Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Revenue Recognition Our Catasys contracts are generally designed to provide cash fees to us on a monthly basis based on enrolled members. To the extent our contracts may include a minimum performance guarantee; we reserve a portion of the monthly fees that may be at risk until the performance measurement period is completed. To the extent we receive case rates or other fees in advance that are not subject to the performance guarantees, we recognize the case rate ratably over the twelve months of the program. Cost of Services Cost of healthcare services consists primarily of salaries related to our care coaches, healthcare provider claims payments, and fees charged by our third party administrators for processing these claims. Healthcare services cost of services is recognized in the period in which an eligible member receives services. We contract with doctors and licensed behavioral healthcare professionals, on a fee-for-services basis. We determine that a member has received services when we receive a claim or in the absence of a claim, by utilizing member data recorded in the On Trak TM Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Credit Risk We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. Cash is deposited with what we believe are highly credited, quality financial institutions. The deposited cash may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. At March 31, 2016, cash and cash equivalents exceeding federally insured limits totaled $110,900. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, four customers accounted for approximately 94% of revenues and three customers accounted for approximately 93% of accounts receivable. Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares, consisting of 3,720,716 and 23,409,694 common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive. Share-Based Compensation Our 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), provides for the issuance of up to 1,825,000 shares of our common stock. Incentive stock options (ISOs) under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code and non-qualified options (NSOs) are authorized under the Plan. We have granted stock options to executive officers, employees, members of our board of directors, and certain outside consultants. The terms and conditions upon which options become exercisable vary among grants, but option rights expire no later than ten years from the date of grant and employee and board of director awards generally vest over three to five years. At March 31, 2016, we had 1,464,154 vested and unvested shares outstanding and 303,609 shares available for future awards under the Plan. Total share-based compensation expense on a consolidated basis was $174,000 and $828,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Stock Options – Employees and Directors We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the date of grant. We estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Share-based compensation expense recognized for employees and directors for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $174,000 and $826,000, respectively. For share-based awards issued to employees and directors, share-based compensation is attributed to expense using the straight-line single option method. Share-based compensation expense recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, reduced for estimated forfeitures. Accounting rules for stock options require forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. There were no options granted to employees and directors during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 1,300,000 options were granted to employees and directors during the same period in 2015 under the Plan. Employee and director stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are as follows: Weighted Avg. Shares Exercise Price Balance December 31, 2015 1,471,000 $ 6.49 Granted - $ - Cancelled (7,000 ) $ 10.38 Balance March 31, 2016 1,464,000 $ 6.49 The expected volatility assumptions have been based on the historical and expected volatility of our stock, measured over a period generally commensurate with the expected term. The weighted average expected option term for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, reflects the application of the simplified method prescribed in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107 (as amended by SAB 110), which defines the life as the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted average vesting period for all option tranches. As of March 31, 2016, there was $841,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.51 years. Stock Options and Warrants – Non-employees We account for the issuance of options and warrants for services from non-employees by estimating the fair value of warrants issued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. This model’s calculations include the option or warrant exercise price, the market price of shares on grant date, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, the expected life of the option or warrant, and the expected volatility of our stock and the expected dividends. For options and warrants issued as compensation to non-employees for services that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the time of issuance, the estimated value is recorded in equity and expensed when the services are performed and benefit is received. For unvested shares, the change in fair value during the period is recognized in expense using the graded vesting method. There were no options issued to non-employees for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Share-based compensation expense relating to stock options and warrants recognized for non-employees was $0 and $2,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. There was no stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Common Stock There were 0 and 76,000 shares of common stock issued in exchange for investor relations services during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Generally, the costs associated with shares issued for services are being amortized to the related expense on a straight-line basis over the related service periods. Income Taxes We have recorded a full valuation allowance against our otherwise recognizable deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2016. As such, we have not recorded a provision for income tax for the period ended March 31, 2016. We utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In determining the need for valuation allowances, we consider projected future taxable income and the availability of tax planning strategies. After evaluating all positive and negative historical and perspective evidences, management has determined it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. For those tax positions where there is greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, we have recorded the largest amount of tax benefit that may potentially be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit has been recognized in the financial statements. Based on management's assessment of the facts, circumstances and information available, management has determined that all of the tax benefits for the period ended March 31, 2016 should be realized. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level I) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level III). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level Input: Input Definition: Level I Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date. Level II Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level I, that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. Level III Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at March 31, 2016 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value: Balance at March 31, 2016 (Amounts in thousands) Level I Level II Level III Total Certificates of deposit 106 - - 106 Total assets 106 - - 106 Warrant liabilities - - 953 953 Derivative Liability 3,685 3,685 Total liabilities - - 4,638 4,638 Financial instruments classified as Level III in the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2016, represent our liabilities measured at market value on a recurring basis which include warrant liabilities and derivative liabilities resulting from recent debt and equity financings. In accordance with current accounting rules, the warrant liabilities and derivative liabilities are being marked-to-market each quarter-end until they are completely settled. The warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, using both observable and unobservable inputs and assumptions consistent with those used in our estimate of fair value of employee stock options. See Warrant Liabilities The following table summarizes our fair value measurements using significant Level III inputs, and changes therein, for the three months ended March 31, 2016: Level III Level III Warrant Warrant (Dollars in thousands) Liabilities (Dollars in thousands) Liabilities Balance as of December 31, 2015 $ 509 Balance as of December 31, 2015 $ 2,348 Issuance of warrants 216 Issuance of warrants - Change in fair value 228 Change in fair value 1,337 Balance as of March 31, 2016 $ 953 Balance as of March 31, 2016 $ 3,685 Intangible Assets Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions and improvements to property and equipment are capitalized at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from two to seven years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the related lease term, which is typically five to seven years. Warrant Liabilities In March 2016, we entered into a promissory note with Acuitas, pursuant to which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $900,000 for the sale of $900,000 in principal amount (the "March 2016 Promissory Note"). The March 2016 Promissory Note is due within 30 business days of demand by Acuitas (the "Maturity Date"), and carries an interest rate on any unpaid principal amount of 8% per annum until the Maturity Date, after which the interest will increase to 12% per annum. In addition, Acuitas was granted five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate 450,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $0.47 per share, which warrants include, subject to certain exceptions, a full-ratchet anti-dilution protection (the “March 2016 Warrants”). The warrant liability associated with the March 2016 Warrants were calculated using the Black-Scholes model based upon the following assumptions: March 31, 201 6 Expected volatility 133.19 % Risk-free interest rate 1.21 % Weighted average expected lives in years 5 Expected dividend 0 % We have issued warrants to purchase common stock in December 2011, February 2012, April 2015, July 2015, and March 2016. The warrants are being accounted for as liabilities in accordance with FASB accounting rules, due to anti-dilution provisions in some warrants that protect the holders from declines in our stock price and a requirement to deliver registered shares upon exercise of the warrants, which is considered outside our control. The warrants are marked-to-market each reporting period, using the Black-Scholes pricing model, until they are completely settled or expire. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recognized a loss of $228,000 and a gain of $2.5 million, respectively, related to the revaluation of our warrant liabilities. Derivative Liability In July 2015, we entered into the July 2015 Convertible Debenture. The derivative liability associated with the July 2015 Convertible Debenture was calculated using the Black-Scholes model based upon the following assumptions: March 31, 201 6 Expected volatility 133.19 % Risk-free interest rate 0.59 % Weighted average expected lives in years 0.80 Expected dividend 0 % The expected volatility assumption for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was based on the historical volatility of our stock, measured over a period generally commensurate with the expected term. The weighted average expected lives in years for 2015 reflect the application of the simplified method set out in Security and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 107 (and as amended by SAB 110), which defines the life as the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted average vesting period for all option tranches. We use historical data to estimate the rate of forfeitures assumption for awards granted to employees. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recognized a loss of $1.3 million and $0 related to the revaluation of our derivative liability, respectively. Recently Issued or Newly Adopted Accounting Standards In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis In August 2014, the FASB issued FASB ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, . changes to the disclosure of uncertainties about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Under U.S. GAAP, continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity’s liquidation becomes imminent. Even if an entity’s liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Because there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related note disclosures, there is diversity in practice whether, when, and how an entity discloses the relevant conditions and events in its financial statements. As a result, these changes require an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt is defined as an indication that it is probable that an entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that financial statements are issued. If management has concluded that substantial doubt exists, then the following disclosures should be made in the financial statements: (i) principal conditions or events that raised the substantial doubt, (ii) management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations, (iii) management’s plans that alleviated the initial substantial doubt or, if substantial doubt was not alleviated, management’s plans that are intended to at least mitigate the conditions or events that raise substantial doubt, and (iv) if the latter in (iii) is disclosed, an explicit statement that there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2013-15 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. |
