1.            Description of Business

Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “ApolloMed”) and its affiliated physician groups are a physician-centric, integrated healthcare delivery system serving Medicare, Commercial and Medi-Cal beneficiaries in California.  ApolloMed’s physician network consists of hospitalists, primary care physicians and specialist physicians primarily through the Company’s owned and affiliated physician groups. ApolloMed operates as a medical management holding company through the following wholly-owned subsidiary management companies: Apollo Medical Management, Inc. (“AMM”), Pulmonary Critical Care Management, Inc. (“PCCM”), Verdugo Medical Management, Inc. (“VMM”) and ApolloMed ACO, Inc. (“ApolloMed ACO”). Through AMM, PCCM, and VMM, the Company manages affiliated medical groups, which consisted of ApolloMed Hospitalists (“AMH"), ApolloMed Care Clinic (“ACC”), Maverick Medical Group, Inc. (“MMG”), Los Angeles Lung Center (“LALC”), Eli Hendel, M.D., Inc. (“Hendel”), and AKM Medical Group, Inc. (“AKM”) (see Note 3.) AMM, PCCM and VMM each operate as a physician practice management company (“PPM”) and are in the business of providing management services to physician practice corporations (“PPC”) under long-term management service agreements. ApolloMedACO participates in the Medicare Shared Savings Program (“MSSP”), the goal of which is to improve the quality of patient care and outcomes through more efficient and coordinated approach among providers. 

Change in Fiscal Year

On May 16, 2014, the board of directors of the Company approved a change to the Company's fiscal year end from January 31 to March 31. The March 31, 2014 amounts included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto are unaudited.

2.        Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Principles

These condensed consolidated statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in management’s opinion, are necessary, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 8, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries AMM, ApolloMed ACO, PCCM, and VMM, its controlling interest in Aligned Healthcare, Inc. (“AHI”), which has no operations, and PPCs managed under long-term management service agreements including AMH, MMG, ACC, LALC, Hendel and AKM. Some states have laws that prohibit business entities, such as ApolloMed, from practicing medicine, employing physicians to practice medicine, exercising control over medical decisions by physicians (collectively known as the corporate practice of medicine), or engaging in certain arrangements with physicians, such as fee-splitting. In California, the Company operates by maintaining long-term management service agreements with the PPCs, which are each owned and operated by physicians, and which employ or contract with additional physicians to provide hospitalist services. Under the management agreements, the Company provides and performs all non-medical management and administrative services, including financial management, information systems, marketing, risk management and administrative support. The management agreements typically range from 10 to 20 years unless terminated by either party for cause. The management agreements are not terminable by the PPCs, except in the case of material breach or bankruptcy of the respective PPM.

Through the management agreements and the Company’s relationship with the stockholders of the PPCs, the Company has exclusive authority over all non-medical decision making related to the ongoing business operations of the PPCs. Consequently, the Company consolidates the revenue and expenses of the PPCs from the date of execution of the management agreements.

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue consists of contracted, fee-for-service, and capitation revenue. Revenue is recorded in the period in which services are rendered. Revenue is principally derived from the provision of healthcare staffing services to patients within healthcare facilities. The form of billing and related risk of collection for such services may vary by customer. The following is a summary of the principal forms of the Company’s billing arrangements and how net revenue is recognized for each.

Contracted revenue

Contracted revenue represents revenue generated under contracts for which the Company provides physician and other healthcare staffing and administrative services in return for a contractually negotiated fee. Contract revenue consists primarily of billings based on hours of healthcare staffing provided at agreed-to hourly rates. Revenue in such cases is recognized as the hours are worked by the Company’s staff and contractors. Additionally, contract revenue also includes supplemental revenue from hospitals where the Company may have a fee-for-service contract arrangement or provide physician advisory services to the medical staff at a specific facility. Contract revenue for the supplemental billing in such cases is recognized based on the terms of each individual contract. Such contract terms generally either provides for a fixed monthly dollar amount or a variable amount based upon measurable monthly activity, such as hours staffed, patient visits or collections per visit compared to a minimum activity threshold. Such supplemental revenues based on variable arrangements are usually contractually fixed on a monthly, quarterly or annual calculation basis considering the variable factors negotiated in each such arrangement. Such supplemental revenues are recognized as revenue in the period when such amounts are determined to be fixed and therefore contractually obligated as payable by the customer under the terms of the respective agreement. Additionally, the Company derives a portion of the Company’s revenue as a contractual bonus from collections received by the Company’s partners and such revenue is contingent upon the collection of third-party billings. These revenues are not considered earned and therefore not recognized as revenue until actual cash collections are achieved in accordance with the contractual arrangements for such services.

Fee-for-service revenue 

Fee-for-service revenue represents revenue earned under contracts in which the Company bills and collects the professional component of charges for medical services rendered by the Company’s contracted and employed physicians. Under the fee-for-service arrangements, the Company bills patients for services provided and receives payment from patients or their third-party payers. Fee-for-service revenue is reported net of contractual allowances and policy discounts. All services provided are expected to result in cash flows and are therefore reflected as net revenue in the financial statements. Fee-for-service revenue is recognized in the period in which the services are rendered to specific patients and reduced immediately for the estimated impact of contractual allowances in the case of those patients having third-party payor coverage. The recognition of net revenue (gross charges less contractual allowances) from such visits is dependent on such factors as proper completion of medical charts following a patient visit, the forwarding of such charts to the Company’s billing center for medical coding and entering into the Company’s billing system and the verification of each patient’s submission or representation at the time services are rendered as to the payor(s) responsible for payment of such services. Revenue is recorded based on the information known at the time of entering of such information into the Company’s billing systems as well as an estimate of the revenue associated with medical services.

Capitation revenue

Capitation revenue (net of capitation withheld to fund risk share deficits) is recognized in the month in which the Company is obligated to provide services. Minor ongoing adjustments to prior months’ capitation, primarily arising from contracted health maintenance organizations (each, an “HMO”) finalizing of monthly patient eligibility data for additions or subtractions of enrollees, are recognized in the month they are communicated to the Company. Managed care revenues of the Company consist primarily of capitated fees for medical services provided by the Company under a provider service agreement (PSA) or capitated arrangements directly made with various managed care providers including HMO’s. Capitation revenue under the PSA and HMO contracts is prepaid monthly to the Company based on the number of enrollees electing the Company as their healthcare provider. Additionally, Medicare pays capitation using a “Risk Adjustment model,” which compensates managed care organizations and providers based on the health status (acuity) of each individual enrollee. Health plans and providers with higher acuity enrollees will receive more and those with lower acuity enrollees will receive less. Under Risk Adjustment, capitation is determined based on health severity, measured using patient encounter data. Capitation is paid on an interim basis based on data submitted for the enrollee for the preceding year and is adjusted in subsequent periods after the final data is compiled. Positive or negative capitation adjustments are made for Medicare enrollees with conditions requiring more or less healthcare services than assumed in the interim payments. Since the Company cannot reliably predict these adjustments, periodic changes in capitation amounts earned as a result of Risk Adjustment are recognized when those changes are communicated by the health plans to the Company.

HMO contracts also include provisions to share in the risk for enrollee hospitalization, whereby the Company can earn additional incentive revenue or incur penalties based upon the utilization of hospital services. Typically, any shared risk deficits are not payable until and unless the Company generates future risk sharing surpluses, or if the HMO withholds a portion of the capitation revenue to fund any risk share deficits. At the termination of the HMO contract, any accumulated risk share deficit is typically extinguished. Due to the lack of access to information necessary to estimate the related costs, shared-risk amounts receivable from the HMOs are only recorded when such amounts are known. Risk pools for the prior contract years are generally final settled in the third or fourth quarter of the following fiscal year.

In addition to risk-sharing revenues, the Company also receives incentives under “pay-for-performance” programs for quality medical care, based on various criteria. These incentives, which are included in other revenues, are generally recorded in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year and are recorded when such amounts are known.

Under full risk capitation contracts, an affiliated hospital entered into agreements with several HMOs, pursuant to which, the affiliated hospital will provide hospital, medical, and other healthcare services to enrollees under a fixed capitation arrangement ("Capitation Arrangement"). Under the risk pool sharing agreement, the affiliated hospital and medical group agreed to establish a Hospital Control Program to serve the enrollees, pursuant to which, the medical group is allocated a 90% residual interest in the profit or loss, after deductions for costs to affiliated hospitals. The Company participates in the full risk programs under the terms of the PSA, whereby the Company is wholly liable for the deficits allocated to the medical group under the arrangement. The related liability is included in medical liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30 and March 31, 2014 (see "Medical Liabilities" in this Note 2, below.).

Medicare Shared Savings Program revenue

The Company through its subsidiary, ApolloMed ACO, participates in the MSSP sponsored by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”). The MSSP allows ACO participants to share in cost savings it generates in connection with rendering medical services to Medicare patients. Payments to ACO participants, if any, will be calculated by CMS on cost savings generated by the ACO participant based on a trailing 24 month medical service history. The MSSP is a newly formed program with no history of payments to ACO participants. The Company considers revenue, if any, under the MSSP, as contingent upon the realization of program savings as determined by CMS, and are not considered earned and therefore are not recognized as revenue until cash payments from CMS are received. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded no revenue related to the MSSP.

Concentrations 

The Company had three major payors during the three months ended June 30, 2014 which contributed 19.6%, 15.8% and 15.3% of net revenues, respectively, and had two major payors during the three months ended June 30, 2013 which contributed 15.8% and 15.7% of net revenues, respectively.

The Company had two major payors that accounted for 21.4%, and 9.5 % of accounts receivable, respectively, as of June 30, 2014, and two major payors that accounted for 21.7% and 9.6% of accounts receivable, respectively, as of March 31, 2014.

Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

Our cash equivalents consist of bank demand deposits and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the original purchase date.

Our marketable securities consist of our holdings in equity securities and mutual funds. These are classified as available-for-sale, which are measured each reporting period at fair value, with any unrealized change in value and realized gains or losses reflected in other comprehensive income in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Other than temporary impairments are evaluated for securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position longer than one year.

The following is a summary of cash equivalents and marketable securities:

Medical Liabilities

The Company is responsible for integrated care that the associated physicians and contracted hospitals provide to its enrollees. The Company provides integrated care to health plan enrollees through a network of contracted providers under sub-capitation and direct patient service arrangements, company-operated clinics and staff physicians. Medical costs for professional and institutional services rendered by contracted providers are recorded as cost of services in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Costs for operating medical clinics, including the salaries of medical and non-medical personnel and support costs, are also recorded in cost of services.

An estimate of amounts due to contracted physicians, hospitals, and other professional providers is included in medical liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Medical liabilities include claims reported as of the balance sheet date and estimates of incurred but not reported claims (“IBNR”). Such estimates are developed using actuarial methods and are based on many variables, including the utilization of health care services, historical payment patterns, cost trends, product mix, seasonality, changes in membership, and other factors. The estimation methods and the resulting reserves are continually reviewed and updated. Many of the medical contracts are complex in nature and may be subject to differing interpretations regarding amounts due for the provision of various services. Such differing interpretations may not come to light until a substantial period of time has passed following the contract implementation. The Company has a $20,000 per member professional stop-loss, none on institutional risk pools. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in current operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s accounting for Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. This topic also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires classification based on observable and unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.

The fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are measured on a recurring basis. The carrying amount reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. The carrying amount for borrowings under the Term Loan and the Convertible Notes approximates fair value which is determined by using interest rates that are available for similar debt obligations with similar terms at the balance sheet date.

The fair value of the warrant liability issued in connection with 2014 NNA Financing at June 30, 2014 was estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation model which used the following inputs: term of 6.7 years, risk free rate of 2.1%, no dividends, volatility of 72.2%, share price of $0.51 per share based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 50% probability of down-round financing. 

The fair value of the warrant liability at March 31, 2014 was estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation model which used the following inputs: term of 7 years, risk free rate of 2.31%, no dividends, volatility of 71.4%, share price of $0.45 per share based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 50% probability of down-round financing.

Holdback liability (see Note 3) fair value was determined based on the probability adjusted cash consideration, discounted at the Company's cost of debt.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments are presented below as of :

The following summarizes the activity of Level 3 inputs measured on a recurring basis for the three months ended June 30, 2014:

The unrealized gain on change in fair value of warrant liability is included in the accompanying condensed and consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. 

Non-controlling Interest

The non-controlling interest recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements represents the pre-acquisition equity of those PPC’s in which the Company has determined that it has a controlling financial interest and for which consolidation is required as a result of management contracts entered into with these entities. The nature of these contracts provide the Company with a monthly management fee to provide the services described above, and as such, the adjustments to non-controlling interests in any period subsequent to initial consolidation would relate to either capital contributions or distributions by the non-controlling parties as well as income or losses attributable to certain non-controlling interests.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during a certain period, and is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding during such period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period, using the as-if converted method for secured convertible notes, and the treasury stock method for options and warrants.

The following table sets forth the number of shares excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

New Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the accompanying March 31, 2014 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform them to the June 30, 2014 presentation.

3. Acquisition

In May 2014, AMM entered into a management services agreement with AKM Acquisition Corp, Inc. (“AKMA”), a newly-formed provider of physician services and affiliate of the Company owned by the Company’s CEO as physician shareholder, to manage all non-medical services for AKMA. AMM has exclusive authority over all non-medical decision making related to the ongoing business operations of AKMA and is the primary beneficiary; consequently, AMM consolidated the revenue and expenses of AKMA from the date of execution of the management services agreements. On May 30, 2014 (the “Closing Date”) AKMA entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “AKM Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of AKM Medical Group, Inc.(“AKM”), a Los Angeles, CA-based independent practice association (“IPA”) consisting of over 100 primary care and specialist physicians serving over 2,100 patients. Immediately following the closing, AKMA merged with and into AKM, with AKM being the surviving entity. Under the AKM Purchase Agreement all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of AKM was acquired for approximately $280,000, of which $140,000 was paid at closing and $136,822 (the “Holdback Liability”) is payable subject to the outcome of incurred but not reported risk-pool claims and other contingent claims that existed at the acquisition date. The acquisition allows the Company to execute on its strategy to provide high-quality, cost-efficient healthcare delivery through integrated services and network offerings.

The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the purchase date and be recorded on the balance sheet. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates.  The acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred was as follows:

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price was allocated to AKM’s net tangible assets based on their estimated fair values as of the closing date. The preliminary allocation of the total purchase price to the net assets acquired and included in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet is as follows:

Before recognizing a gain from a bargain purchase, the Company is required to reassess its identification of assets acquired and liabilities assumed to validate that all assets and liabilities that the acquirer is able to identify at the acquisition date are properly recognized. The guidance in ASC 805 requires that this additional reassessment be performed to verify that the identification and measurement of all components of the business combination were consistent with the requirements of ASC 805. Accordingly, as the purchase price allocation is preliminary and subject to reassessment, the Company will classify the goodwill bargain purchase as a contra to goodwill until it has completed its review of the procedures used to measure the included amounts, which is expected to be during the quarter ending September 30, 2014.     

The following is a summary of goodwill activity for the three months ended June 30, 2014:

Under the AKM Purchase Agreement, former shareholders of AKM are entitled to be paid the Holdback Amount of up to approximately $140,000 within 6 months of the Closing Date. No later than 30 days after the six month period, AKM will prepare a closing statement which will state the actual cash position (as defined) (“Actual Cash Position”) of AKM. If the actual cash position of AKM is less than $461,104 (the “Target Amount”), the former shareholders of AKM will pay the difference between the Target Amount and the Actual Cash Position, which will be deducted from the Holdback Amount, but in no case will exceed the amount previously paid to the former shareholders of AKM in connection with the transaction. If the Actual Cash Position exceeds the Target Amount, then that difference will be added to the Holdback Amount. Any indemnification payment made by the former shareholders of AKM will also be paid from the Holdback Amount; if the Holdback Amount is insufficient, the former shareholders of AKM are liable for paying the balance, which cannot exceed amounts previously paid to the former shareholders of AKM under the AKM Purchase Agreement. The Company determined the preliminary fair value was determined based on the cash consideration discounted at the Company's cost of debt.

Transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed as incurred. The related transaction costs expensed for the three months ended June 30, 2014 were approximately $37,000.

The results of operations for AKM are included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations from its acquisition date. The pro forma results of operations are prepared for comparative purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the results that would have occurred had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the years presented or the results which may occur in the future. The following unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 assume the AKM acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2014, and for the three months ended June 30, 2013 assume the acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2013:

From the Closing Date to June 30, 2014, revenues and net income related to AKM included the accompanying condensed and consolidated statement of operations were $179,403 and $7,580, respectively.

4. Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities consisted of the following:

5. Notes and Lines of Credit Payable

Senior Secured Note

The Company entered into a Senior Secured Note (“Note”) agreement on February 1, 2012 with SpaGus Capital Partners, LLC (“SpaGus”) an entity in which Gary Augusta, a director and shareholder of the Company, holds an ownership interest. The term of the Note provided for interest at 8.929% per annum, payments of principal of $135,000 on each of September 15, 2012 and October 15, 2012, and was secured by substantially all assets of the Company. The Company prepaid interest on the Note principal of $15,000 in accordance with the Note, and paid financing costs of $5,000 in cash and the issuance of 216,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which was valued at $25,661 at the date of issuance.

On September 15, 2012, SpaGus agreed to allow the Company to defer payment of the scheduled principal payments due on September 15 and October 15, 2012, and amended the Note effective October 15, 2012 in which SpaGus agreed to provide additional principal to the Company in the amount of $230,000. The terms of the amended Note in the amount of $500,000 provided for borrowings to bear interest at 8.0 % per annum with accrued interest payable in arrears on each of December 28, 2012, March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013, and October 15, 2013. The amended Note was to have matured October 15, 2013, and could be prepaid at any time prior to September 29, 2013. The Company paid SpaGus financing costs of 100,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock on the amendment date, which had a fair value of $50,000. On April 15, 2013, the Company issued an additional 100,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock to SpaGus required under the terms of the amended Note, which had a fair value of $45,000 at the obligation date. The Company accounted for this additional payment as a modification, which was amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the amended Note using the effective interest method. The amended Note matured and was repaid, including accrued unpaid interest, on October 16, 2013.

Medical Clinic Acquisition Promissory Notes

In connection with the September 1, 2013 acquisition of the Los Angeles, CA medical clinic, ACC issued a non-interest bearing promissory note to the seller, which was due in ten installments of $15,000 per month commencing December 1, 2013.  The Company determined the fair value of the note using an interest rate of 5.45% per annum to discount future cash flows, which was based on Moody’s Baa-rated corporate bonds at the valuation date.  The note was secured by substantially all assets of the clinic.

In connection with the January 6, 2014 acquisition of Fletcher medical clinic, ACC issued a non-interest bearing promissory note to the seller, which was due in installments of $15,000 per month for five months commencing April 1, 2014 under a non-interest bearing promissory note was secured by the assets of the clinic. The Company determined the fair value of the note using an interest rate of 5.30% per annum to discount future cash flows, which was based on Moody’s Baa-rated corporate bonds at the valuation date. The note was secured by substantially all assets of the clinic.

In connection with the December 7, 2013 acquisition of Eagle Rock medical clinic, ACC issued a non-interest bearing promissory note to the seller, which was due in installments of $10,000 per month for eight months commencing March 1, 2014 under a non-interest bearing promissory note was secured by the assets of the clinic. The Company determined the fair value of the note using an interest rate of 5.46 % per annum to discount future cash flows, which was based on based on index of Moody's Baa-rated corporate bonds at of the valuation date. The note was secured by substantially all assets of the clinic.

The Medical Clinic Acquisition Promissory Notes were repaid in connection with the equity and debt financing with NNA of Nevada, Inc. that closed on March 28, 2014 (refer to 2014 NNA Financing below).

NNA Credit Agreements

On October 15, 2013, the Company entered into a $2.0 million secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) with NNA of Nevada, Inc., (“the Lender” or “NNA”).  Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement accrued interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) three month LIBOR and (ii) 6.0 %. Interest was payable on the last business day of each successive month, in arrears, which commenced October 31, 2013, and at each month-end thereafter. The Revolving Credit Agreement required the Company to pay the Lender a facility fee, on the last business day of each month, at a per annum rate of 1.0 % of the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit commitment under the Credit Agreement. Loans drawn under the Credit Agreement were secured by all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including a security interest in the deposit accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and a pledge of the shares in the Company’s subsidiaries. The Company incurred direct costs related to the Credit Agreement aggregating $ 119,500 which were accounted for as deferred financing costs and were amortized using the straight line method to interest expense.  On December 20, 2013 the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”), which increased the revolving credit facility from $2 million to $4 million.   The proceeds of the Amended Credit Agreement were used by the Company to repay the $500,000 Note to SpaGus Apollo, LLC, and were used to pay or repay certain of the Company’s 10% Notes (see Note 6), to refinance certain other indebtedness of the Company, and for working capital and for general corporate purposes. The Amended Credit Agreement was refinanced on March 28, 2014 in connection with 2014 NNA Financing.

2014 NNA Financing

On March 28, 2014, the Company entered into certain credit and investment agreements with NNA (the “2014 NNA Financing”) which provided for a $7.0 million secured term loan (“Term Loan”), a $1.0 million secured line of credit (“Revolving Loan”), and a $2.0 million convertible note commitment (“Convertible Note”). In addition, NNA acquired 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, and certain registration rights (see Note 8). The Term Loan and Revolving Loan are secured by substantially all assets of the Company, and are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and certain of its consolidated medical corporations.

The Company determined the fair value of the proceeds of $9.0 million in part based on the following inputs for the warrant liability: term of 7 years, risk free rate of 2.31%, no dividends, volatility of 71.4%, share price of $0.45 per share and a 50% probability of down-round financing. The common stock issuance was recorded at $899,739 (a discount of $1,100,261 to the face amount), the term loan was recorded at $5,745,637 (a discount of $1,254,363 to the face amount), and a corresponding warrant liability of $2,354,624.

The Term Loan accrues interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum. The principal amount of the Term Loan is repaid on the last business day of each calendar quarter, which provides for quarterly payments of $87,500 in the first year, $122,500 in the second year, $122,500 in the third year, $175,000 in the fourth year, and $210,000 in the fifth year. The Term Loan at March 31, 2014 reflects a discount of $1,305,435 associated with the issuance of 3 million warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock (see Note 8) and payment of a fee to NNA of $80,000 of which $51,072 was considered a debt discount, $7,998 was recorded to equity, and $20,930 allocated to warrant liability was immediately recorded as interest expense. The discount will be amortized to interest expense over the expected term of the loan using the effective interest method.

The Revolving Loan will bear interest at the rate of three month LIBOR plus 6.0% per annum. No amounts were borrowed under the Revolving Loan at June 30, 2014. The Term Loan and Revolving Loan mature on March 28, 2019.

The Convertible Note commitment provides for the Company to borrow up to $2,000,000. Borrowings, if any, will bear interest at the rate of 8.0 % per annum payable semi-annually, and will be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock initially at $1.00 per share. The conversion price will be subject to adjustment in the event of subsequent down-round equity financings, if any, by the Company. The Convertible Note also requires the Company to issue 1,000,000 warrants to NNA with an exercise price of $1.00 per share (see Note 8.) These warrants become exercisable in the event the Company elects to fund the Convertible Note. The Convertible Note was funded on July 30, 2014.

The Company incurred $235,119 in third party costs related to the 2014 NNA Financing, which were allocated to the related debt and equity instruments based on their relative fair values, of which $150,101 was classified as deferred financing costs which will be deferred and amortized over the life of the loan using the effective interest method.

The 2014 NNA Financing credit agreement and the Convertible Note provide for certain financial covenants which the Company was in compliance with as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.

In addition, the 2014 NNA Financing credit agreement and the Convertible Note includes (1) certain negative covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to, among other things incur additional indebtedness, engage in future mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions, sell assets, pay dividends and distributions on or repurchase capital stock, and enter into or amend other material agreements; and (2) certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, which are set forth in more detail in the 2014 NNA Financing credit agreement and Convertible Note.

Unsecured revolving line of credit

Included in “Note and line of credit payable” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet is a $100,000 revolving line of credit with a financial institution of which $94,765 was outstanding at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014. Borrowings under the line of credit bear interest at the prime rate (as defined) plus 4.50% (7.75% per annum at June 30, 2014), interest only is payable monthly, and matures June 5, 2015. The line of credit is unsecured.

Interest expense associated with the notes and lines of credit payable consisted of the following:

6.  Convertible Notes Payable

10% Senior Subordinated Callable Convertible Notes

On October 16, 2009, the Company issued $1,250,000 of its 10% Senior Subordinated Callable Convertible Notes (the “10% Notes”). The 10% Notes were sold through a placement agent in the form of a Unit. Each Unit comprised one 10% Senior Subordinated Callable Convertible Note with a par value $25,000, and warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock.

On December 20, 2013, , the Company redeemed the 10% Notes of the Holders for cash and/or conversion into shares of the Company’s Common Stock.

8% Senior Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes due February 1, 2015

On or about February 21, 2013, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (collectively, the “Settlement Agreements”) with each of the holders of 8% Notes (each, a “8% Holder” and, collectively, the “8% Holders”). Under the Settlement Agreements, the Company agreed to redeem for cash and/or convert into shares of the Company’s common stock the 8% Notes of the 8% Holders. In February 2014 the Company redeemed and converted $150,000 in original principal amount plus accrued interest thereon, for total cash payments of approximately $106,000 and issuance of approximately182,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

9% Senior Subordinated Callable Convertible Promissory Notes due February 15, 2016

The 9% Notes bear interest at a rate of 9% per annum, payable semi-annually on August 15 and February 15, and mature February 15, 2016, and are subordinated. The principal of the 9% Notes plus any accrued yet unpaid interest is convertible at any time by the holder at a conversion price of $0.40 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and reverse stock splits. After 60 days prior notice, the Note is callable in full or in part by the Company at any time after January 31, 2015. If the Average Daily Value of Trades (“ADVT”) during the prior 90 days as reported by Bloomberg is greater than $100,000, the Note is callable at a price of 105% of the Note’s par value, and if the ADVT is less than $100,000, the 9% Notes are callable at a price of 110% of the Note’s par value.

In connection with the issuance of the 9% Notes, the holders of the 9% Notes received warrants to purchase 660,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits and stock dividends, and which are exercisable at any date prior to January 31, 2018, and were classified in equity. The fair value of the 9% Notes warrants was based on the Company’s closing stock price at the transaction date and inputs to the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Interest expense associated with the convertible notes payable consisted of the following:

7. Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Significant management judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes and the recoverability of the Company’s deferred tax assets. Such determination is based primarily on the Company’s historical taxable income, with some consideration given to the Company’s estimates of future taxable income by jurisdictions in which the Company operates and the period over which the Company’s deferred tax assets will be recoverable. Due to overall cumulative losses incurred in recent years, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state tax jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended December 31, 2010 and later. The Company’s state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and later. The Company does not anticipate any material unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

8. Stockholders’ Deficit

Common Stock Placement

On March 28, 2014, the Company entered into an equity and debt investment for up to $12.0 million with NNA of Nevada, Inc. (“NNA”). As part of the investment, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement with NNA, dated March 28, 2014 (the “Investment Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company sold NNA 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Purchased Shares”) at a purchase price of $1.00 per share. In addition with the issuance of common shares, the Company issued to NNA 1,000,000 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock for $1.00 per share. The Company used the Monte Carlo Method to value the warrants, which used the following inputs: term of 7 years, risk free rate of 2.31%, no dividends, volatility of 71.4%, share price of $0.45 per share and a 50% probability of down-round financing. The Company determined that the fair value of the shares issued was approximately $900,000, or approximately $0.45 per share. The Company also entered into a registration rights agreement (“RRA”) with NNA which requires the Company to file a registration statement to register its shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than March 28, 2015. The RRA requires the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete these actions. If the Initial Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the filing deadline the Company must pay to NNA an amount in Common Stock based upon its then fair market value, as liquidated damages equal to 1.50% of the aggregate purchase price paid by NNA.

Equity Incentive Plans  

The Company’s amended 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”) allowed the Board to grant up to 12,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and provided for awards including incentive stock options, non-qualified options, restricted common stock, and stock appreciation rights. As of June 30, 2014 there were no shares available for grant.

On April 29, 2013 the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”), pursuant to which 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock have been reserved for issuance thereunder. The Company received approval of the 2013 Plan from the Company’s stockholders on May 19, 2013. The Company issues new shares to satisfy stock option and warrant exercises under the 2013 Plan. As of June 30, 2014 there were approximately 2,400,000 shares available for future grants under the 2013 Plan.

Stock options and restricted common stock issued to non-employees as compensation for services to be provided to the Company are accounted for based upon the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair value of the option or share, whichever can be more clearly determined. The Company recognizes this expense over the period in which the services are provided.   

Share Issuances   

A summary of the Company’s restricted stock sold to employees, directors and consultants with a right of repurchase of unlapsed or unvested shares is as follows for the three months ended June 30, 2014:

Options

Stock option activity for the three months ended June 30, 2014 is summarized below:

ApolloMed ACO 2012 Equity Incentive Plan

On October 18, 2012 ApolloMed ACO’s Board of Directors adopted the ApolloMed Accountable Care Organization, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “ACO Plan”) and reserved 9,000,000 shares of ApolloMed ACO’s common stock for issuance thereunder. The purpose of the ACO Plan is to encourage selected employees, directors, consultants and advisers to improve operations and increase the profitability of ApolloMed ACO and encourage selected employees, directors, consultants and advisers to accept or continue employment or association with ApolloMed ACO.

The following table summarizes the restricted stock award in the ACO Plan during the three months ended June 30, 2014:

Warrants

Warrants consisted of the following for the three months ended June 30, 2014:

In connection with the 2014 NNA Financing debt and equity investment, NNA received warrants to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and up to 2,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits and stock dividends, and which are exercisable at any date prior to March 28, 2021. The warrants also contained down-round protection under which the exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues future common shares at a price below $0.90 per share. The Company determined that the warrants should be classified as liabilities under ASC 815-40, which requires the Company to determine the fair value of the warrants at the transaction date and at each subsequent reporting period (see Notes 2 and 5). Following the funding of the Convertible Note on July 30, 2014, additional warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share that had been issued in connection with the 2014 NNA Financing became exercisable.

Authorized stock

At June 30, 2014 the Company was authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock. The Company is required to reserve and keep available out of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock such number of shares sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding shares of the 9% Senior Subordinated Callable Notes, the exercise of all outstanding warrants exercisable into shares of common stock, and shares granted and available for grant under the Company’s 2013 Plan. The amount of shares of common stock reserved for these purposes is as follows at June 30, 2014: 

9. Commitments and Contingencies

Regulatory Matters

Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Legal

On May 16, 2014, Lakeside Medical Group, Inc. and Regal Medical Group, Inc., two independent physician associations who compete with Company in the greater Los Angeles area, filed an action against the Company and two affiliates of the Company, Maverick Medical Group, Inc. and ApolloMed Hospitalists, a Medical Corporation, in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The complaint alleged that the Company and its two affiliates made misrepresentations and engaged in other acts in order to improperly solicit physicians and patient-enrollees from Plaintiffs. The Complaint sought compensatory and punitive damages. On June 30, 2014, the Company and its affiliates filed a motion requesting the Court to stay the court proceeding and order the parties to arbitrate this dispute subject to existing arbitration agreements. On August 11, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed a request for dismissal without prejudice of the action. On August 12, 2014, the Plaintiffs served the Company and its affiliates with Demands for Arbitration before Judicial Arbitration Mediation Services in Los Angeles. The Company is currently examining the merits of the claims to be arbitrated, and it is too early to state whether the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable or remote, or to estimate the potential loss if the outcome should be negative. The Company is aware that punitive damages previously sought in the court proceeding are not available in arbitration. The Company and its affiliates are preparing a defense to the allegations and the Company intends to vigorously defend the action.

In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, the Company becomes involved in pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, most of which involve claims of medical malpractice related to medical services provided by the Company’s affiliated hospitalists. The Company may also become subject to other lawsuits which could involve significant claims and/or significant defense costs. The Company believes, based upon the Company’s review of pending actions and proceedings, that the outcome of such legal actions and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The outcome of such actions and proceedings, however, cannot be predicted with certainty and an unfavorable resolution of one or more of them could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in a future period.

Liability Insurance

The Company believes that the Company’s insurance coverage is appropriate based upon the Company’s claims experience and the nature and risks of the Company’s business. In addition to the known incidents that have resulted in the assertion of claims, the Company cannot be certain that the Company’s insurance coverage will be adequate to cover liabilities arising out of claims asserted against the Company, the Company’s affiliated professional organizations or the Company’s affiliated hospitalists in the future where the outcomes of such claims are unfavorable. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of all pending claims, including liabilities in excess of the Company’s insurance coverage, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, there can be no assurance that future claims will not have such a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Although the Company currently maintains liability insurance policies on a claims-made basis, which are intended to cover malpractice liability and certain other claims, the coverage must be renewed annually, and may not continue to be available to the Company in future years at acceptable costs, and on favorable terms.

Consulting Agreement

In June 2014, the Company entered into a consulting arrangement with Bridgewater Healthcare, LLC, in which Mr. Mitchell R. Creem will provide CFO services to the Company in return for cash compensation of $10,000 per month and 5,000 vested options per month with an exercise price of $1.00 per share effective May 20, 2014.

10. Subsequent Events

Acquisition 

On July 22, 2014, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of July 21, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Target (as defined below), the shareholders of the Target (the “Sellers”) and an affiliate in which the sole physician shareholder is Warren Hosseinion, M.D., the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the “Affiliate”) of Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), the Affiliate acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of a medical group that provides professional medical services in Los Angeles County, California (the “Target”). The shares of the Target were acquired from the Sellers. The purchase price for the shares was (i) $2,000,000 in cash, (ii) $362,646 to pay off and discharge certain indebtedness of the Target, (iii) warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and (iv) a contingent amount of up to $1,000,000 payable, if at all, in cash. The acquisition was funded by an intercompany loan from AMM, which also provided an indemnity in favor of one of the Sellers relating to certain indebtedness of the Target that remained outstanding following the closing of the acquisition. Following the acquisition of the Target by the Affiliate, the Affiliate was merged with and into the Target, with the Target being the surviving corporation.

In connection with the acquisition of the Target, AMM entered into a management services agreement with the Affiliate on July 21, 2014. As a result of the Affiliate’s merger with and into the Target, the Target is now the counterparty to this management services agreement and bound by its terms. Pursuant to the management services agreement, AMM will manage all non-medical services for the Target and will have exclusive authority over all non-medical decision making related to the ongoing business operations of the Target, and is the primary beneficiary of the Target, and the financial statements of the Target will be consolidated as a variable interest entity with those of the Company from the date of the management services agreement.

Stock-based compensation 

In July 2014 the Company issued 200,000 options to acquire the common shares of the Company to Warren Hosseinion, M.D., the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; 200,000 options to acquire the common shares of the Company to Gary Augusta, the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board; and 100,000 options to acquire the common shares of the Company to Adrian Vazquez, M.D., a senior executive with the Company. Each option grant has an exercise price of $1.00 per share and will vest evenly on monthly basis over 36 months from the date of grant.

Overview

Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. and its affiliated physician groups (“ApolloMed”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) are a physician centric, integrated healthcare delivery system serving Medicare, Commercial and Medi-Cal beneficiaries in California. ApolloMed’s businesses operate primarily under risk and value-based contracts with health plans, Independent Physician Associations (“IPAs”), Hospitals and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (“CMS”) Medicare Shared Savings Program. We believe each major constituent of the healthcare delivery system, including patients, families, primary care physicians, specialists, acute care hospitals, alternative sites of inpatient care, physician groups and health plans can benefit from better coordinated care. We are positioned to assist and provide “Best in Class” care coordination services to each of these constituents and assist in finding solutions to many of the challenges associated with patient care in the inpatient and outpatient settings.

ApolloMed was incorporated in California in 2001, beginning operations at Glendale Memorial Hospital as a hospital based physician group. The Company was organized around the admission and care of patients at inpatient facilities such as a hospital. We have successfully grown our inpatient strategy in a competitive market by providing high quality care for our patients and innovative solutions for our hospital and managed care clients by focusing on improving the inefficiencies associated with inpatient care, reducing readmissions and improving outcomes through better care coordination. Currently, we provide inpatient services at over 28 hospitals and long-term acute care facilities in Los Angeles and Central California where we have contracted with over 50 hospitals, IPAs and health plans to provide a range of inpatient services including hospitalist, intensivist, physician advisor and consulting services.

In 2012, the Company formed an Accountable Care Organization (“ACO”), ApolloMed ACO, to participate in CMS’ Medicare Shared Savings Program. The ACO program is designed to work together with payors by aligning provider incentives. This alignment of provider incentives is intended to improve quality and medical outcomes for patients across the ACO and achieve cost savings for Medicare. We believe ApolloMed ACO is unique in that it leverages our best in class inpatient and outpatient capabilities. 

Recent Developments

On March 28, 2014, the Company entered into certain credit and investment agreements with NNA of Nevada, Inc. (the “NNA”) which provided for a $7.0 million secured term loan, a $1.0 million secured line of credit, and a $2.0 million convertible note commitment. In addition, NNA acquired 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants to acquire the Company’s common stock, and certain registration rights. The term loan and revolving loan are secured by substantially all assets of the Company, and are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries and certain of its consolidated medical corporations.

On May 16, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a change to the Company's fiscal year end from January 31 to March 31.  The Company elected to change its fiscal year end in order to simplify business processes and to align the Company’s fiscal year with the reporting periods for other healthcare services reporting companies to allow for easier comparison and industry coverage.

In May 2014, AMM entered into a management services agreement with AKM Acquisition Corp, Inc. (“AKMA”), a newly-formed provider of physician services and affiliate of the Company solely owned by the Company’s CEO as physician shareholder, to manage all non-medical services for AKMA. AMM has exclusive authority over all non-medical decision making related to the ongoing business operations of AKMA and consequently, consolidated the revenue and expenses of AKMA from the date of execution of the management services agreements. On May 30, 2014 (the “Closing Date”) AKMA entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “AKM Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of AKM Medical Group, Inc.(“AKM”), a Los Angeles, CA-based independent practice association (“IPA”) consisting of over 100 primary care and specialist physicians serving over 2,100 patients. Immediately following the closing, AKMA merged with and into AKM, with AKM being the surviving entity. Under the AKM Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of AKM for approximately $280,000, of which $140,000 was paid at closing and $136,822 is payable (the “Holdback Liability” Amount) subject to the outcome of incurred but not reported risk-pool claims and other contingent claims that existed at the acquisition date. The acquisition allows the Company to execute on its strategy to provide high-quality, cost-efficient healthcare delivery through integrated services and network offerings.

On July 22, 2014, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of July 21, 2014 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Target (as defined below), the shareholders of the Target (the “Sellers”) and an affiliate in which the sole physician shareholder is Warren Hosseinion, M.D., the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the “Affiliate”) of Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), the Affiliate acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of a medical group that provides professional medical services in Los Angeles County, California (the “Target”). The shares of the Target were acquired from the Sellers. The purchase price for the shares was (i) $2,000,000 in cash, (ii) $362,646 to pay off and discharge certain indebtedness of the Target, (iii) warrants to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and (iv) a contingent amount of up to $1,000,000 payable, if at all, in cash. The acquisition was funded by an intercompany loan from AMM, which also provided an indemnity in favor of one of the Sellers relating to certain indebtedness of the Target that remained outstanding following the closing of the acquisition. Following the acquisition of the Target by the Affiliate, the Affiliate was merged with and into the Target, with the Target being the surviving corporation.

In connection with the acquisition of the Target, AMM entered into a management services agreement with the Affiliate on July 21, 2014. As a result of the Affiliate’s merger with and into the Target, the Target is now the counterparty to this management services agreement and bound by its terms. Pursuant to the management services agreement, AMM will manage all non-medical services for the Target and will have exclusive authority over all non-medical decision making related to the ongoing business operations of the Target, and is the primary beneficiary of the Target, and the financial statements of the Target will be consolidated as a variable interest entity with those of the Company from the date of the management services agreement.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to three months ended June 30, 2013

The Company’s results of operations were as follows for the three months ended June 30:

The following table sets forth consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30 stated as a percentage of net revenues:

Net revenues are comprised of net billings under the various fee structures from health plans, medical groups/IPA’s and hospitals, and income from service fee agreements. The increase (decrease) was attributable to: 

Cost of services are comprised primarily of physician compensation and related expenses. The increase (decrease) was attributable to:

Cost of services as percentage of net revenues decreased principally due to lower stock-based compensation, partially offset by higher medical costs associated with ACC’s clinic operation and higher proportion of Medi-Cal patient lives added to MMG for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

General and administrative expenses include all non-physician salaries, benefits, supplies and operating expenses, including billing and collections functions, and our corporate management and overhead not specifically related to the day-to-day operations of our physician group practices. The Company is also funding initiatives associated with establishment of ApolloMed ACO which had no revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase (decrease) in general and administrative expenses was attributable to:

Loss from operations decreased due to lower stock-based compensation totaling $1,433,165, partially offset by the higher cost of medical services in ACC and MMG, and an increase in legal and professional fees. 

Interest expense increased in 2014 primarily due to higher interest expense due to an increase in borrowings primarily related to the 2014 NNA financing.

Net loss attributable to Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. decreased primarily due to lower stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by higher cost of medical services in ACC and MMG and an increase in spending legal and professional fees. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2014, the Company had cash equivalents and marketable securities of $6.2 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of $6.8 million at March 31, 2014. At June 30, 2014 the Company had borrowings totaling $6.7 million compared to borrowings at March 31, 2014 of $6.7 million.

The Company incurred the following net operating loss and cash used in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014: 

The Company’s accumulated and stockholders’ deficit at June 30, 2014 was as follows: 

To date the Company has funded its operations from internally generated cash flow and external sources, including the proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity securities which have provided funds for near-term operations and growth. On March 28, 2014, the Company entered into an equity and debt arrangement with NNA to provide $12,000,000 in funding, which included $2,000,000 investment in Company common stock, $8,000,000 in term and revolving loans, and a $2,000,000 convertible note commitment. The Company refinanced its existing indebtedness under the prior NNA $4,000,000 credit agreement, and intends to use the remaining proceeds for working capital, acquisitions, and general corporate purposes. The Company believes its current cash balances, coupled with cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient to meet its working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. If the need for financing arises, the Company cannot assure that it will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

Three months ended June 30, 2014

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, cash used in operating activities was $1,098,443. This was the result of net losses of $1,677,741 offset by cash provided by non-cash expenses of $268,732 and change in working capital of $140,359. Non-cash expenses primarily include depreciation expense, issuance stock-based compensation expense, amortization of financing costs, and accretion of debt discount.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, net cash used in financing activities was $175,000 related to principal payments on the term loan.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.  We believe that our critical accounting policies are limited to those described in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2014. 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements. 

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2014, in accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014.

We have identified the following three material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures:

1. We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures, and concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

2. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible.  Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures, and concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

3. We do not have review and supervision procedures for financial reporting functions. The review and supervision function of internal control relates to the accuracy of financial information reported. The failure to review and supervise could allow the reporting of inaccurate or incomplete financial information. Due to our size and nature, review and supervision may not always be possible or economically feasible.

Based on the foregoing material weaknesses, we have determined that, as of June 30, 2014, our internal controls over our financial reporting are not effective. The Company is taking remediating steps to address each material weakness. We continue to add employees and consultants to address these issues and we will continue to broaden the scope of our accounting and billing capabilities and realign responsibilities in our financial and accounting review functions.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the two month period ended June 30, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On May 16, 2014, Lakeside Medical Group, Inc. and Regal Medical Group, Inc., two independent physician associations who compete with Company in the greater Los Angeles area, filed an action against the Company and two affiliates of the Company, Maverick Medical Group, Inc. and ApolloMed Hospitalists, a Medical Corporation, in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The complaint alleged that the Company and its two affiliates made misrepresentations and engaged in other acts in order to improperly solicit physicians and patient-enrollees from Plaintiffs. The Complaint sought compensatory and punitive damages. On June 30, 2014, the Company and its affiliates filed a motion requesting the Court to stay the court proceeding and order the parties to arbitrate this dispute subject to existing arbitration agreements. On August 11, 2014, the Plaintiffs filed a request for dismissal without prejudice of the action. On August 12, 2014, the Plaintiffs served the Company and its affiliates with Demands for Arbitration before JAMS in Los Angeles. The Company is currently examining the merits of the claims to be arbitrated, and it is too early to state whether the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is probable or remote, or to estimate the potential loss if the outcome should be negative. The Company is aware that punitive damages previously sought in the court proceeding are not available in arbitration. The Company and its affiliates are preparing a defense to the allegations and the Company intends to vigorously defend the action.
