Government Grant

During the year ended September 30, 2020, the Company received payments related to the US CARES Act.

Payroll Protection Plan (“PPP’)

During April 2020, the Company received $4,254,000 related to the PPP, which was to assist companies in maintaining their workforce. The loans and accrued interest were forgivable if the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes. On March 23, 2022, the loan was forgiven, and “other income from government grant” was recorded in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022. No balance remained on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022.

Long-term Debt

Senior Credit Facility

In September 2022, the Company entered into a five-year, $110,000,000 senior credit facility (“Facility”) with a group of US banks. The facility consists of a.) a delayed draw term loan facility of $85,000,000, of which $64,000,000 was drawn on January 3, 2023, to partially fund the acquisition of Great Elm, b.) a term loan of $5,000,000 that was drawn at closing, and c.) a $20,000,000 revolving credit facility. The Facility amended the $20,000,000 revolving credit facility that was entered into in September 2020. The Facility is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and is subject to certain financial covenants.  

The Facility bears interest at variable rates ranging in length from daily to three and six months and has fees for unused balances. As of March 31, 2023, the outstanding balances under the Facility totaled $81,075,000, comprised of $63,200,000 on the delayed draw term loan, $4,875,000 on the term loan, and $13,000,000 on the revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2023, the delayed draw term loan bears interest at 7.0% and is repayable in quarterly installments of $800,000, with the balance due at maturity. The term loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6.8% and is repayable in quarterly installments of $62,500, with the balance due at maturity. The revolving credit facility bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0% and is payable at maturity. It is classified as a current liability as it is expected to be repaid during the next twelve months.

Interest expense on the Facility was $1,407,000 and $1,620,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the facility approximates the carrying value as of March 31, 2023.

The Company has incurred $2,218,000 in financing costs to obtain the Facility, which is reflected as a reduction of the outstanding balance and will be amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the Facility. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, $134,000 and $223,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs was recorded, respectively.

The revolving credit facility that was replaced with the Facility incurred interest expense of $12,000 and $25,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. Issuance costs were being amortized on a straight-line over the four-year term of the facility for a total of $35,000 and $70,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively.

Debentures

On March 7, 2019, the Company issued C$15,000,000 in 8.0% Convertible Unsecured Debentures due March 7, 2024, with interest payable semi-annually on June 30 and March 31. Each C$1,000 (US$807) debenture was convertible at the option of the holder into 192.31 common shares. Beginning March 9, 2022, the Company could force conversion of the outstanding principal at a conversion price of C$5.20 per share, if the daily volume weighted average price of the common shares exceeds C$6.48 per share for twenty consecutive trading days. The Company exercised this option during the year ended September 30, 2022. No debentures remain outstanding as of March 31, 2023 or September 30, 2022.

The debentures contained multiple embedded derivatives including conversion right, forced conversion option and payment in lieu of common shares. Since the Company was unable to measure the fair value of embedded derivatives reliably, it had chosen to designate the convertible debentures in their entirety (including conversion right, forced conversion option and payment in lieu of common shares) to be subsequently measured at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). The debentures were valued at fair value using the current trading price, and a gain of $1,319,000 and $1,058,000 was recorded for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively.

Equipment Loans

The Company is offered financing arrangements from the Company’s suppliers and the suppliers’ designated financial institutions, under which payments for certain invoices or products can be financed and paid over an extended period. The financial institution pays the supplier when the original invoice becomes due, and the Company pays the third-party financial institution over a period of time. In most cases, the supplier accepts a discounted amount from the financial institution and the Company repays the financial institution the face amount of the invoice with no stated interest, in twelve equal monthly installments. The Company used an incremental borrowing rate of 6% - 7% to impute interest on these arrangements. There are no covenants with the loans and the carrying value of the equipment that is pledged as security against the loans is $20,318,000 and $14,949,000 as of March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

SBA Loan

In conjunction with an acquisition, the Company assumed an SBA Loan. The face amount of the loan was $150,000 and bears interest at a stated interest rate of 3.75%. Due to the below-market interest rate, the Company valued the loan at the net present value of the payments using the incremental borrowing rate of 6%, resulting in a fair value on the acquisition date of $119,000. The loan was payable in monthly principal and interest installments of $731 through May 2051 and is secured by substantially all the assets of the acquired subsidiary. The loan was paid off during the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, and a loss on extinguishment on approximately $30,000 was recorded in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Share capital

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity, which is comprised of capital stock, contributed surplus, shares to be issued, and accumulated deficit, in the amount of $81,058,000 and $79,547,000 as at March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Issued share capital

The Company has only one class of common stock outstanding. Effective May 13, 2021, the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares based on one post-consolidation common share for every four pre-consolidation common shares. Unless otherwise stated, the share, options and warrants along with corresponding exercise prices and per-share amounts have been restated retrospectively to reflect this share consolidation.

Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of common shares are recognized as a reduction of equity, net of any income tax effects.

Shares to be issued

The Company acquired a company during the year ended September 30, 2021, with a portion of the purchase price payable in shares. The fair value of the stock had been discounted by 25%, using the Black-Scholes pricing model for put options, to reflect the inability to sell the stock for a period and for the time between the date of the acquisition and the dates the stock was to be issued. The shares that were scheduled to be issued in August 2022, were settled instead, upon mutual agreement of the parties, with a cash payment of $1,100,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022.

Stock options and grants

The Company has a stock option plan, which it uses for grants to directors, officers, employees, and consultants. Options granted under the plan are non-assignable and may be granted for a term not exceeding ten years. Stock options having varying vesting periods and the options granted during the six months ended March 31, 2023 vest quarterly over eight or twelve quarters.

Restricted stock units

On May 20, 2021, 953,750 restricted stock units were granted to officers and directors. Each unit represents the right to ‎receive one common share, and vests over a period of two years from the grant date at the rate of one-eighth every three months commencing three months after the grant date. During the year ended September 30, 2022, 105,000 units were forfeited. On February 1, 2022, 81,340 restricted stock units were granted to officers. Each unit represents the right to ‎receive one common share and vested in four installments on the last day of each calendar quarter of 2022. The 645,313 units that vested in calendar years 2021 and 2022 were settled through the issuance of 526,193 shares during the three and six months ended March 31, 2023. The number of shares issued was less than the number of units settled due to the officers’ election to receive a reduced number of shares to satisfy their tax withholding obligations. These tax withholdings resulted in a cash outflow of $1,338,000 by the Company.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED) MARCH 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands of US Dollars, except per share amounts)

On February 20, 2023, 831,000 restricted stock units were granted to officers and directors. Each unit represents the right to ‎receive one common share, and vests over a period of two years from the grant date at the rate of one-eighth every three months commencing three months after the grant date.

As of March 31, 2023, 1,034,438 restricted stock units were outstanding, of which 101,719 had vested.

The fair value of the restricted stock units on the date of grant are discounted to reflect the difference between the vesting dates and the expected issuance dates, to be expensed over the respective vesting periods with an increase to contributed surplus.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method as prescribed by IFRS 2. Under this method, the fair value of stock options and restricted stock units at the date of grant is expensed over the vesting period and the offsetting credit is recorded as an increase in contributed surplus. An estimate of the number of awards that are expected to be forfeited is also made at the time of grant and revised periodically if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

For the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense as follows:

As of March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company's deferred tax liability was zero. Cumulative deferred tax assets are fully reserved as there is not sufficient evidence to conclude it is more likely than not the deferred tax assets are realizable. There is no current liability for federal income taxes. A state and local income tax payable of $64,000 and $246,000 as of March 31, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively, has been included within “Accrued liabilities” in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. The provision for income taxes related to the state and local income taxes and was $0 and $333,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, respectively, and $155,000 and $303,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively.

Income (loss) per share

Income (loss) per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated giving effect to the potential dilution that would occur from the incremental shares issued if in-the-money securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares by assuming the proceeds received from the exercise of stock options and warrants are used to purchase common shares at the prevailing market price. For periods with a net loss, the potential dilutive shares were excluded because their effect is anti-dilutive.

The following reflects the earnings and share data used in the basic and diluted income (loss) per share computations:

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Reporting entity

The Company’s shares are traded on the TSX Venture Exchange and on NASDAQ in the United States, both under the symbol QIPT.

ABOUT OUR BUSINESS

Quipt business objective

The growth in the number of elderly patients in the US healthcare market is creating pressure to provide more efficient delivery systems. Healthcare providers, such as hospitals, physicians, and pharmacies, are seeking partners that can offer a range of products and services that improve outcomes, reduce hospital readmissions, and help control costs. Quipt fills this need by delivering a growing number of specialized products and services to achieve these goals. Quipt seeks to provide an ever-expanding line of products and services over larger geographic regions within the United States using several growth strategies. With over 100 offices, Quipt employs more than 1,100 personnel in the United States.

Future outlook

Quipt expects to generate net profit and positive Adjusted EBITDA. Our top priority continues to be the generation of operational net profit, positive cash flow, and growth in EBITDA in fiscal year 2023 and beyond. As we continue to expand in our existing markets, we plan to leverage our business platforms to enter new markets. As we continue to grow and achieve scale, the increasing cash generated from operations will be used to market our products and services and to gain market share. Our continued integration and rationalization, and our acquisitions, have given us a focus and path towards profitability at each business unit.

Going forward, we seek to find ways to continue to grow our customer base and penetrate these markets, while continuing to streamline our operational platform and generate positive cash flow and operational profits. We will continue to improve on operational efficiencies and call center management as they are key execution points to maintaining our healthy gross margin while growing revenues by cross selling services to existing and acquired patients.

COVID-19 Pandemic  

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic. The crisis related to COVID-19 is unprecedented and has had an impact on the Company's employees, customers, and suppliers in 2021 through 2023.

Supply Chain

The Company closely monitors the changing global environment to enable immediate actions to be taken to ensure customer order fulfillment is achieved across the various markets. The shipment of goods from Asia continues to be impacted by COVID-19 disruptions to manufacturing. Global chip shortages continue to impact parts of our business as well.

Demand

Consumer demand for Quipt products and services is strong in most major markets. Brick and mortar retail consumer traffic continues to be affected in some markets with government-imposed restrictions and consumer purchasing behavior. Online and e-commerce channels are active in the United States.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

The demand for Quipt products and services were not adversely impacted by COVID-19. Demand for healthcare products and services increased during the pandemic as hospitals, physicians and pharmacies had an increased need to healthcare products and services, especially products and services relating to respiratory health and assistance.

OPERATING RESULTS

Accounting policies and estimates

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” issued by the governing body of the IASB. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period of consolidated financial statements.

Non-IFRS measures

Throughout this MD&A, references are made to several measures which are believed to be meaningful in the assessment of the Company’s performance. These metrics are non-standard measures under IFRS and may not be identical to similar measures reported by other companies. Readers are cautioned that the disclosure of these items is meant to add to, and not replace, the discussion of financial results as determined in accordance with IFRS. The primary purpose of these non-IFRS measures is to provide supplemental information that may prove useful to investors who wish to consider the impact of certain non-cash or uncontrollable items on the Company’s operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

In calculating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, certain items are excluded from net income (loss), including interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, change in fair value of derivative financial liabilities, and stock-based compensation. Set forth below are descriptions of the financial items that have been excluded from net income or loss to calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and the material limitations associated with using these non-IFRS financial measures as compared to net income or loss.

Depreciation and amortization expense may be useful for investors to consider because they generally represent the wear and tear on our property and equipment used in our operations and amortization of intangibles valued in acquisitions. However, we do not believe these charges necessarily reflect the current and ongoing cash charges related to our operating costs.
The amount of interest expense we incur or interest income we generate may be useful for investors to consider and may result in current cash inflows or outflows. However, we do not consider the amount of interest expense to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.
The change in fair value of derivative financial liabilities is the change in value of the debenture and these changes are non-cash until realized upon settlement of the instruments.
Income tax expense may be useful for investors to consider because it generally represents the taxes which may be payable for the period and may reduce the amount of funds otherwise available for use. However, we do not consider the amount of income tax expense to be a representative component of the day-to-day operating performance of our business.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Stock-based compensation may be useful for investors to consider because it is an estimate of the non-cash component of compensation received by the Company’s directors, officers, employees, and consultants. However, stock-based compensation is being excluded from the Company’s operating expenses because the decisions which gave rise to these expenses were not made to increase revenue in a particular period but were made for the Company’s long-term benefit over multiple periods. While strategic decisions, such as those to issue stock-based awards are made to further the Company’s long-term strategic objectives and impact the Company’s earnings under IFRS, these items affect multiple periods and management is not able to change or affect these items within any period.
Acquisition-related costs may be useful for the investors to consider because they are professional fees directly related to completing the various acquisitions. While the costs are expected to be recurring if the Company continues to make acquisitions, they are non-recurring as they relate to the specific acquisition and are incurred prior to the inclusion of such acquisitions in the consolidated revenues of the Company. Management uses both IFRS and non-IFRS measures when planning, monitoring, and evaluating the Company’s performance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue totaled $58,120,000, an increase of $24,567,000, or 73.2%, from the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase is primarily due to $16,000,000 from the acquisition of Great Elm during the three months ended March 31, 2023, with organic growth and the other acquisitions during the year ended September 30, 2022 also contributing. This quarterly revenue multiplied by four equates to annualized revenue of $232,480,000, which surpasses the previously announced outlook of $220,000,000.

For the six months ended March 31, 2023, revenue totaled $98,935,000, an increase of $35,858,000, or 56.8%, from the six months ended March 31, 2022. This increase is primarily due to approximately $33,000,000 from acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and the year ended September 30, 2022, with organic growth also contributing.

Inventory sold

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, inventory sold totaled $14,909,000 as compared to $7,354,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in dollars was due to the growth in revenues. The increase as a percent of revenues was due to the higher mix of sales relative to rental revenues.

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation increased to $1,306,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $1,161,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, due to the grants of stock-based awards during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Stock-based compensation decreased to $1,877,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 from $3,271,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2022, due to fewer stock-based awards from prior years remaining to be vested.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased to $2,022,000 from $487,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. This increase is due to higher borrowings on the Company’s Senior Credit facility as a result of the acquisition of Great Elm. There was also higher interest from a higher balance of real estate leases outstanding. These increases were partially offset by the decrease in interest expense related to the debentures that were converted to common shares in September 2022.

Interest expense for the six months ended March 31, 2023 increased to $2,734,000 from $986,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2022. This increase is due to higher borrowings on the Company’s Senior Credit facility as a result of the acquisition of Great Elm. There was also higher interest from a higher balance of real estate leases outstanding. These increases were partially offset by the decrease in interest expense related to the debentures that were converted to common shares in September 2022.

Change in fair value of debentures

Debentures issued during 2019 were valued at fair value using the current trading price. The change in fair value of debentures was a gain of $1,319,000 and $1,058,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. The debentures were converted to common stock during September 2022, so no debentures were outstanding during the three and six months ended March 31, 2023 to generate a change in fair value.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for incomes taxes related to state and local income taxes payable and was $0 and $155,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The provision for incomes taxes related to state and local income taxes payable and was $333,000 and $303,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Liquidity

The Company’s primary source of liquidity is cash flow from operations and its line of credit availability.

Cash flows from operations could be negatively impacted by decreased demand for the Company’s products, which may result from factors such as adverse economic conditions and changes in public and consumer preferences, the loss of confidence by the Company’s principal customers in the Company and its product lines, or by increased costs associated with manufacturing and distribution of products. The Company expects that cash, future operating cash flows, and the amounts available to be drawn against the credit facilities will enable the Company to finance its capital investment program and fund its ongoing business requirements over the next twelve months, including working capital and financial obligations.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash on hand of $2,087,000 and line of credit availability of $7,000,000. The Company’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure, to the extent possible, that it will have enough liquidity to meet its liabilities when due. The Company will do so by continuously monitoring actual and expected cash flows and monitoring financial market conditions for signs of weakness. On April 25, 2023, the Company completed a bought deal public offering and brokered private placement for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$42,500,000, or $31,200,000. Underwriters received a commission of approximately C$2,100,000, or $1,500,000, and other professional fees are estimated to be approximately $800,000, for net proceeds of approximately $28,900,000, which significantly increased the Company’s liquidity. The net proceeds will be used to pay down the revolver portion of the Senior Credit Facility, potential future acquisitions, working capital, and general corporate purposes.

Capital management

The Company considers its capital to be shareholders’ equity, which is comprised of share capital, contributed surplus, and accumulated deficit, which totaled $81,802,000 at March 31, 2023, along with long-term debt, which totaled $75,571,000 at March 31, 2023.

The Company raises capital, as necessary, to meet its needs and take advantage of perceived opportunities and, therefore, does not have a numeric target for its capital structure. Funds are primarily obtained through the issuance of equity and debt instruments. On April 25, 2023, the Company completed a bought deal public offering and brokered private placement and issued 5,409,000 shares for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$42,500,000, or $31,200,000. Underwriters received a commission of approximately C$2,100,000, or $1,500,000, and other professional fees are estimated to be approximately $800,000, for net proceeds of approximately $28,900,000. The net proceeds will be used to pay down the revolver portion of the Senior Credit Facility, potential future acquisitions, working capital, and general corporate purposes.

The outstanding shares as of May 15, 2023 are 42,072,469 common shares, with the increase from March 31, 2023 primarily due to the completion of the bought deal public offering and brokered private placement on April 25, 2023.

Financing

Historically and currently, the Company has financed its operations primarily from cash flow from operations, equipment loans, leases, issuances of equity for cash, credit facilities, and through the issuance of shares to acquire businesses.

Senior Credit Facility

In September 2022, the Company entered into a five-year, $110,000,000 senior credit facility (“Facility”) with a group of US banks. The facility consists of a.) a delayed draw term loan facility of $85,000,000, of which $64,000,000 was drawn on January 3, 2023, to partially fund the acquisition of Great Elm, b.) a term loan of $5,000,000 that was drawn at closing, and c.) a $20,000,000 revolving credit facility. The facility amended the $20,000,000 revolving credit facility that was entered into in September 2020. The Facility is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and is subject to certain financial covenants.  

The Facility bears interest at variable rates ranging in length from daily to three and six months and has fees for unused balances. As of March 31, 2023, the outstanding balances under the Facility totaled $81,075,000, comprised of $63,200,000 on the delayed draw term loan, $4,875,000 on the term loan, and $13,000,000 on the revolving credit facility.

As of March 31, 2023, the delayed draw term loan bears interest at 7.0% and is repayable in quarterly installments of $800,000, with the balance due at maturity. The term loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6.8% and is repayable in quarterly installments of $62,500, with the balance due at maturity. The revolving credit facility bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0% and is payable at maturity. It is classified as a current liability as it is expected to be repaid during the next twelve months.

Interest expense on the Facility was $1,407,000 and $1,620,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the facility approximates the carrying value as of March 31, 2023.

The Company has incurred $2,218,000 in financing costs to obtain the Facility, which is reflected as a reduction of the outstanding balance and will be amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the Facility. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, $134,000 and $223,000 of amortization of deferred financing costs was recorded, respectively.

A summary of the balances related to the Facility as of March 31, 2023 is as follows:

Equipment Loans

The Company is offered financing arrangements from the Company’s suppliers and the suppliers’ designated financial institutions, under which payments for certain invoices or products can be financed and paid over an extended period. The financial institution pays the supplier when the original invoice becomes due, and the Company pays the third-party financial institution over a period of time. In most cases, the supplier accepts a discounted amount from the financial institution and the Company repays the financial institution the face amount of the invoice with no stated interest, in twelve equal monthly installments. The Company used an incremental borrowing rate of 6% - 7% to impute interest on these arrangements. Future payments on these liabilities as of March 31, 2023 are as follows:

Results of operations for the healthcare services market in which the Company operates show little seasonality from quarter to quarter. The increase in revenues from the past year is primarily due to the Company’s acquisitions. The volatility of the net income (loss) is primarily due to the change in fair value of debentures and warrants. In the three months ended March 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, there was also income from government grants.

Related party transactions

The Company has six leases for office, warehouse, and retail space with a rental company affiliated with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the majority of which were entered into in 2015. The leases have a combined area of 74,520 square feet. Lease payments under these leases were approximately $65,000 and $52,000 per month for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, with increases on October 1 of each year equal to the greater of (i) the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), and (ii) 3%. One lease expires in June 2026 and the remaining five leases expire on September 30, 2029.

Expense for Board of Directors’ fees were $69,000 and $88,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

ACCOUNTING AND DISCLOSURE MATTERS

Financial reporting controls

Internal control over financial reporting

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as reported in Form 40-F for the year ended September 30, 2022, as described below. However, after considering such material weaknesses, and the additional analyses and other procedures that we performed to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report were prepared in accordance with IFRS, our management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods disclosed, in conformity with IFRS.

Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). The Company's management, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, evaluated the effectiveness of ICFR.  Management has concluded that as of September 30, 2022 and reported in Form 40-F internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Management concluded that the following material weaknesses existed as of March 31, 2023:

Management did not maintain appropriately designed entity-level controls impacting the control environment, risk assessment procedures, and effective monitoring activities. These deficiencies were attributed to: (i) management has not finalized the design and implementation, or retained appropriate documentation, of formal accounting policies, procedures, and controls across substantially all of the Company’s business processes, (ii) ineffective identification

Page | 15


Table of Contents

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

and formal assessment of overall business risks, and (iii) ineffective evaluation and determination as to whether the components of internal control were present and functioning.

Management did not maintain effective information technology general controls in the areas of user access management and segregation of duties within its systems supporting the Company’s accounting and financial reporting processes. Many of the Company’s manual controls dependent upon the information derived from these information technology systems were also ineffective, as management did not design and implement controls to validate the completeness and accuracy of underlying data utilized in the operation of those manual controls.

Management did not design and maintain effective controls over certain aspects of its revenue recognition process and related accounts, including controls around the classification of certain contracts as operating leases under IFRS 16.

Management did not appropriately design and implement management review controls at a sufficient level of precision around complex accounting areas and disclosure including business combinations and forecasts associated with intangible assets.

Remediation Efforts

We have begun the process of, and we are focused on, designing and implementing effective internal controls measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses. Our internal control remediation efforts include the following:

We engaged an outside firm to assist management with (i) reviewing our current processes, procedures, and systems and assessing the design of controls to identify opportunities to enhance the design of controls that would address relevant risks identified by management, and (ii) enhancing and implementing protocols to retain sufficient documentary evidence of operating effectiveness of such controls.  This internal control project is anchored in the framework and criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the 2013 Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Continuing to enhance and formalize our accounting, business operations, and information technology policies, procedures, and controls to achieve complete, accurate, and timely financial accounting, reporting and disclosures.

Designing and implementing controls that address the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the performance of controls over accounting transactions and disclosures.

Enhancing policies and procedures to retain adequate documentary evidence for certain management review controls over certain business processes including precision of review and evidence of review procedures performed to demonstrate effective operation of such controls.

Finalizing the implementation of entity level controls which are expected to be implemented prior to the end of the year ending September 30, 2023.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As described above, we are in the process of implementing changes to our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the material weaknesses described herein. There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting, during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Critical accounting estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, related disclosures and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods covered by the financial statements. The Company’s management reviews these estimates, judgments, and assumptions on an ongoing basis, based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates are adjusted prospectively in the period in which the estimates are revised.

Estimates where management has made subjective judgments and where there is significant risk of material adjustments to assets and liabilities in future accounting periods include fair value measurements for financial instruments and share-based transactions, useful lives and impairment of non-financial assets (property and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets), provision for expected credit losses, fair value measurements for assets and liabilities acquired in business acquisition, and calculation of deferred taxes.

The Company has identified the following accounting policies under which significant judgments, estimates and assumptions are made, where actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions, which may materially affect financial results or the financial position in future periods.

Revenue recognition

Revenues are billed to, and collections are received from both third-party insurers, the largest of which is Medicare, and patients. Because of continuing changes in the health care industry and third-party reimbursement, the consideration receivable from these insurance companies is variable as these billings can be challenged by the payor. Therefore, the amount billed by the Company is reduced by an estimate of the amount that the Company believes is an allowable charge to be ultimately allowed by the insurance contract. The above estimate involves significant judgment including an analysis of past collections and historical modification rates. Management regularly reviews the actual claims approved by the insurance companies, adjusting estimated revenue as required.

Valuation of accounts receivable

The measurement of expected credit losses considers information about past events and current conditions. Forward looking macro-economic factors are incorporated into the risk parameters, such as unemployment rates, inflation, and interest rates. Significant judgments are made in order to incorporate forward-looking information into the estimation of reserves and may result in changes to the provision from period to period which may significantly affect our results of operations.

The Company estimates that a certain portion of receivables from customers may not be collected and maintains a reserve for expected credit losses. The Company evaluates the net realizable value of accounts receivable as of the date of the consolidated statements of financial position. Specifically, the Company considers historical realization data, including current and historical cash collections, accounts receivable aging trends, other operating trends, and relevant business conditions. If circumstances related to certain customers change or actual results differ from expectations, our estimate of the recoverability of receivables could fluctuate from that provided for in our consolidated financial statements. A change in estimate could impact bad debt expense and accounts receivable.

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

Lease liabilities

Estimate of lease term

When the Company recognizes a lease, it assesses the lease term based on the conditions of the lease and determines whether it will extend the lease at the end of the lease contract or exercise an early termination option. As it is not reasonably certain that the extension or early termination options will be exercised, the Company determined that the term of its leases are the lesser of the original lease term or the life of the leased asset. This significant estimate could affect future results if the Company extends the lease or exercises an early termination option.

Incremental borrowing rate

When the Company recognizes a lease, the future lease payments are discounted using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. This significant estimate impacts the carrying amount of the lease liabilities and the interest expense recorded on the consolidated statement of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

Critical accounting judgments

The following are the critical judgments, apart from those involving estimations, that have been made in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Business combinations

In accordance with IFRS 3 – Business Combination (“IFRS 3”), a transaction is recorded as a business combination if the significant assets, liabilities, or activities in addition to property and related mortgage debt assumed constitute a business. A business is defined as an integrated set of activities and assets, capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return, lower costs, or other economic benefits. Where there are no such integrated activities, the transaction is treated as an asset acquisition. The estimation of the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired in an acquisition is subject to judgement concerning estimating market values and predicting future events. These values are uncertain and can materially impact the carrying value of the acquired assets, acquired liabilities, and the amount allocated to goodwill. These estimates and assumptions may change in the future due to uncertain competitive and economic market ‎conditions or changes in business strategies.‎

The process of determining these fair values requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions of a long-term nature regarding discount rates, projected revenues, royalty rates and margins derived from experience, actual operating results, and budgets. These estimates and assumptions may change in the future due to uncertain competitive and economic market conditions or changes in business strategies.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial instrument risk exposure

The Company’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including price risk, currency risk and interest rate risk), and credit risk. These risks arise from the normal course of operations and all transactions are undertaken to support the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Risk management is carried out by management under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Management identifies and evaluates the financial risks in co-operation with the Company’s operating units. The Company’s overall risk management program seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the Company’s financial performance.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk are primarily cash and accounts receivable. Each subsidiary places its cash with one major financial institution. At times, the cash in the financial institution is temporarily in excess of the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Substantially all accounts receivables are due under fee-for-service contracts from third party payors, such as insurance companies and government-sponsored healthcare programs, directly from patients or for rebates due from manufacturers. Receivables generally are collected within industry norms for third-party payors and from manufacturers. The Company continuously monitors collections from its clients and maintains a reserve for credit losses based upon any specific payor collection issues that are identified and historical experience.

The Company recorded bad debt expense of $2,482,000 and $3,167,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $4,765,000 and $5,579,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company has 12% of its accounts receivable from Medicare. As this is a federal health insurance program in the United States, there is nominal credit risk associated with these balances.

Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the Company will be subject to foreign currency fluctuations in satisfying obligations denominated in foreign currencies. All of the Company’s sales and inventory sold and most all of the Company’s operating expenses are in US dollars. The Company’s common shares are denominated in Canadian dollars. Cash is maintained in both US dollars and Canadian dollars. Consequently, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuations.

Table of Contents

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands, except per share amounts)

The Company’s objective in managing its foreign currency risk is to minimize its net exposures to foreign currency cash flows by holding most of its cash in US dollars. The Company monitors foreign currency exposures and from time to time could authorize the use of derivative financial instruments such as forward foreign exchange contracts to economically hedge a portion of foreign currency fluctuations.

Based on the above net exposure at the three months ended March 31, 2023, depreciation, or appreciation of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar could result in a significant effect on net income or loss. The Company has not employed any foreign currency hedging programs.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s Senior Credit Facility, which an outstanding principal balance of $81,802,000 as of March 31, 2023, bears interest at variable rates that will re-price within one month.

RISK FACTORS

We have disclosed the risk factors affecting our business, financial condition, and operating results in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended September 30, 2022. There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed.

QUIPT HOME MEDICAL REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2023 FINANCIAL RESULTS POSTING REVENUE GROWTH OF 73% AND ADJUSTED EBITDA GROWTH OF 86%

POSTS STRONG ADJUSTED EBITDA MARGIN OF 22.5% AND SEQUENTIAL ORGANIC GROWTH OF 2.5%

Cincinnati, Ohio – May 15, 2023 – Quipt Home Medical Corp. (the “Company” or “Quipt") (NASDAQ: QIPT; TSXV: QIPT), a U.S. based home medical equipment provider, focused on end-to-end respiratory care, today announced its second quarter fiscal 2023 financial results and operational highlights. These results pertain to the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, and are reported in U.S. Dollars.

Quipt will host its Earnings Conference Call on Tuesday, May 16, 2023, at 10:00 a.m. (ET). The dial-in number is 1 (800) 319-4610 or 1 (604) 638-5340. The live audio webcast can be found on the investor section of the Company’s website through the following link: www.quipthomemedical.com.

Financial Highlights:

Revenues for fiscal Q2 2023 were $58.1 million compared to $33.6 million for fiscal Q2 2022, representing a 73% increase year-over-year.
oCompared to Q1 2023, the Company experienced very strong sequential organic growth of 2.5%.
oThe Company anticipates organic growth continuing to meet or surpass historical levels of 8%-10% annually as calendar 2023 progresses.

Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2023, increased to $98.9 million, representing an increase of 56.8% from the six months ended March 31, 2022.

Recurring Revenue (defined below) for fiscal Q2 2023 continues to be strong and exceeded 78% of revenues.
Adjusted EBITDA (defined below) for fiscal Q2 2023 was $13.1 million (22.5% of revenues), compared to Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal Q2 2022 of $7.0 million (21.0% of revenues), representing an 86% increase year-over-year. The Company expects to continue to see strong margin performance throughout fiscal 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended March 31, 2023, increased to $22.1 million, representing an increase of 69% from the six months ended March 31, 2022, and represented 22.3% of revenues.

For fiscal Q2 2023, bad debt expense was at 4.2% of revenues compared to 9.4% in fiscal Q2 2022. This decrease is primarily due to improved collections and is attributable to the Company’s ability to scale and add revenue through add-on acquisitions without compromising billing capabilities.
Cash flow from continuing operations was $14.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $11.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 2022.

Operational Highlights:

Compared to 118,878 unique set-ups/deliveries in fiscal Q2 2022, the Company completed 198,101 unique set-ups/deliveries in fiscal Q2 2023, an increase of 67%. There were 106,486 respiratory resupply set-ups/deliveries during fiscal Q2 2023 compared to 50,713 during fiscal Q2 2022, an increase of 110%, which the Company credits to its continued use of technology and centralized intake processes.
The Company’s product mix is 79% respiratory as of March 31, 2023.
The Company continues to experience robust demand for respiratory equipment, such as oxygen concentrators, ventilators, as well as the CPAP resupply and other supplies business.
The Company has expanded its sales reach, which now spans across 26 U.S. states with the addition of experienced sales personnel.

Subsequent Highlights:

On April 4, 2023, the Company announced the execution of an additional national insurance contract with a top five health insurer based on membership in the United States1. This represents the second national insurance contract the Company has signed since April 2022.

On May 2, 2023, the Company announced that it has received conditional approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) to graduate its listing from the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) to the TSX. Final approval of the listing is subject to the Company meeting certain customary conditions required by the TSX. The Company is working diligently to satisfy such listing conditions. Further details and a timeline for graduation will be announced in due course.

Management Commentary on Q2 2023:

“We are thrilled to announce robust financial results that have come in ahead of expectations for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and are delighted to report that we continue to observe significant and continued momentum throughout the organization. This past quarter has seen our supply chain return to normal, stronger organic growth, an increase in our Adjusted EBITDA margin, and the seamless integration of our largest acquisition, Great Elm, to date. We are extremely delighted that our team’s focus on operational excellence has produced such outstanding results and believe that our continued focus therein will yield increased margins as we move into the second half of 2023. Additionally, we have a strong acquisition pipeline and will continue to use our tried-and-true approach to integration and our focused acquisition strategy to execute on our long-term vision,” said CEO and Chairman Greg Crawford.

“By focusing on areas with a high prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), we were able to expand our patient-centric ecosystem across the United States. Our success is a direct result of our dedication to improving patient care by offering a full range of respiratory and equipment solutions. As the need for efficient and timely home health care increases and in an effort to help ease the strain on the traditional healthcare system, we take our role as a major provider of these services very seriously and will always focus on providing superior patient care. Due to favorable demographic trends, the bullish regulatory environment, the continued strong demand for respiratory equipment, and our consistent operational performance across the entire organization, I truly believe that Quipt is in the strongest position it has ever been.”

Chief Financial Officer Hardik Mehta added, “We have a lot to be proud of because of our outstanding financial and operational performance in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. This is a remarkable accomplishment for the team because we exceeded our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA targets, raised our Adjusted EBITDA margin to 22.5%, and showed excellent 2.5% sequential organic growth. We also announced the completion of our largest acquisition to date at the start of the year, and I am happy to report that integration has gone very well and that we were able to realize the $2 million in annualized cost savings and synergies previously anticipated roughly a quarter ahead of schedule. Moreover, we closed a bought deal offering and concurrent private placement after the quarter ended to further fortify our already strong balance sheet, giving us more room to carry out our aggressive strategic expansion plan. This success has allowed us to maintain a very low net leverage ratio of 1.5x and a high degree of financial flexibility. We think we are in an excellent position to take decisive action as soon as the right opportunity presents itself.”

ATM:


Quipt is also pleased to announce that it has filed a prospectus supplement establishing a new At-the-Market equity program (the “ATM”). Canaccord Genuity (“Canaccord”) and Beacon ‎Securities Limited (“Beacon” and together with Canaccord, the “Agents”), ‎are acting as agents for the ATM . The ATM will allow the Company to offer for sale and issue up to $40 million (or the equivalent in Canadian dollars) of common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”) from time to time, at the Company’s discretion. Any sales of Common Shares under the ATM will be made through "at-the-market distributions" as defined in Regulation 44-102 respecting Shelf Distributions, including sales made directly on the TSXV (or the TSX if, as previously announced, the Company successfully graduates to the TSX), the NASDAQ Capital Market or on any other trading market for the Common Shares in Canada or the United States. The Common Shares will be distributed at the market prices prevailing at the time of the sale, and, as a result, prices may vary between purchasers and during the period of the ATM. The Company is not obligated to make any sales of Common Shares under the ATM.

The Company has adequate liquidity resources and does not currently intend to use the ATM, however the Company believes it is prudent to have this program in place in order to access capital to ensure the Company maintains sufficient liquidity and capital resources in the future. The Company intends to use net proceeds from the ATM, if any, for repayment of debt, potential future ‎acquisitions, working capital and general corporate purposes.

Distributions of the Common Shares through the ATM will be made pursuant to the terms of an equity distribution agreement dated May 15, 2023 (the “Distribution Agreement”) by and among the Company and the Agents, pursuant to which the Company may distribute Common Shares under the ATM from time to time through the Agents, in accordance with the terms of the Distribution Agreement.

A prospectus supplement (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Company’s short form base shelf prospectus dated November 11, 2021 (the “Base Shelf Prospectus”) has been filed with the securities commissions or securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada, and a prospectus supplement, dated May 15, 2023, related to the ATM (the “U.S. Prospectus Supplement”) has also been filed  with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as part of the Company's registration statement Form F-10 (File No. 333-26036) (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) under the United States/Canada multijurisdictional disclosure system. The Prospectus Supplement, the Base Shelf Prospectus, the U.S. Prospectus Supplement and the Registration Statement contain important detailed information about the Company and the ATM.

Prospective investors should read the Prospectus Supplement, the Base Shelf Prospectus, the U.S. Prospectus Supplement, and the Registration Statement and the other documents the Company has filed for more complete information about the Company and the ATM before making an investment decision.

The Prospectus Supplement filed in Canada (together with the related Base Shelf Prospectus) and the Distribution Agreement will be available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. The U.S. Prospectus Supplement and the Distribution Agreement filed in the United States (together with the Registration Statement) will be available on the SEC’s website on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor will there be any sale of the securities in any province, state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such province, state or jurisdiction. The securities being offered and the contents of this press release have not been approved or disapproved by any regulatory authority, nor has any such authority passed upon by the accuracy or adequacy of the Prospectus Supplement, the Base Shelf Prospectus, the U.S. Prospectus Supplement or the Registration Statement.

Management Commentary on ATM:

“Given our sustained strong expansion and future goals, the Company is dedicated to diversifying its sources of capital to fund its long-term acquisition strategy,” said Greg Crawford, CEO of Quipt. “The ATM will allow the Company to opportunistically raise equity in a more timely and cost-effective manner.”
