KVH INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2002 and 2001
(Unaudited)
(1) The accompanying consolidated financial statements of KVH Industries, Inc.
and subsidiary (the "Company") for the three- and six-month periods ended June
30, 2002 and 2001 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The consolidated financial
statements presented have not been audited by independent public accountants,
but they include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows
for such periods. These consolidated financial statements do not include all
disclosures associated with annual financial statements and accordingly should
be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 20, 2002,
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of our Form 10-K are
available upon request. Our results for the three- and six-months ended June 30,
2002 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the remainder of
the year.
(2) Inventories at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 include the costs of
material, labor, and factory overhead. Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the following:
June 30, 2002 December 31,
2001
Raw materials $ 3,380,077 2,675,890
Work in process 54,632 4,749
Finished goods 1,697,869 1,443,564
-------------- ----------------
$ 5,132,578 4,124,203
============== ================
Defense project inventories are included in the balance sheet caption "Costs and
estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts." Defense
project inventories amounted to $36,558 and $18,879 at June 30, 2002 and
December 31, 2001, respectively. Monthly invoicing of defense contracts, using
vouchers or progress billings, allows us to recover project costs as we incur
them.
(3) On January 11, 1999, we entered into a mortgage loan in the amount of
$3,000,000 with a life insurance company. The note term is 10 years, with a
principal amortization of 20 years at a fixed interest rate of 7%. Land,
building, and improvements secure the mortgage loan. The monthly mortgage
obligation is $23,259, including interest and principal. Due to the difference
in the term of the note and the amortization of the principal, a balloon payment
of $2,014,716 is due on February 1, 2009. As of June 30, 2002, $2,742,980
remained outstanding.
On March 27, 2000, we entered into a $5,000,000 asset-based, three-year,
revolving loan facility with interest at the prime bank lending rate plus 1%.
Unused portions of the revolving credit facility accrue interest at an annual
rate of 50 basis points. Funds are advanced based upon an asset availability
formula that includes our eligible accounts receivable and inventory. The
availability formula sets aside a fixed amount of qualified assets that may not
be borrowed against. We may terminate the loan prior to the full term, however
we would become liable for certain termination fees. No borrowings were
outstanding as of June 30, 2002.
(4) In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers
whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is
dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in
which those temporary differences become deductible. In accordance with the
provisions of the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", management considers the scheduled reversal of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning
strategies in making this assessment. The amount of the deferred tax asset
Item 1. Financial Statements (continued).
considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if there are
changes in the estimates of future taxable income during the carry-forward
period or feasibility of certain tax planning strategies.
An increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in the amount of
$815,603 was recorded to reserve against the tax benefit relating to the
quarterly and year-to-date domestic loss for the period ended June 30, 2002. The
Company assesses the recoverability of its deferred tax asset quarterly, by
considering whether it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire
deferred tax asset will be realized. Based on the history of operating losses in
its ongoing business and its expectations in the future, the Company has
determined that a portion of the deferred tax asset, including the tax benefit
related to the domestic losses incurred to date through June 30, 2002, will
likely not be recoverable and a valuation allowance has been accordingly
established.
(5) Net loss per common share. Common share equivalents to purchase 347,987 and
345,350 shares of common stock for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2002, have been excluded from the basic and fully diluted calculations of
loss per share, as there inclusion would be anti-dilutive. The following is a
reconciliation of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding used in the
computation of the basic loss per common share:

Company Overview
KVH Industries designs and manufactures products that enable mobile
communication, defense navigation, and direction sensing through the use of its
proprietary mobile satellite antenna and fiber optic technologies. KVH is an
established company with existing product lines that drive consistent revenue
growth, positioning the Company as the leader in the marine and land mobile
satellite communications and defense land vehicle navigation markets. In late
2000 we began research into low-profile satellite antennas and in-fiber
modulators to extend our reach in mobile satellite communications and enter the
fiber optic infrastructure markets. To fund these efforts, the Company carried
out a series of private placements that raised $17.5 million, net of transaction
costs.
Principal Technologies and Products
KVH employs two key proprietary technologies - fiber optics and mobile satellite
antennas - in its products. These technologies allow KVH to address
opportunities across a wide spectrum of markets, including defense-related
navigation and stabilization, optical telecommunications, and in-motion
satellite communications (e.g., vessels, recreation vehicles (RVs), and other
vehicles).
Fiber Optics
Since acquiring the fiber optic assets of Andrew Corporation in 1997, KVH has
invested in and completed the development of its proprietary EoCore(R) line of
fiber optic gyros (FOGs), and successfully integrated them into the Company's
existing products. KVH produces both optical fiber and optical subassemblies for
integration with its products or for original equipment manufacturer's (OEM)
applications. Our integrated manufacturing process ensures the highest level of
quality, resulting in production yields that are significantly higher than the
industry average. Our fiber optic technology is being applied to an array of
applications in different markets and has enhanced the precision and durability
of our products.
Defense Applications
The military's evolving combat strategy places a premium on the precision
vehicle navigation critical for rapid deployments, high-speed maneuvers, and
digital battlefield coordination. KVH Industries' TACNAV(TM) integrated tactical
navigation systems offer every military vehicle and force commander - whether in
a command, support, or combat vehicle - 100% availability of position and other
tactical data, even if the Global Positioning System (GPS) is disrupted or
jammed. In addition to interfacing with the onboard GPS, TACNAV consolidates
onboard tactical data and transmits the data via digital Battlefield Management
Systems (BMS) to the force commander and the other units in the field, enhancing
operational efficiency and coordination. KVH is a leading supplier of integrated
navigation and targeting systems worldwide, with systems aboard more than 7,000
vehicles. KVH offers multiple variants of the TACNAV system using both KVH FOGs
and digital compasses, providing complete operational support for virtually the
entire spectrum of military vehicles through a low-cost, integrated solution.
KVH's fiber optic rotation rate sensors also meet the emerging need among
military forces for drone and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation, turret
stabilization and guided munitions. Our sensors offer improved precision and
reliability over existing systems at a lower cost, providing KVH a significant
competitive advantage.
Optical Telecommunication Applications
The same optical fiber technology that is integral to KVH FOGs and sensors is
also appropriate for use in high-speed optical telecommunication components.
Development is underway on our photonic fiber initiative, which combines our
patented D-shaped optical fiber with a new electro-optic polymer. Our intent is
to turn passive fiber into an active optical component for next-generation
high-speed optical networks. The first product that we anticipate bringing to
market using our ActiveFiber(TM) Technology is a high-speed external modulator
capable of speeds in excess of 40 gigabits per second (Gbps) that will meet the
needs of existing 10 Gbps and emerging 40 Gbps networks. We expect that KVH
ActiveFiber Technology, if successfully developed, may serve as a platform for
additional optical components that may be suitable for use in optical networking
as well as in our next-generation mobile satellite antennas.
Mobile Satellite Antennas
KVH's TracVision(R) and Tracphone(R) products connect people on the move to
satellite television, telephone, and high-speed Internet services. These
award-winning systems have established KVH as a market leader in both the marine
and land mobile markets. The core technology in KVH's family of satellite
television and communications systems is the Company's proprietary three-axis,
fully stabilized antenna, which maintains contact with specific geo-stationary
satellites when a vessel or vehicle is in motion. The antennas use a gyro and
inclinometer to precisely measure the pitch, roll, and yaw of an antenna
platform in relation to the earth. Based on that data, on-board microprocessors
and the Company's proprietary stabilization and control software compute the
antenna movement necessary for the antenna's motors to point the antenna
properly and maintain satellite contact. KVH antennas also carry out rapid
initial acquisition, continuous tracking, and reacquisition of the satellite
signal without operator intervention.
Marine and RV Applications
Since the introduction of the first TracVision satellite TV antenna in 1994, the
Company has continued to refine its TracVision products, resulting in smaller,
lower cost antennas with higher levels of performance. KVH's proprietary
integrated Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) technology allows its antennas to
receive signals from high-powered digital television services like DIRECTV(R),
as well as virtually any DVB satellite service worldwide, including the DISH
Network(TM) and ExpressVu in North America; DIRECTV Latin America in Central and
South America; Astra, Hotbird, Thor, Sirius, and Hispasat in Europe; and Arabsat
in Africa and the Middle East. Platforms using our TracVision satellite
television antennas include pleasure and commercial marine craft as well as
moving or stationary RVs, motor coaches, vans, and long-haul trucks.
KVH has an established distribution and service infrastructure that comprises
more than 3,000 dealers in the United States alone. The National Marine
Electronics Association (NMEA) has named the Company's TracVision family the
"Best Satellite Television Product" in 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2001. KVH is now
the dominant player in the existing mobile satellite market, with an estimated
70 percent market share in the marine and RV mobile satellite TV marketplaces.
In October 2001, KVH announced that it had signed an exclusive agreement with
Bell ExpressVu to distribute the DirecPC(R) satellite Internet service to mobile
customers in the United States. KVH then introduced its TracNet(TM) mobile
high-speed Internet system for the maritime and land mobile markets, making KVH
the only company to offer mobile, two-way access to high-speed Internet services
to vessels and vehicles in and around North America. TracNet shipments began in
the second quarter of 2002. TracNet is fully compatible with all of KVH's DVB
satellite TV antenna systems and allows mobile users to surf the Internet at
speeds up to 400 kilobits per second (Kbps).
Automotive Applications
The tremendous acceptance and expansion of multimedia systems aboard vehicles
has created a need for a system that will provide live programming and
high-speed Internet for these video systems. The KVH mobile broadband research
initiative is directed toward the development of a low-profile satellite TV
antenna that will provide in-motion access to high-speed, two-way Internet and
satellite television services for the video and computer systems aboard
automobiles and other vehicles. The first phase of the mobile broadband effort
is to build a low-profile satellite TV antenna suitable for use aboard SUVs and
minivans. Subject to the timely completion of this development effort, we
anticipate that the low-profile antenna will be introduced to the market late in
the second half of 2002.
Marine Satellite Communications Applications
KVH is also a leading provider of marine satellite communications systems. Our
fully stabilized Tracphone systems equip pleasure and commercial marine vessels
with two-way voice, fax, and e-mail with global coverage provided by the
satellite constellation operated by Inmarsat (the International Maritime
Satellite Organization). In June 2002, KVH announced that it would begin selling
Inmarsat airtime services to complement its Tracphone line of satellite
communications hardware, creating a new, recurring revenue opportunity for the
company. With more than 20 years experience, Inmarsat is the largest and most
successful mobile communications company, serving marine, land mobile, and
aeronautical customers worldwide. Inmarsat now supports links for phone, fax,
and data communications at up to 64 Kbps to more than 240,000 ships, vehicles,
aircraft, and portable terminals.
Results of Operations
Net loss per share - Net losses for the three and six-month periods ended June
30 were $812,137 or $0.07 per share and $1,958,507 or $0.18 per share in 2002
and $1,993,896 or $0.19 per share and $3,531,262 or $0.37 per share in 2001,
respectively. Operating losses reflect ongoing project research expenditures for
our photonic fiber and mobile broadband research initiatives. We anticipate that
project spending will decline in the second half of this year and as a result we
forecast a return to profitability, in the second half of this year.
Net sales - Net sales for this year's second quarter were $12,641,244, an
increase of 61% over last year's second quarter's sales of $7,829,217. Quarterly
sales gains were due to roughly a five-fold increase in defense shipments and a
74% growth in domestic communications sales over the prior year second quarter.
Defense revenue increases are due to foreign military sales, while domestic
communications sales growth reflects the success of our large account
distribution strategy, and the launch of both the Thrane & Thrane product line
and the TracNet mobile Internet product. Year-to-date revenues rose to
$22,282,757, a 40% increase from last year's result. Year-to-date sales gains
include a doubling of defense shipments and a 53% increase in domestic
communication sales. Positive factors that were responsible for year-to-date
revenue growth are largely the same as those responsible for second quarter
results. Current sales trends remain strong and we continue to forecast annual
revenue growth in the 30% - 40% range. Factors that could place our forecast at
risk include slower than anticipated defense and fiber optic sales.
Gross profit - Gross profit is comprised of revenues less the cost of materials,
direct labor and manufacturing overheads. Second quarter gross profit dollars
grew by 89%, while gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales increased to
42% of sales from 36% of sales in the prior year's second quarter. Factors that
made up the six point margin improvement included a favorable mix of higher
margin defense shipments, that added 1% to last year's profit percentage, and a
leveling out of manufacturing overhead spending that added 5% to the gross
profit percentage total. Manufacturing overhead spending increased in absolute
terms by $198,686 from the prior year's second quarter, but declined as a
percentage of revenues by 5%, as manufacturing overhead cost reduction programs
took effect and fixed overhead costs per unit declined in response to greater
shipment volumes. The same factors that were responsible for the second
quarter's favorable result accounted for a positive year-to-date gross profit
growth to 43% of sales from last year's 37%. Gross margins are forecast to
slowly improve over the remainder of the year based upon continuing
manufacturing overhead cost reductions, and sales mix weighted towards higher
margin defense products. Factors that could place our forecast at risk include
slower than anticipated defense and fiber optic sales.
Operating expenses
Second quarter 2002 research and development expense increased $171,216 to
$2,432,512, or 8% from last year's second quarter R&D expense of $2,261,296,
while year-to-date spending increased $760,710 to $4,766,211 or 19% above the
prior year. R&D increases are due to continuing project investments in our
photonic fiber and low-profile mobile broadband antenna development projects. We
estimate that R&D expenditures will begin to decrease as we reduce our reliance
on outside consultants and gradually reduce project spending as we near the
completion of the low-profile antenna project and we begin to scale back our
investment in photonic fiber. Based upon our current R&D spending forecast, we
anticipate that R&D spending will decline for the remainder of the year as
increases in customer-funded research combine with reduced project spending to
lower overall R&D expenditures. Factors that could place our forecast at risk
include slowness in customer-funding, or unforeseen research project expenses.
Second quarter 2002 sales and marketing expense grew by $796,847 to $2,775,751,
a 40% increase from last year's second quarter spending of $1,978,904. Roughly
66% of the second quarter sales spending increase was made up of outside sales
representative commissions, which increased by $526,529 from the prior year in
response to a 61% quarterly sales increase, while in-house commissions, customer
support, the establishment of the Internet services administrative support group
and dealer support costs made up the remainder of the marketing and sales
spending increase. Year-to-date sales and marketing expenses rose to $5,094,015,
an increase of $866,779 or 21% above the prior year's first half. Year-to-date
spending increases reflect the spending categories that resulted in the second
quarter. We anticipate that sales and marketing expense will decline modestly,
from second quarter levels in the third quarter due to one-time second quarter
outside representative commissions, and then increase in the fourth quarter
proportionately as sales volumes increase.
General and administrative second quarter expenses increased $173,798 to
$813,592, or a 27% increase from last year's second quarter spending of
$639,794. Non-recurring recruiting and professional fees made up the increase.
Year-to-date spending rose $254,886 to $1,532,932, or 20% over the prior year.
Annual spending growth reflected the same factors that influenced the second
quarter. We believe that administration expense will remain relatively flat for
the remainder of the year.
Income tax expense - Our quarterly and year-to-date domestic income tax benefit
was fully reserved and, accordingly, does not offset our domestic operating
loss. As a result, our quarterly domestic net loss increased by $338,025 or
$0.03 per share, and our year-to-date net loss increased $815,620 or $0.07 per
share, which equals the amount of valuation allowance allocated to our quarterly
and year-to date domestic losses. We have allocated income tax expense of
$86,100 to our non-domestic operating income on a year-to-date basis. Utilizing
the guidelines in the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," we
have assessed, based upon historical losses and our expected lack of
profitability in the near term, that it is more likely than not that a portion
of our deferred tax asset will not be realized and a valuation allowance has
accordingly been established. In addition, the amount of the deferred tax asset
appearing on the balance sheet that is considered realizable could be reduced in
the near term if changes occur in the feasibility of certain tax planning
strategies.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital - Our cash balance was $6.5 million at June 30, 2002. Cash
decreased by $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2002 due to accounts
receivable growth of $0.7 million in response to a 61% sales increase, decreases
in accounts payable and customer deposits totaling $1.2 million and capital
expenditures rose $0.3 million. Cash flow from operations is forecast to improve
significantly for the remainder of the year, in response to improved operating
results, however positive cash flow from operations will be offset by
second-half capital expenditures, resulting in an estimated decrease in the June
30, 2002 cash balance of roughly $0.05 million. We anticipate that existing cash
balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating and capital going
forward.
Other Matters
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses for the periods presented.
Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of
significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially
different results under different assumptions and conditions. The Company's
significant accounting policies are included in Note 1 of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K dated March
20, 2002. The significant accounting policies which management believes are the
most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating the Company's
reported financial results include allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory
valuation, impairment of long-lived assets and recoverability of deferred tax
assets.
The Company's estimate for its allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade
receivables is based on specific and historical criteria that are combined to
determine the total amount reserved. The Company evaluates specific accounts
where we have information that the customer may have an inability to meet its
financial obligations. The Company uses its judgment, based on the best
available facts and circumstances, and records a specific reserve for that
customer against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount that is
expected to be collected. These specific reserves are reevaluated on a monthly
basis and adjusted as additional information is received that impacts the amount
reserved. An additional reserve is established for all customers based on a
range of percentages applied to aging categories. These percentages are based on
historical collection and write-off experience and are analyzed on a quarterly
basis. If circumstances change, the Company's estimates of the recoverability of
amounts due the company could be reduced by a material amount.
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company continually
ensures that slow-moving and obsolete inventory is written down to its net
realizable value by reviewing current quantities on hand, actual and projected
sales volumes and anticipated selling prices on products. Generally, the Company
does not experience issues with obsolete inventory due to the nature of its
products being interchangeable with various product offerings. If the Company
were not able to achieve its expectations of the net realizable value of the
inventory at its current value, the Company would have to adjust its reserves
accordingly.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for indications of impairment when events and
circumstances indicate that the assets might not be recoverable. Recoverability
of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the assets carrying value to
the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the
asset. If such assets were considered to be impaired, the impairment would be
measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair
value based on estimated discounted cash flows. The preparation of future cash
flows requires significant judgments and estimates with respect to future
revenues related to the respective asset and the future cash outlays related to
those revenues. Actual revenues and related cash flows or changes in anticipated
revenues and related cash flows could result in a change in this assessment and
result in an impairment charge. The preparation of discounted cash flows also
requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate. The use of different
assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted cash flows and could
increase or decrease the related impairment charge.
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss carry forwards. On a quarterly basis the Company assesses the
recoverability of the deferred tax assets by considering whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. Based on the history of operating earnings in its ongoing business and
its expectations in the future, the Company has determined that a portion of the
deferred tax assets were not recoverable and a valuation allowance was
established. For the remaining deferred tax assets the recoverability of these
assets was deemed to be recoverable based on certain tax planning strategies.
The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be reduced in
the future if there are changes in the Company's feasibility of certain tax
planning strategies. Additionally, if the Company generates future earnings the
realizability of the deferred tax assets reserved by the valuation allowance
would be utilized.
Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments
Our contractual commitments consist of a mortgage note payable, facility and
equipment leases. The principal repayment of the mortgage note is based upon a
20-year amortization schedule, but the term is 10 years requiring a balloon
payment of $2,014,716, due on February 1, 2009. There are no loan to value
covenants in the loan that would require early pay-down of the mortgage if the
market value of the property should decline. We are also obligated under a
multi-year facility lease that terminates in 2005. Our present intention is to
renew the facility lease prior to its expiration in 2005. Our operating leases
represent vehicle and equipment operating leases. The schedule below reflects
our liabilities under these agreements.
Total 2002 - 2004 2005 - 2006 After 2006

Other Matters
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
(SFAS No. 142). SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with
indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for
impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.
SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be
amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated
residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144.
The Company adopted the provision of SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002, and it
did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and
reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This Statement
requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows, an
impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of
the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. SFAS No. 144 requires companies
to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a
component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment,
or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be
disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less
costs to sell. The Company adopted the provision of SFAS No. 144 on January 1,
2002 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements.
Inflation. The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on
its results of operations.
Trends, Risks and Uncertainties
This "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" contains forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties. There are important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those anticipated by our previous statements.
We May Fail to Complete Our Mobile Broadband Development Initiative Successfully
Our mobile broadband project is in the development stage. The KVH mobile
broadband initiative is directed toward the development of a low-profile
satellite TV antenna that will provide in-motion access to high-speed, two-way
Internet and satellite television services for the video and computer systems
aboard automobiles and other vehicles.
The project involves significant technical advances and there can be no
assurance that we will achieve the form factor, performance, and cost parameters
necessary for successful commercialization of these products. A delay or failure
to create our ActiveFiber Technology could prevent the development of an
affordable flat panel, phased-array antenna. If we are delayed in our
development of our mobile broadband technology and/or are not first to market
with this technology, we may be unable to achieve significant market share in
the automotive mobile satellite communication market.
The Success of the TracNet Mobile High-speed Internet Service Depends on the
Performance and Quality of Other Service Providers The new TracNet service is
designed to provide mobile high-speed Internet access to vehicles and vessels
throughout North America and as far as 100 miles off the coast. TracNet's
successful operation depends on the use of KVH's antenna and other components
with services and equipment of other suppliers. Specifically, TracNet will rely
upon the service offered by the satellite Internet provider (Bell ExpressVu of
Canada), as well as the equipment and services of cellular and satellite return
link communications suppliers. Globalstar Satellite Communications Services,
which KVH intends to use as the satellite return link supplier for TracNet,
filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on
February 15, 2002, and currently is operating its business as a
debtor-in-possession. Should Globalstar or one of the other vendors integral to
TracNet's operation be unable to fulfill its obligations, KVH will seek an
alternate supplier and carry out any necessary hardware and software retrofits
or upgrades that may be required to ensure the continued operation of the
TracNet system. In such an event, KVH may not be able to identify and enter into
appropriate agreements with replacement suppliers.
Pricing of Our Mobile Satellite Communications Products is Critical to Product
Acceptance The success of our mobile broadband project depends upon our ability
to develop a technologically advanced antenna at an acceptable price for the
automotive marketplace. To date, phased-array antennas have been developed at
prices far in excess of what is practical in the automotive marketplace. There
can be no assurance that we can engineer a phased-array solution within the
pricing and technical parameters necessary to be successful in the automotive
marketplace.
We May Fail to Complete Our Photonic Fiber Development Initiative Successfully
Our photonic fiber project is currently in the development stage. We are
developing our ActiveFiber Technology consisting of photonic fiber products that
we believe will replace electro-optic components and create an active-fiber
networking solution that would greatly enhance the speed of transmissions over
fiber optic networks. We may never complete the technological development
necessary to realize the full commercial potential of the project. Our current
approach utilizes a new electro-optic polymer and our D-fiber technology. The
photonic fiber initiative involves significant technical advances, and there can
be no assurance that we will achieve the form factor, performance, and cost
parameters necessary for successful commercialization of this technology.
If we are delayed in our development of our photonic fiber technology and/or are
not first to market with this technology, we may be unable to achieve
significant market share in the fiber optic networking market. The marker
acceptance of our proposed photonic fiber modulator could also be delayed as a
result of ongoing uncertainty in the telecommunications industry. Failure to
complete development of our photonic fiber technology will also prevent us from
developing a phase shifter based on that technology, which may impair our
ability to effectively provide mobile broadband communications services to
automobiles through the use of a flat panel, phased-array antenna.
Research and Development Expenditures Could Result in Continuing Operating
Losses For the past four years we have made significant investments in research
and development that have contributed to operating losses in each of those
years. In May 2001, we completed a series of private placements that raised
$17.5 million, net of transaction costs, to accelerate our research into two key
product areas, photonic fiber and mobile broadband. If 2002 projected R&D
project expenditures are extended beyond our current projections for the
remainder of this year or the introduction of these products is delayed, it will
slow our anticipated return to profitability. Should we continue to accelerate
spending beyond current budgeted levels for 2002, we could continue to
experience operating losses and negative cash flows.
Future Sales Growth Depends on the Continued Expansion of Satellite
Communications Revenues To date, the Company's growth has been sustained by a
consistent expansion of our satellite communications sales. Our future satellite
communications sales growth will be based to a considerable extent upon the
successful introduction of new mobile satellite communications products for use
in marine and land applications. Our success depends heavily on rapid completion
of new products, particularly for worldwide Internet and data applications.
However, poor consumer confidence and/or economic conditions could depress
product demand. Our success also depends on external variables such as
consumers' access to satellite communication services, which may be hindered
because satellite launches and new technology are expensive and subject to
failures, depressing demand for our products.
Defense-related Sales Could be Adversely Affected by Political and International
Events Recent world events and a shift in military planning to favor rapid
deployment and lighter vehicles put a premium on precision navigation, a feature
offered by KVH's integrated tactical navigation systems. Based on our shippable
backlog in 2002 and current military procurement schedules, we anticipate a
doubling of our defense-related revenues, which is required for a return to
profitability in 2002. However, this growth could be adversely affected by:
delays in the current military procurement schedule; an unexpected shift or
reallocation of anticipated funding for military programs; delays in the testing
and acceptance of our technological solutions by the military; and sales cycles
that are long and difficult to predict.
Our Operating Results are Variable
Our quarterly operating results have varied in the past and may vary
significantly in the future depending upon all the foregoing risk factors and
how successful we are in improving our ratios of revenues to expenses.
Our Share Price has Displayed Volatility
The Company's stock has experienced substantial price volatility as a result of
variations between its actual and anticipated financial results and as a result
of announcements by the Company and its competitors. In addition, the stock
market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected
the market price of many technology companies in ways that have been unrelated
to the operating performance of these companies. These factors, as well as
general economic and political conditions, may materially adversely affect the
market price of the Company's common stock in the future.
Our Consumer Product Sales are Dependent on the Financial Strength and
Performance of Our Distribution Network Many of our consumer-oriented products
are marketed through a third-party worldwide network of value-added resellers,
distributors, and independent sales representatives. Many of the Company's
resellers operate on narrow product margins, and may distribute products from
competing manufacturers. The Company's business and financial results could be
adversely affected if the financial condition of these resellers weakened, if
resellers within consumer channels were to cease distribution of the Company's
products, or if uncertainty regarding demand for the Company's products caused
resellers to reduce their ordering and marketing of the Company's products.
If We Fail to Commercialize New Product Lines, Our Business Will Suffer
We intend to continue to develop new product lines and to improve existing
product lines to meet our customers' diverse and changing needs. However, our
development of new products and improvements to existing products may not be
successful, due to our failure to complete the development of a new product or
product improvement; or our failure to sell our new product or improved product
because, among other things, the product is too expensive, is defective in
design, manufacture or performance, is inferior to similar products on the
market, or has been superceded by a superior product or technology. Furthermore,
new products require increased sales and marketing, customer support, and
administrative functions to support anticipated increased levels of operations.
We may not be successful in creating this infrastructure, and we may not realize
a sufficient increase in gross profit to offset the expenses resulting from this
expanded infrastructure.
Our Success Depends to a Significant Degree Upon the Protection of Our
Proprietary Technology The unauthorized reproduction or other misappropriation
of our proprietary technology could enable third parties to benefit from our
technology without paying us for it. This could have a material adverse effect
on our business, operating results and financial condition. If we resort to
legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights, the proceedings
could be burdensome and expensive and could involve a high degree of risk.
Moreover, the laws of other countries in which we market our products may afford
little or no effective protection of our intellectual property.
Claims by Other Companies that We Infringe Their Copyrights or Patents Could
Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition If any of our products violate
third-party proprietary rights, we may be required to reengineer our products or
seek to obtain licenses from third parties to continue to offer our products.
Any efforts to reengineer our products or obtain licenses on commercially
reasonable terms may not be successful, and, in any case, would substantially
increase our costs and have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition. We do not conduct comprehensive patent searches
to determine whether the technology used in our products infringes patents held
by third parties. In addition, product development is inherently uncertain in a
rapidly evolving technological environment in which there may be numerous patent
applications pending, many of which are confidential when filed, with regard to
similar technologies.
Although we are generally indemnified against claims that third-party technology
that we license infringes the proprietary rights of others, this indemnification
is not always available for all types of intellectual property rights (for
example, patents may be excluded) and in some cases the scope of such
indemnification is limited. Even if we receive broad indemnification,
third-party indemnitors are not always well capitalized and may not be able to
indemnify us in the event of infringement, resulting in substantial exposure to
us. There can be no assurance that infringement or invalidity claims arising
from the incorporation of third-party technology in our products, and claims for
indemnification from our customers resulting from these claims, will not be
asserted or prosecuted against us. These claims, even if not meritorious, could
result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources in
addition to potential product redevelopment costs and delays, all of which could
materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial
condition.
In addition, any claim of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs
defending against the claim, even if the claim is invalid, and could distract
our management from their business. A party making a claim also could secure a
judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages. A judgment could also
include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from selling
our products. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition.
Our Future Success Depends to a Significant Degree on the Skills, Experience,
and Efforts of the Company's CEO, Martin Kits Van Heyningen, and our Senior
Executives The loss of the services of Mr. Kits van Heyningen could have a
material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition. We also depend on the ability of our executive officers and other
members of senior management to work effectively as a team. We do not have
employment agreements with any of our executive officers.
General Economic Conditions and Current Economic and Political Uncertainty Could
Adversely Affect the Company The Company's operating performance depends
significantly on general economic conditions. Demand for some of the Company's
consumer-oriented products displayed slower-than-anticipated growth as a result
of worsening global economic conditions. Continued uncertainty about future
economic conditions has also made it increasingly difficult to forecast future
operating results. Should global and regional economic conditions fail to
improve or continue to deteriorate, demand for the Company's products could be
adversely affected, as could the financial health of its suppliers,
distributors, and resellers. The terrorist attacks that took place on September
11, 2001, have created many economic and political uncertainties and have had a
strong negative impact on the global economy. The long-term effects of the
September 11, 2001, attacks on the Company's future operating results and
financial condition are unknown.
Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On June 20, 2002 Agility Robotics, Inc. ("Agility") informed us that it had
filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court for the
District of Minnesota alleging that certain of our products infringe two United
States patents owned by Agility. The complaint has not been served on us.
Agility has contacted us regarding the possibility of licensing the technology
that is subject to the complaint. We have responded by seeking additional
information from Agility. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously if Agility
serves the complaint and proceeds with the litigation.
In the ordinary course of business, we are party to legal proceedings and
claims. In addition, from time to time, the Company has had contractual
disagreements with certain customers concerning the Company's products and
services, which will not have a material affect on operations or capital
resources.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Shareholders
At our 2002 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") held on May
29, 2002, the Company's stockholders acted upon a proposal to:
To elect three directors to serve a three-year term, until their
successors have been elected.
Martin Kits van Heyningen, Robert W.B. Kits van Heyningen and Werner Trattner
were elected to serve as directors for a three year term and until their
successors are elected. Arent H. Kits van Heyningen, Mark S. Ain, Stanley K.
Honey and Charles R. Trimble continued to serve as a director following the
annual meeting.
