NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Description of Company and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Company
Arcadia Resources, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a national provider of in-home health care and retail / employer health care services. The Company’s operations included three segments: In-Home Health Care Services (“Services”); Durable Medical Equipment (“DME”); and Pharmacy (formerly know as Retailer and Employer Services). In August 2007, the Company discontinued its non-emergency medical care clinic initiative. The In-Home Health Care Services segment is a national provider of medical staffing services, including home healthcare and medical staffing, as well as light industrial, clerical and technical staffing services. Based in Southfield, Michigan, the In-Home Health Care Services segment provides its staffing services through a network of affiliate and Company-owned offices throughout the United States. The Durable Medical Equipment segment markets, rents and sells products and equipment across the United States. The DME segment also sells various medical equipment offerings through a catalog out-sourcing and product fulfillment business. The Pharmacy segment primarily includes the operations of PrairieStone Pharmacy, LLC (“PrairieStone”). PrairieStone offers DailyMed™, the patented and patent pending compliance packaging medication system, to at-home patients and senior living communities and provides pharmacy services to grocery pharmacy retailers nationally. In addition, PrairieStone offers pharmacy services to employers through a contracted relationship with a large pharmacy benefits manager. Services offered to grocers and employers include staffing, pharmacy management, pharmacy dispensing and billing software, DailyMed™, an exclusive retail pharmacy benefit network, and a 420 square foot automated pharmacy footprint that allows its customers to reduce space needs and improve labor efficiencies.
Effective July 3, 2006, the Company became listed on the American Stock Exchange and changed its stock symbol to KAD. Previously, the Company was not listed on an exchange and its stock symbol on the OTC Bulletin Board was ACDI.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007, the consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 are unaudited but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position at such dates and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2007 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 29, 2007.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Arcadia Resources, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The earnings of the subsidiaries are included from the dates of acquisition. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on the financial statements and accompanying notes.
6
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers cash in banks and all highly liquid investments with terms to maturity at acquisition of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company reviews all accounts receivable balances and provides for an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical analysis of its records. The analysis is based on patient and institutional client payment histories, the aging of the accounts receivable, and specific review of patient and institutional client records. Items greater than one year old are fully reserved. As actual collection experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required. Any unanticipated change in customers’ creditworthiness or other matters affecting the collectability of amounts due from customers could have a material effect on the results of operations in the period in which such changes or events occur. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the first in, first out (FIFO) method. Inventories include products and supplies held for sale at the Company’s individual locations. The durable medical equipment and pharmacy operations account for the majority of the inventory. Inventories are evaluated periodically for obsolescence and shrinkage.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (3 to 15 years). The majority of the Company’s property and equipment includes equipment held for rent to patients in the home for which the related depreciation expense is included in cost of revenues and totaled approximately $532,000 and $594,000 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $1.9 million and $1.5 million for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
The Company has acquired several entities resulting in the recording of intangible assets, including goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the net assets of businesses acquired. The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter and between annual tests in certain circumstances, by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. Fair value is determined by estimating the future cash flows for each reporting unit.
Acquired intangible assets are amortized using the economic benefit method when reliable information regarding future cash flows is available and the straight-line method when this information is unavailable. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
| | |
Trade name | | 30 years |
Customers and referral source relationships (depending on the type of business purchased) | | 5 and 20 years |
Acquired technology | | 3 to 5 years |
Non-competition agreements (length of agreement) | | 5 years |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets (except goodwill, as described previously) for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. To determine if impairment exists, the Company compares the estimated future undiscounted cash flows from the related long-lived assets to the net carrying amount of such assets. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset, generally determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows.
Payables to Affiliated Agencies
Arcadia Services, Inc. (“Arcadia Services”) operates independently and through a network of affiliated agencies throughout the United States. These affiliated agencies are independently-owned, owner-managed businesses, which have been contracted by the Company to sell services under the Arcadia Services name.
7
The arrangements with affiliated agencies are formalized through a standard contractual agreement. The affiliated agencies operate in particular regions and are responsible for recruiting and training field service employees and marketing their services to potential customers within the region. The field service employees are employees of Arcadia Services. Arcadia Services provides sales and marketing support to the affiliated agencies and develops and maintains operating manuals that provide standard operating procedures. The contractual agreements require a specific, timed, calculable flow of funds and expenses between the affiliated agencies and Arcadia Services. The net amounts due to affiliated agencies under these agreements include short-term and long-term net liabilities.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions specified in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Accordingly, the Company provides deferred income taxes based on enacted income tax rates in effect on the dates temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities reverse and tax credit carryforwards are utilized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in income tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
Revenue Recognition and Concentration of Credit Risk
Revenues for services are recorded in the period the services are rendered. Revenues for products are recorded in the period delivered based on rental or sales prices established with the client or their insurer prior to delivery.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at net realizable amounts estimated to be paid by the customers and third-party payers. A provision for contractual adjustments is recorded as a reduction to net patient services revenues and consists of: a) the difference between the payer’s allowable amount and the customary billing rate; and b) services for which payment is denied by governmental or third-party payers or otherwise deemed non-billable. The Company records the provision for contractual adjustments based on a percentage of revenue using historical data. Due to the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements, adjustments are sometimes made to amounts originally recorded. These adjustments are typically identified and recorded upon cash remittance or claim denial.
Revenues recognized under arrangements with Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental-funded organizations were approximately 28% for both the three-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and 29% for both the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. No customers represent more than 10% of the Company’s revenues for the periods presented.
Business Combinations and Valuation of Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141”). SFAS No. 141 requires business combinations to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and includes specific criteria for recording intangible assets separate from goodwill. Results of operations of acquired businesses are included in the financial statements of the Company from the date of acquisition. Net assets of the acquired company are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities, or other contracts to issue common stock, were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. Shares that are contingently issuable upon a future outcome are not included in earnings per share until they are released. Outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common shares and escrowed shares have not been considered in the computation of dilutive losses per share since their effect would be antidilutive for all applicable periods shown. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were approximately 29,900,000 and 48,210,000 potentially dilutive shares outstanding, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation
Effective April 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”), which replaced SFAS No. 123 and superseded APB 25, using the modified prospective transition method. Under the modified prospective transition method, the fair value accounting and recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R are applied to stock-based awards granted or modified subsequent to the date of adoption. Prior periods presented are not restated. In addition, for awards granted prior to the effective date, the unvested portion of the awards are recognized in periods subsequent to the effective date based on the grant date fair value determined for pro forma disclosure purposes under SFAS No. 123.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for similar terms, the carrying value of the lines of credit, capital lease obligations and long-term obligations approximate fair value.
Advertising Expense
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses included in continuing operations were approximately $369,000 and $248,000 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $748,000 and $627,000 for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), which amends and clarifies previous guidance on the accounting for deferred income taxes as presented in SFAS No. 109. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48, and there was no material effect to the consolidated financial statements. As a result, there was no cumulative effect related to the adoption of FIN 48.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. Management is currently evaluating the statement to determine what, if any, impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which permits companies to make a one-time election to carry eligible types of financial assets and liabilities at fair value, even if measurement is not required by GAAP. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the statement to determine what, if any, impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Note 2 — Management’s Plan
Our independent auditor’s report on the consolidated financial statements and schedule for the year ended March 31, 2007 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business and the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has experienced operating losses and negative cash flows since its inception and currently has an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Liquidation values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments, if any, that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
9
The Company has grown primarily through acquisition since the reverse merger in May 2004 and has incurred operating losses since that time. For the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company incurred net losses of $43.8 million and $4.7 million, respectively, and for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company incurred an additional net loss of $20.3 million. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company used approximately $7.1 million of cash in operations and had approximately $1.5 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2007. Additionally, certain of the Company’s debt agreements include subjective acceleration clauses and other provisions that allow lenders, in their sole discretion, to determine that the Company has experienced a material adverse change, which, in turn, would be an event of default.
Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon several factors, including our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis. Management’s current cash projections indicate improvement in the cash generated from operations during the remainder of fiscal 2008 and during fiscal 2009.
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company sold or ceased operations of certain locations and lines of business that were under performing or did not complement our strategic direction. These operations are included in “discontinued operations” in the accompanying statements of operations. Management believes that the eliminations of these operations along with various other restructuring initiatives will significantly improve future cash flows. Further, these actions will allow management to focus on growing the continuing operations. Management continues to explore opportunities for reducing selling, general and administrative expenses and is committed to reducing costs to appropriate levels.
In May 2007, the Company raised $13.1 million through the sale of common stock (see Note 9 – Stockholders’ Equity).
In September 2007, the Company entered into a new revolving credit agreement with a potential borrowing capacity of $5 million. In December 2007, the Company amended its line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank to extend its maturity to October 1, 2009. In January 2008, the Company amended its debt agreement with Jana Master Fund, Ltd. in order to extend its maturity to October 1, 2009 and to adjust the interest rate to a fixed rate of 10% beginning April 1, 2008.
Management continues to explore other alternatives for raising additional capital, if necessary, including seeking new debt or equity financing and the additional divesting of non-strategic businesses.
Although management believes that its efforts in obtaining additional financing will be successful, there can be no assurance that its efforts will ultimately be successful.
Note 3 – Discontinued Operations
Durable Medical Equipment Operations
Florida Durable Medical Equipment Operations (Beacon Respiratory Services, Inc.)
On September 10, 2007, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Beacon Respiratory Services, Inc. (“Beacon Respiratory”) to Aerocare Holdings, Inc. for cash proceeds of $6,500,000, less fees of $457,500. $750,000 of the purchase price will be held back for up to twelve months to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to August 17, 2007. Beacon Respiratory operated the Company’s durable medical equipment operations in Florida.
The agreement includes a “clawback” provision whereby if the federal government enacts legislation that reduces the Medicare rental oxygen reimbursement time period to less than 36 months in calendar years 2008 or 2009, the purchase price will be retroactively reduced, and the Company will be obligated to make a cash payment to buyer in the applicable amount within 30 days following the date the legislation is enacted. The potential purchase price adjustment depends on which calendar year the legislation is enacted and the number of months for which the new legislation would provide reimbursement. The maximum amount would be $1,000,000 if the number of months is reduced to 18 months or fewer during 2008.
10
Colorado Durable Medical Equipment Operations (Beacon Respiratory Services of Colorado, Inc.)
On September 10, 2007, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of Beacon Respiratory Services of Colorado, Inc. (“Beacon Colorado”) to an affiliate of AeroCare Holdings, Inc. for cash proceeds of $1,200,000, less fees of $83,000. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to August 16, 2007. Beacon Colorado was the Company’s durable medical equipment operations in Colorado.
Retail Operations
Sears
On July 31, 2007, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with an entity controlled by a former employee of the Company. Based on the terms of the agreement, the Company sold the retail operations located within certain Sears stores for $215,587. $25,000 of the purchase price was paid with a deposit previously received by the Company, and the remaining $190,587 is to be paid with a 12-month promissory note, which bears interest at an annual rate of 8%. The Sears retail operations were part of the Durable Medical Equipment segment.
Wal-Mart
During the three-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company ceased its operations at all seven of its retail operations located within certain Wal-Mart stores in Florida, Texas and New Mexico. The Wal-Mart retail operations were part of the Durable Medical Equipment segment.
Care Clinic, Inc.
In December 2006, Care Clinic, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Staffing and Support Services Agreement with Metro Health Basic Care (“Metro”) to operate non-emergency health care clinics in Michigan and Indiana. Under the agreement, Metro provided medical management services to the clinics, including the oversight of physician credentialing and employment, as well as clinic licensing. Care Clinic, Inc. provided staffing and support services, including the oversight of billing, collections, and third-party contract negotiations, as well as the credentialing and employment of non-physician practitioners and other administrative personnel. The initial term of the agreement was five years, although either party could terminate without cause on 180 days written notice.
On August 10, 2007, the Company provided notice that it was terminating the agreement. In October 2007, the Company and Metro finalized a settlement relating to the Company’s early termination of the agreement. As of December 31, 2007, the Company accrued approximately $660,000 relating to the settlement.
Care Clinic, Inc. was a separate reporting segment.
Pharmacy Operations
During the three-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company ceased its operations at its Hollywood, Florida pharmacy operations, which were part of the Pharmacy segment.
The results of the above are reported in discontinued operations through the dates of disposition in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, and the prior period consolidated statements of operations have been recast. The segment results in Note 14 also reflect the reclassification of the discontinued operations. The discontinued operations do not reflect the costs of certain services provided to these operations by the Company. Such costs, which were not allocated by the Company to the various operations, included legal fees, insurance, external audit fees, payroll processing, human resources services and information technology support. The Company uses a centralized approach to the cash management and financing of its operations, and, accordingly, debt and the related interest expense were also not allocated specifically to these operations. The consolidated statements of cash flows do not separately report the cash flows of the discontinued operations.

Note 4 — Business Acquisition
On July 11, 2007, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of JASCORP, LLC (“JASCORP”). JASCORP provides a range of retail pharmacy management services and systems, including dispensing and billing software. The primary reason for the acquisition was to improve the software offered to retailers through the pharmacy licensed service model. The total purchase price of $2,219,962 included cash payments of $383,904 and the issuance of 1,814,883 shares of common stock. The value of the common stock takes into consideration the fact that the Company has guaranteed the share price of $0.99 and that additional shares or cash, at the Company’s discretion, are to be issued at the one-year anniversary date if the share price is below this price. The consolidated financial statements herein include the results of operations of JASCORP from July 12, 2007. The acquired business is included in the Pharmacy segment.

On September 10, 2007, the Company entered into two separate note payable agreements totaling $715,000 with two former executives of PrairieStone, which was acquired by the Company in February 2007. According to the terms of the PrairieStone purchase agreement, these two executives were to sell a predetermined number of shares of the Company’s common stock received in conjunction with the acquisition in order to cover their estimated income tax liabilities. The proceeds from these sales were less than the estimated income tax liability amounts, and consistent with the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company was required to make up the difference. This difference represents additional contingent consideration, which increased the goodwill relating to the PrairieStone acquisition by $715,000. The two former PrairieStone executives are currently executives of the Company (see Note 13 — Related Party Transactions).
Goodwill of approximately $7.1 million is amortizable over 15 years for tax purposes while the remainder of the Company’s goodwill is not amortizable for tax purposes as the acquisitions related to the purchase of common stock rather than of assets or net assets.

Note 6 — Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The clinics initiative suffered significant operating losses from the time it was launched in mid-fiscal 2007. In August 2007, management decided that the Company could not continue to sustain the cash flow needs and losses being incurred by the clinics. The Company provided notice that it was terminating the agreement relating to the operations of 18 previously opened clinics. The Company recognized an impairment expense of $1.9 million in June 2007. The expense primarily related to the write-down of computer software and leasehold improvements to their estimated fair values. The estimated fair value of the long-lived assets was based on management’s estimates of the liquidation value of these clinic assets. For the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2007, the impairment expense is included in “loss from discontinued operations” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

(1) Revolving credit facility
(2) Line of credit
Comerica Bank
Arcadia Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and four of Arcadia Services, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiaries have an outstanding line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank. Advances under the Comerica Bank line of credit agreement cannot exceed the lesser of the revolving credit commitment amount or the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness permitted under the advance formula amount at any one time. The advance formula base is 85% of the eligible accounts receivable, plus the lesser of 85% of eligible unbilled accounts or $3,000,000. The line of credit agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause and requires the Company to maintain a lockbox. However, the Company
14
has the ability to control the funds in the deposit account and to determine the amount used to pay down the line of credit balance. As such, the line of credit is classified as a long-term liability in the consolidated balance sheet. Arcadia Services, Inc. agreed to various financial covenant ratios, to have any person who acquires Arcadia Services, Inc.’s capital stock to pledge such stock to Comerica Bank, and to customary negative covenants. If an event of default occurs, Comerica Bank may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise its right to foreclose on the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. and on all of the assets of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
RKDA, Inc. (“RKDA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the holding company of Arcadia Services, Inc. and Arcadia Products, Inc., granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. Arcadia Services, Inc. granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of its assets. The subsidiaries of Arcadia Services, Inc. granted the bank security interests in all of their assets. RDKA is restricted from paying dividends to the Company. RKDA executed a guaranty to Comerica Bank for all indebtedness of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Any such default and resulting foreclosure would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. As of December 31, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
Amerisource Bergen Drug Corporation
In connection with the acquisition of PrairieStone in February 2007, PrairieStone entered into a line of credit agreement with Amerisource Bergen Drug Corporation, which previously maintained an ownership interest in PrairieStone. Draws against the line of credit must be made in $250,000 increments, are subject to PrairieStone satisfying certain borrowing base requirements, and are subject to PrairieStone achieving certain EBITDA targets. The line of credit is secured by a security interest in all of the assets of PrairieStone and SSAC, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and is guaranteed by the Company.
Presidential Healthcare Credit Corporation
On September 26, 2007, Arcadia Products, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Arcadia Products’ subsidiaries entered into a line of credit with Presidential Healthcare Credit Corporation (“Presidential”). The credit agreement provides that the Company may request advances up to 85% of the eligible DME receivables minus any amounts reserved pursuant to the agreement, if applicable. The line of credit agreement requires the Company to maintain a lockbox account. The line of credit agreement is secured by the accounts receivable of Arcadia Products, Inc. and its subsidiaries and is guaranteed by the Company.
The Presidential line of credit agreement includes various covenants, including a financial covenant for minimum EBITDA requirements. The minimum EBITDA is 75% of the EBITDA projected by the Company in the financial statement projections provided by the Company and approved in advance by Presidential.
The prime rate was 7.25% at December 31, 2007. The weighted average interest rate of borrowings under line of credit agreements as of December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007 was 7.53% and 8.52%, respectively.

Note 9 — Stockholders’ Equity
General
On June 22, 2006, the Company returned all outstanding treasury shares to the registrar to make them available for re-issuance.
On September 26, 2006, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock to 200,000,000, $0.001 par value per share from 150,000,000, $0.001 par value per share.
16
Escrow Shares
In conjunction with the merger and recapitalization of the Company in May 2004, the former CEO, former COO and another former officer of the Company entered into escrow agreements. As of March 31, 2007, the former CEO, former COO and another former officer of the Company had 4,800,000, 3,200,000 and 1,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, held in escrow. These shares represented 80% of the shares originally escrowed pursuant to the agreements and were to be released upon the Company meeting certain EBITDA targets for fiscal 2006 and 2007. The other 20% of the shares were released from escrow pursuant to the agreements in February 2005 due to the average closing stock price of the Company’s common stock being at least $1.00 for a 20 consecutive-day period. The Company did not meet the EBITDA targets for either fiscal 2006 or 2007, and the 9,600,000 shares of common stock were returned to the Company and cancelled in July 2007. The shares held in escrow described herein are not included in the calculation of the weighted average shares outstanding for any periods.
Common Stock Transactions
In April and July 2007, the Company issued a total of 850,456 shares of common stock as consideration for the quarterly debt payments due on April 12, 2007 and July 12, 2007 totaling $1,050,000 related to the acquisition of Alliance Oxygen & Medical Equipment. The shares were valued as of the dates of the debt payment agreements.
In May and August 2007, the Company issued a total of 279,099 shares of common stock as consideration for the quarterly debt payments due on January 27, 2007, April 27, 2007, July 27, 2007 and October 27, 2007 totaling $303,000 related to the acquisition of Remedy Therapeutics, Inc. The shares were valued as of the dates of the debt payment agreements.
In May 2007, the Company issued an aggregate of 11,018,905 shares of common stock at $1.19 per share and warrants to purchase 2,754,726 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share in a private placement resulting in aggregate proceeds of $13,112,000. The fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model and was determined to be $2,163,000. The assumptions used were as follows: risk free interest rate of 4.79%, expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 63%, and expected life of 7 years. If the Company sells shares of stock at a price less than $1.19 per share before May 2010, then the exercise price of the warrants will decrease to the new offering price, and the number of warrants will increase such that the total aggregate exercise price remains unchanged. This warrant re-pricing provision excludes certain common stock offerings, including offerings under the Company’s equity incentive plan, previously existing shareholder rights, and stock spits. Under the accompanying registration rights agreements, the Company agreed to file, within 60 days of closing, a registration statement to register the resale of the shares and use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within 120 days after the registration statement is filed. The registration statement was filed on July 6, 2007 and was declared effective on July 13, 2007, which was within the required time-period.
In conjunction with the private placement, the Company paid fees totaling $670,000.
On June 26, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Redemption Agreement with the minority interest holders of Pinnacle EasyCare, LLC (“Pinnacle”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company sold its 75% interest in Pinnacle, which was originally acquired in November 2006, to the minority interest holders for the return of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $252,000 that were issued to the minority interest holders as partial consideration in the original transaction. The shares were returned to the Company and cancelled.
On September 10, 2007 and simultaneous with the Company’s sale of its Florida and Colorado durable medical equipment businesses, the Company released 1,068,140 shares of common stock to the former owners of Alliance Oxygen & Medical Equipment, Inc., an entity acquired by the Company in July 2006. The release of the shares was consistent with the terms of an Escrow Release Agreement entered into on July 19, 2007. The value of the shares of $876,000 was determined based on the stock price on September 10, 2007. The release of the shares increased the loss on the disposal of the DME operations.
17
Stock Price Guarantees
In conjunction with two recent business acquisitions as well as with certain other equity transactions, the Company guaranteed that its stock price would meet or exceed various target prices in the future. If the guaranteed stock prices are not met, the Company will be required to issue additional shares of common stock or cash or a combination thereof, at the Company’s discretion, to make up the difference.

Note 10 — Contingencies
As a health care provider, the Company is subject to extensive federal and state government regulation, including numerous laws directed at preventing fraud and abuse and laws regulating reimbursement under various government programs. The marketing, billing, documenting and other practices of health care companies are all subject to government scrutiny. To ensure compliance with Medicare and other regulations, audits may be conducted, with requests for patient records and other documents to support claims submitted for payment of services rendered to customers, beneficiaries of the government programs. Violations of federal and state regulations can result in severe criminal, civil and administrative penalties and sanctions, including disqualification from Medicare and other reimbursement programs.
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the resolution of such actions will materially affect the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.
Note 11 — Stock-Based Compensation
On August 18, 2006, the Board of Directors unanimously approved the Arcadia Resources, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the stockholders on September 26, 2006. The 2006 Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted shares. The 2006 Plan will terminate and no additional awards will be granted after August 2, 2016, unless terminated by the Board of Directors sooner. The termination of the 2006 Plan will not affect previously granted awards. The total number of shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2006 Plan may not exceed an aggregate of 2.5% of the Company’s authorized and unissued shares of common stock as of the date the 2006 Plan was approved by the shareholders or 5,000,000 shares. All non-employee directors, executive officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to receive awards under the 2006 Plan. As of December 31, 2007, approximately 2,328,000 shares were available for grant under the 2006 Plan.
Prior to the approval of the 2006 Plan, certain officers, directors and members of management were granted stock options and restricted shares of the Company’s common stock with varying terms.
Stock Options
Prior to the adoption of the 2006 Plan, stock options were granted to certain members of management and
18
the Board of Directors. The terms of these options vary depending on the nature and timing of the grant. The maximum contractual term for the options granted to date is seven years. A significant number of stock options granted prior to the adoption of the 2006 Plan were awarded to two former executives and were contingent on the meeting of certain financial milestones. These options are more fully described below.
The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historic volatility. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
Following are the specific valuation assumptions used for each respective period:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Note 12 — Income Taxes
The Company incurred state and local tax expense of $33,000 and $53,000 during the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $56,000 and $137,000 during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
FAS 109 requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized. A review of all available positive and negative evidence needs to be considered, including a company’s performance, the market environment in which the company operates, the length of carryback and carryforward periods, and expectation of future profits. FAS 109 further states that forming a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not needed is difficult when there is negative evidence such as the cumulative losses in recent years. Therefore, cumulative losses weigh heavily in the overall assessment. The Company will provide a full valuation allowance on future tax benefits until it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to utilize the assets, or other significant positive evidence arises that suggests the Company’s ability to utilize such assets.
Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48. Upon adoption and the conclusion of the initial evaluation of the Company’s uncertain tax positions (UTP’s) under FIN 48, no adjustments were recorded in the accounts. Consistent with past practice, the Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits through interest and operating expenses, respectively. No amounts were accrued
20
as of June 30, 2007. The Company is subject to filing requirements in the United States Federal jurisdiction and in many states for numerous consolidated and separate entity income tax returns. As of the date of adoption of FIN 48, the Company’s aggregate consolidated unrecognized tax benefit (UTB) was determined to be zero.
In the major jurisdictions in which the Company operates, which includes the United States and various individual states therein, returns for various tax years from 2003 forward remain subject to audit. The Company is not currently under examination for federal or state income tax purposes.
In July 2007, the State of Michigan enacted a substantial change to its corporate tax structure. The tax law change includes the elimination of the Single Business Tax (SBT) and the creation of an income tax and a modified gross receipts tax. The new taxes will be effective January 1, 2008. Management does not anticipate that these new laws will have a material impact to the Company in future periods.
Note 13 — Related Party Transactions
The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated June 25, 2007 with Jana Master Fund, Ltd. for $17,000,000.

The Company incurred interest expense relating to this note payable of $522,000 and $1,827,000 during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007, respectively.
PrairieStone has a line of credit agreement with a former owner of PrairieStone, which was issued shares of the Company’s common stock as part of the purchase price consideration. At December 31, 2007, the outstanding balance of the line of credit was $2,450,000. The former owner held approximately 3% of the outstanding shares of Company common stock on December 31, 2007.

Both of these individuals were former executive officers and owners of PrairieStone. Pursuant to the PrairieStone purchase agreement, these two individuals sold a predetermined number of shares of the Company’s common stock, which they received as consideration for the sale of their interests in PrairieStone, in order to cover their estimated personal tax liabilities resulting from the sale of PrairieStone to the Company. The proceeds from these common stock sales were less than the estimated tax liabilities. The purchase agreement obligates the Company to reimburse them the difference. The notes payable bear annual interest of 4% and mature on April 10, 2008. Principal and interest payments totaling $90,000 are due on a monthly basis with a final payment of $98,596 due on April 10, 2008. At December 31, 2007, the combined balance of these notes payable was $366,000. The Company incurred interest expense relating to these notes payable of $5,000 and $11,000 during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007, respectively.
One of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company has minority ownership interests in each of Lunds, Inc. and LFHI Rx, LLC and serves as the Chairman and CEO of Lunds, Inc. These two entities held an ownership interest in PrairieStone prior to its acquisition by the Company. Lunds, Inc. and LFHI Rx, LLC received 2,400,000 shares of Company common stock at the closing of the transaction and may be entitled to receive additional shares under the terms of the purchase agreement. Immediately prior to Company’s acquisition of PrairieStone, PrairieStone closed on the sale of the assets of fifteen retail pharmacies located within grocery stores owned and operated by Lunds, Inc. and Byerly’s, Inc. to Lunds, Inc., which transaction included execution of a five-year Management Services Agreement and a five-year Licensed Services Agreement between Lunds, Inc. and PrairieStone. Under the terms of the Management Services Agreement, PrairieStone will provide such services that are appropriate for the day-to-day management of the pharmacies. PrairieStone will receive a $600,000 management fee for the first year of the agreement. In conjunction with these two agreements, the Company recognized $184,000 and $549,000 in revenue during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007, respectively.
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, an Executive Vice President, Lunds, Inc. and LFHI Rx all received shares of the Company’s common stock upon the acquisition of PrairieStone in February 2007. The Company has guaranteed the former shareholders of PrairieStone a stock price of at least $2.50 per share at the one-year anniversary date of the acquisition, subject to a floor price of $2.16 per share. If the stock price is less than the guaranteed price, then these shareholders will receive either cash, common stock or a combination thereof equal to the difference.

Note 14 — Segment Information
The Company reports net revenue from continuing operations and operating income/(loss) from continuing operations by reportable segment. Reportable segments are components of the Company for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Company reorganized its operations into four segments: In-Home Health Care Services; Durable Medical Equipment; Pharmacy (formerly known as Retailer and Employer Services); and Clinics. During the three-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company ceased the Clinics operations. Each segment is managed separately based on its predominant line of business. Prior period segment information has been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation.
The In-Home Health Care Services segment (“Services” segment) consists primarily of a national provider of home care and staffing services currently operating in 17 states through its 72 locations. This segment operates primarily in the home health care area of the health care industry by providing care to patients in their home, some of which is prescribed by a physician. The Company also utilizes its base of employees to provide staffing to institutions on a temporary basis.
The Durable Medical Equipment segment consists primarily of respiratory and durable medical equipment operations. In addition, this segment includes a home-health oriented mail-order catalog and related website and sells durable medical equipment at retail host sites.
The Pharmacy segment primarily includes the operations of PrairieStone, which was acquired in February 2007. PrairieStone offers DailyMed™, a patented and patent pending compliance packaging medication system, to at-home patients and senior living communities and provides pharmacy services to grocery pharmacy retailers nationally. In addition, PrairieStone offers pharmacy services to employers through a contracted relationship with a large pharmacy benefits manager. Pharmacy services to grocers and employers include staffing, pharmacy management, pharmacy dispensing and billing software, DailyMed™, a preferred retail pharmacy benefit network, and a 420 square foot automated pharmacy footprint that allows its customers to reduce space needs and improve labor efficiencies.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Identified below are some of the more significant accounting policies followed by the Company in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of our accounting policies see “Note 1 — Description of Company and Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
In general, the Company recognizes revenue when all revenue recognition criteria are met, which typically is when:
| • | | Evidence of an arrangement exists; |
|
| • | | Services have been provided or goods have been delivered; |
|
| • | | The price is fix or determinable; and |
|
| • | | Collection is reasonably assured. |
Revenues for services are recorded in the period the services are rendered. Revenues for products are recorded in the period delivered based on rental or sales prices established with the client or their insurer prior to delivery.
Net patient service revenues are recorded at net realizable amounts estimated to be paid by the customers and third-party payers. A provision for contractual adjustments is recorded as a reduction to net patient services revenues and consists of: a) the difference between the payer’s allowable amount and the customary billing rate; and b) services for which payment is denied by governmental or third-party payors or otherwise deemed non-billable. The Company records the provision for contractual adjustments based on a percentage of revenue using historical data. Due to the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements, adjustments are sometimes made to amounts originally recorded. These adjustments are typically identified and recorded upon cash receipts or claim denial.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The Company reviews all accounts receivable balances and provides for an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical analysis of its records. The analysis is based on patient and institutional client payment histories, the aging of the accounts receivable, and specific review of patient and institutional client records. As actual collection experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required. Any unanticipated change in customers’ credit worthiness or other matters affecting the collectability of amounts due from customers, could have a material effect on the results of operations in the period in which such changes or events occur. After all reasonable attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill is assessed for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances warrant, in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"(“SFAS No. 142”). We assess goodwill related to reporting units for impairment and write down the carrying amount of goodwill as required.
SFAS No. 142 requires that a two-step impairment test be performed on goodwill. In the first step, we compare the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. We determine the estimated fair value of each reporting unit using a combination of the income approach and the market approach. Under the income approach, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of
26
estimated future cash flows. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenues or earnings for comparable companies. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then we are required to perform the second step to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill.If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we must record an impairment loss equal to the difference.
SFAS No. 142 also requires that the fair value of intangible assets with indefinite lives be estimated and compared to the carrying value. We estimate the fair value of these intangible assets using the income approach. We recognize an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the intangible asset is less than the carrying value. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the estimated economic benefit method over the useful life.
The income approach, which we use to estimate the fair value of our reporting units and intangible assets, is dependent on a number of factors including estimates of future market growth and trends, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods the assets will be utilized, appropriate discount rates and other variables. We base our fair value estimates on assumptions we believe to be reasonable but which are unpredictable and inherently uncertain. Actual future results may differ from those estimates. In addition, we make certain judgments about the selection of comparable companies used in the market approach in valuing our reporting units, as well as certain assumptions to allocate shared assets and liabilities to calculate the carrying values for each of our reporting units.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized currently for the future tax consequences attributable to the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as for tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized.
We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed for some portion or all of a net deferred tax asset. Judgment is used in considering the relative impact of negative and positive evidence. In arriving at these judgments, the weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence is commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets and review the amount of such allowance periodically. When we determine certain deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be utilized, we will reduce our valuation allowance accordingly. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain.
Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of net operating losses following a change in control of a company. It has been determined that a change in control of the Company has taken place. Therefore, the Company’s ability to utilize certain net operating losses generated will be subject to severe limitations in future periods, which could have an effect of eliminating substantially all the future income tax benefits of the respective net operating losses. Tax benefits from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards will be recorded at such time as they are considered more likely than not to be realized.

Net revenue was $37.5 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $36.4 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.1 million, or 3.1%. Cost of revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $25.2 million, resulting in a gross profit of $12.4 million, or 33.0% of revenues. Cost of revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 was $24.4 million, resulting in a gross profit of $12.0 million, or 33.0% of revenues. With the expansion of the DME operations and the Pharmacy operations during fiscal 2007 and 2008, primarily through acquisitions, the revenue mix has changed and will continue to change. The In-Home Health Services segment revenue remains the largest revenue source for the Company and totals approximately 80.4% of total revenue during the three-month period ended December 31, 2008. The cost of revenues in the In-Home Health Care Service primarily represents employee costs. The costs of revenue in the DME and Pharmacy segments are largely the cost of products and medication sold to patients, as well as, to a lesser extent, the services provided to patients and supplies used in the delivery of other rental products. The DME cost of revenues also includes the depreciation of patient rental equipment (discussed in “Depreciation and Amortization” section).
The In-Home Health Care Services (“Services”) segment revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $30.2 million compared to $30.1 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $142,000, or 0.5%. The slight increase in Services revenues was due to organic growth. The Services revenues as a percentage of total Company revenues decreased slightly from 82.5% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 to 80.4% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007. The Services gross profit percentage remained consistent for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 at 26.6% compared to 26.7% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006.
The DME segment revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 were $5.6 million compared to $5.7 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $154,000 or 2.7%. As expected, the DME gross profit decreased to 65.5% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to 68.1% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, primarily due lower revenue as a result of the sale of the Florida and Colorado location as previously discussed. Higher costs for equipment purchased contributed to the slight decline in the gross profit percentage.
The Pharmacy segment revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 were $1.8 million compared to $631,000 thousand for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.1 million or 180.2%. The increase in Pharmacy revenues is due to the acquisition of PrairieStone on February 16, 2007 and JASCORP on July 11, 2007. The Pharmacy gross margin for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $678,000 and the gross margin percentage was 38.3%. This compares to a gross margin of $71,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 and the gross margin percentage was 11.3%. The increase in the cost of revenues reflects the addition of PrairieStone and JASCORP. The increase in the gross margin percentage is primarily due the higher margins being generated from the pharmacy software revenue subsequent to the JASCORP acquisition.

| | | | |
| | $ | 12,680 | | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 12,487 | | | | 100.0 | % |
| | | | |
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 were 33.8% of revenues compared to 34.3% of revenues for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, which represents a slight increase of $193,000 or 1.5% in total selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company remains focused in our efforts to control expenses in this category. The decrease of $645,000 in the DME segment was offset by an increase of $844,000 in the Pharmacy segment. The decrease in the DME selling, general and administrative expense was primarily due to a reduction in employee costs after the Company closed its Orlando, Florida office and merged many of the functions into the Southfield, Michigan administrative office. The increase in the Pharmacy segment selling, general and administrative expenses was due to the acquisition of PrairieStone in February 2007 and JASCORP in July 2007.
Depreciation and Amortization
The following summarizes depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations for the three-month periods ended December 31, (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2007 | | 2006 |
| | |
Depreciation — cost of revenues | | $ | 532 | | | $ | 594 | |
|
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment | | $ | 352 | | | $ | 214 | |
Amortization of acquired intangible assets | | | 532 | | | | 422 | |
| | |
Depreciation and amortization — operating expense | | $ | 884 | | | $ | 636 | |
| | |
Depreciation expense included in cost of revenues, which represents depreciation related to equipment rented to patients, was approximately $532,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $594,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $62,000 or 10.4%. The decrease is consistent with the decrease in the patient rental equipment revenue within the DME segment. Rental equipment is depreciated over three years.
Total depreciation and amortization expense included in operating expenses was approximately $884,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $636,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $248,000 or 39.0%. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment was approximately $352,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $214,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $138,000 or 64.5%. The increase reflects the increase in property and equipment subsequent to various fiscal 2007 acquisitions. Also, the Company made a significant investment in software during fiscal 2007, and software is amortized over three years resulting in a significant increase in software amortization expense.
Amortization of acquired intangible assets was approximately $532,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $422,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $110,000 or 26.1%. The increase reflects the increase in the acquired intangible asset values subsequent to the various acquisitions in fiscal 2007 and 2008. Most significantly, the PrairieStone acquisition in February 2007 added $9.8 million in amortizable intangible assets.

Interest Expense and Income
The following summarizes interest expense and income for the three-month periods ended December 31, (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |

Interest income | | | (4 | ) | | | (2 | ) |
| | |
| | $ | 924 | | | $ | 1,100 | |
| | |
Interest expense was $928,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $1.1 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $174,000 or 15.8%. Interest income was $4,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $2,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2007, the total balance of interest bearing liabilities (lines of credit, long-term obligations, and capital leases) was $34.6 million compared to $47.9 million at December 31, 2006, a decrease of $13.4 million, or 27.9%.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $33,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $53,000 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $20,000 or 37.7%. Due to the Company’s losses in recent years, it has paid nominal federal income taxes. The income tax expense is primarily the result of state income tax liabilities of the subsidiary operating companies. For federal income tax purposes, as of March 31, 2007, the Company had significant permanent and timing differences between book income and taxable income resulting in combined net deferred tax assets of $14.3 million to be utilized by the Company for which an offsetting valuation allowance has been established for the entire amount. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling $17.2 million that expires at various dates through 2027. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of certain of these net operating loss carryforwards upon a change of control of the Company. It has been determined that a change in control took place, and as such, the utilization of $770,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards will be subject to severe limitations in future periods.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
During the three-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company completed the sale of its DME Alabama operations and ceased its retail Wal-Mart operations and Florida pharmacy operations. The loss from discontinued operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $1.4 million. This loss included the loss from the discontinued operations of $1.2 million and the net loss on disposal of $244,000. The loss from discontinued operations for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 was also $1.4 million.

Net revenue was $113.5 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $109.0 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $4.6 million or 4.2%. Cost of revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $77.1 million resulting in a gross profit of $36.5 million or 32.1% of revenues. Cost of revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 was $73.3 million resulting in a gross profit of $35.7 million or 32.8% of revenues. With the expansion of the DME operations and the pharmacy operations during fiscal 2007 and 2008, primarily through acquisitions, the revenue mix has changed and will continue to change. The In-Home Health Care Services segment revenue remains the largest revenue source for the Company and totals 81.5% of total revenue. The cost of revenues in the In-Home Health Care Service primarily represents employee costs. The costs of revenue in the DME and pharmacy operations are largely the cost of products and medication sold to patients, as well as, to a lesser extend, the services provided to patients and supplies used in the delivery of other rental products. The DME cost of revenues also includes the depreciation of patient rental equipment (discussed in “Depreciation and Amortization” section).
The Services segment revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $92.6 million compared to $90.7 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $1.9 million or 2.1%. The increase in Services revenues was due to organic growth. The Services revenues as a percentage of total Company revenues decreased from 83.2% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 to 81.5% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007. This decrease reflects the Company’s emphasis on growing various other segments, which have, or are anticipated to have, higher profit margins. The Services gross profit percentage remained consistent for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 at 26.5% compared to 26.7% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006.
The DME segment revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 were $16.0 million compared to $16.3 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $337,000 or 2.1%. As expected, the DME gross profit percentage decreased to 64.8% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to 67.8% for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, primarily due lower revenue as a result of the sale of the Florida and Colorado location as previously discussed. Higher costs for equipment purchased contributed to the slight decline in the gross profit percentage.
The Pharmacy segment revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 were $5.0 million compared to $2.0 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $3.1 million or 154.3%. The increase in Pharmacy revenues is due to the acquisitions of PrairieStone on February 16, 2007 and JASCORP on July , 2007. The Pharmacy segment gross margin for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $1.5 million and the gross margin percentage was 30.8%. This compares to a gross margin of $427,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 and the gross margin percentage was 21.9%. The increase in the cost of revenues reflects the addition of PrairieStone and JASCORP. The increase in the gross margin percentage is primarily due the higher margins being generated from the pharmacy software revenue subsequent to the JASCORP acquisition.

Selling, General and Administrative
The following summarizes selling, general and administrative expenses by segment for the nine-month periods ended December 31, (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2007 | | % of Total | | 2006 | | % of Total |
| | | | | | SG&A | | | | | | SG&A |
| | | | |
Services | | $ | 20,515 | | | | 50.3 | % | | $ | 19,731 | | | | 55.8 | % |
Durable Medical Equipment: | | | 11,428 | | | | 28.0 | % | | | 11,385 | | | | 32.2 | % |
Pharmacy | | | 2,317 | | | | 5.7 | % | | | 396 | | | | 1.1 | % |
Corporate | | | 6,499 | | | | 15.9 | % | | | 3,858 | | | | 10.9 | % |
| | | | |
| | $ | 40,759 | | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 35,370 | | | | 100.0 | % |
| | | | |
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 were 35.9% of revenues compared to 32.5% of revenues for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, which represents a $5.4 million or 15.2% increase in total selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the following items:
| • | | The Pharmacy segment expenses increased by $1.9 million subsequent to the acquisitions of PrairieStone in February 2007 and JASCORP in July 2007, which contributed $1.6 million in selling, general and administrative expenses during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to no expenses in the same period of the prior year. |
|
| • | | Corporate expenses increased by $2.6 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006. Payroll increased $1.1 million compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily due to equity compensation as previously discussed in Note 11 of notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Most notably, the Company recognized an expense of $707,000 upon the vesting of 2,000,000 stock options held by the former CEO in July 2007. Additionally, professional fees increased by $1.5 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, primarily associated with the costs of complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley requirements. |
Depreciation and Amortization
The following summarizes depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations for the nine-month periods ended December 31, (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2007 | | 2006 |
| | |
Depreciation — cost of revenues | | $ | 1,878 | | | $ | 1,446 | |
| | |
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment | | $ | 948 | | | $ | 525 | |
Amortization of acquired intangible assets | | | 1,720 | | | | 1,166 | |
| | |
Depreciation and amortization — operating expense | | $ | 2,668 | | | $ | 1,691 | |
| | |
Depreciation expense included in cost of revenues, which represents depreciation related to equipment rented to patients, was approximately $1.9 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $1.5 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $432,000 or 29.9%. The increase reflects the significant increase in rental equipment in use by the DME segment, which is consistent with the growth in the DME segment. Rental equipment is depreciated over three years.
Total depreciation and amortization expense included in operating expenses was approximately $2.7 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $1.7 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $977,000 or 57.8%. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment was approximately $948,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $525,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $423,000 or 80.6%. The increase reflects the increase in property and equipment subsequent to various fiscal 2007 acquisitions. Also, the Company made a significant investment in software during fiscal 2007, and software is amortized over three years resulting in a significant increase in software amortization expense.
34
Amortization of acquired intangible assets was approximately $1.7 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $1.2 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $554,000 or 47.5%. The increase reflects the increase in the acquired intangible asset values subsequent to the various acquisitions in fiscal 2007 and 2008. Most significantly, the PrairieStone acquisition in February 2007 added $9.8 million in amortizable intangible assets.
Interest Expense and Income
The following summarizes interest expense and income for the nine-month periods ended December 31, (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2007 | | 2006 |
| | |
Interest expense | | $ | 3,109 | | | $ | 2,448 | |
Interest income | | | (77 | ) | | | (30 | ) |
| | |
| | $ | 3,032 | | | $ | 2,418 | |
| | |
Interest expense was $3.1 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $2.5 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $661,000 or 27.0%. Interest income was $77,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $30,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2007, the total balance of interest-bearing liabilities (lines of credit, long-term obligations, and capital leases) was $34.6 compared to $47.9 at December 31, 2006, a decrease of $13.4 million or 27.9%. The Company reduced its interest-bearing liabilities by more than $12.3 million during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007. Although the total interest-bearing liability balance has decreased, interest expense for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007 has increased due to higher interest rates on current borrowings and the timing of borrowings and payments. The nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 includes the Jana Master Fund, Ltd. borrowing for only six months as the debt agreement was entered into on June 29, 2006.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $56,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to $137,000 for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $81,000 or 59.1%. Due to the Company’s losses in recent years, it has paid nominal federal income taxes. The income tax expense is primarily the result of state income tax liabilities of the subsidiary operating companies. For federal income tax purposes, as of March 31, 2007, the Company had significant permanent and timing differences between book income and taxable income resulting in combined net deferred tax assets of $14.3 million to be utilized by the Company for which an offsetting valuation allowance has been established for the entire amount. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling $17.2 million that expires at various dates through 2027. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of certain of these net operating loss carryforwards upon a change of control of the Company. It has been determined that a change in control took place, and as such, the utilization of $770,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards will be subject to severe limitations in future periods.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company completed the sale of its retail Sears operations, DME Florida operations, DME Colorado operations and DME Alabama operations. In addition, the Company ceased its Care Clinic, Inc. operations, retail Wal-Mart operations and Florida pharmacy operations. The loss from discontinued operations for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was $10.1 million. This loss included the loss from the discontinued operations of $7.7 million and the net loss on disposal of $2.4 million. The loss from discontinued operations for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006 was $704,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our independent auditor’s report on the consolidated financial statements and schedule for the year ended March 31, 2007 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business and the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has experienced operating losses and negative cash flows since its inception and
35
currently has an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Liquidation values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments, if any, that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company has grown primarily through acquisition since the reverse merger in May 2004 and has incurred operating losses since that time. For the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company incurred net losses of $43.8 million and $4.7 million, respectively, and for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company incurred an additional net loss of $20.3 million. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company used approximately $7.1 million of cash in operations and had approximately $1.5 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2007. Additionally, certain of the Company’s debt agreements include subjective acceleration clauses and other provisions that allow lenders, in their sole discretion, to determine that the Company has experienced a material adverse change, which, in turn, would be an event of default.
Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon several factors, including our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis. Management’s current cash projections indicate improvement in the cash generated from operations during the remainder of fiscal 2008 and during fiscal 2009.
During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company sold or ceased operations of certain locations and lines of business that were under performing or did not complement our strategic direction. These operations are included in “discontinued operations” in the accompanying statements of operations. Management believes that the eliminations of these operations along with various other restructuring initiatives will significantly improve future cash flows. Further, these actions will allow management to focus on growing the continuing operations. Management continues to explore opportunities for reducing selling, general and administrative expenses and is committed to reducing costs to appropriate levels.
In May 2007, the Company raised $13.1 million through the sale of common stock (see Note 9 - Stockholders’ Equity).
In September 2007, the Company entered into a new revolving credit agreement with a potential borrowing capacity of $5 million. In December 2007, the Company amended its line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank to extend its maturity to October 1, 2009. In January 2008, the Company amended its debt agreement with Jana Master Fund, Ltd. in order to extend its maturity to October 1, 2009 and to adjust the interest rate to a fixed rate of 10% beginning April 1, 2008.
Management continues to explore other alternatives for raising additional capital, if necessary, including seeking new debt or equity financing and the additional divesting of non-strategic businesses.
Although management believes that its efforts in obtaining additional financing would be successful, there can be no assurance that its efforts will ultimately be successful.
The Company’s primary need for liquidity and capital resources is to execute its strategic initiatives, which in the near-term includes growth of the Pharmacy operations, specifically relating to DailyMed, through government programs, national marketing efforts and cross-selling opportunities. In addition, the Company will continue to explore possible acquisitions that could expand product offerings and increase it customer base.
At December 31, 2007, the Company maintained $1.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and had $1.4 million of funds available under its line of credit agreements. Working capital, which represents current assets less current liabilities, was $20.4 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was $7.1 million and $10.6 million for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease in the cash used during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was a result of the Company’s exit from the Care Clinics, Inc. operations effective August 2007. In addition, the Company has been focusing on reducing selling, general and administrative expenses during fiscal 2008.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.1 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $12.6 million for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006. Cash provided by investing activities included $5.8 million received upon the sale of the Florida and Colorado DME operations. Cash used in investing activities included $384,000 used in the purchase of JASCORP, LLC and an additional $1.3 million used to purchase equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activity was $1.5 million and $10.5 million for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company has financed its expansion and acquisitions through a combination of debt and equity financing. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company raised $12.4 million in a private placement of its common stock as more fully described below. During the nine-month period ended December 31, 2006, the Company raised $31.0 million through a combination of debt and equity financing, including the original $15.0 million debt from Jana Master Fund, Ltd. and a $10.0 million private placement of common stock in December 2006. The Company paid down approximately $10.8 million of debt (capital lease obligations are excluded) during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007.
In May 2007, the Company sold 11,019,000 shares of common stock at $1.19 per share to various investors in a private placement for aggregate proceeds of $13.1 million. The investors also received a total of 2,755,000 warrants to purchase common stock at $1.75 per share for a period of seven years. In conjunction with this private placement, the Company paid a placement fee of $670,000. A portion of the proceeds were used to pay off $2.6 million of outstanding debt due Jana Mater Fund Ltd. and the Trinity Healthcare line of credit balance with Comerica Bank of $2.0 million. In addition, the Company paid $1.0 million of the outstanding Comerica Bank line of credit.
On January 28, 2008, the Company and Jana Master Fund, Ltd. entered into an amendment to the Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated June 25, 2007, in the original principal amount of $17,000,000. The amendment to the note extends the maturity date to October 1, 2009. The interest rate through March 31, 2008 is equal to the one-year LIBOR rate plus 8%. Effective April 1, 2008, the interest rate will be adjusted to 10%. 50% of the accrued unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the last day of each calendar year quarter. All remaining unpaid accrued interest shall be due and payable on the maturity date of October 1, 2009. If the Company sells assets, other than inventory in the ordinary course of business, it is required to use a portion of the proceeds to pay down the outstanding debt. Specifically, the Company must remit to Jana Master Fund Ltd. 50% of the net proceeds on the sale of assets up to $10 million and 75% of the net proceeds to the extent that the aggregate net proceeds exceed $10 million.
On September 26, 2007, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Arcadia Products, Inc., entered into a line of credit with Presidential Healthcare Credit Corporation. The credit agreement provides the Company with a revolving credit facility of up to $5.0 million. The credit agreement provides that the Company may request advances up to 85% of the eligible receivables minus any amounts reserved pursuant to the agreement, if applicable. The maturity date is September 26, 2010. The line of credit agreement requires the Company to maintain a lockbox account. Advances under the credit facility bear interest at the prime rate plus 1.75% per annum. The line of credit agreement is secured by the accounts receivable of Arcadia Products, Inc. and its subsidiaries and is guaranteed by the Company. As of December 31, 2007, there was no outstanding balance associated with this line of credit.
Net accounts receivable were $26.1 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $33.4 million at March 31, 2007. The Services and DME segments account for 74% and 22%, respectively, of total accounts
37
receivable at December 31, 2007 compared to 69% and 26% at March 31, 2007.
The integration of acquisitions in the DME segment during the last two fiscal years has affected the related collection process. Specifically, in certain circumstances, the Company had difficulties obtaining the necessary third-party payer provider numbers after a change in ownership. This resulted in the re-working of the Company’s licensure process, which can take up to a full year depending on the laws and licensure requirements in the state of operations and the various payers involved. In addition to the licensure issues, the Company has experienced difficulties in obtaining the documentation necessary for reimbursement for goods and services provided prior to the applicable acquisition date.
The Company has a limited number of customers with individually large amounts due at any given balance sheet date. The Company’s payer mix for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2007 was as follows:
| | | | |
Government-funded | | | 27 | % |
Institutions | | | 41 | % |
Commercial Insurance | | | 11 | % |
Private Pay | | | 21 | % |
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had total outstanding borrowings under its line of credit agreements of $17.4 million. The Company had approximately $527,000 available on its line of credit with Comerica Bank, which borrowings are contingent on the results of supporting borrowing base calculations. In addition, the Company had approximately $849,000 available on its line of credit with Presidential Healthcare, and no amounts were outstanding. Finally, the Company’s line of credit with AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation increased from $2,500,000 to $4,000,000 in September 2007. Borrowings are subject to PrairieStone satisfying certain borrowing base requirements and, beginning in June 2007, PrairieStone achieving certain EBITDA targets. To date, the PrairieStone entity has not satisfied the borrowing base requirement nor achieved the EBITDA targets necessary to draw dawn the additional amounts.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had total long-term obligations of $34.6 million, of which $15.6 million is payable to Jana Master Fund Ltd. and $15.0 million is payable to Comerica Bank under a line of credit agreement.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which amends and clarifies previous guidance on the accounting for deferred income taxes as presented in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 and there was no material effect to the consolidated financial statements. As a result, there was no cumulative effect related to the adoption of FIN 48.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. Management is currently evaluating the statement to determine what, if any, impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which permits companies to make a one-time election to carry eligible types of financial assets and liabilities at fair value, even if measurement is not required by GAAP. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the statement to determine what, if any, impact it will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The majority of our cash balances are held primarily in highly liquid commercial bank accounts. The Company utilizes lines of credit to fund operational cash needs. The risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is limited to our investment portfolio and our borrowings. We do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant effect on our results of operations or cash flows. All our revenues
38
since inception have been in the U.S. and in U.S. Dollars; therefore, we have not yet adopted a strategy for the future currency rate exposure as it is not anticipated that foreign revenues are likely to occur in the near future.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures.As of December 31, 2007, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2007, because of the identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2007 described below, the remediation of which was not completed as of December 31, 2007. Notwithstanding such material weaknesses, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Design of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our chief executive officer and interim chief financial officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
| • | | Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
|
| • | | Provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; |
|
| • | | Provide reasonable assurances that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
|
| • | | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Status of Management’s Remedial Action. At March 31, 2007, we reported that we had three material weakness as follows:
| • | | Management did not design and maintain effective controls relating to the month-end closing and financial reporting process due to lack of evidence of review surrounding various account reconciliations and properly evidenced journal entries. Additionally, the Company had insufficient personnel resources and technical accounting and reporting expertise within the Company’s financial closing and reporting functions. |
|
| • | | Management did not maintain adequate control relating to the business acquisition process due to lack of formalized due diligence procedures and evidentiary support of purchase accounting review. |
|
| • | | Management did not design and maintain controls to analyze and record appropriate adjustments to the accounts receivable reserve and properly monitor review of reductions to accounts receivable due to ineffective controls over contract pricing and the standardization of a contract pricing system emphasized by changes in payer mix and other contracting licensure issues. |
We have developed a remediation plan that we believe will resolve the material weaknesses. We are in the process of implementing this plan and believe the full implementation will make the design and operation of our internal controls over financial reporting effective.
Changes in Internal Controls.Other than the remediation plan mentioned above, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are a defendant from time to time in lawsuits incidental to our business. We are not currently subject to, and none of our subsidiaries are subject to, any material legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the information set forth under Item 1A of Part I to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report including Part I, Item 2, you should carefully consider the following factors, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, business or the market for our common shares and could cause actual results and actual events that occur to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report. As previously stated elsewhere in this report, we caution you that statements contained in this report include forward-looking statements. The Company claims all safe harbor and other legal protections provided to it by law for all of its forward-looking statements. The Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements, contained in Part I, Item 2, is incorporated herein by this reference.
We recently became a public company and have a limited operating history as a public company upon which you can base an investment decision.
The shares of our common stock were quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board from August 2002 through June 2006 and began trading on the American Stock Exchange in July 2006. We have a limited operating history as a public company upon which you can make an investment decision, or upon which we can accurately forecast future sales. You should, therefore, consider us subject to all of the business risks associated with a new business. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the expenses, difficulties and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation and initial operations of a new and unproven business.
To finance acquisitions made as part of our growth strategy, the Company incurred significant debt which must be repaid. Our debt level could adversely affect our financial health and affect our ability to run our business.
We acquired Arcadia Services and Arcadia Rx on May 10, 2004 and have acquired approximately 30 additional companies since that time. We incurred substantial debt to finance these acquisitions. This debt has been reduced periodically through capital infusions. As of December 31, 2007, the current portion of our debt, including lines of credit and capital lease obligations, totals approximately $1.1 million, while the long-term portion of our debt totals approximately $33.5 million, for a total of approximately $34.6 million. This level of debt could have consequences to holders of our common stock. Below are some of the material potential consequences resulting from this amount of debt:
| o | | We may be unable to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. |
|
| o | | Our ability to adapt to changing market conditions may be hampered. We may be more vulnerable in a volatile market and at a competitive disadvantage to our competitors that have less debt. |
|
| o | | Our operating flexibility is more limited due to financial and other restrictive covenants, including restrictions on incurring additional debt, creating liens on our properties, making acquisitions and paying dividends. |
|
| o | | We are subject to the risks that interest rates and our interest expense will increase. |
|
| o | | Our ability to plan for, or react to, changes in our business is more limited. |
Under certain circumstances, we may be able to incur additional indebtedness in the future. If we add new debt, the related risks that we now face could intensify. In order to repay our debt obligations timely, we must maintain adequate cash flow from operations or raise additional capital from equity investment or other sources. Cash, which we must use to repay these obligations, will reduce cash available for other purposes, such as payment of operating expenses, investment in new products and services offered by the Company, self-financing of acquisitions to grow the Company’s business, or distribution to our
40
shareholders as a return on investment.
Due to our debt level, we may not be able to increase the amount we can draw on our revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank, or to obtain credit from other sources, to fund our future needs for working capital or acquisitions.
As of December 31, 2007, we have total outstanding long-term obligations (lines of credit, notes payable and capital lease obligations) of $34.6 million. Due to our debt level, there is the risk that Comerica Bank or other sources of credit may decline to increase the amount we are permitted to draw on the revolving credit facilities or to lend additional funds for working capital or other purposes. This development could result in various consequences to the Company, ranging from implementation of cost reductions, which could impact our product and service offerings, to the modification or abandonment of our present business strategy.
The terms of our Credit Agreements with Comerica Bank subject us to the risk of foreclosure on certain property.
RKDA granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries granted the bank security interests in all of their assets. The credit agreement provides that the debt will mature on October 1, 2009. If an event of default occurs, Comerica Bank may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise its right to foreclose on the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. and on all of the assets of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Any such default and resulting foreclosure would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
In order to repay our debt obligations, as well as to pursue our growth strategy, we may seek additional equity financing, which could result in dilution to our security holders.
The Company may continue to raise additional financing through the equity markets to repay debt obligations and to fund operations. Further, because of the capital requirements needed to pursue our growth strategy, we may access the public or private equity markets whenever conditions appear to us to be favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time. The Company also plans to continue to expand product and service offerings. Cash flow from operations is not expected to entirely fund these efforts, and the scope of these plans may be determined by the Company’s ability to generate cash flow or to secure additional new funding. To the extent we access the equity markets, the price at which we sell shares may be lower than the current market prices for our common stock. If we obtain financing through the sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities, this could result in dilution to our security holders by increasing the number of shares of outstanding stock. We cannot predict the effect this dilution may have on the price of our common stock.
The Company has completed approximately 30 acquisitions since the reverse merger in May 2004. The licensure and credentialing process under the new ownership must be satisfied timely in order to bill and collect for services rendered to beneficiaries of government-based health care programs and other insurance carriers. Cash flow related to these transitions can be impaired sufficient to require additional external financing in the form of debt or equity.
Over the past two years, the Company has made several acquisitions of durable medical and respiratory equipment businesses, in certain situations, the transitional credentialing has taken longer than expected, which has slowed the billing and collections process, resulting in a negative impact to the timing of cash in flows from the respective entities or in the worst case scenario, resulting in uncollectible fees for services provided. Management has recently brought additional resources to these efforts. The Company’s experience in ultimately billing and collecting for services provided in the transition period in question has been somewhat inconsistent. The inability to collect receivables timely or not at all could have a negative impact on its ability to meet its current obligations timely. This delay in collecting cash from normal operations could force the Company to pursue outside financing that it would not otherwise need to pursue.
To the extent we do not raise adequate funds from the equity markets to satisfy debt obligations, we would need to seek debt financing or modify or abandon our growth strategy or product and service offerings.
Although we raised $13.1 million in equity financing in May 2007, these funds, in combination with funds generated from operations and the divestiture of certain business operations, may not be adequate to satisfy
41
short-term cash needs. To the extent that we are unsuccessfully in raising funds from the equity markets or through the possible additional divestitures of certain businesses, we will need to seek debt financing. In this event, we may need to modify or abandon our growth strategy or may need to eliminate certain product or service offerings, because debt financing is generally at a higher cost than financing through equity investment. Higher financing costs, modification or abandonment of our growth strategy, or the elimination of product or service offerings could negatively impact our profitability and financial position, which in turn could negatively impact the price of our common stock.
Because the Company is dependent on key management and advisors, the loss of the services or advice of any of these persons could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects. We also face certain risks as a result of the recent changes to our management team.
The success of the Company is dependent on its ability to attract and retain qualified and experienced management and personnel. We do not presently maintain key person life insurance for any of our personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain key personnel in the future, and the Company’s inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on us. We have recently made significant changes in our senior management team. In addition, the Company has experienced several changes in key accounting personnel as we consolidated the accounting function into one location. Our management team will need to work together effectively to successfully develop and implement our business strategies and financial operations. In addition, management will need to devote significant attention and resources to preserve and strengthen relationships with employees, customers and the investor community. If our new management team is unable to achieve these goals, our ability to grow our business and successfully meet operational challenges could be impaired.
A decline in the rate of growth of the staffing and home care industries, or negative growth, could adversely affect us by reducing sales, thereby resulting in less cash being available for the payment of operating expenses, debt obligations and to pursue our strategic plans.
We believe the staffing industry, including both medical and non-medical staffing, is a large and growing market. The growth in medical staffing is being driven by the shrinkage in the number of healthcare professionals at the same time as the demand for their services is increasing. Healthcare providers are increasingly using temporary staffing to manage fluctuations in demand for their services. Growth in non-medical staffing is driven by companies seeking to control personnel costs by increasingly using temporary employees to meet fluctuating personnel needs. Our business strategy within our Services segment is premised on the continued and consistent growth of the staffing and home care industries. A decline in the rate of growth of the staffing and home care industries, or negative growth, could adversely affect us by reducing sales, resulting in lower cash collections. Even if we were to pursue cost reductions in this event, there is a risk that less cash would be available to us to pay operating expenses, in which case we may have to contract our existing businesses by abandoning selected product or service offerings or geographic markets served, as well as to modify or abandon our present business strategy. We could have less cash available to pay our short and long-term debt obligations as they become due, in which event we could default on our obligations. Even if none of these events occurred following a negative change in the growth of the staffing and home care industries, the market for our shares of common stock could react negatively to a decline in growth or negative growth of these industries, potentially resulting in the diminished value of our Company’s common stock.
Sales of certain of our services and products are largely dependent upon payments from governmental programs and private insurance, and cost containment initiatives may reduce our revenues, thereby harming our performance.
We have a number of contractual arrangements with governmental programs and private insurers, although no individual arrangement accounted for more than 10% of our net revenues for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2007, 2006, or 2005. Nevertheless, sales of certain of our services and products are largely dependent upon payments from governmental programs and private insurance, and cost containment initiatives may reduce our revenues, thereby harming our performance.
In the U.S., healthcare providers and consumers who purchase durable medical equipment, prescription drug products and related products generally rely on third party payers to reimburse all or part of the cost of the healthcare product. Such third party payers include Medicare, Medicaid and other health insurance and managed care plans. Reimbursement by third party payers may depend on a number of factors, including the payer’s determination that the use of our products is clinically useful and cost-effective, medically necessary and not experimental or investigational. Also, third party payers are increasingly challenging the
42
prices charged for medical products and services. Since reimbursement approval is required from each payer individually, seeking such approvals can be a time consuming and costly process. In the future, this could require us to provide supporting scientific, clinical and cost-effectiveness data for the use of our products to each payer separately. Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved healthcare products. Third party payers are increasingly attempting to contain the costs of healthcare products and services by limiting both coverage and the level of reimbursement for new and existing products and services. There can be no assurance that third party reimbursement coverage will be available or adequate for any products or services that we develop.
In addition to the potential negative impact on our revenue due to future cost containment efforts, if Medicare reimbursement rates for certain durable medical equipment are reduced for the calendar year 2008 or 2009, the Company will be obligated to repay a portion of the proceeds received from its sale of the Florida and Colorado durable medical equipment operations in September 2007. The potential purchase price adjustment depends on in what calendar year the legislation is enacted and the number of months that the new legislation would provide for reimbursement. The maximum amount will be $1,000,000 if the number of months is reduced to 18 months or lower during 2008.
We could be subject to severe fines and possible exclusion from participation in federal and state healthcare programs if we fail to comply with the laws and regulations applicable to our business or if those laws and regulations change.
Certain of the healthcare-related products and services offered by the Company are subject to stringent laws and regulations at both the federal and state levels, requiring compliance with burdensome and complex billing, substantiation and record-keeping requirements. Financial relationships between our Company and physicians and other referral sources are subject to governmental regulation. Government officials and the public will continue to debate healthcare reform and regulation. Changes in healthcare law, new interpretations of existing laws, or changes in payment methodology may have a material impact on our business and results of operations.
The markets in which the Company operates are highly competitive and the Company may be unable to compete successfully against competitors with greater resources.
The Company competes in markets that are constantly changing, intensely competitive (given low barriers to entry), highly fragmented and subject to dynamic economic conditions. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, reduced gross margins, loss of customers, and loss of market share, any of which could harm our net revenue and results of operations. Many of the Company’s competitors and potential competitors relative to the Company’s products and services in the areas of durable medical equipment, and oxygen and respiratory services, have more capital, substantial marketing, and technical resources and expertise in specialized financial services than does the Company. These competitors include: on-line marketers, national wholesalers, and national and regional distributors. Further, the Company may face a significant competitive challenge from alliances entered into between and among its competitors, major HMO’s or chain drugstores, as well as from larger competitors created through industry consolidation. These potential competitors may be able to respond more quickly than the Company to emerging market changes or changes in customer needs. In addition, certain of our competitors may have or may obtain significantly greater financial and marketing resources than we may have. In addition, relatively few barriers to entry exist in local healthcare markets. As a result, we could encounter increased competition in the future that may increase pricing pressure and limit our ability to maintain or increase our market share for our durable medical equipment, mail order pharmacy and related businesses.
We may not be able to successfully integrate acquired businesses, which could result in our failure to increase revenues or to avoid duplication of costs among acquired businesses, thereby adversely affecting our financial results and profitability.
The successful integration of an acquired business is dependent on various factors including the size of the acquired business, the assets and liabilities of the acquired business, the complexity of system conversions, the scheduling of multiple acquisitions in a given geographic area and management’s execution of the integration plan. Our business plan has in part been premised on avoiding duplication of cost among our existing and acquired businesses where possible. If we fail to successfully integrate in these key areas, our Company’s financial results and profitability will be adversely affected, due to the failure to capitalize on the economies of scale presented by spreading our cost structure over a wider revenue base.
43
The failure to implement the Company’s business strategy may result in our inability to be profitable and adversely impact the value of our common stock.
We anticipate that the Company will continue to pursue an aggressive internal growth strategy, which will depend, in large part, upon our ability to develop and expand the Company’s businesses. We believe that the failure to implement an aggressive growth strategy, or a failure to successfully integrate recently acquired businesses, may result in our inability to be profitable, because our business plan is premised in part on capitalizing on the economies of scale presented by spreading our cost structure over a wider revenue base. Our inability to achieve profitability could adversely impact the value of our common stock.
We cannot predict the impact that registration of shares may have on the price of the Company’s shares of common stock.
We cannot predict the effect, if any, that sales of, or the availability for sale of, shares of our common stock by selling security holders pursuant to a prospectus or otherwise will have on the market price of our securities prevailing from time to time. The possibility that substantial amounts of our common stock might enter the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to fund acquisitions or to raise capital in the future through the sales of securities. Sales of substantial amounts of our securities, including shares issued upon the exercise of options or warrants, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely effect prevailing market prices for our securities.
The price of our common stock has been, and will likely continue to be, volatile, which could diminish the ability to recoup an investment, or to earn a return on an investment, in our Company.
The market price of our common stock, like that of the securities of many other companies with limited operating history and public float, has fluctuated over a wide range, and it is likely that the price of our common stock will fluctuate in the future. Since the reverse merger on May 10, 2004, the closing price of our common stock, as quoted by the OTC Bulletin Board and the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) beginning July 3, 2006, has fluctuated from a low of $0.61 to a high of $3.50. From October 1, 2006 through February 5, 2008, our common stock has fluctuated from a low of $0.61 to a high of $3.42. Slow demand for our common stock has resulted in limited liquidity, and it may be difficult to dispose of the Company’s securities. Due to the volatility of the price our common stock, an investor may be unable to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price paid for them, thereby exposing an investor to the risk that he may not recoup an investment in our Company or earn a return on an investment. In the past, securities class action litigation has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If we are the target of similar litigation in the future, our Company would be exposed to incurring significant litigation costs. This would also divert management’s attention and resources, all of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations.
Resale of our securities by any holder may be limited and affected by state blue-sky laws, which could adversely affect the price of our securities and the holder’s investment in our Company.
Under the securities laws of some states, shares of common stock and warrants can be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states, warrants and shares of common stock may not be sold unless these shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. The requirement of a seller to comply with the requirements of state blue sky laws may lead to delay or inability of a holder of our securities to dispose of such securities, thereby causing an adverse effect on the resale price of our securities and your investment in our Company.
The issuance of our preferred stock could materially impact the price of common stock and the rights of holders of our common stock.
The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of serial preferred stock, par value $0.001. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Except as otherwise provided in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors has authority to fix by resolution adopted before the issuance of any shares of each particular series of preferred stock, the designation, powers, preferences, and relative participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions. The issuance of our preferred stock could materially impact the price of common stock and the rights of holders of our common stock, including voting rights. The issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock, and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our shares of common stock. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock may
44
enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.
The exercise of common stock warrants may depress our stock price and may result in dilution to our common security holders.
Approximately 22.2 million warrants to purchase 22.2 million shares of our common stock are issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2007. The market price of our common stock is above the exercise price of some of the outstanding warrants; therefore, holders of those securities are likely to exercise their warrants and sell the common stock acquired upon exercise of such warrants in the open market. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market by holders of warrants may depress the prevailing market price for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the future sale of our equity securities. Additionally, if the holders of outstanding warrants exercise those warrants, our common security holders will incur dilution. The exercise price of all common stock warrants, including Classes A, B-1 and B-2 Warrants, is subject to adjustment upon stock dividends, splits and combinations, as well as certain anti-dilution adjustments as set forth in the respective common stock warrants.
We have granted stock options to certain management employees and directors as compensation, which may depress our stock price and result in dilution to our common security holders.
As of December 31, 2007, options to purchase approximately 6.1 million shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding. On August 18, 2006, the Board of Directors approved the Arcadia Resources, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the security holders on September 26, 2006. The Plan allows for the granting of additional incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted shares up to 5 million shares (2.5% of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock as of the date the Plan was approved). The market price of our common stock is above the exercise price of some of the outstanding options; therefore, holders of those securities are likely to exercise their options and sell the common stock acquired upon exercise of such options in the open market. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market by holders of options may depress the prevailing market price for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the future sale of our equity securities. Additionally, if the holders of outstanding options exercise those options, our common security holders will incur dilution. The exercise price of all common stock options is subject to adjustment upon stock dividends, splits and combinations, as well as anti-dilution adjustments as set forth in the option agreement.
As of February 8, 2008, the former Chief Operating Officer has 2,135,000 options at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, which expire on February 28, 2008. In addition, the former Chief Executive Officer has 2,000,000 options at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, which expire on March 15, 2008. The exercising of these options and the subsequent sale of the common stock in the open market could depress the prevailing market price for our common stock.
The Company has entered into several agreements whereby it has guaranteed the stock price at certain times in the future. If the future stock price is below the guaranteed stock price, the Company is obligated to “true up” the difference in either common stock or cash. The issuance of common stock would result in dilution to our common stock holders, and the settlement of the liability with cash would decrease cash available for other purpose, such as funding operations, paying down debt or investing in growth initiatives.
Pursuant to the purchase agreements relating to the PrairieStone and JASCORP, LLC acquisitions entered into in February 2007 and July 2007, respectively, the Company guaranteed the stock price at the one-year anniversary dates of the acquisitions. If our future stock price at these future dates is below the guaranteed price, then the Company is obligated to “true up” the difference in either common stock or cash or a combination thereof, at the Company’s sole discretion.
In addition, in order to induce certain individuals to accept common stock in lieu of cash relating to several transactions, the Company guaranteed that these individuals would receive a certain price per share of common stock if and when they sell their shares through certain dates, the last of which is December 15, 2008. If these individuals do not receive the guaranteed price and if certain other defined conditions are satisfied, then the Company is obligated to “true up” the difference in either common stock or cash or a combination thereof, at the Company’s sole discretion.
The amount of the Company’s aggregate “true up” obligation is dependent on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the various future dates specified in the referenced agreements. Based on the
45
lowest and highest closing prices of the Company’s common stock in the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2007, $0.78 and $1.49 per share, respectively, the Company’s total aggregate obligation would range from $3,570,494 (4,577,556 shares at $0.64 per share) to $2,720,000 (1,825,503 shares at $1.49 per share).
The issuance of common stock in the future to settle these “true up” liabilities would result in dilution to our common stock holders. The payment of the “true up” liabilities with cash would use cash that could otherwise be used to fund operations, to pay down debt or to invest in growth initiatives.
We are dependent on our affiliated agencies and our internal sales force to sell our services and products, the loss of which could adversely affect our business.
We rely heavily upon our affiliated agencies to sell our staffing and home care services and on our internal sales force to sell our durable medical equipment and pharmacy products. Arcadia Services’ affiliated agencies are owner-operated businesses. The office locations maintained by our affiliated agencies are listed on the Company’s website. The primary responsibilities of Arcadia Services’ affiliated agencies include the recruitment and training of field staff employed by Arcadia Services and generating and maintaining sales to Arcadia Services’ customers. The arrangements with affiliated agencies are formalized through a standard contractual agreement, which state performance requirements of the affiliated agencies. Our affiliated agencies and internal sales force operate in particular defined geographic regions. Our employees provide the services to our customers and the affiliated agents and internal sales force are restricted by non-competition agreements. In the event of loss of our affiliated agents or internal sales force personnel, we would recruit new sales and marketing personnel and/or affiliated agents, which could cause our operating costs to increase and our sales to fall in the interim.
For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, we received a going concern opinion from our independent auditors due to our recurring losses. This could negatively affect our business and results of operation.
After conducting an audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, our independent auditors issued an unqualified opinion on the financial statements that included a material uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses from operations, which could adversely impact our ability to raise additional capital. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis. The Company has raised additional cash through equity and debt financing and the sale of certain non-strategic businesses during the first nine months of fiscal 2008, but management anticipates that the Company may require additional financing to fund its growth strategy during the remainder of the year. The Company’s new management team is exploring various alternatives for raising additional capital, including seeking new debt or equity financing, potential divestitures of additional non-strategic businesses, and pursuing joint venture arrangements. To the extent that these alternatives are insufficient to fund operating activities over the next year, management anticipates raising capital through offering equity securities in private or public offerings or through subordinated debt. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are required or if the funds cannot be obtained on terms favorable to the Company, management may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate its current business strategy. Additionally, the Company must continue to satisfy the listing standards of the American Stock Exchange. Although the Company has received no notification of any adverse action, the American Stock Exchange, as a matter of policy, will consider the suspension or delisting of any security when, in the opinion of the Exchange the financial condition and/or operating results of the issuer appear to be unsatisfactory.
In connection with our evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting as required by Section 404 under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we identified certain material weaknesses, which could impact our ability to provide reliable and accurate financial reports and prevent fraud. We could fail to meet our financial reporting responsibilities in future reporting periods if these weaknesses are not remediated timely, or if any future failures by us to maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting result in additional material weaknesses.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires detailed review, documentation and testing of our internal controls over financial reporting. This detailed review, documentation and testing includes the assessment of the risks that could adversely affect the timely and accurate preparation of our financial statements and the identification of internal controls that are currently in place to mitigate the risks of untimely or inaccurate preparation of these financial statements. The Company was required to comply with the requirements of Section 404 for the first time in fiscal 2007. As part of this first-year review, management identified several control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses at March 31, 2007.

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board has defined “material weakness” as “a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.” Although the Company is implementing remedial controls, if we fail to remedy these material weaknesses in a timely manner, or if we fail in the future to maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting which result in additional material weaknesses, it could cause us to improperly record our financial and operating results and could result in us failing to meet our financial reporting responsibilities in future reporting periods.
We may not be able to secure the additional financing to fund operating activities through the end of fiscal year 2008, which would raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and would have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
Management anticipates that we may require additional financing to fund operating activities during the remainder of fiscal 2008. The Company’s new management team has developed a business plan that addresses operations, the expectation of positive cash flow and alternatives for raising additional capital, including potential divestitures of non-strategic businesses and/or seeking new debt or equity financing. To the extent that seeking new debt, restructuring operations or selling non-strategic businesses are insufficient to fund operating activities over the next year, management anticipates raising capital through offering equity securities in private or public offerings or through subordinated debt. Our ability to secure additional financing in this time period may be difficult due to our history of operating losses and negative cash flows, and we cannot guarantee that such additional sources of financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. An inability to raise sufficient capital to fund our operations would have a material adverse affect on our business and would raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which would have a material adverse effect on our businesses and prospects.
Our financial results could suffer as a result of a goodwill and/or intangible asset impairment expense being recognized.
As of March 31, 2007, a goodwill impairment expense of $17,197,000 was recognized in the Durable Medical Equipment segment and an additional customer relationships impairment expense of $1,457,000 was recognized in the Durable Medical Equipment segment, for total impairment expense in the Durable Medical Equipment segment of $18,654,000. Depending on the Company’s financial performance, the carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets could continue to be negatively impacted. We will perform impairment tests periodically, and at least annually, in the future. Whenever we perform impairment tests, the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets could exceed their implied fair value and would, therefore, require adjustment. Such adjustment would result in a non-cash charge to our operating income in that period, which could harm our financial results.
Our financial results could suffer if the goodwill and other intangible assets we acquired in our acquisition of PrairieStone become impaired, or as a result of costs associated with the acquisition.
Primarily as a result of our acquisition of PrairieStone in February 2007, approximately 59% of our total assets are goodwill and other intangibles as of December 31, 2007, of which approximately $34.3 million is goodwill and $24.8 million is other intangibles. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Other intangibles are also reviewed at least annually or more frequently, if certain conditions exist, and may be amortized. Management is contemplating cost reduction initiatives that may result in the closure or sale of certain non-strategic businesses. Depending upon the outcome of such initiatives, the carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets could be negatively impacted. When we perform impairment tests, the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets could exceed its implied fair value and would, therefore, require adjustment. Such adjustment would result in a charge to our operating income in that period, which would likely harm our financial results. In addition, we believe that we may incur charges to operations, which are not currently reasonably estimable, in subsequent quarters after the acquisition was completed, to reflect costs associated with integrating PrairieStone. It is possible that we will incur additional material charges in subsequent quarters to reflect additional costs associated with the acquisition.
We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flow that may continue into the foreseeable future.
We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flow. If we fail to execute our strategy to achieve and maintain profitability in the future, investors could lose confidence in the value of our common stock, which could cause our stock price to decline, adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital, and could adversely affect our ability to meet the financial covenants contained in our credit agreement with
47
our financial institution. Further, if we continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow we may have to implement significant cost cutting measures, which could include a substantial reduction in work force, location closures, and/or the sale or disposition of certain subsidiaries. We cannot assure that any of the cost cutting measures we implement will be effective or result in profitability or positive cash flow. Our acquisitions may not create the benefits and results we expect, adversely affecting our strategy to achieve profitability. To achieve profitability, we will also need to, among other things, effectively integrate our acquisitions, increase our revenue base, reduce our cost structure and realize economies of scale. If we are unable to achieve and maintain profitability, our stock price could be materially adversely affected.
We may not be able to meet the financial covenants contained in our credit facility, and we may not be able to obtain a waiver for such violations.
Under our existing credit facility, we are required to adhere to certain financial covenants. As of March 31, 2007, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants and received a waiver from the lender. As of December 31, 2007, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. If there are future covenant violations and we do not receive a waiver for such future covenant violations, then our lender could declare a default under the credit facility and, among other actions, increase our borrowing costs and demand the immediate repayment of the credit facility. If such demand is made and we are unable to refinance the credit facility or obtain an alternative source of financing, such demand for repayment would have a material adverse affect on our financial condition and liquidity. Based on our history of operating losses, we cannot guarantee that we would be able to refinance or obtain alternative financing.
In addition to the financial covenants, our existing credit facility with Comerica Bank includes a subjective acceleration clause and requires the Company to maintain a lockbox. Currently, the Company has the ability to control the funds in the deposit account and determine the amount issued to pay down the line of credit balance. The bank reserves the right under the security agreement to request that the indebtedness be on a remittance basis in the future, whether or not an event of default has occurred. If the bank exercises this right, then the Company would be forced to use its cash to pay down this indebtedness rather than for other needs, including day-to-day operations, expansion initiatives or the pay down of debt which accrues at a higher interest rate.
The disposition of businesses that do not fit with our evolving strategy can be highly uncertain.
In September 2007, we sold our Florida and Colorado durable medical equipment businesses. We will continue to evaluate the potential disposition of additional assets and businesses that are not profitable or are no longer consistent with our strategic objectives. When we decide to sell assets or a business, we may encounter difficulty in finding buyers or alternative exit strategies on acceptable terms in a timely manner, which could delay the accomplishment of our strategic objectives, or we may dispose of a business at a price or on terms which are less than we had anticipated. There is also a risk that we sell a business whose subsequent performance exceeds our expectations, in which case our decision would have potentially sacrificed enterprise value. Conversely, we may be too optimistic about a particular business’s prospects, in which case we may be unable to find a buyer at a price acceptable to us and, therefore, may have potentially sacrificed enterprise value.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) recently announced a competitive bidding program related to durable medical equipment. The program will operate within the ten largest metropolitan areas during 2008 and then be expanded to 70 additional areas in 2009. As a durable medical equipment vendor, the competitive bidding program could result in loss of revenue due to over-bidding by the Company and will increase the compliance costs.
Starting in 2007, Medicare is scheduled to begin to phase in a nationwide competitive bidding program to replace the existing fee schedule payment methodology. The program is to begin in 10 high-population metropolitan statistical areas, or MSAs, expanding to 80 MSAs in 2009 and additional areas thereafter. Under competitive bidding, suppliers compete for the right to provide items to beneficiaries in a defined region. Only a limited number of suppliers will be selected in any given MSA, resulting in restricted supplier choices for beneficiaries. The Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 permits certain exemptions from competitive bidding, including exemptions for rural areas and areas with low population density within urban areas that are not competitive, unless there is a significant national market through mail-order for the particular item. On April 24, 2006, CMS issued proposed regulations regarding the implementation of competitive bidding. The proposed regulations include, among other things, proposals regarding how CMS will determine in which MSAs to initiate the program, conditions to be met for awarding contracts, and the “grandfathering” of existing oxygen and other HME agreements with beneficiaries if a supplier is not selected. The proposed regulations also would revise the methodology CMS would use to price new products not included in competitive bidding. The proposed regulations do not provide many of the details
48
needed to assess the impact that competitive bidding and other elements of the rule will have on our business. Until the regulations are finalized, significant uncertainty remains as to how the competitive bidding program will be implemented. At this time, we do not know which of our products will be subject to competitive bidding, nor can we predict the impact that it will have on our business.
Several anti-takeover measures under Nevada law could delay or prevent a change of our control, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our shares of Common Stock.
Several anti-takeover measures under Nevada law could delay or prevent a change of our control, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our shares of Common Stock. This could make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. This could negatively impact the value of an investment in our Company, by discouraging a potential suitor who may otherwise be willing to offer a premium for shares of the Company’s common stock.
