Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

Board of Directors

Network Medical Management, Inc.

Alhambra, California

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Network Medical Management, Inc. (“Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of income, mezzanine equity, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and 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 of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Network Medical Management, Inc. at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In return, APC arranges for the delivery of health care services by contracting with physicians or professional medical corporations for primary care and specialty care services. APC assumes the financial risk of the cost of delivering health care services in excess of the fixed amounts received. Some of the risk is transferred to the contracted physicians or professional corporations. The risk is also minimized by stop-loss provisions in contracts with HMOs.

 

On July 1, 1999, APC entered into an amended and restated management and administrative services agreement with NMM (initial management services agreement was entered into in 1997) for an initial fixed term of 30 years. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, APC is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) and NMM is the primary beneficiary with the ability to direct the activities (excluding clinical decisions) that most significantly affect APC’s economic performance through its majority representation of the APC Joint Planning Board; therefore APC is consolidated by NMM. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, APC owns 6.29% and 6.16%, respectively, of NMM.

 

Concourse Diagnostic Surgery Center, LLC (“CDSC”) was formed on March 25, 2010 in the state of California. CDSC is an ambulatory surgery center in City of Industry, California, is organized by a group of highly qualified physicians, and the surgical center utilizes some of the most advanced equipment in Eastern Los Angeles County and San Gabriel Valley. The facility is Medicare Certified and accredited by the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Healthcare, Inc. During 2011, APC invested $625,000 for a 41.59% ownership in CDSC. Due to capital stock changes in 2016, APC’s ownership percentage in CDSC’s capital stock changed to 43.8% and 43.43% on May 31, 2016 and July 31, 2016, respectively. CDSC is consolidated as a VIE by APC as it was determined that APC has a controlling financial interest in CDSC and is the primary beneficiary of CDSC.

 

APC-LSMA was formed on October 15, 2012 as a designated shareholder professional corporation and is solely owned by Dr. Thomas Lam, a shareholder and Chief Executive and Financial Officer of APC. APC-LSMA is controlled and consolidated by APC who is the primary beneficiary of this VIE. The only activity of APC-LSMA is to hold the investments in medical corporations, which includes: LaSalle Medical Associates, Pacific Medical Imaging and Oncology Center, Inc. (“PMIOC”) and Diagnostic Medical Group (“DMG”).

 

Universal Care Acquisition Partners, LLC (“UCAP”), a 100% owned subsidiary of APC, was formed on June 4, 2014, for the purpose of holding the investment in Universal Care, Inc. (“UCI”).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

On November 11, 2015, NMM, ACO Acquisition Corporation, and APCN-ACO, A Medical Professional Corp. (“APCN-ACO”) entered into a reorganization agreement whereby ACO Acquisition Corporation, a newly organized entity in which NMM is its sole shareholder, merged with APCN-ACO, effective on January 8, 2016, resulting in APCN-ACO becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of NMM (see Note 3).

 

On December 18, 2016, NMM, ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, and Allied Physicians ACO, LLC (“AP-ACO”) entered into a reorganization agreement whereby ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, a newly organized entity in which NMM is its sole shareholder, merged into AP-ACO, effective on December 20, 2016, resulting in AP-ACO becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of NMM (see Note 3).

 

Unless stated otherwise, NMM, ACO Acquisition Corp., APCN ACO, ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, AP ACO, APC, CDSC, APC-LSMA and UCAP are collectively referred to herein as the “the Company.”

 

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of NMM and its consolidated VIE, APC and its subsidiary UCAP and APC’s consolidated VIEs, CDSC and APC-LSMA. As of the effective dates of the reorganizations, as described above, the accounts of APCN-ACO and AP-ACO were also included in the consolidation of NMM.

 

All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company uses the acquisition method of accounting for all business combinations, which requires assets and liabilities of the acquiree to be recorded at fair value, to measure the fair value of the consideration transferred, including contingent consideration, to be determined on the acquisition date, and to account for acquisition related costs separately from the business combination.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include collectability of receivables, recoverability of long-lived and intangible assets, business combination and goodwill valuation and impairment, derivative assets, accrual of medical liabilities (including incurred, but not reported claims), determination of shared-risk revenues and receivables, income taxes and valuation of share-based compensation. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ materially from those estimates and assumptions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of money market funds and certificates of deposit. The Company considers all highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible into known amounts of cash and mature within ninety days from their date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company maintains its cash in deposit accounts with several banks, which at times may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes they are not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2016, the Company’s deposit accounts with banks exceeded the FDIC’s insured limit by approximately $74.2 million. The Company has not experienced any losses to date and performs ongoing evaluations of these financial institutions to limit the Company’s concentration of risk exposure.

 

Restricted Cash

 

APC is required to maintain a reserve fund by a certain health plan. The required reserve at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $101,132 and $100,376, respectively, and is held in a certificate of deposit account with initial maturities of six months at the date of purchase.

 

Fiduciary Cash

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, APC recorded fiduciary cash of $1,050,739 and $2,364,134, respectively, which represents cash received from the health plans on behalf of subcontractor IPAs. APC remits the amounts to the subcontractor IPAs the following month and such remittances are included in fiduciary accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Investments in Marketable Securities

 

The appropriate classification of investments is determined at the time of purchase and such designation is reevaluated at each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable securities have been classified and accounted for as held-to-maturity based on management’s investment intentions relating to these securities. Held-to-maturity marketable securities are stated at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, short-term marketable securities in the amount of $1,051,807 and $1,041,360, respectively, consist of certificates of deposit with various financial institutions, reported at par value plus accrued interest, with maturity dates from four months to twelve months (see Note 14). Investments in certificates of deposits are classified as Level 1 investments in the fair value hierarchy.

Receivables

 

The Company’s receivables are comprised of accounts receivable, capitation and claims receivable, risk pool and incentive receivables. Accounts receivable primarily consists of NMM management fee receivables and CDSC fee-for-service (“FFS”) receivables. Risk pool and incentive receivables mainly consist of APC full risk pool receivable that is only recorded when expected cash receipts are known or when actual cash is received from Health Source MSO’s who serves as the management company for the hospitals in the risk pools. Capitation and claims receivable relate to the health plan’s capitation, which is received by APC in the following month of service. For APC, other receivables are accrued based on invoices sent to the subcontracted IPA for stop loss insurance premium reimbursement and FFS reimbursement for Alhambra Hospital Medical Center’s self–insured program. For NMM, other receivables are accrued based on invoices for certain expense reimbursements from UCI and invoice for transportation reimbursement from the hospital.

 

Amounts are recorded as a receivable when the Company is able to determine amounts receivable under these contracts and/or agreements based on information provided and collection is reasonably likely to occur. The Company continuously monitors its collections of receivables and its policy is to write off receivables when they are determined to be uncollectible. The Company has not incurred credit losses related to receivables. No allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded at December 31, 2016 or 2015.

 

Concentrations of Risks

 

Four HMO’s accounted for 69% and 71% of the total capitation revenue for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The loss of these HMO contracts would have an adverse impact on the operations of APC.

 

Three and four HMO’s accounted for 96% and 99% of the total risk pool settlement revenue for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The loss of these HMO contracts would have an adverse impact on the operations of APC.

 

Three HMO’s accounted for 83% and 85% of the total fee for services revenue for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

No provider accounted for 10% or more of the total surgery center income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

One provider accounted for approximately 70% and 74% of total management fee income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The loss of provider would have an adverse impact on the operations of NMM.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, two and one providers accounted for approximately 29% and 49%, respectively, of total accounts receivable balance.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, two providers accounted for 97% and 100%, respectively, of the total risk pool and incentive receivable balance.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, one and two providers accounted for 100% and 95%, respectively, of the total capitation and claims receivable balance.

Land, Property and Equipment, Net

 

Land is carried at cost and is not depreciated as it is considered to have an infinite useful life.

 

Property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the terms of the respective leases or the expected useful lives of those improvements.

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization is removed from the accounts, and any related gain or loss is included in the determination of consolidated net income.

 

Sign-On Bonus

 

Pursuant to the Exclusivity Amendment Agreement entered into between APC and certain primary care physicians in October 2014 (see Note 12), APC is required to pay the provider a $25,000 sign-on bonus in three increments, the first by October 31, 2014, the second at the end of the sixth month of agreement term, and the third at the end of the 12th month of agreement term. APC capitalized an aggregate of $2,120,000 related to the sign-on bonus to be amortized over the contractual term of 5 years. If the agreement is terminated by the provider prior to the completion of the contract term, with or without cause, the sign-on bonus shall be fully repaid to APC by the terminating medical provider. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, APC recorded amortization expense related to the sign-on bonus of $424,000 and $405,250, respectively, which is included in the depreciation and amortization expense of the consolidated statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the net sign-on bonus balance was $1,207,625 and $1,631,625, respectively. The remaining balance of the sign-on bonus as of December 31, 2016 is expected to be amortized as follows:

 

Years ending December 31,   Amount  
       
2017   $ 424,000  
2018     424,000  
2019     340,875  
2020     18,750  
         
Total future minimum amortization   $ 1,207,625  

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, fiduciary cash, restricted cash, investment in marketable securities, accounts receivable, loans receivable – related parties, derivative asset (warrants), accounts payable, certain accrued expenses, bank loan, loan payable – related party and the line of credit. The carrying values of the financial instruments classified as current in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are considered to be at their fair values, due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the long-term bank loan and line of credit approximates fair value as they bear interest at rates that approximate current market rates for debt with similar maturities and credit quality.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), applies to all financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured and reported on a fair value basis and requires disclosure that establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for disclosures of the inputs to valuations used to measure fair value.

 

This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows:

 

Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that can be accessed at the measurement date.

 

Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates and yield curves), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect assumptions about what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs would be based on the best information available, including the Company’s own data.

 

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of December 31, 2016 are presented below:

 

    Fair Value Measurements        
    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The fair value of the warrant derivative asset of approximately $5.3 million at December 31, 2016 was estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation model, using the following inputs: term of 3.79 – 4.24 years, risk free rate of 1.67% - 1.76%, no dividends, volatility of 63.0% - 62.5%, share price of $7.50 per share based on the trading price of the AMEH common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 0% probability of redemption of the warrant shares issued along with the shares of AMEH’s convertible preferred stock issued in the financing (see Note 7). The fair value of the warrant derivative asset purchased on March 30, 2016 of approximately $1.5 million was estimated at issuance date using the Monte Carlo valuation model, using the following inputs: term of 5 years, risk free rate of 1.2%, no dividends, volatility of 69.9%, share price of $5.93 per share based on the trading price of AMEH’s common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 0% probability of redemption of the warrant shares issued along with the shares of AMEH’s convertible preferred stock issued in the financing.

 

The fair value of the warrant derivative asset of approximately $2.1 million at December 31, 2015 was estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation model, using the following inputs: term of 4.8 years, risk free rate of 1.71%, no dividends, volatility of 65.7%, share price of $4.75 per share based on the trading price of AMEH’s common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 0% probability of redemption of the warrant shares issued along with the shares of AMEH’s convertible preferred stock issued in the financing (see Note 7). The fair value of the warrant derivative asset purchased on October 14, 2015 of approximately $2.9 million was estimated at issuance using the Monte Carlo valuation model, using the following inputs: term of 5 years, risk free rate of 1.3%, no dividends, volatility of 63.3%, share price of $6.00 per share based on the trading price of AMEH’s common stock adjusted for a marketability discount, and a 0% probability of redemption of the warrant shares issued along with the shares of AMEH’s convertible preferred stock issued in the financing.

 

There have been no changes in Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 classification and no changes in valuation techniques for these assets for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Intangibles and Long-Lived Assets

 

Intangible assets with finite lives include network/payor relationships, management contracts and member relationships and are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. These intangible assets are amortized on accelerated method using the discounted cash flow rate.

 

Finite-lived intangibles and long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flows from the use of such assets (undiscounted and without interest charges) are less than the carrying value, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the carrying value of the asset to its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on appropriate valuation techniques. The Company determined that there was no impairment of its finite-lived intangible or long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase consideration of an acquired business and the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such asset may not be recoverable. The Company’s impairment review process compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which the goodwill resides to its carrying value.

 

F-19

 

 

Network Medical Management, Inc.

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Testing for impairment of goodwill is a two-step process. The first step requires the Company to compare the estimated fair value of its reporting unit with its respective carrying value. The Company has determined it has three reporting units, a management services unit, an accountable care organization unit and a health care services unit.

 

If the fair value is less than the carrying value, goodwill is potentially impaired and the Company then completes the second step to measure the impairment loss, if any. The second step requires the calculation of the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets from the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying amount of enterprise goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $316,610 related to the acquisition of Apple Physicians Organization in 2008, as the amount was not determined to be recoverable. No impairment loss was recorded by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

Reportable Segments

 

The Company operates as one reportable segment, the healthcare delivery segment, and implements and operates innovative health care models to create a patient-centered, physician-centric experience. The Company reports its consolidated financial statements in the aggregate, including all activities in one reportable segment.

 

Investments in Other Entities

 

Equity Method

 

The Company accounts for certain investments using the equity method of accounting when it is determined that the investment provides the Company the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee. Significant influence is generally deemed to exist if the Company has an ownership interest in the voting stock of the investee of between 20% and 50%, although other factors, such as representation on the investee’s board of directors, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the investment, originally recorded at cost, is adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of net earnings or losses of the investee and is recognized in the consolidated statements of income under “Income from equity method investments” and also is adjusted by contributions to and distributions from the investee. Equity method investments are subject to impairment evaluation. No impairment loss was recorded on equity method investments for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Cost Method

 

The Company uses the cost method to account for investments in companies for which it does not exercise significant influence or control.

 

The Company reviews its investments in other entities accounted under cost method to determine whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the investment carrying amount may not be recoverable. The primary factors the Company considers in its determination are the financial condition, operating performance and near term prospects of the investee.

 

F-20

 

 

Network Medical Management, Inc.

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

If the decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary, the Company would recognize an impairment loss. No impairment loss was recorded on investments accounted under the cost method for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Medical Liabilities

 

APC is responsible for integrated care that the associated physicians and contracted hospitals provide to its enrollees. APC provides integrated care to health plan enrollees through a network of contracted providers under sub-capitation and direct patient service arrangements. Medical costs for professional and institutional services rendered by contracted providers are recorded as contracted physicians and other services expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

 

Costs incurred by CDSC for operating its ambulatory surgical center, are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income.

 

An estimate of amounts due to contracted physicians, hospitals, and other professional providers is included in medical liabilities in the accompanying 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 numerous 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 periodically 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. APC has a $60,000 retention per member professional stop loss and $55,000 per member stop loss for Medi-Cal patients for professional claims. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in current operations.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue primarily consists of capitation revenue, risk pool settlements and incentives, management fee income, surgery center income and fee-for-services. Revenue is recorded in the period in which services are rendered. 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 revenue is recognized for each.

 

Capitation, Net

 

Capitation revenue (net of capitation withheld to fund risk share deficits) is recognized in the month in which the services are provided. Minor ongoing adjustments to prior months’ capitation, primarily arising from HMOs finalizing of monthly eligibility data for additions or subtractions of enrollees, are recognized in the month they are communicated to APC. Managed care revenues of APC consist primarily of capitated fees for medical services provided by APC under a provider service agreement (“PSA”) or capitated arrangements directly made with various managed care providers including HMO’s and management service organizations (“MSOs”). Capitation revenue under the PSA and HMO contracts is prepaid monthly to APC based on the number of enrollees electing APC as their healthcare provider. Health plans and providers with higher acuity enrollees will receive more and those with lower acuity enrollees will receive less.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Risk Pool Settlements and Incentives

 

Contracts with HMO’s also include provisions for APC to participate in the risk (shared risk capitation arrangements) relating to the provision of institutional services (institutional risk) to enrollees, such that APC can earn additional incentive revenue or incur losses based upon the enrollee utilization of hospital services. Typically, any shared risk deficits are not payable until and unless APC 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 healthcare costs (“IBNR”), revenue from shared risk amounts are recorded when such amounts are known. In addition to risk sharing revenues, APC is also eligible to participate in an incentive program. As an incentive to control enrollee utilization and to promote quality care, the HMOs have designed the quality incentive programs and commercial generic pharmacy incentive programs to compensate APC for efforts it takes to improve the quality of services and for efficient and effective use of pharmacy supplemental benefits provided to the HMO’s members. The incentive programs track specific performance measures and calculate payments to the IPA based on the performance measures.

 

APC also enter into risk sharing arrangements with affiliated hospitals (full risk capitation arrangements) who in turn have entered into capitation arrangements with various HMOs, pursuant to which the affiliated hospital provides, arranges and pays for institutional risk. Under a risk pool sharing agreement, APC is allocated a percentage of the affiliated hospitals surplus or deficit from the risk pool, after deductions for the affiliated hospitals costs. Advance settlement payments are typically made quarterly in arrears if there is a surplus. However, due to the uncertainty around the settlement of the related IBNR reserve, APC recognizes any excess IBNR reserve on settlement as risk pool settlement revenue on a modified cash basis. Any excess IBNR is normally settled and paid after a period of approximately one year from the related service period.

 

Management Fee Income

 

NMM provides claims processing and other administrative services for other IPAs. NMM receives management fee income for the services rendered. Management fees are calculated as a percentage of revenue under capitation contracts with various insurance companies.

 

Surgery Center Income

 

CDSC’s surgery center income consists primarily of net patient service revenues that are recorded based upon established billing rates less allowance for contractual adjustments. Revenues are recorded in the period in which the healthcare services are provided, based upon the estimated amounts due from patients and third-party payors, including commercial health plans, employers, workers’ compensation plans and federal and state agencies (under the Medicare and Medicaid programs).

 

CDSC utilizes the payment history specific to each payor and services to record estimated net revenues to ensure the appropriateness of these estimates. Third-party payor contractual payment terms are generally based upon predetermined rates per procedure or fee-for-service rates.

Network Medical Management, Inc.

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Fee-for-Service

 

Fee-for-service revenue primarily represents professional component of charges for medical services rendered by the Company’s contracted physicians and paid to the Company for certain reimbursable services, which is recognized at the time reimbursements are received from the health plans.

 

Stop-Loss Provisions

 

Stop-loss insurance limits the cost of medical services for enrollees whose professional care costs exceed a specified level. Stop-loss insurance premiums are reported as medical expenses and insurance recoveries are reported as a reduction of related medical expenses. The Company is contingently liable to the extent that any insurer becomes unable to meet its contractual obligation. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the liability balance for stop-loss provision was $0.

 

The Company has purchased stop-loss insurance, which will reimburse the Company for claims from service providers on a per enrollee basis. The specific retention amount per enrollee per policy period is $55,000 to $60,000 for professional coverage.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial and tax reporting in accordance with the liability method.

 

The Company utilizes ASC 740, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of asset and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The Company uses a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not and a measurement attribute on all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return in order to be recognized in the financial statements. Once the recognition threshold is met, the tax position is then measured to determine the actual amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated financial statements. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on taxes, if any, within operations as income tax expense. No interest or penalties on taxes were recognized in 2016 and 2015. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examination from 2013 onward and state income tax examination from 2012 onward.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation arrangements in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and nonemployees based on estimated fair values. ASC 718 further requires a reduction in share-based compensation expense by an estimated forfeiture rate.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards at the grant date. The model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the Company’s estimated share price, expected stock price volatility, which is based on taking the average historical price volatility for industry peers based on daily price observations over a period equivalent to the expected term of the awards, the expected dividend yield, the expected term of an option, and the risk-free interest rate, which is based on the US Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company uses historical employee exercise behavior, forfeitures, cancellations, and other factors to estimate the expected term.

 

Changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates of an option. Furthermore, the estimated fair value of an option does not necessarily represent the value that will ultimately be realized.

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to nonemployees and consultants in exchange for goods and services under ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. As such, the value of the applicable share-based compensation is periodically remeasured using an appropriate valuation model and income or expense is recognized during the vesting terms of the equity instruments. The measurement date for the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued is the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the nonemployee or consultant is reached or (ii) the date at which the nonemployee or consultant’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the estimated fair value of the equity instrument is primarily recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to NMM’s shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented, using treasury method. See Note 16 for more details.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which the Company hold, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and variable interest entities (VIEs) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent third-party equity ownership interests in the Company’s consolidated entities. The amount of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is disclosed in the consolidated statements of income.

 

Mezzanine Equity

 

Based on the shareholder agreements for both NMM and APC, in the event of a disqualifying event, as defined in the agreements, NMM and APC could be required to repurchase the shares from their respective shareholders based on certain triggers outlined in the shareholder agreements. The triggers that could cause NMM to redeem the shares are not solely within the control of NMM. As the redemption feature of the shares is not solely within the control of NMM, the common stock and additional paid-in capital of NMM has been classified in mezzanine or temporary equity as redeemable common stock.

Network Medical Management, Inc.

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

In addition, as the redemption feature of the shares is not solely within the control of APC, the equity of APC does not qualify as permanent equity and has been classified as mezzanine or temporary equity. Accordingly, the Company recognizes noncontrolling interests in APC as mezzanine equity in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new revenue recognition standard, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 2014-09”), that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The revenue recognition standard will allow for the recognition of revenue when a company transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard permits the use of either a full retrospective or retrospective with cumulative effect transition method. On August 8, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. The standard is effective for nonpublic entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with the earliest option of adoption being the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016. In addition, the FASB issued the following accounting standard updates related to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers:

 

· ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue From Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”) in March 2016. ASU 2016-08 does not change the core principle of revenue recognition in Topic 606, but clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations.
· ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”) in April 2016. ASU 2016-10 does not change the core principle of revenue recognition in Topic 606, but clarifies the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas.
· ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”) in May 2016. ASU 2016-12 does not change the core principle of revenue recognition in Topic 606, but clarifies the implementation guidance on a few narrow areas and adds some practical expedients to the guidance.
· ASU No. 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2016-20”) in December 2016. ASU 2016-20 does not change the core principle of revenue recognition in Topic 606, but affects narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2014-09.

 

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASC 606 on its consolidated financial statements. However, at the current time the Company does not know what impact the new standard will have on revenue recognized and other accounting decisions in future periods, if any, nor what method of adoption will be selected if the impact is material.

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). This update changes the guidance with respect to the analyses that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. The new guidance affects the following areas: (1) limited partnerships and similar legal entities, (2) evaluating fees paid to a decision maker or a service provider as a variable interest, (3) the effect of fee arrangements on the primary beneficiary determination, (4) the effect of related parties on the primary beneficiary determination, and (5) certain investment funds. ASU 2015-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company early adopted ASU 2015-02 effective for the year ended December 31, 2015. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (“ASU 2015-17”). This amendment simplifies the presentation of deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and requires all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, to be treated as non-current. ASU 2015-17 is effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The Company early adopted ASU 2015-17 with retrospective effect to all periods presented and the adoption did not have any impact on fiscal year 2015.

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”). ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosures of financial instruments including the requirement to measure certain equity investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 will become effective for the Company for fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its financial position, results of operations, cash flows and related disclosures.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting (“ASU 2016-07”), which eliminates the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method.

 

Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. Accordingly, the Company will adopt ASU 2016-07 in 2017 and such adoption is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which will require organizations to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet, including leases that were previously classified as operating leases. The ASU will also require additional disclosures about leasing arrangements related to the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted and the new guidance shall be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). This ASU makes several modifications to Topic 718 related to the accounting for forfeitures, employer tax withholding on share-based compensation, and the financial statement presentation of excess tax benefits or deficiencies. ASU 2016-09 also clarifies the statement of cash flows presentation for certain components of share-based awards. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance when effective and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”). This ASU provides clarification regarding how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This ASU addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The issues addressed in this ASU that will affect the Company are classifying debt prepayments or debt extinguishment costs, distributions received from equity method investees, and contingent consideration payments made after a business combination. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties that are under Common Control (“ASU 2016-17”). ASU 2016-17 amends the consolidation guidance on how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE should treat indirect interest in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE. Entities that already have adopted ASU 2015-02 are required to apply ASU 2016-17 retrospectively to all relevant prior periods beginning with the fiscal year in which ASU 2015-02 was initially applied. Accordingly, the Company retrospectively adopted ASU 2016-17 effective December 31, 2015 and such adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (“ASU 2016-18”). The amendments in ASU 2016-18 require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-18 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). This ASU provides a screen to determine when a set is not a business, which requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business, which reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. If the screen is not met, this ASU require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and also remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-01 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test if the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit and also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. Therefore, the same impairment assessment applies to all reporting units. An entity is required to disclose the amount of goodwill allocated to each reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount of net assets. This update is effective on a prospective basis for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

3. Mergers and Acquisitions

 

PIPA MSO, Inc.

 

On July 1, 2015, NMM merged with PIPA MSO, Inc. (“PIPA MSO”), a California corporation with NMM being the surviving entity. PIPA MSO was organized for the purpose of providing management services to medical groups and IPAs. The management service covers billing, collection, accounting, administrative, non-physician personnel staffing, and marketing. NMM acquired the operational and management processes associated with providing management services to medical groups and IPA’s.

 

NMM issued 157,876,218 shares of its common stock to the PIPA MSO shareholders with a fair value of $57,887,947 ($0.37 per share, which is based on management’s evaluation of the share price), representing approximately 44% of the issued and outstanding shares of NMM in exchange for shares held by former shareholders of PIPA MSO.

 

The fair value of the NMM share price was determined based on the use of the income and market approaches to derive the business enterprise value and applying a rate of 50% to the discounted cash flow method and 25% each to the guideline public company method and guideline mergers & acquisitions method. A discount of 28.5% for lack of marketability was then applied to determine the per share value. There was no cash consideration in this transaction. Transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed as incurred, which were minimal and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

APCN-ACO and ACO Acquisition Corporation

 

On November 11, 2015, NMM, ACO Acquisition Corporation, and APCN-ACO, A Medical Professional Corp. (“APCN-ACO”) entered into a reorganization agreement whereby ACO Acquisition Corporation, a newly organized entity in which NMM is its sole shareholder, merged with APCN-ACO, effective on January 8, 2016, the date of filing the merger agreement with the California Secretary of State. APCN-ACO operates an accountable care organization (“ACO”), as defined under the Medicare Shares Savings Program (“MSSP”), which is comprised of the ACO’s network of independent medical practices. The primary reason for the business combination was for NMM to acquire the member relationships of APCN-ACO.

 

Immediately following the effective date, NMM became the sole shareholder of APCN-ACO. On the effective date, each share of APCN-ACO’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date, was converted at 0.6 of one fully paid and nonassessable share(s) of common stock of NMM, immediately following which, each one share of common stock of ACO Acquisition Corporation was converted into and became one fully paid and nonassessable share of APCN-ACO’s common stock. As a result of the merger transaction, all of APCN-ACO’s shares were converted into 7,500,000 shares of NMM common stock.

 

All of APCN-ACO’s right, title and interest in and to all of its assets as of the effective date were included as part of the merger, including, without limitation, all of the following assets: (i) 75% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of 99 Medical Equipment Healthcare Supplies & Wheelchair Center (“99 DME”); (ii) 25% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Allegiance Home Health, Inc.; and (iii) 5% economic interest in Pacific Medical Imaging & Oncology Center, Inc. (“PMIOC”). 99 DME is a medical equipment store that specializes in the retail sale of medical supplies and mobility equipment. On January 8, 2016, APCN-ACO purchased the remaining 25% interest in 99 DME for $12,500, resulting in APCN-ACO having 100% ownership of the issued and outstanding equity interests of 99 DME. Allegiance Home Health, Inc. is a California Corporation that engages in providing skilling nursing, physical therapy, speech pathology, medical social worker and home health aide. See Note 7 for further information regarding PMIOC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NMM issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to the APCN-ACO shareholders, with a fair value of $3,075,000. Based on the Company’s valuation, which utilized the income – discounted cash flow and market approaches, the estimated fair value of the NMM common stock issued as consideration for the transaction was $0.41 per share. Transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed as incurred, which were minimal and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

 

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 acquisition date and be recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the intangible assets acquired with the remainder allocated to goodwill. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

 

The final allocation of the total purchase price to the net assets acquired is summarized as follows:

 

Investments in other entities – cost method   $ 25,000  
Identifiable intangible asset - member relationships     1,738,000  
Goodwill     1,679,849  
         
Total assets acquired     3,442,849  
         
Deferred tax liability     (367,849 )
         
Total liabilities assumed     (367,849 )
         
Net assets acquired   $ 3,075,000  

 

In the view of management, the goodwill recorded in the transaction reflects the Company’s future cash flow expectations and its market position in the healthcare industry. The intangible asset represents $1,738,000 recognized for the fair value of the member relationships that has an approximate useful life of 7 years. The valuation of the member relationships acquired was based on management’s estimates, available information, and reasonable and supportable assumptions, and are considered Level 3 measurements. The fair value of the member relationships was estimated utilizing the income – discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches.

 

Prior to the merger with NMM, APCN-ACO had minimal activity. For the year ended December 31, 2015, APCN-ACO had approximately $171,000 (unaudited) of operating expenses and net loss, which included $160,000 (unaudited) of management fees from an unrelated service provider. Due to insignificant operations, the Company did not determine it is necessary to present supplemental pro forma information for the year ended December 31, 2015.

ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, and Allied Physicians ACO, LLC

 

On December 18, 2016, NMM, ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, and Allied Physicians ACO, LLC
(“AP-ACO”) entered into a reorganization agreement whereby ACO Acquisition Corporation #2, a newly organized entity which NMM is its sole shareholder, merged into AP-ACO, effective on December 20, 2016, the date of filing the merger agreement with the California Secretary of State. AP-ACO operates an ACO, as defined under the MSSP, which is comprised of the ACO’s network of independent medical practices. The primary reason for the business combination was for NMM to acquire the member relationships of AP-ACO.

 

Immediately following the effective date, NMM became the sole member of AP-ACO. On the effective date, all of the membership interests of AP-ACO issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date were converted on a pro rata basis into 4,000,000 shares of NMM common stock. All of AP-ACO’s right, title and interest in and to all of its assets as of the effective date were included as part of the merger, including, without limitation, all of AP-ACO’s economic interest in PMIOC. See note 7 for further information regarding PMIOC.

 

NMM issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock (which includes 1,600,000 shares issued to APC) with a fair value of $2,080,000 to the members of AP-ACO. Per management’s evaluation, which utilized the income – discounted cash flow and market approaches, the estimated fair value of the NMM common stock issued as consideration for the transaction was $0.52 per share. Transaction costs are not included as a component of consideration transferred and were expensed as incurred, which were minimal and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

 

NMM did not acquire any identifiable tangible assets and did no assume any liabilities as a result of the acquisition.

 

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 acquisition date and be recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the intangible assets acquired with the remainder allocated to goodwill. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

 

The final allocation of the total purchase price to the net assets acquired is summarized as follows:

 

Identifiable intangible asset - member relationships   $ 1,497,000  
Goodwill     1,192,968  
         
Total assets acquired     2,689,968  
         
Deferred tax liability     (609,968 )
         
Total liabilities assumed     (609,968 )
         
Net assets acquired   $ 2,080,000

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

In the view of management, the goodwill recorded in the transaction reflects the Company’s future cash flow expectations and its market position in the healthcare industry. The intangible asset represents $1,497,000 recognized for the fair value of the member relationships that has an approximate useful life of 5 years. The valuation of the member relationships acquired was based on a management’s evaluation, management’s estimates, available information, and reasonable and supportable assumptions, and are considered Level 3 measurements. The fair value of the member relationships was estimated utilizing the income – discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches.

 

Prior to the merger with NMM, AP-ACO had minimal activity. For the year ended December 31, 2015, AP-ACO had approximately $200 (unaudited) of operating expenses and net loss. Due to insignificant operations, the Company did not determine it is necessary to present supplemental pro forma information for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The member relationship assets acquired from both APCN-ACO and AP-ACO represent member lives that are to be utilized by APA-ACO, and are considered part of the ACO operating segment. APA-ACO, an entity owned 50% by NMM and 50% by Apollo Medical Holdings, Inc. (“AMEH”) (see Note 7) and is also a Next Gen ACO (“NGACO”), which was approved in January 2017. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid services (“CMS”) is implementing the NGACO Model under section 1115A of the Social Security Act, which authorizes CMS, through its Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, to test innovative payment and service delivery models that have the potential to reduce Medicare, Medicaid or Children’s Health Insurance Program expenditures while maintaining or improving the quality of beneficiaries’ care. The purpose of the NGACO Model is to test an alternative Medicare ACO payment model. Specifically, this model will test whether health outcomes improve and Medicare Parts A and B expenditures for Medicare FFS beneficiaries decrease if Medicare ACOs (1) accept a higher level of financial risk compared to existing Medicare ACO payment models, and (2) are permitted to select certain innovative Medicare payment arrangements and to offer certain additional benefit enhancements to their assigned Medicare FFS beneficiaries. These member relationships acquired in 2016 were reenrolled under APA-ACO on January 1, 2017. Members of APCN-ACO and AP-ACO may opt out of the automatic enrollment into APA-ACO.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference in the amount of $9.00 per share plus any declared and unpaid dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock can be voted for the number of shares of AMEH Common Stock into which the Series A Preferred Stock could then be converted, which initially is one-for-one. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of AMEH Common Stock, at the option of NMM, at any time after issuance at an initial conversion rate of one-for-one, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits and certain other similar transactions. The Series A Preferred Stock is mandatorily convertible not sooner than the earlier to occur of (i) the later of (x) January 31, 2017 or (y) 60 days after the date on which AMEH file their quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2016 (the “Redemption Expiration Date”); or (ii) the date on which AMEH receive the written, irrevocable decision of NMM not to require a redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock (as described in the following paragraph), in the event that AMEH engage in one or more transactions resulting in gross proceeds of not less than $5,000,000, not including any transaction with NMM.

 

At any time prior to conversion and through the Redemption Expiration Date, the Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed at the option of NMM, on one occasion, in the event that AMEH’s net revenue for the four quarters ended September 30, 2016, as reported in its periodic filings under the Exchange Act, are less than $60,000,000. In such event, AMEH shall have up to one year from the date of the notice of redemption by NMM to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A Warrants and any shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the exercise of any Series A Warrants theretofore (collectively the “Redeemed Securities”), for the aggregate price paid therefore by NMM, together with interest at a rate of 10% per annum from the date of the notice of redemption until the closing of the redemption. Any mandatory conversion described in the previous paragraph shall not take place until such time as it is determined that that conditions for the redemption of the Redeemed Securities have not been satisfied or, if such conditions exist, NMM has decided not to have such securities redeemed. NMM has agreed to relinquish its redemption rights relating to the Series A Preferred Stock it owns in AMEH pursuant to the terms of a Consent and Waiver Agreement dated as of December 21, 2016 by and between AMEH and NMM. The Series A Warrants may be exercised at any time after issuance and through October 14, 2020, for $9.00 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends and stock splits.

 

Alternatively, the Series A Warrants may be exercised pursuant to a “cashless exercise” feature, for that number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing (x) the aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined in the Series A Warrant) of the shares in respect of which the Series A Warrant is being converted minus the aggregate Warrant Exercise Price (as defined in the Series A Warrant) of such shares by (y) the Fair Market Value of one share of AMEH Common Stock. The Series A Warrants are not separately transferable from the Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Warrants are subject to redemption in the event that the Series A Preferred Stock is redeemed by NMM, as described above.

 

NMM has the right to designate to the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors one person to be nominated as a director of AMEH. NMM has designated Thomas S. Lam, M.D., and he was elected as a director of AMEH on January 19, 2016.

 

On March 30, 2016, NMM purchased 555,555 units of AMEH’s securities for $4,999,995, each unit consisting of one share of Series B convertible preferred stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) and a stock purchase warrant (a “Series B Warrants”) to purchase one share of AMEH’s common stock at $10.00 per share, none of which securities have yet been converted or exercised for AMEH common stock, but which could result in the issuance by AMEH of up to 1,111,111 shares of AMEH common stock to NMM if they converted all of the Series B Preferred Stock and exercised all of the Series B Warrants that are currently held.

The Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference in the amount of $9.00 per share plus any declared and unpaid dividends. The Series B Preferred Stock can be voted for the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock could then be converted, which initially is one-for-one.

 

Based on the relative fair values of the investment in the Series A and B preferred stock and the related warrants, the carrying balance of the investment in AMEH as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $10,550,002 and $7,077,778, respectively, and is included in Investments in other entities – cost method in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Series B Warrants may be exercised at any time after issuance and through March 31, 2021, for $10.00 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock dividends and stock splits.

Stock Options

 

Stock Options Issued Under Primary Care Physician Agreements

 

On October 1, 2014, NMM and APC entered into an Exclusivity Amendment Agreement as part of the Primary Care Physician Agreement to issue stock options to purchase shares of NMM and APC common stock. The medical providers agreed to exclusivity to APC for health enrollees in consideration per provider of a sign-on bonus in the amount of $25,000 (or $15,000 if already a preferred provider). The stock options were granted from the date of agreement through May 1, 2015 and are treated as issuances to non-employees. The exercise price of the stock options is $0.167 per share and providers can exercise anytime between August 1, 2015 and October 1, 2019, as long as the providers continue to provide services pursuant to the terms of the agreement through October 1, 2019. If the agreement is terminated by the provider with or without cause, the sign-on bonus and any capitation payment above standard rates made in accordance with the terms of the agreement shall be fully repaid to APC by the terminating medical provider. In addition, any unexercised share options held by the terminating medical provider will be forfeited on effective date of termination, and any share options that have been exercised will be bought back by NMM and APC at the original purchase price.

 

On May 1, 2015, in connection with the formula contained in the Exclusivity Amendment Agreement, it was determined that effective on August 1, 2015, stock options for the purchase of a total of 7,963,950 eligible shares were granted to the medical providers. The stock options have a term of 5 years, which is through the term of the Exclusivity Amendment Agreement. These options are accounted for as options granted to non-employees. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, the value of the applicable share-based compensation is periodically remeasured using an appropriate valuation model and income or expense is recognized during the vesting terms of the equity instruments at each reporting period end date.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2015, a total of 5,932,350 NMM stock options were exercised for the purchase of shares of common stock that resulted in aggregate proceeds received by NMM of $988,725, which in accordance with relevant accounting guidance are reflected as long-term liability for unissued equity shares as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 based on the features noted above.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2015, a total of 6,053,550 APC stock options were exercised for the purchase of shares of common stock that resulted in aggregate proceeds received by APC of $1,008,925, which in accordance with relevant accounting guidance are reflected as long-term liability for unissued equity shares as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 based on the features noted above.

2021     500,000  
         
Total   $ 5,300,000  

 

Equipment Subject to Capital Lease

 

In January 2016, NMM entered into a lease for certain computer equipment. Under the terms of the lease agreement NMM have the option to purchase the equipment at the end of the original two year lease term for $1 (bargain purchase option). In accordance with relevant accounting guidance the lease is classified as a capital lease. The lease requires monthly payments of $8,050 through December 30, 2017 and bears interest at the rate of 3.625% per annum.

 

In January 2015, NMM entered into a lease for certain phone equipment.

Regulatory Matters

 

Laws and regulations governing the Medicare program and healthcare generally are complex and subject to interpretation. The Company believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing. While no regulatory inquiries have been made, 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 Medi-Cal programs.

 

As a risk-bearing organization, the Company is required to follow regulations of the California Department of Managed Health Care (“DMHC”). The Company must comply with a minimum working capital requirement, Tangible Net Equity (“TNE”) requirement, cash-to-claims ratio and claims payment requirements prescribed by the DMHC. TNE is defined as net assets less intangibles, less non-allowable assets (which include amounts due from affiliates), plus subordinated obligations. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company was in compliance with these regulations.

 

Many of the Company’s payor and provider contracts are complex in nature and may be subject to differing interpretations regarding amounts due for the provision of medical services. Such differing interpretations may not come to light until a substantial period of time has passed following contract implementation. Liabilities for claims disputes are recorded when the loss is probable and can be estimated. Any adjustments to reserves are reflected in current operations.

Legislation and HIPAA

 

The healthcare industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services, and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity has continued with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed.

 

The Company believes that it is in compliance with fraud and abuse regulations as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time.

 

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) assures health insurance portability, reduces healthcare fraud and abuse, guarantees security and privacy of health information, and enforces standards for health information. The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH Act”) expanded upon HIPAA in a number of ways, including establishing notification requirements for certain breaches of protected health information. In addition to these federal rules, California has also developed strict standards for the privacy and security of health information as well as for reporting certain violations and breaches. The Company may be subject to significant fines and penalties if found not to be compliant with these state or federal provisions.

 

Affordable Care Act

 

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) is resulting in substantial reform in the United States health care system. The legislation impacts multiple aspects of the health care system, including many provisions that change payments from Medicare, Medicaid and insurance companies. Starting in 2014, the legislation required the establishment of health insurance exchanges, which will provide individuals without employer-provided health care coverage the opportunity to purchase insurance. It is anticipated that some employers currently offering insurance to employees will opt to have employees seek insurance coverage through the insurance exchanges. It is possible that the reimbursement rates paid by insurers participating in the insurance exchanges may be substantially different than rates paid under current health insurance products. Another significant component of the PPACA is the expansion of the Medicaid program to a wide range of newly eligible individuals. In anticipation of this expansion, payments under certain existing programs, such as Medicare disproportionate share, will be substantially decreased. Each state’s participation in an expanded Medicaid program is optional. However, the PPACA may be repealed and replaced under the current administration. The potential outcome of the repeal and replacement is unknown at this time and could have a material impact on the Company.

 

Litigation

 

The Company is involved from time to time in routine legal matters incidental to its business. In the opinion of the management, resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Liability Insurance

 

The Company believes that its 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 its 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. Contracted physicians are required to obtain their own insurance coverage.

 

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.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, 5,932,350 shares had been issued as a result of the exercise of stock options.

In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, dilutive shares from stock options outstanding of 1,379,144 and 1,183,407, respectively, are excluded from the basic earnings per share computations as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive and included in the diluted earnings per share computations.
