Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2006
Note A – Description of business and basis of presentation
Unaudited Financial Information
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Healthaxis Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Healthaxis” or the "Company"), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries, which, in the opinion of the Company, are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods. The interim financial statements do not include all disclosures provided in fiscal year end financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although the Company believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Results of operations for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005
Earnings Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed using only the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Diluted earnings per share is computed to show the dilutive effect, if any, of convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method based on the average market price of the stock during the respective periods. The effect of including the convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants in the computation of diluted earnings per share would be anti-dilutive for each of the periods presented, thus these items have not been included in the computation. Following is a summary of these potentially dilutive securities:
| As of June 30, | ||||||||
| 2006 | 2005 | |||||||
| Options | 1,299,328 | 1,333,816 | ||||||
| Restricted stock | 201,000 | – | ||||||
| Warrants | 7,229,186 | 7,250,737 | ||||||
| Preferred stock | 2,151,658 | 2,851,658 | ||||||
| Total common shares if converted | 10,881,172 | 11,436,211 | ||||||
In June 2006, 600,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 600,000 shares of Common Stock at the holder’s request. On May 10, 2006, the Company granted 234,000 shares of restricted stock to its directors, officers, and key employees. The restricted stock has been valued at $292,500, which represents the trading value of the stock as quoted on NASDAQ May 10, 2006. The shares of restricted stock granted to directors vest over the calendar year of service and the shares of restricted stock granted to officers and key employees vest according to performance criteria related to Company objectives. The value of directors’ shares that have vested has been reflected as common stock issued and outstanding and recorded as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses with an offsetting amount as deferred stock compensation, which is a component of additional paid in capital. The deferred stock compensation amount related to officers’ and key employees’ shares is recognized when it is deemed probable that the performance criteria will be achieved. Non-cash stock based compensation in the accompanying statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $41,000 related to these grants.

Note B – Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123R), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” which requires companies to use SFAS 123R instead of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25) which allowed companies to measure and record the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on intrinsic value. SFAS 123R requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments (typically stock options) based on grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value is estimated using option-pricing models. The resulting cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, this accounting treatment was optional with pro forma disclosures required.
We adopted SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective transition method. SFAS 123R is effective for all stock options and other awards we grant beginning January 1, 2006 and any stock options or other awards previously granted but that vest in 2006 or in the future. In November 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the acceleration of vesting of all unvested options, the exercise price for which exceeded the then current stock price, thus there is no compensation expense required related to prior stock option grants and no new option grants were made in the first six months of 2006.
The table below summarizes stock option activity pursuant to our plans for the six months ended June 30, 2006:
Number of Shares | Weighted Average Exercise Price | |||||||
| Outstanding at beginning of period | 1,366,843 | $ | 7.95 | |||||
| Granted | – | – | ||||||
| Exercised | – | – | ||||||
| Forfeited | (67,515 | ) | 2.33 | |||||
| Expired | – | – | ||||||
| Outstanding at end of period | 1,299,328 | $ | 8.24 | |||||
| Exercisable at end of period | 1,299,328 | $ | 8.24 | |||||
Shares available for future stock grants to employees and directors under existing plans were 828,483 at June 30, 2006. At June 30, 2006, the exercise price of all outstanding options exceeded the current market price thus there was no intrinsic value of options outstanding or exercisable.
Page 7 of 20
The following table summarizes the range of exercise prices and weighted average remaining contractual life of the options outstanding and the range of exercise prices for the options exercisable at June 30, 2006:
| Outstanding Options | Exercisable Options | ||||||||||||||||
| Exercise Price Range | Number | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life | Weighted Average Exercise Price | Number | Weighted Average Exercise Price | ||||||||||||
| $ 1.72 – 2.25 | 401,750 | 9.01 | $ | 1.92 | 401,750 | $ | 1.92 | ||||||||||
| $ 2.26 – 5.00 | 395,283 | 7.56 | $ | 2.61 | 395,283 | $ | 2.61 | ||||||||||
| $ 5.01 – 10.00 | 234,310 | 3.72 | $ | 8.21 | 234,310 | $ | 8.21 | ||||||||||
| $ 10.00 – 87.50 | 267,985 | 1.70 | $ | 26.03 | 267,985 | $ | 26.03 | ||||||||||
The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net loss and loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, had we applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-based Compensation” (table in thousands, except per share data):
| 2005 | ||||||||
| Three Months | Six Months | |||||||
| Net loss, as reported | $ | (325 | ) | $ | (1,283 | ) | ||
| Pro forma stock based compensation expense computed | ||||||||
| under the fair value method | (168 | ) | (223 | ) | ||||
| Pro forma net loss | $ | (493 | ) | $ | (1,506 | ) | ||
| Loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted | ` | |||||||
| as reported | $ | (0.07 | ) | $ | (0.30 | ) | ||
| Pro forma | $ | (0.10 | ) | $ | (0.35 | ) | ||
The Company granted 329,000 options in the second quarter of 2005. The fair value of the options granted are estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The major assumptions used include no dividends paid, a weighted average expected life of 2.8 years, expected stock volatility of 69% and risk free interest rates of 3.71%. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during 2005 was $0.80.
Note C – Post Retirement Benefits
Healthaxis has an obligation to provide certain post retirement benefits, primarily lifetime health, dental and life insurance coverage, to a group of individuals consisting of three former executives and 17 retired employees of Provident American Corporation, which became Healthaxis. The following table sets forth the components of net post-retirement benefit expense for all plans:

Note E – Other Liabilities and Contingencies
Other liabilities include $324,000 of contingent tax liabilities at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
Note F – Related Party Transactions
As described in our 2005 Form 10-K, the Company entered into a five year Remote Resourcing Agreement with Healthcare BPO Partners L.P., a company affiliated with Tak Investments and owned by Mr. Tak. Healthcare BPO Partners, based in Jaipur, India, provides personnel and infrastructure that is utilized by the Company to provide business process outsourcing services and other software development and technical support services to support the Company’s operations. The resources provided by Healthcare BPO Partners supplement the Company’s existing wholly-owned operations in Utah, Texas and Jamaica. As a part of the Resourcing Agreement, Healthcare BPO Partners also provides data center hosting services, at a Vienna Virginia facility, to Healthaxis.

Overview
Healthaxis Inc. is a Pennsylvania corporation, which was organized in 1982. Healthaxis’ common stock trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “HAXS.” The operations of Healthaxis are conducted through its subsidiary, Healthaxis, Ltd. Unless otherwise indicated, or the context otherwise requires, all references in this document to the “Company,” “Healthaxis,” “we,” “our” or “us” include Healthaxis Inc. and all of its subsidiaries. Healthaxis maintains a website at www.healthaxis.com. The Healthaxis Code of Conduct can be found on the Healthaxis website. Information found on the Healthaxis website is not a part of this report.
The Company reported revenue of $4.1 million and an operating loss of $246,000 in the second quarter of 2006. Revenue was approximately $103,000 more than the second quarter of 2005, and more importantly, it showed sequential improvement of approximately $196,000 as compared the first quarter of 2006 and improvement of approximately $389,000 from the fourth quarter of 2005. The operating loss for the second quarter of 2006 improved approximately $194,000 as compared to the first quarter of 2006. Management believes that because the Company provides an ASP service which generates revenue based on a subscription of per-employee-per-month charges, these sequential comparisons are as meaningful as comparisons to the prior year. Comparisons between the current and prior year’s operating loss understate the magnitude of the improvement in the financial condition of the Company because financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 include the net $479,000 benefit of two non-recurring events: a) the Company was able to gain from the reversal of a $979,000 contingent tax liability and b) the Company recorded a $500,000 lease abandonment charge related to moving the headquarters office. As evidenced by the financial results for the second quarter of 2006, the Company is closer to completing its profitability objective.
Other important points include:
| o | The Company continues its large-scale customer implementation that has already added a significant number of revenue-generating lives to our systems. In addition, we have added new customers and we have renewed contracts with a number of existing customers. Due to the subscription nature of our business, these customer wins do not immediately impact the operating results, but are expected to provide additional revenue in future periods. Due to the sensitive nature of system changes within our customers’ client bases, new customers often request that we do not announce the change. There is a perception in our industry that any significant implementation or conversion might result in significant disruption to the customer and the clients it serves, thus many new Healthaxis customers do not want us to announce that they are migrating systems. |
Page 10 of 20
| o | In July 2006, we announced the expansion of our Ultimate TPA(TM) Solution. The Ultimate TPA Solution is Healthaxis’ unique combination of technology and BPO services that help TPA’s gain operational efficiency and reduce costs. The packaged suite of technology and services is offered as a turnkey solution that benefits smaller to midsize organizations the most. The Ultimate TPA enables growth minded organizations to pursue their expansion objectives with both minimal capital and infrastructure investment, and affordable ongoing costs. |
| o | During June and July of 2006, two of our preferred shareholders converted approximately 2 million shares of their preferred stock into common stock. Some of these shares were immediately sold in privately negotiated transactions at a price less than the exchange quoted market price. As a result, as of August 4, 2006, we had outstanding 8,133,112 shares of common stock and 740,401 shares of preferred stock. |
| o | Effective July 31, 2006, the Company extended its note payable to HealthMarkets (formerly known as UICI). Under the prior promissory note, a balance of approximately $1.5 million would have been due at its maturity date of September 30, 2006. Under the renewal promissory note, Healthaxis will pay HealthMarkets $500,000 by August 31, 2006 and continue tomake monthly payments equal to the greater of $65,000 or one-half of the monthly invoice amount for services rendered to an affliate of HealthMarkets. A final installment in the amount of all outstanding principal plus accrued interest is due and payable February 1, 2008. |
| o | The Company is in the late stages of securing working capital and equipment lines of credit that will expand our available liquidity and strengthen our financial condition to support continuing growth. We are confident that we will complete the working capital financing, however, until such financing is in place, there is always the possibility that it will not be completed. |
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those which are most important to the financial statement presentation and that require the most difficult, subjective complex judgments. As described in Note B to the financial statements, the Company adopted SFAS 123R in the first quarter of 2006. There have been no other changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies as described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Revenues were approximately $103,000 (3%) higher in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Professional Services revenue declined $128,000 because significant work performed in the current period was focused on a significant implementation, and thus the related revenue is deferred. Deferred revenues increased $278,000 during the second quarter of 2006. In the prior year, we worked on several projects that were billable and could be recognized as revenue as services were performed. Transaction fees were up approximately 8% and license fees were up approximately 4% due to increases in lives and transactions, primarily from the ongoing implementation. Data Capture revenue was up approximately 9% as volume from new customers and groups offset a) a decrease in transactions from existing customers and b) the continuing trend towards a higher volume of electronic claims.
Cost of revenues includes all expenses directly associated with the production of revenue, and consists primarily of salaries and related benefits, rent, amortization and depreciation, system expenses such as maintenance and repair, as well as other related consumables. Cost of revenues declined $287,000 (8%) in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Cost of revenues was 83% of revenues in the 2006 period compared to 92% in the 2005 period. The decrease in cost consisted of approximately a) $140,000 reduction related to facilities costs from the June 2005 headquarters office move, b) $271,000 in increased capitalizable costs due to 2006 implementation and development projects, and c) $92,000 in lower depreciation and amortization expense as equipment and prior capitalized costs became fully amortized, partially offset by d) $126,000 higher personnel and contractor costs resulting from implementation costs of the significant new customer and e) $80,000 increased fees to an outside third party related to processing transactions and directly attributable to the increase in transaction fee revenue.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee salaries and related benefits, as well as promotional costs such as direct mailing campaigns, trade shows and media advertising. Sales and marketing expenses increased $65,000 (26%) in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same quarter of 2005. This increase was due to higher personnel costs and the related increase in benefits and travel related to changes in the sales and marketing team over the past year.
General and administrative expenses include executive management, accounting, legal and human resources compensation and related benefits, as well as expenditures for applicable overhead costs. These expenses decreased $181,000 (22%) in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same quarter of 2005. The majority of the decrease is attributable to the reduction in facilities costs and related property taxes as described above partially offset by a non-cash equity compensation charge of $41,000 resulting from the vesting of restricted stock granted to members of the board of directors.
Reversal of contingent tax liability of $979,000 was recorded as a credit to the Statement of Operations in the three months ended June 30, 2005. This was a result of the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations period in the second quarter 2005. There was no such credit for 2006.

Lease abandonment charge consists of expenses related to the Company’s former headquarters, which was abandoned in favor of a new office lease in June 2005. The $500,000 charge in the three months ended June 30, 2005 includes relocation costs incurred to that point and the write-off of certain assets abandoned in the move, plus an accrual for the future rent and certain rent related obligations of the former headquarters. There was no such charge in 2006.
Interest and other income, net increased $7,000 (35%) in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same quarter of 2005 due primarily to higher balances of cash resulting from the 2005 sale of common stock and an increase in interest rates.
Interest expense decreased $25,000 (35%) in the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same quarter of 2005. Interest accrued on the note payable to UICI was lower due to the declining principal balance.

Revenues were approximately $105,000 (1%) lower in the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. Professional Services revenue declined $311,000 because significant work performed in the current period was focused on a significant implementation, and thus the related revenue is deferred. Deferred revenues increased $647,000 during the first six months of 2006. In the prior year, we worked on several projects that were billable and could be recognized as revenue as services were performed. Transaction fees and license fees were each up slightly due to increases in lives and transactions, primarily due to the ongoing implementation but partially offset by existing customers that have lost business. Data Capture revenue was up slightly as volume from new customers and groups offset a) a decrease in transactions from existing customers and b) the continuing trend towards a higher volume of electronic claims.
Cost of revenues declined $1.0 million (13%) in the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview of Cash Resources
At June 30, 2006, our cash and cash equivalents amounted to $2.8 million compared to $4.7 million at December 31, 2005. The sources and uses of cash during the first half of 2006 are described more fully in “Analysis of Cash Flows” below. We believe that the Company will maintain sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. As discussed in our 2005 Form 10-K, the Company has a note payable
Page 14 of 20
to UICI, the balance of which is approximately $1.7 million as of June 30, 2006. Effective July 31, 2006, the Company successfully extended the note payable to HealthMarkets (formerly known as UICI). Under the prior promissory note, a balance of approximately $1.5 million would have been due at its maturity date of September 30, 2006. Under the renewal promissory note, Healthaxis will pay HealthMarkets $500,000 by August 31, 2006 and continue to make monthly payments equal to the greater of $65,000 or one-half of the monthly invoice amount for services rendered to an affliate of HealthMarkets. A final installment in the amount of all outstanding principal plus accrued interest is due and payable February 1, 2008. The Company is in the late stages of securing working capital and equipment lines of credit that will expand our available liquidity and strengthen our financial condition to support continuing growth. We are confident that we will complete the working capital financing, however, until such financing is in place, there is always the possibility that it will not be completed.
As part of a contract executed in the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company is expending substantial resources, in the form of both human and capital expenditures, during the implementation phase of a significant customer contract which is expected to continue for as long as the next 9 months. As a result, the Company expects a continued negative short-term impact on cash flow until deferred collection provisions present in the contract are fulfilled. The Company has already realized additional revenue and margin from the portion of the business that has been implemented and expects the revenue and margin impact to further increase as the implementation continues. The Company does not believe that the short-term impact of this project implementation will impact the Company’s ability to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least the next 12 months. The implementation effort and terms of this agreement are typical for Healthaxis’ contracts of this scope and nature.
Analysis of Cash Flows
Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was approximately $700,000 as compared to $1.4 million for the same period in 2005. The improvement was primarily the result of the reduced net loss in 2006 and the aforementioned 2005 reversal of contingent tax liability partially offset by a net negative change in various working capital accounts, primarily accounts receivable and deferred revenues. Changes in working capital accounted for a $550,000 use of cash in the 2006 period as opposed to a $18,000 source of cash for the comparable period in 2005. Though it creates a short-term negative impact on cash flows from operations, we view the increase in accounts receivable and deferred revenues as a positive leading indicator since the increase in accounts receivable results from the increase in revenue and the increase in deferred revenues will result in higher recognized revenue in future periods.
Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $1.2 million as compared to $357,000 for the same period in 2005. The Company’s investing activities continue to be primarily in the areas of developing software enhancements, contract start-up activities and acquisition of property, equipment and software, with most of the increase resulting from capitalized start up costs tied to the largest of the ongoing implementations.
Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $19,000 related to the cost to register shares previously sold to Tak Investments, while cash from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $4.3 million as a result of proceeds from the Tak financing transaction.

See Note B to the Consolidated Financial Statements herein for a discussion of the impact on the Company’s financial statements of new accounting standards.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to short-term investments. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments. The primary objective of its investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. Due to the nature of the Company’s investments, we believe that there is no material risk exposure.
Our cash equivalents and other investment instruments are exposed to financial market risk due to fluctuation in interest rates, which may affect our interest income. These instruments are not entered into for trading purposes. We do not expect our interest income to be significantly affected by a sudden change in market interest rates.
The dividend rate on our preferred stock is fixed at a nominal rate of $0.0001 per share of the new preferred stock, payable semi-annually (aggregating less than $1,000 in dividend payments to all preferred shareholders annually). The interest rate on our note payable is fixed at 6%. The fair value of these instruments is therefore subject to market fluctuation as interest rates change.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
