NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2002 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of Viewpoint Corporations (Viewpoint or the Company) financial position and operating results for the interim periods.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and notes normally provided in annual financial statements. As a result, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, contained in Viewpoints annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002 or any other future periods.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2002 presentation.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue recognition rules for software companies are very complex. We follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue; however, certain judgments affect the application of our revenue policy.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, and Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101 Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.
Viewpoint generates revenues through two sources: (a) software licenses and (b) services. License revenues are generated from licensing the rights to use our products directly to end-users and indirectly through value added resellers (VARs). Service revenues are generated from fee-based professional services, sales of customer support services (maintenance contracts), and training services performed for customers that license our products.
License revenue includes sales of perpetual and term-based licenses for broadcasting digital content in the Viewpoint format, and limited licenses for its digital content library. License revenue is recognized over the term of the license in a term-based broadcast license model and up-front in a perpetual broadcast license model, providing that no significant vendor obligations remain and the resulting receivable is deemed collectible by management.
Fee-based professional services are performed on a time-and-material basis or on a fixed-fee basis, under separate service arrangements. Revenues related to these services are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis in accordance with the provisions of SOP 81-1 Accounting For Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Percentage-of-completion for service contracts is measured principally by the percentage of costs incurred and accrued to date for each contract to the estimated total cost for each contract at completion. Revenues from customer support services are recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Revenues from training services are recognized as services are performed.
Standard terms for license agreements call for payment within 90 days. Probability of collection is based upon the assessment of the customers financial condition through the review of their current financial statements or credit

VIEWPOINT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
reports. For follow-on sales to existing customers, prior payment history is also used to evaluate probability of collection. Our agreements with customers do not contain product return rights.
Fees from licenses sold together with fee-based professional services are generally recognized upon delivery of the software, provided that the payment of the license fees are not dependent upon the performance of the services, and the services are not essential to the functionality of the licensed software. If the services are essential to the functionality of the software or payment of the license fees are dependent upon the performance of the services, both the software license and service fees are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting.
If the fee is not fixed or determinable, revenue is recognized as payments become due from the customer. If a nonstandard acceptance period is required, revenues are recognized upon the earlier of customer acceptance or the expiration of the acceptance period.
The Company periodically enters into nonmonetary arrangements whereby the Companys licenses or services are exchanged for services of its customers. Nonmonetary revenue is recognized at the estimated fair value of the services received. Generally, nonmonetary revenues equal nonmonetary expenses; however, due to timing, nonmonetary accounts receivable and accounts payable may result.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The statement requires entities to record the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which it is incurred. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). This Statement requires recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred, as opposed to when the entity commits to an exit plan under EITF No. 94-3. SFAS No. 146 is to be applied prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
2. Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares related to stock options totaling 7,763,098 and 8,598,934 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and 8,943,000 and 8,599,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share because their effect was antidilutive.
Basic and diluted net loss per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, include the effect of 744,740 shares issued to Computer Associates International, Inc. (Computer Associates) on June 24, 2002, as if the shares were issued and outstanding on June 8, 2001.
3. Agreements with Computer Associates
Pursuant to the purchase of all of the outstanding capital stock of Viewpoint Digital, Inc. (Viewpoint Digital) on September 8, 2000, the Company issued two contingent promissory notes to Computer Associates each in the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
maximum amount of $15,000,000, but subject to reduction on the basis of the performance of the Viewpoint Digital assets. During 2001, the Company entered into certain agreements with Computer Associates whereby Computer Associates agreed to accept newly-issued shares of Viewpoint common stock having a value of $4,000,000, in partial repayment of the first contingent promissory note due June 8, 2001. In addition Computer Associates agreed to accept, at the Companys election, either cash or newly-issued shares of Viewpoint common stock at an issue price of $4.00 per share in repayment of any additional amounts due under the promissory note due June 8, 2001, and the first $8,943,000 of the $15,000,000 contingent promissory note due April 30, 2002.
In June 2002, Viewpoint issued 909,093 shares of Viewpoint common stock to Computer Associates in full satisfaction of the first contingent promissory note due June 8, 2001. The amount due Computer Associates under the promissory note due April 30, 2002 is approximately $2,928,000 and is reflected in due to related parties in the Companys consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2002.
4. Related Party Transactions
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded revenues totaling $2,976,000 and $5,598,000, respectively, related to agreements, including reseller arrangements, with America Online, Inc. (AOL) and Computer Associates, both of whom have representatives on the Companys Board of Directors. The $5,598,000 of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 includes approximately $3,500,000 due to a March 2002 amendment to a contract with AOL, which resulted in the Company recording revenues when payments are due, as contrasted to the partial deferral of those payments which would otherwise have occurred. As of June 30, 2002, the Company has $1,452,000 in accounts receivable and $507,000 in deferred revenue relating to transactions entered into with these related parties.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded revenues totaling $198,000 and $356,000, respectively, related to agreements, including reseller arrangements, with Computer Associates.
5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company completed the adoption of SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. As required by SFAS No. 142, the Company discontinued amortizing the remaining balances of goodwill as of January 1, 2002. All remaining and future acquired goodwill will be subject to impairment tests annually, or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. All other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their estimated useful lives and assessed for impairment under SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In conjunction with the implementation of SFAS No. 142, the Company completed a goodwill impairment review as of January 1, 2002 and found no impairment on that date.
Upon adoption of the new Business Combination rules, an assembled workforce no longer meets the definition of an identifiable intangible asset. As a result, the net balance of $1,767,000, has been reclassified to goodwill on January 1, 2002.

(1) Includes amortization of an assembled workforce that has been reclassified as goodwill effective January 1, 2002, amounting to $265 and $530 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.
The Company recorded $2,928,000 of additional goodwill during the first quarter of 2002 in connection with a contingent promissory note due Computer Associates on April 30, 2002 for the acquisition of Viewpoint Digital. As of March 31, 2002, due to the persistence of unfavorable economic conditions along with lower-than-expected revenues generated to date and reduced estimates of future performance of the Viewpoint Digital assets, the Company performed an additional impairment analysis on the goodwill and other intangible asset balances recorded upon the acquisition of Viewpoint Digital. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, the Company recorded impairment charges totaling $6,275,000. The fair value of the Viewpoint Digital assets was estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows. The assumptions supporting the cash flows, including the discount rate, were determined using the Companys best estimates as of the date the impairment was recorded.

Overview
Viewpoint Corporation is a leading provider of interactive media technologies and services. Its graphics operating system platform, the Viewpoint Media Player, has been licensed by Fortune 500 companies and others for use in online, offline and embedded applications serving a wide variety of needs, including: business process visualizations, marketing campaigns, rich media advertising and product presentations. The Company also provides cross media digital solutions for film, broadcast television and games.
The Companys primary initiatives include:
| Licensing technology for specific marketing and e-commerce visualization solutions; | ||
| Providing a full range of fee-based digital asset content creation and engineering professional services for implementing visualization solutions for marketing and creating new and enhancing existing enterprise software applications; | ||
| Proliferating the Viewpoint format into digital advertisements on various digital media, primarily the Web and digital set-top cable boxes; | ||
| Forging technological alliances with leading interactive agencies and Web content providers; and | ||
| Maximizing market penetration and name recognition, including distribution of the Companys client-side software graphics operating system, the Viewpoint Media Player. |
Viewpoint believes that its success will depend largely on its ability to proliferate its digital technologies into various media, including broadcast television, games, movies, print, closed intranets, new and existing enterprise applications and television set-top boxes. Accordingly, Viewpoint has invested and intends to continue investing in research and development and sales and marketing. Revenues from continuing operations primarily have been from the sale of technology licenses and fee based professional services, including digital content creation services and engineering services to enhance and create new enterprise software applications.
Viewpoint has a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of the Company and its prospects can be based. Viewpoints prospects must be considered in light of the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage technology companies. There can be no assurance that Viewpoint will achieve or sustain profitability. Viewpoint has had significant quarterly and annual operating losses since its inception, and as of June 30, 2002, had an accumulated deficit of $212,760,000.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, and SAB No. 101 Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.
Viewpoint generates revenues through two sources: (a) software licenses and (b) services. License revenues are generated from licensing the rights to use our products directly to end-users and indirectly through VARs. Service revenues are generated from fee-based professional services, sales of customer support services (maintenance contracts), and training services performed for customers that license our products.
12
< P> License revenue includes sales of perpetual and term-based licenses for broadcasting digital content in the Viewpoint format, and limited licenses for its digital content library. License revenue is recognized over the term of the license in a term-based broadcast license model and up-front in a perpetual broadcast license model, providing that no significant vendor obligations remain and the resulting receivable is deemed collectible by management.
Fee-based professional services are performed on a time-and-material basis or on a fixed-fee basis, under separate service arrangements. Revenues related to these services are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis in accordance with the provisions of SOP 81-1 Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Percentage-of-completion for service contracts is measured principally by the percentage of costs incurred and accrued to date for each contract to the estimated total cost for each contract at completion. Revenues from customer support services are recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Revenues from training services are recognized as services are performed.
License revenue increased approximately $2,082,000, or 117%, and $3,713,000, or 101%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. Service revenue increased approximately $471,000, or 49%, and $907,000, or 49%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. The increase in revenues is attributable to a number of factors, most notably: our expanding relationship with AOL, the expansion of our indirect channel partnerships, and the increased proliferation of our technology through distribution of the Viewpoint Media Player. The persistence of unfavorable economic conditions, however, continue to negatively impact our revenue growth.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company recorded revenues totaling $2,976,000 and $5,598,000, respectively, related to agreements, including reseller arrangements, with AOL and Computer Associates, both of whom have representatives on the Companys Board of Directors. The $5,598,000 of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 includes approximately $3,500,000 due to a March 2002 amendment to a contract with AOL, which resulted in the Company recording revenues when payments are due, as contrasted to the partial deferral of those payments which would otherwise have occurred.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company recorded revenues totaling $198,000 and $356,000 respectively, related to agreements, including reseller arrangements, with Computer Associates.
The Company expects its revenue to continue to increase in 2002 based upon the visible increase in the market acceptance of our technology. It is anticipated that the increase in revenues will be derived from both license and service revenues.

Costs of revenues consist primarily of salaries and consulting fees for those who provide fee-based professional services. The increase in cost of revenues is directly related to an increase in fee-based professional services.
The Company expects its cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollars, while decreasing slightly as a percentage of total revenues, due to continuously improving efficiencies and the mix of license and services revenues.

Sales and marketing expenses include salaries and benefits, sales commissions, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, consulting fees and travel and entertainment expenses for our sales and marketing personnel. Sales and marketing expenses also include the cost of programs aimed at increasing revenue, such as advertising, trade shows and public relations.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $1,606,000, or 30%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits, marketing costs, recruiting fees, and travel and entertainment expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses decreased $2,880,000, or 27%, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits, marketing costs, recruiting fees, and travel and entertainment expenses offset by an increase in non-cash stock-based compensation charges. Non-cash stock-based compensation charges increased as certain personnel who were reflected in research and development during the six months ended June 30, 2001 are now reflected in sales and marketing due to a change in the nature of their duties.
The Company does not expect a material increase in sales and marketing expenses in 2002 as compared to 2001 based on the Companys indirect marketing strategy and the increased utilization of creative services personnel, which will increase cost of revenues, rather than sales and marketing expenses. It is expected that these decreases in costs will be partially offset by increases in selling expenses to support the projected higher revenues. As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses are expected to decrease.
Research and development (including non-cash stock-based compensation charges totaling $160 and $745 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively and $355 and $1,485 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively)

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and
benefits for software developers, contracted development efforts, and non-cash
stock-based compensation charges related to the Companys product development
efforts. The Company expenses as incurred research and development costs
necessary to establish the technological feasibility of its internally
developed software products and technologies. To date, the establishment of
technological feasibility of the Companys products and general release have
substantially coincided. As a result,

the Company has not capitalized any internal software development costs since costs qualifying for such capitalization have not been significant. Additionally, the Company capitalizes costs of software, consulting services, hardware and payroll-related costs incurred to purchase or develop internal-use software, when technological feasibility has been established, it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. The Company expenses costs incurred during preliminary project assessment, research and development, re-engineering, training and application maintenance.
Research and development expenses decreased $777,000, or 36%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits, contracted development, and non-cash stock-based compensation charges. Salaries and benefits, and non-cash stock-based compensation charges decreased as certain personnel which were reflected in research and development during the three months ended June 30, 2001, are now reflected in sales and marketing due to a change in the nature of their duties.
Research and development expenses decreased $1,899,000, or 41%, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits, contracted development, and non-cash stock-based compensation charges. Salaries and benefits, and non-cash stock-based compensation charges decreased as certain personnel which were reflected in research and development during the six months ended June 30, 2001, are now reflected in sales and marketing due to a change in the nature of their duties.
The Company expects research and development expenses to remain relatively flat in 2002, as compared to 2001. Anticipated increases in research and development expenditures are expected to be offset by customer-specific engineering efforts in the enterprise applications group, which will be classified as cost of revenues. As a percentage of total revenues, research and development expenses are expected to decrease.
General and administrative (including non-cash stock-based compensation charges totaling $414 and $388 for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively and $828 and $795 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively)

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of corporate overhead of the Company, which includes salaries and benefits related to finance and administration personnel along with other administrative costs such as legal, accounting and investor relation fees, and insurance expense.
General and administrative expenses decreased $322,000, or 12%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period last year. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits, rent and office maintenance costs, and legal costs offset by an increase in insurance costs.

As a result of SFAS 142, the Company ceased amortizing approximately $33,042,000 of goodwill. In lieu of amortization, the Company is required to test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist.

In conjunction with the implementation of SFAS No. 142, the Company completed a goodwill impairment review as of January 1, 2002 and found no impairment on that date. As of March 31, 2002, due to the persistence of unfavorable economic conditions along with lower-than-expected revenues generated to date and reduced estimates of future performance of the Viewpoint Digital assets, the Company performed an additional impairment analysis on the goodwill and other intangible asset balances recorded upon the acquisition of Viewpoint Digital. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, the Company recorded impairment charges totaling $6,275,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2002. The fair value of the Viewpoint Digital assets was estimated using the expected present value of future cash flows. The assumptions supporting the cash flows, including the discount rate, were determined using the Companys best estimates as of the date the impairment was recorded.

Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations
We believe that in the future our results of operations could be affected by various factors including:
| We have a limited operating history that makes an evaluation of our business difficult; | ||
| We have a history of losses and expect to incur losses in the future; | ||
| Our future revenues may be unpredictable and may cause our quarterly results to fluctuate; | ||
| We may be unable to meet our future capital requirements; | ||
| Our stock price is volatile and may continue to fluctuate in the future; |
17
| If the Internet does not continue to expand as a widespread commerce medium, demand for our products and technologies may decline significantly; | ||
| Our market is characterized by rapidly changing technology, and if we do not respond in a timely manner, our products and technologies may not succeed in the marketplace; | ||
| Potential delays in product releases could harm our business; | ||
| Undetected errors in our products and technologies could result in adverse publicity, reduced market acceptance or lawsuits by customers; | ||
| In order to increase market awareness of our products and generate increased revenue we may need to expand our sales and marketing capabilities; | ||
| We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights and we may be liable for infringing the intellectual property rights of others; | ||
| Security risks could limit the growth of e-commerce and expose us to litigation or liability; | ||
| Increasing government regulation could increase our cost of doing business or increase our legal exposure; | ||
| We may need to enter into other business combinations and strategic alliances which could be difficult to integrate and may disrupt our business; | ||
| The loss of any of our key personnel would harm our business; | ||
| Our revenues could be negatively affected by the loss of resellers and strategic partners and if we fail to establish, maintain or expand our strategic relationships for the integration of our technology with the services of third parties, the growth of our business may cease or decline; | ||
| Our lengthy sales cycle and product implementation makes it difficult to predict our quarterly results; | ||
| Our projects vary in size and scope; therefore, a client that accounts for a large portion of our revenues in one period may not generate similar amounts of revenue in subsequent periods; | ||
| Our future success depends on our ability to identify, hire, train and retain highly qualified employees; | ||
| Our charter documents could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us; | ||
| Our business is subject to general economic conditions as well as those specific to the Internet and related industries. |
Critical Accounting Policies And Estimates
Viewpoints 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 of America. The preparation of these financial statements
requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and
18
related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going
basis, the Company evaluates its critical accounting policies and estimates,
including those related to revenue recognition. We base
our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances though actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a
complete description of the Companys accounting policies, see the consolidated
financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period
ended December 31, 2001.
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
Revenue recognition rules for software companies are very complex. We
follow very specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue; however,
certain judgments affect the application of our revenue policy. Revenue
results are difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenue or delay in
recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly
from quarter to quarter.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software
Revenue Recognition, as amended, and SAB No. 101 Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements.
Viewpoint generates revenues through two sources: (a) software licenses
and (b) services. License revenues are generated from licensing the rights to
use our products directly to end-users and indirectly through VARs. Service
revenues are generated from fee-based professional services, sales of customer
support services (maintenance contracts), and training services performed for
customers that license our products.
License
revenue includes sales of perpetual and term-based licenses for
broadcasting digital content in the Viewpoint format, and limited licenses for
its digital content library. License revenue is recognized over the term of
the license in a term-based broadcast license model and up-front in a perpetual
broadcast license model, providing that no significant vendor obligations
remain and the resulting receivable is deemed collectible by management.
Fee-based professional services are performed on a time-and-material basis
or on a fixed-fee basis, under separate service arrangements. Revenues related
to these services are recognized on a percentage-of-completion basis in
accordance with the provisions of SOP 81-1 Accounting for Performance of
Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.
Percentage-of-completion for service contracts is measured principally by the
percentage of costs incurred and accrued to date for each contract to the
estimated total cost for each contract at completion. Revenues from customer
support services are recognized ratably over the term of the contract.
Revenues from training services are recognized as services are performed.
Standard terms for license agreements call for payment within 90 days.
Probability of collection is based upon the assessment of the customers
financial condition through the review of their current financial statements or
credit reports. For follow-on sales to existing customers, prior payment
history is also used to evaluate probability of collection. Our agreements
with customers do not contain product return rights.
Fees from licenses sold together with fee-based professional services are
generally recognized upon delivery of the software, provided that the payment
of the license fees are not dependent upon the performance of the services, and
the services are not essential to the functionality of the licensed software.
If the services are essential to the functionality of the software, or payment
of the license fees are dependent upon the performance of the services, both
the software license and service fees are recognized under the
percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting.
If the fee is not fixed or determinable, revenue is recognized as payments
become due from the customer. If a nonstandard acceptance period is required,
revenues are recognized upon the earlier of customer acceptance or the
expiration of the acceptance period.
19
The Company periodically enters into nonmonetary arrangements whereby the
Companys licenses or services are exchanged for services of its customer.
Nonmonetary revenue is recognized at the estimated fair value of the services
received. Generally, nonmonetary revenues equal nonmonetary expenses; however,
due to timing, nonmonetary accounts receivable and accounts payable may result.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations. The statement requires entities to record the fair
value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation in the period in which
it is incurred. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 143 is not expected to have a material
impact on the Companys financial statements.
In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). This Statement
requires recognition of a liability for a cost associated with an exit or
disposal activity when the liability is incurred, as opposed to when the entity
commits to an exit plan under EITF No. 94-3. SFAS No. 146 is to be applied
prospectively to exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.
The adoption of SFAS No. 146 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Companys financial statements.

Pursuant to the purchase of all of the outstanding capital stock of
Viewpoint Digital on September 8, 2000, the Company issued two contingent
promissory notes to Computer Associates each in the maximum amount of
$15,000,000, but subject to reduction on the basis of the performance of the
Viewpoint Digital assets. During 2001, the Company entered into certain
agreements with Computer Associates whereby Computer Associates agreed to
20
accept newly-issued shares of Viewpoint common stock having a value of
$4,000,000, in partial repayment of the first contingent promissory note due
June 8, 2001. In addition, Computer Associates agreed to accept, at the
Companys election, either cash or newly-issued shares of Viewpoint common
stock at an issue price of $4.00 per share in repayment of any additional
amounts due under the promissory note due June 8, 2001, and the first
$8,943,000 of the $15,000,000 contingent promissory note due April 30, 2002.
In June 2002, Viewpoint issued 909,093 shares of Viewpoint common stock to
Computer Associates in full satisfaction of the first contingent promissory
note due June 8, 2001. The amount due Computer Associates under the promissory
note due April 30, 2002 is approximately $2,928,000 and is reflected in due to
related parties in the Companys consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2002.
The Company believes that its current cash, cash equivalents, and
marketable securities balances and cash provided by future operations, if any,
are sufficient to meet its operating cash flow needs and anticipated capital
expenditure requirements through at least the next twelve months. The Company
may seek additional funds before that time through public or private equity
financing or from other sources to fund our operations and pursue our growth
strategy. We have no commitment for additional financing, and we may
experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing on favorable terms, if
at all. Any financing we obtain may contain covenants that restrict our
freedom to operate our business or may have rights, preferences or privileges
senior to our common stock and may dilute our current shareholders ownership
interest in Viewpoint.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is subject to concentration of credit risk and interest rate
risk related to cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company
does not have any derivative financial instruments as of June 30, 2002. Credit
risk is managed by limiting the amount of securities placed with any one
issuer, investing in high-quality marketable securities and securities of the
U.S. government and limiting the average maturity of the overall portfolio. The
majority of the Companys portfolio, which is classified as available-for-sale,
is composed of fixed income securities that are subject to the risk of market
interest rate fluctuations, and all of the Companys securities are subject to
risks associated with the ability of the issuers to perform their obligations
under the instruments. The Company may suffer losses in principal if forced to
sell securities, which have declined in market value due to changes in interest
rates.
