Note 2 – Liquidity and Financial Condition

 

Impact of the Pandemic

 

A novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. We have been closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our operations and we have taken steps intended to minimize the risk to our employees and patients. These steps have increased our costs and our revenues have been significantly adversely affected. Demand for hospital services has substantially decreased. As discussed in Note 7, we have received Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans. We have also received Provider Relief Funds from the federal government as more fully discussed below. If the COVID-19 pandemic continues for a further extended period, we expect to incur significant losses and additional financial assistance may be required. Going forward, the Company is unable to determine the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect its business. The nature and effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our balance sheet and results of operations will depend on the severity and length of the pandemic in our service areas; government activities to mitigate the pandemic’s effect; regulatory changes in response to the pandemic, especially those affecting rural hospitals; and existing and potential government assistance that may be provided.

 

HHS Provider Relief Funds

 

The Company received Provider Relief Funds from the United States Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) provided to eligible healthcare providers out of the $100 billion Public Health and Social Services Emergency Fund provided for in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The funds are allocated to eligible healthcare providers for expenses and lost revenue attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. The funds are being released in tranches, and HHS partnered with UnitedHealth Group to distribute the initial $30 billion in funds by direct deposit to providers. As of August 10, 2020, Company-owned facilities have received approximately $12.5 million in relief funds, $7.5 million of which we received in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The fund payments are grants, not loans, and HHS will not require repayment, but providers are restricted and the funds must be used only for grant approved purposes. Based on an analysis of the compliance and reporting requirements of the Provider Relief Funds and the impact of the pandemic on our operating results through the end of the second quarter, we recognized $7.5 million of these payments as income in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. The funds have been recorded under the caption “Other income” in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Going Concern

 

Under ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASC 205-40”), the Company has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about its ability to meet its future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. As required by ASC 205-40, this evaluation shall initially not take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. Management has assessed the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with the requirement of ASC 205-40.

 

As reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit of $61.2 million and $593.8 million, respectively, at June 30, 2020. In addition, the Company had a loss from continuing operations of approximately $3.6 million and cash used in operating activities of $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. As of the date of this report, payments for our operations in the ordinary course are not being made. The continued losses and other related factors, including the defaults under the terms of outstanding debentures, for which we have received a payment demand notice, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the filing date of this report.

 

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming the Company can continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations through realization of assets, and the settling of liabilities in the normal course of business. Initial cost savings were realized by reducing the number of laboratory facilities to one for most of its toxicology diagnostics, thereby reducing the number of employees and associated operating expenses. The Company plans to separate out its Advanced Molecular Services Group (“AMSG”) and Health Technology Solutions, Inc. (“HTS”), as independent publicly traded companies in either a spin off or transaction with a publicly quoted company. The separations are subject to numerous conditions, including effectiveness of Registration Statements that may need to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and consents, including under various funding agreements previously entered into by the Company. The intent of the separation of AMSG and HTS is to create separate public companies, each of which can focus on its own strengths and operational plans. In accordance with ASC 205-20 and having met the criteria for “held for sale”, the Company has reflected amounts relating to AMSG and HTS as disposal groups classified as held for sale and included as part of discontinued operations. AMSG and HTS are no longer included in the segment reporting following the reclassification to discontinued operations. The discontinued operations of AMSG and HTS are described further in Note 17. On June 10, 2020 the Company signed an agreement with TPT Global Tech, Inc. (OTC: TPTW), a California-based public company, to merge HTS and AMSG into a public company (target) after TPT completes a merger of its wholly-owned subsidiary, InnovaQor, Inc. with this target. Completion of the agreement is subject to a number of approvals and consents which need to be secured to complete the transaction as more fully discussed in Note 17.

 

The Company’s core business is now rural hospitals, which is a specialized marketplace with a requirement for capable and knowledgeable management. The Company’s current financial condition may make it difficult to attract and maintain adequate expertise in its management team to successfully operate the Company’s hospitals.

 

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its business plan, which is to acquire and operate clusters of rural hospitals, 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 raise adequate capital to fund its operations and repay its outstanding debentures and other past due obligations, fully align its operating costs, increase its revenues, and eventually regain profitable operations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
