INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Apollo Medical Holdings Inc.

Glendale, California

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Southern California Heart Centers, a Medical Corporation (the Company) in California, which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Southern California Heart Centers, a Medical Corporation, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Subsequent Event

 

As discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, on July 22, 2014, the Company sold all the outstanding shares of the Company. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Business Activity

Southern California Heart Centers (Company) was established in 1997 and provides cardiac clinic care and diagnostic testing. The Company has three locations: San Gabriel, Los Angeles and Industry. The Company also owns and operates Synergy Imaging Center offering patients magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography scanning, ultrasound, digital x-ray imaging, and nuclear imaging.

 

Accounts Receivables

Trade accounts receivable is recorded net of an allowance for medical billing adjustments. The allowance is estimated from historical collections experience and projections of trends.

 

Statement of Cash Flows

For the purposes for the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Revenue Recognition

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.

 

The Company has contracts with various individual practice associations and health maintenance organizations (HMO), preferred provider organizations (PPO), Medicare, and Medi-Cal. Revenues are reduced for contractual adjustments at the time of recognition for contracts the Company has with third-party payors and at the time of payment for those third-party payors that do not have a contract with the Company. For private pay patients, bad debt expense is recognized based on historical collection ratios.

 

The recognition of net fee-for-service revenue (gross charges less contractual allowances and bad debt) 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.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Other income is primarily incentive payments received by the Company from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services for its demonstration of meaningful use every year. Incentive payments are recognized upon demonstration of meaningful use and receipt of incentives.

 

Property, Equipment and Depreciation

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Routine repairs and maintenance are charged to expense. Depreciation is provided by using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful asset lives:

 

    Years
Office furniture, fixtures, computers and software   5-7
Medical equipment   5-7
Leasehold improvements   39

 

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $38,956 and $114,999, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

The Corporation has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter “S” of the Internal Revenue Code. Under these provisions, the Corporation does not pay Federal or state corporate taxes. Therefore, no provisions of income taxes have been recorded in these financial statements. Instead, the stockholders are liable for individual Federal and state income taxes on their respective shares of the Corporation’s income, even though this income is not distributed. In addition to income taxes to stockholders, for California state tax purposes, an S corporation is taxed at the higher of 1.5% of taxable income or a minimum tax.

 

Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The Company recognizes tax benefits only to the extent that the Company believes it is "more likely than not" that its tax positions will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company has not been examined by taxing authorities. However, the Company's tax returns are generally still open for examination by tax authorities for three years after they are filed. Management believes that all of its tax positions will be sustained if examined by taxing authorities, therefore no additional tax liabilities or related penalties and interest due to uncertain tax positions have been recorded.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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 could differ from those estimates.

New Pronouncements

In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update were effective for the Company on January 1, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 did not have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

 

In March 2014, the FASB issued ASU No 2014-07, Consolidation (Topic 810) - Applying Variable Interest Entities Guidance to Common Control Leasing Arrangements. The new accounting standard allows a private company to elect, when certain conditions exist, not to apply the variable interest entity guidance to a lessor under common control.  Instead the private company would make certain disclosures about the lessor and leasing arrangement. Application of this statement is effective for the year ending December 31, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No 2014-09, Revenue with Contracts from Customers (Topic 606). The new accounting standard develops a common revenue standard that will remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices, provide more useful information to users of financial statements and simplify the preparation of financial statements.  Application of this statement is effective for the year ending December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this pronouncement will have on its financial statements. 

 

Note 2. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
