NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

First Choice Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (“FCHS,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is actively engaged in implementing a defined growth strategy aimed at building a network of localized, integrated healthcare services platforms comprised of non-physician-owned medical centers of excellence, which concentrate on treating patients in the following specialties: Orthopaedics, Spine Surgery, Interventional Pain Medicine, Physical Therapy and related diagnostic and ancillary services in key expansion markets throughout the U.S.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries: First Choice Medical Group of Brevard LLC, Marina Towers, LLC, FCID Medical Inc., TBC Holdings of Melbourne, Inc., CCSC Holdings, Inc. and Crane Creek Surgical Partners, LLC, along The B.A.C.K. Center which has been determined to be a variable interest entity (VIE). All significant intercompany balances and transactions, including those involving the VIE, have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2018 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2018 or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K on April 2, 2018.

 

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, provision against bad debt, the fair value of the Company’s stock, and stock-based compensation. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Revenue recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue recognition accounting standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and codified in the ASC as Topic 606 (“ASC 606”). The revenue recognition standard in ASC 606 outlines a single comprehensive model for recognizing revenue as performance obligations, defined in a contract with a customer as goods or services transferred to the customer in exchange for consideration, are satisfied. The standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding the Company’s revenue recognition policies and significant judgments employed in the determination of revenue.

 

The Company applied the modified retrospective approach to all contracts when adopting ASC 606. As a result, at the adoption of ASC 606 what was previously classified as the provision for bad debts in the statement of operations is now reflected as implicit price concessions (as defined in ASC 606) and therefore included as a reduction to net operating revenues in 2018. For changes in credit issues not assessed at the date of service, the Company will prospectively recognize those amounts in other operating expenses on the statement of operations. For periods prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the provision for bad debts has been presented consistent with the previous revenue recognition standards that required it to be presented separately as a component of net operating revenues.

Patient service revenue

 

Our revenues generally relate to net patient fees received from various payers and patients themselves under contracts in which our performance obligations are to provide services to the patients. Revenues are recorded during the period our obligations to provide services are satisfied. The contractual relationships with patients, in most cases, also involve a third-party payer (Medicare, Medicaid, managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies, including plans offered through the health insurance exchanges) and the transaction prices for the services provided are dependent upon the terms provided by (Medicare and Medicaid) or negotiated with (managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies) the third-party payers. The payment arrangements with third-party payers for the services we provide to the related patients typically specify payments at amounts less than our standard charges and generally provide for payments based upon predetermined rates for services or discounted fee-for-service rates. Management continually reviews the contractual estimation process to consider and incorporate updates to laws and regulations and the frequent changes in managed care contractual terms resulting from contract renegotiations and renewals.

 

Rental Revenue

 

In addition to housing our corporate headquarters and First Choice Medical Group, the building leases 38,334 square feet of commercial office space to non-affiliated tenants. Our corporate headquarters and FCID Medical offices currently utilize 4,274 square feet on the fifth floor of Marina Towers; and First Choice Medical Group, including its MRI center and physical therapy center, currently occupies 21,902 square feet on the ground, first and second floors.

 

Concentrations of credit risk

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to a concentration of customer risk and accounts receivable risk. Occasionally, the Company’s cash in interest-bearing accounts may exceed FDIC insurance limits. The financial stability of these institutions is periodically reviewed by senior management. Revenues and accounts receivable are concentrated between two major payers with the approximate risk level outlined below.

 

Concentration of Risk
Revenue Concentration:                
      Three months ended September 30,
    2018   2017
Medicare     31.2 %     33.8 %
Commercial Payor 1     17.4 %     18.0 %
Commercial Payor 2           10.7 %
                 
      Nine Months ended September 30,

Medicare     24.4 %     20.6 %
Commercial Payor 1           15.3 %
Commercial Payor 2     13.1 %     13.8 %

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivables are carried at their estimated collectible amounts net of doubtful accounts. The Company analyzes its history and identifies trends for each major payer sources of revenue to estimate the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and provision for bad debts. Management regularly reviews data about these major payer sources of revenue in evaluating the sufficiency of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Patient Receivables: Accounts receivables due for services provided to patients who have third-party coverage, such as an insurance company or government sponsored healthcare programs or directly from patients. We continually monitor collections from our payors and maintain an allowance for bad debts based upon specific payor collections issues that we have identified and our historical experience.

 

Rental Receivables: Accounts receivables from rental activities are periodically evaluated for collectability in determining the appropriate allowance for bad debts.

 

Net (loss) income per share

 

Basic net (loss) income per common share is based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per common share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding and computed as follows:

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on vesting dates and interim financial reporting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded by the Company in the same expense classifications in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, as if such amounts were paid in cash. Upon exercise of a common stock equivalent, the Company issues new shares of common stock out of its authorized shares.

Segment information

 

Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein represents all the material financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segments. (See Note 11 – Segment Reporting).

 

Treasury Stock

 

The Company uses the cost method when it purchases its own common stock as treasury shares and displays treasury stock as a reduction of shareholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2018, the Company canceled all of its outstanding treasury stock.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period’s data to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on reported net income or losses.

 

Litigation Claims and Assessments

 

From time to time, we may become involved in lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business including potential disputes with patients. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. Our contracts with hospitals generally require us to indemnify them and their affiliates for losses resulting from negligence of our physicians. Currently, we have no pending litigation that is deemed to be material to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” to supersede previous revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP. The guidance presents a single five-step model for comprehensive revenue recognition that requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Two options are available for implementation of the standard which is either the retrospective approach or cumulative effect adjustment approach. The guidance becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 using the modified retrospective transition method in the first quarter of 2018 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases except for short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15—Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 provides guidance for eight specific cash flow issues with respect to how cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statements of cash flows, with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. The effective date for ASU 2016-15 is for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 in the first quarter of 2018 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 in the first quarter of 2018 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments.

 

As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value because of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception.

 

Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of adoption of ASU 2017-11 on its financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Stock Compensation (Topic 718); Improvements to Non-employer Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendment aligns the accounting for share based payments issued to employees and non-employees. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-07 on its financial statements.

 

Subsequent events

 

The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed.

 

NOTE 3 – LIQUIDITY

 

The Company believes that the current cash balance and line of credit with CT Capital, LTD (See Note 4), along with continued execution of its business development plan, will allow the Company to further improve its working capital; and currently anticipates that it will have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow requirements through the date at least one year from the filing of this report.

However, to execute the Company’s business development plan, which there can be no assurance we will achieve, the Company may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means and potentially reduce operating expenditures. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its business development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs to conserve its cash.

NOTE 9 — VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

 

Brevard Orthopaedic Spine & Pain Clinic, Inc.

 

The Company has determined that The B.A.C.K. Center is a VIE . In evaluating whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, the Company considers the purpose for which the VIE was created, the importance of each of the activities in which it is engaged and the Company’s decision-making role, if any, in those activities that significantly determine the entity’s economic performance as compared to other economic interest holders. This evaluation requires consideration of all facts and circumstances relevant to decision-making that affects the entity’s future performance and the exercise of professional judgment in deciding which decision-making rights are most important.

 

In determining whether the Company has the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE, the Company evaluates all its economic interests in the entity, regardless of form (debt, equity, management and servicing fees, and other contractual arrangements). This evaluation considers all relevant factors of the entity’s structure, including: the entity’s capital structure, contractual rights to earnings (losses), subordination of our interests relative to those of other investors, contingent payments, as well as other contractual arrangements that have potential to be economically significant.

 

The evaluation of each of these factors in reaching a conclusion about the potential significance of the Company’s economic interests is a matter that requires the exercise of professional judgment. The assets of The B.A.C.K. Center can only be used to settle obligations of the VIE, additionally, creditors of The B.A.C.K. Center do not have recourse against the general credit of the primary beneficiary.

In evaluating whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, the Company considers the purpose for which the VIE was created, the importance of each of the activities in which it is engaged and the Company’s decision-making role, if any, in those activities that significantly determine the entity’s economic performance as compared to other economic interest holders.

 

This evaluation requires consideration of all facts and circumstances relevant to decision-making that affects the entity’s future performance and the exercise of professional judgment in deciding which decision-making rights are most important.

 

In determining whether the Company has the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE, the Company evaluates all its economic interests in the entity, regardless of form (debt, equity, management and servicing fees, and other contractual arrangements). This evaluation considers all relevant factors of the entity’s structure, including: the entity’s capital structure, contractual rights to earnings (losses), subordination of our interests relative to those of other investors, contingent payments, as well as other contractual arrangements that have potential to be economically significant. The evaluation of each of these factors in reaching a conclusion about the potential significance of the Company’s economic interests is a matter that requires the exercise of professional judgment.

NOTE 11 — SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Company reports segment information based on the “management” approach. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company’s reportable segments. The Company has three reportable segments: FCID Medical, Inc., The B.A.C.K. Center and CCSC Holdings, Inc. (“CCSC”).

 

All reportable segments derive revenue for medical services provided to patients; and The B.A.C.K Center additionally derives revenue for subleasing space within its building and medical services provided to patients. With the sale and leaseback of Marina Towers on March 31, 2016, the Company will no longer report segmented rental revenue received from third-party Marina Tower tenants under the segment heading “Marina Towers.” Rather, the Company has consolidated rental revenue received from third-party tenants of Marina Towers under the “Corporate” segment.

 

Information concerning the operations of the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements reflect the current view about future events. When used in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q relating to our business strategy, our future operating results, and our liquidity and capital resources outlook. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward–looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees of assurance of future performance. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the execution of our strategy to grow our business by hiring additional physicians to create Medical Centers of Excellence that fit our defined criteria; evolving healthcare laws and regulations; changes in the rates or methods of third-party reimbursements for medical services; accelerated pace of consolidation in the hospital industry; changes in our medical technology as it relates to our services and procedures; any failures in our information technology systems to protect the privacy and security of protected information and other similar cyber security risks; our ability to raise capital to fund continuing operations; and other factors relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations and any new Medical Centers of Excellence that we may open. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned.

 

Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Net patient service revenue accounted for $9,115,267 of total revenue in 2018, and rental revenue was $588,306. This compared to net patient service revenue of $7,127,045 and rental revenue of $561,448 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase primarily was attributable to First Choice Medical Group (“FCMG”) increase by $749,624 or 25%, Brevard Orthopedic Spine & Pain Clinic, Inc. (“The B.A.C.K. Center”) increase by $616,935 or 20% and Crane Creek Surgical Center (“Center”) increase by $621,664 or 62% for the same period last year, after factoring provision for doubtful accounts. Rental revenue increased by $26,858, totaling $588,306 and $561,448 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses include the following:

 

    Three Months Ended September 30, 2018   Three Months Ended September 30, 2017

The major components of operating expenses include practice salaries and benefits, practice supplies and other operating costs, depreciation and general and administrative expenses, which included legal, accounting and professional fees associated with being a public entity.

 

Salaries and benefits increased 33% to $5,440,822 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $4,087,880 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to the addition of physicians, physician assistants and physical therapy professional personnel in the later part of 2017 and first quarter of 2018. Other operating expenses increased 6% to $2,749,769 from $2,595,447 due to the increase in patient service volume from 2017 to 2018 stemming from the addition of new personnel and one-time expenses related to setting up new physical therapy locations.

 

General and administrative expenses was $1,506,915 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to $1,374,798 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $132,117. The increase in spending is primarily related to legal costs associated with planned acquisitions and recruitment and retention of providers.

 

23  

 

 

Depreciation and amortization decreased 37.7% from $361,680 reported for the three months ended September 30, 2017 to $225,495 reported for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to decreased depreciation expense relating to the Company’s aging equipment.

 

Net Loss from Operations

 

Net loss from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2018 totaled $219,429, which compared to a loss from operations of $731,312 for the prior year. The reduction is a result of the increased revenue, net of increased operating expenses discussed above.

 

Interest Income (expense)

 

Interest income increased to $13,105 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which compared to interest expense of $27,625 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase primarily is due to short term interest received from cash accounts as compared to the same period last year and the payoff of the Company’s equipment loans for diagnostic imaging equipment.

 

Net Loss attributable to FCHS Shareholders

 

As a result of all the above, we reported net loss of $(263,587) for the three months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to net loss from $(440,398) reported for the same year period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2018, we had cash of $7,677,797 and accounts receivables, net totaling $11,231,760. This compared to cash of $2,695,482 and accounts receivable, net of $11,119,757 for the same period in 2017.

 

The Company believes that the current cash balance and line of credit available with CT Capital, LTD as of September 30, 2018, along with continued execution of its business development plan, will allow the Company to further improve its working capital; and currently anticipates that it will have sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow requirements through the date at least one year from the filing of this report.

 

However, in order to execute the Company’s business development plan, which there can be no assurance we will achieve, the Company may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means and potentially reduce operating expenditures. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its business development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs to conserve its cash.

 

Net cash used in our operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 totaled $1,062,901, which compared to net cash used in our operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 of $1,118,499. The decrease in cash used for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was due primarily to our 2018 net income as compared to a net loss in 2017 and our net increase in our operating liabilities of $418,179 as compared to a net increase of $564,036 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 partially offset by our growth in accounts receivables.

 

Net cash flows used in investing activities was $1,068,564 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $281,618 used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Investing activities for 2018 was comprised of $400,000 to acquire an additional 25% interest in Crane Creek, $685,964 to purchase equipment and proceeds from sale of equipment of $17,400 as compared to $281,618 to purchase equipment in same period, prior year.

 

Net cash provided in financing activities was $7,776,986 for nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $6,024,152 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The cash flows used in our financing activities were the result of:

Our aim is to distinguish our Medical Centers of Excellence from our competition by earning our Centers’ reputations as premier destinations for clinically superior, patient-centric care which is coordinated across our patients’ entire care continuums. By doing so, we deliver more meaningful and collaborative doctor-patient experiences, provide more accurate diagnoses resulting from care coordination, effective treatment plans, faster recoveries, and materially reduced costs.

 

 Our strategic focus is to grow and partner with Steward Healthcare to expand our orthopaedic and spine care delivery platform into Steward’s 35 nationwide hospital systems. Currently we are utilizing two Steward facilities and are in the process of evaluating the next hospital to implement our targeted delivery platform.

 

26  

 

 

On February 6, 2018, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Steward Health Care System, LLC (“Steward”). As part of the strategic partnership, Steward made an investment into the Company in the amount of $7.5 million for 5 million shares, allowing the Company to continue to expand its business model and geographic footprint nationally. On March 1, 2018, the Company issued five (5) million shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds of $7.5 million.

 

Our business model is centered on our team of employed and contracted physicians constituting a “group practice” under The Ethics in Patient Referral Act of 1989, as amended (more commonly known as the Stark Law), thereby permitting us to optimize revenue generation from both physicians and ancillary services, while also providing our employed care providers with the ability to utilize our on-site diagnostic and ancillary services. Physician-owned practices, on the other hand, may be subject to prevailing federal regulations (e.g., The Ethics in Patient Referral Act of 1989, as amended; more commonly known as the “Stark Law”), which may limit their ability to refer patients for certain healthcare services provided by entities in which a physician-owner(s) has a financial interest.

 

Our growth will be fueled by hiring best-in-class Orthopaedic physicians currently practicing in our target expansion markets. We will identify physicians in those markets that are seeking an alternative to owning and operating their own private practices or being employed by local hospitals. As necessary we will add diagnostic and ancillary services, to include an ambulatory surgery center, MRI, X-Ray, DME, Lab testing and PT/OT will also be added to these platforms.

 

We believe that our centralized system of operations will continue to allow us to achieve measurable cost and productivity efficiencies as we expand the number of centers and platforms we own and operate. We have specifically designed our centralized back office system to alleviate staff physicians from business administrative responsibilities associated with operating a medical practice or clinic, enabling them to focus strictly on caring for our patients (allowing “Doctors to be Doctors”). This is extremely attractive to physicians who own and manage their own private practices or clinics and devote valuable time and resources towards addressing business concerns – time and resources that might otherwise be spent on treating their patients.

 

There can be no assurance that our cash flow will increase in the near future from anticipated new business activities, or that revenues generated from our existing operations will be sufficient to allow us to continue to pursue new customer programs or profitable ventures.

 

Inflation

 

Our opinion is that inflation has not had, and is not expected to have, a material effect on our operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

At September 30, 2018, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Footnote 2 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

27  

 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective   to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2018, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors reported in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2017.
