NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)

 

1.              Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of BioTelemetry, Inc.’s (“BioTelemetry,” “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” ) financial position as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.  The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes to the consolidated financial statements related to the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are unaudited.  The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

 

Net Income Per Share

 

We compute net income per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, Earnings Per Share.  Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income per share is computed by giving effect to all potential dilutive common shares, including stock options and restricted stock units.

 

The following table presents the calculation of basic net income per share:

Certain stock options, which are priced higher than the market price of our shares as of June 30, 2016 and 2015, would be anti-dilutive and therefore have been excluded from the weighted average shares used in computing diluted net income per share. These options could become dilutive in future periods.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of financial instruments is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  We have financial instruments falling into all three levels of the fair value hierarchy.  Our Level 1 financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other accounts receivable and accounts payable.  The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value because of their short-term nature.  Long-term debt, which is given a Level 2 classification within the fair value hierarchy, was determined to have a fair value of $38,091 as of June 30, 2016. This is equal to the nominal value, which is the carrying value, exclusive of debt discount and deferred charges.

Table of Contents

 

The fair value of contingent consideration, which is a Level 3 fair value instrument, is measured on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs such as projected payment dates, probabilities of meeting specified milestones and other such variables resulting in payment amounts which are discounted back to present value using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model.

 

In addition to our recurring fair value measurements, we have assets acquired in connection with business combinations, which are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date using a discounted cash flow model, which is a Level 3 classification.  This valuation technique requires the Company to make certain assumptions, including, but not limited to, future operating performance and cash flows, royalty rates and other such variables which are discounted to present value using a discount rate that reflects the risk factors associated with future operating cash flow of the acquired business, the characteristics of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the experience of the acquired business.

 

Equity Method Investments

 

We account for investments using the equity method of accounting if the investment provides us the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee. Significant influence is generally deemed to exist if the Company’s ownership interest in the voting stock of the investee ranges between 20% and 50%, although other factors, such as representation on the investee’s board of directors, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is recorded at cost in the consolidated balance sheets as a component of other assets and is periodically adjusted for capital contributions, dividends received and our share of the investee’s earnings or losses together with other-than-temporary impairments which are recorded as a component of interest and other loss, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

In December 2015, we acquired approximately 29% of the outstanding stock of Well Bridge Health, Inc. (“WellBridge”) through the conversion of an outstanding note receivable and the related accrued interest.  The investment is accounted for under the equity method.  At the time of the acquisition, the equity method basis difference of $891 was allocated to equity method goodwill.  As of June 30, 2016, our investment in WellBridge amounted to $985.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, no capital contributions were made, nor were any dividends received.  Our share of the investee’s loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $93 and $114, respectively.

 

Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the amounts assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually, or when events arise that could indicate that an impairment exists.  The provisions of ASC 350 require that we perform a two-step impairment test.  In the first step, we compare the fair value of our reporting units to the carrying value of the reporting units.  If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting units exceeds the fair value of the reporting units, then the second step of the impairment test is performed in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting units’ goodwill.  If the carrying value of the reporting units’ goodwill exceeds the implied fair value, an impairment loss equal to the difference is recorded.

 

For the purpose of performing our goodwill impairment analysis, we consider our business to be comprised of three reporting units:  Healthcare, Research and Technology.  We calculate the fair value of the reporting units utilizing a weighting of the income and market approaches.  The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow methodology that includes assumptions for, among other things, forecasted income, cash flow, growth rates, income tax rates, expected tax benefits and long-term discount rates, all of which require significant judgment.  The market approach utilizes our market data.  There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and the judgment applied in the analysis.  We believe that the combination of an income and a market approach provides a reasonable basis to estimate the fair value of our reporting units.

 

Acquired intangible assets are recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. The estimated fair values and useful lives of intangible assets are determined by assessing many factors including estimates of future operating performance and cash flow of the acquired business, the characteristics of the intangible assets acquired and the experience of the acquired business. Independent appraisal firms may assist with the valuation of acquired assets. The impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill consists of a comparison of the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to the carrying value of the asset.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Account Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  The standard will revise accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact and classification on the statement of cash flows.  The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  Early adoption is permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases.  The standard will require lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheet and makes selected changes to lessor accounting.  The standard is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.  A modified retrospective transition approach is required, with certain practical expedients available.  We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory.  The standard will require inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value.  The guidance will not apply to inventories for which cost is determined using the last-in, first-out method or the retail inventory method.  The standard is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  Early adoption is permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which has been updated through several revisions and clarifications since its original issuance.  The standard will require revenue recognized to represent the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration in which a company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  The standard also requires new, expanded disclosures regarding revenue recognition.  The standard will be effective January 1, 2018 with early adoption permissible beginning January 1, 2017.  We are currently evaluating the transition method we will elect and the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

2. Acquisitions

 

VirtualScopics, Inc.

 

On March 25, 2016, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary BioTelemetry Research Acquisition Corporation, entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger with VirtualScopics, Inc. (“VirtualScopics”), a leading provider of clinical trial imaging solutions.  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company commenced a Tender Offer to purchase:  (i) any and all outstanding shares of VirtualScopics’ $0.001 par value common stock for $4.05 per share; (ii) any and all outstanding shares of VirtualScopics’ $0.001 par value Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for $336.30 per share; and (iii) any and all outstanding shares of VirtualScopics’ $0.001 par value Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock for $920.00 per share.  The all cash Tender Offer commenced on April 8, 2016 and ended on May 9, 2016.  The Company completed the acquisition of VirtualScopics on May 11, 2016.  The total consideration paid at closing amounted to $14,970, net of cash acquired of $849.

 

The acquisition of VirtualScopics expands the Company’s existing clinical research offerings and gives the Company further access to established customer relationships.  We accounted for the transaction as a business combination, and as such, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values.  The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired has been recognized as goodwill, which represents the expected future benefits arising from the assembled workforce and other synergies attributable to cost savings opportunities.  The Company recognized $4,633 of goodwill as a result of the acquisition, all of which has been assigned to the Research segment.  We do not expect that any of this goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes.

 

The amounts below represent our preliminary fair value estimates as of June 30, 2016 and are subject to subsequent adjustment as additional information is obtained during the applicable measurement period.  The primary areas of these preliminary estimates that are not yet finalized relate to certain tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the identifiable intangible assets.  The Company expects to finalize all accounting for the acquisition of VirtualScopics within one year of the acquisition date.

ePatch Division of DELTA Danish Electronics, Light, and Acoustics

 

On April 1, 2016, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary BioTelemetry Technology ApS, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) with DELTA Danish Electronics, Light, and Acoustics (“DELTA”), pursuant to which the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the ePatch division of DELTA, inclusive of all products and indications currently under development.  The total consideration paid at closing amounted to $3,000 in cash and 244,519 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $2,885.  In addition, there is the potential for a performance based earn out up to $3,000 upon reaching certain milestones, as defined in the APA.  The fair value of the total consideration transferred in the ePatch acquisition, including contingent consideration, was $6,490 at the acquisition date.

 

The ePatch acquisition is expected to generate future cost savings for the Company and will provide control over proprietary components for the Company’s next generation Mobile Cardiac Outpatient TelemetryTM (“MCOTTM”) device.  We accounted for the transaction as a business combination, and as such, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values.  The excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of the net assets acquired has been recognized as goodwill, which represents the expected future benefits arising from the assembled workforce and other synergies attributable to cost savings opportunities.  The company recognized $2,808 of goodwill as a result of the acquisition, all of which has been assigned to the Technology segment.  The total amount of goodwill preliminarily expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $2,808.

 

The amounts below represent our preliminary fair value estimates as of June 30, 2016 and are subject to subsequent adjustment as additional information is obtained during the applicable measurement period.  The primary areas of these preliminary estimates that are not yet finalized relate to certain tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the identifiable intangible assets.  The Company expects to finalize all accounting for the ePatch acquisition within one year of the acquisition date.

Contingent Consideration

 

The APA includes the potential for a performance based earn out up to $3,000 upon reaching certain milestones.  The fair value of the contingent consideration associated with the ePatch acquisition was $605 at June 30, 2016 and is included as a component of other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

5.              Credit Agreement

 

On December 30, 2014, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Healthcare Financial Solutions, LLC (“HFS”), previously The General Electric Capital Corporation, as agent for the lenders (“Lenders”), and as a lender and swingline lender. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lenders agreed to make loans to us as follows:  (i) Term Loans in an amount of $25,000 as of the closing date with an uncommitted ability to increase such Term Loans up to an amount not to exceed $10,000 and (ii) Revolving Loans up to $15,000.  As of June 30, 2016, $14,500 was drawn on the Revolving Loans.  The loan, inclusive of Term Loans and Revolving Loans, is recorded on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 in the amount of $37,178, which is net of a debt discount of $695 related to fees paid to HFS and deferred charges of $65.

 

The loan bears interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 4.0%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 1.0%.  The outstanding principal of the Term Loan will be paid as follows:  (i) beginning April 1, 2015, the principal amount of the Term Loan will be repaid, on a quarterly basis, in installments of $312, plus accrued interest; (ii) beginning January 1, 2018, the principal amount of the Term Loan will be repaid, on a quarterly basis, in installments of $625, plus accrued interest; and (iii) the remaining $16,563 will be paid in full on or before December 30, 2019, or such earlier date upon an acceleration of the Term Loan by the Lenders upon an event of default or termination by us.  The loan is secured by substantially all of our assets and by a pledge of the capital stock of our U.S. based subsidiaries, as well as a pledge of 65% of the capital stock of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

 

The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and financial covenants regarding the operations of our business and certain negative covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant certain liens, make certain investments, merge or consolidate, make certain restricted payments and engage in certain asset dispositions, including a sale of all, or substantially all, of our property.  As of June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants.

 

6.              Stockholders’ Equity

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance stock units (“PSUs”) and performance stock options (“PSOs”) are granted under the BioTelemetry, Inc. 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (“EIP”).  In January 2016, the number of shares available for grant was increased by 1,091,118 shares, per the EIP documents.  At June 30, 2016, approximately 2,746,978 shares remain available for grant under the EIP.  We recognized $1,441 and $1,062 of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We recognized $2,619 and $2,182 of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Stock-based compensation expense is only recognized for outstanding PSUs where the performance conditions are deemed probable for achievement.  For PSUs deemed probable for achievement, stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the expected vesting period.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 we incurred PSU expenses of $355 and $444, respectively.  No stock-based compensation expense was recorded on our PSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.  As of June 30, 2016 the Company has not deemed it probable that the outstanding PSUs will vest.

 

In 2015, 200,000 PSOs were granted.  There were no forfeitures or vesting of PSOs during the three or six months ended June 30, 2016.  Stock-based compensation expense will only be recognized once the performance conditions of the outstanding PSOs have been met.  Through June 30, 2016, no stock-based compensation expense has been recognized related to the PSOs.

 

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2016, 77,844 shares were purchased in accordance with the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).  Net proceeds from the issuance of shares of common stock under the ESPP for the six months ended June 30, 2016 were $531.  In January 2016, the number of shares available for grant was increased by 272,779 shares, per the ESPP documents.  At June 30, 2016, approximately 698,220 shares remain available for purchase under the ESPP.

 

7.              Other Charges

 

We account for expenses associated with exit or disposal activities in accordance with ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, and record the expenses in other charges in our consolidated statements of operations and record the related accrual in the accrued liabilities line on our consolidated balance sheets. These costs are primarily disclosed as severance and employee related costs below.

 

We account for expenses associated with integration and certain litigation as other charges as incurred.  These expenses were primarily a result of legal fees related to patent litigation and activities surrounding our acquisitions.  A summary of these expenses is as follows:

8.              Income Taxes

 

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for discrete items, if any, which are taken into account in the quarterly period in which they occur.  We review and update our estimated annual effective tax rate each quarter.  At June 30, 2016, our estimated annual effective tax rate was 3.81%.  Income tax expense of $294 was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily due to Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) levied on current year taxable income, net of allowable AMT net operating loss carryovers.  At June 30, 2015, our estimated annual effective tax rate was 6.42%.  We recorded a tax provision of $123 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, which includes a discrete charge of $117 related to a deferred tax liability recorded for indefinite-lived intangibles.

 

14



Table of Contents

 

As of June 30, 2016, in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, we maintained a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets, with the exception of the deferred tax liability recorded for indefinite lived intangibles.  We will continue to maintain a full valuation allowance until such time we can reasonably estimate the probability of realizing a benefit from the deferred tax assets.

 

9.              Segment Information

 

We operate under three segments:  Healthcare, Research and Technology.  The Healthcare segment is focused on the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiac arrhythmias or heart rhythm disorders with our comprehensive suite of cardiac monitoring solutions in a healthcare setting.  Our Research segment is engaged in central core laboratory services providing cardiac monitoring, imaging, scientific consulting and data management services for drug and medical device trials. The Technology segment focuses on the development, manufacturing, testing and marketing of medical devices to medical companies, clinics and hospitals.  Intercompany revenues relating to the manufacturing of devices by the Technology segment for the other segments is included on the intersegment revenues line.

 

Expenses that can be specifically identified with a segment have been included as deductions in determining pre-tax segment income.  Any remaining expenses, including research and development costs incurred by the Technology segment for the benefit of the other segments, as well as the elimination of costs associated with intercompany revenues are included in Corporate and Other.  Also included in Corporate and Other is our net interest expense and other financing expenses as well as the loss from equity method investments.  We do not allocate assets to the individual segments.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, and in conjunction with the accompanying quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth herein and elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  See the “Forward-Looking Statements” section at the beginning of this report.

 

Company Background

 

We provide cardiac monitoring services, cardiac monitoring device manufacturing and centralized core laboratory services.  We operate under three reportable segments:  Healthcare, Research and Technology.  The Healthcare segment is focused on the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiac arrhythmias, or heart rhythm disorders. We offer cardiologists and electrophysiologists with a full spectrum of solutions which provides them with a single source of cardiac monitoring services.  These services range from the differentiated Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (“MCT”) service marketed as Mobile Cardiac Outpatient TelemetryTM (“MCOTTM”) or External Cardiac Ambulatory Telemetry (“ECAT”), to wireless and trans-telephonic event, Holter, Pacemaker and International Normalized Ratio (“INR”) monitoring.  The Research segment is engaged in central core laboratory services providing cardiac monitoring, imaging, scientific consulting and data management services for pharmaceutical and medical device clinical trials.  The Technology segment focuses on the development, manufacturing, testing and marketing of medical devices to medical companies, clinics and hospitals.

 

Recent Acquisitions

 

On March 25, 2016, the Company entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger with VirtualScopics, Inc. (“VirtualScopics”), a leading provider of clinical trial imaging solutions.  Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company commenced a Tender Offer to purchase any and all outstanding shares of VirtualScopics’ common stock and preferred stock.  The all cash Tender Offer commenced on April 8, 2016 and ended on May 9, 2016, pursuant to which the business and operations of VirtualScopics were acquired by the Company.  The total consideration paid at closing amounted to $15.0 million, net of cash acquired of $0.8 million.

 

On April 1, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with DELTA Danish Electronics, Light, and Acoustics (“DELTA”), pursuant to which the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the ePatch division of DELTA, inclusive of all products and indications currently under development.  The total consideration paid at closing amounted to $3.0 million in cash and 244,519 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $2.9 million.  In addition, there is the potential for a performance based earn out up to $3.0 million upon reaching certain milestones, as defined in the APA.  The fair value of the total consideration transferred in the acquisition, including contingent consideration, was $6.5 million at the acquisition date.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Healthcare

 

Healthcare revenue includes revenue from MCT, wireless and trans telephonic event, Holter, Pacemaker and INR monitoring services.  We receive a significant portion of our revenue from third-party commercial insurance organizations and governmental entities.  We also receive reimbursement directly from patients through co-pays and self-pay arrangements.  Billings for services reimbursed by contracted third-party payors, including Medicare, are recorded as revenue, net of contractual allowances.  Adjustments to the estimated receipts, based on final settlement with the third-party payors, are recorded upon settlement.  If we do not have sufficient historical information regarding collectability from a given payor to support revenue recognition at the time of service, revenue is recognized when cash is received.  Unearned amounts are appropriately deferred until the service has been completed.  For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, revenue from Medicare as a percentage of our Healthcare revenue was 41.4% and 40.7%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, revenue from Medicare as a percentage of our Healthcare revenue was 41.6% and 41.0%, respectively.

Table of Contents

 

Research

 

Research revenue includes revenue for core laboratory services, including cardiac monitoring, imaging, scientific consulting and data management services.  Our Research revenue is provided on a fee-for-service basis, and revenue is recognized as the related services are performed.  We also provide consulting services on a time and materials basis and this revenue is recognized as the services are performed.  Our site support revenue, consisting of equipment rentals and sales along with related supplies and logistics management, are recognized at the time of sale or over the rental period.  Under a typical contract, customers pay us a portion of our fee for these services upon contract execution as an upfront deposit, some of which is typically nonrefundable upon contract termination.  Unearned revenues, including upfront deposits, are deferred, and then recognized as the services are performed.

 

For arrangements with multiple deliverables, the revenue is allocated to each element (both delivered and undelivered items) based on their relative selling prices or management’s best estimate of their selling prices, when vendor-specific or third-party evidence is unavailable.

 

We record reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred, including freight, as revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Technology

 

Technology revenue includes revenue received from the sale of products, product repairs and supplies to medical companies, clinics and hospitals.  Our Technology revenue is recognized when shipped, or as service is completed.

 

Reimbursement - Healthcare

 

We are dependent on reimbursement for our patient services by government and commercial insurance payors.  Medicare reimbursement rates for our MCT, event, Holter, Pacemaker and INR monitoring services have been established nationally by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) and fluctuate periodically based on the annually published CMS rate table.

 

In addition to government reimbursement through Medicare, we have successfully secured contracts with most national and regional commercial payors for our monitoring services.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable related to the Healthcare segment are recorded at the time revenue is recognized, net of contractual allowances, and are presented on the consolidated balance sheets net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.  The ultimate collection of accounts receivable may not be known for several months after services have been provided and billed.  We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the aging of receivables using company-specific historical data.  The percentages and amounts used to record bad debt expense and the allowance for doubtful accounts are supported by various methods and analyses, including current and historical cash collections and the aging of receivables by payor.  Because of continuing changes in the healthcare industry and third-party reimbursement, it is possible that our estimates of collectability could change, which could have a material impact on our operations and cash flows.

 

Other accounts receivable related to the Research and Technology segments are recorded at the time revenue is recognized, or when products are shipped or services are performed.  We estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts on a specific account basis and consider several factors in our analysis, including customer-specific information and the aging of the account.

 

We write-off receivables when the likelihood for collection is remote and when we believe collection efforts have been fully exhausted and we do not intend to devote additional resources in attempting to collect. We perform write-offs on a monthly basis.  In the Healthcare segment, we wrote off $3.9 million and $3.1 million of receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  The impact was a reduction of gross receivables and a reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts.  There were no material write-offs in the Research and Technology segments.  We recorded bad debt expense of $2.7 million and $5.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. We recorded bad debt expense of $2.2 million and $4.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Other Charges

 

Other charges are related to litigation, strategic acquisitions, cost reduction programs and reorganizations, as well as other costs that are not considered part of our ongoing business operations.

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

 

Revenues.   Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $52.7 million compared to $44.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, reflecting an increase of $7.9 million, or 17.6%.  Healthcare revenue increased $5.9 million due to increased patient volumes as well as higher MCT Medicare pricing.  Research revenue increased $2.5 million, primarily due to the acquisition of VirtualScopics during the quarter.  Technology revenue decreased $0.5 million due to lower sales volume resulting from customers delaying purchases as they await the release of upgraded devices.

 

Gross Profit.   Gross profit increased to $32.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $26.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, reflecting an increase of $6.2 million, or 23.1%.  Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 62.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 59.7% for the three months ended June, 2015.  The increase in gross margin percentage was due to volume efficiencies, higher MCT Medicare pricing as well as reduced costs related to shipping and device monitoring.  These increases were partially offset by the impact of our acquisitions, which carry lower profit margins than our existing business.

 

General and Administrative Expense.   General and administrative expense was $14.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $12.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase of $2.2 million, or 17.9%, was due to the addition of $1.0 million for our acquired businesses as well as a $1.0 million increase in employee related expense and a $0.4 million increase in stock-based compensation.  These increases were partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in amortization as intangible assets have become fully amortized.  As a percent of total revenues, general and administrative expense was 27.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 27.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Sales and Marketing Expense.   Sales and marketing expense was $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase of $0.2 million, or 2.9%, was due to the addition of $0.3 million for our acquired businesses, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in employee related costs.  As a percent of total revenues, sales and marketing expense was 13.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 15.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Bad Debt Expense.   Bad debt expense was $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase of $0.5 million, or 22.5%, was due to the timing of revenues and collections.  As a percentage of total revenues, bad debt expense was 5.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 4.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  Substantially all of our bad debt expense relates to the Healthcare segment.  Bad debt expense in the Research and Technology segments, which include our recently acquired companies, was minimal and is recorded on a specific account basis.

 

Research and Development Expense.   Research and development expense was $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase of $0.4 million, or 20.5%, was due to the addition of $0.3 million for our acquired businesses and a $0.1 million increase in consulting costs.  As a percent of total revenues, research and development expense was 3.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 3.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Other Charges.   During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we incurred $1.7 million of other charges primarily related to legal fees for patent litigation as well as professional services related to our second quarter acquisitions.  For the three months ended June 30, 2016, other charges were 3.1% of total revenues.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we incurred $1.2 million of other charges.  Legal expense of $1.2 million was primarily related to patent litigation.  For the three months ended June 30, 2015, other charges were 2.7% of total revenues.

 

Interest and Other Loss, net.   Interest and other loss, net was $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase was due to our share of our equity method investee’s loss as well as an increase in interest expense due to increased borrowings under the Revolving Loans.

 

Income Taxes.   At June 30, 2016, our estimated annual effective tax rate was a provision of 3.81% and we had income tax expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016.  At June 30, 2015, our estimated annual effective tax rate was a provision of 6.42% and a slight income tax benefit was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 includes a detailed discussion of our liquidity, contractual obligations and commitments.  The information presented below updates and should be read in conjunction with the information disclosed in that Form 10-K.

 

As of June 30, 2016, our principal source of liquidity was cash and cash equivalents of $25.4 million and net accounts and other receivables of $28.4 million.  We had working capital of $30.4 million as of June 30, 2016.

 

We generated $17.5 million of cash from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2016.  Our ongoing operations during this period resulted in net income of $8.3 million, which included $15.0 million of non-cash items primarily related to bad debt, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense.  These items were partially offset by $5.8 million of cash used for working capital.

 

We used $23.7 million of cash in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016.  We used $15.0 million, net of cash acquired, in the acquisition of VirtualScopics and $3.0 million in the acquisition of the ePatch Division of DELTA.  In addition, we used $5.7 million of cash for capital purchases primarily related to medical devices in the Healthcare and Research segments for use in our ongoing operations and an investment in internally developed software for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

In December 2014, we entered into a $25.0 million Term Loan and $15.0 Revolving Loans with Healthcare Financial Solutions, LLC, previously The General Electric Capital Corporation.  During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we borrowed $14.5 million under the revolving loan.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Our cash balance as of June 30, 2016 was $25.4 million.  We do not invest in any trading securities, nor do we use derivative financial instruments.

 

At June 30, 2016, we had $37.9 million of variable rate debt, exclusive of debt discounts and deferred charges, based off of LIBOR rates.  A change in LIBOR rates would result in an incremental change in interest expense.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2016 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in these reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, and like others in the industry, we receive requests for information from government agencies in connection with their regulatory or investigational authority or are involved in traditional employment or business litigation.  We review such requests and notices and take appropriate action.

 

The final outcome of any current or future litigation or governmental or internal investigations cannot be accurately predicted, nor can we predict any resulting penalties, fines or other sanctions that may be imposed at the discretion of federal or state regulatory authorities.  We record accruals for such contingencies to the extent that it concludes it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be projected.
