Great Elm Group, Inc. ~~(the~~(referred to as the Company or GEG) is a holding company incorporated in Delaware. The Company currently has 32 business operating segments: durable medical equipment and investment management, ~~and real estate,~~ with general corporate representing unallocated costs and activity to arrive at consolidated operations. The Company is pursuing business development opportunities in durable medical equipment, investment management ~~real estate~~ and other industries.

On September 27, 2016, the Company’s wholly-owned SEC-registered investment advisor subsidiary Great Elm Capital Management, Inc. (GECM), a Delaware corporation, entered into an investment management agreement (the IMA) with Great Elm Capital Corp. (GECC), a publicly-traded business development company incorporated in Maryland.

On November 3, 2016, Full Circle Capital Corporation merged with and into GECC and GECM hired the employees of MAST Capital Management, LLC (MAST Capital), a Delaware limited liability company, to manage the assets of GECC. Through the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, GECC GP Corp. (GP Corp.), the Company acquired assets and assumed related liabilities associated with the on-going operations of GECM. A portion of the non-controlling interest of GP Corp. was owned by MAST Capital, and its affiliates and officers. In March 2021, the Company purchased all interests in GP Corp. held by MAST Capital and its affiliates.

On June 29, 2021, GP Corp assigned the rights to the Profit Sharing Agreement (as defined in Note 6 – Related Party Transactions) with GECM, their intercompany obligation under the GP Corp. Note (as defined in Note 12 – Borrowings) and other assets and liabilities to their wholly-owned subsidiary Great Elm Capital GP, LLC (GEC GP). Subsequent to the assignment, the Company exchanged their 98.2% interests in GP Corp. for an identical 98.2% direct interest in GP Corp.’s wholly-owned subsidiary GEC GP. Following the consummation of the taxable reorganization, the Company no longer has an interest in GP Corp.

On September 7, 2018, the Company, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Great Elm DME Holdings, Inc. (DME Holdings), acquired an 80.1% equity interest in Great Elm DME, Inc. (DME Inc.) an entity formed to acquire and combine two companies, Valley Healthcare Holding, LLC and Northwest Medical, LLC., which both specialize in the distribution of respiratory care equipment, including primarily positive air pressure equipment and supplies, ventilators and oxygen equipment and operate in Arizona, Nebraska Oregon, Washington and Alaska. The Company has subsequently expanded its durable medical equipment business to Kansas, Iowa, and Missouri through acquisitions in 2019 and 2021.

On May 31, 2021, our wholly-owned subsidiary DME Holdings exchanged their 80.1% interests in DME Inc. for an identical 80.1% direct interest in DME Inc.’s subsidiary Great Elm Healthcare, LLC (HC LLC), which is the sole owner of the durable medical equipment operating subsidiaries. Following the consummation of the taxable reorganization, the Company no longer has an interest in DME Inc.

On December 29, 2020, the Company completed a reorganization of the Company's corporate structure, where Great Elm Capital Group, Inc. (GEC) changed its name to Forest Investments, Inc. (Forest) and became a wholly owned subsidiary of a new holding company, Great Elm Group, Inc. Outstanding shares of Forest under the ticker symbol “GEC” were automatically converted into shares of common stock of Great Elm Group, Inc., ticker symbol “GEG”. Forest common stock was then delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market and subsequently deregistered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange ~~Act.~~Act of 1934, as amended. The Holding Company Reorganization (as defined in Note 46 – ~~Holding Company Reorganization)~~Related Party Transactions) was a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company’s shareholders.

We launched our real estate business in March 2018 with an investment of $2.7 million in a majority-interest in 2 Class A office buildings totaling 257,000 square feet situated on 17 acres of land in Fort Myers, Florida (collectively, the Property). The Property was fully-leased, on a triple-net basis, to a single tenant through March 31, 2030. On June 23, 2021, the Company sold its real estate business for $4.6 million in cash.

The accompanying ~~condensed~~ consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Wholly-owned subsidiaries include ~~Great Elm Capital Management, Inc. (~~GECM,), Great Elm Opportunities GP, Inc. (GEO GP), Great Elm FM Acquisition, Inc. (FM Acquisition), DME Holdings ~~Inc.~~ and Great Elm DME Manager, ~~LLC.~~LLC (DME Manager). Majority-owned subsidiaries (including those divested during the year) include Forest, ~~GECC~~GEC GP, GP Corp., Great Elm FM ~~Acquisition,~~Holdings, Inc.~~, Great Elm~~ (FM Holdings ~~Inc.~~), CRIC IT Fort Myers, LLC, (~~CRIC IT), Great Elm~~ DME Inc. (~~DME Inc.~~) and ~~Great Elm Healthcare, LLC (~~HC LLC) and its ~~seven~~eight wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition, we have determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain variable interest entities, and therefore the operations of those entities have been included in our consolidated results for the relevant periods.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes which are normally included in the Company’s Form 10-K. These financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items or items discussed herein) that management believes are necessary to fairly state results for the interim periods presented. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results of operations. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, presented herein, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year-ended June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

All assets and liabilities related to discontinued operations are excluded from the notes unless otherwise noted. In addition, the historical results of the real estate business operating segment have been reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 as discontinued operations. See Note 4 – Discontinued Operations.

The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates all of these estimates and assumptions. ~~The most important of~~Included in these estimates and assumptions are items that relate to revenue recognition, recognition of rental income, the valuation of excess and obsolete inventories, depreciable lives of equipment, impairment of long lived tangible and intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, fair value measurements including ~~the initial bifurcation and subsequent measurement of embedded derivatives and features and hybrid instruments,~~ stock-based compensation and contingent consideration, estimates associated with the application of acquisition accounting, and the value of lease liabilities and corresponding right to use assets. Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information, actual results could be different from these estimates.

The Company consolidates the assets, liabilities, and operating results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries; majority-owned subsidiaries; and subsidiaries in which we hold a controlling financial interest as of the financial statement date. In most cases, a controlling financial interest reflects ownership of a majority of the voting interests. We consolidate a variable interest entity (VIE) when we possess both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and we are either obligated to absorb the losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE or we hold the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Non-controlling interests in the Company’s subsidiaries are reported as a component of liabilities for mandatorily redeemable interests, temporary equity for contingently redeemable interests or permanent equity, separate from the Company’s equity. See Note 1415 – Non-Controlling Interests and Preferred Stock of Subsidiaries. Results of operations attributable to the non-controlling interests are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company has 32 business operating segments: durable medical equipment and investment management, ~~and real estate,~~ with general corporate representing unallocated costs and activity to arrive at consolidated operations. The Company regularly reviews each segment for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance.

Cash and cash equivalents are comprised of cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase. Cash equivalents consist primarily of exchange-traded money market funds. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or the issuers of these investments to the extent the amounts on deposit or invested are in excess of amounts that are insured.

Substantially all of the accounts receivable balance relates to the durable medical equipment business. Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal sales and rental terms and represent the amount estimated to be collected from the customers and, if applicable, the third-party private insurance provider or government program (collectively, Payors), based on the contractual agreements. The Company does not require collateral in connection with its customer transactions and aside from verifying insurance coverage, does not perform credit checks on patient customers. Revenue and accounts receivable have been constrained to the extent that billed amounts exceed the amounts estimated to be collected. The constrained transaction price relates primarily to expected billing adjustments with the Payors and patient customers. Management’s evaluation of variable consideration takes into account such factors as past experience, information about specific receivables, Payors and patient customers. The revenue reserves related to constraints on variable consideration were ~~$4.1~~$1.8 million and ~~$4.8~~$2.5 million as of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, the Company recognized reductions to revenue of $0.8 million and $1.8 million, and $1.5 million and $2.6 ~~million, and $0.5million and $1.4~~ million, respectively, related to such constraints. See Note 3 – Revenue.

The assessment of variable consideration to be constrained is based on estimates, and ultimate losses may vary from current estimates. As adjustments to these estimates become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known. There were no material adjustments to revenues made in the six months ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 relating to prior periods. Changes in constraints on variable consideration are recorded as a component of net revenues.

The Company generally does not allow returns from customers for reasons not covered under the manufacturer’s standard warranty. Therefore, there is no provision for sales return reserves. The Company does not have significant bad debt experience with Payors, and therefore the allowance for doubtful accounts is immaterial.

As of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had unbilled receivables of approximately ~~$1.3~~$0.1 million and ~~$1.9~~$0.3 million, respectively, that relate to transactions where the Company has the ultimate right to invoice a Payor under the terms of the arrangement but are not currently billed. ~~Previously disclosed unbilled amounts have been updated to reflect current presentation.~~ These unbilled amounts are included in accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

When calculating earnings per share, we are required to adjust for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 12,917,292 potential shares of common stock, including 10,139,031 potential shares of Company common stock issuable upon conversion of Convertible Notes and 2,778,261 potential shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, that are not included in the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation because to do so would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had 12,307,863 potential shares of common stock, including 9,008,612 ~~potential~~ shares of ~~Company~~ common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company Convertible Notes ~~(as defined in Note 12 – Convertible Notes)~~ and 3,299,251 potential shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, that are not included in the diluted net ~~loss~~income (loss) per share ~~calculations~~calculation because to do so would be antidilutive.

As of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019,~~2020, the Company had an aggregate of 153,451 and 732,909 issued shares, respectively, that are subject to forfeiture by the employee at a nominal price if service ~~and~~and/or performance milestones are not met. The Company does not account for such shares as being outstanding for accounting purposes since they are unvested and subject to forfeiture.

Under the GP Corp. Note Agreement, GECC GP Corp. agreed not to declare any dividends until the GP Corp. Note is satisfied. Under the Senior Note and Subordinated Note, CRIC IT Fort Myers, LLC is restricted from paying any dividends until the Notes are satisfied.

~~Fair Value Measurements~~Accounting for Convertible Instruments. In August ~~2018,~~2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models. Under ASU ~~2018-13,~~ ~~Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes~~2020-06, a convertible debt instrument will generally be reported as a single liability at its amortized cost with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Consequently, the interest rate of convertible debt instruments will be closer to the ~~Disclosure Requirements~~coupon interest rate. In addition, ASU 2020-06 eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for ~~Fair Value Measurement, resulting~~convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. The guidance in ~~various disclosures related to fair value measurements being eliminated, modified or supplemented.~~ ASU ~~2018-13~~2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2023, including interim ~~and annual~~ periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, ~~2019,~~2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on July 1, 2021 using the full retrospective method.

Prior to adoption, under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options ("ASC 470-20"), we had separately accounted for the liability and equity components upon the original issuance of our Convertible Notes in February 2020 due to the existence of a temporary cash conversion feature. Under ASC 470-20, the equity component of the Convertible Notes was recorded as additional paid-in capital within stockholders’ equity on our consolidated balance sheet and generated an ~~option~~original issue discount on the carrying value of the Convertible Notes. As a result, prior to ~~early adopt any eliminated or modified disclosures, and~~the adoption of ASU 2020-06, we recorded a greater amount of non-cash interest expense as the discounted carrying value is accreted up to ~~delay~~their face value over the Convertible Notes term. Under the full retrospective method, the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the adoption of the ~~additional disclosures, until~~accounting standard in those periods. The following tables shows the ~~effective date. The Company early adopted~~impact of the ~~eliminated and modified disclosures of ASU 2018-13 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and, as a result, updated its~~adoption on our previously reported financial statement disclosures accordingly. A modified narrative description of measurement uncertainty for level 3 fair value measurements was applied prospectively, with all other amendments applied retrospectively. The Company has adopted the supplemental disclosures as of July 1, 2020.information:

Current Expected Credit ~~Losses~~Losses. In June 2016, the FASB issued ~~Accounting Standards Update (~~ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which changes the impairment model for financial instruments, including trade receivables from an incurred loss method to a new forward looking approach, based on expected losses. The estimate of expected credit losses will require entities to incorporate considerations of historical experience, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the potential impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate ~~Reform~~Reform. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, in response to the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority which announced the desire to phase out the use of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) by the end of 2021. The provisions provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform on financial reporting due to the cessation of LIBOR if certain criteria are met. If LIBOR ceases to exist, we may need to renegotiate outstanding notes payable outstanding which extend beyond 2021 with the respective counterparties. Adoption of the provisions in ASU 2020-04 are optional and effective from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our financial statements.

~~Accounting for Convertible Instruments~~ ~~In August 2020, the~~ ~~FASB~~ ~~issued~~ ~~ASU 2020-06~~, ~~Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity~~, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models. Under ASU 2020-06, a convertible debt instrument will generally be reported as a single liability at its amortized cost with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Consequently, the interest rate of convertible debt instruments will be closer to the coupon interest rate. In addition, ASU 2020-06 eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. The guidance in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenues (Topic 606) the Company performed the following steps: (i) identified the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determined whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measured the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocated the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognized revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company sells durable medical equipment, replacement parts and supplies to customers and recognizes revenue at the point control is transferred through delivery to the customer. Each piece of equipment, part or supply is distinct and separately priced thus they each represent a single performance obligation. The revenue is allocated amongst the performance obligations based upon the relative standalone selling price method, however, items are typically all delivered or supplied together. The customer and, if applicable, the Payors are generally charged at the time that the product is sold, although separate layers of insurance coverage may need to be invoiced before final billings may occur.

The Company also provides sleep study services to customers and recognizes revenue when the results of the sleep study are complete as that is when the performance obligation is met.

The transaction price on both equipment sales and sleep studies is the amount that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods and services provided. Due to the nature of the durable medical equipment business, billing adjustments customarily occur during the collections process when explanations of benefits are received by Payors, and as amounts are deferred to secondary Payors or to patient responsibility. As such, we constrain the transaction price for the difference between the gross charge and what we believe we will collect from Payors and from patients. The transaction price therefore is predominantly based on contractual payment rates determined by the Payors. The Company does not generally contract with uninsured customers. We determine our estimates of billing adjustments based upon contractual agreements, our policies and historical experience. While the rates are fixed for the product or service with the customer and the Payors, such amounts typically include co-payments, co-insurance and deductibles, which vary in amounts, from the patient customer. The Company includes in the transaction price only the amount that the Company expects to be entitled, which is substantially all of the Payor billings at contractual rates. The transaction price is initially constrained by the amount of customer co-payments we estimate will not be collected.

Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain Payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application or claim denial. The Company constrains revenue for these estimated adjustments. There were no material changes in estimates recorded in the three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, relating to prior periods.

The payment terms and conditions of customer contracts vary by customer type and the products and services offered.

The Company may provide shipping services prior to the point of delivery and has concluded that the services represent a fulfilment activity and not a performance obligation. Returns and refunds are not accepted on either equipment sales or sleep study services. The Company does not offer warranties to customers in excess of the manufacturer’s warranty. Any taxes due upon sale of the products or services are not recognized as revenue. The Company does not incur contract acquisition costs. The Company does not have any partially or unfilled performance obligations related to contracts with customers. However, during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company applied for and received $4.4 million in advanced payments from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (~~CMS~~(CMS)) under their Accelerated and Advance Payment Program, which was expanded to increase cash flow to providers of services and suppliers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~These advance payments will begin to be recouped against~~CMS began recoupments during fiscal 2021, leaving a remaining balance of $3.5 million as of June 30, 2021. During the ~~Company’s future Medicare~~three and ~~Medicaid claims beginning in the fourth quarter~~six months ended December 31, 2021, we issued recoupments of ~~our fiscal year~~$1.2 million and $2.3 million, leaving a remaining balance of $1.2 million as of December 31, 2021. These amounts are included within deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company has 0 other contract liabilities as of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 or ~~September~~June 30, ~~2020.~~2021.

Included in sales and services revenue are unbilled amounts for which the revenue recognition criteria had been met as of period end but were not yet billed to the Payor. The estimate of net unbilled rental revenue recognized is based on historical trends and estimates of future collectability. As of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, net unbilled sales and services revenue is approximately ~~$0.8~~$0.1 million and ~~$1.2~~$0.2 million, respectively, and is included in accounts receivable.

The Company recognizes revenue from its investment management business at amounts that reflect the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for providing services to its customer. Investment management revenue primarily consists of fees based on a percentage of assets under management; fees based on the performance of managed assets; and administrative fees. Fees are based on agreements with each investment product and may be terminated at any time by either party subject to the specific terms of each respective agreement.

The Company earns management fees based on the investment management ~~agreement~~agreements GECM has with ~~GECC.~~GECC and other private funds managed by GECM (collectively, the Funds). The performance obligation is satisfied over time as the services are rendered, since ~~GECC~~the Funds simultaneously ~~receives~~receive and ~~consumes~~consume the benefits provided as GECM performs services. ~~Under GECC’s investment management agreement with GECM,~~Management fee rates range from 1% to 1.5% of the ~~base~~ management fee ~~from GECC is calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of GECC’s average adjusted gross assets. The base management fee is calculated based~~assets specified with each agreement. Based on the ~~average value of GECC’s gross assets, excluding cash and cash equivalents, at the end~~terms of the ~~two most recently completed calendar quarters,~~specific agreement, management fees may be calculated and billed in advance or in arrears of the period, no less frequently than quarterly. Management fee revenue is recognized over time as the services are provided. ~~Management fees are billed quarterly in arrears.~~

The Company earns incentive fees based on the investment management agreements GECM has with GECC and separately managed accounts. Where an investment management agreement includes both management fees and incentive fees, the performance obligation is considered to be a single obligation for both fees. Incentive fees are variable consideration associated with the GECC investment management agreement. Incentive fees are recognized based on investment performance during the period, subject to the achievement of minimum return levels or high-water marks, in accordance with the terms of the respective investment management agreements. Incentive fees range from 5.0% to 20.0% of the performance-based metric specified within each agreement. Because of the uncertainty of when incentive fees will be collected due to market conditions and investment performance, incentive fees are fully constrained and not recorded until received and the probability of significant reversal of the fees is eliminated in accordance with the respective investment management agreements. ~~As of December 31, 2020, there is $9.2 million in~~The incentive fees which have been earned per the terms of the investment management agreements but remain fully constrained as of December 31, 2021 are not ~~recognized as they are still subject to~~yet determinable pending the ~~constraints described above.~~completion of GECC’s annual financial close and reporting process.

The Company earns administration fees based on the administration agreement GECM has with GECC whereby GECC reimburses GECM for costs incurred in performing administrative functions for GECC. This revenue is recognized over time as the services are performed. Administrative fees are billed quarterly in arrears, which is consistent with the timing of the delivery of services and reflect agreed upon rates for the services provided. The services are accounted for as a single performance obligation that is a series of distinct services with substantially the same pattern of transfer as the services are provided on a daily basis.

Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis, based on contractual lease terms with fixed and determinable increases over the non-cancellable term of the related lease when collectability is reasonably assured. The Company leases durable medical equipment to customers for a fixed monthly amount on a month-to-month basis. The contractual length of the lease term varies based on the type of equipment that is rented to the customer, but generally is from 10 to ~~36-months.~~36 months. In the case of capped rental agreements, title to the equipment transfers to the customer at the end of the contractual rental period. The customer has the right to cancel the lease at any time during the rental period for a subsequent month’s rental and payments are generally billed in advance on a month-to-month basis. Under Topic 842, rental income from operating leases is recognized on a month-to-month basis, based on contractual lease terms when collectability is reasonably assured. Certain customer co-payments are included in revenue when considered probable of payment.

The lease term begins on the date products are delivered to patients and are recorded at amounts estimated to be received under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicare, private payors, and Medicaid. Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain Payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application or claim denial. There were no material changes in estimates recorded in the six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, relating to prior periods.

Although invoicing typically occurs at the beginning of the monthly rental period, we recognize revenue from rentals on a daily basis. Since rental agreements can commence at any time during a given month, we defer revenue related to the remaining monthly rental period as of period end. Deferred revenue related to rentals was $1.0 million and ~~$1.3~~$1.0 million as of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

Included in rental revenue are unbilled amounts for which the revenue recognition criteria had been met as of period end but were not yet billed to the Payor. Net unbilled rental revenue is recognized to the extent payment is probable. As of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, net unbilled rental revenue is approximately ~~$0.5~~$0.05 million and ~~$0.7~~$0.1 million, respectively, and is included in accounts receivable.

~~Consistent~~On June 23, 2021, the Company’s majority-owned indirect subsidiary FM Acquisition, entered into an agreement with Monomoy Properties Fort Myers, LLC (Monomoy FM) to sell the ~~leases of durable medical equipment, the Company recognizes rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the lease. Under~~Company’s real estate business to Monomoy FM. Pursuant to the terms of the ~~lease,~~Purchase Agreement, the proceeds of the sale were subsequently reinvested in newly issued membership interests of Monomoy Properties, LLC (Monomoy Properties), a privately-held fund comprised of a portfolio of net leased industrial real estate assets.

The sale of the real estate business, which has historically been disclosed as its own reportable segment, represents a strategic shift away from the direct ownership and operation of real estate properties. Accordingly, our historical financial information has been recast to present the activities of the real estate business within discontinued operations, and the assets and liabilities of the real estate business as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations. As a passive investor in Monomoy Properties and with a membership interest of approximately 5%, we have determined that we have no significant continuing involvement with the real estate business.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the Company’s net income from discontinued operations presented in the consolidated statements of operations:

On August 31, 2021, through its majority-owned subsidiary, HC LLC, the Company ~~may recover from~~acquired the ~~tenant certain expenses, including: real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses.~~power mobility assets of MedOne Healthcare LLC (MedOne) high service power mobility provider in Arizona. The ~~recovery~~acquisition is accounted for as a business combination. The Company expects this acquisition to achieve synergies through integrating these operations into our existing durable medical equipment operations. Operating results of ~~these expenses is recognized~~the acquired businesses have been included in ~~rental income in~~ the ~~accompanying condensed~~ consolidated statements of operations since August 31, 2021.

The purchase consideration was $2.0 million, comprised of $1.25 million paid at closing, $0.25 million of amounts due to seller pending satisfaction of certain indemnification obligations, and $0.5 million representing the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration. We have recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for MedOne, which resulted in goodwill of $1.9 million. Goodwill was assigned to the durable medical equipment segment and is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of the acquired business. All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The presentation of pro forma financial disclosures are not required in connection with the MedOne acquisition.

The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Company to pay up to $1.0 million of additional consideration to the seller if certain revenue thresholds are achieved for each of the 12 month periods ending September 1, 2022, and 2023. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date was $0.5 million. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model include volatility of 23.3% and a discount rate of 10.3%. The contingent consideration is included within other liabilities in the ~~same periods~~consolidated balance sheets.

On March 1, 2021, through its majority-owned subsidiary, DME Inc., the Company acquired Advanced Medical DME, LLC and PM Sleep Lab, LLC (AMPM), providers of sleep testing, positive air pressure, and other respiratory products and services in 9 locations throughout Kansas and Missouri. The acquisition is accounted for as a business combination. The Company expects to achieve synergies and costs reductions through integrating these operations into our existing durable medical equipment operations. Operating results of the acquired businesses have been included in the consolidated statements of operations since March 1, 2021.

The purchase consideration was $1.1 million, comprised of $0.4 million paid at closing net of cash acquired, $0.3 placed in escrow for potential satisfaction of certain indemnification obligations, and $0.4 million representing the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration. We have recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price for AMPM, which resulted in goodwill of $0.7 million and intangible assets, including trade names of $0.4 million. Goodwill was assigned to the durable medical equipment segment and is attributable primarily to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of the acquired business. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The presentation of pro forma financial disclosures are not required in connection with the AMPM acquisition.

The contingent consideration arrangement requires the Company to pay up to $2.1 million of additional consideration to the seller if certain revenue thresholds are achieved for the 12 months ending September 1, 2022. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date was $0.4 million. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model include volatility of 40.0% and a discount rate of 10.3%. The contingent consideration is included within other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

Related party transactions are measured in part by the amount of consideration paid or received as established and agreed by the parties. Consideration paid for such services in each case is the negotiated value.

In connection with the acquisition of the durable medical equipment businesses in September 2018, DME Inc. and its subsidiaries entered into a term loan (the Corbel Facility) with Corbel Capital Partners SBIC, L.P. (Corbel). Jeffrey S. Serota, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, serves as Vice Chairman to Corbel Capital Partners. Corbel previously held an interest in one of our acquired durable medical equipment businesses and was one of the sellers in our acquisition of the business. As a result of the acquisition, at December 31, 2021 Corbel holds a non-controlling interest in HC LLC. Pursuant to the Corbel Facility, Corbel was paid a structuring fee and a quarterly monitoring fee. In conjunction with the JPM Transactions (as defined below), the Corbel Facility was repaid early on December 29, 2020, and DME Inc. paid a deferred structuring fee as well as a prepayment penalty. See Note 12 - Borrowings for additional information on the Corbel Facility and Note 15 – Non-Controlling Interests and Preferred Stock of Subsidiaries.

On December 18, 2020, the Company purchased from JPM a 21% common stock interest in Ligado Networks, LLC (Ligado), a privately-held Company. The common stock interest does not convey the ability to exercise significant influence over Ligado, and therefore does not require accounting in accordance with the equity method. We have elected to account for this investment, which does not have a readily-determinable fair value, at cost minus impairment. This investment is included in prepaid and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet.

On December 21, 2020, GEC announced plans to create a new public holding company, Great Elm Group, Inc. (the Company) by implementing a holding company reorganization (the Holding Company Reorganization). Following the Holding Company Reorganization, the Company became the successor issuer to GEC.

~~In connection with the acquisition of the real estate business in March 2018, the Company issued the former owner a 19.9% interest in Great Elm FM Holdings, Inc. (GE FM Holdings). See Note 14 – Non-Controlling Interests and Preferred Stock of Subsidiaries.~~

In conjunction with the JPM Transactions, on December 29, 2020 Forest sold Forest Preferred Stock and the Company sold common stock in Forest to JPM for cash consideration of $35.0 million and $2.7 million, respectively. As a result of these transactions, JPM holds a non-controlling interest in Forest. See Note 14 – Non-Controlling Interests and Preferred Stock of Subsidiaries.

~~On December 18, 2020, the Company purchased from JPM a 21% common stock interest in Ligado Networks, LLC (Ligado~~), a privately-held Company. The common stock interest does not convey the ability to exercise significant influence over Ligado, and therefore does not require accounting in accordance with the equity method. We have elected to account for this investment, which does not have a readily-determinable fair value, at cost minus impairment. This investment is included in prepaid and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

GAAP provides a framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

All financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis have been segregated into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the

fair value at the measurement date. The assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis are summarized in the tables below:

The following is a reconciliation of changes in contingent consideration, ~~arrangement required~~a Level 3 liability:

The valuation techniques applied to investments held by the Company and by the Consolidated Funds vary depending on the nature of the investment.

Securities traded on a national securities exchange are stated at the close price on the valuation date. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are classified as Level 1.

The Company values investments in private funds using net asset value (NAV) as reported by each fund’s investment manager. The private funds calculate NAV in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of FASB Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies, as of the valuation date. Investments valued using NAV as a practical expedient are not categorized within the fair value hierarchy.

As of December 31, 2021 investments in private funds consist of our investment in Monomoy Properties, an industrial real estate-focused fund, and Sharp Alpha Fund I, LP (Sharp Alpha), a closed-end limited partnership focused on gaming technologies. Monomoy Properties allows redemptions annually with 90 days’ notice subject to a one-year lockup from the date of initial investment. Sharp Alpha does not allow for redemptions. Distributions will be received as the underlying assets are liquidated over the life of the fund, which is expected to be approximately 10 years. The Company had unfunded commitments of $0.3 million as of December 31, 2021.

In conjunction with the acquisition of AMPM on March 1, 2021, the Company entered into a contingent consideration agreement that requires the Company to pay up to $2.1 million ~~of additional consideration to the former shareholders~~if certain revenue thresholds of the ~~durable medical equipment businesses if certain earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) thresholds, as adjusted per the terms of the purchase agreement, were~~acquired business are achieved for the 12 months ~~ended December 31, 2019.~~ending September 1, 2022. The Company determined that the EBITDA achieved, as adjusted per terms of the contract, for the 12 months ended December 31, 2019 was below the earnout threshold for payout. As such, during the year ended June 30, 2020,estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration ~~was updated to 0. This determination~~using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model as of the ~~earnout was finalized~~acquisition date include volatility of 40.0% and ~~agreed to~~a discount rate of 10.3%. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model as of December 31, 2021 include volatility of 25.2% and a discount rate of 10.3%.

In conjunction with the ~~former shareholders~~acquisition of MedOne on August 31, 2021, the Company entered into a separate contingent consideration agreement that requires the Company to pay up to $1.0 million if certain revenue thresholds of the ~~durable medical equipment businesses during~~acquired business are achieved for the ~~quarter ended~~12 months ending September 1, 2022 and September 1, 2023. The Company estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model as of the acquisition date include revenue forecasts, volatility of 23.3% and a discount rate of 10.3%. The key assumptions in applying the Monte Carlo simulation model as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021 include volatility of 22.8% and a discount rate of 10.3%.

The contingent consideration is included within the other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

On December 29, 2020, in conjunction with the JPM Transactions, the Company issued HC LLC Series A-2 Preferred Stock to our consolidated subsidiary, Forest. See Note 1415 – Non-Controlling Interests and Preferred Stock of Subsidiaries. An embedded derivative was identified in the instrument requiring bifurcation from the host instrument as a derivative to be carried at fair value. The value of the derivative related to a participation feature upon the sale of the durable medical equipment business. As of ~~the issuance date,~~period end, the fair value ~~was~~of this derivative is determined using an option pricing model based on the ~~transaction price. The key assumption used in the option pricing model is a volatility rate of 72.7% and an option term of 3 years. Subsequent to the issuance date, fair~~estimated value of ~~this derivative is determined using~~HC LLC derived from a discounted cash flow income approach and a guideline public company market approach. The key assumptions in applying the valuation approach as of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 include financial forecasts of the durable medical equipment business and a volatility rate of 46.0% (level 3 inputs in accordance with the GAAP fair value hierarchy). The key assumptions in applying the valuation approach as of June 30, 2021 include financial forecasts of the durable medical equipment business, a discount rate of ~~17%~~14.5% and a ~~discount for lack~~volatility rate of ~~marketability of 33% (level 3 inputs in accordance with the GAAP fair value hierarchy)~~50.4%. The fair value of the embedded derivative as of ~~both the issuance date and~~ December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and June 30, 2021, was ~~$6.5 million. However, as~~$3.7 million and $5.8 million respectively. Since the HC LLC Series A-2 Preferred Stock are issued to Forest, a consolidated subsidiary, the instruments and their effects on our operations have been eliminated in consolidation and therefore the valuation of the participation feature is reflected as 0 within the table above. However, this valuation does impact our segment results and non-controlling interest accounts.

The Company is the owner of approximately 23.6% (or 5,425,644 shares) of the outstanding shares of GECC and values its ownership based on the NASDAQ-listed market price of GECC common stock (a Level 1 input in accordance with the GAAP fair value hierarchy).

Through its majority-owned subsidiary ~~DME Inc.,~~HC LLC, and the subsidiaries of ~~DME Inc.,~~HC LLC, the Company owns medical equipment which is leased to customers. The Company’s customers consist primarily of patients through their clinical providers including medical centers, clinics and hospices and the Company has lease arrangements with these patients. In addition, the arrangements between the Company and its customers are impacted by arrangements between the Company and Payors. The Payors may cover a portion or all of the rental payments under the agreements between the Company and its customers. The patient is responsible for any residual co-payments.

The lease terms may be for a pre-determined time period, generally 10 months to 36 months; however, the customer may cancel the lease at any time and for any reason without penalty and therefore, the Company treats all leases as month-to-month leases. Upon termination of the lease, the equipment, if not aged beyond its useful life, may be refurbished and subsequently sold or leased to another customer. As the leases are month-to-month, there are no future lease receivables under the terms of the current leases.

~~The Company’s majority-owned subsidiary CRIC IT Fort Myers LLC (Property Owner) owns a fee simple interest in 2 Class A office buildings, Gartner I and Gartner II (collectively, the~~ ~~Property). The Property is fully leased, on a triple net basis, to Gartner, Inc. (Gartner~~) until March 31, 2030, which may be extended at the option of Gartner in accordance with the terms of the lease. The Gartner I lease contains two five-year extensions and the Gartner II lease contains three five-year extensions (collectively, the ~~Leases~~). Under the terms of the Leases, the renewal rates are equal to 95% of the then fair market rent, and the tenant does not have a purchase option at the end of the lease term. The leases require Gartner to make a base monthly lease payment of approximately $0.4 million as calculated on a straight-line basis over the remaining expected lease term plus additional rent payments for additional costs. Additional rental payments are due for Property Owner costs, such as property taxes, management fees, and insurance costs, as incurred. See Note 3 – Revenue for additional discussion of rental revenues.

The Property is subject to mortgage, security agreement and assignment of leases and rents with the senior and subordinated lenders, which is further described in Note 10 - Borrowings. The Property Owner has assigned all rights, title and interest in and to the Property and the Leases to the senior and subordinated lenders and all amounts received are paid to a trust which funds the operating costs associated with the Property. The Company does not have rights to these rent payments while the borrowings remain outstanding.

~~The Company expects to derive value from the residual value at the end of the existing lease term by further leasing the assets or through a sale transaction.~~

All of the Company’s leases are operating leases. Certain of the leases have both lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to account for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. The following table provides additional details of the leases presented in the balance sheets:

The facility leases include offices, retail and warehouse space and sleep labs. The leases have original or amended terms ranging from 12 to 96 months, some of which include an additional option to extend the lease for up to 120 months. Certain of these leases have variable rental payments tied to a consumer price index or include additional rental payments for maintenance costs, taxes and insurance, which are accounted for as variable rent.

The vehicles leases have original lease terms of 60 months from the commencement date of each lease with no option to extend. Each lease may be terminated by the lessee with 30-days’ notice after the first 13 months of the lease subject to certain early termination costs, including residual value guarantees. The lease costs include variable payments for taxes and other fees.

Equipment leases consist of office equipment with original lease terms ranging from 36 to 48 months from the commencement date of each lease and may include an option to extend or purchase at the end of the lease term. Certain of these leases include additional rental costs for taxes, insurance and additional fees in addition to the base rental costs.

The Company has a lease for office space located in Waltham, MA. This office space is allocated between the investment management and general corporate segments. On the commencement date of the lease, the non-cancellable term was for eighty-eight months from the occupancy date of June 1, 2017 and contains an option to extend for an additional sixty-month period.

The lease payments commenced on October 1, 2017, four months after the Company began to occupy the space. On an annual basis, the lease payments increase at an average rate of approximately 2.4% from $28 to $32 thousand per month.

The Senior Note was recorded at an estimated fair value of $52.2 million, reflecting a discount of $2.6 million from the face amount; and the Subordinated Note was recorded at $5.8 million, reflecting a premium of $3.1 million. The discount and premium amortize over the life of the notes.they eliminate in consolidation.

The Senior Note matures on March 15, 2030, accrues interest at a rate of 3.49% per annum and is secured by a first lien mortgage on the Property and an Assignment of Leases and Rents. The Senior Note requires monthly principal and interest payments through the maturity date, with the last payment of $18.4 million on March 15, 2030. The principal and interest due on the Senior Note may be prepaid at the option of the borrower, based on an amount determined by discounting the remaining principal and interest payments at a rate equal to an applicable premium in excess of a rate corresponding to the specified U.S. Treasury security over the remaining average life of the Senior Note.

The Subordinated Note matures on March 15, 2030, accrues interest at a rate of 15.0% per annum, and is secured by a second lien mortgage on the Property and an Assignment of Leases and Rents. The Subordinated Note is a capital appreciation note, whereby the monthly interest is capitalized to the principal balance and due at maturity. Accordingly, a $16.3 million payment is due on March 15, 2030. The principal and interest due on the Subordinate Note may be prepaid at the option of the borrower, based on an amount determined by discounting the remaining principal and interest payments at a rate equal to an applicable premium in excess of a rate corresponding to the specified U.S. Treasury security over the remaining average life of the Subordinated Note.

The note agreements include negative covenants that restrict the Property Owner’s business operations to ownership and lease of the Property, limit additional indebtedness, require maintenance of insurance and other customary requirements related to the Property. Events of default include non-payment of amounts when due, inability to pay indebtedness or material change in the business operations or financial condition of the Property Owner or the lease tenant that in the Lender’s reasonable determination would reasonably be expected to materially impair the value of the Property, prevent timely repayment of the notes or performance of any material obligations under the note and related agreements. The payments under the notes are also guaranteed on a full and several basis by the non-controlling interest holder of the Property Owner. Both the Senior Note and Subordinated Note are non-recourse to the Company, but are secured by the Property, the rights associated with the Leases and the stock owned by the Company in the Property Owner. See Note 9 – Lessor Operating Leases.

~~On February 26, 2020, the Company issued Convertible Notes at par with an aggregate principal balance of $30 million due February 26, 2030 (the~~ ~~Convertible Notes~~). As of December 31, ~~2020~~2021 the total principal balance of Convertible Notes outstanding was ~~$31.3~~$35.2 million including cumulative interest paid-in-kind. The convertible notes (Convertible Notes) are held by a consortium of investors, including ~~$13.6~~$16.6 million issued to certain related parties. Such Convertible Notes issued to related parties include:

The Convertible Notes accrue interest at 5.0% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on June 30 and December 31, commencing June 30, 2020, in cash or in kind at the option of the Company. Each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes are convertible into 288.0018 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to the terms therein, prior to maturity at the option of the holder.

The Company may, subject to compliance with the terms of the Convertible Notes, effect the conversion of some or all of the Convertible Notes into shares of common stock, subject to certain liquidity and pricing requirements, as specified in the Convertible Notes.

The embedded conversion feature in the Convertible Notes qualifies for the scope exception to derivative accounting in ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, for certain contracts involving a reporting entity’s own equity. However, due to a Company option to settle any conversion request by holders prior to July 1, 2020 in either cash or in shares, the conversion option is bifurcated and recorded to additional paid-in-capital within equity, creating a debt discount. In valuing the conversion option, we estimated that the yield on an identical non-convertible instrument would be 12.5%, resulting in a debt discount of $12.6 million. The Company incurred $1.2 million in issuance costs ~~which were allocated ratably between~~on the ~~debt and equity portions of the instrument. Both the debt discount and~~original issuance. The debt issuance costs are being amortized over the 10-year Convertible Notes term and are netted with the principal balance within convertible debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Company incurred interest expense of ~~$0.6~~$0.4 million and ~~$1.1~~$0.9 million, ~~related to the convertible notes~~respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 the company incurred interest expense of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, related to the convertible notes, inclusive of non-cash interest related to amortization of discount.

On ~~March~~December 27, 2020, the Taxpayer Certainty and Disaster Tax Relief Act of 2020 expanded certain benefits made available under the enhanced Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, including modifying and extending the Employee Retention Credit (~~CARES Act~~ERC) ~~was passed into law. Section 1102~~. As modified, the ERC provides eligible employers with less than 500 employees a refundable tax credit against the employer’s share of social security taxes. The ERC is equal to 70% of qualified wages paid to employees during calendar 2021 for a maximum credit per employee of $7,000 per employee for each calendar quarter through September 30, 2021. In addition to claiming ERC’s during the ~~CARES Act,~~prior fiscal year, the ~~Paycheck Protection Program Loan (PPP Loan) provided additional funding for small businesses, as defined by~~Company claimed ERCs of $2.4 million during the Small Business Act, to keep workers employed during through the COVID-19 crisis. In April 2020, our majority-owned subsidiary DME Inc. applied for and received $3.6 million in PPP Loans. Proceeds can only be used for specified covered purposes including payroll, rent and utilities in accordance with the CARES Act. The PPP Loan has a two year term and bears interest at a rate of 1% per annum. To the extent proceeds are used for these covered purposes, some or all of the related principal balances may be forgiven. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred until the U.S. Small Business Administration (~~SBA) has remitted the loan forgiveness amount~~six months ended December 31, 2021.

Between funding~~ and ~~June 30, 2020, the Company spent these proceeds~~other current assets on covered purposes and recognized the proceeds as a reduction to operating expenses. The Company has submitted a forgiveness application to the U.S. Small Business Administration seeking full forgiveness of the PPP Loan. The eligibility requirement of the PPP Loan is subjective, and if determined that we were ineligible to receive the PPP Loan we could be required to pay the PPP Loan in its entirety.

Additionally, pursuant to the CARES Act, Congress appropriated $100 billion in relief funds for hospitals and healthcare providers through grants administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (~~HHS~~). Qualified providers of healthcare, services and support may receive HHS grants for healthcare-related expenses or lost revenue due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Retention and use of the HHS grants are subject to certain terms and conditions including that such grant funds may only be used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to COVID-19 and such grant funds will reimburse only healthcare-related expenses or lost revenues that are attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. If these terms and conditions are met, HHS grants do not need to be repaid. In April 2020, subsidiaries of DME Inc. received $1.4 million in HHS grants to continue providing health care treatment to patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Between funding and June 30, 2020, the Company used these funds as authorized by the HHS grant and recognized the proceeds as a reduction to operating expenses. We will continue to monitor our ~~compliance with the terms and conditions of the HHS grant and any additional requirements if and when they become applicable.~~consolidated balance sheet.

We have accounted for such proceeds as in-substance government grants by analogizing to International Accounting Standard 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance.

In connection with the JPM Transactions, the Company issued 10,090 shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock with a face value of $1,000 per share at issuance. The shares were issued pro-rata to the stockholders of DME Inc. in the form of a distribution and 0 consideration was provided in exchange for such instruments. The shares provide for a 9% annual dividend, which is payable quarterly. The shares are mandatorily redeemable by the Company at their face value of $1,000 per share on the earlier of certain redemption events or December 29, 2027. The redemption events include a bankruptcy, change in control or sale of the durable medical equipment business. The shares are redeemable at any time at the option of Company at a redemption price equal to face value. The shares rank senior and have preference to the common shares of HC LLC. The shares are non-voting, do not participate in the earnings of HC LLC and contain standard protective rights.

As the shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock are mandatorily redeemable at a specified date, the security has been classified as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet. The dividends on the shares are included in interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

The fair value of each share of Series A-1 Preferred Stock on the issuance date was determined to be $801 per share. The difference between the fair value and the redemption value of $1,000 per share as well as debt issuance costs of $0.2 million is accounted for as a debt discount and accretion of the discount will be charged to interest expense over the 7-year period to redemption using the effective interest method.

The holders of the Series A-1 Preferred Stock include our majority-owned consolidated subsidiary Forest (8,082 shares), as well as Corbel and VHG (each 1,004 shares), who are also the holders of non-controlling interests in DME Inc. discussed above. See Note 56 – Related Party Transactions. Such shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued to consolidated subsidiaries and their effects on our operations have been eliminated in consolidation.

In connection with the JPM Transactions, the Company issued 34,010 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock with a face value of $1,000 per share at issuance. The shares were issued to Forest in exchange for cash equal to the face value of such shares. The shares provide for a 9% annual dividend, which is payable quarterly. The shares are mandatorily redeemable by the Company at their face value of $1,000 per share on December 29, 2027, or at a 0-3% premium decreasing over time based upon the occurrence of certain redemption events prior to December 29, 2027. The redemption events include a bankruptcy, change in control or sale of the durable medical equipment business. The shares are redeemable at any time at the option of Company at a redemption price at face value plus the 0-3% premium then in place. The shares rank senior and have preference to the common shares of HC LCC. The shares are non-voting and contain standard protective rights. In addition, upon a sale of the durable medical equipment business, the holders of HC LLC Series A-2 Preferred Stock are entitled to the greater of their liquidation preference or 33% of proceeds arising from such sale.

As the shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock are mandatorily redeemable at a specified date, the security has been classified as a liability in the consolidated balance sheet. The dividends on the shares are included in interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

We have identified the feature allowing holders of the HC LLC Series A-2 Preferred Stock to participate in up to 33% of proceeds arising from a sale of the durable medical equipment business as an embedded derivative. We have bifurcated this embedded derivative from the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock host and have recorded the derivative liability at fair value. The fair value of the derivative liability on the issuance date was $6.5 million, and will be marked to fair value at each reporting date going forward. The fair value of each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock on the issuance date was determined to be $810 per share. The difference between the fair value and the redemption value of $1,000 per share as well as debt issuance costs of $1.1 million is accounted for as a debt discount and accretion of the discount will be charged to interest expense over the 7-year period to redemption using the effective interest method.

The redemption events include the occurrence of an ownership change that triggers an IRC ~~§ 382~~§382 limitation which reduces Forest net operating loss carryforwards to less than $300 million. The preferred shares are redeemable at any time at the option of Company at a redemption price at face value plus the 0-3% premium then in place. The preferred shares rank senior and have preference to the common shares of Forest. The shares are non-voting, do not participate in the earnings of Forest and contain standard protective rights.

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

We are a holding company seeking to acquire assets and businesses, where our people and other assets provide a competitive advantage. We currently have ~~three~~two business operating segments: durable medical equipment and investment management, ~~and real estate,~~ with general corporate representing unallocated costs and activity to arrive at consolidated operations.

~~In September 2018, we launched our~~Our durable medical equipment ~~segment by acquiring two durable medical equipment businesses that specialize~~business specializes in the distribution of respiratory care equipment, including positive air pressure equipment and supplies, ventilators and oxygen equipment, and ~~also provide~~provides sleep study services.

Our investment management business manages a business development company, Great Elm Capital Corp. (GECC), a credit-focused private fund, Great Elm Opportunities Fund I, LP, a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC)-focused fund, Great Elm SPAC Opportunity Fund, LLC, and separate accounts for an institutional investor. The combined assets under management of these entities at December 31, ~~2020~~2021 was approximately ~~$228.1~~$239.2 million.

Our real estate business, which we launched in March 2018, has a majority-interest in two Class A office buildings totaling 257,000 square feet situated on 17 acres of land in Fort Myers, Florida (collectively, the ~~Property). The Property is fully-leased, on a triple-net basis, to a single tenant through March 31, 2030.~~

The operations of our general corporate segment encompass our corporate headquarters operations, in addition to management consulting services provided to certain of our subsidiaries.

We continue to explore other opportunities in the durable medical equipment and investment management ~~and real estate~~ sectors, as well as opportunities in other areas that we believe provide attractive risk-adjusted returns on invested capital. As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any binding commitments to make additional acquisitions or investments in any of these areas.

As of June 30, ~~2020,~~2021, we had ~~$1.5 billion~~$952 million of net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards for federal income tax purposes.

We launched our real estate business in March 2018 with an investment in a majority-interest in two Class A office buildings totaling 257,000 square feet situated on 17 acres of land in Fort Myers, Florida (collectively, the Property). The Property was fully-leased, on a triple-net basis, to a single tenant through March 31, 2030. In June 2021, we sold the real estate business. Previously reported financial information has been recast to present the activities of the real estate business within discontinued operations, and the assets and liabilities of the real estate business as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations.

On December 29, 2020, ~~the~~ Great Elm Group, Inc. (the Company or GEG) completed a reorganization of the Company’s corporate structure (the Holding Company Reorganization), where Great Elm Capital Group, Inc. (GEC) changed its name to Forest Investments, Inc. (Forest) and became a wholly owned subsidiary of a new holding company, ~~Great Elm Group, Inc. (the~~ ~~Company~~).the Company. Outstanding shares of Forest under the ticker symbol “GEC” were automatically converted into shares of common stock of Great Elm Group, Inc., ticker symbol “GEG.” Forest common stock was then delisted from the NASDAQ Global Select Market and subsequently deregistered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company’s shareholders.

Following the consummation of the Holding Company Reorganization,, J.P. Morgan Broker-Dealer Holdings Inc. (JPM), a Delaware corporation and affiliate of JPMorgan Chase & Co., Forest, the Company and JPM agreed to effect certain transactions pursuant to which JPM provided financing in an aggregate amount of $37.7 million.

Using proceeds from the JPM Transactions, DME Inc. paid off the term loan with Corbel (the Corbel Facility).

During the three and six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company continued to experience suppressed revenues relative to its pre-pandemic expectations due to the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, the investment management business continues to experience reduced assets under management in our managed portfolios as compared to pre-pandemic levels. COVID-19 may continue to impact such managed portfolios as well as the value of the shares of GECC held by the Company in the future. In addition, ~~the~~COVID-19 may impact our ability to finance and execute new acquisitions or other business opportunities.

The durable medical equipment business continues to experience a suppressed referral pipeline for sleep studies and durable medical equipment ~~set-ups.~~set-ups relative to pre-COVID levels, though the demand for these services and products has increased from prior quarters. More significantly however, and indirectly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic the durable medical equipment industry has been impacted by global supply chain challenges most notably shortages in semiconductor microchips. These shortages have impacted our ability to purchase positive air pressure (PAP) devices during the most recent quarter in accordance with our normal procurement process. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, our equipment allotments from key suppliers were not sufficient to keep up with recovering demand, resulting in missed revenue opportunities. The impact of COVID-19 ~~continues~~as well as global supply chain challenges continue to evolve and ~~its~~their duration and ultimate disruption to the Company’s customers and to its operations cannot be estimated at this time. However, the Company expects some level of missed revenue opportunities to ~~experience decreased durable medical equipment rental revenues~~continue in the near future due to the ~~reduction in new patient set-ups during the pandemic. Should the disruption continue for an extended period of time, the impact could have a more severe adverse effect on our business and operations.~~supply chain challenges noted above.

~~In addition, COVID-19 may impact our ability to act on new acquisitions or other business opportunities.~~44

The Company prioritizes the health and safety of employees and customers. Beginning in early March 2020, all employees at our corporate headquarters as well as certain employees of DME Inc. moved to a remote-working model. We have since transitioned to a hybrid working model to maximize efficiency while managing risk. In addition, the officers of the Company have maintained regular communications with key service providers, including legal and accounting professionals, other consultants and vendors, noting that those firms have similarly moved to remote-working models to the extent possible. Such employees and key service providers have been able to effectively transition to working remotely while maintaining a consistent level of capabilities and service, however, we will continue to monitor and make adjustments as necessary.

At DME Inc. we invested in virtual patient set-ups which allow our respiratory therapists to interact with patients by video to maintain social distance. ~~Certain other employees whose responsibilities have been impacted by social distancing have been temporarily redeployed within the organization.~~ DME Inc. has experienced increased operating expenses related to paid employee absences due to COVID-19 illnesses and exposures, costs related to cleaning and disinfecting workspaces, and additional shipping costs for remote set-ups.

We cannot predict the full impact of ~~the~~any existing or new variants of COVID-19 ~~pandemic,~~and related supply chain challenges, including ~~its~~their duration ~~in the United States and worldwide~~ and the magnitude of ~~the~~their economic impact, ~~of the outbreak,~~ particularly with respect to the travel restrictions, business closures and other quarantine measures imposed on our employees, suppliers and service providers by various local, state, and federal governmental authorities, as well as non-U.S. governmental authorities. As such, we are unable to predict the duration of any business and supply-chain disruptions, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively affect our operating companies’ operating results or the impact that such disruptions may have on our results of operations and financial condition.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting ~~principles (GAAP~~).principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These items are monitored and analyzed by our management for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. During the six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we did not make material changes in our critical accounting policies or underlying assumptions as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, ~~2020~~2021 as it relates to recurring ~~transactions.~~transactions, except as follows:

On July 1, 2021 the Company adoptedthe Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standard Update 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models. Under the full retrospective method of adoption, previously reported financial information has been recast to reflect the adoption of this accounting standard in those periods.

The following discussion reflects the historical performance of our ~~three~~two business operating segments and general corporate. ~~We expect that our results of operations in future periods will be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak and its negative effects on the global economic conditions.~~

For the three months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, revenues from the sale of medical equipment and sleep study services were ~~$8.4~~$9.0 million and ~~$1.1~~$1.3 million, respectively, while for the three months ended December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, such revenues were ~~$7.6~~$8.4 million and ~~$1.5~~$1.1 million, respectively. The increases are primarily attributable to contributions from the acquisitions of AMPM in March 2021 and of MedOne in August 2021 as well as $0.4 million in revenue reserve improvements on sales and services revenue.

For the six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, revenues from the sale of medical equipment and sleep study services were ~~$16.4~~$17.7 million and ~~$2.3~~$2.7 million, respectively, while for the six months ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020, such revenues were ~~$13.9~~$16.4 million and ~~$2.8~~$2.4 million, respectively.

For the three ~~and~~months ended December 31, 2021, rental revenue was $5.5 million as compared to $5.0 million for the six months ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2020. The increases are primarily attributable to contributions from the acquisitions of AMPM in March 2021 and of MedOne in August 2021 as well as $0.2 million in revenue reserve improvements on sales and services revenue.

For the six months ended December 31, 2021, rental revenue was ~~$5.0~~$10.9 million ~~and $10.4 million, respectively,~~ as compared to ~~$5.3~~$10.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020. The increases are primarily attributable to contributions from the acquisitions of AMPM in March 2021 and ~~$10.8~~of MedOne in August 2021 as well as $0.3 million ~~respectively,~~in revenue reserve improvements on sales and services revenue.

This decrease is due primarily~~2021 were hindered by global supply chain issues which significantly restricted our ability to ~~reduced referral pipelines for new~~procure CPAP equipment, ~~set-ups~~resulting in lost revenue opportunities during the ~~ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which are customarily driven by in-house or external sleep studies.~~

~~Revenue reserve constraints increased $1.0 million~~periods primarily related to CPAP sales and ~~$1.2 million, respectively during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 as compared~~CPAP rentals.

Cost of goods sold includes inventory costs for medical equipment sold and direct costs associated with running sleep study services, including staff compensation to perform the studies and the purchase of supplies used in the studies. Cost of rentals includes depreciation on medical equipment held for lease and costs related to maintenance expenses. The favorable margins on sales as compared to the prior periods are primarily due to favorable negotiated volume pricing with strategic vendors, as well as $0.4 million and $0.5 million improvements in revenue reserves as compared to the three and six month periods in the prior year. Margins on rentals as compared to the prior periods have remained consistent, as benefits from lower revenue reserves have been mostly offset by vendor surcharges implemented to address increased costs related to ongoing global supply chain issues.

General and administrative expenses consist of employee-related, facility-related, freight and shipping, information technology and other costs. For the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, employee-related costs were $6.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The increase in ~~operating~~employee related costs is primarily due to additional payroll-related costs relating to acquired AMPM and MedOne employees. Facility-related expenses of $0.8 million and freight and shipping costs of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021 remained consistent as compared to the prior comparative period. Information technology costs were $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, with increases due to the AMPM and MedOne acquisitions. Other costs for the three months ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 were $1.0 million as compared to ~~the corresponding periods~~$0.7 million in the prior ~~year~~period, primarily related to professional fees. Other costs were benefited in the current period by $0.3 million related to change in fair value of contingent consideration.

For the six months ended December 31, 2021, these amounts are net of government stimulus received under the CARES Act of $2.3 million related to employee retention tax credits. Excluding such stimulus, employee-related costs were $12.2 million and $10.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in employee related costs is primarily attributable to costs of goods sold and cost of rentals. Such increases in costs corresponded to increases in revenues but were also impacted by the revenue mix within the durable medical equipment business. We incurred lower margins on sales and services as high margin sleep lab testing decreased as a percentage of revenue and was replaced with lower margin equipment and supplies sales. The Company realized higher margins on rentals due to ~~lower capital expenditures for new set-ups.~~

~~In addition~~additional payroll-related costs relating to ~~these factors, the increase in operating~~acquired AMPM and MedOne employees. Facility-related expenses and information technology costs for the six months ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 of $1.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively, increased nominally as compared to ~~the corresponding periods~~$1.5 million and $1.0 million in the ~~prior year are also impacted by increases in other operating expenses of the durable medical equipment business~~comparable period due to ~~enhance scalability of the durable medical equipment business.~~

The increases in payroll related costs were primarily related~~remained consistent as compared to ~~accrued management bonus plan in the current year that was not present in~~ the prior ~~comparable period, along with a shared services agreement between GEG and DME Inc.~~

The durable medical equipment business has also experienced increased operating expenses related to paid employee absences due to COVID-19 illnesses and exposures, costs related to cleaning and disinfecting workspaces, and additional shippingcomparative period. Other costs for ~~remote set-ups.~~ ~~For~~ the ~~three and~~ six months ended December 31, ~~2020, freight and postage expenses were $0.4~~2021 of $1.4 million ~~and $0.8 million, respectively,~~increased as compared to ~~$0.3~~$1.3 million ~~and $0.6~~in the comparable period, primarily due to professional fees.

The increase~~2021 were nominal in ~~freight~~the current and ~~postage costs was primarily attributable to the additional costs of remote patient set-ups which were performed in person~~corresponding prior ~~to the COVID-19 pandemic.~~periods.

Depreciation and amortization includes the depreciation of fixed assets, excluding depreciation on the equipment held for rental, which is included in the cost of rentals, and amortization of the intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of the durable medical equipment businesses. Depreciation and amortization for the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 ~~decreased as compared to the three~~remained consistent at $0.5 million and ~~six months ended December 31, 2019 due to decreased capital expenditures during the COVID-19 pandemic.~~$0.9 million, respectively.

Investment management revenues include management fees and administrative fees. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2021 management fees were $0.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, and administrative fees were $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
