BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS | ||||||||||||||||||
Interim Financial Statements | |||||||||||||||||||
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of CareView Communications, Inc. (“CareView”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the financial information included herein in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2015. | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||||||
Our financial instruments consist primarily of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short- and long-term debt. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates our fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. We have elected not to carry our debt instruments at fair value. The carrying amount of our debt approximates fair value. Interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of short- and long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of the our short- and long-term debt and would be considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||||
We have categorized our assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy in accordance with GAAP. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). | |||||||||||||||||||
Assets and liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include the fair value of warrant liability as detailed below. The fair value of this warrant liability is included in long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
The following table provides the financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis: | |||||||||||||||||||

The above table of Level 3 liabilities begins with the prior period balance and adjusts the balance for changes that occurred during the current period. The ending balance of the Level 3 securities presented above represent our best estimates and may not be substantiated by comparisons to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. | |||||||||||||||||||
Earnings Per Share | |||||||||||||||||||
We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with GAAP, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period under the treasury stock method. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options, warrants and convertible debt. Potential common shares totaling 104,333,559 and 92,844,471 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to our reported net loss. | |||||||||||||||||||
Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | |||||||||||||||||||
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of the related liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts and further requires the amortization of debt issuance cost to be reported as interest expense. Similarly, debt issuance costs and any discount or premium are considered in the aggregate when determining the effective interest rate of the debt. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. Management has opted for early adoption of ASU 2015-03 and there was no material effect on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. | |||||||||||||||||||
There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as summarized in NOTE 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||

LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT'S PLAN | NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN |
Our cash position at March 31, 2015 was approximately $7,400,000. | |
Pursuant to the terms of a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated April 21, 2011 (as subsequently amended) with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP (“HealthCor”) we are required to maintain a minimum cash balance $2,000,000 (See NOTE 11 for further details), and we are in compliance with the minimum cash balance as of the date of this filing. | |
Our continued successful operation is dependent upon us achieving positive cash flow through operations while maintaining adequate liquidity. We expect that the cash on hand, as well as our existing and projected cash flow from billable contracts, will enable us to continue to operate for the next twelve month period. We believe that our sales and marketing plan to attract new business and our ongoing deployment and installation of units under existing hospital agreements, will meet our near-term cash needs and will help us achieve future operating profitability. | |
At present, we have sufficient inventory to install and service a select number of large customers, but eventually we will need to address additional capital requirements. We are currently in discussions with several entities in an effort to secure a credit facility which will support our projected growth. We expect to close on a credit facility within the next 120 days; however, there are no assurances that we can close on a credit facility on terms acceptable to us or that such closing will occur. |

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company | |||||||||||||||||
We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) to determine the fair value of warrants to purchase our Common Stock (the “Warrant(s)”) (except certain Warrants issued to HealthCor and Warrants issued pursuant to the terms our March 2013 private placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”). The Black-Scholes Model is an acceptable model in accordance with GAAP. The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, risk-free interest rate, and the estimated term of the Warrant. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of our stock prices (and that of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available). Our calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. Where appropriate we used the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of our stock price during 2007-2009. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the Warrant and is calculated by using the average daily historical stock prices through the day preceding the grant date. | |||||||||||||||||
The fair value of the above mentioned Warrants issued to HealthCor and the Private Placement Warrants was computed using the Binomial Lattice model, incorporating transaction details such as the price of our Common Stock, contractual terms, maturity and risk free rates, as well as assumptions about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior. Due to the down round provisions associated with the exercise price of these Warrants, we determined that the Binomial Lattice model was the most appropriate model for valuing these instruments. | |||||||||||||||||
Warrant Activity during the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 | |||||||||||||||||
On February 17, 2015, we entered into a Fifth Amendment to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with HealthCor and certain other investors and agreed to sell and issue (i) additional notes in the initial aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000, with a conversion price per share equal to $0.52 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions) and (ii) additional Warrants for an aggregate of up to 3,692,307 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.52 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions) (the “Fifth Amendment Warrants”). The fair value of the convertible debt and the Fifth Amendment Warrants was determined to be $7,336,615, resulting in a relative fair value of $1,093,105 for the Fifth Amendment Warrants on the date of grant. (See NOTE 11 for further details) | |||||||||||||||||
On March 31, 2015, we issued HealthCor a Warrant for up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our Common Stock in consideration for certain prior waivers of the minimum cash balance requirement in the Purchase Agreement. This Warrant has an exercise price of $0.53 per share and an expiration date of March 31, 2025. (See NOTE 11 for further details). | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2014, we recorded a warrant liability of $301,864 in our consolidated financial statements. At March 31, 2015, the Private Placement Warrants were re-valued with a fair value determination of $539,965, resulting in a difference of $238,101, which was included as change in fair value of warrant liability in other income and expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,882,626 shares of our Common Stock expired. | |||||||||||||||||
Warrant Activity during the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 | |||||||||||||||||
On January 16, 2014, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with HealthCor and agreed to sell and issue (i) additional notes in the initial aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000, with a conversion price per share equal to $0.40 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions) and (ii) additional Warrants for an aggregate of up to 4,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.40 (subject to adjustment for standard anti-dilution provisions) (the “Fourth Amendment Warrants”). The fair value of the convertible debt and the Fourth Amendment Warrants was determined to be $6,488,000, resulting in a relative fair value of $1,146,732 for the Fourth Amendment Warrants on the date of grant. | |||||||||||||||||
As of December 31, 2013, we recorded a warrant liability of $370,865 in our condensed consolidated financial statements. At March 31, 2014, the Private Placement Warrants were re-valued with a fair value determination of $1,004,007 and the difference of $633,142 was included as change in fair value of warrant liability in other income and expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
For the three ended March 31, 2014, we amortized $142,347 of previously capitalized Warrant costs as interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||
Options to Purchase Common Stock of the Company | |||||||||||||||||
On February 25, 2015, we established the CareView Communications, Inc. 2015 Stock Option Plan (the “2015 Plan”) pursuant to which 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock was reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options (“2015 Plan Option(s)”). The 2015 Plan was designed to serve as an incentive for retaining our qualified and competent key employees, officers and directors. The 2015 Plan Options vest over three years and have an exercise period of ten years from the date of issuance. | |||||||||||||||||
During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we granted options to purchase 1,815,000 shares of our Common Stock (the ‘‘Option(s)’’) to certain employees and members of our board of directors. We granted 650,000 Options to certain employees and members of our board of directors during the three months ended March 31, 2014. During those same three month periods, 41,002 and 15,001 Options, respectively, were canceled and 6,231,310 and 31,666 Options, respectively, expired. | |||||||||||||||||

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the expected term of the Option and is calculated by using the average daily historical stock prices through the day preceding the grant date. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award.

We have not included an adjustment to our stock based compensation expense based on the nominal amount of the historical forfeiture rate. We do, however, revise our stock based compensation expense based on actual forfeitures during each reporting period. | |||||||||||||||||
At March 31, 2015, total unrecognized estimated compensation expense related to non-vested Options granted prior to that date was approximately $1,700,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.1 years. No tax benefit was realized due to a continued pattern of operating losses. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES |
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We do not expect to pay any significant federal or state income tax for 2015 as a result of the losses recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and the additional losses expected for the remainder of 2015 and net operating loss carry forwards from prior years. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is “more likely than not” that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of March 31, 2015, we maintained a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. Based on these requirements, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded. There were no recorded unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the reporting period. |

Joint Venture Agreement | |
JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT | NOTE 9 – JOINT VENTURE AGREEMENT |
On November 16, 2009, we entered into a Master Investment Agreement (the “Rockwell Agreement”) with Rockwell Holdings I, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability (“Rockwell”). Under the terms of the Rockwell Agreement, we used funds from Rockwell to fully implement the CareView System™ in Hillcrest Medical Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma (“Hillcrest”) and Saline Memorial Hospital in Benton, Arkansas (“Saline”) (the “Project Hospital(s)”). CareView-Hillcrest, LLC and CareView-Saline, LLC were created as the operating entities for the Project Hospitals under the Rockwell Agreement (the “Project LLC(s) “). | |
Rockwell and the Company own 50% of each Project LLC. We contributed our intellectual property rights and hospital contract with each Project Hospital and Rockwell contributed cash to be used for the purchase of equipment for the Project LLCs. Rockwell provided $1,151,205 as the initial funding, $575,603 was provided under promissory notes (the “Project Notes”) and $575,602 was provided under an investment interest (“Rockwell’s Preferential Return”). We classified Rockwell’s Preferential Return as a liability since it represents an unconditional obligation by us and is recorded in mandatorily redeemable equity in joint venture on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns both earn interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) and are secured by a security interest in all of the equipment in the Project Hospitals, intellectual property rights, and the Project Hospital Contract | |
In accordance with GAAP, we determined the Project LLCs are VIEs based on the fact that the total equity investment at risk was not sufficient to finance the entities activities without additional financial support. We consolidate the Project LLCs as we have the power to direct the activities and an obligation to absorb losses of the VIEs. We have no contractual liability to Rockwell with respect to the repayment obligations of the Project LLCs. | |
As additional consideration to Rockwell for providing the funding, we granted Rockwell Warrants to purchase 1,151,206 shares of our Common Stock on the date of the Rockwell Agreement, and using the Black-Scholes Model valued the Warrants at $1,124,728 (the “Project Warrant”). The Project Warrant is classified as equity and is included in additional paid-in-capital on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We allocated the proceeds to the Project Warrant, the Project Notes and Preferential Returns based on the relative fair value. The originally recorded debt discount of $636,752 was amortized over the expected life of the debt and was fully amortized as of March 31, 2013. | |
Hillcrest notified us of its desire to terminate its hospital agreement effective January 27, 2012. This termination resulted in the loss of monthly revenue totaling approximately $20,000, which revenue was used to make payments on our indebtedness to Rockwell. To date, we have incurred system removal costs of approximately $3,000 for removing our equipment from the hospital premises. We currently have approximately 100 units remaining on site at Hillcrest. Included in other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements is an allowance for system removal totaling $10,250 to reserve for the removal of the remaining units. | |
As of March 31, 2015, the Project LLCs’ indebtedness to Rockwell, including principal and interest totaled approximately $1,100,000. On March 18, 2014, the Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns, previously due on June 30, 2014 (the “June 2014 extensions”), were extended to June 30, 2015. On February 19, 2015, the Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns due dates were extended to June 30, 2016. In conjunction with an August 2013 extension of the due dates of the Project Notes and Rockwell’s Preferential Returns to December 31, 2013, the expiration date of the Project Warrant was also extended from November 16, 2014 to November 16, 2015. All other provisions of the Project Warrant remained unchanged. The Project Warrant were amended and revalued in August 2013 resulting in a $25,327 increase in fair value, which has been recorded as non-cash costs included in general and administration expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. CareView, as 50% owner of the LLCs, is currently negotiating with Rockwell to settle the debt of the LLCs through the issuance of shares of CareView’s Common Stock. Although CareView anticipates that this settlement will be forthcoming in the near future, CareView and the LLCs can give no assurances that a settlement will be negotiated, or if negotiated and settled, that it will be through the issuance of CareView’s Common Stock. |

Agreement With Healthcor | |
AGREEMENT WITH HEALTHCOR | NOTE 11 – AGREEMENT WITH HEALTHCOR |
On April 21, 2011, we entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (as subsequently amended) (the “HealthCor Purchase Agreement”) with HealthCor. Pursuant to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement, we sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amount of $9,316,000 and $10,684,000, respectively (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Notes”). The 2011 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of April 20, 2021. We also issued Warrants to HealthCor for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 5,488,456 and 6,294,403 shares, respectively, of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share (collectively the “2011 HealthCor Warrants”). | |
So long as no event of default has occurred, the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes accrue interest from April 21, 2011 through April 20, 2016 (the “First Five Year Note Period”) at the rate of 12.5% per annum, compounding quarterly and shall be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar quarter. Interest accruing from April 21, 2016 through April 20, 2021 (the “Second Five Year Note Period”) at a rate of 10% per annum, compounding quarterly, may be paid quarterly in arrears in cash or, at our option, such interest may be added to the outstanding principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes on the last day of each calendar. | |
From the date any event of default occurs, the interest rate, then applicable, shall be increased by five percent (5%) per annum. HealthCor has the right, upon an event of default, to declare due and payable any unpaid principal amount of the 2011 HealthCor Notes then outstanding, plus previously accrued but unpaid interest and charges, together with the interest then scheduled to accrue (calculated at the default rate described in the immediately preceding sentence) through the end of the First Five Year Note Period or the Second Five Year Note Period, as applicable. | |
At any time after April 21, 2011, HealthCor is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2011 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $1.25 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2011 HealthCor Notes. As of March 31, 2015, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2011 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 26,000,000. | |
On January 31, 2012, we entered into the Second Amendment to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (the “Second Amendment”) amending the HealthCor Purchase Agreement, and sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amounts of $2,329,000 and $2,671,000, respectively (collectively the “2012 HealthCor Notes”). As provided by the Second Amendment, the 2012 HealthCor Notes are in substantially the same form as the 2011 HealthCor Notes, with changes to the “Issuance Date,” “Maturity Date,” “First Five Year Note Period” and other terms to take into account the timing of the issuance of the 2012 HealthCor Notes. The 2012 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of January 30, 2022. In addition, the provisions regarding interest payments, interest acceleration, optional conversion, negative covenants, and events of default, preemptive rights and registration rights are the same as those of the 2011 HealthCor Notes. At any time after January 30, 2012, HealthCor is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2012 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $1.25 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2012 HealthCor Notes. As of March 31, 2015, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2012 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 5,900,000. | |
On August 20, 2013, we entered into a Third Amendment to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (the “Third Amendment”) to redefine our minimum cash balance requirements. Previously we were required to maintain a minimum cash balance of $5,000,000 and should we drop below that balance, it triggered a default. The Third Amendment allowed for a reduced minimum cash period, as defined in the HealthCor Purchase Agreement, which allowed us to drop below $5,000,000, but not below $4,000,000. All other terms and conditions of the HealthCor Purchase Agreement, including all amendments thereto, remain the same. Upon entering the reduced minimum cash period (which occurred on October 7, 2013), we had 120 days to return our minimum cash balance to the original $5,000,000. On January 16, 2014, we increased our cash balance to in excess of the original $5,000,000 minimum allowable balance. | |
On January 16, 2014, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement with HealthCor (the “Fourth Amendment”) and sold Senior Secured Convertible Notes to HealthCor in the principal amounts of $2,329,000 and $2,671,000 (collectively the ‘‘2014 HealthCor Notes’’). As provided by the Fourth Amendment, the 2014 HealthCor Notes are in substantially the same form as the 2011 HealthCor Notes, with changes to the “Issuance Date,” “Maturity Date,” “First Five Year Note Period” and other terms to take into account the timing of the issuance of the 2014 HealthCor Notes. The 2014 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of January 15, 2024. In addition, the provisions regarding interest payments, interest acceleration, optional conversion, negative covenants, and events of default, preemptive rights and registration rights are the same as those of the 2011 HealthCor Notes. At any time after January 16, 2014, HealthCor is entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid accrued interest on and principal balances of the 2014 HealthCor Notes into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $0.40 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with anti-dilution provisions set forth in the 2014 HealthCor Notes. Additionally we issued Warrants to HealthCor for the purchase of an aggregate of up to 4,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share (collectively the “2014 HealthCor Warrants”). As of March 31, 2015, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the 2014 HealthCor Notes totaled approximately 14,500,000. | |
On December 4, 2014, we entered into a Fifth Amendment to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment”) with HealthCor and certain additional investors (such additional investors, the “New Investors” and, collectively with HealthCor Partners Fund, LP, the “Investors”) and agreed to sell and issue (i) additional notes in the initial aggregate principal amount of $6,000,000,with a conversion price per share of $0.52 (subject to adjustment as described therein) (the “Fifth Amendment Notes”) and (ii) additional Warrants for an aggregate of up to 3,692,308 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share of $0.52 (subject to adjustment as described therein) (the “Fifth Amendment Warrants”). As provided by the Fifth Amendment, the Fifth Amendment Notes are in substantially the same form as the 2011 HealthCor Notes, with changes to the “Issuance Date,” “Maturity Date,” “First Five Year Note Period” and other terms to take into account the timing of the issuance of the Fifth Amendment Notes. The 2014 HealthCor Notes have a maturity date of February 16, 2025. In addition, the provisions regarding interest payments, interest acceleration, optional conversion, negative covenants, and events of default, preemptive rights and registration rights are the same as those of the 2011 HealthCor Notes. The New Investors are composed of all but one of our current directors and one of our officers. On February 17, 2015, the Company and the Investors closed on the transactions contemplated by the Fifth Amendment. In connection with this closing, the Company and the Investors entered into an Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Amended Security Agreement”), amending and restating that certain Pledge and Security Agreement dated as of April 20, 2011, and an Amended and Restated Intellectual Property Security Agreement (the “Amended IP Security Agreement”), amending and restating that certain Intellectual Property Security Agreement dated as of April 20, 2011. As of March 31, 2015, the underlying shares of our Common Stock related to the Fifth Amendment Notes totaled approximately 2,000,000 to HealthCor and 9,700,000 to the New Investors. | |
On March 31, 2015, we entered into the Sixth Amendment to HealthCor Purchase Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”) pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the requirement to maintain a minimum cash balance of $5,000,000 was reduced to a minimum cash balance of $2,000,000 and (ii) the amendment provision was revised to permit the HealthCor Purchase Agreement to be amended by the Company and the holders of the majority of the Common Stock underlying the outstanding notes and warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock sold pursuant to the HealthCor Purchase Agreement. On March 31, 2015, we also issued a warrant to HealthCor to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of our Common Stock in consideration for certain prior waivers of the minimum cash balance requirement in the HealthCor Purchase Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment Warrant”). The Sixth Amendment Warrant has an exercise price per share of $0.53 (subject to adjustment as described therein) and an expiration date of March 31, 2025. | |
Accounting Treatment | |
When issuing debt or equity securities convertible into common stock at a discount to the fair value of the common stock at the date the debt or equity financing is committed, a company is required to record a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) charge. We had three separate issuances of equity securities convertible into common stock that qualify under this accounting treatment, (i) the 2011 HealthCor Notes, (ii) the 2012 HealthCor Notes and (iii) the 2014 HealthCor Notes. Because the conversion option and the 2011 HealthCor Warrants on the 2011 HealthCor Notes were originally classified as a liability when issued and, subsequently reclassified to equity on December 31, 2011 when the 2011 HealthCor Notes were amended, only the accrued interest capitalized as payment in kind (‘‘PIK’’) since reclassification qualifies under this accounting treatment. The face amount of the 2012 and 2014 HealthCor Notes and all accrued PIK interest also qualify for this accounting treatment. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded a BCF of $456,987 and $400,695, respectively. The BCF was recorded as a charge to debt discount and a credit to additional paid in capital, with the debt discount, using the effective interest method, amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. As Warrants were issued with the 2014 HealthCor Notes and the Fifth Amendment Notes, the proceeds were allocated to the instruments based on relative fair value. The value allocated to the 2014 HealthCor Warrants and the Fifth Amendment Notes were $1,146,732 and $1,093,105, respectively, which were recorded as a debt discount with the credit to additional paid in capital. The discount associated with the 2014 HealthCor Warrants and the Fifth Amendment Notes is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. | |
We recorded an aggregate of $552,066 and $528,418 in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to this discount. The carrying value of the debt with HealthCor at March 31, 2015 approximates fair value as the interest rates used are those currently available to us and would be considered level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. |

On April 1, 2015, we entered into a Master Product and Services Agreement (the “Master Agreement”) with Community Health Systems (“CHS”). The terms of the Master Agreement provide for the execution of a facilities level agreement with each hospital that wants to participate. Upon signing of the Master Agreement, we commenced billing 750 units that had been previously installed, but not billable, for a total of 1,800 billable units. The 1,800 units were installed under a previous agreement with Health Management Associates (“HMA”), acquired by CHS in January 2014. We have also commenced the roll-out of the CareView System to additional CHS facilities. We estimate that total billable units will be in excess of 2,500 by the end of 2015 with the potential for an additional approximately 3,500 units in 2016. CHS has an estimated 31,000 licensed beds in its system. |

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of CareView Communications, Inc.

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the financial information included herein in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2015. | |||||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ||||||||||||||||||
Our financial instruments consist primarily of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short- and long-term debt. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates our fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. We have elected not to carry our debt instruments at fair value. The carrying amount of our debt approximates fair value. Interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of short- and long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of the our short- and long-term debt and would be considered Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. | |||||||||||||||||||
We have categorized our assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy in accordance with GAAP. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). | |||||||||||||||||||
Assets and liabilities recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | |||||||||||||||||||
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. | |||||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include the fair value of warrant liability as detailed below. The fair value of this warrant liability is included in long-term liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
The following table provides the financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value and measured on a recurring basis: | |||||||||||||||||||

The above table of Level 3 liabilities begins with the prior period balance and adjusts the balance for changes that occurred during the current period. The ending balance of the Level 3 securities presented above represent our best estimates and may not be substantiated by comparisons to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments. | |||||||||||||||||||
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share | ||||||||||||||||||
We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with GAAP, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period under the treasury stock method. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options, warrants and convertible debt. Potential common shares totaling 104,333,559 and 92,844,471 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to our reported net loss. | |||||||||||||||||||
Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | ||||||||||||||||||
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of the related liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts and further requires the amortization of debt issuance cost to be reported as interest expense. Similarly, debt issuance costs and any discount or premium are considered in the aggregate when determining the effective interest rate of the debt. ASU 2015-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. Management has opted for early adoption of ASU 2015-03 and there was no material effect on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. | |||||||||||||||||||
There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies as summarized in NOTE 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. | |||||||||||||||||||
