Form 10-Q for CONSULIER ENGINEERING INC


18-May-2009

Quarterly Report


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Gross revenue, which is predominantly software licensing fees, increased approximately 28% in the quarter ended March 31, 2009, compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2008, due to the completion of implementation projects at certain hospitals.
The operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009, was approximately $811,000 compared to an operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008, of $1,456,000. This reduction in operating loss of approximately $645,000 was largely due to an increase in revenue from software licensing fees, and reduction in professional services of that segment.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, other income decreased by approximately $600,000, primarily driven by the Company's interest in AVM, Ltd., whose income was approximately 60% less than for the same period of 2008. The income from the Company's interest in AVM Ltd., was income of approximately $463,000 in the first quarter of 2009 compared to income of $1,166,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash position decreased $44,102 in the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to an increase of $164,419 during the comparable period in 2008. Net cash flow used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009, was $169,912, compared with cash used in operations of approximately $1,536,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The primary reason for the $1,366,088 difference is a decrease in operating costs and the recognition of deferred revenues associated with completed implementation contracts. Net cash used by financing activities was $331,992 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to cash provided by financing activities of approximately $356,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2008 was primarily affected from investments from the minority shareholder in the amount of approximately $375,000. During the period ending March 31, 2009, approximately $472,000 was used to reduce related party debt and investments from minority shareholder was $140,000. Net cash provided by investing activities relates primarily to the distribution from AVM of $460,992 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This compares to net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008, of approximately $1,345,000. The distribution from AVM for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was approximately $1,389,000.

The ability of Consulier to continue to generate cash flow in excess of its normal operating requirements depends almost entirely on the performance of its limited partnership interest in AVM. Consulier cannot, with any degree of assurance, predict whether there will be a continuation of the net return from our interest in AVM for the three months ended March 31, 2009, nor whether we will continue to be able to obtain additional funding when necessary. However, Consulier does not expect that the rate of return will decline to the point that Consulier has negative cash flow.
Consulier is planning to continue to invest in ST, LLC, and estimates an additional investment of $2 million to $3 million during the next two years, at which time the goal is for ST, LLC to be at the break-even point for its operations. The Company anticipates that the cash which it will use to invest in ST, LLC will be available from the Company's interest in AVM and BioSafe. The Company does not trade derivative instruments. However, AVM enters into various transactions involving derivatives and other off-balance sheet financial instruments. These derivatives and off-balance sheet instruments are subject to varying degrees of market and credit risk.
OUTLOOK
Based on AVM's operations over the past five years, management expects continued return in 2009 on its interest in AVM; however, there is no guarantee that the return in the first quarter of 2009 will be maintained throughout fiscal 2009. Consulier International, Inc., continues to develop new retail and distribution outlets locally, nationally and internationally. However, sales of that company's primary product, Captain Cra-Z Hand and All Purpose Cleaner, have decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2009, by 39% over the comparable 2008 period.
PCTS successfully completed three implementations across its high acuity tracking and documentation portfolio. These included patient and asset tracking in the cardiovascular department at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center (Portland, OR); patient and asset tracking in the emergency department at Moses Taylor Hospital (Scranton, PA); and emergency department documentation (EDIS) at Stafford Hospital Center in Virginia. During the quarter, PCTS also exhibited at two national clinical conferences. PCTS customer implementations were profiled in trade publications and the Company's emergency department implementation at Albert Einstein Medical Center was featured as a patient flow case study best practice by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), a division of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
PCTS currently supports 28 completed installations of its core product line of electronic tracking and documentation solutions with over 12 implementations in progress. Including its non-core solutions, PCTS supports a total customer base of 66 implementations representing over 1.8 million annual patient encounters.

The Company's income from its interest in BioSafe was $26,282 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to a loss of $43,813 for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, decreased by 36% compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The Company expects continued sales growth and continued success with cost containment.
