GENERAL
INFORMATION ABOUT WI-TRON
Wi-Tron’s
Mission is to become a world leader in ultra-linear, high-value power amplifier
technology products for wireless telecommunication infrastructure providers
by
anticipating and exceeding their needs and expectations, while providing high
profit margins to the Company.
Background:
The Company was incorporated on December 14, 1995 as Amplidyne Inc. and renamed
Wi-Tron, Inc in August 2005. Since that time Wi-Tron has been reorganizing
its
operational structure and making management changes. The company is led by
its
CEO and Chairman John Lee. The company has retained Joe Nordgaard as a Business
Development Consultant.
Wi-Tron
has 15 proven product designs for Radio Frequency Amplifiers, Wi-Max Amplifiers,
Wi-Fi Solutions and Wireless Repeaters; patents in Analog Pre-Distortion
techniques and 15 years experience in custom RF amplifier design and
manufacturing.
RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS
In
February 2008, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent providing
for the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Cellvine
Ltd.,
a
private Israeli company that develops and markets coverage and capacity
solutions for the wireless telecommunications industry,
in exchange
for 85% of the outstanding common stock of Wi-tron on a fully diluted basis,
leaving the existing owners of the Company's common stock with 15% on a fully
diluted basis. Among other things, the agreement provides for the conversion
of
the Tek, Ltd. debt ($908,662 at December 31, 2007) into common stock at $.05
per
share. Pursuant to the merger, the Company wil change its name to Cellvine.
The
merger will be subject to negotiating a definitive binding merger agreement,
and
obtaining all necessary corporate approvals.
In
February 2008, the Company received gross proceeds of $215,000 in connection
with the private placement sale to accredited investors of 15,250,000 shares
of
restricted common stock.
HISTORY
OF THE RF AMPLIFIER INDUSTRY
Until
about 2003, large telecom equipment manufacturers such as Ericsson, Motorola,
Nortel and Lucent Technologies maintained comprehensive R&D departments to
design and manufactured their own RF amplifiers. This was effective, but
expensive and consequently they cut back much of their R&D capabilities to
streamline operations and reduce costs. As a result, the industry became more
standardized, but telecom service providers now have increased their reliance
on
outsourced design, manufacturing and solutions.
This
outsourcing shift, coupled with the rapid growth in the cellular industry,
caused rapid growth of the RF amplifier industry. The two largest US
manufacturers, Powerwave Inc. and Andrews Corp., dominate the RF amplifier
industry’s cutting-edge technologies development, which represents the highest
profit margins in the industry. The rest of the industry is serviced by dozens
of small companies around the world, who tend to focus on lower technology
solutions and lower profit margins. Companies of any size that show R&D
prowess are quickly acquired by the industry giants so they retain the most
advanced technologies available.
This
outsourcing and acquisition trend has led amplifier and component designs toward
increased complexity and technical sophistication in the form of complete RF
Subsystems. However, there are still major problems in the form of power and
signal inefficiencies that the major companies are not solving sufficiently.
Much of Wi-Tron’s future success is based on solving these problems.
PLANS
FOR
IMPROVING RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
At
Wi-Tron, Inc., we are taking advantage of many opportunities in the wireless
industry by developing state-of-the-art RF amplifier technology for the second,
third and fourth generation wireless telecommunications systems. We are
developing advanced RF amplifier designs that significantly increase power
and
frequency efficiency and resolve key issues relating to the ever increasing
need
for more complex broadband, multi-channel solutions. We continue to build our
R&D team to capitalize on these opportunities, where both the greatest
demand and the greatest opportunity to gain market-share with high margin
solutions exist.
Initially,
Wi Tron will work to increase sales of RF amplifiers while simultaneously
developing cutting edge technological designs for near and long term sales
growth. Wi-Tron intends to build partnership and marketing strengths from a
series of design platforms, some of which have already have been developed,
in
order to expand our market opportunities across technologies, frequency bands
and power ranges.
Our
strategy is to develop, manufacture and sell the most advanced amplifier
products in the world, which could give Wi-Tron a lead time to market advantage
against the largest names in the industry. Wi Tron’s new amplifiers are energy
efficient, have wide bandwidth and digital clarity, with embedded intellectual
property protection. These products are in great demand by wireless service
providers and equipment vendors around the world. Wi-Tron’s products will save
energy costs, while providing high speed data, video and streaming video
transmissions, with high voice quality to wireless customers around the world.
There are additional savings to service providers each Wi-Tron amplifier can
do
the workload of several older amplifiers.
We
have
developed new amplifier products for the wireless communications market. Our
sales and marketing efforts are focused on Latin America, Asia, Europe and
U.S.
markets. We plan to establish “Wi-Tron China” to accelerate our penetration of
the Chinese market and to manage our outsourced manufacturing operations in
China
We
intend
to refine our products as needed and in a timely fashion in order to obtain
market share.
High
Quality, Reliability and Customer Support.
We
believe that the power amplifier in cell sites historically has been the single
most common point of equipment failure in wireless telecommunications networks.
Increasingly reliable power amplifiers, therefore, will improve the level of
service offered by wireless service providers, while reducing their operating
costs. In addition, MCLPA eliminate the need for high-maintenance; tunable
cavity filters that should further reduce costs.
We
work
closely with our customers throughout the design process in refining and
developing their amplifier specifications. We use the latest equipment and
computer aided design and modeling, solid-state device physics, advanced digital
signal processing, and digital control systems, in developing our products.
The
integration of our design and production is a factor in our ability to provide
our customers with high reliability, low distortion and low maintenance
amplifiers.
Technology
Wireless
Transmit Technology
.
A
typical wireless communications system comprises a geographic region containing
a number of cells, each with a base station, which are networked to form a
service provider's coverage area. Each base station or cell site houses the
equipment that transmits and receives telephone calls to and from the cellular
subscriber within the cell and the switching office of the local wire line
telephone system. Such equipment includes a series of transceivers, power
amplifiers, tunable cavity filters and an antenna. In a single channel system,
each channel requires a separate transceiver, power amplifier and tunable cavity
filter. The power amplifier within the base station receives a relatively weak
signal from the transceiver and significantly boosts the power of the outgoing
wireless signal so that it can be broadcast throughout the cell. The radio
power
levels necessary to transmit the signal over the required range must be achieved
without distorting the modulation characteristics of the signal. The signal
must
also be amplified with linearity in order to remain in the assigned channel
with
low distortion or interference with adjacent channels.
Because
cellular operators are allocated a small RF spectrum and certain channels,
it is
necessary to make efficient use of the spectrum to enable optimum system
capacity. By amplifying all channels with minimum distortion at the same time,
rather than inefficient use of single channel amplification, one obtains better
system capacity. A MCLPA combines the performance capabilities of many single
carrier amplifiers into one unit, eliminating the need for numerous single
carrier amplifiers and their corresponding tunable cavity filters. These MCLPA
require less space than multiple single channel amplifiers and their
corresponding tunable cavity filters, which reduce the size and cost of a base
station.
MCLPA
create distortion products, which can cause adjacent channel interference.
The
minimization of these distortion products requires sophisticated technology.
This is accomplished through interference cancellation techniques such as "pre
distortion" and "feed forward" accompanied by highly advanced control and
processing technology. We have developed certain proprietary technology and
methods to achieve minimal distortion in our amplifiers, technically called
pre
distortion and feed- forward correction. We use three distinct technologies
(1)
linear class A and AB amplifiers, (2) pre distorted class A and AB amplifiers
and (3) pre distortion feed-forward amplifiers. Our proprietary leading edge
products contain patented pre distortion and proprietary feed-forward technology
combined in a proprietary automatic correction technique.
All
amplifiers create distortion when they are run at a high power level. In an
ideal case the output of the amplifier would faithfully reproduce the input
signal without any distortion. In real life, however, distortion characteristics
are produced. These distortion products can cause interference with another
caller’s channel, which in turn produces poor call quality. By using a simple,
patented technology, we recreate the distortion for the amplifier in such a
manner to cancel the interference signals.
Feed-forward
cancellation involves taking the distortion created by the amplifier and
processing it in such a way that when it is added back into the amplifier having
been pre-distorted and combined with the feed forward technology, distortion
cancellation occurs. We believe that our patented technology has the most unique
and potent technology for distortion cancellation. Furthermore, we have selected
linear class AB technology for our base amplifier which we believe also has
superior distortion characteristics compared to other competitors because it
is
easier to pre-distort. Thus the three key ingredients (1) linear class A and
AB
amplifiers, (2) pre distortion technology and (c) feed-forward technology enable
us to produce MCLPA for our major OEM customers.
Markets
The
market for wireless communications services has grown substantially during
the
past decade as cellular wireless local loop, 3G and other new and emerging
applications (such as W-CDMA) have become increasingly accessible and affordable
to growing numbers of consumers.
Cellular
Market.
The
market for cellular communications still accounts for a fairly large portion
of
the wireless services.
Wireless
Local Loop
/W-Max
.
Wireless
local loop and Wi-Max systems are increasingly being adopted in developing
markets to more quickly implement telephone and Data communication services.
In
certain developing countries, wireless local loop and Wi-Max systems provide
an
attractive alternative to copper and fiber optic cable based systems, with
the
potential to be implemented more quickly and at lower cost than wire line
telephone systems. The Company designs, manufactures and markets MCLPA and
single channel amplifiers for infrastructure equipment systems in the wireless
local loop and Wi-Max market in the 2 and 3.5 GHz bands.
Custom
Communications and Other Markets
.
The
custom communications market consists of small niche segments within the larger
communications market:long-haul radio communications, land mobile
communications, surveillance communications, ground-to-air communications,
microwave communications, broadband communications and telemetry tracking.
The
Company sells custom amplifiers and related products to these
segments.
Products
We
design
and sell multi-carrier transmit amplifiers and low noise receive amplifiers
for
the cellular communications market, as well as the PCS and wireless local loop
segments of the wireless communications industry. We also provide a large number
of catalog and custom amplifiers to OEMs and to other customers in the
communications market in general.
Multicarrier
Linear Power Amplifiers (MCLPA).
When a
cellular or PCS user places a call, the call is processed through a base
station, amplified, and then transmitted on to the person receiving the call.
Therefore, all base stations require amplifiers (MCLPA) whether they are being
used for cellular, PCS or 3G (third generation) local loop applications. We
design and manufacture these amplifiers. The objective is to provide a quality
product at a good price and to have exemplary reliability. Management believes
that our products with patented pre-distortion technology, core linear amplifier
technology, and proprietary feed-forward technology, achieve all of the
objectives mentioned above. Our MCLPA are a unique line of ultra linear devices,
which utilize a proprietary pre-distortion and phase locked feed forward
architecture.
High
Power Linear Amplifiers.
Our
product line of linear amplifiers have a high third-order intercept point,
which
translates to better call quality. These high power amplifiers are supplied
as
modules or plug in enclosures. The communication bands available are NMT-450,
AMPS, TACS, ETACS, 3G and PCS. The output power ranges from 1 to 200 Watts.
These amplifiers can be used in instances where service providers only need
a
single transmit channel.
W-CDMA
Amplifier Development.
In
2005/6, we completed the development of a wide band 80W MCLPA with Digital
Signal Processing technology and Wi-Max Products.
Local
Loop and Wi-Max Amplifiers
.
Local
loop and Wi-Max amplifiers are designed with a proprietary circuit to achieve
a
high linearity, which translates to better call quality through the mini cell.
These amplifiers can be ordered as modules or in a rack
configuration.
Low
Noise Amplifiers, Cellular, PCS, GSM, W-CDMA and WI-MAX
amplifiers are manufactured with a mix of silicon, LDMOS and GaAsFET devices.
These amplifiers offer the user the lowest noise and the highest intercept
point, while maintaining good efficiency. Received calls at a base station
are
low in level due to the fact that hand held cellular phones typically operate
at
half a watt power level. This weak signal has to be amplified clearly which
is
done by using our low noise amplifier. All amplifiers undergo a 72-hour burn-in
period to ensure reliable filed operation.
Communication
Amplifiers
.
These
amplifiers are designed for cellular and PCN/PCS applications and use GaAs
or
Silicon Bipolar FET devices. The transmit amplifiers are optimized for low
distortion products. Custom configurations are available for all communication
amplifiers. This line of products is aimed at the single channel base station
users employing the digital cellular standards (CDMA, 3G and TDMA).
Our
wireless telecommunications amplifiers can be configured as modules separate
plug-in amplifier units or integrated subsystems. Our products are integrated
into systems by OEM customers, and therefore must be engineered to be compatible
with industry standards and with certain customer specifications, such as
frequency, power, linearity and built-in test (BIT) for automatic fault
diagnostics.
Product
Warranty
We
warranty new products against defects in materials and workmanship generally
for
a period of one (1) year from the date of shipment. To date, we have not
experienced a material amount of warranty claims.
Backlog/Future
Orders
We
regularly review our backlog (which includes projected future orders from
customers) that we expect to ship over the next 12 months. We have had to change
schedules and delay orders depending on customer needs. Customer schedules
or
requirements may frequently change and in some cases result in cancellation
of
orders, in response to which the Company has to change its production schedule.
Changes and cancellations exist since, among other matters, the wireless
communications industry is characterized by rapid technological change, new
product development, product obsolescence and evolving industry standards.
In
addition, restructuring of the company resulted in low activity during most
of
2005 and 2006. This uncertainty may lead to postponement or cancellation of
future or current orders. In addition, as technology changes, corporations
are
frequently requested to update and provide new prototypes in accordance with
new
specifications if products become obsolete or inferior. Therefore, we have
been
focusing on strategic partnerships to provide better quality solutions to our
partners with higher margin sales opportunities.
The
Company has no significant backlog of orders. In the present state of the
telecommunications industry there is a reluctance of companies to commit to
large blanket orders. We expect to see this trend, of just in time orders,
to
continue during 2008. The Company would like to stress, although useful for
scheduling production, backlog as of any particular date may not be a reliable
indicator of sales for any future period.

Competition
Amplifier
Products
Our
ability to compete successfully and operate profitably depends in part upon
the
rate of which OEM customers incorporate our products into their systems. We
believe that a substantial majority of the present worldwide production of
power
amplifiers is captive within the manufacturing operations of a small number
of
wireless telecommunications OEMs and offered for sale as part of their wireless
telecommunications systems. Our future success is dependent upon the extent
to
which these OEMs elect to purchase from outside sources rather than manufacture
their own amplification products. There can be no assurance that OEM customers
will incorporate our products into their systems or that in general OEM
customers will continue to rely, or expand their reliance, on external sources
of supply for their power amplification products. Since each OEM product
involves a separate proposal by the amplifier supplier, there can be no
assurance that our current OEM customers will not rely upon internal production
capabilities or a non-captive competitor for future amplifier product needs.
Our
OEM customers continuously evaluate whether to manufacture their own
amplification products or purchase them from outside sources. These OEM
customers are large manufacturers of wireless telecommunications equipment
who
could elect to enter the non-captive market and compete directly with us. Such
increased competition could materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Certain
of our competitors have substantially greater technical, financial, sales and
marketing, distribution and other resources, and have greater name recognition
and market acceptance of their products and technologies. In addition, certain
of these competitors are already established in the wireless amplification
market, but we believe we can compete with them effectively. No assurance can
be
given that our competitors will not develop new technologies or enhancements
to
existing products or introduce new products that will offer superior price
or
performance features. To the extent that OEMs increase their reliance on
external sources for their power amplification needs more competitors could
be
attracted to the market.
We
expect
our competitors to offer new and existing products at prices necessary to gain
or retain market share. We expect to experience significant price competition,
which could have a materially adverse effect on gross margins. Certain of our
competitors have substantial financial resources, which may enable them to
withstand sustained price competition or downturns in the power amplification
market. Currently, we compete primarily with non-captive suppliers of power
amplification products. We believe that our competition, and ultimately our
success, will be based primarily upon service, pricing, reputation and the
ability to meet the delivery schedules of our customers. During 2005, we
operated under severe cash flow circumstances, which restricted our sales and
marketing efforts.
Manufacturing
We
assemble, test, package, and ship products at our manufacturing facilities
located in Raritan, New Jersey. This facility includes a separate assembly
and
test facility for various custom products.
Our
manufacturing process consists of purchasing components, assembling and testing
components and subassemblies, integrating the subassemblies into a final product
and testing the product. Our amplifiers consist of a variety of subassemblies
and components which we designed or specified, including housings, harnesses,
cables, packaged RF power transistors, integrated circuits and printed circuit
boards. Most of these components are manufactured by others and are shipped
to
us for final assembly. Each of our products receives extensive in process and
final quality inspections and tests.
Our
devices, components and other electrical and mechanical subcomponents are
generally purchased from multiple suppliers. We do not have any written
agreement with any of our suppliers. We have followed a general policy of
multiple sourcing for most of our suppliers in order to assure a continuous
flow
of such supplies. However, we purchase certain transistors produced by a single
manufacturer because of the high quality of its components. We believe it is
unlikely that such transistors would become unavailable, however, if that were
to occur, there are multiple manufacturers of generally comparable transistors.
We believe that the distributors of such transistors maintain adequate inventory
levels, which would mitigate any adverse effect on our production in the event
unavailability or shortage of such transistors. If for any reason, we could
not
obtain comparable replacement transistors or could not return its products
to
operate with the replacement transistors, our business, financial condition
and
results of operations could be adversely affected.
We
currently utilize discrete circuit technology on printed circuit boards that
we
design and are provided by suppliers to our specifications. All transistors
and
other semiconductor devices are purchased in sealed packages ready for assembly
and testing. Others also manufacture other components such as resistors,
capacitors, connectors or mechanical supported subassemblies. Components are
ordered from suppliers under master purchase orders with deliveries timed to
meet our production schedules. As a result, we maintain a low inventory of
components, which could result in delay in production in the event of delays
in
such deliveries.
We
purchased automated surface mount machinery to enhance our manufacturing ability
for amplifiers as well as wireless internet products, which was installed during
the first quarter of 2000. The equipment has provided improved efficiency in
production and faster turn around for certain products.
Research,
Engineering and Development
We
research, engineering and development efforts are focused on the design of
amplifiers for new protocols, the improvement of existing product performance,
cost reductions and improvements in the manufacturability of existing products.
We
have
historically devoted a significant portion of our resources to research,
engineering and development programs. Our research, engineering and development
expenses in fiscal 2007 and 2006 were approximately $436,000 and $338,000,
respectively, and represented approximately 418% and 219% respectively, of
net
revenues. These efforts were primarily dedicated to the development of the
linear feed forward, high power, low distortion amplifiers, resulting in our
models for 3G W-CDMA
and
Wi-Max.
During
most of 2007 and 2006, we spent substantial sums to refine our 3G 80W W-CDMA
amplifier and develop Wi-Max RF amplifier products.
We
use
the latest equipment and computer aided design and modeling, solid-state device
physics, advanced digital signal processing and digital control systems, in
the
development of our products in the specialized engineering and research
departments.
We
use a
CAD environment employing networked workstations to model and test new circuits.
This design environment, together with our experience in interference
cancellation technology and modular product architecture, allows us to rapidly
define, develop and deliver new and enhanced products and subsystems sought
by
our customers.
The
markets in which the Company and OEM customers compete are characterized by
rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and continuous
improvements in products and services.
Patents,
Proprietary Technology and Other Intellectual Property
Our
ability to compete successfully and achieve future revenue growth will depend,
in part, on our ability to protect proprietary technology and operate without
infringing the rights of others. We have a policy of seeking patents, when
appropriate, on inventions resulting from its ongoing research and development
and manufacturing activities.
Presently,
we have been granted a patent (No. 5,606,286) by the United States Patent and
Trademark Office with respect to its Pre-Distortion and Pre-Distortion
Linearization technology which, we believe, is more effective in reducing
distortion then other currently available technology. There can be no assurance
that our patent will not be challenged or circumvented by competitors.
Notwithstanding
our active pursuit of patent protection, we believe that the success of our
amplifier business depends more on its specifications, CAE/CAD design and
modeling tools, technical processes and employee expertise than on patent
protection. We generally enter into confidentiality and non-disclosure
agreements with our employees and limits access to and distribution
of our proprietary technology. We may in the future be notified
that
our
proprietary technology
is infringing certain patent and/or other
intellectual property rights of others. Although there are no such pending
lawsuits against us or unresolved notices that we are infringing intellectual
property rights of others, there can be no assurance that litigation or
infringement claims will not occur in the future.
Governmental
Regulations
Our
customers must obtain regulatory approval to operate their base stations. The
United States Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") has regulations that
impose more stringent RF and microwave emissions standards on the
telecommunications industry. There can be no assurance that our customers will
comply with such regulations, which could materially adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations. We manufacture our
products according to specifications provided by our customers, which
specifications are given to comply with applicable regulations. We do not
believe that costs involved with manufacturing to meet specifications will
have
a material impact on our operations. There can be no assurances that the
adoption of future regulations would not have a material adverse affect on
us.
Employees
As
of
April 8, 2008, we had a total of 13 full-time employees: 2 in operations, 8
in
engineering and 3 in administration. We employ one consultant in sales and
marketing and one in engineering. We believe our future performance will depend
in large part on our ability to retain highly skilled employees. None of our
employees are represented by a labor union and we have not experienced any
work
stoppages. We consider our employee relations to be good.
Environmental
Regulations
We
are
subject to Federal, state and local governmental regulations relating to the
storage, discharge, handling, emissions, generation, manufacture and disposal
of
toxic or other hazardous substances used to manufacture our products. We believe
that we are currently in compliance in all material respects with such
regulations. Failure to comply with current or future regulations could result
in the imposition of substantial fines, suspension of production, alteration
of
its manufacturing process, cessation of operations or other actions which could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results
of
operations.
In
addition to other information in this Annual Report, the following important
factors should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our business,
because such factors currently have a significant impact on the Company’s
business, prospects, financial condition and results of
operations.

information.

We
believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our investors. There
may be events in the future, however, that we are not accurately able to predict
or over which we have no control. The risk factors listed below, as well as
any
cautionary language in or incorporated by reference into this Annual Report,
provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual
results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our
forward-looking statements. Before you invest in our company, you should be
aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in the risk factors
below, elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into this Annual Report and
other events that we have not predicted or assessed could have a material
adverse effect on our earnings, financial condition or business. In such case,
the trading price of our securities could decline and you may lose all or part
of your investment.
We
have a recent history of losses and expect losses to
continue.
We
have
incurred net losses of $1,163,205 and $1,891,235 for the years ended December
31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These losses were due primarily to
substantially reduced sales, against which our cost-cutting efforts have yielded
minimal results. We are expecting increased sales for amplifier products to
compensate for the expenses, however we have reduced staff levels, therefore
there is no guarantee that this will happen. Reduced demand for our products
by
our key customer has reduced our sales significantly. With our reduced staff
levels, we may not be able to compete. Further, we have not generated sufficient
sales volume to cover our overhead costs and generate profits. We have minimized
losses by staff reduction; this could result in loss of market share from which
we may not be able to recover. We expect that our losses will increase and
will
continue until such time, if ever, as we are able to successfully manufacture
and market our products on a larger scale and therefore generate higher profit
margins. We will need to generate a substantial increase in revenues to become
profitable. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will ever become or remain
profitable. In addition, we had an accumulated deficit of $28,005,372 as of
December 31, 2007.
We
have limited cash available, and may not have sufficient cash to continue our
business operations without the additional financing.
To
date,
we have financed our operations principally through the private placement of
shares of common stock. Our current burn rate is approximately $100,000 per
month, and we will require substantial additional financing at various intervals
for manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities, our research and
development programs, and for operating expenses including intellectual property
protection and enforcement. We may seek additional funding from public or
private financings, but there is no assurance that such additional funding
will
be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Accordingly, we may not
be
able to secure the significant funding which is required to maintain and
continue development programs at their current levels or at levels that may
be
required in the future. If we cannot secure adequate financing, we may be
required to delay, scale back or eliminate one or more of its development
programs or to enter into license or other arrangements with third parties
to
commercialize products or technologies. Our auditors have included an
“uncertainty paragraph” in their audit report on our financial statements
regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.
The
report from our independent auditors includes an explanatory paragraph regarding
the doubt that we can continue as a going concern.
The
auditors’ report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2007 and 2006 both include an explanatory paragraph stating that our losses,
lack of cash and otherwise limited financial resources raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as
a
going concern is subject to our ability to realize a profit and/or obtain
funding from outside sources. Our plan to address our ability to continue as
a
going concern, include: (1) obtaining additional funding from the sale of
securities; (2) increasing revenues from the sales of our products; and (3)
obtaining loans and grants from various financial and/or governmental
institutions, where possible. Although we believe that we will be able to obtain
the necessary funding to allow us to remain a going concern through the methods
discussed above, there can be no assurances that such methods will prove
successful.
We
will continue to incur losses and may never achieve
profitability.
We
will
continue to incur losses as we engage in the development of our products. There
can be no assurance that we will ever be able to achieve or sustain market
acceptance, profitability or positive cash flow. Our ultimate success will
depend on many factors, including whether our amplifier products will be
successfully marketed and accepted by the marketplace. Even with additional
capital, we may not be able to execute our current business plan and fund
business operations long enough to achieve positive cash flow. Furthermore,
we
may be forced to reduce our expenses and cash expenditures to a material extent,
which would impair our ability to execute our business plan.
Our
success relies upon the growth of wireless telecommunications services.
The
demand for our products will depend in large part upon continued and growing
demand within the wireless telecommunications industry for power amplifiers.
During 2006 restructuring of our business resulted in low activity and recovery
of our business has been slow, therefore the demand for our products will remain
subject to great uncertainty from quarter to quarter.
Our
lack of automated manufacturing processes and our dependence on third party
manufacturers could adversely affect our business.
We
have
consistently reviewed our automated manufacturing needs in order to control
our
production schedule. To date, we have not established a fully automated
manufacturing facility although we have purchased an automated surface mount
machine and reflow process oven. Our wireless internet products are manufactured
at offshore facilities, which are our sole suppliers. Until such time as we
are
able to establish such facilities, we expect to be dependent on third party
manufacturers. We cannot be sure that these third party manufacturers will
be
able to fulfill our production commitment. Furthermore, we do not have written
agreements with these manufacturers. Our inability to obtain timely deliveries
of acceptable assemblies could delay our ability to deliver products to our
customers, and would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. In addition, if these manufacturers
increase their production costs, we may not be able to recover such cost
increases under the fixed price commitments with our customers.
Our
limited number of suppliers could adversely affect our
business.
Power
transistors and certain other key components used in our products for our
amplifiers are currently available from only a limited number of suppliers.
Certain of our suppliers have limited operating histories and limited financial
and other resources. Our suppliers may prove to be unreliable sources of certain
components. Furthermore, we have no written agreements with our suppliers.
In
the past, we have not purchased key components in large volumes but anticipate
that our need for component parts will increase. If we are unable to obtain
sufficient quantities of components, particularly power transistors, we could
experience delays or reductions in product shipments. Such delays or reductions
could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations. Additionally, such delays or reductions may have a
material adverse effect on our relationships with customers and result in the
termination of existing orders and/or a permanent loss in our future sales.
Our
wireless internet products are manufactured at offshore facilities. The lack
of
supply from this source due to any reason could adversely impact our business.
Our
success will rely on our ability to enter into strategic
partnerships.
We
are
currently developing and expect to continue to develop strategic partnerships
and other relationships in order to expand our business. The failure to
successfully develop such relationships could have a material adverse effect
on
our business, financial condition and result of operations.
Our
success relies on a small number of customers.
During
2007, 3 customers accounted for substantially all net sales and substantially
all accounts receivable at December 31, 2007. We anticipate that sales of our
products to relatively few customers will account for a majority of our 2008
revenues. The reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from one or more of
our
significant customers would materially and adversely affect our financial
condition and results of operation. Moreover, we may experience significant
fluctuations in net sales, gross margins and operating results in the future
as
a result of the uncertainty of such sales.
Our
limited marketing experience may adversely affect our
business.
We
are
not sure whether our marketing efforts will be successful or that we will be
able to maintain competitive sales and distribution capabilities.
Our
management owns a significant amount of our outstanding common
stock.
Our
officers, directors and persons who may be deemed our affiliates beneficially
own, in the aggregate, and have the right to vote approximately 27% of our
issued and outstanding common stock, not including common stock options they
may
own. In 2005, control shifted to John Chase Lee, our president and CEO, who
loaned us $650,000 in connection with a Note Purchase Agreement. In settlement
of these loans, Mr. Lee was issued 131,000 shares of our Series C Convertible
Preferred Stock, which is convertible at any time into 13,100,000 shares of
common stock. As of December 31, 2007, Mr. Lee had converted all of his
preferred shares into common stock. As a result, Mr. Lee holds approximately
22%
of our outstanding voting stock on a fully diluted basis. Accordingly, Mr.
Lee
and other affiliates may be in a position to affect the election of all of
our
directors and control the company.
Our
compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal
controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly.
It
may be
costly, difficult, and time consuming for us to develop and implement the
internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other
finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal
controls and reporting procedures. We have substantial material weaknesses
in
our controls and we may not have the resources to remediate those weaknesses.
If
we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant
certifications required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
Our
success depends on our ability to manage the size of our
operations.
We
downsized some of our operations in order to maintain competitiveness and reduce
our operating losses. We have also explored joint ventures and mergers in order
to achieve these results, but have not consummated any such transaction. If
we
do not increase our sales, decrease overhead expenditure or do not adequately
manage the size of our operations, our results of operations will be materially
adversely affected.
Declining
average sales prices could adversely affect our business.
If
wireless internet and telecommunications customers come under increasing price
pressure from service providers, we could expect to experience downward pricing
pressure on our products. In addition, competition among non-captive amplifier
suppliers could increase the downward pricing pressure on our amplifier
products. To date, we have not experienced such pressure. As our customers
frequently negotiate supply arrangements with us far in advance of product
delivery dates, we often must commit to price reductions before we can determine
whether cost reductions can be obtained. If we are unable to achieve cost
reductions, our gross margins will decline and our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be materially and adversely
affected.
Rapid
technological change and intense competition could adversely affect our
business.
The
wireless telecommunications equipment industry is extremely competitive and
is
characterized by rapid technological change, new product development, product
obsolescence and evolving industry standards. In addition, price competition
in
this market is intense and characterized by significant price erosion over
the
life of a product. Currently, we compete primarily with non-captive suppliers
of
power amplification products. We believe that our success will be based
primarily upon service, pricing, reputation, and our ability to meet product
delivery schedules. Our existing and potential customers continuously evaluate
whether to manufacture their own amplification products or to purchase such
products from outside sources. These customers and other large manufacturers
of
wireless telecommunications equipment could elect to enter the market and
compete directly with us. Many of our competitors have significantly greater
financial, technical, manufacturing, sales and marketing capabilities and
research and development personnel and other resources than us and have achieved
greater name recognition of their existing products and technologies. In order
for us to successfully compete, we must continue to develop new products, keep
pace with advancing technologies and competitive innovations and successfully
market our products. Our inability to successfully compete against our larger
competitors will have a materially adverse affect on our business, financial
condition and operations.
In
addition, we are not sure whether new products or alternative technology will
render our current or planned products obsolete or inferior. Rapid technological
development by others may result in our products becoming obsolete before we
recover a significant portion of the research, development and commercialization
expenses we incurred with respect to those products.
Our
business will be adversely affected if we do not keep up with the rapid
technological change, evolving industry standards and changing user
requirements.
To
be
successful, we must adapt to our rapidly changing market by continually
enhancing the technologies used for communications. If we are unable, for
technical, legal, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a timely manner in
response to changing market conditions or user requirements, our business could
be materially adversely affected. Significant issues concerning the commercial
use of communication technologies, including security, reliability, cost, ease
of use and quality of service, remain unresolved and may inhibit the growth
of
businesses relying on the Internet. Our future success will depend, in part,
on
our ability to meet these challenges. Among the most important challenges facing
us is the need to:
|
·
|
effectively
use established technologies;
|
|
·
|
continue
to develop our technical expertise;
and
|
|
·
|
respond
to emerging industry standards and other technical
changes.
|
All
of
these changes must be met in a timely and cost-effective manner. We cannot
assure you that we will succeed in effectively meeting these challenges and
our
failure to do so could materially and adversely affect our
business.
Risks
associated with sales outside of the United States may adversely affect our
business.
International
sales represented substantially all of our net revenues for the years ended
December 31, 2007 and 2006. We expect that international sales will continue
to
account for a significant portion of our net revenues in the future. To the
extent that we do not achieve and maintain substantial international sales,
our
business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially
and
adversely affected.
Sales
of
our products outside of the United States are denominated in U.S. dollars.
An
increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would
make our products more expensive and, therefore, potentially less competitive
outside the United States. Additional risks inherent in our sales abroad
include:
|
·
|
the
impact of recessionary environments in economies outside the United
States;
|
|
·
|
generally
longer receivables collection
periods;
|
|
·
|
unexpected
changes in regulatory requirements;
|
|
·
|
tariffs
and other trade barriers;
|
|
·
|
potentially
adverse tax consequences;
|
|
·
|
reduced
protection for intellectual property rights in some
countries;
|
|
·
|
the
burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws.
|
These
factors may have an adverse effect on our future international sales and,
consequently, on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Our
operating results may vary from quarter to quarter in future periods, and as
a
result, our stock price may fluctuate or decline.
Our
quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future due to
a
variety of factors that could affect our revenues or our expenses in any
particular quarter. Factors that may affect our quarterly results
include:
|
·
|
our
ability to attract and retain
customers;
|
|
·
|
development
of competitive products;
|
|
·
|
the
short term nature of manufacturing and engineering orders to
date;
|
|
·
|
unforeseen
changes in operating expenses;
|
|
·
|
the
loss of key employees; and
|
|
·
|
unexpected
revenue shortfalls.
|
A
substantial portion of our operating expenses is related to personnel costs
and
overhead, which we cannot adjust quickly and are therefore relatively fixed
in
the short term. Our operating expense levels are based, in significant part,
on
our expectations of future revenues on a quarterly basis. If actual revenues
are
below our expectations, our results of operations and financial condition would
be materially and adversely affected because a relatively small amount of our
costs and expenses are proportionate with revenues in the short
term.
Due
to
all of the foregoing factors and the other risks discussed in this Annual
Report, it is possible that in some future periods our results of operations
may
be below the expectations of investors and public market analysts which may
cause our stock price to fluctuate or decline.
We
are dependent upon management and technical personnel.
Due
to
the specialized nature of our business, we are highly dependent on the continued
service of, and on our ability to attract and retain, qualified technical and
marketing personnel, particularly those involved in the development of new
products and processes and the manufacture and enhancement of our existing
products. In addition, as part of our team-based sales approach, we dedicate
specific design engineers to service the requirements of individual customers.
The loss of any such engineer could adversely affect our ability to obtain
future purchase orders from the customers to which such engineer was dedicated.
We have employment or non-competition agreements with most of our current design
engineers and test technicians. The competition for such personnel is intense,
and the loss of any such persons, as well as the failure to recruit additional
key technical personnel in a timely manner, could have a material adverse effect
on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We
rely on the ability to protect proprietary technology; risk of third party
claims of infringement may affect our business.
Our
ability to compete successfully and achieve future revenue growth will depend,
in part, on our ability to protect proprietary technology and operate without
infringing upon the rights of others. Although there are no pending lawsuits
regarding our technology or notices that we are infringing upon intellectual
property rights of others, litigation or infringement claims may occur in the
future. Such litigation or claims could result in substantial costs, and
diversion of resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations. We generally enter into
confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our employees and limit
access to and distribution of proprietary information. However, we cannot be
sure whether such measures will provide adequate protection for our trade
secrets or other proprietary information, or whether our trade secrets or
proprietary technology will otherwise become known or independently developed
by
our competitors. Our failure to protect proprietary technology could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
We
do not plan to pay dividends on our common stock
.
We
have
never paid any dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay dividends
on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Any earnings that we may realize
in the foreseeable future will be retained to finance our growth.
Governmental
regulations and environmental regulations can have a large impact on our
business.
Our
customers must obtain regulatory approval to operate their base stations. The
United States Federal Communications Commission has regulations that impose
stringent radio frequency and microwave emissions standards on the
telecommunications industry. Our customers are required to comply with such
regulations. The failure of our customers to comply with these regulations
could
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of
operations. We manufacture products according to specifications provided by
our
customers, which specifications are required to comply with applicable
regulations. We do not believe that costs involved with manufacturing to meet
specifications will have a material impact on our operations. We cannot be
sure
whether the adoption of future regulations would have a material adverse affect
on our business.
We
are
subject to Federal, state and local governmental regulations relating to the
storage, discharge, handling, emissions, generation, manufacture and disposal
of
toxic or other hazardous substances used to manufacture our products. We believe
that we are currently in compliance in all material respects with such
regulations. Failure to comply with current or future regulations could result
in the imposition of substantial fines on our company, suspension of our
production, alteration of our manufacturing process, cessation of our operations
or other actions, which could materially and adversely affect our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Our
common stock may be considered "a penny stock."
The
SEC
has adopted regulations that generally define "penny stock" to be an equity
security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to
specific exemptions. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling
these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction,
obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser
is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict
the
ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the
ability of investors hereunder to sell their shares. In addition, since our
common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, investors may find it
difficult to obtain accurate quotations of the stock and may experience a lack
of buyers to purchase such stock or a lack of market makers to support the
stock
price.
There
are risks associated with our stock trading on the OTC Bulletin Board rather
than a national exchange.
There
are
significant consequences associated with our stock trading on the OTC Bulletin
Board rather than a national exchange. The effects of not being able to list
our
securities on a national exchange include:
|
·
|
Limited
release of the market prices of our
securities;
|
|
·
|
Limited
news coverage of us;
|
|
·
|
Limited
interest by investors in our
securities;
|
|
·
|
Volatility
of our stock price due to low trading
volume;
|
|
·
|
Increased
difficulty in selling our securities in certain states due to “blue sky”
restrictions;
|
|
·
|
Limited
ability to issue additional securities or to secure
financing.
|
Anti-takeover
provisions may adversely affect the value of our outstanding
securities.
In
2005,
we designated 500,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and issued
140,000 shares of such stock in settlement of loans. Pursuant to our Certificate
of Incorporation, our Board of Directors may designate up to 4,500,000
additional shares of preferred stock in the future with such preferences,
limitations and relative rights as they may determine without stockholder
approval. The rights of the holders of our common stock will be subject to,
and
may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock
outstanding or that may we may issue in the future. The issuance of preferred
stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions
and
other corporate purposes, could have the effect of delaying or preventing a
change in control of our company without further action by the stockholders.
In
addition, we are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of
the
Delaware General Corporation Law. Section 203 prohibits us from engaging in
a
"business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three
years after the date of the transaction in which the persons became an
interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a
prescribed manner. The application of Section 203 also could have the effect
of
delaying or preventing a change of control of our company.
Additional
authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock available for issuance,
and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding
options and warrants may adversely affect the market.
We
are
authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of our common stock. As of December
31,
2007, there were 50,028,293 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding,
which amount does not include the following options and warrants:
|
(1)
|
20,000
exercisable at $.20 through March 2010
|
|
(2)
|
600,000
exercisable at $.20 through August
2009
|
|
(3)
|
750,000
exercisable at $.20 through August
2009
|
As
of
December 31, 2007 we had at least 42,001,707 shares of authorized but unissued
common stock available for issuance without further shareholder approval after
taking into consideration the following: exercise of the above options and
warrants totaling 1,370,000 shares, exercise of options granted to our
securities lawyer of 1,000,000 shares, and conversion of 130,000 preferred
shares into 13,000,000 common shares. Any issuance of additional shares of
our
common stock may cause our current shareholders to suffer significant dilution,
which may adversely affect the market for our securities.
In
addition, we have 5,000,000 shares of authorized preferred stock. While we
have
no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, our Board
of
Directors has the authority, without shareholder approval, to create and issue
one or more series of such preferred stock and to determine the voting, dividend
and other rights of holders of such preferred stock. At December 31, 2007,
we
had no shares of Series C Convertible preferred shares outstanding. Additional
issuances of any of our preferred stock could have an adverse effect on the
holders of our common stock.
Limitation
on director liability may adversely affect the value of our common
stock.
As
permitted by Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation limits the liability
of our directors for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty except
for liability in certain instances. As a result of our charter provision and
Delaware law, you may have limited rights to recover against our directors
for
breach of their fiduciary duty.
We
may lose our eligibility for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and
our securities may be removed from the OTCBB.
On
April
18, 2007, the National Association of Securities dealers (“NASD”) notified us
that because we were delinquent in our filing of this Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2007; our securities would be removed from quotation on
the
OTCBB effective May 22, 2007 unless this form is filed by 5:30 p.m. E.S.T.
on
May 18, 2007. We filed our Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 2007
late. If this Form 10-KSB is filed late would have three (3) delinquencies
within the past 24 month period. OTCBB rules provide that an OTCBB issuer that
is delinquent three times in a 24 month period will be ineligible for OTCBB
quotation for a period of one year. Accordingly, if we are late again either
now
or within the coming year, we may become ineligible for OTCBB quotation for
a
period of one year which will severely limit the marketability of our common
stock.

Legal
Proceedings.
|
From
time
to time, the Company is party to what it believes are routine litigation and
proceedings that may be considered as part of the ordinary course of its
business. Except for the proceedings noted below, the Company is not aware
of
any pending litigation or proceedings that could have a material effect on
the
Company's results of operations or financial condition.
1.
A
customer filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial
District of the State of Florida on January 23, 1997 alleging breach of
contract. During 2000, the Company settled with that customer at a cost of
$175,000; $25,000 was to be paid quarterly over two years. $95,000 remained
unpaid at December 31, 2006.
2.
In
April
2004, a law firm filed a judgment against the Company in the amount of
approximately $40,000 in connection with non-payment of legal fees owed to
it.
Inasmuch as this is a perfection of an already recorded liability, management
does not believe that the judgment will have a material impact on the financial
position of the Company. In March 2005, a settlement was reached whereby the
Company made a down payment of $2,500 and agreed to pay the balance in 24 equal
monthly installments of approximately $1,600. The last payment made was in
November 2006 and the Company is in default of the settlement agreement. There
is a remaining balance of $7,917 as of December 31, 2007.

MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.
|
Results
of Operations - Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2007 compared to Fiscal Year
ended December 31, 2006.
Revenues
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 decreased by $50,102 from $154,310
to $104,208, or 32% compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. This
was due to build up of inventory during the previous year at our previously
largest customer. We believe that our present financial condition has hampered
our ability to make sales to our customers, all of whom are larger than us
and
are concerned about our ability to survive in business.
The
majority of the amplifier sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 were
obtained from the Wireless Local Loop amplifier products. The Company has
continued to develop and refine its amplifier products for the wireless
communications market. Sales and marketing efforts have been focused on Asian
and now Israeli markets.
Cost
of
sales
was
$372,416 or 357% of sales during the year ended December 31, 2007, compared
to
252% during the same period for 2006. Our fixed overhead costs are relatively
high for our current sales volume. The decline in gross margin was principally
due to the lowered production while staff levels were maintained in preparation
for new product production. The Company is continuing to assess cost reduction
of its products and sales volume increases to improve gross margins in 2008,
but
currently our sales are too low to support our production costs and we cannot
expect to achieve a positive gross profit until sales increase
substantially.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased in 2007 by $801,171 to $483,213
from $1,284,384 in 2006. Expressed as a percentage of sales, the selling,
general and administrative expenses
(excluding
stock based compensation) were 464% in 2007 and 832% in 2006. The principal
factors contributing to the decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses were related to the following expenses incurred in 2006 that we did
not
incur in 2007: settlements with an officer and a former officer, resulting
in
additional officer compensation of approximately $385,000, issuance of
restricted common stock to our former secretary and public relations consultant
as payment for approximately $266,000 consulting fees in 2006.
Research,
engineering and development expenses were $435,782 representing 418% of net
sales in 2007 compared to $337,799 representing 219% of net sales in 2006.
Total
research expenditures increased $97,983 or 29%. In 2007 and 2006, the principal
activity of the business related to the design and production of product for
OEM
manufacturers, particularly for the W-CDMA amplifier. The research, engineering
and development expenses consist principally of salary cost for engineers and
the expenses of equipment purchases specifically for the design and testing
of
the prototype products. The Company's research and development efforts are
influenced by available funds and the level of effort required by the
engineering staff on customer specific projects. The Company used much of the
proceeds from private placements to increase its research spending to develop
and refine its products.
The
Company had other income in $63 in 2007. Other income in 2006 was of $3,292.
The
Company also sold New Jersey Net operating loss carryforwards pursuant to the
New Jersey Technology Certificate Transfer Program, receiving $102,393 in 2007
and $NIL in 2006
.
Interest
expense was $18,057 in 2007 and $18,001 in 2006, principally related to $300,000
of convertible notes issued in private placements in 2005.
As
a
result of the foregoing, the Company incurred net losses of $1,166,413 or $0.02
per share for the year ended December 31, 2007 compared with net
losses
of
$1,891,235 or $0.06 per share for the same period in 2006.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
refers to our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs.
We
have been generating the cash necessary to fund our operations from continual
loans from the John Lee. We have incurred a loss in each year since inception.
It is possible that we will incur further losses, that the losses may fluctuate,
and that such fluctuations may be substantial. As of December 31, 2007, we
had
an accumulated deficit
of
$28,005,372. Potential immediate sources of liquidity are private placements
of
common stock and funding in connection with the merger with Cellvine currently
being negotiated.
As
of
December 31, 2007, our current liabilities
exceeded
our cash and receivables by $2,049,816. Our current ratio was 0.0310 to 1.00,
and our ratio of accounts receivable to current liabilities was only 0.0038
to
1.00. This indicates that we will have difficulty meeting our obligations as
they come due. We are carrying $42,500 in inventory, of which $23,168 represents
component parts. Because of the lead times in our manufacturing process, we
replenish many items before we use everything we now have in stock. Accordingly,
we will need more cash to replenish our component parts inventory before we
are
able realize cash from all of our existing inventories.
As
of
December 31, 2007, we had cash in banks of $13,917 compared to an overdraft
of
$(36,140) at December 31, 2006. Overall our cash position improved by $50,057
during 2007. We have little cash and we are dependent on private placement
funds
to cover our working capital needs. Our cash used for operating
activities
was
$753,880. This year we repaid loans of to officers of $9,411.
Because
of our small number of customers and low sales volume, accounts receivable
balances and allowances for doubtful accounts do not reflect a consistent
relationship to sales. We determine our allowance for doubtful accounts based
on
a specific customer-by-customer review of collectiblity. Allowance for doubtful
accounts was $5,872 and $10,000 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Our
inventories decreased by $52,087 to $42,500 in 2007 compared to $94,587 in
2006,
a decrease of 55%.
The
Company has a lease obligation for its premises requiring minimum monthly
payments of approximately $6,000 through May 2008.
In
the
past, the officers of the Company have deferred a portion of their salaries
or
provided loans to the Company to meet short-term liquidity requirements. Where
possible, the Company has issued stock or granted warrants to certain vendors
in
lieu of cash payments, and may do so in the future. There can be no assurance
that any additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable
terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be
required to delay, scale back or eliminate its research, engineering and
development or manufacturing programs or obtain funds through arrangements
with
partners or others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain
of its technologies or potential products or other assets. Accordingly, the
inability to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on
the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
With
insufficient cash reserves and reduced revenues, we believe that we will have
great difficulty meeting our working capital needs over the next 12 months.
The
Company is presently dependent on cash flows generated from sales and financing
from private placements. Our failure to enter into additional private placements
of securities, consummate a merger with an appropriate partner or to
substantially improve our revenues will have serious adverse consequences and,
accordingly, there is substantial doubt in our ability to remain in business
over the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that any financing will
be
available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds
are
not available, the Company may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate
its
research, engineering and development or manufacturing programs or obtain funds
through arrangements with partners or others that may require the Company to
relinquish rights to certain of its technologies or potential products or other
assets. Accordingly, the inability to obtain such financing could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

Critical
Accounting Policies
1.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue
is recognized upon shipment of products to customers because our shipping terms
are F.O.B. shipping point. And there are generally no rights of return, customer
acceptance protocols, installation or any other post-shipment obligations.
All
of our products are custom built to customer specifications. We provide an
industry standard one-year limited warranty under which the customer may return
the defective product for repair or replacement.
Returns
received under warranty are not material relative to sales, nor are the costs
to
repair. All sales are final, except for warranty repair/replacement and there
is
no price protection. In addition, the only company post-shipment obligation
is
for warranty repair and replacement. Finally, we do not install product or
provide services for a fee.
2.
INVENTORIES
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined using the
first?in, first?out method. As virtually all of our products are made to
customer specifications, we do not keep finished goods in stock except for
completed customer orders that have not been shipped. Our work-in-progress
generally consists of customer orders that are in the process of manufacture
but
are not yet complete at the period end date. We review all of our components
for
obsolescence and excess quantities on a periodic basis and make the necessary
adjustments to net realizable value as deemed necessary.
3.
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
Because
of our small customer base, we determine our allowance for doubtful accounts
based on a specific customer-by-customer review of collectiblity. Therefore,
our
allowance for doubtful accounts and our provision for doubtful accounts may
not
bear a consistent relationship to sales but we believe that this is the most
accurate and conservative approach under our circumstances.
4.
USE OF
ESTIMATES
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required
to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date
of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The principal areas
that we use estimates in are: allowance for doubtful accounts; work-in-process
percentage of completion; accounting for stock based employee compensation;
and
inventory net realizable values.
5.
STOCK-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions
of
SFAS 123(R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that
transition method, compensation cost recognized in 2006 and beyond includes:
(a)
compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet
vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated
in
accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation
cost for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based
on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of
SFAS
123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated and there is no
cumulative effect upon adoption of SFAS 123(R).
Prior
to
adoption of SFAS 123(R) the Company used intrinsic-value method of accounting
for stock based-awards granted to employees. No stock-based compensation cost
is
included in the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 as no options
were
granted to employees during that period.
6.
LOSS
PER SHARE
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No.128 (SFAS No. 128), Earnings per Share,
specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings
per share for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common
stock.
Net
loss
per common share - basic and diluted is determined by dividing the net loss
by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Net loss
per
common share - diluted does not include potential common shares derived from
stock options and warrants because they are antidilutive.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
Management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls
and
procedures.
WI-TRON,
INC. carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation
of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer
and
the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based
upon that evaluation, the chief Executive and Principal Accounting Officer
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective both as of December 31, 2007 and the date of this filing, in timely
alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company's
periodic SEC filings relating to the Company. Our conclusions regarding the
deficiencies appear in the next item.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness
of
internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under
the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process
designed by, or under the supervision of our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management
and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our
internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary
to
permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are
being
made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors;
and
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have
a
material effect on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may
not
prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In
connection with the preparation of our annual financial statements, management
has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established
in
Internal
Control - Integrated Framework
issued
by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the
COSO Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of
our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational
effectiveness of those controls.
Due
to
the inherent issue of segregation of duties in a small company, we have relied
heavily on entity or management review controls to lessen the issue of
segregation of duties.
Based
on
this evaluation, management has concluded that our internal control over
financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2007. Our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded
that
we have material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting.
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management
identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31,
2007.
Independent
Board of Directors or Audit Committee
We
do not
have an independent board of directors or audit committee to oversee our
internal control over financial reporting.
Inventory
and Cost of Sales
We
do not
maintain accurate controls over perpetual inventory records which are out of
date and not adequately maintained. Accordingly, we have been unable to
effectively monitor slow moving or obsolete inventory until an actual physical
count is performed. We also are unable to determine actual inventory levels
or
cost of sales components without an actual physical count. We found that our
ability to correctly apply complex pricing calculations to finished goods and
work-in-progress is inadequate and resulted in substantial additional
adjustments. Furthermore, we discovered that lower of cost or market tests
were
not adequately applied. We have no plans to remediate this weakness as our
inventory levels are currently very low and we do not have adequate staffing.
General
Recordkeeping
Accounting
records are not adequately maintained to reflect timely recording of
transactions. Transactions are only recorded on a delayed basis without a
particular schedule except for completion of periodic filings. Bank
reconciliations are delayed, sometimes for months. Vendor bills are not recorded
on receipt and checks and deposits are only recorded in a handwritten checkbook
until a later date when they are recorded on a computerized accounting system.
We intend to remediate this weakness by creating a task schedule to be performed
periodically by our internal staff charged with the responsibility to maintain
records. We do not expect that this remediation will be implemented before
the
end of the second quarter of 2008.
Financial
Reporting
Our
controls relating to disclosure and related assertions in the financial
statements, particularly in the area of non-routine and non-systematic
transactions were not adequate. Management identified the following significant
deficiencies that when aggregated give rise to a material weakness in the area
of financial reporting. These deficiencies include a) Lack of review or evidence
of review in the financial reporting process; b) The inability to account for
complex equity transactions; c) Various manual processes and dual databases
creating need for extensive number of journal entries; and d) Inability to
apply
complex accounting principles. Management is using an outside accounting
consultant to compensate for these weaknesses but that is not a full remedy
and
the overall weakness and lack of controls pose difficulties for the consultant
in timely completing all of the accounting tasks necessary for compliance with
S.E.C. periodic filing requirements.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over
financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by
the
Company's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report on
internal control in this annual report.
Changes
in Internal Controls
There
have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during
our
most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Employment
Agreements
On
June
27, 2005, the Board of Directors resolved to enter into new employment
agreements with Devendar S. Bains and Tarlochan S. Bains to settle the liability
for unpaid salaries. In September 2006, that resolution was memorialized in
employment agreements as follows:
(i)
Devendar
S. Bains – (employment agreement dated September 1, 2006) in settlement of
the liability for accrued and unpaid salaries, the Company agreed to:
|
a.
|
issue
a three year warrant for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares common
stock
exercisable at $.20 per share (the "Warrant"), with 750,000 remaining
outstanding at December 31, 2006;
|
|
b.
|
pay
the amount of $200,000 in full settlement of the debt due him from
the
Company, payable in quarterly installments of $50,000 starting September
30, 2006 through June 30, 2007, with $150,000 remaining outstanding
at
December 31, 2006;
|
|
c.
|
cancel
250,000 warrants for each $50,000 quarterly installment paid (250,000
were
canceled concurrent with the September 2006
payment);
|
|
d.
|
provide
the right to exercise the warrants periodically in lieu of receiving
the
quarterly cash payments;
|
|
e.
|
offer
continued employment with the Company for a term of three (3) years
at a
salary of $80,000 per year; and
|
|
f.
|
revert
to a consulting agreement at a monthly amount of $5,000 for 12 months
upon
the payment in full of the $200,000 debt settlement (following the
last
$50,000 quarterly payment). As a consultant, the customary benefits
allowed under his regular employment will be
retained.
|
As
a
result of the employment agreement with Devendar S. Bains, the face amount
of
the loan balance of $345,843 immediately prior to the settlement exceeded the
minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000 by $145,843. The excess was credited
to additional paid-in capital. The current value of the warrants (based on
the
current trading prices of the underlying common stock) that secure this
liability is less than the minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000.
Accordingly, the contribution to additional paid-in capital was measured by
the
minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000.
Devendar
S. Bains beneficially owns 1,050,000 stock options (50,000 of which are owned
by
his wife) that have been extended until May 2008, and are otherwise not affected
by this settlement.
(ii)
Tarlochan
S. Bains - (employment agreement dated July 1, 2005) in settlement of the
liability for accrued and unpaid salaries, the Company agreed to (a) issue
500,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $185,000, (b) enter into
an
employment agreement at $80,000 per year, (c) issue 300,000.incentive stock
options exercisable at $.20 per share pursuant to the 2005 Plan valued at
$61,695, and (d) issue 200,000 non-qualified stock options which vest
immediately and are exercisable at $.20 per share valued at $48,760, with an
unspecified number of additional options to be issued over the next two years
at
exercise prices to be determined by the Board of Directors in accordance with
the 2005 Plan at the time of issuance. Accordingly, the Company has reflected
aggregate officer compensation charged to operations of $223,879 (the value
of
the shares and options of $274,890 less the face amount of the loan balance
of
$51,110).
Stock
Option Plans and Agreements
Option
Plan -
In May
1996, the Directors of the Company adopted and the stockholders of the Company
approved the adoption of the Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Option
Plan"). The 1996 Option Plan provided for the issuance of 2,225,000 options.
The
purpose of the 1996 Option Plan was to enable the Company to encourage key
employees and Directors to contribute to the success of the Company by granting
such employees and Directors incentive stock options ("ISOs") or non-qualified
stock options ("NQOs").
On
October 19, 2005, the Company’s stockholders and Directors amended and renewed
the 1996 Option Plan, designated the 2005 Stock Option Plan (the “2005 Option
Plan”), which provided for the issuance of up to 5,000,000 options. The 2005
Option Plan will be administered by the Board of Directors or a committee
appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Committee") which will determine,
in
its discretion, among other things, the recipients of grants, whether a grant
will consist of ISOs, NQOs or a combination thereof, and the number of shares
to
be subject to such options.
The
2005
Option Plan provides for the granting of ISOs or NQOs to purchase Common Stock
at an exercise price to be determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee
not less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the option
is granted.
The
total
number of shares with respect to which options may be granted under the Option
Plan is currently 5,000,000. Options may not be granted to an individual to
the
extent that in the calendar year in which such options first become exercisable
the shares subject to such options have a fair market value on the date of
grant
in excess of $100,000. No option may be granted under the Option Plan after
October 2015 and no option may be outstanding for more than ten years after
its
grant. Additionally, no option can be granted for more than five (5) years
to a
stockholder owning 10% or more of the Company's outstanding Common Stock and
such options must have an exercise price of not less than 110% of the fair
market value on the date of grant.
Upon
the
exercise of an option, the holder must make payment of the full exercise price.
Such payment may be made in cash or in shares of Common Stock, or in a
combination of both. The Company may lend to the holder of an option funds
sufficient to pay the exercise price, subject to certain
limitations.
The
Option Plan may be terminated or amended at any time by the Board of Directors,
except that, without stockholder approval, the Option Plan may not be amended
to
increase the number of shares subject to the Option Plan, change the class
of
persons eligible to receive options under the Option Plan or materially increase
the benefits of participants.
As
of
December 31, 2007, 2,800,000 options to purchase Common Stock under the Option
Plans. The options are exercisable at between $.15 and $0.37 and expire on
at
various dates through 2015. No determinations have been made regarding the
persons to whom options will be granted in the future, the number of shares
which will be subject to such options or the exercise prices to be fixed with
respect to any option.

Certain
Relationships and Related Transactions and Director
Independence
.
|
The
Board’s Audit Committee is responsible for review, approval, or ratification of
“related-person transactions” between the Company or its subsidiaries and
related persons. Under SEC rules, a related person is a director, officer,
nominee for director, or 5% stockholder of the Company since the beginning
of
the last fiscal year and their immediate family members. The Audit Committee
determines whether the related person has a material interest in a transaction
and may approve, ratify, rescind, or take other action with respect to the
transaction in its discretion.
In
the
year ended December 31, 2007, the following related party transactions
occurred:
Tek,
Ltd
is a company that is wholly owed by John C. Lee, the Company's Chief Executive
Officer.
In
2007,
Tek loaned the Company $794,526 and is owed a balance of $908,662 at December
31, 2007.
Director
Independence.
Only
Mikio Tajima, a non-employee director, qualifies as “independent” in accordance
with the published listing requirements of NASDAQ: Mr. Lee, Tarlochan Bains,
and
Devendar Bains do not qualify as independent because they are Wi-Tron employees.
The NASDAQ rules have both objective tests and a subjective test for determining
who is an “independent director.” The objective tests state, for example, that a
director is not considered independent if he is an employee of the Company
or is
a partner in or executive officer of an entity to which the Company made, or
from which the Company received, payments in the current or any of the past
three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue
for that year. The subjective test states that an independent director must
be a
person who lacks a relationship that, in the opinion of the Board, would
interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the
responsibilities of a director.
Mr.
Tajima is considered “independent” under the objective tests. In assessing
independence under the subjective test, the Board took into account the
standards in the objective tests, and reviewed and discussed additional
information provided by the directors and the Company with regard to each
director’s business and personal activities as they may relate to the Company
and its management. Based on all of the foregoing, as required by NASDAQ rules,
the Board made a subjective determination as to Mr. Tajima that no relationships
exists which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise
of
independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The
Board has not established categorical standards or guidelines to make these
subjective determinations, but considers all relevant facts and
circumstances.
In
addition to the board-level standards for director independence, the directors
who serve on the Audit Committee each satisfy standards established by the
SEC
providing that to qualify as “independent” for the purposes of membership on
that Committee, members of audit committees may not accept directly or
indirectly any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the Company
other than their director compensation.
Transactions
Considered in Independence Determinations.
In
making
its independence determinations, the Board considered transactions occurring
since the beginning of 2005 between the Company, its predecessors, and entities
associated with the independent directors or members of their immediate family.
All identified transactions that appear to relate to the Company and a person
or
entity with a known connection to a director are presented to the Board for
consideration. In making its subjective determination that each non-employee
director is independent, the Board considered the transactions in the context
of
the NASDAQ objective standards, the special standards established by the SEC
for
members of audit committees, and the SEC and Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
standards for compensation committee members. In each case, the Board determined
that, because of the nature of the director’s relationship with the entity
and/or the amount involved, the relationship did not impair the director’s
independence.
Indemnification.
The
Company intends to indemnify its officers and directors to the full extent
permitted by Delaware law. Under Delaware law, a corporation may indemnify
its
agents for expenses and amounts paid in third party actions and, upon court
approval in derivative actions, if the agents acted in good faith and with
reasonable care. A majority vote of the Board of Directors, approval of the
stockholder or court approval is required to effectuate
indemnification.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933,
as
amended, may be permitted to officers, directors or persons controlling the
Company, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities
and
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company
of expenses incurred or paid by an officer, director or controlling person
of
the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such officer, director or controlling person in connection with
the
securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it
is
against public policy as expressed in such Act and will be governed by the
final
adjudication of such issue.
Transactions
between the Company and its officers, directors, employees and affiliates will
be on terms no less favorable to the Company than can be obtained from
unaffiliated parties. Any such transactions will be subject to the approval
of a
majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors.

PCAOB
REGISTERED
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors
WI-TRON
Inc.
We
have
audited the accompanying balance sheet of WI-TRON Inc. as of December 31,
2007
and December 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’
equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December
31,
2006. 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 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. 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all
material respects, the financial position of WI-TRON Inc. as of December
31,
2007 and December 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations,
stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and
December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the financial
statements, the Company has incurred losses of $1,166,413 and 1,891,235
in 2007
and 2006, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue
as a
going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in
Note A. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

THE
ACCOMPANYING NOTES ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THESE
STATEMENTS
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
NOTE
A - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY
Wi-Tron,
Inc. (the Company) has historically operated in one segment, which is the
design, manufacture and selling of ultra linear single and multi channel
power
amplifiers, cellular base station components, and broadband wireless products
to
the worldwide wireless telecommunications market.
The
Company's financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities
in the normal course of business. The liquidity of the Company has been
adversely affected in recent years by significant losses from operations.
The
Company has incurred losses of $1,166,413 and $1,891,235 in 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
With
little remaining cash and reduced revenues, management believes that the
Company
will continue to have some difficulty meeting its working capital obligations
over the next 12 months. The Company is presently dependent on cash flows
generated from sales and private placements of debt or equity. If we don't
substantially improve our deteriorated revenues or if we are unable to raise
additional capital through private placements, there will be serious adverse
consequences and, accordingly, there is substantial doubt in our ability
to
remain in business over the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that
sufficient financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms,
or at
all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to
delay,
scale back or eliminate its research, engineering and development or
manufacturing programs or obtain funds through arrangements with partners
or
others that may require the Company to relinquish rights to certain of its
technologies or potential products or other assets. Accordingly, the inability
to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
In
the
past, the Company funded certain operating expenses through borrowings (in
the
form of deferring salaries and cash advances) from officers and principal
shareholders. The Company also issued its stock in lieu of cash payments
for
compensation, sales commissions and consulting fees, wherever possible.
Management's
plans for dealing with the foregoing matters include:
-
Increasing
sales of its high speed internet connectivity products through both individual
customers, strategic alliances and mergers.
-
Decreasing
the dependency on certain major customers by aggressively seeking other
customers in the amplifier markets;
-
Partnering
with significant companies to jointly develop innovative products, which
has
yielded orders with multinational companies to date, and which are expected
to
further expand such relationships;
-
Maintaining
a reduced cost structure through a more streamlined operation by using automated
machinery to produce components for our products;
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
-
Deferral
of payments of officers' salaries, as needed;
-
Reducing
overhead costs and general expenditures.
-
Merging
with another company to provide adequate working capital and jointly develop
innovative products.
RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS
In
February 2008, the Company entered into a letter of intent providing for
the
acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of Cellvine in exchange for
85% of
the outstanding common stock of Wi-tron on a fully diluted basis, leaving
the
existing owners of the Company's common stock with 15% on a fully diluted
basis.
Among other things, the agreement provides for the conversion of the Tek,
Ltd.
debt ($908,662 at December 31, 2007) into common stock at $.05 per share.
Pursuant to the merger, the Company will change its name to
Cellvine.
In
February 2008, the Company received gross proceeds of $215,000 in connection
with the private placement sale to accredited investors of 15,250,000 shares
of
restricted common stock.
NOTE
B - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A
summary
of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation
of the accompanying financial statements follows.
1.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue
is recognized upon shipment of products to customers because our shipping
terms
are F.O.B. shipping point. There are generally no rights of return, customer
acceptance protocols, installation or any other post-shipment obligations.
All
of our products are custom built to customer specifications. We provide an
industry standard one-year limited warranty under which the customer may
return
the defective product for repair or replacement. There is no maintenance
or
support revenue.
Returns
received under warranty are not material relative to sales, nor are the costs
to
repair. All sales are final, except for warranty repair/replacement and there
is
no price protection. In addition, the only company post-shipment obligation
is
for warranty repair and replacement. Finally, we do not install product or
provide services for a fee.
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
2.
INVENTORIES
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method. As virtually all of our products are made to
customer specifications, we do not keep finished goods in stock except for
completed customer orders that have not been shipped. Our work-in-progress
generally consists of customer orders that are in the process of manufacture
but
are not yet complete at the
period
end date. We review all of our components for obsolescence and excess quantities
on a periodic basis and make the necessary adjustments to net realizable
value
as deemed necessary. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, inventories consisted
of the
following:

3.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation
and amortization are provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost
of
depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, which
range
from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the
lives
of the respective leases, or the service lives of the improvements, whichever
is
shorter. The straight-line method of depreciation is followed for substantially
all assets for financial reporting purposes, but accelerated methods are
used
for tax purposes.
4.
VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The
Company reviews long-lived assets held and used for possible impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset
may not be recoverable. The Company has not recorded any provision for the
impairment of long-lived assets at December 31, 2007.
5.
INCOME
TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement
requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach for financial
accounting and reporting of deferred income taxes. In addition, the deferred
tax
liabilities and assets are required to be adjusted for the effect of any
future
changes in the tax law or rates. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary
differences resulting in the basis of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided if the
Company is uncertain as to the realization of deferred tax assets.
6.
RISKS,
UNCERTAINTIES AND CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY
The
Company's future results of operations involve a number of significant risks
and
uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company's future operating results
and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include, but
are
not limited to, dependence on key personnel, dependence on a limited number
of
customers, ability to design new products and product obsolescence, ability
to
generate consistent sales, ability to finance research and development,
government regulation, technological innovations and acceptance, competition,
reliance on certain vendors, credit and other risks.
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
Additionally,
the Company assumes certain insurance risks by self-insuring and its statutorily
required workers compensation coverage lapsed due to non-payment of the
premiums. The Company has no reserves to cover self insurance
losses.
Financial
instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit
risk, consist principally of cash and accounts receivable.
The
Company maintains cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and money market
accounts in one bank, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits
or
not be insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts
and
does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and
cash
equivalents.
During
2007, 3 customers accounted for substantially all net sales and substantially
all accounts receivable at December 31, 2007. Export sales in 2007 accounted
for
substantially all net sales including 46% to Israel and 34% to
Europe.
During
2006, 4 customers accounted for approximately 96% of net sales and 3 customers
accounted for 100% of net accounts receivable at December 31, 2006. Export
sales
in 2006 accounted for approximately 88% of net sales including 60% to
Europe.
In
addition, the Company is dependent on a limited number of suppliers for key
components used in the Company's products (primarily power transistors) and
subcontracted manufacturing processes. Management believes that other suppliers
could provide similar components and processes on comparable terms. A change
in
suppliers, however, could disrupt manufacturing.
The
carrying values of financial instruments potentially subject to valuation
risk,
consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and officer's
loan
receivable, approximate fair value, principally because of the short maturity
of
these items.
7.
USE OF
ESTIMATES
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required
to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date
of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
WI-TRON,
INC.

8.
STOCK-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
On
January 1, 2006 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS
123(R) requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value
of
employee stock option awards and to measure the cost of employee services
received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant
date
fair
value
of
the award. This eliminated the exception to account for such awards using
the
intrinsic method previously allowable under Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, “Accounting for Stock issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Prior to January
1, 2006, we accounted for the stock based compensation plans under the
recognition and measurement provisions of APB 25, as permitted by SFAS No.
123,
“Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”
Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions
of
SFAS 123(R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that
transition method, compensation cost recognized in 2006 and beyond includes:
(a)
compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not
yet
vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated
in
accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation
cost for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006,
based
on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions
of SFAS
123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated and there is no
cumulative effect upon adoption of SFAS 123(R).
Prior
to
adoption of SFAS 123(R) the Company used intrinsic-value method of accounting
for stock based-awards granted to employees. No stock-based compensation
cost is
included in the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 as no options
were
granted to employees during that period. All stock-based compensation during
the
year ended December 31, 2006 was paid in the form of restricted common
stock.
9.
CASH
AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
10.
ADVERTISING EXPENSES
The
Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses were
$1,162
and $5,951 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
11.
LOSS
PER SHARE
The
Company complies with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings
per
Share" ("SFAS No. 128"). SFAS No. 128 specifies the compilation, presentation
and disclosure requirements for earnings per share for entities with publicly
held common stock or potential common stock. Net loss per common share -
basic
and diluted is determined by dividing the net loss by the weighted average
number of common stock outstanding. Net loss per common share - diluted does
not
include potential common shares derived from stock options and warrants (see
Note C) because they are antidilutive.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
The
Company has not pursued its wireless Internet connectivity business since
2003
and is currently operating in one segment.
13.
FAIR
VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash
and
cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses
reported in the consolidated balance sheets equal or approximate fair value
due
to their short maturities.
14.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business
Combinations." SFAS 141(R) broadens the guidance of SFAS 141, extending its
applicability to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains
control over one or more other businesses. It broadens the fair value
measurement and recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and
interests transferred as a result of business combinations. SFAS 141(R) expands
on required disclosures to improve the statement users' abilities to evaluate
the nature and financial effects of business combinations. SFAS 141(R) is
effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009. The adoption of
SFAS
141(R) is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51." SFAS 160 requires
that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary be reported as equity and
the
amount of consolidated net income specifically attributable to the
noncontrolling interest be identified in the consolidated financial statements.
It also calls for consistency in the manner of reporting changes in the parent's
ownership interest and requires fair value measurement of any noncontrolling
equity investment retained in a deconsolidation. SFAS 160 is effective for
our
fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009. We have not yet determined the impact
of
adopting SFAS 160 on the Company's financial position, results of operations
or
cash flows.
In
February, 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities including an amendment of FAS 115, or FAS
159.
This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial
assets and liabilities at fair value. This statement is effective for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. We
believe that adoption of FAS No. 159 will not have a material affect on our
results of operations or financial position.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 Employers' Accounting for Defined
Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an Amendment of FASB Statements
No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). This statement requires a company to recognize
the
funded status of a benefit plan as an asset or a liability in its statement
of
financial position. In addition, a company is required to measure plan assets
and benefit obligations as of the date of its fiscal year-end statement of
financial position. The recognition provision of this statement, along with
additional disclosure requirements, is effective for fiscal years ending
after
December 15, 2006, while the measurement date provision is effective for
fiscal
years ending after December 15, 2008. Management does not believe that adoption
of this statement will have a material
impact
on
the financial position of the Company.
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" which
defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands
disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS 157 and eliminates
inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements.
SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
However, on February 12, 2008, the FASB issued proposed FASB Staff Position
("FSP") SFAS No. 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157," which
defers
the effective date for adoption of fair value measurements for nonfinancial
assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.
The
Company will adopt SFAS 157 during 2008, except as it applies to those
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as noted in proposed FSP
157-2. The partial adoption of SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
June,
2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for
Income
Taxes (FIN48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty
in
tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing
a
minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on
derecognition, measurement, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting
in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48
as of
January 1, 2007. Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are
no
significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial
statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years which remain subject
to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2007. We may
from
time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions,
although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial
to
our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest
and/or penalties, it has been classified in the financial statements as selling,
general and administrative expense. The Company is currently subject to a
three
year statue of limitations by major tax jurisdictions. The Company files
income
tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and New Jersey.

Stock
Purchase and Financing Agreements
In
2004
John Chase Lee of Piscataway, NJ ("Lee") entered into a Note Purchase Agreement
with the Company by which Lee agreed to lend the Company an initial $200,000
and
up to an additional $200,000 in one or more installments on or before October
30, 2004. The Company agreed to deliver to Lee convertible promissory notes
which are convertible into Series C shares representing approximately 80%
of the
Company's outstanding stock on a fully diluted basis. Such conversion will
take
place at such time as the Company is able to do so. Messrs. Devendar Bains
and
Tarlochan Bains are required to devote their full business time and attention
to
the business of the Company for eight (8) years from May 25, 2004. In the
event
that either Devendar Bains or Tarlochan Bains must leave the employ of the
Company for any reason, each agrees that, if requested by the Board of Directors
of the Company, he will use his best efforts to find a qualified replacement
for
himself acceptable to the Board of Directors, and that he will not engage
in a
business competitive with the Company for a period of eight (8) years. On
May
25, 2004, Lee loaned the Company $250,000, and was issued three convertible
promissory notes which will be convertible in the aggregate into Series C
shares
representing approximately 40% of the Company's outstanding stock on a fully
diluted basis, if and when converted. If not converted, the notes were payable
on demand, provided that demand could not have been made before December
31,
2004, unless the Company was in default of the Note Purchase
Agreement.
On
June
27, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with Lee whereby 130,000
Series
C Preferred shares (convertible into 13,000,000 common shares) would be issued
in full satisfaction of $650,000 of loans made by him to the Company. The
conversion of the loans into convertible preferred stock took place on August
11, 2005.
3.
Private
Placements of Common Stock and Debt
On
March
10, 2006, the Company issued 5,550,000 shares of common stock through a private
offering to accredited investors at $.06 per share (gross proceeds of $333,000)
pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule
506
promulgated thereunder. The Company's officers and directors directed the

Amendment
to Certificate of Designation of Preferred Shares

Preferred
and Common Stock Restricted under Rule 144
All

governed by SEC Rule 144 and cannot be sold unless they are registered pursuant
to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or if such sale is pursuant to
a
valid exemption from registration.
NOTE
D - STOCK OPTION PLANS
An
option
and stock appreciation rights (SARs) plan was authorized prior to the public
offering whereby options could be granted to purchase no more than 1,500,000
shares of common stock at exercise prices no less than fair market value
as of
date of grant. At the 2001 Annual Shareholders' Meeting, the maximum number
of
shares set aside for this plan was increased to 2,225,000. By majority
consent
of the shareholders in August 2005, the maximum number of shares set aside
for
this plan was increased to 5,000,000 and the plan was extended for an additional
10 year period. Under the plan, employees and directors may be granted
options
to purchase shares of common stock at the fair market value at the time
of
grant. Options generally vest in three years and expire in four years from
the
date of grant. 2,800,000 options remained outstanding at December 31,
2007.
The
Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No.
25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations in
accounting for its stock options. Under APB No. 25, if the exercise price
of the
Company's employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying
stock
on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires presentation of pro forma
net
loss and loss per share as if the Company had accounted for its employee
stock
options granted under the fair value method of that statement. For purposes
of
pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized
to
expense over the vesting period.
Prior
to
adoption of SFAS 123(R) the Company used intrinsic-value method of accounting
for stock based-awards granted to employees. No stock-based compensation
cost is
included in the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2005 as no options
were
granted to employees during that period. All stock-based compensation during
the
year ended December 31, 2007 was paid in the form of restricted common
stock.

NOTE
E - INCOME TAXES
Temporary
differences and carryforwards give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The principal components of the deferred tax assets relate to net operating
loss
carryforwards. At December 31, 2007, the Federal net operating loss
carryforwards are approximately $19,000,000. The net operating loss
carryforwards expire at various dates through 2027, and because of the
uncertainty in the Company's ability to utilize the net operating loss
carryforwards, a full valuation allowance of approximately $6,500,000 and
$6,200,000 has been provided on the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2007
and
2006, respectively.
WI-TRON,
INC.
Notes
to Financial Statements
December
31, 2007 and 2006
The
Company participated in the New Jersey Technology Tax Certificate Transfer
Program, whereby net operating loss carryforwards generated in New Jersey
can be
sold to other qualified companies. During 2007 and 2006, the Company received
$102,393 and $NIL, respectively, from the sale of such net operating losses.
As
a result of these transactions, the New Jersey net operating loss carryforwards
are limited to the current year loss of approximately $1,100,000 at December
31,
2007.
Internal
Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the utilization of Federal
net
operating loss and other credit carryforwards when an ownership change, as
defined by the tax law, occurs. Generally, this occurs when a greater than
50
percentage point change in ownership occurs. Accordingly, the actual utilization
of the net operating loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets for
tax
purposes may be limited annually under Code Section 382 to a percentage (about
5%) of the fair market value of the Company at the time of any such ownership
change.
The
Company's tax provision for 2007 and 2006 is principally due to the impact
of
state income and minimum taxes.

FEDERAL TAX LIENS
On
January 18, 2005, the Internal Revenue Service filed a federal tax lien with
the
County Clerk of Somerset County, New Jersey, in the amount of $35,663. Since
that date, the Company continued to be delinquent on additional tax periods
and
paid off some back periods. Consequently, more liens were filed by the
government while several were released. These liens attach to all property
currently owned by the Company as well as all property it may acquire in
the
future, until the liens are satisfied. The Company paid all related liabilities
connected with these liens during the year ended December 31, 2007.

G - OFFICER LOANS
1.
Officer
Loans and Employment Agreements
As
of
December 31, 2007, the Company owes $150,000 to Devendar S. Bains, a former
Chief Executive Officer for loans. This balance due is non-interest bearing
and
is secured by warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock at $.20
per
share, exercisable through September 2009 . The balance of $150,000 (after
payment of $50,000 made in September 2006) is payable in three quarterly
installments of $50,000 through September 2007. Each installment payment
requires the surrender and cancellation of 250,000 warrants. 250,000 warrants
were surrendered and cancelled in September 2006 concurrent with a $50,000
payment. None of the required quarterly payments were made in 2007. No action
has been taken by Mr. Bains against the Company to collect this
balance.
On
June
27, 2005, the Board of Directors resolved to enter into new employment
agreements with Devendar S. Bains and Tarlochan S. Bains to settle the liability
for unpaid salaries. In September 2006, that resolution was memorialized
in
employment agreements as follows:
(i)
Devendar
S. Bains – (employment agreement dated September 1, 2006) in settlement of the
liability for accrued and unpaid salaries, the Company agreed to:
|
a.
|
issue
a three year warrant for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares common
stock
exercisable at $.20 per share (the "Warrant"), with 750,000 remaining
outstanding at December 31, 2007;

|
b.
|
pay
the amount of $200,000 in full settlement of the debt due him from
the
Company, payable in quarterly installments of $50,000 starting
September
30, 2006 through June 30, 2007, with $150,000 remaining outstanding
at
December 31, 2007;
|
|
c.
|
cancel
250,000 warrants for each $50,000 quarterly installment paid (250,000
were
canceled concurrent with the September 2006
payment);
|
|
d.
|
provide
the right to exercise the warrants periodically in lieu of receiving
the
quarterly cash payments;
|
|
e.
|
offer
continued employment with the Company for a term of three (3) years
at a
salary of $80,000 per year; and
|
|
f.
|
revert
to a consulting agreement at a monthly amount of $5,000 for 12
months upon
the payment in full of the $200,000 debt settlement (following
the last
$50,000 quarterly payment). As a consultant, the customary benefits
allowed under his regular employment will be
retained.
|
As
a
result of the employment agreement with Devendar S. Bains, the face amount
of
the loan balance of $345,843 immediately prior to the settlement exceeded
the
minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000 by $145,843. The excess was credited
to additional paid-in capital. The current value of the warrants (based on
the
current trading prices of the underlying common stock) that secure this
liability is less than the minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000.
Accordingly, the contribution to additional paid-in capital was measured
by the
minimum cash settlement amount of $200,000.
Devendar
S. Bains beneficially owns 1,050,000 stock options (50,000 of which are owned
by
his wife) that have been extended until May 2008, and are otherwise not affected
by this settlement.
(ii)
Tarlochan
S. Bains - (employment agreement dated July 1, 2005) in settlement of the
liability for accrued and unpaid salaries, the Company agreed to (a) issue
500,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $185,000, (b) enter into
an
employment agreement at $80,000 per year, (c) issue 300,000 incentive stock
options exercisable at $.20 per share pursuant to the 2005 Plan valued at
$61,695, and (d) issue 200,000 non-qualified stock options which vest
immediately and are exercisable at $.20 per share valued at $48,760, with
an
unspecified number of additional options to be issued over the next two years
at
exercise prices to be determined by the Board of Directors in accordance
with
the 2005 Plan at the time of issuance. Accordingly, the Company has reflected
aggregate officer compensation charged to operations of $223,879 (the value
of
the shares and options of $274,890 less the face amount of the loan balance
of
$51,110).

and
proceedings that may be considered as part of the ordinary course of its
business. Except for the proceedings noted below, the Company is not aware
of
any pending litigation or proceedings that could have a material effect on
the
Company's results of operations or financial condition.

A
customer filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial
District of the State of Florida on January 23, 1997 alleging breach of
contract. During 2000, the Company settled with that customer at a cost of
$175,000; $25,000 is to be paid quarterly over two years. $95,000 remained
unpaid at December 31, 2007.
2.
In
April
2004, a law firm filed a judgment against the Company in the amount of
approximately $40,000 in connection with non-payment of legal fees owed to
it.
Inasmuch as this is a perfection of an already recorded liability, management
does not believe that the judgment will have a material impact on the financial
position of the Company. In March 2005, a settlement was reached whereby
the
Company made a down payment of $2,500 and agreed to pay the balance in 24
equal
monthly installments of approximately $1,600. The last payment made was in
November 2006 and the Company is in default of the settlement agreement.
There
is a remaining balance of $7,917 as of December 31, 2007.
