NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND BUSINESS PRESENTATION

HealthLynked Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 4, 2014. On September 2, 2014, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada setting the total number of authorized shares at 250,000,000 shares, which included up to 230,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock. On February 5, 2018, the Company filed an Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares.

We currently operate in four distinct divisions: the Health Services Division, the Digital Healthcare Division, the ACO/MSO (Accountable Care Organization / Managed Service Organization) Division, and the Medical Distribution Division. The Health Services division is comprised of the operations of (i) Naples Women’s Center (“NWC”), a multi-specialty medical group including OB/GYN (both Obstetrics and Gynecology) and General Practice, (ii) Naples Center for Functional Medicine (“NCFM”), a Functional Medical Practice engaged in improving the health of its patients through individualized and integrative health care, and (iii) Bridging the Gap Physical Therapy (“BTG”), a physical therapy practice in Bonita Springs, FL that provides hands-on functional manual therapy techniques to speed patients’ recovery and manage pain without pain medication or surgery. The Digital Healthcare division develops and operates an online personal medical information and record archive system, the “HealthLynked Network,” which enables patients and doctors to keep track of medical information via the Internet in a cloud-based system. The ACO/MSO Division is comprised of the operations of Cura Health Management LLC (“CHM”) and its subsidiary ACO Health Partners LLC (“AHP”), which were acquired by the Company on May 18, 2020. CHM and AHP operate an Accountable Care Organization (“ACO”) and Managed Service Organization (“MSO”) that assists physician practices in providing coordinated and more efficient care to patients via the Medicare Shared Savings Program (“MSSP”) as administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (the “CMS”), which rewards providers for efficiency in patient care. The Medical Distribution Division is comprised of the operations of MedOffice Direct LLC (“MOD”), a virtual distributor of discounted medical supplies selling to both consumers and medical practices throughout the United States acquired by the Company on October 19, 2020.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments including normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which are included in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2022.

On a consolidated basis, the Company’s operations are comprised of the parent company, HealthLynked Corp., and its six subsidiaries: NWC, NCFM, BTG, CHM, AHP and MOD. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation. In addition, certain amounts in the prior periods’ consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions about fair valuation of acquired intangible assets, cash flow and fair value assumptions associated with measurements of contingent acquisition consideration and impairment of intangible assets and goodwill, valuation of inventory, collection of accounts receivable, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, borrowing rate consideration for right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets including related lease liability and useful life of fixed assets.

Revenue Recognition

Patient service revenue

Patient service revenue is reported at the amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for providing patient care. These amounts are due from patients and third-party payors (including health insurers and government programs) and include variable consideration for retroactive revenue adjustments due to settlement of audits, reviews, and investigations. Generally, the Company bills patients and third-party payors within days after the services are performed and/or the patient is discharged from the facility. Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

Performance obligations are determined based on the nature of the services provided by the Company. Revenue for performance obligations satisfied over time is recognized based on actual charges incurred in relation to total expected charges. The Company believes that this method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of services over the term of the performance obligation based on the inputs needed to satisfy the obligation. Revenue for performance obligations satisfied at a point in time is recognized when goods or services are provided, and the Company does not believe it is required to provide additional goods or services to the patient.

The Company determines the transaction price based on standard charges for goods and services provided, reduced by contractual adjustments provided to third-party payors, discounts provided to uninsured patients in accordance with the Company’s policy, and/or implicit price concessions provided to uninsured patients. The Company determines its estimates of contractual adjustments and discounts based on contractual agreements, its discount policies, and historical experience. The Company determines its estimate of implicit price concessions based on its historical collection experience with this class of patients.

Agreements with third-party payors typically provide for payments at amounts less than established charges. A summary of the payment arrangements with major third-party payors follows:

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Laws and regulations concerning government programs, including Medicare and Medicaid, are complex and subject to varying interpretation. As a result of investigations by governmental agencies, various health care organizations have received requests for information and notices regarding alleged noncompliance with those laws and regulations, which, in some instances, have resulted in organizations entering into significant settlement agreements. Compliance with such laws and regulations may also be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action, including fines, penalties, and potential exclusion from the related programs. There can be no assurance that regulatory authorities will not challenge the Company’s compliance with these laws and regulations, and it is not possible to determine the impact, if any, such claims or penalties would have upon the Company. In addition, the contracts the Company has with commercial payors also provide for retroactive audit and review of claims.

Settlements with third-party payors for retroactive adjustments due to audits, reviews or investigations are considered variable consideration and are included in the determination of the estimated transaction price for providing patient care. These settlements are estimated based on the terms of the payment agreement with the payor, correspondence from the payor and the Company’s historical settlement activity, including an assessment to ensure that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the retroactive adjustment is subsequently resolved. Estimated settlements are adjusted in future periods as adjustments become known, or as years are settled or are no longer subject to such audits, reviews, and investigations.

The Company also provides services to uninsured patients, and offers those uninsured patients a discount, either by policy or law, from standard charges. The Company estimates the transaction price for patients with deductibles and coinsurance and from those who are uninsured based on historical experience and current market conditions. The initial estimate of the transaction price is determined by reducing the standard charge by any contractual adjustments, discounts, and implicit price concessions. Subsequent changes to the estimate of the transaction price are generally recorded as adjustments to patient service revenue in the period of the change. Patient services provided by NCFM and BTG are provided on a cash basis and not submitted through third party insurance providers. Contract liabilities related to prepaid BTG patient service revenue were $22,461 and $42,530 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Medicare Shared Savings Revenue

The Company earns Medicare shared savings revenue based on performance of the population of patient lives for which it is accountable as an ACO against benchmarks established by the MSSP. Because the MSSP, which was formed in 2012, is relatively new and has limited historical experience, the Company cannot accurately predict the amount of shared savings that will be determined by CMS. Such amounts are determined annually when the Company is notified by CMS of the amount of shared savings earned. Accordingly, the Company recognizes Medicare shared savings revenue in the period in which the CMS notifies the Company of the exact amount of shared savings to be paid, which historically has occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30 for the program year ended December 31 of the previous year. Based on the ACO operating agreements, the Company bears all costs of the ACO operations until revenue is recognized. At that point, the Company shares in up to 100% of the revenue to recover its costs incurred. Because of the timing of recognition of Medicare shared savings revenue, no Medicare shared savings revenue was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Consulting and Event Revenue

Also pursuant to ASC 606, the Company recognizes service revenue as services are provided, with any unearned but paid amounts recorded as a contract liability at each balance sheet date. Contract liabilities related to consulting revenue were $-0- and $25,000 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Event revenue, comprised of admission fees for summit events, is recognized when an event is held.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Product Revenue

Revenue is derived from the distribution of medical products that are sourced from a third party. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when title transfers to customers and the Company has no further obligation to provide services related to such products, which occurs when the product ships. The Company is the principal in its revenue transactions and as a result revenue is recorded on a gross basis. The Company has determined that it controls the ability to direct the use of the product provided prior to transfer to a customer, is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the product to its customer, has discretion in establishing prices, and ultimately controls the transfer of the product to the customer. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recorded in revenue. Contract liabilities related to product revenue were $10,887 and $5,308 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. There were no contract assets as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

Sales are made inclusive of sales tax, where such sales tax is applicable. Sales tax is applicable on sales made in the state of Florida, where the Company has physical nexus. The Company has determined that it does not have economic nexus in any other states. The Company does not sell products outside of the United States.

The Company maintains a return policy that allows customers to return a product within a specified period of time prior to and subsequent to the expiration date of the product. The Company analyzes the need for a product return allowance at the end of each period based on eligible products. Product return allowance was $9,526 and $14,834 and as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities represent payments from customers for consulting services, patient services and medical products that precede the Company’s service or product fulfillment performance obligation. The Company’s contract liabilities balance was $33,348 and $72,838 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Provider shared savings expense

Provider shared savings expense represents payments made to the ACO’s participating providers. The pool of provider shared savings expense paid to all participating providers, as well as the amounts paid to each individual participating provider from the pool, is determined by ACO management. Shared Savings expense is recognized in the period in which the size of the payment pool is determined, which typically corresponds to the period in which the shared saving payment is received from CMS and shared savings revenue is recognized. This typically occurs in the second half of the year following the completion of the program year. Because of the timing of recognition of Medicare shared savings revenue, there was no Medicare shared savings revenue or related provider shared savings expense recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $1,666,580 and $2,957,040 in excess of the FDIC insured limit, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

Trade receivables are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past collectability of the insurance companies, government agencies, and customers’ accounts receivable during the related period which generally approximates 48% of total billings. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at this net amount. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s gross patient services accounts receivable were $174,493 and $193,363, respectively, and net patient services accounts receivable were $76,890 and $86,287, respectively, based upon net reporting of accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance of doubtful accounts was $13,972 and $13,972, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Leases

Upon transition under ASU 2016-02, the Company elected the suite of practical expedients as a package applied to all of its leases, including (i) not reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) not reassessing the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) not reassessing initial direct costs for any existing leases. For new leases, the Company will determine if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Leases are included as ROU assets within other assets and ROU liabilities within accrued expenses and other liabilities and within other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of 2019. See Note 7 for more complete details on balances as of the reporting periods presented herein. The adoption had no material impact on cash provided by or used in operating, investing or financing activities on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows.

Inventory

Inventory consisting of supplements, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Outdated inventory is directly charged to cost of goods sold.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is recognized as the excess cost of an acquired entity over the net amount assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value.

The Company recognizes an acquired intangible apart from goodwill whenever the intangible arises from contractual or other legal rights, or whenever it can be separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Such intangibles are amortized over their estimated useful lives unless the estimated useful life is determined to be indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are being amortized primarily over useful lives of five years. The straight-line method of amortization is used as it has been determined to approximate the use pattern of the assets. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible that is subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

The Company also maintains intangible assets with indefinite lives, which are not amortized. These intangibles are tested for impairment on an annual basis and more often if circumstances require. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of these assets is less than their carrying value. No impairment charges were recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to a concentration of credit risk are cash and accounts receivable. There are no patients/customers that represent 10% or more of the Company’s revenue or accounts receivable. Generally, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are in checking accounts. The Company relies on a sole supplier for the fulfillment of all of its product sales made through MOD.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. For consolidated financial statement purposes, property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 5 to 7 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.

MARCH 31, 2022

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Convertible Notes

Convertible notes are regarded as compound instruments, consisting of a liability component and an equity component. The component parts of compound instruments are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for a similar non-convertible instrument. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date. The equity component is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized as additional paid-in capital and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. After initial measurement, they are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Convertible notes for which the maturity date has been extended and that qualify for debt extinguishment treatment are recorded at fair value on the extinguishment date and then revalued at the end of each reporting period, with the change recorded to the statement of operations under “Change in Fair Value of Debt.”

Government Notes Payable

During 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries received loans under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”). The PPP loans, administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”), were issued under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act. Pursuant to the terms of the PPP, principal amounts may be forgiven if loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, including costs such as payroll, benefits, employer payroll taxes, rent and utilities. The Company accounts for forgiveness of government loans pursuant to FASB ASC 470, “Debt,” (“ASC 470”). Pursuant to ASC 470, loan forgiveness is recognized in earnings as a gain on extinguishment of debt when the debt is legally released by the lender.

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants. In determining fair value, the accounting standards have established a three-level hierarchy that distinguishes between (i) market data obtained or developed from independent sources (i.e., observable data inputs) and (ii) a reporting entity’s own data and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (i.e., unobservable data inputs). Financial assets and financial liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified in one of the following categories, in order of priority of observability and objectivity of pricing inputs:

The fair value measurement level for an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

The Company utilizes a binomial lattice option pricing model to estimate the fair value of options, warrants, beneficial conversion features and other Level 3 financial assets and liabilities. The Company believes that the binomial lattice model results in the best estimate of fair value because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including the underlying price, exercise price, term, volatility, and risk-free interest-rate) necessary to fairly value these instruments and, unlike less sophisticated models like the Black-Scholes model, it also accommodates assumptions regarding investor exercise behavior and other market conditions that market participants would likely consider in negotiating the transfer of such an instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and nonemployees under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company uses a binomial lattice pricing model to estimate the fair value of options and warrants granted.

Income Taxes

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and are considered immaterial. No income tax has been provided for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, since the Company has sustained a loss for both periods. Due to the uncertainty of the utilization and recoverability of the loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets, management has determined a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets, since it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities is their cost, which may differ from fair value. The carrying value of cash held as demand deposits, money market and certificates of deposit, marketable investments, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and derivative financial instruments approximated their fair value.

Deemed Dividend

The Company incurs a deemed dividend on Series B Convertible Preferred Voting Stock (the “Series B Preferred”). As the intrinsic price per share of the Series B Preferred was less than the deemed fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance of the Series B Preferred, the Series B Preferred contains a beneficial conversion feature as described in FASB ASC 470-20, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” The difference in the stated conversion price and estimated fair value of the common stock is accounted for as a beneficial conversion feature and affects income or loss available to common stockholders for purposes of earnings per share available to common stockholders. The Company incurs further deemed dividends on certain of its warrants containing a down round provision equal to the difference in fair value of the warrants before and after the triggering of the down round adjustment.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Net Loss per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company reported a net loss and excluded all outstanding stock options, warrants and other dilutive securities from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, potentially dilutive securities were comprised of (i) 59,366,992 and 59,796,992 warrants outstanding, respectively, (ii) 3,306,250 and 3,456,250 stock options outstanding, respectively, (iii) 232,036 and 302,050 unissued shares subject to future vesting requirements granted pursuant to the Company’s Employee Incentive Plan, and (iv) up to 13,750,000 and 13,750,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Series B Preferred.

Common stock awards

The Company grants common stock awards to non-employees in exchange for services provided. The Company measures the fair value of these awards using the fair value of the services provided or the fair value of the awards granted, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value measurement date of these awards is generally the date the performance of services is complete. The fair value of the awards is recognized on a straight-line basis as services are rendered. The share-based payments related to common stock awards for the settlement of services provided by non-employees is recorded on the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss in the same manner and charged to the same account as if such settlements had been made in cash. From time to time, the Company also issues stock awards settleable in a variable number of common shares. Such awards are classified as liabilities until such time as the number of shares underlying the grant is determinable.

Warrants

In connection with certain financing, consulting and collaboration arrangements, the Company has issued warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards. The Company measures the fair value of the awards using the Black-Scholes pricing model as of the measurement date. The Company uses a binomial lattice pricing model to estimate the fair value of compensation options and warrants. Warrants issued in conjunction with the issuance of common stock are initially recorded at fair value as a reduction in additional paid-in capital of the common stock issued. All other warrants are recorded at fair value as expense over the requisite service period, or at the date of issuance, if there is not a service period. Certain of the Company’s warrants include a so-called down round provision. The Company accounts for such provisions pursuant to ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and Derivatives and Hedging, which calls for the recognition of a deemed dividend in the amount of the incremental fair value of the warrant due to the down round when triggered, warrants granted in connection with ongoing arrangements are more fully described in Note 13, Shareholders’ Equity.

Business Segments

The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach designates the internal organization used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. Using the management approach, the Company determined that it has four operating segments: Health Services (multi-specialty medical group including the NWC OB/GYN practice, the NCFM practice acquired in April 2019 and the BTG physical therapy practice launched in 2020), Digital Healthcare (develops and markets the “HealthLynked Network,” an online personal medical information and record archive system), ACO/MSO (comprised of the ACO/MSO business acquired with CHM in May 2020, which assists physician practices in providing coordinated and more efficient care to patients via the MSSP), and Medical Distribution (comprised of the operations of MOD, a virtual distributor of discounted medical supplies selling to both consumers and medical practices acquired by the Company on October 19, 2020).

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”: The amendments in this update are to clarify, correct errors in, or make minor improvements to a variety of ASC topics. The changes in ASU 2020-03 are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practices. The ASU improves various financial instrument topics in the Codification to increase stakeholder awareness of the amendments and to expedite the improvement process by making the Codification easier to understand and easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) related to the measurement and disclosure requirements for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The pronouncement simplifies and adds disclosure requirements for the accounting and measurement of convertible instruments and the settlement assessment for contracts in an entity’s own equity. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021 and early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued guidance which requires companies to apply Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. Public entities must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact and timing of adoption of this guidance.

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: (1) exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; (2) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and (3) exceptions in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. ASU No. 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard in the year ended December 31, 2021. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2021-04 clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The ASU provides guidance to clarify whether an issuer should account for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as (1) an adjustment to equity and, if so, the related earnings per share effects, if any, or (2) an expense and, if so, the manner and pattern of recognition. ASU 2021-04 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted this standard for the year ended December 31, 2022. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

No other new accounting pronouncements were issued or became effective in the period that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3 – LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS

Liquidity and Going Concern

During the second quarter of 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This update provided U.S. GAAP guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures. Under this standard, the Company is required to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern each reporting period, including interim periods. In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after the Company’s financial statements were issued (May 16, 2022). Management considered the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and the Company’s obligations due before May 16, 2023.

The Company is subject to a number of risks, including uncertainty related to product development and generation of revenues and positive cash flow from its Digital Healthcare division and a dependence on outside sources of capital. The attainment of profitable operations is dependent on future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill the Company’s growth and operating activities and generating a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.

The Company has experienced net losses and cash outflows from operating activities since inception. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had cash balances of $1,926,714, working capital of $503,527 and an accumulated deficit of $33,373,312. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had a net loss of $1,168,123, net cash used by operating activities of $1,342,918, and no cash provided by financing activities. The Company expects to continue to incur net losses and have significant cash outflows for at least the next 12 months.

Management has evaluated the significance of the conditions described above in relation to the Company’s ability to meet its obligations and concluded that, without additional funding, the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations within one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

On April 20, 2021, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on form S-3 that was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2021 (the “Shelf Registration”). The Shelf Registration registered for resale up to $50,000,000 of the Company’s common stock. During August 2021, the Company sold 3,703,704 common shares and 1,851,852 five-year warrants with an exercise price of $0.65 to an institutional investor at an offering price of $0.54 per share pursuant to the Shelf Registration, generating gross proceeds of $2,000,000. The Company may still make sales of common stock up to an additional $48,000,000 under the Shelf Registration. Management intends to alleviate the conditions described above by raising additional capital from the Shelf Registration. However, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful. The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing in the debt and equity capital markets is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, the Company’s performance and investor sentiment with respect to the Company and its industry.

Without raising additional capital, either via the Shelf Registration or from other sources, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through May 16, 2023. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of presentation contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

COVID-19

A novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, that was first identified in China in December 2019, has surfaced in several regions across the world and resulted in travel restrictions and business slowdowns or shutdowns in affected areas. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a pandemic. The outbreak of the pandemic is materially adversely affecting the Company’s employees, patients, communities and business operations, as well as the U.S. economy and financial markets. The further spread of COVID-19, and the requirement to take action to limit the spread of the illness, may impact our ability to carry out our business as usual and may materially adversely impact global economic conditions, our business and financial condition, including our potential to conduct financings on terms acceptable to us, if at all. The extent to which COVID-19 may impact our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions and social distancing in the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions and the effectiveness of actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease. In response to COVID-19, the Company implemented additional safety measures in its patient services locations and its corporate headquarters.

NOTE 11 – GOVERNMENT AND VENDOR NOTES PAYABLE

During May and June 2020, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries received an aggregate of $621,069 in loans under the PPP. The Company also acquired a PPP loan in the MOD acquisition with an inception date of April 3, 2020 and a face value of $11,757. The PPP loans, administered by SBA, were issued under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, also known as the CARES Act. The loans bore interest at 1% per annum and were scheduled to mature in May and June 2022. Principal and interest payments were deferred for the first nine months of the loans. Pursuant to the terms of the PPP, principal amounts may be forgiven if loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, including costs such as payroll, benefits, employer payroll taxes, rent and utilities. The entirety of the PPP loans outstanding, comprised of $632,826 principal and $6,503 accrued interest, was forgiven in May 2021.

During June, July and August 2020, the Company and its subsidiaries received an aggregate of $450,000 in Disaster Relief Loans from the SBA. The loans bear interest at 3.75% per annum and mature 30 years from issuance. Mandatory principal and interest payments were originally scheduled to begin 12 months from the inception date of each loan and were subsequently extended by the SBA until 30 months from the inception date. Installment payments are now scheduled to begin in December 2022.

In connection with the October 19, 2020 acquisition of MOD, the Company acquired a note payable to MOD’s primary product vendor with a remaining principal balance of $79,002 as of the acquisition date and $51,109 as of December 31, 2020. The vendor note was paid in full during the first quarter of 2021.

Interest accrued on government and vendor notes payable as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $28,942 and $24,723, respectively. Interest expense on the loans was $4,219 and $7,605 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTE 12 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

The Company had no convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

On January 6, 2021, the holder of the Company’s four remaining fixed rate convertible promissory notes with a face value of $1,038,500 – comprised of a $550,000 6% fixed convertible secured promissory note dated July 7, 2016 (the “$550k Note”), a $50,000 10% fixed convertible commitment fee promissory note dated July 7, 2016 (the “$50k Note”), $81,000 of principal remaining on a $111,000 10% fixed convertible secured promissory note dated May 22, 2017 (the “$111k Note”), and a $357,500 10% fixed convertible note dated April 15, 2019 (the “$357.5k Note” and together with the $550k Note, the $50k Note and the $111k Note, the “Remaining Notes”) – agreed to extend the maturity date on the Remaining Notes to January 14, 2021. In exchange for the extension, the Company agreed to extend the expiration date of 3,508,333 existing warrants held by the holder (the “Extended Warrants”) from dates between July 2021 and March 2022 until March 2023. Because the fair value of consideration issued was greater than 10% of the present value of the remaining cash flows under the modified Remaining Notes, the transaction was treated as a debt extinguishment and reissuance of new debt instruments pursuant to the guidance of ASC 470-50. A loss on debt extinguishment was recorded in the amount of $126,502 in the year ended December 31, 2021, equal to the incremental fair value of the Extended Warrants before and after the modification.

On January 14, 2021, the Company and the holder of the Remaining Notes entered into a series of agreements pursuant to which (i) the holder agreed to convert the full face value of $1,038,500 and $317,096 of accrued interest on the Remaining Notes into 13,538,494 shares of common stock pursuant to the original conversion terms of the underlying notes, (ii) the holder agreed to a 180-day leak out provision, whereby, from and after January 14, 2021, it may not sell in shares of the Company’s common stock in excess of 5% of the Company’s daily trading volume for the first 90 days and 10% of the Company’s daily volume for the next 90 days, subject to certain exceptions, (iii) the holder agreed to release all security interests and share reserves related to the Remaining Notes, and (iv) the Company issued to the holder a new five-year warrant to purchase 13,538,494 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. In connection with the conversion, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $5,463,492 in the three months ended March 31, 2021, representing the excess of the fair value of the shares and warrant issued at conversion over the carrying value of the host instrument and accrued interest.

Prior to conversion, the Remaining Notes were carried at fair value and revalued at each period end, with changes to fair value recorded to the statement of operations under “Change in Fair Value of Debt.” The changes in fair value during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $-0- and $19,246, respectively.

Interest expense on convertible notes outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $-0- and $4,372, respectively.

The 2016 EIP is governed by the Company’s board, or a committee that may be appointed by the board in the future. The 2016 EIP expired during 2021 but allows for the prospective issuance of shares of common stock subject to vesting of awards made prior to expiration of the 2016 EIP.

On September 9, 2021, the Company adopted the 2021 Employee Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 EIP” and, together with the 2016 EIP, the “EIPs”) for the purpose of having equity awards available to allow for equity participation by its employees.

Amounts recognized in the financial statements with respect to the EIPs in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Stock Options  

Stock options granted under the EIPs typically vest over a period of three to four years or based on achievement of Company and individual performance goals. The following table summarizes stock option activity as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

As of March 31, 2022, there was $108,313 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to options granted under the EIPs. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years.

The total fair value of options vested during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $2,627 and $46,746, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of share options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $388 and $9,725, respectively.
