PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
LanVision Systems, Inc. ("LanVision"(TM) or the "Company") is a leading
provider of healthcare information access systems that enable hospitals and
integrated healthcare networks to capture, manage, store, retrieve and process
vast amounts of clinical and financial patient information. The Company's
systems deliver on-line enterprise-wide access to fully-updated patient
information which historically was maintained on a variety of media, including
paper, magnetic disk, optical disk, x-ray film, video, audio and microfilm.
LanVision's systems, which incorporate data management, document imaging and
workflow technologies, consolidate patient information into a single repository
and provide fast and efficient access to patient information from universal
workstations located throughout the enterprise, including the point of patient
care. The systems are specifically designed to meet the needs of physicians and
other medical and administrative personnel and can accommodate multiple users
requiring simultaneous access to patient information, thereby eliminating file
contention. By providing access to all forms of patient information, the Company
believes that its healthcare information access systems are essential components
of the computer-based patient record ("CPR").
On February 8, 1996, the Company was reorganized when LanVision Systems, Inc.
was incorporated in the State of Delaware as a holding company with LanVision,
Inc. as a wholly-owned operating subsidiary incorporated in 1989 in the State of
Ohio. The result of the reorganization is that the stockholders of LanVision,
Inc. became the owners of all the outstanding shares of LanVision Systems,
Inc.'s common and preferred stock, and LanVision
3
4
Systems, Inc. became the owner of all of the outstanding shares of LanVision,
Inc.'s common and preferred stock.
On April 18, 1996, the Registrant issued 2,912,500 Shares of Common Stock in an
initial public offering. The net proceeds to the Company, after expenses, was
$34,304,782.
Industry Background
Over the last ten years, healthcare expenditures have doubled to approximately
$1.0 trillion, and currently represent approximately 14% of the U.S. Gross
Domestic Product. In response to these dramatic increases, the healthcare
industry is undergoing significant change as competition and cost-containment
measures imposed by governmental and private payors have created substantial
pressures on healthcare providers to control healthcare costs while providing
quality patient care. At the same time, the healthcare delivery system is
experiencing a shift from a highly fragmented group of non-allied healthcare
providers to integrated healthcare networks which combine all of the services,
products and equipment necessary to address the needs of healthcare customers.
As a result, healthcare providers are seeking to cut costs, increase
productivity and enhance the quality of patient care through improved access to
information throughout the entire hospital or integrated healthcare network.
Today, the majority of the patient record is paper-based in most hospitals. The
inefficiencies of a paper-based record increase the cost of patient care.
According to The Computer-Based Patient Record published in 1991 by The
Institute of Medicine, physicians cannot gain access to medical records up to
30% of the time during patient visits, and users cannot simultaneously access
the record when only a single copy of the paper-based patient record is
available. In the Company's experience in installing its systems, a typical 500
bed hospital can produce 20,000 to 25,000 pages of new patient information each
day even with computerized admission, billing, laboratory and radiology systems,
and individual physician document retrieval requests can be as high as 100 per
physician per day. The volume of medical images in the patient record is
expanding as well. In addition to classic images such as x-rays and CAT scans,
new image forms such as digitized slides, videos and photographs proliferate.
Thus, the ability to store and retrieve images of voluminous paper records and
medical images on a timely basis is a critical feature of a complete CPR.
In order to simultaneously reduce costs and enhance the level of patient care,
hospitals and other healthcare providers are demanding comprehensive,
cost-effective information systems that deliver rapid access to fully updated
and complete patient information. Traditional healthcare information systems are
inadequate because (i) they do not capture large amounts of the patient record
which are paper-based and stored in various sites throughout the enterprise;
(ii) computerized patient data is generated using a variety of disparate systems
which cannot share information; and (iii) multimedia medical information such as
x-rays, CAT scans, MRI's, video and audio information are frequently
inaccessible at the point of patient care. Accordingly, hospitals and other
healthcare providers have begun to increase their healthcare information systems
expenditures. In a hospital survey jointly conducted by Hewlett-Packard and the
Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society in February 1997, 35% of
those
4
5
surveyed expected their healthcare information system budgets to increase by
over 30% per year and 19% expected their budgets to increase by over 50% per
year. In addition, 20% of the institutions plan to focus on clinical data
repositories and 19% on electronic medical records. The Kennedy Group, a
healthcare consulting firm, projected in an April, 1995, study that healthcare
information technology expenditures will double or triple over five years,
resulting in a total market size of $18 to $20 billion by the year 2000.
Document imaging and workflow technologies are essential elements of a CPR
because they allow for the storage of unstructured data (i.e., patient record
elements other than data or text, such as photographs, images of the document,
video, x-ray images) and they enable digitized x-rays, CAT scans, MRI's, video
and audio information to be accessed and delivered to the caregiver at the point
of patient care. The Company's management believes the demand for the Company's
healthcare information access systems, which can supply imaging capabilities to
the CPR, will increase in future years.
The LanVision Solution
LanVision's healthcare information access systems provide solutions for the
patient information access needs of hospitals and integrated healthcare
networks. LanVision's systems enable medical and administrative personnel to
rapidly and efficiently capture, manage, store, retrieve and process vast
amounts of clinical and financial patient information.
LanVision's systems (i) capture and store electronic data from disparate
hospital information systems through real-time, computerized interfaces; (ii)
facilitate the storage of digitized multimedia data and medical images such as
x-rays, CAT scans, MRI's, video and audio information; (iii) provide
applications for efficiently scanning and automatically indexing paper-based
records; (iv) allow storage of a patient's lifetime medical record on low cost
optical disks which also provides rapid access to high volumes of data
enterprise-wide; (v) provide workflow automation to facilitate the reengineering
of business processes; and (vi) incorporate physician-oriented interfaces that
allow the user to easily locate and retrieve patient information in the hospital
or clinical setting, including the point of patient care.
LanVision's healthcare information access systems provide financial,
administrative, and clinical benefits to the healthcare provider and facilitate
more effective patient care. These benefits include:
improved access to patient information by various search criteria to assist in
making informed clinical and financial decisions;
reduced costs for administrative personnel due to increased workflow efficiency,
as data can be routed within an organization to all users who need to process
that information simultaneously or in sequence as required;
increased productivity through the elimination of file contention by providing
multiple users simultaneous access to patient medical records;
5
6
reduced costs and improved care through the reduction of unnecessary testing and
admissions;
improved cash flow through accelerated collections and reduction of "technical
denials" (which occur when a third-party payor refuses payment because of the
provider's inability to substantiate billing claims due to loss of portions or
all of the patient record);
expedited treatment decisions, improved predictability of patient outcomes and
fewer redundant tests as a result of timely access to complete information;
fewer medical record errors by minimizing misfiled, lost and improperly
completed records; and
increased security of patient information through improved controls on access to
confidential data and the creation of audit trails that identify the persons who
accessed or even tried to access such information.
The LanVision Strategy
The Company's objective is to continue to be a leading provider of healthcare
information access systems. Important elements of the Company's business
strategy include:
Expand Sales, Marketing and Distribution Channels. In fiscal 1996, LanVision
increased its sales and marketing personnel from eight to thirty and increased
its advertising and other marketing activities. The planned expansion was
designed to increase the Company's direct and indirect sales capabilities and
expand LanVision's overall presence in the market place. The Company intends to
continue to expand its direct sales operation especially in geographic areas the
company is currently not present. However, the overall expansion will be at a
slower pace than in 1996 and will be monitored along with the Company's
assessment of market share growth opportunities. During 1996 and through April
15, 1997, the Company established strategic marketing relationships with Lanier
Worldwide, Inc., 3M Health Information Systems, Daou Systems, Inc. and Crowe,
Chizek and Company LLP. The Company intends to increase the number of
third-party marketing reseller/referral arrangements, and increase LanVision's
pre-sales support to these partners.
Develop New Software Applications and Increase the Functionality of Existing
Applications. During 1996, the Company released new versions of
ChartVision(R) with increased functionality along with MultiView(TM), an
advanced ChartVision viewer providing users with a longitudinal view of patient
data with multiple document display, intuitive screen flows and familiar folder
and tab functionality. Also, in 1996, the Company continued development of
On-Line Chart Completion(TM), an advanced application that automates the
identification and processing of deficiencies in patient charts. Currently,
On-Line Chart Completion is installed at two beta sites. Additionally, in 1996,
the Company began development of Correspondence, an application that helps
healthcare organizations quickly and efficiently complete and invoice requests
for patient information from various external sources. Correspondence is
scheduled to be released in the first half of fiscal 1997. The Company also
continued development of OmniVision(TM), a suite of
6
7
image-enabling and workflow applications that allows physicians, clinicians and
other users to access information, such as document and medical images that were
previously unavailable through their existing applications. OmniVision has been
ordered by several customers and will be delivered in the first half of 1997.
Also, in 1996, the Company began developing version 2.0 of AccountVision(R).
AccountVision 2.0 will have increased functionality and be more conducive to
broad scale sales distribution. Finally, during 1996, the Company began
development of WebView(TM), a product that will allow hospitals and integrated
delivery networks to take advantage of the World Wide Web whereby users can
immediately and simultaneously access healthcare information across the Internet
with complete security and audit trail. LanVision intends to continue to expand
its product development efforts and increase the functionality of existing
applications along with the development of new applications using document
imaging and workflow technologies.
Image-Enable Clinical Data Repositories and Other Applications Software. Today,
health information is often stored on numerous dissimilar host-based and
departmental systems that are spread throughout the enterprise and are not
integrated. Additionally, these current systems do not address the data stored
on paper or the increasing volume of medical images such as x-rays, CAT scans,
digitized slides, exploratory scopes, photographs, audio, etc. LanVision
believes the efficiencies and productivity of hospitals and integrated delivery
networks can be greatly enhanced by seamlessly integrating their historical
information systems with document imaging and workflow applications. Physicians,
clinicians and other healthcare users then have access to the complete patient
record, including the structured data, such as a lab result, and the related
unstructured data, such as an x-ray or a doctor's hand written note. Currently,
LanVision is working with several vendors to image-enable their clinical data
repository systems and other applications. LanVision is marketing image-enabling
through its product OmniVision, which is scheduled for delivery in the first
half of 1997. LanVision intends to continue to aggressively market its unique
image-enabling solutions to end users and other third-party software application
providers.
Market New Entry Level System. Historically, LanVision has focused on large
hospitals, where the initial investment by customers in LanVision's systems may
exceed $1,000,000. A study conducted in 1994 by the Rheinner Group, a consulting
firm, indicated that over 60% of the document imaging market opportunities were
in hospitals and clinics planning to invest less than $500,000. To address the
needs of this market segment, LanVision introduced 1stVision(TM), a
pre-configured departmental ChartVision system that can be purchased for less
than $500,000 and subsequently be expanded enterprise-wide.
Maintain Technological Leadership. LanVision's systems use advanced
client/server architecture and service some of the nation's leading healthcare
providers. The Company has achieved technological leadership by designing its
applications software to operate on multiple hardware platforms, operating
systems, imaging engines, workflow engines and database management systems. In
addition, ChartVision was designed with application program interfaces to enable
third-party software applications to easily access ChartVision features and
functionality. The Company intends to maintain technological leadership by
continuing to apply advances in
7
8
computer software and hardware technology to the development, implementation and
support of its systems.
Systems and Services
LanVision's systems employ an open architecture which supports a variety of
operating systems, including Microsoft Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT and UNIX.
The Company's systems can be configured with various hardware platforms,
including INTEL-compatible personal computers, IBM RS/6000, Hewlett-Packard
9000, Sun Sparc 1000 and NCR 3000 computers. The Company's systems include a
graphical user interface designed specifically by the Company for physicians and
other medical and administrative personnel in hospitals and integrated
healthcare networks. The Company's systems operate on multiple imaging
platforms, including those of FileNet, Kofax, and Optika. The Company's
healthcare information access systems incorporate advanced features which allow
customers to restrict direct access to confidential patient information, secure
patient data from unauthorized indirect access and have audit trail features.
Currently, the Company markets, installs and services ChartVision and
AccountVision. Additionally, the Company has recently installed On-Line Chart
Completion, at two beta sites and On-Line Chart Completion has been ordered by
other customers but not yet delivered. Also, the Company is image-enabling
certain clinical data repositories for customers that will incorporate
OmniVision. Additionally, the Company has various new products and add-on
modules under development. A brief description of the Company's products,
including products in development, follows:
ChartVision, originally developed in 1991, is a highly-evolved electronic
patient record application, that is designed to provide health information when
and where it is needed. This software replaces the physical paper medical record
with optical imaging technology. In addition, it has the ability to image-enable
third-party applications as well as accept data from other hospital information
systems. Health information traditionally stored on magnetic tape, optical disk,
x-ray film, video, audio and microfilm is consolidated into a single point of
access with ChartVision.
AccountVision is a patient financial services application based on document
imaging and workflow technology. It streamlines all areas of patient financial
services by reducing or eliminating the paper being gathered, assembled, and
manually routed through the department. AccountVision stores documents on
optical and magnetic disk for easy inquiry and retrieval processing. This allows
AccountVision to bring billing attachments and documentation to patient
financial service representatives when and where they need it. AccountVision
allows automated management of the volumes of information being transmitted
electronically, including data from a healthcare facility's registration,
billing, managed care systems, etc. AccountVision, Version 1.0, incorporates
software originally developed by Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, a 565
bed hospital located in New York City, and the Company licenses the exclusive
marketing rights and source code to this application. (Memorial Sloan-Kettering
continues to use the original software.) The installation of AccountVision 1.0
includes the customization of software code to meet the customer's specific
needs. AccountVision 1.0 has been installed and is in production at Stanford
University Medical Center. AccountVision 2.0 is currently being developed by
LanVision. AccountVision 2.0 will have increased functionality and modularity,
which will
8
9
typically reduce the need for customization. Additionally, AccountVision 2.0
will have a common database with ChartVision. AccountVision 2.0 is expected to
be completed in the second half of 1997.
On-Line Chart Completion is an add-on module to ChartVision and is in its final
development stages. It is currently installed at two beta sites. On-Line Chart
Completion provides healthcare facilities with automated management of chart
deficiencies. Through the integration of medical records workflow processing and
imaging technology, On-Line Chart Completion enables the deficiency analyst to
identify, assign, review and reassign medical record deficiencies. The clinician
can sign documents, annotate and highlight, view the entire record while
dictating, attach notes and comments and complete assigned deficiencies.
Management can track and report on deficiency progress throughout the
enterprise. On-Line Chart Completion also provides standard Joint Commission on
the Accreditations of Healthcare Organizations reports and customer defined
reports. Cases can be updated at any time and simultaneous access to the
documents eliminates file contention. The automated, flexible workflow processes
were designed to be intuitive to the end users, analysts and clinicians. This
makes it easy for clinicians to finish their on-line "paper work." Because it is
flexible and easy to use, On-Line Chart Completion helps customers increase
efficiency immediately. As a result, hospitals and integrated delivery networks
can quickly improve cash flow through faster billing, reduced denials and
optimized coding.
Correspondence is currently being developed and will be an add-on module to
ChartVision and AccountVision. Correspondence is expected to be completed in the
first half of 1997. Correspondence was developed to help hospitals and
integrated delivery networks quickly and efficiently complete requests for
information from various sources. It is an automated, flexible workflow
processing and management reporting system. It provides on-line access to all
pertinent information. The implementation of a workflow system offers an
opportunity to streamline and re-design existing core operational processes. The
correspondence analyst's work queue accepts incoming requests that are faxed,
scanned (mail), manually created (phone call) or delivered through an interface
from another system within the enterprise. Once a request is received by the
Correspondence system, it automatically initiates the workflow process and moves
the users through the pre-defined steps necessary to fulfill the request. The
actual request document can also be routed as an attachment and is then
available as needed. Requests are tracked and the current status can be viewed
on-line. The Correspondence system has a flexible invoice processing option that
can be built into the workflow process, and it produces standard productivity,
revenue and summary reports. Ad hoc reports may also be generated.
OmniVision is also in its final development stages and is expected to be
completed in the first half of 1997. OmniVision is a suite of image-enabling and
workflow applications that provides physicians, clinicians and other healthcare
users with immediate, simultaneous access to any patient information including
multimedia and paper-based information, through their existing applications.
OmniVision delivers unstructured data and workflow automation to any third-party
application while creating a complete historical repository. As a result,
OmniVision allows hospitals and integrated delivery systems to consolidate all
health information, whether text, document and
9
10
medical images, sound, or video into one easily accessible repository. This
provides a significant advantage to healthcare organizations that currently rely
on manual processes or multiple non-integrated applications to access the
complete patient record.
OmniVision allows any application across the entire enterprise to be
image-enabled, from the host healthcare information system, to human resources,
materials management, patient billing, as well as clinical data repositories
("CDR"), computer-based patient record systems, and others. And when the CDR is
image-enabled, users can access any piece of information on the same workstation
and from the same screen display, including the point of patient care. This
means that users can view traditional electronic data and images simultaneously
on the same screen without signing in and out of multiple applications.
LanVision is currently working with various customers to image-enable their
existing information systems using OmniVision including: the "Oacis" clinical
data repository system at Stanford University Medical Center; the "PHAMIS"
clinical data repository at Grant/Riverside Methodist Hospital and U.S. Health
Corporation; and the "AutoCyte" pathology system at the University of Pittsburgh
Medical Center. The Company is also in the process of image-enabling the 3M
Healthcare Enterprise Management system, a CPR system and the MasterChart CPR
system, currently being distributed by Lanier Healthcare Systems.
The Company views the seamless integration of its products with third-party
clinical data repository software systems and other applications systems as a
key element of the Company's business strategy. To the degree that the Company
is successful in image-enabling these applications, the Company believes that it
will be able to offer its image-enabling systems to other healthcare providers
using systems such as Oacis, PHAMIS, etc.
WebView development began in the second half of fiscal 1996. WebView will
provide seamless, easy access to any health information via the Internet. With
WebView, Hospitals and integrated delivery networks will be able to take
advantage of the World Wide Web for truly enterprise-wide access. Regardless of
where they are located, healthcare users will be able to immediately and
simultaneously access any healthcare information across the Internet with
complete security and audit trail. Using popular Internet browsers, WebView will
allow authorized users to query LanVision systems, retrieving, displaying,
navigating and printing documents in accordance with appropriate security
permissions restrictions. WebView will allow healthcare organizations to
establish a private, secure intranet (a private network that utilizes Internet
protocols and technology) and scale to the Internet as appropriate. Development
of WebView is expected to be completed in late fiscal 1997.
The Company continues to focus its research and development efforts to develop
new application software and increase the functionality of existing
applications. The Company's research and development efforts are influenced
significantly by customer requirements and desires. During fiscal 1996, the
Company's product development staff grew from five to nineteen people. The
company intends to continue to expand its product development staff in fiscal
1997.
10
11
Professional Services provided by LanVision complements its systems by offering
high quality professional services which the Company believes are critical to
attracting new customers and maintaining existing customer satisfaction. These
services include implementation and training, project management and custom
software development. The implementation and training services include equipment
and software installation, system integration and comprehensive training. The
project management services include needs and cost/benefit analysis, hardware
and software configuration and business process re-engineering. The custom
software development services include interface development, software
development and modification services.
Existing Customers
The Company's customers include healthcare providers located throughout the
United States. LanVision has implemented or is in the process of implementing
one or more of its systems in the following institutions: Albert Einstein Health
Network, Philadelphia, PA; Beth Israel Medical Center, New York, NY; Phillips
Ambulatory Care Center, New York, NY; Cox Health Systems, Springfield, MO;
Holzer Medical Center, Gallipolis, OH; ProMedica Health Systems, Toledo, OH; St.
Alexius Medical Center, Bismarck, ND; Stanford University Medical Center, Palo
Alto, CA; St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center, Hartford, CT; Summa Health
System: Akron City Hospital, Akron, OH; and St. Thomas Medical Center, Akron,
OH; University Hospital, Cincinnati, OH; University of Pittsburgh Medical
Center, Pittsburgh, PA; U.S. Health Corporation: Grant/Riverside Methodist
Hospital, Columbus, OH.
In fiscal year 1996, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Beth Israel
Medical Center and University Hospital, Cincinnati, OH, accounted for 21%, 17%
and 11%, respectively, of the Company's total revenues. In fiscal year 1995,
Beth Israel Medical Center, Albert Einstein Health Network and University
Hospital, Cincinnati, OH, accounted for 35%, 19% and 16%, respectively, of the
Company's total revenues. In fiscal year 1994, Beth Israel Medical Center,
University Hospital, Cincinnati, OH and Summa Health System accounted for 37%,
35% and 19%, respectively, of the Company's total revenues. The small number of
customers and the extended sales cycle have contributed to variability in
quarterly and annual operating results. The Company expects that as its customer
base continues to increase, the actions of any one customer will have less of an
effect on its quarterly and annual operating results.
Signed Agreements - Backlog
LanVision enters into master agreements with its customers to specify the scope
of the system to be installed and services to be provided by LanVision, the
agreed upon aggregate price and the timetable for implementation. The master
agreement typically provides that the Company will deliver the system in phases
pursuant to the customer's purchase orders, thereby allowing the customer
flexibility in the timing of its receipt of systems and to make adjustments that
may arise based upon changes in technology or changes in customer needs. The
master agreement also allows the customer to request additional components as
the installation progresses, which additions are then separately negotiated as
to price and terms. Historically, customers have ultimately purchased systems
and services in addition to those originally contemplated by the master
agreement, although there can be no assurance that this trend will continue in
the future.
11
12
At January 31, 1997 and January 31, 1996, the Company's customers had entered
into master agreements for systems and services (excluding maintenance) which
had not yet been delivered, installed and accepted which, if fully performed,
would generate sales of approximately $6,600,000 and $10,400,000, respectively.
Such master agreements as of January 31, 1997 relate to ten customers and are
currently expected to be performed over the next two to three years. Of the
backlog at January 31, 1997, the Company has received purchase orders for
approximately $3,200,000 of systems and services (excluding maintenance), of
which $2,200,000 is currently anticipated to be delivered in fiscal year 1997.
The Company's master agreements also generally provide for an initial
maintenance period and give the customer the right to subscribe for maintenance
services on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Maintenance revenues for
fiscal years 1996 and 1995 and 1994 were approximately $1,186,000, $906,000 and
$593,000, respectively.
The commencement of revenue recognition varies depending on the size and
complexity of the system and the implementation schedule requested by the
customer. In addition, shipments to customers may be postponed due to delays in
the Company's development schedule. Therefore, LanVision is unable to accurately
predict the revenue it expects to achieve in any particular period. The
Company's master agreements generally provide that the customer may terminate
its agreement upon a material breach by the Company, may delay certain aspects
of the installation and may terminate the agreement, at the customer's
discretion, without penalty and without regard to the Company's performance. To
date, no customer has terminated a master agreement, although customers have
delayed installations from the original scheduled installation date and have
modified the original system configuration. There can be no assurance that a
customer will not cancel all or any portion of a master agreement in the future.
A termination or installation delay of one or more phases of an agreement, or
the failure of the Company to procure additional agreements, could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Royalties
AccountVision, Version 1.01, incorporates software originally developed by
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York. In 1994, Memorial
Sloan-Kettering granted to LanVision the exclusive marketing rights to this
software. Memorial Sloan-Kettering also granted to LanVision a non-exclusive,
unlimited copy license to re-use and reengineer this software. The Company's
agreement with Memorial Sloan-Kettering provides that the Company will pay a
specified royalty to Memorial Sloan-Kettering each time the Company provides
AccountVision, Version 1.0, to another customer. The initial term of the
agreement expires in October 1997 and is automatically renewable for one year
periods thereafter. Memorial Sloan-Kettering may terminate the agreement prior
to expiration if the Company fails to meet stated minimum licensing and sales
representative quotas. To date, AccountVision 1.0 has only been installed at
Stanford University Medical Center. Currently, LanVision is developing
AccountVision 2.0. AccountVision 2.0 will have increased functionality,

The Company has agreed with several other customers that with regard to specific
customized software and, in one instance, certain derivatives thereof, the
Company will pay a specified royalty to the original customer each time the
Company provides the same software to another customer. As of the date hereof,
the Company has paid no royalties under these agreements.
Sales and Marketing
At January 31, 1996, the Company's sales and marketing force consisted of eight
people, including a regional marketing manager in New York, serving the
northeast United States region; a regional marketing manager in Chicago, serving
the Great Lakes region; and a six-person marketing and sales support team.
During fiscal 1996, the Company expanded its sales and marketing force by
twenty-two people, net. At January 31, 1997, the direct sales force consisted of
nine commissioned sales personnel and seventeen personnel in pre-sales support
and marketing. During 1996, the Company terminated a sales agent in San Diego,
previously serving the Western United States, and this region is now being
served by the Company's direct sales force and the Company's other third-party
resellers. LanVision intends to continue to expand its direct sales force,
especially in areas where the Company does not currently have a geographic
presence. However, the expansion in 1997 will be at a slower pace and will be
monitored along with the Company's assessment of market growth opportunities.
During 1996, the Company placed increased emphasis on indirect distribution
channels. LanVision hired a director of indirect sales channels and transferred
three people from the direct sales group to support the indirect sales
operation.
In March 1996, as an initial step in the Company's strategy to expand its sales,
marketing and distribution channels, the Company entered into a marketing
agreement with Lanier Worldwide, Inc. ("Lanier"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Harris Corporation. LanVision granted to Lanier the non-exclusive right to
market and distribute ChartVision, AccountVision, On-Line Chart Completion and
related applications throughout North America until June 30, 1997 and for
one-year renewal periods thereafter as may be agreed by both parties. Lanier is
obligated to market ChartVision as its exclusive applications software for
medical records except to those Lanier customers currently using certain Lanier
products and except as agreed by both parties. Lanier has the right to terminate
the agreement if LanVision markets a CPR product which directly competes with
Lanier's CPR product and LanVision has the right to terminate the agreement if
Lanier markets a product which directly competes with ChartVision, AccountVision
or On-Line Chart Completion. The contractual terms of the agreement are designed
to operate as an incentive for Lanier to focus on small- to medium-sized
hospitals by providing Lanier with a larger discount for software licensed to
small- to medium-sized hospitals. LanVision will have the first opportunity to
provide installation and maintenance services to customers that have 400 or
13
14
more licensed beds and Lanier will have such first opportunity with regard to
customers that have less than 400 licensed beds.
In April 1997, LanVision and Lanier agreed in principle to a new three year
reseller agreement. Under the proposed agreement, Lanier will market LanVision's
complete line of document imaging applications including ChartVision,
AccountVision, OmniVision, On-Line Chart Completion, Correspondence and WebView.
Lanier has agreed to partner exclusively with LanVision in these application
areas. The new agreement will encompass Lanier's entire 125 member healthcare
sales organization. In addition, Lanier will establish a dedicated team of
specialists that will focus on document imaging and workflow applications.
LanVision has agreed to dedicate a team of pre-sales support personnel to assist
the Lanier sales effort. Lanier will have the right to sub-license LanVision's
proprietary and third-party software in exchange for royalty payments. Royalty
terms for the relicensing of LanVision's systems are the same for large or small
hospitals. Lanier has the option to purchase hardware and professional services
from LanVision.
Both companies intend to pursue joint product integration and marketing
opportunities. One planned project will include the integration of LanVision's
document imaging and On-Line Chart Completion technologies with Lanier's
dictation, medical transcription, data repositories, and digital
copiers/printers. Lanier intends to market this integrated solution as DOCument
Imaging/ES to selected providers of healthcare information and clinical systems
in addition to healthcare enterprises.
In March 1997, LanVision entered into a marketing agreement with 3M Health
Information Systems to integrate OmniVision, LanVision's image-enabling software
application, with the 3M Healthcare Enterprise Management System, a computer
based patient record system. Under the terms of the agreement, 3M Health
Information Systems will receive a commission on LanVision products installed as
a result of qualified leads from 3M Health Information Systems.
Also, in March 1997, LanVision formed a cooperative marketing and professional
services agreement with Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP aimed at the healthcare
industry. In this agreement, Crowe Chizek will recommend LanVision technology in
imaging and workflow opportunities, while LanVision will recommend the services
of Crowe, Chizek in accounts payable opportunities. Crowe Chizek is the 10th
largest consulting and Certified Public Accounting firm in the United States.
In April 1997, LanVision formed a cooperating marketing agreement with Daou
Systems, Inc. ("Daou"), a leader in designing, planning, implementing and
managing computer networks used in the healthcare industry. Under the terms of
the agreement, LanVision and Daou will each promote customer awareness of the
benefits of each other's products. LanVision and Daou have each agreed to pay
the other party a commission on products installed as a result of qualified
leads from the other party.
LanVision intends to continue to expand alternative channels of distribution and
increase LanVision's support of these third-party distributors.

Throughout 1996, the Company experienced extended sales cycles which adversely
affected revenues. It is common for sales cycles to take from six to eighteen
months. The sales cycle consists of several steps, which include initial contact
and lead qualification, response to requests for proposals, analysis of business
requirements, site visits, preparation of final bid and agreement negotiations.
Members of the Company's product development, client services and client support
departments assist the Company's direct sales force in making presentations to,
and preparing comprehensive proposals for potential customers. To support the
Company's sales efforts, the Company conducts a variety of programs intended to
market and position its product line and services. These programs include trade
journal advertising, public relations activities and trade show participation.
Competition
The healthcare information access systems market historically has been dominated
by several companies. The industry is currently undergoing consolidation and
realignment as companies position themselves to compete more effectively.
Strategic alliances between vendors of healthcare information access systems and
vendors of other healthcare systems are increasing. Barriers to entry to this
market include technological and application sophistication, the ability to
offer a proven product, a well-established customer base and distribution
channels, brand recognition, the ability to operate on a variety of operating
systems and hardware platforms, the ability to integrate with pre-existing
systems and capital for sustained development and marketing activities. The
Company believes that these barriers together represent a moderate to high level
barrier to entry. Foreign competition has not been a significant factor in the
market to date.
The Company's competitors include healthcare information systems vendors which
are larger and more established and have substantially more resources than the
Company. In addition, information and document management companies serving
other industries may enter the healthcare information systems market. Suppliers
and companies with which LanVision may establish strategic alliances may also
compete with LanVision. Such companies and vendors may either individually, or
by forming alliances excluding LanVision, place bids for large agreements in
competition with LanVision. A decision on the part of any of these competitors
to focus additional resources in the image-enabling and other markets addressed
by LanVision could have a material adverse effect on LanVision.
LanVision believes that the principal competitive factors in its market are
customer recommendations and references, company reputation, system reliability,
system features (including ease of use), technological advancements, customer
service and support, the effectiveness of marketing and sales efforts, price and
company size. In addition, LanVision believes that the speed with which
companies in its market can anticipate the evolving healthcare industry
structure and identify unmet needs are important competitive factors. There can
be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully in the
future against existing or potential competitors.
15
16
Employees
As of March 31, 1997, LanVision had 101 full-time employees. None of the
Company's employees are represented by a labor union or subject to a collective
bargaining agreement. LanVision has never experienced a work stoppage and
believes that its employee relations are good.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The Company's Common Stock trades on The Nasdaq Stock Market's National Market
under the symbol LANV. The table below sets forth the high and low sales prices
for LanVision Systems, Inc. Common Stock for each of the quarters indicated
since the Company's initial public offering on April 18, 1996, as reported by
The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.
High Low
---- ---
1st Quarter (April 18, 1996 through April 30, 1996) $ 18.75 $ 14.50
2nd Quarter (May 1, 1996 through July 31, 1996) 18.75 8.50
3rd Quarter (August 1, 1996 through October 31, 1996) 14.50 7.75
4th Quarter (November 1, 1996 through January 31, 1997) 9.00 6.25
The market price of the Company's Common Stock has fluctuated significantly
since the initial public offering in April, 1996. The market price of the Common
Stock could be subject to significant fluctuations based on factors such as
announcements of new products or customers by the Company or its competitors,
quarterly fluctuations in the Company's financial results or other competitors'
financial results, changes in analysts' estimates of the Company's financial
performance, general conditions in the healthcare imaging industry as well as
conditions in the financial markets. In addition, the stock market in general
has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations which have particularly
affected the market price of many high technology companies and which have been
often unrelated to the operating performance of a specific company. Many
technology companies, including the Company, have recently experienced wide
fluctuations in the market price of their equity securities. There can be no
assurance that the market price of the Common Stock will not decline, or
otherwise continue to experience significant fluctuations in the future.
According to the transfer agent records, the Company has 106 stockholders of
record as of April 21, 1997. Because many of such shares are held by brokers and
other institutions on behalf of stockholders, the Company is unable to determine
with complete accuracy the total number of stockholders represented by these
record holders. The Company estimates that it has approximately 3,200
stockholders.
The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock since its
inception and does not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable
future.

reasonable and valid under the circumstances and hereby waives all defenses to
the strict enforcement thereof by Parent and/or the Company.

2. AMENDMENT OF SECTION 2.02. The following shall be added to the end
of SECTION 2.02 of the Lease:
"Landlord agrees to perform and complete the work on the
tenant finish improvements in the Additional Space as set out in
AMENDED EXHIBIT B and shall give Tenant written notice of the day on
which Landlord expects to complete such work. Landlord shall provide an
allowance for the direct costs of the tenant finish improvements for
the Additional Space in the amount of Fourteen Dollars and Ninety-four
Cents ($14.94) per rentable square foot of the Additional Space
("Additional Allowance"). The Additional Allowance was determined by
multiplying Sixteen Dollars and Seventy-six Cents ($16.76) (the tenant
finish improvement allowance for the Original Premises) by a fraction
the numerator of which is equal to the number of months remaining in
the term of the Lease after May 1, 1997 (53.5 months) and the
denominator of which is the total number of months in the term of the
Lease (60). Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for all costs of the tenant
finish improvements for the Additional Space in excess of Additional
Allowance provided by Landlord within thirty (30) days of an invoice
from Landlord.
Upon completion of the work in the Additional Space, Tenant
shall execute a letter of understanding as referred to in SECTION 2.03
of the Lease."
3. TENANT'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The undersigned
represents and warrants to Landlord that (i) Tenant is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing in accordance with the laws of the state under
which it was organized; (ii) all action necessary to authorize the execution
of this Amendment has been taken by Tenant; and (iii) the individual executing
and delivering this Amendment on behalf of Tenant has been authorized to do
so, and such execution and delivery shall bind Tenant. Tenant, at Landlord's
request, shall provide Landlord with evidence of such authority.
4. EXAMINATION OF AMENDMENT. Submission of this instrument for
examination or signature to Tenant does not constitute a reservation or
option, and it is not effective until execution by and delivery to both
Landlord and Tenant.
5. DEFINITIONS. Except as otherwise provided herein, the capitalized
terms used in this Amendment shall have the definitions set forth in the
Lease.
41

6. INCORPORATION. This Amendment shall be incorporated into and made
a part of the Lease, and all provisions of the Lease not expressly modified or
amended hereby shall remain in full force and effect.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Amendment to be
executed on the day and year first written above.

responsible for said cost. Lessee shall not cause or permit any Hazardous
Materials (defined below) to be spilled or released in, on, under or about the

monitoring of the Demised Premises, the elements surrounding same, or
neighboring properties, that was caused or materially contributed to by

Lessee, in keeping the Demised Premises in good order, condition
and repair, shall exercise and perform good maintenance practices. Unless stated
otherwise in this Lease, Lessee's obligations shall include restoration,
replacement or renewals where necessary to keep the interior of the Demised

responsibility only to the extent that the HVAC system serves the Demised
Premises.
Lessee further covenants and agrees that at the end of the term,
it will deliver up the Demised Premises broom-clean, free of debris and in as
good order and condition as they are at commencement hereof or may be put to
thereafter, reasonable use and reasonable and ordinary wear and tear excepted.
All of the obligations of Lessee shall include the repair of any damage
occasioned by the installation, maintenance or removal of Lessee's trade
fixtures, furnishings, equipment, as well as the removal of any materials that
are left by Lessee.

or quasi-governmental agency or authority under any police, health, safety,
environmental, fire or other regulation, if said change is a direct result of

a firm which is reasonably satisfactory to lessor. Such contract shall provide
for at least quarterly inspections,

and with written reports to Lessor and Lessee. Lessee is only responsible for
the cost of such service contract to the extent that the HVAC system serves
the Demised Premises.

be done any act or thing on the Demised Premises or elsewhere which will
invalidate any insurance on the Demised Premises or increase the premiums for
insurance thereon. Lessee's current use of the Premises is acceptable.
Lessee may, at its own cost and expense, from time to time during the
term of this Lease, make such alterations, additions and changes, structural
and otherwise, in and to the Demised Premises as it finds necessary or
convenient for its purposes; provided, however: (i) that Lessee shall
indemnify and save harmless Lessor from all expenses, liens, claims of damages
to any person or property arising out of or resulting from the undertaking or
making of such alterations, additions and/or changes; (ii) that such

rights of Lessor, such adverse affect to be determined in Lessor's sole
opinion; an (iii) that written consent shall be first obtained from Lessor
before undertaking the same, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

at the termination of this Lease, or that no restoration will be required. All
trade fixtures, trade apparatus, trade machinery and trade equipment placed on
the Demised Premises at the expense of Lessee shall remain the property of

of this Lease. Copies of all plans and specifications, including as-built

mortgagee, or an insurance trustee, if so required by Lessor and/or Lessor's

at its option, but without obligation so to do, may procure such insurance,

2. Lessor may terminate this Lease as of the date of such
default, in which event: (i) neither Lessee, nor any person claiming under or
through Lessee, shall thereafter be entitled to possession of the Demised
Premises, and Lessee shall immediately thereafter surrender the premises to
Lessor; (ii) Lessor may re-enter the Demised Premises and dispossess Lessee or
any other occupants of the premises by force, summary proceedings, ejectment
or otherwise, and may remove their effects, without prejudice to any other
remedy which Lessor may have for possession or arrearages in rent; and (iii)
notwithstanding the termination of this Lease, Lessor may re-let all or any
part of the Demised Premises for a term different from that which would
otherwise have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease, and for
reasonable rent and on reasonable terms and conditions different from those
contained herein, whereupon Lessee shall be obligated to pay to Lessor as
liquidated damages the difference between the rent provided for herein and
that provided for any Lease covering a subsequent re-letting of the Demised
Premises, for a period which would otherwise have constituted the balance of
the term of this Lease, together with a proportional amount of all of Lessor's
reasonable costs and expenses for preparing the premises for re-letting,
including all repairs, tenant finish improvements, brokers' and attorneys'
fees, and all loss or damage which Lessor may sustain by reason of such
termination, re-entry and re-letting, it being expressly understood and agreed
that the liabilities and remedies specified in clauses A and B above shall
survive the termination of this Lease.
3. Lessor may sue for injunctive relief, or to recover damages
for any loss resulting from the breach.
XVI. WAIVER. It is further mutually covenanted and agreed between the parties
hereto that no waiver of any covenant, agreement, stipulation or condition of
this Lease shall be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of the
same covenant, agreement, stipulation or condition; that the payment by
Lessee, or the receipt by Lessor, of rent with knowledge of the breach by the
other party of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a waiver of such
breach; and further, that all covenants, stipulations, conditions, and
agreements herein contained shall run with the land, and bind and inure to the
benefit of, as the case may require, the heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns of the parties hereto and to grantees of Lessor, as
fully as if such words were written whenever reference to Lessor and Lessee
occur in this Lease, except that no assignment by lessee in violation of the
provisions of this Lease, shall vest any right in the assignee.
XVII. MORTGAGES. Lessor shall have the right to transfer, assign, mortgage and
convey in whole or in part, the Demised Premises, and any and all rights of
Lessor under this Lease, and nothing herein shall be construed as a restriction
upon Lessor so doing. This Lease shall be
53
10
subject and subordinate to any mortgage or other financing arrangement and to
any renewal modification, consolidation, replacement and extension thereof now
or thereafter placed upon or affecting the Demised Premises, or any part
hereof, provided that so long as Lessee is not in default of any of the terms
and conditions hereof, Lessee's rights, privileges and possession hereunder
shall not be disturbed. Although no instrument or act on the part of Lessee
shall be necessary to effectuate such subordination, Lessee will, upon
request, execute and deliver such further instruments subordinating this Lease
to the lien of any such mortgages or other financing arrangements as may be
desired by the mortgagee or other lender. Lessee hereby appoints Lessor its
attorney-in-fact, irrevocably, to execute and deliver any such instrument for
Lessee, should Lessee fail to execute and deliver same within ten (10) days of
any request therefor. In the event of any sale or exchange of the Demised
Premises by Lessor and assignment by Lessor hereof and acceptance by assignee
of all responsibilities of Lessor. Lessor shall be and is hereby entirely free
and relieved of all liability under any and all of its covenants and
obligations contained in or derived from this Lease occurring after the
consummation of such sale or exchange and assignment.
XVIII. CONDEMNATION.
A. If, during the term of this Lease, all of the Demised Premises, or
such a substantial part of the premises so as to render the remaining as the
same may be restored, unusable for the purposes for which the premises were
leased, shall be taken by appropriation for public, or quasi-public use, under
the right of eminent domain, then all of the proceeds of such appropriation
shall be paid to Lessor, and Lessee shall have no claim to any part thereof,
except as set out below, and this Lease shall be canceled as of the date of
such taking, provided, however, Lessee may claim such damages it suffered with
respect to its trade fixtures, personal property and its improvements to the
real property from the condemning authority.
B. If, during the term of this Lease, a part but not all of the
Demised Premises shall be taken by appropriation for public, or quasi-public
use, under the right of eminent domain and this Lease shall not terminate or
be terminated under the provisions of subparagraph XVIII (A) hereof, then this
Lease shall not be canceled, and shall apply to that part of the Demised
Premises not so taken. In such event, all of the proceeds shall be paid to
Lessor, and Lessee shall not be entitled to any part thereof (except for a
reasonable amount for the depreciated value of its improvements), but the
rental for the remaining term and the Required Purchase Price, as defined
below, shall be equitably adjusted.
XIX. LIENS. Lessor shall have a first and best lien, paramount to all others
upon every right and interest of Lessee to and in the Demised Premises and to
and in this Lease, and in and to all improvements which become part of the
real estate constituting the premises, as security for the payment of the
entire amount of rent payable under this Lease, and for the payment of the
entire amount of rent payable under this Lease, and for the payment of all
monies payable under any obligation or engagement of Lessee contained in this
Lease, and as security for the performance and observance of all and singular
the covenants, agreements, conditions and obligations of this Lease to be
performed and observed by Lessee.

its expense, shall cause the Demised Premises to comply with all federal,
state, county, municipal and other governmental laws, statutes, rules, orders,
regulations and ordinances applicable to the Demised Premises, or any part
thereof or the use thereof, whether or not any such statutes, laws, rules,
orders, regulations or ordinances which may hereafter be enacted, involve a
change of policy if said compliance is the direct result of Lessee's
particular use of the Demised Premises. Lessee shall obtain and pay for all
permits and appraisals required for Lessee's occupancy of the Demised
Premises, and shall promptly take all substantial and non-substantial actions
necessary to comply with all statues, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders
and requirements regulating the use by Lessee of the Demised Premises,
including, without limitation, the Occupational Safety and Health Act. All
materials used or kept on or about the Demised Premises shall be
self-contained in governmentally approved containers which shall not be
opened, disturbed or stored on the Demised Premises. Lessee shall not mix,

presence of other environmentally detrimental matter. Without limiting the
foregoing, Lessee shall acquire all applicable permits required for the
Demised Premises regarding stormwater discharges or run-off, including any

at its option, may elect to acquire permits, perform any and all stormwater
discharge elimination plans and monitoring as required by any governmental
authority, and Lessee agrees to reimburse Lessor for same. Lessee will not

the scope or intent of this Lease or affect this Lease.
XXII. MEMORANDUM OF LEASE. In the event either Lessor or Lessee determine to
record this Lease, a short form memorandum of Lease shall be recorded in lieu
of the original Lease. Such short form memorandum shall be executed by both
parties, but shall not in any way vary or revoke the terms of this Lease.
XXIII. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Lessee shall from time to time, upon not less
than ten (10) days prior written request by Lessor, execute, acknowledge and
deliver to Lessor an estoppel certificate, certifying that this Lease is in
full force and effect; the dates to which rents have been paid; and whether
Lessor is in default, and if so, specifying the nature of the default; and
that the Lease is in full force and effect, as modified, and listing
instruments of modification. It is intended that such estoppel certificate may
be relied on by a prospective purchaser of Lessor's interest, or mortgagee or
assignee of any mortgage upon the Demised Premises.
55
12
XXIV. SECURITY DEPOSIT. Concurrently with Lessee's execution hereof, Lessee
has deposited with Lessor the sum of SIX THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED FIFTY Dollars
($6,250.00), the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, as security for the
payment by Lessee of the rent or other charges to be paid and for the faithful
performance by Lessee of all of the terms, conditions and covenants of this
Lease. If at any time during the term of this Lease, Lessee shall be in
default in the performance of any provisions of this Lease, Lessor shall have
the right to use the security deposit, or so much thereof as is necessary, in
payment of rental or other charges in default, reimbursement of any expenses
incurred by Lessor, and in payment of any damages incurred by Lessor by reason
of Lessee's default. If any portion of said deposit is so used or applied,
Lessee shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefore from Lessor,
remit to Lessor a sufficient amount out restore the security deposit to its
original amount.
In the event the security deposit has not been utilized as aforesaid,
the security deposit, or so much thereof as has not been utilized for such
purposes, shall be refunded to Lessee, without interest, upon full performance
of all of the terms of this Lease by Lessee, within ten (10) days of the
termination of this Lease.
Lessor shall have the right to commingle the security deposit with
other funds of Lessor. Lessor shall have the right to deliver the security
deposit to any successor in interest to Lessor's interest in the Demised
Premises. Thereupon, Lessor shall be discharged from further liability with
respect to such security deposit provided assignee assumes all
responsibilities (past and future) of Lessor. If claims of Lessor exceed the
security deposit, Lessee shall remain liable for the balance of such claims.
Lessee may not assign its right to the security deposit in whole or
in part.
XXV. NO COUNTERCLAIM, ABATEMENT, ETC.
There shall be no abatement, deduction or offset whatsoever with
regard to any amounts due from the Lessee to the Lessor under Sections II, III
or XXVIII of this Lease.
XXVI. LIMITATION OF LESSOR'S PERSONAL LIABILITY. Lessee specifically agrees to
look solely to Lessor's interest in the Real Property and the Building for the
recovery of any judgment from Lessor, it being agreed that neither Lessor nor
any of its partners shall ever be personally liable for any such judgment. The
provision contained in the foregoing sentence is not intended to, and shall
not, limit any right that might otherwise have to obtain injunctive relief
against Lessor or Lessor's successors in interest, or any other action not
involving the personal liability of Lessor.
XXVII. HOLDING OVER. In the event of holding over by Lessee after expiration
or termination of this Lease, Lessee shall pay one hundred fifty percent
(150%) the Rent (calculated on the basis of Rent with respect to the month
immediately preceding the month in which expiration or termination occurs) for
the entire holdover period. No holding over by Lessee after the term of this
Lease shall be construed to extend the term of this Lease. In the event of any
unauthorized holding over, Lessee shall also indemnify Lessor against all
claims for damages by any other tenant to whom Lessor may have leased all or
any part of the Demised Premises covered hereby
56
13
effective upon the termination of this Lease. Any holding over with the
consent of Lessor in writing shall thereafter constitute this Lease a lease
from month to month.
XXVIII. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL. Lessee shall have the first right of refusal
to lease the approximately 3,000 square feet of space marked on Exhibit B,
attached hereto and incorporated herein, within twenty one (21) days of
written notice from Lessor. Rental for said approximate 3,000 square feet
shall be the same rental per square foot as Lessee is paying under Section II
or Section III of the Lease, with any applicable increases. This Right of
First Refusal may only be exercised on the ENTIRE approximate 3,000 square
feet of space marked on Exhibit C. At such time if and when said right of
first refusal is exercised, the Demised Premises shall be defined in Section I
of the Lease as 13,000 square feet of space.
XXIX. MISCELLANEOUS.
A. If Lessor shall fail to pay any installment of Rent within five
(5) days after the date the same becomes due and payable, then Lessee shall
also pay to Lessor a late payment service charge of five percent (5%) of the
payment so overdue, in addition to and not in limitation of, any other remedy
or right of Lessor herein.
B. If any provision of this Lease or the application thereof to any
person or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the
remainder of this Lease, or the application of such provision to persons or
circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable,
shall not be affected thereby, and each provision of this Lease shall be valid
and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
C. This Lease shall be construed and interpreted under the laws of
the State of Ohio.
D. PARKING. Lessee shall be entitled to the use of 40 parking spaces
on site as identified as on the attached Exhibit C, incorporated herein.

such easements, rights and dedications as Lessor deems necessary and
desirable, and to cause the recordation of plats and restrictions, so long as
such easements, rights, dedications and restrictions do not unreasonably
interfere with the use of the Demised Premises by Lessee. Lessee shall sign
any of the aforementioned documents upon request of Lessor.

Corporate Profile
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In today's dynamic healthcare environment, hospitals and integrated delivery
systems are continually struggling to increase the quality and level of care
while reducing their overall costs. However, many healthcare executives claim
that the lack of ready access to health information by those who need it remains
the foremost hurdle to achieving these goals.
LanVision was founded in 1989 with the sole purpose of helping hospitals and
integrated healthcare delivery systems solve their information access and
document management problems through advanced document imaging and workflow
technologies.
LanVision is now a leading provider of healthcare information access systems
that enable hospitals and integrated healthcare networks to capture, manage,
store and access vast amounts of clinical and financial patient information
across the enterprise. Unlike other systems that have limited usage at the point
of patient care, LanVision's systems are used intensively by a larger number and
variety of users than any other systems available today. As a result,
LanVision's clients, some of the largest and most respected healthcare provider
systems in the country, are able to manage and deliver information more
effectively than their competitors.
LanVision has established itself as a national leader in information systems
integration. LanVision's professional staff members are committed to quality and
have the necessary strategic and technical expertise to develop and deliver the
information systems that today's healthcare providers need.

LETTER TO STOCKHOLDERS
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Stockholder:
I am pleased to present our first Annual Report as a public company. During
1996, we completed our initial public offering, through the issuance of
2,912,500 shares of common stock with net proceeds of approximately $34 million.
This capital gives us the necessary resources to enable LanVision to become a
market leader in providing document imaging and workflow applications to the
healthcare industry.
For the year ended January 31, 1997 (fiscal 1996), LanVision's annual
revenues were approximately $10 million, a 105% increase over fiscal 1995.
During the year, we significantly expanded our staff from 28 at January 31,
1996, to 94 at January 31, 1997. This expansion, in all areas of operations,
was planned to ensure LanVision captures a leading share of our market. We
estimate the healthcare document imaging and workflow market is only 5% to 10%
penetrated, and industry analysts expect the electronic medical record market
to grow at a 40% to 70% compound growth rate over the next five years.
Notwithstanding our expansion and the market growth potential, healthcare
providers responded more slowly than we expected in 1996, and sales cycles have
been longer than planned. This has adversely affected our revenues, which were
64% of our fiscal 1996 internal plan. Hospitals and medical facilities have been
cautious as they attempt to understand all the new technological tools at their
disposal, differentiate among the available solutions and prioritize their
needs. We believe the market demand is starting to accelerate as hospitals and
integrated delivery networks begin to better appreciate the significant cost
savings that can be achieved with LanVision's document imaging and workflow
applications.
Fiscal 1996 was a year of tremendous investment by LanVision in people,
marketing, training, equipment and facilities. The combination of our shortfall
in anticipated revenues and the expansion of our organization resulted in a
fiscal 1996 net loss of approximately $4.7 million. Although the loss was
significant, management believes the investment made in 1996 will yield
important long term benefits, creating a firm foundation to take advantage of
projected market demand.
In late 1996 and the first half of 1997, LanVision has and will introduce more
software products than at any other time in LanVision's history. In 1996, our
On-Line Chart Completion product was installed in two beta sites, and general
release is expected in the first half of 1997. Existing and prospective
customers are extremely excited about this product and its cost savings
potential. In 1996, LanVision also released MultiView, an advanced viewer that
allows users to easily access electronic and image-based healthcare information
longitudinally across all document types or patient encounters contained in the
patient's lifetime medical record. It has also received excellent reviews.
In the first half of 1997, LanVision will release OmniVision, a 32 bit image and
workflow-enabling application that allows users of third-party information
systems to seamlessly access document images and other multimedia information.
Historically, clinicians and administrative staff have not had access to this
data through their existing systems, and accordingly, have not had complete
electronic access to all the information contained in the patient's medical
record. We believe that hospitals and clinics using OmniVision will rapidly
expand the use of our other document imaging and workflow products. Currently,
67
4
we are image-enabling the 3M Healthcare Enterprise Management System, Oacis,
PHAMIS, MasterChart and AutoCyte clinical information systems. We will also
release Correspondence, a ChartVision module that allows medical facilities to
quickly access electronically stored documents and distribute them to third
parties. Also in 1997, we intend to release AccountVision version 2.0, our
patient accounting product. This enhanced product will share a common database
with our flagship medical record product, ChartVision, and provide major cost
saving benefits to our customers. In the second half of 1997, we will offer
WebView, our Internet viewer that will significantly expand the accessibility
of medical records via the Internet.
The quality of our products and the strength of our organization is attracting
some of the strongest strategic marketing partners in the healthcare industry
including: Lanier Healthcare Systems; 3M Health Information Systems; Daou
Systems, Inc.; and Crowe, Chizek and Company LLP. Most recently, LanVision and
Lanier Healthcare Systems have concluded an agreement in principle for an
important three year extension to our relationship. Under the new enhanced
relationship, both companies will be investing significant resources in the
distribution of LanVision products through the extensive Lanier sales
organization. Our relationships are built upon mutual trust and respect, and
LanVision intends to further expand its third-party distribution channels both
domestically and internationally.
We are building a first class sales and marketing organization. This group has
grown from 8 at January 31, 1996, to 30 at January 31, 1997. The sales and
marketing group has overcome a steep learning curve in 1996, and we expect to
see the benefits in 1997. Throughout 1996, we ran a series of customer
testimonial ads in key healthcare publications, participated in leading industry
trade shows, and implemented a telemarketing program. Our public profile, new
partners, advertising, trade show participation and telemarketing have expanded
our presence tremendously in the market.
During 1996, Stanford Health Services, affiliated with Stanford University,
purchased our OmniVision product to image-enable their Oacis clinical data
repository across their healthcare enterprise. In addition, new agreements were
signed with The Toledo Hospital and Flower Hospital of Toledo, Ohio, which are
part of the ProMedica Health System, and through Lanier, we added St. Francis
Medical Center of Hartford, Connecticut. We are pleased to have them join the
most prestigious customer base in the industry. We are grateful to each of our
customers and their employees for their trust and confidence in LanVision. We
intend to make each of them very successful in and through the use of our
systems, and their success should bring us future success.
LanVision has been through a significant transition in 1996, and we have
experienced some growing pains trying to assimilate our many new employees.
However, we have accomplished very much in a short period of time. We are
confident that we have invested wisely in the talent and technology necessary to
achieve revenue growth in the future. We will continue to expand distribution,
support and development, in 1997, at a pace commensurate with market growth
opportunities.
We are thankful for your confidence, and look forward to a successful 1997.
Sincerely,
/s/ J. Brian Patsy

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OVERVIEW
LanVision is a leading provider of healthcare information access systems that
enable hospitals and integrated healthcare networks to capture, manage, store,
retrieve and process vast amounts of clinical and financial patient information.
The Company's systems deliver on-line enterprise-wide access to fully-updated
patient information which historically was maintained on a variety of media,
including paper, magnetic disk, optical disk, x-ray film, video, audio and
microfilm. LanVision's systems, which incorporate data management, document
imaging and workflow technologies, consolidate patient information into a single
repository and provide fast and efficient access to patient information from
universal workstations located throughout the enterprise, including the point of
patient care. The systems are specifically designed to meet the needs of
physicians and other medical and administrative personnel and can accommodate
multiple users requiring simultaneous access to patient information, thereby
eliminating file contention. By providing access to all forms of patient
information, the Company believes that its healthcare information access systems
are essential components of the computer-based patient record.
The Company's revenues are derived from the licensing and sale of systems
comprising LanVision and third-party software and hardware components, and from
professional services, maintenance and support services. These services include
implementation and training, project management and custom software development
and currently are provided only to the Company's customers with installed
systems or who are in the process of installing systems. Revenues from
professional services, maintenance and support services typically are expected
to increase as the number of installed systems increase, although the margins on
these revenues are expected to fluctuate based upon the negotiated terms of the
agreement with each customer and the Company's ability to fully utilize its
professional services, maintenance and support services staff. The highest
margin is on proprietary LanVision software and the lowest margin is on
third-party hardware. Systems sales to any given customer may include differing
configurations of software and hardware, resulting in varying margins among
contracts.
Sales are made by the Company's direct sales force, which was increased
substantially during 1996, and through healthcare information systems
distribution partners. During 1996, the Company was working with one major
distribution partner, Lanier Healthcare Systems. However, the Company has
entered into additional agreements in 1997 and expects both the number of
partners and the resulting revenues to increase in the future.
The decision by a healthcare provider to replace, substantially modify or
upgrade its information systems is a strategic decision and often involves a
large capital commitment requiring an extended approval process. Throughout
1996, the Company experienced extended sales cycles which adversely affected
revenues. It is common for sales cycles to take six to eighteen months from
initial contact to the execution of an agreement. As a result, the sales cycles
can cause significant variations in quarter to quarter results. These agreements
cover the entire implementation of the system and specify the implementation
schedule, which typically takes place in one or more phases. The agreements
generally provide for the licensing of the Company's proprietary software and
third-party software with a one-time perpetual license fee that is adjusted
depending on the number of workstations using the software. Third-party hardware
is usually sold outright, with a one-time fee charged for installation and
training. Site-specific customization, interfaces with existing customer systems
and other consulting services are sold on a fixed fee or a time and materials
basis.
Generally, revenue from systems sales is recognized when a purchase agreement is
signed and products are shipped. Revenue recognition related to routine
installation and integration and other insignificant obligations is deferred
until the work is performed. If an agreement requires the Company to perform
services and modifications that are deemed significant to system acceptance,
revenue is recorded either on the percentage-of-completion
73
10
method or revenue related to the delivered hardware and software components is
deferred until such obligations are deemed insignificant, depending on the
contractual terms. Revenue from consulting, training and services is
recognized as the services are performed. Revenue from short-term support and
maintenance agreements is recognized ratably over the term of the agreements.
Billings to customers recorded prior to the recognition of the revenue are
classified as deferred revenues. Revenue recognized prior to progress billings
to customers is recorded as unbilled receivables.

(1) Because a significant percentage of the Company's operating costs are
expensed as incurred, a variation in the timing of systems sales and
installations and the resulting revenue recognition can cause
significant variations in operating results. As a result, period to
period comparisons may not be meaningful with respect to the past
operations of the Company nor are they necessarily indicative of the
future operations of the Company. The data in the table is presented
solely for the purpose of reflecting the relationship of various
operating elements to revenues for the periods indicated.
(2) All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year of the
Company commencing on February 1 of that calendar year and ending on
January 31 of the following year.

COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEAR 1996 WITH 1995
REVENUES. Total revenues in fiscal year 1996 were $10,310,052 compared with
revenues of $5,018,521 in fiscal year 1995, an increase of $5,291,531, or 105%.
Revenues from systems sales in fiscal 1996 were $6,756,226, an increase of
$3,399,066, or 101%, over systems sales in fiscal 1995. The increase in systems
sales is primarily
74
11
attributable to expansion of systems at customers existing prior to January
31, 1996, and two new customers. Revenues from service, maintenance and
support in fiscal 1996 were $3,553,826, an increase of $1,892,465, or 114%,
over fiscal 1995. Maintenance revenues in fiscal 1996 were $1,185,665, an
increase of $279,304, or 31%, over maintenance revenues in fiscal 1995. The
increase in maintenance revenues in fiscal 1996 is primarily due to billings
on prior installations subsequent to the warranty period. Professional
services revenue in fiscal 1996 was $2,368,161, an increase of $1,613,161, or
214%, over the professional services revenue in fiscal 1995. Substantially all
of the increase came from the Company's fiscal 1995 client base as previously
signed agreements were implemented in fiscal 1996. The two new agreements
signed in fiscal 1996, contributed $1,423,652, or 27%, of the increase in
total revenues in fiscal 1996, as they were signed and implementation began in
the last half of the year; the remaining 73% of the increase came from
implementation of original phases, or expansion of systems at existing
clients. In fiscal 1996, three customers accounted for 49% of the Company's
total revenues. In fiscal 1995, three customers accounted for 70% of the
Company's total revenues.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales consists of cost of systems sales and cost of
service, maintenance and support. Cost of systems sales includes amortization of
capitalized software costs, royalties and the cost of third-party software and
hardware. Cost of systems sales as a percentage of systems sales will vary from
period to period depending on the hardware and software configuration of the
systems sold. Cost of service, maintenance and support includes salaries and
benefits for support and professional services personnel and the cost of
third-party maintenance contracts. The cost of systems sales increased to 61.8%
from 55.9% compared with the prior fiscal year due to the mix of fewer new
customers with traditionally higher software revenues, at higher margins, and
the increase in add-on hardware sales to existing customers at lower margins.
The cost of service, maintenance and support increased to 108.9% from 82.8%, as
the Company increased the support and professional services staff in
anticipation of expanded revenue from new customers. The Company's shortfall in
obtaining new customers contributed to higher professional service costs as a
percentage of revenues because the staff was unable to be fully utilized on
billable projects, resulting in more non-billable professional service hours. In
addition, the professional services staff was used on various internal
consulting projects and performed several special projects for customers on a
complimentary basis or at discounted rates. The new professional services staff
required training and product orientation, leaving less time available for
billable hours. Anticipated future increases in service, maintenance and support
revenues are not expected to require a proportionate increase in expenses.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, traveling and living
expenses and expenses such as advertising, trade shows, brochures, etc. for
selling and marketing activities. In fiscal 1996, selling, general and
administrative expenses were $6,647,470 compared with $1,477,401 in fiscal 1995.
The increase in fiscal 1996 is primarily attributable to: the increase in sales
and marketing personnel from eight to thirty; an increase in marketing and sales
activities including advertising, trade shows, telemarketing, brochures, etc.;
and the increase in personnel from five to twenty-one in the finance, management
information systems, quality assurance and administrative departments, necessary
to support the expanded, and future anticipated expansion of revenues. In
addition, the increase in personnel required increased office space and the
related facility costs. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company
expensed $250,000 related to the termination of a West Coast agent. This market
is now being covered by the Company's direct sales force and its third-party
distributors. The Company intends to continue to expand its direct sales
operations especially in geographic areas in which the Company is currently not
present and increase the pre-sales support of its reseller partners. However,
the expansion will be at a slower pace than in 1996 and will be monitored along
with the Company's assessment of market growth opportunities.
PRODUCT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Product research and development expenses in
fiscal 1996 were $1,580,089, compared with $594,037 in fiscal 1995. The fiscal
1996 increase is primarily attributable to: increased research and development
staffing from five to seventeen; increased use of outside contractors; and
associated increased overhead costs, as expanded efforts were undertaken to
develop new products and enhancements to existing products. The Company intends
to continue to accelerate product research and development in 1997. The Company
capitalized $170,000 and $123,307 in product research and development costs in
fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively.
75
12
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET. Other income in fiscal 1996 consisted of interest
on investment securities, net of interest expense on indebtedness outstanding
prior to the Company's initial public offering.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. The Company is in a tax loss carryforward position,
and is unable to recognize a tax benefit for losses because the realization of a
tax benefit for such losses is not assured. Tax loss carryforward approximates
$6,400,000.
NET LOSS. The Company's net loss in fiscal 1996 was $4,668,540, compared with a
net loss in fiscal 1995 of $326,229. Fiscal 1996 net loss per share was $.56,
compared with a net loss per share in fiscal 1995 of $.05.
Since commencing operations in 1989, the Company has, from time to time,
incurred operating losses. Although the Company achieved profitability in fiscal
years 1992 and 1993, the Company incurred a net loss in fiscal years 1994, 1995
and 1996. Based upon the expenses associated with current and planned staffing
levels, profitability is dependent upon increasing revenues. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to achieve consistent profitability on a
quarterly or annual basis nor be able to sustain or increase its revenue growth
in future periods. Management believes historical operating results are not
indicative of the future performance of the Company in the long-term.
At January 31, 1997, the Company has master agreements, which if fully
performed, would generate future revenues of approximately $6,600,000. The
products and services related to these agreements are expected to be delivered
over the next two to three years. However, because implementations are dependent
upon the customer's schedule, the Company is unable to predict accurately the
amount of revenues in future periods.
PAGE 10
COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEAR 1995 WITH 1994
REVENUES. Total revenues in fiscal year 1995 were $5,018,521, an increase of
$2,606,722, or 108%, over total revenues in fiscal year 1994. Revenues from
systems sales in fiscal 1995 were $3,357,160, an increase of $1,746,475, or
108%, over systems sales in fiscal 1994. The increase in systems sales is
primarily attributable to four new customers and expansion of systems at
existing installations. Revenues from service, maintenance and support in fiscal
1995 were $1,661,361, an increase of $860,247, or 107%, over fiscal 1994.
Maintenance revenues in fiscal 1995 were $906,361, an increase of $313,361, or
53%, over maintenance revenues in fiscal 1994. The increase in maintenance
revenues in fiscal 1995 is primarily due to revenue on installations made during
fiscal 1994. Professional services revenues in fiscal 1995 were $755,000, an
increase of $547,000, or 163%, over the professional services revenues in fiscal
1994. Approximately $363,000 of the increase in professional services revenues
related to four new customers in fiscal 1995, and the remaining increase of
$184,000 is due to an increase in services to customers obtained in and prior to
fiscal 1994. To date, demand for professional services has been more intensive
during the early stages of each phase of system implementation and begins to
decline as users become more familiar with the systems. In fiscal 1995, three
customers accounted for 70% of the Company's total revenues. In fiscal 1994, two
of these customers and one other customer accounted for 91% of the Company's
total revenues. Revenues in fiscal 1994 were adversely affected by reduced
marketing efforts while the Company was creating a new version of ChartVision
and by the debate over healthcare reform.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales consists of cost of systems sales and cost of
service, maintenance and support. Cost of systems sales includes amortization of
capitalized software costs, royalties and the cost of third-party software and
hardware. Cost of systems sales as a percentage of systems sales will vary from
period to period depending on the hardware and software configuration of the
systems sold. Cost of service, maintenance and support includes salaries and
benefits for support and professional services personnel and the cost of
third-party maintenance contracts.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling, general and administrative
expenses consisted primarily of salaries, commissions and benefits related to
the Company's sales, marketing and administrative personnel. Selling, general
and administrative expenses in fiscal 1995 were $1,477,401, an increase of
$854,746, or 137%, over fiscal
76
13
1994. This increase is primarily attributable to an average increase in
personnel of five people, increased marketing activity and increased
commissions and bonuses based upon revenues.
PRODUCT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Product research and development expenditures
consisted primarily of salaries and related personnel benefits and the allocable
portion of overhead costs. Product research and development expenditures were
relatively consistent between fiscal years 1995 and 1994. The majority of
product research and development expenses in fiscal year 1995 relate to the
continued development of ChartVision 3.0 and On-Line Chart Completion. The
Company capitalized $123,307 and $12,934 of product research and development
costs in 1995 and 1994, respectively.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES. In fiscal year 1994, the Company recorded a tax
benefit of $125,833, representing the extent to which it could utilize or
receive a benefit for such losses. In fiscal 1995, no tax benefit has been
provided because realization of a tax benefit for such losses is not assured.
NET LOSS. Net operating results in fiscal 1995 improved by $245,831 compared
with fiscal 1994. The Company's net loss in fiscal 1995 was $326,229, compared
with a $572,060 loss in fiscal 1994. Net loss per share for fiscal 1995 was
$.05, compared with a $.09 loss per share in fiscal 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception in 1989, LanVision has funded its operations, working
capital needs and capital expenditures primarily from a combination of cash
generated by revenues from operations, borrowings, a private placement of
convertible redeemable preferred stock and an initial public offering which
raised approximately $34,000,000, net of the underwriting discount and expenses,
through the issuance of 2,912,500 shares of common stock on April 18, 1996.
The Company's customers typically have been well-established hospitals or
medical facilities with good credit histories, and payments have been received
within normal time frames for the industry. Agreements with customers often
involve significant amounts, and contract terms typically require customers to
make progress payments. In fiscal 1996, progress billings to customers have
increased as system implementation has increased. Progress billings recorded
prior to the recognition of revenue have been classified as deferred revenues.
At January 31, 1997, accounts and unbilled receivables were $1,179,137 greater
than accounts and unbilled receivables at January 31, 1996. This increase is
primarily due to increased revenues.
The Company has no significant obligations for capital resources, other than
noncancelable operating leases in the total amount of $2,227,876, payable over
the next five years. However, the Company plans to continue to increase its
staff during fiscal 1997 to meet anticipated growth, which will require
additional office space, furniture and equipment, the total cost of which has
not yet been determined.
At January 31, 1997, the Company had cash and investments of $26,591,772.
Investments consist primarily of U.S. Government obligations with maturities
ranging from one month to three years.
In March, 1997, the Company's Board of Directors authorized management, at its
discretion, to repurchase shares of the Company's common stock of up to
$1,000,000 in value on the open market.
The Company believes that the existing cash balances and investment securities
and revenue from operations, will be sufficient to meet its liquidity and
capital spending requirements for the foreseeable future. To date, inflation has
not had a material impact on the Company's revenues or income.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LanVision Systems, Inc. is responsible for the preparation, integrity
and fair presentation of its published financial statements. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, include amounts based on
judgments and estimates made by management. Management also prepared the other
information included in this Annual Report and is responsible for its accuracy
and consistency with the consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements have been audited by the
independent accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, which was given unrestricted
access to all financial records and related data, including minutes of all
meetings of stockholders, the Board of Directors and committees of the Board.
The Company believes that all representations made to the independent auditors
during their audit were accurate and appropriate. Based on their audit of the
consolidated financial statements, Ernst & Young LLP has issued their audit
report, which appears below.
In meeting its responsibility for the integrity of the financial
statements, management relies on a system of internal controls. This system is
designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
LanVision Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is a provider of healthcare information
access systems that enable hospitals and integrated healthcare delivery systems
in the United States to capture, manage, store, retrieve and process vast
amounts of clinical and financial patient information.
FISCAL YEAR
All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year of the Company
commencing February 1 in that calendar year and ending on January 31 of the
following year.
CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LanVision
Systems, Inc. and its Subsidiary, LanVision, Inc. All significant intercompany
transactions are eliminated.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is derived from the licensing and sale of systems comprising internally
developed software, third-party software and hardware. The Company complements
its products by offering support, maintenance and professional services. The
Company's revenue recognition policies conform to Statement of Position 91-1,
Software Revenue Recognition. Generally, revenue from software license fees and
hardware sales is recognized when a purchase agreement is signed pursuant to a
master agreement and products are shipped. Revenue related to routine
installation and integration and other insignificant obligations is deferred
until the work is performed. If a contract requires the Company to perform
services and modifications that are deemed significant to system acceptance,
revenue is recorded either on the percentage-of-completion method or revenue
related to the delivered hardware and software components is deferred until such
obligations are deemed insignificant, depending on the contractual terms.
Revenue from consulting, education and services is recognized as the services
are performed. Revenue from short-term support and maintenance agreements is
recognized ratably over the term of the agreements. Billings to customers
recorded prior to the recognition of revenue are classified as deferred
revenues. Revenue recognized prior to progress billings to customers is recorded
as unbilled receivables.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits, overnight repurchase
agreements, money market accounts and highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less. For purpose of the Consolidated Statements
of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
82
19
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Company accounts for its investment securities under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The Company's investment securities
are classified under Statement No. 115 as "available-for-sale," and accordingly,
are carried at fair market value. Unrealized net gains are included as a
component of stockholders' equity, net of income taxes, until realized. Interest
earned is included in other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of
Operations.
CONCENTRATIONS
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of
credit risk, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 105,
Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet
Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk, consist
primarily of investment securities and accounts receivable. The Company's
investment securities consist primarily of U.S. Government obligations. The
Company's accounts receivable are concentrated in the healthcare industry.
However, the credit risk is limited due to the geographic dispersion and number
of customers.
PAGE 16
To date, the Company has relied on a limited number of customers for a
substantial portion of its total revenues. The Company expects that a
significant portion of its future revenues will continue to be generated by a
limited number of customers. The failure to obtain new customers, the loss of
existing customers or reduction in revenues from existing customers could
materially adversely affect the Company's operating results (see Note 9).
The Company currently buys all of its hardware and some major software
components of its healthcare information access systems from third-party
vendors. Although there are a limited number of vendors capable of supplying
these components, management believes that other suppliers could provide similar
components on comparable terms. A change in suppliers, however, could cause a
delay in system implementations and a possible loss of revenues, which would
adversely affect operating results.
OTHER CURRENT ASSETS
Other current assets at January 31, 1997 are primarily prepaid insurance, and
prepaid expenses related to future revenues. At January 31, 1996, other current
assets consisted primarily of costs related to the initial public offering which
were offset against the proceeds from the stock offering.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight line, half year convention method, over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
Computer equipment and software 3 years
Office equipment 5 years
Office furniture and fixtures 7 years
Leasehold improvements Life of lease
Depreciation expense for 1996, 1995 and 1994 was $373,452, $92,479 and $90,375,
respectively.
CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Software to
be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed. Costs associated with the planning and
designing phase of software development, including coding and testing activities
necessary to establish technological feasibility are classified as product
research and development and are expensed as incurred.
83
20
Once technological feasibility has been determined, additional costs incurred
in development, including coding, testing and product quality assurance, are
capitalized and subsequently reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net
realizable value. The Company capitalized $170,000, $123,307 and $12,934 in
1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. Research and development expense was
$1,580,089, $594,037 and $614,167 in 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Amortization is provided on a product-by-product basis over the estimated
economic life of the software, not to exceed three years, using the
straight-line method. Amortization commences when a product is available for
general release to customers. Unamortized capitalized costs determined to be in
excess of the net realizable value of a product are expensed at the date of such
determination. Amortization expense was $78,000, $60,218 and $125,636 in 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively.
ACCRUED OTHER EXPENSES
Accrued other expenses at January 31, 1997 includes: a warranty reserve of
$164,000; an accrued termination fee to an agent of $250,000; and accrued
royalties, franchise taxes and professional fees.
INCOME TAXES
The provisions for income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the
asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled.
PAGE 17
STOCK OPTIONS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, was issued in October, 1995, and is effective for fiscal year
1996. The Statement establishes a fair value method of financial accounting and
reporting for stock-based compensation plans. The Company has elected to
continue to account for stock options under the intrinsic value method
prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees, and, accordingly, has adopted the disclosure only
provisions of Statement 123.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
The net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number
of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during each period
using the treasury stock method. Common share equivalents recognize the
potential dilutive effects of the conversion of the convertible redeemable
preferred stock to common stock and outstanding options to acquire common stock.
In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Staff Accounting
Bulletin Number 83, the weighted average number of shares used in the
computation of the net loss per common share for fiscal years 1995 and 1994, was
calculated assuming all common share equivalents issued at prices below the
initial public offering price, during a one year period before the filing of the
initial public offering, were outstanding, even though the effect was
antidilutive. Also, the computation of common and common equivalent shares
includes the 1,496,000 shares of common stock issued upon the automatic
conversion of the convertible redeemable preferred stock. Accordingly, the
weighted average shares outstanding for fiscal years 1995 and 1994 is calculated
at 6,190,325 shares.
84
21
The loss per common share calculation, in fiscal 1996, excludes the effect of
the common share equivalents as the inclusion thereof would be antidilutive.
2. INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investment securities at January 31, 1997 include the following:
Market Cost Unrealized
Value Basis Net Gains
-------------- --------------- ---------------
Money Market Funds $ 554,202 $ 554,202 $ -

============== =============== ===============
Total investment securities $ 25,927,549 $ 25,846,943 $ 80,606
============== =============== ===============
The fair values of investment securities are based on the quoted market prices
at the reporting date for those investments. The estimated fair value of
investment securities by contractual maturity at January 31, 1997 is as follows:
$16,407,270 in 1997, $6,708,466 in 1998, and $2,811,813 in 1999.
3. REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT COMMITMENT
During 1996, 1995, and 1994, the Company maintained a revolving line of credit
with a bank. The outstanding loans under the agreement bore interest at the
bank's prime rate of interest plus 3/4%. On February 6, 1996, the Company
entered into a new revolving loan with an initial loan facility of $1,400,000.
Beginning in July, 1996, the maximum amount available under the loan facility
was reduced by $100,000 per month until the line of credit expired on February
9, 1997. The loan was secured by all business assets of the Company including
account and contract receivables, inventory, equipment, furniture, fixtures and
general intangibles. The loan contained the joint and several guaranties of the
two largest stockholders of the Company. Advances under the line of credit were
limited to 75% of accounts receivable due less than 90 days from invoice.
4. DEFERRED COMPENSATION
The Company had a deferred compensation plan that provided for additional
compensation to key employees based on the performance of the Company. The
Company accrued $48,000 at January 31, 1996 for this liability. In February,
1996, a stock option was granted to an employee to purchase 137,937 common
shares at $10.40 per share. Simultaneous with the granting of this option, the
Company's liability under this deferred compensation plan was canceled and the
deferred compensation plan was canceled.
5. OPERATING LEASES
The Company rents office space and equipment under noncancelable operating
leases which expire in 2001. Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable
operating leases for the next five fiscal years are as follows: 1997:
$524,261; 1998: $520,860; 1999: $485,546; 2000: $444,073; 2001: $253,136. Rent
expense was $252,383, $60,441 and $39,890 for fiscal years 1996, 1995 and
1994, respectively.

7. CONVERTIBLE REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
In December, 1994, the Company sold 8,500 shares of Convertible Redeemable
Preferred Stock for $850,000. The shares were converted into 1,496,000 shares of
common stock immediately prior to the initial public offering.
8. RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has established a 401(k) retirement plan which covers substantially
all employees. Company contributions to the plan may be made at the discretion
of the Board of Directors. No Company contributions have been made to the plan.
9. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
During fiscal 1996, three customers accounted for 21%, 17% and 11% of total
revenues. During fiscal 1995, three customers accounted for 35%, 19% and 16% of
total revenues. During fiscal year 1994, three customers accounted for 37%, 35%
and 19% of total revenues. At January 31, 1997, 47% of the Company's accounts
receivables are due from three customers.
10. STOCK OPTIONS
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, in
accounting for its stock options because, as discussed below, the alternative
fair value method of accounting provided for under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires
use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing stock
options. Accordingly, the Company adopted the disclosure only provisions of
Statement 123. All of the Company's stock options have been issued with an
exercise price equal to the estimated fair market value of the underlying stock
at the date of grant. Accordingly, under Opinion 25, no compensation expense is
recognized.
The Company's Employee Stock Option Plan authorizes the grant of options to
employees for up to 825,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The options
granted have terms of ten years or less and generally vest and become fully
exercisable ratably over three years of continuous employment from the date of
grant, except with respect to 71,775 options which were granted in fiscal 1995,
and became fully vested and exercisable on December 1, 1996. At January 31,
1997, options to purchase 521,050 shares of the Company's common stock have been
granted under the Plan.
The Company's Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan authorizes the grant of
options for up to 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock. All options
granted have terms of ten years or less and vest and become fully exercisable
ratably over four years of continuous service as a Director from the date of
grant. Options for 5,000 shares have been granted under this plan to one
Director, none of which are excercisable or vested. In addition, non-qualified
stock options to purchase 5,000 shares were granted to the same Director and
vest ratably over two years.
The Company also issued non-qualified stock options to purchase 119,823 shares
of the Company's common stock to two employees prior to the initial public
offering of the Company's common stock. Of the total, 89,760 were granted in
fiscal 1995, with a term of ten years and vest ratably over three years,
commencing two years from the date of grant, and have an exercise price of $1.00
per share. The remaining 30,063 options were granted in 1990, with a term of
approximately eleven years and became exercisable in 1991 with an aggregate
price of $1.00.

Pro forma information regarding the net loss and net loss per common share is
required by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had
accounted for its stock options under the fair value method of that Statement.
The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions for fiscal 1996 and 1995: risk-free interest rates of 6.3%; a
dividend yield of zero percent; a volatility factor of the expected market price
of the Company's common stock of .827 and a weighted average expected life of
the options of five years.
The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the
fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully
transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly
subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because
the Company's stock options have characteristics significantly different from
those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions
can materially affect the fair value estimate, in the Company's opinion, the
existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair
value of its stock options.
PAGE 20
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options
is amortized to expense over the options' average vesting period. The Company's
pro forma information is as follows:
