Note 1 - Organization and Business

ProPhase Labs, Inc. (“ProPhase”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) is a diversified company that offers a range of services including diagnostic testing, genomics testing and contract manufacturing. We provide traditional CLIA molecular laboratory services, including SARS-CoV-2 (“COVID-19”) testing and seek to leverage our Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (“CLIA”) accredited laboratory services to provide whole genome sequencing and research direct to consumers, while building a genomics database to be used for further research. In addition, we have deep experience with over-the-counter (“OTC”) consumer healthcare products and dietary supplements. We currently conduct our operations through two operating segments: diagnostic services and consumer products. Until late Fiscal 2020, we were engaged primarily in the research, development, manufacture, distribution, marketing and sale of OTC consumer healthcare products and dietary supplements in the United States. However, commencing in December 2020, we also began offering COVID-19 and other Respiratory Pathogen Panel (RPP) molecular tests through our diagnostic services business, and in August 2021 we began offering personal genomics products and services.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, ProPhase Diagnostics, Inc. (“ProPhase Diagnostics”), which was formed on October 9, 2020, offers a broad array of clinical diagnostic and testing services at its CLIA certified laboratories including state-of-the-art polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”) testing for COVID-19. Critical to COVID-19 testing, we provide fast turnaround times for results. We also offer rapid antigen and antibody/immunity testing for COVID-19. On October 23, 2020, we acquired Confucius Plaza Medical Laboratory Corp. (“CPM”), which included a non-operating but certified 4,000 square foot CLIA accredited laboratory located in Old Bridge, New Jersey. In December 2020, we expanded our diagnostic service business with the build-out of a second, larger CLIA accredited laboratory in Garden City, New York. Operations at this second facility commenced in January 2021.

On August 10, 2021, we acquired Nebula Genomics, Inc. (“Nebula”), a privately owned personal genomics company, through our new wholly owned subsidiary, ProPhase Precision Medicine, Inc. (“ProPhase Precision”) (see Note 3, Business Acquisitions). ProPhase Precision focuses on genomics testing technologies, a comprehensive method for analyzing entire genomes, including the genes and chromosomes in DNA. The data obtained from genomic testing can help to identify inherited disorders and tendencies, help predict disease risk, help identify expected drug response, and characterize genetic mutations, including those that drive cancer progression.

Our wholly owned subsidiary, Pharmaloz Manufacturing, Inc. (“PMI”), is a full-service contract manufacturer and private label developer of a broad range of non-GMO, organic and natural-based cough drops and lozenges and OTC drug and dietary supplement products.

We also develop and market dietary supplements under the TK Supplements® brand.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to interim financial statements, and therefore do not include all disclosures that might normally be required for financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management without audit and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations and other comprehensive loss and consolidated cash flows, for the periods indicated, have been made. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of operating results that may be achieved over the course of the full year.

Segments

In accordance with FASB ASC 280, “Segment Reporting” (“ASC 280”), the Company discloses financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments.

ASC 280 establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements and requires that companies report financial and descriptive information about their reportable segments based on a management approach. ASC 280 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which separate financial information is available and is evaluated by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), which for the Company is its Chief Executive Officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. We maintain two operating segments: diagnostic services (which includes our COVID-19 and other diagnostic testing services) and consumer products (which includes our contract manufacturing, retail customers and personal genomics products and services) (see Note 15 Segment Information).

Business and Liquidity Risks and Uncertainties

We launched our diagnostic service business in December 2020 and expanded in January 2021 with the opening of our Garden City, New York CLIA accredited laboratory. Our diagnostic service business is and will continue to be influenced by the level of demand for COVID-19 and other diagnostic testing, how long this demand persists, the prices we are able to receive for performing our testing services, our ability to collect payment or reimbursement for our testing services, as well as the availability of COVID-19 testing from other laboratories and the period of time for which we are able to serve as an authorized laboratory offering COVID-19 testing under various Emergency Use Authorizations.

While our revenues increased significantly for the year ended December 31, 2021 and the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as a result of the launch of our diagnostic services business, we will continue to be dependent on both government agency and insurance company reimbursement as well as the prevalence of COVID-19 associated strains.

In March 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), was enacted, providing for reimbursement to healthcare providers for COVID-19 tests provided to uninsured individuals, subject to continued available funding. Approximately 69% and 57% of our diagnostic services revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively was generated from this program for the uninsured. On March 22, 2022, the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) program stopped accepting claims for COVID-19 testing and treatment due to lack of sufficient funds. Despite requests from the Acting Director of the Office of Management and Budget and the White House Coordinator for COVID-19 Response for additional emergency funding for the uninsured program, emergency funding has not been allocated to the HRSA uninsured program as of the financial statement issuance date. We continue to perform testing for uninsured persons and are incurring the accompanying costs. However, as a result of the suspension of the HRSA uninsured program, we did not recognize any revenue related to COVID-19 testing that we performed for uninsured individuals from March 23, 2022 through March 31, 2022. If funding for the HRSA program is reinstituted in the future, we will submit eligible claims for reimbursement to HRSA and record the associated revenues. If the HRSA program remains unfunded and we are unable to submit claims for reimbursement, there could be a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

In addition, our diagnostic service business is subject to extensive federal, state, and local laws and regulations, all of which are subject to change, as well as laws and regulations governing the submission of claims for payment for our services, such as those relating to: coverage of our services under Medicare, Medicaid and other federal health care programs; the amounts that we may bill for our services; and the party to which we must submit claims. Also, reimbursement policies and requirements for some payers and procedures are ambiguous, which could lead to billing errors and related disputes. There can be no assurance that our efforts to offer and perform COVID-19 or other diagnostic testing will be successful in the future or that the revenue and operating profits from such business will increase or maintain their current level.

We acquired and commenced our personal genomics business in August 2021. This business is and will continue to be influenced by demand for our genetic testing products and services, our marketing and service capabilities, and our ability to comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

Our consumer sales are and will continue to be influenced by (i) the timing of acceptance of our TK Supplements^® consumer products in the marketplace, and (ii) fluctuations in the timing of purchase and the ultimate level of demand for the OTC healthcare and cold remedy products that we manufacture, which is largely a function of the timing, length and severity of each cold season. Generally, a cold season is defined as the period from September to March when the incidence of the common cold rises as a result of the change in weather and other factors. We generally experience in the first, third and fourth quarter higher levels of net revenues from our contract manufacturing business. Revenues are generally at their lowest levels in the second quarter when customer demand generally declines.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $20.3 million was provided by operating activities. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $29.4 million as of March 31, 2022. Based on management’s current business plans, the Company estimates it will have enough cash and liquidity to finance its operating requirements for at least 12 months from the date of filing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. However, due to the nature of the diagnostic business and the Company’s focus thus far on COVID-19 testing, there are inherent uncertainties associated with managements’ business plan and cash flow projections, particularly if the Company is unable to grow its diagnostic testing business beyond COVID-19 testing services.

The Company’s future capital needs and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on the Company’s ability to achieve sustained profitability from its diagnostic services, the Company’s ability to successfully diversify its diagnostic services revenue streams and the Company’s ability to market and grow its personal genomics business. The Company may be required to raise additional funds through equity or debt securities offerings or strategic collaboration and/or licensing agreements in order to fund operations until it is able to generate enough revenues. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and the Company’s failure to raise capital when needed could have a material adverse effect on its strategic objectives, results of operations and financial condition.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the respective reporting periods. Examples include revenue recognition and the impact of the variable consideration of diagnostic test reimbursement rates, the provision for uncollectible receivables and billing errors, allowances, slow moving and/or dated inventory and associated provisions, the potential impairment of long-lived assets, stock based compensation valuations, income tax asset valuations and assumptions related to accrued advertising.

Our estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time the condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. Management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments on a quarterly basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include cash on hand and monies invested in money market funds. The carrying amount approximates the fair market value due to the short-term maturity of these securities.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash as of December 31, 2021 includes approximately $250,000 held in escrow related to a potential purchase of an additional lab facility. The potential purchase was not consummated, and we are pursuing the return of the escrow, which is in dispute. As of March 31, 2022, we recognized an expense for this balance as the recovery of the funds was no longer considered probable.

Marketable Debt Securities

We have classified our investments in marketable debt securities as available-for-sale and as a current asset. Our investments in marketable debt securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses from our marketable debt securities are recorded as interest income (expense). These investments in marketable debt securities carry maturity dates between one and three years from date of purchase.

The following is a summary of the components of our marketable debt securities and the underlying fair value input level tier hierarchy (in thousands) (see fair value of financial instruments):

 Summary of Components of Marketable Securities

Marketable Equity Securities

Marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. The change in fair value of marketable equity securities is recognized within other non-operating income, net in the consolidated statements of income.

On June 25, 2021, we were issued 1,260,619 common shares (the “Investment Shares”) as an interest payment under our note receivable (see Note 13, Consulting Agreement and Secured Promissory Note Receivable) with a fair value of $315,000 at the time of issuance and a fair value of $76,000 at December 31, 2021. The investment was classified as a Level 1 financial instrument. We recorded a $76,000 decrease in fair value of investment securities within the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable consists primarily of amounts due from government agencies and healthcare insurers. Unbilled accounts receivable relates to the delivery of our diagnostic testing services for which the related billings will occur in a future period, after a patient’s insurance information has been validated, and represent amounts for which we have a right to receive payment. Unbilled accounts receivable is classified as accounts receivable on the consolidated balance sheet. We carry our accounts receivable at the amount of consideration for which we expect to be entitled less allowances. When estimating the allowances for our diagnostics business, the Company pools its receivables based on the following payer types: healthcare insurers and government payers. The Company principally estimates the allowances by pool based on historical collection experience, current economic conditions, government and healthcare insurer payment trends, and the period of time that the receivables have been outstanding. Should a payer’s reimbursement policy change or their credit quality deteriorate, the Company removes the payer from their respective pools and establishes allowances based on the individual risk characteristics of such payer.

Accounts are written off as uncollectible at the time we determine that collections are unlikely. Accounts receivable, net is comprised of the following (in thousands):

 Schedule of Accounts Receivable Net

Inventory, net

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis (“FIFO”), or net realizable value. Inventory items are analyzed to determine cost and the net realizable value and appropriate valuation adjustments are established.

At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the components of inventory are as follows (in thousands):

 Schedule of Components of Inventory

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. We use the straight-line method in computing depreciation for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation expense is computed in accordance with the following ranges of estimated asset lives: building and improvements - ten to thirty-nine years; machinery and equipment including lab equipment - three to seven years; computer equipment and software - three to five years; and furniture and fixtures - five years.

Concentration of Financial Risks

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash investments, marketable debt securities, and accounts receivable. Our marketable securities are fixed income investments, which are highly liquid and can be readily purchased or sold through established markets.

We maintain cash and cash equivalents with certain major financial institutions. As of March 31, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balance was $25.8 million. Of the total bank balance, $0.9 million was covered by federal depository insurance and $24.9 million was uninsured at March 31, 2022.

ProPhase Labs, Inc. and Subsidiaries

(unaudited)

Accounts receivable subject us to credit risk concentrations from time-to-time. We extend credit to our consumer healthcare product customers based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and credit history and generally do not require collateral. Our diagnostic services receivable credit risk is based on payer reimbursement experience, which includes government agencies and healthcare insurers, the period the receivables have been outstanding and the historical collection rates. The collectability of the diagnostic services receivables is also directly linked to the quality of our billing processes, which depends on information provided to the payors and meeting their requirements for reimbursement.

Leases

At the inception of an arrangement, we determine whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Most leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. We have elected not to recognize on the balance sheet leases with terms of 12 months or less. We typically only include an initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to renew a lease are not included in our assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that we will renew.

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as incentives received. The interest rate implicit in our leases is typically not readily determinable. As a result, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate, which reflects the fixed rate at which we could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term and in a similar economic environment (see Note 12, Leases).

The components of a lease should be allocated between lease components (e.g., land, building, etc.) and non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance, consumables, etc.). The fixed and in-substance fixed contract consideration (including any consideration related to non-components) must be allocated based on the respective relative fair values to the lease components and non-lease components.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the underlying identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life are not amortized, but instead are assessed for impairment annually. Additionally, if an event or change in circumstances occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value, we would evaluate goodwill at that time.

In testing for goodwill impairment, we have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances lead to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is not required. If we conclude otherwise, we are required to perform the two-step impairment test. The goodwill impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level by comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its respective carrying value. If the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying value, goodwill at the reporting unit level is not impaired. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value, an impairment charge will be recorded to reduce the reporting unit to fair value.

ProPhase Labs, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Intangible assets deemed to have finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, where the useful life is the period over which the asset is expected to contribute directly, or indirectly, to our future cash flows.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We measure assets and liabilities at fair value based on expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale date of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

The carrying amounts of our financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and unsecured note payable, approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

We account for our marketable securities at fair value, with the net unrealized gains or losses of marketable debt securities reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and marketable equity securities change in fair value reported on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The components of marketable securities are as follows (in thousands):

There were no transfers of marketable debt securities between Levels 1, 2 or 3 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue that represents the transfer of promised goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. We recognize revenue when performance obligations with our customers have been satisfied. At contract inception, we evaluate the contract to determine if revenue should be recognized using the following five steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Contract with Customers and Performance Obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Sales from product shipments to contract manufacturing and retailer customers are recognized at the time ownership is transferred to the customer. Revenue from diagnostic services is recognized when the results are made available to the customer. Revenue from our personal genomics business is recognized when the genetic testing results are provided to the customer. For subscription services associated with our genomic testing, we recognize revenue ratably over the term of the subscription.

Transaction Price

For contract manufacturing and retail customers, the transaction price is fixed based upon either (i) the terms of a combined master agreement and each related purchase order, or (ii) if there is no master agreement, the price per individual purchase order received from each customer. The customers are invoiced at an agreed upon contractual price for each unit ordered and delivered by the Company.

Revenue from retail customers is reduced for trade promotions, estimated sales returns and other allowances in the same period as the related sales are recorded. No such allowance is applicable to our contract manufacturing customers. We estimate potential future product returns and other allowances related to current period revenue. We analyze historical returns, current trends, and changes in customer and consumer demand when evaluating the adequacy of the sales returns and other allowances.

ProPhase Labs, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

We do not accept returns from our contract manufacturing customers. Our return policy for retail customers accommodates returns for (i) discontinued products, (ii) store closings and (iii) products that have reached or exceeded their designated expiration date. We do not impose a period of time during which product may be returned. All requests for product returns must be submitted to us for pre-approval. We will not accept return requests pertaining to customer inventory “Overstocking” or “Resets”. We will accept return requests only for products in their intended package configuration. We reserve the right to terminate shipment of product to customers who have made unauthorized deductions contrary to our return policy or pursue other methods of reimbursement. We compensate the customer for authorized returns by means of a credit applied to amounts owed.

For our diagnostic services business, a revenue transaction is initiated when we receive a requisition order to perform a diagnostic test. The information provided on the requisition form is used to determine the party that will be billed for the testing performed and the expected reimbursement. We provide diagnostic services to a range of customers. In many cases, the customer that orders our services is not responsible for paying for these services. Depending on the billing arrangement and applicable law, the payer may be the patient or a third party, such as a health plan, Medicare or Medicaid program and other government reimbursement programs. We bill the providers at standard price and take into consideration negotiated discounts and anticipated reimbursement remittance adjustments based on the payer portfolio, when revenue is recorded. We use the most expected value method to estimate the transaction price for reimbursements that vary from the listed contract price.

For our personal genomics business, a revenue transaction is initiated by a DNA test kit sale direct to the consumer sales via our website or through online retailers. The kit sales and subscriptions are billed at a standard price and take into consideration any discounts when revenue is recorded.

Recognize Revenue When the Company Satisfies a Performance Obligation

Recognition for contract manufacturing and retail customers is satisfied at a point in time when the goods are shipped to the customer as (i) we have transferred control of the assets to the customers upon shipping, and (ii) the customer obtains title and assumes the risks and rewards of ownership after the goods are shipped.

For diagnostic services, recognition occurs at the point in time that the results are made available to the customer, which is when the customer benefits from the information contained in the results and obtains control.

For genomic services, we satisfy our product performance obligation at a point in time when the genetic testing results are provided to the customer. For subscriptions services associated with its genomic testing, we satisfy our performance obligation ratably over the subscription period. If the customer does not return the test kit, services cannot be completed by us, potentially resulting in unexercised rights (“breakage”) revenue, including lifetime subscription services. We estimate breakage for the portion of test kits not expected to be returned using an analysis of historical data and consider other factors that could influence customer test kit return behavior. When breakage revenue is recognized on a kit, we recognize breakage on any associated subscription services ratably over the term of the subscription. The Company recognized breakage revenue from aggregate unreturned test kits and subscriptions of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Contract Balances

Deferred revenues primarily consist of amounts that have been billed to or received from customers in advance of revenue recognition and prepayments received from customers in advance of services performed for the R&D work. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we have deferred revenue of $3.1 million and $2.9 million, respectively. Our new personal genomics business comprised $2.9 million of the deferred revenue as of March 31, 2022. The deferred revenue balance within the personal genomics business is comprised of kits to be sequenced and subscription services, which have an average life between 12 and 36 months. The remainder of deferred revenue relates to research and development (“R&D”) stability and release testing programs recognized as contract manufacturing revenue.

The following table disaggregates our deferred revenue by recognition period (in thousands):

 Schedule of Deferred Revenue

Disaggregation of Revenue

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into four categories: diagnostic services, contract manufacturing, retail and others, and genomic products and services. We determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by revenue source for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

 Schedule of Disaggregation by Revenue

Customer Consideration

The Company makes payments to certain diagnostic services customers for distinct services that approximate the fair value for those services. Such services include specimen collection, the collection and delivery of insurance and patient information necessary for billing and collection, and logistics services. Consideration associated with specimen collection services is classified in cost of revenues and the remaining costs are classified as diagnostic expenses within operating expenses in the accompanying statement of operations.

Sales Tax Exclusion from the Transaction Price

We exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from the customer.

Shipping and Handling Activities

We account for shipping and handling activities that we perform as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the good.

Advertising and Incentive Promotions

Advertising and incentive promotion costs are expensed within the period in which they are utilized. Advertising and incentive promotion expense is comprised of (i) media advertising, presented as part of general and administrative expense, (ii) cooperative incentive promotions and coupon program expenses, which are accounted for as part of net revenue, and (iii) free product, which is accounted for as part of cost of revenues. Advertising and incentive promotion expenses incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $60,000 and $168,000, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation.” Under the fair value recognition provision of the ASC, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options and warrants granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and stock grants at their closing reported market value. We recognize all stock-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of stock options, as compensation expense in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values. The grant date fair values of stock options are determined through the use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The compensation cost is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period of the award, which usually coincides with the vesting period. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Stock and stock options to purchase our common stock have been granted to employees pursuant to the terms of certain agreements and stock option plans (see Note 7, Stockholders’ Equity). Stock options are exercisable during a period determined by us, but in no event later than seven years from the date granted.

Research and Development (“R&D”)

R&D costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. R&D costs incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $35,000 and $115,000, respectively. R&D costs are principally related to personnel expenses and new product development initiatives and costs associated with our OTC health care products, dietary supplements and validation costs in association with the diagnostic services business.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse.

The provision for, or benefit from, income taxes includes deferred taxes resulting from the temporary differences in income for financial and tax purposes using the liability method. Future realization of deferred income tax assets requires sufficient taxable income within the carryback, carryforward period available under tax law. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis whether, based on all available evidence, it is probable that the deferred income tax assets are realizable. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that the tax benefit of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The evaluation, as prescribed by ASC 740- 10, “Income Taxes,” includes the consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, regarding historical operating results including recent years with reported losses, the estimated timing of future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, estimated future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards, and potential tax planning strategies which may be employed to prevent an operating loss or tax credit carryforward from expiring unused.

The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes under the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 (the “Subtopic”). The Subtopic clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The Subtopic prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Subtopic provides guidance on the de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Adopted

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) recently issued Accounting Standards Update (“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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, to reduce complexity in applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. The guidance in ASC 470-20 applies to convertible instruments for which the embedded conversion features are not required to be bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as derivatives. In addition, the amendments revise the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification. These amendments are expected to result in more freestanding financial instruments qualifying for equity classification (and, therefore, not accounted for as derivatives), as well as fewer embedded features requiring separate accounting from the host contract. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 further revise the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities, excluding smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In May 2021, the 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). This ASU 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. This ASU provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. It specifically addresses: (1) how an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; (2) how an entity should measure the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; and (3) how an entity should recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange. This ASU will be effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards, Not Yet Adopted

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The ASU sets forth a “current expected credit loss” (CECL) model which requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), which amends the effective date of the original pronouncement for smaller reporting companies. ASU 2016-13 and its amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this ASU on our financial statements.

Note 3 - Business Acquisition

Nebula Acquisition

On August 10, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, ProPhase Precision, entered into and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Nebula Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Nebula, each of the stockholders of Nebula (the “Seller Parties”), and Kamal Obbad, as Seller Party Representative. Pursuant to the terms of the Nebula Stock Purchase Agreement, ProPhase Precision acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Nebula from the Seller Parties, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $14.3 million, subject to post-closing adjustments (the “Nebula Acquisition”). A portion of the purchase price equal to $3.6 million was paid in shares of the Company’s common stock to certain Seller Parties and noteholders of Nebula, based on their election to receive shares of the Company’s common stock in lieu of cash, which shares were valued at a price per share of $7.46, which is equal to the average closing price of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq for the five trading days preceding the signing of the Nebula Stock Purchase Agreement. A portion of the purchase price equal to $1,080,000 (the “Escrow Amount”) is being held in escrow by Citibank, N.A. (the “Escrow Agent”) until February 23, 2023 (“Escrow Termination Date”), pursuant to the terms and conditions of an escrow agreement entered into with the Escrow Agent, as security for the indemnification obligations of the Seller Parties. At the Escrow Termination Date, the remaining amount, if any, of the Escrow Amount, less any amount reasonably necessary to pay any claim with respect to which a notice of claim has been timely and properly given, will be delivered to the Seller Parties, as applicable.

In connection with the Nebula Acquisition, ProPhase Precision entered into an employment agreement with Kamal Obbad, the Chief Executive Officer of Nebula, on the Effective Date, pursuant to which Mr. Obbad serves as Senior Vice President, Director of Sales and Marketing of ProPhase Precision. As a condition to the employment agreement, Mr. Obbad was awarded a stock option to purchase 250,000 shares of Company common stock at an exercise price equal to $7.67 per share, the closing price of the Company common stock on the Effective Date (see Note 7, Stockholders’ Equity).

Based on the valuation, the total consideration of $12.7 million, which is net of $1.6 million in cash acquired, has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as follows (in thousands):

Note 6 -Unsecured Convertible Promissory Notes Payable

The September 2020 Note that remains outstanding as of March 31, 2022 is due and payable on September 15, 2023 and accrues interest at a rate of 10% per year from the closing date, payable on a quarterly basis, until the September 2020 Note is repaid in full. We have the right to prepay the outstanding September 2020 Note at any time after the 13-month anniversary of the initial issuance date after providing written notice to the Lender and may prepay the September 2020 Note prior to such time with the consent of the Lender. The Lender has the right, at any time, and from time to time, on and after the 13-month anniversary of the initial issuance date to convert up to an aggregate of $3.0 million of the September 2020 Note into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $3.00 per share. Repayment of the September 2020 Note has been guaranteed by our wholly owned subsidiary, PMI.

The September 2020 Note contains customary events of default. If a default occurs and is not cured within the applicable cure period or is not waived, any outstanding obligations under the September 2020 Note may be accelerated. The September 2020 Note also contain certain restrictive covenants which, among other things, restrict our ability to create, incur, assume or permit to exist, directly or indirectly, any lien (other than certain permitted liens described in the September 2020 Note) securing any indebtedness of the Company, and prohibits us from distributing or reinvesting the proceeds from any divestment of assets (other than in the ordinary course) without the prior approval of the Lender.

The Amended 2010 Directors’ Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 775,000 shares of common stock.

At March 31, 2022, there were 425,126 stock options outstanding and there were no shares of common stock available to be issued under the Amended 2010 Directors’ Plan.

The 2010 Equity Compensation Plan

On May 20, 2021, the stockholders of the Company approved the Amended and Restated 2010 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Amended 2010 Plan”) at the 2021 Annual Meeting. The Amended 2010 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 4,900,000 shares of common stock.

We will recognize an aggregate of approximately $1,684,000 of remaining share-based compensation expense related to outstanding stock options over a weighted average period of 2.8 years.

The 2018 Stock Incentive Plan

On April 12, 2018, our stockholders approved the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2018 Stock Plan”). The 2018 Stock Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options to eligible employees of the Company, and for the grant of non-statutory stock options to eligible employees, directors and consultants. The 2018 Stock Plan provides that the total number of shares that may be issued pursuant to the 2018 Stock Plan is 2,300,000 shares. At April 12, 2018, all 2,300,000 shares have been granted in the form of stock options to Ted Karkus (the “CEO Option”), our Chief Executive Officer. To date, no stock options have been exercised under the 2018 Stock Plan. No share based compensation expense will be recognized in forward periods related to the 2018 Stock Plan.

The 2018 Stock Plan requires certain proportionate adjustments to be made to the stock options granted under the 2018 Stock Plan upon the occurrence of certain events, including a special distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares, other securities, or other property) in order to maintain parity. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee of the board of directors, as required by the terms of the 2018 Stock Plan, adjusted the terms of the CEO Option, such that the exercise price of the CEO Option was reduced from $3.00 per share to $2.00 per share, effective as of September 5, 2018, the date the special $1.00 special cash dividend was paid to stockholders. The exercise price of the CEO Option was further reduced from $2.00 to $1.75 per share, effective as of January 24, 2019, the date the $0.25 special cash dividend was paid to stockholders. The exercise price of the CEO Option was further reduced from $1.75 to $1.50 per share, effective as of December 12, 2019, the date another $0.25 special cash dividend was paid to stockholders. The exercise price of the CEO Option was further reduced from $1.50 to $1.20 per share, effective as of June 3, 2021, the date another $0.30 special cash dividend was paid to Company’s stockholders. The exercise price of the CEO Option was further reduced from $1.20 to $0.90 per share, effective as of March 10, 2022, the date another $0.30 special cash dividend was paid to Company’s stockholders.

Inducement Option Award

As part of Nebula Acquisition, the Company issued a non-qualified stock option to Kamal Obbad, the Chief Executive Officer of Nebula, as an inducement to his employment with the Company (the “Inducement Award”). The Inducement Award entitles Mr. Obbad to purchase up to 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.67 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the closing date of the Nebula Acquisition. The Inducement Award was granted to Mr. Obbad on the closing date of the Nebula Acquisition. The Inducement Award vested 25% on the grant date and will vest 25% per year for the next three years subject to Mr. Obbad’s continued employment with the Company. The Inducement Award expires on the seventh anniversary of the grant date. Any portion of the Inducement Award that does not vest and become exercisable will be forfeited for no consideration. The grant date fair value of the Inducement Award was approximately $1,128,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we issued an inducement award to a non-employee to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $5.76, the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant.
