PART I
Item 1. Business
Company Overview
OneMedNet is a global provider of clinical imaging innovation and curator of regulatory-grade Imaging Real World Data (“iRWDTM”) OneMedNet’s innovative solutions connect healthcare providers and patients satisfying a crucial need within the life sciences field offering direct access to clinical images and the associated contextual patient record. OneMedNet’s innovative technology proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging Real World Data (as defined below), an emerging market, and provides regulatory-grade image-centric iRWDTM that exactly matches OneMedNet’s life science partners case selection protocols and paves the way for Real World Evidence (as defined below).
OneMedNet was founded to solve a deficiency in how clinical images were shared between healthcare providers. This resulted in OMN’s initial product BEAMTM image exchange that enabled the successful sharing of images for more than a decade with OMN’s largest customer being the Republic of Ireland.
OneMedNet continued to innovate by responding to the demand for and utilization of Real World Data (as defined below) (“RWD”) and Real World Evidence (RWE), specifically data that focused on clinical images with its associated contextual clinical record. We were able to leverage internal technological competencies along with OneMedNet’s formidable healthcare provider installed base from its first product with BEAMTM to become the first RWD solution for life science companies with its launch of iRWDTM in 2019.
OneMedNet provides innovative solutions that unlock the significant value contained within clinical image archives. With a growing federated network of 95+ healthcare facilities, OneMedNet has the immediate ability to quickly search and extensively curate multi-layer data from a federated group of healthcare facilities. The term “healthcare facilities” refers specifically to the hospitals, integrated delivery networks (“IDNs”) and imaging centers that provide imaging to OneMedNet, which represent the core source of our data. At present, OneMedNet works with more than 95 facilities who provide regulatory grade imaging to us. OneMedNet has access to these more than 95 facilities because these contracted facilities have more than 200 locations among them including offices and clinics, which in total generates regulatory grade imaging from more than 200 customers. Among these customers, all are data providers, and some are data purchasers.
Initially, it was all about solving the diverse access needs of patient care providers. This focus systematically evolved to addressing the rapidly growing needs of image analysis and researchers, clinicians, regulators, scientists and more. The federated network allows OneMedNet to access the following data to provide to research as RWD.
Real World Data is any data that is collected in the context of the routine delivery of care, in contrast to data collected within a clinical trial where study design controls variability in ways that are not representative of Real World care and outcomes.
A key component driving its mission is that OneMedNet believes we have a unique opportunity to affect a material positive impact on the lives of tens of millions of people while improving our customers’ business productivity. First and foremost, OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering plays a significant role in enabling life science companies to bring safer and more effective patient care to market sooner. Using our highly curated de-identified clinical data in our iRWDTM offering in life science product development, validation, and regulatory approval processes, life science companies contribute to patient care advancements in more meaningful ways. Moreover, life sciences improve life science companies’ product development and validation processes, which benefits all parties.

Significant documentation exists that shows that Real World Data can provide expanded insights across broader and more representative patient populations. For this reason, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has instituted Real World Data guidelines for regulatory approvals. Utilization of highly reliable and quality Real World Data that strictly adheres to all of the very specific data stratification requirements can supplement or supplant clinical trials.
OneMedNet covers the complete value chain in imaging Real World Data; it begins with our 10+ year federated network of providers and is supported by a multi-faceted data curation process managed by an expert in-house clinical team. Additionally, we work hand-in-hand with our life science partners regarding the case selection protocol and, when required, producing case report forms for regulatory clearance. We are focused on delivering value by supporting life science advancements with OneMedNet’s iRWDTM which holds the key to unlocking boundless patient care advances. We believe we unleash the power of research-grade image-centric iRWDTM that is curated to meet every cohort requirement and stand up to the rigors of prospective clinical trials.
Today, life science companies, including pharmaceutical companies, artificial intelligence (“AI”) developers, medical device businesses, and clinical research organizations, share the same widespread challenge in obtaining insight-rich, high-quality patient data that explicitly matches their precise cohort specifications. A substantial portion of patient diagnosis involves clinical imaging, and approximately 90% of healthcare data, by size, is associated with imaging. Historically, much of imaging value has been derived from its initial review, and further gains from the image archives have been very limited.
We help providers to “Unlock the Value in Imaging Archives.”TM By utilizing OneMedNet’s iRWDTM offering, providers can greatly improve their research efforts with streamlined data access. Health care providers such as hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers can also accelerate life science patient care innovations by sharing de-identified data in a well-defined and de-identified and secure manner. In return for doing so, income is generated and applied to critical and possibly unfunded provider projects.
The OneMedNet Difference
We believe OneMedNet has been a leader in the business of extracting, securing, and transferring medical data for 10+ years. Doing so requires specialized expertise in:
● | Compliance (HIPAA (as defined below), GDPR, 21 CFR Part11) | |
● | Advanced privacy & security measures | |
● | Clinical patient condition(s) and hospital processes | |
● | Radiology interpretation | |
● | AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning) technology |
Attaining in-house expertise in all essential elements is a challenge and we believe deters many organizations from attempting such a venture. We take pride in this ambitious achievement - while continually working to maintain state-of-the-art expertise. OneMedNet strictly adheres to the highest level of professional and ethical standards and applicable regulations throughout all interactions and activities.
We believe OneMedNet is a leader in the field of regulatory-grade imaging RWD curators. Doing so requires specialized expertise in AI/ML technology, data privacy/security, as well as expertise in clinical patient condition(s) and healthcare record keeping. Having, or achieving, expertise in all essential disciplines is a challenging achievement. OneMedNet had a significant head start with our clinical image exchange solution which served to launch the Company over a decade ago. All data remains “native” within the federated OneMedNet iRWDTM provider network - meaning all the data remains locally onsite until specific de-identified data is licensed for a particular life science research opportunity.
OneMedNet’s Competitive Advantages
We believe that OneMedNet iRWDTM offers the best of advanced technology, clinical expert curation, and service. Medical imaging and associated clinical data are indexed at each network site using state-of-the-art AI/ML technology. This typically includes electronic health records (“EHR”), radiology, cardiology, lab, pathology and more. Our in-house clinical team performs intensive curation of the data so that results meet the specifications and requirements of life science Data Collection Protocol (“DCP”) - regardless of the complexity.
We believe that OneMedNet unlocks the value in imaging and EHR data in the following three principal ways:
● | Regulatory Grade - Our imaging results serve as proof of effectiveness for regulatory agencies, meeting requirements for quality & diversity. |
2 |
● | On Demand - Our powerful indexing platform accesses and harmonizes complete patient profiles across fragmented data silos, delivering images and records on-demand. | |
● | Expertly Curated - We curate to the most stringent multi-level stratified requirements, providing unmatched data accuracy and completeness. |
OneMedNet’s data is fully de-identified using a multi-step quality control process and goes beyond protected health information (“PHI”) to include personally identifiable information (“PII”), site identifiable information, and more. Importantly, life science users receive the data in the exact format that they require. No data sifting or manipulation is needed. The data is simply ready for use. Moreover, OneMedNet has the unique combination of knowledge, tools, and experience to:
● | Access and harmonize complete patient profiles across fragmented data silos; |
● | Provide unmatched data accuracy and completeness; |
● | Ensure the security and privacy of patients’ PHI; |
● | Imaging RWD is our singular passion and focus and no one does it better. |
Finally, OneMedNet has a team of highly experienced and clinically trained data curators. This team appreciates the complexity and criticality of clinical data and can effectively communicate with both providers and life science specialists.

Industry Background
A 2016 analysis published in the Journal of Health Economics and authored by the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development placed the cost of bringing a drug to market, including post-approval research and development, at a staggering $2.87 billion. Meanwhile, a 2018 study from the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development noted that the timeline for new drug development ranged from 12.8 years for the average drug to 17.2 years for ultra-orphan drugs that only affect several hundred patients. This places the onus on life science organizations to find ways to deliver treatments to patients faster - especially those who cannot wait 17 years for a potentially life-saving treatment. Knowing how a medicinal product is actually used by patients can help stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem make important and potentially life-saving real-time decisions.
Real World Data is observational data typically gathered when an approved medical product is on the market and used by “real” patients in real life, as opposed to clinical trials or real world images for real patients. The FDA cites several potential sources of Real World Data, including EHR, claims, and disease and product registries. There are multiple types of data including structured and unstructured data, clinical and billing data, transactional and claims data, patient-generated data, and data gathered from additional sources that can shed light on a patient’s health status and more. As reliance on healthcare data grows exponentially, OneMedNet has observed that the reliance on information has increased coming from multiple additional sources including EHR, claims, registries, clinical trials, patient and provider surveys, wearable devices and more. These additional sources include the internet of things (“IoT”), social media forums and blogs. Real World Data has the potential to break down inefficiencies and fill gaps in information silos among stakeholders throughout the healthcare ecosystem of providers, payers, manufacturers, government entities and patients. This information sharing, in turn, enables all parties to derive new insights, support value-based care and deliver better health outcomes.
Commercializing a drug requires its developer to harness various sources of Real World Data to identify patient populations and refine sales and marketing strategies for those populations among many other undertakings. Historically, this practice involved purchasing large amounts of data from data aggregators or data platforms, if not directly from the source itself, sometimes without much knowledge about the quality of the data. Preparing this data for analysis is both expensive and time-consuming; thus, many organizations would outsource the process to consultants or third-party vendors. Moreover, the process of preparing this data for analysis by untrained consultants can yield a static analysis that is difficult to modify or rerun in response to follow-up questions or potential discrepancies.
Definitions of Real World Data and Real World Evidence
Real World Data has become a powerful tool in the life sciences industry. After decades of relying on clinical data as the gold standard for decision making, industry leaders now recognize how data collected in the real world adds valuable context and insight to their efforts. From identifying unmet medical needs and defining the patient journey, to supporting regulatory submissions, proving value to payers, and shaping market strategies, Real World Data adds value at every stage of the drug development lifecycle. Real World Data also sets the foundation for Real World Evidence, and while the terms are often used interchangeably, they are distinct, and they are changing health care. Here’s how it happens:
1. | First, Real World Data are data relating to patient health status and/or the delivery of health care routinely collected from a variety of sources. Real World Data is aggregated and transformed such as through OneMedNet’s robust analytics. Real World Data are the data relating to patient health status and/or the delivery of health care routinely collected from a variety of sources. There are many different types, sources and uses of Real World Data, for example: |
● | Clinical Data - For example, clinical data from EHR and case report forms (“eCRF”) including biopsies and other pathology tests, diagnostic imaging, social determinants of health, cancer organoids, which provide patient demographics, family history, comorbidities, procedure and treatment history, and outcomes. | |
● | Patient Generated Data - For example, patient-generated data from patient-reported outcome surveys, which data provide insights directly from the patient and help researchers understand what happens outside of clinic visits, procedures, and hospital stays. | |
● | Cost and Utilization Data (Qualitative Studies) - For example, cost and utilization data from claims and public datasets, which data provides information regarding healthcare services utilization, population coverage, and prescribing patterns. | |
● | Public Health Data - For example, public health data from various government data sources, which add critical information to enable stakeholders to best serve the needs of the populations they serve. |
4 |
The availability of medical imaging in Real World Data such as that provided by OneMedNet is facilitated by the development of digital image analysis to increase the accuracy of diagnostics and conduct passive screening on large databases of medical images using AI algorithms such as those applied by OneMedNet. Algorithms can also help identify additional diagnostic tests of value from medical images with pathology.
Real World Evidence is the clinical evidence regarding the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real World Data, as defined by the FDA. Real World Evidence can be generated by different study designs or analyses, including but not limited to randomized trials, including large simple trials, pragmatic trials, and observational studies (prospective and/or retrospective). The difference in Real World Evidence and Real World Data focuses on the end use case. Real World Data can take the form of claims, EHR, labs, data etc. Often this insight is used to better understand a patient’s journey or a natural history of a disorder (how does a disease progress if left untreated.)
Real World Evidence in contrast builds upon many of these data sets and prepares them for submission, as part of regulatory review such as to the FDA or the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”), for example, in support of a customer’s clinical trial application. When data and, in particular, imaging data is submitted to the FDA, the agency requires the following:
● | Guard against bias - evidence must align with the patient population being studied - expectations focus on the similar patient demographics, comorbidities, disease severity, etc.; |
● | Traceability - confirm the chain of custody, the source of the data is known and can be validated if required; and |
● | Go-forward basis - regulatory agencies seek evidence that aligns with the trial’s timeframe and, when possible, collect evidence that mirrors the clinical trial’s timeline. |
One area where Real World Evidence has been relied on heavily relates to oncology approvals. The FDA’s Oncology Center of Excellence presented an analysis of this at the American Society of Clinical Oncology in 2021, looking at oncology applications containing Real World Data and Real World Evidence. That analysis looked at 94 applications that were submitted from 2011–2020 and showed that inclusion of Real World Data to support regulatory decision-making has increased dramatically over that period. In 2020 alone, there were 28 submissions for oncology products that contained Real World Data. Outside of the oncology context, probably the most notable recent example of an approval relying on Real World Evidence is the FDA’s July 2021 approval of a new indication for Astella Pharma Inc.’s’ drug program (or tacrolimus) for the prevention of organ rejection in lung transplant patients. The approval there was based on a non-interventional study providing Real World Evidence of effectiveness. FDA’s press release announcing the approval noted that the approval was “significant because it reflects how a well-designed, non-interventional study relying on fit-for-purpose Real World data, when compared to a suitable control, can be considered adequate and well-controlled under FDA regulations.”
An additional recent approval of note was the FDA’s December 2021 approval of the supplemental BLA (Biological License Application) for Orencia® to prevent graft versus host disease. The application included data from a randomized clinical trial, with additional evidence of effectiveness provided by a registry-based clinical study that was conducted using Real World data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. That registry study analyzed outcomes of 54 patients treated with Orencia® for the prevention of graft versus host disease, in combination with standard immunosuppressive drugs, versus 162 patients treated with the standard immunosuppressive drugs alone, and showed efficacy in that indication.

AI is employed in Real World Data to enhance data anomaly detection, standardization, and quality checking at the pre-processing stage. AI is expected to offer pharma and biotech companies the ability to increase meaningful Real World Evidence output, decrease time to insights, and make the most of the available vast data sources. A Real World Evidence technology platform that delivers smart data processing, analysis, and outcomes offers an unparalleled opportunity to capitalize on these computing advancements.
When used as part of an overall comprehensive Real World Evidence strategy, AI innovations can enhance drug development, improve patient treatment and access, and drive valuable new business opportunities.
In post-marketing studies, adverse events reporting is an area where AI is used, creating greater automation and efficiency in historical data sets. Techniques like natural language processing (“NLP”) enable AI to scan tens of thousands of records and quickly find adverse event details. AI-integrated analytics and automation provide access to crucial insights from historical clinical trial Real World Data and Real World Evidence, expanding end-to-end clinical trial capabilities:
● | Data ingestion - publicly/historically available Real World Data | |
● | Text extraction - NLP used to extract key entities from clinical trial documents | |
● | Data transformation & standardization - data standardization using pre-built models | |
● | AI model deployment - predicting trial design impacts on costs, feasibility, cycle times, and quality risk |
AI is driving ground-breaking leaps in protein structure identification, and advances in regulations are providing healthcare research organizations with access to Real World data to accelerate clinical trial processes. We believe that AI-enabled technologies have unparalleled potential to offer innovative trial design and collection, organizing, and analyzing the increasing amount of data generated by clinical trials. AI has many applications in clinical trials, both short and long-term. AI technologies make possible innovations crucial for transforming clinical trials, such as seamlessly combining Phases I and II, developing novel patient-centered endpoints, and collecting and analyzing Real World Data.
OneMedNet believes that AI tools also have wider benefits for hospitals and health systems. Professor Alexander Wong, University of Waterloo Canada Research Chair in AI and Medical Imaging, points out that AI benefits include the potential to ease the burden on radiology departments in terms of assessing scans and predicting upcoming demand for general hospital and intensive care beds, and demand for equipment such as respirators and ventilators, medicines, masks, and ventilator mouthpieces, as well as aiding workforce planning.

Across a diverse set of imaging modalities, digital images typically include metadata and/or annotations that may include protected health information (e.g., patient name, date of birth). Although diagnostic images generally do not warrant the same level of privacy concerns as genomic data, researchers must also remove facial characteristics or other features that could identify a patient.
Digital image analysis can be used to support research and development by analyzing large volumes of tissue specimens or other medical images to run molecular screens that model biomarkers and treatment responses by transplanting a portion of a patient’s tumor into humanized mice or 3D tissue cultures derived from stem cells that resemble miniature organs. These models allow researchers to conduct controlled laboratory experiments that can inform treatment approaches and link predicted treatment response to actual clinical outcomes by linking this data to EHR, claims, and other sources of Real World Data. Similarly, preclinical studies can be informed by safety assessments conducted in animal models or studies of animal molecular biomarkers or anatomic abnormalities to minimize the burden on human study participants. Findings can also inform clinical trial optimization by stratifying participants according to predicted response and determining appropriate eligibility criteria.
2. | Second, Real World Evidence is the clinical evidence about the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real World Data. Real World Evidence provides clinically-rich insights into what actually happens in everyday practice and why. The U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 (“FD&C Act”) defines Real World Evidence as “data regarding the usage, or the potential benefits or risks, of a drug derived from sources other than traditional clinical trials.” In developing its Real World Evidence program, the FDA believes it is helpful to distinguish between the sources of Real World Data and the evidence derived from that data. |
Evaluating Real World Evidence in the context of regulatory decision-making depends not only on the evaluation of the methodologies used to generate the evidence but also on the reliability and relevance of the underlying Real World Data; these constructs may raise different types of considerations. Real World Evidence refers to evidence about the risks and benefits of a product derived from analysis of the Real World Data. For example, the FDA has used Real World Data and Real World Evidence, derived from its Sentinel System, the largest multisite distributed database in the world dedicated to medical product safety, for monitoring the safety of regulated products, in place of post-marketing studies. It has carried this out for nine potential safety issues involving five products.
Real World Evidence is the clinical evidence regarding the usage and potential benefits or risks of a medical product derived from analysis of Real World Data. Real World Evidence can be generated by different study designs or analysis, including but not limited to, randomized trials, including large simple trials, pragmatic trials, and observational studies (prospective and/or retrospective).
Unlike traditional clinical trials, where necessary data elements can be curated and collection mandated, the creation of Real World Evidence requires assessing, validating and aggregating various, often disparate, sources of data available through routine clinical practice. Real World Evidence is used by different stakeholders in many different ways.
● | It gives life sciences companies insight into how their drugs are being used. | |
● | It helps providers improve the delivery of care. | |
● | It enables regulatory authorities to monitor post-market safety and adverse events. | |
● | It helps payers assess outcomes from treatments. |
From Real World Data to Real World Evidence
The creation of Real World Evidence requires a combination of high-powered analytics, a validated approach and a robust knowledge of available Real World Data sources (e.g., what data is captured within existing quality registries, what data can be captured through EHR and case report forms or claims, and which patient organizations capture data on relevant patient cohorts). This process includes several steps, which are summarized here:
1. | Defining a study protocol answering relevant clinical questions. |
2. | Defining which data elements can be collected from which Real World Data sources. |
3. | Establishing data capture arrangements and protocols with existing Real World Data sources. |
4. | Blending disparate data sources through probabilistic record matching algorithms. |
5. | Validating and supplementing blended data through editable eCRFs. |
6. | Defining and calculating clinically relevant outcomes and measures. |
7. | Appropriately assessing and controlling for variability in data quality, availability and confounding patient factors affecting measured outcomes. |
8. | Real World Evidence can provide a holistic view of patients that in many cases cannot be studied through traditional clinical trials. |
7 |
Real World Evidence has been proven to fill a gap between research (what we learn) and everyday practice (what we do) in healthcare, and it creates a difference between what is expected to happen and what really happens. Driving measurable improvements in healthcare requires us all to be rooted in the reality of what actually happens before, during, and after clinical procedures, interventions, and office visits. Real World Evidence fills those gaps and documents the truth by establishing definitively what really happens when doctors treat a wide range of patients that do not look like the homogeneous patient groups in a clinical trial. Because of this, Real World Evidence serves many uses and provides many benefits across the healthcare ecosystem.
As more countries battle to contain healthcare costs, and as the population ages and the number of patients with chronic diseases increases, the need to remove inefficiencies and upgrade the delivery of coordinated care that improves outcomes is more pressing. At the same time, life sciences companies are facing tumultuous times. Industry globalization, the end of the blockbuster era, and an increasingly complex regulatory environment all add to the difficulty of bringing products to market. And across the board, companies are moving toward a patient-centric and outcome-focused model. In this environment, Real World Evidence can be transformative for the industry when Real World Data is combined with the right technology framework and the regulatory intelligence to make sense of it. As data is consumed across life sciences in different ways and by different stakeholders, it can provide valuable insights and “evidence” across the product life cycle. In addition, stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem use this new knowledge to support decision-making and improve safety and effectiveness, and ultimately, patient outcomes.
Uses of Real World Evidence in Life Sciences, Among Regulators, Clinicians, Researchers and Healthcare Systems
According to repeated studies by Deloitte, the importance of Real World Evidence continues to rise as it promises to accelerate regulatory decision-making and support the approval of new indications for drugs already on the market. Life sciences, pharmaceutical and medical device companies are significant consumers of Real World Evidence because it can provide value across the entire product lifecycle from pre-trial design to clinical studies and trials to post-market surveillance. Medical product developers are using Real World Evidence to support clinical trial designs (e.g., large simple trials, pragmatic clinical trials) and observational studies to generate innovative, new treatment approaches.
Real World Evidence can be used to make clinical trials more effective and efficient, for example in patient recruitment or label extension, Real World Evidence gathered from other studies or from currently marketed products in a similar category, for example, can have a positive effect on the product portfolio by exposing positive side effects as new potential indications. The most famous example is Viagra, which was initially studied as a drug to lower blood pressure, but an unexpected side effect led to the drug ultimately being approved for erectile dysfunction.
The benefits of Real World Evidence derived from Real World Data are increasingly being recognized by regulatory authorities. The FDA released a framework for using Real World Evidence to support the process of drug regulation and submission. This is a major step toward recognizing that clinical trials, while still relevant, are not the only way to assess the efficacy and safety of a product. Indeed, the FDA is soon expected to conduct its first full post-market safety approval using only Real World Evidence.
Real World Evidence is now accepted as a reliable source of information for regulatory decision making in certain circumstances. A primary rationale for the FDA to use Real World Evidence is to help support the approval of a new or extended use for a drug approved under the FD&C Act and to help support or satisfy post-approval study requirements always with the condition that the data quality is up to the standard required. In a recent statement, the FDA even noted how new tools for capturing data in the post-market period, including more sophisticated use of Real World Data and Real World Evidence are providing new approaches to address important questions about the safety and benefits of new drugs in real world settings and that these approaches have the potential to do to so more rapidly and with greater efficiency than traditional methods.
Why Do We Need Real World Evidence?
There is a gap between research (what we learn) and everyday practice (what we do) in healthcare, and it creates a difference between what is expected to happen and what really happens. But it is what really happens that matters. Driving measurable improvements in healthcare requires us all to be rooted in the reality of what actually happens before, during, and after clinical procedures, interventions, and office visits. Real World Evidence is here to fill those gaps and root us in truth. It tells us what really happens when doctors treat a wide range of patients that don’t look like the homogeneous patient groups in a clinical trial. Because of this, Real World Evidence serves many uses and provides many benefits across the healthcare ecosystem.

Uses of Real World Evidence in Pharmaceutical and Device Companies
Pharmaceutical and medical device companies are major consumers of Real World Evidence, as it can provide value across the entire product lifecycle. Real World Evidence plays an important role for research across the product lifecycle for both pharmaceutical and device companies. It can inform pre-trial study design by helping researchers identify potential patients and create proper inclusion criteria for clinical trials. Much of medical innovation is driven by traditional clinical trials, where new pharmaceuticals and devices are rigorously studied and tracked before they can be sold and widely distributed.
Although clinical trials are incredibly important to determine the safety and efficacy of new technologies, when compared to Real World Evidence, they do have some limitations. For example, a traditional clinical trial can have strict inclusion criteria that makes it challenging for providers to accurately extrapolate the results of a clinical trial to a broader population. Clinical trial participation is often limited by who the study administrators are able to recruit, and various demographics are often not able to participate. This again challenges the generalizability of clinical trial results across patient populations. Real World Evidence can help overcome the limitations of clinical trials by providing information about a broader cross-section of society. This can help clinicians, researchers, and industry partners better understand their products and how they work.
Once a product is approved and marketed, Real World Evidence assists pharmaceutical or medical device companies understand their products’ relative safety, effectiveness, value, off-label use and more. This post-market surveillance, or post-marketing surveillance, is valuable to stakeholders across the healthcare industry.
The AI-enabled patient enrichment and recruitment process can improve suitable cohorts and increase clinical trial effectiveness, data management, analysis, and interpretation of multiple Real World Data sources, including EHR and medical imaging data. This presents a unique opportunity for NLP to perform the sophisticated analysis necessary to combine genomic data with electronic medical records (“EMR”) and other patient data, present in various locations, owners, and formats - from handwritten paper copies to digital medical images - to surface biomarkers that lead to endpoints that can be more efficiently measured, and thereby identify and characterize appropriate patient subpopulations. AI-enabled systems can help to improve patient cohort composition and aid with patient recruitment.
AI technologies can help biopharma companies identify target locations, qualified investigators, and priority candidates and collect and collate evidence to satisfy regulators that the trial process complies with good clinical practice requirements. One of the most important elements of a clinical trial is a selection of high-functioning investigator sites. Site qualities such as resource availability, administrative procedures, and experienced clinicians with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the disease can shape study timelines and data quality, accuracy, completeness, and consistency.
AI integrated clinical trial programs can help monitor and manage patients by automating Real World Data capture, sharing data across systems, and digitalizing standard clinical assessments. AI technologies and wearable technologies can help enable continuous patient monitoring and generate real-time insights into the safety and effectiveness of treatment while predicting the possible risk of dropouts, thereby enhancing patient engagement and retention. To comply with trial adherence criteria, patients must keep detailed records of their medication intake and other data points related to their bodily functions, response to medication, and daily protocols. This can be an overwhelming and tedious task, leading to 40% of patients becoming non-adherent after 150 days into a clinical trial. Wearable devices/sensors and video monitoring are used to collect patient data automatically and continuously, thereby relieving the patient of this task. In combination with wearable technology, AI techniques offer new approaches to developing real-time, power-efficient, mobile, and personalized patient monitoring systems.

Among regulators, clinicians, academic researchers and healthcare systems, the reliance on curated Real World Evidence has grown significantly because of the value it can provide, which is unique relative to each parties’ objectives and mandates. It also helps that the FDA has also sharpened its focus on Real World Data and Real World Evidence. For example, in late 2022, the FDA published proposed guidance related to data standards for product submissions with Real World Data and also weighed in on the use of Real World Data and Real World Evidence to support regulatory decision-making for drugs and biological products with specific advice for data from EHR and medical claims. In addition, the FDA uses Real World Data and Real World Evidence to monitor post-market safety and adverse events and to make regulatory decisions. The health care community is using these data to support coverage decisions and to develop guidelines and decision support tools for use in clinical practice.
AI with deep-learning capability is also helpful in organizing and translating a vast amount of structured and unstructured data to Real World Evidence. The human mind can possibly manage 4-5 variables; therefore, AI-enabled data mapping and integration and their normalization into a common data model according to disease pathway and workflow will likely be useful for both quality management in clinical trials and generating meaningful insight for human disease by providing a broader perspective based on Real World data.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. The risks and uncertainties we have described in this Amended Form 10-K are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We may not be successful in preventing the material adverse effects that any of the following risks and uncertainties may cause.
You should carefully consider the following risks, as well as the other information contained in this Amended Form 10-K, including our historical financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Amended Form 10-K. Any one of these risks and uncertainties has the potential to cause material adverse effects on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results which could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements expressed by us and a significant decrease in the value of our Common Stock and warrants. Refer to “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Risks Related to Our Business
We have a history of operating losses and may never achieve profitability in the future.
We have experienced net losses in each annual period since inception. We generated net losses of $33.8 million and $30.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had accumulated losses of approximately $91.4 million.
We expect to continue to incur significant losses in the development, marketing, sale and delivery of our services. If we do not grow our revenues or if we lose existing customers, we expect to continue to incur losses from operations for the foreseeable future. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development, marketing, sale and delivery of our iRWDTM services, we may experience larger than expected future losses and may never become profitable. Moreover, there is a substantial risk that we may not be able to successfully commercialize our iRWDTM services, which would make it unlikely that we would ever achieve profitability.
OneMedNet believes it has demonstrated its quality and responsiveness in clinical imaging and curation of Real-World Data based upon success in compiling one of the largest networks of imaging centers (comprised of hospitals, imaging centers and clinics) throughout the United States covering more than 15 million patients to date. On the global front, OneMedNet works with hospitals and life science companies around the world including in Ireland, United Kingdom, Ghana, Denmark and South Korea and growing. We base these claims on our understanding of our competition in the United States and globally. However, if we were to lose these relationships with our network of imaging centers or lose our customers or our competitors’ technology surpasses ours, our competitors could claim a greater market share domestically or abroad, which could reduce our growth and our profits, which could harm our business, financial position, results of operations and prospects.
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
As stated above, we have experienced net losses in each annual period since inception. We generated net losses of $33.8 million and $30.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $91.4 million. In their audit report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 included in this report, our auditors have expressed their concern as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate cashflows from operations and obtain financing. We intend to continue funding our operations through equity and debt financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements in the long term. There can be no assurance that the steps management is taking will be successful.

One significant customer represented 51% and 29% of our revenues for 2023 and 2022 respectively and is expected to continue to represent a significant portion of our forecasted revenue for 2024.
Change Healthcare represented 51% and 29% of our revenues in 2023 and 2022, respectively. Change Healthcare is expected to continue to represent a significant portion of our forecasted revenue for 2024. If we fail to maintain and grow our relationship with Change Healthcare, we could lose a significant portion of our revenue for 2023, which would materially adversely affect our results of operations and our business. If OneMedNet were to lose this significant customer, its revenue may significantly decline. In addition, revenue from this significant customer may vary from period to period depending on the timing of renewing existing agreements or entering into new agreements for additional OneMedNet products as well as other unforeseen risks and variables discussed in this Amended Form 10-K. The loss of this significant customer could adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition. You should not rely on our historical relationship with these companies as an indication of our future performance.
We may encounter difficulties in managing our attempted growth of our business, which could negatively impact our operations.
As we expand, market, sell and deliver our service offerings, we anticipate that we will need to increase our service development, sales and marketing and administrative headcount. Such an evolution may impact our strategic focus and our deployment and allocation of resources. Our ability to manage our operations and growth effectively depends upon the continual improvement of our procedures, reporting systems and operational, financial and management controls. We may not be able to implement administrative and operational improvements in an efficient or timely manner and may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls. If we do not meet these challenges, we may be unable to execute our business strategies and may be forced to expend more resources than anticipated addressing these issues.
We may acquire additional technology and complementary businesses in the future. Acquisitions involve many risks, any of which could materially harm our business, including the diversion of management’s attention from core business concerns, failure to effectively exploit acquired technologies, failure to successfully integrate the acquired business or realize expected synergies or the loss of key employees from either our business or the acquired businesses.
19 |
We may be unable to execute our business objectives and growth strategies successfully or sustain our growth and, as a result, this could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
The highly complex nature of our industry requires that we effectively execute and manage our business objectives and growth strategies, such as expanding our marketing and commercialization of our services in the U.S. and internationally, adding new customers, and increasing our service delivery capacity. However, we may not be able to execute these strategies as effectively as anticipated. Our ability to execute on these strategies depends on a number of factors, including, without limitation:
● | our ability to obtain adequate capital resources to execute our growth plans; | |
● | our ability to hire, train and retain skilled managers and personnel, including quality and production personnel, and marketing and commercial specialists; | |
● | our ability to protect our existing and new services by registering and defending our intellectual property rights; and | |
● | our ability to successfully add new customers. |
To the extent we are unable to execute our growth strategies in accordance with our expectations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and future results of operations.
The Real World Data and Real World Evidence business market continues to evolve and is highly competitive, and we may not be successful in competing in this industry or establishing and maintaining confidence in our long-term business prospects among current and future partners and customers.
The Real World Data and Real World Evidence business market in which we compete continues to evolve and is highly competitive. To date, we have focused our efforts on our expertise in clinical imaging innovation solutions that connect healthcare providers and patients and satisfy a crucial need for the life sciences. We offer direct access to clinical images and associated contextual patient records. OneMedNet proved the commercial and regulatory viability of iRWDTM, a promising emerging market, that exactly matches OneMedNet’s life science partners’ case selection protocol. OneMedNet has the immediate ability to quickly search and extensively curate multi-layer data from a federated group of healthcare facilities and to provide fast access to curated medical images that has proved the commercial and regulatory viability of imaging Real World Data and covers the complete value chain in imaging Real World Data, validated by an increasing federated network of providers. However, Real World Data and Real World Evidence has been increasingly adopted, and our current competitors have, and future competitors may have, greater resources than we do and may also be able to devote greater resources to the development of their current and future technologies. These competitors also may have greater access to customers and may be able to establish cooperative or strategic relationships amongst themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and competitive positioning.
Developments in improvements in Real World Data and Real World Evidence curation by competitors may materially adversely affect the sales, pricing and gross margins of our business. If a competing technology or process is developed that has superior operational or price performance, our business will be harmed. Similarly, if we fail to accurately predict and ensure that our Real World Data and Real World Evidence offering can address customers’ changing needs or emerging technological trends, or if our customers fail to achieve the benefits expected from our Real World Data and Real World Evidence offering, our business will be harmed.
We must continue to commit resources to develop our Real World Data and Real World Evidence technology in order to establish a competitive position, and these commitments will be made without knowing whether such investments will result in products potential customers will accept. There is no assurance we will successfully identify new customer requirements, develop and bring our Real World Data and Real World Evidence to market on a timely basis, or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our Real World Data and Real World Evidence obsolete or noncompetitive, any of which would adversely affect our business and operating results.
20 |
If we are unable to attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel, our ability to compete could be harmed.
We depend on the talents and continued efforts of our senior management and key employees. The loss of members of our management or key employees may disrupt our business and harm our results of operations. Further, our ability to manage further expansion will require us to continue to attract, motivate and retain additional qualified personnel. Competition for this type of personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting, integrating and retaining the personnel required to grow and operate our business effectively. There can be no assurance that our current management team or any new members of our management team will be able to successfully execute our business and operating strategies.
Our inability to expand our development, use and adoption of artificial intelligence, or issues presented in our development, use and adoption of artificial intelligence, could harm our reputation, expose us to liability and cause us to lose customers.
We currently incorporate certain AI capabilities into our solutions, and we endeavor to continue researching and developing AI capabilities within our solutions. As with many innovative and disruptive technologies, AI presents risks, challenges, and unintended consequences, many of which cannot be fully appreciated currently. These risks, challenges and unintended consequences could negatively affect further adoption of AI in our solutions, impacting our ability to compete effectively within the regulatory-grade imaging RWD industry. AI algorithms and the training methodologies for such algorithms may contain flaws, which could result in ineffective, inadequate, or inaccurate AI capabilities, or could impair customer or partner acceptance of our solutions leveraging such AI capabilities. Should we develop and incorporate flawed AI capabilities within our solutions, such flaws would negatively impact our brand and reputation, increase costs to develop and implement new AI capabilities, or lead to a decline in sales revenue. Such impacts would harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Because AI is an emerging technology with a developing legal and regulatory landscape both in the United States and globally, incorporating AI into our solutions and internal business processes could result in an increased risk of litigation and regulatory non-compliance due to changes in laws or regulations, including, but not limited to, intellectual property, privacy, or data protection. Our obligations to comply with current and future legal and regulatory obligations in the United States and worldwide could require us to incur significant costs to achieve compliance, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations, or may hinder our ability to incorporate AI capabilities into our solutions or distribute our solutions in certain markets.
As we continue to develop ways to leverage AI capabilities within our internal business operations to create economic efficiencies for our business, the use of AI capabilities in our internal business operations could present risks and challenges. While we strive to use AI in an ethical and compliant manner, we may be unsuccessful in identifying and/or resolving ethical or legal issues before they arise, which could increase our legal and regulatory risks, including, but not limited to, data privacy and security, leading to the improper transmission of proprietary or sensitive information, whether or not intentional. We could fail to implement and maintain the AI tools we develop, may incur significant research and development costs without achieving the anticipated economic efficiencies we desire, and/or may fail to establish adequate AI governance processes safeguards, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

A material breach in security relating to the Company’s information systems and regulation related to such breaches, cyber-attacks, or other disruptions could adversely affect the Company, expose us to liability and affect our business and reputation.
Information security risks have generally increased in recent years, in part because of the proliferation of new technologies and the use of the Internet, and the increased sophistication and activity of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, activists, cybercriminals and other external parties, some of which may be linked to terrorist organizations or hostile foreign governments. Cybersecurity attacks are becoming more sophisticated and include malicious software, ransomware, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data and other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in critical systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information and corruption of data, substantially damaging the Company’s reputation. Any person who circumvents the security measures could steal proprietary or confidential information or cause interruptions in the Company’s operations.
We are increasingly dependent on our information technology systems and infrastructure for our business. We, our collaborators and our service providers collect, store, and transmit sensitive information including intellectual property, proprietary business information, and personal information in connection with our business operations. The secure maintenance of this information is critical to our operations and business strategy. Some of this information could be an attractive target of criminal attack by third parties with a wide range of motives and expertise, including organized criminal groups, “hacktivists,” disgruntled current or former employees, nation-state and nation-state supported actors, and others. Cyber-attacks are of ever-increasing levels of sophistication, and despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to such attacks or may be breached, including due to employee error or malfeasance.
We have implemented information security measures to protect our systems, proprietary information, and sensitive data against the risk of inappropriate and unauthorized external use and disclosure and other types of compromise. However, despite these measures, and due to the ever-changing information cyber-threat landscape, we cannot guarantee that these measures will be adequate to detect, prevent or mitigate security breaches and other incidents and we may be subject to data breaches through cyber-attacks, malicious code (such as viruses and worms), phishing attacks, social engineering schemes, and insider theft or misuse. Any such breach could compromise our networks, and the information stored there could be accessed, modified, destroyed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. If our systems become compromised, we may not promptly discover the intrusion.
Any security breach or other incident, whether real or perceived, could cause us to suffer reputational damage. Such incidents could result in costs to respond to, investigate and remedy such incidents, notification obligations to affected individuals, government agencies, credit reporting agencies and other third parties, legal claims or proceedings, and liability under our contracts with other parties and federal and state laws that protect the privacy and security of personal information. The Company’s failure to prevent security breaches, or well-publicized security breaches affecting the Internet in general, could significantly harm the Company’s reputation and business and financial results.
If we are unable to adequately protect or expand our intellectual property related to our current or future products, our business prospects could be harmed.
Our success, competitive position and future revenues will depend in part on our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products, methods, processes and other technologies, to preserve our trade secrets, to prevent third parties from infringing on our proprietary rights and to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties.
We will be able to protect our proprietary intellectual property rights from unauthorized use by third parties only to the extent that our proprietary rights are effectively maintained as trade secrets. Our industry involves complex legal and factual questions, and, therefore, we cannot predict with certainty whether we will be able to ultimately enforce our proprietary intellectual property rights. Therefore, any intellectual property rights that may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, and may not provide us with the protection against competitors that we anticipate. The degree of future protection for our proprietary intellectual property rights is uncertain because legal means afford only limited protection and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep our competitive advantage.
22 |
If we fail to comply with the extensive legal and regulatory requirements affecting the health care industry, we could face increased costs, penalties and a loss of business.
Our activities, and the activities of our collaborators, partners and third-party providers, are subject to extensive government regulation and oversight both in the United States and in foreign jurisdictions. The FDA and comparable agencies in other jurisdictions directly regulate many of our most critical business activities, including product manufacturing, advertising and promotion, product distribution, adverse event reporting and product risk management. States increasingly have been placing greater restrictions on the marketing practices of healthcare companies and have instituted pricing disclosure and other requirements for companies in the health sciences industry. In addition, health sciences companies have been the target of lawsuits and investigations alleging violations of government regulations, including claims asserting submission of incorrect pricing information, improper promotion of products, payments intended to influence the referral of federal or state healthcare business, submission of false claims for government reimbursement, antitrust violations, violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act and similar anti-bribery or anti-corruption laws, or violations related to environmental matters. There is also enhanced scrutiny of company-sponsored patient assistance programs, including insurance premium and co-pay assistance programs and donations to third-party charities that provide such assistance. Violations of governmental regulation by us, our customers, and our partners may be punishable by criminal and civil sanctions, including damages, fines and penalties and exclusion from participation in government programs. Actions taken by federal or local governments, legislative bodies and enforcement agencies with respect to these legal and regulatory compliance matters could also result in reduced demand for our products. We cannot ensure that our compliance controls, policies, and procedures will in every instance protect us from acts committed by our employees, collaborators, partners or third-party providers that would violate the laws or regulations of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Whether or not we have complied with the law, an investigation into alleged unlawful conduct could increase our expenses, damage our reputation, divert management time and attention and adversely affect our business, and any settlement of these proceedings could result in significant payments by us. Risks relating to compliance with laws and regulations may be heightened as we continue to expand our global operations, which may result in additional regulatory burdens and obligations.
Our collection, use, and disclosure of personal information is subject to U.S. state and federal privacy and security regulations, and our failure to comply with those regulations or to adequately secure the information we hold could result in significant liability or reputational harm.
The privacy and security of personal information stored, maintained, received, or transmitted, including electronically, is a major issue in the U.S. and abroad. Numerous federal and state laws and regulations, including state privacy, data security and breach notification laws, federal and state consumer protection and employment laws, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”), as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009, and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, govern the collection, dissemination, use, and confidentiality of personal information, including genetic, biometric, and health information. These laws and regulations are increasing in complexity and number, may change frequently, and sometimes conflict. Penalties for violations of these laws vary but can be severe.
While we strive to comply with all applicable privacy and security laws and regulations, including our own posted privacy policies, these laws and regulations continue to evolve, and any failure or perceived failure to comply may result in proceedings or actions against us by government entities or others or could cause us to lose customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business. Recently, there has been an increase in public awareness of privacy issues in the wake of revelations about the data collection activities of various government agencies and in the number of private privacy-related lawsuits filed against companies. Concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, retention, disclosure, or security of personal information or other privacy-related matters, even if unfounded and even if we are in compliance with applicable laws, could damage our reputation and harm our business.
23 |
Our operations could be damaged or adversely affected as a result of natural disasters and other catastrophic events.
Our operations could be adversely affected by events outside of our control, such as natural disasters, wars, health epidemics such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and other calamities. We cannot assure you that any backup systems will be adequate to protect us from the effects of fire, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, war, riots, terrorist attacks or similar events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect our ability to provide services.
Our ability to utilize our net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.
In general, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change” is subject to limitations on its ability to use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) to offset future taxable income. An “ownership change” is generally defined as a greater than 50 percentage point change (by value) in its equity ownership by certain stockholders over a three-year period. If we have experienced an ownership change at any time since our incorporation, we may already be subject to limitations on our ability to utilize our existing NOLs and other tax attributes to offset taxable income or tax liability. In addition, the Business Combination and future changes in our stock ownership, which may be outside of our control, may trigger an ownership change. Similar provisions of state tax law may also apply to limit our use of accumulated state tax attributes. As a result, even if we earn net taxable income in the future, our ability to use these or our pre-change NOL carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset such taxable income or tax liability may be subject to limitations, which could potentially result in increased future income tax liability to us. The Company has not yet conducted a formal study of whether, or to what extent, past changes in control of the Company impacts its ability to utilize NOL carryforwards because such NOL carryforwards cannot be utilized until the Company achieves profitability.
There is also a risk that changes in law or regulatory changes made in response to the need for some jurisdictions to raise additional revenue to help counter the fiscal impact from unforeseen reasons, including suspensions on the use of net operating losses or tax credits, possibly with retroactive effect, may result in our existing net operating losses or tax credits expiring or otherwise being unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities.
We are subject to many hazards and operational risks that can disrupt our business, some of which may not be insured or fully covered by insurance.
Our operations are subject to many hazards and operational risks inherent to our business, including: (a) general business risks; (b) warranty liability; and (c) damage to third parties (e.g., our vendors), our infrastructure or properties caused by fires, floods and other natural disasters, power losses, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks, riots, cyberattacks, public health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic (and other future pandemics or epidemics), human errors and similar events. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, or similar pandemics, we have and may in the future experience disruptions that could severely impact our business and the business of our customers.
Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover our liabilities related to such hazards or operational risks. For example, we do not currently maintain cybersecurity insurance and our insurance providers may take the position that our coverage, under present circumstances, does not extend to business interruptions. In addition, we may not be able to maintain adequate insurance in the future at rates we consider reasonable and commercially justifiable, and insurance may not continue to be available on terms as favorable as our current arrangements. The occurrence of a significant uninsured claim or a claim in excess of the insurance coverage limits maintained by us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
Our Common Stock may be subject to extreme volatility.
The trading price of our Common Stock may be subject to extreme volatility. We cannot predict the magnitude of future fluctuations in the trading price of our Common Stock. The trading price of our Common Stock may be affected by a number of factors, including events described in this section entitled, “Risk Factors” and in our other periodic reports filed with the SEC from time to time, as well as our operating results, financial condition and other events or factors. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in our securities. Factors affecting the trading price of our securities may include:
24 |
● | announcements by us or our competitors regarding technical developments and levels of performance achieved by our or their Real World Data and Real World Evidence offering; | |
● | announcements by us regarding developments in our relationship with existing and future key customers; | |
● | our ability to bring our products and technologies to market on a timely basis, or at all; | |
● | our operating results or development efforts failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period; | |
● | Actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us; | |
● | changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results or the Real World Data and Real World Evidence industry; | |
● | success of competitors’ actual or perceived development efforts; | |
● | changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning the Company or the Real World Data and Real World Evidence industry in general; | |
● | operating and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to the Company; | |
● | disputes or other developments related to proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain intellectual property protection for our technologies; | |
● | changes in laws and regulations affecting our business; | |
● | our ability to meet compliance requirements; | |
● | commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving the Company; | |
● | changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt; | |
● | the volume of shares of Common Stock available for public sale; | |
● | the level of demand for our Common Stock, including the amount of short interest in our Common Stock; | |
● | any major change in our Board of Directors or management; | |
● | sales of substantial amounts of shares of our Common Stock by our directors, executive officers or significant stockholders or the perception that such sales could occur; | |
● | the expiration of contractual lock-up agreements with our executive officers, directors and certain stockholders, which we have entered into and may enter into in the future from time to time; and | |
● | general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, fuel prices, international currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism. |
Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. The stock market in general, and the Nasdaq in particular, have experienced price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of our securities, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive to be similar to the Company could depress our share price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of our securities also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.
Following certain periods of volatility in the market price of our securities, we may become subject to securities litigation. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, additional litigation following periods of volatility. This type of litigation may result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

We are currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. If we are unable to maintain listing of our securities on Nasdaq or any stock exchange, our stock price could be adversely affected and the liquidity of our stock and our ability to obtain financing could be impaired and it may be more difficult for our stockholders to sell their securities.
Although our Common Stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not be able to continue to meet the exchange’s minimum listing requirements or those of any other national exchange. If we are unable to maintain listing on Nasdaq or if a liquid market for our Common Stock does not develop or is sustained, our Common Stock may remain thinly traded.
On February 7, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “MVLS Nasdaq Notice”) from Nasdaq indicating that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the market value of the Company’s listed securities (“MVLS”) did not maintain a minimum market value of $50,000,000 (the “Minimum MVLS Requirement”) as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 5, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement. Compliance could have been achieved if the Company’s MVLS closed at $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period, in which case Nasdaq would notify the Company of its compliance and the matter would be closed.
If the Company did not regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement by August 5, 2024, Nasdaq would have provided written notification to the Company that its Common Stock was subject to delisting. At that time, the Company could have appealed the relevant delisting determination to a hearings panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Company sought to apply for a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, and on August 15, 2024, the Company received approval from Nasdaq to list the Common Stock and Public Warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Common Stock and Public Warrants were transferred from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on August 19, 2024, and continue to trade under the symbols “ONMD” and “ONMDW,” respectively.
On March 26, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “Bid Price Nasdaq Notice”) from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Common Stock did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share requirement (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until September 23, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Compliance could have been achieved if the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock was at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. On June 10, 2024, the Nasdaq staff determined that for the prior 11 consecutive business days, from May 23, 2024, to June 7, 2024, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock had been at $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company regained compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), and this matter was closed.
On June 20, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice”), which indicated that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10 Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “Q1 2024 Form 10-Q”) by the applicable due date, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Periodic Report Rule”), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC. The Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice stated that the Company had 60 calendar days to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule. If Nasdaq accepted the Company’s plan to regain compliance, then Nasdaq could have granted the Company up to 180 calendar days from the prescribed due date of the Form 10-Q to regain compliance.
On September 9, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Q2 2024 Form 10 Q Nasdaq Notice”), which indicated that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 (together with the Q1 2024 Form 10-Q, the “Delinquent Filings”) by the applicable due date, the Company was not in compliance with the Periodic Report Rule, which requires Nasdaq listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.
On September 10, 2024, the Company received a notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Nasdaq Compliance Plan Notice”), which responded to the Company’s plan to regain compliance regarding its delinquent Q1 2024 Form 10 Q, granting the Company an exception until October 31, 2024 to file the Delinquent Filings with the SEC and regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule by October 31, 2024, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s determination to a hearings panel.
26 |
On October 8, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice”) indicating that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s MVLS was below the minimum of $35 million required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The staff at Nasdaq also noted in the Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(3), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum of $500,000 of net income from continuing operations. In accordance with Nasdaq listing rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 7, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement. Compliance may be achieved if the Company’s MVLS closes at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period, in which case Nasdaq will notify the Company of its compliance and the matter will be closed, If the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the 180-day compliance period, Nasdaq staff will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
On October 16, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice,” and together with the MVLS Nasdaq Notice, the Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice, the Q2 2024 Form 10 Q Nasdaq Notice, the Nasdaq Compliance Plan Notice, and the Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice, the “Nasdaq Notices”) notifying the Company that, for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Common Stock did not meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 14, 2025, to regain compliance. The Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice notes that to regain compliance, the Common Stock must maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the 180-day compliance period, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance. To qualify for additional time, the Company must (i) meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of its publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement and (ii) provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, the Company may be granted an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will be unable to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is not otherwise eligible for the additional cure period, Nasdaq will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
The Nasdaq Notices received have no immediate effect on the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market or the trading of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements. The Company is presently evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining the listing of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The listing rules of Nasdaq require listing issuers to comply with certain standards in order to remain listed on its exchange. If, for any reason, we should fail to maintain compliance with these listing standards and Nasdaq should delist our securities from trading on its exchange and we are unable to obtain listing on another national securities exchange, a reduction in some or all of the following may occur, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our stockholders:
27 |
● | the liquidity of our Common Stock; |
● | the market price of our Common Stock; |
● | our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations; |
● | the number of institutional and general investors that will consider investing in our Common Stock; |
● | the number of investors in general that will consider investing in our Common Stock; |
● | the number of market makers in our Common Stock; |
● | the availability of information concerning the trading prices and volume of our Common Stock; and |
● | the number of broker-dealers willing to execute trades in shares of our Common Stock. |
Our principal stockholders will continue to have significant influence over the election of our Board of Directors and approval of any significant corporate actions, including any sale of the Company.
Our founders, executive officers, directors, and other principal stockholders, in the aggregate, beneficially own a majority of our outstanding stock. These stockholders currently have, and likely will continue to have, significant influence with respect to the election of our Board of Directors and approval or disapproval of all significant corporate actions. The concentrated voting power of these stockholders could have the effect of delaying or preventing an acquisition of the Company or another significant corporate transaction.
We could be subject to securities class action litigation.
In the past, securities class action litigation has often been brought against companies following a decline in the market price of their securities. In 2020, 22% of securities class action litigation filings were against defendants in the health technology and services sector, which accounted for 22% of new filings. If we face such litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Common Stock and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our Common Stock will depend in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. If research analysts do not establish and maintain adequate research coverage or if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our Common Stock or publishes inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, the market price for our Common Stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our Company or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which, in turn, could cause the market price or trading volume for our Common Stock to decline.
28 |
We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future, and you must rely on price appreciation of your shares of Common Stock for return on your investment.
We have paid no cash dividends on any class of our stock to date, and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the near term. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their shares after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our shares. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our Board of Directors deems relevant.
Future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, either by us or by our existing stockholders, or the possibility that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
Future sales in the public market of shares of our Common Stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of Common Stock, shares held by our existing stockholders or shares issued upon exercise of our outstanding stock options or warrants, or the perception by the market that these sales could occur, could lower the market price of our Common Stock or make it difficult for us to raise additional capital.
We are an “emerging growth company,” and the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, among other things, exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of our prior second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.
In addition, under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We may elect not to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, may be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. We cannot predict if investors will find our Common Stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our Common Stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our share price may be more volatile.
29 |
Anti-takeover provisions contained in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws as well as provisions of Delaware law could impair a takeover attempt.
Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions which could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by our Board of Directors. Our corporate governance documents include provisions:
● | authorizing “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend, and other rights superior to our Common Stock; |
● | limiting the liability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers; |
● | limiting the ability of our stockholders to call and bring business before special meetings; |
● | requiring advance notice of stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at meetings of our stockholders and for nominations of candidates for election to our Board of Directors; |
● | controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of Board of Directors and stockholder meetings; and |
● | providing our Board of Directors with the express power to postpone previously scheduled annual meetings and to cancel previously scheduled special meetings. |
These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management. As a Delaware corporation, we are also subject to provisions of Delaware law, including Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which prevents some stockholders holding more than 15% of our outstanding Common Stock from engaging in certain business combinations without approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding Common Stock.
Any provision of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or deterring a change in control could limit the opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Common Stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for our Common Stock.
Risks Related to Being a Public Company
Our management has limited experience in operating a public company.
Our executive officers have limited experience in the management of a publicly traded company. Our management team may not successfully or effectively manage the significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under federal securities laws to which we are now subject now that we are a public company. Their limited experience in dealing with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies could be a significant disadvantage in that it is likely that an increasing amount of their time may be devoted to these activities which will result in less time being devoted to the management and growth of our Company. We may not have adequate personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience, and training in the accounting policies, practices or internal controls over financial reporting required of public companies in the United States. The development and implementation of the standards and controls necessary for us to achieve the level of accounting standards required of a public company in the United States may require costs greater than expected. It is possible that we will be required to expand our employee base and hire additional employees to support our operations as a public company, which will increase our operating costs in future periods.
30 |
We have incurred and will continue to incur significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We currently face and will continue to face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that Legacy ONMD did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the securities exchanges, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements has increased and will continue to increase costs and make certain activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements will require us to carry out activities we have not done previously. For example, we have created new Board of Directors committees and adopted new internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements have been and will continue to be incurred. Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identified (for example, the auditors identified a material weakness and significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting), we could incur additional costs rectifying those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect our reputation or investor perceptions of it. It may also be more expensive to obtain director and officer liability insurance. Risks associated with our status as a public company may make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations has increased and will continue to increase legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. These increased costs have required and will continue to require us to divert a significant amount of money that could otherwise be used to expand the business and achieve strategic objectives. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, and if our remediation of these material weaknesses is not effective, or if we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls over financial reporting in the future, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or operating results, which may adversely affect our business.
In October 2024, we identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting related to user access/segregation of duties, lack of a formalized control environment and oversight of controls over financial reporting, error in accounting for non-routine transactions, and lack of record keeping. Upon re-evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, management has determined that, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. We cannot assure you that we will adequately remediate the material weaknesses or that additional material weaknesses in our internal controls will not be identified in the future. Any failure to maintain or implement required new or improved controls, or any difficulties we encounter in their implementation, could result in additional material weaknesses, or could result in material misstatements in our financial statements. Such misstatements have resulted in the restatement of the financial statements included in this Amended Form 10-K, and misstatements could result in future restatements of our financial statements, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations in addition to stock exchange listing requirements, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, result in a decline in our stock price, and cause us to be subject to litigation or regulatory enforcement actions.
We are in the process of remediating the identified material weaknesses in our internal controls, but we are unable at this time to estimate when the remediation efforts will be completed. If we fail to remediate these material weaknesses, there will continue to be an increased risk that our future financial statements could contain errors that will be undetected. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date, or any measures we may take in the future, will be sufficient to avoid potential future material weaknesses. The potential consequences of any material weakness could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Further and continued determinations that there are material weaknesses in the effectiveness of our internal controls could impact the operations of our business, including our ability to obtain financing, impact the cost of any financing we obtain or require additional expenditures of resources to comply with applicable requirements.
31 |
Our business model is capital-intensive, and we may not be able to raise additional capital on attractive terms, if at all, and any additional capital we do raise through issuances of equity securities could be dilutive to stockholders. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed, our operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
We can be expected to continue to sustain substantial operating expenses without generating sufficient revenues to cover expenditures. Over time, we expect that we will need to raise additional funds, including through the issuance of equity, equity-related or debt securities or through obtaining credit from financial institutions to fund, together with our principal sources of liquidity, ongoing costs, any significant unplanned or accelerated expenses, and new strategic investments. We cannot be certain that additional capital will be available on attractive terms, if at all, when needed, which could be dilutive to stockholders, and our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
Risks Related to Our Warrants
We may redeem unexpired Warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to Warrant holders.
Our Public Warrants (as defined below) are currently exercisable for one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. We have the ability to redeem outstanding Warrants at any time prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to Warrant holders and provided certain other conditions are met. If and when the Warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption rights even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. As a result, we may redeem the Warrants, as set forth above even if the holders are otherwise unable to exercise the Warrants.
Redemption of the outstanding Warrants could force Warrant holders (i) to exercise their Warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for them to do so, (ii) to sell their Warrants at the then-current market price when they might otherwise wish to hold their Warrants or (iii) to accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding Warrants are called for redemption, we expect would be substantially less than the market value of their Warrants. None of the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 1C. Cybersecurity
OneMedNet manages cybersecurity and data protection through a continuously evolving framework, as described in further detail below. The framework allows us to identify, assess and mitigate the risks we face, and assists us in establishing policies and safeguards to protect our systems and the information of those we serve. Our cybersecurity program is managed by James Wang, our Chief Technology Officer. James holds a degree in computer science from the University of Hawaii at Manoa and has 19 years of development experience focused on architecture and security. In his career, he has led initiatives for companies to attain SOC2 compliance and PCI compliance for their product solutions. The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has oversight of our cybersecurity program and is responsible for reviewing and assessing the Company’s cybersecurity and data protection policies, procedures and resource commitment, including key risk areas and mitigation strategies. As part of this process, the Audit Committee receives regular updates from the Chief Technology Officer on critical issues related to our information security risks, cybersecurity strategy, supplier risk and business continuity capabilities. The Company’s framework includes an incident management and response program that continuously monitors the Company’s information systems for vulnerabilities, threats and incidents; manages and takes action to contain incidents that occur; remediates vulnerabilities; and communicates the details of threats and incidents to management, including the Director Product Management, Head of Data, as deemed necessary or appropriate. Pursuant to the Company’s incident response plan, any incidents are to be reported by the Chief Technology Officer to the Audit Committee, appropriate government agencies and other authorities, as deemed necessary or appropriate, considering the actual or potential impact, significance and scope. The Company is not aware of any previous cybersecurity incidents or threats that are reasonably likely to materially affect its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

We employ an array of data security technologies, processes, and methods across our infrastructure to protect systems and sensitive information from unauthorized access. OneMedNet maintains comprehensive identity and access management practices (e.g., roles and access privileges for each user; multi-factor authentication, privileged user accounts, single sign-on, user lifecycle management) and employs a variety of security information and event management tools. We developed, maintained and utilized a global integrated information security framework to guide our practices, based on relevant industry frameworks and laws, including, but not limited to NIST, GxP, HITRUST, the ISO 27000 family, COBIT, GDPR, and HIPAA.
The framework consists of policies, standards, procedures, work instructions and documentation. Information is classified into four categories to help individuals apply the right level of controls and safeguards to information, applications and systems. Our cybersecurity program focuses on all areas of our business, including cloud-based environments, data centers, devices used by employees and contractors, facilities, networks, applications, vendors, disaster recovery / business continuity and controls and safeguards enabled through business processes and tools. We continuously monitor for threats and unauthorized access.
We draw on the knowledge and insight of external cybersecurity experts and vendors, and our Chief Technology Officer’s experience in building solutions that are secure and compliant with our information security framework. OneMedNet leverages an array of security services and tools to secure OneMedNet information infrastructure and protect systems and information from unauthorized access. OneMedNet’s products and solutions, including 3rd party software and services such as hosted cloud based platforms are monitored by a healthcare cloud, security and compliance organization that provides a real-time dashboard to monitor for potential threats and vulnerabilities. Non-technical safeguards also play an important role in our cybersecurity program. We provide various training programs and tools to employees so they can avoid risky practices and help us promptly identify potential or actual issues. We also have global incident response procedures, global service tools to log incidents and issues for investigation, and an ethics line to report concerns and follow up on matters already reported. The Compliance team, led by our Chief Technology Officer, develops and implements our strategy, as well as monitors systems and devices for risks and threats.
Item 2. Properties
Our corporate headquarters in Eden Prairie, Minnesota is leased on a month-to-month basis. We have a remote work policy that allows for all employees to be remote on an ongoing basis. As a result, our employees are in permanent remote status and are not required to report to an office for work. We believe our current office space is adequate for our current operations and our anticipated future needs.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We may be subject from time to time to various claims, lawsuits and other legal and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits and other proceedings may involve highly complex issues that are subject to substantial uncertainties, and could result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions or relief. We are not presently party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of management, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows.
We intend to recognize provisions for claims or pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Due to the inherent uncertain nature of litigation, the ultimate outcome or actual cost of settlement may materially vary from estimates.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.

Holders of our Common Stock
As of November 5, 2024, there were approximately 38 holders of record of our Common Stock. Certain shares of our Common Stock are held in “street” name and, accordingly, the number of beneficial owners of such shares is not known or included in the foregoing number. The number of holders of record also does not include beneficial owners of shares that are held in trust by other entities.
Dividend Policy
We have never paid or declared any cash dividends on our Common Stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Performance Graph
We are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and therefore are not required to provide the information required by paragraph (e) of Item 201 of Regulation S-K.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On June 28, 2023, the Company executed the PIPE SPA in connection with a PIPE financing in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,595,744.70 and a purchase price of $1.5 million. Pursuant to the PIPE SPA, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the PIPE Investors the PIPE Notes, which shall be convertible into shares of Common Stock at the PIPE Investors’ election at the conversion price (rounded to the nearest 1/100th of one cent) which shall be computed as the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, and (ii) 92.5% of the lowest VWAP for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the conversion date, subject to the floor price of $1.14 (representing 20% of the closing price of the Common Stock on the last trading day before the closing of the Business Combination), or the alternative conversion ratio of the greater of the floor price and the lesser of 80% of the VWAP of the common stock as of the trading day and 80% of the price computed as the quotient of the sum of the VWAP of the Common Stock for each of the three trading days with the lowest VWAP of the Common Stock during the fifteen consecutive trading day period ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the delivery or deemed delivery of the applicable conversion notice, divided by three. All such determinations are to be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, reclassification or similar transaction that proportionately decreases or increases the Common Stock. The PIPE Notes mature on the first anniversary of the issuance date, or November 7, 2024.
Purchases of Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers
There were no purchases of equity securities by the issuer or affiliated purchasers, as defined in Rule 10b-18(a)(3) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Item 6. [Reserved]
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that appear elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. See “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of certain risks associated with our business. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. The use of words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. From time to time, we also may provide forward-looking statements in other materials we release to the public.
Company Overview
Founded in 2015, Legacy ONMD provides innovative solutions that unlock the significant value contained within the clinical image archives of healthcare providers. Employing our OneMedNet iRWD™ solution, which securely de-identifies, searches, and curates a data archive locally, bringing a wealth of internal and third-party research opportunities to providers. By leveraging our extensive federated provider network, together with our technology and in-house clinical expertise, OneMedNet successfully meets the most rigorous Real World Data life science requirements.
Business Combination
On November 7, 2023, we held the Closing of the Business Combination whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy ONMD, with Legacy ONMD continuing as the surviving entity, which resulted in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Legacy ONMD being exchanged for shares of the Company’s Common Stock upon the terms set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger and other transactions that closed on November 7, 2023, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, led to Data Knights changing its name to “OneMedNet Corporation” and the business of the Company became the business of Legacy ONMD.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the total consideration for the Business Combination and related transactions (the “Merger Consideration”) was approximately $200 million. In connection with the Special Meeting, certain public holders (the “Redeeming Stockholders”) holding 1,600,741 shares of Common Stock exercised their right to redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee (“Continental”) in the trust account established in connection with Data Knights’ initial public offering (the “Trust Account”). Effective November 7, 2023, Data Knights’ units ceased trading, and effective November 8, 2023, the Common Stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “ONMD” and the Public Warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “ONMDW.”
As a result of the Merger and the Business Combination, holders of Data Knights common stock automatically received common stock of OneMedNet, and holders of Data Knights warrants automatically received warrants of OneMedNet with substantively identical terms. At the Closing of the Business Combination, all shares of Data Knights owned by the Sponsor (consisting of shares of Common Stock and shares of Class B common stock, which we refer to as the founder shares), automatically converted into an equal number of shares of OneMedNet’s Common Stock, and the Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor automatically converted into warrants to purchase one share of OneMedNet Common Stock with substantively identical terms.

Key Components of Consolidated Statements of Operations
Revenue
The Company generates revenue from two streams: (1) iRWD, which provides regulatory grade imaging and clinical data in the pharmaceutical, device manufacturing, contract research organizations, and AI markets and (2) BEAM, which is a medical imaging exchange platform between hospital/healthcare systems, imaging centers, physicians and patients. iRWD is sold on a fixed fee basis based on the number of data units and the cost per data unit committed to in the customer contract. Revenue is recognized when the data is delivered to the customer. BEAM revenue is subscription-based revenue that is recognized ratably over the subscription period committed to by the customer. The Company invoices its BEAM customers quarterly or annually in advance with the customer contracts automatically renewing unless the customer issues a cancellation notice.
The Company excludes from revenue taxes collected from a customer that are assessed by a governmental authority and imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction. The transaction price for the products is the invoiced amount. Advanced billings from contracts are deferred and recognized as revenue when earned. Deferred revenue consists of payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Such amounts are generally recognized as revenue over the contractual period. The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable is recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Payment terms on invoiced amounts typically range from zero to 90 days, with typical terms of 30 days.
Cost of Revenue
Our cost of revenue is composed of our distinct performance obligations of hosting, labor, and data cost.
General and Administrative
General and administrative functions include finance, legal, human resources, and information technology support. These functions include costs for items such as salaries and benefits and other personnel-related costs, maintenance and supplies, professional fees for external legal, accounting, and other consulting services, and depreciation expense.
Operations
Operations consists primarily of labor cost for our operations team who provides services to our customers.
Research and Development
Costs incurred in the research and development of our products are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs include personnel, contracted services, materials, and indirect costs involved in the design and development of new products and services, as well as hosting expense.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales and marketing costs consist of labor and tradeshow costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists of interest incurred on shareholder loans.
36 |
Other (Income) Expenses, Net
Other (income) expenses, net, primarily includes the changes in fair value of convertible debt and change in fair value of PIPE Notes for which we have elected the fair value option of accounting. Convertible notes payable, which include convertible promissory notes and PIPE Notes issued to related parties, including accrued interest and contingently issuable warrants, contain embedded derivatives, including settlement of the contingent conversion features, which require bifurcation and separate accounting. Accordingly, we have elected to measure the entire contingently convertible debt instruments, including accrued interest, at fair value. These debt instruments were initially recorded at fair value as liabilities and are subsequently re-measured at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet at the end of each reporting period and at settlement, as applicable. Other income or expenses, net, also includes changes in fair value of loan extensions, deferred underwriting fees and warrants which are treated as liability instruments measured at fair value for accounting purposes, initially recorded at fair value and subsequently re-measured to fair value on our consolidated balance sheets at the end of each reporting period. The changes in the fair value of these debt and liability instruments are recorded in changes in fair value, included as a component of other (income) expenses, net, in the consolidated statements of operations.
At the Closing of the Business Combination, convertible promissory notes were converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the Closing and were no longer outstanding as of the Closing Date.
Other (income) expenses, net, also includes foreign exchange and tax expenses related to the Company’s operations and revenue outside of the United States.

Total | $ | 1,021 | $ | 1,153 | $ | (132 | ) | -11 | % |
Our revenue is comprised of sales made from our subscription revenue (BEAM) and from our web imaging (RWD). For the year ended December 31, 2023, overall revenue was down by 11%. The primary driver for the subscription revenue increase was delivery of revenue to a significant customer. The primary driver for the decrease in web imaging revenue was revenue deliveries pushed to the first quarter of 2024.

2023 | 2022 | |||||||
Cost of revenue | 1,150 | 1,513 | ||||||
% of revenue | 113 | % | 131 | % |
In 2023 we were able to reduce our cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue by 18%. In the year ended 2023 our software cost, iRWD consultants and iRWD Data cost each decreased by $0.2 million ($0.6 million total). The decrease in cost of revenue was partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in payroll expenses.
General and Administrative
Our general and administrative expense decreased $1.3 million, or 26%, to $3.5 million for 2023 from $4.8 million for 2022. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in stock compensation expense of $0.2 million, board of director warrant expense of $1.2 million, recruiting fees of $0.2 million and bad debt expense of $0.2 million. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was partially offset by $0.3 million in additional employees’ salaries.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales & marketing expense increased $0.2 million, or 16%, to $1.1 million for 2023 from $1.0 million for 2022. The increase is due to the addition of an employee and consultant in 2023.
Research and development
Our research and development expense increased $0.5 million, or 30%, to $2.1 million for 2023 from $1.6 million for 2022. The increase is primarily due to the additional cost in salaries for curators, consultants and increased hosting costs, which increased by $0.4 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The increase is partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in stock compensation expense.
Income tax provision
For the year ended 2023, the Company recorded a tax provision of $18 thousand due to the earnings of its Canadian subsidiary. As a result of its U.S. taxable loss, no U.S. federal or state tax provision was recorded.
Interest Expense
The Company incurred interest expense on loans made from related parties (Management and Directors). Interest expense for the year ended 2023 was immaterial.
38 |
Change in Fair Value of Warrants
The change in fair value of Warrants was due to the Closing of the Business Combination and the resulting fluctuations in the market price of shares of Common Stock.
Change in Fair Value of PIPE Notes
The change in fair value of PIPE Notes was due to the resulting fluctuations in the market price of shares of Common Stock.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Debt
The change in fair value of convertible debt was due to the Closing of the Business Combination and the resulting fluctuations of the market price of shares of Common Stock.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
In addition to providing financial measurements based on GAAP, we provide an additional financial metric that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP (a “non-GAAP financial measure”). We use this non-GAAP financial measure, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes, to measure executive compensation, and to evaluate our financial performance. This non-GAAP financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA, as discussed below.
We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure reflects our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in the business, as it facilitates comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies. We also believe that this non-GAAP financial measure enables investors to evaluate our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as we do. This non-GAAP financial measure may exclude expenses and gains that may be unusual in nature, infrequent, or not reflective of our ongoing operating results.
This non-GAAP financial measure should not be viewed as a substitute for a GAAP financial measure and may be different from a similarly titled non-GAAP financial measure used by other companies. Furthermore, there are limitations inherent in the non-GAAP financial measure because it excludes charges and credits that are required to be included in a GAAP presentation. Accordingly, the non-GAAP financial measure does not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial measures and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. GAAP net loss is the closest comparable GAAP measure used.
39 |
We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of our business and a good measure of our historical operating trends. Adjusted EBITDA eliminates items that we do not consider to be part of our core operations. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net loss excluding the following items: interest expense; income tax expense; depreciation and amortization of tangible assets; stock-based compensation; Business Combination transaction expenses; and other non-recurring items that may arise from time to time.
The non-GAAP adjustments, and our basis for excluding them from our non-GAAP financial measure, are outlined below:
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service payments on our shareholder loans which is not a core form of financing for our business; | |
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax expense, which relates to our foreign subsidiary, because we have suffered recurring consolidated operating losses since inception and expect that to continue in the future; | |
● | Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets that we currently depreciate and amortize will likely have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the cash required to fund such replacements; | |
● | Adjusted EBITDA excludes stock-based compensation expense which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring non-cash expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy; | |
● | Adjusted EBITDA excludes transactions costs attributable to legal, advisory, and other professional service fees incurred in connection with the Business Combination because they are unrelated to our current operations and are not comparable to the prior period nor predicative of future results; | |
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the effect of earnings or charges resulting from matters that our management does not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operations. However, some of these charges and gains (such as mark-to-market adjustments, stock warrant expense etc.) have recurred and may recur; and | |
● | Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. |

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2023, our principal sources of liquidity were net proceeds received related to the Business Combination and cash received from customers.
The following table shows net cash and cash equivalents used in operating activities, net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities, and net cash and cash equivalents provided by financing activities during the periods presented:

Operating Activities
Our net cash and cash equivalents used in operating activities consists of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, including depreciation and amortization, Business Combination cost, stock-based compensation expense, changes in fair value of liability classified financial instruments, and as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities. The primary changes in working capital items, such as the changes in accounts receivable and deferred revenue, result from the difference in timing of payments from our customers related to contract performance obligation. This may result in an operating cash flow source or use for the period, depending on the timing of payments received as compared to the fulfillment of the performance obligation.
Net cash used in operating activities was $4.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. Net cash used in operating activities was due to our net loss of $33.8 million, which is offset by non-cash items of $28.4 million, primarily consisting of the change in fair value of convertible debt of $17.5 million, stock warrant expense of $9.2 million, change in fair value of PIPE notes of $0.3 million, stock based compensation of $1.5 million and cash from operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million due to the timing of cash payments to vendors and cash receipts from customers.
By comparison, the Company’s net cash used in operating activities was $4.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2022. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2022 was due to our net loss of $30.5 million, which is offset by non-cash items of $25.8 million, primarily consisting of the change in fair value of convertible debt of $14.6 million, stock warrant expense of $8.1 million, board of director warrant expense of $1.2 million and stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million.
Investing Activities
Our investing activities have consisted primarily of property and equipment purchases.
Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023 consisted of $44 thousand of purchased property and equipment.
By comparison, the Company’s net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2022 consisted primarily of $58 thousand of purchased property and equipment.
41 |
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, which primarily consisted of $4.2 million proceeds from the issuance of convertible promissory note payable, $1.5 million proceeds from the issuance of PIPE Notes, $0.5 proceeds from related party loan offset by $1.5 million of Business Combination costs paid.
By comparison, the Company’s net cash provided by financing activities was $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, which primarily consisted of $5.1 million proceeds from the issuance of convertible promissory notes payable offset by $1.5 million of Business Combination costs paid.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments and Going Concern Outlook
Currently, management does not believe that cash and cash equivalents is sufficient to meet our foreseeable cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Our foreseeable cash needs, in addition to our recurring operating expenses, include our expected capital expenditures to support the expansion of our infrastructure and workforce, interest expense and minimum contractual obligations. Management hopes to raise cash either through a public offering or private debt and equity offering. As a result of the Company’s recurring loss from operations and the need for additional financing to fund its operating and capital requirements there is uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to maintain liquidity sufficient to operate its business effectively, which raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support research and development efforts, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the introduction of new and enhanced product and service offerings, and the cost of any future acquisitions of technology or businesses. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may be unable to raise the funds on acceptable terms, if at all.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that can have a significant impact on our reported revenue, results of operations, and net income or loss, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our balance sheet during and as of the reporting periods. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary because future events and their effects on our results of operations and the value of our assets cannot be determined with certainty and are made based on our historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur or additional information is obtained, and we may periodically be faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within our control and may not be known for a prolonged period of time. Because the use of estimates is inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.
We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with the following critical accounting policies involve significant judgment and thus have the most significant potential impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
42 |
Revenue Recognition
Although most of our sales agreements contain standard terms and conditions, certain agreements contain multiple performance obligations. For customer contracts that contain more than one performance obligation, we allocate the total transaction consideration to each performance obligation based on the relative stand-alone selling price of each performance obligation within the contract.
Subscription Revenue
Subscription revenues are generated from the Company’s data exchange (BEAM) product, which is a medical imaging exchange platform between hospital/healthcare systems, imaging centers, physicians and patients. Subscriptions to the BEAM platform offering are recognized over time as the customer consumes the benefits of the services as the Company stands ready to provide access to the programs throughout the subscription period. Subscription customers are invoiced either quarterly or annually in advance with the customer contracts automatically renewing unless the customer issues a cancellation notice. The timing of revenue recognition is based on a time-based measure of progress as the Company provides access to the programs evenly over the course of the subscription period.
Web Imaging Revenue
Web imaging revenues are generated from the Company’s data broker (iRWD) product, which provides regulatory grade imaging and clinical data in the pharmaceutical, device manufacturing, clinical research organizations, and artificial intelligence markets. Web imaging customers are invoiced in installments as the related data is delivered. Revenue from the sale of web imaging products is recognized over time using an output measure of progress, which is based on the number of data units delivered relative to the total data units committed by the customer.
Fair Value of Equity-Based Awards
We estimate the fair value of stock option awards granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses as inputs the fair value of our common stock and subjective assumptions we make, including expected stock price volatility, the expected term of the award, the risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. Due to the lack of company-specific historical and implied volatility data, we base the estimate of expected stock price volatility on the historical volatility of a representative group of publicly traded companies for which historical information is available. The historical volatility is generally calculated for a period of time commensurate with the expected term assumption. We use the simplified method to calculate the expected term for options granted to employees and directors. We utilize this method as we do not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term. The risk-free interest rate is based on a U.S. treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected term of the stock options. The expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero, as we have never paid dividends and do not have current plans to pay any dividends on our Common Stock.
As there was no public market for our common stock prior to November 7, 2023, the estimated fair value of our common stock was previously approved by our Board of Directors, with input from management, as of the date of each award grant, considering our most recently available independent third-party valuations of our Common Stock and our Board of Directors’ assessment of additional objective and subjective factors deemed relevant that may have changed from the date of the most recent valuation through the date of the grant.
Fair Value of Certain Debt and Liability Instruments, and the Fair Value Option of Accounting
When financial instruments contain various embedded derivatives which require bifurcation and separate accounting of those derivatives apart from the host instruments, if eligible, GAAP allows issuers to elect the fair value option (“FVO”) of accounting for those instruments. The FVO allows the issuer to account for the entire financial instrument, including accrued interest, at fair value with subsequent remeasurements of that fair value recorded through the statements of operations. We elected the FVO of accounting for contingently convertible notes payable, including contingently issuable warrants and accrued interest, and certain term notes payable, including accrued interest, as further described below and as discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our accompanying consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
43 |
Convertible notes payable and the PIPE Notes, which include the related contingently issuable warrants, contain embedded derivatives, which require bifurcation and separate accounting under GAAP, for which the Company elected the FVO for the convertible notes payable and PIPE Notes. In addition, certain term PIPE Notes were issued with separately exercisable and freestanding warrants to purchase Common Stock, were issued with substantial discounts at issuance and contained certain embedded derivatives to be bifurcated and accounted for separately for those term notes, unless the FVO is eligible and elected. Accordingly, the Company qualified for and elected the FVO for the entire PIPE Notes instruments. The convertible debt and accrued interest at their stated interest rates were initially recorded at fair value as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and were subsequently re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period presented within the consolidated financial statements. The changes in the fair value of the convertible notes payable and PIPE Notes are recorded in changes in fair value of convertible debt, included as a component of other income and expenses, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value related to the accrued interest components is also included within the single line of change in fair value of convertible debt on the consolidated statements of operations. See additional information on valuation methodologies and significant assumptions used in Note 6, Debt, and Note 11, Fair Value Measurement to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Amended Form 10-K.
The estimated fair values of the convertible promissory notes and PIPE Notes are each determined based on the aggregated, probability-weighted average of the outcomes of certain possible scenarios. The combined value of the probability-weighted average of those outcomes is then discounted back to each reporting period in which the convertible notes are outstanding, in each case, based on a risk-adjusted discount rate estimated based on the implied discount rate. The discount rate was held constant over the valuation periods given the fact pattern associated with the Company and the stage of development.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:
As of December 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Instruction 8 to Item 303(b) of Regulation S-K.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk, including changes to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
44 |
Interest Rate Sensitivity
We had cash and cash equivalents totaling $47 thousand and $0.3 million as of December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and investments with original maturities of three months or less, are stated at cost, and approximate fair value. Our investment policy and strategy are focused on preservation of capital, supporting our liquidity requirements, and delivering competitive returns subject to prevailing market conditions. We were not exposed to material risks due to changes in market interest rates given the liquidity of the cash and investments with original maturities of three months.
Foreign Currency Risk
Although we are exposed to foreign currency risk from our international operations, we do not consider it to have a material impact. Certain transactions of the Company and its subsidiaries are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Foreign currency transaction losses were immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, each of which were recorded within other expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are generally held with large financial institutions. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Although the Company’s deposits may exceed federally insured limits, the financial institutions that the Company uses have high investment-grade credit ratings and, as a result, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2023, its risk relating to deposits exceeding federally insured limits was not significant.
The Company has no significant off-balance sheet risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts, or other hedging arrangements.
The Company believes its credit policies are prudent and reflect normal industry terms and business risk. The Company generally does not require collateral from its customers and generally requires payment from zero to 90 days from the invoice date with typical terms of 30 days. As of December 31, 2023, three customers accounted for over 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance, and one customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2022.

INDEX TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
OneMedNet Corporation
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of OneMedNet Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in temporary equity and stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Restatement to Correct Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the 2023 and 2022 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct misstatements.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since inception and expects to continue incurring operating losses and negative cash flows in the future. These matters raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

ONEMEDNET CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization and Operations
OneMedNet Corporation (the “Company”) is a healthcare software company with solutions focused on digital medical image management, exchange, and sharing. The Company was founded in Delaware on November 20, 2015. The Company has been solely focused on creating solutions that simplify digital medical image management, exchange, and sharing. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., incorporated on October 16, 2015 under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company’s headquarters location is Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
On November 7, 2023, we consummated a merger (the “Merger”) following the approval at the special meeting of the shareholders of Data Knights Acquisition Corp. (“Data Knights”), a Delaware corporation, held on October 17, 2023 (the “Special Meeting”), of the agreement and plan of merger, dated as of April 25, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Data Knights, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights, OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation) (“Legacy ONMD”), Data Knights, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”), and Paul Casey, in his capacity as representative of the stockholders of Legacy ONMD. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy ONMD, with Legacy ONMD surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights (such transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”).
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the markets it serves, including, but not limited to, global economic and financial market conditions, fluctuations in customer demand, acceptance of new products, development by its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, and protection of proprietary technology.
Going Concern and Management’s Plan
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The
Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception, including $
To continue in existence and expand its operations, the Company will be required to, and management plans to, raise additional working capital through an equity or debt offering and ultimately attain profitable operations to fulfill its operating and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. However, the Company may not be able to secure such financing in a timely manner or on favorable terms, if at all. Furthermore, if the Company issues equity securities to raise additional funds, its existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the Company’s existing stockholders. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue receiving working capital cash payments and generating cash flow from operations.

Nasdaq Notices
On February 7, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “MVLS Nasdaq Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) indicating that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the market value of the Company’s listed securities (“MVLS”) did not maintain a minimum market value of $50,000,000 (the “Minimum MVLS Requirement”) as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(2)(A). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until August 5, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement. Compliance could have been achieved if the Company’s MVLS closed at $50,000,000 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period, in which case Nasdaq would notify the Company of its compliance, and the matter would be closed.
If the Company did not regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement by August 5, 2024, Nasdaq would have provided written notification to the Company that its Common Stock was subject to delisting. At that time, the Company could have appealed the relevant delisting determination to a hearings panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Company sought to apply for a transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, and on August 15, 2024, the Company received approval from Nasdaq to list the Common Stock and Public Warrants on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Common Stock and Public Warrants were transferred from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market at the opening of business on August 19, 2024, and continue to trade under the symbols “ONMD” and “ONMDW,” respectively.
On March 26, 2024, the Company received written notice (the “Bid Price Nasdaq Notice”) from Nasdaq notifying the Company that, for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Common Stock did not meet the minimum bid price of $1.00 per share requirement (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until September 23, 2024, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Compliance could have been achieved if the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock was at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. On June 10, 2024, the Nasdaq staff determined that for the prior 11 consecutive business days, from May 23, 2024, to June 7, 2024, the closing bid price of the Company’s Common Stock had been at $1.00 per share or greater. Accordingly, the Company regained compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), and this matter was closed.
On June 20, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice”), which indicated that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “Q1 2024 Form 10-Q”) by the applicable due date, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Periodic Report Rule”), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice stated that the Company had 60 calendar days to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule. If Nasdaq accepted the Company’s plan to regain compliance, then Nasdaq could have granted the Company up to 180 calendar days from the prescribed due date of the Form 10-Q to regain compliance.
On September 9, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Q2 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice”), which indicated that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 (together with the Q1 2024 Form 10-Q, the “Delinquent Filings”) by the applicable due date, the Company was not in compliance with the Periodic Report Rule, which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC.
On September 10, 2024, the Company received a notification letter from Nasdaq the “Nasdaq Compliance Plan Notice”), which responded to the Company’s plan to regain compliance regarding its delinquent Q1 2024 Form 10-Q, granting the Company an exception until October 31, 2024 to file the Delinquent Filings with the SEC and regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Periodic Report Rule by October 31, 2024, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company’s securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Nasdaq’s determination to a hearings panel.
F-7 |
On October 8, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice”) indicating that for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the Company’s MVLS was below the minimum of $35 million required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The staff at Nasdaq also noted in the Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice that the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(3), which requires listed companies to maintain a minimum of $500,000 of net income from continuing operations. In accordance with Nasdaq listing rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 7, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum MVLS Requirement. Compliance may be achieved if the Company’s MVLS closes at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period, in which case Nasdaq will notify the Company of its compliance and the matter will be closed, If the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the 180-day compliance period, Nasdaq staff will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
On October 16, 2024, the Company received a delinquency notification letter from Nasdaq (the “Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice,” and together with the MVLS Nasdaq Notice, the Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Q1 2024 Form 10-Q Nasdaq Notice, the Q2 2024 Form 10 Q Nasdaq Notice, the Nasdaq Compliance Plan Notice, and the Second MVLS Nasdaq Notice, the “Nasdaq Notices”) notifying the Company that, for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice, the Common Stock did not meet the Minimum Bid Price Requirement as required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has 180 calendar days, or until April 14, 2025, to regain compliance. The Second Bid Price Nasdaq Notice notes that to regain compliance, the Common Stock must maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 for at least ten consecutive business days at any time during the 180-day compliance period. In the event the Company does not regain compliance by the end of the 180-day compliance period, the Company may be eligible for additional time to regain compliance. To qualify for additional time, the Company must (i) meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of its publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement and (ii) provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, the Company may be granted an additional 180 calendar days to regain compliance. However, if it appears to Nasdaq that the Company will be unable to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is not otherwise eligible for the additional cure period, Nasdaq will provide written notice to the Company that its securities are subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal any such delisting determination to a hearings panel.
The Nasdaq Notices received have no immediate effect on the Company’s continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market or the trading of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to the Company’s compliance with the other continued listing requirements. The Company is presently evaluating potential actions to regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in maintaining the listing of its Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, including its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and the amounts disclosed in these notes to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from management’s estimates, judgments, and assumptions. Significant estimates, judgments, and assumptions used in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, those related to revenue such as determining the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations, allowances for accounts receivable, useful lives and realizability of long-lived assets, accounting for income taxes and related valuation allowances, and stock-based compensation. Estimates are periodically reviewed in light of changes in circumstances, facts, and experience.
Operating Segments
The Company operates as one operating segment. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s CODM evaluates the Company’s financial information and resources and assesses the performance of these resources on a consolidated basis. The Company is not organized by market and is managed and operated as one business. A single management team that reports to the chief executive officer comprehensively manages the entire business. Accordingly, the Company does not accumulate discrete financial information with respect to separate divisions and does not have separate operating or reportable segments. Since the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid, short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash equivalents consist of money market funds and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The balances, at times, may exceed FDIC insured limits. The Company believes that, as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, its risk relating to deposits exceeding federally insured limits was not significant. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts
receivable is unsecured, recorded at net realizable value, and do not bear interest. Accounts receivable is considered past due if not
paid within the terms established between the Company and the customer. Amounts are only written off after all attempts at collections
have been exhausted. The Company determines the need for an allowance for credit losses based upon factors surrounding the credit risk
of specific customers, historical trends and other information. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company established allowances
for credit losses of $

The
Company believes its credit policies are prudent and reflect normal industry terms and business risk. The Company generally does not
require collateral from its customers and generally requires payment from 0 to 90 days from the invoice date. For the year ended December

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The straight-line method is used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated and amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Cost of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the estimated
future undiscounted net cash flows from the use of the asset are less than the carrying amount of that asset. There were
Fair value option of accounting
When financial instruments contain various embedded derivatives which may require bifurcation and separate accounting of those derivatives apart from the entire host instrument, if eligible, ASC 825, Financial Instruments, allows issuers to elect the fair value option (“FVO”) of accounting for those instruments. The FVO may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable unless a new election date occurs. The FVO allows the issuer to account for the entire financial instrument at fair value with subsequent remeasurements of that fair value recorded through the statements of operations at each reporting date. A financial instrument is generally eligible for the FVO if, amongst other factors, no part of the convertible, or contingently convertible, instrument is classified in stockholders’ equity and the instrument does not contain a beneficial conversion feature at issuance. In addition, because a contingent beneficial conversion feature, if any, is not separately recognized within stockholders’ equity at the issuance date, a convertible debt instrument with a contingent beneficial conversion feature is therefore eligible for the FVO if all other criteria are met.
Based on the eligibility assessment discussed above, the Company concluded that its convertible notes payable is eligible for the FVO and accordingly elected the FVO for those debt instruments. This election was made because of operational efficiencies in valuing and reporting for these debt instruments in their entirety at each reporting date.
F-18 |
Convertible promissory notes and the PIPE Notes contain embedded derivatives, which require bifurcation and separate accounting under GAAP, for which the Company elected the FVO. In addition, certain term PIPE Notes were issued with separately exercisable and freestanding warrants to purchase common stock, were issued with substantial discounts at issuance and contained certain embedded derivatives to be bifurcated and accounted for separately for those term notes, unless the FVO is eligible and elected. Accordingly, the Company qualified for and elected the FVO for the entire PIPE Notes instruments. The convertible debt and accrued interest at their stated interest rates were initially recorded at fair value as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and were subsequently re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period presented within the consolidated financial statements. The changes in the fair value of the convertible promissory notes and PIPE Notes are recorded in changes in fair value of convertible debt and change in fair value of PIPE Notes, included as a component of other (income) expenses, net, in the consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value related to the accrued interest components is also included within the respective single line of change in fair value of convertible debt and change in fair value of PIPE Notes on the consolidated statements of operations. See additional information on valuation methodologies and significant assumptions used in Note 6 and Note 10.
Warrants
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Warrants that meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument and the equity scope exception in ASC 815-10-15-74(a) are classified as equity and are not subject to remeasurement provided that the Company continues to meet the criteria for equity classification. Warrants that are classified as liabilities are accounted for at fair value and remeasured at each reporting date until exercise, expiration, or modification that results in equity classification. Any change in the fair value of the warrants is recognized as change in fair value of warrant liabilities included as a component of other (income) expenses, net in the consolidated statements of operations. The classification of warrants, including whether warrants should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of liability-classified warrants is determined using the Black-Scholes options pricing model (“Black-Scholes model”) which includes Level 3 inputs, as shown in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.
When quoted market prices are available in active markets, the fair value of assets and liabilities is estimated within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of assets and liabilities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows, within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. In cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, the fair values are estimated by using inputs within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
The Company has determined the estimated fair value of its financial instruments based on appropriate valuation methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required to develop these estimates. Accordingly, these estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The estimated fair values can be materially affected by using different assumptions or methodologies. The methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments are based on carrying values and future cash flows.
F-19 |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, convertible notes payable, liability classified financial instruments and certain privately issued warrants. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is net of an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of expected credit losses. See Note 11 for fair value measurements.
Classification of Series A-1, and Series A-2 preferred stock
The Company originally classified its Series A-1 and Series A-2 preferred stock (collectively “Preferred Stock”) outside of permanent equity because the Preferred Stock contained certain redemption features that result in those shares being redeemable upon the occurrence of certain events that are not solely within the Company’s control, including liquidation, sale or transfer of control. Accordingly, the Preferred Stock was recorded outside of permanent equity and was subject to the classification guidance provided under ASC 480-10-S99. Because dividends were not contractually required to be accrued on the Preferred Stock as there was no stated or required dividend rate per annum, the Company was not required to accrete dividends into the carrying amount of the Preferred Stock in anticipation of a future contingent event or redemption value. Accordingly, the Company did not adjust the carrying values of the Preferred Stock to the respective liquidation preferences of such shares because of the uncertainty of whether or when such events would occur. As of December 31, 2023, all shares of Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock pursuant to their provisions in connection with the Business Combination, which closed on November 7, 2023 (see Note 3).
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which aligns revenue recognition with the transference of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
This core principle is achieved to the application of a five-step model: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied. Payment terms between customers related to product and services sales vary by the type of customer, country of sale, and the products or services offered and could result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).
Revenue from all customers is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of a distinct good or service to a customer. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account under Topic 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in proportion to the standalone selling price for each and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied.
Individual promised goods and services in a contract are considered a performance obligation and accounted for separately if the good or service is distinct. A good or service is considered distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer and the good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the arrangement.
The transaction price for the products is the invoiced amount. Advanced billings from contracts are deferred and recognized as revenue when earned. Revenue is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur and when collection is considered probable. The Company excludes from revenue taxes collected from a customer that are assessed by a governmental authority and imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction. Deferred revenue consists of payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Such amounts are generally recognized as revenue over the contractual period. The Company receives payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules. Accounts receivable is recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Payment terms on invoiced amounts typically range from zero to 90 days, with typical terms of 30 days.
F-20 |
Subscription Revenue
Subscription revenues are generated from the Company’s data exchange (BEAM) product, which is a medical imaging exchange platform between hospital/healthcare systems, imaging centers, physicians and patients. Subscriptions to the BEAM platform offering are recognized over time as the customer consumes the benefits of the services as the Company stands ready to provide access to the programs throughout the subscription period. Subscription customers are invoiced either quarterly or annually in advance with the customer contracts automatically renewing unless the customer issues a cancellation notice. The timing of revenue recognition is based on a time-based measure of progress as the Company provides access to the programs evenly over the course of the subscription period.
Web Imaging Revenue
Web imaging revenues are generated from the Company’s data broker (iRWD) product, which provides regulatory grade imaging and clinical data in the pharmaceutical, device manufacturing, clinical research organizations, and artificial intelligence markets. Web imaging customers are invoiced in installments as the related data is delivered. Revenue from the sale of web imaging products is recognized over time using an output measure of progress, which is based on the number of data units delivered relative to the total data units committed by the customer.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized for differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, at enacted statutory tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company establishes a valuation allowance if it believes it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be recovered based on an evaluation of all available evidence.
The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination. If it is not more likely than not that a position will be sustained, none of the benefit attributable to the position is recognized. The tax benefit to be recognized for any tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is calculated as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon resolution of the contingency. The Company accounts for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of its provision for income taxes.
Patents and Trademarks
Costs associated with the submission of a patent application are expensed as incurred given the uncertainty of the patents resulting in probable future economic benefits to the Company and are included in research and development expenses on the consolidated statements of operations.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for its research and development (“R&D”) costs in accordance with ASC 730, Research and Development (“ASC 730”). ASC 730 requires that R&D costs are generally recognized as an expense as incurred. However, some costs associated with R&D activities that have an alternative future use (e.g., materials, equipment, facilities) may be capitalizable. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 research and development expenditures were charged to operating expense as incurred.
F-21 |
Stock-based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense related to employee option grants and restricted stock grants, if any, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).
The Company measures all stock options and other stock-based awards granted based on the fair value of the award on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur. The reversal of compensation cost previously recognized for an award that is forfeited because of a failure to satisfy a service condition is recognized in the period of the forfeiture. Generally, and unless otherwise specified, the Company grants stock options with service-based only vesting conditions and records the expense for these awards using the straight-line method over the requisite service period.
The Company classifies stock-based compensation expense in its consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll costs are classified or in which the award recipients’ service payments are classified.
Prior to the Business Combination, the Company was required to periodically estimate the fair value of its Common Stock with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm when issuing stock options and computing estimated stock-based compensation expense. The assumptions underlying these valuations represented the Company’s best estimates, which involved inherent uncertainties and the application of significant levels of judgment. In order to determine the fair value of its Common Stock, the Company considered, among other items, previous transactions involving the sale of Company securities, the business, financial condition and results of operations, economic and industry trends, the market performance of comparable publicly traded companies, and the lack of marketability of the Company’s Common Stock.
Each valuation methodology includes estimates and assumptions that require the Company’s judgment. These estimates and assumptions include a number of objective and subjective factors, including external market conditions, guideline public company information, the prices at which the Company sold convertible preferred stock and common stock to third parties in arms’ length transactions, the rights and preferences of securities senior to the Company’s common stock at the time, and the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event such as an initial public offering or sale. Significant changes to the assumptions used in the valuations could result in materially different fair values of stock options at each valuation date, as applicable. Following the Business Combination (see Note 3), the Company used the public price of its Common Stock.
The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company estimates its expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of a publicly traded set of peer companies within the biotechnology industry with characteristics similar to the Company. The expected term of the Company’s stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method, which reflects the weighted-average of time-to-vesting. The risk-free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is zero, based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated using the two-class method, which is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for the holders of the Company’s Common Stock and participating securities. Although the Company’s historical Preferred Stock contained participating rights in any dividend declared and paid by the Company and were therefore participating securities, the Preferred Stock had no stated dividends and OneMedNet has never paid any cash dividends and does not plan to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Net loss attributable to common stockholders and participating securities is allocated to each share on an if-converted basis as if all of the earnings for the period had been distributed. However, the participating securities do not include a contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company and are not included in the calculation of net loss per share in the periods that have a net loss. In addition, common stock equivalent shares (whether or not participating) are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per common share.
F-22 |
Diluted net loss per share is computed using the more dilutive of (a) the two-class method or (b) the if-converted method and treasury stock method, as applicable. Contingently convertible notes payable and PIPE Notes were not included for purposes of calculating the number of diluted shares outstanding as the number of dilutive shares is based on a conversion contingency associated with the completion of a future financing event that had not occurred, and the contingency was not resolved, in the reporting periods presented herein. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss attributable to common stockholders, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is the same as basic net loss per share attributable to common stockholders since dilutive common shares are not assumed to have been issued if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted net loss per share is equivalent to basic net loss per share for the periods presented herein because common stock equivalent shares from the Preferred Stock, convertible notes, stock option awards and outstanding warrants to purchase common stock were antidilutive.
As a result of the Company reporting net loss attributable to common stockholders for all periods presented herein, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 because including them would have been antidilutive (in thousands):

General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include all costs that are not directly related to satisfaction of customer contracts. General and administrative expenses include items for the Company’s selling and administrative functions, such as sales, finance, legal, human resources, and information technology support. These functions include costs for items such as salaries and benefits and other personnel-related costs, maintenance and supplies, professional fees for external legal, accounting, and other consulting services, and depreciation expense.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an emerging growth company, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has not elected to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.
F-23 |
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to provide enhancements to segment disclosures, even for entities with only one reportable segment. In particular, the standard will require disclosures of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit and loss. The standard will also require disclosure of all other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition. Finally, the standard will require disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and an explanation of how the chief operating decision maker uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on the presentation of its consolidated financial statements and footnotes.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, “Topic 326”, an amendment on measurement of credit losses on financial assets held by at each reporting date. The guidance requires the use of a new current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model in estimating allowances for doubtful accounts with respect to accounts receivable. The CECL model requires that the Company estimate its lifetime expected credit loss with respect to these receivables and record allowances that, when deducted from the balance of the receivables, represent the estimated net amounts expected to be collected. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2022-03”), which clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring fair value. ASU 2022-03 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company adopted ASU No. 2022-03 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
3. Business Combination
On November 7, 2023, the Company closed the previously announced Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, dated April 25, 2022, by and among Data Knights, Merger Sub, and Legacy ONMD, as described in Note 1.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement: (i) Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy ONMD, with Legacy ONMD surviving the Merger, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Data Knights, and (ii) Data Knights, which had been formed as a Delaware corporation solely for the purpose of facilitating the Business Combination, changed its name to OneMedNet Corporation.
The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, Data Knights was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. This determination is primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Business Combination, Legacy ONMD’s stockholders have the majority of the voting power of the combined entity, Legacy ONMD comprised all of the ongoing operations of the combined entity, Legacy ONMD comprised a majority of the governing body of the combined entity, and Legacy ONMD’s senior management comprised all of the senior management of the combined entity. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Legacy ONMD issuing shares for the net assets of Data Knights, accompanied by a recapitalization.
F-24 |
Since this is considered a recapitalization for accounting purposes, the net assets of Data Knights were not remeasured at fair value but were stated at historical cost and there was no goodwill or intangibles recognized. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy ONMD.

has evaluated the positive and negative evidence bearing upon the realizability of the Company’s net deferred tax assets, which
are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards and research costs capitalized for tax purposes. Management has considered
the Company’s history of cumulative operating losses and estimated future tax losses and has determined that it is more likely
than not that the Company will not recognize the benefits of the net deferred tax assets. As a result, the Company has recorded a full
valuation allowance at December 31, 2023 and 2022. The valuation allowance increased by $
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes both interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company has not recorded any interest or penalties for unrecognized tax benefits since its inception.
The Company files federal, various state, and Canada tax returns. In the U.S., all tax years since inception remain open to examination by major tax jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, as carryforward attributes generated in years past may still be adjusted upon examination by the respective tax authorities if they have or will be used in a future period. In Canada, the Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations for the years before 2020. The Company is currently not under examination by any tax authority.

Such guidance provides that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability.
The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires that the Company record a derivative liability upon issuance of the warrants. Accordingly, the Company classifies each warrant as a liability at its fair value and the warrants were allocated a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Units equal to its fair value. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date. With each such re-measurement, the warrant liability will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. The Company will reassess the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the warrants will be reclassified as of the date of the event that causes the reclassification.

Convertible Promissory Notes and PIPE Notes
The estimated fair values of the convertible promissory notes and PIPE Notes are each determined based on the aggregated, probability-weighted average of the outcomes of certain possible scenarios. The combined value of the probability-weighted average of those outcomes is then discounted back to each reporting period in which the convertible notes are outstanding, in each case, based on a risk-adjusted discount rate estimated based on the implied discount rate. The discount rate was held constant over the valuation periods given the fact pattern associated with the company and the stage of development.
As of December 31, 2023, in connection with the Closing of the Business Combination described in Note 3, all convertible promissory notes were converted to Common Stock in accordance with the conversion provisions in the original agreements.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
On May 3, 2024, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) entered an Order denying BF Borgers CPA PC (“Borgers”) the privilege of appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant. As a result, Borgers may not participate in or perform the audit or review of financial information included in Commission filings, issue audit reports included in Commission filings, provide consents with respect to audit reports, or otherwise appear or practice before the Commission. As a result of the foregoing, on May 6, 2024, the Board of Directors terminated Borgers as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Borgers had audited the Company’s financial statements since 2022.
Borger’s report on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was such report qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle, except for an explanatory paragraph relating to a substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 and through May 6, 2024, there were no disagreements with BF Borgers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Borgers’s satisfaction, would have caused Borgers to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022 and through May 6, 2024, there were no “reportable events” as defined under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, except for the identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in this Amended Form 10-K.
On June 3, 2024, the Company appointed WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”) as its new independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022. This appointment was authorized and approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective because of material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting which were not designed properly to ensure proper identification of non-routine transactions and ensure appropriate segregation of duties.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As disclosed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we completed the Business Combination on November 7, 2023. Prior to the Business Combination Data Knights, our predecessor, was a special purpose acquisition company formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. As a result, previously existing internal controls are no longer applicable or comprehensive enough as of the assessment date, because Data Knights’ operations prior to the Business Combination were insignificant compared to those of the consolidated entity post-Business Combination. As a result, management is aware of material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control related to user access/segregation of duties, lack of a formalized control environment and oversight of controls over financial reporting, errors in accounting for non-routine transactions, and lack of record keeping. Additionally, management was unable, without incurring unreasonable effort or expense, to complete an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. Accordingly, we are excluding management’s report on internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 215.02 of the SEC Division of Corporate Finance’s Regulation S-K Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as noted above, no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B. Other Information
None.
Item 9C. Disclosure Regarding Foreign Jurisdictions that Prevent Inspections
Not applicable.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Related Person Transactions
The following is a description of certain transactions, arrangements and relationships in which we were a participant since January 1, 2022 and the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our executive officers, directors or holders of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Certain equity, compensation, and other arrangements are described under “Executive Compensation” and are not considered related person transactions for these purposes.
PIPE Notes and Warrants
As disclosed in Note 3 and Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statement included herein, Data Knights issued and sold PIPE Notes in connection with the Business Combination, which are convertible into shares of Common Stock. Total proceeds raised from the PIPE Notes were $1.5 million, of which $1.0 million were with related party investors, including our Mr. Green (our Chief Executive Officer), Dr. Yu (our Chairman of the Board) and Dr. Kosasa (a director). In connection with the issuance of the PIPE Notes, the Company also issued a total of 95,744 shares of PIPE Warrants, of which 63,829 shares were issued to the same related party investors. Refer to Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statement included herein for additional details on the terms of the PIPE Warrants.
Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants
From 2019 to 2023, the Company issued various Convertible Promissory Notes to related party investors. Total gross proceeds raised from Convertible Promissory Notes with related parties was $12.3 million (out of $14.2 million total). In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Promissory Notes, the Company also issued 2,976,000 shares of Convertible Promissory Note Warrants to the same related parties (out of 3,726,000 total). Refer to Note 6 and Note 10 for additional details on the terms of the Convertible Promissory Notes and Convertible Promissory Note Warrants, respectively.
The Closing of the Business Combination triggered the conversion of all Convertible Promissory Notes into shares of Common Stock, as disclosed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statement included herein.
Shareholder Loans
From April 2023 to December 2023, the Company entered into shareholder loans with two related party investors, including Dr. Yu (our Chairman of the Board) and Dr. Kosasa (a director) (the “Shareholder Loans”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $954 thousand. The Shareholder Loans bear an interest rate of 8.0% and mature one year from issuance. There are no financial or non-financial covenants associated with the Shareholder Loans. The Shareholder Loans are not convertible into equity.
On November 7, 2023, in connection with the Business Combination, one of the Shareholder Loans for $0.5 million was converted into a PIPE Note equal to the amount of principal and interest outstanding at the time of Closing. The Company accounted for the exchange as an extinguishment whereby the Shareholder Loan was written off and a separate PIPE Note was recorded at fair value, as disclosed in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statement included herein.
As of December 31, 2023, a total of $454 thousand of Shareholder Loans remains outstanding which is classified as loan – related party on the consolidated balance sheet.
During 2024, through the date of this report, the Company received gross proceeds of $2.0 million in connection with shareholder loans with related party investors, including Dr. Yu (our Chairman of the Board) and Dr. Kosasa (a director). Of the $2.0 million, $1.6 million is convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.7535 per share. The remaining $0.4 million is not convertible into equity and bears an interest rate of 8.0% with a maturity date one year from issuance. The Company subsequently repaid $0.2 million of the non-convertible shareholder loans through the date of this report.

As of December 31, 2023, a balance of $3.0 million remains outstanding and is recorded as loan extensions on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
Policies and Procedures for Approving Transactions with Related Persons
Our Audit Committee reviews and oversees all related person transactions in accordance with our Related Party Transactions Policy, either in advance or when we become aware of a related person transaction that was not reviewed and approved in advance. Other than as described above, there were no related person transactions in the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2023. The transactions described above were approved by the Board of Directors at the time they were entered into.

Director Independence
The rules of Nasdaq require that a majority of the Company’s board of directors be independent. An “independent director” is generally defined under applicable Nasdaq rules as a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
Our Board is comprised of a majority of independent directors. Our Board has determined that each of Eric Casaburi, Jair Clarke, Sherry Coonse McCraw, Dr. Thomas Kosasa, and Andrew Zeinfeld is an independent director under the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq and do not have any material relationship with us other than their positions as directors and stockholders. The following individuals also served as a director during the year ended December 31, 2023 and were determined by our Board to be independent under the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq: Erkan Akyuz, R. Scott Holbrook, and Dr. Julianne Huh. In making these determinations, our Board considered past employment, remuneration, and all other relationships each of these directors have with OneMedNet, as well as the specific independence tests set forth in Nasdaq’s director independence rules. As our President and Chief Executive Officer, our Interim Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary, and our Chief Medical Officer and Vice President, respectively, none of Mr. Green, Mr. Golden, or Dr. Yu is considered an independent director under SEC and Nasdaq rules.
The Board of Directors also has determined that Mr. Casaburi, Mr. Clarke, Ms. Coonse McCraw, Mr. Kosasa and Mr. Zeinfeld are “independent directors” under SEC rules applicable to Audit Committee members and Compensation Committee members, and that each of Mr. Akyuz, Mr. Golden, and Ms. Huh was an “independent director” under Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules applicable to Audit Committee members and Compensation Committee members for the periods in 2023 and 2024 that they each served on such committees.
Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services
The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention (including termination), scope and oversight of our independent auditors. WithumSmith+Brown, PC (“Withum”), a registered public accounting firm, has served as our independent auditors since 2024.
On May 3, 2024, the SEC permanently suspended BF Borgers CPA PC (“BF Borgers”) from appearing or practicing before the SEC as a registered public accounting firm. Following this order, on May 6, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the dismissal of BF Borgers as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. On June 3, 2024, the Company appointed Withum as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
The reports of BF Borgers on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles other than an explanatory paragraph relating to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and through the date of dismissal on May 6, 2024, there were no “disagreements” with BF Borgers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of BF Borgers would have caused BF Borgers to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements for such years. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, and through May 6, 2024, there have been no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K), except for the identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
57 |
Fees billed by BF Borgers for services provided for fiscal 2023 were as follows:
Year Ended December 31, 2023 | ||||
Audit Fees | $ | 203,500 | ||
Audit-Related Fees | — | |||
Tax Fees | 15,000 | |||
All Other Fees | — | |||
Total | $ | 218,500 |
Audit fees include fees associated with (i) the annual audit of our consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, (ii) the review of our periodic reports, (iii) accounting consultations, (iv) services related to, or required by, statute or regulation, such as consents, and (v) other audit services related to SEC and other regulatory filings. Tax fees represent fees for tax consulting services.
All of the services and fees of BF Borgers were pre-approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to the pre-approval policy and procedures set forth below. Withum did not perform any services for the Company in 2023 and any fees will be reported for 2024 in future filings. Any services and fees of Withum are also approved pursuant to the pre-approval policy and procedures set forth below.
Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
Under its charter, the Audit Committee is responsible for approving the fees and any other significant compensation paid to our independent accountants and pre-approving any non-audit services to be performed by our independent accountants. The pre-approval requirement may be waived only if the non-audit services meet a de minimis exception allowed by law. In carrying out this responsibility, the Audit Committee follows the following general procedures for the preapproval of non-audit services:
● | Each year the Audit Committee reviews and pre-approves a schedule of the proposed non-audit services and estimated fees to be provided by the independent accountants during the next annual audit cycle. | |
● | Actual amounts paid to the independent accountants are monitored by management and reported to the Audit Committee. | |
● | Any non-audit services proposed to be provided by the independent accountants and the related fees that have not been pre-approved during the annual review by the Audit Committee must be pre-approved by the Audit Committee in advance of any work performed (unless the services meet the de minimis exception allowed by law).Incremental fees for previously approved non-audit services that are expected to exceed the previously approved fee estimate must also be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. |
