Independent Auditors’ Report
 
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
 
Outcome Concept Systems, Inc.:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Outcome Concept Systems, Inc. and subsidiary (the Company) as of December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Outcome Concept Systems, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

OUTCOME CONCEPT SYSTEMS, INC.
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2009
 
 
(1)
Significant Accounting Policies
 
 
(a)
Nature of Business
 
Outcome Concept Systems, Inc. (the Company or OCS) was incorporated in January 1992. The Company provides business intelligence and information solutions to health care providers, government organizations, and stakeholders in the health care industry. The Company’s products combine software, data, and customized benchmarking services, which enable customers to fulfill regulatory requirements and improve clinical and financial performance. The Company operates from offices in Seattle, Washington and has customers throughout the United States.
 
 
(b)
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
(c)
Diversification of Credit Risk
 
Credit risk is represented by cash and unsecured trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2009, 37% of outstanding receivables are due from one customer.
 
 
(d)
Trade Accounts Receivable
 
Trade accounts receivable, which are uncollateralized, are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at year-end. Bad debts are provided for using the allowance method based on historical experience, current economic conditions, and management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of each year.
 
 
(e)
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in income for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
 
 
(f)
Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill and intangible assets result from the acquisition of the assets and liabilities of a business acquired in 2005. Intangible assets with determinable lives consist of customer relationships. The Company has no acquired intangible assets with indefinite lives other than goodwill. The cost of intangible assets with determinable lives is amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of economic benefit. These customer relationships are amortized over a period of 10 years. No residual value is estimated for these intangible assets. Amortizable lives are adjusted whenever there is a change in the estimated period of economic benefit.
 
(Continued)

OUTCOME CONCEPT SYSTEMS, INC.
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
December 31, 2009
 
 
Goodwill is not amortized into results of operations but instead is reviewed for impairment at least annually, and written down when impaired. An interim impairment test is required if an event occurs or conditions change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below the carrying value. Management performed its annual impairment test and determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying value, and, therefore, measurement of an impairment loss was not required in 2009.
 
 
(g)
Investment
 
The Company owns 50% of the outstanding common stock of a privately held company. The investment is accounted for using the equity method. The Company periodically evaluates this investment for declines in value that are other than temporary.
 
 
(h)
Revenue Recognition
 
The substantial majority of our revenues are derived from hosting arrangements where our propriety software is offered as a service to our customers through our data processing facilities. The Company’s revenue also includes software-related revenue for software license revenue, installation services, post-contract support (maintenance) and training. The Company also generates revenue from consulting services provided to our customers for ad hoc and discrete projects. The Company recognizes non-software-related revenue in accordance with the provisions of ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, and software-related revenue in accordance with the provisions of ASC 985-605, Software—Revenue Recognition. The components of our revenue are as follows:
 
Remote hosting arrangements
  $ 5,122,248  
Software arrangements
    163,765  
Consulting services
    478,604  
Other
    85,161  
Total revenue
  $ 5,849,778  
 
The Company does not separately identify and record cost of sales for these classes of revenue.
 
Hosting Arrangements
 
Hosting arrangements to provide customers with access to the Company’s propriety software are marketed under long-term arrangements generally over periods of 1 to 3 years. Under these arrangements, the customer is not provided the contractual right to take possession of the licensed software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty and the customer is not provided the right to run the software on their own hardware or contract with another party unrelated to us to host the software. Upfront fees for set-up services are typically billed for our hosting arrangements. However, these arrangements do not qualify for separation from the ongoing hosting services due to the absence of stand-alone value for the set-up services. Therefore, we account for these arrangements as service contracts and recognize revenues ratably over the hosting service period, when all other conditions to revenue are met. Other conditions that must be met before the commencement of revenue recognition include achieving evidence of an arrangement, determining that the collection of the revenues is probable, and determining that fees are fixed and determinable.

Software Arrangements
 
The Company’s software arrangements typically involve the sale of a time-based license bundled with installation services, post-contract support (PCS) and training. License terms range from 1 year to 3 years, and require an annual fee for bundled elements of the arrangement. PCS is also contractually provided for a period that is co-terminus with the term of the time-based license. The Company’s installation services are not considered to be essential to the functionality of the software license.
 
ASC 985-605 generally requires revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple-elements to be allocated to each element based on the relative fair values of those elements, or (alternatively) the use of the residual method if fair values can be determined for undelivered elements in the arrangement. The Company does not achieve vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of PCS due to the absence of a substantive renewal term and the absence of separate sales (renewals) of PCS. The Company also does not achieve VSOE of the fair value of installation and training services because the Company does not separately sell these elements apart from the bundled software arrangements. Since the Company does not have VSOE of PCS and other undelivered elements in the arrangement, the Company is unable to separately recognize revenues from the sale of its time-based licenses, therefore, recognizes the arrangement revenue ratably over the term of the PCS period, assuming all other conditions to revenue recognition are met. Other conditions that must be met before the commencement of revenue recognition include achieving evidence of an arrangement, determining that the collection of the revenues is probable, and determining that fees are fixed and determinable.
 
Consulting Services
 
The Company earns revenues for various ad hoc and project consulting services provided to customers under both time and-materials arrangements and fixed fee arrangements. Revenues are recognized as hours of service are rendered, assuming all other conditions to revenue recognition are met. Other conditions that must be met before the commencement of revenue recognition include achieving evidence of an arrangement, determining that the collection of the revenues is probable, and determining that fixed fees are fixed and determinable.
 
 
(i)
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Generally accepted accounting principles require the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values for stock awards issued, modified, repurchased, or canceled to employees and directors after January 1, 2006. Stock-based compensation plans, related expenses and assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model are more fully described in Note 12.
 
 
(j)
Variable Interest Entity
 
Generally accepted accounting principles require certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The office facility utilized by the Company is owned by Epic Property Management LLC (Epic), which is owned by the Company’s majority stockholders. Epic was formed in September 2003 and the Company began leasing office space in October 2003. The Company’s majority stockholders have guaranteed the mortgage loan related to the building, and therefore, the Company is an implicit guarantor on the mortgage loan. The amount outstanding on the mortgage loan including accrued interest at December 31, 2009 was $2,330,109. This mortgage loan was refinanced on January 26, 2009 and is due on January 26, 2014. The Company determined that the guarantee creates a variable interest in Epic. In addition, the Company concluded it would be considered the primary beneficiary of Epic and has therefore consolidated this interest. The carrying amount and classification of Epic’s assets are as follows:
 
Current assets
  $ 1,312  
Property and equipment (net)
    1,902,889

(k)
Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are provided in amounts sufficient to give effect to temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. A deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the expected tax rates, which will be in effect when these differences reverse. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
 
The Company adopted the guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes on January 1, 2009.
 
In evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered the unrealized capital losses in its investment in Dentra Corp. (Dentra) as well as other positive and negative evidence.
 
The Company files U.S. income tax returns and may be subject to income taxes in states in which it conducts business. All tax returns filed for tax years after 2005 remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state agencies.
 
 
(l)
Presentation of Sales Tax
 
Certain states in which the Company operates impose a sales tax on sales to nonexempt customers. The Company collects those sales taxes from customers and remits the entire amounts to the states. The Company’s accounting policy is to exclude the tax collected and remitted to the states from revenues and cost of sales.
 
 
(m)
Comprehensive Loss
 
The Company’s comprehensive loss for 2009 and accumulated comprehensive loss at December 31, 2009 equaled its net loss and accumulated deficit, respectively.

(n)
Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, various debt agreements, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value. All nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, which includes goodwill and investment, are measured at fair value in certain circumstances (for example when there is evidence of impairment).
 
(2)
Liquidity
 
At December 31, 2009, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $3.3 million. Furthermore, the Company did not comply with certain of its restrictive financial covenants for the revolving debt at December 31, 2009. Relief from the requirements of these restrictive covenants was obtained in the form of a forbearance dated July 22, 2010. Further disclosure on these covenants and the forbearance is in Note 6. The Company is subject to similar financial covenant requirements in 2010 and was not in compliance with these restrictive covenants in 2010. However, subsequent events including certain refinancing transactions and the sale of the Company as described in Note 14, “Subsequent Events”, have resulted in repayment of all of the liabilities of the Company, and consequently, the Company is no longer subject to the various conditions and covenant requirements described above.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company adopted the 2001 Stock Option Plan (the Plan) that provides for the issuance of up to 1,173,700 incentive and nonqualified common stock options for employees, directors, consultants, and advisors of the Company. Under the Plan, the exercise price of each option may not be less than the fair market value of the Company’s stock at the date of grant as determined by the Board of Directors. Options typically vest over three years from the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant; the plan administrator may waive or modify this schedule. Compensation expense related to these option awards is recognized 33% on the date of grant and the remainder on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of three years.
 
The Company issued 429,822 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.55 per share. Like stock options, compensation expense related to these warrants is recognized 33% on the date of grant and the remainder on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of three years. These warrants were issued in the year ended December 31, 2008 and none of the warrants were exercised or forfeited during 2009.
 
Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for stock-based compensation was $96,647 during 2009. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for stock-based compensation arrangements was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

    0.6194       888,218  
 
Outstanding options have varying expiration dates through November 2019.
 
As of December 31, 2009, options for 526,281 shares at a weighted average exercise price of $0.5494 were vested and exercisable. These options have a weighted average remaining contractual term of 8.86 years.
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-option awards. The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted in the year ended December 31, 2009 was $0.3864. Fair value on date of the grant was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
 
   
Year ended
   
December 31,
   
2009
Expected term (in years)
 
5.5
Risk-free interest rate
 
2.3%
Expected volatility
 
50.5%
Expected dividend yield
 
0%
 
The weighted-average expected term of options granted in 2009 reflects the application of the simplified method set out in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which defined the term as the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted-average vesting period for all option tranches. Expected volatility is primarily based on historical volatility levels associated with the common stock of a group of peer companies. The risk-free rate interest rates are based on the implied yield available on the date of grant on U.S. Treasury instruments with a remaining term equal to the expected term.
 
As of December 31, 2009, there was $221,112 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deductions from stock option exercises totaled $0 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Stockholders’ Equity and Agreements
 
The preferred stock is convertible to common stock in certain situations. The preferred stock has a liquidation preference and includes the right to receive dividends first if declared (noncumulative). As part of the sale of preferred stock in March 2009, the Company entered into a Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with each investor to purchase the preferred stock at $1.86 per share. Part of the agreement includes an Investors’ Rights Agreement, which allows certain investors the right to purchase their pro rata share of new securities.

Subsequent Events
 
In preparing these financial statements, management has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through October 15, 2010, the date the financial statements were available for issue.
 
In January 2010, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 under a subordinated convertible promissory note. The note requires monthly interest payments at 8.00% through December 31, 2010, 9.00% through December 31, 2011, and 10.00% through December 31, 2012 (with December 31, 2012 being the maturity date). The note is due the earlier of the maturity date, the closing of a change of control or Initial Public Offering or in the event of default and is subordinated to certain bank debt. The note is convertible to common or preferred shares of stock upon certain events at the option of the lender.
 
Associated with this debt agreement entered into in January 2010, the Company issued warrants to purchase 107,526 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the debt holder. These warrants were issued with an exercise price of $1.86 per share and expire in five years.
 
On August 3, 2010, the Company was acquired by National Research Corporation. In conjunction with the acquisition, all of the outstanding debt was repaid.

Outcome Concept Systems, Inc.
Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2010
 
 
(1)    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a)
Basis of Consolidation and Presentation
 
Outcome Concept Systems, Inc. (the Company or OCS) provides business intelligence and information solutions to health care providers, government organizations, and stakeholders in the health care industry.  The Company’s products combine software, data, and customized benchmarking services, which enable customers to fulfill regulatory requirements and improve clinical and financial performance.  The company operates from offices in Seattle, Washington and has customers throughout the United States.
 
All financial information contained herein is unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  
 
Information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto that are included elsewhere in this Form 8-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(b)
Variable Interest Entity
 
The office facility utilized by the Company is owned by Epic Property Management LLC (Epic), which is owned by the Company’s majority stockholders.  The Company’s majority stockholders have guaranteed the mortgage loan related to the building, and therefore, the Company is an implicit guarantor on the mortgage loan.  The amount outstanding on the mortgage loan at March 31, 2010 was $2,318 and is due on January 26, 2014.  The Company determined that the guarantee creates a variable interest in Epic and that the Company would be considered the primary beneficiary of Epic and has therefore consolidated this interest.  The carrying amount and classification of Epic’s assets at March 31, 2010 are as follows:
 
Current assets
  $ 12  
Property and equipment, net
    1,889  
 
 

 
 
(c)
Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are provided in amounts sufficient to give effect to temporary differences between financial and tax reporting.  A deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the expected tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse.  If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.
 
At March 31, 2010, $150,907 of unrecognized tax benefits would impact the Company’s provision for income taxes and effective rate if recognized.  The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.  There was $4,231 of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2010.
 
(d)
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Generally accepted accounting principles require the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values for stock awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled to employees and directors.   The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-option awards.  There were no new options granted in the three months ended March 31, 2010.  Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $30,745 and $30,745, respectively.  As of March 31, 2010, there was $467,406 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s plans, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
 
(e)
Comprehensive Loss
 
The Company’s comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and accumulated comprehensive loss at March 31, 2010 equaled its net loss and accumulated deficit, respectively.
 
(f) 
Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company believes that the carrying amounts of its financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, various debt agreements, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value.  All nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at their fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, including goodwill and investment, are measured at fair value in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).
 
 
(2)    Liquidity
 
At March 31, 2010, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $2.5 million. Furthermore, the Company did not comply with certain of its restrictive financial covenants for its debt obligations at March 31, 2010.  However, the acquisition of the Company in July 2010 described in Note 4 resulted in repayment of all debt obligations and therefore, the Company is no longer subject to these various conditions and covenants.
 

 
(3)  Investment
 
The Company has a 50% interest in Dentra Corp. (Dentra).  The Company has a management services agreement with Dentra to provide management services and certain facilities and assets to Dentra.  Amounts due under this management services agreement of $289,000 are recorded in the statement of operations as an offset to the related expense in operating expenses.  A summary of financial information for Dentra as of March 31, 2010 is as follows:

(4)  Debt Agreements
 
The Company had borrowings of $587,269 outstanding through a secured line-of-credit for $1,000,000 with a bank.  The debt agreement expires on December 15, 2010.  Borrowings incur interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 0.375%.  The agreement requires compliance with certain financial covenants.  The Company was not in compliance with all covenants and conditions of the agreement, however, the outstanding balance was repaid in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition described in Note (4).
 
The Company has $300,000 of borrowings under a short term bank loan, which accrues interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 0.75%.  The agreement requires five monthly payments of $13,206 including interest at a minimum rate of 5.25% beginning July 15, 2010 with the remaining amount due on December 15, 2010.  This note contains cross-default provisions with the secured line-of-credit.  All amounts outstanding were repaid in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition described in Note (4)
 
The line-of-credit and the short-term loan are both secured by accounts receivable, equipment, and the personal guarantees of the two majority stockholders of the Company.  The agreements are also collateralized by real property owned by Epic.
 
In January 2010, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 under a subordinated convertible promissory note.  The note requires monthly interest payments at 8% through December 31, 2010, 9% through December 31, 2011, and 10% through maturity at December 31, 2012.  The note is due the earlier of the maturity date, the closing of a change of control or Initial Public Offering or in the event of default and is subordinated to certain bank debt.  The note is convertible to common or preferred shares of stock upon certain events at the option of the lender.  Associated with this debt agreement, the Company issued warrants to purchase 107,526 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the debt holder.  These warrants were issued with an exercise price of $1.86 per share and expire in five years.
 

 
The Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance between the convertible debt and the detachable warrants based on their relative fair values.  Accordingly, the Company recognized the relative fair value of the warrants of $68,217 as a component of stockholders’ equity.  Additionally, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 interest expense of $5,685 has been accreted increasing the carrying value of the convertible debt to $937,468.   The convertible debt was repaid and the warrants were repurchased in connection with the Company’s acquisition described in Note (4).
 
Epic has $2,318,364 of borrowings outstanding on a long-term mortgage agreement used to purchase the office facility.  The borrowings incur interest at 7.08% and expires on January 26, 2014.
 
The Company has borrowings outstanding to stockholders of the Company which bear interest at 5.75%.  The borrowings are subordinated to bank debt.  All amounts outstanding were repaid in connection with the Company’s acquisition described in Note (4).
 
(4)  Subsequent Events
 
On August 3, 2010, the Company was acquired by National Research Corporation.  In conjunction with the acquisition, all of the outstanding debt was repaid.

(Amounts in thousands)

(1)
Acquisition of Outcome Concept Systems, Inc.
 
Effective August 3, 2010, National Research Corporation (NRC) acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock and stock rights of Outcome Concept Systems, Inc. (OCS).  Consideration paid by NRC at closing included a payment of cash of $16,310.  Included in the purchase price is $1,575 which was deposited in an escrow for indemnification, working capital adjustments and certain other potential claims or expenses following closing.
 
(2)
Allocation of Purchase Price
 
The preliminary allocation of purchase price is based upon management’s best estimate of the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities of OCS at the date of acquisition.  The purchase price is subject to further adjustment until all pertinent information regarding the assets, liabilities and deferred taxes are fully evaluated by the Company and independent valuations are complete.  Any adjustment is likely to impact the recorded amount of goodwill.  Adjustment to the pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet resulting from the net consideration of $16,310 issued in the acquisition of OCS is as follows:
 
 
(a)
Cash
 
An adjustment of $5,010 has been made to record the amount of the purchase price paid from NRC cash reserves.
 
 
(b)
Property and Equipment
 
An adjustment of $1,417 has been made to record fixed assets acquired for OCS to their estimated fair value of $1,722.
 
 
(c)
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
 
Net adjustments of $13,861 and $3,481 have been made to remove historical values and to record goodwill and intangible assets for OCS to their estimated fair value of $17,571.
