Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the SEC regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2023 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures including notes required by U.S. GAAP. Principles of Consolidation The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and operations of DocGo Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. Noncontrolling interests (“NCI”) on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements represent a portion of consolidated joint ventures and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Company does not have direct equity ownership. Certain amounts in the prior periods’ unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP (the “Reverse Recapitalization”). Under this method of accounting, the Company was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Reverse Recapitalization was treated as the equivalent of Ambulnz stock for the net assets of the Company, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of the Company are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations prior to the Reverse Recapitalization are those of Ambulnz. The shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share available for common stockholders prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio (645.1452 to 1) established in the Business Combination. Further, Ambulnz was determined to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction, and as such, the acquisition is considered a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), the Company assesses whether it has a variable interest in legal entities in which it has a financial interest and, if so, whether or not those entities are VIEs. For those entities that qualify as VIEs, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine if the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and if so, to consolidate the VIE. The Company holds variable interests in legal entities that contract with physicians and other health professionals that provide services on behalf of the Company. These entities are considered VIEs since they do not have sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. An enterprise having a controlling financial interest in a VIE must consolidate the VIE if it is the primary beneficiary, meaning it has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impacts the VIE’s economic performance (power) and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE (benefits). The Company has the power and rights to control all activities of its VIEs and funds and absorbs all losses of its VIEs. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of its VIEs and therefore appropriately consolidates its VIEs. Net income (loss) for the Company’s VIEs was $(67,785) and $(103,378) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $(425,668) and $16,839 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Total assets amounted to $11,844,062 and $4,364,274 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Total liabilities were $12,717,312 and $4,811,857 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company’s VIEs’ total stockholders’ deficit was $873,250 and $447,583 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Foreign Currency The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s foreign operation is the British pound. Assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operation denominated in the British pound are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date, except for equity accounts, which are translated at historical rates. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustment for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 were $934,774 and $(582,471), respectively, and $828,613 and $66,965 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses; the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in its financial statements; and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates in the Company’s financial statements relate to revenue recognition related to the allowance for credit loss, stock-based compensation, calculations related to the incremental borrowing rate for the Company’s lease agreements, estimates related to ongoing lease terms, software development costs, impairment of long-lived assets, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, business combinations, reserve for losses within the Company’s insurance deductibles, income taxes and deferred income tax. These estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the recording of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially and adversely from these estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and actual results, the Company’s future results of operations could be adversely affected. Self-Insurance Reserves The Company self-insures a number of risks, including, but not limited to, workers’ compensation, general liability, auto liability and certain employee-related healthcare benefits. Standard actuarial procedures and data analysis are used to estimate the liabilities associated with these risks on an undiscounted basis. The recorded liabilities reflect the ultimate cost for claims incurred but not paid and any estimable administrative run-out expenses related to the processing of these outstanding claim payments. On a regular basis, the liabilities are evaluated for appropriateness with claims reserve valuations. To limit exposure to some risks, the Company maintains insurance coverage with varying limits and retentions, including stop-loss insurance coverage for workers’ compensation, general liability and auto liability. Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk The Company is potentially subject to concentration of credit risk with respect to its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, which the Company attempts to minimize by maintaining cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash with institutions of sound financial quality. At times, cash balances may exceed limits federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial strength of the depository institutions in which the funds are held. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of loss. Major Customers The Company had one customer that accounted for approximately 41% of revenues and 34% of net accounts receivable and another customer that accounted for 21% of revenues and 44% of net accounts receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The Company had one customer that accounted for approximately 36% of revenues and 34% of net accounts receivable and another customer that accounted for 31% of revenues and 44% of net accounts receivable for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company had one customer that accounted for approximately 33% of revenues and 36% of net accounts receivable and another customer that accounted for approximately 32% of revenues and 28% of accounts receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The Company had one customer that accounted for approximately 37% of revenues and 28% of net accounts receivable and another customer that accounted for approximately 17% of revenues and 36% of accounts receivables for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Major Vendor The Company had one vendor that accounted for approximatel y 19% and 20% of total cost for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company expects to maintain this relationship with the vendor and believes the services provided by this vendor are available from alternative sources. The Company had one vendor that accounted for approximately 18% and 13% of total cost for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company expects to maintain this relationship with the vendor and believes the services provided from this vendor are available from alternative sources. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to maintain consistency between periods presented. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or retained earnings. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. The Company maintains most of its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions in the U.S. The Company’s accounts at financial institutions in the U.S. are insured by the FDIC and are in excess of FDIC insured limits. The Company had cash balances of approximate ly $5,064,084 and $3,699,793 with foreign financial institutions on September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Restricted Cash Cash and cash equivalents subject to contractual restrictions and not readily available are classified as restricted cash in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted cash is classified as either a current or non-current asset depending on the restriction period. The Company is required to pledge or otherwise restrict a portion of cash and cash equivalents as collateral for self-insurance exposures and a standby letter of credit as required by its insurance carrier (see Note 9). The Company utilizes a combination of insurance and self-insurance programs, including a wholly owned captive insurance entity, to provide for the potential liabilities for certain risks, including workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general liability and professional liability. Liabilities associated with the risks that are retained by the Company within its high deductible limits are not discounted and are estimated, in part, by considering claims experience, exposure and severity factors and other actuarial assumptions. The Company has commercial insurance in place for catastrophic claims above its deductible limits. ARM Insurance, Inc., a Vermont-based wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary of the Company, charges the operating subsidiaries premiums to insure the retained workers’ compensation, automobile liability, general liability and professional liability exposures. Pursuant to Vermont insurance regulations, ARM Insurance, Inc. maintains certain levels of cash and cash equivalents related to its self-insurance exposures. The Company also maintains certain cash balances related to its insurance programs, which are held in a self-depleting trust and restricted as to withdrawal or use by the Company other than to pay or settle self-insured claims and costs. These amounts are reflected in “Restricted cash” in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements , provides guidance on the development and disclosure of fair value measurements. Under this accounting guidance, fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The accounting guidance classifies fair value measurements in one of the following three categories for disclosure purposes: Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 prices for similar assets or liabilities that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and values determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Fair value measurements discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. For certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and due to seller, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values as they are short term in nature. The notes payable are presented at their carrying value, which, based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, approximates their fair values. In connection with the acquisition of Ryan Bros. Fort Atkinson, LLC (“Ryan Brothers”), the Company recorded $4,000,000 in contingent consideration to be paid based on the completion of certain performance obligations over a 24-month period. The Company recorded a change in fair value of contingent consideration in the amount of $33,453 and $(159,974) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $86,056 and $(159,974) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company made a payment for the first installment due on the contingent liability in the amount of $1,840,026. The estimated contingent consideration amount payable for Ryan Brothers was $1,907,074 and $1,821,018 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively (see Note 4). In connection with the acquisition of Exceptional Medical Transportation, LLC (“Exceptional”), the Company also agreed to pay up to $2,000,000 in contingent consideration upon meeting certain performance conditions within two years of the closing date of such acquisition. The Company recorded a change in fair value of contingent consideration in the amount of $11,067 and $(13,763) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. The Company did not record a change in fair value of contingent consideration for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company made a payment for the first installment due on the contingent liability in the amount of $426,655. The estimated contingent consideration amount payable for Exceptional was $265,538 and $279,301 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively (see Note 4). In connection with the acquisition of Location Medical Services, LLC (“LMS”), the Company recorded $2,475,540 in contingent consideration to be paid upon LMS meeting certain performance conditions in 2023. The Company did not record a change in fair value of contingent consideration for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The Company made a payment of $600,029 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company did not record any foreign exchange movem ent for the three months ended September 30, 2024, but recorded a foreign exchange movement of $(90,834) for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The Company recorded foreign exchange movements of $(4,798) and $20,730 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively . There was no remaining contingent liability bal ance as of September 30, 2024 and a contingent liability balance of $604,827 as of December 31, 2023 (see Note 4). In connection with the acquisition of Cardiac RMS, LLC (“CRMS”), the Company recorded $15,822,190 in contingent consideration, consisting of an estimated true-up payment of $2,088,243 to be paid in 2024 based on the attainment of full-year 2023 EBIDTA targets (the “True-Up Payment”) and estimated earn out payments amounting to $13,733,947. The earn out payments are to be paid out over 36 months, beginning in 2025, for the remaining 49% equity of CRMS, based on CRMS’ attainment of full-year EBITDA targets. The Company did not record a change in fair value of contingent consideration for the three months ended September 30, 2024, but recorded a change in fair value of contingent consideration in the amount of $298,419 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company did not record a change in fair value of contingent consideration for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. On May 29, 2024, the Company made a portion of the True-up Payment in the amount of $1,000,000. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued $1,814,345 in Common Stock, or 578,350 shares, constituting the remainder of the True-up Payment. The estimated contingent consideration amount payable for CRMS was $14,571,909 and $17,087,835 as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively (see Note 4). Accounts Receivable The Company contracts with hospitals, healthcare facilities, businesses, state and local government entities, and insurance providers to provide Mobile Health Services and Transportation Services at specified rates. These rates are either on a per procedure or per transport basis, or on an hourly or daily basis. Accounts receivable consist of billings for healthcare and transportation services provided to patients. Billings typically are either paid or settled on the patient’s behalf by health insurance providers, managed care organizations, treatment facilities, government sponsored programs or businesses or patients directly. The Company generally does not require collateral for accounts receivable . Accounts receivable are net of insurance provider contractual allowances, which are estimated at the time of billing based on contractual terms or other arrangements. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable, net which is recorded as an offset to accounts receivable, net and changes in this allowance are recorded within general and administrative expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The carrying amount of accounts receivable represents the maximum credit risk exposure of these assets. On a quarterly basis, in accordance with Federal Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 326, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”), the Company evaluates the collectability of outstanding accounts receivable balances to determine an allowance for credit loss that reflects its best estimate of the lifetime expected credit losses. Individual uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance when collection of the individual account does not appear probable. Under the current expected credit loss impairment model, the Company develops and documents its allowance for credit losses on its trade receivables based on a single portfolio segment. The Company assesses collectability by aggregating and reviewing accounts receivable on a collective basis for customers that share similar risk characteristics. Additionally, when accounts receivable do not share risk characteristics with other accounts receivables, management will evaluate such accounts receivable for expected credit loss on an individual specific identification basis when the Company identifies specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. Due to the short-term nature of the Company’s accounts receivables, the estimate of expected credit loss is based on the aging of accounts using an aging schedule as of period ends. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Company considers historical collection history based on past due status, the current aging of receivables, customer-specific credit risk factors including their current financial condition, current market conditions, and probable future economic conditions which inform adjustments to historical loss patterns. As of January 1, 2024, the Company held a beginning balance in its allowance for credit losses on accounts receivable of $6,276,454. The Company recognized an additional provision for credit losses of $3,270,217 and write offs of $(3,090,797) during the year. The Company’s balance in its allowance for credit losses amounted to $6,455,874 as of September 30, 2024. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. When an item is sold or retired, the costs and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are eliminated, and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recorded in operating expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. A summary of estimated useful lives is as follows: Estimated Useful Life Buildings 39 years Office equipment and furniture 3-7 years Vehicles 5-8 years Medical equipment 5 years Leasehold improvements Shorter of useful life of asset or lease term Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that improve an asset or extend its estimated useful life are capitalized. Software Development Costs Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage, maintenance costs and routine updates and enhancements of products are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes software development costs intended for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software . Costs incurred in developing the application of its software and costs incurred to upgrade or enhance product functionalities are capitalized when it is probable that the expenses would result in future economic benefits to the Company and the functionalities and enhancements are used for their intended purpose. Capitalized software costs are amortized over its useful life. Estimated useful life of software development activities are reviewed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that intangible assets may be impaired and adjusted as appropriate to reflect upcoming development activities that may include significant upgrades or enhancements to the existing functionality. Business Combinations The Company accounts for its business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”), which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including noncontrolling interests, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date and any changes in fair value after the acquisition date are accounted for as measurement-period adjustments. Changes in fair value of contingent consideration resulting from events after the acquisition date, such as earn-outs, are recognized as follows: (1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or (2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. For transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase. The Company capitalizes acquisition-related costs and fees associated with asset acquisitions and immediately expenses acquisition-related costs and fees associated with business combinations. The estimated fair value of net assets to be acquired, including the allocation of the fair value to identifiable assets and liabilities, is determined using established valuation techniques. Management uses assumptions based on historical knowledge of the business and projected financial information of the target. These assumptions may vary based on future events, perceptions of different market participants and other factors outside the control of management, and such variations may be significant to estimated values. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates the recoverability of the recorded amount of long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the recorded amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets targeted for disposal are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Goodwill represents the excess of the total purchase consideration over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment at the reporting unit level annually on December 31 or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not to be impaired. These events include: (i) severe adverse industry or economic trends; (ii) significant company-specific actions, including exiting an activity in conjunction with restructuring of operations; (iii) current, historical or projected deterioration of the Company’s financial performance; or (iv) a sustained decrease in the Company’s market capitalization, as indicated by its publicly quoted share price, below its net book value. Line of Credit The costs associated with the Company’s line of credit are deferred and recognized over the term of the line of credit as interest expense. Interest expense on outstanding balances is expensed as incurred. Related Party Transactions The Company defines related parties as affiliates of the Company, entities for which investments are accounted for by the equity method, trusts for the benefit of employees, principal owners (beneficial owners of more than 10% of the voting interest), management, members of immediate families of principal owners or management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence management or the operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Related party transactions are recorded within operating expenses in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). For details regarding the related party transactions that occurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, refer to Note 16. Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). To determine revenue recognition for contractual arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify each contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the relevant performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services the Company provides to the customer. The Company generates revenues from the provision of (1) Mobile Health Services and (2) Transportation Services. Since the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company as the performance obligations are fulfilled, the Company satisfies performance obligations immediately. The Company has utilized the “right to invoice” expedient, which allows an entity to recognize revenue in the amount of consideration to which the entity has the right to invoice when the amount that the Company has the right to invoice corresponds directly to the value transferred to the customer. The transaction price associated with the Company’s contracts with customers is generally determined based on fixed and determinable amounts of consideration as specified in a contract, which includes a fixed base rate and/or fixed mileage rate. For Transportation Services arrangements with billings to third party payors and healthcare facilities, this may also include variable consideration in instances where it is considered probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. For these services, revenues are recorded net of estimated contractual allowances for claims subject to contracts with responsible paying entities. The Company estimates contractual allowance at the time of billing based on contractual terms, historical collections or other arrangements. The Company also estimates the amount unbilled at month end and recognizes such amounts as revenue, based on available data and customer history. The Company utilizes the expected value method when estimating its variable consideration. The assumptions utilized in estimating variable consideration include the Company’s previous experience with similar contracts and history of collection rates on prior trips that have been performed. The Company reevaluates its variable consideration at each reporting period. Nature of the Company’s Services Revenue is primarily derived from: i. Mobile Health Services : These services include a wide variety of healthcare services performed at homes, offices and other locations and event services such as on-site healthcare support at sporting events and concerts. This segment also provides total care management solutions to large, typically underserved population groups, primarily through arrangements w |
