|
Sales to domestic customers are made direct to the end customer (typically a law enforcement agency or a commercial customer) through our direct sales force, who are our employees. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the end customer.
|
|
●
|
Sales to international customers are made through independent distributors who purchase products from the Company
at a wholesale price and sell to the end user (typically law enforcement agencies or a commercial customer) at a retail price. The distributor retains the margin as its compensation for its role in the transaction. The distributor generally maintains product inventory, customer receivables and all related risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the distributor consistent with the terms of the distribution agreement.
|
|
●
|
Repair parts and services for domestic and international customers are generally handled by our inside customer service employees. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the repair parts and acceptance of the service or materials by the end customer.
|
|
●
|
Expected term is determined using the contractual term and vesting period of the award;
|
|
●
|
Expected volatility of award grants made in the Company’s plan is measured using the weighted average of historical daily changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock over the period equal to the expected term of the award;
|
|
●
|
Expected dividend rate is determined based on expected dividends to be declared;
|
|
●
|
Risk-free interest rate is equivalent to the implied yield on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bonds with a maturity equal to the expected term of the awards; and
|
|
●
|
Forfeitures are based on the history of cancellations of awards granted and management’s analysis of potential forfeitures.

Revenues increased in first quarter 2013 to $4,780,549 from $4,638,087 in fourth quarter 2012 and were the highest achieved since third quarter 2011, when revenues aggregated $5,817,893. We attribute the revenue increases during recent quarters to the reorganization of our law enforcement sales force, which began in late 2011 and continued through the first and second quarters of 2012. We have moved to an employee-based sales force, as opposed to our historical usage of independent sales agents for domestic markets.
|
|
●
|
We have recently launched additional products to complement our DVM-500 and DVM-750 in-car video products in an effort to diversify our sources of revenue. In that respect, we launched the DVM-250 event recorder during first quarter 2011, the DVM-100 in-car video system in third quarter 2011 and the DVM-400 in-car video system in fourth quarter 2011, and plan to launch the new FirstVU HD and UltraVU during second quarter 2013. We are hopeful that our expanded product line will help generate incremental revenues to supplement our traditional DVM-500Plus and DVM-750 revenues. In addition, the DVM-250 and DVM-250Plus event recorders are designed for commercial fleet operators, which allow us to seek new customers outside of law enforcement. In that regard, we shipped a $340,000 order of the DVM-250 product during first quarter 2013 to a c
om
mercial fleet operator. Our recently released products, including the DVM-100, the DVM-400, the DVM-250, and the DVM-250Plus, contributed 19% of the total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to 6% for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
|
|
●
|
Our gross profit on sales increased to 60.6% during first quarter 2013 from 51.6% in fourth quarter 2012, and 56.9% in third quarter 2012, 53.8% in second quarter 2012 and 52.8% in first quarter 2012. We attribute the improvement in gross margins during first quarter 2013 to our supply chain improvement plan as we continued producing and shipping both DVM-500Plus and DVM-750 units containing the lower cost components, and our ability to transition sales volume to our recently added products, which have higher margins than our DVM-500 and DVM-750 in car video products. Since 2011 we have implemented our supply chain plan to improve gross margin through better outsourcing of our component parts in the future, including from foreign sources, which allowed us to reduce our production overhead costs through headcount and other cost reductions. Our goal is to continue to improve margins during 2013 through our supply chain initiative, reduce manufacturing overhead, increase sales volume and improve product mix. We continue to focus on reducing the costs of our products through changes to our supply chain, where we are emphasizing outsourcing of component part production and changing our supply chain vendors to lower cost alternative suppliers throughout the world. However, we are experiencing increased price competition and pressure from certain of our competitors that has led to pricing discounts on larger contract opportunities. We believe this pricing pressure will continue as our competitors attempt to regain market share and revive sales and we expect it to have a negative impact on our gross margins to some degree during 2013.
|
|
●
|
We believe that current and potential customers may be delaying or reducing the size of orders due to a number of factors, including budget reductions, in order to preserve their currently available funding and budgets. Many of the existing Federal funding programs require matching funds from the local agencies that continue to be difficult given the budget restrictions. We cannot predict whether such funding on a matching basis will have a positive impact on our revenues in the future.

●
|
Our international revenues decreased to $80,814 (2% of total revenues) during first quarter 2013, compared to $158,415 (4% of total revenues) during first quarter
2012. We believe our first quarter 2013 revenues were disappointing and below our expectations given the high level of bidding activity. We are hopeful the decline in first quarter 2013 international revenues is temporary and the result of timing issues that will reverse during the remainder of 2013, although we can offer no assurances in this regard. We have provided a number of bids to international customers; however, international sale cycles generally take longer than domestic business. We also believe that our new products may appeal to international customers, in particular the DVM-100, DVM-250 and DVM-250Plus, although we can make no assurances in this regard. We have built in the capability t
o install a variety of language packs into our DVM-750 system, which currently includes English, Spanish, Turkish and Arabic, with additional languages to become available during 2013. This language flexibility may be a positive factor in our efforts to improve future international sales.
|
|
●
|
We have reorganized our production and manufacturing operations by placing a greater emphasis on contract manufacturers. Uncertainties regarding the size and timing of large international orders make it difficult for us to maintain efficient production and staffing levels if all orders are processed through our manufacturing facility. By outsourcing more of our production requirements to contract manufacturers, we believe that we can benefit from greater volume purchasing and production efficiencies, while at the same time reducing our fixed and semi-fixed overhead costs. It is, of course, important that selected contract manufacturers be able to ramp up production quickly in order to meet the varying demands of our international customers.
|
|
●
|
Our recent operating losses caused deterioration in our cash and liquidity in fiscal 2012 and 2011. We borrowed $2,500,000 under two unsecured subordinated notes (the "Notes") payable to a private, third party lender. The Notes are due and payable in full on May 30, 2014 and may be prepaid without penalty at any time. At March 31, 2013, we had available cash balances of $394,745 and approximately $9.0 million of working capital, primarily in the form of inventory and accounts receivable. We had no institutional credit lines available to provide additional working capital as of such date.

Sales to domestic customers are made direct to the end customer (typically a law enforcement agency or a commercial customer) through or our direct sales force, who are our employees. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the end customer.
|
|
●
|
Sales to international customers are made through independent distributors who purchase products from the Company
at a wholesale price and sell to the end user (typically law enforcement agencies or a commercial customer) at a retail price. The distributor retains the margin as its compensation for its role in the transaction. The distributor generally maintains product inventory, customer receivables and all related risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the distributor consistent with the terms of the distribution agreement.

Our revenues increased significantly for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the
three months ended March 31, 2012 (26%) and we attribute the increased revenues to the reorganization of the law enforcement sales force which was begun in late 2011.
We reorganized our domestic sales force and organization for our law enforcement channel in 2012. We changed from third party sales agents to an employee-based direct sales force. This provides us with more control and monitoring of our sales force and its daily activities. In addition, we reduced the size of certain sales territories and consequently increased the overall number of domestic sales territories and sales personnel, from 15 in 2012 to 22 currently, in order to better penetrate the market. During 2012, we converted one third party sales agent to be an employee-based direct sales person and replaced the remaining third party sales agents with new employee-based sales personnel. Our objective with this new employee-based model, including the replacement of many sales agents, was to encourage our sales personnel in lower performing territories to improve their efforts and consequently their sales results. We believe that the transition to the employee-based direct sales force model resulting in a number of new territories and sales personnel during 2012 and the training of new sales personnel that replaced underperforming salesmen in certain existing territories caused temporary disruptions and contributed to the lower revenues in 2012. In conjunction with the sales force reorganization, we identified, hired and trained 14 new sales personnel that principally replaced underperforming sales agents. We hope that this transition will result in improved revenues from these historically underperforming territories in the future.

Our average order size increased from approximately $2,300 in first quarter 2012 to $2,600 during first quarter 2013. We shipped two individual orders in excess of $100,000, for a total of $912,000 in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to four orders individually in excess of $100,000, for total revenue of $566,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
We
maintained c
onsistent retail pricing on our law enforcement mirror models during 2013 and do not plan any material changes in pricing during 2013, including the new products recently introduced. Our newer mirror-based products include the DVM-100, DVM-250, DVM-250Plus and the DVM-400, which are sold at lower retail pricing levels compared to our legacy products due to fewer features relative to our legacy DVM-500Plus and DVM-750 models. We are experiencing some price competition and discounting from our comp
etitors as they attempt to regain market share. For certain opportunities that involve multiple units and/or multi-year contracts, we have occasionally discounted our products to gain or retain market share and revenues.

|
Our revenues from commercial fleet customers increased to 9% of our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to 2% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Additionally, during first quarter 2013 we shipped a $340,000 order to a commercial fleet operator. This demonstrates the progress we have made with the commercial fleet market and we are optimistic about continued revenue increases in the future.
