Item 1. Business - -----------------
Introduction Imtek Office Solutions Inc., (the Company), formerly Spectrum Equities Inc., effectively commenced operations on April 22, 1997 and engages in the retail and wholesale of copiers and facsimiles, servicing of office equipment, rebuilding and rental of high volume copiers and duplicators, providing commercial printing, duplicating and document outsourcing services, and to a lesser extent, the retail sale of office supplies. The Company operates in the Mid-Atlantic region, consisting of Baltimore, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Richmond, Virginia, and the Tidewater area of Southeastern Virginia.
History The Company was organized as a Delaware corporation in 1987 under the name Vision Capital, Inc. On March 31, 1989, it completed a public offering of 10,000 units at a price of $5.00 each, which units were included in a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On May 31, 1990, Vision entered into an agreement of merger with Wilmoth's Color Lab, Inc., ("Wilmoth"), a Tennessee Corporation, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Wilmoth in exchange for a total of 15,340,000 newly issued shares of Vision common stock, which merger resulted in a change in the voting control, principal business, and management of Vision. By September 1, 1990, the merger of Wilmoth into Vision was consummated and Vision changed its name to Diversified Photographic Industries, Inc., and continued the operations of Wilmoth, a photo finishing laboratory in Memphis, Tennessee. Wilmoth conducted operations in that location through the date of the merger. The Company continued its operations as a photo finishing laboratory, processing and printing film for commercial photographers and photographic studios , including portrait studio operations, up until the time that the Company ceased operations on March 15, 1992. At that time, the secured creditors foreclosed upon the principal assets of the Company and the remaining unsecured assets were sold to United Color Lab, Inc. on August 21, 1992 for the sum of $85,000.00. From that time the Company has been dormant. The Company filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas and its Plan of Reorganization was approved in 1995 and the Company emerged as a corporate shell with no liabilities relating to its prior business ventures. Subsequently, the Company changed its name to Spectrum Equities, Inc. on February 26, 1996. In April, 1997, the Company acquired all of outstanding stock of Imtek Corp.
and changed its name to Imtek Office Solutions, Inc.
The Company is a supplier of equipment, products, technologies and services used in offices to manage information and documents including copier and printing systems, integrated computer networking and document management services. The Company also generates revenues and earnings from merchant banking and specialty finance activities including equipment leasing, accounts receivable financing and factoring, and viatical settlements.
Management envisions that the Company will become the preferred single source provider of office solutions and a leader in select finance and merchant banking business within certain geographic regions.
Acquisition Strategy - --------------------
The company intends to expand its business through the strategic acquisition of companies with similar products and services in additional geographic areas. Additionally, the Company anticipates acquiring other companies that would provide the Company with expanded or additional products and services. Acquisitions of companies with similar product lines and services, management believes, would benefit from the Company's centralized management, systems of internal control, additional financing sources, and the Company's marketing efforts.
Management believes that adequate acquisition opportunities exist. The Company anticipates that significant acquisitions would be funded principally from the issuance of capital stock. However, to a lesser extent, acquisitions may be funded by cash generated from operations of the acquired company or the issuance of long term debt obligations.
Competition - -----------
The Company's business is highly competitive with numerous competitors in its geographic area. The Company is in direct competition with local, regional and national equipment suppliers and dealers, mass merchandisers, and to a lesser extent, wholesale buying clubs. Principal areas of competition focus on quality and response time of after-the-sale service, parts availability, product capability, rental agreements and financing, and price. The Company competes with companies that have greater financial strength and marketing resources.
Customers - ---------
The Company focuses its office solutions marketing efforts primarily on small and mid-size businesses, regional offices of large companies, professional service firms, hospitals, educational institutions and governmental agencies located in or near the areas where the Company maintains offices. Sales representatives and sales management are compensated based on a combination of gross sales revenue and point-of-sale profits. A key element of the Company's operating philosophy is to provide all sales representatives and managers with an ongoing program of training and education. These sales education programs consist of in-house training, manufacturer provided training and other educational courses and seminars. The Company holds weekly sales meetings to reinforce the consistent application of its procedures and sales strategies.
Additionally, the Company intends to market its proposed financial services programs through its existing direct sales force, brokers, print media, and mass communication media, such as radio.
At September 30, 1997, no one customer accounted for more than 5% of gross sales.
Vendors and Suppliers - ---------------------
Products purchased by and distributed by the Company may be acquired from numerous domestic and international suppliers. The Company has not experienced, and does not anticipate experiencing, any significant difficulty in obtaining these products and supplies.
The Company's primary products are photocopiers, facsimile equipment, computers and office products, technologies and services used in offices to manage information and documents. Management believes it is in the Company's best interest to maintain a close working relationship with a number of equipment manufacturers as to allow the Company to purchase equipment and related parts and supplies at competitive prices. The inability of the Company to maintain these key relationships could result in disruptions of Company operations.
Since the Company's business is dependent upon its vendors and suppliers, the Company has identified MITA Corporation, the world's third largest manufacturer of photocopiers and facsimile machines, as its preferred office equipment vendor. Additionally, the Company has selected JP Richards, the second largest office supply wholesaler in the U.S., as its primary vendor of office supplies for resale.
Management believes that these strategic alliances will provide the Company with sufficient product for
sale at competitive prices.
Employees - ---------
As of September 30, 1997, the Company employed 72 persons, none of which were covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Management believes that its employee relations are good.
The Company relies heavily on its senior management and the loss of any one of them could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. Additionally, the Company's ability to successfully grow and implement its strategic acquisition policy, which is extremely important to the Company and its ongoing operations, would be impaired upon the loss of key personnel.
Technology - ----------
The Company believes that the office equipment markets will continually change with the advent of digital technology, which provides for one piece of office equipment to directly communicate with another. Management believes that this technology may result in fewer stand alone units being sold. Additionally, management believes that this shift to multi-functioning equipment may result in increased training costs for the Company's service technicians.
The advent of the color photocopier, management believes, will become a greater component of the Company's sales. The Company anticipates expanding its efforts and product line in this area, since these color copiers can accept digital output from computers, thus increasing the functionality of the copier.
Environmental Regulation - ------------------------
The Company's business and product lines generally do not generate significant hazardous waste. Federal, state, and local regulations have not had, and are not expected to have, a material adverse affect upon the Company or its financial condition.
Forward Looking Information - ---------------------------
The report includes or incorporates by reference certain statements which are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on various factors and assumptions that include known and unknown risks and uncertainties, changes in economic conditions, increases in raw material, subcontract, labor costs, and general competitive factors may cause actual results to differ materially.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 7.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations -------------
Imtek Office Solutions Inc., (the Company), formerly Spectrum Equities, Inc. effectively commenced operations on April 22, 1997 engaging in the retail and wholesale sale of copiers and facsimiles, servicing of office equipment, rebuilding and rental of high volume copiers and duplicators, providing commercial printing and duplicating services, and to a lesser extent, the retail sale of office supplies. The Company provides servicing of office equipment principally through the use of subcontractors. The Company also intends on providing specialty finance and merchant banking services. The Company operates in the Mid-Atlantic region, consisting of Baltimore, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Richmond, Virginia, and the Tidewater area of Southeastern Virginia.
ACQUISITION STOCK ISSUANCE
On April 22, 1997, the shareholders of Spectrum Equities, Inc., (Spectrum) a Delaware Corporation, executed a 400 for 1 reverse stock split. After the stock split, Spectrum had 625,161 shares of common stock, all one class, issued and outstanding. Furthermore, on April 22, 1997 Spectrum's shareholders authorized and approved the acquisition of Imtek Corporation by the issuance of 4,374,839 shares of Spectrum stock for all 50,000 issued and authorized shares of Imtek Corporation. Subsequently, the shareholders approved the corporation's name to be changed to Imtek Office Solutions, Inc. The acquisition and name change have been reported on Form 8-K of April 22, 1997, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company, as discussed above and reported on Form 8-K, effectively commenced operations on April 22, 1997. Prior to this date, the Companys' predecessor, Imtek Corporation, was a development stage company with no operations.
During the year ended September 30, 1997, the Company generated gross revenue of $2,094,972. Approximately 33.6% of gross revenue was derived from the sale of equipment servicing and supplies. The remaining 66.4% of gross revenue was derived from the sale, both retail and wholesale, of equipment.
Cost of goods sold for the year ended September 30 1997 was $1,868,703, or approximately 89.2% of gross revenue. The cost of goods sold that relate to equipment servicing was 656,439 (35.1% of cost of goods sold), while the cost of goods sold for equipment sales was approximately $1,212,264 (64.9% of cost of goods sold).
The Company's gross profit for the year ended September 30, 1997 was $226,264, or approximately 10.8% of gross revenue.
General and Administrative, and selling expenses for the year was $153,836, or approximately 7.3% of gross revenue. The Company's Officers elected not to receive or defer remuneration during this period. This election of non-compensation may not be continued in the future, and thus general and administrative expenses could increase in subsequent periods.
Income from operations and before taxes and interest was $72,433, or approximately 3.5% of gross revenue.
During the year, the Company received $6,534 in interest income which was principally derived from notes receivables. The Company does not anticipate significant interest income in subsequent periods.
The Company's effective income tax rate for the year was 26.1%. Because of the tax impact of special transactions and depending upon the Company's income or loss level in a given period, these rates may vary dramatically.
The net earnings of the Company for the year ended September 30, 1997 was $58,367, or 2.8% of gross revenue.
The Company anticipates revenue growth in subsequent periods such that period to period comparisons may not provide meaningful analysis. The Company anticipates that the core business of sales and servicing if copiers will generate growth in line with general economic conditions within the Mid-Atlantic region. However, the Company anticipates expanding its operations in the wholesale equipment sales market by means of increased marketing efforts. The Company believes that it has a thorough understanding of the wholesale market, with experience and an established network. Additionally, the Company anticipates the expansion of its services with its
copy services operations. By becoming a cost effective and responsive provider of copier services to certain business segments, the Company anticipates that it can more fully expand this component of its operations. The Company also intends to generate substantial future revenues and earnings from merchant banking and specialty finance services including equipment leasing, accounts receivable financing and factoring , and viatical settlements.
The Board of Directors of the Company have authorized the issuance of a $7,500,000, 9% convertible preferred stock through a private placement memorandum. As of January 7, 1998 this offering memorandum was not yet complete and the offering was not open. The Company anticipates further expansion by means of acquisition, which may be funded by either the issuance of additional capital stock, long term debt, or use of the proceeds generated from the private placement memorandum.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operating activities resulted in positive cash flow of $105,631 for the year. Cash flow of $75,740 was used in investing activities, consisting of the purchase of equipment ($35,740) and the down payment on certain computer software ($40,000). In April, 1997 the Company issued 4,374,839 shares of common stock to acquire Imtek Corporation. The value of the assets acquired were $710,563, which consisted of inventory ($353,954) and accounts receivable ($356,609).
Consistent with the commencement of operations, the Company experienced fluctuations in certain balance sheet accounts. The cash flow from operations was primarily in response to net earnings and the decrease in accounts receivable and inventory, with the increase in accounts payable and other liabilities providing a lesser impact. The Company recognized an decrease in accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, over the amount purchased from Imtek Corporation, of $36,210. The inventory decreased $131,950 from the amount purchased from Imtek Corporation. During the year, the Company expended $35,740 for fixed assets, which are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Additionally, the company recognized total trade accounts payable of $154,875 at September 30,1997.
The Company has financed its cash flow requirements from either operations or through the issuance of capital stock and to a lesser extent, short-term credit arrangements through related parties, see item 13. As of January 7, 1998, the Company has not entered into a revolving credit arrangement with any financial institutions. The Company believes that should external financing become necessary, it will be able to obtain sufficient resources
at market values.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accounting and Financial Disclosures - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Imtek Office Solutions, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Imtek Office Solutions, Inc. as of September 30, 1997 and the related statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. 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 audit. The financial statements of Imtek Office Solutions, Inc. as of September 30, 1996 and 1995 were audited by other auditors whose report on those statements dated October 15, 1996 included an explanatory paragraph that described the financial statements as having been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 1997 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Imtek Office Solutions, Inc. as of September 30, 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
