Nobilis Health Corp. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 – COMPANY DESCRIPTION
Nobilis Health Corp. and Subsidiaries (“Nobilis” or the “Company”) was incorporated on March 16, 2007 under the name "Northstar Healthcare Inc." pursuant to the provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. On December 5, 2014, Northstar Healthcare Inc. changed its name to Nobilis Health Corp. The Company owns and manages health care facilities in the States of Texas and Arizona, consisting primarily of specialty surgical hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and multi-specialty clinics. The Company's service offerings within the health care industry include providing contracted marketing services and trade accounts receivable factoring.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The Company consolidates entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which it holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights and variable interest entities, with respect to which the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. In the opinion of management, material adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation have been included. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have not been audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, except the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017, which is derived from previously audited consolidated financial statements.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Therefore, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (“2017 Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on March 12, 2018. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies or estimates from those disclosed in the 2017 Annual Report.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to current period financial statement classifications. The reclassifications included in these comparative interim consolidated financial statements represent a change in presentation within the consolidated statement of cash flows for the prior period presented and within Note 7 - Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities to separately state deferred lease liabilities. The reclassifications were deemed to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements both individually and in the aggregate.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This update expands the scope of Topic 718 Compensation - Stock Compensation to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted upon issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact of adopting ASU 2018-07.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) which supersedes FASB ASC Topic 840, Leases (Topic 840) and provides principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. The standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted upon issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on its results of operations, cash flows and financial position. The Company also continues to monitor proposals issued by the FASB to clarify the ASU and certain industry implementation issues.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Revenue Recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606, "new revenue standard") and a series of related ASU's designed to create improved revenue recognition and disclosures to all contracts that were not completed, using the modified retrospective method.
Under the modified retrospective method, the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard is recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings on the date of initial application; prior periods are not restated. The Company did not identify any changes to the recognition of revenue under ASC 606 as compared to legacy U.S. GAAP. However adoption of the new standard also resulted in changes with regard to the presentation of revenues and the provision for uncollectible accounts. Upon adoption, any estimation of uncollectable amounts that were previously considered allowance for doubtful accounts are generally considered implicit price concessions that are a direct reduction to net operating revenues, with a corresponding reduction in the amounts presented separately as bad debt expense.
Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new revenue standard provides a principles-based, five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers. The five steps are to identify the contract(s) with the customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company’s sources of revenues within the scope of ASC 606 include patient and net professional fees and related ancillary services, management fees, and contracted marketing revenues. These revenues are further discussed within Note 6 - Revenues and Related Trade Accounts Receivable, net.
The Company also recognizes revenues from factoring. Factoring revenues are generated from certain trade accounts receivables purchased from third parties (typically, practicing physicians) in the ordinary course of business, and are accounted for under ASC 860 Transfers and Servicing. Purchase price is determined either by a flat fee per medical procedure (reflecting a discount to the face amount of the receivable), as dictated per the agreement, or as a percentage of final collections. At the time of purchase, Nobilis acquires the right to collect the full amount of the receivable and assumes all associated financial risk. Costs related to billings and collections are borne by the Company, without any recourse to the third-party seller and reflected as a component of operating expenses. Factoring revenues represent the excess of collections of purchased receivables over their acquisition cost and are recognized over the period from purchase to collection.
Other Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10) – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This update was issued to clarify certain narrow aspects of guidance concerning the recognition of financial assets and liabilities established in ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This includes an amendment to clarify that an entity measuring an equity security using the measurement alternative may change its measurement approach to a fair valuation method in accordance with Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, through an irrevocable election that would apply to that security and all identical or similar investments of the same issued. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2018. The Company adopted this pronouncement in the first quarter of 2018 and had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
The Company accounts for all transactions that represent business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, where the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entity are recognized and measured at their fair values on the date the Company obtains control in the acquiree. Such fair values that are not finalized for reporting periods following the acquisition date are estimated and recorded as provisional amounts. Adjustments to these provisional amounts during the measurement period (defined as the date through which all information required to identify and measure the consideration transferred, the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interests has been obtained, limited to one year from the acquisition date) are recorded as of the date of acquisition. Any material impact to comparative information for periods after acquisition, but before the period in which adjustments are identified, is recognized during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined.

2017 Transactions:
Elite Management Companies ("Elite")
On November 15, 2017, pursuant to four separate Membership Interest Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”), Northstar Healthcare Surgery Center - Houston, LLC ("NHSC") and Nobilis Health Corp. (the "Company"), (NHSC and the Company are each a "Buyer" and collectively "Buyers") and Elite Surgical Affiliates (ESA) and other membership interests, (Elite and other membership interests are each a "Seller" and collectively "Sellers") finalized the Purchase Agreements dated as of November 15, 2017 ("Elite Transaction"). The Company purchased ownership interests in Elite Sinus Spine and Ortho LLC, Elite Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery, LLC, Houston Metro Ortho and Spine Surgery Center LLC and Elite Hospital Management LLC (collectively the "Management Companies", “Elite” or "Elite Management Companies").
The Company purchased Elite for approximately $64.7 million, comprised of $53.6 million in cash, $4.4 million as contractual obligation to purchase additional equity interests, $3.5 million in the form of a convertible promissory note, $2.5 million in form of escrow and $0.7 million in shares of common stock and stock options in order to acquire 53.8% of the Sellers’ ownership interests in Management Companies responsible for three ambulatory surgery centers and one surgical hospital in the greater Houston area. Under U.S. GAAP our equity position effectively increased 3.7% from 50.1% to 53.8% due to an obligation to purchase ESA's 15.1 remaining equity units within the first year after the acquisition date for a fixed price of $4.4 million. As a result, noncontrolling interest is 46.2%. The noncontrolling interest was measured using Finnerty's (2012) Average-Strike Put Option Model (the "Finnerty Model") at its acquisition-date fair value and incorporates the discount for lack of marketability. The Finnerty Model assumes that the put option is struck at the average price of the stock over the period from valuation date to expiration date.
The $2.5 million in escrow was held back and is subject to certain indemnification provisions. On the twelve-month anniversary of closing, 100% of the amount held back, less any amounts paid as, or claimed as, indemnification, will be paid to the Sellers.
As a result of the acquisition, the Company has recognized $46.1 million of goodwill within our Medical Segment, of which, $27.4 million is expected to be deducted for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the business opportunities to be gained through the expanded case volume as well as the access to additional physicians.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, Elite had $6.6 million in net revenues and net income attributable to the Company of $1.1 million which is included in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, Elite had $13.0 million in net revenues and net income attributable to the Company of $2.5 million which is included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The costs related to the transaction were $0.3 million and were expensed during the fourth quarter in 2017. These costs are included in the corporate general and administrative expenses in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017.
The fair values assigned to certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to the Company's acquisition have been prepared on a preliminary basis with information currently available and are subject to change. Specifically, the Company is still in the process of assessing the fair value of trade accounts receivable, property and equipment, intangibles, goodwill, leases and working capital adjustment. The Company expects to finalize the analysis during 2018. For the Elite intangible assets, the Company used the multi-period excess earnings method to estimate the fair value of the hospital department management agreements, the with-and-without method to estimate the fair value of a non-compete agreement, and the relief-from-royalty method to estimate the fair value of the trade name. These are included within the intangible assets balance in the table below. To evaluate the contract value of the acquired trade accounts receivable, the Company compared historical trended accrued revenue and collections to determine the appropriate amount to record at time of acquisition.
The following table summarizes the preliminary fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition (in thousands):

DeRosa Medical, P.C. ("DeRosa")
On September 13, 2017, the Company purchased DeRosa in exchange for $0.9 million in cash. DeRosa adds three additional primary care clinics to Nobilis' health network. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has recognized $0.7 million of goodwill within our Medical Segment, of which, 100% is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the business opportunities to be gained through the expanded geographical coverage as well as the access to a new physician group.

The pro forma information is based on the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information has been provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by combining the companies for the periods presented, or of the results that may be achieved by the combined companies in the future. Further, results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the following unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information because of future events and transactions, as well as other factors.
The unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information presented below has been prepared by adjusting the historical results of the Company to include historical results of the acquired businesses described above and was then adjusted: (i) to increase amortization expense resulting from intangible assets acquired; (ii) to reduce interest expense from debt which was retained by the seller upon acquisition of the respective businesses and concurrently increase the Company's interest expense based upon the purchase price; and (iii) to increase depreciation expense for the incremental increase in the value of property and equipment acquired; (iv) to decrease expenses for management services which were provided by the preceding parent entity and to concurrently
10
increase expenses for management services which are now provided by the Company; (v) to adjust earnings per share to reflect the common shares issued as part of the purchase consideration. The unaudited supplemental pro forma financial information does not include adjustments to reflect the impact of other cost savings or synergies that may result from these acquisition.
The following table shows our pro forma results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENTS IN ASSOCIATES
In March 2016, the Company acquired a 58% interest in Athelite Holdings LLC ("Athelite"), a holding company with a 70% interest in Dallas Metro Surgery Center LLC ("Dallas Metro"), a company formed to provide management services to a Hospital Outpatient Department (HOPD). In April 2016, Athelite interest in Dallas Metro was reduced to 62%. The Athelite investment is accounted for as an equity method investment as the Company did not obtain the necessary level of control for the investment to be accounted for as a business combination. This is due to the fact that the Company does not have the ability to directly appoint a majority of the board members of Dallas Metro or independently make strategic operational decisions. The carrying value as of June 30, 2018 was $0.4 million. The investment is classified as other long-term assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
NOTE 5 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATION
The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect to these risks is presented throughout these consolidated financial statements.
Principal financial instruments
The principal financial instruments used by the Company, from which financial instrument risk arises, are as follows:
•Trade accounts receivable and other receivables
•Investments in associates
•Accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities
•Other liabilities and notes payable
•Capital leases
•Lines of credit
•Debt
•Warrants
•Non-employee stock options
The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash, trade accounts receivable and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, other current liabilities and other liabilities as reflected in the consolidated financial statements approximate fair value due to their short term maturity. The estimated fair value of the Company's other long-term debt instruments approximate their carrying amounts as the interest rates approximate the Company's current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable maturity, or have variable interest rates.
Financial instruments - risk management
The Company’s financial instrument risks include, but are not limited to the following:
•Credit risk
•Market risk
•Liquidity risk
•Interest rate risk
11
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a patient, non-partner surgeon or insurance company fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company, in the normal course of business, is exposed mainly to credit risk on its trade accounts receivable from insurance companies, other third-party payors, and physicians. Trade accounts receivables are net of applicable bad debt reserves, which are established based on specific credit risk associated with insurance companies, payors and other relevant information.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due and arises from the Company’s management of working capital. The Company’s objective to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due. To achieve this objective, it seeks to maintain cash balances (or agreed credit facilities) to meet expected requirements. The liquidity risk of the Company and its subsidiaries is managed centrally by the Company’s finance function. The Company believes that there are currently no concerns of its ability to meet its liabilities as they become due for the foreseeable future.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates and/or foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest rate risk
The Company entered into a revolving line of credit that, from time to time, may increase interest rates based on market index.

NOTE 6 - REVENUES AND RELATED TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Net Patient and Professional Fees
Net patient and professional fees - Net patient and professional fees include facility fees, ancillary services fees, and management fees for services rendered at the healthcare facilities we operate or manage and consist primarily of fees for the use of those facilities. Facility fees and ancillary services fees are recognized at the date the related medical procedure is performed, which is the point in time the promised services are provided. Given the nature of our business, we have no material post-care performance obligations after the date of the medical procedure. Ancillary services are performed during an episode of care and include neuromonitoring, anesthesia, and professional staffing. Facility fees as well as related ancillary services fees are recognized at the amounts expected to be collected, net of any patient discounts, contractual and other adjustments of third-party payors and any implicit price concessions. Our revenues exclude any amounts billed for physicians’ services, which are billed separately by the physicians to the patient or third-party payor.
Management fees are earned from long-term management agreements entered into with third-party healthcare facilities. The Company’s performance obligation in these arrangements is to manage the day-to-day operations of these facilities for which the Company earns monthly management fees based on a percentage of collections of the facilities, less certain expenses incurred by the facilities during the period. The Company acts as an agent of the contracting healthcare provider in these scenarios and recognizes revenue over the management period as the management services are performed.
The Company estimates patient and net professional fees using the expected value of each patient visit, which is based on the facility in which the service was performed, the services provided and the third-party payor, if one is applicable, that is associated with the encounter.
If a service is provided at an in-network facility, these three parameters are utilized to determine the contract rate for such services.
If a service is provided at an out-of-network facility, these three parameters are utilized along with historical collection experience to determine the applicable expected value.
Payment terms for services vary depending on the benefits available from the patient's insurance provider. In some cases, services provided are not covered by a contract between the Company and the payor. In these instances, payment terms such as timing are not defined. In instances where a contract is in place for services, the timing of payment is required within a specified time frame or interest begins to accrue on the outstanding balance. Given these constraints and the variable nature of the information required by payors, the collection timing is protracted and can be lengthy.
The Company does not disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations because its performance obligations have an expected duration of one year or less (facility fees and ancillary services fees) or the promised consideration is variable and relates to a wholly unsatisfied promised service (management fees). As of June 30, 2018, our management fee contracts have a remaining duration of approximately five years.
The following table disaggregates the Company’s net patient and professional fees by facility type - i.e., by hospital, ASC, clinic service and ancillary services (in thousands except case data):

Contracted Marketing
Contracted Marketing Revenues - The Company earns contracted marketing revenue for marketing services provided through marketing services agreements with third-party specialty surgical hospitals, ASC’s and other ancillary service providers that are not a part of the Company’s network of licensed facilities. The Company’s performance obligation under these arrangements is to identify candidates for applicable medical procedures through marketing, patient intake, and upfront education efforts for which
13
we earn a fee based on a percentage of collections from the marketed procedures performed by the outside facilities. Revenue is recognized upon performance of the corresponding medical procedure, which is the point in time our marketing services transfer a benefit to the third-party facilities.
The Company does not disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations because the promised consideration is variable and relates to wholly unsatisfied promised services. The Company estimates contracted marketing revenue using the expected value of each successfully marketed medical procedure, which is based on the facility in which the service is performed, the services provided and the third-party payor, if one is applicable. These parameters are utilized along with historical collection experience to determine the contracted marketing fee. Most of our marketing contracts have initial one-year terms with automatic renewals.
Revenues for contract marketing were $2.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues for contract marketing were $2.4 million and $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017, respectively.
All contract marketing revenues, together with factoring revenues, are included in our Marketing segment.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
Payment for services performed is generally received at the date of the related medical procedure or thereafter, at which time the Company has an unconditional right to collection. For management fees, payment is received monthly for the services rendered in the preceding month. As such, the Company does not have any material contract asset or contract liability balances.
Trade Accounts Receivable
A detail of trade accounts receivable, net is as follows (in thousands):
June 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017 | ||||||
Trade accounts receivable | $ | 136,839 | $ | 140,580 | |||

Trade accounts receivable, net | $ | 143,699 | $ | 144,522 |
Trade accounts receivable related to accounts greater than 365 days was $38.8 million and $20.4 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
For patient accounts receivable resulting from revenue recognized prior to January 1, 2018, an allowance for doubtful accounts was established to reduce the carrying value of such receivables to their estimated net realizable value. Under the new revenue standard, which we adopted effective January 1, 2018, the estimated uncollectable amounts are generally considered implicit price concessions that are a direct reduction to trade accounts receivable rather than allowance for doubtful accounts. However, subsequent changes in estimate of collectability due to a change in the financial status of a payor, for example a bankruptcy, will be recognized as bad debt expense in operating expenses. Bad debt expense was nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
A detail of allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is as follows (in thousands):

From time to time, we transfer to third parties certain of our trade accounts receivable balances on a non-recourse basis in return for advancement on payment to achieve a faster cash collection. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no transferred receivables included in trade accounts receivable.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not receive any advanced payments. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company received advanced payments of nil and $0.1 million, respectively. During the same time period, the Company transferred nil and $0.5 million of receivables, net of advancement of payment.
Athas Health, LLC ("Athas"), Nobilis Health Network Specialist Group, PLLC (NHNSG), NH Clinical Services, PLLC ("NH Clinical") and Premier Health Specialists, LLC ("Premier") purchase receivables from physicians, at a discount, on a non-recourse
14
basis. The discount and purchase price vary by specialty and are recorded at the date of purchase, which generally occurs 30 to 45 days after the accounts are billed. These purchased receivables are billed and collected by Athas, NHNSG, NH Clinical and Premier and they retain 100% of what is collected after paying the discounted purchase price. Following the transfer of the receivable, the transferor has no continued involvement and there are no restrictions on the receivables.
Gross revenue from purchased receivables was $3.5 million and $3.1 million for three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenue, net of the discounted purchase price, was $1.6 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Gross revenue from purchased receivables was $6.1 million and $7.5 million for six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenue, net of the discounted purchase price, was $2.4 million and $3.3 million for six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Trade accounts receivable for purchased receivables was $6.9 million and $6.5 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Revenue from receivables purchased is recorded in the factoring revenue line item within the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Of the $2.9 million balance in other long-term liabilities at June 30, 2018, approximately $2.6 million relates to unfavorable leases. The unfavorable lease liability is amortized as a reduction to rent expense over the contractual periods the Company is required to make rental payments under the leases. Estimated amortization of unfavorable leases for the five years and thereafter subsequent to June 30, 2018, is $0.1 million for the remainder of 2018, $0.3 million for each of 2019, 2020, 2021, $0.2 million for 2022, and $1.7 million thereafter.
NOTE 9 – DEBT
BBVA Credit Agreement
On October 28, 2016, the Company ("Borrower") entered into a BBVA Credit Agreement by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company parties thereto, the lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”) with BBVA Compass Bank as Administrative Agent for the lending group.
The principal amount of the term loan (the “Term Loan”) pursuant to the BBVA Credit Agreement is $52.5 million, which bears interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate of the then applicable LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 4.75%. The effective rate for the Term Loan as of June 30, 2018 was 7.08%. All outstanding principal on the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement is due and payable on October 28, 2021.
The revolving credit facility is $30.0 million (the “Revolver”), which bears interest at the then applicable Interest Rate. The effective rate for the Revolver as of June 30, 2018 was 7.08%. The maturity date of the Revolver is October 28, 2021. Additionally, the
15
Borrower may request additional commitments from the Lenders in the maximum amount of $50 million, either by increasing the Revolver or creating new term loans. The Company executed Amendment No. 2 to the BBVA Credit agreement and exercised its option to extend our commitments. The Company created ("Term Loan B") and added $50 million in debt on November 15, 2017 (discussed further below). As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding balances on the Term Loan and Revolver were $97.3 million and $26.0 million, respectively.
The Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including, among others, the failure by the Borrower to make a payment of principal or interest due under the BBVA Credit Agreement, the making of a materially false or misleading representation or warranty by any loan party, the failure by the Borrower to perform or observe certain covenants in the BBVA Credit Agreement, a change of control, and the occurrence of certain cross-defaults, subject to customary notice and cure provisions. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, and so long as such event of default is continuing, the Administrative Agent could declare the amounts outstanding under the BBVA Credit Agreement due and payable.
The Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to BBVA Credit Agreement and Waiver, dated as of March 3, 2017, by and among NHA, certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, Compass Bank, and other financial institutions (the "Amendment").

The Term B Loan bears interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate of the then applicable LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 6.75%. The effective rate for the Term B Loan as of June 30, 2018 was 9.08%. All outstanding principal on the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement matures on November 15, 2022.

Convertible Promissory Note - AZ Vein
In conjunction with our purchase of AZ Vein, we entered into a $2.25 million convertible promissory note. The convertible promissory note bears interest at 5% per annum and matures on the date that is 36 months from closing. The convertible promissory note (outstanding principal but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) can be converted into common shares of NHC (the "Conversion Shares"), at the sole discretion of NHC and NHA, on the maturity date. The number of Conversion Shares will be based on a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the conversion amount by the volume weighted average price of the common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the trailing ten trading days prior to the maturity date. There are no pre-payment penalties.
In February 2018, the Company entered into a settlement agreement in connection with contract disputes that arose during the year with the sellers of the Company's acquisition of Arizona Vein and Vascular Center, LLC (AVVC) and its four affiliated surgery centers operating as Arizona Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery, LLC (ACMIS), (collectively “AZ Vein”). This settlement resulted in the derecognition of certain liabilities, including the convertible promissory note of $2.25 million discussed herein.

The promissory note (outstanding principal but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) may be converted into common shares of the Company (the "Conversion Shares"), only upon the occurrence of both (i) default by Maker, as defined in the promissory note, and (ii) the election of the Sellers as defined in the promissory note. The number of Conversion Shares will be based on a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the conversion amount by the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the common shares on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date, or (ii) the volume weighted average price of the common shares on NYSE in the trailing ten trading days prior to the maturity date. There are no pre-payment penalties.

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis, including warrant and stock option derivative liabilities. There have been no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the six months ended June 30, 2018.
The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2018 and the Company's fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

In certain cases, where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to valuation, securities are classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. Level 3 liabilities that were measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis consist of warrant and stock option derivative liabilities.
The estimated fair values of the warrant and stock option derivative liabilities were measured using the Black-Scholes valuation model (refer to Note 12 - Options liabilities). Due to the nature of valuation inputs, the valuation of the warrants is considered a Level 3 measurement.
The remaining outstanding warrants expired in May of 2017. The balance of the Company's warrants is zero as of June 30, 2018.

NOTE 11 – SHARE BASED COMPENSATION
Stock Options
The Company granted a total of 280,000 and 650,000 stock options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Of the options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2018, 250,000 of those vested immediately and 30,000 vest ratably over one and three-year periods. Of the options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2018, 350,000 of those vested immediately and 300,000 vest ratably over one and three-year periods. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, 325,000 options were forfeited, with various vesting periods.
The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

The above table includes 500,000 options issued to a non-employee, 500,000 of these are exercisable, and all are still outstanding at June 30, 2018. Refer to Note 12 - Options liabilities for discussion regarding the classification of these options within the Company's consolidated balance sheets.
The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was nil during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. There were no options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2017. Assuming all stock options outstanding were fully vested at June 30, 2018, the total intrinsic value of in-the-money outstanding stock options would have been nil at June 30, 2018.
The Company recorded total stock compensation expense relative to employee stock options of $0.8 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $1.7 million and $1.6 million for six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
The fair values of the employee stock options used in recording compensation expense are computed using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The table below shows the assumptions used in the model for options awarded during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Grant date exercise price per share | $1.22 - $1.57 | $1.35 - $2.32 |
For stock options, the Company recognizes share based compensation net of estimated forfeitures and revises the estimates in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. Forfeiture rates are estimated based on historical experience as well as expected future behavior.
NOTE 12 – OPTIONS LIABILITIES
Options Issued to Non-Employees
In 2014, the Company issued 650,000 options to professionals providing services to the organization. These professionals did not meet the definition of an employee under U.S. GAAP. During 2017, one of the two non-employee professionals became an employee of the Company. At this time, the Company revalued the associated 150,000 shares and reclassified $0.1 million out of the liability and into equity. At June 30, 2018, there were 500,000 options outstanding all of which are fully vested and exercisable to the remaining non-employee professional.
Under U.S. GAAP, the value of these option awards is determined at the performance completion date. The Company recognizes expense for the estimated total value of the awards during the period from their issuance until performance completion since the professional services are being rendered during this time. The total expense recognized is adjusted to the final value of the award as determined on the performance completion date.
Options issued to non-employees are reclassified from liabilities to equity on the performance completion date. Under U.S. GAAP, such options may not be considered indexed to our stock because they have exercise prices denominated in Canadian dollars. Hence, these will be classified as liabilities under the caption “Warrant and stock option derivative liabilities” and recorded at estimated fair value at each reporting date, computed using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Changes in the liability from period to period will be recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under the caption “Change in fair value of warrant and stock option derivative liabilities”. At June 30, 2018, there were 500,000 unexercised non-employee options requiring liability classification.
The changes in fair value of the liability related to vested yet unexercised options issued to non-employees during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 13 – EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net earnings attributable to Nobilis common shareholders, per common share, excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to Nobilis common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings attributable to Nobilis common shareholders, per common share, is computed by dividing net earnings attributable to Nobilis common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus any potential dilutive common share equivalents, including shares issuable upon the vesting stock option awards determined under the treasury stock method, or potentially convertible shares related to our convertible promissory notes determined under the if-converted method, whichever method is more dilutive.
A detail of the Company’s earnings per share is as follows (in thousands, except for share and per share amounts):

Since the Company reflected a net loss during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive. As a result, a separate computation of dilutive loss per share is not presented.
NOTE 14 – NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Interests held by unaffiliated parties in consolidated entities are reflected in noncontrolling interest, which represents the noncontrolling partners' share of the underlying net assets of our consolidated subsidiaries. Noncontrolling interest that is not redeemable is reported in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets.
Agreements with the third-party equity owners in NHC - ASC Dallas and First Nobilis give these owners limited rights to require the Company to repurchase their equity interests upon the occurrence of certain events, none of which were probable of occurring as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The contingently redeemable noncontrolling interests associated with these entities are classified in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as “temporary” or mezzanine equity. Changes in contingently redeemable noncontrolling interests are as follows at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 (in thousands):

Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries that are less than wholly owned meet the definition of a Variable Interest Entity (VIE), and we hold voting interests in all such entities. We consolidate the activities of VIEs for which we are the primary beneficiary. In order to determine whether we own a variable interest in a VIE, we perform a qualitative analysis of the entity’s design, organizational structure, primary decision makers and relevant agreements. Such variable interests include our voting interests, and may also include other interests and rights, including those gained through management contracts.
Since our core business is the management and operation of health care facilities, our subsidiaries that are determined to be VIEs represent entities that own, manage and operate such facilities. Voting interests in such entities are typically owned by us, by physicians practicing at these facilities (or entities controlled by them) and other parties associated with the operation of the facilities. In forming such entities, we typically seek to retain operational control and, as a result, in some cases, voting rights we hold are not proportionate to the economic share of our ownership in these entities, which causes them to meet the VIE definition. We consolidate such VIEs if we determine that we are the primary beneficiary because (i) we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE via our rights and obligations associated with the management and operation of the VIEs health care facilities, and (ii) as a result of our obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive residual returns that could potentially be significant to the VIE, which we have through our equity interests.
The following table summarizes the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of our material VIEs included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES
The Company is a corporation subject to federal income tax at a statutory rate of 21% of pretax earnings. The Company estimates an annual effective income tax rate of 19.7% for U.S. and none for Canada based on the projected results for the year and applies this rate to income before taxes to calculate income tax expense.
The net tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of approximately 13.0%, compared to an income tax expense of $0.7 million with an effective tax rate of approximately 39.9% for the prior corresponding period, which was subject to a federal income tax statutory rate of 35%. The net tax expense amount includes $0.6 million tax expense for states in which the Company operates for each of the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The Company did not recognize any foreign tax expense or benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, as the Company had a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.
The following items caused the first quarter effective income tax rate to be different from the statutory rate:
• | Canada is excluded from the worldwide annual effective tax rate calculation because Canada has historical ordinary losses but does not expect to recognize them and has recorded a full valuation allowance, which increases the effective tax rate by approximately 0.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. |
• | All of the Partnership’s earnings are included in the Company’s net income; however, the Company is not required to record income tax expense or benefit with respect to the portion of the Company’s earnings allocated to its noncontrolling interests, which increases the effective tax rate by approximately 4.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. |
Based on management’s analysis, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2018.

NOTE 17 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In March 2016, the Company acquired an interest in Athelite, a holding company which owns an interest in Dallas Metro, a company formed to provide management services to an HOPD. The Athelite investment is accounted for as an equity method investment (refer to Note 4 - Investments in associates). At June 30, 2018, the Company had $3.8 million in trade accounts receivable from the HOPD.
Physician Related Party Transactions
Nobilis maintains certain medical directorship, consulting and marketing agreements with various physicians who are also equity owners in Nobilis entities. Material related party arrangements of this nature are described below:
• | In July 2014, the Company entered into a marketing services agreement with a physician equity owner and an entity owned by that physician equity owner’s brother. The Company incurred expenses of nil and $0.4 million to the entity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
• | In September 2014, the minority interest holder of a fully consolidated entity, who is also a partial owner of two other hospitals, entered into an ongoing business relationship with the Company. At June 30, 2018, the Company has a net amount due from these related parties of $5.4 million. In addition, the Company leases certain medical equipment and facility space from these related parties. Equipment lease costs of $1.0 million and $1.1 million were incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Facility lease costs of $0.9 million were incurred during both the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
• | In October 2014, the Company entered into a management agreement with an entity controlled by a physician equity owner. In June 2015, the Company expanded the relationship with this physician equity owner and an entity owned by the physician equity owner's wife to include consulting, marketing, medical supplies, medical directorship and on-call agreements (collectively "service agreements"). The Company incurred expenses of $0.3 million and $1.5 million in fees owed pursuant to the management agreement to the entity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company has incurred expenses of $0.7 million and $4.3 million in fees owed pursuant to the service agreements to the entity during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
• | In April 2017, the minority interest holder of a fully consolidated entity, who is also a member of the Company's board of directors, entered into an ongoing business relationship with the Company. The Company incurred expenses of $0.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018, the Company has a net amount due to this related party of $0.1 million. |
NOTE 18 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
In the normal course of our business, we are subject to legal proceedings brought by or against us and our subsidiaries, including claims for damages for personal injuries, medical malpractice, breach of contracts, and employment related claims. In certain of these actions, plaintiffs request payment for damages, including punitive damages that may not be covered by insurance. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially impact the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
A statement of claim (complaint), Vince Capelli v. Nobilis Health Corp. et. al, was filed on January 8, 2016 in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice under court file number CV-16-544173 naming Nobilis Health Corp., certain current and former officers and the Company’s former auditors as defendants. The statement of claim seeks to advance claims on behalf of the plaintiff and on behalf of a class comprised of certain of our shareholders related to, among other things, alleged certain violations of the Ontario Securities Act and seeks damages in the amount of $80 million Canadian dollars plus interest. The defendants intend to vigorously defend against these claims. At this time, the Company believes it is too early to provide a realistic estimate of the Company’s exposure.

Executive Overview
Our operations consist of two reportable business segments, the Medical Segment and the Marketing Segment, each of which is described in more detail in the following paragraphs. Our Medical Segment owns and manages specialty surgical hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and multi-specialty clinics. It focuses on improving patient outcomes by providing minimally invasive procedures that can be performed in low-cost, outpatient settings. To promote further improvements in patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes, Nobilis has spent the last two years developing a full suite of ancillary services that we offer patients treated in our facilities. To date, Nobilis is able to provide a variety of in-house ancillary services, such as Anesthesia, Surgical Assist, Intraoperative Neuromonitoring ("IOM"), and clinical lab testing (collectively, "Nobilis Ancillary Service Lines").
Our business also utilizes innovative direct-to-consumer marketing and proprietary technologies to drive patient engagement and education. Our Marketing Segment provides these services to the facilities that comprise our Medical Segment; we also provide these services to third parties as a stand-alone service.
Our portfolio of specialty surgical hospitals, ASCs and multi-specialty clinics is complemented by our Marketing Segment, which allows us to operate those facilities in many instances with few, if any, physician partners. Our differentiated business strategy provides value to patients, physicians and payors, and enables us to capitalize on recent trends in the healthcare industry, particularly with regard to increased consumerism in the healthcare space. As a result, we believe we are positioned for continued growth.
In 2018 we will continue to expand the continuum of care that we offer our patients by furthering the integration of primary care physician practices into our business model. Through the alignment of primary care physicians, which includes an array of options from clinical integration to employment, this initiative will allow us to grow our referral based business, while providing direct exposure to the initial level of patient care and diversifying the services provided throughout our healthcare system. It also affords us the opportunity to broaden marketing services throughout the continuum of care and match the healthcare needs of patients, all while maintaining a focus on patient outcomes and satisfaction. Our engagement of primary care physicians at the clinical level will continue to drive contracted revenues and Management’s ongoing efforts to strengthen our revenue platform.
Our pipeline of acquisition targets is robust and varies by geography. We will be opportunistic in choosing the order of these acquisitions and will make our decisions based on geographic location, existing and potential physician relationship and marketing opportunities within the targeted market.
On October 28, 2016 and March 8, 2017, we purchased Arizona Vein and Vascular Center, LLC and its four affiliated surgery centers operating as Arizona Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery, LLC, (collectively, "AZ Vein") and Hamilton Vein Center (HVC) brand and associated assets, respectively. The acquisitions expanded our specialty mix to include the treatment of venous diseases with little modification to our existing infrastructure of specialty surgical hospitals and ASCs. Our facilities will be able to offer a range of treatments, both surgical and non-surgical, for those patients suffering from venous diseases, which today affect more than 30 million Americans.
In addition to our vein and vascular business acquisitions, on September 13, 2017, we purchased DeRosa Medical, P.C. ("DeRosa"). DeRosa is a primary care practice that specializes in health and wellness, medically supervised weight loss, and chronic health condition management. The practice has three locations in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area: Scottsdale, Chandler, and Glendale. The acquisition of DeRosa allows the Company to enhance our ability to serve patients across the continuum of care, from primary care needs to surgical procedures, utilizing its concierge care delivery model. The addition of DeRosa also complements the existing facilities located in Arizona.
On November 15, 2017, the Company acquired a 50.1% ownership in Elite Surgical Affiliates' ("Elite"), an in-network portfolio that manages three ASCs and one surgical hospital in Houston. The purchase was financed through an expansion of $50.0 million to the Company's current credit facility, cash of $6.1 million, a seller's note of $3.5 million, and stock of $0.5 million. This transaction represents the Company's largest acquisition to date and provides a significant enhancement to the Company's goal to realize the majority of revenues from in-network managed care contracts. In addition, this acquisition represents an expansion of 76 physician partners to the Houston market network of physicians and provides additional benefits in the form of operational efficiencies, increased company footprint, and an increase to available resources.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company began operations at Mountain West Surgical Center (ASC) located in El Paso, Texas and Uptown Surgical Center (ASC) in Dallas, Texas. These ASCs will provide similar multi-specialty services to the current brands the Company markets to customers and those currently performed at other company owned facilities. These ASCs generate revenue through in-network contracts and progress the Company's overall in-network contributions to revenue while also capturing additional patients in the Dallas, West Texas, and New Mexico markets.
Our growth strategy focuses on:
•Driving organic growth in facilities that we own and operate; and
•Executing a disciplined acquisition strategy that results in accretive acquisitions.
28
Medical Segment
Our Medical Segment broadly includes our ownership or operation of healthcare facilities (the “Nobilis Facilities”) (which include specialty surgical hospitals, ASCs and multi-specialty clinics) and Nobilis Ancillary Service Lines.
As of June 30, 2018, there are 33 Nobilis Facilities, consisting of 5 specialty surgical hospitals (4 in Texas and 1 in Arizona) (the "Nobilis Hospitals"), 13 ASCs (9 in Texas and 4 in Arizona) and 15 multi-specialty clinics (8 in Texas and 7 in Arizona), partnered with 34 facilities across the country and 9 marketed brands. We earn revenue in our Medical Segment from the “facility fees” or “technical fees” from third party payors or patients for the services rendered at the Nobilis Facilities. The Nobilis Facilities are each licensed in the state where they are located and provide surgical procedures in a limited number of clinical specialties, which enables them to develop routines, procedures, and protocols to maximize operating efficiency and productivity while offering an enhanced healthcare experience for both physicians and patients.
These clinical specialties include musculoskeletal surgery, orthopedic surgery, podiatric surgery, vein and vascular, ear nose and throat (ENT) surgery, pain management, gastro-intestinal surgery, gynecology and general surgery. The Nobilis ASCs do not offer the full range of services typically found in traditional hospitals.
Marketing Segment
Our Marketing Segment provides marketing services, patient education services and patient care coordination management services to the Nobilis Facilities, to third party facilities in states where we currently do not operate, and to physicians. We market several minimally-invasive medical procedures and brands, which include the following:
• | North American Spine: promotion of minimally invasive spine procedures (pain management, musculoskeletal and spine); |
• | Migraine Treatment Centers of America: promotion of procedures related to chronic migraine pain (interventional headache procedure); |
• | NueStep: promotion of surgical procedures designed to treat pain in the foot, ankle and leg (podiatry); |
• | Evolve: The Experts in Weight Loss Surgery: promotion of surgical weight loss procedures (bariatrics); |
• | Minimally Invasive Reproductive Surgery Institute (“MIRI”): promotion of women’s health related procedures; |
• | Onward Orthopedics: promotion of general orthopedics, sports medicine related to orthopedics (orthopedics and pain management interventions); |
• | Clarity Vein and Vascular: promotion of cosmetic and medical vein and vascular treatments; and |
• | Arizona Vein and Vascular Center: promotion of cosmetic and medical vein and vascular treatments. |
• | Hamilton Vein Center: promotion of cosmetic and medical vein and vascular treatments. |
Our Marketing Segment does not directly provide medical services to patients; rather, we identify candidates for our branded procedures, educate these potential patients about the relevant procedure and direct those patients to affiliated physicians who diagnose and treat those patients at affiliated facilities. Through our Marketing Segment, we have contractual relationships with facilities and physicians in several states.
We earn service fees from our partner facilities that, depending on the laws of the state in which a partner facility is located, are either charged as a flat monthly fee or are calculated based on a portion of the “facility fee” revenue generated by the partner facility for a given procedure.
Our revenues from physician-related services are, depending on the laws of the state in which a partner-physician practices, either earned directly from professional fees or through the purchase of trade accounts receivable. In Texas, we engage physicians through entities exempt from Texas corporate practice of medicine laws that directly earn professional fees for partner-physician services and, in turn, pay partner-physicians a reasonable fee for rendering those professional services. In other states, we manage our partner-physicians’ practices and purchase the trade accounts receivable at a discount of those practices through trade accounts receivable purchase agreements, consistent with the laws in those states. The revenues generated from certain trade accounts receivables purchased from third parties in the ordinary course of business represents our factoring revenues.
Seasonality of the Business
The surgical segment of the healthcare industry tends to be impacted by seasonality because most benefit plans reset on a calendar year basis. As patients utilize and reduce their remaining deductible, Nobilis Facilities typically experience an increase in volume throughout the year, with the biggest impact coming in the fourth quarter. Historically, approximately 35% - 40% of our annual revenues have been recognized in the fourth quarter.
29
Operating Environment
The Medical Segment depends primarily upon third-party reimbursement from private insurers to pay for substantially all of the services rendered to our patients. The majority of the revenues attributable to the Medical Segment are from reimbursement to the Nobilis Hospitals and Nobilis ASCs as “out-of-network” providers. This means the Nobilis Facilities are not contracted with a major medical insurer as an “in-network” participant. Participation in such networks offer the benefit of larger patient populations and defined, predictable payment rates. The reimbursement to in-network providers, however, is typically far less than that paid to out of network providers. To a far lesser degree, the Nobilis Facilities earn fees from governmental payor programs such as Medicare. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we derived approximately 1.7% and 1.3% for the respective periods of our Medical Segment’s net revenues from governmental healthcare programs, primarily Medicare and managed Medicare programs, and the remainder from a wide mix of commercial payers and patient co-pays, coinsurance, and deductibles.
We receive a relatively small amount of revenue from Medicare. We also receive a relatively small portion of revenue directly from uninsured patients, who pay out of pocket for the services they receive.
Insured patients are responsible for services not covered by their health insurance plans, deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance obligations under their plans. The amount of these deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance obligations has increased in recent years but does not represent a material component of the revenue generated by the Nobilis Facilities. The surgical center fees of the Nobilis Facilities are generated by the physician limited partners and the other physicians who utilize the Nobilis Facilities to provide services.
Revenue Model and Case Mix
Revenues earned by the Nobilis Facilities vary depending on the procedures performed. For every medical procedure performed there are usually three separately invoiced patient billings:
• | the surgical center fee for the use of infrastructure, surgical equipment, nursing staff, non-surgical professional services, supplies and other support services, which is earned by the Nobilis Facilities; |
• | the professional fee, which is separately earned, billed and collected by the physician performing the procedure, separate and apart from the fees charged by the Nobilis Facilities; and |
• | the anesthesiology fee, which is separately earned, billed and collected by the anesthesia provider, separate and apart from the fees charged by the Nobilis Facilities and the physicians. |
Overall facility revenue depends on procedure volume, case mix and payment rates of the respective payors.

Revenues
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $69.2 million, a decrease of $10.8 million or 13.5%, compared to $80.0 million in the prior corresponding period. Total cases increased by 1,644 to 6,241 cases, or 35.8%, compared to 4,597 cases in the prior corresponding period. Medical Segment revenues decreased by $11.8 million to $65.3 million or 15.3%, compared to $77.1 million in the prior corresponding period, and the Marketing Segment increased by $1.0 million.
Salaries and Benefits
Operating salaries and benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $16.2 million, an increase of $0.8 million or 5.0%, compared to $15.4 million in the prior corresponding period. The Medical Segment increased by $0.4 million or 3.0%, while the Marketing Segment increased by $0.4 million or 16.1%, from the prior corresponding period.
Drugs and Supplies
Drugs and supplies expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $10.5 million, a decrease of $2.1 million or 16.5%, compared to $12.6 million in the prior corresponding period.
31
General and Administrative
Operating general and administrative expense for three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $26.4 million, a decrease of $8.8 million or 25.0%, compared to $35.2 million in the prior corresponding period. The Medical Segment accounted for $8.0 million of the decrease and the Marketing Segment made up the remaining $0.8 million of the decrease.
Depreciation and Amortization
Operating depreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $5.1 million, an increase of $2.4 million or 87.5%, compared to $2.7 million in the prior corresponding period. This increase is primarily due to the additional depreciation expense incurred related to acquired equipment and intangible assets through acquisitions of Elite and DeRosa within our Medical Segment.
Total Corporate Costs
To illustrate our operational efficiency, corporate costs are presented separate of operating expenses of the revenue generating facilities. Corporate costs totaled $6.9 million, an increase of $0.2 million or 3.0%, compared to $6.7 million in the prior corresponding period.
Salaries and benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $3.0 million, a decrease of $0.6 million or 17.9%, compared to $3.6 million in the prior corresponding period. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $3.2 million, an increase of $0.6 million or 23.2%, compared to $2.6 million in the prior corresponding period. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to an increase in share based compensation expenses and infrastructure enhancement of revenue cycle. Legal expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $0.6 million, an increase of $0.2 million or 57.5%, compared to $0.4 million from the prior corresponding period.
Other Expense (Income)
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $1.9 million of other expense compared to $1.9 million in the prior corresponding period. Interest expense increased $1.9 million in the current period as a result of an increase in borrowings and amortization of debt issuance costs, partially offset by an increase of $1.5 million in other income and a change in warrant and stock option derivative liability of $0.4 million.
The warrants and options have exercise prices denominated in Canadian dollars and as such may not be considered indexed to our stock which is valued in U.S. dollars and therefore recorded as derivative liabilities. Change in fair value of warrant and stock option derivative liabilities are a result of adjusting the estimated fair value at the end of the period, using the Black-Scholes Model. All of the warrants previously issued expired in first half of 2017.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit), Net
The net tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.5 million, compared to an income tax expense of $2.2 million in the prior corresponding period. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate differs from the annual tax rate primarily due to Canada's loss that we do not expect to realize, and noncontrolling interests. The Company’s state tax expense was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our effective tax rate during the three months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately 22.1%. The Company estimates an annual effective income tax rate of 19.4% for U.S., and none for Canada, based on projected results for the year.
Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests are based on ownership percentages in the Nobilis Facilities that are owned by third parties.

Notes
(1) This table refers to all cases performed, regardless of their contribution to revenue.
(2) Calculated by dividing revenues by the number of cases.
Revenues
Revenues for the Medical Segment decreased by $11.8 million to $65.3 million or 15.3%, compared to $77.1 million in the prior corresponding period. Revenues decreased primarily due to the two facilities that experienced turnover of physicians that were large contributors to facility revenue based on the acuity of the cases they perform on average. In addition, the Company discontinued our lab services product line. The Company has managed to mitigate this loss by continuing to backfill these higher acuity cases from the Marketing Segment and continuing to develop new relationships through the efforts of its sales force.
Salaries and Benefits
Salaries and benefits for the Medical Segment increased by $0.4 million to $13.5 million or 3.0%, compared to $13.1 million in the prior corresponding period. Operating salaries and benefits increased primarily due to additional headcount related to new employees acquired during the DeRosa acquisition.
Drugs and Supplies
Drugs and supplies expense for the Medical Segment decreased by $1.9 million to $9.9 million or 16.3%, compared to $11.8 million in the prior corresponding period. Drugs and supplies decreased compared to the prior corresponding period primarily due to the margin improvement as a result of increased utilization of GPO (Group Purchasing Organization) vendors, other national supply contracts negotiated by the Company and an increase in the utilization of surplus supply vendors. Management measures the efficiency of drugs and supplies spend as a percent of associated revenues.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense for the Medical Segment decreased by $8.0 million to $26.7 million or 23.0%, compared to $34.7 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease is the result of lower third party expenses, primarily associated with the discontinuation of our lab services product line.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, marketing expenses allocated to the Medical Segment increased by $1.6 million to $8.2 million, compared to $6.6 million in the prior corresponding period. These marketing costs are allocated from our Marketing Segment for cases performed at Nobilis Facilities. Our number of cases allocated to the Medical Segment increased year over year, however, the Marketing segment began to implement efficiencies in cost per acquisition with the hiring of key staff within the department resulting in a decrease of overall expenses to be allocated to the Nobilis Facilities. These cost efficiencies helped to reduce the impact of increased cost allocations to the Nobilis Facilities while providing additional volumes in comparison to the prior period.

Revenues
Revenues for the Marketing Segment increased by $1.0 million to $3.8 million or 35.5%, compared to $2.8 million in the prior corresponding period. Marketing Segment revenues increased period over period primarily due to better allocation of surgeries between external facilities resulting in higher revenue per case.
Salaries and Benefits and General and Administrative
Salaries and benefits and general and administrative expenses decreased in total by $0.4 million or 14.5%, to $2.3 million from $2.8 million in the prior corresponding period. Salaries and benefits for the Marketing Segment increased by $0.4 million or 16.1%, to $2.7 million compared to $2.3 million in the corresponding period. The increase is primarily related to additional headcount year over year. Marketing costs and associated salaries and benefits are allocated to our Medical Segment for cases performed at Nobilis Facilities, which accounting for the Marketing Segment's $0.4 million decrease. The addition of key staff within the Marketing Segment has assisted the Company to implement cost efficiencies per acquisition.

Operating general and administrative expense for six months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $54.7 million, an decrease of $14.2 million or 20.6%, compared to $68.8 million in the prior corresponding period. The Medical Segment accounted for $12.9 million of the decrease, and the Marketing Segment made up the remaining $1.2 million of the decrease.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $9.7 million, an increase of $4.7 million or 92.4%, compared to $5.1 million in the prior corresponding period. This increase is primarily due to the additional depreciation expense incurred related to acquired equipment and intangible assets through acquisitions of Elite, HVC and DeRosa within our Medical Segment.
Total Corporate Costs
To illustrate our operational efficiency, corporate costs are presented separate of operating expenses of the revenue generating facilities. Corporate costs totaled $14.0 million, a decrease of $0.1 million or 0.5%, compared to $14.0 million in the prior corresponding period. Salaries and benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $5.6 million, a decrease of $0.5 million or 7.9%, compared to $6.1 million in the prior corresponding period. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $6.7 million, a decrease of $0.1 million or 1.5%, compared to $6.8 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to a decline in share based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Legal expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018, totaled $1.5 million, an increase of $0.5 million or 50.4%, compared to $1.0 million in the prior corresponding period.
Other Expense (Income)
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized $3.9 million of other expense compared to $2.5 million of other expense in the prior corresponding period. Interest expense increased by $3.6 million in the current period as a result of an increase in borrowings and amortization of debt issuance costs, partially offset by an increase of $2.2 million in other income.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit), Net
The net tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.2 million, compared to an income tax expense of $0.7 million in the prior corresponding period. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate differs from the annual tax rate primarily due to Canada's loss that we do not expect to realize, and noncontrolling interests. The Company’s state tax expense was $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Our effective tax rate during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately 13.0%. The Company estimates an annual effective income tax rate of 19.7% for U.S., and none for Canada, based on projected results for the year.
Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests are based on ownership percentages in the Nobilis Facilities that are owned by third parties.

Revenues
Revenues for the Medical Segment decreased by $13.0 million to $128.9 million or 9.1%, compared to $141.9 million in the prior corresponding period. Revenues decreased primarily due to the two facilities that experienced turnover of physicians that were large contributors to facility revenue based on the acuity of the cases they perform on average. In addition, the Company discontinued our lab services product line. The Company has managed to mitigate this loss by continuing to backfill these higher acuity cases from the Marketing Segment and continuing to develop new relationships through the efforts of its sales force.
Salaries and Benefits
Salaries and benefits for the Medical Segment increased by $1.2 million to $27.2 million or 4.7%, compared to $25.9 million in the prior corresponding period. Operating salaries and benefits increased primarily due to additional headcount related to new employees acquired during the HVC and DeRosa acquisitions.
Drugs and Supplies
Drugs and supplies expense for the Medical Segment decreased by $4.1 million to $19.7 million or 17.3%, compared to $23.8 million in the prior corresponding period. Drugs and supplies decreased compared to the prior corresponding period primarily due to the margin improvement as a result of increased utilization of GPO (Group Purchasing Organization) vendors, other national supply contracts negotiated by the Company and an increase in the utilization of surplus supply vendors. Management measures the efficiency of drugs and supplies spend as a percent of associated revenues.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense for the Medical Segment decreased by $12.9 million to $55.4 million or 18.9%, compared to $68.3 million in the prior corresponding period. The decrease is the result of lower third party expenses, primarily associated with the discontinuation of our lab services product line.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, marketing expenses allocated to the Medical Segment increased by $1.9 million to $16.2 million, compared to $14.3 million in the prior corresponding period. These marketing cost are allocated from our Marketing Segment for cases performed at Nobilis Facilities. Our acquisitions allow us to send more cases to owned facilities, resulting in larger allocations of marketing expense from our Marketing Segment to our Medical Segment.
MARKETING SEGMENT

Notes

(2) Calculated by dividing revenues by the number of cases.
Revenues
Revenues for the Marketing Segment decreased by $1.7 million to $4.6 million or 27.6%, compared to $6.3 million in the prior corresponding period. Marketing Segment revenues decreased primarily due the unfavorable shift in acuity mix during the first quarter and allocation of surgeries between external facilities.
Salaries and Benefits and General and Administrative
Salaries and benefits and general and administrative expenses decreased in total by $0.8 million or 14.5%, to $4.5 million from $5.3 million in the prior corresponding period. Salaries and benefits for the Marketing Segment increased by $0.5 million or 9.4%, to $5.2 million compared to $4.8 million in the corresponding period. The increase is primarily related to additional headcount year over year. Marketing costs and associated salaries and benefits are allocated to our Medical Segment for cases performed at
37
Nobilis Facilities, which accounting for the Marketing Segment's $0.8 million decrease. The addition of key staff within the Marketing Segment has assisted the Company to implement cost efficiencies per acquisition.
Balance Sheet
The Company experienced material variances in certain balance sheet accounts as discussed herein.
Trade Accounts Receivable, Net
Trade accounts receivable, net, as of June 30, 2018, totaled $143.7 million, a decrease of $0.8 million or 0.6%, compared to $144.5 million for the year-ended December 31, 2017. The decrease is consistent with the seasonality of the healthcare industry. As previously mentioned herein, 35% - 40% of our revenues are earned in the fourth quarter, resulting in higher balances in accounts receivable at year end with collections and lower volume lowering the balance in the subsequent quarter.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We are dependent upon cash generated from our operations, which is the major source of financing for our operations and for meeting our contractual obligations. We currently believe we have adequate liquidity to fund operations during the near term through the generation of operating cash flows, cash on hand and access to our senior secured revolving credit facility provided under the loan agreement. Our ability to borrow funds under this loan agreement is subject to, among other things, the financial viability of the participating financial institutions. While we do not anticipate any of our current lenders defaulting on their obligations, we are unable to provide assurance that any particular lender will not default at a future date.
Cash at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $16.5 million and $22.5 million, respectively.
As of June 30, 2018, net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $16.2 million from the prior year attributable to a decrease in collections and net income performance in the current period. Net cash used for investing activities decreased by $10.6 million from the prior year primarily attributable to the closing of the HVC transaction on March 8, 2017 in the prior corresponding period. Net cash used for financing activities increased by $5.1 million from the prior year primarily due to an increase in distributions to noncontrolling interest as well as an increase in debt payments. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in borrowings from our line of credit.
As of June 30, 2018, the Company had consolidated net working capital of $97.5 million compared to $97.6 million as of December 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in trade accounts receivable related to seasonality of the healthcare industry.
Debt
BBVA Credit Agreement
On October 28, 2016 the Company ("Borrower") entered into a BBVA Credit Agreement by and among the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company parties thereto, the lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”) with BBVA Compass Bank as Administrative Agent for the lending group.
The principal amount of the term loan (the “Term Loan”) pursuant to the BBVA Credit Agreement is $52.5 million, which bears interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof at a rate of the then applicable LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 4.75%. The effective rate for the Term Loan as of June 30, 2018 was 7.08%. All outstanding principal on the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement is due and payable on October 28, 2021.
The revolving credit facility is $30.0 million (the “Revolver”), which bears interest at the then applicable Interest Rate. The effective rate for the Revolver as of June 30, 2018 was 7.08%. The maturity date of the Revolver is October 28, 2021. Additionally, the Borrower may request additional commitments from the Lenders in the maximum amount of $50 million, either by increasing the Revolver or creating new term loans. The Company executed Amendment No. 2 to the BBVA Credit agreement and exercised its option to extend our commitments. The Company created ("Term Loan B") and added $50 million in debt on November 15, 2017 (discussed further below). As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding balances on the Term Loan and Revolver were $97.3 million and $26.0 million, respectively.
The Loan Agreement also contains customary events of default, including, among others, the failure by the Borrower to make a payment of principal or interest due under the BBVA Credit Agreement, the making of a materially false or misleading representation or warranty by any loan party, the failure by the Borrower to perform or observe certain covenants in the BBVA Credit Agreement, a change of control, and the occurrence of certain cross-defaults, subject to customary notice and cure provisions. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, and so long as such event of default is continuing, the Administrative Agent could declare the amounts outstanding under the BBVA Credit Agreement due and payable.
The Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to BBVA Credit Agreement and Waiver, dated as of March 3, 2017, by and among NHA, certain subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, Compass Bank, and other financial institutions (the "Amendment"). The purpose of the Amendment was to (i) modify the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” to require Lender approval and consent for any acquisition which is closing during the 2017 fiscal year; (ii) modify certain financial definitions and covenants, including,
38
but not limited to, an increase to the maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio to 3.75 to 1.00 for the period beginning September 30, 2016 and ending September 30, 2017, and an increase to the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio to 1.15 to 1.00 for the period beginning September 30, 2016 and ending June 30, 2017; (iii) waive the Pro Forma Leverage Requirement in connection with the previously reported HVC; and (iv) provide each Lender’s consent to the HVC acquisition. The Amendment also contained a limited waiver of a specified event of default.
The Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to BBVA Credit Agreement, dated November 15, 2017, by and among Northstar Healthcare Acquisitions, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Nobilis Health Corp., and Northstar Healthcare Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, entered into the Amendment and certain subsidiaries of the Company. The purpose of the Amendment was to finance the aforementioned Elite acquisition, thereby increasing the aggregate principal amount by $50.0 million through issuance of the Term B Loan. The Term B Loan bears interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate of the then applicable LIBOR, plus an applicable margin of 6.75%. The effective rate for the Term B Loan as of June 30, 2018 was 9.08%. All outstanding principal on the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement matures on November 15, 2022.
The BBVA Compass Credit Agreement contains three financial covenants that are tested beginning on December 31, 2017. The consolidated leverage ratio may not exceed (i) 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter from December 31, 2017 through and including September 30, 2018 (ii) 3.75 to 1.00 from December 31, 2018 through and including September 30, 2019 (iii) 3.50 to 1.00 from December 31, 2019 and thereafter, subject to covenant holidays upon the occurrence of certain conditions.

Substantially all of the Company’s assets are pledged as collateral to secure the Facility.
Loan origination fees are deferred and the net amount is amortized over the contractual life of the related loans.
Convertible Promissory Note - AZ Vein
In conjunction with our purchase of AZ Vein, we entered into a $2.25 million convertible promissory note. The convertible promissory note bears interest at 5% per annum and matures on the date that is 36 months from closing. The convertible promissory note (outstanding principal but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) can be converted into common shares of NHC (the "Conversion Shares"), at the sole discretion of NHC and NHA, on the maturity date. The number of Conversion Shares will be based on a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the conversion amount by the volume weighted average price of the common shares on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the trailing ten trading days prior to the maturity date. There are no pre-payment penalties.
In February 2018, the Company entered into a settlement agreement in connection with contract disputes that arose during the year with the sellers of the Company's acquisition of AZ Vein. This settlement resulted in the derecognition of certain liabilities, including the convertible promissory note of $2.25 million discussed herein.
Convertible Promissory Note - HVC
In conjunction with our purchase of HVC, we entered into a $5.0 million convertible promissory note. The convertible promissory matures on March 8, 2019, bears interest at 5% per annum and is payable in two equal installments over a two-year period. The convertible promissory note (outstanding principal but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) can be converted into common shares of NHC (the "Conversion Shares"), at the sole discretion of NHC and NHA, on the maturity date. The number of Conversion Shares will be based on a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the conversion amount by the volume weighted average price of the common shares on the NYSE in the trailing ten trading days prior to the maturity date. There are no pre-payment penalties.
Convertible Promissory Note - Elite
In conjunction with our purchase of Elite, we entered into a $3.5 million convertible promissory note. The convertible promissory note matures on November 15, 2019, bears interest at 6.75% per annum and is payable in three installments over a two year period. The interest payments are due quarterly. The promissory note (outstanding principal but excluding accrued and unpaid interest) may be converted into common shares of the Company (the "Conversion Shares"), only upon the occurrence of both (i) default by Maker, as defined in the promissory note, and (ii) the election of the Sellers as defined in the promissory note. The number of Conversion Shares will be based on a price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the conversion amount by the lesser of (i) the closing bid price of the common shares on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date, or (ii)
39
the volume weighted average price of the common shares on NYSE in the trailing ten trading days prior to the maturity date. There are no pre-payment penalties.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies are further described 2017 Annual Report. There have been no changes in the nature of our critical accounting policies or the application of those policies since December 31, 2017.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources other than operating leases disclosed in Note 13 included in Part II, Item 8 —"Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” in our 2017 Annual Report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are subject to market risk primarily from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing activities. Our term loans and revolving credit lines carry terms with both fixed rate and variable rate debt to manage our exposures to changes in interest rates. Our variable debt instruments are primarily indexed to the prime rate or LIBOR. Interest rate changes would result in gains or losses in the market value of our fixed rate debt portfolio due to differences in market interest rates and the rates at the inception of the debt agreements. Based upon our indebtedness at June 30, 2018, a 100 basis point interest rate change would impact our net earnings and cash flow by approximately $1.2 million annually. Although there can be no assurances that interest rates will not change significantly, we do not expect changes in interest rates to have a material effect on our net earnings or cash flows in 2018.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), the principal executive officer, and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the principal financial officer, the Company's management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective during the six months ended June 30, 2018, except for the material weaknesses previously identified in Part II, Item 9A-Controls and Procedures of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 as filed with the SEC on March 12, 2018.
Remediation Initiatives
We are currently in the process of implementing our remediation plans. To date, we have implemented and are continuing to implement a number of measures to address the material weaknesses identified. The remediation plan includes the following:
• | We are implementing enhanced internal controls and improving the communication and coordination among our third-party billing and collection agencies, finance department and our record-keeping procedures and we have expanded cross-functional involvement and input into monthly reviews of outstanding and aged trade accounts receivable due to the Company. |
• | We are in the process of assessing the allowance for doubtful accounts process and methodology including documenting additional procedures; which includes those designed to add depth to our review procedures. |
• | Implementing specific review procedures, including the added involvement of third-party specialists in the review of significant, complex and non-recurring transactions designed to enhance our financial reporting and month end close processes; and |
• | Strengthening our financial reporting process with improved documentation standards, technical oversight and training related to third-party valuations and acquisition accounting. |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Except as discussed immediately above in the Remediation Initiatives, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
