Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Rennova Health, Inc. (“Rennova”), together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a vertically integrated provider of a suite of healthcare related products and services. The Company’s principal lines of business are diagnostic laboratory services, supportive software solutions and decision support and informatics services. The Company presents its financial results based upon these three business segments.

 

Merger between the Company and Medytox Solutions, Inc.

 

On November 2, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 15, 2015, by and among CollabRx, Inc. (“CollabRx”), CollabRx Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx formed for the purpose of the merger, and Medytox Solutions, Inc. (“Medytox”), Merger Sub merged with and into Medytox, with Medytox as the surviving company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of CollabRx (the “Merger”). Prior to closing, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to effect a 1-for-10 reverse stock split and to change its name to Rennova Health, Inc. In connection with the Merger, (i) each share of common stock of Medytox was converted into the right to receive 0.4096 shares of common stock of the Company, (ii) each share of Series B Preferred Stock of Medytox was converted into the right to receive one share of a newly-authorized Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, and (iii) each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of Medytox was converted into the right to receive one share of a newly-authorized Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and, as such, the historical financial statements of Medytox became the historical financial statements of the Company.

 

Holders of Company equity prior to the closing of the Merger (including all outstanding Company common stock and all restricted stock units, options and warrants exercisable for shares of Company common stock) held 10% of the Company’s common stock immediately following the closing of the Merger, and holders of Medytox equity prior to the closing of the Merger (including all outstanding Medytox common stock and all outstanding options exercisable for shares of Medytox common stock, but less certain options that were cancelled upon the closing pursuant to agreements between Medytox and such optionees) held 90% of the Company’s common stock immediately following the closing of the Merger, in each case on a fully diluted basis, provided, however, outstanding shares of the newly-designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, certain outstanding convertible promissory notes exercisable for Company common stock after the closing and certain option grants expected to be made following the closing of the Merger are excluded from such ownership percentages.

 

On November 3, 2015, the common stock of Rennova Health, Inc. commenced trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “RNVA.” Prior to that date, our common stock was listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “CLRX.” Immediately after the consummation of the Merger, the Company had 13,750,010 shares of common stock, 5,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and 45,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

On February 7, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a 1-for-30 reverse stock split of the Company’s shares of common stock effective on February 22, 2017 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The stockholders of the Company had approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation on December 22, 2016 to effect a reverse split of all of the Company’s shares of common stock at a specific ratio within a range from 1-for-10 to 1-for-30, and granted authorization to the Board of Directors to determine in its discretion the specific ratio and timing of the reverse split prior to December 31, 2017.

 

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 30 shares of the Company’s then outstanding common stock was combined and automatically converted into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share. In addition, the conversion and exercise prices of all of the Company’s outstanding preferred stock, common stock purchase warrants, stock options and convertible notes payable were proportionately adjusted at the 1:30 reverse split ratio in accordance with the terms of such instruments. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of common stockholders were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split, other than as a result of the rounding up of fractional shares, as no fractional shares were issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.

 

The reverse stock split became effective at the close of business on February 22, 2017 and the Company’s common stock began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on a post-split basis on February 23, 2017. The par value and other terms of the common stock were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split. The authorized capital of the Company of 500,000,000 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock were also unaffected by the Reverse Stock Split. All share, per share and capital stock amounts as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 have been restated to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has recently accumulated significant losses and has negative cash flows from operations, and at December 31, 2016 had a working capital deficit and stockholders’ deficit of $16.3 million and $14.9 million, respectively. In addition, the Company’s cash position is critically deficient, critical payments are not being made in the ordinary course, and certain indebtedness in the amount of $6.0 million matured on March 31, 2017, which the Company does not have the financial resources to satisfy (see note 4), all of which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused management to express substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern are as follows.

 

The Company is currently executing on a plan of action to reduce the number of laboratory facilities it operates from five such facilities as of December 31, 2015 into one, with a corresponding reduction in the number of employees and associated operating expenses, in order to reduce costs. In addition, the Company issued $12.4 million of convertible notes in the first three months of 2017, for which it received net proceeds of $9.9 million.

 

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its business plan, raise any additional capital or secure the additional financing necessary to implement its current operating plan.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to significantly reduce its operating costs, increase its revenues and eventually regain profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
