Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements that we make from time to time, including statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. These statements relate to anticipated future events, future results of operations or future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “could,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “goals,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “predicts,” “possible,” “potential,” “target,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Our operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect our results of operations and whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, without limitation, statements reflecting management’s expectations for future financial performance and operating expenditures (including our ability to continue as a going concern, to raise additional capital and to succeed in our future operations), expected growth, profitability and business outlook, increased sales and marketing expenses, and the expected results from the integration of our acquisitions.

Forward-looking statements are only predictions, are uncertain and involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our (or our industry’s) actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things, the unknown risks and uncertainties that we believe could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements as set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of the risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements, including without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to:

	●	our ability to manage our growth, including acquiring, partnering with, and effectively integrating acquired businesses into our infrastructure and avoiding legal exposure and liabilities associated with acquired companies and assets;

	●	our ability to retain our clients and revenue levels, including effectively migrating new clients and maintaining or growing the revenue levels of our new and existing clients;

	●	our ability to maintain operations in our offshore offices in a manner that continues to enable us to offer competitively priced products and services;

	●	our ability to keep pace with a rapidly changing healthcare industry;

	●	our ability to consistently achieve and maintain compliance with a myriad of federal, state, foreign, local, payor and industry requirements, regulations, rules, laws and contracts;

	●	our ability to maintain and protect the privacy of confidential and protected Company, client and patient information;

	●	our ability to develop new technologies, upgrade and adapt legacy and acquired technologies to work with evolving industry standards and third-party software platforms and technologies, and protect and enforce all of these and other intellectual property rights;

	●	our ability to attract and retain key officers and employees, and the continued involvement of Mahmud Haq as Executive Chairman and A. Hadi Chaudhry as Chief Executive Officer and President, all of which are critical to our ongoing operations, growing our business and integrating of our newly acquired businesses;

	●	our ability to comply with covenants contained in our credit agreement with our senior secured lender, Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company, and other future debt facilities;

	●	our ability to pay our monthly preferred dividends to the holders of our Series A and Series B preferred stock;

	●	our ability to compete with other companies developing products and selling services competitive with ours, and who may have greater resources and name recognition than we have;

	●	our ability to respond to the uncertainty resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it may have on our operations, the demand for our services, our projected results of operations, financial performance or other financial metrics or any of the foregoing risks and economic activity in general;

	●	our ability to keep and increase market acceptance of our products and services;

	●	changes in domestic and foreign business, market, financial, political and legal conditions; and

	●	other factors disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on our current expectations, beliefs and views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning future developments and their potential effects on our business. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments may cause our assessments to change. Except as required by law, we are under no duty to update or revise any of such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

You should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we currently expect. The forward-looking statements contained herein should not be relied upon as representing our assessments as of any date subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

AS OF AND FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023

AND 2022 (UNAUDITED)

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGINIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 8-03. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal and recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2023, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. When preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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 significantly from those estimates. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023.

Significant Accounting Policies — During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies, other than the adoption of ASU 2016-13 discussed below, from its disclosures in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP. The new impairment model requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur for most financial assets and certain other instruments. It will apply to all entities. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, entities will be required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. This may result in the earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which delays this standard’s effective date for SEC smaller reporting companies to the fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2022. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2023 using a modified retrospective adoption methodology, whereby the cumulative impact of all prior periods is recorded in accumulated deficit or other impacted balance sheet items upon adoption. The impact to the accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2023 for the allowance related to accounts receivable was a charge of approximately $186,000 and a corresponding increase to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements – Issue 2. The amendments in this update require that leasehold improvements associated with common control leases be: (1) amortized by the lessee over the useful life of the leasehold improvements to the common control group as long as the lessee controls the use of the underlying asset through a lease and (2) accounted for as a transfer between entities under common control through an adjustment to equity if, and when, the lessee no longer controls the use of the underlying asset. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2022, the 433,251 unvested equity RSUs and 1,353,489 unexercised warrants have been excluded from the above calculations as they were anti-dilutive. Vested RSUs, vested restricted shares and exercised warrants have been included in the above calculations.

5. DEBT

Bank Debt —The Company has a revolving line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”). The Company’s credit facility is a secured revolving line of credit where borrowings are based on a formula of 200% of repeatable revenue adjusted by an annualized attrition rate as defined in the credit agreement. During February 2023, the line of credit was increased to $25 million and the term was extended for two additional years. The financial covenants were also slightly modified for 2023 and subsequent years.

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was $10 million and $8 million, respectively, of borrowings under the credit facility. Interest on the revolving line of credit is currently charged at the prime rate plus 1.50%. There is also a fee of one-half of 1% annually for the unused portion of the credit line. The debt is secured by all of the Company’s domestic assets and 65% of the shares in its offshore subsidiaries. Future acquisitions are subject to approval by SVB.

In connection with the original SVB debt agreement, the Company paid SVB approximately $50,000 of fees upfront and issued warrants for SVB to purchase 125,000 shares of its common stock, and committed to pay an annual anniversary fee of $50,000 a year. Based on the terms in the original SVB credit agreement, these warrants had a strike price equal to $3.92. They had a five years exercise window and net exercise rights, and were valued at $3.12 per warrant. These warrants were exercised during 2022. As a result of the revision in the credit line in the third quarter of 2018, the Company paid approximately $50,000 of fees upfront and issued an additional 28,489 warrants, with a strike price equal to $5.26, a five-year exercise window and net exercise rights. The additional warrants were valued at $3.58 per warrant and expire in September 2023. The credit agreement contains various covenants and conditions governing the revolving line of credit including a current annual fee of $100,000. These covenants include a minimum level of adjusted EBITDA and a minimum liquidity ratio. At June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

During March 2023, SVB became a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company. The agreements that governed the former SVB relationship remain in place. There was no change to the terms of the credit agreement.

The Company maintains cash balances at SVB in excess of the FDIC insurance coverage limits. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of this financial institution to ensure its credit worthiness. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company held cash of approximately $75,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, in the name of its subsidiaries at banks in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The banking systems in these countries do not provide deposit insurance coverage. The Company has not experienced any losses on its cash accounts.

Vehicle Financing Notes — The Company financed certain vehicle purchases in the United States. The vehicle financing notes have six year terms and were issued at current market rates.

Insurance Financing — The Company finances certain insurance purchases over the term of the policy life. The interest rate charged is currently 4.55%.

6. LEASES

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. We have operating leases for office and temporary living space as well as for some office equipment. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current operating lease liability and non-current operating lease liability in our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company does not have any finance leases.

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which are derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to our bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates. We review our incremental borrowing rate on a quarterly basis.

Our lease terms include options to extend the lease when we believe that we may want the right to exercise that option. Leases with a term of less than 12 months are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheets. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Some leases include escalation clauses and termination options that are factored in the determination of the lease payments when appropriate.

If a lease is modified after the effective date, the operating lease ROU asset and liability are re-measured using the current incremental borrowing rate. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were approximately $11,000 and $163,000, respectively, of unoccupied lease charges for two of the Company’s facilities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were approximately $266,000 and $529,000, respectively, of unoccupied lease charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there was a gain on lease termination of approximately $105,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Miami office lease that we assumed in connection with an acquisition ended, and we entered into a new lease arrangement with the landlord for significantly less office space. Charges of approximately $71,000 were incurred as a result of vacating the former premises. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, a facility lease was terminated in conjunction with the Company ceasing its document storage services resulting in additional costs of approximately $197,000. This termination of lease resulted in additional costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, of approximately $115,000 and $161,000, respectively. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid approximately $27,000 to settle a claim regarding a lease termination in India. These amounts are included in net loss on lease terminations and unoccupied lease charges in the consolidated statements of operations.

Lease expense is included in direct operating costs, general and administrative expense, selling and marketing expense and research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations based on the nature of the expense. Our lease terms are determined taking into account lease renewal options, the Company’s anticipated operating plans and leases that are on a month-to-month basis. The Company also has some related party leases – see Note 8.

The components of lease expense were as follows:

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings — On December 9, 2022, an arbitrator rendered a decision in favor of MTBC Acquisition Corp. (“MAC”) and dismissed the claims brought against MAC by Randolph Pain Relief and Wellness Center (“RPRWC”), determining that RPRWC failed to prove any breach of the applicable billing services agreement and failed to prove that any alleged damages were due. The deadline for RPRWC to file a summary action in Superior Court of New Jersey seeking to overturn the arbitrator’s decision was April 5, 2023 and no summary action was filed by such deadline. As such, the arbitrator’s decision dismissing RPRWC’s claims is final.

From time to time, we may become involved in other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

8. RELATED PARTIES

The Company had sales to a related party, a physician who is the wife of the Executive Chairman. Revenues from this customer were approximately $31,000 and $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $50,000 and $11,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of both June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the accounts receivable balance due from this customer was approximately $10,000, and is included in accounts receivable - net in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company leases its corporate office in New Jersey, a temporary housing apartment for foreign visitors, a storage facility, its operations center in Bagh, Pakistan and an apartment for temporary housing in Dubai, the UAE, from the Executive Chairman. The related party rent expense for both the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was approximately $50,000, and was approximately $102,000 and $101,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and is included in direct operating costs, general and administrative expense, selling and marketing expense and research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company spent approximately $1.1 million and $432,000 to upgrade the related party leased facilities. Current assets-related party in the consolidated balance sheets includes security deposits related to the leases of the Company’s corporate offices in the amount of approximately $16,000 as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company also leases two facilities used for temporary housing from a U.S. employee for approximately $6,200 per month.

Included in the ROU asset at June 30, 2023 is approximately $346,000 applicable to the related party leases. Included in the current and non-current operating lease liability at June 30, 2023 is approximately $152,000 and $189,000, respectively, applicable to the related party leases.

Included in the ROU asset at December 31, 2022 is approximately $467,000 applicable to the related party leases. Included in the current and non-current operating lease liability at December 31, 2022 is approximately $158,000 and $301,000, respectively, applicable to the related party leases.

During June 2022, the Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with an entity owned and controlled by one of its former non-independent directors whereby that director received 10,000 shares of the Company’s 8.75% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) in exchange for assisting the Company to identify and acquire additional companies, including performing due diligence. In addition, the Company may make additional payments under the agreement for any successful acquisitions by the Company based on the purchase price of the transaction. No such additional payments were made in 2022. During February 2023, the agreement was amended and extended through December 2024 whereby the former director received 14,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in February 2023 and will receive an additional 14,000 shares in January 2024. All of the payments made were capitalized and are being amortized over the service period. The amortization is recorded as stock compensation in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations. All such shares of the Series B Preferred Stock are or will be issued in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. In addition to the extension of the consulting agreement, the amendment provides that any transaction fees due will be offset against the last two above payments before any amounts are due to that former director. There were no transaction fees through June 30, 2023.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company has the right to sell up to $35 million of its Series B Preferred Stock using its preferred stock at-the-market facility (“ATM”). The underwriter receives 3% of the gross proceeds. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold 59,773 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and received net proceeds of approximately $1.4 million under this ATM facility. The Company also has the right to sell up to $50 million of its common stock using a common stock ATM facility. The underwriters of the common stock ATM also receive 3% of the gross proceeds. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, no shares of common stock were issued under this ATM.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company sold 1,210,248 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and received net proceeds of approximately $27.9 million. On March 18, 2022, the Company used a portion of these proceeds to redeem 800,000 shares of the Company’s 11% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) for $25.00 per share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the redemption date.

10. REVENUE

Introduction

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. All revenue is recognized as our performance obligations are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer, and is the unit of account under ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue when the revenue cycle management services begin on the medical billing claims, which is generally upon receipt of the claim from the provider. For many services, the Company recognizes revenue as a percentage of the amount the customer collects on the medical billing claims. The Company’s software is utilized at the time the provider sees the patient, and the Company estimates the value of the consideration it will earn over the remaining contractual period as our services are provided and recognizes the fees over the term; this estimation involves predicting the amounts our clients will ultimately collect associated with the services they provided. Certain significant estimates, such as payment-to-charge ratios, effective billing rates and the estimated contractual payment periods are required to measure revenue cycle management revenue under the standard.

Most of our current contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation. For contracts where we provide multiple services, such as where we perform multiple ancillary services, each service represents its own performance obligation. The standalone selling prices are based on the contractual price for the service.

We apply the portfolio approach as permitted by ASC 606 as a practical expedient to contracts with similar characteristics and we use estimates and assumptions when accounting for those portfolios. Our contracts generally include standard commercial payment terms. We have no significant obligations for refunds, warranties or similar obligations and our revenue does not include taxes collected from our customers.

Disaggregation of Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We derive revenue from five primary sources: (1) technology-enabled business solutions, (2) professional services, (3) printing and mailing services, (4) group purchasing services and (5) medical practice management services.

The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATION OF REVENUE

	2023		2022		2023		2022
	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Healthcare IT:	($ in thousands)
Technology-enabled business solutions	$	19,620	$	23,589	$	39,115	$	46,831
Professional services		5,504		9,824		12,064		18,138
Printing and mailing services		687		458		1,400		921
Group purchasing services		174		158		360		292
Medical Practice Management:
Medical practice management services		3,377		3,199		6,424		6,387
Total	$	29,362	$	37,228	$	59,363	$	72,569
Revenues	$	29,362	$	37,228	$	59,363	$	72,569

Technology-enabled business solutions:

Revenue derived on an on-going basis from our technology-enabled solutions, which typically include revenue cycle management services, is billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers. The fee for our services often includes the ability to use our electronic health records (“EHR”) and practice management software as well as revenue cycle management (“RCM”) as part of the bundled fee.

Technology-assisted revenue cycle management services are the recurring process of submitting and following up on claims with health insurance companies in order for the healthcare providers to receive payment for the services they rendered. The Company typically invoices customers on a monthly basis based on the actual collections received by its customers and the agreed-upon rate in the sales contract. The fee for these services typically includes use of practice management software and related tools (on a SaaS basis), electronic health records (on a SaaS basis), medical billing services and use of mobile health solutions. We consider the services to be one performance obligation since the promises are not distinct in the context of the contract. The performance obligation consists of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers.

In many cases, our clients may terminate their agreements with 90 days’ notice without cause, thereby limiting the term in which we have enforceable rights and obligations, although this time period can vary between clients. Our payment terms are normally net 30 days. Although our contracts typically have stated terms of one or more years, under ASC 606 our contracts are considered month-to-month and accordingly, there is no financing component.

For the majority of our revenue cycle management contracts, the total transaction price is variable because our obligation is to process an unknown quantity of claims, as and when requested by our customers over the contract period. When a contract includes variable consideration, we evaluate the estimate of the variable consideration to determine whether the estimate needs to be constrained; therefore, we include variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Estimates to determine variable consideration such as payment-to-charge ratios, effective billing rates, and the estimated contractual payment periods are updated at each reporting date. Revenue is recognized over the performance period using the input method.

Our proprietary, cloud-based practice management application automates the labor-intensive workflow of a medical office in a unified and streamlined SaaS platform. The Company has a large number of clients who utilize the Company’s practice management software, electronic health records software, patient experience management solutions, business intelligence software and/or robotic process automation software on a SaaS basis, but who do not utilize the Company’s revenue cycle management services. SaaS fees may be fixed based on the number of providers, or may be variable.

Our digital health services, which began generating revenue in mid-2022, include chronic care management, where a care manager conducts remote visits with patients with one or more chronic conditions under the supervision of a physician who is our client. It also includes remote patient monitoring where our system monitors recordings from FDA-approved internet connected devices. These devices record patient trends and alerts the physician to changes which might trigger the need for additional follow-up visits. The performance obligation for chronic care management is satisfied at a point in time once the patient receives the services. The performance obligation for remote patient monitoring is satisfied over time as the patient receives the services. The revenue for these services for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $407,000 and $553,000, respectively.

The medical billing clearinghouse service takes claim information from customers, checks the claims for errors and sends this information electronically to insurance companies. The Company invoices customers on a monthly basis based on the number of claims submitted and the agreed-upon rate in the agreement. This service is provided to medical practices and providers to medical practices who are not revenue cycle management customers. The performance obligation is satisfied once the relevant submissions are completed.

Additional services such as coding and transcription are rendered in connection with the delivery of revenue cycle management and related medical services. The Company invoices customers monthly, based on the actual amount of services performed at the agreed-upon rate in the contract. These services are only offered to revenue cycle management customers. These services do not represent a material right because the services are optional to the customer and customers electing these services are charged the same price for those services as if they were on a standalone basis. Each individual coding or transcription transaction processed represents a performance obligation, which is satisfied over time as that individual service is rendered.

Professional services:

Our professional services include an extensive set of services including EHR vendor-agnostic optimization and activation, project management, IT transformation consulting, process improvement, training, education and staffing for large healthcare organizations including health systems and hospitals. The performance obligation is satisfied over time using the input method. The revenue is recorded on a monthly basis as the professional services are rendered.

Printing and mailing services:

The Company provides printing and mailing services for both revenue cycle management customers and a non- revenue cycle management customer, and invoices on a monthly basis based on the number of prints, the agreed-upon rate per print and the postage incurred. The performance obligation is satisfied once the printing and mailing is completed.

Group purchasing services:

The Company provides group purchasing services which enable medical providers to purchase various vaccines directly from selected pharmaceutical companies at a discounted price. Currently, there are approximately 4,000 medical providers who are members of the program. Revenue is recognized as the vaccine shipments are made to the medical providers. Fees from the pharmaceutical companies are paid either quarterly or annually and the Company adjusts its revenue accrual at the time of payment. The Company makes significant judgments regarding the variable consideration which we expect to be entitled to for the group purchasing services which includes the anticipated shipments to the members enrolled in the program, anticipated volumes of purchases made by the members, and the changes in the number of members. The amounts recorded are constrained by estimates of decreases in shipments and loss of members to avoid a significant revenue reversal in the subsequent period. The only performance obligation is to provide the pharmaceutical companies with the medical providers who want to become members in order to purchase vaccines. The performance obligation is satisfied once the medical provider agrees to purchase a specific quantity of vaccines and the medical provider’s information is forwarded to the vaccine suppliers. The Company records a contract asset for revenue earned and not paid as the ultimate payment is conditioned on achieving certain volume thresholds.

For all of the above revenue streams other than group purchasing services, revenue is recognized over time, which is approximately one month, which closely matches the point in time that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company. For the group purchasing services, revenue is recognized at a point in time. Each service is substantially the same and has the same periodic pattern of transfer to the customer. Each of the services provided above is considered a separate performance obligation.

Medical practice management services:

The Company also provides medical practice management services under long-term management service agreements to three medical practices. We provide the medical practices with the nurses, administrative support, facilities, supplies, equipment, marketing, RCM, accounting, and other non-clinical services needed to efficiently operate their practices. Revenue is recognized as the services are provided to the medical practices. Revenue recorded in the consolidated statements of operations represents the reimbursement of costs paid by the Company for the practices and the management fee earned each month for managing the practice. The management fee is based on either a fixed fee or a percentage of the net operating income.

The Company assumes all financial risk for the performance of the managed medical practices. Revenue is impacted by the amount of the costs incurred by the practices and their operating income. The gross billing of the practices is impacted by billing rates, changes in current procedural terminology code reimbursement and collection trends which in turn impacts the management fee that the Company is entitled to. Billing rates are reviewed at least annually and adjusted based on current insurer reimbursement practices. The performance obligation is satisfied as the management services are provided.

Our contracts for medical practice management services have approximately an additional 16 years remaining and are only cancellable under very limited circumstances. The Company receives a management fee each month for managing the day-to-day business operations of each medical group as a fixed fee or a percentage payment of the net operating income which is included in revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.

Our medical practice management services obligations consist of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers. Revenue is recognized over time, however for reporting and convenience purposes, the management fee is computed at each month-end.

Information about contract balances:

As of June 30, 2023, the estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to the remaining revenue cycle management performance obligations outstanding was approximately $4.5 million. We expect to recognize substantially all of the revenue for the remaining performance obligations over the next three months. Approximately $305,000 of the contract asset represents revenue earned, not paid, from the group purchasing services.

Amounts that we are entitled to collect under the applicable contract are recorded as accounts receivable. Invoicing is performed at the end of each month when the services have been provided. The contract asset includes our right to payment for services already transferred to a customer when the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time. For example, contracts for revenue cycle management services where we recognize revenue over time but do not have a contractual right to payment until the customer receives payment of their claim from the insurance provider. The contract asset also includes the revenue accrued, not received, for the group purchasing services.

Changes in the contract asset are recorded as adjustments to net revenue. The changes primarily result from providing services to revenue cycle management customers that result in additional consideration and are offset by our right to payment for services becoming unconditional and changes in the revenue accrued for the group purchasing services. The contract asset for our group purchasing services is reduced when we receive payments from vaccine manufacturers and is increased for revenue earned, not received. The opening and closing balances of the Company’s accounts receivable, contract asset and deferred revenue are as follows:

	Accounts Receivable - Net			Contract Asset			Deferred Revenue (current)			Deferred Revenue (long term)
	($ in thousands)
Balance as of January 1, 2023	$	14,773		$	4,399		$	1,386		$	342
(Decrease) increase, net		(2,755	)		435			(144	)		28
Balance as of June 30, 2023	$	12,018		$	4,834		$	1,242		$	370

Balance as of June 30, 2022	$	18,984		$	4,700		$	1,450		$	363

Deferred commissions:

Our sales incentive plans include commissions payable to employees and third parties at the time of initial contract execution that are capitalized as incremental costs to obtain a contract. The capitalized commissions are amortized over the period the related services are transferred. As we do not offer commissions on contract renewals, we have determined the amortization period to be the estimated client life, which is three years. Deferred commissions were approximately $590,000 and $762,000 at June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are included in the other assets amounts in the consolidated balance sheets.

Trade Accounts Receivable – Estimate of Credit Losses:

ASU 2016-13 requires the recognition of lifetime estimated credit losses expected to occur for trade accounts receivable. The guidance also requires we pool assets with similar risk characteristics and consider current economic conditions when estimating losses. The adoption of the ASU 2016-13 for trade accounts receivable was recorded as a charge to accumulated deficit of approximately $186,000 as of January 1, 2023.

At adoption, we segmented the accounts receivable population into pools based on their risk assessment. Risks related to trade accounts receivable are a customer’s inability to pay or bankruptcy. Each pool was defined by their internal credit assessment and business size. The pools are aligned with management’s review of financial performance. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, no adjustment to the pools was necessary.

We utilize a loss-rate method to measure the expected credit loss for each pool. The loss rate is calculated using a three-year lookback period of write-offs and adjustments, divided by the revenue for each pool by aging category, net of customer payments during that period. We consider current and future economic conditions, internal forecasts, customer collection experience and credit memos issued during the current period when assessing loss rates. We reviewed these factors and concluded that no adjustments should be made to the historical loss rate data for the current quarter. In addition, the Company uses specific account identification in determining the total allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are written off only after the Company has exhausted all collection efforts.

Changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for trade accounts receivable are presented in the table below:

11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

During 2022, an additional 1,000,000 shares of common stock and 200,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were added to the Company’s Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “A&R Plan”) for future issuance. As of June 30, 2023, 975,045 shares of common stock and 38,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are available for grant. Permissible awards include incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance stock and cash-settled awards and other stock-based awards in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors including unrestricted stock grants.

Certain equity-based RSU agreements contain a provision in which the units shall immediately vest and become converted into common shares at the rate of one share per RSU, immediately after a change in control, as defined in the award agreement.

Common and preferred stock RSUs

In February 2022, the Compensation Committee approved executive bonuses to be paid in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, with the number of shares and the amount based on specified criteria being achieved during the year 2022. These shares were awarded in early 2023 based on the achievement of the specified criteria.

In February 2023, the Compensation Committee approved executive bonuses to be paid in shares of Series B Preferred Stock with the number of shares and the amount based on specified criteria being achieved during the year 2023. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, an expense of approximately $252,000 and $375,000, respectively, was recorded for these bonuses based on the value of the shares at the grant date and recognized over the service period. The portion of the stock compensation expense to be used for the payment of withholding and payroll taxes is included in accrued compensation in the consolidated balance sheets. The balance of the stock compensation expense has been recorded as additional paid-in capital.

The following table summarizes the RSU transactions related to the common and preferred stock under the A&R Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

	Common Stock			Series A Preferred Stock			Series B Preferred Stock
Outstanding and unvested shares at January 1, 2023		645,475			-			80,462

Forfeited		(35,870	)		-			-
Outstanding and unvested shares at June 30, 2022		510,051			-			34,000

The liability for the 42,463 cash-settled awards and the liability for withheld taxes in connection with the equity awards was approximately $540,000 and $1.0 million at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in accrued compensation in the consolidated balance sheets. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, approximately $13,000 was paid in connection with the cash-settled awards. No amounts were paid in connection with cash-settled awards during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Stock-based compensation expense

The following table summarizes the components of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022:

Stock-based compensation included in the consolidated statements of operations:

Total stock-based compensation expense	$	1,502	$	1,184	$	2,574	$	2,071

12. INCOME TAXES

The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $82,000 comprised of a current tax expense of $44,000 and a deferred tax expense of $38,000. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $147,000 comprised of a current tax expense of $83,000 and a deferred tax expense of $64,000.

The income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $25,000 comprised of a current tax expense of $34,000 and a deferred tax benefit of $9,000. The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $89,000 comprised of a current tax expense of $62,000 and a deferred tax expense of $27,000.

The current income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 primarily relates to state minimum taxes and foreign income taxes. The deferred tax provision (benefit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 relates to the book and tax difference of amortization on indefinite-lived intangibles, primarily goodwill. To the extent allowable, the federal deferred tax provision has been offset by the indefinite life net operating loss.

During 2022, it was determined that for the states that follow the federal rules regarding indefinite life net operating losses, the offset to the state deferred tax liability was approximately $45,000. This amount was recorded as a deferred tax benefit during the second quarter of 2022. Subsequently, the state deferred tax liability has been offset against the state net operating loss to the extent allowable.

The Company has incurred cumulative losses, which make realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded against the federal and state deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

13. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair values of assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgement associated with the inputs used to measure their value in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. We held no Level 1 financial instruments at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets with inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Our Level 2 financial instruments include notes payable which are carried at cost and approximate fair value since the interest rates being charged approximate market rates.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. Our Level 3 instruments include the fair value of contingent consideration related to completed acquisitions. The fair value at June 30, 2022 is based on discounted cash flow analysis reflecting the likelihood of achieving specified performance measure or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, the passage of time and the associated discount rate. As of June 30, 2022, the contingent consideration was valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model. There was no contingent consideration recorded at June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022 as the earn-out period ended November 30, 2022 and no amounts were determined payable to the seller as they did not meet the contractual terms.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the contingent consideration measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

14. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman jointly serve as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), organize the Company, manage resource allocations and measure performance among two operating and reportable segments: (i) Healthcare IT and (ii) Medical Practice Management.

The Healthcare IT segment includes revenue cycle management, SaaS solutions and other services. The Medical Practice Management segment includes the management of three medical practices. Each segment is considered a reporting unit. The CODM evaluates the financial performance of the business units on the basis of revenue and direct operating costs excluding unallocated amounts that are mainly corporate overhead costs. Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023. The following table presents revenues, operating expenses and operating income (loss) by reportable segment:

COVID-19 Update

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we implemented a business continuity plan to respond quickly and provide ongoing guidance so that we could continue offering our clients uninterrupted products, services and support while also protecting our employees. We believe these actions have been successful and that the pandemic, and our responses, have not significantly affected our financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Refer to Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors, Risks Related to Our Business in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023 for further discussion of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

Financial Risks

The Company maintains cash balances at Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company in excess of the FDIC insurance coverage limits. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of this financial institution to ensure its credit worthiness.

These experts are supported by our highly educated and specialized offshore workforce of approximately 3,400 team members that are approximately 13% of the cost of comparably educated and skilled workers in the U.S. Our unique business model also allowed us to become a leading consolidator in our industry sector, gaining us a reputation for acquiring and positively transforming distressed competitors into profitable operations of CareCloud.

Our offshore operations in the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka together accounted for approximately 13% and 11% of total expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. A significant portion of those foreign expenses were personnel-related costs (approximately 79% and 80% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively). Because personnel-related costs are significantly lower in Pakistan and Sri Lanka than in the U.S. and many other offshore locations, we believe our offshore operations give us a competitive advantage over many industry participants. We are able to achieve significant cost reductions and leverage technology to reduce manual work and strategically transition a portion of the remaining manual tasks to our highly-specialized, cost-efficient team in the U.S., the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka.

Key Performance Measures

We consider numerous factors in assessing our performance. Key performance measures used by management, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, are non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe better enable management and investors to analyze and compare the underlying business results from period to period.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Moreover, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis, and we provide reconciliations from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share provide an alternative view of performance used by management and we believe that an investor’s understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these adjusted performance measures.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes the following elements which are included in GAAP net (loss) income:

	●	Income tax expense or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
	●	Interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest on principal payments, on our debt;
	●	Foreign currency gains and losses and other non-operating expenditures;
	●	Stock-based compensation expense includes cash-settled awards and the related taxes, based on changes in the stock price;
	●	Depreciation and amortization charges;
	●	Integration costs, such as severance amounts paid to employees from acquired businesses, and transaction costs, such as brokerage fees, pre-acquisition accounting costs and legal fees and exit costs related to contractual agreements;
	●	Net loss on lease terminations and unoccupied lease charges; and
	●	Change in contingent consideration.

For purposes of determining non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share, the Company used the number of common shares outstanding at the end of June 30, 2023 and 2022. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share was computed using an as-converted method and includes warrants that are in-the-money as of that date as well as outstanding unvested RSUs. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share do not take into account dividends paid on preferred stock. No tax effect has been provided in computing non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share as the Company has sufficient carry forward net operating losses to offset the applicable income taxes.

Key Metrics

In addition to the line items in our consolidated financial statements, we regularly review the following metrics. We believe information on these metrics is useful for investors to understand the underlying trends in our business.

Providers and Practices Served: As of both June 30, 2023 and 2022, we provided services to an estimated universe of approximately 40,000 providers (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services), representing approximately 2,600 independent medical practices and hospitals. In addition, we served approximately 150 clients who were not medical practices, but are service organizations who serve the healthcare community. The foregoing numbers include clients leveraging any of our products or services and are based in part upon estimates in cases where the precise number of practices or providers is unknown.

Sources of Revenue

Revenue: We primarily derive our revenues from subscription-based technology-enabled business solutions, reported in our Healthcare IT segment, which are typically billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers. This fee includes technology-enabled RCM, as well as the ability to use our EHR, practice management system and other software as part of the bundled fee. These solutions accounted for approximately 67% and 63% of our revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 66% and 65% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Other healthcare IT services, including printing and mailing operations, group purchasing and professional services, represented approximately 22% and 28% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and 23% and 26% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

We earned approximately 11% of our revenue from medical practice management services during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and approximately 9% during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. This revenue represents fees based on our actual costs plus a percentage of the operating profit and is reported in our Medical Practice Management segment.

Operating Expenses

Direct Operating Costs. Direct operating cost consists primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to our customers, claims processing costs, costs to operate the three managed practices, including facility lease costs, supplies, insurance and other direct costs related to our services. Costs associated with the implementation of new customers are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating costs do not include depreciation and amortization, which are broken out separately in the consolidated statements of operations.

Selling and Marketing Expense. Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of compensation and benefits, commissions, travel and advertising expenses.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel-related expense for administrative employees, including compensation, benefits, travel, facility lease costs and insurance, software license fees and outside professional fees.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related costs, software expense and third-party contractor costs.

Change in Contingent Consideration. Contingent consideration represents the portion of consideration payable to the sellers of some of our acquisitions, the amount of which is based on the achievement of defined performance measures contained in the purchase agreements. Contingent consideration is adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation expense is charged using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Amortization expense is charged on either an accelerated or on a straight-line basis over a period of three or four years for most intangible assets acquired in connection with acquisitions including those intangibles related to the group purchasing services. Amortization expense related to the value of our medical practice management clients is amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of twelve years.

Net Loss on Lease Terminations and Unoccupied Lease Charges. Net loss on lease terminations represents the write-off of leasehold improvements and gains or losses as the result of lease terminations. Unoccupied lease charges represent the portion of the lease and related costs for that portion of the space that is vacant and not being utilized by the Company. One of the leases that had unoccupied space ended in February 2023. The Company was able to turn back to the landlord one of the other unused facilities effective January 1, 2022.

Interest Income, Interest Expense and Other (Expense) Income. Interest income represents interest earned on temporary cash investments and late fees from customers. Interest expense consists primarily of interest costs related to our line of credit, term loans and the amortization of deferred financing costs. Other (expense) income results primarily from foreign currency transaction (losses)/gains.

Income Taxes. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Although the Company is forecasting a return to profitability, it incurred losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding future U.S. taxable income, which makes realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded against all deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements presented in this Report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Capitalized Software Costs:

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of internally-developed capitalized software in use was $17.6 million and $16.6 million, respectively. The increase in the capitalized software costs represents the continued investment in proprietary technology.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those described in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023.

Net Revenue. Net revenue of $29.4 million and $59.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, decreased by $7.9 million or 21% and $13.2 million or 18% from net revenue of $37.2 million and $72.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $19.6 million and $39.1 million relating to technology-enabled business solutions, $5.5 million and $12.1 million related to professional services and $3.4 million and $6.4 million for medical practice management services, respectively.

There was a $4.3 million and $6.1 million decrease in project-based professional services revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The 2023 revenue was also negatively impacted by two large accounts that had each been acquired prior to our beginning to serve them after a 2020 acquisition. They were each winding down at the time of our acquisition and transitioned to the systems of their acquirers during 2022. Revenue from these two customers for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $1.0 million and $4.2 million, respectively. Revenue from these customers for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $2.0 million, accounting for approximately $5.7 million of the decline in revenue. Revenue from these customers is expected to be approximately $0.5 million for the remainder of 2023. (Refer to Forward-Looking Statements disclosure on page 2 of this Form 10-Q.)

Direct Operating Costs. Direct operating costs of $17.5 million and $35.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, decreased by $4.3 million or 20% and $8.9 million or 20% compared to direct operating costs of $21.8 million and $44.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, salary costs decreased by $3.1 million and $6.0 million, outsourcing and processing costs decreased by $621,000 and $2.3 million and other costs such as medical supplies, vaccines, rent and consultancy fees decreased by $173,000 and $594,000, respectively. The decrease in the salary costs was due to the decrease in the Pakistan exchange rate, a decrease in the U.S. headcount and the redeployment of employees performing functions that were classified as direct operating costs due to lower revenue as well as functions classified as research and development expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Selling and Marketing Expense. Selling and marketing expense of $2.6 million and $5.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by $154,000 or 6% and $382,000 or 8% from selling and marketing expense of $2.4 million and $4.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The increase was the result of additional emphasis on sales and marketing activities.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense of $5.9 million and $11.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, decreased by $478,000 or 7% and $943,000 or 8% compared to general and administrative expense of $6.4 million and $12.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in salary costs of $558,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expense of $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by approximately $87,000 or 8% and $180,000 or 9% from research and development expense of $1.1 million and $2.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The increase was due to the redeployment of employees performing functions that were classified as direct operating costs to functions classified as research and development expense. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company capitalized approximately $4.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, of development costs in connection with its internal-use software.

Change in Contingent Consideration. There was no change in contingent consideration during the six months ended June 30, 2023 as the balance of contingent consideration was $0 at December 31, 2022. The change of $630,000 and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, reflected the estimated decrease in the fair value of the contingent consideration from the medSR acquisition.

Depreciation. Depreciation of $511,000 and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by $29,000 or 6% and $72,000 or 8% from the depreciation of $482,000 and $931,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively.

Amortization Expense. Amortization expense of $2.8 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by $376,000 or 15% and $431,000 or 9% from amortization expense of $2.5 million and $4.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in amortization expense was due to placing certain internal-use software into production and commencing amortization on that balance.

Net Loss on Lease Terminations and Unoccupied Lease Charges. Net loss on lease terminations represents the write-off of leasehold improvements and gains or losses as the result of lease terminations. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Miami office lease that we assumed in connection with an acquisition ended and we entered into a new lease arrangement with the landlord for significantly less space. Charges of $71,000 were incurred as a result of vacating the former premises. During the year ended December 31, 2022, a facility lease was terminated in conjunction with the Company ceasing its document storage services resulting in additional costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, of $115,000 and $161,000, respectively. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company paid $27,000 to settle a claim regarding a lease termination in India. Unoccupied lease charges represent the portion of the lease and related costs for that portion of the space that is vacant and not being utilized by the Company. The Company was able to turn back to the landlord one of the unused facilities effective January 1, 2022. Unoccupied lease charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were $11,000 and $163,000, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were $266,000 and $529,000, respectively, of unoccupied lease charges.

Interest Income. Interest income of $52,000 and $72,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by $49,000 and $64,000 from interest income of $3,000 and $8,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The interest income represents interest earned on temporary cash investments and late fees from customers.

Interest Expense. Interest expense of $327,000 and $477,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, increased by $220,000 and $270,000 from interest expense of $107,000 and $207,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due to increased use of the line of credit. Interest expense includes the amortization of deferred financing costs, which was $80,000 and $61,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Other (Expense) Income – net. Other expense – net was $186,000 and $169,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to other income – net of $112,000 and $195,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Other expense or income primarily represents foreign currency transaction losses or gains. These transaction losses or gains result from revaluing intercompany accounts which are denominated in U.S. dollars that represent amounts payable/receivable between the entities. Whenever the exchange rate varies, the losses or gains are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Tax Provision. The provision for income taxes was $82,000 and $147,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, compared to the provision for income taxes of $25,000 and $89,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. As a result of the Company having certain net operating losses with an indefinite life under the current federal tax rules, the federal deferred tax liability was offset against the federal net operating loss to the extent allowable in 2023 and 2022. During 2022, it was determined that for the states that follow the federal rules regarding indefinite life net operating losses, the offset to the state deferred tax liability was $45,000. This amount was recorded during the second quarter of 2022. Subsequently, the state deferred tax liability has been offset against state net operating losses to the extent allowable.

The current income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $44,000 and $83,000, respectively, and includes state minimum taxes and foreign income taxes. The Company has incurred cumulative losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding future U.S. taxable income, which makes realization of a deferred tax losses difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded against all deferred tax assets at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had total cash of $7.7 million and net working capital of $8.2 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2023, cash provided by operations was $6.4 million offset by cash used in investing and financing activities of $7.1 million, resulting in a decrease in cash of $0.5 million for the three month period, after accounting for the effect of $0.2 million of exchange rate changes.

The Company is currently looking at various ways to increase its revenue through organic growth via its current salesforce, which would generate additional gross margin with no change to operating expenses. A number of clients have signed up for the new CareCloud Wellness offering, and as this volume ramps up, it will generate additional margin. There is also significant effort being expended in increasing the professional services business, where clients are charged “cost-plus,” generating additional margin. Concurrently, the Company is reviewing its expenses and capital expenditures and has begun and will continue to reduce spending in non-critical areas, to reduce cash usage even without additional revenue.

Additional funding, if necessary, could come from the sale of the Company’s three public securities, i.e., sales of its common stock or one or both of its two series of Nasdaq-listed preferred stock. There are active “at-the-market” facilities to sell common stock and Series B preferred stock, and the Company can sell shares utilizing its existing shelf registration facility. Further, additional capital could be obtained from the Company’s credit line since the amount drawn is less than the borrowing base and the Company is in compliance with all covenants. Accordingly, we believe our cash on hand, our cash flows from operations and our ability to raise capital, if necessary, will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next 12 months and beyond.

The Company has a revolving line of credit, and as of June 30, 2023, there was $10 million outstanding. As of June 30, 2023, the unused borrowing base was approximately $4.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold 59,773 shares of 8.75% Series B Preferred Stock and raised $1.4 million in net proceeds after fees and expenses.

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.4 million and $8.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The decrease in the net income was partially offset by the change in accounts receivable which decreased by $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with an increase of $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Accounts payable, accrued compensation and accrued expenses decreased by $3.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with a decrease of $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 framework) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023 as required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2023, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and l5d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

See discussion of legal proceedings in “Note 7, Commitments And Contingencies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report, which is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I—Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2023, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, cash flows and/or future results.

We Maintain Our Cash at Financial Institutions, Often in Balances That Exceed Federally Insured Limits.

The financial markets recently have encountered volatility associated with concerns about the balance sheets of banks, especially small and regional banks who may have significant losses associated with investments that make it difficult to fund demands to withdraw deposits and other liquidity needs. Although the federal government has announced measures to assist these banks and protect depositors, some banks have already been impacted and others may be materially and adversely impacted. Our business is dependent on bank relationships and we are proactively monitoring the financial health of such bank relationships. Continued strain on the banking system may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
