The assets and Poland. These operations have been terminatedliabilities of MedMatica were merged into SRS and the subsidiaries are being liquidated.company was renamed medSR, Inc. (“medSR”). See Note 3.

2. Liquidity

The Company previously adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern, which requires that management evaluate whether there are relevant conditions and events that, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Based upon the analysis set forth below, management believes there is no longer substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to meet the obligations as they become due within the next twelve months.

As part of the evaluation, management considered that on September 30, 2017, the Company had$2.8 millionof cash and had positive working capital of $913,000. The loss before income taxes was$915,000for the three months ended September 30, 2017, of which$664,000represents non-cash depreciation and amortization and$463,000 of non-cash financing costs, which were written off as a result of the termination of the Opus Bank (“Opus”) credit agreement.

During the second and third quarter of 2017, the Company raised a total of$15.0 millionin net proceeds from a series of equity financings. In May 2017, the Company completed a registered direct offering of one million shares of its common stock at $2.30 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately $2.0 million. Between June and September 2017, the Company completed five public offerings of approximately 610,000 shares of its 11% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) at $25.00 per share, raising net proceeds of approximately$13.0 million.

8

These equity financings improved the financial position of the Company and allowed us to repay the amount owed to Prudential during the third quarter. As a result of the common and preferred stock offerings, the Company’s cash position and the working capital deficit at the end of the second quarter improved to positive net working capital of$913,000at the end of the third quarter. At September 30, 2017, the total amount outstanding under the Opus credit line was $2 million and the Company has$2.8 millionof cash. In October 2017, the Company entered into a new credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and repaid and terminated its previous facility with Opus. The SVB credit facility is a $5 million secured revolving line of credit where borrowings are based on a formula of 200% of repeatable revenue adjusted by an annualized attrition rate as defined in the credit facility agreement. Under the SVB credit facility agreement, the facility currently available to the Company is in excess of $4 million. Management continues to focus on the Company’s overall profitability, including growing revenue and managing expenses, and expects that these efforts will continue to enhance our liquidity and financial position. The Company forecasts that cash flow from operations over the next 12 months will be positive and provide sufficient liquidity to the Company.Management has based its expectations on assumptions that may prove to be wrong.

3. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 8-03. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal and recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 20162021 and cash flows for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 2016.2021. When preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016,2021, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2017.14, 2022.

Recent Accounting PronouncementsFrom time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2014,June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09,2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP. The new impairment model requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur for most financial assets and certain other instruments. It will apply to all entities. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, entities will be required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. This may result in the earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which delays this standard’s effective date for SEC smaller reporting companies to the fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2022. The Company is in the process of determining if this update will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersSimplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes(Topic 606). This ASU simplifies accounting for income taxes to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The core principleamendments consist of this amendment is that an entity should recognize revenuethe removal of certain exceptions to depict the transfergeneral principles of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09, as amended by ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-12ASC 740 and ASU 2016-20, issome additional simplifications. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periodspublic business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein. These ASUs can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.2020. The Company plans to adopt Topic 606 using the modified retrospective method when it becomesadopted this guidance effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. We have assigned internal resources to assist in the evaluation of the potential impacts of this amendment. Implementation efforts to date have included a review of revenue agreements and the performance obligations contained therein, and review of our commercial terms and practices across our revenue streams and a comparison of our current revenue recognition procedures to those required under Topic 606. While the Company is continuing to assess the effects of the amendment, management currently believes that the new guidance will not have a materialJanuary 1, 2021. There was no impact on our revenue recognition policies, practices or systems. The Company is continuing to evaluate the effect that Topic 606 will have on its consolidated financial statements as a result of this standard.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and related disclosures,Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and preliminary assessmentsDerivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The amendments are subjectnot required to change. Webe implemented until 2022 for public entities. There was no impact on the consolidated financial statements as a result of this standard.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) – Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in this update require acquiring entities to apply Topic 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is in the process of finalizingdetermining if this update will have a significant impact on the analysisconsolidated financial statements.

3. ACQUISITIONS

2021 Acquisition

On June 1, 2021, CAC entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with MedMatica and its sole shareholder. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, CAC acquired (i) all of the requirementsissued and outstanding capital stock of SRS, a Delaware corporation, and (ii) all of the MedMatica assets that were used in MedMatica’s and SRS’ business. Certain MedMatica liabilities were also assumed under Topic 606 and quantifying the effectsPurchase Agreement. The total cash consideration was $10 million plus a working capital adjustment of approximately $3.8 million. The Purchase Agreement also provides that if any, from the implementation which should be completed during the fourth quarter18-month period commencing on June 1, 2021 (the “Earn-Out Period”), certain EBITDA and revenue targets with respect to the assets and capital stock purchased under the Purchase Agreement are achieved, then CAC shall pay MedMatica an earn-out up to a maximum of 2017.$8 million. Further, if during the Earn-Out Period, certain additional and increased EBITDA and revenue targets with respect to the assets and capital stock purchased under the Purchase Agreement are achieved, then CAC shall pay MedMatica an additional earn-out, up to a maximum of $5 million.

In February 2016,MedMatica and SRS are in the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842).business of providing a broad range of specialty consulting services to hospitals and large healthcare groups, including certain consulting services related to healthcare IT application services and implementations, medical practice management, and revenue cycle management. The new standard will require organizations that lease assets — referred to as “lessees” — to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP — which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet — the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with earlier adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01Business Combinations(Topic 805):Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist companies and other reporting organizations with evaluating whether transactions should beacquisition has been accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or business. The amendments in this ASU provide a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application, and make the definition of a business more operable. combination.

A summary of the total consideration is as follows:

SUMMARY OF TOTAL CONSIDERATION ON BUSINESS CONSIDERATION

medSR Purchase Price   
  ($ in thousands) 
Cash $12,261 
Amounts held in escrow  1,571 
Contingent consideration  5,605 
Total purchase price $19,437 

The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods.Upon adoption,Company engaged a third party valuation specialist to assist the Company in valuing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from MedMatica. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation.

SCHEDULE OF ASSETS ACQUIRED AND LIABILITIES ASSUMED

  ($ in thousands) 
Accounts receivable $2,696 
Receivable from seller  227 
Prepaid expenses  102 
Unbilled receivables  2,491 
Property and equipment  84 
Customer relationships  3,100 
Acquired backlog  490 
Goodwill  11,931 
Accounts payable  (539)
Accrued expenses & compensation  (1,125)
Deferred revenue  (20)
Total purchase price allocation $19,437 

The acquired accounts receivable is recorded at fair value, which represents amounts that have subsequently been paid or were expected to be paid by clients. The fair value of customer relationships was based on the estimated discounted cash flows generated by these intangibles. The goodwill represents the Company’s ability to have an expanded local presence in additional markets and operational synergies that we expect to achieve that would not be available to other market participants. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible ratably for income tax purposes over fifteen years. The purchase agreement provides that if revenue and EBITDA over the next 18 months exceeds certain specified amounts, there will applybe an earn-out payment to the guidance inseller equal to such excess, up to $13 million. It was estimated that the probable payment will be approximately $5.6 million and this ASU when evaluating whether acquired assets and activities constitute a business.

Also in January 2017,amount was recorded as part of the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other(Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. The ASU modifies the accounting for goodwill impairment with the objective of simplifying the process of determining impairment levels. Specifically, the amendments in the ASU eliminate a step in the goodwill impairment test which requires companies to develop a hypothetical purchase price allocation when analyzing goodwill impairment. This eliminatesas contingent consideration. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the need for companies to estimate the fair value of individual existing assets and liabilities within a reporting unit. Instead, goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s total carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. All other aspects of the goodwill impairment test process have remained the same. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning in the year 2020, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests after January 1, 2017. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04. There is currently no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of this adoption.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09,Compensation - Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting(Topic 718), which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. An entity will account for the effects of a modification unlessdetermined that the fair value of the modified award iscontingent consideration was approximately $2.5 million and $3.1 million, respectively, based in part on the sameactual operating results since the acquisition. The difference in the contingent consideration between December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022 has been recorded as a change in contingent consideration in the original award, the vesting conditionsconsolidated statements of operations.

As part of the modified award are the same as the original award and the classificationacquisition, $1.5 million of the modified award as an equity instrument or liability instrument is the same as the original award. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The update is to be adopted prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this update but does not believe it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

The WMB Installment Payments are escrow, which represented $500,000 to be paid quarterly commencing October, 2017. Based onupon the Company’sachievement of agreed-upon revenue forecast, it does not appear that there will be any WMB Installment Payments and thereforebacklog milestones, and the preliminary aggregate purchase price of WMB was determinedbalance to be $205,000.held for up to 18 monthsto satisfy certain indemnification obligations. During the third quarter of 2021, the initial portion of the escrow was settled whereby $250,000 was paid to the seller and $250,000 was offset against the working capital adjustment. An additional $71,000 that was held in escrow was also paid.

The aggregate purchase price was $7 million which consisted of $2 million in cash paid at closing and $5 million, plus interest, which was paid during the third quarter of 2017.

Legal Proceedings

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. We have operating leases for office and temporary living space as well as for some office equipment. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current operating lease liability and non-current operating lease liability in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company is subjectdoes not have any finance leases.

ROU assets represent our right to legal proceedingsuse an underlying asset for the lease term and claimslease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which have arisenare derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to our bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.

Our lease terms include options to extend the lease when we believe that we may want the right to exercise that option. Leases with a term of less than 12 months are not recorded in the ordinary course of businessconsolidated balance sheets.Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the lease and have not been fully adjudicated. These actions, when ultimately concludednon-lease components as a single lease component.

If a lease is modified after the effective date, the operating lease ROU asset and liability are re-measured using the current incremental borrowing rate. We review our incremental borrowing rate for our portfolio of leases on a quarterly basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were approximately $263,000 and $243,000, respectively, of unoccupied lease charges for two of the Company’s facilities. There were no lease impairments or restructuring charges during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, there was a gain on lease termination of approximately $105,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded approximately $775,000 of impairment charges on a vendor contract.

Lease expense is included in direct operating costs and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations based on the nature of the expense. As of March 31, 2022, we had 34 leased properties, five in Medical Practice Management and 29 in Healthcare IT, with remaining terms ranging from less than one year to fifteen years. Our lease terms are determined taking into account lease renewal options, the Company’s anticipated operating plans and leases that are on a month-to-month basis. The Company also has some related party leases – see Note 9.

Leases8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal ProceedingsOn May 30, 2018, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division, Somerset County (the “Chancery Court”) denied the Company’s and MTBC Acquisition Corp.’s (“MAC’s”) request to enjoin an arbitration proceeding demanded by Randolph Pain Relief and Wellness Center (“RPRWC”) related to RCM services provided by parties unaffiliated with the Company and MAC. On June 15, 2018, the Company and MAC filed an appeal of the Chancery Court’s decision with the New Jersey Superior Court, Appellate Division. On July 19, 2018, the Chancery Court ordered that the arbitration be stayed pending the Company’s and MAC’s appeal. On appeal, the Company and MAC contended they were never party to the billing services agreement giving rise to the arbitration claim, did not assume the obligations of Millennium Practice Management Associates, Inc. (“MPMA”) under such agreement, and any agreement to arbitrate disputes arising under such agreement did not apply to the Company or MAC as RPRWC terminated the agreement before the APA took effect. On January 30, 2019, the parties conducted oral arguments before the Appellate Court.

On April 23, 2019, the Appellate Division affirmed in part and reversed in part the trial court’s order. The Appellate Division upheld the portion of the trial court’s order requiring MAC to participate in the arbitration based on the trial court’s finding that MAC had assumed MPMA’s contractual responsibilities. The Appellate Division reversed the trial court’s order requiring the Company to participate in the arbitration on the grounds that insufficient facts had been provided by RPRWC from which the court could conclude the Company was required to participate in the arbitration. As a result, the Appellate Division remanded the issue of whether Company is required to participate in the arbitration back to the trial court for further proceedings.

15

The parties completed discovery in the remanded matter on November 29, 2019, and thereafter both the Company and RPRWC filed cross-motions for summary judgment in their favor. On February 6, 2020, the Chancery Court denied RPRWC’s motion for summary judgment and granted the Company’s cross-motion for summary judgment. The Chancery Court held that the Company cannot be compelled to participate in the Arbitration. RPRWC has informed the Company that it does not intend to appeal the Chancery Court’s ruling and that it intends to move forward solely against MAC. On March 25, 2020, the Chancery Court lifted the stay of arbitration relative to RPRWC and MAC. In its arbitration demand RPRWC alleges that MPMA, a subsidiary of MediGain, LLC, breached the terms of the billing services agreement the parties had entered into and sought compensatory damages of $6.6 million and costs.

On May 28, 2020, the arbitrator handling the matter conducted a scheduling conference with the parties in order to establish deadlines for the parties to exchange discovery requests and responses. During the conference, the arbitrator directed RPRWC to produce statement of damages on which it bases its claim. RPRWC disclosed its statement of damages to MAC on June 12, 2020. RPRWC’s June 12, 2020 statement of damages increased its alleged damages from $6.6 million and costs to $20 million and costs. On July 24, 2020, RPRWC disclosed a declaration to MAC, in which RPRWC estimates its damages to be approximately $11 million plus costs. RPRWC then served expert reports in November 2021. Plaintiff’s expert analyzed only a minute portion of the claims alleged to have been mishandled and then extrapolated damages to be in the range of $9.8 million to $10.8 million; however, this is unrealistically based on an alleged 90-100% collection rate on charges. MAC has served an expert report refuting the methodology used by RPRWC’s expert, the allegations of mishandling and the calculated damages. This matter is currently being prepared for an arbitration hearing which is currently scheduled on several dates in June 2022.

While the allegations of breach of contract made by RPRWC are the subject of the ongoing legal proceedings, MAC believes RPRWC’s allegations lack merit on numerous grounds. The Company and MAC plan to vigorously defend against RPRWC’s claim and in the event of a loss, if any, they anticipate the loss to be substantially less than the amount claimed.

Through the CCH transaction, we acquired its software technology and related business, of which certain elements were, at the time of the acquisition, subject to a civil investigation to determine pre-acquisition compliance with certain federal regulatory requirements. This element was considered as part of the transaction as $4 million of the transaction’s consideration was held in escrow for the resolution of this investigation. Following the closing of the transaction, the Company continued to cooperate with the inquiry as CCH had historically done since the commencement of the investigation in July of 2018. The Company accrued $4.2 million to resolve this investigation, including the $4 million in escrow, which was recorded as an indemnification asset which is included in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2020 in prepaid expenses and other current assets with an offsetting amount in accrued expenses. The Company settled the obligation in April 2021 substantially within the range covered by the escrowed funds.

From time to time, we may become involved in other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Including the proceedings described above, we are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of the Company.

11. REVENUE

Introduction

The Preferred StockCompany accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. All revenue is listedrecognized as our performance obligations are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer, and is the unit of account under ASC 606. For revenue cycle management services, the Company recognizes revenue when services begin on medical billing claims, which is generally upon receipt of the claim from the provider. The Company estimates the value of the consideration it will earn over the remaining contractual period as services are provided and recognizes the fees over the term; this estimation involves predicting the amounts our clients will ultimately collect associated with the services they provided. Certain significant estimates, such as payment-to-charge ratios, effective billing rates and the estimated contractual payment periods are required to measure revenue cycle management revenue under the standard.

Most of our current contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation. For contracts where we provide multiple services, such as where we perform multiple ancillary services, each service represents its own performance obligation. The standalone selling prices are based on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “MTBCP.”

10.Related PARTIES

The Company had sales to a related party, a physician who is the wife of the CEO. Revenues from this customer were approximately $12,000 and $13,000contractual price for the nine months ended September 30, 2017service.

We apply the portfolio approach as permitted by ASC 606 as a practical expedient to contracts with similar characteristics and 2016, respectively,we use estimates and approximately $4,000assumptions when accounting for those portfolios. Our contracts generally include standard commercial payment terms. We have no significant obligations for refunds, warranties or similar obligations and $5,000our revenue does not include taxes collected from our customers.

Disaggregation of Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We derive revenue from five primary sources: (1) technology-enabled business solutions, (2) professional services, (3) printing and mailing services, (4) group purchasing services and (5) medical practice management services.

The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue for the three months ended SeptemberMarch 31:

Total $35,341  $29,768 
Revenues $35,341  $29,768 

Technology-enabled business solutions:

Revenue derived on an on-going basis from our technology-enabled solutions is typically billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers.

Revenue cycle management services are the recurring process of submitting and following up on claims with health insurance companies in order for the healthcare providers to receive payment for the services they rendered. The Company typically invoices customers on a monthly basis based on the actual collections received by its customers and the agreed-upon rate in the sales contract. The fee for these services typically includes use of practice management software and related tools (on a SaaS basis), electronic health records (on a SaaS basis), medical billing services and use of mobile health solutions. We consider the services to be one performance obligation since the promises are not distinct in the context of the contract. The performance obligation consists of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers.

In many cases, our clients may terminate their agreements with 90 days’ notice without cause, thereby limiting the term in which we have enforceable rights and obligations, although this time period can vary between clients. Our payment terms are normally net 30 2017days. Although our contracts typically have stated terms of one or more years, under ASC 606 our contracts are considered month-to-month and 2016, respectively. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the receivable balance due from this customer was approximately $1,500 and $1,600, respectively.accordingly, there is no financing component.

For the majority of our revenue cycle management contracts, the total transaction price is variable because our obligation is to process an unknown quantity of claims, as and when requested by our customers over the contract period. When a contract includes variable consideration, we evaluate the estimate of the variable consideration to determine whether the estimate needs to be constrained; therefore, we include variable consideration in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Estimates to determine variable consideration, such as payment to charge ratios, effective billing rates, and the estimated contractual payment periods, are updated at each reporting date. Revenue is recognized over the performance period using the input method.

Our proprietary, cloud-based practice management application automates the labor-intensive workflow of a medical office in a unified and streamlined SaaS platform. The Company has a large number of clients who utilize the Company’s practice management software, electronic health records software, patient experience management solutions, business intelligence software and/or robotic process automation software on a SaaS basis, but who do not utilize the Company’s revenue cycle management services. SaaS fees may be fixed based on the number of providers, or may be variable.

The medical billing clearinghouse service takes claim information from customers, checks the claims for errors and sends this information electronically to insurance companies. The Company invoices customers on a monthly basis based on the number of claims submitted and the agreed-upon rate in the agreement. This service is provided to medical practices and providers to medical practices who are not revenue cycle management customers. The performance obligation is satisfied once the relevant submissions are completed.

Additional services such as coding, credentialing and transcription are sometimes rendered in connection with the delivery of revenue cycle management and related medical services. The Company invoices customers monthly, based on the actual amount of services performed at the agreed-upon rate in the contract. These services are only offered to revenue cycle management customers. These services do not represent a material right because the services are optional to the customer and customers electing these services are charged the same price for those services as if they were on a standalone basis. Each individual coding, credentialing or transcription transaction processed represents a performance obligation, which is satisfied over time as that individual service is rendered.

Professional services:

Our professional services include an extensive set of services including EHR vendor-agnostic optimization and activation, project management, IT transformation consulting, process improvement, training, education and staffing for large healthcare organizations including health systems and hospitals. Revenue is recorded monthly on a time and materials or a fixed rate basis. This is a separate performance obligation from any RCM or SaaS services provided, for which the Company receives and records monthly fees. The performance obligation is satisfied over time as the professional services are rendered.

Printing and mailing services:

The Company provides printing and mailing services for both revenue cycle management customers and a non- revenue cycle management customer, and invoices on a monthly basis based on the number of prints, the agreed-upon rate per print and the postage incurred. The performance obligation is satisfied once the printing and mailing is completed.

19

Group purchasing services:

The Company provides group purchasing services which enable medical providers to purchase various vaccines directly from selected pharmaceutical companies at a partydiscounted price. Currently, there are approximately 4,000 medical providers who are members of the program. Revenue is recognized as the vaccine shipments are made to the medical providers. Fees from the pharmaceutical companies are paid either quarterly or annually and the Company adjusts its revenue accrual at the time of payment. The Company makes significant judgments regarding the variable consideration which we expect to be entitled to for the group purchasing services which includes the anticipated shipments to the members enrolled in the program, anticipated volumes of purchases made by the members, and the changes in the number of members. The amounts recorded are constrained by estimates of decreases in shipments and loss of members to avoid a nonexclusive aircraft dry lease agreementsignificant revenue reversal in the subsequent period. The only performance obligation is to provide the pharmaceutical companies with Kashmir Air, Inc. (“KAI”),the medical providers who want to become members in order to purchase vaccines. The performance obligation is satisfied once the medical provider agrees to purchase a specific quantity of vaccines and the medical provider’s information is forwarded to the vaccine suppliers. The Company records a contract asset for revenue earned and not paid as the ultimate payment is conditioned on achieving certain volume thresholds.

For all of the above revenue streams other than group purchasing services, revenue is recognized over time, which is ownedtypically one month or less, which closely matches the point in time that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the CEO. Company. For the group purchasing services, revenue is recognized at a point in time. Each service is substantially the same and has the same periodic pattern of transfer to the customer. Each of the services provided above is considered a separate performance obligation.

Medical practice management services:

The Company also provides medical practice management services under long-term management service agreements to three medical practices. We provide the medical practices with the nurses, administrative support, facilities, supplies, equipment, marketing, RCM, accounting, and other non-clinical services needed to efficiently operate their practices. Revenue is recognized as the services are provided to the medical practices. Revenue recorded an expensein the consolidated statements of approximately $96,000 for bothoperations represents the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and approximately $32,000 for both the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. Asreimbursement of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016,costs paid by the Company hadfor the practices and the management fee earned each month for managing the practice. The management fee is based on either a liability outstanding to KAIfixed fee or a percentage of the net operating income.

The Company assumes all financial risk for the performance of the managed medical practices. Revenue is impacted by the amount of the costs incurred by the practices and their operating income. The gross billing of the practices is impacted by billing rates, changes in current procedural terminology code reimbursement and collection trends which in turn impacts the management fee that the Company is entitled to. Billing rates are reviewed at least annually and adjusted based on current insurer reimbursement practices. The performance obligation is satisfied as the management services are provided.

Our contracts for medical practice management services have approximately $17,000,an additional 20 years remaining and are only cancellable under very limited circumstances. The Company receives a management fee each month for managing the day-to-day business operations of each medical group as a fixed fee or a percentage payment of the net operating income which is included in accrued liability to related partyrevenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company leases its corporate offices, temporary housing for its foreign visitors and a storage facility in New Jersey and its backup operations center in Bagh, Pakistan, from the CEO. The related party rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $141,000 and $131,000, respectively,and $47,000 and $43,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is included in direct operating costs and general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Current assets-related party

Our medical practice management services obligations consist of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers. Revenue is recognized over time, however for reporting and convenience purposes, the management fee is computed at each month end.

Information about contract balances:

As of March 31, 2022, the estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to the remaining revenue cycle management performance obligations outstanding was approximately $4.4 million. We expect to recognize substantially all of the revenue for the remaining performance obligations over the next three months. Approximately $228,000 of the contract asset represents revenue earned, but not yet paid, from the group purchasing services.

Amounts that we are entitled to collect under the applicable contract are recorded as accounts receivable. Invoicing is performed at the end of each month when the services have been provided. The contract asset includes our right to payment for services already transferred to a customer when the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time. For example, contracts for revenue cycle management services where we recognize revenue over time but do not have a contractual right to payment until the customer receives payment of their claim from the insurance provider. The contract asset also includes the revenue accrued, not received, for the group purchasing services.

20

Changes in the contract asset are recorded as adjustments to net revenue. The changes primarily result from providing services to revenue cycle management customers that result in additional consideration and are offset by our right to payment for services becoming unconditional and changes in the revenue accrued for the group purchasing services. The contract asset for our group purchasing services is reduced when we receive payments from vaccine manufacturers and is increased for revenue earned, not received. The opening and closing balances of the Company’s accounts receivable, contract asset and deferred revenue are as follows:

Deferred commissions:

Our sales incentive plans include commissions payable to employees and third parties at the time of initial contract execution that are capitalized as incremental costs to obtain a contract. The capitalized commissions are amortized over the period the related services are transferred. As we do not offer commissions on contract renewals, we have determined the amortization period to be the estimated client life, which is three years.

Fair value measurements are based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our view of market participant assumptions in the absence of observable market information. We utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair values of assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value are categorized based upon the level of judgement associated with the inputs used to measure their value in one of the Federal NOL carry forward is currently subject to certain utilization limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.following three categories:

15. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman jointly serve as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), organize the Company, manage resource allocations and measure performance among 2operating and reportable segments: (i) Healthcare IT and (ii) Medical Practice Management.

The Healthcare IT segment includes revenue cycle management, SaaS solutions and other services. The Medical Practice Management segment includes the management of three medical practices. Each segment is considered a reporting unit. The CODM evaluates financial performance of the business units on the basis of revenue and direct operating costs excluding unallocated amounts that are mainly corporate overhead costs. Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on March 14, 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a discussion of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 20162021, and other factors that are expected to affect our prospective financial condition. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes beginning on page 4 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Some of the statements set forth in this section are forward-looking statements relating to our future results of operations. Our actual results may vary from the results anticipated by these statements. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” on page 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

OverviewCOVID-19 Pandemic

MTBCWhile the COVID-19 pandemic did not materially adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial results and operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022, economic and health conditions in the United States and across most of the globe continue to change. The Company expanded its telehealth operations, which is an alternative to office visits. However, not all physicians are using telehealth and not to the same extent as previous office visits.

The COVID-19 pandemic affected the Company’s operations in 2021 and may continue to do so indefinitely in the future. The pandemic may have an impact on the Company’s business, operations, and financial results and conditions, directly and indirectly, including, without limitation, impacts on the health of the Company’s management and employees, its operations, marketing and sales activities, and on the overall economy. The spread of the virus did not adversely affect the health and availability of our employees and staff. The scope and nature of these impacts, most of which are beyond the Company’s control, continue to evolve and the outcomes are uncertain.

Due to the above circumstances and as described generally in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 may not necessarily be indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The Company is not aware of any certain event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgements or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates could change in the future as new information about future developments is obtained. Management cannot predict the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s consolidated operations nor on economic conditions generally, including the effects on patient visits. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company is uncertain and will depend on highly unpredictable factors such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the severity of the disease, the duration of outbreak, and the effectiveness of any further developments globally and nationally. The Company will actively monitor the situation and take further action that is in the best interest of our employees, customers, partners, and stockholders.

Adoption of our technology-enabled business solutions typically requires little or no upfront expenditure by a provider.client. Additionally, for most of our solutions and customers, our financial performance is linked directly to the financial performance of our clients, becauseas the vast majority of our revenues are based on a percentage of our clients’ collections. The standard feefees we charge for our complete, integrated, end-to-end solution isare very competitive and among the lowest in the industry. We estimate that we currently provide services to approximately 40,000 providers, (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services) practicing in approximately 2,600 independent medical practices and hospitals representing 80 specialties and subspecialties in 50 states. In addition, we serve approximately 200 clients that are not medical practices, but are primarily service organizations who serve the healthcare community. The foregoing numbers include clients leveraging any of our products or services, and are based, in part, upon estimates where the precise number of practices or providers is unknown.

During the third quarterWe service clients ranging from small practices, consisting of 2017,one to ten providers, to large practices with over 2,300 providers operating in multiple states, to community hospitals.

With regardOn June 16, 2020, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Meridian Billing Management Co. and its affiliate Origin Holdings, Inc. (collectively, “Meridian,” and sometimes referred to our acquisition strategy, we believeas “Meridian Medical Management”), a former GE Healthcare IT company that it is becoming increasingly difficult for traditional RCM companies to meet the growing technology and business service needs ofdelivers advanced healthcare providers without a significant investment in information technology infrastructure.solutions and services. The RCM service industryCompany paid $11.9 million in cash, issued 200,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,250,000 of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price per share of $7.50 for two years and assumed Meridian’s negative working capital and certain long-term lease liabilities where the space is highly fragmented,either not being utilized or will be vacated shortly, with many localan aggregate value of approximately $4.8 million.

On June 1, 2021, CareCloud Acquisition Corp (“CAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into an Asset and regional RCM companies serving small medical practices. We believe thatStock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with MedMatica Consulting Associates, Inc., (“MedMatica”) whereby CAC purchased the industry is ripe for consolidationassets of MedMatica and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions.

Our investment in salesthe stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary Santa Rosa Staffing, Inc. (“SRS”). MedMatica and marketing during 2017 has helped us sign new customers which we expect will accelerate organic growth. First, we actively partner with industry participants who cross-market ourSRS provide a broad range of specialty consulting services to hospitals and large healthcare groups, including certain consulting services related to healthcare IT applications services and otherwise provide referrals. Second, our newly launched talkEHR is a free product, but is designed to encourage users to upgradeimplementations, practice management, and revenue cycle management. The total consideration paid at closing was $10 million in cash, net of $1.5 million of escrow withheld. A working capital adjustment of approximately $3.8 million was also paid at closing. The Purchase Agreement provides that if during the 18-month period commencing on June 1, 2021 (“the “Earn-Out Period”), CAC’s EBITDA and revenue targets are achieved, then CAC shall pay an earn-out up to a revenue-generating, premium billing solution. Sincemaximum of $8 million (the “Base Earn-Out”). If during the third quarter launchEarn-Out Period, CAC’s additional and increased EBITDA and revenue targets are achieved, then CAC shall pay an additional earn-out, up to a maximum of talkEHR, more than 200 providers$5 million (the “Additional Earn-Out”, collectively, with the Base Earn-Out, the “Earn-Out”). CAC will have signed-upthe right to offset the Earn-Out against any claim for talkEHRwhich CAC is entitled to indemnification under the Purchase Agreement and a few have already upgraded to our premium billing. As we move forward, we intend to continue to strategically promote talkEHR to new users, while encouraging providers who have already signed-up to actively use talkEHRagainst damages for breaches by the seller of the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions in their day-to-day practice and upgrade to our premium billing solution. Third, a key part of our organic growth strategy for larger groups involves active attendance and participation in industry tradeshows.the Purchase Agreement.

Our offshore operations in the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka accounted for approximately 29%11% and 32%12% of total expenses for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 2016,2021, respectively. A significant portion of those foreign expenses were personnel-related costs (approximately 79% and 75%81% for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and 2016, respectively)approximately 80% for the three months ended March 31, 2021). Because personnel-related costs are significantly lower in Pakistan and Sri Lanka than in the U.S. and many other offshore locations, we believe our offshore operations give us a competitive advantage over many industry participants. All of the medical billing companies that we have acquired use domestic labor or subcontractors from higher cost locations to provide all or a substantial portion of their services. We are able to achieve significant cost reductions as we shift these labor costsand leverage technology to reduce manual work and strategically transition a portion of the remaining manual tasks to our offshore operations.

On October 3, 2016, MTBC Acquisition, Corp. (“MAC”), a newly formed, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MTBC, acquired substantially all the medical billing business and assets of MediGain, LLC, a Texas limited liability company, and its subsidiary Millennium Practice Management Associates, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Millennium”) (together “MediGain”). In connection with this acquisition, MTBC expects to generate at least $10 million of annual revenue from the customers acquired. Although there is no assurance that the customers will remain with MTBC, the Company expects that this acquisition will continue to be accretive to earnings during the remainder of 2017. During the fourth quarter of 2016 and the first three quarters of 2017, we made significant progress at integrating the acquired operations with MTBC, buthighly-specialized, cost-efficient team in the short term, we had a significant number of additional U.S.-based employees from MediGain. This cost, as well as costs from MediGain’s operations in IndiaU.S., the Pakistan Offices and its offshore subcontractors, impacted MTBC’s expenses during the fourth quarter of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017.Sri Lanka.

Key Performance Measures

We consider numerous factors in assessing our performance. Key performance measures used by management, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, are non-GAAP financial measures, which we believe better enable management and investors to analyze and compare the underlying business results from period to period.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Moreover, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of our business as determined in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis, and we provide reconciliations from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share provide an alternative view of performance used by management and we believe that an investor’s understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing these adjusted performance measures.

Key Metrics

In addition to the line items in our consolidated financial statements, we regularly review the following key metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial projections, make strategic business decisions, and assess market share trends and working capital needs.metrics. We believe information on these metrics is useful for investors to understand the underlying trends in our business.

Set forth below are our key operating and financial metrics for RCM customers using our platform, which excludes acquired customers who have not migrated to our platform as well as customers of our clearinghouse, EDI and other services. Revenue from practices using our proprietary platform accounted for approximately 47% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and approximately 75% of our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

22

First Pass Acceptance Rate: We define first pass acceptance rate as the percentage of claims submitted electronically by us, through our platform, to insurers and clearinghouses that are accepted on the first submission and are not rejected for reasons such as insufficient information or improper coding. Our first-time acceptance rate was approximately 96% for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, which compares favorably to the average of the top twelve payers of approximately 95%, as reported by the American Medical Association.

First Pass Resolution Rate: First pass resolution rate measures the percentage of primary claims that are favorably adjudicated and closed upon a single submission. Our first pass resolution rate was approximately 94% for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Days in Accounts Receivable: Days in accounts receivable measures the median number of days between the day a claim is submitted by us on behalf of our customer, and the date the claim is paid to our customer. Our clients’ median days in accounts receivable was approximately 36 days for primary care and 41 days for combined specialties for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017, and approximately 31 days for primary care and 39 days for combined specialties for the twelve months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the national average of 36 and 40 days, respectively, as reported by the Medical Group Management Association in 2016.

Providers and Practices Served: As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022, we provided RCM and related services to an estimated universe of approximately 2,60040,000 providers (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services), representing approximately 740 practices.2,600 independent medical practices and hospitals. In addition, we served approximately 230200 clients who were not medical practices, but are service organizations who serve the healthcare community. AsThe foregoing numbers include clients leveraging any of September 30, 2016, we served approximately 1,820our products or services and are based in part upon estimates in cases where the precise number of practices or providers representing approximately 740 practices.is unknown.

Sources of Revenue

 

Revenue:We primarily derive our revenues from revenue cycle management services,subscription-based technology-enabled business solutions, reported in our Healthcare IT segment, which are typically billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers. This fee includes RCM, as well as the ability to use our electronic health recordsEHR, practice management system and practice managementother software as part of the bundled fee. These paymentssolutions accounted for approximately 89% of our revenues during both the three66% and nine months ended September 30, 2017, and 85% and 86%87% of our revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016,March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Other healthcare IT services, including printing and mailing operations, group purchasing and professional services, represented approximately 25% and 4% of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We earned approximately 2%9% and 9% of our revenue from clearinghouse and EDI clientsmedical practice management services during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2022 and 3%2021. This revenue represents fees based on our actual costs plus a percentage of the operating profit and is reported in our revenue from clearinghouse and EDI clients for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. We earned approximately 5% and 4% of our revenue from printing and mailing operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, and 6% and 2% of our revenue from printing and mailing operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.Medical Practice Management segment.

Operating Expenses

 

Direct Operating Costs.Direct operating cost consists primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to our customers, claims processing costs, costs to operate the three managed practices, including facility lease costs, supplies, insurance and other direct costs related to our services. Costs associated with the implementation of new customers are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating costs do not include depreciation and amortization, which are broken out separately in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Selling and Marketing Expense.Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of compensation and benefits, commissions, travel and advertising expenses.

Research and Development Expense.Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related costs and third-party contractor costs.

General and Administrative Expense.General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel-related expense for administrative employees, including compensation, benefits, travel, occupancyfacility lease costs and insurance, software license fees and outside professional fees.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related costs, software expense and third-party contractor costs.

23

Contingent Consideration.Contingent consideration represents the amountportion of consideration payable to the sellers of some of our acquisitions, the amount of which is based on the achievement of defined performance measures contained in the purchase agreements. Contingent consideration is adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense.Depreciation expense is charged using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Amortization expense is charged on either an accelerated or on a straight-line basis over a period of three or four years for most intangible assets acquired in connection with acquisitions.acquisitions including those intangibles related to the group purchasing services. Amortization expense related to the value of our medical practice management clients is amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of twelve years.

Net loss on lease termination, Impairment and Unoccupied Lease Charges. Net loss on lease termination represents the write-off of leasehold improvements and gains or losses as the result of early lease terminations. Impairment charges represent charges recorded for a leased facility no longer being used by the Company and a non-cancellable vendor contract where the services are no longer being used. Unoccupied lease charges represent the portion of lease and related costs for vacant space not being utilized by the Company.

Interest and Other Income (Expense). Interest expense consists primarily of interest costs related to our working capital line of credit, term loans and amounts due in connection with acquisitions, offset by interest income. Our otherOther income (expense) results primarily from foreign currency transaction gains (losses). and income earned from temporary cash investments.

Income Tax. In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Although the Company is forecasting a return to profitability, it incurred cumulative losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding future U.S. taxable income, which makemakes realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded against all deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2016.2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimatescritical accounting policies and assumptions about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense and related disclosures. We base our estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience, current trends and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements presented in this Report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Leases:

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liability (current portion) and operating lease liability (noncurrent portion) in the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company does not have any finance leases.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.

We use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which are derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.

Our lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will changeexercise that option. Leases with a term of less than 12 months are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheet. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the leased and non-leased components as a single lease component. Some leases include escalation clauses and termination options that are factored into the determination of the future lease payments when appropriate.

Capitalized software costs:

All of our software is considered internal use for accounting purposes, as we do not market or sell our software. As a result, we capitalize certain costs associated with the creation of internally-developed software for internal use. The total of these costs is recorded in Intangible assets – net in our consolidated balance sheets.

We capitalized costs incurred during the application development stage related to our internal use software. Costs incurred during the application development phase are capitalized only when we believe it is probable that the development will result in new events occur,or additional functionality. The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase consist of employee compensation, employee benefits and employee stock- based compensation. Costs related to the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as more experienceincurred. Capitalized internal-use software is acquired,amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life when the asset has been placed in service for general availability.

Significant judgments related to internally-developed software include determining whether it is probable that projects will result in new or additional functionality; concluding on when the application development phase starts and ends; and deciding which costs, especially employee compensation costs, should be capitalized. Additionally, there is judgment applied to the useful lives of capitalized software; we have concluded that the useful lives for capitalized internally-developed software is three years.

Company management employs its best estimates and assumptions in determining the appropriateness of the judgments noted above on a project-by-project basis during initial capitalization as additional information is obtained andwell as subsequent measurement. While we believe that our operating environment changes. On a regular basis, we review our accounting policies,approach to estimates assumptions and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty,is reasonable, actual results could differ, from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.lead to an increase or decrease in expense.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying amounts of internally-developed capitalized software in use was $13.1 million and $11.6 million, respectively. The methods, estimates and judgments that we useincrease in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations. the capitalized software costs represents the continued investment in proprietary technology.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those described in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2021, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2017.14, 2022.
