January 1, 1998 to June 30, 1998
The Company had revenues of $ 579,300 for the six month period ended June 30, 1998, all of which was from the sale of the Digital Home Theater and accessories. Cost of goods sold of $ 508,267 resulted in gross profit of $71,033, which was adversely affected by the initial cost of the Texas Instruments light engine, the principle component of the Digital Home Theater. During this period, the Company completed development and began the initial production run of a second-generation product, the Series II Digital Home Theatre.
During this period, the Company incurred cash expenses of $ 3,610,581. With respect to the amount spent in the first six months of 1998 versus the amounts in the comparable period in 1997, the increase in general and administrative expense is due to increased participation in trade shows, higher salaries reflects the addition of marketing personnel, higher legal fees are related to the costs of settling the litigation with a former officer, and higher R&D is associated with development of the Series II product. The Company also incurred non-cash expenses of $ 756,095 during the period a) for depreciation, which was higher than in the first six months of 1997 due to a full six months of depreciation of the tooling for the Digital Home Theater in 1998, b) for the expensing of inventory not usable in the Series II product, and c) for the issuance of stock principally for legal services. The Company also recorded $ 1,808,490 in dividends on the Series B, Series F , and Series G Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with recognizing the dividends on the Series B, the discount on the Series F and Series G conversion feature, and the warrants issued in connection with the Series F and Series G Preferred Stock.
