VISUAL BIBLE INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2004
1. THE COMPANY
Visual Bible International, Inc. ("Visual Bible International",
"VBII" or "the Company") is a global faith-based media company which
has secured the exclusive visual and digital rights to popular
versions of the Bible. The Company has produced and successfully
released the word-for-word books of Matthew and Acts and a
production of a word-for-word film adaptation of The Gospel of John
was released during September 2003.
Visual Bible's mission is to use all forms of media to inspire the
lives of present and future generations by carrying God's Word
regardless of their religious affiliation, culture or geographic
location. The Company intends to acquire additional intellectual
property rights, producing new products and intends to build its
sales and distribution networks to position itself as the
pre-eminent creator and distributor of the word-for-word productions
of the Bible.
As reported in the audit report on the financial statements of the
Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, dated May 22,
2004 and included within the Company's Form 10-KSB filing for 2003
the financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern for which there exist
substantial doubt.
As discussed within the Form 10-KSB and the incorporated financial
statements the Company during the first quarter of 2004 entered into
a number of agreements and concluding on April 1, 2004 collectively
the "Forbearance Documents" with its significant debt holders,
creditors and vendors many of whom are also major stockholders and
included a member of the Company's Board of Directors at that time.
Since May of 2004 the Company has been operating under these
agreements that basically provide for an agent, the "Disbursement
Agent" to distribute the film revenues in a prescribed manner. At
June 30, 2004 this cash has been reported as Escrowed Cash.
The terms of the agreements provide that the Company will share in
portion of certain revenues received which may or may not be
sufficient to cover the Company's current operating and
administrative expenses or costs to market the film.
Should the Company be unable to attract new capital, restructure
their existing agreements or to reach a major distribution agreement
or agreements there remains substantial doubt about the Company's
continued existence.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements consolidate the accounts of
Visual Bible International and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts from prior years have
been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission and, therefore, do not include all
information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited
financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all
adjustments that are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to
present fairly the results of operations, financial position and
cash flows have been made. It is suggested that these statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, dated May 22, 2004 for the
year ended December 31, 2003.
The statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004
and 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
The Company computes earnings or loss per share in accordance with
the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 128 "Earnings
Per Share" (SFAS 128) which replaced the calculation of primary and
fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per
share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share
excludes the dilutive effects of options, warrants and convertible
securities and thus is computed by dividing income available to
common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is similar to the previous
fully diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per share
reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other agreements to issue common stock were exercised or converted
into common stock. Diluted earnings per share is computed based
upon the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive
common equivalent shares outstanding.
3. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT)
During February and March, 2004, the Company issued 621,049 shares
of the Company's common stock valued at $0.25 to certain parties in
connection with post production financing and loan guarantees.
During the second quarter ended June 30, 2004 the Company issued
15,033,645 shares to its debenture holders in connection with the
refinance of the debenture's debt valued at $0.25 per share.
In addition the Company has issued 1,471,107 shares in settlement of
certain accounts payables and debts also amounting to $1,471,107.
In addition the Company issued 800,000 shares to the American Bible
Society in settlement of royalties owed to them amounting to $122,534.
Also during May and June, 2004 the Company concluded a private
placement of 800,000 shares at $0.50 per share and received $400,000.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes to the financial statements included
elsewhere in this report. The discussion may contain "forward
looking" statements or statements which arguably imply or suggest
certain things about our future. Statements, which express that we
"believe", "anticipate", "expect", or "plan to", as well as, other
statements which are not historical fact, are forward looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on assumptions that
we believe are reasonable, but a number of factors could cause our
actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied
by these statements. We do not intend to update these forward
looking statements.
Overview
We are a global, faith-based media company that has secured the
exclusive visual and digital rights to popular versions of the
Bible. We have produced and released in the fall of 2003 the
word-for-word film adaptation of The Gospel of John. Our primary
strengths are our intellectual property rights to the visual
representation of popular versions of the Bible, our creative
constituents and our sales and distribution networks. The Bible
remains the largest selling book of all-time and Bible sales are
driven by Bible translations. From the American Bible Society we
have secured the exclusive worldwide rights to develop, produce and
market film adaptations on a word-for-word basis in the English
language from the American Bible Society's Good News Translation
Bible and Contemporary English Version, including both Books of the
Old and New Testaments. We also could have access, as negotiated,
to non-English translations of the Bible from the United Bible
Societies and their affiliates. The Good News Translation Bible
represents a significant portion of US Bible sales and has sold
approximately 140 million Bibles worldwide. The Latin American
Spanish translation of The Gospel of John has been licensed to us.
The US Latino population is in excess of 35 million.
Although, based upon our exclusive license we believe that others
are unable to recreate our video products exactly in the versions we
utilize, we recognize that others presently do and may in the future
create products and services that are directly competitive with our
products. There are a myriad of products and services offered by
numerous individuals, for profit companies and non profit companies
and organizations targeted toward our customers and potential
customers. However, due to our exclusive license agreement, we
believe that for so long as this agreement remains in effect any
potential customer specifically seeking video recreations of the
versions of the Bible produced by us under our license agreement
would be required to purchase our product.
We intend to utilize our intellectual property rights as the basis
to build a global distribution system for faith-based, audio visual
products. Past distribution of such products has been primarily
focused on the traditional Christian marketplace. We believe the
opportunity continues to exist to take our products into the
mainstream domestic marketplace and simultaneously into the much
larger global marketplace where, we believe, the potential for sales
is very significant.
Results of Operation
Sales for the three month period ended June 30, 2004 totalled
$2,497,114 compared to $10,125 reported in the corresponding 2003
period. The increase in sales was attributable to the retail, rental
and direct response marketing initiatives associated with the
word-for-word film adaptation of The Gospel of John. The production
was not completed in the 2003 period.
Costs of goods sold increased in the three months ended June 30,
2004 to $995,572 from $4,000 in the 2003 corresponding period. The
increase was due to the marketing of The Gospel of John.
General and administrative expenses of $1,740,265 for the three
month period ended June 30, 2004 increased 0.8% over the $1,726,947
amount incurred in the corresponding 2003 three month period. The
current quarter expenses include $1,259,699 consisting of
professional fees of approximately $830,090 plus foreign currency
accumulated and current translation in the amount of $429,609. The
expenses in the current period were primarily in support of the
Company's new production, The Gospel of John. Professional fees
were incurred in the amount of approximately $1,240,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2003.
Interest and finance costs for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 were
in the amount of $4,818,009 and were mainly associated with the
Company's debenture issues. This includes $3,758,411 relating to the
issuance of 15,033,645 shares to the Company's debentureholders
valued at $0.25 per share. The Company had outstanding $6,533,645
of Series "A" debentures during the second quarter 2004 and
comparable 2003 period. The Company issued $8,500,000 of Series "B"
debentures at the end of August, 2003. Accordingly, during the
quarter ended June 30, 2003 there were no interest charges relating
to the Series "B" debentures.
Sales for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 were $6,808,515
an increase of $6,758,983 from $49,532 in the same 2003 period. The
increase in sales was attributable to the retail, rental and direct
response marketing initiatives associated with the film adaptation
of The Gospel of John. The production was not completed in the 2003
period.
Costs of goods sold increased in the six months ended June 30, 2004
to $2,943,875 from $19,087 in the 2003 corresponding period. The
increase was due to the marketing of The Gospel of John.
General and administrative expenses of $2,624,154 for the six months
ended June 30, 2004 increased 2.3 % over the $2,565,007 incurred in
the corresponding 2003 six month period. The current six month
period included $1,621,699 consisting of professional fees of
approximately $1,192,090 plus foreign currency accumulated and
current translation in the amount of $429,609. In the 2003 six
month period professional fees were approximately $1,590,000.
During the 2003 six month period, expenses related to the film
production and start of marketing for The Gospel of John.
For the six months ended June 30, 2004, interest and finance costs
were $5,852,676 compared to $589,545 for the 2003 six month period.
The current six month period included $3,758,411 relating to the
issuance of 15,033,645 shares to the Company's debentureholders
valued at $0.25 per share. The Company had outstanding $6,533,645
of Series "A" debentures during the 2004 and comparable 2003 six
month period. The Company issued $8,500,000 of Series "B"
debentures at the end of August, 2003. Accordingly, during the six
months ended June 30, 2003, there were no interest charges relating
to the Series "B" debentures.
Liquidity & Capital Resources
At June 30, 2004, we had approximately $337,000 in cash and cash
equivalents, exclusive of a cash escrow amount of $1,272,000 and a
working capital deficit of $14,588,000. The primary source of
liquidity to meet our obligations during the three months ended June
30, 2004 was provided from the sales for DVD/video units of The
Gospel of John.
For fiscal year 2004, we anticipate cash needs of approximately
$6,250,000, consisting of approximately $750,000 for marketing of
The Gospel of John, approximately $2,000,000 relating to operations,
approximately $3,500,000 earmarked for reduction of liabilities,
exclusive of payments of interest and principal relating to the
debentures, which was subject to a Forbearance Agreement until July
31, 2004. We expect these cash needs to be funded by our collection
of accounts receivable principally arising from sales of DVD/video
units of The Gospel of John, additional sales of DVD/video units and
other sources of capital. Without the collection of such accounts
receivables, additional sales and other sources of capital, our
revenue from operations will not be sufficient to sustain our
current working capital obligations and requirements.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
a.) Our principal executive officer and our principal financial
officer have on a date which is within ninety days of the date that
we have filed this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"),
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures and have concluded that no significant deficiencies or

the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, the Defendant, on August 9,
2004, filed defenses and counterclaims, certain of which
counterclaims (the "Applicable Counterclaims") were instituted
against us, Maurice Colson, Myron Gottlieb and Garth Drabinsky.
The central allegations made by the Defendant against us as
part of the Applicable Counterclaims are that we wrongfully
dismissed Defendant and terminated his employment contract of

As previously reported in our Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2004 and in our Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended
March 31, 2004, Harold Kramer was acting as our executive vice
president, secretary and chief financial officer from June 13, 2002
until May 22, 2004, when Mr. Kramer was removed as our Chief
Financial Officer, due in part, to a certain letter from Mr. Kramer
to us dated May 20, 2004 (the "Kramer Letter")which Kramer Letter
was filed by us as an Exhibit to our Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2003. We strongly disagreed with each and every
of the allegations contained as part of the Kramer Letter and after
evaluating our relationship with Mr. Kramer and the terms of our
employment agreement with him, we elected to terminate the
employment agreement for cause
