SKYLINE MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT INC - 10KSB - 20011016 - LIQUIDITY_CAPITAL
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The working capital deficiency at June 30, 2001, was approximately
($10,081,000) compared to a working capital deficiency of approximately
($3,561,000) at June 30, 2000. The increase in the working capital deficiency is
primarily the result of the reclassification of $6,874,000 of senior secured
notes payable plus accrued interest, which are due in December 2001, as a
current liability.
We have historically sustained our operations from the sale of debt and
equity securities, through institutional debt financing and through agreements
or arrangements for financing with certain key suppliers.
As of June 30, 2001, we had the following financing arrangements in place:
In December 1996, the Company entered into a Senior Credit Agreement
with the Bank of New York as trustee for the Employees Retirement Plan of
Keyspan Energy Corp. ("Keyspan") and Prospect Street NYC Discovery Fund, L.P.
("Prospect Street") (together with Keyspan, the "Institutional Investors"). The
agreement (as amended) provided for the borrowing of $4,450,000 in the form of
senior notes which accrue interest at 14% a year and require the payment of both
principal and interest on December 20, 2001. In connection with the subordinated
debt, the lenders received warrants to purchase up to 434,146 shares of common
stock at an exercise price of $4.25 per share.
On May 20, 1998, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a Senior
Secured Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with the Institutional
Investors relating to the financing of an aggregate of $2,785,000 (the
"Financing") in exchange for receipt by the Institutional Investors of senior
secured promissory notes (the "Notes") and the issuance of warrants to purchase
shares of Common Stock of the Company (the "Warrants"). The Notes, which are
payable on demand, accrue interest at 14% a year and are collateralized by
substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries not otherwise
pledged. In December 1999, Prospect Street repaid a $500,000 bank loan on behalf
of the Company. The Institutional Investors agreed to add the $500,000 to the
amount loaned by Prospect Street under the Credit Agreement. However, the amount
is subordinated to the $2,785,000. The Institutional Investors have not demanded
payment of the Notes. The Notes and the obligations under the Credit Agreement
and the Warrants are also collateralized by a pledge of the stock of the
Company's subsidiaries. In connection with the Credit Agreement, Keyspan also
received the right to appoint two members to the Company's Board of Directors.
Further, as a result of the issuance of Warrants in connection with the
Financing, the conversion rate of the Series A Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Stock") held by Prospect Street was adjusted from a conversion rate of one share
of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock to a conversion rate of 6.91
shares of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock.
The Warrants are exercisable for 94% of the fully diluted Common Stock
of the Company (after issuance) at an exercise price of $.375 per share. The
agreement provides for a cashless exercise feature, whereby the holder has the
option of reducing the aggregate number of shares received based upon the fair
market value (as defined) of the Company's stock at date of exercise. Either
exercise would result in significant dilution to existing shareholders which
could also result in an annual limitation in the future utilization of the
Company's net operating loss carryforwards.
Except for the financing facilities described above, we have no other
current arrangements in place with respect to financing. The accompanying
financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis. As reflected
in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring
losses before extraordinary items from operations and as of June 30, 2001 has a
working capital deficiency of $10,081,000 and a capital deficiency of
$7,877,000. Additionally, the Company's borrowings from institutional lenders
and investors includes borrowings which are due on demand and borrowings which
are due in December 2001. The Company is dependent on the continued forbearance
of these lenders because the Company currently does not have available funds to
fully repay these loans. The above factors give rise to substantial doubt as to
the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management has been
reviewing and reducing operating expenses and focusing on its marketing efforts
on the Empire State Building attraction. Management is hopeful that its efforts
to increase visitors to the site will be successful. The accompanying financial
statements have not been adjusted to give effect to the amount or classification
of recorded assets or the classification and amount of liabilities should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
No assurance can be given that we will be able to obtain additional
capital on acceptable terms, if at all. In such an event, this would have a
materially adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
Inflation
We believe that the impact of inflation on its operations since its
inception has not been material.
Seasonality
Our business is seasonal in nature, based in part, on higher volumes of
tourists in the New York City Metropolitan area during the spring and summer
months and during the December holiday season.

Item 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
On May 20, 1998, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a Senior
Secured Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with the Keyspan Energy Corp.
("Keyspan") and Prospect Street NYC Discovery Fund, L.P. ("Prospect Street")
relating to the financing of an aggregate of $2,785,000 (the "Financing") in
exchange for receipt by the Keyspan and Prospect Street of senior secured
promissory notes (the "Notes") and the issuance of warrants to purchase shares
of Common Stock of the Company (the "Warrants"). The Notes, which are payable on
demand, accrue interest at 14% a year and are collateralized by substantially
all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries not otherwise pledged. In
December 1999, Prospect Street repaid a $500,000 bank loan on behalf of the
Company. Keyspan and Prospect Street agreed to add the $500,000 to the amount
loaned by Prospect Street under the Credit Agreement. However, the amount is
subordinated to the $2,785,000. Keyspan and Prospect Street have not demanded
payment of the Notes. The Notes and the obligations under the Credit Agreement
and the Warrants are also collateralized by a pledge of the stock of the
Company's subsidiaries. In connection with the Credit Agreement, Keyspan also
received the right to appoint two members to the Company's Board of Directors.
Further, as a result of the issuance of Warrants in connection with the
Financing, the conversion rate of the Series A Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Stock") held by Prospect Street was adjusted from a conversion rate of one share
of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock to a conversion rate of 6.91
shares of Common Stock for each share of Preferred Stock.
The Warrants are exercisable for 94% of the fully diluted Common Stock
of the Company (after issuance) at an exercise price of $.375 per share. The
agreement provides for a cashless exercise feature, whereby the holder has the
option of reducing the aggregate number of shares received based upon the fair
market value (as defined) of the Company's stock at date of exercise. Either
exercise would result in significant dilution to existing shareholders which
could also result in an annual limitation in the future utilization of the
Company's net operating loss carryforwards.
We believe that all transactions between us and our officers, directors
and employees described above are on terms no less favorable to us than could
have been obtained from unaffiliated parties under similar circumstances.

SKYLINE MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2001
Independent Auditors' Report
To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Skyline Multimedia Entertainment, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of
SKYLINE MULTIMEDIA ENTERTAINMENT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES as at June 30, 2001 and
the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in capital deficiency
and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2001.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Skyline Multimedia Entertainment, Inc. and Subsidiaries as at June 30, 2001, and
the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows
for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2001, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
A to the financial statements, the Company has experienced significant losses
before extraordinary items in recent years and at June 30, 2001 has substantial
negative working capital and a substantial capital deficiency. Also, since a
substantial portion of the working capital deficiency is comprised of notes
payable that are currently due or will be due by December 2001, the Company is
dependent upon the continued forbearance of its principal creditors in not
demanding payment of the outstanding indebtedness. These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note A. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A - The Company
Skyline Multimedia Entertainment, Inc. ("SME") is a holding company
engaged in the development and operation of state-of-the-art
entertainment attractions and together with its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, New York Skyline, Inc. ("NYSI") and Skyline Virtual
Reality, Inc. ("SVR") are referred to as the "Company." Its first
site, which is located in the Empire State Building in New York
City, is owned and operated by NYSI which commenced operations of
its "New York Skyride" facility in December 1994. The second site,
which was located in Times Square in New York City, was owned by
SVR which had operated an interactive virtual reality entertainment
center from December 1996 to January 2001.
In December 2000, SVR was notified by its landlord of the exercise
of a cancellation clause, as provided in the lease. As a result, in
January 2001, SVR ceased its operations, returned leased game
equipment to the vendor and sold at auction certain other fully
depreciated property and equipment for approximately $65,000. The
following table presents certain operating information for SVR's
operation.

Direct operating
expenses (before
depreciation) 979,000 3,031,000
Depreciation -- 1,341,000
The Company's business is somewhat seasonal in nature, based in
part on higher volumes of tourists during the spring and summer
months and holiday seasons.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a
going-concern basis. As reflected in the accompanying financial
statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses before
extraordinary items from operations and as of June 30, 2001 has a
working capital deficiency of $10,081,000 and a capital deficiency
of $7,877,000. As further indicated in Note F, the Company's
borrowings from institutional lenders and investors includes
borrowings which are due on demand and borrowings which are due in
December 2001. The Company is dependent on the continued
forbearance of these lenders because the Company currently does not
have available funds to fully repay these loans. The above factors
give rise to substantial doubt as to the ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern. Management has been reviewing and
reducing operating expenses and focusing on its marketing efforts
on the Empire State Building attraction. Manage-ment is hopeful
that its efforts to increase visitors to the site will be
successful. The accompanying financial statements have not been
adjusted to give effect to the amount or classification of recorded
assets or the classification and amount of liabilities should the
Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SME
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Material intercompany
transactions and account balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income
(loss) by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares
during the year. Diluted per share data includes the effects of
options, warrants and convertible securities, when they are
dilutive. Because all potential common shares were either
antidilutive or nondilutive for the years ended June 30, 2001 and
2000, they are not included in the calculation of diluted per share
amounts.
Inventory
Inventory consists of clothing, souvenirs and food and is stated at
the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Property, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
Property and equipment, including assets under capital leases is
stated at cost less accumulated depreciation unless its value is
considered to be impaired, in which case a charge is recognized for
the write down of such asset to its estimated net realizable
amount. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements
are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of
the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.
Rent Expense
The Company, for financial accounting purposes, recognizes
scheduled rent increases and rent holidays over the term of the
lease using the straight-line method.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE B - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is recognized under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). The provisions of
SFAS No. 123 allow companies to either expense the estimated fair
value of employee stock options or to continue to follow the
intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB
25"), but disclose the pro forma effects on net loss and net loss
per share had the fair value of the options been expensed. The
Company has elected to continue to apply APB 25 in accounting for
its employee stock option incentive plans (see Note H).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments are comprised primarily of
demand notes and senior debt payable. Because of the financial
condition of the Company, manage- ment is unable to estimate the
fair values of these obligations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company periodically reviews all its long-lived assets whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of such assets may not be recoverable.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising costs
were $200,000 and $303,000 for the years ended June 30, 2001 and
2000, respectively.
NOTE C - Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains all of its cash with highly capitalized
financial institutions. However, since such balances often exceed
the $100,000 FDIC insurance limit, such excess is not insured.

NOTE F - Notes Payable
In December 1996, the Company entered into a Senior Credit
Agreement with the Bank of New York as trustee for the Employees
Retirement Plan of Keyspan Energy Corp. ("Keyspan") and Prospect
Street NYC Discovery Fund, L.P. ("Prospect Street") (together with
Keyspan, the "Institutional Investors"). The agreement (as amended)
provided for the borrowing of $4,450,000 in the form of senior
notes which accrue interest at 14% a year and require the payment
of both principal and interest on December 20, 2001. In connection
with the subordinated debt, the lenders received warrants to
purchase up to 434,146 shares of common stock at an exercise price
of $4.25 per share.
On May 20, 1998, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a
Senior Secured Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with the
Institutional Investors relating to the financing of an aggregate
of $2,785,000 (the "Financing") in exchange for receipt by the
Institutional Investors of senior secured promissory notes (the
"Notes") and the issuance of warrants to purchase shares of Common
Stock of the Company (the "Warrants"). The Notes, which are payable
on demand, accrue interest at 14% a year and are collateralized by
substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries
not otherwise pledged. In December 1999, Prospect Street repaid a
$500,000 bank loan on behalf of the Company. The Institutional
Investors agreed to add the $500,000 to the amount loaned by
Prospect Street under the Credit Agreement. However, the amount is
subordinated to the $2,785,000. The Institutional Investors have
not demanded payment of the Notes. The Notes and the obligations
under the Credit Agreement and the Warrants are also collateralized
by a pledge of the stock of the Company's subsidiaries. In
connection with the Credit Agreement, Keyspan also received the
right to appoint two members to the Company's Board of Directors.
Further, as a result of the issuance of Warrants in connection with
the Financing, the conversion rate of the Series A Preferred Stock
(the "Preferred Stock") held by Prospect Street was adjusted from a
conversion rate of one share of Common Stock for each share of
Preferred Stock to a conversion rate of 6.91 shares of Common Stock
for each share of Preferred Stock.

NOTE F - Notes Payable (Continued)
The Warrants are exercisable for 94% of the fully diluted Common
Stock of the Company (after issuance) at an exercise price of $.375
per share. The agreement provides for a cashless exercise feature,
whereby the holder has the option of reducing the aggregate number
of shares received based upon the fair market value (as defined) of
the Company's stock at date of exercise. Either exercise would
result in significant dilution to existing shareholders which could
also result in an annual limitation in the future utilization of
the Company's net operating loss carryforwards.

the valuation allowance are as follows:

=========== ===========
The Company has provided valuation allowances equal to its net
deferred tax assets at June 30, 2001 and June 30, 2000 due to
uncertainty of the Company being able to use this benefit to offset
future taxable income. The Company will periodically evaluate the
likelihood of realizing such asset and will adjust such amount
accordingly.
At June 30, 2001, the Company has available net operating loss
carryforwards to reduce future federal taxable income of
approximately $18,300,000 for tax reporting purposes which expire
from 2010 through 2021. Pursuant to the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, future utilization of these past losses may be
subject to certain annual limitations based on changes in the
ownership of the Company's stock that may occur.

NOTE H - Stockholders' Equity
In July 1995, the Company sold to Prospect Street 1,090,909 shares
of Series A convertible participating preferred stock, par value
$.001 per share, for $3,000,000. The preferred stock issued is
convertible into common stock of the Company at any time at a
conversion rate of 6.91 shares of common stock for each share of
preferred stock. The preferred shares are subject to both demand
and piggyback registration rights. The preferred stock has a
liquidation preference equal to $2.75 per share, but does not pay
any dividends unless declared by the Board of Directors. The
preferred stockholders are entitled to an aggregate of up to 24.9%
of the outstanding voting power of the Company which can increase
to 50.1% of the voting power if in Prospect Street's sole
discretion it becomes reasonably necessary for the protection of
its investment.
At June 30, 2001, the Company has outstanding warrants for the
purchase of 484,146 shares of common stock of which warrants to

NOTE H - Stockholders' Equity (Continued)
The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board
Opinion 25 ("APB 25") and related interpretations in accounting
for its employee stock options. Under APB 25, where the exercise
price of the Company's employee stock options equals the market
price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no
compensation is recognized.
Pro forma information regarding net income (loss) and income (loss)
per share as required by SFAS No.123 has been determined as if the
Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair
value method of that statement. Had compensation cost for the
Company's stock option plans been determined based upon the fair
value at the grant date for awards under the plans consistent with
the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the Company's loss
before extraordinary items in 2001 and 2000 would have been
approximately $(646,000) and $(2,444,000) or $(.28) per share and
($1.07) per share, respectively, and its net income (loss) in 2001
and 2000 would have been approximately $(574,000) and $202,000 or
$(.25) per share and $.09 per share, respectively. No options or
warrants were issued during 2000 and 2001.
The exercise price for warrants and options issued in connection
with services rendered by nonemployees or financing arrangements
is determined by negotiations between the Company and the third
party. Generally, warrants and options are issued to employees
with an exercise price of not less than the quoted market price of
the stock on the date of grant.
