Item 1.   Business
 
General
 
LanVision Systems, Inc. (LanVisiontm or the Company) is a healthcare information technology company doing business as “Streamline Health”tm, which is focused on developing and licensing proprietary software solutions that improve document-centric information flows and complement and enhance existing transaction-centric hospital healthcare information systems. The Company’s workflow and document management solutions bridge the gap between current, predominantly paper-based processes and transaction-based healthcare information systems by 1) electronically capturing document-centric information from disparate sources, 2) electronically directing that information through vital business processes, and 3) providing access to the information to authenticated users (such as physicians, nurses, administrative and financial personnel and payers) across the continuum of care. LanVision’s systems are designed for enterprise wide deployment to seamlessly connect disparate departmental systems, or silos of independent technologies which create Friction Pointstm, in a common interoperable document management workflow solution.
 
The Company’s workflow-based products and services offer solutions to specific healthcare business processes within the revenue cycle, such as remote coding, abstracting and chart completion, remote physician order processing, pre-admission registration scanning, insurance verification, denial management, secondary billing services, explanation of benefits processing, release of information processing and other departmental workflow processes.
 
LanVision’s products and services also create an integrated document-centric repository of historical health information that is complementary to, and can be seamlessly “bolted on” to existing transaction-centric clinical, financial and management information systems, allowing healthcare providers to aggressively move toward fully Electronic Medical Record (EMR) processes while improving service levels and convenience for all stakeholders. These integrated systems allow providers and administrators to dramatically improve the availability of patient information while decreasing direct costs associated with document retrieval, work-in-process, chart completion, document retention and archiving.
 
LanVision’s software solutions can be provided on a subscription basis via remote application-hosting services or licensed and installed locally. LanVision provides ASPeNsm, Application Service Provider-based remote hosting

services to, The University Hospital, a member of the Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, and Children’s Medical Center of Columbus, OH, among others. In addition, LanVision has licensed its workflow and document management solutions, which are installed at leading healthcare providers including Stanford Hospital and Clinics, the Albert Einstein Healthcare Network, Beth Israel Medical Centers, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Medical University Hospital Authority of South Carolina, and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, among others.
 
LanVision’s applications allow authenticated users, such as physicians, nurses, administrative and financial personnel, and payers with access to patient healthcare information that exists in disparate systems across the continuum of care and improve operational efficiencies through business process re-engineering and automating labor-intensive and demanding paper environments. LanVision’s applications and services are complementary to existing clinical and financial systems, and use document imaging and advanced workflow tools to ensure users can electronically access both “structured” (transaction-centric) and “unstructured” (document-centric) patient data and all the various forms of clinical and financial healthcare information from a single permanent and secure repository, including clinician’s handwritten notes, laboratory reports, photographs, insurance cards, etc.
 
LanVision’s workflow solutions offer value to all of the constituents in the healthcare delivery process by enabling them to simultaneously access and utilize LanVision’s advanced technological workflow applications to process information, on a real-time basis from virtually any location, including the Physician’s desktop, using Web-based technology. LanVision’s solutions integrate its own proprietary imaging platform, application workflow modules and image and web-enabling tools that allow for the seamless merger of “back office” functionality with existing Clinical and Financial Information Systems at the desktop.
 
LanVision offers its own document imaging/management infrastructure (Foundation Suite) that is built for high volume transaction processing and is specifically designed for the healthcare industry. In addition to providing access to information not previously available at the desktop, LanVision’s applications fulfill the administrative and regulatory needs of the Medical Records, Patient Financial Services and other hospital departments. Furthermore, these systems have been specifically designed to integrate with any Clinical Information System. For example, LanVision has integrated its products with selected systems from Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. (Siemens), Cerner Corporation, and IDX Information Systems Corporation (IDX) applications, thus enabling customers to use our solutions without the expense of replacing entire software systems to gain the software functionality. By offering electronic access to all the patient information components of the medical record, this integration completes one of the most difficult tasks necessary to provide a true Electronic Medical Record. LanVision’s systems deliver on-line enterprisewide access to fully updated patient information, which historically was maintained on a variety of media, including paper, magnetic disk, optical disk, and microfilm.
 
LanVision operates in one segment as a provider of health information technology solutions that streamline healthcare information flows within a healthcare facility. The financial information required by Items 101(b) of Regulation S-K is contained in Item 6 Selected Financial Information of this Form 10-K.
 
Historically, LanVision has derived most of its revenues from systems sales, recurring application-hosting services, recurring maintenance fees, and professional services involving the licensing, either directly or through remarketing partners, of its Medical Record Workflow and Revenue Cycle Management solutions to Integrated Healthcare Delivery Networks (IDN). In a typical transaction, LanVision, or its remarketing partners, enter into a perpetual license or fee-for-service subscription agreement for LanVision’s software application suite and may license or sell other third-party software and hardware components to the IDN. Additionally, LanVision provides professional services, including implementation, training, and product support.
 
With respect to systems sales, LanVision earns its highest margins on proprietary LanVision software and application-hosting services and the lowest margins on third-party hardware and software. Systems sales to customers may include different configurations of LanVision software, hardware, third party software, and professional services, resulting in varying margins among contracts. The margins on professional services revenues fluctuate based upon the negotiated terms of the agreement with each customer and LanVision’s ability to fully utilize its professional services, maintenance, and support services staff.

Beginning in 1998, LanVision began offering customers the ability to obtain its workflow solutions on an application-hosting basis as an Application Service Provider (ASP). LanVision established a hosting data center and installed LanVision’s suite of workflow products, called ASPeN (Application Service Provider eHealth Network) within the hosting data center. Under this arrangement, customers electronically capture information and securely transmit the data to the hosting data center. The ASPeN services store and manage the data using LanVision’s suite of applications, and customers can view, print, fax, and process the information from anywhere using the LanVision Web-based applications. LanVision charges and recognizes revenue for these ASPeN services on a per transaction or subscription basis as information is captured, stored, retrieved and processed.
 
The decisions by a healthcare provider to replace, substantially modify, or upgrade its information systems are a strategic decision and often involve a large capital commitment requiring an extended approval process. Since inception, LanVision has experienced extended sales cycles. It is not uncommon 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 operating results. These agreements cover the licensing, implementation and maintenance of the system, which typically takes place in one or more phases. The licensing agreements generally provide for the licensing of LanVision’s proprietary software and third-party software with a perpetual or term license fee that is adjusted depending on the number of concurrent users or workstations using the software. Site-specific customization, interfaces with existing customer systems and other consulting services are sold on a fixed fee or a time and materials basis. Alternatively, with LanVision’s ASP services solution, the application-hosting services agreements generally provide for utilizing LanVision’s software and third-party software on a fee per transaction or recurring subscription basis.
 
ASPeN services was designed to overcome obstacles in the buying decision such as large capital commitment, length of implementation, and the scarcity of time for Healthcare Information Systems personnel to implement new systems. LanVision believes that large IDN’s and smaller healthcare providers are looking for this type of ASP application because of the ease of implementation and lower entry-level costs. LanVision believes its business model is especially well suited for the medium to small acute care facility marketplace as well as the ambulatory marketplace and is actively pursuing remarketing agreements, in addition to those discussed below, with other Healthcare Information Systems (HIS) and staff outsourcing providers to distribute LanVision’s workflow solutions.
 
Generally, revenues from systems sales are recognized when an agreement is signed and products are made available to end-users. Revenue recognition related to routine installation, integration and project management are deferred until the work is performed. Revenues from consulting, training, and application-hosting services are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from short-term support and maintenance agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the agreements. Billings to customers recorded prior to the recognition of the revenue are classified as deferred revenues. Revenues recognized prior to progress billings to customers are recorded as contract receivables.
 
In 2002, LanVision entered into a five year Remarketing Agreement with IDX Information Systems Corporation, which was acquired by GE Healthcare, a unit of the General Electric Company in January 2006. Under the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, IDX was granted a non-exclusive worldwide license to distribute all LanVision workflow software including accessANYwaretm, codingANYwaretm, and ASPeN application-hosting services to IDX customers and prospective customers, as defined in the Remarketing Agreement.
 
Under the terms of a Remarketing Agreement with IDX, LanVision records this revenue when the products are made available to end-users, which is usually at the same time the royalty report is received from IDX. Royalties are remitted by IDX to LanVision based upon IDX sublicensing LanVision’s software to IDX’s customers. Thirty percent of the royalty is due 45 days following the end of the month in which IDX executes an end-user license agreement with its customer. The remaining seventy percent of the royalty is due from IDX, in varying amounts based on specific milestones, 45 days following the end of the month in which a milestone occurs.
 
LanVision’s quarterly operating results have varied in the past and may continue to do so in the future because of various reasons including: demand for LanVision’s products and services, long sales cycles, and extended installation and implementation cycles based on customer’s schedules. Sales are often delayed because of

customers’ budgets and competing capital expenditure needs as well as personnel resource constraints within an integrated delivery network.
 
Delays in anticipated sales or installations may have a significant impact on LanVision’s quarterly revenues and operating results, because substantial portions of the operating expenses are fixed.
 
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in its National Health Expenditure Projections released in January 2003, believe that the health spending expenditures will reach $3.1 trillion in 2012, growing at an average annual rate of 7.3% during the forecasted period 2002-2012. As a share of the Gross Domestic Product, health spending is projected to reach 17.7% by 2012 up from its 2002 level of 14.1%. Total spending on healthcare was $1.9 trillion in 2004, over four times the amount spent on defense (source: National Coalition on Health Care). Hospital spending accounted for 28% of the growth in personal health spending between 1997 and 2000 and increased to 38% by 2002 — 2004. The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services projections indicate that by 2015, health spending will account for 20% of gross domestic product, up from 16% in 2005 and the growth in spending is projected to average 7.2% a year. In response to this growth, the healthcare industry is undergoing significant change as competition and cost-containment measures imposed by governmental and private payers have created significant 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 records are paper-based. The inefficiencies of paper-based records increase the cost of patient care. Physicians often cannot gain access to medical records at the time of patient visits, and multiple users cannot simultaneously access the record when only a single copy of the paper-based patient record is available. Based upon LanVision’s experience in installing its systems, a typical 500 bed hospital can produce 15,000 to 20,000 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 documents per physician per day. The volume of medical images in the patient record is expanding as well. In addition to images such as x-rays and CAT scans, MRI’s, 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 Computerized Patient Record.
 
In order to simultaneously reduce costs and enhance the level of patient care, hospitals and other healthcare providers are requiring 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 records 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 information systems expenditures. In the eleventh Annual Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Leadership Survey, healthcare business issues were driving Information Technology priorities with over half of the respondents indicating that cost pressures would continue to be a driving force in improving operational efficiencies. Included in the top ten Information Technology priorities was the implementation of Computerized Patient Records. Respondents believe that implementing eHealth and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) strategies (See Regulations Relating to Confidentiality below) will consume most of the Information Technology budget, because use of interactive eHealth solutions has become a competitive advantage. Providers, payers and suppliers know that the consequences of ignoring an eHealth Strategy will result in the loss of market share.
 
LanVision believes that the HIPAA regulations are an additional impetus for IDN’s to embrace LanVision products and services as a means of ensuring compliance with Federal Regulations. A Medical Records Institute survey of Electronic Health Records Trends and Usage reported that one of the more interesting findings indicated


4


Table of Contents

that 83% of the respondents acknowledge that EMR systems can help improve workflow, 78% said that such systems can help improve clinical documentation, and 77% said EMRs will help improve patient safety.
 
Document imaging and workflow (management) technologies are essential elements of a complete EMR because they allow for the storage of unstructured data (i.e., patient record elements other than data or text, such as hand written physician or nursing notes and physician orders, photographs, images of a document) 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. LanVision believes the demand for its Medical Record Workflow solutions, which can supply document-imaging capabilities to the EMR, will increase in future years.
 
Also, a HIMSS Leadership Survey indicated that 69% of the survey respondents were interested in outsourcing Information Technology functions in ASP services. Additionally, the Information Technology individuals responding to the HIMSS Leadership Survey indicated that security related to patient records to meet HIPAA regulations was the second most important Information Technology priority within their institutions. The number one priority was to deploy Internet technology to support eHealth by moving healthcare information to the Web.
 
In addition to mandated HIPAA regulations, the healthcare industry is being strongly encouraged by many professional medical organizations to make greater use of information technology. A report by the Institute of Medicine (IOM) of the National Academies, entitled To Err is Human: Building a Better Health System, envisioned a revamped system that, among other things, makes greater use of information technology to enable providers and institutions to move away from paper-based medical record systems to take advantage of new information technology. The American Medical Association, American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Physicians, American Society of Internal Medicine, and the American College of Surgeons, issued a joint statement supporting the IOM recommendations.
 
Current Regulatory Matters
 
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) has asked the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences to design a standardized model of an electronic health record, in a move that may help spur nationwide acceptance of EMR’s. The impact of such a change, if implemented by HSS, on current LanVision products and services is unknown at this time. However, LanVision believes that its software and systems are sufficiently flexible to accommodate changing regulatory requirements. Also, in 2004, President Bush put forth the goal of establishing EMR’s for most Americans within 10 years. According to a Wall Street Journal article dated April 27, 2004, a new national health-technology coordinator has been appointed who reports to the Secretary of HSS. His responsibility is specifically to create a plan to guide the highly fragmented industry toward an interoperable electronic medical records system. The HSS Secretary has also announced incentives for healthcare providers to speed up the conversion to electronic medical records, with possible regional grants, low-rate loans and various pilot programs. The Bush administration made $50 million available for electronic-records demonstration projects in 2004. The President’s 2005 budget doubled that amount to $100 million. As noted in a Wall Street Journal article dated July 21, 2004, “Putting such a system in place can cost a major hospital $20 million or more. HSS estimates that in the U.S., only about 13% of hospitals have adopted electronic health records for patients. As a result, the health-care industry lags far behind most other industries in using computers.” According to an October 30, 2005 Business Week Online article President Bush appointed David J. Brailer as national coordinator for Health Information Technology in the Health and Human Services Department. His task is to “give every American an electronic medical record of their health care by 2014, and link all the records into one giant medical Internet, called the National Health Information Network.” Dr. Brailer’s team “will build the network’s backbone and set the standards for swapping data.” Physicians and hospitals will have to pay for the computers, software, and other infrastructure, which according to Brailer is “estimated at up to $150 Billion over five years.”
 
President’s Information Technology Advisory Committee
 
On June 30, 2004, the President’s Information Technology Advisory Committee issued its report entitled Revolutionizing Health Care Through Information Technology, which focused on the “most fundamental and pervasive problem of healthcare delivery: the paper-based medical record.” In the report, they stated “the potential of information technology to reduce the number of medical errors, reduce cost, and improve patient care is


5


Table of Contents

enormous. The essence of our recommendations is a framework for 21st century health care information infrastructure that revolutionizes medical records systems. The four core elements of this framework are:
 
(1) Electronic health records for all Americans that provide every patient and his or her caregivers the necessary information required for optimal care while reducing costs and administrative overhead.
 
(2) Computer-assisted clinical decision support to increase the ability of health care providers to take advantage of state-of-the-art medical knowledge as they make treatment decisions (enabling the practice of evidenced-based medicine).
 
(3) Computerized provider order entry — such as for tests, medicine, and procedures — both for outpatient care and within the hospital environment.
 
(4) Secure, private, interoperable, electronic health information exchange, including both highly specific standards for capturing new data and tools for capturing non-standard-compliant electronic information from legacy systems.”
 
LanVision’s current products and services can currently be used to implement some of the recommendations or provide interim solutions to some of the aspects recommended in items 1, 3 & 4 above, especially with regard to legacy, paper — based, medical information, order entry systems, other than medication, and security of exchanging health information.
 
Based on the Federal initiatives noted above, LanVision believes that its product and services are able to support these and other similar initiatives, and its products are currently available and installed at leading healthcare facilities throughout the U.S.
 
Regulations Relating to Confidentiality
 
Federal and state laws regulate the confidentiality of patient records and the circumstances under which such records may be released. These regulations govern both the disclosure and use of confidential patient health information. Regulations governing electronic health data privacy are continuing to evolve. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, enacted August 22, 1996, is designed to improve the efficiency of healthcare by standardizing the interchange of specified electronic data, and to protect the security and confidentiality of Protected Health Information (PHI). The legislation requires that covered entities comply with national standards for certain types of electronic health information transactions and the data elements used in such transactions, and adopt policies and practices to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of PHI.
 
Regulations adopted pursuant to HIPAA include rules addressing several areas. Compliance with the new Privacy Rule was required by most covered entities (other than small health plans) by April 2003. The final Privacy Rule also extended the scope of enforcement to PHI residing on non-electronic media, such as paper, as well as to email, oral and written communications. The regulations under the Security Rule were effective in April 2003, with a compliance date of April 2005. Small health plans have until April 2006 to comply with the Security Rule. The regulations issued to date have not had a material adverse affect on its business. LanVision cannot predict the potential impact of new or revised the regulations that have not yet been released or made final, or any other regulations that might be adopted. Congress may adopt legislation that may change, override, conflict with, or preempt the currently issued regulations. Additionally, legislation governing the dissemination of patient health information is also from time to time proposed and debated at the state level. These laws or regulations, when adopted, could restrict the ability of customers to obtain, use, or disseminate patient health information. LanVision believes that the features and architecture of LanVision’s products are such that it currently supports or should be able to make the necessary modifications to its products, if required, to ensure support of the HIPAA regulations, and other legislation or regulations.
 
However, if the regulations are unduly restrictive, this could cause delays in the delivery of new versions of products and adversely effect the licensing of LanVision’s products. Overall, LanVision believes the HIPAA regulations will continue to stimulate healthcare organizations to purchase computer-based EMR systems that automate the collection, use, and disclosure of patient health information, while maintaining appropriate security

and audit controls over the information. However, there can be no assurance that an increase in the purchase of new systems or additional use of LanVision application-hosting services will occur.
 
Rapid Technological Change and Evolving Market
 
The market for LanVision’s products and services is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, regulatory requirements, evolving industry standards and new product introductions and enhancements that may render existing products obsolete or less competitive. As a result, LanVision’s position in the healthcare information technology market could change rapidly due to unforeseen changes in the features and functions of competing products, as well as the pricing models for such products. LanVision’s future success will depend, in part, upon LanVision’s ability to enhance its existing products and services and to develop and introduce new products and services to meet changing requirements.
 
Changes and Consolidation in the Healthcare Industry
 
LanVision derives substantially all of its revenues from the licensing of software, providing professional services and maintenance services and providing application-hosting services within the healthcare industry. Accordingly, the success of LanVision is dependent upon the regulatory and economic conditions in the healthcare industry. Many healthcare providers are consolidating to establish integrated delivery networks to take advantage of economies of scale, greater marketing power and greater leverage in negotiating with vendors who supply the industry with the goods and services they require. The impact of such consolidations, LanVision believes, will benefit LanVision as more healthcare organizations investigate methods to streamline operations, including outsourcing non-core services to reduce costs and improve the quality of patient care through the use of information technology, especially in the paper intensive area of Patient Medical Records and Patient Financial Services.
 
Key Personnel
 
LanVision’s success depends, to a significant degree, on its management and technical personnel. LanVision must recruit, motivate and retain highly skilled managers, consulting and technical personnel, including application programmers, database specialists, consultants and system architects skilled in the technical environments in which LanVision’s products operate. Competition for such technical expertise is intense. Our failure to attract and retain qualified personnel could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
 
Limited Protection of Proprietary Technology
 
The success of LanVision depends on the protection of its intellectual property rights relating to its proprietary technology. LanVision relies on a combination of confidentiality, nondisclosure, license, and employment agreements, trade secret laws, copyrights, and restrictions on the disclosure of its intellectual property. Notwithstanding these precautions, others may copy, reverse engineer or design independently, technology similar to LanVision’s products. It may be necessary to litigate to enforce or defend LanVision’s proprietary technology or to determine the validity of the intellectual property rights of others. LanVision could also be required to defend itself against claims made by third parties for intellectual property right infringement. Any litigation, could be successful or unsuccessful, may result in substantial cost and require significant attention by management and technical personnel.
 
Warranties and Indemnities
 
LanVision’s products are very complex and may not be error free, especially when first released. Failure of any LanVision product to operate in accordance with its specifications and documentation could constitute a breach of the license agreement and require LanVision to correct the deficiency. If such deficiency is not corrected within the agreed upon contractual limitations on liability and cannot be corrected in a timely manner, it could constitute a material breach of a contract allowing the termination thereof and possibly subjecting LanVision to liability. Also, LanVision indemnifies its customers against third-party infringement claims. If such claims are made, even if they are without merit, they could be expensive to defend. If LanVision becomes liable to a third-party for infringement of their intellectual property, LanVision could be required to pay substantial amounts as damages, obtain a license to

use the infringing technologies, develop its own noninfringing technologies, or cease using the infringing intellectual property.
 
Competition
 
Several companies historically have dominated the Healthcare Clinical Information System software market and several of these companies have either acquired, developed or are developing their own document imaging and workflow technologies. The industry is undergoing consolidation and realignment as companies position themselves to compete more effectively. Strategic alliances between vendors offering Medical Record Workflow and document imaging technologies 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. LanVision believes that these barriers taken together represent a moderate to high level barrier to entry. Foreign competition has not been a significant factor in the market, to date.
 
LanVision’s competitors include Clinical Information System vendors that are larger and more established and have substantially more resources than LanVision. In addition, information and document management companies serving other industries may enter the market. Suppliers and companies with whom 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, workflow, 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 and functionality (including ease of use), technological advancements, customer service and support, breadth and quality of the systems, the potential for enhancements and future compatible products, the effectiveness of marketing and sales efforts, price and the size and perceived financial stability of the vendor. 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 LanVision will be able to compete successfully in the future against existing or potential competitors.
 
LanVision believes that its principal competitors are: American Management Systems, Incorporated; Cerner Corporation; Eclipsys Corporation; Hyland Software, Inc.; McKesson HBOC, Inc.; MedPlus, Inc. (a subsidiary of Quest Diagnostics Incorporated); Perceptive Vision, Inc.; Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. (a subsidiary of Siemens AG); and SoftMed Systems, Inc.

benefits include: improved access to patient information 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; reduced costs and improved care through the reduction of unnecessary testing and admissions; improved cash flow through accelerated account receivable collections and reductions in “technical denials” (which occur when a third-party payer 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, 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
 
LanVision’s objective is to continue to be a leading provider of Medical Record and Patient Financial Services Workflow solutions to the healthcare industry. Important elements of LanVision’s business strategy include:
 
Expand Distribution Channels
 
LanVision estimates the total market for LanVision’s document management products and services could be in excess of $16 billion, and the market is less than 15% penetrated. A healthcare industry report stated that in order to comply with the HIPAA healthcare information electronic transmission regulations, healthcare systems will need to adjust existing systems or purchase new Information Technology systems, hire and retrain staff, and make significant changes to the current processes associated with maintaining patient privacy, the cost of which is estimated to be somewhere between three to four times the amount of expenditures required for Year 2000 remediation, or an amount in excess of $25 billion. LanVision strongly believes its highly evolved, secure and technologically advanced Web browser-based ASP solutions will position LanVision to take advantage of, what it continues to believe will be, significantly increasing market opportunities for LanVision and its distribution partners in the future.
 
As previously noted in 2002, LanVision entered into a five-year Remarketing Agreement with IDX (now GE Healthcare), which offers a wide variety of patient care products to integrated delivery networks, group practices, academic medical centers, radiological centers, and hospitals nationwide. IDX has installed its products at more than 2,600 customer sites with systems deployed to serve over 120,000 physicians. Under the terms of the Agreement, IDX was granted a non-exclusive worldwide license to distribute all LanVision applications and ASPeN services to IDX customers and prospective customers, as defined in the Agreement. IDX will sell LanVision’s Electronic Medical Record Workflow and document imaging products as an integrated component of the IDX clinical information systems, which IDX can remarket as an integrated solution with either IDX product Carecasttm or LastWord®.
 
It is LanVision’s intention to develop additional remarketing alliances with other Healthcare Information Systems, Medical Records management, and Medical Records outsourcing vendors and to explore other means of expanding LanVision’s distribution channels.
 
Application Service Provider Application-hosting Services
 
Beginning in 1998, LanVision began offering customers the ability to obtain its workflow solutions on an application-hosting basis as an ASP. LanVision established a hosting data center and installed LanVision’s suite of workflow products, called ASPeN within the hosting data center, which utilizes LanVision’s Web browser-based applications across an Internet/Intranet, to deliver high quality, transaction-based services to healthcare providers from a centrally located data center. ASPeN enables its healthcare customers to achieve enhanced patient care, improved security, and accessibility to patient records at significant cost savings with minimal up-front capital investment, maintenance, and support costs. Customers realize benefits more quickly with less economic risk. Customers are charged on a per transaction or subscription basis, which is an attractive alternative to purchasing an

in-house system. This service is made possible through the advancement of Web browser-based technology, state-of-the-art communication technology and advanced software design.
 
Maintain Technological Leadership Through the Development of New Software Applications and Increased Functionality of Existing Applications
 
LanVision intends to continue its product development efforts and increase the functionality of existing applications along with the development of new applications using document imaging and workflow technologies. In particular, LanVision intends to increase the functionality of its Web-based applications. LanVision has continued to add new features and functionality to its suite of products, including revenue cycle management solutions such as remote coding, remote physician order processing, pre-admission registration scanning, insurance verification, denial management, secondary billing services, explanation of benefits processing, etc.
 
LanVision has released its latest generation product, accessANYware, a Web-based application with a user interface that includes the best features of LanVision’s entire product portfolio. The accessANYware application utilizes a common database for medical records and patient financial services, thereby improving system administration and eliminating redundant data entry.
 
LanVision has implemented its first revenue cycle products, codingANYware, an application that provides workflow automation of the coding and abstracting process by allowing hospital personnel to electronically access documents to be coded and abstracted from remote locations, including the employee’s home. The codingANYware product can also be integrated with third-party encoding or abstracting software, such as 3M, thus avoiding redundant data entry.
 
LanVision believes only the most robust, flexible, dependable products will survive in the healthcare market, and LanVision has attempted to establish itself as a leader in document imaging/management and workflow applications through strong product development.
 
Image-Enable Clinical Data Repositories and Other Applications Software
 
Today, healthcare information is often stored on numerous dissimilar host-based and departmental systems that are spread throughout an 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 CAT scans, MRI’s, digitized slides, exploratory scopes, photographs, audio, etc. LanVision believes the efficiencies and productivity of hospitals and integrated healthcare 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 medical record, including the structured data, such as laboratory results, and related unstructured data, or a doctor’s hand written notes. LanVision has image-enabled many popular Clinical Data Repositories, such as those offered by Oacis Healthcare Holdings Corp., IDX Information Systems Corporation, and Cerner Corporation. LanVision is marketing image-enabling technology through its accessANYware and LanVision Application Bridge products. LanVision intends to continue to aggressively market its unique image-enabling solutions to end-users and other third-party software application providers. LanVision has several large scale, enterprisewide image enabled sites, including Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, which utilizes LanVision’s solution on over 7,000 workstations and over 1,150 simultaneous users at any point in time.
 
Systems and Services
 
LanVision’s systems employ an open architecture that supports a variety of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000 and 2003, and UNIX. LanVision’s systems can be configured with various hardware platforms, including INTEL-compatible personal computers. LanVision’s systems include a user interface designed specifically by LanVision for physicians and other medical and administrative personnel in hospitals and integrated healthcare networks. LanVision’s systems operate on multiple imaging platforms, including Siemens and FileNet in addition to its own proprietary document imaging platform. LanVision’s Medical Record Workflow solutions incorporate advanced features, including workflow and security features, which allow customers to restrict direct access to confidential patient information, secure patient data from unauthorized indirect access and have audit trail features.

A brief description of LanVision’s products follows:
 
LanVision products and services are built using advanced document imaging/management and workflow automation technology to create robust Medical Records and Revenue Cycle Workflow solutions. Document imaging technology makes paper-based information, as well as medical images, sound and video information as readily available and easy to process as traditional electronic data. Workflow automation offers intelligent electronic routing of documents and sophisticated management tools and reporting to increase efficiency and to support business process re-engineering efforts.
 
LanVision’s products and services were designed to be complementary with existing third-party HIS and ASP-based services, providing value-added functionality to these third-party applications, including the following:
 
  •  the ability to gain seamless electronic access to medical records, business office documents and medical images (unstructured data);
 
  •  workflow-based automated chart deficiency analysis and completion;
 
  •  workflow-based automated release of information and billing;
 
  •  workflow-based remote coding and seamless integration to third-party encoder and abstracter software;
 
  •  workflow-based physician order routing for scheduling;
 
  •  workflow-based financial screening and routing of patient financial ability to pay information;
 
  •  computer aided data extraction solutions using OCR technology to scan, extract, verify, and input into existing information systems data;
 
  •  EOB 835 processing for electronic filing of Explanation of Benefits documents, and
 
  •  archival support for a legal/historical repository of patient information.
 
LanVision has developed innovative application tool sets to “image and web-enable” existing HIS clinical and patient financial services applications, thus allowing clients to have a common graphical user interface on a universal workstation. LanVision has also developed its own proprietary document imaging middleware (Foundation Suite) to efficiently provide the object-oriented business processes common to all of its applications, such as scanning/indexing, faxing/printing, data archiving migration, security and auditing. Through its application software, document imaging middleware, and its workflow, image and web-enabling tools, LanVision allows the seamless merging of its Medical Record and Patient Financial Services department “back office” functionality with existing clinical information systems at the desktop.
 
For maximum flexibility, the most current LanVision family of products and services, accessANYware, is packaged into four distinct offerings: the Health Information Management (HIM) Suite, the Patient Financial Services (PFS) Suite, the Enterprise Suite; and a set of Productivity Tools.
 
The accessANYware family of products is LanVision’s fifth-generation document-centric repository of historical health information that is complementary and can be seamlessly “bolted on” to existing transaction-centric clinical, financial and management information systems, allowing healthcare providers to aggressively move toward fully EMR’s. It allows authorized users to perform document searching, retrieval, viewing, processing, printing and faxing, as well as report generation ...all from a single login.
 
HEALTH INFORMATION MANAGEMENT Suite
 
The HIM Suite includes accessANYware — Patient Folders, Completion Workflow, releaseANYwaretm, codingANYware, the LanVision Application Bridge and the LanVision Productivity Tools.
 
accessANYware — Patient Folders
 
accessANYware — Patient Folders is a web-based application that provides hospital organizations the ability to electronically store, search and retrieve medical records from any location within the facility, physician offices, off-site clinics and even from home. In addition, accessANYware — Patient Folders


11


Table of Contents

provides a complete web-based chart deficiency management system that includes analysis, electronic signature and management reports — all from a single login. accessANYware — Patient Folders allows the user to securely view the entire medical record from a visit view or a category-based longitudinal view of historical patient information.
 
Completion Workflow
 
The Completion Workflow application is an integrated module of accessANYware that provides analysts and clinicians the ability to remotely analyze, electronically sign and complete deficient records. In addition to a single login, accessANYware delivers a single user interface and integrated database. Therefore, from a single login to the system, users with appropriate security have the ability to search and retrieve information regarding patients and cases (for chart analysis), view, print and fax patient documents, as well as analyze or complete deficient documents, via the Completion Workflow module. The functions presented to the user vary with the user’s security. For example, if the user is a clinician, he/she is presented with an inbox function that displays a list of incomplete charts (awaiting completion) and a list of “linked” patients assigned to them. The clinician then has the option to complete deficient charts or retrieve patient information via searching or by clicking on the “linked” patients within their inbox. This access may occur from any workstation within the facility, the physician’s office, or some other remote site. With proper security, the user is able to view, print and fax patient information.
 
releaseANYware
 
LanVision clients also have the option of further enhancing the productivity of their operations through the releaseANYware workflow module which fulfills internal and external requests for patient information and allows for automatic invoicing capability. It also provides the ability to electronically search for, print, mail or fax information to third parties that request copies of patient records.
 
codingANYware
 
Due to an acute shortage of available coding personnel, there currently exists a great demand for solutions to attract and retain qualified coders and to make the coding process more efficient. In 2002, LanVision introduced codingANYware, which provides workflow automation of the coding and abstracting process by allowing hospital personnel to electronically access documents to be coded and abstracted from remote locations, including the employee’s home. codingANYware may also be integrated with third-party encoding or abstracting software, avoiding redundant data entry.
 
PATIENT FINANCIAL SERVICES Suite
 
The PFS Suite includes accessANYware — Non Patient Folders, Orders Management Workflow, Financial Screening Workflow, Denial Management and Cash Posting Workflow, an EOB 835 interface, and the LanVision Productivity Tools.
 
accessANYware — Non Patient Folders
 
accessANYware — Non Patient Folders is a web-based business tool that allows any department of a healthcare organization the ability to store, retrieve and process document-centric information using a site-defined electronic folder hierarchy with a user-friendly interface. accessANYware — Non Patient Folders provides document imaging and workflow capabilities for a hospital organization’s enterprise-wide departmental needs, such as Patient Financial Services, Business Office, Human Resources, Materials Management, Medical Staff Office, Purchasing and virtually any other department that has document intensive storage, retrieval and processing needs.
 
Orders Management Workflow
 
Orders Management Workflow — provides automatic routing of physician orders to the appropriate personnel for scheduling patient appointments.

Table of Contents

Financial Screening Workflow
 
Financial Screening Workflow — provides automatic creation and routing of documentation for patients that do not have the ability to pay that the hospital can use to qualify the patient for other assistance.
 
Denial Management and Cash Posting Workflow
 
Denial Management and Cash Posting Workflow, which is currently under development, will provide Root Cause Analysis by collecting data on denied claims which allows the facility to actually solve the problems that are responsible for claim denial instead of reworking the same issues month after month.
 
EOB 835 Interface
 
EOB 835 Interface provides automatic filing of electronic remittance advices and Explanation of Benefits documents by patient.
 
Enterprise Suite
 
The Enterprise Suite is a full offering of LanVision products including the HIM Suite, the PFS Suite, codingANYware and LVAB (See Below).
 
Productivity Tools
 
The Productivity Tools provide a comprehensive set of workflows, including: (i) a customizable workflow engine for business process re-engineering, (ii) single sign-on and context management, (iii) non-invasive image enabling of third-party software applications, and (iv) E-Forms management.
 
The LanVision Application Bridge (LVAB)
 
LVAB supports powerful image-enabling and workflow technology that allows healthcare users to immediately and simultaneously access any patient information, including multimedia and paper-based information, through their existing third-party clinical or billing applications. As a result, any application across the entire enterprise can be image-enabled, including the host Healthcare Information Systems, Patient Billing Systems, Clinical Data Repositories and others. When the Clinical Data Repository 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 users can view traditional electronic data and images simultaneously on the same screen without signing in and out of multiple applications.
 
The Foundation Suite
 
The Foundation Suite is robust middleware architecture for document imaging/management infrastructure, built for maximum performance in high document volume settings and optimized for the healthcare industry. The features resident in the Foundation Suite were built around patient-oriented objects that result in more efficient code and rapid delivery to market of new applications. The Foundation Suite is designed in a reusable object-oriented environment, utilizing a 32-bit Windows-based architecture that provides the following essential document imaging/management functions: security, auditing, data access, printing/faxing, scheduling, data archiving migration and full problem diagnosis. The Foundation Suite offers the following unique enhanced security and auditing functions that facilitate HIPAA Compliance and are essential to integrated delivery networks in a multi-entity environment:
 
  •  multiple levels of security (administrative, user, patient, document, workstation, physical location, and healthcare entity) configurable by user, workstation and location, and
 
  •  full audit trails and reporting of every record viewed, printed, faxed, processed, or unauthorized login attempts at the patient encounter or document level.

ASPeN...Application Service Provider eHealth Network
 
LanVision’s ASPeN, ASP-based Medical Record and Patient Financial Services network, offers healthcare providers an even more cost-effective solution to manage patient information. Through its use of Internet/Intranet technology, ASPeN helps hospitals and integrated delivery networks overcome the barriers of high capital and start-up costs as well as the technological burdens of implementing a document imaging/management and workflow system. ASPeN delivers Medical Record, coding and Patient Financial Services applications to its healthcare customers on an outsourced basis from a central data center. Hospitals and integrated delivery systems can therefore take advantage of a private Intranet or the Web, the lowest cost network infrastructure, for truly enterprise-wide, secure access to healthcare information.
 
Professional Services
 
LanVision provides a full complement of professional services to implement its software applications. LanVision believes that high quality consulting and professional implementation services are important to attracting new customers and maintaining existing customer satisfaction. These services include implementation and training, project management, business process re-engineering, 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, workflow and report development.
 
Research and Development
 
LanVision continues to focus its research and development efforts to develop new application software and increase the functionality of existing applications. Customer requirements and desires significantly influence LanVision’s research and development efforts.
 
Product research and development expense was $2,733,293, $2,061,207, and $2,053,901 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. In addition, LanVision also capitalized approximately $1,450,000, $1,000,000, and $800,000 of software development expenditures in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

RevenueMed, Inc., Alpharetta, GA
 
IDX has also sublicensed LanVision’s suite of products to nine healthcare organizations.
 
In fiscal year 2005, Texas Health Resources, Inc., IDX Information Systems, and M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, accounted for 18%, 12% and 11%, respectively, of LanVision’s total revenues. In fiscal year 2004, IDX Information Systems, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, and OhioHealth Corporation accounted for 21%, 13% and 13%, respectively, of LanVision’s total revenues. In fiscal year 2003, IDX Information Systems, M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, and OhioHealth Corporation accounted for 30%, 12% and 6%, respectively, of LanVision’s total revenues.
 
The small number of customers, the dependence on remarketing partner IDX, and extended sales cycles has contributed to variability in quarterly and annual operating results. LanVision expects that as its customer base continues to increase and sales through its Remarketing Agreements increase, the actions of any one customer will have less of an effect on its quarterly and annual operating results. The loss of a major customer or the remarketing partner IDX could have a material adverse effect on LanVision.
 
Signed Agreements — Backlog
 
See also ITEM 7, MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — Backlog, for an explanation of the current year backlog compared with the prior year backlog.
 
LanVision enters into master agreements with its customers to specify the scope of the system to be installed and/or services to be provided by LanVision, the agreed upon aggregate price and the timetable for implementation. The master agreement typically provides that LanVision will deliver the system in phases, 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


15


Table of Contents

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.
 
At January 31, 2006, LanVision has master agreements, purchase orders, or royalty reports from remarketing partners for systems and related services (excluding support and maintenance, and transaction-based revenues for the application-hosting services) that have not been delivered, installed which, if fully performed, will generate future revenues of approximately $4,159,000. The related products and services are expected to be delivered over the next two to three years. Furthermore, LanVision has entered into application-hosting agreements, which are expected to generate revenues in excess of $4,784,000 through their respective renewal dates in fiscal years 2006 and 2007.
 
LanVision’s master agreements also generally provide for a limited initial maintenance period and require the customer to subscribe for maintenance and support services on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. Maintenance and support revenues for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were approximately $5,104,000, $5,220,000, and $4,712,000, respectively. Maintenance and support revenues are expected to increase in the future. At January 31, 2006, LanVision had Maintenance Agreements, purchase orders or royalty reports from remarketing partners for maintenance, which if fully performed, will generate future revenues of approximately $3,533,000, through their respective renewal dates in fiscal year 2006 and 2007.
 
The commencement of revenue recognition varies depending on the size and complexity of the system, the implementation schedule requested by the customer and usage by customers of the application-hosting services. Therefore, LanVision is unable to accurately predict the revenue it expects to achieve in any particular period. LanVision’s master agreements generally provide that the customer may terminate its agreement upon a material breach by LanVision, or may delay certain aspects of the installation. There can be no assurance that a customer will not cancel all or any portion of a master agreement or delay installations. A termination or installation delay of one or more phases of an agreement, or the failure of LanVision to procure additional agreements, could have a material adverse effect on LanVision’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 
Royalties
 
LanVision incorporates software licensed from various vendors into its proprietary software. In addition, third-party, stand-alone software is required to operate LanVision’s proprietary software. LanVision licenses these software products, and pays the required royalties and/or license fees when such software is delivered to LanVision’s customers.
 
Employees
 
As of January 31, 2006, LanVision had 94 full-time employees. In addition, LanVision utilizes independent contractors to supplement its staff, as needed. None of LanVision’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.

Table of Contents

The variability of quarterly operating results can be significant.
 
The Company’s future revenues and operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside the control of the Company. These factors include the relatively large size of customer agreements, unpredictability in the number and timing of system sales, length of the sales cycle, delays in installations and changes in customer’s financial condition or budgets.
 
The Company needs to manage its growth.
 
The Company is currently experiencing a period of growth and expansion which has placed, and could continue to place, a significant strain on the Company’s services and support operations, sales and administrative personnel and other resources. LanVision believes that it must expand the workforce to serve the needs of its existing and anticipated customer base. The Company’s ability to successfully expand its operations will depend, in large part, upon its ability to attract and retain highly qualified employees. The Company’s ability to manage its planned growth effectively also will require the Company to continue to improve its operational, management, and financial systems and controls, to train, motivate, and manage its employees and to increase its operating expenses in anticipation that such growth will increase future revenues.
 
The Company could be less profitable than expected.
 
Because of the relatively fixed operating expenses and overhead, the future profitability of the Company is dependent on increasing revenues which may not materialize as anticipated.
 
Sales have been concentrated in a small number of customers.
 
The Company’s revenues have been concentrated in a relatively small number of large customers, and the Company has historically derived a substantial percentage of its total revenues from a few customers. There can be no assurance that a customer will not cancel all or any portion of a master agreement or delay installations. A termination or installation delay of one or more phases of an agreement, or the failure of LanVision to procure additional agreements, could have a material adverse effect on LanVision’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company’s major reseller could choose to discontinue reselling LanVision products, and significant customers could elect to discontinue using our products. The Company needs to ensure that the Company expands the distribution channels to reduce the reliance on a single major reseller and expand the customer base to ensure that the loss of a customer is not a significant loss in total revenues.
 
LanVision faces significant competition, including from companies with significantly greater resources.
 
The Company currently competes with more than eight other companies for the licensing of competitive software products and the related services. Most of these companies are larger than us, and have significantly more resources to invest in their business.
 
LanVision’s intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce the value of LanVision’s products and services.
 
The Company trademarks and copyrights its intellectual property, which represents an important asset to the Company. LanVision does not have any patent protection on any of its software. The Company relies upon license agreements, employment agreements, confidentiality, nondisclosure agreements, etc. to maintain the confidentiality of LanVision’s proprietary information and trade secrets. If the Company fails to adequately protect the intellectual property through trademarks and copyrights, license agreements, employment agreements, confidentiality, nondisclosure agreements, etc., the intellectual property rights may be misappropriated by others, invalidated, or challenged, and our competitors could duplicate our technology or may otherwise limit any competitive technology advantage the Company may have. Also, the Company could be subject to intellectual property infringement claims as the number of software patents and copyrighted and trademarked materials are produced as our software functionality is expanded. Any claim, even if not meritorious, would be expensive to defend, and if the Company were to become liable for infringing third party intellectual property rights, the Company could be liable


17


Table of Contents

for substantial damage awards, and potentially be required to cease using the technology, produce noninfringing technology or obtain a license to use such technology.
 
Due to the rapid pace of technology change, the Company believes the future success is likely to depend upon continued innovation, technical expertise, marketing skills and customer support and services rather than on legal protection of our property rights. However, the Company intends to aggressively assert its intellectual property rights when necessary.
 
Rapid technology changes and short product life cycles could harm LanVision’s business.
 
The technology underlying LanVision’s product is subject to rapid change including the potential introduction of new products and technologies, which may have a material, adverse impact on its business, operating results, and financial condition. The Company needs to maintain an ongoing research and development program to continue to develop new products and apply new technologies to the existing products.
 
The impact of new or changes in existing federal, state, and local regulations governing healthcare information
 
Healthcare regulations issued to date have not had a material adverse affect on business. However, the Company cannot predict the potential impact of new or revised regulations that have not yet been released or made final, or any other regulations that might be adopted. Congress may adopt legislation that may change, override, conflict with, or preempt the currently issued regulations. Additionally, legislation governing the dissemination of patient health information is also from time-to-time proposed and debated at the state level. These laws or regulations, when adopted, could restrict the ability of customers to obtain, use, or disseminate patient health information. LanVision believes that the features and architecture of LanVision’s products are such that it currently supports or should be able to make the necessary modifications to its products, if required, to ensure support of the HIPAA regulations, and other legislation or regulations.
 
The loss of key personnel could adversely affect LanVision’s business.
 
LanVision’s success depends, to a significant degree, on its management and technical personnel. The Company must recruit, motivate, and retain highly skilled managers, consulting and technical personnel, including application programmers, database specialists, consultants, and system architects skilled in the technical environments in which our products operate. Competition for such technical expertise is intense.
 
LanVision software may not be error free and could result in claims of breach of contract and liabilities.
 
LanVision software products are very complex and may not be error free, especially when first released. Although The Company performs extensive testing, failure of any product to operate in accordance with its specifications and documentation could constitute a breach of the license agreement and require us to correct the deficiency. If such deficiency is not corrected within the agreed upon contractual limitations on liability and cannot be corrected in a timely manner, it could constitute a material breach of a contract allowing the termination thereof and possibly subjecting the Company to liability. LanVision’s license agreement generally limits our liability arising from such claims but such limits may not be enforceable in some jurisdictions or under some circumstances. A significant uninsured or under-insured judgment against the Company could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
 
The application-hosting services and support services could experience interruptions.
 
The Company performs hosting services for certain clients, including the storage of critical patient and administrative data. In addition, we provide support services to our clients through our client support facility. The Company has redundancies, such as backup generators and redundant telecommunications lines, built into its operations to prevent disruptions. However, complete failure of all generators or impairment of all telecommunications lines or severe casualty damage to the building or equipment inside the buildings housing our data center or client support facilities could cause a disruption in operations and adversely affect clients who depend on us for application hosting services. Any interruption in operations at our data center or client support facility could cause

us to lose existing clients, impede our ability to obtain new clients, result in revenue loss, cause potential liability to our clients, and increase our operating costs.
 
Third party products are essential to LanVision’s software.
 
LanVision software incorporates software licensed from various vendors into its proprietary software. In addition, third-party, stand-alone software is required to operate our proprietary software. The loss of the ability to use these third party products, or ability to obtain substitute third party software at comparable prices, could have a material adverse affect on our ability to license our software.
 
The Company could be liable to customers or third parties.
 
The Company’s systems provide access to patient information used by physicians and other medical personnel in providing medical care. The medical care provided by physicians and other medical personnel are subject to numerous medical malpractice and other claims. The Company attempts to limit any potential liability of the Company to customers by limiting the warranties on its systems in the Company’s agreements with healthcare provider. However, such agreements do not protect the Company from third party claims by patients who may seek damages from any or all persons or entities connected to the process of delivering patient care. The Company maintains insurance, which provide limited protection from such claims, if they are successfully litigated. Although no such claims have been brought against the Company to date regarding injuries related to the use of our software solutions, such claims may be made in the future. A significant uninsured or under-insured judgment against the Company could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
 
The Company needs to continuously anticipate future events, such as changes in regulations that could affect its products, and the probability of natural disasters, catastrophes war, or terrorism etc.
 
The Company may not correctly anticipate such future events which could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
 
Item 2.   Properties
 
LanVision’s principal offices are located at 10200 Alliance Road, Suite 200, Cincinnati, OH 45242-4716. The offices consist of approximately 21,700 square feet of space under a lease that expires in July 2010. In addition, LanVision leases dedicated collocation high security data center space in the Cincinnati, OH area, for its ASPeN Services, application-hosting data center operations, which leases expire in June 2007, but has automatic renewal provisions. The current rental expense for all of these facilities approximates $340,000 annually.
 
LanVision believes that its facilities are adequate for its current needs and that suitable alternative space is available to accommodate expansion of LanVision’s operations.
 
Item 3.   Legal Proceedings
 
LanVision is, from time to time, a party to various legal proceedings and claims, which arise, in the ordinary course of business from time to time. LanVision is not aware of any legal matters that will have a material adverse effect on LanVision’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

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 LanVision or its competitors, quarterly fluctuations in LanVision’s financial results or other competitors’ financial results, changes in analysts’ estimates of LanVision’s financial performance, general conditions in the healthcare information technology industry and conditions in the financial markets. In addition, the stock market, in general, has experienced price and volume fluctuations which have particularly affected the market price of high technology companies and which have been often unrelated to the operating performance of a specific company. Many technology companies, including LanVision, experience significant 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.
 
(b) According to the stock transfer agent records, LanVision had 200 stockholders of record as of April 3, 2006. Because brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders hold many of such shares, LanVision is unable to determine with complete accuracy the current total number of stockholders represented by these record holders. LanVision estimates that it has approximately 1,900 stockholders, based on information provided by the Company’s stock transfer agent from their search of individual participants in security position listings.
 
(c) LanVision 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.

See also PART 1, ITEM 1, BUSINESS for general and specific descriptions of LanVision’s business.
 
See also PART 1, ITEM 1A RISK FACTORS for a general description of factors that affect LanVision’s business.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies (See also Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements)
 
LanVision’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires LanVision to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, LanVision evaluates its estimates, including those related to product revenues, bad debts, capitalized software development costs, income taxes, warranty obligations, support contracts, contingencies and litigation. LanVision bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that LanVision believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and revenue recognition. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
LanVision believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
LanVision records revenues for customer contracts, including special payment agreements and royalties from third-party resellers in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. Revenue is derived from: the licensing and sale of systems, either directly to end-users or through third-party resellers, comprising internally developed software, third-party software and hardware components; product support, maintenance and professional services; and, application-hosting services that provide high quality, transaction or subscriptions based document imaging/management services from a central data center. Generally, revenues from software license fees and hardware sales to end-users are recognized when a master agreement is signed and products are made available to end-users. Revenues from agreements that contain multiple-element arrangements are allocated to the various elements based on the fair value of the elements. Revenues related to routine installation and integration and project management are deferred until the work is performed. Revenues from consulting, education, and application-hosting services are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from short-term support and maintenance agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the agreements. Billings to customers recorded prior to the recognition of revenue are classified as deferred revenues. Revenues recognized prior to progress billings to customers are recorded as contract receivables.
 
Under the terms of a Remarketing Agreement with IDX Information Systems Corporation, LanVision records this revenue when the products are made available to end-users, which is usually at the same time the royalty report is received from IDX. Royalties are remitted by IDX to LanVision based upon IDX sublicensing LanVision’s software to IDX’s customers. Thirty percent of the royalty is due 45 days following the end of the month in which IDX executes an end-user license agreement with its customer. The remaining seventy percent of the royalty is due from IDX, in varying amounts based on specific milestones, 45 days following the end of the month in which a milestone occurs.
 
Each contract is reviewed quarterly with the appropriate LanVision Client Manager to determine the appropriateness of the revenue recognition criteria applied to the individual contracts based upon the most currently available information as to the status of the contract, the customer comments, if any, and the status of any open or unresolved issues with the customer.
 
Bad Debts
 
Accounts and contract receivables are comprised of amounts owed LanVision for licensed software, professional services, including maintenance services and application-hosting activities. Contracts with individual

Table of Contents

customers and resellers determine when receivables are due. In determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, each unpaid receivable is reviewed quarterly with the appropriate LanVision Client Manager to determine the payment status based upon the most currently available information as to the status of the receivables, the customer comments, if any, and the status of any open or unresolved issues with the customer preventing the payment thereof. Corrective action, if necessary, is taken by LanVision to resolve open issues related to unpaid receivables. During these quarterly reviews, LanVision determines the required allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the unwillingness or inability of its customers or resellers to make required payments. If the financial condition of LanVision’s customers or resellers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. LanVision’s customers typically have been well-established hospitals, medical facilities, or major Healthcare Information Systems companies that resell LanVision’s products, which have good credit histories, and payments have been received within normal time frames for the industry. However, some healthcare facilities have experienced significant operating losses and limited cash resources as a result of limits on third-party reimbursements from insurance companies and governmental entities. Extended payment of LanVision receivables is not uncommon.
 
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. Once technological feasibility has been determined, a portion of the 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. LanVision capitalized approximately $1,450,000, $1,000,000, and $800,000 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
 
Research and development expense, net of capitalized software development expenditures, was $2,733,293, $2,061,207, and $2,053,901 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, 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 approximately $800,000, $633,000, and $500,000 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
 
LanVision reviews, on an on-going basis, the carrying value of its capitalized software development expenditures, net of accumulated amortization. LanVision believes that to replicate the existing software would cost significantly more than the stated net book value of $2,706,697 at January 31, 2006. Over the last three years, LanVision has spent approximately $10,100,000 in research and development, of which $3,250,000, or 32%, has been capitalized. Amortization of capitalized software expenditures during the last three years has amounted to approximately $1,933,000 or a net increase in capitalized software of approximately $1,317,000 during the last three years. Many of the programs related to capitalized software development continue to have great value to LanVision’s current products and those under development, as the concepts, ideas, and software code are readily transferable and are incorporated into new products.
 
Equity Awards
 
The Company is required to adopt the revised standards of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which requires the expensing the fair value of the equity award effective the first quarter of fiscal year 2006. The Company has determined that the impact on future earnings for existing outstanding equity awards is not material. However, future grants of equity awards could have a material impact on reported expenses depending upon the number, value and vesting period of future awards.

Income Taxes
 
The net income tax benefit was $867,361, $455,753, and $456,997, in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The net current deferred tax asset was $601,000 and the non-current deferred tax asset was $1,274,000 at January 31, 2006 and the net current deferred tax asset was $309,000 and the non current deferred tax asset was $669,000 at January 31, 2005. A key assumption in the determination of the book tax benefit or (provision) is the amount of the valuation allowance required to reduce the related deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance reduces the deferred tax assets to a level which will, more likely than not, be realized. Whether the deferred tax assets will be realized depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the deferred tax asset become deductible. The net deferred tax assets reflect management’s estimate of the amount which will, more likely than not, reduce future taxable income.
 
As of January 31, 2006, LanVision believes that a valuation allowance is required to reduce a portion of the deferred tax assets, primarily relating to certain net operating loss carry forwards, for the following reasons:
 
Although LanVision generated approximately $2,348,000 of earnings before income taxes during the three-year period ended January 31, 2006, there can be no assurance that LanVision will be able to neither achieve consistent profitability on a quarterly or annual basis nor be able to sustain or increase its revenue growth in future periods and believes historical operating results may not be indicative of the future performance of LanVision in the near or long-term. LanVision has incurred net losses as indicated by the carry forwards of approximately $28,000,000.
 
Based on the expenses associated with current and planned staffing levels, continued profitability and utilization of carry forwards to be evaluated as “more likely than not” is dependent upon increasing revenues.
 
LanVision’s backlog, and anticipated additions to the backlog, has been trending up over the past three years.
 
As of January 31, 2006, LanVision estimates that a valuation allowance of approximately $8,351,000 was required to reduce the deferred tax assets, primarily relating to loss carry forwards, to a level LanVision currently believes will be utilized to offset future earnings before income taxes based on the current backlog and forecasts over the next two years. The valuation allowance is required due to the inability to predict on a longer term basis that LanVision will “more likely than not” attain levels of profitability required to utilize additional carry forwards.

Capitalized Leases
 
During fiscal year 2005, LanVision acquired additional computer equipment for the application-hosting services data center, which are accounted for as capitalized leases. The amount of the computer equipment leased assets is $267,237. The lease is payable monthly in installments of $8,192, through August 2008. The present value of the future lease payments upon lease inception was $267,237 using the interest rates implicit in the lease agreement at the inception of the lease.
 
Long-term Debt
 
In July 2004, the LanVision entered into a three year working capital term loan agreement. The long-term debt is secured by all of the assets of LanVision and the loan agreement restricts LanVision from incurring additional indebtedness for borrowed money, including capitalized leases, etc. without lender consent. The loan is repayable in two remaining annual installments, and interest is payable quarterly, at the bank prime rate (at year end 7.5%). Also,


25


Table of Contents

LanVision is required to maintain a minimum cash balance equal to the balance of the loan through the earlier of the repayment or maturity of the loan on July 31, 2007. The loan balance at January 31, 2006 was $2,000,000, which is due and payable of not less than $1,000,000 by July 30, 2006 and $1,000,000 by July 30, 2007. The Company can prepay the loan at any time and intends to pay off this loan as soon as practicable.
 
LanVision complied with all of the provisions of its loan agreements during the year, except for two covenants relating to the Fixed Charge Coverage and the maximum capital expenditures at the end of the second quarter. The bank waived the requirements and subsequently removed all of such financial coverage covenants from the loan agreement.
 
In connection with the issuance of the long-term debt in 1998, LanVision issued Warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of Common Stock of LanVision at $3.87 per share at any time through July 16, 2008. The Warrants are subject to customary antidilution and registration rights provisions.
 
Operating Leases
 
LanVision rents office and data center space and equipment under noncancelable operating leases that expire, at various times, during the next five fiscal years. The minimum payments, by year, are detailed in the Contractual Obligations table above.
 
Warranties and Indemnities
 
LanVision provides for the estimated cost of the product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Should products fail to meet certain performance standards for an initial warranty period, LanVision’s estimated warranty liability might need to be increased. LanVision bases its warranty estimates on the nature of any performance complaint, the effort necessary to resolve the issue, customer requirements and any potential concessions which may be required to be granted to a customer which result from performance issues. LanVision’s ASPeN application-hosting services guarantees specific “up-time” and “response time” performance standards, which, if not met may result in reduced revenues, as a penalty, for the month in which the standards are not met. LanVision’s standard agreements with its customers also usually include intellectual property infringement indemnifications provisions to indemnify them from and against third-party claims, and for liabilities, damages, and expenses arising out of LanVision’s operation of its business or any negligent act or omission of LanVision. To date LanVision has always maintained the ASPeN performance standards and has not been required to make any material penalty payments to customers or indemnify any customers for any material third-party claims. At January 31, 2006 and 2005, LanVision has a warranty reserve in the amount of $250,000. Each contract is reviewed quarterly with the appropriate LanVision Client Manager to determine the need for a warranty reserve based upon the most currently available information as to the status of the contract, the customer comments, if any, and the status of any open or unresolved issues with the customer.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
LanVision does not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

(1) Because a significant percentage of the 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 nor are they necessarily indicative of the future operations of LanVision in the near or long-term. 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 commencing on February 1 of that calendar year and ending on January 31 of the following year.
 
(3) Operating profit and net earnings in 2003 include reimbursement of $230,000 in legal expenses upon settlement of LanVision proprietary technology claims; and a $290,000 favorable change in the estimate for certain franchise tax liabilities as a result of the tax authority audit of certain prior year’s tax returns. Operating profit and net earnings in 2004 include a $300,000 reduction in reserves due to a change in estimates.
 
(4) Net earnings in 2005, 2004, and 2003 include a tax benefit of $897,000, $420,000 and $558,000, respectively, relating to the reduction in the valuation allowances for the deferred tax assets relating to the net operating loss carry forward based upon reasonable future earnings before income tax projections.
 
Comparison of fiscal year 2005 with 2004
 
Revenues.  Total revenues for fiscal year 2005 were $16,126,808 compared with revenues of $12,750,658 in fiscal year 2004, an increase of approximately $3,376,000, or 26%. The increase was primarily due to approximately a 391% or $3,587,000 increase in software licensing revenues, and approximately $465,000, or 18% in application hosting revenues, substantially all of which was due to expansion of our systems at existing customers, offset by a decrease of approximately $439,000 in hardware and third party software revenues, and $236,000 in services, maintenance, support and other revenues.

Table of Contents

Revenues from systems sales in fiscal year 2005 were $6,112,727, an increase of $3,147,465, or 106% of systems sales in fiscal year 2004 primarily resulting from the significant increase in software licensing revenues as discussed above.
 
Revenues from services, maintenance, and support in fiscal year 2005 were $6,950,182, a decrease of $236,122 over fiscal year 2004. Professional services revenues in fiscal year 2005 were $1,845,422, a decrease of $121,320, of the professional services revenues in fiscal year 2004. Maintenance and support revenues in fiscal year 2005 were $5,104,760, a decrease of $114,802, over maintenance and support revenues in fiscal year 2004. The decrease in professional services revenues was due to some delays in customer installations. The decrease in maintenance and support results from some discontinuation of support on some items by some customers.
 
Revenues from application-hosting services were $3,063,899 an increase of $464,807, or 18% over fiscal year 2004. The increase was due to increased revenues from existing customers. Application-hosting services revenues at some locations were usage based and fluctuations in admissions, length of stay, return patient visits, etc. affect the system usage and the corresponding application-hosting services revenues.
 
In fiscal year 2005, three customers accounted for 38% of the total revenues compared with 34% in fiscal year 2004, exclusive of our remarketing partners. Total revenues from Siemens were $382,594 in fiscal year 2005 compared with $451,255 in fiscal year 2004 and through IDX, $1,988,412 in fiscal year 2005 compared with $2,760,900 in fiscal 2004. A substantial portion of fiscal year 2005 revenues came from fulfillment of backlog and add-on business, primarily expansion and upgrades of systems for LanVision’s existing customers, and 15% came from resellers, compared with 25% in fiscal year 2004. The decrease in the percentage of revenues from resellers reflect the declining maintenance revenues from Siemens customers and less than expected new system revenues from IDX in 2005.
 
Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales consists of cost of systems sales, cost of services, maintenance and support, and cost of application-hosting services. Cost of systems sales includes amortization of capitalized software expenditures, royalties, and the cost of third-party hardware and software. Cost of systems sales, as a percentage of systems sales, varies from period-to-period depending on hardware and software configurations of the systems sold. The cost of systems sales as a percentage of associated revenues in fiscal year 2005 and 2004 were 37% and 79%, respectively. The lower costs in 2005 reflect a significantly higher volume of LanVision software, with high margins when compared with 2004 when a greater portion of system sales included more hardware and third party software. Cost of services, maintenance, and support includes salaries and benefits for support and professional services personnel and the cost of third-party maintenance contracts. Cost of services, maintenance and support as a percentage of services, maintenance and support revenues in 2005 and 2004 were 45% and 39%, respectively. The higher relative cost reflects increased staffing necessary in providing the services. The cost of application-hosting services in 2005 and 2004 as a percentage of revenues was 34% and 35%, respectively, and represents primarily salaries and benefits, depreciation and the cost of the collocation high security application hosting data center. The decline in the relative cost percentage reflects higher revenues without a corresponding increase in costs as the operating costs are relatively fixed and additional clients do not require a corresponding large increase in operating costs.
 
Selling, General and Administrative.  Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, travel and living expenses, tradeshows, etc. for selling and marketing activities and general corporate and administrative activities. In fiscal year 2005, selling, general, and administrative expenses were $5,218,303 compared with $3,701,443 in fiscal year 2004. The year-to-year increase is primarily attributable to increased sales and marketing staff as the Company expanded its staff to respond to increasing inquiries and sales opportunities, additional expenses for tradeshows, marketing collateral and market costs associated with the re-branding of the Company as “Streamline Health” to strengthen the focus on new market opportunities involving business process improvement via workflow automation technologies, and increased sales commissions and bonus expenses, resulting from increased revenues and operating profits.
 
Product Research and Development.  Product research and development expenses in fiscal year 2005 were $2,733,293 compared with $2,061,207 in fiscal year 2004. During 2005, LanVision increased its technical staff and added additional contractors to concentrate its development efforts primarily on its new products and new workflow

technologies. LanVision capitalized approximately $1,450,000 in software development expenditures in fiscal year 2005, compared with $1,000,000 in 2004.
 
Operating Profit.  Operating profit in fiscal year 2005 was $1,738,322 compared with $935,893 in fiscal year 2004. The $802,429, or 85% increase, results primarily from an approximately $3,587,000 increase in high margin software licensing revenues discussed above notwithstanding the significant increases in operating expenses.
 
Other Income (Expense).  Interest income consists primarily of interest on cash balances. Interest expense in 2005 is related to the current term loan and capitalized leases. The 2004 interest expense includes approximately $784,000 in interest on the unpaid balance of the 1998 long-term debt, and additional interest on the unpaid long-term accrued interest payable relating to the 1998 long-term debt. The decrease in the interest expense in 2005 results primarily from the repayment of the 1998 high interest rate long-term debt and the accrued and unpaid accrued interest relating thereto in July 2004 and replacing it with significantly lower cost debt.
 
Provision for Income Taxes.  LanVision is in a tax loss carry forward position. The tax loss carry forward approximates $28,000,000, which begins to expire in 2013. LanVision also has an Alternative Minimum Tax credit carry forward of approximately $74,000, which has an unlimited carry forward period. The income tax provision in fiscal years 2005 and 2003 includes the Alternative Minimum Tax paid by the Company, as all income could not be offset against the Alternative Minimum Tax loss carry forward. In fiscal year 2005, 2004, and 2003 LanVision recorded a tax benefit in the amount of $897,000, $420,000, and $558,000, respectively, as a result of a reduction in the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets relating primarily to the tax loss carry forward based on future earnings before income tax projections.
 
Net Earnings.  Net earnings in fiscal year 2005 were $2,551,072 compared with net earnings of $557,676 in fiscal year 2004. The increase results primarily from increased software revenues and partially offset by higher operating expenses, combined with lower interest expense for fiscal year 2005 as a result of the repayment of the high interest rate debt in July 2004 and the increased tax benefit, as a result of the adjustment of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
 
The increase in accounts and contract receivables, both current and non-current is due to the significant licensing revenues recorded in January 2006. The payment terms also include deferred payments due in fiscal 2007.
 
The increase in property and equipment, net is due to the relocation and expansion of the office facilities to accommodate the increased staff, and additional computer equipment for the Application-hosting data center in fiscal 2005.
 
The increase in accounts payable is due to the sale of third party hardware and software in January 2006, which was not paid for until fiscal 2006.
 
The increase in accrued compensation is due to an increase in accrued commissions on significantly increased fourth quarter revenues and increased accrued bonuses as a result of the Company meeting its annual Operating Profit threshold for the payment of bonuses in fiscal 2005. The Company paid no such Operating Profit bonuses in fiscal 2004 as the Operating Profit threshold was not met.
 
Comparison of fiscal year 2004 with 2003
 
Revenues.  Total revenues for fiscal year 2004 were $12,750,658 compared with revenues of $12,803,534 in fiscal year 2003, a decrease of $52,876. The decrease was primarily caused by a decrease of approximately: $1,900,000 in software licensing revenues, substantially all of which was due to our major reseller who sublicensed only one new system in fiscal 2004, offset by increases of approximately $656,500 in hardware revenues, $534,300 in services, maintenance and support revenues and $656,300 in application hosting revenues.
 
Revenues from systems sales in fiscal year 2004 were $2,965,262, a decrease of $1,243,493 or 29% of systems sales in fiscal year 2003 primarily resulting from the decline in software licensing revenues as discussed above.
 
Revenues from services, maintenance, and support in fiscal year 2004 were $7,186,304, an increase of $534,351 or 8% over fiscal year 2003. Professional services revenues in fiscal year 2004 were $1,966,742, an increase of $27,236, or 1% of the professional services revenues in fiscal year 2003. Maintenance and support

Table of Contents

revenues in fiscal year 2004 were $5,219,562, an increase of $507,115, or 11% over maintenance and support revenues in fiscal year 2003. The increase in maintenance and support revenues in fiscal year 2004 is primarily due to new installations and expansion of existing LanVision client systems, offset by some reductions in maintenance as some customers transitioned to non-LanVision systems.
 
Revenues from application-hosting services were $2,599,092 an increase of $656,266, or 34% over fiscal year 2003. Approximately 30% of the increase was due to the addition of one new application-hosting services clients in the first quarter of fiscal year 2004, and 70% represented increased revenues from existing customers. Application-hosting services revenues at some locations were usage based and fluctuations in admissions, length of stay, return patient visits, etc. affect the system usage and the corresponding application-hosting services revenues.
 
In fiscal year 2004, three customers accounted for 34% of the total revenues compared with 23% in fiscal year 2003, exclusive of our remarketing partners. Total revenues from Siemens were $451,255 in fiscal year 2004 compared with $631,359 in fiscal year 2003 and through IDX, $2,760,900 in fiscal year 2004 compared with $3,905,530 in fiscal 2003. Approximately 75% of fiscal year 2004 revenues came from fulfillment of backlog and add-on business, primarily expansion and upgrades of systems for LanVision’s existing and new clients, and 25% came from resellers, compared with 65% and 35%, respectively in fiscal year 2003.
 
Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales consists of cost of systems sales, cost of services, maintenance and support and cost of application-hosting services. Cost of systems sales includes amortization of capitalized software expenditures, royalties, and the cost of third-party hardware and software. Cost of systems sales, as a percentage of systems sales, varies from period-to-period depending on hardware and software configurations of the systems sold. The cost of systems sales as a percentage of associated revenues in fiscal year 2004 and 2003 were 79% and 38%, respectively. The higher costs in 2004 reflect a significantly higher volume of hardware and third-party components, with lower margins. Cost of services, maintenance, and support includes salaries and benefits for support and professional services personnel and the cost of third-party maintenance contracts. Cost of services, maintenance and support as a percentage of services, maintenance and support revenues in 2004 and 2003 were 39% and 41%, respectively. The lower relative cost reflects greater efficiencies in providing the service. The cost of application-hosting services in 2004 and 2003 as a percentage of revenues was 35% and 46%, respectively, and represents primarily salaries and benefits, depreciation and the cost of the collocation high security application hosting data center. The decline in the relative cost percentage reflects higher revenues without a corresponding increase in costs as the operating costs are relatively fixed and additional clients do not require a corresponding large increase in operating costs.
 
Selling, General and Administrative.  Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, travel and living expenses, tradeshows, etc. for selling and marketing activities and general corporate and administrative activities. In fiscal year 2004, selling, general, and administrative expenses were $3,701,443 compared with $3,158,239 in fiscal year 2003. The year-to-year increase is primarily attributable to increased sales and marketing staff as the Company expands its staff to respond to increasing inquiries and sales opportunities, additional expenses for tradeshows, marketing collateral and market costs associated with the re-branding of the Company as “Streamline Health” to strengthen the focus on new market opportunities involving business process improvement via workflow automation technologies.
 
Product Research and Development.  Product research and development expenses in fiscal year 2004 were $2,061,207 compared with $2,053,901 in fiscal year 2003. During 2004, LanVision concentrated its development efforts primarily on its new patient financial services products and new workflow technologies. LanVision capitalized approximately $1,000,000 in software development expenditures in fiscal year 2004, compared with $800,000 in 2003.
 
Operating Profit.  Operating profit in fiscal year 2004 was $935,893 compared with $2,353,652 in fiscal year 2003. The $1,417,759 decrease, results primarily from a decrease of approximately $1,900,000 in software licensing revenues discussed above.
 
Other Income (Expense).  Interest income consists primarily of interest on cash balances. Interest expense in 2004 and 2003 is related primarily to interest on the unpaid balance of the 1998 long-term debt, additional interest on the unpaid long-term accrued interest payable relating to the 1998 long-term debt, and capitalized leases. The


30


Table of Contents

decrease in the interest expense in 2004 results primarily from the repayment of the 1998 high interest rate long-term debt and the accrued and unpaid accrued interest relating thereto in July 2004 and replacing it with significantly lower cost debt. The interest expense on the 1998 long-term debt decreased approximately $1,035,000 in 2004 when compared to 2003. Interest on the replacement working capital debt was approximately $100,000.
 
Provision for Income Taxes.  LanVision is in a tax loss carry forward position. In fiscal year 2004 and 2003, LanVision recorded a tax benefit in the amount of $420,000 and $558,000, respectively, as a result of a reduction in the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets relating primarily to the tax loss carry forward based on future earnings before income tax projections.
 
Net Earnings.  Net earnings in fiscal year 2004 were $557,676 compared with net earnings of $1,019,166 in fiscal year 2003. The decline, results primarily from decreased software revenues and higher operating expenses, offset by lower interest expense for the year as a result of the repayment of the high interest rate debt in July 2004.
 
Backlog
 
At January 31, 2006, LanVision has master agreements, purchase orders or royalty reports from remarketing partners for systems and related services (excluding support and maintenance, and transaction-based application-hosting revenues), which have not been delivered, installed which, if fully performed, would generate future revenues of approximately $4,159,000 compared with $2,913,000 at January 31, 2005. The related products and services are expected to be delivered over the next two to three years. The increase in the backlog is the result of signing new agreements with existing customers late in the fourth quarter of 2005 for the expansion of their systems. In addition, customers contract for maintenance and support services on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis. At January 31, 2006 LanVision had maintenance agreements, purchase orders, or royalty reports from remarketing partners for maintenance, which if fully performed, will generate future revenues of approximately $3,533,000, compared with $2,242,000 at January 31, 2005, through their respective renewal dates in fiscal year 2006 and 2007. The increase results from the addition of new customers. In 2005, maintenance and support revenues approximated $5,104,000 compared with $5,220,000 in 2004 and are expected to increase in fiscal year 2006. At January 31, 2006, LanVision has entered into application-hosting agreements, which are expected to generate revenues in excess of $4,784,000 through their respective renewal dates in fiscal years 2006 and 2007. The application-hosting backlog is higher than the $2,148,000 in 2004 as the multi year agreements were renewed, the most significant of which was renewed during the first quarter of fiscal 2005.
 
Revenues from the IDX Remarketing Agreement for the last three years amounted to approximately $8,654,000, or 21% of the total revenues for the last three fiscal years. LanVision relies on IDX for a significant amount of its revenues, the loss of which would have a material adverse affect on future results of operations.
 
LanVision believes a greater percentage of its future revenues will come from remarketing agreements with, IDX, and other HIS related vendors. LanVision continues to actively pursue remarketing agreements with other companies.
 
LanVision believes the large HIS vendors, hospitals and integrated healthcare delivery networks now have a better understanding of the valuable role the EMR plays in providing a truly Computerized Patient Record and the benefits of such systems in developing advanced workflow solutions. As more healthcare providers become aware of and better understand the significant economic and operating benefits of the EMR and other imaging/management and workflow applications, LanVision believes the future demand for its products and services will increase.
 
Many companies have emerged to provide healthcare applications through private Intranets or secure applications on the Internet. Additionally, the traditional HIS companies have developed clinical information systems for the Internet. LanVision’s applications are well suited for integration with such clinical systems and are optimized for use on the Internet and private Intranets. Through LanVision’s ASPeN Services, application-hosting customers can rapidly deploy and access healthcare information using Web browser-based technology from a central data center on a per transaction or subscription basis thereby minimizing up-front capital expenditures. LanVision believes healthcare organizations will continue to increase their use of healthcare applications through

Table of Contents

the Internet, and LanVision’s products are an integral part of providing a complete EMR across the Internet. LanVision continues to actively pursue strategic relationships with other healthcare Application Service Providers.
 
Management believes that revenue growth can be fueled by: the expansion of our sales force and marketing efforts, the repositioning and re-branding of the Company, an increase in incremental revenue from existing and new strategic distribution partners, an increase in interest by healthcare organizations in LanVision products and services to assist in compliance with the Federal HIPAA standards as they relate to the confidentiality and security of medical records, and incremental new revenues derived from new lines of business for LanVision in the remote coding, revenue cycle and other workflows for the hospital marketplace. The revenue cycle workflows are a logical extension of the product line because of the ability of the Financial Services departments of hospitals to access and process patient information from the EMR. Due to an acute shortage of available coding personnel, there currently exists a great demand for solutions to attract and retain qualified coders and to make the coding process more efficient.
 
Since commencing operations in 1989, LanVision has incurred substantial cumulative operating losses. Although LanVision achieved operating profitability during the last six years, LanVision incurred net losses in most fiscal years prior to fiscal year 2000. Based upon the expenses associated with current and planned staffing levels, continued profitability is dependent upon increasing revenues. Although the Company believes that it can continue to be profitable, there can be no assurance that LanVision will be able to neither achieve consistent profitability on a quarterly or annual basis nor be able to sustain or increase its revenue growth in future periods and believes historical operating results may not be indicative of the future performance of LanVision in the near or long-term.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
During the last five fiscal years, LanVision has funded its operations, working capital needs, and capital expenditures primarily from a combination of cash generated by operations, and a $3,500,000 2004 bank loan. LanVision’s liquidity is dependent upon numerous factors to include: the timing and amount of revenues and collection of contractual amounts from customers, amounts invested in research and development, capital expenditures, and the level of operating expenses, all of which can vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter.
 
LanVision’s customers typically have been well-established hospitals or medical facilities or major HIS companies that resell LanVision’s products which have good credit histories and payments have been received within normal time frames for the industry. However, some healthcare organizations have experienced significant operating losses as a result of limits on third-party reimbursements from insurance companies and governmental entities. Agreements with customers often involve significant amounts and contract terms typically require customers to make progress payments.
 
LanVision has no significant obligations for capital resources, other than its $2,000,000 of long-term debt, the noncancelable operating leases of approximately $1,618,000 payable over the next five years and capitalized leases of approximately $254,000, payable over the next three years. Capital expenditures for property and equipment in 2006 are not expected to exceed $500,000.
 
During the last three years, LanVision has expended approximately $1,566,000 for capital expenditures, increased its sales and marketing expenses, product research and development and support and consulting expenses, and made net debt and deferred interest repayments of approximately $6,625,000. This resulted in significant net cash outlays over the last three years. Although LanVision reduced staffing levels and related expenses during 2003 and 2004, the stringent expense controls and reduced staffing, caused by the necessity to retire the long-term debt, hampered the growth of revenues in fiscal year 2003 and 2004. Accordingly, to continue to achieve increasing revenues and profitability it was necessary for the Company to significantly increase the sales and marketing expenses in fiscal 2005 and will continue to do so in 2006. The Company believes that this strategic initiative to expand sales and marketing should produce improved results in late 2006 and beyond as the expanded sales and marketing efforts begin to produce results. However, there can be no assurance LanVision will be able to do so.
 
At January 31, 2006, LanVision had cash of $4,634,219. Under the terms of its loan agreement, as amended, LanVision has agreed to maintain a minimum cash balance equal to the balance of the long term debt (currently


32


Table of Contents

$2,000,000, of which $1,000,000 is repayable on July 31, 2006) through the earlier of the repayment or maturity of the loan on July 31, 2007. The current loan can be repaid at any time without penalty.
 
LanVision has carefully monitored operating expenses during the last five fiscal years. Notwithstanding the current levels of revenues and operating profit, for the foreseeable future, LanVision will need to continually assess its revenue prospects compared to its then current expenditure levels. If it does not appear likely that revenues will increase, it may be necessary to reduce operating expenses or raise cash through additional borrowings, the sale of assets, or other equity financing. Certain of these actions will require current lender approval. However, there can be no assurance LanVision will be successful in any of these efforts. If it is necessary to significantly reduce operating expenses, this could have an adverse effect on future operating performance.
 
LanVision believes that its present cash position, combined with cash generation currently anticipated from operations, will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements for the short term. However, continued expansion of the Company in 2006 will require additional resources. The Company may need to refinance its current debt, obtain an additional infusion of capital, or a combination of both, depending on the extent of the expansion of the Company and future revenues. However, there can be no assurance LanVision will be able to do so.
 
To date, inflation has not had a material impact on LanVision’s revenues or expenses.
 
Net cash provided by operations in fiscal 2005 exceeded $2,700,000, down from approximately $3,200,000 in the prior fiscal year primarily because of the increase in receivables resulting from increased fourth quarter revenues. Cash was used in fiscal 2004 primarily for financing activities, primarily the repayment of debt. Future cash flow from operations is dependent upon revenues and the terms and conditions relating to the timing of payments of new agreements. In 2006, the Company intends to invest in additional operating expenses which will reduce the amount of cash flow from operations available for investing and financing activities.
 
Item 7A.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
LanVision currently invests its cash balances, in excess of its current needs in an interest bearing account. LanVision does not invest for the purposes of trading in securities. Additionally, LanVision does not have any significant market risk exposure at January 31, 2006.

REPORT OF REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Board of Directors
LanVision Systems, Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LanVision Systems, Inc. as of January 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule of LanVision Systems, Inc. listed in item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of LanVision Systems, Inc. at January 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth herein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.   Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
LanVision Systems, Inc. (the Company) operates in one segment as a provider of Healthcare Information Technology through the licensing of its Electronic Medical Record, Patient Financial Services and other Workflow software applications and the use of such applications through its application-hosting services as an Application Service Provider. LanVision’s products enable hospitals and integrated healthcare delivery systems in the United States to capture, store, manage, route, retrieve, and process vast amounts of patient clinical, financial and other healthcare provider information.
 
Fiscal Year
 
All references to a fiscal year refer to the fiscal year 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, LanVision recorded a $300,000 favorable change in the estimate for the allowance for doubtful accounts and miscellaneous reserves. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003, LanVision recorded a $290,000 favorable change in the estimate for certain franchise tax liabilities as a result of the tax authority audit of certain prior year’s tax returns. In fiscal years 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company made certain estimates of its future earnings before income taxes in determining the amount of the valuation allowance required for the deferred income tax assets relating to the net operating loss carry forward. (See Note 4.)
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is derived from: the licensing and sale of systems, either directly to end-users or through third-party resellers, comprising internally developed software, third-party software and hardware components; product support, maintenance and professional services; and application-hosting services that provide high quality, transaction or subscription based document imaging/management services from a central data center. LanVision’s revenue recognition policies conform to Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. Generally, revenue from software license fees and hardware sales to end-users is recognized when a master agreement is signed and products are made available to end-users. Revenues from agreements that contain multiple-element arrangements are allocated to the various elements based on the fair value of the elements. Revenues related to routine installation and integration and project management are deferred until the work is performed. LanVision follows this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the revenues and costs applicable to various stages of a contract can be made. Revenues from consulting, education, and application-hosting services are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from short-term support and maintenance agreements are recognized ratably over the term of the agreements. Billings to customers recorded prior to the recognition of revenues are classified as deferred revenues. Revenues recognized prior to progress billings to customers are recorded as contract receivables.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and overnight deposits. The long-term debt agreement (See Note 3) requires LanVision to maintain a minimum cash balance equal the balance of the loan through the earlier of the repayment or maturity of the loan in July, 2007.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 
Receivables
 
Accounts and contract receivables are comprised of amounts owed LanVision for licensed software, professional services, including maintenance services and application-hosting activities and are net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $200,000 at January 31, 2006 and January 31, 2005, respectively. Contracts with individual customers and resellers determine when receivables are due. In determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, each unpaid receivable is reviewed quarterly with the appropriate LanVision Client Manager to determine the payment status based upon the most currently available information as to the status of the receivables, the customer comments, if any, and the status of any open or unresolved issues with the customer preventing the payment thereof. Corrective action, if necessary, is taken by LanVision to resolve open issues related to unpaid receivables. During these quarterly reviews, LanVision determines the required allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the unwillingness or inability of its customers or resellers to make required payments.
 
Concentrations
 
Financial instruments, which potentially expose LanVision 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 accounts receivable. LanVision’s accounts receivable are concentrated in the healthcare industry. However, LanVision’s customers typically have been well-established hospitals, medical facilities, or major Health Information Systems companies that resell LanVision’s products that have good credit histories and payments have been received within normal time frames for the industry. However, some hospitals and medical facilities have experienced significant operating losses as a result of limits on third-party reimbursements from insurance companies and governmental entities and extended payment of receivables from these entities is not uncommon.
 
To date, LanVision has relied on a limited number of customers and remarketing partners for a substantial portion of its total revenues. LanVision expects that a significant portion of its future revenues will continue to be generated by a limited number of customers and its remarketing partners. The failure to obtain new customers or expand sales through remarketing partners, the loss of existing customers or reduction in revenues from existing customers could materially and adversely affect LanVision’s operating results (See Note 6).
 
LanVision currently buys all of its hardware and some major software components of its Healthcare Information 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 could adversely affect operating results.
 
Other Current Assets
 
Other current assets are primarily: prepaid insurance, commissions, maintenance, deposits, deferred Federal income tax assets relating to the net operating loss carryforward and prepaid expenses related to future revenues. (See Note 4).
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line depreciation, over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
 
         
Computer equipment and software
    3-4 years  
Office equipment
    5 years  
Office furniture and fixtures
    7 years  
Leasehold improvements
    Life of lease

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 
In 2005, LanVision entered into a sixty-six month operating lease for office space. In connection with the lease, the property owned provided certain lease inducements to the company, including a $326,000 build out allowance and use of the premises for six months rent free. The company has accounted for the value of these inducements by recording the build out allowance as a leasehold improvement with a corresponding lease incentive liability. The total amount of the lease payments are amortized as rent expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. The leasehold improvement asset and the lease incentive liability are each amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the lease to depreciation and as an offset to rent expense, respectively.
 
Any timing differences between the actual monthly lease payments and the straight line rent expense is recorded an adjustment to the lease incentive liability.
 
Depreciation expense for 2005, 2004, and 2003 was $670,655, $514,149, and $534,499, respectively.
 
Leased computer equipment and software meeting certain criteria are capitalized and the present value of the related lease payments is recorded as a liability. Depreciation of the capitalized lease assets is computed on the straight-line method over the term of the lease.
 
Normal repair and maintenance is expensed as incurred. Replacements are capitalized and the property and equipment accounts are relieved of the items being replaced or disposed of, or if no longer of value. The related cost and accumulated deprecation of the disposed assets are eliminated and any gain or loss on disposition is included in the results of operations in the year of disposal.
 
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. Once technological feasibility has been determined, a portion of the 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. LanVision capitalized approximately $1,450,000, $1,000,000, and $800,000 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
 
Research and development expense, net of capitalized amounts, was $2,733,293, $2,061,207, and $2,053,901 in 2005, 2004 and 2003, 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 approximately $800,000, $633,000, and $500,000 in 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.
 
Other non-current assets
 
Other non-current assets at January 31, 2006 and 2005 consist primarily of deferred tax assets relating to the net operating loss carry forwards (See Note 4).
 
Accrued Other Expenses
 
Accrued other expenses at January 31, 2006, and 2005 include warranty reserves, accrued franchise and property taxes, professional fees and other similar liabilities.
 
Income Taxes
 
The provisions for income taxes are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under the asset and liability method of Statement 109, deferred

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

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.
 
Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, establishes a fair value method of financial accounting and reporting for stock-based compensation plans. LanVision 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. At January 31, 2006 LanVision had two stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully disclosed in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in the net earnings, as all options granted under the plans had exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The table below illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings per share as if LanVision had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, to stock-based employee compensation.
 
The Company is required to adopt the revised standards of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, effective the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, which requires expensing the fair value of the equity awards. Based on the number of stock-based compensation equity awards currently outstanding, the impact on operating expense in fiscal year 2006 is not expected to be material in amount. However, future grants of equity awards could have a material impact on reported expenses depending upon the number, value and vesting period of future awards.
 
Pro forma information regarding the net earnings and net earnings per common share is required by the current Statement 123, and has been determined as if LanVision 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 year 2005 risk-free interest rate of 4.25%, 2004 risk-free interest rate of 4.25%, and 2003 risk-free interest rate of 2.50%; a dividend yield of zero percent; a volatility factor of the expected market price of LanVision’s Common Stock of .842 in 2005, .864 in 2004, and .916 in 2003 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 that 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 LanVision’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 LanVision’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock options.

Net Earnings Per Common Share
 
The net earnings per common share are computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per Share. The basic net earnings per common share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The diluted net earnings per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if Stock Options, Stock Purchase Plan commitments and Warrants were exercised into Common Stock, under certain circumstances, that then would share in the earnings of LanVision.
 
The following is the calculation of the basic and diluted net earnings per share of common stock.

2.   Operating Leases
 
LanVision rents office and data center space and equipment under noncancelable operating leases that expire at various times through fiscal year 2010. Future minimum lease payments under noncancelable operating leases for the next five fiscal years are approximately as follows: 2006, $396,000; 2007, $363,000; 2008, $350,000; 2009, $342,000; 2010, $165,000 each year. Rent expense was approximately $287,000, $253,000, and $229,000 for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. In February 2005, LanVision entered into a sixty-six month lease for office space. In connection with the lease, the property owner provided a $326,000 build out allowance. As a further inducement to rent the facilities, the owner provided the Company with the use of the premises for six months rent free. The Company pays a base rent and a proportional amount of the building operating expenses, currently estimated at approximately $285,000 per year. The Lease has no renewal provisions and predetermined increases in the base rent in 2007 and again in 2009.
 
3.   Long-term Debt and Capitalized Leases
 
In July 2004, LanVision entered into a three-year working capital term loan agreement. The long-term debt of $2,000,000 is secured by all of the assets of LanVision and the loan agreement restricts LanVision from incurring additional indebtedness for borrowed money, including capitalized leases, etc. without lender consent. The loan is repayable in two remaining annual installments, which are due and payable of not less than $1,000,000 by July 30, 2006 and $1,000,000 by July 30, 2007 and interest is payable quarterly, at the bank prime rate (at year-end 7.5%). In addition, LanVision is required to maintain a minimum cash balance equal to the amount of the loan through the earlier of the repayment or maturity of the loan on July 30, 2007. LanVision complied with all of the provisions of its loan agreements during the period, except for two covenants relating to the Fixed Charge Coverage and the maximum capital expenditures at the end of the second quarter. The bank waived the requirements and subsequently removed all of such financial coverage covenants from the loan agreement.
 
In 1998, LanVision issued a $6,000,000 note. In connection with the issuance of the note, LanVision issued Warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of Common Stock of LanVision at $3.87 per share at any time through July 16, 2008. The Warrants are subject to customary antidilution and registration rights provisions.
 
LanVision believes the fair market value of the long-term debt approximates the carrying value based on the term, interest rate and maturity that LanVision believes is currently available to it.
 
During the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, LanVision acquired additional computer equipment for the application-hosting services data center, which are accounted for as capitalized leases. The amount of the computer equipment leased assets is $267,237. The lease is payable monthly in installments of $8,192, through August 2008. The present value of the future lease payments upon lease inception was $267,237 using the interest rates implicit in the lease agreement at the inception of the lease.

4.   Income Taxes
 
In 2005 and 2003, LanVision was subject to Alternative Minimum Taxes.
 
The income tax benefit (provision) for income taxes differs from the Federal statutory rate as follows:

Federal and state income tax benefit
  $ 867,361     $ 455,753     $ 456,997  
                         
 
During fiscal year 2003, LanVision determined that a portion of the Federal net operating loss carry forward would not be recognized totaling $2,058,394 ($888,822 tax-benefit). An adjustment of $888,822 was required to


45


Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

record the net operating loss carry forward deferred tax asset to the appropriate amount. As the net operating loss carry forward had a full valuation allowance recorded in the prior year, there was no impact on the Consolidated Statement of Income in 2003 resulting from this adjustment; however, the adjustment is a component of the 2003 effective tax rate reconciliation.
 
LanVision provides deferred income taxes for temporary differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting and income tax purposes. The income tax effects of these temporary differences are as follows:
 
                 
    Fiscal Year  
    2005     2004  
 
Temporary items:
               
Net operating loss carry forwards
  $ 9,827,661     $ 10,274,019  
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
    299,080       392,993

    25,345

    73,597       48,008  
                 
      10,225,683       10,715,020  
Less valuation allowance
    (8,350,683 )     (9,735,034 )
                 
Net deferred tax assets
    1,875,000       979,986

Equipment
          (1,986 )
                 
Net deferred tax asset
  $ 1,875,000     $ 978,000  
                 
 
In all fiscal years prior to 2003, LanVision established a full valuation allowance against all of the deferred tax assets. As of January 31, 2006, LanVision reduced the valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets primarily related to the carry forward by $1,875,000 based upon reasonable future earnings before income tax projections. A valuation allowance of $8,350,683 is still required to reduce the deferred tax assets, primarily relating to loss carry forwards, to a level currently believed will be utilized to offset future earnings before income taxes based upon the current backlog and forecasts over the next two years. The valuation allowance is required due to the inability to predict on a longer term basis that LanVision will “more likely than not” attain levels of profitability required to utilize additional loss carry forwards.
 
At January 31, 2006, LanVision had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $28,000,000, which begins to expire in 2013. LanVision also has an Alternative Minimum Tax credit carry forward of approximately $74,000, which has an unlimited carry forward period. Certain changes in stock ownership can result in a limitation on the amount of net operating loss carry forward that can be utilized each year.
 
5.   Retirement Plan
 
LanVision has established a 401(k) retirement plan that covers all employees. Company contributions to the plan may be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. To date, no Company contributions have been made to the plan. However, effective February 1, 2006, the Company began to match 100% up to the first 4% of compensation deferred by each employee in the 401(k) plan.
 
6.   Major Customers
 
During fiscal year 2005, three customers, exclusive of our remarketing partners, accounted for 18%, 11%, and 10% of total revenues. During fiscal year 2004, three customers, exclusive of our remarketing partners, accounted for 13%, 13%, and 7% of total revenues. During fiscal year 2003, three customers, exclusive of our remarketing partners, accounted for 12%, 6%, and 5% of total revenues. At January 31, 2006 and 2005, 60% and 40%, respectively, of LanVision’s accounts receivable were due from three customers excluding remarketing partners. At

January 31, 2006 and 2005 approximately, 6% and 30%, respectively, of LanVision’s accounts receivables were due from remarketing partners.
 
7.   Stock Compensation Plans
 
LanVision’s 1996 Employee Stock Option Plan authorized the grant of options to employees for LanVision’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. At January 31, 2006, options to purchase 421,167 shares of LanVision’s Common Stock have been granted and are outstanding under the Plan. No more options can be granted under this Plan.
 
LanVision’s 1996 Non-Employee Directors Stock Option Plan authorized the grant of options for shares of LanVision’s Common Stock. The options granted have terms of ten years or less, and vest and become fully exercisable ratably over three years of continuous service as a Director from the date of grant. At January 31, 2006, options to purchase 15,000 shares of LanVision Common Stock have been granted and are outstanding under the Plan. No more options can be granted under this Plan.
 
In May 2005, the shareholders approved the 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan which authorizes the Company to issue up to 1,000,000 equity awards (Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights (“SAR’s”), and Restricted Stock) to directors and employees of the Company. At January 31, 2006, Options to purchase 40,000 shares of LanVision Common Stock have been granted and 25,000 performance based SAR’s have been granted and are outstanding under the Plan.
 
SAR’s are settled in Common Stock of the Company. Upon exercise of the SAR, the holder is entitled to receive shares of Common Stock equal to an amount determined by multiplying:
 
(a) The difference between the fair market value of a share of common stock of the Company on the date of exercise over the price at the date of grant; by
 
(b) The number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised.

The SAR’s vest when certain performance criteria are met. The performance objectives are such that the recipient earns 100% or 0% of the number of SAR’s granted. Performance based SAR expense is recognized over the performance period based on the stock price at each reporting date, when satisfaction of the performance criteria is deemed probable. As the performance criteria as of January 31, 2005 was not deemed probable, no expense was recognized in 2005.
 
The 1996 Employee Stock Option Plan and the 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan contains change of control provisions whereby any outstanding equity awards under the plans subject to vesting, which have not fully vested as of the date of the change in control, shall automatically vest and become immediately exercisable. One of the change in control provisions is deemed to occur if there is a change in beneficial ownership, or authority to vote, directly or indirectly, securities representing 20% or more of the total of all of LanVision’s then outstanding voting securities, unless through a transaction arranged by, or consummated with the prior approval of the Board of Directors. Other change in control provisions relate to mergers and acquisitions or a determination of change in control by LanVision’s Board of Directors.
 
8.   Employee Stock Purchase Plan
 
LanVision has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under which employees may purchase up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock. Under the plan, eligible employees may elect to contribute, through payroll deductions, up to 10% of their base pay to a trust during any plan year, July 1 through June 30, of the following year. At June 30 of each year, the plan issues for the benefit of the employees shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (a) 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on July 1, of the prior year, or (b) 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on June 30, of the current year. At January 31, 2006, 366,525 shares remain that can be purchased under the plan.
 
During fiscal year 2005, 12,006 shares were purchased at the price of $2.26 per share; 2004, 21,468 shares were purchased at the price of $1.66 per share; and in 2003, 18,061 shares were purchased at the price of $1.68 per share.
 
The purchase price at June 30, 2006, will be 85% of the lower of (a) the closing price on July 1, 2005 ($2.66) or (b) 85% of the closing price on June 30, 2006.
 
9.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
Maintenance Agreements, Warranties, and Indemnities
 
LanVision warrants to customers that its software will meet certain performance requirements for an initial limited warranty period. LanVision has maintenance agreements to provide services in future periods after the expiration of the initial limited warranty period. LanVision invoices customers in accordance with the agreements

Table of Contents

 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

and records the invoicing as deferred revenues and recognizes the revenues ratably over the term of the maintenance agreements. LanVision’s standard agreements with its customers usually include intellectual property infringement indemnification provisions to indemnify them from and against third-party claims, and for liabilities, damages, and expenses arising out of LanVision’s operation of its business or any negligent act or omission of LanVision.
 
Application-hosting Services
 
LanVision enters into long-term agreements to provide document imaging/management and workflow services to its healthcare customers on an outsourced basis from a central data center. LanVision guarantees specific “up-time” and “response time” performance standards, which, if not met may result in reduced revenues, as a penalty, for the month in which the standards are not met.
 
Employment Agreements
 
LanVision has entered into employment agreements with its officers and employees that generally provide annual salary, a minimum bonus, discretionary bonus, stock incentive provisions, and severance arrangements.
 
Reserved Common Stock
 
LanVision has reserved 1,802,692 shares of the Common Stock authorized for issuance in connection with various Equity Award Plans and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and 750,000 shares for the Warrants issued in connection with the 1998 long-term debt.
 
Litigation
 
There are, from time to time, claims pending against LanVision and its subsidiary. Based on a review of such litigation with legal counsel, LanVision believes any resulting liability would not have a material affect on LanVision’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

No change in LanVision’s auditors has taken place within the twenty-four months prior to, or in any period subsequent to, LanVision’s January 31, 2006 Financial Statements.
 
Item 9A.   Controls and Procedures
 
LanVision maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that there is reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in LanVision’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to LanVision’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-14(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of LanVision’s senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of LanVision’s disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, LanVision’s management, including the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that there is reasonable assurance that LanVision’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report and there have been no material changes in LanVision’s internal control or in the other controls during the quarter ended January 31, 2006 that could materially affect, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal controls over financial reporting.
