Re: | PainCare Holdings, Inc. Form 10-KSB for Fiscal year Ended December 31, 2004, File No. 001-14160 |
Dear Mr. Rosenberg:
I am writing in response to your letters dated December 14, 2005 and February 2, 2006 regarding the above referenced filing. Please find our responses outlined below.
Letter dated December 14, 2005
Convertible Debt:
5)“Refer to your response to our comment 9. Tell us the valuation methodology you used to determine that the warrants had no fair value. We do not believe the mere fact that the exercise price was out of the money at the time of issuance and the underlying shares are not registered is an applicable accounting basis for your determination. Refer to paragraphs 15 and 16 of APB 14.”
6) “We noted your response to our comments 10 and 11 and have the following additional comments:
| • | | Please tell us if your convertible instruments require you to maintain an effective registration statement. |
| • | | Provide us an analysis that indicates you have sufficient authorized and unissued shares available to settle the warrants for such instruments to meet the classification as equity under EITF 00-19. This includes assessing the company’s other instruments that could require share settlement that are outstanding. For example, if you have other convertible instruments, warrants, or employee stock options outstanding, these shares would need to be considered in determining whether there are sufficient shares to settle the contract. |
| • | | Tell us if shareholder approval will be required to increase authorized shares in order to share settle a contract. |
7) “We note in your response to comments 10 and 11 that the warrants relating to Laurus do contain a cashless exercise feature. It appears that those warrants may be required to be accounted for as a derivative pursuant to paragraph 6 of SFAS 133.”
8) “It is unclear to us why the conversion option in the convertible debt is not considered a derivative. Please provide us an analysis. If you believe the convertible debt is a conventional security, please address the reasons why, including why you believe the clauses in the agreement would constitute standard anti-dilution options. Refer to EITF 00-19 and 05-2 and SFAS 133.”
9)“Refer to your response to our comment 12. Please provide us in disclosure-type format the original conversion price for each debt issuance and the original and adjusted conversion price related to the warrants. Provide a discussion with regards to the re-pricing in October 2004. Clarify in the disclosure that the warrants had no fair value at the time of issuance, if you continue to believe that is the case after your analysis on the comment above.”
Responses to comments 5-9 from December 14, 2005 Letter:
Evaluation of Arrangements under EITF 00-19:
We evaluated each of the following Financing Arrangements under the criteria of paragraphs 12-32 of EITF 00-19:
| • | | Laurus Secured Convertible Term Note and Warrants (February 24, 2004) |
| • | | Laurus Secured Convertible Term Note and Warrants (March 22, 2004) |
| • | | Laurus Secured Convertible Term Note and Warrants (June 30, 2004) |
| • | | Midsummer Convertible Debenture and Warrants (June 30, 2004) |
| • | | Midsummer Convertible Debenture and Warrants (December 17, 2003) |
As more fully detailed inExhibit A to this response letter, we concluded that the arrangements did not meet all conditions necessary for equity classification on the dates issued. In addition, we considered whether the hybrid debt instruments met the definition of “conventional convertible,” as that term is defined in EITF 05-02, and concluded that they did not. Finally, we have further evaluated the conditions for equity classification in EITF 00-19 at the end of each reporting period since the initial issuance of the instruments and concluded the criteria continue to require liability classification for the remaining outstanding instruments. (Comment 6, 7, 8)
Since we concluded that equity classification was not available for the instruments, we have applied accounting set forth in SFAS133 to these arrangements in our revised financial statements.Exhibit B illustrates the affects of the revised accounting on our financial statements. Information about our application of SFAS133 and other standards is as follows:
Identification of Derivative Instruments:
Freestanding Instruments: We concluded that the warrants issued in connection with each of the financing arrangements did not meet the conditions for equity classification. As a result, in accordance with SFAS133 and the guidance of DIG B-6, we allocated proceeds from the financings to fair value of the warrants issued. We intend to carry these instruments as current liabilities, and adjust their carrying values to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Embedded Derivatives: We evaluated each hybrid instrument for features that possessed the characteristics of derivative instruments (notional amount, underlying, no initial investment and net settlement). We identified the following features and further considered whether bifurcation was necessary under SFAS133.
| • | | Embedded Conversion Features—All of the hybrid debt instruments (Laurus and Midsummer) are convertible into our common stock. Such an embedded conversion feature does not meet the “clearly and closely related” criteria because it is indexed to equity. In accordance with par. 61(k) bifurcation of this embedded instrument was required. |
| • | | Interest Rate Floor—The Laurus convertible notes each bear interest at Prime, plus 2%; each also has an interest rate floor of 6%. We evaluated this embedded derivative instrument under the criteria of par. 13 of SFAS133 and concluded that bifurcation was not required. In evaluating whether a scenario whereby the investor could double its initial rate of return, under 13(b), we estimated the investor’s return by allocating the basis between the two instruments received by the investor (debt and warrants) on a relative fair value basis. We then compared the estimated investor’s return (ranging from 10% to 13%) to the scenario resulting in the greatest benefit arising from the floor. Such scenario was that the Prime Rate would fall to zero and the floor would cause the rate to be 4% higher than the variable stated rate (6.0%-2.0%). We concluded that the incremental 4% would not double the investor’s initial rate of return. |
| • | | Indexed Interest Rate: The Laurus convertible notes each contain a derivative feature that incrementally decreases the interest rate for increases in the trading market price of our stock above the stated conversion prices. For example, if our trading stock price is greater than the conversion price by 25%, we would receive a reduction in the stated interest rate of 0.25%. This feature is not clearly and closely related to the debt instrument because it is indexed to equity. Therefore, bifurcation was required. |
| • | | Cash Payment Premium-The Laurus convertible notes each contain a derivative feature that provides for a 2% premium for cash-based debt service payments, if we choose such payment method. Since we separately concluded that net share settlement was not within the company’s control pursuant to EITF 00-19, we assumed that cash settlement was the only available settlement option and, therefore, evaluated this derivative feature similar to a put under paragraph 61(d) of SFAS133. Notwithstanding, we concluded that the feature did not meet the condition 61(d)(2) as to being contingently exercisable and bifurcation was not required. |
| • | | Default Put—The Midsummer debentures each contain a default premium remedy that provides for repayment at 120% of the principal balances. We evaluated this derivative under the criteria of paragraph 61(d) of SFAS133 and the interpretive guidance in DIG B-16; we concluded that both conditions were present. Accordingly, bifurcation of this embedded derivative was required. |
| • | | Other features: We considered all other features that were both considered clearly and closely related to the host or, in our opinion, within our control. |
As a result of our conclusions, reflected above, we have revised our accounting (Illustrated inExhibit B) to provide for the bifurcation from each host instrument of one compound derivative instrument in accordance with the interpretive guidance of DIG B-15. In accordance with the interpretive guidance of DIG B-6, we allocated proceeds (remaining after allocation to the freestanding instruments) from each financing to the bifurcated derivative based upon fair values; we intend to carry these instruments as current liabilities, and adjust their carrying values to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
The following tabular presentation illustrates the amounts associated with our allocation:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Financing Reference | | Laurus 1 | | Laurus 2 | | Laurus 3 | | Midsummer 1 | | Midsummer 2 |
Financing Date | | 2/24/04 | | 3/22/04 | | 6/30/04 | | 6/30/04 | | 12/17/03 |
Allocation: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Freestanding | | $ | 583,800 | | $ | 718,651 | | $ | 270,600 | | $ | 196,763 | | $ | 1,027,708 |
Embedded | | | 781,711 | | | 961,806 | | | 271,905 | | | 201,905 | | | 1,405,000 |
Host | | | 3,634,489 | | | 3,319,543 | | | 957,495 | | | 1,101,332 | | | 7,567,292 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total proceeds | | $ | 5,000,000 | | $ | 5,000,000 | | $ | 1,500,000 | | $ | 1,500,000 | | $ | 10,000,000 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Host Instruments:
As reflected in the table above, the allocation of the proceeds to the various components of the financing resulted in discounts to the face values of the debt instruments. Our accounting has been revised to provide for amortization of these discounts over the debt terms (in all instances three-years) using the Effective Method.
Other Derivative Instruments:
We considered the application of paragraph 24 of EITF 00-19 to other derivatives that we previously classified as equity. On the date that our first 00-19 applicable instrument was issued (December 17, 2003) we had instruments (warrants and convertible debt) that were indexed to 2,387,911 shares of our common stock. While we had sufficient authorized/unissued common stock to settle all equity instruments on that particular date, features of the Midsummer financing arrangement (i.e. potentially variable conversion rates) rendered the shares necessary to settle the instrument indeterminate. As a result, we have concluded that physical settlement of the other derivatives is not within our control. Accordingly, we reclassed an amount equal to the fair value of the other derivatives from equity to liability effective on December 17, 2003 and will continue to carry those derivatives as current liabilities and at fair value until our control of share settlement is reacquired. (Comment 6)
Valuation Methodologies:
As stated above, we have allocated initial proceeds and have made subsequent adjustments to freestanding and embedded derivatives based upon their fair values. In developing our valuation methodology and techniques, we have considered available literature on valuation of these instruments, including SFAS 107. (Comment No. 5)
We have selected the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) valuation methodology for freestanding derivatives; principally the warrants resulting from the Midsummer and Laurus financings and those similar instruments that were reclassed under paragraph 24 of EITF 00-19. We considered all of the terms and features of all warrants and determined that such features were non-complex and fairly plain-vanilla in nature. Accordingly, we reached the conclusion that the required assumptions and inputs into BSM would be sufficient to provide for a reasonable valuation of those instruments.
We have selected the Flexible Monte Carlo (FMC) Simulation valuation methodology for the compound embedded derivative that we bifurcated for accounting purposes after consideration of the terms and features of the hybrid instrument. The FMC methodology was determined by us to be a preferable methodology over other methodologies that we considered because it afforded the most flexibility to address the greater number of complex features associated with the hybrid instrument. Unlike BSM, FMC provided for inputs and simulations for features we consider in our control, such as our optional redemption term (we may prepay the debt in common stock at our option when the market value exceeds 150% of the conversion price). FMC also provided for inputs and simulations for external factors, such as interest rate risks and market considerations of credit risks associated with our instruments. Overall, we believe that the FMC is the best method for valuing these more complex derivative instruments.
Anti-Dilution Re-Pricing Event (October 2004):
The original terms each of the Laurus and Midsummer debt instruments and the Midsummer warrants contained an anti-dilution protection clause that required an adjustment to the conversion/exercise prices in the event we sold common stock or issued convertible instruments at prices below the original conversion/exercise prices. We triggered such an anti-dilution event in October 2004 when we sold common stock.
We provided a tabular presentation of the conversion/exercise prices before and after the October 2004 re-pricing event in our November 16, 2005 response letter. We subsequently concluded that the warrants issued in connection with each of the three Laurus financing arrangements did not have an anti-dilution re-pricing provision. Otherwise, those tabular schedules reflect the information requested. (Comment 9)
In assessing the proper accounting for the anti-dilution protection adjustments (terms of the original instruments) that we triggered in October 2004, we considered the guidance of APB 14 “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.” Paragraph 3 provides that one of the characteristics of convertible debt instruments is that it has “a conversion price which does not decrease except pursuant to anti-dilution provisions.” However, the standard is otherwise unclear regarding the types of anti-dilution events that it contemplated.
Based upon our further research and considerations, we concluded that the anti-dilution protection features, while terms of the original debt agreements, were not of the type contemplated in paragraph 3 of APB 14. In our view, the anti-dilution features contemplated by paragraph 3 are those traditional equity restructurings (splits, reorganization, spin-off events) where all shareholders are equally impacted. Such is not the case relative to the anti-dilution provision; only the debt holder benefits from the provision. Therefore it is our conclusion that the adjustments required assessment under EITF 96-19, as if they were modifications.
The anti-dilution event did not change the present values of the cash flows as contemplated by EITF 96-19. However, it did change in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature resulting from the anti-dilution reset. We note that both EITF 96-19 and EITF 05-07Accounting for Modifications to Conversion Options Embedded in Debt Instruments and Related Issues require that the calculation include changes in the fair values of the conversion options. We also understand that the EITF is currently considering this methodology and whether it applies to a bifurcated conversion option. Notwithstanding, we included the change in the fair value of the conversion option until further guidance is provided by either the EITF or FASB. As a result of our computations, no instrument experienced a greater than 10% change, which would have required extinguishment. We accounted for the affect on the fair value of the conversion feature arising from the anti-dilution event as charges to expense in the period that the event occurred.
(b) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Note 8 Acquisitions:
11)“We note your response to comment 14, but continue to believe that the allocation of the purchase price should have included an allocation for management agreements. Please refer to paragraph 35 (b) of FAS 141 which states “identify all of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets that meet the recognition criteria in paragraph 39, regardless of whether they had been recorded in the financial statements of the acquired entity.
We note that a management contract is cited in paragraph A14 of FAS 141 as an example of an intangible asset that meets the criteria for recognition apart from goodwill. Also, refer to paragraph 36 which discusses the use of independent appraisals and actuarial or other valuations to aid in determining the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Please tell us that valuation methodology was used, the significant assumptions, and the extent that you used an independent valuation expert to determine the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Also tell us what consideration was given in your valuations specifically to valuing management agreements entered into as part of the acquisitions including whether or not you concluded that the terms of management agreements entered into were at fair value requiring no allocation of the purchase price.”
Response to Comment No. 11:
We have given substantial additional consideration to your comments on this matter, and we continue to believe that purchase price allocation to our management agreements is not appropriate. Our conclusions result largely on the basis that the management agreements that arise from our physician practice business combinations are not of the type or nature as those contemplated by paragraph A14.d(2) of FAS141 (i.e. we don’t believe that they are assets).
Rather, our management agreements are designed to constitute the mechanism by which we acquire the controlling financial interest in our practice acquisitions.
As reflected in our consolidation policy, most states, including those in which we operate, preclude the corporate ownership of physician’s practices. With the guidance of qualified legal counsel, we have structured these arrangements to result in our acquisition of a controlling financial interest, and therefore consolidate them, in accordance with the provisions of EITF 97-2Application of FASB Statement No. 94 and APB Opinion No. 16 to Physician Practice Management Entities and Certain Other Entities with Contractual Management Arrangements. Accordingly, these contracts are not assets; they are merely the instruments by which we evidence our legal ownership interest.
We note that EITF 97-2 provides that the acquisition of physician practices under these forms of business arrangements should be initially accounted for in accordance with FAS141. Accordingly, except as noted in the following paragraphs, we also continue to believe that our application of FAS141 as it applies to the actual physicians practice is appropriate. Specifically with regard to the management contracts, we also note the following statement in paragraph B23 of FAS141: “In addition, this Statement does not change the consensuses reached in EITF Issue No. 97-2.” Therefore, it is reasonable to conclude that if the standard setters had desired for management contracts (that are written to be compliant with EITF 97-2) to be intangible assets under FAS141 instead of just a mechanism to acquire control, they would have mentioned this change from the consensuses in EITF 97-2 in FAS141.
The substantial additional consideration given to this issue resulted in our consultation with an independent valuation specialist who, based upon the evidence provided, is in agreement with our conclusion. However, in evaluating our position, this specialist concluded that we acquired an asset that would be analogous to a non-contractual customer relationship. Such asset is the referral network controlled by our physicians.
Paragraph 39 of FAS141 provides that an intangible asset shall be recognized as an asset apart from goodwill if it arises from contractual or other legal rights; or, if it is separable. Paragraph A18 provides additional guidance on customer relationships.
We initially concluded that we did not acquire customer lists; an asset that we recognize generally meets the separable criteria of paragraph 39. Our conclusion was based on the fact that patients do not provide recurring business to our practices and, therefore, there is no future stream of revenue associated with them. However, individual patients are referred from other practicing physicians on a continuous, recurring basis. In reaching our acquisition decisions, we consider both the existence and the future utility of these physician referral networks. We believe that they are assets and, while not contractual, that they meet the separable criteria in paragraph 39 of FAS 141.
Our engaged valuation specialist has provided us with the valuation of this asset and a model that we will consistently apply to future acquisitions. The valuation methodology used was the Income Approach. Following are the significant assumptions derived from the valuation report:
Components of Cost of Capital:
| • | | Risk Free Rate: The rate of return on long-term U.S. Government bonds is considered a good proxy for the risk-free rate of return. At October 3, 2005, the rate of return on a twenty year U.S. Government Treasury Bond was 4.6%. |
| • | | Long-Horizon Equity Risk Premium: This represents the extra return earned by an average equity investor in excess of the return on long-term Treasury securities, which was 7.2% through 2004, according to the Ibbotson Associates Stocks, Bonds, Bills and Inflation Yearbook for 2004. |
| • | | Expected Micro-Capitalization Equity Size Premium: According to the Ibbotson Yearbook, the difference between the total returns on large stocks and small stocks was 9.9% through 2004. |
| • | | Specific Company Risk Premium: There are three identifiable risk categories inherent in our acquisitions. |
| • | | Profitability & Working Capital: Since we provide funding to our acquired practices/surgery centers, no increase has been assigned to this risk factor. |
| • | | Competition: We have assigned an increase of 2.0% for this risk factor. |
| • | | Intellectual Property: We have assigned an increase of 1.5% for this risk factor. |
Determination of Cost of Equity:
| • | | Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC): We utilized a forecasted nominal debt of 10% of the capital structure for the possibility of requiring future debt. The resulting adjusted WACC of 23.0% was used in the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. |

The Net Profit after Taxes was computed by taking our financial forecasts and reducing forecasted revenues as follows:
Year 1 – 30% reduction
Year 2 – 50% reduction
Year 3 – 30% reduction
Year 4 – 25% reduction
Year 5 – 20% reduction
These reductions are based on the assumption that if a physician were to depart, revenues would at first be reduced by only 30% in the first year, as we would replace the physician and the referral sources would be slow to react to the change. However, the full effect would occur in Year 2 with a 50% reduction in revenues and then begin to recover in Years 3, 4 and 5.
Intangible Asset Allocation Term:
We have selected a term of seven or twelve years to amortize intangible assets, which represent the term of the physician’s employment agreement, plus an additional two years of non-compete.
Based on the valuation methodology outlined above, we have identified the following intangible asset amounts for all of our existing physician practice and surgery center acquisitions. We will amortize these assets over the proposed term, which is based on the term of the agreement between PainCare and the specific physician and/or surgery center.

Tell us why it is appropriate to use the same percentage estimate with regards to your allowance for doubtful accounts for different aging categories. It would appear that the longer the receivable is outstanding, the less likely it would be to collect the receivable.” |

Year end balance of allowance for doubtful accounts | | | | | | | | $ | 335,459 |
| | | | | | | | | |
The previous disclosure of our allowance for doubtful accounts was presented by applying the total allowance of $335,459 to each aging category on a prorata basis. However, we determine our allowance for doubtful accounts for each of our physician practice locations based on the unique characteristics of each practice’s accounts receivable including account aging, historical collection percentages, payor mix and by identifying specific delinquent accounts.
Convertible Debt, page 32:
3)“Refer to your response to our comment 6. If a convertible instrument requires you (the issuer) to maintain an effective registration statement, this would be outside the control of the issuer and would result in liability classification under EITF 00-19.”
As discussed in our responses to Comments 5-9 from the December 14, 2005 letter, above, we are in agreement that the maintenance of an effective registration statement is not within our control. The requirement to maintain an effective registration statement and other terms and features of the arrangements result in liability classification for the share-indexed instruments in our revised accounting.

ILLUSTRATIVE SELECTED FOOTNOTE DISCLOSURES
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
(11)Derivatives
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow risks or market risks that may affect the fair values of its financial instruments. However, certain other financial instruments, such as warrants and embedded conversion features that are indexed to the Company’s common stock, are classified as liabilities when either (a) the holder possesses rights to net cash settlement or (b) physical or net-share settlement is not within the control of the Company. In such instances, net cash settlement is assumed for financial accounting and reporting, even when the terms of the underlying contracts do not provide for net-cash settlement. Such financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period.
The caption Derivative Liabilities consists of (i) the fair values associated with derivative features embedded in the Laurus Convertible Secured Term Notes and the Midsummer Convertible Debentures and (ii) the fair values of the detachable warrants that were issued in connection with those financing arrangements. In addition, this caption includes the fair values of other pre-existing derivative financial instruments that were reclassified from stockholders’ equity when net-share settlement was no longer within the Company’s control.
The following tabular presentation reflects the components of derivative financial instruments on the Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2005 and 2004:
| | | | | | |
Liabilities: | | 2005 | | 2004 |
Embedded derivative instruments | | $ | 8,364,233 | | $ | 7,239,523 |
Freestanding derivatives (warrants) | | | 7,636,069 | | | 6,125,012 |
| | | | | | |
| | $ | 16,000,302 | | $ | 13,364,535 |
| | | | | | |
The following tabular presentation reflects the number of common shares into which the aforementioned derivatives are indexed:
| | | | | | |
Common shares indexed: | | 2005 | | 2004 |
Embedded derivative instruments | | $ | 5,502,716 | | $ | 9,198,875 |

| | | | | | |
| | $ | 8,096,032 | | $ | 11,792,191 |
| | | | | | |
The following tabular presentation reflects the income (expense) associated with adjustments recorded to reflect the aforementioned derivatives at fair value:
| | | | | | | | |
Income (expense): | | 2005 | | | 2004 | |
Embedded derivative instruments | | $ | (8,592,292 | ) | | $ | (2,547,803 | ) |

Fair value considerations for derivative financial instruments:
Freestanding financial instruments, consisting of warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation methodology because that model embodies all of the relevant assumptions that address the features underlying these instruments.

Embedded derivative instruments consist of multiple individual features that were embedded in the convertible debt instruments, and compounded into one derivative financial instrument for financial reporting purposes. These financial instruments are valued using the Flexible Monte Carlo Simulation methodology because that model embodies certain other relevant assumptions (including, but not limited to, interest rate risk, credit risk, and Company-controlled redemption privileges) that are necessary to value these complex derivatives.

| | | | | | |
(a)Laurus Financings: During 2004, the Company entered into a series of three separate financing agreements (the “Laurus Financings”) with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”) whereby the Company issued: (i) Secured Convertible Term Notes in the amounts of $5,000,000, $5,000,000 and $1,500,000, in February, March and June 2004, respectively; and (ii) warrants with seven-year terms to purchase 450,000 (at fixed exercise prices ranging from $4.24-$4.92), 550,000 (at fixed exercise prices ranging from $2.88-$4.18) and 165,000 (at fixed exercise prices ranging from $3.15-$3.76) shares of common stock, in February, March and June 2004, respectively. The Secured Convertible Term Notes are convertible into common stock at conversion rates of $3.39, $2.88 and $3.15, relative to the $5,000,000, $5,000,000 and $1,500,000 Secured Convertible Term Notes referred to above.
(b)Midsummer Financings: During 2003 and 2004, the Company entered into a series of two financing agreements (the “Midsummer Financings”) with Midsummer Investment, Ltd. (“Midsummer”) whereby the Company issued: (i) Convertible Debentures in the amounts of $10,000,000 and $1,500,000 in December 2003 and June 2004, respectively, (ii) warrants with four-year terms to purchase 1,263,316 shares of common stock (at fixed exercise prices ranging from $2.73-$2.85) and 165,000 shares of common stock (also at fixed exercise prices ranging from $2.73-$2.85), in December 2003 and June 2004, respectively. The Convertible Debentures are convertible into common stock at conversion rates of $2.61 and $3.15, relative to the $10,000,000 and $1,500,000 Convertible Debentures referred to above.
(c) The Laurus and Midsummer Financings included registration rights and certain other terms and conditions related to share settlement of the embedded conversion features and the warrants that the Company has determined are not within its control. In addition, certain features associated with the financings, such as anti-dilution protection afforded to Laurus and Midsummer financing agreements render the number of shares issuable under the Financings to be indeterminate. In these instances, EITF 00-19 Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, requires allocation of the proceeds between the various instruments and the derivative elements carried at fair values. The following tabular presentation reflects the allocation of the proceeds on the financings dates:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Holder | | Laurus | | Laurus | | Laurus | | Midsummer | | Midsummer |
Financing Date | | February 2004 | | March 2004 | | June 2004 | | June 2004 | | December 03 |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
See Note XX for additional information about the Company’s financial instruments.
The discount to the debt instruments resulting from the aforementioned allocation is being amortized through periodic charges to interest expense using the effective interest method. Effective interest rates used to amortize the Laurus Financings discounts amounted to 10.13%, 11.28%, and 12.92% for the February, March and June 2004 financings, respectively. Effective interest rates used to amortize the Midsummer Financing discounts amounted to 10.94%, and 12.13% for the December 2003 and June 2004 financings, respectively.
The following tabular presentation reflects the amortization of the debt discounts included in interest for each instrument:

Financing Date | | February 2004 | | March 2004 | | June 2004 | | June 2004 | | December 2003 | | Total |
Nine months ended September 30, 2005 | | $ | 248,981 | | $ | 244,380 | | $ | 141,428 | | $ | 80,155 | | $ | 662,960 | | $ | 1,377,904 |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(d)During October 2004, the Company sold common stock at values that activated certain anti-dilution protection reset adjustments to the conversion features of the Laurus and Midsummer financing arrangements. On the date of activation, the conversion prices for the February, March and June 2004 Laurus instruments adjusted to $3.12, $2.70 and $2.92, respectively. On the date of activation, the conversion prices for both Midsummer financings adjusted to $1.90. The Company accounted for the resets as modifications to the debt agreements that did not require extinguishment and, accordingly, recorded a charge to income in the amount of $413,123 representing the increase in the values of the embedded derivative financial instruments arising from the reset.
(e) During the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and the year ended December 31, 2004, Laurus converted face value of $10,520,000 and $374,000, respectively, of Secured Convertible Term Notes into 3,628,095 and 129,861 common shares, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2004, Midsummer converted face value of $1,044,840 into 400,000 shares of common stock.
(2)Restatement and Reclassifications of Previously Issued Financial Statements
The Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2000 through 2004 have been restated to give effect to the correction of certain errors that were discovered subsequent to December 31, 2005. All quarterly financial information for each of these years have also been restated to give effect to the correction of these errors. A discussion of each of the corrections is as follows:
Accounting for derivative financial instruments:
The Company originally recorded convertible debentures issued in 2003 and 2004 as conventional debt instruments with no separate recognition given to the derivative values of certain embedded conversion features or free-standing warrants.
The consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 and each of the interim periods from March 31, 2005 through September 30, 2005 have been corrected and restated to recognize all features of the derivative financial instruments including the host instruments, the embedded conversion features and the free-standing warrants in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”) and EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments indexed to, and Potentially settled in, a Company’s own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”).
Host instrument:
The proceeds from each financing arrangement were allocated to the various elements of the financing resulting in discounts to the face values of the debt instruments. These discounts were then amortized over the debt terms (in all instances three-years) using the effective interest method.
Free-standing warrants:
Proceeds from the financing were allocated to the fair value of the warrants issued using the Black-Scholes-Merton model. These instruments will be carried as current liabilities, and their carrying values adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Embedded conversion features:
Each hybrid instrument was analyzed in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 133 for features that possessed the characteristics of derivative instruments. Those instruments whose economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument were not “clearly and closely related” to the host instrument were bifurcated and treated as derivatives under the guidance of SFAS 133 and recorded at fair value with adjustments to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
Other derivative instruments:
Other warrants and convertible debt were outstanding that were indexed to our common stock and were previously classified as equity. We considered the application of EITF 00-19 to these instruments
and determined that they were derivatives because, although we had sufficient authorized/unissued common stock to settle all equity instruments on the date the first EITF 00-19 applicable instrument was issued, features of that financing arrangement rendered the number of shares necessary to settle the instrument indeterminate. As a result, physical settlement of the other derivatives was not within our control. Accordingly, the fair value of the other derivatives has been reclassified from equity to liabilities and we will continue to carry those derivatives as current liabilities and at fair value until our control of share settlement is reacquired.
Accounting for stock options:
The Company originally recorded stock options granted to employees as a fixed plan under the intrinsic value method provisions of APB No. 25. While the intrinsic value method under APB 25 is appropriate, the fixed plan accounting was inappropriate in our circumstances because our plan allowed for cashless exercises. With a cashless exercise feature, the number of shares to be issued is indeterminable as it is dependent on the stock price on the exercise date. As a result, we have a variable stock option plan and are required to record estimates of compensation expense (benefit) based on the fair value of the stock at the end of each reporting period.
The Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 have been restated to reflect non-cash charges of $13,532,700 and $356,590, respectively, for additional compensation expense resulting from the correction in the accounting for the Company’s stock option plans. In addition, the interim consolidated financial information for each of the periods from March 31, 2002 through September 30, 2005 have also been restated to give effect to the correction of this error.
The Company originally recorded stock option grants to non-employees without valuing the options and recording that value as an expense. The grants were to consultants and should have been recorded in accordance with SFAS 123. SFAS 123 requires all non-employee stock option grants to have a fair value calculation prepared on the grant date. The value of the non-employee stock option grant should then be recorded in the appropriate expense item. The Company will use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option grants to non-employees.
The Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 have been restated to reflect charges of $238,398, $219,829, and $27,471, respectively, for additional consulting expense resulting from the correction in the accounting for stock options issued to non-employees. The financial statements for the interim periods from March 31, 2002 through September 30, 2005 have been restated to give effect to this correction of an error.
Accounting for purchase acquisition transactions:
The Company has corrected the accounting used for acquisitions so as to be in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles. We have adjusted the purchase prices of each of our business acquisitions by correcting the value of our shares issued to their fair value at the date of the acquisitions. We also re-assessed the value of intangible assets acquired and the recording of deferred income taxes. An acquisition previously reported in September 2005 was reassessed and will be accounted for as a January 2006 acquisition when the transaction was completed. We have determined that there are other identifiable intangible assets that have an associated value. As such, we have adjusted the allocation of the purchase price and the recording of net assets for each of our acquisitions. The valuation of these identifiable intangibles was determined by a third-party valuation expert. The amortization period has been determined by management based on our estimates of the useful lives of the identified intangibles.
The Company’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 and each of the interim periods from March 31, 2005 through September 30, 2005 have been restated to reflect net intangible assets and amortization expense on those intangibles.
The Company originally recorded the acquisition of Denver Pain Management as a purchase combination on April 29, 2004. On August 27, 2004 an addendum to the management agreement modified the term of the agreement to a period of nine years. This modification required the acquisition be treated as an intangible asset subject to quarterly amortization charges and annual impairment testing. At the end of 2004 this was not reflected as an intangible asset on the balance sheet. The consideration paid and assets acquired totaled $1,717,560. As a result we recorded this amount as an intangible asset in 2004. During the years ending 2004 and 2005 the amount of amortization recorded is $160,540 and $516,584 respectively. There was no impairment charge recorded in either period.
The Company originally recorded the acquisition consideration paid into escrow for the Center for Pain Management ASC into a separate account in the financial statements at September 26, 2005. This item was previously reflected on the balance sheet at September 30, 2005 as Acquisition consideration paid in escrow. This transaction should not have been recorded as such because the escrow agreement allowed for either party to walk away from the agreement before consummation. As a result, the cash and stock consideration placed into the escrow account were reversed. Cash increased by $3,750,000, Common stock decreased by $3,750,000, and promissory notes decreased $7,500,000. There are no income statement effects regarding this transaction.
The Company’s restated financial statements reflect the changes as described above for the derivative instruments, accounting for stock options, and accounting for purchase acquisitions. These changes all required an adjustment to the prior period tax provisions. The change in the provision for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004 and the nine months ended September 30, 2005 reflect an income tax expense (benefit) of $4,344,658, ($1,324,588), and ($2,011,858), respectively, for the additional (reduced) tax provision computation.
The following tables present the effect on results of operations for each of the interim periods during 2005, 2004 and 2003 resulting from the corrections described above:
