2.COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The outbreak of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which was declared by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic, has impacted, and is expected to continue to impact worldwide economic activity. While our domestic business was deemed an essential business and we have been able to continue to provide services to our customers, COVID-19 has had a significant impact on our entire operations. COVID-19’s effect on the overall economy has had an adverse impact on hiring; which has had a negative impact on both our domestic and international testing volume.

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relieve and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) Act, enacted on March 27, 2020, and the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (“FFCRA”), in each case

2.COVID-19 Pandemic (continued)

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relieve and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) Act, enacted on March 27, 2020, and the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, in each case modified by the Consolidated Appropriations Act (“CAA”) enacted in December 2020, was an emergency economic stimulus package that included spending provisions and tax cuts to strengthen the United States economy and to fund a nationwide effort to curtail the effect of COVID-19. The principal impact of the CARES Act and subsequent legislation was the adoption of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) described below. The CARES Act, together with subsequent legislation, also provided sweeping tax changes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including amendments to certain provisions of the previously enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”).Act. The Company recognized a benefit of $0.8 million and $1.6$2.5 million for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2021, as a reduction to cost of revenues and operating expenses related to the employee retention credit which was a tax provision in the CARES Act and subsequent legislation. Additionally, the CARES Act allowed the Company to fully carryback the 2020 net operating loss, for a refund of corporate income taxes previously paid. See Item 2: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

 

Liquidity and Managements Plans

 

At JuneSeptember 30, 2021, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity included approximately $2.7$2.0 million of cash. Management currently believes that such funds, together with future operating profits which are expected to be positively impacted by employee retention credit provisions of the CAA, and the effect of the full forgiveness of the PPP loan (the “PPP Loan” – see Note 12 – “Subsequent Events”), should be adequate to fund anticipated working capital requirements, including equipment financing obligations, and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Furthermore, dependingDepending upon the Company’s results of operations, its future capital needs and available marketing opportunities, the Company may use various financing sources to raise additional funds. Such sources could include but are not limited to, issuance of common stock, debt financing, lines of credit, or equipment leasing, although there is no assurance that such financings will be available to the Company on terms it deems acceptable, if at all.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company believes its allowance for credit losses related to its accounts receivable remained adequate as of JuneSeptember 30, 2021, due to the essential nature of its customers business, as well as the diversity of its large customer base. While the Company anticipates there could be an increase in the aging of its accounts receivable, the Company does not anticipate a significant increase in default risk.

 

Risk and Uncertainties

 

The duration and severity of COVID-19-related potential disruptions involve risks and uncertainties, and it is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact on the Company’s business and could adversely affect our estimates, results of operations and financial condition.

4.         Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (or loss)(loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (or loss) by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period when the effect is dilutive. The number of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period was determined in accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common equivalent shares consisted of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding, unvested SUAs.

While management currently believes that its existing funds and quarterly cash flow from operations should be adequate to fund the Company’s business for at least the next 12 months, economic conditions related to COVID-19 are expected to continue to adversely affect the Company’s operating results and cash flows. Depending upon the Company’s results of operations, its future capital needs and available marketing opportunities, the Company may use various financing sources to raise additional funds. Such sources could include but are not limited to, issuance of common stock or debt financing, lines of credit, or equipment leasing, although there is no assurance that such financings will be available to the Company on terms it deems acceptable, if at all.
