Targeted dealers for the SIDEWINDER brand will consist of selected
premier equipment dealers, currently selling other lift truck products. The
dealer network will consist of dealers who have substantial market share in the
US, with a history of being able to sell and repair lift trucks and/or related
material handling solutions. Several of the targeted dealers are significant
sized entities, having annual sales in excess of $100 million. We expect to
provide a sales incentive to dealers through an aggressive pricing structure.
Typically, a dealer will earn a commission ranging from $500 to $1,000 on the
sale of a competitive lift truck. Our pricing structure will enable the dealer
to receive much higher commissions from the sale of the SIDEWINDER
products.
We also
intend to use trade shows and print and television media to advertise and
promote our Omni-Directional products. Print media will include advertisements
in national and international publications such as web based ads, major material
handling equipment magazines, and direct mailings to targeted distributors and
end-users. Heavy equipment is rarely, if at all, advertised on television.
However, we believe that television will provide an effective media for our
product, due to its unique attributes. We believe that due to the current
economic conditions, we will be able to capitalize on favorable advertising
pricing. We also expect to be an exhibitor at industry trade shows from time to
time, including the bi-annual ProMat show located in Chicago,
Illinois.
Product
Warranty Policies
Our
product warranty policy is similar to the warranty policies of other major
manufacturers, i.e., one-year warranties on all parts and labor, and two years
on major parts, however, our vehicles have fewer parts to warranty. In addition,
manufacturers of our parts and vehicles have their own warranty policies that,
in effect, take the financial exposure from our company. There are exceptions to
the one year rule, such as the frame and significantly, the motors and
controllers. These parts have an eighteen-month warranty, because the coverage
begins when the product is shipped to us and not when the product is
purchased.
MARKETS
Lift
Trucks
Our
initial market focus was directed to the lift truck market. We believe that
commercial versions of Omni-Directional Lift Trucks will improve the materials
handling and warehousing industries creating potential markets globally.
Industry data shows that during 2003 approximately 174,000 and 550,000 units
were sold in the United States and worldwide, respectively (Modern Materials
Handling). Based upon an average per unit sale price of $28,500 (Modern
Materials Handling estimate), the total market in the United States would
approximate $5 billion in 2003. This amount represents sales of a broad range of
vehicles with price ranges from $18,000 to $31,000 for a standard 3,000-pound
rated vehicle to $75,000 or greater for specialty narrow aisle or side loader
vehicles. We expect to continue to make inroads into this market with the
introduction of additional SIDEWINDER brand material handling vehicles in the
future.
Aerial
Work Platforms
Aerial
Work Platforms are used in the construction and warehousing industries, and are
ideally suited for our Omni-Directional Technology. According to data provided
by the United States Department of Commerce, this market consists of
approximately $1.2 billion in annual sales. Aerial Work Platforms and man lifts
range in size from single user lifts to large off road machines. Of the total
market, we expect to compete with a range of indoor man lifts. Great strides
were made in our development of our AWP products during 2006, and we now plan to
introduce two models under the COBRA brand in 2007, and additional units in
2008.
COMPETITION
We expect
to confront competition from existing products, such as standard and "Narrow
Aisle or NA" lift trucks, and from competing technologies. Competition with
standard lift trucks, which retail from $16,000 to $31,000, will be on the basis
of utility, price, and reliability. We believe that we will compete favorably
with a standard lift truck for reliability, and that a purchase decision will be
based upon weighing the operational advantages of our products against its
higher purchase price. NA and sideloader lift trucks retail at $45,000 or
greater. While our SIDEWINDER Omni-Directional Lift Truck cannot be classified
as "narrow aisle", it can perform "narrow aisle" functions at a significantly
less cost. We also are aware of multi-directional lift trucks now being offered
by other manufacturers that retail from $42,000 and higher for the standard
version. These newer products have improved operational features, however, they
are unable to travel in all directions, and hence are not omni-directional.
These machines have to stop, turn all four wheels, and then proceed to drive in
the sideward direction. Despite these improved operational features, management
believes these manufacturers have adhered to older conventional methods and have
added a substantial amount of parts to their lift trucks to achieve improved
functionality, which contrasts with the design and features of our product as
discussed previously herein. Therefore, to that extent, we believe that we
maintain a competitive advantage to these newer products.
We
recognize that many of these manufacturers are subsidiaries of major national
and international equipment companies, and have significantly greater financial,
engineering, marketing, distribution, and other resources than us. In addition,
the patent on the first omni-directional wheels expired in 1990. Although we
have received patent protection for certain aspects of our advanced technology,
no assurances can be given that such patent protection will effectively thwart
competition.
PATENTS
AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
In
December 1997, we were awarded a patent for an omni-directional helicopter
ground-handling device. On January 22, 2002, we received US patent #6,340,065
relating to our low vibrations wheels. On May 28, 2002, we received US patent
#6,394,203 encompassing certain aspects of the omni-directional wheel with some
features specific to the lift truck, and in April 15, 2003 we received US patent
#6,394,203 relating to methods for designing low-vibration wheels. We also have
several patent applications pending relating to other aspects of our technology.
We expect to make future patent applications relating to various other aspects
of our omni-directional technology. We also have filed a patent application for
our hybrid power module concepts. At this time, no foreign patents have been
issued for any of our technology.
On
September 8, 2003, we entered an exclusive license agreement with Excalibur
Design Services, Inc. and Nicholas Fenelli (Inventor), to secure and use certain
proprietary intellectual properties known collectively as “Omni-Directional
Vehicle Control Algorithms”. Mr. Fenelli is also our Chief Operating
Officer. Due to severe cash flow restrictions in 2006, we were unable
to fulfill our obligations under the terms of the agreement and Excalibur
rescinded the exclusivity portion of the agreement. As of December 31, 2006, no
other party was granted rights to use the property. On February 19, 2007, we
negotiated an amendment with Excalibur to reinstate our exclusive rights to the
“Omni-Directional Vehicle Control Algorithms”. We expect to resolve all issues
to the mutual benefit of the two companies during 2007.
We also
seek to protect our proprietary technology through exclusive supply contracts
with manufacturers for specially designed and manufactured components.
PRODUCT
LIABILITY
Due to
nature of our business, we may face claims for product liability resulting from
the use or operation of our lift trucks or other products.
Presently,
we maintain product liability insurance in the amount of $1 million. We
anticipate increasing this amount $10 million in the future, as we deem
necessary to do so. We obtained our insurance commensurate with the initial
shipment of our Omni-Directional Lift Trucks.
EMPLOYEES
As of
March 31, 2007, we have 13 full time employees, and one contract employee, and
engage consultants from time to time. We have no collective bargaining
agreements with our employees and believe our relations with our employees are
good.
Item 2. Description of
Property
We
maintain our administrative offices and assembly facilities at 200 Freeway
Drive, Unit One, Blackwood, NJ 08012. This facility is a total of 30,000 square
feet with 3,000 square feet allocated to offices, and cost a monthly rental fee
of $12,750.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We are
not currently a party to any legal proceedings. There has been no bankruptcy,
receivership or similar proceedings.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of
Security Holders.
No matter
was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the
fiscal year covered by this report.

Common
Stock
Our
Amended Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 shares
of common stock, no par value per share. Holders of shares of common stock are
entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the
stockholders. Holders of common stock have cumulative voting rights. Holders of
shares of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as
may be declared, from time to time by the Board of Directors in its discretion,
from funds legally available therefore. In the event of a liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of our company, the holders of shares of common
stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full
of all liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or other
subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking
fund provisions with respect to such shares.
As of
April 12, 2007, there were 24,379,887 shares of common stock
outstanding.
As of
April 12, 2007, there were approximately 878 stockholders of record of our
common stock, respectively. This does not reflect those shares held beneficially
or those shares held in "street" name.
Dividend
Policy
We have
never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We do not
anticipate paying any cash dividends to stockholders in the foreseeable future.
In addition, any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at the
discretion of the board of directors and will be dependent upon our financial
condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and such other factors
as the Board of Directors deem relevant. There are no restrictions in our
articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends on
our common stock.
Preferred
Stock
As of
April 12, 2007, there were 275,000 shares of Preferred stock outstanding. We
held a special meeting of our shareholders on March 28, 2005 pursuant to which a
majority of our shareholders approved an amendment to our certificate of
incorporation to increase our authorized preferred stock from 500,000 to
5,000,000 shares. Accordingly, we are authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares
of preferred stock. In addition, pursuant to said meeting, a majority of our
shareholders approved an amendment to our certificate of incorporation to
provide that the shares of preferred stock may be issued in series, and shall
have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such
designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special
rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be
stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuance
of such stock adopted from time to time by the board of directors. Accordingly,
our board of directors is expressly vested with the authority to determine and
fix in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issuances of preferred
stock the voting powers, designations, preferences and rights, and the
qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, of each such series to the
full extent now or hereafter permitted by the laws of the State of New
Jersey.
The
holders of the preferred stock are entitled to receive, when, as, and if
declared by our board of directors, out of funds legally available therefore,
cash dividends on each share of preferred stock at the rate of 5% per annum, or
if cash is not legally available, in additional shares of common stock. The
preferred stock, in respect of dividends and distributions upon our liquidation,
winding-up, and dissolution, shall rank senior to all classes of our common
stock and each other class of capital stock or series of preferred stock created
that does not expressly provide that it ranks senior to, or on a parity with,
the preferred stock. The holders of preferred stock are entitled to cast 10
votes for each share held of the preferred Stock on all matters presented to our
shareholders for shareholder vote.
On April
1, 2005, we issued 100,000 shares of preferred stock to the sole holder of the
preferred stock as payment of dividends in lieu of cash dividends with respect
to previously issued shares of preferred stock. Our original Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, including on April 30, 2000, do not support the
issuance of additional shares of preferred stock as payment of dividends on
shares of issued and outstanding preferred stock. Accordingly, the 100,000
shares of preferred stock which were issued to the holder on April 1, 2005, were
issued in error.
Our
Articles of Incorporation, as amended, including on April 30, 2000, similarly do
not support the calculation we used in determining the number of shares of
common stock used to pay preferred stock dividends. The difference being the
date used in determining the stock price at the end of each preferred dividend
period, as opposed to the lowest common stock price during the preferred
dividend period, subject to a 70% discount, for calculating the number of common
shares issued as payment of the period’s preferred stock dividend. Accordingly,
the number of shares was greater than the number of shares required, and were
issued in error.
Our
financial statements at December 31, 2004 reflect 275,000 shares of preferred
stock outstanding and disclosed that an additional 100,000 shares of preferred
stock were deemed the equivalent of 221,892 shares of common stock that would
have been required to settle an equivalent amount of preferred dividends. We
have determined that the number of shares deemed the equivalent of the preferred
stock dividend has been recalculated based on our Articles of Incorporation, as
amended, including on April 30, 2000. Accordingly, we will issue 136,041 shares
of common stock to the sole holder of the preferred stock as payment of $51,561
of preferred stock dividends less other adjustments resulting from the
recalculation of the number of common shares required to pay preferred stock
dividends, subsequently approved. During the period January 1, 2003 through June
30, 2006, 200,238 shares of common stock were issued in excess of the amount
required.

written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or to persons
acting in our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary
statements and risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this annual report,
and in other reports filed by us with the SEC.
You
should read the following description of our financial condition and results of
operations in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes
included in this report beginning on page F-1.
Overview
Since
1995, substantially all of our resources and operations have been directed
towards the development of the Omni-Directional wheel, related components,
Omni-Directional Lift Trucks and other Omni-Directional Vehicles. Many of the
components, including the unique shaped wheels, motors, and frames, have been
designed by Airtrax and are specially manufactured for us.
Omni-Directional
means that vehicles designed and built by us can travel in any direction. Our
Omni-directional vehicles are controlled with a joystick. The vehicle will
travel in the direction the joystick is pushed. If the operator pushes the
joystick sideways, the vehicle will travel sideways. If the operator were to
twist the joystick the vehicle will travel in circles. Our omni-directional
vehicles have one motor and one motor controller for each wheel. The
omni-directional movement is caused by coordinating the speed and direction of
each motor with joystick inputs which are routed to a micro-processor, then from
the micro-processor to the motor controllers and finally to the motor
itself.
During
the year ended December 31, 2006, we continued development of the COBRA and KING
COBRA scissor lifts and the Omni-Directional power chair. We anticipate
incurring more costs on these products and plan to begin production of the first
COBRA and the KING COBRA models in 2007. The growth and development of our
business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We
currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating
plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue operations.
However, we are in discussions with lenders to raise capital in order to
continue operating. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or
long term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a
dilutive effect on our existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that
additional financing will be available at terms that are suitable to
us.
We have
incurred losses and experienced negative operating cash flow since our
inception. For the twelve month period ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, we had
net losses attributable to common shareholders of approximately
$6.2 million and $ 11.6 million, respectively. The net loss
in both periods includes amortization of debt discount and
financing costs of $900,000 and $2.5 million in 2006 and 2005,
respectively, offset by revaluation income $1.4 million and $68,000 in
2006 and 2005, respectively, in connection with the repricing of the conversion
benefits of convertible debenture issues and of warrant conversion
prices. We also wrote down the advances to Filco of $4.7 million and $2 million
in 2006 and 2005, respectively. We expect to continue to incur significant
expenses. Our operating expenses have been and are expected to continue to
outpace revenue and result in additional losses in the near term. We may never
be able to reduce these losses, which will require us to seek additional debt or
equity financing. While we are in discussions with several prospective lenders,
we do not currently have commitments for these funds and there can be no
assurance that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be
on acceptable terms.
Restatement
In
conjunction with our independent registered public accounting firm and
professional advisors, we conducted an analysis of our various financial
instruments and agreements involving convertible debt and common stock
financings accompanied by warrants, with a particular focus on the
accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), the
Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company’s Own Stock (“EITF 00-19”), and FASB Staff Position
No. EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”
(“EITF 00-19-2”), (collectively, the “Derivative Accounting
Pronouncements”). Accordingly, certain accounting policies we previously
considered to reflect what was deemed to be appropriate at the time when the
financings were previously reported, have been modified by recent
interpretations, including the Derivative Accounting Pronouncements.
On
November 2, 2007, as a result of this analysis, we noted that our previously
filed financial statements in the annual reports for the years ended
December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 filed on Form 10-KSB, together with the
quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB for the quarters ending March 31, 2005,
June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005, March 31, 2006, June 30, 2006, September 30,
2006, March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007 and September 30, 2007 (collectively, the
“Reports”) could no longer be relied upon. We sent a formal letter request
to the Office of the Chief Accountant (OCA) of the Security and Exchange
Commission (SEC) dated December 17, 2007, petitioning the OCA to waive the
requirement to file separate amended and restated Reports for the periods noted
above, and instead file a comprehensive amended and restated comparative Form
10-KSB for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, along with certain
comprehensive financial information and disclosures for 2004, and comprehensive
amended and restated comparative Form 10-QSBs for the periods ended March 31,
2007, June 30, 2007, and September 30, 2007 along with certain comprehensive
financial information and disclosures for 2005. This waiver was granted by the
OCA on December 27, 2007.
This restatement is
required to properly reflect our financial results for certain non-cash, and
non-operational related charges or credits to earnings associated with both
embedded and freestanding derivative liabilities, and the accounting for certain
derivatives under the control of the issuer due to the revised interpretation
and implementation of the Derivative Accounting Pronouncements.
Results
of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2006 Compared to the Year Ended
December 31, 2005
Liquidity
constraints and limited access to additional capital for production in 2004 and
2005 and the unexpected death of our Chief Executive Officer and President,
Peter Amico in August 2006 have limited production and sales of omni-directional
technology. Consequently, management believes that the year-to-year comparisons
described below are not indicative of future year-to-year comparative
results.
In
September 2006, Airtrax was awarded a $415,000 contract to design and build a
customized MP2 Equipment Handling Unit for the Israeli Air Force. The contract
includes an option to build five additional units at $95,000 each upon the
acceptance of the first unit. It is estimated that the follow on orders that
could result from this contract would be from 29 to 100 units over the next one
to three years. The Critical Design Review was completed in November 2006, the
design was approved and initial deliverables were provided. As a result, we
received a first process payment of $170,000 on December 12 2006. We expect to
begin the Acceptance Test Procedure in mid April 2007 and upon successful
completion, will receive a second payment of $162,000. We cannot predict whether
we will be able to successfully pass all of the acceptance tests and complete
the contract, or that if we do so, that any subsequent orders will
result.
We
believe that the joint cooperation between us and the United States Navy with
the MP2 contract, including building the ETU-110 omni-directional engine handler
and our contract to design and build a customized MP2 Equipment Handling Unit
for the Israeli Air Force, has bolstered the potential use of our technology
within the military. We do not intend to incur additional costs with the US Navy
unless we incur potential expenses in demonstrating the ETU-110 omni-directional
engine handler, or other omni-directional vehicles in connection with the
Israeli contract.
Revenue
Revenue
for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2006 was approximately $1.3
million, representing an increase of approximately $600,000 from revenue of
$719,000 for the comparable period in 2005. This increase in revenue, is
primarily, attributed to sales of our SIDEWINDER ATX-3000.

of goods sold for the twelve month period months ended December 31, 2006
amounted to approximately $1.5 million, an increase of approximately $800,000
from $729,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005. This increase in
cost of goods sold, is primarily, attributed to sales of our SIDEWINDER
ATX-3000.
Operating
and Administrative Expenses
Operating
and administrative expenses which include administrative salaries, depreciation
and other expenses for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2006 totaled
$5.9 million which represents a decrease of approximately
$3.5 million from $9.4 million incurred in the twelve month period
ended December 31, 2005. The decrease is primarily due to recording of stock
option expenses of $1.1 million in 2005, compared to $76,000 in 2006, partially
offset by additional expenses relating to the increase in production of
our SIDEWINDER ATX-3000 and Cobra and King Cobra scissor lift and
Omni-Directional Power Chair development costs.
Operating
expenses also include a $2.0 million impairment charge for the Filco advances
which were completely written off in 2006, compared to the $4.7 million charged
in 2005.
Other Income and
Expense
Other income and
expenses, net, for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2006 totaled
($225,000) which includes amortization charges for deferred financing fees
($251,000), amortized discounts against certain debt issuances in connection
with conversion privileges ($649,000), liquidated damages for settlement of debt
covenants ($214,000) and settlement expenses in connection with debt issuances
($290,000), offset by an increase in revaluation income of $1.4 million for
warrant and conversion privileges being revalued at the end of the reporting
period. During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2005, we recorded
other income and expenses of ($2.8 million) which included charges for deferred
financing fees ($773,000), amortized discounts against certain debt issuances in
connection with conversion privileges ($1..8 million), and settlement expenses
of ($281,000), partially offset by revaluation income of $68,000.
Loss Attributable to
Common Shareholders
Loss attributable to
common shareholders for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was
approximately $(6.2) million compared with a loss of $(11.6) million for the
same period in 2005. The decrease is in part to the recording of stock option
expenses of approximately $1.1 million in 2005, compared with $76,000 in the
current period, and other income and expenses (net) in the twelve months ended
December 31, 2005 of approximately $2.8 million compared with $225,000 in 2006.
Additionally, we recorded revaluation income of $1.4 million in 2006 compared
with $68,000 in 2005 in connection with the repricing of warrant and conversion
privileges of convertible debenture issues and of warrant conversion prices. We
also wrote down the remaining Filco advance of $2.0 million during 2006,
compared with an impairment of $4.7 million in 2005, along with approximately
$300,000 of deemed dividend expense in each year.
Research
and Development
We
incurred $519,134 and $544,933 in research and development expenses during the
year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Research and development
activities during fiscal 2005 primarily involved continued testing and
evaluation of omni-directional components and preparing these components for
production in 2005. Our wheel design was changed from the "concept" to
"production" phase. This was and is an ongoing process between our Company and a
vendor’s engineers to insure manufacturability. The motors and controllers were
designed and/or changed in design in order to meet ANSI (American National
Standards Institute) and UL (Underwriters Laboratories) testing requirements.
Danaher and we revised the algorithms used in the motor
controllers as well the microprocessor that runs the machines. Research and
development activities also included further changes to existing designs and new
designs that were patented or for those patents with pending applications.
Portions of the costs we incurred due to testing and research and development
were charged to the US Navy contract as provided therein.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Since our
inception, we have financed our operations through the private placement of our
common stock and sales of convertible debt. During the twelve months ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, we raised net of offering costs approximately $1.3
million and $5.9 million, respectively, from the private placement of our
securities.
During
2000, we were approved by the State of New Jersey for our technology tax
transfer program pursuant to which we could sell our net operating losses and
research and development credits as calculated under state law. In the years
2006 and 2005, we recorded credits of $493,258 and $867,413, respectively, from
the sale of our losses and credits.
We have
consistently demonstrated our ability to meet our cash requirements through
private placements of our common stock and convertible notes. We have continued
to similarly satisfy those requirements during the twelve months ended December
31, 2006. However, there can be no assurances that we will be successful in
raising the required capital to continue our current operating
plan.
We
anticipate that our cash requirements for the foreseeable future will be
significant. In particular, management expects substantial expenditures for
inventory, product production, and advertising with production of its
Omni-Directional lift truck and the start of Cobra and King Cobra
(Scissors-Lift) production.
We will
require additional funds to continue our operations beyond the initial
production run. We anticipate that operating capital in the amount of
approximately $3 to 5 million will be required during the next 12 months to
sufficiently fund operations. We expect to recognize lower per unit
manufacturing and part costs in the future due to volume discounts, as well as
lower per unit shipping costs as we transition from the initial rate to
larger-scale production. While we are in discussions with several prospective
lenders, we do not currently have commitments for additional funds and there can
be no assurance that additional financing will be available, or if available,
will be on acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during
the next six months we will further reduce the size of our organization and may
be forced to reduce and/or curtail our production and operations, all of which
could have a material adverse impact on our business prospects.
As a
result of our liquidity issues, we have experienced delays in the repayment of
certain promissory notes upon maturity and payments to vendors and others. If in
the future, the holders of our promissory notes may demand repayment of
principal and accrued interest instead of electing to extend the due date and if
we are unable to repay our debt when due because of our liquidity issues, we may
be forced to refinance these notes on terms less favorable to us than the
existing notes, seek protection under the federal bankruptcy laws or be forced
into an involuntary bankruptcy filing.
As
of December 31, 2006, our working capital deficit was $1,225,143. Fixed assets,
net of accumulated depreciation were $283,920, and total assets, as of December
31, 2006, were $3,017,404. Current liabilities as of December 31, 2006 were
$3,676,558 compared with total liabilities of $4,208,100.
As
of December 31, 2005, our working capital was $299,940. Fixed assets, net of
accumulated depreciation was $190,893, and total assets, as of December 31, 2005
were $5,489,101. Current liabilities as of December 31, 2005 were $2,959,663
compared with total liabilities of $4,298,188.
As
of January 1, 2005, our working capital deficit was $572,184. Fixed assets, net
of accumulated depreciation were $93,587, and total assets, as of December 31,
2005 were $4,600,023. Current and total liabilities as of December 31, 2004 were
$2,291,153.
February
2007 Financing
On
February 20, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain
accredited and/or qualified institutional investors pursuant to which we sold an
aggregate of $3,734,040 principal amount secured convertible debentures
convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.45
for an aggregate purchase price of $3,219,000. In addition, we issued to the
investors (i) warrants to purchase 8,297,866 shares of our common stock at an
exercise price equal to $0.54 per share, which represents 100% of the number of
shares issuable upon conversion of the debentures; (ii) callable warrants to
purchase 4,148,933 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to
$0.75 per share, which represents 50% of the number of shares issuable upon
conversion of the debentures; and (iii) callable warrants to purchase 4,148,933
shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.25 per share, which
represents 50% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the
debentures.
The
debentures mature on February 20, 2009. We may in our discretion redeem the
debentures, subject to certain equity conditions being met by us as set forth in
the debentures, at a price equal to 150% of the principal balance, accrued
interest, and all liquidated damages, if any, thereon that are requested to be
redeemed. Our obligations under the securities purchase agreement, the
debentures and the additional definitive agreements with respect to this
transaction are secured by all of our assets. In addition, our wholly owned
subsidiaries, Airtrax Financial Services LLC and Airtrax Manufacturing Corp.,
which are non-operating entities, are guaranteeing the satisfaction
of our obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement , the
debentures and the additional definitive agreements with respect to this
transaction.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We do not
have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a
current or future effect on our financial condition, revenue, results of
operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
Liquidated
Damages
In
connection with financings we entered into with various investors in November
2004 and October 2005, we provided such investors registration rights. Pursuant
to those registration rights, in the event that we did not file a registration
statement by a certain date registering for resale shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of their securities or have such registration statement
effective by another date, we agreed to pay to such investors liquidated
damages. To date, we have not filed such registration statement, and as a
result, we have accrued the required obligation for liquidated
damages.
During
2006, we issued to the investors in the November 2004 financing, an
aggregate principal amount of $198,248 in our 4% Unsecured
Convertible Debentures and 5 year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 72,201
shares of our common stock in exchange for the settlement of $244,632 in accrued
liquidated damages through June 30, 2006. The debentures mature on March 1,
2008, and September 30, 2008, respectively, pay simple interest at a rate of 4%
per annum and are convertible into shares of our common stock at a price equal
to $ 1.56 per share. The warrants are exercisable into shares of our
common stock at a price equal to $ 1.75 per share. In addition, the
investors agreed to forego any future accrual and payment of such liquidated
damages.
In July
2006 we issued 2% Unsecured Convertible Debentures to the investors in the
October 2005 financing, aggregating $359,549 and Stock Purchase Warrants to
acquire 110,808 shares of our common stock at $ 1.56 per share, in full
settlement of liquidated damages resulting from our not filing a registration
statement by a certain date registering for resale shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of their securities. The conversion price of the shares
underlying the note was $ 1.75 . In addition, the investors agreed
to forego any future accrual and payment of such liquidated
damages.
Critical Accounting
Policies and Estimates
Intangibles
We
incurred costs to acquire certain patent rights. These costs are capitalized and
are being amortized over a period of fifteen years on a straight line basis.
We
continually evaluate whether events and changes in circumstances warrant revised
estimates of useful lives or recognition of an impairment loss of our
intangibles, which as of December 31, 2006, consisted mainly of patents and
licensing agreements. The conditions that would trigger an impairment assessment
of our intangible assets include a significant, sustained negative trend in our
operating results or cash flows, a decrease in demand for our products, a change
in the competitive environment and other industry and economic factors.
Deferred Financing
Costs
Deferred financing
costs represent legal, commitment; processing, consulting, and other fees
associated with the issuance of our debt. Deferred financing costs are being
amortized over the term of the related debt.
Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets
Pursuant to Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, we continually
monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts
of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized
when expected cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value. Accordingly,
when indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate the carrying value of
such assets in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted
cash flows of the underlying assets. Our policy is to record an impairment loss
when it is determined that the carrying amount of the asset may not be
recoverable. Impairment charges of $2,000,000 were recorded for the year ended
December 31, 2006, while impairment charges of $4,700,839 were recorded for the
year ended December 31, 2005 related to the write down of the Filco
advances .
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ
from those estimated.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue on product
sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, such as
when a purchase order or contract is received from the customer, the price is
fixed, title to the goods has changed and there is a reasonable assurance of
collection of the sales proceeds. We obtain written purchase authorizations from
customers for a specified amount of product at a specified price and consider
delivery to have occurred at the time of shipment. Revenue is recognized at
shipment, and where the following criteria are met; persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the sales price is fixed or
determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenue from services
is recognized when the service is performed, and where the following criteria
are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the contract price is
fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from
research and development activities relating to firm fixed-price contracts is
generally recognized as billing occurs. Revenue from research and development
activities relating to cost-plus-fee contracts include costs incurred plus a
portion of estimated fees or profits based on the relationship of costs incurred
to total estimated costs. Contract costs include all direct material and labor
costs and an allocation of allowable indirect costs as defined by each contract,
as periodically adjusted to reflect revised agreed upon rates. These rates are
subject to audit by the other party. Amounts can be billed on a bi-monthly
basis. Billing is based on subjective cost investment factors.
Accounting for Income
Taxes
As
part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to
estimate our income taxes. This process involves estimating our actual current
tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences
may result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our
consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred
tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If there is not
persuasive evidence that recovery will occur, we would establish a valuation
allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this
allowance in a period, the value of the benefit of the tax deferral is reduced
or eliminated.
Significant management
judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred
tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net
deferred tax assets. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $8,257,629 as of
December 31, 2006, due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize some
of our deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of certain net operating losses
carried forward before they expire and certain accrued expenses, which are
deferred for income tax purposes until paid. The valuation allowance is based on
our estimates of taxable income and the period over which our deferred tax
assets will be recoverable. The net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2006
was $ 919,889, net of the valuation allowance.
Accounting for
Derivatives
Our
issuances of convertible debt were accompanied by other financial instruments.
These financial instruments include warrants to purchase stock, and the right to
convert debt to stock at specified rates (“conversion benefits”). Pursuant to
SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS
133),
and EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, A
Company’s Own Stock (EITF 00-19), we have identified certain embedded and
freestanding derivative instruments. Generally, where the ability to physical or
“net-share” settle an embedded conversion option or free standing financial
instrument is not deemed to be within our control, the embedded conversion
option is required to be bifurcated or separated, and both the freestanding
instruments and bifurcated conversion feature are accounted for as derivative
liabilities. At each reporting date, we estimate the fair values of all
derivatives, and changes in the fair value are reported in the statement of
operations.
Under EITF 00-19,
warrants are considered free-standing instruments in that they are legally
detachable and separately exercisable. The conversion benefits, which are
embedded in these debt issues, derive value from the relationship between the
stock price and debt conversion price, and are considered embedded derivatives
under the provisions of SFAS 133. The fair values of both the warrants and
conversion benefits are calculated using a Black -Scholes Model, taking into
consideration factors such as the underlying price of the common stock, the
exercise price for warrants or the conversion price for the conversion benefit,
the stock volatility, and the risk-free interest rates available for comparable
time periods.
Free-standing
instruments (warrants), and embedded derivatives (conversion benefits) which are
initially bifurcated or separated from the host financial instrument, are
recorded as separate liabilities, in cases where the security holder has a right
to choose to receive a “net settlement” of cash. The identification of such net
settlement provisions in one such prior convertible debt issuance with warrants
resulted in us concluding that such warrants should have been identified as
“derivatives”. Therefore, the warrant liability related to this issuance must be
recorded as a derivative liability on our restated balance sheet, and marked to
market for each subsequent reporting period with any non-cash charges or credits
attributed to the revised fair value of the liability being recognized through
the statement of operations.
If
the decision to settle an outstanding liability remains with us, the value of
the warrants is recorded in an equity account. The identification of settlement
provisions being controlled by us under certain debt issuances resulted in us
determining that the securities should be reflected in the restated financial
statements as components of equity, as compared to having been previously
recorded as liabilities with non-cash charges and/or credits to operations as a
result of being marked to market for each period presented. As of December 31,
2006 and 2005, we recognized and recorded the value of certain warrants as
equity of $2,315,935 and $2,051,118, respectively, in the accompanying
financials.
EITF 00-19-2
specifies that the contingent obligations to make future payments or otherwise
transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued
as a separate agreement, or included as a provision of a financial instrument or
other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with
SFAS No. 5, “Accounting
for Contingencies” (SFAS 5). EITF 00-19-2 also requires additional
disclosure regarding the nature of any registration payment arrangements,
alternative settlement methods, the maximum potential amount of consideration
and the current carrying amount of the liability, if any. We adopted the
provisions of EITF 00-19-2 for the reporting period beginning January 1,
2007.
We
also previously sold stock units which included warrants along with common
stock. In these cases, a portion of the proceeds equal to the value of the
warrants is allocated to the warrants with the balance allocated to the stock.
In such cases, the values of the warrants are treated as liabilities or equity,
depending on whether the issuance documents contain “net cash settlement”
provisions. For those warrants that are treated as liabilities, the liabilities
are revalued at the end of each reporting period with any change in value being
recognized currently as a non-cash charge and/or credit to operations. When a
warrant classified as a liability is exercised or canceled, the fair value of
the warrant, as determined at the time of exercise or cancellation, is
transferred to equity and is no longer revalued. A similar adjustment is made
for a conversion benefit classified as a liability when the debt is converted to
stock, or canceled.
For
embedded and free standing derivatives valued as of December 31, 2006 and 2005,
we have recognized in the statement of operations, revaluation income of
$1,412,143 and $68,481, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and
2005. In addition, we recognized a derivative liability in the accompanying
balance sheet for conversion benefits and warrants of $236,144 in 2006 and
$1,620,683 in 2005.
To
the extent that the initial fair values of the bifurcated and/or freestanding
derivative liabilities exceed the net proceeds received, an immediate charge to
the statement of operations is recognized for the excess. The remainder of the
discount from the face value of the convertible debt resulting from allocating
part or all of the proceeds to the derivative liabilities is amortized over the
life of the instrument through periodic charges to the statements of operations,
using the straight line method, which was the most systematic and rational
approach that approximated the interest method of amortization due to the short
two year amortization term of the debt.
Stock
Based Compensation
Common Stock for
Services
Because of the
significant liquidity issues we have faced since our inception, we have issued
common stock to third party vendors and others in return for product, services,
and as dividends on the preferred stock. These issuances are assigned values
equal to the value of the common stock on the earlier of the dates of issuance
or the date on which a commitment is made to provide compensation in the form of
equity securities, whichever date is earlier. Such issuances are recorded as
expenses in the periods in which the stock is issued, unless the right to the
stock has not fully vested, in which case the expense is recorded in the periods
of vesting. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, we issued an
aggregate of 871,257 and 330,895 shares, respectively, of common stock
representing a value of services of $1,197,826 and $836,500, respectively, to
third parties in exchange for services performed.
We
have issued warrants both as part of “stock units”, and as an integral part of
convertible note issues. The value of the warrants and conversion options which
are classified as liabilities are revalued each reporting period. These values
are determined by a Black-Scholes Model. Most of these issuances contain
Registration Payment Arrangements (RPAs), which impose liquidated damages under
certain circumstances. EITF 00-19-2 specifies the accounting treatment for
derivatives that contain RPA’s and provides guidance on accounting for potential
obligations of the RPA’s. The accounting treatment of derivatives will not
change as a result of EITF 00-19-2 as the “RPAs” were not the sole determining
factor in prior decisions about derivative classification. Each of these
warrants is exercisable over five year periods from dates of issuance at prices
ranging from $0.45-$1.56 per share. See Note 4 - Capitalization for
additional information.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncement
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has recently issued FASB Staff
Position EITF 00-19-2 which modifies the accounting treatment of derivatives
that flow from financings involving embedded derivatives. This Staff Position is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning January 1, 2007.
Management believes that this will cause some change in the way we account for
derivatives. Management is evaluating this position and has not made a
determination as to the effective it will have on our financial
statements.
The
Company has reviewed other accounting pronouncements issued during 2006, and has
concluded that they will have no effect on our financials
statements.
RISK
FACTORS
In
addition to other information contained in this Form 10-KSB, the following Risk
Factors should be considered when evaluating the forward-looking statements
contained in this Form 10-KSB:
RISKS
RELATED TO OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND BUSINESS
WE
MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE AND CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN BECAUSE WE HAVE HAD
LOSSES SINCE OUR INCEPTION.
We may
never become profitable because we have incurred losses and experienced negative
operating cash flow since our formation. For our fiscal years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005, we had a net loss attributable to common stockholders of
approximately $ 6.2 million and $ 11.7 million, respectively.
We expect to continue to incur significant expenses. Our operating expenses have
been and are expected to continue to outpace revenues and result in significant
losses in the near term. We anticipate that our cash requirements to fund
operating or investing cash requirements over the next 12 months will be greater
than our current cash on hand. We may never be able to reduce these losses,
which will require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. We do not
currently have commitments for additional funds and there can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on
acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next 12
months we will further reduce the size of our organization and may be forced to
reduce and/or curtail our production and operations, all of which could have a
material adverse impact on our business prospects.
OUR
BUSINESS OPERATIONS WILL BE HARMED IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL
FUNDING.
Our
business operations will be harmed if we are unable to obtain additional
funding. We do not know if additional financing will be available when needed,
or if it is available, if it will be available on acceptable terms. Insufficient
funds may prevent us from implementing our business strategy or may require us
to delay, scale back or eliminate certain opportunities for the provision of our
technology and products.
THE
PRICING POLICY FOR OUR LIFT TRUCKS MAY BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE, AND ACTUAL SALES OR
OPERATING MARGINS MAY BE LESS THAN PROJECTED.
We are
assessing present and projected component pricing in order to establish a
pricing policy for the SIDEWINDER Lift Truck. We have not finalized our
assessment as current prices for certain lift truck components reflect special
development charges, which are expected to be reduced as order volume for such
components increase and as manufacturing efficiencies improve. We intend to
price our lift trucks so as to maximize sales yet provide sufficient operating
margins. Given the uniqueness of our product, we have not yet established final
pricing sensitivity in the market. Consequently, the pricing policy for its lift
trucks may be subject to change, and actual sales or operating margins may be
less than projected.
WE
HAVE RECEIVED LIMITED INDICATIONS OF THE COMMERCIAL ACCEPTABILITY OF OUR
OMNI-DIRECTIONAL LIFT TRUCK. ACCORDINGLY, WE CANNOT PREDICT WHETHER OUR
OMNI-DIRECTIONAL PRODUCTS CAN BE MARKETED AND SOLD IN A COMMERCIAL
MANNER.
Our
success will be dependent upon our ability to sell Omni-Directional products in
quantities sufficient to yield profitable results. To date, we have received
limited indications of the commercial acceptability of our Omni-Directional lift
truck. Accordingly, we cannot predict whether the Omni-Directional product can
be marketed and sold in a commercial manner.
WE
CANNOT ASSURE THAT WE WILL HAVE IN PLACE PATENT PROTECTION AND CONFIDENTIALITY
AGREEMENTS FOR OUR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY. IF WE DO NOT ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, THERE IS A RISK THAT THEY WILL BE INFRINGED UPON
OR THAT OUR TECHNOLOGY INFRINGES UPON ONE OF OUR COMPETITOR'S PATENTS. AS A
RESULT, WE MAY EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF REVENUE AND OUR OPERATIONS MAY BE MATERIALLY
HARMED.
Our
success will be dependent, in part, upon the protection of our proprietary
Omni-Directional technology from competitive use. A form of our Omni-Directional
technology was originally patented in 1973 and was sold to the US Navy. We
secured a transfer of this technology from the Navy in 1996 under the terms of a
CRADA agreement (Cooperative Research and Development Agreement) and we have
worked since that time to commercialize Omni-Directional products. We received 3
patents regarding the "redesign" of the wheel. In addition, we have a license
agreements for the algorithms used to control vehicular movement, and a patent
for this technology has been applied for. Further, we have applied for patents
for a movable operator's control station and a munitions handler.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we believe our lack of patent protection is a
material competitive risk. Our competitors could reverse engineer our technology
to build similar products. Also, certain variations to the technology could be
made whereby our competitors may use the technology without infringing upon our
intellectual property.
The
patent for the Omni-Directional wheel expired in 1990. We, however, have
received patent protection of certain other aspects of its Omni-Directional
wheel, and for features specific to our lift truck. In addition to the patent
applications, we rely on a combination of trade secrets, nondisclosure
agreements and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property
rights. Nevertheless, these measures may be inadequate to safeguard our
underlying technology. If these measures do not protect the intellectual
property rights, third parties could use our technology, and our ability to
compete in the market would be reduced significantly. In addition, if the sale
of our product extends to foreign countries, we may not be able to effectively
protect its intellectual property rights in such foreign countries.
In the
future, we may be required to protect or enforce our patents and patent rights
through patent litigation against third parties, such as infringement suits or
interference proceedings. These lawsuits could be expensive, take significant
time, and could divert management's attention from other business concerns.
These actions could put our patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted
narrowly, and any patent applications at risk of not issuing. In defense of any
such action, these third parties may assert claims against us. We cannot provide
any assurance that we will have sufficient funds to vigorously prosecute any
patent litigation, that we will prevail in any of these suits, or that the
damages or other remedies awarded, if any, will be commercially valuable. During
the course of these suits, there may be public announcements of the results of
hearings, motions and other interim proceedings or developments in the
litigation. If securities analysts or investors perceive any of these results to
be negative, it could cause the price of our common stock to
decline.
WE
CURRENTLY LACK ESTABLISHED DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS FOR OUR LIFT TRUCK PRODUCT
LINE.
We do not
have an established channel of distribution for our lift truck product line. We
have initiated efforts to establish a network of designated dealers throughout
the United States. Although we have received indications of interest from a
number of equipment distributors, to date, such indications have been limited.
We cannot predict whether we will be successful in establishing our intended
dealer network.
IF
WE ARE UNABLE TO RETAIN THE SERVICES OF ROBERT WATSON, OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE
OFFICER, OR IF WE ARE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY RECRUIT, QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, WE
MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OPERATIONS.
Our
ability to successfully conduct our business affairs will be dependent upon the
capabilities and business acumen of current management including Robert Watson,
our President and Chief Executive Officer. We have entered into an employment
agreement with Mr. Watson; however, we do not maintain key man life insurance
with respect to Mr. Watson. Accordingly, shareholders must be willing to entrust
all aspects of our business affairs to our current management. Further, the loss
of any one of our management team could have a material adverse impact on our
continued operation.
OUR
INDUSTRY AND PRODUCTS ARE CONSIDERED TO BE HIGH-RISK WITH A HIGH INCIDENCE OF
SERIES PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY LOSS WHICH COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE
IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS.
The
manufacture, sale and use of Omni-Directional lift trucks and other mobility or
material handling equipment is generally considered to be an industry of a high
risk with a high incidence of serious personal injury or property loss. In
addition, although we intend to provide on-site safety demonstrations, the
unique, sideways movement of the lift truck may heighten potential safety risks.
Despite the fact that we intend to maintain sufficient liability insurance for
the manufacture and use of our products, one or more incidents of personal
injury or property loss resulting from the operation of our products could have
a material adverse impact on our business.
IF
WE DO NOT SUCCESSFULLY DISTINGUISH AND COMMERCIALIZE OUR DEVELOPED PROPRIETARY
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, WE WILL NOT ATTRACT A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS.
ACCORDINGLY, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY WITH OUR COMPETITORS OR TO
GENERATE REVENUE SIGNIFICANT TO SUSTAIN OUR OPERATIONS.
Although
management believes our product will have significant competitive advantages to
conventional lift trucks, we are competing in an industry populated by some of
the foremost equipment and vehicle manufacturers in the world. All of these
companies have greater financial, engineering and other resources than us. No
assurances can be given that any advances or developments made by such companies
will not supersede the competitive advantages of our Omni-Directional lift
truck. In addition, many of our competitors have long-standing arrangements with
equipment distributors and carry one or more of competitive products in addition
to lift trucks. These distributors are prospective dealers for our company. It
therefore is conceivable that some distributors may be loath to enter into any
relationships with us for fear of jeopardizing existing relationships with one
or more competitors.
RISKS
RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
WE
HAVE ISSUED COMMON STOCK, WARRANTS, AND CONVERTIBLE NOTES TO INVESTORS AND IN
EXCHANGE FOR FEES AND SERVICES AT A DISCOUNT TO THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON
STOCK AT THE TIME OF SUCH ISSUANCE. THIS RESULTS IN A LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES
WHICH HAVE BEEN ISSUED AND A LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES UNDERLYING OUR WARRANTS AND
OTHER CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES THAT ARE OR MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE AND
THE SALE OF THESE SHARES MAY DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON
STOCK.
We had
24,376,887 shares of common stock outstanding as of April 12, 2007, and we had
convertible notes which require the issuance of 5,336,740 additional shares of
common stock pursuant to our May and October 2005 private placements
and July 2006 note issuances, in which the conversion price has
been adjusted resulting from the February 20, 2007 issuance of $3,734,040
Secured Convertible Promissory Notes, convertible into 8,297,867 additional
shares of common stock at $0.45 per common share. Additionally, warrants which
require the issuance of 10,494,131 additional shares of common stock pursuant to
our November 2004, and February, May, and October 2005 private placements and
2006 note issuances. Further, we issued 16,959,726 warrants in connection with
the February 20, 2007 issuance of $3,734,040 Secured Convertible Promissory
Notes. Further, we often issue common stock and warrants in exchange for fees
and services at a discount to the market price of our common stock at the time
of such issuance. This results in a large number of shares, which have been
issued, a large number of shares underlying our warrants and other convertible
securities that are or may be available for future sale, and may create an
overhang of securities for sale. The sale of these shares which were or will be
issued upon exercise or conversion of our securities at a discount to the market
price of our common stock at the time of issuance may depress the market price
of our common stock and is dilutive to shareholder value.
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE "PENNY STOCK" RULES OF THE SEC AND THE TRADING
MARKET IN OUR SECURITIES IS LIMITED, WHICH MAKES TRANSACTIONS IN OUR STOCK
CUMBERSOME AND MAY REDUCE THE VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR STOCK.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the
definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity
security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an
exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For
any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules
require:
o that a
broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks;
and
o the
broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the
transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be
purchased.
In order
to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or
dealer must:
o obtain
financial information and investment experience objectives of the person;
and
o make a
reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for
that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial
matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny
stocks.
The
broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a
disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock
market, which, in highlight form:
o sets
forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and
o that
the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor
prior to the transaction.
Generally,
brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the
"penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of
our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our
stock.
Disclosure
also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public
offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the
broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the
securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of
fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent
disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and
information on the limited market in penny stocks.

Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board
of Directors and Shareholders
Airtrax,
Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheet of Airtrax, Inc. (the "Company") as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005 (both as restated) and the
related statements of operations, changes in stock holders'
deficiency and cash flows for the two years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005 (both as restated). These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate under the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, based on our audits, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Airtrax, Inc. as of
December 31, 2006 and 2005 (both as restated), and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005 (both as restated) in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
As
detailed in Note 2 to the financial statements, factors were discovered which
caused restatements of the financial statements for the years ended December 31,
2005 and December 31, 2006, and for the restatement of the stockholders’ equity
section of the balance sheet as of January 1, 2005.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial
statements, at December 31, 2006, the Company had a working capital deficiency
of $ 1.2 million as well as an accumulated deficit of $ 26.4
million. In addition, the Company has had a continuing record of losses. These
factors among other things discussed in the notes to the financial
statements, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue
as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or
the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the
Company be unable to continue in operation.

statements.
NOTE 1- SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
accompanying audited financial statements have been prepared on the accrual
basis of accounting in conformity to generally accepted accounting principles in
the United States.
Business
The
Company was formed April 17, 1997. It has designed a lift truck vehicle using
omni-directional technology obtained under a contract with the United States
Navy Surface Warfare Center in Panama City, Florida. The right to exploit this
technology grew out of a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the
Navy. Significant resources have been devoted during prior years to the
construction of a prototype of this omni-directional forklift vehicle. The
Company recognized its first revenues from sales of this product during the year
2005.
Development
Stage Accounting
In prior
periods the Company was a development stage company, as defined in Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 7 (SFAS 7). The Company became an
operational company in 2005.
The
Company has incurred losses since its inception. Until the end of 2004, these
losses were financed by private placements of equity securities. During 2005 and
2006, the Company obtained financing almost exclusively from the issuance of
convertible debentures. The Company will need to raise additional capital
through the issuance of debt or equity securities to continue to fund
operations.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers cash deposits and short term debt securities that can be
redeemed on demand and investments that have original maturities of less than
three months to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable, and the related security
issuances. The recorded values of these financial instruments
approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The
recorded values of notes payable approximate their fair values, as interest
approximates market rates.
Concentrations of
Credit Risk
Financial instruments
subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. The Company
places its cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality
institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of
applicable government mandated insurance limits. With respect to
accounts receivable, the Company limits credit risk by performing ongoing credit
evaluations. Management does not believe significant risk exists in
connection with the Company’s concentrations of credit at December 31, 2006.
Accounts Receivable
The
Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts (when necessary) equal to
the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company’s estimate is based
on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade
accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s
estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. As of
December 31, 2006 and 2005, there were no allowances for doubtful accounts.
Inventories
Inventory consists
principally of component parts and supplies used to assemble lift truck
vehicles. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first
in-first out basis) or market.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets,
consisting of office furniture and equipment, demo and shop equipment along with
castings and tools, are recorded at cost. The cost of developing and
constructing the prototype omni-directional helicopter handling vehicle and the
omni-directional lift truck vehicle is expensed as incurred. Expenditures for
major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements,
maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When
property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and
accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or
loss is included in the results of operations for the respective
period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets ranging from 5 to 7 years using the straight-line method
for financial statement purposes.
Intangibles
The
Company incurred costs to acquire certain patent rights. These costs are
capitalized and are being amortized over a period of fifteen years on a straight
line basis.
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,
“Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets,” the Company reviews intangibles for
impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company's
business enterprise below its carrying value. The impairment test requires the
Company to estimate the fair value of the Company's overall business enterprise
down to the reporting unit level. The Company performs its annual impairment
test in its fiscal fourth quarter. No impairment charges related to goodwill or
other intangibles were recorded in the years ended December 31, 2006 and
2005.
The
Company continually evaluates whether events and changes in circumstances
warrant revised estimates of useful lives or recognition of an impairment loss
of our intangibles, which as of December 31, 2006, consist mainly of patents and
licensing agreements. The conditions that would trigger an impairment
assessment of our intangible assets include a significant, sustained negative
trend in our operating results or cash flows, a decrease in demand for our
products, a change in the competitive environment and other industry and
economic factors.
Deferred Financing
Costs
Deferred financing
costs represent legal, commitment; processing, consulting, and other fees
associated with the issuance of the Company’s debt. Deferred
financing costs are being amortized over the term of the related debt.
Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets
Pursuant to Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, the Company
continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate
carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss
is recognized when expected cash flows are less than the asset's carrying value.
Accordingly, when indicators of impairment are present, the Company evaluates
the carrying value of such assets in relation to the operating performance and
future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying assets. The Company’s policy is
to record an impairment loss when it is determined that the carrying amount of
the asset may not be recoverable. Impairment charges of $2,000,000 were recorded
for the year ended December 31, 2006, while impairment charges of $4,700,839
were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2005 related to the write down of
the Filco advances.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ
from those estimated.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue on product
sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, such as
when a purchase order or contract is received from the customer, the price is
fixed, title to the goods has changed and there is a reasonable assurance of
collection of the sales proceeds. The Company obtains written purchase
authorizations from customers for a specified amount of product at a specified
price and considers delivery to have occurred at the time of shipment. Revenue
is recognized at shipment, and where the following criteria are met; persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred; the sales price is
fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenue from services
is recognized when the service is performed, and where the following criteria
are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the contract price is
fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from
research and development activities relating to firm fixed-price contracts is
generally recognized as billing occurs. Revenue from research and development
activities relating to cost-plus-fee contracts include costs incurred plus a
portion of estimated fees or profits based on the relationship of costs incurred
to total estimated costs. Contract costs include all direct material and labor
costs and an allocation of allowable indirect costs as defined by each contract,
as periodically adjusted to reflect revised agreed upon rates. These rates are
subject to audit by the other party. Amounts can be billed on a bi-monthly
basis. Billing is based on subjective cost investment factors.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are
expensed as incurred. There were no advertising costs incurred during
2006 and 2005.
Accounting for Income
Taxes
As
part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to
estimate our income taxes. This process involves estimating our actual current
tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences
may result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our
consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred
tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If there is not
persuasive evidence that recovery will occur, we would establish a valuation
allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this
allowance in a period, the value of the benefit of the tax deferral is reduced
or eliminated.
Significant management
judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred
tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net
deferred tax assets. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $8,257,629 as of
December 31, 2006, due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize some
of our deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of certain net operating losses
carried forward before they expire and certain accrued expenses, which are
deferred for income tax purposes until paid. The valuation allowance is based on
our estimates of taxable income and the period over which our deferred tax
assets will be recoverable. The net deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2006
was $ 919,889, net of the valuation allowance.
Accounting for
Derivatives
The Company’s issuances
of convertible debt are accompanied by other financial instruments. These
financial instruments include warrants to purchase stock, and the right to
convert debt to stock at specified rates (“conversion benefits.”). Pursuant to
SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended (SFAS
133),
and EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, A
Company’s Own Stock (EITF 00-19), the Company has identified
certain embedded and freestanding derivative instruments. Generally, where the
ability to physical or “net-share” settle an embedded conversion option or free
standing financial instrument is not deemed to be within the control of the
Company, the embedded conversion option is required to be bifurcated or
separated, and both the freestanding instruments and bifurcated conversion
feature are accounted for as derivative liabilities. At each reporting date, the
Company estimates the fair values of all derivatives, and changes in the fair
value are reported in the statement of operations.
Under EITF 00-19,
warrants are considered free-standing instruments in that they are legally
detachable and separately exercisable. The conversion benefits, which are
embedded in these debt issues, derive value from the relationship between the
stock price and debt conversion price, and are considered embedded derivatives
under the provisions of SFAS 133. The fair values of both the warrants and
conversion benefits are calculated using a Black Scholes Model, taking into
consideration factors such as the underlying price of the common stock, the
exercise price for warrants or the conversion price for the conversion benefit,
the stock volatility, and the risk-free interest rates available for comparable
time periods.
Free-standing
instruments (warrants), and embedded derivatives (conversion benefits) which are
initially bifurcated or separated from the host financial instrument, are
recorded as separate liabilities, in cases where the security holder has a right
to choose to receive a “net settlement” of cash. The identification of such net
settlement provisions in one such prior convertible debt issuance with warrants
resulted in the Company concluding that such warrants should have been
identified as “derivatives”. Therefore, the warrant liability related
to this issuance must be recorded as a derivative liability on the Company’s
restated balance sheet, and marked to market for each subsequent reporting
period with any non-cash charges or credits attributed to the revised fair value
of the liability being recognized through the statement of operations.
If the decision to
settle an outstanding liability remains with the Company, the value of the
warrants is recorded in an equity account. The identification of settlement
provisions being controlled by the Company under certain debt issuances resulted
in the Company determining that the securities should be reflected in the
restated financial statements as components of equity, as compared to having
been previously recorded as liabilities with non-cash charges and/or credits to
operations as a result of being marked to market for each period
presented. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company recognized
and recorded the value of certain warrants as equity of $2,315,935 and
$2,051,118, respectively, in the accompanying financials.
EITF 00-19-2
specifies that the contingent obligations to make future payments or otherwise
transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued
as a separate agreement, or included as a provision of a financial instrument or
other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with
SFAS No. 5, “Accounting
for Contingencies” (SFAS 5). EITF 00-19-2 also requires
additional disclosure regarding the nature of any registration payment
arrangements, alternative settlement methods, the maximum potential amount of
consideration and the current carrying amount of the liability, if any. The
Company adopted the provisions of EITF 00-19-2 for the reporting period
beginning January 1, 2007..
The
Company also previously sold stock units which included warrants along with
common stock. In these cases, a portion of the proceeds equal to the value of
the warrants is allocated to the warrants with the balance allocated to the
stock. In such cases, the values of the warrants are treated as liabilities or
equity, depending on whether the issuance documents contain “net cash
settlement” provisions. For those warrants that are treated as
liabilities, the liabilities are revalued at the end of each reporting period
with any change in value being recognized currently as a non-cash charge and/or
credit to operations. When a warrant classified as a liability is exercised or
canceled, the fair value of the warrant, as determined at the time of exercise
or cancellation, is transferred to equity and is no longer revalued. A similar
adjustment is made for a conversion benefit classified as a liability when the
debt is converted to stock, or canceled.
For
embedded and free standing derivatives valued as of December 31, 2006
and 2005, the Company has recognized in the statement of operations, revaluation
income <expense> of $ 1,412,143
and $ 68,481, respectively, for the years ended December
31, 2006 and 2005. In addition, the Company recognized a derivative liability in
the accompanying balance sheet for conversion benefits and warrants of $236,144
in 2006 and $1,620,683 in 2005.
To
the extent that the initial fair values of the bifurcated and/or freestanding
derivative liabilities exceed the net proceeds received, an immediate charge to
the statement of operations is recognized for the excess. The remainder of the
discount from the face value of the convertible debt resulting from allocating
part or all of the proceeds to the derivative liabilities is amortized over the
life of the instrument through periodic charges to the statements of operations,
using the straight line method, which was the most systematic and rational
approach that approximated the interest method of amortization due to the short
two year amortization term of the debt.
The
estimated fair values of derivatives have been calculated based on the
Black-Scholes Model, using the following assumptions as of December 31:

Stock
Based Compensation
Common
Stock for Services
Because of the
significant liquidity issues the Company has faced since our inception, the
Company has issued common stock to third party vendors and others in return for
product, services, and as dividends on the preferred stock. These issuances are
assigned values equal to the value of the common stock on the earlier of the
dates of issuance, or the dates on which a commitment is made to provide
compensation in the form of equity securities, whichever date is earlier. Such
issuances are recorded as expenses in the periods in which the stock is issued,
unless the right to the stock has not fully vested, in which case the expense is
recorded in the periods of vesting. During the years ended December
31, 2006 and 2005, the Company issued an aggregate of 871,257 and 330,895
shares, respectively, of common stock representing a value of services of
$1,197,826 and $ 836,500, respectively, to third parties in exchange for
services performed.
Stock
Options
Stock options are
awarded to employees as compensation for services. Such awards have been
immediately exercisable. The Company adopted SFAS 123R, “Share
Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), and SFAS 148, “Accounting
for Stock Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure” (SFAS 148) on
January 1, 2006. Prior to 2006, these awards were accounted for under the
intrinsic method as permitted by Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25. Since the time of adopting SFAS 123R, the option awards have
been valued at their grant-date fair value as determined through the use of the
Black Scholes Model.
The
following presents information ($000 omitted) about the net loss and loss per
share of the year 2005, as if the Company had applied the provisions of SFAS
123R and 148 to all options granted during the year 2005.

Warrants
The
Company has issued warrants both as part of “stock units”, and as an integral
part of convertible note issues. The value of the warrants and
conversion options which are classified as liabilities are revalued each
reporting period. These values are determined by a Black Scholes
Model. Most of these issuances contain Registration Payment
Arrangements (RPAs), which impose liquidated damages under certain
circumstances. EITF 00-19-2 specifies the accounting treatment for
derivatives that contain RPA’s and provides guidance on accounting for potential
obligations of the PRA’s. The accounting treatment of derivatives
will not change as a result of EITF 00-19-2 as the “RPAs” were not the sole
determining factor in prior decisions about derivative classification. The
following is a schedule of changes in warrants outstanding through December 31,
2006. Each of these warrants is exercisable over five year periods from
dates of issuance at prices ranging from $0.45-$1.56 per share.
Basic and Diluted Loss
Per Share
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
“Earnings
Per Share” (SFAS 128), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 98 (SAB 98), both basic and diluted earnings/loss per share
(“EPS”) are presented on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed
by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic
EPS, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of
additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential
common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were not
anti-dilutive. The Company has excluded all common stock equivalents arising
from outstanding options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible
debt from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because these securities
are anti-dilutive. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the
Company had approximately 23,055,578 and 20,951,187 weighted average number of
shares, respectively, outstanding and used in both the Basic and Diluted EPS
calculation.
Segment Reporting
Management treats the
operations of the Company as one single segment.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the
2005 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2006
financial statement presentation.
NOTE 2-
RESTATEMENTS
In
conjunction with our independent registered public accounting firm and
professional advisors, the Company conducted an analysis of our various
financial instruments and agreements involving convertible debt and common stock
financings accompanied by warrants, with a particular focus on the
accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), the
Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company’s Own Stock (“EITF 00-19”), and FASB Staff Position
No. EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”
(“EITF 00-19-2”), (collectively, the “Derivative Accounting
Pronouncements”). Accordingly, certain accounting policies we previously
considered to reflect what was deemed to be appropriate at the time when the
financings were previously reported, have been modified by recent
interpretations, including the Derivative Accounting Pronouncements.
On
November 2, 2007, as a result of this analysis, the Company filed a
Form 8-K noting that its previously filed financial statements in the
annual reports for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006 filed on
Form 10-KSB, together with the quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB for the quarters
ending March 31, 2005, June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005, March 31, 2006,
June 30, 2006, September 30, 2006, March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007 and September
30, 2007(collectively, the “Reports”) could no longer be relied upon. The
Company sent a formal letter request to the Office of the Chief Accountant (OCA)
of the Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) dated December 17,
2007, petitioning the OCA to waive the requirement to file
separate amended and restated Reports for the periods noted above,
and instead, file a comprehensive amended and restated comparative
Form 10-KSB for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, along with certain
comprehensive financial information and disclosures for 2004, and comprehensive
amended and restated comparative Form 10-QSBs for the periods ended
March 31, 2007, June 30, 2007, and September 30, 2007 along with certain
comprehensive financial information and disclosures for 2005. Such waiver was
received from the OCA on December 27, 2007.
The
restatement is required to properly reflect the Company’s financial results for
certain non-cash, and non-operational related charges or credits to earnings
associated with both embedded and freestanding derivative liabilities, and the
accounting for certain derivatives under the control of the issuer due to the
revised interpretation and implementation of the Derivative Accounting
Pronouncements.
The
Company has made adjustments to its accounting records in the restated amounts
to more fully comply with requirements of the Derivative Accounting
Pronouncements, and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dealing with
derivatives. Among these adjustments were reductions in the balances
of derivative liabilities, offset by reductions in the amounts of debt discount,
the amounts of paid in capital-warrants, revaluation income, and common
stock. The adjustments to the common stock were caused by the
elimination of credits to common stock that had resulted principally from the
erroneous recognition of liabilities for conversion privileges upon issuances of
convertible debt. These credits were erroneously transferred to pay
in capital upon debt conversion. Other partial offsets to these
adjustments affected the amounts of amortization expense and paid in
capital-warrants.
The
effects of these changes on the Company’s previously issued audited December 31,
2006 and 2005 financial statements and the related disclosures included
elsewhere in the notes to consolidated financial statements, along with the
comprehensive disclosures of the restated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004,
are as follows:
The

2005 financial

NOTES TO RESTATED
FINANCIALS-2006 and 2005
|
(1)
|
Issuance costs of
debt obligations have been separately reported as a component of assets on
the balance sheet as deferred financing fees. The value of
derivatives and other securities accompanying debt issuances have been
subtracted from the issuance proceeds and the remaining amounts reported
as debt discount which is a component of convertible debt. The
combined total of the issuance costs and the values of derivatives and
other securities accompanying debt issuances are being amortized over the
terms of the related debt. The adoption of this procedure
resulted in adjustments to deferred financing costs and the carrying
amounts of the debt issuances.
|
|
(2)
|
The obligations
for outstanding stock options have been reclassified to paid in
capital.
|
|
(3)
|
As noted above,
the Company has made adjustments to its accounting records to more fully
comply with requirements of the FASB and the SEC dealing with derivatives.
Among these adjustments were reductions in the balances of derivative
liabilities. Offsetting these reductions were reductions in the amounts of
debt discount, the amounts of paid in capital-warrants, and the amounts of
revaluation income; these offsets are further described in others of these
footnotes.
|
|
(4)
|
Among the
adjustments made to comply with the requirements of the FASB and the SEC,
were reductions in the amounts of common stock. These were
caused by the elimination of credits to common stock that had resulted
principally from the erroneous recognition of liabilities for conversion
privileges upon issuances of convertible debt. These credits
were erroneously transferred to paid in capital upon debt
conversion. The 2005 adjustment relates to corrections of these
2005 debt issuances; the adjustment increased in 2006 to give recognition
to corrections of the 2006 issuances. Other partial offsets to
these adjustments affected the amounts of amortization expense.
|
|
(5)
|
Increases in the
amounts of paid in capital-warrants result from adjustments to the
derivative liability account, which treated most warrants as
liabilities. They are now treated as equity. The
2005 adjustment corrects the accounting for the 2005 issuances; the
increase in the adjustment in 2006 reflects correction of the 2006
issuances.
|
|
(6)
|
The changes in
the balances of accumulated deficit are the sum of the adjustments of the
statements of operations ($3,611,759 in the case of 2005), and the
adjustments of the statement of operations of the prior year ($1,219,750
in the case of 2005). In the case of 2006, these amounts are
($1,774,762) and $4,831,509, respectively.
|
|
(7)
|
The changes in
the balances of total stockholders’ deficiency are the sum of the changes
to the accounts that make up stockholders’ deficiency.
|
|
(8)
|
The reduction in
the amount of the 2005 general and administrative expense is the result of
reclassifying amounts previously charged to this account for amortization
of financing costs ($98,975), and liquidated damages ($281,281).
|
|
(9)
|
Amortization of
issuance costs, which were previously recorded as interest expense have
now been reclassified to amortization of financing
costs. These, along with amounts reclassified from general and
administrative expense and conversion expense make up the amount of the
change in amortization of financing costs, and amortization of debt
discount.
|
|
(10)
|
The cost of
derivatives issued with convertible debt are now treated as offsets to the
debt proceeds and amortized over the lives of the underlying debt
issues. The adjustment to amortization of debt discounts is the
result of that amortization in each of the years presented.
|
|
(11)
|
The Company
previously treated the values of all conversion privileges as
liabilities. The offsetting charges that resulted from this
accounting were ultimately applied against operations. These
charges have now been reversed.
|
|
(12)
|
SFAS 00-19-2
requires that SFAS 5 be applied to estimate the likely amounts of damages
that will result from future failures to timely comply with debt issuance
provisions requiring certain filings with the SEC. The Company
has now fully complied with the requirements.
|
|
(13)
|
It has been
determined that a number of warrants and conversion privileges previously
treated as liabilities, and subject to periodic revaluation, have been
recharacterized as equity instruments. As a result, they are no
longer revalued causing adjustments in the amounts of revaluation
income.
|
|
(14)
|
The $743,131
reduction in the 2006 general and administrative costs is the result of
reclassifying to separate expense categories the amounts of settlement
expenses ($531,655), and liquidated damages ($214,247).
|
|
(15)
|
Reclassification
from general and administrative costs.

NOTES TO RESTATED
BALANCE SHEET-2004
(1)
Among the adjustments made to comply with the requirements of the FASB and the
SEC were reductions in the amounts of common stock. These were caused
by the elimination of credits to common stock that had resulted principally from
the erroneous recognition of liabilities for conversion privileges upon
issuances of convertible debt. These credits were erroneously
transferred to paid in capital upon debt conversion. The 2005
adjustment relates to corrections of these 2005 debt issuances; the adjustment
increased in 2006 to give recognition to corrections of the 2006
issuances. Other partial offsets to these adjustments affected the
amounts of amortization expense.
(2)
Increases in the amounts of paid in capital-warrants result from adjustments to
the derivative liability account, which treated most warrants as
liabilities. They are now treated as equity. The 2005
adjustment corrects the accounting for the 2005 issuances, and the increase in
the adjustment in 2006 reflects correction of the 2006 issuances.

Group, Inc., a registered representative of the Noteholder, and the Company also
agreed to make monthly interest payments. The note conversion price
and warrant exercise prices were subsequently adjusted to $.45 per share due to
the February 20, 2007 private placement.
The
July 2006 Renegotiated Note was due and payable in full, including all accrued
and unpaid interest, on November 29, 2007. The Note has not been
repaid, and is in default. The Company is in discussions with the
lender to renegotiate the July 2006 Renegotiated Note. There can be
no assurances that the Company will be successful.
The
Company’s private placements of convertible notes and common stock purchase
warrants issued in 2005 contained liquidated damages provisions, one of which
has been settled as discussed above. For the two other financings (February 2005
Note and May 2005 Note), no liquidated damages have accrued despite the fact
that the shares underlying the notes and warrants issued in such private
placements have not been registered, since the payment of such damages is linked
to the effectiveness of the registration statement which was initially filed in
February 2005, and said registration statement has been withdrawn.
Each of the debt
issuances included associated warrants. The fair value of the warrants was
calculated using a Black-Scholes Model. Based upon an evaluation of
the criteria in EITF 00-19, the fair value of the warrants associated with the
February 2005 issue was classified as a derivative liability, and is subject to
revaluation at the end of each reporting period. Most of the warrants
issued with convertible debt have a “most favored nations” (MFN)
provision, whereby the exercise prices are subject to adjustment
based on more favorable pricing of subsequent debt issuances.

STOCK SALES AND PRIVATE
PLACEMENT OFFERINGS-
PENALTIES AND LIQUIDATED
DAMAGES
Included in the
Company’s financings during 2004 through stock sales was $1,312,000 received
from a Purchase Agreement dated November 22, 2004. The Purchase Agreement
required, among other things, that shares be registered under a registration
statement filed with the SEC, and that the registration statement be declared
effective by the SEC and the registered shares deemed tradable within a
prescribed time. The Company did not satisfy its obligation to cause the SEC to
declare the registration statement effective within the timeframe specified in
the November 2004 Registration Rights Agreement. As a result, the Company was
subject to, and accrued liquidated damages in an amount equal to 2% of the
amount invested for each 30-day period following the default date. On May 31,
2005, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with a representative of this
shareholder group, under which $120,429 was paid to settle the accrued
liquidated damages to date. Under that Letter Agreement, no further liquidated
damages would accrue until after June 30, 2005. The obligation relating to the
effectiveness of the registration statement and registration of tradable shares
was not satisfied, and liquidated damages were accrued since June 30, 2005 at
the rate of approximately $26,240 per month. The liquidated damages paid or
accrued, were charged to expense during the periods in which they accrued. For
the year ended December 31, 2005, an additional $160,851 was accrued, and
$88,126 was accrued during 2006. All liquidated damages for this issue were
settled by the issuance of the June 2006 Note.
There were three
private placement offerings during 2005. Under the provisions of the first of
these offerings, penalties will not accrue as the registration requirements of
that offering have been satisfied. Under the second private offering,
there is no provision for penalties. Under the third such offering,
penalties began to accrue on March 18, 2006, and would have accrued for a period
of nine months. A settlement was reached with the investors of this
issue on July 21, 2006, under which the penalties were canceled in exchange for
$359,549 of convertible debt, as previously discussed in the Debt section of
this Note.
NOTE
4-CAPITALIZATION
PREFERRED STOCK
The
Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without par
value. At December 31, 2005, 275,000 of these shares had been
issued. Each of these shares entitles the holder to a 5% cumulative
dividend based on a $5 per share stated value. If sufficient cash is
not available, or at the option of the shareholder, these dividends may be paid
in common stock. This issue of preferred stock also provides the
shareholder with 10 votes for each share of preferred stock. The holder of this
preferred stock is a corporation wholly owned by the estate of the Company’s
former President and Chairman.
Dividends of $68,750
accrued on the preferred stock during each of the years 2002 through 2006. Cash
dividends of $131,771 were paid during 2004. The balance of unpaid dividends at
of December 31, 2006 was $47,916.
On
March 21, 2007, the Company determined, after consultation with its independent
registered public accounting firm, that a restatement of its financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed on Form 10-KSB was
necessary due to the issuance of the Company’s preferred stock as payment of
dividends in lieu of cash dividends on April 1, 2005, with respect to previously
issued shares of preferred stock. The Company’s original Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, including on April 30, 2000, do not allow the
issuance of additional shares of preferred stock as payment of dividends on
shares of issued and outstanding preferred stock. Accordingly, the 100,000
shares of preferred stock which were issued to the holder on April 1, 2005 were
issued in error.
The
Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, including on April 30, 2000,
similarly do not support the calculation used by the Company in determining the
number of shares of common stock used to pay preferred stock dividends. The
difference being the date used in determining the stock price at the end of each
preferred dividend period, as opposed to the lowest common stock price during
the preferred dividend period, subject to a 70% discount, for calculating the
number of common shares issued as payment of the period’s preferred stock
dividend. Accordingly, the numbers of shares were greater than the number of
shares required, and were issued in error resulting in increased preferred
dividend expenses and preferred stock equity.
The
Company has determined that the number of shares deemed the equivalent of the
preferred stock dividend will be recalculated based on the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, including on April 30, 2000. (See Note 2
-Restatements). Accordingly, the Company will issue 136,041 shares of common
stock to the sole holder of the preferred stock as payment of $51,561 of
preferred stock dividends less other adjustments resulting from the
recalculation of the number of common shares required to pay preferred stock
dividends, subsequently approved. During the period January 1, 2003 through June
30, 2006, 200,238 shares of common stock were issued in excess of the amount
required.

WARRANTS
The
Company has issued warrants both as part of “stock units” and as an integral
part of convertible note issues. The determination to classify the warrants as
either derivative liabilities or equity was based upon consideration of the
specific criteria for classification established in EITF 00-19. The
fair value of the warrants is determined using a
Black-Scholes Model. Those warrants classified as liabilities
are subject to revaluation for each reporting period following the guidance in
SFAS 133.
The
following is a schedule of changes in warrants outstanding during the years 2006
and 2005. Each of these warrants is exercisable over five year periods from
dates of issuance at prices ranging from $0.45-$1.75 per share. They were
recorded at their fair values as determined by a Black Scholes Model.

The
exercise price of the warrants was changed primarily due to the presence of an
“MFN” clause that provides for adjustments based upon more favorable pricing of
subsequent issuances. When these events occur, repricing letters are sent to the
investors.
Certain issues have
“cashless exercise” features whereby the investor can convert warrants to stock
after a specified time period based, generally, on the absence of an effective
Registration Statement. The warrants are exchanged for stock based upon
predetermined formulas that reflect stock appreciation.
NOTE
5 - INCOME TAXES
The
Company has experienced losses each year since its inception. As a result, it
has incurred no Federal income tax. The Internal Revenue Code allows net
operating losses (NOL’s) to be carried forward and applied against future
profits for a period of twenty years. At December 31, 2006, the Company had NOL
carryforwards of $24,632,907 available for Federal taxes. The potential tax
benefit of the state NOL’s has been recognized on the books of the Company while
the potential benefit of the Federal NOL’s has been offset by a valuation
allowance. If not used, these Federal carryforwards will expire as
follows:

During
the year 2006, the Company realized $445,216 from the sale, as permitted by New
Jersey law, of its rights to use the New Jersey NOL’s and research and
development credits that had accrued during 2005. These potential New Jersey
offsets for periods prior to 2006 are, thus, no longer available to the
Company.
Under
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109),
recognition of deferred tax assets is permitted unless it is more likely than
not that the assets will not be realized. The Company has recorded deferred tax
assets as follows:

The
entire balance of the valuation allowance relates to Federal taxes. Since state
tax benefits for years prior to 2005 have been realized, no reserve is deemed
necessary for the benefit of state tax losses of 2006. The valuation reserve
increased by $919,889 during the year.

NOTE 7
-PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF FILCO
On
February 19, 2004, the Company reached a tentative agreement (Tentative
Agreement) to purchase capital stock of FiLCO GmbH., a German manufacturer of
fork trucks (formerly Clark Material Handling Company of Europe) with a
manufacturing facility in Mulheim, Germany (FiLCO). It was expected that the
Company would acquire 75.1% of FiLCO. While negotiations were continuing, the
Company agreed to make advances to FiLCO. Through December 31, 2005 advances
totaling $6,275,881 had been made.
On
January 20, 2006, Filco filed for insolvency in Germany and a receiver was
appointed. As a result, on February 7, 2006 the Company terminated the tentative
agreement to acquired Filco stock and began negotiations with the receiver to
acquire some or all of the Filco assets. The $6,275,881 of advances to Filco
that were outstanding at December 31, 2005, were secured by liens filed against
the machinery and equipment owned by Filco which in 2003 was appraised at
$5,400,000, and by liens filed against its intellectual property, which had not
been appraised. Due to the uncertainty of the Company’s position under German
bankruptcy law, $4,275,881 of the Filco advances were written off in 2005, and
the remaining $2,000,000 was written off in 2006. In addition, $413,000 of
Company inventory stored at the Filco plant was abandoned and written off during
2006. During 2006, an auction of Filco assets was conducted by the receiver who
did not acknowledge the Airtrax liens against property and
equipment.
NOTE 8-RELATED PARTY
TRANSACTIONS
The
Chairman of the Board of Directors made periodic loans to the Company during
2006. The loans did not accrue interest and were due on demand. The combined
loans amounted to $35,000. At the end of the year 2006, these loans have been
fully paid.
The
majority shareholder of the corporation, who was also the Company President,
made loans to the Company from time to time. These notes together with accrued
interest at 12% are due on demand. The combined unpaid balance of principal and
interest on these notes at December 31, 2006 was $75,713.
During 2006, the Board
of Directors received 145,000 shares for services as directors; these were
valued at $222,500, reflecting the fair market value of the stock at time of
awards.
On
August 25, 2006, the Company’s CEO, President and Chairman (“President”) died.
The President’s employment contact expired on June 30, 2006, and was not
renewed. The employment agreement did not provide for the exercise of the
options upon death. Under the terms of the employment contract, the
President was granted options to purchase 550,000 shares in 2004, valued at
$187,500. In 2005, he was granted 750,000 options to purchase stock
under that two year employment contract; these options were valued at $975,000.
Subsequent to his death, the Board of Directors extended for one year from the
date of the termination of the employment contract, the time during which the
options can be exercised. No adjustment has been made to previously recorded
compensation expense, as the fair value at grant significantly exceeded its
current fair value. SFAS #123R indicates that modification adjustments should
only be made when they increase the value of the initially granted
option. In 2006, the Company granted 300,000 options to its Chief
Executive Officer valued at $ 45,000.
NOTE 9
-COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
At
present, the Company is not obligated under any operating lease. Rent expense
amount to $160,571 in 2006 and $87,627 in 2005.
During May 2002, the
Company signed an agreement with a broker-dealer to provide investment banking
and financial advisory services, which included the raising of funds. Under the
agreement, the broker-dealer was entitled to receive stock
warrants, which if exercised would produce 450,000 shares of common
stock of the Company during a four year term at an exercise price of
approximately $1.75 per share. A dispute arose between the parties regarding the
agreement and its performance. The Company has asserted that the broker-dealer
induced the Company to enter into the agreement through material misstatements,
and has not otherwise performed its services under the agreement. The Company
believes the broker-dealer is not entitled to the stated compensation, and has
not issued the stock warrants.
In
connection with the Tentative Agreement mentioned in Note 7, Mr. Filipov was to
receive options to purchase 900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an
exercise price of $0.01. The Company did not issue such options because the
Acquisition Agreement was terminated and the conditions for such issuance were
never fulfilled. Mr. Filipov has indicated that he believes that the conditions
were fulfilled and that the Company owes him the options. The Company and Mr.
Filipov are continuing to discuss a mutually acceptable settlement.
NOTE 10- RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has recently issued “FASB Staff
Position EITF 00-19-2 which modifies the accounting treatment of derivatives
that flow from financings involving embedded derivatives. This Staff Position is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning January 1, 2007.
Management believes that this will cause some change in the way the Company
accounts for derivatives. Management is evaluating this position and has not
made a determination as to the effect it will have on its financial
statements.
The
Company has reviewed other accounting pronouncements issued during 2006, and has
concluded that they will have no effect on the Company's financials
statements.
NOTE
11-GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the
Company had a material working capital deficiency and accumulated deficit as of
December 31, 2006, and has experienced continuing losses. These factors raise
substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the
recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be
necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation. The Company’s
present plans, the realization of which cannot be assured, to overcome these
difficulties include but are not limited to the continuing effort to raise
capital in the public and private markets.
NOTE 12-SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
FEBRUARY 2007 PRIVATE
PLACEMENT
On
February 20, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
"Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited and/or qualified institutional
investors pursuant to which The Company sold an aggregate of $3,734,040
principal amount secured convertible debentures (the "Debentures") convertible
into shares of our common stock, no par value (the "Common Stock"), at a
conversion price equal to $0.45 (the "Conversion Price"), for an aggregate
purchase price of $3,219,000. The difference between the face amount of the
borrowing ($ 3,734,040) and proceeds ($3,219,000) was recorded
as prepaid interest, and is being amortized over the life of the
loan. In addition, the Company issued to the investors (i) warrants
to purchase 8,297,866 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the February 2007
Warrants) at an exercise price equal to $0.54 per share, which represents 100%
of the number of shares assumable upon conversion of the Debentures; (ii)
callable warrants to purchase 4,148,933 shares of our Common Stock at an
exercise price equal to $0.75 per share, which represents 50% of the number of
shares assumable upon conversion of the Debentures; and (iii) callable warrants
to purchase 4,148,933 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price equal to
$1.25 per share, which represents 50% of the number of shares assumable upon
conversion of the Debentures (collectively, the "Callable Warrants").

Issues and the warrants accompanying the November 2004 private placement of
common stock contain “Most Favored Nations” (MFN) clauses that guaranteed the
investors that subsequent issues of stock or notes would not be made on more
favorable terms. If the Company subsequently issues any shares of common stock
or securities convertible or exercisable into common stock at a per share
purchase price which is less than the conversion or exercise prices of
outstanding notes and warrants, such conversion or exercise prices would be
adjusted downward in accordance with their respective terms. As a result of the
issuance of the convertible notes on February 20, 2007, the following warrant
and conversion prices were adjusted:
|
|
1.
|
The exercise
price of the warrants associated with the May 2005 convertible debenture
offering and the conversion price of that offering, which were previously
adjusted to $1.56 per share, are now set at $0.45.
|
|
|
2.
|
The conversion
price of the October 2005 issuance of the convertible debentures, which
was previously adjusted from $2.00 per share to $1.56 per share, is now
set at $0.45.
|
|
|
3.
|
The exercise
price of the warrants issued pursuant to the October 2005 debenture Offering,
which was previously adjusted from $3.25 per share to $1.56 per share,
is
now set at $0.45 |
|
|
4.
|
The exercise
price of the warrants associated with the November 2004 stock offering was
adjusted form $1.25 per share to $0.45 per share
|
|
|
5.
|
The exercise
price associated with the July 2006 convertible debentures was adjusted
form $1.56 per share to $0.45 per share
|
|
|
6.
|
The warrant
exercise price associated with the warrants issued with the July 2006
convertible debentures was adjusted from $1.65 per share to $0.45 per
share. |
The effects of
these changes have been included in the calculation of revaluation income and
derivative liabilities during 2007.
During 2005, the
Company sold 68,750 shares in private placements, yielding proceeds of $55,000.
It also issued three convertible debt issues. Each of these issues included
detachable warrants.

note issuance. In connection with the February 2005 Note issuance, the Company
may be obligated to issue up to an additional 1.2 million shares of common stock
to shareholder’s of record who received the shares under the original issuance,
due to the reduction in the conversion price of certain convertible debt issued

were issued based on the supported claims for certain shareholders.
The
October 2005 convertible debt issuance contains a provision that automatically

maturity date. The maturity date was October 18, 2007 and Company’s

Item
8A. Controls and Procedures
(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
The
Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management,
including the recently appointed principal executive officer and acting
principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and
operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) as of the end of
the period covered by this report (the “Disclosure Controls”). Based upon the
Disclosure Controls evaluation, the recently appointed principal executive
officer and acting principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in connection with
preparing this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A due to a material weakness in the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting, mainly its financial
closing, review and analysis process and its ability to maintain adequate
records. The Company determined that a restatement of its financial statements
was necessary due to the issuance of convertible debentures and warrants
(collectively, the “Securities”) in various private placements over the last
three years. This restatement is required to properly reflect our financial
results for certain non-cash, and non-operational related charges or credits to
earnings associated with both embedded and freestanding derivative liabilities,
and the accounting for certain derivatives under the control of the issuer due
to the revised interpretation and implementation under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), the
Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 00-19, Accounting
for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a
Company’s Own Stock (“EITF 00-19”), and FASB Staff Position
No. EITF 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”
(“EITF 00-19-2”).
The
Company believes that the issues surrounding the restatement of this report,
mainly the internal controls related to the financial closing, review, and
analysis process and its ability to maintain adequate records has been addressed
and the Company has taken additional steps to avoid the reoccurrence of this
condition by adding an additional qualified person with SEC experience in the
financial reporting and analysis area. The Company has instituted a policy
requiring the controller, at the end of each quarter, to reconcile the
accounting records to the securities issuance report prepared and maintained by
the corporate secretary to ensure that all issuances have been properly recorded
and that appropriate adjustments to previously issued securities are recorded,
if necessary. The Company believes that these additional efforts taken by new
management since the end of 2006 to strengthen the Company’s internal controls
will be effective in future periods.
A control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are
resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative
to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no
evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues
and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because
of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements
due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The
Company’s internal control over financial reporting has been modified during the
Company’s most recent fiscal quarter by adding additional
resources to address deficiencies in the financial closing, review
and analysis process, and improve the Company’s record keeping, which has
materially improved the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item
12. Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director
Independence
Arcon
Corp., a corporation wholly owned by the estate of our former chairman and
President Peter Amico, owns 275,000 shares of our preferred stock.
Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to 10 votes per share on all matters
on which shareholders are entitled to vote. The holders of our common stock and
preferred stock vote as one single class. Mr. Amico and Arcon Corp. together
have 1,870,623 shares of common stock, representing 1,870,623 votes, plus
275,000 shares of preferred stock with 10 votes per share, or a total of
2,750,000 voting shares. The aforementioned equals a total of 4,620,623 voting
shares of capital stock by Mr. Amico and Arcon. The preferred stock has a stated
value per share of $5.00 and an annual dividend per share equal to 5% of the
stated value. The annual cash dividend as of December 31, 2004 was $68,750.
Dividends are cumulative and the holder has a right during any quarter to waive
any cash dividend and receive the dividend in the form of common stock at a
price per share equal to 30% of the trading price of the common stock on the
last day of the dividend period. The preferred stock is not convertible into
common stock, however, has a preference over common stockholders upon
liquidation equal to the stated value per share.
The
consideration paid by Mr. Amico and Arcon for the initial issuance of 275,000
shares of our preferred stock is as follows: Air Tracks, Inc. was incorporated
in May 1995. Peter Amico, our President and the largest shareholder of Air
Tracks, Inc., capitalized Air Tracks, Inc. with $20,000. In exchange, Mr. Amico
was issued 3.5 million shares of common stock of Air Tracks, Inc. We were formed
in April 1997 by Louis Perosi and Albert Walla. In April 1997, it was agreed to
merge our company with Air Tracks, Inc. Pursuant to the merger, Mr. Amico
exchanged 3.5 million shares of Air Tracks, Inc. stock for 1 million shares of
our common stock, plus 275,000 shares of preferred stock. It was determined by
the parties that the voting shares that would be held by Mr. Amico/Arcon would
be essentially the same.
Since the
preferred shares are not convertible and thus held no exit method it was
determined to provide a dividend. The $5.00 per share was the price used to
satisfy the issue.
Arcon is
entitled to a 5% dividend on the 275,000 shares of preferred stock which it
owns. This dividend is based on preferred stock value of $5 per share. The
holder of the preferred stock has the right to elect to receive its dividends in
common stock in lieu of cash. The dividends accrued through 2001 have been
satisfied. Dividends accrued subsequent to 2001 have been paid partly in cash
and partly by the issuance of common stock, as follows:

The
$51,562 amount was originally satisfied by the issuance of 100,000 shares of
preferred stock. Early in 2007 it was determined that the issuance of preferred
stock to satisfy preferred dividends is not permitted by the certificate of
incorporation. The 100,000 preferred shares were, therefore, retrieved and will
be replaced in 2007 by 136,041 shares of common stock. The $112,500 dividend
payment will be made in 2007 by the issuance of 218,742 shares of common
stock.
The
financial statements at December 31, 2004 reflect 275,000 shares of preferred
stock outstanding and disclosed that an additional 100,000 shares of preferred
stock were deemed the equivalent of 221,892 shares of common stock that would
have been required to settle an equivalent amount of preferred dividends. We
have determined that the number of shares deemed the equivalent of the preferred
stock dividend and has been recalculated based on our Articles of Incorporation,
as amended, including on April 30, 2000. Accordingly, we will issue 136,041
shares of common stock to the sole holder of the preferred stock as payment of
$51,562 of preferred stock dividends less other adjustments resulting from the
recalculation of the number of common shares required to pay preferred stock
dividends, subsequently approved. During the period January 1, 2003 through June
30, 2006, 200,238 shares of common stock were issued in excess of the amount
required.

Item
14. Principal Accountant
Fees and Services.
AUDIT
FEES
The
aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal
accountants for the audit of our financial statements and for the reviews of the
financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB and 10-QSBs
respectively, and for other services normally provided in connection with
statutory filings were $76,803 and $23,000, respectively, for the years ended
December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
AUDIT-RELATED
FEES
We
incurred fees of $47,947 and $15,000, respectively, for the years ended December
31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 for professional services rendered by our
independent auditors that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit
or review of our financial statements and not included in "Audit Fees." In
addition, we incurred accounting (audit) fees of $75,000 for accounting fees to
audit Filco GmbH.
TAX
FEES
The
aggregate fees billed by our auditors for tax compliance matters were $1,045 and
$750 respectively, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31,
2005.
ALL
OTHER FEES
We did
not incur any fees for other professional services rendered by our independent
auditors during the years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31,
2005.
The Board
of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services is
compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's
independence.
