1. | Throughout this report, the terms we, us, ours, ISC and company refer to
Intelligent Systems Corporation, including its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. |
2. | The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-Q have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
applicable to interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of ISC
management, these Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (which comprise
only normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and
results of operations as of and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and
2008. The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements
should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. |
3. | Reclassification Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current period presentation. On January 1, 2009, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 160 (SFAS No. 160), Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51, the provisions of which, among others, require that
minority interests be renamed noncontrolling interests and be presented as a component of
equity for all periods presented. Accordingly, $1,516,000 of minority interest which had been
recorded in the liability section of the balance sheet at December 31, 2008 has been
reclassified to stockholders equity for all periods presented. |
|
We also reclassified shipping and handling amounts billed to customers from cost of sales to
revenue totaling $369,000 and $640,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008,
respectively, to conform to our current period presentation. We classify shipping and handling
amounts billed to customers in revenue and the cost of the shipping and handling to customers as
a component of cost of revenue. |
4. | Discontinued Operations As explained in more detail in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, effective April 16,
2008, the company and two subsidiaries, VISaer, Inc. and VISaer (U.K.) Limited (collectively,
VISaer) completed the sale of substantially all the assets related to VISaers business
pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement (the Asset Purchase Agreement) between
IBS Technics, Inc. (IBS Technics) and VISaer. IBS Technics is a subsidiary of IBS Software
Services, Inc., a software services company that had previously provided certain software
development services to VISaer as an independent third party contractor. The VISaer business
is presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. |

6. | Stock-based Compensation At June 30, 2009, we have two stock-based compensation
plans in effect. In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123R (SFAS No. 123R),
Share-Based Payment which replaced APB No. 25 and SFAS No. 123. We adopted SFAS No.123R
effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective application method of adoption which
requires us to record compensation cost related to unvested stock awards by recognizing the
unamortized grant date fair value in accordance with provisions of SFAS 123R on a straight
line basis over the service periods of each award. We have estimated forfeiture rates based on
our historical experience. Stock option compensation expense is recognized as a component of
general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements. As
a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R, we recorded $3,000 and $6,000 of stock-based compensation
expense in the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively and $6,000 and $9,000
for the six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
|
The estimated fair value of options granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with assumptions as previously disclosed in our Form 10-K. |
||
As of June 30, 2009, there is $13,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock
options. During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, an aggregate of 12,000 options were granted to
the three independent members of our board of directors pursuant to the non-employee director
stock option plan (Director Plan). Pursuant to the terms of the Director Plan, the options were
granted at fair market value on the date of the Annual Shareholders meeting. No options were
exercised or forfeited during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009. The following
table summarizes options as of June 30, 2009: |

8. | Short-term Borrowings In June 2009, we renewed our working capital line of credit with our
bank. The revolving line of credit bears interest at the higher of the prime rate plus one
and one half percent and 6.75% (6.75% at June 30, 2009), is secured by all assets of the
company and our principal subsidiaries, is guaranteed by our subsidiaries, and expires June
30, 2010. We may borrow an aggregate of 80 percent of qualified accounts receivable of our
consolidated subsidiaries plus 50 percent of inventory, up to a maximum of $1,250,000. At
June 30, 2009, our borrowing base calculation resulted in availability of $1,250,000, of which
we had drawn down $437,000 at June 30, 2009. The terms of the loan contain typical covenants
not to sell or transfer material assets, to create liens against assets, to merge with another
entity, to change corporate structure or the nature of our business, to declare or pay
dividends, or to redeem shares of common stock. The loan agreement also contains covenants
not to change the chief executive and chief financial officers of the company or to make loans
to or invest in new minority-owned companies, without first obtaining the consent of our bank
in each case. Furthermore, the terms of the loan renewal include a covenant requiring the
company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth (as defined in the loan agreement) of various
calculated amounts at the end of each calendar quarter beginning September 30, 2009. |

|
Lease On June 1, 2009, we entered into an amendment to our lease for the facility at 4355
Shackelford Road, Norcross, Georgia that houses our corporate offices and the operations of our
two subsidiary companies. The amendment extended the term of the lease for three years through
May 31, 2012. All other terms and conditions of the original lease remain unchanged. The lease
is with a related party as explained in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in our 2008 Form 10-K. |

10. | Income Taxes Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, (FIN No. 48) Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition
threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial
statements and provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. We have
recognized tax benefits from all tax positions we have taken, and there has been no adjustment
to any carry forwards (net operating loss or research and development credits) as a result of
the implementation of FIN No. 48. The adoption of FIN No. 48 did not have a material effect on
our consolidated financial position or results of operations. As of June 30, 2009, we do not
have any unrecognized tax benefits and we do not anticipate any significant changes in the
balance of unrecognized tax benefits during the next twelve months. |

12. | New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160 (SFAS No.
160) Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No.
51. SFAS No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the
noncontrolling interest (minority interest) in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. It clarifies that the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership
interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated
financial statements. It also changes the way the consolidated income statement is presented,
requiring disclosure on the face of the income statement of the amount of consolidated net
income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 also
establishes appropriate accounting for changes in a parents ownership interest that do not
result in deconsolidation and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS No. 160 requires
expanded disclosure to identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the
interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and
interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Accordingly, we adopted SFAS No. 160 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 160
resulted in the renaming of a minority interest totaling $1,516,000 which had previously been
recorded in the liability section of the balance sheet to a noncontrolling interest presented
as a component of stockholders equity for all periods presented. |
Page 9
13. | Subsequent Event On July 17, 2009, we completed a rights offering of common stock to our
shareholders. Under the terms of the rights offering, we distributed at no charge to the
holders of our common stock non-transferable rights to purchase shares of our common stock. We
distributed one right for each share of common stock owned by such holder on the record date
of June 17, 2009. Each right entitled the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at
a subscription price of $.70 per share. Stockholders on the record date were also entitled to
subscribe, subject to allotment among all subscribing stockholders, for additional shares not
subscribed for by other stockholders. A registration statement relating to the rights
offering filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission was declared effective on June 18,
2009. The rights offering commenced on June 18, 2009 and terminated on July 17, 2009. The
company sold 4,479,014 new shares of common stock and received gross proceeds of $3,135,310
from the rights offering, which was oversubscribed. Giving effect to the rights offering, we
have 8,957,942 shares of common stock outstanding as of July 30, 2009. We expect that
expenses related to the transaction will be between $110,000 and $120,000. Subsequent to the
completion of the rights offering, we paid down our working capital line of credit in full and
expect to use remaining proceeds from the rights offering primarily to support plans for our
CoreCard subsidiary as well as other general working capital purposes. |

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
| A change in revenue level at one of our subsidiaries may impact consolidated revenue or
be offset by an opposing change at another subsidiary. |
| Customers may decide to postpone or cancel a planned implementation of our software for
any number of reasons, which may be unrelated to our software features or contract
performance, but which may affect the amount, timing and characterization of our deferred
and/or recognized revenue. |
| Our subsidiaries are relatively small in revenue size and, in the Information Technology
sector, revenue in a given period may consist of a relatively small number of new contracts.
Consequently, even small delays in a delivery under a new software contract (which may be
out of our control) could have a significant and unpredictable impact on consolidated
revenue that we can recognize in a given quarterly or annual period. |
Page 11
| Revenue from products, which includes sales and leases of equipment and supplies in our
Industrial Products segment as well as software license fees related to the Information
Technology segment, was $2.6 million in the three month period ended June 30, 2009, a 32
percent decline compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2008. Product revenue
declined by 37 percent in the year-to-date period of 2009 compared to the first six months of
2008. The decline in product revenue in the second quarter and year-to-date periods in 2009
compared to the prior year periods is primarily associated with a decline in domestic sales of
ChemFree parts washer equipment (our Industrial Products segment) due to the fact that in the
first half of 2008, a new customer was in the middle of a national program to sell ChemFree
products to its installed customer base, resulting in a high initial volume of sales. With
the initial rollout complete, as anticipated the number of new machines sold to this customer
in the three and six month period ended June 30, 2009 was lower than during the rollout period
last year. There was also a period-to-period decline in international equipment sales
reflecting the general economic slowdown in certain European markets. Total sales of
ChemFrees fluid and filter consumables in the domestic and international markets increased in
the three and six month period ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same periods in 2008,
reflecting an increasing base of users of its SmartWasher® part washers. However, sales of
fluid to the European market were lower in the year-to-date 2009 period compared to the six
month period of 2008 reflecting the temporary impact of a transition to a new fluid blending
facility in the UK to serve the European market. Software license revenue associated with the
Information Technology segment increased in both the three and six month periods ended June
30, 2009 compared to the respective periods in 2008 but was not a significant contributor to
product revenue in either period. The company recognizes software license revenue generally
upon completion of each contract and acceptance by customers. |
| Service revenue associated with the Information Technology segment was $540,000 and
$843,000 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, representing increases of 76 percent
and 109 percent compared to the respective periods in 2008. The change is attributed to
increased professional services projects that were completed for CoreCard customers as well as
an increase in the installed base of customers that pay for maintenance and technical support. |
| Due to general economic conditions and uncertainty about the impact of a slow economy on
the automotive repair and supplies industry, ChemFree expects a relatively flat volume of
machine sales for the foreseeable future and is carefully managing its costs and inventory
levels accordingly. We expect that sales of replenishment fluid and filter to the installed
base of customers and lease revenue will be relatively unaffected by fluctuations in general
economic conditions. Turmoil in the global financial markets could impact CoreCards revenue
and prospects in the foreseeable future if customers or prospects postpone software purchases
or implementations. We are carefully monitoring the evolving dynamics in the marketplace and
proactively lowered expenses going into 2009. We expect to fully support existing customers
and contracts and to continue to add new prospects and customers. We expect to use the funds
received from the successful completion of our stockholder rights offering as described in
more detail in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements to support CoreCards growth
plans, as well as other general corporate purposes. |
| Cost of product revenue was 52 percent and 53 percent of product revenue in the three
and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively compared to costs of 60 percent and 58
percent of product revenue in the respective periods in 2008. Higher margin fluid and
filters represented a larger percentage of product revenue in 2009 than in the comparable
periods in 2008, resulting in the improved gross margin. |
| Cost of service revenue (which relates to our CoreCard business only) was significantly
lower as a percent of service revenue in the three and six month periods ended June 30,
2009 as compared to the respective periods last year. The mix of service revenue in a
given period, as well as the number of customers and new products being supported, impacts
the gross margin on service revenue. The improvement in gross margin in 2009 is due in
part to a higher volume of professional service revenue which has a relatively lower cost
to deliver than does our customer support and maintenance revenue (both of which are
included in the category of service revenue). CoreCard is providing a high level of
support to its initial customers to ensure it builds a solid base of reference customers
and puts in place an infrastructure for future growth. Cost of providing routine
maintenance and support services as a percentage of service revenue is expected to decrease
as CoreCards installed base of customers increases, whereas the cost of professional
services is expected to have a relatively stable gross margin percentage from period to
period. |

| Turmoil in the global financial markets could have a serious negative impact on CoreCard
due to potential customers (most of whom are financial institutions or services firms)
delaying purchase or implementation decisions. |
| Reluctance by financial institutions to act as sponsor banks for prospective customers
(such as issuers and processors of credit and prepaid cards) could increase CoreCards losses
and cash requirements. |
| It is unclear to what extent the continuing weakness in the domestic US and European
economies will impact the automotive parts and repair industry and reduce demand for
ChemFrees SmartWasher® products. |
| Delays in software development projects could cause our customers to delay implementations
or delay payments, which would increase our costs and reduce our revenue. |
| Our CoreCard subsidiary could fail to deliver software products which meet the business and
technology requirements of its target markets within a reasonable time frame and at a price
point that supports a profitable, sustainable business model. |
| One of ChemFrees customers represented 34 percent of our consolidated revenue in the first
half of 2009 and any unplanned changes in the volume of orders or timeliness of payments from
such customer could have a negative impact on revenue, profits, inventory levels and cash, at
least in the near-term. |
| Failure by ChemFree to protect its intellectual property assets could increase competition
in the marketplace and result in greater price pressure and lower margins, thus potentially
impacting sales, profits and projected cash flows. |

| Software errors or poor quality control may delay product releases, increase our costs,
result in non-acceptance of our software by customers or delay revenue recognition. |
| Compliance with the internal control over financial reporting requirements of Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will increase audit-related expenses and divert management
and staff resources. |
| Competitive pressures (including pricing, changes in customer requirements and preferences,
and competitor product offerings) may cause prospective customers to choose an alternative
product solution, resulting in lower revenue and profits (or increased losses). |
| CoreCard could fail to expand its base of customers, resulting in lower revenue and profits
(or increased losses), increased cash needs and possibly leading to restructuring or cutting
back of the subsidiarys operations. |
| In certain limited situations, ChemFree lease customers are permitted to terminate the
lease covering a SmartWasher® machine, requiring the unamortized balance of the original
machine cost to be written off which could reduce profits in that reporting period and result
in lower revenue in future periods. |
| CoreCard could fail to retain key software developers and managers who have accumulated
years of know-how in our target markets and company products, or fail to attract and train a
sufficient number of new software developers and testers to support our product development
plans and customer requirements at projected cost levels. |
| Delays in anticipated customer payments for any reason would increase our cash requirements
and possibly our losses. |
| Declines in performance, financial condition or valuation of minority-owned companies could
cause us to write-down the carrying value of our investment or postpone an anticipated
liquidity event, which could negatively impact our earnings and cash flow. |
| Failure to regain compliance with the continued listing standards of NYSE Alternext U.S.
could result in delisting of our common stock, with a potentially negative impact on market
price and liquidity of our common stock. |
| Other general economic and political conditions could cause customers to delay or cancel
software purchases. |
