NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of CareView Communications, Inc. (“CareView”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the financial information included herein in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the SEC on March 28, 2014.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist primarily of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, short- and long-term debt and warrants. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates our fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. We have elected not to carry our debt instruments at fair value. The carrying amount of our debt approximates fair value. Interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of short- and long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of the our short- and long-term debt and would be considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

 

We have categorized our assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy in accordance with GAAP. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

 

Assets and liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. 

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include the fair value of warrant liability as detailed below. The fair value of this warrant liability is included in long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The above table of Level 3 liabilities begins with the prior period balance and adjusts the balance for changes that occurred during the current period. The ending balance of the Level 3 securities presented above represent our best estimates and may not be substantiated by comparisons to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Carrying values of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. Such events or circumstances include, but are not limited to:

 

  Significant declines in an asset’s market price;
  Significant deterioration in an asset’s physical condition;
  Significant changes in the nature or extent of an asset’s use or operation;
  Significant adverse changes in the business climate that could impact an asset’s value, including adverse actions or assessments by regulators;

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets (continued)

 

  Accumulation of costs significantly in excess of original expectations related to the acquisition or construction of an asset;
  Current-period operating or cash flow losses combined with a history of such losses or a forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with an asset’s use; and
  Expectations that it is more likely than not that an asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of our previously estimated useful life.

 

If impairment indicators are present, we determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized by testing the applicable asset or asset group’s carrying value for recoverability. This test requires long-lived assets to be grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities, the determination of which requires judgment. We estimate the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated from the use and eventual disposal of the assets and compare that estimate to the respective carrying values in order to determine if such carrying values are recoverable. This assessment requires the exercise of judgment in assessing the future use of and projected value to be derived from the eventual disposal of the assets to be held and used. Assessments also consider changes in asset utilization, including the temporary idling of capacity and the expected timing for placing this capacity back into production. If the carrying value of the assets is not recoverable, then a loss is recorded for the difference between the assets’ fair value and respective carrying value. The fair value of the assets is determined using an “income approach” based upon a forecast of all the expected discounted future net cash flows associated with the subject assets. Some of the more significant estimates and assumptions include: market size and growth, market share, projected selling prices, manufacturing cost and discount rate. Our estimates are based upon our historical experience, our commercial relationships, market conditions and available external information about future trends. We believe our current assumptions and estimates are reasonable and appropriate; however, unanticipated events and changes in market conditions could affect such estimates resulting in the need for an impairment charge in future periods. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, and the year ended December 31, 2013, no impairment was required to be recognized.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with GAAP, which requires the computation and of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period under the treasury stock method. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options, warrants and convertible debt. Potential common shares totaling 92,322,361 and 71,701,614 at September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to our reported net loss.

 

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as summarized in NOTE 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN

 

Our cash position at September 30, 2014 was approximately $3.9 million. Pursuant to the terms of a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP (“HealthCor”) we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance $5 million. We currently have a waiver of the minimum cash balance requirement in place through April 1, 2015. On August 31, 2011, we entered into and closed a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Line”) with Comerica Bank and Bridge Bank providing for a $20 million revolving line of credit. On July 31, 2014, we allowed the Revolving Line to terminate pursuant to its terms, at which time the outstanding balance of $982,255 was repaid. In view of these facts, our continued successful operation is dependent upon us achieving positive cash flow through operations while maintaining adequate liquidity. We expect that the cash on hand and a new credit facility and/or equity financing, contemplated to close within the next 90 days, as well as our existing and projected cash flow from billable contracts, will enable us to continue to operate for the next twelve month period; however, there are no assurances that we can close on the financing arrangement on terms acceptable to the Company or that such closing will occur. We believe that our sales and marketing plan to attract new business and our ongoing deployment and installation of units under existing hospital agreements, will meet our near-term cash needs and will help us achieve future operating profitability.

 

At present, we have sufficient inventory to install and service a select number of large customers, but eventually we will need to address additional capital requirements through the use of cash generated from operations as well as a credit facility and/or equity financing.

 

We believe that we will achieve operating profitability; however, we cannot guarantee that profitability will be achieved or that it will be achieved in the stated time frame, nor is there any assurance that such an operating level can ever be achieved.

 

NOTE 3 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company

 

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) to determine the fair value of warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock (“Warrant(s)”), except those warrants issued that contain down round provisions (defined hereinafter as the “Private Placement Warrants”). The Black-Scholes Model is an acceptable model in accordance with GAAP. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average term of the Warrant. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants were computed using the Binomial Lattice model, incorporating transaction details such as the price of our Common Stock, contractual terms, maturity and risk free rates, as well as assumptions about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior. We determined that the Binomial Lattice model was the most appropriate model for valuing these instruments. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the Warrants and is calculated by using the average daily historical stock prices through the day preceding the grant date.

NOTE 3 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (Continued)

 

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company (continued)

 

Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of our stock prices and that of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available. Our calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. Where appropriate, we used the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of our stock price prior to 2007.

 

Warrant Activity during the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, certain warrant holders exercised their rights to purchase 627,351 shares of our Common Stock using the cashless provision provided by their warrant agreements, resulting in the surrender of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,927,399 shares of our Common Stock. Also during this period, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of our Common Stock expired.

 

On January 16, 2014, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP and agreed to sell and issue (i) additional notes in the initial aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000, with a conversion price per share equal to $0.40 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions) and (ii) additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 4,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.40 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions). The fair value of the convertible debt was determined to be $5,000,000. This resulted in a relative fair value of $1,146,732 for the warrants on the date of grant. At September 30, 2014, $1,065,351 remained as debt discount and $81,381 was amortized to interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

On April 1, 2013, the closing date of a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), we sold (i) an aggregate of 6,220,000 shares of our Common Stock for $0.495 per share and (ii) Common Stock Purchase Warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares for $0.01 per share (the “Private Placement Warrants”) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.1 million. The five-year Private Placement Warrants vested immediately upon issuance, contain provisions for a cashless exercise and had an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The Private Placement Warrants contain provisions that protect the holders from a future decline in the issue price of our Common Stock or “down round” provisions. As a result of the transaction discussed in the previous paragraph and the “down round” provision, the exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants was reduced to $0.40. In accordance with GAAP, we concluded these instruments are to be accounted for as liabilities instead of equity due to the down round protection feature available on the exercise price of the Private Placement Warrants. We recognized these Private Placement Warrants as liabilities at their fair value and re-measure them at fair value on each reporting date with the change reported in other income and expense. GAAP provides requirements for disclosure of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial recognition. Fair value for the Private Placement Warrants is determined using the Binomial Lattice Model valuation technique. The Binomial Lattice Model valuation model provides for dynamic assumptions regarding volatility and risk-free interest rates within the total period to maturity. Accordingly, within the contractual term, we provided multiple date intervals over which multiple volatilities and risk free interest rates were used. These intervals allow the Binomial Lattice Model valuation to project outcomes along specific paths which consider volatilities and risk free rates that would be more likely in an early exercise scenario.

Warrant Activity during the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 (continued)

 

As of December 31, 2013, we recorded a warrant liability of $370,865 in our consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2014, the Private Placement Warrants were re-valued with a fair value determination of $550,914 and the difference of $180,049 was included as change in fair value of warrant liability in other income and expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we also amortized $0 and $284,692, respectively, of previously capitalized Warrant costs as interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Warrant Activity during the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 2,500,000 Private Placement Warrants as discussed above. As of April 1, 2013, the date of issuance, we recorded the warrant liability at $672,909 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2013, the Warrants were re-valued with a fair value of $579,246 with the difference of $93,663 recorded as change in fair value of warrant liability in other income and expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we also amortized certain previously capitalized Warrant costs in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as follows: (i) $0 and $76,535, respectively, as non-cash costs in general and administration and (ii) $0 and $427,071, respectively, as interest expense.

 

On January 15, 2013, we entered into a Second Amendment of the Agreement (“Second Amendment”) in which Comerica Bank and Bridge Bank (the “Banks”) agreed to amend the defining term for “Eligible Accounts” and add the defining term for “Verification of Accounts.” In conjunction with this Second Amendment, the Warrants issued to the Banks were amended to reduce the exercise price from $1.40 to $1.10 per share (subject to adjustment for capital events) and to extend the expiration date from August 8, 2018 to January 15, 2020. All other provisions of the Agreement and the Warrants remained unchanged. The Warrants were revalued in January and April 2013 resulting in $11,429 and $52,857 increases in fair value, respectively, both of which are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we recorded a $23,764 charge to non-cash costs in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of the following agreement effective May 7, 2012. We entered into a 12 month advisory services agreement (the “AS Agreement”) with an unrelated entity, wherein compensation was paid through the issuance of a five-year Warrant to purchase 240,000 shares of our Common Stock. Vesting of the underlying shares occurs at the rate of 20,000 shares on the monthly anniversary date of the AS Agreement as long as the AS Agreement has not been terminated. At grant date the Warrant had a fair value of $265,200 at an exercise price of $1.65 per share. Since the Warrant was issued to a non-employee and contained specific vesting requirements, we followed Accounting Standard Codification 505-50 Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC-505-50”) which requires that the fair value of the Warrant be re-valued at each reporting period and any change in the fair value of the unvested portion of the Warrant recorded as a charge or credit to income. Upon full vesting, and after applying ASC 505-50, the fair value of these Warrants totaled $124,720.

Options to Purchase Common Stock of the Company

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we granted options to purchase 1,340,000 shares of our Common Stock (’‘Option(s)’’) to certain employees and members of our board of directors. We granted 25,000 Options to certain employees during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. During those same nine month periods, resulting from the resignation or termination of employees, 66,667 and 287,502 Options, respectively, were cancelled. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, 41,666 and 49,999 Options, respectively, expired.

Options to Purchase Common Stock of the Company (continued)

 

Share-based compensation expense for stock options charged to our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 ($527,507 and $127,478, respectively) is based on awards vested. The estimate of forfeitures are to be recorded at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. Our historical forfeiture rate as of September 30, 2014 is 6.45%. We have not included an adjustment to our stock based compensation expense based on the nominal amount of the historical forfeiture rate. We do, however, revise our stock based compensation expense based on actual forfeitures during each reporting period.

 

At September 30, 2014, total unrecognized estimated compensation expense related to non-vested stock options granted prior to that date was approximately $1,400,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. No tax benefit was realized due to a continued pattern of operating losses.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We do not expect to pay any significant federal or state income tax for 2014 as a result of the losses recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the additional losses expected for the remainder of 2014 and net operating loss carry forwards from prior years. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is “more likely than not” that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of September 30, 2014, we maintained a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. Based on these requirements, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded. There were no recorded unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the reporting period.

 

NOTE 9 – JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT

 

On November 16, 2009, we entered into a Master Investment Agreement (the “Rockwell Agreement”) with Rockwell Holdings I, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability (“Rockwell”). Under the terms of the Rockwell Agreement, we used funds from Rockwell to fully implement the CareView System™ in Hillcrest Medical Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma (“Hillcrest”) and Saline Memorial Hospital in Benton, Arkansas (“Saline”) (the “Project Hospital(s)”). CareView-Hillcrest, LLC and CareView-Saline, LLC were created as the operating entities for the Project Hospitals under the Rockwell Agreement (the “Project LLC(s)”).

 

Rockwell and the Company own 50% of each Project LLC. We contributed our intellectual property rights and hospital contract with each Project Hospital and Rockwell contributed cash to be used for the purchase of equipment for the Project LLCs. Rockwell provided $1,151,205 as the initial funding, $575,603 was provided under promissory notes (the “Project Notes’’) and $575,602 was provided under an investment interest (“Rockwell’s Preferential Return’’). We classified Rockwell’s Preferential Return as a liability since it represents an unconditional obligation by us and is recorded in mandatorily redeemable equity in joint venture on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns both earn interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) and are secured by a security interest in all of the equipment in the Project Hospitals, intellectual property rights, and the Project Hospital Contract.

 

In accordance with GAAP, we determined the Project LLCs are VIEs based on the fact that the total equity investment at risk was not sufficient to finance the entities activities without additional financial support. We consolidate the Project LLCs as we have the power to direct the activities and an obligation to absorb losses of the VIEs. We have no contractual liability to Rockwell with respect to the repayment obligations of the Project LLCs.

 

As additional consideration to Rockwell for providing the funding, we granted Rockwell warrants to purchase an aggregate of up to 1,151,206 shares of our Common Stock on the date of the Rockwell Agreement, and using the Black-Scholes Model valued the Warrants at $1,124,728 (the “Project Warrant”). The Project Warrant is classified as equity and is included in additional paid-in-capital on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We allocated the proceeds to the Project Warrant, the Project Notes and Preferential Returns based on the relative fair value. The originally recorded debt discount of $636,752 was amortized over the expected life of the debt and was fully amortized at September 30, 2014. Amortization is recorded as interest expense on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Amortization expense totaled $65,976 for the nine month ended September 30, 2013.

NOTE 9 – JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT (Continued)

 

As of September 30, 2014 the Project LLCs’ indebtedness to Rockwell totaled approximately $1,058,000, including principal and interest. On March 18, 2014, the Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns, previously due on June 30, 2014 (the “June 2014 extensions”), were extended to June 30, 2015. In conjunction with the June 2014 extensions, the expiration date of the Project Warrant was also extended from November 16, 2014 to November 16, 2015. All other provisions of the Warrants remained unchanged. The Warrants were amended and revalued in August 2013 resulting in a $25,327 increase in fair value, which was immediately recorded as non-cash costs included in general and administration expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

CareView, as 50% owner of the LLCs, is currently negotiating with Rockwell to settle the debt of the LLCs through the issuance of shares of CareView’s Common Stock. Although CareView anticipates that this settlement will be forthcoming in the near future, CareView and the LLCs can give no assurances that a settlement will be negotiated, or if negotiated and settled, that it will be through the issuance of CareView’s Common Stock.

 

NOTE 10 – VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

 

The Company consolidates VIEs of which it is the primary beneficiary. The liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not necessarily represent additional claims on our general assets; rather, they represent claims against the specific assets of the consolidated VIEs. Conversely, assets recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional assets that could be used to satisfy claims against our general assets.

NOTE 11 – AGREEMENT WITH HEALTHCOR

 

On April 21, 2011, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with HealthCor. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amount of $9,316,000 and $10,684,000, respectively (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Notes”). The 2011 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of April 20, 2021. Additionally we issued Warrants to HealthCor for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 11,782,859 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Warrants”).

 

So long as no event of default has occurred, the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes accrue interest from April 21, 2011 through April 20, 2016 (the “First Five Year Note Period”) at the rate of 12.5% per annum, compounding quarterly and shall be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar quarter. Interest accruing from April 21, 2016 through April 20, 2021 (the “Second Five Year Note Period”) at a rate of 10% per annum, compounding quarterly may be paid quarterly in arrears in cash or, at our option, such interest may be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar.

 

From the date any event of default occurs, the interest rate, then applicable, shall be increased by five percent (5%) per annum. HealthCor have the right, upon an event of default, to declare due and payable any unpaid principal amount of the 2011 HealthCor Notes then outstanding, plus previously accrued but unpaid interest and charges, together with the interest then scheduled to accrue (calculated at the default rate described in the immediately preceding sentence) through the end of the First Five Year Note Period or the Second Five Year Note Period, as applicable.

 

At any time after April 21, 2011, HealthCor is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $1.25 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2011 HealthCor Notes. As of September 30, 2014, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2011 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 24 million.

On January 31, 2012, we entered into the Second Amendment to Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (the “Second Amendment”) and sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amounts of $2,329,000 and $2,671,000 (collectively the “2012 HealthCor Notes’’). As provided by the Second Amendment, the 2012 HealthCor Notes are in substantially the same form as the 2011 HealthCor Notes, with changes to the “Issuance Date,” “Maturity Date,” “First Five Year Note Period” and other terms to take into account the timing of the issuance of the 2012 HealthCor Notes. The 2012 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of January 31, 2022. In addition, the provisions regarding interest payments, interest acceleration, optional conversion, negative covenants, and events of default, preemptive rights and registration rights are the same as those of the 2011 HealthCor Notes. At any time after January 31, 2012, HealthCor is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2012 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $1.25 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2012 HealthCor Notes. As of September 30, 2014, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2012 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 6 million.

 

On August 20, 2013, we entered into a Third Amendment to the Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (“Third Amendment”) to redefine the Company’s minimum cash balance requirements. Previously the Company was required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $5,000,000 and should the Company drop below that balance, it triggered a default. The Third Amendment allows for a reduced minimum cash period, as defined in the Purchase Agreement, which allows the Company to drop below $5,000,000, but not below $4,000,000. All other terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, including all amendments thereto, remain the same. Upon entering the reduced minimum cash period (which occurred on October 7, 2013), we had 120 days to return our minimum cash balance to the original $5,000,000. On January 16, 2014, we increased our cash balance to in excess of the original $5,000,000 minimum allowable balance.

 

On January 16, 2014, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (the “Fourth Amendment”) and sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amounts of $2,329,000 and $2,671,000 (collectively the “2014 HealthCor Notes’’). As provided by the Fourth Amendment, the 2014 HealthCor Notes are in substantially the same form as the 2011 HealthCor Notes, with changes to the “Issuance Date,” “Maturity Date,” “First Five Year Note Period” and other terms to take into account the timing of the issuance of the 2014 HealthCor Notes. The 2014 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of January 15, 2024. In addition, the provisions regarding interest payments, interest acceleration, optional conversion, negative covenants, and events of default, preemptive rights and registration rights are the same as those of the 2011 HealthCor Notes. At any time after January 16, 2014, HealthCor are entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2014 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2014 HealthCor Notes. Additionally we issued Warrants to HealthCor for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 4,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share (collectively the “2014 HealthCor Warrants”). As of September 30, 2014, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2014 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 14 million.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance $5 million. We currently have a waiver of the minimum cash balance requirement in place through April 1, 2015.

NOTE 11 – AGREEMENT WITH HEALTHCOR (Continued)

 

Accounting Treatment

 

When issuing debt or equity securities convertible into common stock at a discount to the fair value of the common stock at the date the debt or equity financing is committed, a company is required to record a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) charge. We had three separate issuances of equity securities convertible into common stock that qualify under this accounting treatment, (i) the 2011 HealthCor Notes, (ii) the 2012 HealthCor Notes and (iii) the 2014 HealthCor Notes. Because the 2011 HealthCor Notes were originally classified as a liability when issued and reclassified to equity on December 31, 2011, only the accrued interest capitalized as payment in kind (“PIK’’) since reclassification qualifies under this accounting treatment. The full amount of the 2012 and 2014 HealthCor Notes and all accrued PIK interest also qualifies for this accounting treatment. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a BCF of $251,604 and $738,437, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, we recorded a BCF of $165,477 and $472,992, respectively, related to the PIK in interest expense in other income and expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 12 – LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT WITH COMERICA BANK AND BRIDGE BANK

 

On August 31, 2011, we entered into and closed a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Line”) with Comerica Bank (“Comerica”) and Bridge Bank, National Association (“Bridge Bank”) (collectively the “Banks”) providing for a $20 million revolving line of credit. On June 30, 2014, the Revolving Line, previously due on that date was extended to July 31, 2014. On July 31, 2014, we allowed the Revolving Line to terminate pursuant to its terms, at which time the outstanding balance of $982,255 was repaid.

 

Accounting Treatment

 

Pursuant to the Revolving Line, as amended, we issued Warrants to the Banks to purchase an aggregate of 1,428,572 shares of our Common Stock. The Warrants have an exercise price of $1.10 per share and expire on January 15, 2020. The fair value of the Warrants at issuance was $1,535,714, with an additional $64,286 added pursuant to the Second Amendment, all of which has been recorded as deferred financing costs. The deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense over the term of the Revolving Line and were fully amortized as of June 30, 2014. The Warrants have not been exercised as of September 30, 2014. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, $0 and $284,692, respectively, and during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, $142,347 and $427,041, respectively, was amortized to interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 13 – RELATED PARTY

 

On January 1, 2014, we entered into a consulting agreement with David White, a director of the Company, pursuant to which Mr. White will provide consulting services and advise related to: (i) current product evaluation and implementation; (ii) presentation of the CareView System to clinicians and hospital executives; and (iii) introductions to qualified customers. The term of the consulting agreement is 12 months and calls for monthly payments of $5,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, $45,000 was charged to sales and marketing expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The CareView System secure video monitoring system connects the patient room to a touch-screen monitor at the nursing station, allowing nursing staff to maintain a level of visual contact with each patient. This configuration enhances use of the nurse call system, reduces unnecessary steps to and from patient rooms, and the recording capability allows for a video record of all in-room activity during the length of the patient’s hospital stay. The CareView System suite can be easily configured to meet the individual privacy and security requirements of any hospital or nursing facility.

Events Occurring During Third Quarter 2014

 

Loan and Security Agreement with Comerica Bank and Bridge Bank; Extension of Revolving Line

 

On August 31, 2011, we entered into and closed a Loan and Security Agreement (or the “Revolving Line”) with Comerica Bank and Bridge Bank providing for a $20 million revolving line of credit. On June 30, 2014, the Revolving Line, previously due on that date was extended to July 31, 2014. On July 31, 2014, we allowed the Revolving Line to terminate at which time the outstanding balance of $982,255 was repaid.

 

Issuance and Cancellation of Options and Warrants

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2014, we issued Options to purchase an aggregate of 40,000 shares of our Common Stock.

 

In August 2014, certain warrant holders exercised their rights to purchase 2,177 shares of our Common Stock using the cashless provision provided by their warrant agreements, resulting in the surrender of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 56,323 shares of our Common Stock.

 

Agreements with Healthcare Facilities

 

Community Health Systems, Inc.

 

In January 2014 Community Health Systems, Inc. (“CHS”) acquired Hospital Management Associates, Inc. (“HMA”). Under the terms of an existing products and services agreement with HMA, we deployed approximately 3,600 units. Under a separate agreement with HMA, due to their budgetary concerns, only 1,050 units were billable. The 2,550 unbillable units remained deployed pending future disposition.

 

Post-acquisition, CHS assumed our product and services agreement with HMA. That agreement expires on December 31, 2014. We are in the process of negotiating a new contract with CHS whereby CHS would agree to transfer to billable an additional 1,666 units currently inactive in former HMA hospitals bringing the total billable units to approximately 2,716, with the balance of approximately 884 units redeployed within CHS or to other health systems. While we cannot guarantee that the new contract will be finalized, management anticipates that the new agreement with CHS will be executed prior to the expiration of the existing agreement. Assuming execution of the new contract, we will also be authorized to enter into products and service agreements with other interested CHS facilities whose available beds total approximately 31,000.

 

22
 

 

Tenet Healthsystem Medical, Inc.

 

In February 2014, we entered into a Master Product and Services Agreement (the “Master Agreement”) with Tenet Healthsystem Medical, Inc. (“Tenet”). The terms of the Master Agreement provide for the execution of a facilities level agreement with each hospital. We commenced the roll-out of the CareView System in their Central Region and currently have 731 of the 806 scheduled units installed. We are also currently installing their Southern Region with 195 of the 958 scheduled units installed. Thereafter we anticipate continuing the roll-out to the remaining Tenet regions, which includes the potential for an approximate 12,000 additional beds out of the estimate 20,000 licensed Tenet beds.

 

Kaiser Permanente

 

In April 2014 and May 2014, we expanded our presence with Kaiser Permanente through the execution of paid pilot agreements with Kaiser’s Baldwin Park and Panorama City facilities. This is in addition to our paid pilot agreement with Kaiser Permanente Orange County covering its facilities in Anaheim and Irvine, California which was executed in October 2013. These four facilities are under six-month pilot agreements which provided for a monthly renewal until termination or replacement by a Master Agreement. In October 2014, the facilities in Anaheim and Irvine requested an additional 144 beds as the commenced to build out the rest of their hospitals in anticipation of the execution of a Master Agreement. We are currently in the process of negotiating a Master Agreement which will replace the existing pilot agreements and allow for a seamless transition for the Kaiser facilities. We anticipate that the Master Agreement will be completed by the end of 2014. After execution of the Master Agreement with Kaiser, we anticipate that we will ultimately be installed in approximately 7,000 of the estimated 8,600 available beds.

 

Parkland

 

On October 31, 2014, we signed a Pilot Agreement with Dallas County Hospital District D/B/A Parkland Health & Hospital System. Per the terms of the agreement, we will install 100 beds with the CareView System on a pilot basis. Upon successful completion of the pilot period, we anticipate deploying our products and services hospital-wide to an estimated bed count of 600. Currently Parkland has approximately 969 available beds. Parkland is in the process of opening a new facility which will increase the total available beds however that estimated number is unknown at this time.

 

The following table shows the number of healthcare facilities using our products and services including the number of deployed units, installed units and billable units as of October 31, 2014. The table also shows the number of pilot programs in place and hospital proposals pending approval, estimated bed count if the pilot programs and pending proposals result in an executed Products and Services Agreement, and the estimated total number of licensed beds available under the pilot programs and hospital proposals. There are no assurances that the pilot programs will be extended or the pending proposals will be approved to ultimately result in the number of estimated beds. Further, there are no assurances that we will have access to the total number of licensed beds in each healthcare facility.

 

Number of Billable Hospitals Number of Installed Hospitals Number of Aggregated Deployed Units Number of Aggregated Installed Units Number of Aggregated Billable Units Number of Pilots/Pending Proposals Number of Estimated Bed Count of Pilot/Pending Proposals Number of Estimated Total Licensed Beds in the Pilot/Pending Proposals
89 102 8,761 8,090 4,924 21 47,870 141,885

 

 

1 The variance between the Number of Aggregated Installed Units and Number of Aggregated Billable Units is largely due to units covered by unpaid pilot agreements and those units that are not being paid for under the agreement with HMA. The agreement with HMA, which was assumed by CHS, is currently being negotiated. It is management’s opinion that the spread between installed and billable units will be significantly reduced over the next 90 days resulting in meaningfully higher billable units.

Revenue

 

Revenue increased approximately $288,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. This increase is a direct result of hospital with billable units improving from 81 on June 30, 2014 to 87 on September 30, 2014. Of the 87 hospitals with billable units on September 30, 2014, two hospital groups accounted for 61 of the total. Billable units (RCPs and Nurse Stations) for all hospitals totaled 4,751 (4,512 and 239, respectively) on September 30, 2014 as compared to 4,327 (4,124 and 203, respectively) on June 30, 2014.

 

For the corresponding period in 2013, hospitals with billable units improved from 63 on June 30, 2013 to 66 on September 30, 2013. Of the 66 hospitals with billable units on September 30, 2013, two hospital groups accounted for 59 of the total. Billable units (RCPs and Nurse Stations) for all hospitals totaled 3,001 (2,886 and 115, respectively) on September 30, 2013 as compared to 2,917 (2,814 and 103, respectively) on June 30, 2013.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our principal operating costs include the following items as a percentage of total operating expense.

 

   Three Months Ended

   2014   2013 
Human resource costs, including non-cash compensation   44%   42%
Professional and consulting costs   7%   10%

Product deployment costs   8%   10%
Travel and entertainment expense   11%   8%
Other expenses   13%   11%

 

24
 

 

Operating expenses increased by 18% as a result of the following items:

 

   (000’s) 
Increase in human resource costs, including non-cash compensation  $196 
Decrease in professional and consulting costs   (41)
Increase in depreciation and amortization   41 
Decrease in deployment costs   (23)
Increase in travel and entertainment expense   99 
Increase in all other expenses, net   98 
   $370 

 

We had 49 employees at September 30, 2014 and 43 at September 30, 2013; however, we experienced increases in human resource costs as a result of non-cash compensation expense which increased as a result of charges associated with stock-based compensation to employees during the fourth quarter of 2013. The fair value of options are expensed ratably over their vesting period, generally three years. The non-cash compensation expense increase was partially offset by (i) reductions in executive level personnel and (ii) the recovery of previously accrued paid time off (“PTO”) expenses resulting from a change in our PTO policy.

 

Professional and consulting fees decreased primarily as a result of termination of consulting agreements.

 

The decrease in deployment costs reflects the addition of new hospital contracts offset by gains associated with changes in the amortizable life of certain pre-existing hospital contracts.

 

The increase in travel and entertainment expense is directly related to the addition of new hospital contracts and the resulting product deployment during the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Other, net

 

Other non-operating income and expense decreased by approximately $221,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 in comparison to the same period in 2013, primarily a result of the change in fair value of warrant liability related to warrants sold in conjunction with our April 2013 private placement (see NOTE 3 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further details) and the increase in interest expense related to the HealthCor funding transaction.

 

Net Loss Attributable to CareView Communications, Inc.

 

As a result of the factors above, and after applying the $17,000 net loss attributed to noncontrolling interests, our third quarter 2014 net loss of $3,250,000 decreased $159,000, or 5%, as compared to the $3,409,000 net loss for the third quarter 2013.

Revenue

 

Revenue increased approximately $684,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. This increase is a direct result of hospitals with billable units improving from 68 on December 31, 2013 to 87 on September 30, 2014. Billable units (RCPs and Nurse Stations) for all hospitals totaled 4,751 (4,512 and 239, respectively) on September 30, 2014 as compared to 3,292 (3,155 and 137, respectively) on December 31, 2013.

 

For the corresponding period in 2013, hospitals with billable units improved from 55 on December 31, 2012 to 66 on September 30, 2013. Billable units (RCPs and Nurse Stations) for all hospitals totaled 3,001 (2,886 and 115, respectively) on September 30, 2013 as compared to 2,078 (2,016 and 62, respectively) on December 31, 2013.

   $263 

 

26
 

 

We had 49 employees at September 30, 2014 and 43 at September 30, 2013; however, we experienced increases in human resource costs as a result of non-cash compensation expense which increased as a result of charges associated with stock-based compensation to employees during the fourth quarter of 2013 and directors during the first nine months of 2014. The fair value of options are expensed ratably over their vesting period, generally three years. The non-cash compensation expense increase was partially offset by (i) reductions in executive level personnel and (ii) the recovery of previously accrued paid time off (“PTO”) expenses resulting from a change in our PTO policy.

 

Professional and consulting fees decreased primarily as a result of termination of consulting agreements partially offset by increases in legal and accounting fees.

 

The increases in both deployment costs and travel and entertainment expenses are a direct result of the addition of new hospital contracts during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Other, net

 

Other non-operating income and expense increased by $894,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 in comparison to the same period in 2013, primarily a result of the increase in interest expense related to the HealthCor funding transaction and the change in fair value of warrant liability related to warrants sold in conjunction with our April 2013 private placement (see NOTE 3 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for further details).

 

Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest

 

As a result of the factors above, and after applying the $50,000 net loss attributed to noncontrolling interests, the nine months ended September 30, 2014 net loss of $11,579,000 increased $472,000, or 4% as compared to the $11,106,000 net loss for the same period in 2013.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash position at September 30, 2014 was approximately $3.9 million. Pursuant to the terms of a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP (“HealthCor”) we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance $5 million. We currently have a waiver of the minimum cash balance requirement in place through April 1, 2015. On August 31, 2011, we entered into and closed a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Line”) with Comerica Bank and Bridge Bank providing for a $20 million revolving line of credit. On July 31, 2014, we allowed the Revolving Line to terminate pursuant to its terms, at which time the outstanding balance of $982,255 was repaid. In view of these facts, our continued successful operation is dependent upon us achieving positive cash flow through operations while maintaining adequate liquidity. We expect that the cash on hand and a new credit facility and/or equity financing, contemplated to close within the next 90 days, as well as our existing and projected cash flow from billable contracts, will enable us to continue to operate for the next twelve month period; however, there are no assurances that we can close on the financing arrangement on terms acceptable to the Company or that such closing will occur. We believe that our sales and marketing plan to attract new business and our ongoing deployment and installation of units under existing hospital agreements, will meet our near-term cash needs and will help us achieve future operating profitability. At present, we have sufficient inventory to install and service a select number of large customers, but eventually we will need to address additional capital requirements through the use of cash generated from operations as well as new a new credit facility and/or equity financing.

 

We believe that we will achieve operating profitability; however, we cannot guarantee that profitability will be achieved or that it will be achieved in the stated time frame, nor is there any assurance that such an operating level can ever be achieved.

 

27
 

 

We expect to continue to spend substantial amounts on research and development. Further, we may not have sufficient resources to fully develop any new products or technologies unless we are able to raise additional financing on acceptable terms or secure funds from new or existing partners. We can make no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. Additionally, these conditions may increase the cost to raise capital. If additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities would result in dilution to our existing stockholders. Additionally, these conditions may increase costs to raise capital and/or result in further dilution. Our failure to raise capital when needed would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, and could force us to reduce or cease our operations.

 

As of September 30, 2014, our working capital was approximately $2,900,000, our accumulated deficit was approximately $91,400,000 and our stockholders’ deficit was approximately $16,900,000. Operating loss was approximately $4,861,000 and $5,282,000 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Our net loss attributable to CareView was approximately $11,600,000 and $11,100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements with third parties that include indemnification provisions which, in our judgment, are normal and customary for companies in our industry sector. These agreements are typically with business partners, clinical sites, and suppliers. Pursuant to these agreements, we generally agree to indemnify, hold harmless, and reimburse indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties with respect to our product candidates, use of such product candidates, or other actions taken or omitted by us. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. We have not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. As a result, the estimated fair value of liabilities relating to these provisions is minimal. Accordingly, we have no liabilities recorded for these provisions as of September 30, 2014.

 

In the normal course of business, we may be confronted with issues or events that may result in a contingent liability. These generally relate to lawsuits, claims, environmental actions or the actions of various regulatory agencies. We consult with counsel and other appropriate experts to assess the claim. If, in our opinion, we have incurred a probable loss as set forth by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., an estimate is made of the loss and the appropriate accounting entries are reflected in our financial statements. After consultation with legal counsel, we do not anticipate that liabilities arising out of currently threatened lawsuits and claims, if any, will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Commission on March 28, 2014 and incorporated herein by reference, for detailed explanations of our critical accounting estimates, which have not changed significantly during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as summarized in NOTE 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including Steve G.

Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2014 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
