NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

  1. Throughout this report, the terms "we", "us", "ours", "ISC" and "company" refer to Intelligent Systems Corporation, including its subsidiaries.
  2. The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of ISC management, these consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which comprise only normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 1999 and 1998. The interim results for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with our combined financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, as filed in our annual report on Form 10-K.
  3. Sale of InterQuad Services – Effective February 1, 1999, we sold our ownership in the InterQuad Services (Services) subsidiary. Services provides technical and software training in England. We sold our interest in return for a 19 percent interest in a privately held U.K. company whose principal asset is a 49 percent ownership in InterQuad Group. InterQuad Group is a privately held U.K. based company that provides computer hardware, software, training and consulting services to businesses. Effective as of the date of the sale, we no longer consolidate the results of Services and record our minority investment in accordance with the accounting policies outlined in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Report on Form 10-K. Our cost basis is zero.
  4. Sale of Information Advantage Stock – In January 1999, we sold our remaining 95,449 shares of common stock of Information Advantage (formerly IQ Software). In the first quarter, our results include a gain of $814,000 on the sale. Cash proceeds of the sale were $902,000.
  5. Accounting Changes – In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". The Statement requires companies to report comprehensive income and its components in their financial statements. Comprehensive income is the total of net income and all other non-owner changes in equity in a period. We adopted the disclosure requirements of this statement in March 1998.

Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss)

(unaudited, in thousands)

Three Materially at risk of Year 2000 related disruption but are prepared to develop contingency plans when and if we identify them as being at risk.

Financial Condition

In the first nine months of 1999, we derived $902,000 cash from selling our remaining shares of common stock of Information Advantage and $416,000 cash from sales of part of our holdings in two privately held software companies. We also borrowed $947,000 under a domestic line of credit. We used approximately $131,000 to fund corporate overhead expenses, $1,010,000 to pay down short-term notes payable to third parties, $533,000 for new investments and/or follow-on funding for prior investments, and $510,000 for a non-hedge contract on marketable securities which was closed out in early October 1999.
