INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the Member of

Path Labs, LLC

West Sacramento, California

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Path Labs, LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Path Labs Holding, LLC), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations and member’s deficit 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 audit. We conducted our audit 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 Path Labs, LLC 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.

Emphasis of a Matter Regarding Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Path Labs, LLC will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, Path Labs, LLC has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a working capital deficit that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

PATH LABS, LLC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Path Labs, LLC (the “Company”) dba Path Logic is wholly-owned by Path Labs Holdings, LLC and is engaged in the business of providing full-service pathology laboratory, anatomic pathology services and clinical diagnostic services. Path Logic provides a comprehensive array of inpatient and outpatient services to physicians, pathologists, surgery centers, hospitals, and other healthcare providers seeking consistent, reliable, and rapid diagnostics using advanced technology and specialized expertise. Their labs have the capability to serve customers throughout California and the western United States. The Company’s operations currently represent one reportable business segment.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, has an accumulated deficit of $16,854,698 and a working capital deficit. As described in Note 7, the line of credit outstanding of $3,800,000 is fully guaranteed by Mainsail (the majority member of Path Labs Holding, LLC) and as disclosed in Note 16, additional funding up to $1,500,000 will be available in 2014 from Mainsail to fund operations. Mainsail has provided $1,100,000 of this funding through July 8, 2014, however the Company anticipates that additional funding will be needed for which there is no commitment. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s parent, Path Labs Holding, LLC has entered into an agreement to sell all of its interest in the Company to an unrelated party. See Note 16.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation: The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates, judgments and assumptions used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to reserves, accounts receivable and related allowances, contingencies, useful lives and the recovery of long-term assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Advertising Costs: Advertising costs are expensed at the time they are incurred and were not material for the years ended December 31, 2013, and 2012.

Charity Care: The Company provides care to patients who meet certain criteria under its charity care policy without charge or at amounts less than its established rates. Because the Company does not pursue collection of amounts determined to qualify as charity care, they are not reported as revenue. Charity care provided in 2013 and 2012 was not material.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company classifies highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash is deposited with a financial institution insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), which insures all account balances up to $250,000. At December 31, 2013, the Company had deposits with carrying amounts of $247,237 and bank balances of $271,940. All balances were fully insured.

 

- 7 -


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Common Units: Common units are eligible for allocation of all income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Company and distributions in respect of the ownership interests in the Company.

Laboratory Services Revenue Net: The Company recognizes laboratory services revenues when (a) the price is fixed or determinable, (b) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (c) the service is performed and (d) collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Laboratory services are performed based on a written test requisition form or electronic equivalent and revenues are recognized once the diagnostic services have been performed. These laboratory services are billed to various payers, including Medicare, commercial insurance companies, and individuals. The Company reports revenues from contracted payers, including Medicare and certain insurance companies based on the contractual rate, or in the case of Medicare, published fee schedules. The Company reports revenues from non-contracted payers, including individuals, based on the amount expected to be collected. The difference between the amount billed and the amount estimated to be collected from non-contracted payers is recorded as an allowance to arrive at the reported net revenues. The expected revenues from non-contracted payers are based on the historical collection experience of each payer or payer group, as appropriate. The Company regularly reviews its historical collection experience and adjusts its expected revenues for current and subsequent periods accordingly.

Revenues from the Medicare and Medicaid programs accounted for approximately 18% and 5%, and 27% and 8%, respectively, of the Company’s laboratory services revenue for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012. Laws and regulations governing the Medicare and Medicaid programs are complex and subject to interpretation. As a result, there is at least a reasonable possibility that recorded estimates will change by a material amount in the near term.

Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue includes payroll and payroll related costs for performing tests, supplies, and courier costs to transport the specimens.

Patient Accounts Receivable: Patient accounts receivable represent amounts due primarily from third-party payors and patients under contracted reimbursement formulas. Accounts receivable are carried at the original billed amount less contractual adjustments and allowance for doubtful accounts. Management estimates uncollectible accounts receivable considering contractual arrangements, current aging statistics and historical collection trends. Patient accounts receivable are written-off when all third-party payor options have been exhausted.

The activity in the allowance account, including contractual allowance and an allowance for uncollectible accounts, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

 

     2013     2012  

Beginning balance

   $ 287,850      $ 258,075   

Expense for bad debt

     907,576        861,017   

Write off of accounts receivable

     (640,537     (831,242
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Ending balance

   $ 554,889      $ 287,850   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Medical Supplies Inventory: Medical supplies inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.

Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Laboratory equipment

   3 – 5 years

Other furniture and fixtures

   3 years

Vehicles

   3 – 5 years

Computer equipment and software

   3 years

 

- 8 -


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Amortization of leasehold improvements is provided using the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the lease or the useful life of the improvement.

Expenditures for renewals or betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Upon sale or retirement, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in current operating results. The Company evaluates property and equipment for financial impairment as events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be fully recoverable.

Certain laboratory equipment and software held under capital leases are classified as property and equipment and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or estimated economic life of the asset. The related obligations are recorded as liabilities.

Goodwill and Indefinite Lived Intangibles: Goodwill represents the excess of cost over fair value of assets of businesses acquired. The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles for impairment at least annually, and more frequently if triggering events occur. The timing of the Company’s annual impairment test is the end of the fiscal year. In accordance with the authoritative guidance regarding goodwill and indefinite lived intangible asset impairment testing, an entity is allowed to first assess qualitative factors as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform quantitative impairment testing. If an entity determines that it is not more likely than not that the estimated fair value of an asset is less than its carrying value, then no further testing is required. Otherwise, impairment testing must be performed in accordance with the original accounting standards. If it is concluded that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The Company has determined that the business is comprised of one reporting unit.

The determination of goodwill impairment consists of two steps. First, the Company determines the fair value of the Company and compares it to its carrying amount. Second, if the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the Company to its assets and liabilities in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation in accordance with accounting guidance for business combinations. The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the Company’s goodwill. No impairment of goodwill was identified during the year ended December 31, 2012.

The goodwill impairment test completed for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted in an impairment of $2,600,000. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company experienced an approximate 23% reduction in net laboratory services revenue as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company continued to report recurring losses from operations through December 31, 2013. These factors led to the recognition of impairment at December 31, 2013. Fair value of the Company was calculated utilizing an average of calculated values based on comparable recent merger and acquisition activity of similar companies, comparable public company valuations using multiples of revenue, and a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s own budget projections.

The Company has indefinite lived intangibles consisting of a Medi-Cal Provider Number purchased in August 2011. The Medi-Cal Provider Number enables them to participate as a provider in the California Medical Assistance Program in Southern California. This intangible asset has been determined to have an indefinite life. Prior to December 31, 2012 the decision was made to sell the Medi-Cal Provider Number and an impairment loss of $73,716 was recognized during the year ended December 31, 2012. Fair value was determined based on two quoted sales prices and estimated costs to complete the sales transaction. See Note 6.

 

- 9 -


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Finite Lived Intangible Assets: Intangible assets represent customer relationships consisting primarily of hospitals and physician groups. These intangible assets will be amortized over the expected relationship period of the hospitals and groups of approximately 17 years. Intangible assets are measured for impairment annually through the use of an undiscounted cash flow analysis. During the year ended December 31, 2012, impairment of $387,600 was recognized on the customer list intangible asset due to the loss of one key customer relationship. See Note 6. During the year ended December 31, 2013, no impairment was recognized.

Long-lived Assets: The Company reviews the carrying value of equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where the expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets. There were no impairment losses on equipment recognized during 2013 and 2012.

Income Taxes: The Company is a limited liability company and accordingly its results are allocated to its owners for inclusion in their respective tax returns. The Company pays state franchise taxes related to its operations throughout the United States.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income tax positions under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-10 and evaluates its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as an expense in the applicable year. The Company has evaluated its current tax positions and has concluded that as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, they do not have any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve or disclosure would be necessary. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change in the next 12 months.

Interest expense and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statement of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no interest or penalties recognized.

Fair Value Measurements: The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities, and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market, in which the Company would transact, and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and credit risk.

The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

- 10 -


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Level 2 – Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other-than-quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities, or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis: The Company measures certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities, including goodwill, intangible, and other long-lived assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs. Except for contingent earn-out consideration, the Company did not have any nonfinancial assets or liabilities recorded at fair value at December 31, 2013 or 2012. The fair value of the Company’s contingent earn-out consideration was $240,999 and $222,755 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively (see Note 3).

Healthcare Legislation: In March 2010, the United States (U.S.) enacted major healthcare legislation which contains reforms to the insurance markets and makes dramatic changes to the Medicare and Medicaid programs. This legislation made significant changes to the U.S. Healthcare system by requiring most individuals to have health insurance coverage and mandating material changes to the delivery of healthcare services and the reimbursement paid for such services in order to generate savings in the Medicare program. Healthcare reform could increase operating costs and have a negative impact on third-party payors and insurance companies. Due to the uncertainty of the resulting regulatory changes that will be needed to implement these reforms, management cannot predict the effects these reforms may have, however they may have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of future periods.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS LIABILITY

On December 1, 2011, the Company acquired Hadden Pathology & Cytology, a California sole proprietorship, for a total purchase price of $3,640,394. The total purchase price was comprised of a payment of $2,875,000 and additional future payments to the seller, with an estimated net present value of $765,394 as of December 1, 2011.

The asset purchase agreement calls for three additional payments to be made to the seller that are dependent on the collection of revenues during defined measurement periods. The first payment of $290,625 was made on September 29, 2012, which was within 30 days after the expiration of the following collection period. The second payment of $253,125 was made in three installments, which was completed September 30, 2013. The agreement for the additional payment was amended during 2013, and the associated liability was re-assessed to $240,999. Key assumptions used in estimating the liability include probability of attaining certain revenue targets and collection percentages over the three year period. As fair value is calculated using the Company’s assumptions and valuation techniques, this is considered a Level 3 measurement. The third payment remains outstanding as of the issuance of the accompanying financial statements.

Income of $3,288 and $337,477, resulting from earn-out liability re-measurements, have been recorded as a reduction of general and administrative expenses on the statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The adjusted accretion of interest, associated with the liability of $240,999 for the year ended December 31, 2013, amounted to $78,875. The adjusted accretion of interest, associated with the liability for the period December 1, 2011 through December 31, 2012, amounted to $169,728, for a liability of $415,248 as of December 31, 2012.

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES

Laws and Regulations: 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, reimbursements, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Recently, government activity has increased 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. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with the 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.

Risk Management: The Company is insured under a claims-made insurance policy for professional liability claims whereby insurance premiums only cover those claims actually reported during the policy term. The policy is in effect through February 2015 and has a $1,000,000 limit of liability and a self-insured retention per claim of $5,000. Management is not aware of any asserted or unasserted professional liability claims whose settlement, if any, would be in excess of amounts covered by insurance or would otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, and therefore no amounts are accrued as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.

The Company is insured for workers’ compensation, employee health benefits, directors and officers coverage, property, earthquake and auto insurance through third-party insurers.
