Special Note Regarding Forward
Looking Statements
The Company makes
forward-looking statements in this report and may make such statements in
future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company
may also make forward-looking statements in its press releases or other public
shareholder communications. The Companys forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties and include information about its
expectations and possible or assumed future results of operations. When
the Company uses any of the words believes, expects, anticipates, estimates
or similar expressions, it is making forward-looking statements.
To the extent
available, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 for all of its forward-looking statements. While the
Company believes that its forward-looking statements are reasonable, you should
not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date made. Because these forward-looking statements are
based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business,
economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Companys
control or are subject to change, actual results could be materially
different. Factors that might cause such a difference include, without
limitation, the following: the Companys inability to generate sufficient
cash flow to meet its current liabilities, the inability of the Company to find
suitable new acquisitions or the expense or difficulty of integrating such
acquisitions with current Company operations, adverse results in any of the
Companys material lawsuits, the possible failure of revenues to offset
additional costs associated with its new business model, the potential lack of
product acceptance, the Companys potential inability to introduce new products
to the market, the potential failure of customers to meet purchase commitments,
the potential loss of customer relationships, the potential failure to receive
or maintain necessary regulatory approvals, the extent to which competition may
negatively affect prices and sales volumes or necessitate increased sales
expenses, the failure of negotiations to establish original equipment
manufacturer agreements or strategic alliances and the other risks and
uncertainties set forth in this report.
Other factors not
currently anticipated by management may also materially and adversely affect
the Companys results of operations. Except as required by applicable
law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly release any
revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events
or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.
PART I
ITEM
1.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Introduction
American Medical
Technologies, Inc., (AMT or Company) distributes, manufactures and
brokers high technology products designed primarily for the global general
and cosmetic dental industries. In the
distributor function, AMT acts as the manufacturer licensee and global sales
representative of a premium brand of professional tooth whitening. As a manufacturer, AMT continues to design
and produce air and water abrasive kinetic preparation systems in the Companys
Corpus Christi, Texas manufacturing facility.
As a broker, AMT acts as the sales and technical detailer of several
premium and renowned dental product brands.
Outside of dental product sales AMT also develops, manufactures and
markets precision air abrasive jet machining, (AJM) systems for industrial
applications and operates a successful parts and maintenance business for past
AMT dental and industrial products. AMT incorporated in Delaware in November 1989
and completed its initial public offering in June 1991. AMT changed its name for American Dental
Technologies, Inc. on July 13, 2000.
3
Over the past few years
AMT successfully implemented a restructuring and recovery program which
protected the companys assets from excessive claims and creating a solid
foundation from which the company was to plan and execute its current, positive
growth strategy. In 2006, the Company
added the Spectrum Dental product line and by doing, began a new era in the
life of AMT which lead to the production of a business model for the sound and
on-going development of shareholder value.
In 2007, AMT became the contractual broker of the BriteSmile, BreathRx,
DirectCrown and SheerVision brands of reputable and high quality dental
products.
Products
Described below
are the Companys current principal product lines.
Contrast
Tooth Whitening
In April 2007, the
Company entered into a 5 year licensing agreement with Discus Dental and its
wholly owned subsidiary, Spectrum Dental, a leading provider of professional
tooth whitening systems, under which AMT was granted the exclusive worldwide
distribution rights of the Spectrum Dental product line. The products purchased from Discus Dental and
resold under the brand names: Contrast AM, Contrast PM, Contrast PM Plus, FastDam,
FastTrack and other ancillary products, utilize hydrogen peroxide or carbamide
peroxide in various concentrations to safely and effectively whiten discolored
teeth. Although the safety and efficacy
of these technologies are well tested, due to the relative strength of the
materials, Contrast tooth whitening products are only available as administered
by dental professionals.
Spectrum Dental products
accounted for 53% and 34% of AMTs total revenues in 2007 and
2006, respectively
Details
of the Discus Dental / Spectrum Dental License Agreement:
As previously initially reported in the Companys Form 8-K,
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 17,
2006, the Company, on April 11, 2006, entered into an Exclusive License
Agreement (the License Agreement) with Discus Dental Holdings, Inc., a
California corporation (Discus), under which the Company became the
exclusive, worldwide distributor of the proprietary dental products
manufactured and sold by Discus wholly owned subsidiary, Spectrum Dental, Inc.
(Spectrum). The License Agreement is for a term of five years, contains
minimum requirements for sale of the products by the Company, and may be
terminated (i) for cause upon 30 days notice, (ii) at certain times
during the term of the License Agreement if the Company fails to maintain
positive net income for a specified period, (iii) upon the Companys
failure to comply with applicable securities laws, (iv) if any judgment is
rendered against the Company, or it defaults on any debt, in excess of $50,000,
(v) upon any change in the Companys results of operation or condition
which in the sole opinion of Discus has or could have a material adverse effect
on the Companys condition, business, properties or prospects, and (vi) upon
the occurrence of certain other customary events of default. As full
consideration, the Company granted to Discus a ten year warrant (the Warrant)
to purchase up to 2,500,000 shares of its common stock at $0.20 per share. The
shares subject to the Warrant vest 500,000 after the first year and an
additional 41,667 shares on each successive full one-month period thereafter
until the fifth anniversary of the date of grant; however vesting ceases upon
the sale of Spectrum to the Company as contemplated by the Option Agreement
described below. The shares subject to the Warrant are adjusted upon the
occurrence of certain events including a stock dividend, reclassification,
merger and stock split, and upon the issuance of shares for a consideration per
share less than the applicable conversion price of the Warrant, with certain
exceptions for compensation paid in stock.
4
Manufacturing
Agreement
Also, on April 11, 2006, the Company entered into
a Manufacturing Agreement with Westside Packaging, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Discus and the current manufacturer, for the manufacture of the
products and sale to the Company for distribution under the License Agreement.
The products manufactured are sold under the marks Contrastpm®, Contrastam®,
FastDam® and FastTrak®. The Manufacturing Agreement is for a term of three
years with automatic one year renewal terms unless either party gives notice of
non-renewal.
Standstill
Agreement
As of January 16, 2007, Discus, Spectrum and
Westside, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, entered into a
Standstill Agreement, in which each of the parties agreed that there are
pending disputes among them concerning the existence and/or extent of any
performance issues under the License Agreement and Manufacturing Agreement
(collectively, the Agreements). It is the Companys position that the
Agreements are in effect. Discus has agreed not to dispute the Companys
position, but has reserved, together with the Company, all rights, claims
and/or defenses relating to the Agreements. The parties to the Standstill
Agreement have agreed to discuss potential resolution of any disputes arising
out of the Agreements. Further, the parties have agreed that any party
may terminate the Standstill Agreement by providing the other party with 10
days written notice. The parties further agreed that no party to the
Standstill Agreement may commence any legal action against the other party
prior to termination of the Standstill Agreement. The Standstill
Agreement is dated February 1, 2007.
Option
Agreement
On April 11, 2006, the Company and Discus also
entered into a Put and Call Option Agreement (the Option Agreement) whereby
Discus has a put option to compel the Company to purchase all the outstanding
shares of capital stock of Spectrum, and the Company has a call option to
compel Discus to sell such shares, at any time after April 11, 2007 and
before the earlier to occur of the termination or expiration of the License
Agreement or five years. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company
may not exercise its call option if the price at which its shares of
common stock are trading, or the average trading price of its shares during the
preceding 30 day period, is less than $0.60 per share. The exercise price of the
option will be between $2,300,000 and $2,662,537.50, depending on the date of
exercise. The purchase price will be paid with a combination of cash and
3,000,000 shares of Company common stock (subject to adjustment); provided that
if that aggregate value of the specified amount of cash and the value of the
stock based on the average trading value of the Companys stock for the 30 days
preceding the closing of the Option Agreement is less than the applicable
exercise price, then the Company must issue additional shares to equal the
value of the exercise price. At the option of the parties, the exercise price
can be paid in all cash; however, if the Company first elects to exercise its
call option, the method of payment of the exercise price will be at the election
of Discus. Upon the exercise of the option, the parties shall enter into a
Stock Purchase Agreement substantially in the form agreed to in the Option
Agreement for the purchase and sale of the Spectrum shares.
Registration
Rights Agreement
Also, on April 11, 2006, the Company entered into
a Registration Rights Agreement with Discus pursuant to which it agreed, at its
own expense, to register the offer and resale of shares issuable upon exercise
of the Warrant not later than April 11, 2007, and to register shares
acquired by Discus under the Option Agreement within 120 days after the
exercise of an option under the Option Agreement and to use its reasonable best
efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC
as soon as practicable thereafter. The Company must, subject to certain
specified circumstances, maintain the effectiveness of the registration
statement for a
5
specified period of time. The Company also granted to
Discus piggyback rights for other registration statements filed by it with the
SEC for the sale of its shares. As of
the date of this filing of this form 10-KSB, the Company has not filed such a
registration statement. The Registration
Rights Agreement requires physical or net-share settlement by delivery of
registered shares and does not specify any circumstances under which net-cash
settlement will be permitted or required and the contract does not specify how
the contract will be settled in the event that the Company is unable to deliver
registered shares. Therefore, net-cash settlement is assumed if the Company
is unable to deliver registered shares and the warrants are classified as a
liability.
KCP Cavity Preparation Systems
AMT has patented
the method whereby a dentist can remove tooth decay by means of a narrow, high
velocity stream of minute particles delivered by compressed air to the tooth
through a lightweight dental hand piece. In many cases the KCP lessens
the patient sensitivity and, as such, may be used to treat a patient without
anesthesia. .The KCP shapes restorations, removes old composite
materials, and modifies the underlying hard tissue, often helping to increase
bond strength in restorative procedures. It is also used for sealant preparations;
surface stain removal and intra-oral porcelain removal and repair. The
KCP can often be used in place of a traditional dental drill.
In 2003 and 2004,
the Company introduced Hydrobrasion technology. Hydrobrasion is the
patented use of air, water and micro particles which are combined to form an
effective cutting slurry that safely removes dental tooth structure and tooth
decay in a minimally invasive manner.. In 2004, the Company introduced
this technology in the KCP Flexijet®, an air abrasion unit with an integrated
water system that dramatically diminishes overspray, minimizes patient
sensitivity, and produces faster, more precise cutting.
In 2005, the Company developed and introduced the Hydro
Jet® product which utilizes the Companys patented Hydrobrasion technology.
KCP products
accounted for 3% and 12% of AMTs total revenues in 2007 and
2006, respectively
Industrial Products
AMT develops,
manufactures and markets its precision AJM systems for industrial
applications. The AJM system has a wide range of applications, including
drilling, cutting, abrading, deburring, dressing, beveling, etching, shaping
and polishing. Its principal advantage over conventional machining is
that the AJM process, which accomplishes its work through kinetic particle
displacement (an erosion process), produces no heat, shock or vibration.
This enables precise work to be done on fragile materials without deburring or
further processing. AJM systems are often used to remove the slag, burrs
and flash resulting from conventional machining processes. Some examples
include deburring needles, beveling silicon wafers and cutting fiber optics.
Industrial
products accounted for 18% and 20% of AMTs total revenues in 2007 and
2006, respectively.
DirectCrown Temporary Crown and Bridge Materials:
In April 2007,
AMT entered into a license agreement with CrownBeav LLC to represent the unique
DirectCrown brand of temporary crown and bridge shell materials. DirectCrown, a low-cost alternative to
conventional temporary crown and bridge materials, is a pre-formed shell made
of a high-impact, flexible, carbon polymer.
When filled with the systems resin and molded over the prepared teeth,
the result is a hard and wear-resistant restoration that is easier and less
expensive for the dentist that
6
traditional temporary
materials and techniques. Because of the simplicity and low cost natures of the
product, DirectCrown shells are ideal for patients of all ages.
License Agreement
On April 1, 2007, the Company entered into a
License Agreement with CrownBeav LLC, an Oregon limited liability company,
under which the Company became the nonexclusive distributor for the United
States and Canada and the exclusive distributor for the rest of the world of its
DirectCrown brand of temporary crown and bridge material. The license agreement is for a term of ten
years with automatic renewals for additional five year terms, contains minimum
requirements for sale of the products by the Company, and may be terminated (i) for
cause upon 60 days notice, (ii) upon the Companys failure to comply with
applicable securities laws, (iii) upon the occurrence of certain other
customary events of default. In full
consideration, the Company granted to CrownBeav a five year option to purchase
(the Option) 1,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share. The shares subject to the Option will vest
two years from the Effective Date of the agreement. The option agreement includes a guaranteed
trading price of $0.40 per share for the 30-day period prior to vesting. Additional option shares will be granted for
the difference if the market price of the shares is below $0.40 during the
30-day period.
The Black-Scholes option pricing model was used to
determine the fair value of the options issued to CrownBeav with the following
assumptions: risk free interest rate of 4.54%; dividend yield of 0%;
volatility factors of 139%, the expected market price of the Companys common
shares over the estimated life of the option of 3.5 years. The resulting
fair value of the call option was $341,726.
The option grant vests on April 1, 2009. The option agreement includes a guaranteed
trading price of $0.40 per share for the 30-day period prior to vesting. Additional option shares will be granted for
the difference if the market price is below $0.40 during the 30-day
period. The Black-Scholes option pricing
model was used to determine the fair value of the option guarantee issued to
CrownBeav with the following assumptions:
risk free interest rate of 4.60%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility
factors of 100%, the expected market price of the Companys common shares over
the guarantee period of 2 years. The
resulting fair value of the put option was $185,000. The $526,726 fair market value of the option
(combination of call and put) was capitalized as an intangible asset and is
being recognized as a licensing fee over the 10 year period of the license.
Commissions received by
AMT for DirectCrown products accounted for 3% of AMTs total revenues in
2007. DirectCrown products were not sold
by AMT in 2006.
BriteSmile Professional Tooth Whitening
In December 2007,
AMT entered into a partnership with Discus Dental, Inc. to represent the
highly acclaimed and world renowned BriteSmile professional tooth whitening
systems in select international markets.
BriteSmile, one of the worlds most highly recognized tooth whitening
brand names, is a tooth whitening procedure which is performed by a dental
professional in a dentist office. By
applying light technology to a proprietary gel and activator system, the
patient experiences dramatic whitening results in approximately one hour. To supplement the procedure, the BriteSmile
brand also includes professional take home whitening gels, a whitening
toothpaste, a refreshing mouth rinse and a unique Whitening to Go paint on
whitening stick. AMTs key role is to
act as the sales and technical service detailer for the existing global
BriteSmile business as well as to prospect for new distributors and new
countries.
No revenue was recognized
for the representation of BriteSmile products in 2007.
7
BreathRx Professional Oral Care Products
In conjunction
with the above mentioned BriteSmile agreement, in December 2007 AMT also
entered into a partnership with Discus Dental, Inc. to represent the
unique BreathRx line of professional oral care products in select international
markets. The BreathRx brand, sold
primarily in the USA through major retail drug and supermarket outlets, is a
comprehensive system used to eliminate oral malodor. Through the three step
process of rinsing, scraping and brushing, a patient
will experience a clinically proven reduction in
bad breath. The proprietary active ingredients in the
system help to kill odor causing bacteria while delivering a fresh minty flavor
to the mouth. Ancillary products such as
whitening toothpaste, chewing gum, breath mints and breath spray help to fill
out the product offering. AMTs role is
to offer BreathRx to its established distribution network who then sell the
product to dental professionals.
No revenue was recognized
for the representation of BreathRx products in 2007.
SheerVision
dental headlights and loupes
In December 2007,
AMT entered into a partnership agreement with the company SheerVision, Inc.
(SheerVision) (OTC: BB: SVSO:OB) to represent the highly acclaimed
family of advanced proprietary surgical loupes and LED head light systems
for the dental, medical and veterinary markets. Under the terms of the
agreement, AMT acts as the sales and technical service representative, selling
SheerVision products through its international federation of international
distributors. AMT is compensated on a commission basis for all products
sold into the international territory.
At the time of the
agreement, SheerVision announced they were making some engineering upgrades to
their existing Infinity Firefly dental headlight. The upgrade process
has taken longer than SheerVision expected and, as such, commissionable sales
will not be realized by AMT until at least the second quarter of 2008
Parts, Maintenance and Consumable Sales
In support of the
8,000+ Flexijet, Hydrojet and Plasma Arc Curing (PAC) lights that have been
installed in the field, primarily in the USA and in Europe, AMT offers a for
fee repair and part service for the units which have gone past their original
manufacturers warranty period. AMT
generates revenue and profit by performing repairs and maintenance on past sold
units.
Parts, Maintenance and
Consumable Sales accounted for 19% and 31% of AMTs total revenues in 2007 and
2006, respectively.
Marketing,
Sales and Training
In the North
American dental market, AMT uses a network of independent sales representatives
and major dental dealers and distributors to sell its products.
For AMTs
international markets, AMT has set up an international distribution network
with key distribution partners located in Latin America, Asia, Europe and the
Middle East. These third-party distributors are responsible for directing
individual country sales, providing sales and technical support, and in some
cases, holding and managing local inventory and logistics.
8
AMT presently has
several industrial product distributors for its AJM product. Such
distributors have been and are anticipated to be the primary source of sales
for AMTs industrial products in the future. Industrial product
distributors are supported by AMT primarily through advertising in the Thomas
Register and trade journals, and by participation in trade shows.
Training
and Service
Training and the
dissemination of industry information is an important factor in the successful
sale of AMT products. The Company offers its dealers and distributors
free training on all products and supports them on an as needed basis with
dentist training, technical seminars and lectures.
AMT provides
warranty and repair service for AMTs products in the United States. To
service its dental equipment, AMT has a service department in Corpus Christi
and has service arrangements with independent distributors for products in
other markets. To date, AMT has not experienced significant service
problems. AMT generally provides a one-year warranty on all of its
products, except for Contrast tooth whitening and BreathRx oral care products,
where no warranty or service is required.
Competition
There is direct
competition to AMTs in-house manufactured products; however, it is the new and
emerging technologies that represent the biggest commercial threat to the
Companys manufacturing business. Hydrobrasion technology is being
supplanted by high technology dental lasers which, although considerably higher
in price, can perform certain additional functions. On the lower end,
this technology competes with conventional treatment methods that include
standard drills and basic dental instruments. Even so, a small market
still exists which justifies the continuance of the product line for the
foreseeable future.
For all in-house
manufactured products, AMT has patents in the basic technologies which the
Company believes provide a competitive advantage. AMT believes there are
approximately three companies that presently sell competing dental air abrasive
products. AMTs PAC and KCP products must also compete with conventional
treatment methods using dental instruments or equipment that are generally less
expensive and with which dentists are more familiar.
AMT faces several
competitors in the tooth whitening industry. AMTs Contrast tooth
whitening products face competition from a variety of companies utilizing
similar hydrogen peroxide and carbamide peroxide technologies. The BriteSmile products face competition from
Discus Dentals own ZOOM in-office tooth whitening system as well as from
Chinese and European light manufacturers.
Even so, the global tooth whitening market continues to grow with
patient demand at an all time high.
Many of the
companies that compete against the total AMT product offering, particularly
those that manufacture traditional dental equipment, have been in business
longer, have greater resources and have a larger distribution network than
AMT. AMTs competitive position is dependent upon its pricing and
marketing practices, its ability to make ongoing improvements in its existing
products, to develop new products, and to successfully promote the capabilities
and treatment benefits of its products. While AMT believes its products
are competitive in terms of capabilities, quality and price, competition has
adversely affected, and may in the future adversely affect, AMTs business.
9
Patents
AMT believes its
patents provide some competitive advantage in those countries where they have
been issued. AMT believes its technology patents and other patent rights
provide a proprietary means to utilize that technology in dentistry. In
the United States, AMT has patents related to dental air abrasive systems and
methods for using an air abrasive stream for dentistry that do not begin
expiring until 2011, technology patents for air abrasive cavity preparation
systems which will begin expiring in 2012, and industrial air abrasive patents
which have expiration dates ranging from 2011 to 2017. AMT also holds
several industrial air abrasive patents in various other countries.
As a result, in 2005, two companies signed license agreements with the Company
to market air abrasion products and in 2006 a settlement agreement was reached
with a third company.
CrownBeav LLC and
Discus Dental both hold strategic technology patents for their respective
products, providing AMT with some market protection and creating certain
barriers to entry for new manufacturers.
The Contrast tooth whitening products are not protected by patent.
Manufacturing
and Suppliers
To the extent that
AMT continues to manufacture, the manufacturing operations are conducted at its
ISO 9001:2000 and EN13485
certified
facility in Corpus Christi, Texas. AMTs products are manufactured from
parts, components and subassemblies obtained from a number of unaffiliated
suppliers or fabricated internally at its manufacturing facility. AMT has
modern machining capability allowing it to control the production of certain
non-standard parts. AMT uses numerous suppliers for standard parts and
for fabrication of certain parts. Although most of the parts and
components used in its products are available from multiple sources, AMT
presently obtains several parts and components from single sources. Lack
of availability of certain parts and components could result in production
delays. Management has identified alternate suppliers and believes any
delays would be minimal and would not materially affect AMTs business.
AMT has
contractual relationships with the manufacturer of the Spectrum tooth whitening
products, BreathRx oral care products, BriteSmile professional tooth whitening
systems and DirectCrown temporary crown and bridge products. The manufacturers
of all these products are stable and product is delivered per pre-established,
mutually agreed order quantities and ship dates. The Company believes
that delivery delays would be highly unlikely and would have a minimal
material effect on AMTs business.
Research
and Development
Historically, most
research and development, prototype production and testing activities for the
products manufactured by AMT have taken place at the Companys Corpus Christi,
Texas facility, although some research and development work was performed for
AMT by consultants. No further major new product development is
anticipated by the Company.
AMTs research and
development expenditures for 2007 and 2006 were $17,596 and $67,783,
respectively.
Governmental
Regulation
The dental products
manufactured by AMT are subject to significant governmental regulation in the
United States and in certain other countries. In order to conduct
clinical tests and to market products
10
for therapeutic use, AMT
must comply with procedures and standards established by the FDA and comparable
foreign regulatory agencies. Changes in existing regulations or adoption
of additional regulations may adversely affect AMTs ability to market its existing
products or to market enhanced or new dental products.
At this time, AMTs
Contrast and DirectCrown product lines are not subject to regulation inside the
USA. A change in this status could adversely affect AMTs ability to
market these products in the USA.
United
States Regulatory Requirements
The Federal Food,
Drug and Cosmetic Act (FDC Act) regulates medical devices in the United
States by classifying them into one of three classes based on the extent of
regulation believed necessary to ensure safety and effectiveness. Class I
devices are those devices for which safety and effectiveness can reasonably be
ensured through general controls, such as device listing, adequate labeling,
pre-market notification and adherence to the Quality System Regulation (QSR)
as well as medical device reporting (MDR), labeling and other regulatory
requirements. Some Class I medical devices are exempt from the
requirement of pre-market approval or clearance. Class II devices
are those devices for which safety and effectiveness can reasonably be ensured
through the use of special controls, such as performance standards, post-market
surveillance and patient registries, as well as adherence to the general
controls provisions applicable to Class I devices. Class III
devices are devices that generally must receive pre-market approval by the FDA
pursuant to a pre-market approval (PMA) application to ensure their safety
and effectiveness. Generally, Class III devices are limited to life
sustaining, life supporting or implantable devices; however, this
classification can also apply to novel technology or new intended uses or
applications for existing devices.
Before they can be
marketed, most medical devices introduced to the United States market are
required by the FDA to secure either clearance of a pre-market notification
pursuant to Section 510(k) of the FDC Act (a 510(k) Clearance)
or approval of a PMA. Obtaining approval of a PMA application can take several
years. In contrast, the process of obtaining 510(k) Clearance generally
requires a submission of substantially less data and usually involves a shorter
review period. Most Class I and Class II devices enter the market via
the 510(k) Clearance procedure, while new Class III devices
ordinarily enter the market via the more rigorous PMA procedure. In
general, approval of a 510(k) Clearance may be obtained if a manufacturer
or seller of medical devices can establish that a new device is substantially
equivalent to a predicate device other than one that has an approved
PMA. The claim for substantial equivalence may have to be supported by
various types of information, including clinical data, indicating that the
device is as safe and effective for its intended use as its legally marketed
equivalent device. The 510(k) Clearance is required to be filed and
cleared by the FDA prior to introducing a device into commercial distribution.
Market clearance for a 510(k) notification submission may take three to 12
months or longer. If the FDA finds that the device is not substantially
equivalent to a predicate device, the device is deemed a Class III device,
and a manufacturer or seller is required to file a PMA application. Approval of
a PMA application for a new medical device usually requires, among other
things, extensive clinical data on the safety and effectiveness of the
device. PMA applications may take years to be approved after they are
filed. In addition to requiring clearance or approval for new medical devices,
FDA rules also require a new 510(k) filing and review period, prior
to marketing a changed or modified version of an existing legally marketed
device, if such changes or modifications could significantly affect the safety
or effectiveness of that device. FDA prohibits the advertisement or promotion
of any approved or cleared device for uses other than those that are stated in
the devices approved or cleared application.
The FDA granted
510(k) Clearance to market the KCP for hard-tissue applications in late
1992. 510(k) Clearance to market the PAC was granted by the FDA in
mid-1995.
Pursuant to FDC
Act requirements, the Company has registered its manufacturing facility with
the FDA as a medical device manufacturer, and listed the medical devices it
manufactures. The Company also is subject to inspection on a routine
basis for compliance with FDA regulations. These regulations include
those covering the QSR, which, unless the device is a Class I exempt
device, require that the Company
11
manufacture its products
and maintain its documents in a prescribed manner with respect to issues such
as design controls, manufacturing, testing and validation activities.
Further, the Company is required to comply with other FDA requirements with respect
to labeling, and the MDR regulations which require that the Company provide
information to the FDA on deaths or serious injuries alleged to have been
associated with the use of its products, as well as product malfunctions that
are likely to cause or contribute to death or serious injury if the malfunction
were to recur. The Company believes that it is currently in material
compliance with all relevant QSR and MDR requirements.
In addition, our
manufactured products are subject to regulatory requirements covering
third-party reimbursement. Our products are generally purchased by
dental or medical professionals who then bill various third party payors, such
as government programs or private insurance plans, for the procedures conducted
using these products. In the United States third party payors review and
frequently challenge the prices charged for medical services. In many foreign
countries, the prices are predetermined through government regulation.
Payors may deny coverage and reimbursement if they determine that the procedure
was not medically necessary (for example, cosmetic) or that the device used in
the procedure was investigational. We believe that most of the procedures
being performed with our current products generally have been reimbursed. The
inability to obtain reimbursement for services using our products could deter
dentists and physicians from purchasing or using our products. We cannot
predict the effect of future healthcare reforms or changes in financing for
health and dental plans. Any such changes could have an adverse effect on
the ability of a dental or medical professional to generate a return on
investment using our current or future products. Such changes would act
as disincentives for capital investments by dental and medical professionals
and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and
results of operations.
Foreign
Regulatory Requirements
International
sales of medical devices are also subject to the regulatory requirements of
each country. Regulation of medical devices in foreign countries varies
between countries. The Company, in general, will rely upon its
distributors and sales representatives in the foreign countries in which it
markets its products to ensure that the Company complies with the regulatory
laws of such countries. In Europe, the regulations of the European Union
require that a device have a CE mark before it can be sold in that
market. The KCP, PAC, tooth whitening, oral care and DirectCrown products
have all been granted CE mark approvals and may be sold in European Union
countries and markets. Additional foreign authorizations to market
its dental products are sought by the Company where needed.
Regulation of
medical devices in other countries is subject to change and there can be no
assurance AMT will continue to be able to comply with such requirements.
The Company believes that its international sales to date have been in
compliance with the laws of the foreign countries in which it has made sales.
Failure to comply with the laws of such country could have a material adverse
effect on the Companys operations and, at the very least, could prevent the
Company from continuing to sell products in such countries. Exports of
most medical devices are also subject to certain limited FDA regulatory
controls.
Product
Liability Exposure
AMTs business
involves the inherent risk of product liability claims. If such claims
arise, they could have an adverse effect on AMT. AMT currently maintains
product liability insurance with coverage per occurrence and in the aggregate
of $7 million. There is no assurance that such coverage will be
sufficient to protect AMT from all risks to which it may be subject or that
product liability insurance will be available at a reasonable cost, if at all,
in the future.

Foreign
Operations and Segment Information
For information
regarding the Companys foreign operations and business segments, see Note 8 of
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Such information is
incorporated herein by reference.
Employees
On April 9,
2008, AMT had 14 full-time employees. Of these employees, three were
engaged in direct sales and marketing activities. Five employees were
engaged in manufacturing activities, and the remaining six employees were in
finance, administration and customer service. AMT has no collective
bargaining agreements with any unions and believes that its overall relations
with its employees are good.
STATUS
OF PAST AND FUTURE BUSINESS STRATEGIES
:
KCP Cavity Preparation Systems:
In the past AMTs
patented KCP tooth decay removal and restorative preparation systems
represented significant sales and profit to the Company. The brand names:
KCP, Flexijet, and Hydro Jet were the market products in North America
and Europe during the dental industrys active use of hydrobrasion
technology. Now, with the advent of dental lasers and other non-invasive
technologies, AMT now finds that product sales for this mature technology have softened.
In 2008 AMT will
continue to include the Hydro Jet in its product offering, selling through its
existing international network of dealers; however no significant investment is
planned to upgrade the product technology or to market the products.
Equipment Service and Maintenance:
There are
approximately 8,000 KCP, Flexijet and HydroJet systems installed in dentist
offices primarily in North America and Europe, most of which have gone past
their original manufacturers warranty period. As an adjunct to the
Companys traditional sales activity, AMT also offers for-fee repair
services, generating revenue and profit by performing repairs and maintenance
on past sold equipment. With more and more dentists retiring their older
AMT equipment, the Company revenue from repairs and service has flattened
out. In 2008 AMT plans to continue the
parts, equipment and maintenance functions.
Industrial Products:
In the past, sales
of the Companys AJM systems and their associated parts and consumable products
have represented a significant portion of the Companys revenues even though
they were outside of the Companys primary dental market. Today,
industrial product sales have leveled off and are forecasted to remain flat
unless significant technology and marketing investment is made. The
Company is exploring ways to capitalize on this product line.
Discontinued Products:
Given the Companys
assessment of the current state of technology, and an influx of competition
from foreign manufacturers offering similar products, AMT discontinued selling
the Ultracam, Intra-oral Camera system in 2007. Repairs for the existing
units are referred to a qualified third party company. AMT liquidated the
stock and component inventories related to this discontinued product line.
13
New Products:
The Company
believes that the key to its on-going growth and profitability is in the
acquisition and sale of new products. Currently AMT is in discussions
with reputable dental manufacturers to increase the number and range
of products offered. AMT believes
that these discussions may lead to license or brokerage agreements in 2008, but
can provide no assurances that any licensing or brokerage agreements will
materialize or be profitable for the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
As
previously reported in the Companys Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on April 17,
2006, the Company, on April 11, 2006, sold to and leased back from the
Sepulveda Group, LLC, a California limited liability company affiliated with
Discus, its former 45,000 square foot building and property located at 5655
Bear Lane, Corpus Christi, Texas. The gross sale proceeds were $1.9 million,
and the Companys monthly lease back rent for the facility is $20,385 for a
five year term, commencing April 11, 2006, with a 3% yearly increase and
an option to extend the lease term for an additional five years.

3.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the normal
course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings. Except as stated below, we know of no pending
or threatened legal proceeding to which we are or will be a party which, if
successful, might result in material adverse change in our business properties
or financial condition. However, as with
most businesses, we are occasionally parties to lawsuits incidental to our
business, none of which are anticipated to have a material adverse impact on
our financial position, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows. We estimate the amount of potential exposure
it may have with respect to litigation claims and assessments.
The Company was in
arbitration for breach of employment contract claims filed by two former
employees totaling $250,000. In April 2006, the parties amended their
claims to a total amount between $385,000 and $1,035,000. In April 2006,
the Company settled with both parties for an aggregate payment of
$410,000. The settlement was included in other accrued liabilities in
the Companys March 2006 balance sheet and was paid in April 2006.
On November 20,
2006, a demand for arbitration and statement of claim was filed against the
Company, alleging that the Company had breached agreements to pay the claimant
royalties and consulting fees. The original demand sought damages of
$47,800. The demand for arbitration seeks an award of $125,000. The
original demand of $47,800 is included in other accrued liabilities in the
Companys December 2006 balance sheet. In October 2007, a preliminary
settlement was reached through arbitration in the amount of $32,500. The settlement and release were finalized and
the settlement paid in the first quarter of 2008.

In July 2007,
the Company adopted the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (Equity Plan). The Equity Plan provides for the granting of
Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights
(or SARs), Restricted Stock, Performance Units and Performance Shares to
employees, consultants and directors.
The purpose of the Equity Plan is to promote the success and to enhance
the value of the Company by aligning the interest of Participants with those of
the Companys shareholders, to provide flexibility to the Company in its
ability to motivate, attract, and retain the services of outstanding
individuals, upon whose judgment, interest, and special effort the success of
the Company is largely dependent. When
the Equity Plan was implemented there were 1,000,000 common shares available to
be granted under the Equity Plan. In the
year ended December 31, 2007, a total of 100,000 performance shares and
627,968 performance unit shares had been granted under the Equity Plan to legal
and outside consultants of the Company.
The $212,862 expense is included in other professional fees.
Recent Issuance of
Unregistered Securities
The Company issued 200,000 restricted shares of common
stock to Mr. Roger Dartt in August 2007 in consideration for work
performed in the first quarter of 2008.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
The following
discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this
report. The discussion contains certain forward-looking statements
relating to the Companys anticipated future financial condition and operating
results and its current business plans. In the future, the Companys
financial condition and operating results could differ materially from those
discussed herein and its current business plans could be altered in response to
market conditions and other factors beyond its control. Important factors
that could cause or contribute to such differences or changes include those
discussed elsewhere in this report. See the disclosures under Item
1-Description of Business.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates
and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements and related footnotes. These estimates and
assumptions are evaluated on an on-going basis based on historical
developments, market conditions, industry trends and other information the
Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. There can be
no assurance that actual results will conform to the Companys estimates and
assumptions, and that reported results of operations will not be materially
adversely affected by the need to make accounting adjustments to reflect
changes in these estimates and
assumptions from time to time. The following
policies are those the Company believes to be the most sensitive to estimates
and judgments. The Companys significant accounting policies are more
fully described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue
Recognition
The Company
recognizes revenue net of sales tax when all of the following criteria are
met: 1) a contract or sales arrangement exists, the buyer is
obligated to pay and such obligation would not be changed in the event of theft
or physical destruction or damage of the product; 2) products have been
shipped, and if necessary installed, and title has been transferred or services
have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or
determinable; 4) no further obligation exists on the part of the Company
(other than warranty obligations); and 5) collectibility is reasonably
assured. The Company grants a thirty day unconditional money-back
guarantee on selected products and a warranty for one year on parts and labor
on defective products. The Company accrues its estimated exposure to returns
and warranty claims based on historical average returns and claims paid.
None of the Companys current product lines requires installation. The Companys
policy is to include shipping and handling costs, net of related revenues, in
costs of goods sold.
Receivables
and Credit Policies
Trade receivables
are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms
requiring payment within 30 days from the invoice date. Payments on trade
receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customers
remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid
invoices. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced by a valuation
allowance for any invoices over 90 days past due and 5% of the remaining
balance. Additionally, management addresses significant individual accounts for
collectibility and provides an additional allowance if necessary
.
16
InventoriesSlow
Moving
The Companys
reserve for slow moving inventory is evaluated periodically based on its
current and projected sales and usage. The inventory reserve
calculation assumes that any parts on hand exceeding three years of projected
usage are subject to complete valuation allowance. For purposes of
computing the valuation allowance at December 31, 2007, part usage was
projected at 50% of 2007 part usage. The valuation allowance could change
materially, either up or down, if actual part usage in future years is
materially different than the usage projected at December 31, 2007;
however, the new cost basis cannot subsequently be marked up based on changes
in underlying facts and circumstances.
Issuance
of Options and Warrants
The Company
periodically issues options and warrants to purchase stock at a price which may
be higher or lower than the strike price of the stock on the grant date.
The fair value of the options and warrants issued is estimated at the date of
the grant using the Black Scholes pricing model. The Company recognizes
the expense over the vesting period of the options and warrants. The
Company has a policy of issuing new shares for the exercise of options and
warrants.
Results
of Operations
Years
Ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006
For the year ended December 31, 2007 revenue was $3,165,399 compared
to $2,712,335 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of
approximately 17%. The increase in
revenue resulted primarily from the addition of the Spectrum product line in April 2006. The Spectrum product line added
approximately $745,000 in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2007
compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. Commissions earned from the DirectCrown
product line added in April 2007 increased revenues by approximately
$83,000. The sale of inventory from
discontinued product line resulted in approximately $133,000 in additional
revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007. These increases were partially offset by a
$241,000 decrease in KCP product line sales and a decrease of $222,000 in the
sales of parts and repairs. The Company
anticipates continued growth in the new product lines add, the addition of new
product lines in the future and a continued decrease in KCP product line sales
and the sales of parts and repairs.
Additionally, royalties decreased approximately $25,000 due to decreased
sales by licensees, and the Company expects the decreases in royalties to
continue.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was approximately 53% for the
year ended December 31, 2007 compared to 50% for the year ended December 30,
2006. The increase in gross profit is
primarily attributable to the addition of the Spectrum product line in April 2006
which has a higher gross margin line than other product lines. Additionally, a portion of the increase in
gross profit is related to the addition of the DirectCrown product line
revenues which is received as commissions.
The higher gross profit was partially offset by $228,000 of inventory
added to the inventory valuation allowance in the year ended December 31,
2007 compared to $133,000 of inventory added to the inventory valuation
allowance in the year ended December 31, 2006.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,845,731 and
$2,841,547 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31,
2006 respectively, constituting an increase of less than 1%. For the year ended December 31, 2007
compared to the year ended December 31, 2006; payroll increased
approximately $118,000, primarily due to employee stock option expense; general
office expense increased approximately $154,000, primarily due to the license
fees related to the Spectrum and DirectCrown agreements and an increase of
approximately $57,000 in expenses related to new business development; other
professional fees increased approximately $201,000 primarily due to an increase
in legal and
17
accounting
fees related to new product contract negotiations and accounting fees related
to the cost of complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. These increases were partially offset by a
decrease of approximately $130,000 in show expenses as a result of AMTs master
distributors representing the Companys product lines on the Companys
behalf. Additionally, the year ended December 31,
2006 included $410,000 for the settlement of breach of employment and other
claims with former employees.
Other income (expense) was $242,918 and $67,231 for the years ended December 31,
2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.
Of the amount in 2007, approximately $94,000 is related to compensation
for consulting services, $46,000 is related to the write off of unused customer
credits from prior years and $15,300 is for the adjustment to a legal
settlement accrued in 2006. Of the
amount in 2006, $10,000 is related to the recovery of accounts receivable
invoices that were previously reserved and $9,000 is related to compensation
for consulting services.
Research and development expenses were $17,596 and $67,783 for the years
ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The expenses in 2006, included work on the
Companys Hydrojet handpieces. The
expenses in 2007 were related to new product research for the Companys tooth
whitening product line. The Company
expects the decrease in research and development expenses to continue.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The Companys
operating activities used $357,386 in cash resources in 2007.
The Companys
investing activities in 2007 provided $231,279.
The cash provided by investing activities in 2007 included $185,190 from
the sales and maturities of government securities.
The Companys
financing activities in 2007 provided $74,037.
The cash provided by financing activities in 2007 included $100,000
borrowed against the Companys line of credit.
On February 9,
2005 the Company entered into a secured loan agreement with Texas State Bank in
the amount of $682,000. The loan was secured by a primary lien on the Companys
building and other real property. Interest on the loan was set at the prime
rate plus 1%. The principal on the loan was payable in 35 monthly
installments of $3,789 plus interest with the final principal payment due in
full in February 2008. The funds received from this loan were used
to retire the note held by Aimee Maroney which matured on December 31,
2004. In April 2006, the Company invested $632,744 in a Certificate
of Deposit with a term of one year as collateral for the outstanding principal
remaining on the loan. The original terms of the loan remained the same.
In December 2006, the Company redeemed the Certificate of Deposit and used
the proceeds to pay the balance on the note.
On December 21,
2006, the Company entered into a secured line of credit agreement with Texas
State Bank. The funds available under the line of credit were
$600,000. The Company invested $300,000 with funds drawn against the line
of credit in a Certificate of Deposit with a term of one year as collateral for
the loan. Interest on the line of credit is set at the prime rate plus
1%. The interest rate on the line of credit was 9.25% as of December 31,
2006. The principal on the loan is payable in one payment on December 20,
2007, with interest on the outstanding amount payable monthly. The
Company borrowed an additional $100,000 against the line of credit in December 2006.
In February 2007, Texas State Bank increased the line of credit to
$800,000 using the Companys accounts receivable and inventory as
collateral. In January 2008, the Company renewed the secured line of credit agreement. The
terms of the original line of credit remained the same with the exception of the
payment date which was extended to January 2009.
18
On April 11,
2006 the Company sold its 45,000 square foot Corpus Christi facility for $1.9
million to the Sepulveda Group, a California limited liability company. The
Company entered into a five year lease back of the facility with a monthly rent
of $20,385. The lease provides for a 3% yearly rent increase and an option to
extend the lease for an additional five years. The Company invested $632,744 of
the sale proceeds in a Certificate of Deposit with Texas State Bank which will
be used as replacement collateral for the loan entered into in February 2005.
Of the proceeds, $54,858 was used for a security deposit and rent for the
facility, $88,671 was used to pay the 2005 property taxes and $14,088 was used
as real estate and closing fees. The remaining $1.1 million in net proceeds
were used to reduce liabilities and for operational expenses as needed.
On April 11,
2006, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Discus Dental
Holdings, Inc. (Discus) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Spectrum Dental, Inc.
(Spectrum Dental), a leading provider of professional tooth whitening
products under the brand names of Contrastpm, Contrastpmplus and Contrastam,
under which AMT became the exclusive distributor of the Spectrum Dental product
line, which provided approximately $933,000 in additional revenue in
2006. The Sepulveda Group, LLC is affiliated with Discus. In full payment for
the license, the Company issued Discus a warrant to purchase 2,500,000 shares
of common stock at $0.20 per share.
The fair value of
the warrants issued to Discus is estimated at the end of each period using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions used on December 31,
2007: risk free interest rate of 3.52%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility
factors of the expected market price of the Companys common shares over the
estimated life of the warrant of 6.42 years.
The calculated fair value of the warrant as of December 31, 2007
was $449,412. The calculated fair value of the warrant on the grant date
was $549,530 which the Company capitalized as an intangible asset and is
recognizing as a licensing fee over the vesting period of five years.
In 2006, the
Company entered into a new phase of its corporate development. The first
step in the transition was to infuse the existing executive and sales
management teams with fresh talent. The second step in the transition was
to review the status of AMTs existing core products and as a result of this
review, the Company is exploring the discontinuation of some of its mature
product lines in order to reduce spending and to outsource some of the Companys
equipment service and maintenance in order to take advantage of lower overhead
costs.
In 2007, the
Company continued to include the Hydro Jet in its product offering, selling
through its existing international network of dealers; however, no significant
investment was made to upgrade the
product technology or to market the products.
In 2008, the
Company continued the alteration of its basic business model from that of
traditional manufacturing to one of a product-brokering organization, directing
the sales of products from contractually bound manufacturers to the
international dental market. Under the new business model, AMT is in the
process of positioning itself as the
premier outsourced sales organization for companies seeking the international
sale and distribution of their unique dental products. In 2007, the
Company added DirectCrown , temporary crown and bridge materials; SheerVision
headlamps and loupes; BriteSmile professional tooth whitening and BreathRx
professional oral care products to the list of products being distributed or
represented by the Company. The Company
believes it can continually grow contractually protected revenue by increasing
the sales of existing products and by the sales of new product lines, while
minimizing overhead costs and inventory liabilities with the addition of brokered
product lines.
The Company has
suffered recurring losses from operations, and its total liabilities exceeds
its total assets. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to
continue as a going concern. The Companys ability to generate positive
operational cash flow is dependent upon increasing revenues through the sales
of existing product lines and the expansion related to the representation of
additional lines of dental products. While the Company has identified
additional product lines and has ongoing dialogs with dental product
manufacturers, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
finalizing the contract for representation of these products or that the
Company will be successful in generating a positive operational cash flow.

New
Accounting Standards and Disclosures
In June 2006,
FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109 Accounting for Income Taxes,
was issued. FIN No. 48 describes accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes, and includes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute
for recognizing the effect of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a
tax return. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2006. The Companys adoption of FIN No. 48 on January 1, 2007, had
no material effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations,
or cash flows.
In September 2006,
the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (SFAS
157), Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes
guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements
but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior
accounting pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff
Position (FSP) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which
defers the effective date of Statement 157 for nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at
fair value in an entitys financial statements on a recurring basis (at least
annually), to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. Earlier adoption is permitted, provided the
company has not yet issued financial statements, including for interim periods,
for that fiscal year. As of January 1, 2008, the Company does not have any
recurring fair value measurements and has opted for the deferral. Accordingly,
the Company has not implemented and is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS
157, but does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on
its results from operations or financial position.
In February 2007,
the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (SFAS 159),
The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS 159 permits
entities to measure eligible assets and liabilities at fair value. Unrealized
gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are
reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007. As of January 1, 2008, the Company did not elect the fair value
option on any financial instruments or certain other items as permitted by SFAS
159.
In December 2007,
the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141
(revised 2007) (SFAS 141R), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS 141.
SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer
recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree
and the goodwill acquired. The Statement also establishes disclosure
requirements that will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial
effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for fiscal years
20
beginning after December 15,
2008. The adoption of SFAS 141R is not expected to have a material impact on
the Companys results from operations or financial position.
In December 2007,
the FASB also issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160
(SFAS 160), Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements
an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 requires that accounting and
reporting for minority interests be re-characterized as non-controlling
interests and classified as a component of equity. SFAS 160 also establishes
reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly
identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests
of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 applies to all entities that prepare
consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations, but
will affect only those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling
interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. This
statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.
The adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on our
results from operations or financial position.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To The Stockholders and Board of
Directors
American Medical
Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American Medical Technologies, Inc.
as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements
of operations, stockholders deficit, and cash flows for the years then
ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys
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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the
consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of American Medical
Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years
then ended, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting
principles.
We were not engaged to
examine managements assertion about the effectiveness of American Medical
Technologies, Inc.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2007 included in the accompanying
Management
Evaluation of Internal Controls
and, accordingly, we do not express
an opinion thereon.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 1 to the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2007, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, and its total
liabilities exceeds its total assets. This raises substantial doubt about the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans in regard
to these matters are also described in Note 1 to the financial
21
statements. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Also as discussed in note
1 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, effective January 1,
2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R),
Share-Based Payment

American Medical Technologies, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
1.
ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Operations
and Principles of Consolidation
American Medical Technologies, Inc. (AMT or
the Company) develops, manufactures, markets and sells high technology
products primarily for dentistry; and distributes tooth whitening
products. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and
operations of the Company and American Medical Technologies GmbH, its German subsidiary.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Going
Concern
The
Companys financial statements are prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going
concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net
loss attributable to common shareholders of $952,856 and $1,421,992 for the
years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006,
respectively. The Companys recurring
losses from operations and the Companys total liabilities exceeding its total
assets raise substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a
going concern. The Company believes that
the increases in revenue and gross margin due to the addition of new product
line representations and additional funds available from the line of credit
will alleviate the doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going
concern; however, no assurances can be made.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost, determined by the first-in first-out method, or market. At December 31,
2007 and 2006, inventories consisted of the following:
|
|
2007

|
|
|

$
|
133,829
|
|
$
|
505,578
|
|
Inventories at December 31, 2007 and 2006 are net
of valuation allowances of approximately $1,000,000 and $1,700,000,
respectively. During the year ended December 31,
2007, the Company liquidated or disposed of approximately $850,000 of inventory
that was previously included in the Companys inventory valuation allowance.
The Companys reserve for slow moving inventory is
evaluated periodically based on its current and projected sales and usage. The
inventory reserve calculation assumes that any parts on hand exceeding three
years of projected usage are subject to complete valuation allowance. For
purposes of computing the valuation allowance at December 31, 2007, part
usage was projected at 50% of 2007 part usage. The valuation allowance could
change materially, either up or down, if actual part usage in future years is
materially different than the usage projected at December 31, 2007;
however, the new cost basis cannot subsequently be marked up based on changes
in underlying facts and circumstances.
Property
and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to ten
years. Depreciation is not included in cost of sales. At December 31,
2007 and 2006 property and equipment consisted of the following:

Investments
During 2005, the Company borrowed $1.35
million in margin loans from its investment brokerage house. Interest received
and matured securities were used as payments on these loans, with additional
borrowing as needed for cash requirements. The balance on the margin loans as
of December 31, 2005 was $822,290. The margin loans were set up with
a variable interest rate. The interest rate as of December 31, 2005 was
8.375%. During 2006, the Company borrowed an additional $206,000 in
margin loans from its investment brokerage house. Interest received and
matured securities were used to pay the balance on the margin loans in the
third quarter of 2006.
In April 2006, the Company sold to and leased
back from the Sepulveda Group, LLC, a building and property located in Corpus
Christi, Texas. The gross sale proceeds were $1.9 million. A gain
of $778,447 was recognized, $503,202 of which was deferred at December 31,
2007 and is being amortized over the term of the lease.
In April 2006, the Company invested $632,744 in a
Certificate of Deposit with Texas State Bank which was used as replacement
collateral for a loan entered into in February 2005. This
Certificate of Deposit was redeemed in December 2006.
In December 2006 the Company invested $300,000 in
a Certificate of Deposit with Texas State Bank which was used as collateral for
a line of credit extended to the Company by Texas State Bank.
Revenue
Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria
are met: 1) a contract or sales arrangement exists, the buyer is
obligated to pay and such obligation would not be changed in the event of theft
or physical destruction or damage of the product; 2) products have been
shipped, and if necessary installed, and title has been transferred or services
have been rendered; 3) the price of the products or services is fixed or
determinable; 4) no further obligation exists on the part of the Company
(other than warranty obligations); and 5) collectibility is reasonably
assured. The Company grants a thirty day unconditional money-back
guarantee on selected products and a warranty for one year on parts and labor
on defective parts and equipment. The Company accrues its estimated exposure to
returns and warranty claims based on historical average returns and claims
paid. None of the Companys current product lines require installation.
The Companys policy is to include shipping and handling costs, net of related
revenues, in costs of goods sold.
Receivables
and Credit Policies
-Trade receivables are uncollateralized customer obligations due under
normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days from the invoice date.
Payments on trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified
on the customers remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the
earliest unpaid invoices. The carrying amount of trade receivables is reduced
by a valuation allowance for any invoices over 90 days past due and 5% of the
remaining balance. Additionally, management addresses significant individual
accounts for collectibility and provides an additional allowance if necessary.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible assets consist of patents, and are stated at cost less accumulated
amortization.
28
Goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite
useful lives are tested at least annually for impairment. Intangible
assets with finite useful lives will continue to be amortized over their useful
lives.
The Company has amortizable intangible assets as of December 31,
2007 and 2006 as follows:

Potentially dilutive securities include options and
warrants. As of December 31, 2007
and December 31, 2006 there were approximately 825,000 and 159,000 shares
issuable, respectively, in connection with these potentially dilutive
securities. These potentially dilutive
securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per share
for both years because their effect would have been antidilutive.
Comprehensive
Loss
The Financial Accounting Standards Boards Statement No. 130,
Reporting Comprehensive Income
requires
foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized income (loss) on
available for sale securities to be included, along with net loss, in
comprehensive loss.
29
Stock
Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised),
Share-Based Payment. Under the fair value recognition provisions of
SFAS No. 123(R), stock based compensation is measured at the grant date
based on the value of the awards and is recognized as expense over the
requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company selected the
modified prospective method of adoption described in SFAS No. 123(R); as
such, no prior periods have been restated. The Company has a policy of issuing
new shares for stock option exercises.
Advertising
The Company
expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense approximated
$27,000 and $19,000 in 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Use of
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The
determination of the Companys valuation allowance for inventory is a
significant estimate that could change materially over the next year should
circumstances affecting the Companys current sales volumes change. The calculated fair value of the warrants
issued to Discus is a significant estimate that could change materially over
the next year should there be a significant change in the market value of the
Companys common stock.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Companys cash, accounts
receivable, line of credit and accounts payable approximates their carrying
value due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Companys
preferred stock which was outstanding at December 31, 2006 approximates
fair value as its terms and yield approximates current market conditions.
Reclassifications
-
Certain amounts in the prior year have
been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such
reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss.
Issuance
of Options and Warrants
-
The Company periodically issues options and warrants
to purchase stock at a price which may be higher or lower than the strike price
of the stock on the grant date. The fair value of the options and
warrants issued is estimated at the date of the grant using the Black Scholes
pricing model. The Company recognizes the expense over the vesting period
of the options and warrants. The Company has a policy of issuing new
shares for the exercise of options and warrants.

AGREEMENTS WITH RELATED PARTIES
Roger
Dartt
The
Company renewed its employment agreement with Mr. Dartt effective June 1,
2004 and extended the term to end December 31, 2006. Under the
renewed employment agreement, Mr. Dartts base salary was $250,000 per
year, and he received a signing bonus of $166,000, which he used to purchase
250,000 shares of Company common stock at $0.33 per share pursuant to options
previously granted. Mr. Dartt agreed not to compete with the Company
for one year after termination. The employment agreement was not renewed on
December 31, 2006. Mr. Dartt continued as Chairman of the Board
for the Company until his resignation on October 31, 2007. In consideration for his continued work
during the three month period ended March 31, 2007, the Company agreed to
issue 200,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Dartt. The Company issued 200,000 restricted shares
of common stock to Mr. Dartt in August 2007 and recorded an expense
of $60,000.
Judd D.
Hoffman -
The
Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Hoffman effective January 1,
2007, naming him as the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer for a
term ending December 31, 2009. The employment agreement provides for
an annual base salary of $210,000, an increase of not less than 5% on each
anniversary date, an incentive bonus in 2007 based on profit and the option
grant to purchase 850,000 shares of stock at a price of $.20 per share.
The options vest as follows: 100,000 immediately and 250,000 vesting on
the last day of the first, second and third years of the employment term.
Additionally, in June 2006 Mr. Hoffman was granted the
30
option to purchase 100,000 shares of stock at a price
of $0.27 per share. This option grant vested on September 16,
2006. The employment agreement can be terminated for cause if Mr. Hoffman
fails to perform his duties with the Company, engages in gross misconduct in
connection with his work for the Company, commits a breach of this agreement or
commits a felonious or fraudulent act against the Company. If his
employment is terminated without cause, Mr. Hoffman is entitled to 12
months salary and any portion of stock options will immediately vest and be
exercisable for a period of 90 days.

OTHER EVENTS
License
Agreement CrownBeav LLC DirectCrown product line
On April 1, 2007, the Company entered into a
License Agreement with CrownBeav LLC, an Oregon limited liability company,
under which the Company became the nonexclusive distributor for the United
States and Canada and the exclusive distributor for the rest of the world of its
DirectCrown brand of temporary crown and bridge material. The license agreement is for a term of ten
years with automatic renewals for additional five year terms, contains minimum
requirements for sale of the products by the Company, and may be terminated (i) for
cause upon 60 days notice, (ii) upon the Companys failure to comply with
applicable securities laws, (iii) upon the occurrence of certain other
customary events of default. In full consideration,
the Company granted to CrownBeav a five year option to purchase (the Option)
1,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share. The shares subject to the Option will vest
two years from the Effective Date of the agreement. The option agreement includes a guaranteed
trading price of $0.40 per share for the 30-day period prior to vesting. Additional option shares will be granted for
the difference if the market price of the shares is below $0.40 during the
30-day period.
The Black-Scholes option pricing model was used to
determine the fair value of the options issued to CrownBeav with the following
assumptions: risk free interest rate of 4.54%; dividend yield of 0%;
volatility factors of 139%, the expected market price of the Companys common
shares over the estimated life of the option of 3.5 years. The resulting
fair value of the call option was $341,726.
The option grant vests on April 1, 2009. The option agreement includes a guaranteed
trading price of $0.40 per share for the 30-day period prior to vesting. Additional option shares will be granted for
the difference if the market price is below $0.40 during the 30-day
period. The Black-Scholes option pricing
model was used to determine the fair value of the option guarantee issued to
CrownBeav with the following assumptions:
risk free interest rate of 4.60%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility
factors of 100%, the expected market price of the Companys common shares over
the guarantee period of 2 years. The
resulting fair value of the put option was $185,000. The $526,726 fair market value of the option
(combination of call and put) was capitalized as an intangible asset and is
being recognized as a licensing fee over the 10 year period of the license.
License
Agreement Spectrum product line
.
On April 11, 2006, the Company entered into an
Exclusive License Agreement (the License Agreement) with Discus Dental
Holdings, Inc., under which the Company became the exclusive, worldwide
distributor of the proprietary dental products manufactured and sold by Discus
wholly owned subsidiary, Spectrum Dental, Inc. (Spectrum). The License
Agreement is for a term of five years, contains minimum requirements for sale
of the products by the Company, and may be terminated (i) for cause
upon 30 days notice, (ii) at certain times during the term of the License
Agreement if the Company fails to maintain positive net income for a specified
period, (iii) upon the Companys failure to comply with applicable
securities laws, (iv) if any judgment is rendered against the Company, or
it defaults on any debt, in excess of $50,000, (v) upon any change in the
Companys results of operation or condition which in the sole opinion of Discus
has or could have a material adverse effect on the Companys condition,
business, properties or prospects, and (vi) upon the occurrence of certain
other customary events of default. As full consideration, the Company granted
to Discus a ten year warrant (the Warrant) to purchase up to 2,500,000 shares
of its common stock at $0.20 per share. The shares subject to the Warrant vest
500,000 after the first year and an additional 41,667 shares on each successive
full one-month period thereafter until the fifth anniversary of the date of
grant; however vesting ceases upon the sale of Spectrum Dental to the Company
as contemplated by the Option Agreement described below. The shares subject to
the Warrant are adjusted upon the occurrence of certain events including a
stock dividend, reclassification,
31
merger and stock split, and upon the issuance of
shares for a consideration per share less than the applicable conversion price
of the Warrant, with certain exceptions for compensation paid in stock.
The fair value of the warrants issued to Discus is
estimated at the end of each period using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following assumptions used on December 31, 2006: risk
free interest rate of 4.59%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility factors of the
expected market price of the Companys common shares over the estimated life of
the warrant of 6.42 years. The calculated fair value of the warrant was
$549,530 which the Company capitalized as an intangible asset and is
recognizing as a licensing fee over the vesting period of five years.
Registration
Rights Agreement
.
Also on
April 11, 2006, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement
with Discus pursuant to which it agreed, at its own expense, to register the
shares acquired by Discus under the Warrant or the Option Agreement with the
SEC not later than April 11, 2007, and to use its reasonable best efforts
to cause the registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon
as practicable thereafter. The Company must, subject to certain specified
circumstances, maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for a
specified period of time. The Company also granted to Discus piggyback rights
for other registration statements filed by it with the SEC for the sale of its
shares.
The Registration Rights Agreement between the Company
and Discus provides that the Company shall file a shelf registration relating
to the offer and resale of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant not
later than an unspecified date in April 2007. As of the date of the
filing of this Form 10-KSB, the Company has not filed such registration
statement. The Registration Rights
Agreement requires physical or net-share settlement by delivery of registered
shares and does not specify any circumstances under which net-cash settlement
will be permitted or required and the contract does not specify how the
contract will be settled in the event that the Company is unable to deliver
registered shares. Therefore, net-cash settlement is assumed if the Company
is unable to deliver registered shares and the warrants are classified as a
liability.
Option
Agreement Spectrum product line
. On the same date as the Company entered into the
Licensing Agreement, the Company and Discus entered into a Put and Call Option
Agreement (the Option Agreement) whereby Discus has a put option to compel
the Company to purchase all the outstanding shares of capital stock of Spectrum
, and the Company has a call option to compel Discus to sell such shares, at
any time after April 11, 2007 and before the earlier to occur of the
termination or expiration of the License Agreement or five years.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may not exercise its call
option if the price at which its shares of common stock are trading, or the
average trading price of its shares during the preceding 30 day period, is less
than $0.60 per share. The exercise price of the option will be between
$2,300,000 and $2,662,537, depending on the date of exercise. The purchase
price will be paid with a combination of cash and 3,000,000 shares of Company
common stock (subject to adjustment); provided that if that aggregate value of
the specified amount of cash and the value of the stock based on the average
trading value of the Companys stock for the 30 days preceding the closing of
the Option Agreement is less than the applicable exercise price, then the
Company must issue additional shares to equal the value of the exercise price.
At the option of the parties, the exercise price can be paid in all cash;
however, if the Company first elects to exercise its call option, the method of
payment of the exercise price will be at the election of Discus. Upon the
exercise of the option, the parties are required to enter into a Stock Purchase
Agreement substantially in the form agreed to in the Option Agreement for
the purchase and sale of the Spectrum shares.
Manufacturing
Agreement Spectrum product line
The Company also entered into a Manufacturing
Agreement with Westside Packaging, Inc. (Westside) a wholly owned subsidiary
of Discus and the current manufacturer, for the manufacture of the products and
sale to the Company for distribution under the License Agreement. The products
manufactured are sold under the trademarks Contrastpm, Contrastam, FastDam and
FastTrak. The Manufacturing Agreement is for a term of three years with
automatic one year renewal terms unless either party gives notice of
non-renewal.
32
Standstill
Agreement
Effective January 16, 2007, Discus, Spectrum and Westside, on the one
hand, and the Company, on the other hand, entered into a Standstill Agreement,
in which each of the parties agreed that there are pending disputes among them
concerning the existence and/or extent of any performance issues under
agreements among them, including, without limitation, the License Agreement and
Manufacturing Agreement (collectively, the Agreements). It is the
Companys position that the Agreements are in effect. Discus has agreed
not to dispute the Companys position, but has reserved, together with the
Company, all rights, claims and/or defenses relating to the Agreements.
The parties to the Standstill Agreement have agreed to discuss potential
resolution of any disputes arising out of the Agreements. Further, the
parties have agreed that any party may terminate the Standstill Agreement by
providing the other party with 10 days written notice. The parties
further agreed that no party to the Standstill Agreement may commence any legal
action against the other party prior to termination of the Standstill
Agreement. The Standstill Agreement is dated February 1, 2007.
Sale
and Leaseback Arrangement.
On April 11, 2006, the Company sold to and leased
back from the Sepulveda Group, LLC, a California company affiliated with Discus
(Sepulveda), the 45,000 square foot building and property located in Corpus
Christi, Texas. The gross sale proceeds were $1.9 million, and the monthly rent
for the facility is $20,385 for the five year term, with a 3% yearly increase and
an option to extend the lease term for an additional five years.
The Company invested $632,744 of the sale proceeds in
a Certificate of Deposit with Texas State Bank which will be used as
replacement collateral for the loan entered into in February 2005. Of the
proceeds, $54,858 was used for a security deposit and rent for the facility,
$88,671 was used to pay the 2005 property taxes and $14,088 was used as real
estate and closing fees. The remaining $1.1 million in net proceeds were used
to reduce liabilities and for operational expenses as needed. The
gain of $778,447 on the sale of the building was recorded on the Companys
balance sheet as deferred gain on sale of building and is being recognized over
the term of the lease as a credit to rental expense. The Company recorded
a credit of $152,873 and $122,372 in
rental expense during the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31,
2006, respectively.
Amendment
to Loan Agreement
.
As a result of the sale and leaseback arrangement
described above, the Company, under its loan agreement with Texas State Bank
dated February 9, 2005 in the original principal amount of $682,000,
executed a change of collateral agreement. The loan was originally secured by a
primary lien on the Companys building and other real property, and the final
principal payment was due in full in February 2008. The Company invested
$632,744 in a Certificate of Deposit with a term of one year as collateral for
the outstanding principal remaining on the loan. The original terms of the loan
remained the same. In December 2006, the Company redeemed the
Certificate of Deposit and used proceeds as full payment of loan.

secured loan agreement with Texas State Bank in the amount of $682,000. The
loan was secured by a primary lien on the Companys building and other real
property. Interest on the loan was at the prime rate plus 1%. The
principal on the loan was payable in 35 monthly installments of $3,789 plus
interest with the final principal payment due in full in February 2008.
The funds received from this loan were used to retire the note held by Aimee

the Company invested $632,744 in a Certificate
of Deposit with a term of one year as collateral for the outstanding principal
remaining on the loan. The original terms of the loan remained the same.
In December 2006, the Company redeemed the Certificate of Deposit and used
the proceeds to pay the balance on the note.
On December 21, 2006, the Company entered into a
secured line of credit agreement with Texas State Bank. The funds
available under the line of credit were $600,000. The Company invested
$300,000 with funds drawn against the line of credit in a Certificate of
Deposit with a term of one year as collateral for the loan. Interest on
the line of credit is set at the prime rate plus 1%. The interest rate on
the line of credit was 9.25% as of December 31, 2006. The principal
on the loan was payable in
33
one payment on December 20, 2007, with interest
on the outstanding amount payable monthly. The Company borrowed an
additional $100,000 against the line of credit in December 2006. In February 2007,
Texas State Bank increased the line of credit to $800,000 using the Companys
accounts receivable and inventory as additional collateral. The terms of
the original line of credit remained the same with the exception of the payment

2007. In January 2008, the Company
renewed the secured line of credit
agreement. The terms of the original line of credit remained the same with the

Employee
Stock Option Plan
The Company currently sponsors a stock based
compensation plan as described below. Effective January 1, 2006, the
Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 123 (Revised), Share-Based Payment. Under the fair recognition
provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), stock based compensation is measured at the
grant date based on the value of the awards and is recognized as expense over
the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company selected
the modified prospective method of adoption described in SFAS No. 123(R);
as such, no prior periods have been restated. The fair values of the stock
awards recognized under SFAS No. 123(R) are determined based on each
separately vesting portion of the awards, however, the total compensation
expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The
Company has a policy of issuing new shares for stock option exercises.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R),
there was $89,383 in stock based compensation expense recorded in the twelve
month period ended December 31, 2007.
Prior to 2006, the Company accounted for stock based
compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting
Principals Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations. Under APB Opinion No. 25, no
compensation expense was recognized for stock options issued to employees
because the grant price equaled or was above the market price on the date of
grant for options issued by the Company.
34
The Company had three stock option plans for
employees, officers, directors, consultants and other key personnel which
expired prior to December 31, 2004. As of December 31,
2007, the Nonqualified Stock Option Plan has no options outstanding; the Long-Term
Incentive Plan had options outstanding to acquire 4,680 shares; and the Stock
Option Plan for Employees has no remaining options outstanding.
In May 2005, the Company adopted the 2005 Stock
Option Plan (the Plan) for employees, officers, directors, consultants and
other key personnel. When the Plan was
implemented there were options to purchase 1,000,000 shares common stock
available to be granted under the Plan.
In the first quarter of 2007, the Company increased the number of
options to purchase to 2,000,000 shares of common stock.
The Company granted 400,000 share options in June 2006
under the Plan. The share options became
exercisable at a rate of 100,000 per year beginning in September 2006. The fair value of the options issued was
estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model
with the following assumptions: risk
free interest rate of 5.14%; dividend yield of 0%, volatility factors of 238%,
the expected market price over the estimated life of the option of 6.25
years. In January 2007, the
unvested portion of this grant was cancelled.
The calculated fair value of the portion of the option grant that
remained was $26,813. The Company
recognized the full expense in 2006.
The Company granted 100,000 share options in January 2007
under the Plan. The share options became
exercisable upon the grant date. The
fair value of the options issued was estimated at the date of the grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 4.68%; dividend
yield of 0%, volatility factors of 241%, the expected market price over the
estimated life of the option of 5.5 years.
The calculated fair value of the option grant was $19,916. The Company recognized the expense in the
first quarter 2007.
Additionally, the Company granted 870,000 share
options in January 2007 under the Plan.
The share options will become exercisable at a rate of 250,000 per year
beginning in December 2007. The
fair value of the options issued was estimated at the date of the grant using
the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 4.68%, dividend
yield of 0%, volatility factors of 243%, the expected market price over the
estimated life of the option of 6 years.
The calculated fair value of the option grants was $173,567. The Company is recognizing the expense of
over the three year vesting period of the options.
The Company granted 11,000 share options in February 2007
under the Plan. The share options will
become exercisable in February 2008.
The fair value of the options issued was estimated at the date of the
grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
assumptions: risk free interest rate
4.77%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility factors of 234% the expected market
price over the estimated life of the option of 5.5 years. The calculated fair value of the option
grants was $2,188. The Company is
recognizing the expense over the vesting period of the options.
The Company granted 60,000 share options in March 2007
under the Plan. The share options will
become exercisable at a rate of 30,000 per year beginning in March 2008. The fair value of the options issued was
estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model with
the following assumptions: risk free
interest rate of 4.5%, dividend yield 0%, volatility factors of 247%, the
expected market price over the estimated life of the options of 5.75 years. The calculated fair value of the option grants
was $25,132. The Company is recognizing
the expense over the two year vesting period of the options.
As of December 31, 2007, there was $131,416 in
unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share based compensation
arrangements granted under the Plan.

6. 2007 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Incentive Plan (Equity Plan). The
Equity Plan provides for the granting of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive
Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights (or SARs), Restricted Stock,
Performance Units and Performance Shares to employees, consultants and
directors. The purpose of the Equity
Plan is to promote the success and to enhance the value of the Company by
aligning the interest of Participants with those of the Companys shareholders,
to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract, and
retain the services of outstanding individuals, upon whose judgment, interest,
and special effort the success of the Company is largely dependent. When the Equity Plan was implemented there
were 1,000,000 common shares available to be granted under the Equity
Plan. In the year ended December 31,
2007, a
37
total of 100,000 performance shares and 627,968
performance unit shares had been granted under the Equity Plan to legal and
outside consultants of the Company. The
$212,862 expense is included in other professional fees.

Uncertainties exist as to the future realization of
the deferred tax asset under the criteria set forth under FASB Statement No. 109.
The Company paid no federal income tax during 2006 or
2007.
38
The Companys investment in its foreign subsidiary is
considered to be permanently invested, and no provision for U.S. federal and
state income taxes on these translation adjustments has been provided.
FIN 48 In June 2006, FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB
Statement 109 Accounting for Income Taxes, was issued. FIN No. 48 describes accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes, and includes a recognition threshold and measurement
attribute for recognizing the effect of a tax position taken or expected to be
taken in a tax return. FIN No. 48
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN No. 48 on January 1,
2007, and the initial adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Companys
financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The tax years still open for examination by
Federal and major state agencies as of December 31, 2007 are 2003 2006.

OPERATIONS BY INDUSTRY
SEGMENT, GEOGRAPHIC AREA AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information, established standards for reporting
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and required
selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports
issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related
disclosures about products and services, and geographic areas. Operating
segments are defined as components of the enterprise about which separate
financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief
operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate
resources and in assessing performance.
The Company manufactures markets and sells high
technology dental products such as air abrasive equipment and curing lights as
well as, tooth whitening products. AMT
markets its dental products through dealers and independent distributors to
general dental practitioners and certain other dental specialists. Internationally, the Company continues to
sell its products through international distributor networks. AMT presently markets its industrial products
through independent distributors. The
reportable segments are reviewed and managed separately because selling
techniques and market environments differ from selling domestically versus
selling through international distributor networks. The remaining revenues of the Company, which
are reported as Other; represent royalty income.
The accounting policies of the business segments are
consistent with those described in Note 1.

participation of the Companys management, including the chief executive
officer and principal accounting officer, an evaluation was conducted of the
effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting based on the
framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO). Based on this evaluation, management
concluded that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was
effective as of December 31, 2007.
This Annual Report
of Form 10-KSB does not include an attestation report of the Companys
independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over
financial reporting. The managements

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires
the Companys directors, officers and persons holding more than 10% of a
registered class of the Companys equity securities to file with the SEC and
any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock may
then be listed or quoted (i) initial reports of ownership, (ii) reports
of changes in ownership and (iii) annual reports
43
of
ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Such
directors, officers and 10% stockholders are also required to furnish the
Company with copies of all such filed reports.
Based solely upon review of the copies of such reports furnished to the
Company and written representations that no other reports were required during
2007, the Company believes that all of the Companys executive officers and
directors complied with Section 16(a) reporting requirements during
2007 except that in connection with Judd Hoffmans election as a director of
the Company in November 2006, he inadvertently, at that time, failed to
file with the SEC on a timely basis, Form 3. He corrected his
mistake by filing Form 3 with the SEC on April 3, 2007.
Code of Ethics
Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethics
for our senior officers or persons performing similar functions.
