PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview
Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “we”, “us”, “our”, “RGHS” or the “Company”) is a medical software company focused on utilizing clinical reasoning through artificial intelligence to advance excellence in patient care. Our vision is to provide the clinical medicine industry leading software solutions to expand the access of health information and multiply the reach of medical professionals. Our goal is to improve safety and documentation of decisions, save healthcare dollars and manage more patients using techniques that do not disrupt present systems.
We have developed and offer a global healthcare software solution using mobile technology, personal computers and the web to interface with our proprietary RHealth Advisor™ software. RHealth Advisor is an intelligent and intuitive clinical reasoning program providing inferences and argumentation from patient data and a proprietary medical database to aid in forming logical evidence-based conclusions that can be employed by a wide range of users to lower costs, manage more patients and improve outcomes. We believe that our RHealth Advisor software is the only global medical software solution that provides evidence-based medical advice to save lives and expand the reach of care while reducing costs through faster, more accurate and effective diagnosis, treatment, adherence and monitoring. We believe this is contrary to the standard, data collection, clinical decision support, chronic disease management and follow-up programs in the healthcare market today. Traditionally we believe other technologies are ineffective in providing care and educating patients and increase costs rather than lowering the healthcare cost curve.
During 2012, we filed for patent coverage to enhance the competitive position of our sophisticated clinical reasoning and proprietary database focusing on applications for pre-admission screening, predictive medicine, diagnostic support and chronic disease management and treatment adherence. We believe we positively impact healthcare providers, third-party payers and patients demonstrating specific outcomes with meaningful return on investment. With the increased political attention on healthcare and demands to provide more care at less cost, our strategy in the U.S. is focused primarily on payers – insurers where we are pursuing collaborations to provide our solutions for a variety of applications.
Our strategy is to access existing marketing and distribution channels through licensing. We are able to customize our software solutions to best fit the needs of our partners in local markets and to fit user needs. Our strategy in developing and emerging countries, in conjunction with existing and planned strategic and collaboration partners, is to work with governments, non-governmental organizations and health industry leaders to provide a solution that will decrease costs, expand the reach of health professionals, and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of overburdened rural clinics and hospitals. Commencing in mid-2011, working with distributer Montana Healthcare Solutions (Pty) Ltd., we entered the South Africa market. In July 2012 RHealth Advisor was approved for commercial release by the Health Professions Counsel of South Africa, a South African healthcare regulatory oversight organization (much like our FDA). We are working with Montana Health on a variety of market efforts in South Africa and are pursuing relationships in other developing and emerging countries. So far this strategy has not been successful in generating revenues.

We are organized to generate revenue by licensing our software platform and modules. License and revenue agreements with collaboration partners and affiliated companies have not yet generated significant revenue for us, but provide the foundation for RHealth Advisor’s commercialization. We expect future license fees to be (a) subscription based or transaction based to vary depending on the RHealth Advisor applications used and the market profile of each prospective customer and/or (b) result from advertising and sponsorships. Implementation may include a setup fee with respect to the applications and potential integration needs of customers.

We believe that our software solution offers many benefits that are not currently available from other software providers. We have patents pending on our computer implemented process, which will be helpful as we attempt to enter into licensing agreements. However, we have been unsuccessful thus far in generating revenues from the sale of the software solution. The Company’s financial future remains uncertain, as we are in default on some obligations. We have, however, been successful in paying some obligations over the past year.
The Healthcare Information Systems Industry
Recent decisions by health care industry participants have been influenced by political events and we expect future decisions will be significantly impacted by recently enacted federal laws.
The Obama Administration is emphasizing global health in its diplomacy and development work around the world. Through the Global Health Initiative (“GHI”), the U.S. government is pursuing a comprehensive whole-of-government approach to global health. The GHI promotes a new business model to deliver its dual objectives of achieving significant health improvements and creating an effective, efficient and country-led platform for the sustainable delivery of essential health care and public health programs. Similarly, many international organizations including the World Health Organization (“WHO”) and private foundations are working to address the need for trained healthcare workers in under-resourced areas. They are working to support new tools, such as ours, embracing the ability of technology to meet the burgeoning need for quality healthcare. Innovative technology utilizing RHealth Advisor supports efforts to meet several of the UN Millennium Development Goals such as improving maternal/child health, combating HIV/AIDs and supporting other national health programs. We see significant worldwide opportunities for our software solutions and have positioned our solutions for the worldwide health information market.
Of specific importance to near term investment is the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (“ARRA”), which became effective in 2009. This Act includes more than $38 billion of incentives to help healthcare organizations modernize operations through the acquisition and use of information technology solutions. A part of ARRA designated the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (the “HITECH Act”) provides for roughly $2 billion in ‘jump start’ funding that the Department of Health and Human Services is to distribute over a two-year time frame that began in 2011. ARRA also includes approximately $17 billion in Medicare and Medicaid incentives targeting the ‘meaningful use’ of health record systems, systems interoperability, and the submission of data related to quality improvement initiatives.
The government spending is intended to reduce inefficiencies and improve patient care through the use of technologies. ARRA, and specifically the HITECH Act, increases the pressure on hospitals and care providing institutions to adopt technology. The HITECH Act provides funding for facilities to launch improvement projects associated with the ‘meaningful use’ of key information technologies. Qualifying hospitals can receive payments over a period of approximately four or five years beginning in 2011 based on their use of certified health information technology systems. The HITECH Act also provides financial penalties to hospitals by reducing Medicare reimbursement payments for hospitals that do not comply with certain usage requirements by 2015.
We are primarily targeting collaborations, alliances and customers that could benefit from the increased government spending rather than applying for direct government resources. While there is no assurance these acts and regulations will continue as planned or we can benefit therefrom, we believe there is significant momentum driving technology innovation across a broad spectrum of healthcare. Competition in the market for information and patient care systems is intense, and increased government spending may entice more companies to enter the marketplace.

Our Technology
Development and Description
Our founder, Dr. Joel Robertson, recognized that the lack of global resources and funding limitations would require innovative technology to provide a global medical solution to improve diagnostics and treatment to save lives and reduce costs. We are dedicated to improving global healthcare through intelligent, cost-effective innovative technology.
RHealth Advisor leverages two distinct technology components in a seamless multi-platform approach for healthcare triage, diagnosis, treatment and education. These two “platform enabling” components are our NxOpinion Inference Engine (“NxOpinion”) and our Medical Knowledge Management System (“NxKM”), which together power RHealth Advisor.
The NxOpinion engine powering our solution employs multi-phasic engines - a proprietary architecture that uses powerful predictive, probability and inquiry modules to create a diagnostic system. Our engine architecture has been honored by Microsoft as a breakthrough in software artificial intelligence. Operating on Microsoft’s agile .NET software development framework, NxOpinion is programmed to correlate the different pieces of available medical evidence entered in the system, compare them to disease profiles stored in NxKM and use the weightings assigned to each piece of information to generate a differential diagnosis - a list of potential disease candidates.
Both NxOpinion and NxKM were developed over a ten-year span of intensive research and input from physicians, allied health professionals and medical informatics specialists. We correlate NxKM with different pieces of available medical evidence to generate a probability weighted and relevant diagnosis that is kept up-to-date. Studies in the United States, India and the Dominican Republic, which are described in more detail below, have verified the diagnostic accuracy of our solution compared with trained physicians and have also documented that physicians improved their diagnostic accuracy using our solution.
Stage of Product Development
Our core applications are developed and operational. We continue to enhance our applications and expand our knowledge database to include new diseases and medical information. Our easy-to-use RHealth Advisor Mobile Web application, available on a variety of mobile phones, provides convenient and innovative access to evidence-based health advice. RHealth Advisor Mobile Web takes advantage of the advanced web browser capabilities of tablet and smart phone platforms such as iPhone, Android, Blackberry, and Windows Phone 7, while at the same time remaining accessible to lower-end feature phones with less capable browsers and small form factors.
While we continue to add to our medical knowledge database, adapt our technology to operate with additional mobile platforms, expand our ability to interface and communicate with other devices and systems, add languages and regional disease information and scale our software to work with large user populations, we are actively marketing our software to collaboration partners and customers and are working on various development, partner and pilot projects in various regions of the world. While our projects have not generated significant revenue to date, we expect revenue in fiscal 2013 from existing and new relationships.
Comparison to Other Solutions
RHealth Advisor is a clinical reasoning tool that is targeted at broad global applications. We believe it is differentiated from other software or web-based symptom checkers and physician reference tools as described in the following table (also see “Competition”):

Technology Ownership/Licensing
NxOpinion and NxKM (our "Database Engines") were developed by Dr. Robertson and entities owned or controlled by him prior to the formation and existence of Robertson Health Services, Inc. (“RHS”) (formerly NxOpinion, LLC). In 2005, Dr. Robertson assigned the Database Engines and other intellectual property to an intellectual property holding company called Vanahab, LLC ("Vanahab"). Vanahab is owned by Dr. Robertson and his wife, Vickie Robertson.
RHS was formed on April 7, 2005 to create data populations for use with the Database Engines and to further develop and commercialize the RHealth Advisor solution. RHS held a license to use RHealth Advisor from Vanahab. The license agreement provided that Vanahab would own all improvements to the Database Engines. Since 2005, RHS’s major contribution to RHealth Advisor has been the gathering and creation of data sets for use with the Database Engines. All data gathered by RHS for use with RHealth Advisor is owned by RHS, subject to any limitations contained in the license and/or service agreement with the client that commissioned the gathering of the data.
Certain components of the Database Engines, related primarily to the proprietary multiple engine architecture, were funded by the Robertson Research Institute ("RRI"), a Colorado nonprofit corporation, and a public charity as defined in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. RRI had a license agreement with Vanahab for use of the technology. Dr. Robertson and his family members Vickie Robertson, Nicole Decker, Marcus Decker, Heidi Robertson and Brooke Roff are trustees of RRI, among other unrelated persons.
6
In May 2010, RHS amended and restated the terms of its license agreement for the Database Engines from Vanahab. RRI has also agreed to amend its license agreement with Vanahab to curtail its rights in relation to those of RHS. All technology related to the RHealth Advisor was transferred from Vanahab to Vanahab Health Diagnostics, LLC ("Vanahab Health Diagnostics"), a Nevada limited liability company that is wholly-owned by Vanahab. RHS entered into an Amended and Restated License Agreement with Vanahab Health Diagnostics dated May 8, 2010 (the "Amended License Agreement"). The Amended License Agreement includes multiple license grants that allow for use of the Database Engines, limited sublicensing of the Database Engines, and the ability to modify and improve the Database Engines. Each license grant is perpetual and royalty-free; however, in exchange for the overall Amended License Agreement, RHS pays an annual royalty of $10,000 (due in quarterly installments). It is expected that RHS will pay the annual royalty primarily or exclusively "in-kind" by the provision of certain services to Vanahab Health Diagnostics.
The license grants in the Amended License Agreement are nonexclusive, but RHS has certain rights to prevent the technology from being licensed to other parties. Specifically, RHS must consent in writing to any additional license grants by Vanahab of the technology to any parties other than RRI. RRI and RHS each have the right to sublicense the technology to customers. Potential customers and projects are divided among RRI and RHS as follows: RHS has the priority right to sublicense the technology to potential clients over RRI unless 1) the customer dictates that the license must run through RRI due to its non-profit status and the customer is a nonprofit institution, company, foundation, association or other charitable entity requesting a project having a geographic scope substantially within (a) a UN Millennium Development Goal Country, or (b) any country wherein the majority of its medical funding is provided by international sources, or 2) RRI and RHS mutually agree, taking into consideration applicable facts and circumstances and with recusal of interested persons, that such customer and/or project be allocated to RRI.
RHS organized a wholly-owned subsidiary, Robertson Technologies Licensing, LLC ("RTL"), a Nevada limited liability company, to be the master licensor for its activities. RHS is the sole member of RTL. RTL enters into license agreements, such as the recent collaboration agreement with Microsoft Corporation, at the direction of its parent. Instances are likely to arise where a customer requests that technologies owned by entities other than RHS be bundled with RHealth Advisor or when it requires services from more than one entity, such as from RHS and RRI. In those instances, RTL may bundle those technologies or services on a contract basis. RTL will interface on behalf of RHS and its technology partners to provide the required services and technologies to the customers. RTL would then apportion revenues among the participating entities in accordance with their contractual relationship. Due to the likelihood that RRI may be requested to bundle technologies and services from entities such as RRI and Robertson Wellness, LLC, in which Dr. Robertson has an interest ("Robertson Entities"), with those of RHS, the potential for conflicts of interest exists. We anticipate that Dr. Robertson will recuse himself from negotiations among RHS and Robertson Entities. Furthermore, transactions between RHS and Robertson Entities will be entered into only upon terms that are as favorable to RHS as could be obtained from unrelated third-parties through "arm's length" negotiations.
Development Costs
Company personnel devoted approximately 1,900 hours and 9,300 hours on research and development activities during the fiscal years ending September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Customers bore the cost of approximately 300 of these hours during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011; customers did not bear the cost of any of these hours during the year ending September 30, 2012. We expensed $259,543 and $1,004,352 on product and content development during the fiscal years ending September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Market Overview and Opportunity
We believe the global market for RHealth Advisor is significant. Whether used as a mobile health diagnostic and screening tool by rural health workers in remote areas of the developing world or as a screening, diagnosis and record-keeping tool as a part of a developed nation’s national health program, if we are able to develop the market and acquire customers, we believe our software technology can greatly improve the effectiveness and delivery of health services worldwide. So far we have been unsuccessful in capitalizing on this market. However, we are currently having discussions within this market, which, if successful, would allow us to quickly enter the market.
We categorize our prospective customers into three major markets – Developing Countries, Emerging Markets, and Mature Markets. In the horizontal segments within these markets RHealth Advisor offers significant utility. The offering to each market is as follows:
· | Developing Countries – assist health care workers to extend medical intervention where there is limited or no availability of physicians. |
· | Emerging Markets – to improve effectiveness in determining diagnoses and establishing standardized treatment regimens. |
· | Mature Markets – to drive efficiency into the healthcare system, reducing costs and improving treatment adherence. |
7
We target horizontal segment uses in these markets including:
· | Customer Segment |
· | Consumers – for pre-screening, chronic disease management and treatment adherence |
· | Hospital Systems and Patient Care Facilities – to increase throughput and efficiency, for triage and treatment management |
· | Clinics and Physician Groups - for triage and treatment management |
· | National Health Programs – for pre-screening and chronic disease treatment management |
· | Non-Government Organizations – to identify health trends, disease eradication and data storage |
· | Strategic Partners, Collaborators and Integrators |
· | Insurance Carriers – for pre-screening and test validation |
· | Pharmaceutical Research – accumulate compound and outcomes data analysis |
· | Government Organizations – to identify health trends and delivery enhancements |
· | Electronic Health Record Providers – for repository storage of medical records and linking to treatment and treatment management |
· | Device Industry Partners – with hardware for field data capture |
· | Third Party Service Providers – to assist in process management to increase efficiency and accuracy |
· | Technology Partners – for integration of services |
· | Regional Distributors – to centralize and standardize product and service offerings |
End users that we target to employ our software in a variety of devices include consumers, nurses, assistants and a range of healthcare industry workers. The goal is to increase accuracy of diagnosis and treatment services, increase throughput and efficiency of patient care, reduce duplication and provide treatment response tracking. We expect to license our software solutions to such end users generally through the types of strategic partners, collaborators and integrators listed above.
Developing and emerging countries lack sufficient medical personnel, facilities and resources to meet the demand for healthcare. Trained healthcare workers are not available in areas where they are needed most. Our tools dramatically improve the ability of minimally trained health workers to provide a much higher level of care with confidence and accuracy.
Developed nations also face increasing and intense pressure to reduce the cost of healthcare services while maintaining a high quality of care. Through the innovative use of near real-time decision support technology we expand access to reliable health diagnosis and provide accurate triage, thus utilizing the minimum healthcare resources necessary and allowing only those with critical needs to be referred upward through the medical treatment system. We help guide appropriate treatment protocols at the proper level, whether it be the consumer, a local healthcare worker, a physician, a hospital or specialist. We believe our tools can contribute to lower costs and improved quality of care.
With access to mobile phones and the Internet, consumers are assuming more of their healthcare decision making while facing increased costs, as businesses and governments attempt to manage the delivery of services. Existing tools are inadequate as they lack the ability to interpret data, and are unable to ask the user for additional information in order to deliver a statistically relevant diagnosis and treatment plan.
Misdiagnosis remains a common medical mistake. Despite the risks, misdiagnosis is still rarely studied. However, a 1997 survey conducted by the National Patient Safety Foundation found that even in non-ICU/ER situations there is anywhere from 8-40% chance of misdiagnosis. An Institute of Medicine (IOM) report in 2000 estimated that up to 98,000 deaths occur annually in the United States (U.S.) from medical errors, placing medical errors in the top ten causes of death in the U.S. In addition, it is estimated that over $37 billion is spent annually for treatment of medical errors of which $17 billion is preventable. Key contributing factors to misdiagnosis include lack of readily available and current medical information, inexperience in diagnosing disease systems outside one’s specialty, inexperience in recognizing potential treatment interactions, or an inability to gather enough facts and symptoms to make an accurate diagnosis. Our tools help prevent medical errors by providing a timely solution to avoid these common points of error.

We target our solution to the global marketplace knowing that our solution can be utilized to assist in delivering healthcare to a target market consisting of billions of people worldwide. As an indication of the breadth and diversity of our target applications consider the following illustrations:
· | Millions of rural healthcare workers are needed to serve more than 2.5 billion people in the developing and emerging countries of Asia, Africa and South America. India alone is seeking to train 250,000 first level workers to improve access to healthcare to over 500 million people. The funding for technology in these areas comes from governments and charitable organizations and we plan to support these efforts globally. Consumers in these markets are prime candidates for targeted marketing by pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies that seek an efficient and cost-effective method to target customers requiring their products. We believe that traditional advertising is ineffective in these markets. Through mobile phones we can deliver targeted information to people in need of healthcare services. |
· | Through collaborations with other companies, such as Montana Healthcare Solutions, we expect to participate in a substantial developing market to allow individuals to manage their health information and associate with providers to more effectively manage their care. The goal of the governments in these emerging countries is to use technology to reduce costs while improving care, as well as having the ability to collect and store data that can be used for public health planning. We offer several modules, with our data collection and diagnostic information typically being the main offerings for joint marketing with partners. The population in the countries initially being targeted in this partnership exceeds 200 million. |
· | We enrich the quality and relevance of health information that may be delivered to consumers, physicians and other healthcare professionals, employers and health plans. Unlike traditional delivery methods such as WebMD, we offer the ability to interact with a knowledge management system to create a diagnosis based on relevant data. Whether as a stand-alone website or as an engine powering the offerings of other sites, we believe we have an important role in supercharging the health information marketplace. |
Our unique data interpretation capability solves the most difficult aspect of getting a correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Instead of just assembling facts, we take facts and use them to create diagnoses and treatments based on user inputs. We prompt users to enter relevant information necessary to confirm a diagnosis and guide treatment. Our solution has applications in large markets including:
· | The 30,000 hospitals in the U.S. and many more worldwide that are candidates for case management and clinical decision tracking which can benefit from our other modules. Many are being required to upgrade health information systems to meet new regulations and are seeking cost-effective tools, such as ours, to reduce the incidence of misdiagnosis and minimize unnecessary tests or procedures. |
· | Practicing physicians and clinics that wish to check or confirm diagnoses thus reducing misdiagnosis error rates and minimize unnecessary tests or procedures. There are over 600,000 physicians and surgeons in the U.S. alone and many more worldwide. |
· | As a tool for medical training and education. Our system can become an integral part of medical student training, allowing students to quickly access information and self-check their diagnoses. We believe our solution can be an invaluable tool to help medical students learn the next question to ask in order to complete an accurate diagnosis. |
· | Benefit managers who work to optimize care by identifying best practices and reducing unnecessary procedures. |
Our Strategy and Collaborations
Strategy
Our mission is to save lives and improve quality of life through our innovative health information technology. Our mission is based on our founder’s vision of a truly global medical solution used to save lives through faster, more accurate diagnosis and treatment. Our strategy is to partner with major organizations in the healthcare and technology fields to provide our software solution for use around the world. Much of our marketing has been done through strategic business contacts, collaborations and prospective integrators.
9
Our strategy in mature markets, initially the United States, is focused primarily on payers – insurers where we are pursuing collaborations to provide our patent pending solutions in a variety of applications. We are targeting collaborations to leverage our sophisticated clinical reasoning and proprietary database focusing on applications for pre-admission screening, predictive medicine, diagnostic support and chronic disease management and treatment adherence.
Our strategy in developing and emerging countries is to use our solution to improve healthcare efficiency and delivery. We plan to do this through a flexible system that allows some of our efforts to be charitable, others at or near cost and others to be for-profit endeavors.
We have a product distribution agreement with Montana Healthcare Solutions (Pty) Ltd., a South Africa company, whereupon Montana Health has limited rights to sell/market products/services on our behalf. We have agreed to pay to Montana Health a portion of the sales proceeds for marketing/sales and support services to be determined on a project-by-project basis. We are working towards and anticipate developing other similar relationships wherein these companies work with us to sell and market our products and services worldwide.
Our affiliation with the Robertson Research Institute (“RRI”), a 501(c)(3) public charity, is important for several reasons. We are affiliated with RRI for technology and common management which has been important in the development of our healthcare solution. It is equally important in the future because it allows us options to pursue a range of partnerships combining government, charity and for-profit entities in developing and emerging areas of the world.
The key element of our business strategy is to build on existing collaborative arrangements and develop new collaborative relationships throughout the developing, emerging and developed regions of the world. We expect to continue to enhance the capabilities of our solutions and expand our medical database.
Entering into 2013, we are seeking collaboration and integration partners in the United States and other developed markets to demonstrate our ability to assist in reducing healthcare costs, improving quality of care, and increasing productivity. Future alliances and collaborations for our applications may extend all the way from the consumer and healthcare provide to the healthcare payer.
Collaborations and Integrations
The first stage of collaborations and integrations included projects in India, Kenya, Dominican Republic, and South Africa that tested and we believe validated RHealth Advisor’s innovative applications.
In 2004 and 2005, we worked with Microsoft Research to complete an RHealth Advisor pilot study in the Dominican Republic to assess the use of an artificial intelligence physician extender software system in regions of high poverty. The resulting success we believe evidenced our ability to fit within physician workflow systems, and usability in remote areas.
Under a 2009 contract grant we worked with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to conduct a usability and accuracy pre-admission screening study of RHealth Advisor. In collaboration with the Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences and Central Michigan University Research Corporation a study was completed to evaluate if Multi-Purpose Health Assistants (“MPHAs”) using RHealth Advisor significantly outperform the diagnostic capabilities of MPHAs without RHealth Advisor. We believe the results evidenced our ability to improve efficiency and effectiveness of MPHAs within a rural health center setting with minimally trained professionals (physician extenders).
Under an August 2009 collaboration contract with Microsoft’s Unlimited Potential Group (“UPG”), we ported our consumer diagnostic software to deploy on Microsoft’s OneApp™ platform enabling feature phones in emerging markets to access mobile applications. This project was also in collaboration with NetHope and CARE. The goal of this collaboration was to determine if a basic cell phone could perform health screening in remote areas with our solution. We have also developed a WAP (wireless application protocol) based application of RHealth Advisor for use outside of OneApp, which we have named RHealth Advisor Mobile Web. This solution, which was expanded to include diagnostics in addition to data collection, is targeted for remote and emerging markets desperately needing health information and data collection.
10
Under a 2010 grant from Johnson & Johnson Company, managed by the Grameen Foundation, we were selected on a consulting basis to customize and port our consumer diagnostic engine and patient monitoring/compliance module to a mobile phone. The first pilot project in India was designed to help manage HIV patients and enhance their treatment compliance. This project served as a proof of concept to show RHealth Advisor’s ability to tailor into a specific disease management program.
In 2010, in collaboration with Intel’s World Ahead Program, we collaborated with a “ruggedized laptop” hardware and software solution targeting India. The aim was to provide the electronification of healthcare to provide quality healthcare access for rural citizens and reduce crowding in urban hospitals. We believe this collaboration demonstrated a proof of concept to show RHealth Advisor’s ability to collaborate with unique and flexible hardware platforms that have extended reach and access globally.
In December 2010, we signed a product distribution agreement with Montana Healthcare Solutions, a South African based health solutions distribution company, whereupon Montana Healthcare Solutions has limited rights to sell/market products/services on our behalf. We have agreed to pay to Montana Healthcare Solutions a portion of the sales proceeds for marketing/sales and support services to be determined on a project-by-project basis. Since its inception, we have partnership with Donald Woods Foundation, MIMU Foundation, Health Partners, Buffellshoek Trust, Integr8, LifeCare Hospitals, Nokia, and Sanlam Health to determine business and integration models. In conjunction with Montana Healthcare Solutions we have signed agreements with Telemedicine Africa (Pty) to deliver RHealth Advisor mobile web as an essential addition to its telemedicine solution offering to the medically underserved population of Africa; MXit Lifestyle (Pty) Ltd, an online social network, to deliver health applications to MXit’s current user base in South Africa.
During the 2010 timeframe, we determined the importance of modularizing our platform to be used with other healthcare related companies. We contracted with Blacklight, a South African technology company, for unique development tools to easily white-label RHealth Advisor’s mobile web user interfaces for various customers.
In 2012, with some of the changes in the US healthcare system, it became apparent that the global solution we have developed could easily meet the needs and interests of healthcare providers, payers and customers in developed countries. In January 2012, we expanded our efforts to prepare for commercialization in developed markets. This included taking what has been learned in the global market and applying it to developed markets. During 2012, we identified and filed for patent protection in four key use areas. We have filed these patent applications to leverage the sophisticated clinical reasoning and proprietary database that we have developed. We believe we have a significant disruptive advantage in the following four important use case areas; all pointing directly to our refined business strategy and product differentiation:
1. | Pre-admission Screening – streamline patient throughput at the primary care level. For example, patient receives initial impression via RHealth Advisor approved by the physician and is directed to complete necessary laboratory tests prior to seeing the physician; eliminating unnecessary patient visits within the system and allowing the provider to see more patients with higher return on investment for each appointment. |
2. | Predictive Medicine – identify unnecessary tests and provide argumentation for testing that is statistically relevant to form a conclusion. RHealth Advisor provides the physician, nurse practitioner and physician assistant the statistical likelihood that a given test will change the diagnostic confidence of a disease; eliminating unnecessary, or provide for less expensive tests, to get to the same conclusion thus saving the payer significant money. This allows them to incentivize providers to operate in a new fashion. |
3. | Diagnostic Support – providing differential diagnostic support. For example, RHealth Advisor’s prominent award winning diagnostic engine would provide diagnostic support to assist in reducing misdiagnosis and medical errors. In 2011, healthcare economist stated that misdiagnosis and medical errors cost the system $17 billion. |
11
4. | Chronic Disease Management and Treatment Adherence- improving patient monitoring and follow-up using sophisticated clinical reasoning and established technology. For example, a patient’s current status, the progression of their disease and any complications that may arise are monitored by RHealth Advisor with automated daily care management, reminders about appointments and diet and activity recommendations. Using our physician portal a physician can quickly evaluate and manage each of their patients which contain red, yellow, and green indicators based on their patient’s current condition and monitoring statistics. The engine tailors specific treatment plans for each patient allowing the physician to direct the patient’s care quickly and effectively. |
We believe healthcare providers view the above use cases as a way to lower their cost of providing care, manage more patients with a greater reach and influence and provide care to a knowledgeable consumer. This ultimately extends their revenue stream.
Payers view these use cases as a way to improve the quality, affordability and access of care. Together, these ultimately extend their profit margins and differentiate them in competitive markets.
Patients view these use cases as a way to improve their patient and provider experience by accessing better health care and saving time and out-of-pocket spending and unnecessary time in waiting rooms.
Despite all of the prior successes we have had, the Company has incurred large historical losses and did not recognize any sales revenues during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Due to our working capital deficit and resulting lack of liquidity, our operations have been greatly curtailed. However, our software has continued to be developed and made more functional for the markets we are pursuing.
Competition
The markets we participate in are intensely competitive, continually evolving and subject to rapid change. Other companies with competing applications have greater technical resources, product development, marketing, financial and other resources than we do. These organizations may have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition and larger customer bases as well.
However, we believe that through our strategy of partnering we compete primarily on the strength of our technology where the principal competitive factors include:
· | Scalability – the ability to scale to large national health systems throughout the world. |
· | Adaptability – ability to adapt to increasingly complex and changing healthcare systems. |
· | Compatibility – ability to work seamlessly with a diverse range of input devices and back-end systems. |
· | Functionality – ability to offer a wide scope of services to meet healthcare needs. |
· | Performance – ability to perform rapidly given the large scale of functionality. |
· | Security – ability to protect highly sensitive consumer information. |
· | Reliability – ability to provide predictable and repeatable highly relevant diagnosis and treatment information. |
· | Relationships with large healthcare organizations and corporations – we have demonstrated our ability to work with the largest organizations in the world. |
We believe that our applications compete favorably with those of our competitors on the basis of the above factors. Our applications compete most directly with other clinical decision support systems such as WebMD Symptom Checker, IBM’s Watson, Mayo Clinic Symptom Checker, ePocrates Essentials, Isabel, DiagnosisPro, Gideon, DxPlain, VisualDX and others. IBM’s Watson and these other traditional clinical decision support systems only provide a statistical analysis of data gathered and are limited by the user’s knowledge and input, whereas RHealth Advisor provides other benefits such as providing actionable next steps and patient education, including pertinent health record information within the diagnosis, sharing of health records across multiple platforms, and the ability to diagnose rare presentations of rare diseases. We believe our applications stand out from the competition because of our diagnostic engine, which determines a diagnosis based on symptoms, as well as disease probability and possibility. In addition, ours is the only solution with the ability to query the user for additional relevant information to obtain a higher confidence level for diagnosis. As a result, we believe our RHealth Advisor delivers a more accurate and relevant diagnosis. In addition it delivers better data integrity, increased patient adherence, a screening level that helps determine the service needed, monitoring and evaluation statistics, early detection of treatment failure, and pre-crisis intervention. Other important competitive factors in this area include device compatibility and portability, areas in which we believe we excel.
12
While we are not currently planning to compete directly with static health information services such as WebMD or MayoClinic, we do have a powerful health information database and strong tools that make the information useable as a resource and an educational tool. Should we license a system for use with our database or in combination with other databases, we believe we can distinguish ourselves, since we enrich data through interpretation. We also provide a user-rich experience because we integrate with personal history and current symptoms to provide diagnostic information, which other static health information systems do not currently offer.
Our ability to provide health records also makes us complimentary with product offerings including Microsoft’s HealthVault and others. We see opportunities to collaborate with such providers for our software modules to complement rather than compete. However, as we collaborate with one provider in an application area, we will compete with other providers for specific customers and business opportunities.
Government Regulation
The healthcare industry is highly regulated and is subject to changing political, regulatory and other influences. Most of our revenue is derived either directly from the healthcare industry or from other sources that are subject to healthcare laws and related regulations and could be affected by changes in those laws and regulations. The following is a description of some of the healthcare laws and regulations applicable to us, either directly or through their effect on our healthcare industry customers. Changes in those laws, regulations and standards may create unexpected liabilities for us, may cause us to incur additional costs and may restrict our operations.
Many healthcare laws are complex, and their application to specific products and services may not be clear. In particular, many existing healthcare laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate the healthcare information services that we provide. However, these laws, regulations and industry standards may nonetheless be applied to our products and services. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to accurately anticipate the application of these laws, regulations and industry standards to our operations. Our failure to accurately anticipate the application of these laws and regulations to our operations, or other failure to comply, could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity and negatively affect our business. Even in areas where we are not subject to healthcare regulation directly, we may become involved in governmental actions or investigations through our relationships with customers that are regulated, and participation in such actions or investigations, even if we are not a party and not the subject of an investigation, may cause us to incur significant expenses.
The laws and regulations that govern our business change rapidly. The following are summaries of some of the evolving areas of law and regulation that are relevant to our business:
United States Food and Drug Administration
The FDA promulgated draft guidance (“Proposed FDA Guidance”) for the regulation of computer software products as medical devices and a Final Rule for reclassification of medical device data systems under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended, or FDCA. The FDA also held a public Workshop to further discuss the FDA Guidance. To the extent that our software products are utilized as a clinical decision support system that allow a user to input patient-specific information and output a patient-specific result, diagnosis, or treatment recommendation to be used in clinical practice or to assist in making clinical decisions, then we are subject to the Proposed FDA Guidance and applicable regulations. To the extent that our software products are utilized as a symptom checker not intended to support a clinical decision and a mere medical reference guide, then we may not be subject to the Proposed FDA Guidance and applicable regulations. Although it is not possible to anticipate the final form of the Proposed FDA Guidance with regard to computer software, we expect that the FDA will become increasingly active in regulating computer software intended for use in healthcare settings regardless of whether the Proposed FDA Guidance is finalized or changed.
13
Medical devices are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA under the FDCA. Under the FDCA, medical devices include any instrument, apparatus, machine, contrivance, or other similar or related article that is, among other requirements, intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. FDA regulations govern, among other things, product development, testing, manufacture, packaging, labeling, storage, clearance or approval, advertising and promotion, sales and distribution, and import and export. FDA requirements with respect to devices that are determined to pose lesser risk to the public include:
· | establishment registration and device listing with the FDA; |
· | the Quality System Regulation, or QSR, which requires manufacturers, including third-party or contract manufacturers, to follow stringent design, testing, control, documentation, and other quality assurance procedures during all aspects of manufacturing; |
· | labeling regulations and FDA prohibitions against the advertising and promotion of products for uncleared, unapproved off-label uses and other requirements related to advertising and promotional activities; |
· | medical device reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur; and |
· | corrections and removal reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA any field corrections and product recalls or removals if undertaken to reduce a risk to health posed by the device or to remedy a violation of the FDCA that may present a risk to health. |
Non-compliance with applicable FDA requirements can result in, among other things, public warning letters, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, total or partial suspension of production, failure of the FDA to grant marketing approvals, withdrawal of marketing approvals, a recommendation by the FDA to disallow us from entering into government contracts, and criminal prosecutions. The FDA also has the authority to request repair, replacement, or refund of the cost of any device.
2010 Healthcare Affordable Care Act
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (which we refer to as the Affordable Care Act), was signed into law in March 2010. The Affordable Care Act makes extensive changes to the system of healthcare insurance and benefits in the U.S. In general, the Affordable Care Act seeks to reduce healthcare costs and decrease the number of uninsured legal U.S. residents by, among other things, requiring individuals to carry, and certain employers to offer, health insurance or be subject to penalties. The Affordable Care Act also imposes new regulations on health insurers, including guaranteed coverage requirements, prohibitions on certain annual and all lifetime limits on amounts paid on behalf of or to plan members, increased restrictions on rescinding coverage, establishment of minimum medical loss ratio requirements, a requirement to cover certain preventive services on a first dollar basis, the establishment of state insurance exchanges and essential benefit packages, and greater limitations on how health insurers price certain of their products. The Affordable Care Act also contains provisions that will affect the revenues and profits of pharmaceutical and medical device companies, including new taxes on certain sales of their products.
Many of the provisions of the Affordable Care Act that expand insurance coverage will not become effective until 2014, and many provisions require regulations and interpretive guidance to be issued before they will be fully implemented. While we do not currently anticipate any significant adverse effects on us as a direct result of application of the Affordable Care Act to our business or on our company in its capacity as an employer, we are unable to predict what the indirect impacts of the Affordable Care Act will be on our business through its effects on other healthcare industry participants. We believe the Affordable Care Act may possibly drive demand for our solutions that offer productivity improvements. However, we cannot yet determine the scope of any such opportunities or what competition we may face in our efforts to pursue such opportunities.
Privacy and Security Regulations
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations that have been issued under it, which we collectively refer to as HIPAA, contain substantial restrictions and requirements with respect to the use and disclosure of individuals’ protected health information. HIPAA prohibits a covered entity from using or disclosing an individual’s protected health information unless the use or disclosure is authorized by the individual or is specifically required or permitted under HIPAA. Under HIPAA, covered entities must establish administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of electronic protected health information maintained or transmitted by them or by others on their behalf.
Subtitle D of the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, enacted as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and its implementing regulations, address the privacy and security concerns associated with the electronic transmission of health information. The HITECH Act requires that covered entities follow certain breach notification procedures if unsecured protected health information is breached, including notifying affected patients and reporting to the Secretary of Health and Human Services under certain circumstances. Further, in light of the HITECH Act, certain sections of the HIPAA regulations are undergoing revision, which may impact our compliance requirements.
14
State Laws
In addition to HIPAA, most states have enacted patient confidentiality laws that protect against the unauthorized disclosure of confidential medical information, and many states have adopted or are considering further legislation in this area, including privacy safeguards, security standards and data security breach notification requirements. Such state laws, if more stringent than HIPAA requirements, are not preempted by the federal requirements, and we must comply with them even though they may be subject to different interpretations by various courts and other governmental authorities.
Medical Professional Regulation
The practice of most healthcare professions requires licensing under applicable state law. In addition, the laws in some states prohibit business entities from practicing medicine, which is referred to as the prohibition against the corporate practice of medicine. We do not believe that we engage in the practice of medicine, and we have attempted to structure our product offerings, strategic relationships and other operations to avoid violating these state licensing and professional practice laws. We do not believe that we provide professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment within the meaning of these laws. We have no intention to provide medical care or advice. A state, however, may determine that some portion of our business violates these laws and may seek to have us discontinue those portions or subject us to penalties or licensure requirements. Any determination that we are a healthcare provider and acted improperly as a healthcare provider may result in liability to us.
Other Requirements
In addition to HIPAA, numerous other state and federal laws govern the collection, dissemination, use, access to and confidentiality of individually identifiable health and other information and healthcare provider information. The FTC has issued, and several states have issued or are considering, new regulations to require holders of certain types of personally identifiable information to implement formal policies and programs to prevent, detect and mitigate the risk of identity theft and other unauthorized access to or use of such information. Further, the U.S. Congress and a number of states have considered or are considering prohibitions or limitations on the disclosure of medical or other information to individuals or entities located outside of the United States.
Many countries and governmental bodies have, or are developing, laws that may apply to online health information services of the types we provide, including laws regarding the collection, use, storage and dissemination of personal information or patient data. To the extent our operations are located within their jurisdiction or are directed at individuals within their jurisdiction, these laws may apply to us. In addition, those governments may attempt to apply such laws extraterritorially or through treaties or other arrangements with U.S. governmental entities. To the extent we fail to accurately anticipate the application or interpretation of these laws, we could be subject to liability and adverse publicity, which could negatively affect our business. In addition, these laws may impose additional operational requirements or restrictions on our business and increase our cost of doing business.
Employees
At September 30, 2012, we employed a total of 6 people. Of such employees, two were executive officers, three were in research and development, and one in marketing, sales and licensing. We also use outside consultants for various services from time to time. We are not a party to a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relations with our employees to be favorable.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the information contained elsewhere in this annual report, you should consider carefully the following risk factors related to the Company. If any of the risks described below actually occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could be materially adversely affected. This annual report also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks faced by us described below and elsewhere in this annual report.
Risk Factors Relating to Our Business
We are a development stage company. Our products and services are being introduced into evolving and changing markets and face a relatively prolonged full adoption cycle by proposed users. Certain products, key to our future plans, continue to be adapted and improved for the intended end use. As a result and since we have not had significant revenues, we are still considered to be in the development stage and remain subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. An investment in our Company must be considered in light of all the risks inherent in any development stage business including the absence of a profitable operating history, lack of financial and customer market recognition, and limited banking and financial relationships. In addition, our business plan and operating strategy involves expansion into businesses and global markets that are highly competitive and dominated by large companies with long established and highly recognized market presence.
We have a history of losses and may incur future losses. From Inception to September 30, 2012, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flow from operations and have a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $18,074,827. Our net losses for the years ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011 were $1,198,680 and $2,808,403, respectively. At September 30, 2012, we had negative working capital of $3,650,926 and had notes and accrued interest in default aggregating $1,626,142. Our ability to emerge from the development stage and continue as a going concern is in doubt and is dependent upon obtaining additional financing, restructuring or renegotiating our debt and/or attaining a profitable level of operations. We could continue to incur losses in the future until revenues are sufficient to sustain continued profitability. Failure to achieve or maintain profitability will likely negatively impact the value of our securities.
Our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In their audit opinions issued in connection with our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2012 and our related consolidated statements of operations, consolidated changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended, our independent public accounting firm stated that our significant recurring net losses and our requirement to secure new financing raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have prepared our financial statements on a going concern basis that contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to liquidate our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our stockholders may lose a substantial portion or all of their investment.
We require additional financing to continue our operations. We require substantial additional financing to continue development and marketing of our products and to execute our business plan. Our principal source of liquidity at September 30, 2012 consisted of cash of $5,764. We have no other unused sources of liquidity at this time. Management expects that given the current rate of expenditures it will require approximately $1,000,000 to meet operating requirements for the next twelve months in addition to cash requirements or refinancing to meet current debt obligations. Additionally, the development of our products may require the commitment of substantial funds to conduct the costly and time-consuming research and testing necessary to establish market acceptance and establish marketing and licensing capabilities. Our future capital requirements may depend on many factors, including progress in our research and development programs, our ability to establish collaborative arrangements with others for product development, marketing and distribution, the time and costs involved in obtaining any required regulatory approvals, and other economic factors outside our control. Accordingly, we may need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our operations. Management is seeking to raise additional funds through debt or equity financings, or through collaborative ventures entered with potential corporate or other partners to fund some or all of such activities. We do not currently have any such arrangements with any such corporate sponsors, and there can be no assurance that such arrangements will be consummated or that such collaborative ventures will be entered into by us on favorable terms, if at all. In addition, there can be no assurance we will otherwise be able to obtain additional financing or that such financing, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to us. If such financings are not consummated or additional financing is not otherwise available, we may be required to modify our business development plans or reduce or cease certain or all of our operations. Failure to enter into such collaborative ventures or to receive additional funding to complete our proposed product development programs could have a materially adverse effect on our Company. In the event that we obtain any additional funding, such financings may have a dilutive effect on the holders of our securities because we may have to issue additional equity in connection with such financings.
16
We are dependent upon key personnel and consultants. Our success is heavily dependent upon the continued active participation of our current executive officers and other key employees. We are also highly dependent upon certain consultants. Loss of the services of one or more of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Further, our success and achievement of our growth plans depend on our ability to recruit, hire, train and retain other highly qualified technical and managerial personnel. Our products and services are developed by highly educated and trained personnel who cannot be quickly or easily replaced. Competition for qualified employees among medical information technology companies is intense, and the loss of any of such persons, or an inability to attract, retain and motivate any additional highly skilled employees required for the expansion of our activities, could have a materially adverse effect on our Company.
We are controlled by our current officers, directors and principal stockholders. Our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders beneficially own approximately 51% of our Common Stock. As a result, such persons will have the ability to exert substantial influence over the election of the members of our Board of Directors and to determine the outcome of most issues submitted to our stockholders for approval.
Conflicts of interest may arise relating to our technology license and other affiliate arrangements. Certain conflicts of interest now exist and will continue to exist between us and our executive officers and directors as they have other employment, business and investment interests to which they devote some attention and they are expected to continue to do so. We currently license our core technology from an entity controlled by our Chairman, President and CEO, Dr. Robertson. While we anticipate that Dr. Robertson will recuse himself from negotiations among us and affiliated Robertson Entities there can be no assurance thereof or that his ownership might not influence others. We have not established policies or procedures for the resolution of current or potential conflicts of interest between us and management or management-affiliated entities. There can be no assurance that members of management will resolve all conflicts of interest in our favor. Officers and directors are accountable to our Company as fiduciaries, meaning that they are legally obligated to exercise good faith and integrity in handling our affairs. Failure by them to conduct our business in our best interests may result in liability to us and to them. While our directors and officers may be excluded from liability for certain actions pursuant to indemnification agreements in our articles and bylaws or contracts, there is no assurance that our officers and directors would be excluded from liability or indemnified if they breach their loyalty to our Company.
We must develop a customer base and collaborations in order to grow our business. While we have certain customer collaborations on product development and marketing, in order to grow our business we must develop additional relationships with customers and collaboration partners to obtain the distribution to and use of our products by end customers, whether consumers, healthcare workers or others. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to develop a customer or collaboration base. Even if we obtain customers, we cannot guarantee that such parties will purchase, sell or distribute sufficient products at prices that will enable us to recover our costs in acquiring and servicing customers. Our ability to sell our products depends on a number of factors, including:
· | our ability to customize and introduce products that have the features required by particular customers; |
· | our ability to develop relationships with customers and collaborators that will lead to use of our products by end users; |
· | our ability to develop new markets for our products; and |
· | our ability to develop international product distribution directly or through collaborative partners. |
17
Healthcare service providers and users may not accept our products. The success of our current and future products may require acceptance or continued acceptance by healthcare service providers and end users. Such acceptance may depend on product research and testing, and the conclusion by such persons that our products are effective, safe, efficient, and utilize acceptable methods of diagnosis and benefits. Even if the efficacy of our products is established, healthcare industry participants may elect not to use our products for unanticipated reasons.
We may not be able to adequately enhance our products. The market for our proposed products is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and frequent new product introductions. Our future success may depend, in part, on our continued ability to enhance our current products, create synergies between our products and those of strategic partners and to introduce new products and features to meet changing customer requirements, technological advances and emerging industry standards. There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete the development of future products or, if developed, that our products will achieve market acceptance. Any delay or failure of these products to achieve market acceptance would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, there can be no assurance that products or technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies less-competitive which would have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
Our products may not perform as projected. We have invested substantial resources in development of our products and services. There can be no assurance, however, that our products will perform as intended or be well-received by intended users. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that competitors will not introduce products that perform better, offer technological or competitive advantages, or are more readily accepted in the marketplace, than our products.
We face intense competition. Our proposed business is characterized by intense competition. Many companies, research institutes, hospitals and universities are presently working to develop products and processes in our fields of research and planned products. Most of these enterprises have substantially greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing, distribution and other resources than our Company. Certain of such companies may have experience in undertaking testing of new or improved products similar in nature to that which we are developing and plan to introduce. Accordingly, other companies may succeed in developing products earlier than we do or that are more effective than those proposed to be developed and introduced by us. Further, competition in our field may intensify. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully.
We cannot predict our future operating results. Our quarterly and annual results will likely be subject to fluctuations caused by many factors, any of which could result in our failure to achieve our expectations. We expect our proprietary products and technologies will be the source of substantially all of our future revenues. Revenues, if any, from our proprietary products and technologies are expected to vary significantly due to a number of factors. Many of these factors are beyond our control. Any one or more of these factors, including those listed below, could cause us to fail to achieve our revenue expectations. These factors include:
· | our ability to develop and supply our software products and solutions to collaboration partners and customers; |
· | market acceptance of, and changes in demand for, our software products; |
· | gains or losses of significant customers, collaborators or strategic relationships; |
· | the availability, pricing and timeliness of licensing of our products by customers; |
· | timing of new technological advances, product announcements or introductions by us, by our licensees and by our competitors; |
· | product obsolescence and the management of product implementations and transitions; |
· | unpredictable installation, service or software warranty costs; |
· | installation or order delays by customers; |
· | general healthcare industry conditions, including changes in demand; |
· | general economic conditions that could affect the timing of customer orders and capital spending and result in order cancellations or rescheduling; and |
· | general political conditions in this country and worldwide that could affect spending for the products that we intend to offer. |
Some or all of these factors could adversely affect demand for our products or technologies and, therefore, adversely affect our future operating results.
18
Our expenses may vary from period to period, which could affect quarterly results and our stock price. If we incur additional expenses in a quarter in which we do not experience revenues or increased revenues, our results of operations will be adversely affected and we may incur larger losses than anticipated for that quarter. Factors that could cause our expenses to fluctuate from period to period include:
· | the timing and extent of our research and development efforts; |
· | marketing, sales and licensing costs; |
· | investments and costs of maintaining or protecting our intellectual property; |
· | the extent of marketing and sales efforts and costs thereof to promote our products and technologies; and |
· | the timing of personnel and consultant hiring. |
New and changing government regulation creates compliance challenges and may increase our costs. The healthcare industry is highly regulated and is subject to changing political, legislative, regulatory and other influences.
Our software and services are targeted at this highly regulated industry. Many healthcare laws, including those related to reimbursement by Medicare, Medicaid and other government programs, are complex and their application to specific products and services may not be clear. In particular, many existing healthcare laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate the healthcare solutions that we provide. However, these laws and regulations may nonetheless be applied to our software and services in a manner that we may not anticipate. Furthermore, the laws are constantly evolving and we cannot predict the effects of future legislative and regulatory actions.
The regulatory regimes to which we are subject, and the evolving nature of the applicable laws, have several important implications for us. We have invested resources in conforming our products to applicable standards and further significant investment may be required as certification standards evolve.
There can be no assurance that applicable regulatory bodies will approve our software or services if required, or that approvals waived or already granted will continue in effect. Regulators may, and often do, view products differently than their proponents, and approvals that we believe to be forthcoming may be significantly delayed or denied altogether. In addition, laws or rules applicable to our software or services could be changed in a way unfavorable to us. Any such change could have a material adverse effect on our ability to obtain approval for our software and services, if required, and on our prospects in general.
Beginning in calendar 2013, the Affordable Care Act provides that a tax in an amount equal to 2.3% of the price for which a manufacturer sells its medical devices will have to be paid by each medical device manufacturer. It is possible that our software or services may be impacted by this tax.
Our intellectual property may not be fully protected. While we have patent pending status on several of our processes, we have no patents, trademarks or copyrights registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “PTO”) in connection with our products. Although we believe that we may be able to obtain intellectual property protection with respect to certain current products and/or products now in development, there can be no assurance that if we apply that the PTO or its overseas counterparts will issue patents for such inventions, or, if such patents are issued, whether they will provide meaningful protection for our products. We believe, however, that some of the intellectual property used in our products may be subject to common law protection as trade secrets and copyrights. However, we may not be able to obtain any patents in connection with our technology and may not be able to adequately protect our products. Also, we may, in the future, face allegations that our technology violates or infringes the intellectual property rights of others; although no such claims have been made, and we are not aware of a basis for any such claim. In either case, our business may be materially adversely affected, resulting in a loss of potential revenues, increased expenses and a potential loss of marketing opportunities.
There is widespread uncertainty in the U.S. healthcare industry. In the United States, and in many other countries, there are political and governmental initiatives to significantly modify the healthcare system and the manner in which medical care is delivered and reimbursed. While we believe that the Company is well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities created by these changes. The outcome of this process is uncertain and this process could result in decisions and outcomes that may be unfavorable to our operations.
19
Our business may expose us to potential product liability risks. Our business may expose us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in providing medical diagnosis-related services and predictive technologies, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to avoid significant product liability exposure. Although we anticipate we may obtain product liability insurance, there can be no assurance that we will not face claims that exceed any possible insurance coverage, when and if obtained. Product liability insurance in the healthcare industry is generally expensive, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain product liability insurance on acceptable terms or with adequate coverage against potential liabilities. A successful products liability claim, if any, brought against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Inadequate internal controls or accounting practices and material weaknesses in our internal controls could lead to errors or restatements, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our small size and limited personnel make maintaining internal controls and management oversight systems more challenging than for more established and larger entities. We are subject to rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on internal controls over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. After documenting and testing our system, we identified a material weakness in our accounting and financial functions due to a lack of segregation of duties primarily resulting from our limited staffing. As a result, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. As a result of our internal control over financial reporting being ineffective, we are more susceptible to errors or restatement and investors could lose confidence in our financial reports, and our stock price might be adversely affected. In addition, remedying this or any future material weaknesses that we might identify could require us to incur significant costs and expend significant time and management resources. We cannot assure you that any of the measures we might implement to remedy any such deficiencies would effectively mitigate or remedy such deficiencies.
Risk Factors Relating to Our Common Stock
There can be no assurance that an active trading market for shares of our common stock will develop. There is a minimal public market for our common stock. We cannot be certain that more of a public market for our common stock will develop, or if developed, the extent to which investor interest in our company will sustain an active trading or how liquid such a market might be in the future. Our Common Stock will likely be thinly traded compared to larger more widely known companies. It is possible that an active trading market, if established, will not continue and there can be no assurance as to the price at which our common stock will trade. We are not subject of any research analyst coverage. The absence of research analyst coverage can adversely affect the market value and liquidity of an equity security.
We cannot predict the price range or volatility of our common stock and sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. From time to time, the market price and volume of shares traded of companies in the industries in which we operate experience periods of significant volatility. Company-specific issues and developments generally affecting our industries or the economy may cause this volatility. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of events and factors, including:
· | general economic, market and political conditions; |
· | quarterly variations in results of operations or results of operations that are below public market analyst and investor expectations; |
· | changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts; |
· | operating and market price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable; |
· | press releases or publicity relating to us or our competitors or relating to trends in our markets; and |
· | sales of common stock or other securities by insiders. |
In addition, broad market and industry fluctuations, investor perception and the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock, regardless of actual operating performance.
Sales or distributions of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market or otherwise, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. All of the shares of our common stock, other than the shares held by executive officers and directors, are eligible for resale in the public market. Substantial selling of our common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
20
Penny Stock Regulations Affect Our Stock Price, Which May Make It More Difficult For Investors To Sell Their Stock. Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price per share of less than $5.00 other than (a) securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market (provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system) or (b) securities that meet certain net tangible asset or revenue thresholds. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, and investors may find it more difficult to sell their securities.
We may issue additional common stock in the future. The issuance of additional common stock may reduce the value of your common stock. We may issue additional shares of common stock without further action by our stockholders. Moreover, the economic and voting interests of each stockholder will be diluted as a result of such issuances. Although the number of shares of common stock that stockholders presently own will not decrease, such shares will represent a smaller percentage of the total shares that will be outstanding after the issuance of additional shares. The issuance of additional shares of common stock may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
Sales of common stock issuable on the exercise of any existing or future options or warrants may lower the price of our common stock. We have a stock option plan authorizing the grant of options to purchase up to 1,400,000 shares of our common stock to our employees, directors and consultants. We have warrants on up to 1,012,041 common shares outstanding as part of our debt and equity financings and may issue common stock purchase warrants or other securities convertible into common stock in the future. The issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of convertible securities, options or warrants could cause substantial dilution to existing holders of common stock, and the sale of those shares in the market could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. The potential dilution from the issuance of these shares could negatively affect the terms on which we are able to obtain equity financing.
We may issue preferred stock in the future, and the terms of the preferred stock may reduce the value of your common stock. We are authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. Our Board of Directors may determine the terms of future preferred stock offerings without further action by our stockholders. If we issue preferred stock, it could affect your rights or reduce the value of your common stock. In particular, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with or sell our assets to a third party. Preferred stock terms may include voting rights, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion and redemption rights and sinking fund provisions.
The payment of dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors. The declaration and amount of future dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements, financial covenants, regulatory constraints, industry practice and other factors our Board deems relevant.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our executive offices, sales and research and development and production activities are currently headquartered at our CEO’s home office. Company personnel all work remotely from their home offices and meet on a regular basis either at the CEO’s home office, or at another mutually convenient location. We believe this method of operation is adequate for our current needs, but expect that as the need to obtain additional staff increases, an office location will be necessary. We currently pay no rent for office facilities.
21
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings as of the date of this report. However, we may at times in the future become involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. We will also, from time to time, when appropriate in management’s estimation, record adequate reserves in our financial statements for pending litigation. Litigation is expensive and is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in any such matters could adversely impact our operating results or financial condition. Additionally, any litigation to which we may become subject could also require significant involvement of our senior management and may divert management’s attention from our business and operations.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this information statement, particularly in “Risk Factors”.
Overview
We license RHealth Advisor, a medical knowledge platform powering a suite of health applications for global healthcare delivery. The core medical knowledge management system, use of mathematical and statistical bases and business process for the software was invented by our founder and CEO, Dr. Joel Robertson (“Dr. Robertson”), in 2002. NxOpinion, LLC, our predecessor, was formed in 2005 to improve and commercialize the platform. We believe RHealth Advisor is an advanced and powerful global healthcare solution that improves medical outcomes and is uniquely capable of being implemented in a wide range of settings worldwide, from rural health systems to the most sophisticated urban hospital systems.
24
Our software platform employs rich web services allowing mobile technology, personal computer and web interfaces to deliver a powerful suite of healthcare applications. RHealth Advisor’s medical knowledge applications include electronic health records, health tips, reference guide and diagnostic pre-screening that determines the probability of what condition may be afflicting a patient. In addition, RHealth Advisor provides the latest treatment options and referral to the appropriate level of care given presenting symptoms based on patient facts, health history, user skill level, geographical location, resources available and other available data. RHealth Advisor’s innovative design and flexibility allows for rapid customization for varied users, including healthcare workers, consumers, nurses, physicians and other health care providers, as well as tailoring for different countries, regions and languages.
Our business model is organized to generate revenue by licensing our software platform and modules generally through collaborative efforts with other organizations. License and revenue agreements have been signed with affiliated companies and collaboration partners. These agreements have not yet generated significant revenue for us, but have been entered in anticipation of RHealth Advisor’s commercialization. We expect license fees to be either (a) subscription based or transaction based to vary depending on the RHealth Advisor applications used and the market profile of each prospective customer or (b) result from advertising and sponsorships. Implementation may include a setup fee with respect to the applications and potential integration needs of customers.
Overall Performance
The Company is considered to be a development stage enterprise. Although some principal operations of marketing and licensing software solutions began during 2009, we have not yet generated any significant revenue. We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flow from operations since inception. Management has plans to renegotiate or restructure its debt, generate revenues and to seek additional capital, as described herein. However there can be no assurance additional funds will be available. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore, be required to liquidate our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, real estate valuation and impairment, stock-based compensation, reverse acquisition accounting, facility exit liability and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Historically, our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting policies have not differed materially from actual results. We believe that, of the significant accounting policies and matters discussed in our consolidated financial statements, the following accounting policies and reporting matters require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments:
Stock-based compensation - We account for share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation requiring the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees based on estimated fair values. ASC 718 requires the use of subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility, forfeitures and the estimated term of each award. If actual results differ significantly from our estimates, stock-based compensation expense and our results of operations could be materially impacted.
25
Income taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company provides a full valuation reserve related to its net deferred tax assets. In the future, if sufficient evidence of an ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions becomes apparent, the Company may be required to reduce the valuation allowances, resulting in income tax benefits in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company evaluates the realizability of the deferred tax assets and assesses the need for valuation allowance quarterly. The utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards could be substantially limited due to restrictions imposed under federal and state laws upon a change in ownership in the future.
There were no significant changes or modification of our critical accounting policies and estimates involving management valuation adjustments affecting our results for the year ended September 30, 2012. For further information on our critical accounting policies, refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Year Ended September 30, 2012 compared to the Year Ended September 30, 2011
Revenues – No revenues were generated during the year ended September 30, 2012. Revenues generated during the year ended September 30, 2011 totaled $217,416. This consisted of $10,000 of implementation fees for regionalization work completed during the year and $207,416 of deferred revenue recognized as earned during the year. The additional revenue recognized in the inception to date column related to a one time development collaboration agreement with Microsoft Corporation. This revenue is not related to the planned commercialization of the Company's product and is not expected to recur in the future.
Product and content development expenses – Product and content development costs consist primarily of personnel costs and technology consulting costs. Personnel costs related to product and content development were $187,125 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $460,294 for the year ended September 30, 2011. The decrease was due to staff layoffs during the year ended September 30, 2012, done as part of scaling back of our activities due to a lack of financial resources. Technology consulting costs were $409,635 for the year ended September 30, 2011 for the utilization in of a technology consulting firm for implementation management and application design and development. There were no similar costs during 2012.
Product and content development personnel costs included non-cash stock based compensation costs of $46,039 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $59,602 for the year ended September 30, 2011.
Our product and content development costs vary period to period due to the timing of projects, the availability of funds for research and development and the timing and extent of use of outside consulting firms and collaborations with development partners. Based on current plans and staffing, we expect fiscal year 2013 product and content development costs to be higher than expenditures during 2012.
Selling, general and administrative expenses – These costs consist primarily of personnel costs, administrative consulting fees and professional fees. Personnel costs related to selling, general and administrative activities were $485,920 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $1,261,637 for the year ended September 30, 2011. The decrease increase was due to staff layoffs during the year ended September 30, 2012, done as part of scaling back of our activities due to a lack of financial resources. Consulting fees were $79,333 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $110,375 for the year ended September 30, 2011. The decrease resulted from decreased administrative consulting engaged. Professional fees related to selling, general and administrative activities were $41,157 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $197,945 for the year ended September 30, 2011. The decrease in professional fees resulted primarily from legal costs reported in the prior year associated with a threatened lawsuit.
Selling, general and administrative personnel costs included non-cash stock based compensation costs of $138,500 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and $596,751 for the year ended September 30, 2011.
We may expend additional resources on marketing and licensing our products in future periods and hire additional personnel which may increase selling, general and administrative expenses.
26
Other income (expenses) – Net other expense of $135,587 included $147,587 of interest expense for the year ended September 30, 2012. Net other expense of $119,448 included $153,874 of interest expense for the year ended September 30, 2011 of which $27,003 was non-cash accretion and other interest related expenses.
Net loss – Our net loss for the year ended September 30, 2012 was $1,193,680 compared to a net loss of $2,808,403 for the year ended September 30, 2011. The decreased loss was primarily due to a scaling back of our activities due to a lack of financial resources, and was also impacted by a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation and a decrease in revenues from the prior year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2012, we had cash and equivalents of $5,764 compared to $90,585 at September 30, 2011. Net cash used by operating activities was $534,823 during the year ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,451,403 used by operating activities for the year ended September 30, 2011. The current period net cash used by operating activities included the net loss of $1,193,680 reduced by $184,539 of non-cash stock-based compensation costs and $2,022 of non-cash expenses. Other changes providing cash from operating activities included a $380,932 increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses and $119,546 increase in accrued interest. Until the company can begin to generate revenue, we expect continued cash operating deficits.
Our principal source of liquidity at September 30, 2011 consisted of cash of $5,764. We have no other unused sources of liquidity at this time. Management expects that given the current rate of expenditures it will require approximately $1,000,000 to meet operating requirements for the next twelve months. We also have principal amounts due on debt of $1,426,347 due in the next twelve months that we must restructure or refinance or obtain funds for payment. The Company may also elect to expand its business activities by hiring additional personnel or expanding its marketing or other activities. Some of the required funds may be generated from future revenues or from renegotiating debt arrangements although there is no assurance any debt payments can be restructured. Management is actively seeking opportunities for debt or equity financing to meet cash requirements for the next twelve months. Should additional funds not be available, we will be required to further curtail or scale back operations. Failure to obtain sufficient capital could have a material adverse effect on our Company.
Effects of Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the period ended September 30, 2012, or subsequently thereto, that we believe are of potential significance to our financial statements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS & PROCEDURES
Attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K are certifications of our President (“Principal Executive Officer” or “PEO”) and Chief Accounting Officer (“Principal Financial Officer” or “PFO”) that are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes information concerning the controls and controls evaluation referred to in the certifications.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e)) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are designed to ensure that (1) information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
At the conclusion of the period ended September 30, 2012, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our PEO) and our Chief Financial Officer (our PFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the PEO and PFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the existence of a known material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, as discussed below.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our Company. We maintain internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reposting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of our Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of our Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention and timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012, using criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). This assessment included evaluation of elements such as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment. Management’s assessment is supported by testing and monitoring performed by our finance personnel of the operational effectiveness of our internal control.
Based on this assessment, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting: our Chief Financial Officer was responsible for initiating transactions, had custody of assets, recorded and reconciled transactions and prepared our year-end financial reports without the sufficient segregation of conflicting duties normally required for effective internal control. In light of this material weakness management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Due to our small size and limited resources it is difficult to segregate these functions until the company grows and can afford additional accounting and finance personnel. Due to our developmental stage, we had no revenue in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 and we had a limited number of financial transactions, consisting mostly of finite expenditures. Management has concluded that with certain management and audit committee oversight controls that are in place and the use of an outside SEC and GAAP consultant for each period closing, the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties is not sufficient to justify the costs of adding additional personnel at this time. Management has also taken steps to improve the oversight process relating to disbursements and for higher Board review of quarterly and annual reports. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation.
28
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including the PEO and PFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of expansion of the business and related complication of tracking transactions and changes in conditions of deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Directors and Executive Officers
Set forth below is information concerning our executive officers and directors at January 11, 2013:
Name | Age | Position(s) | Director Since | ||
Joel C. Robertson | 60 | Director, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer | May 2010 | ||
Melissa A. Seeger | 39 | Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary | |||
Gerald L. Ehrens | 73 | Director | September 2005 | ||
Peter J. Perkinson | 69 | Director | July 2010 |
There are no arrangements or understandings between our company and any other person pursuant to which he was or is to be selected as a director, executive officer or nominee.
The factual information below for each director and for each executive officer has been provided by that person. The particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led our Board of Directors to conclude that each director should serve on our Board, in light of our business and structure, was determined by our Board.
Joel C. Robertson, Pharm.D., has been a director since May 28, 2010 when he was also appointed Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer; Dr. Robertson is a businessman, author and specialist in neuropharmacology. An internationally recognized clinician, he is also a bestselling author, lecturer, consultant and founder of Robertson Research Institute, a non-profit company formed in 2002 to develop the search engine underlying the Company’s technology. He formed Robertson Health Services, Inc. (RHS, formerly NxOpinion) in 2005 to assemble data and commercially exploit the developed software and he served as the sole manager of NxOpinion from its inception in 2005 until May 28, 2010. Dr. Robertson has extensive background and experience in the creation of new and innovative programs. He received national acclaim for his creation of a chemical dependency and psychiatric sub-acute care facility, has consulted with over 30 inpatient/outpatient chemical dependency and psychiatric facilities, and opened and administered two inpatient and three outpatient and day care facilities. However, Dr. Robertson does not have extensive experience in establishing or operating a software based business similar to the Company’s planned business. No other executive or employee of the Company possesses such experience.
29
We believe Dr. Robertson is well-qualified to serve as a director of the Company due to his invention of the Company’s core technology and his longstanding leadership in guiding our technology to market. Dr. Robertson’s vision to improve the global delivery and access to health care services and information is at the core of our Company’s mission.
Melissa A. Seeger, CPA, was appointed Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary on May 28, 2010 and was Controller at RHS and its affiliated companies from November 2008 to the May 28, 2010 Merger. She has over 12 years of public accounting experience with an emphasis on private company consulting and taxation. Ms. Seeger has no prior experience as a CFO, or other significant financial office, of a public company. She has a Bachelor of Administration degree from Saginaw Valley State University, and became a Certified Public Accountant in the State of Michigan in 1998. From 1996 to 2008, Ms. Seeger was employed by Yeo & Yeo, Certified Public Accountants, commencing as a staff accountant and advancing to the position of senior manager.
Gerald L. Ehrens has been a self-employed private investor since 1994. From 1992 to 1994 he was Chief Operating Officer of Inamed Corp., a Nasdaq medical device company. Previously he held senior executive positions at E.I. Dupont and Union Carbide with his last position at Union Carbide in 1992 being Vice President of New Business Development. In 1996, he was appointed as a director of unlisted publicly owned Commercial Bank of Nevada and served until its sale through merger to a NYSE bank group in June 1998. He also served as a director of SouthwestUSA Bank and its parent SouthwestUSA Corporation from June 2003 to February 2006. Mr. Ehrens received a BS in Chemical Engineering from Princeton University in 1961 and a MS in Industrial Administration from George Washington University in 1965.
We believe that Mr. Ehrens is well-qualified to serve as a director due to his extensive experience in business management and leadership. Mr. Ehrens’ specialized experience in business development and operations is a tremendous asset to the Company given its current state of development.
Peter J. Perkinson has been an investor in and a consultant to real estate and business projects since retiring as Executive Vice President and CFO of Van Camp Seafood in 1991. From 2006 to May 28, 2010, he was a consultant to NxOpinion, LLC (now Robertson Health Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company). Mr. Perkinson has over 13 years of experience in senior financial management positions both in the U.S. and abroad, including positions as Senior Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer, primarily in consumer products related companies. Past employers include Procter & Gamble, Tambrands and Chicken of the Sea (Van Camp Seafood).
We believe that Mr. Perkinson is well-qualified to serve as a director due to his extensive experience in senior financial management, including his past experience as a chief financial officer of a publicly traded company. Mr. Perkinson’s experience is particularly helpful to the Company in finance, accounting and compliance matters.
Stockholder Recommendations for Director Nominations
We have no nominating committee of the Board of Directors and no formal procedure for director nominations. Accordingly, there has been no change in the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our board of directors during the year ended September 30, 2012.
Committees of the Board of Directors
We have a separately designated standing Audit Committee, currently consisting of Mr. Ehrens and Mr. Perkinson. We believe both members are independent under the standards discussed in Item 13 below and that Mr. Perkinson qualifies as an “Audit Committee Financial Expert,” as defined by Regulation S-K.
30
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or persons performing similar functions (as well as our other employees and directors). A copy of the Code Ethics for Senior Officers is posted on our Internet site at www.robertsonhealth.com. In addition, a copy will be provided without charge to any person upon request. Requests for copies of our Code of Ethics for Senior Officers should be sent by mail to Corporate Secretary at Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation, P.O. Box 5856, Saginaw, Michigan 48603. Requests may also be made by calling the Company at (989) 799-8720. In the event we make any amendments to, or grant any waivers of, a provision of the Code Ethics for Senior Officers that applies to the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, or principal accounting officer that requires disclosure under applicable SEC rules, we intend to disclose such amendment or waiver and the reasons therefore on a Form 8-K or on our next periodic report.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) requires the Company’s officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a class of the Company’s securities registered under Section 12(g) of the Act to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on a review of copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were required during the year ended September 30, 2012, the Company believes that all persons subject to the reporting requirements pursuant to Section 16(a) filed the required reports on a timely basis with the SEC.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation of our Named Executive Officers
At September 30, 2012, we identified Joel C. Robertson and Melissa A.

Director Independence
As the Company is quoted on OTC Markets and not one of the national securities exchanges, it is not subject to any director independence requirements. However, we have adopted the NASDAQ Stock Market’s standards for determining the independence of directors and believe that Messrs. Ehrens and Perkinson qualify as independent directors. In making this determination, our Board of Directors has concluded that none of the independent directors has a relationship that, in the opinion of our Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation (a development stage company) as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements for the period April 11, 2005 (inception) through December 31, 2009. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion on the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the period April 11, 2005 (inception) through December 31, 2009, insofar as it relates to the amounts for prior period through December 31, 2009, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the entity has suffered recurring losses from operations, is in default on many of its notes payable and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ROBERTSON GLOBAL HEALTH SOLUTIONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
(a development stage company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Nature of Operations, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
On May 28, 2010, Robertson Global Health Solutions Corporation (“RGHS”) (formerly ASI Technology Corporation (“ASI”)) completed the acquisition of NxOpinion, LLC and its subsidiary (“NxOpinion”), previously a privately-owned health care technology licensing company headquartered in Saginaw, Michigan (the “Merger”) pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Recapitalization dated May 28, 2010 (the “Recapitalization Agreement”). As a result of the Merger, the business of NxOpinion is now owned by Robertson Health Services, Inc. (“RHS”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of RGHS. The post-merger company is referred to herein as the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”.
The Company experienced a change in control, and therefore NxOpinion was deemed to be the acquiring company and for accounting purposes the Merger was considered to be a reverse acquisition and recapitalization.
Description of Business
The Company is a medical software company that has developed RHealth Advisor, a medical knowledge platform powering a suite of health applications for global healthcare delivery. The core medical knowledge management system, use of mathematical and statistical bases and business process for the software was invented by the Company’s founder and CEO, Dr. Joel Robertson (“Dr. Robertson”) in 2002. The Company believes RHealth Advisor is a very powerful medical knowledge platform uniquely capable of being implemented in a wide range of settings worldwide, from rural health systems to the most sophisticated urban hospital systems.

The Company follows the presentation and disclosure requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. Although some principal operations of marketing and licensing software solutions commenced in 2009, the Company has not yet generated significant revenue and is still considered in the development stage.
Basis of Presentation – Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. From inception to September 30, 2012, the Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flow from operations and has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $18,074,827. At September 30, 2012 the Company had a working capital deficit of $3,650,926 and notes and accrued interest aggregating $1,626,142 payable to related and unrelated parties that were in default. The Company's ability to emerge from the development stage and continue as a going concern is in doubt and is dependent upon obtaining additional financing, renegotiating or refinancing existing debt and/or attaining a profitable level of operations. The Company’s operating plans will require additional funds for operation and to repay, refinance or restructure existing debt. Management has plans to generate revenue producing business and to seek additional capital and restructure its debt, though there can be no assurance it will be able to do so.
During fiscal 2013, the Company may elect to incur additional costs to develop its business. The Company may also seek or pursue other business opportunities. However, there can be no assurance that sufficient additional funds will be available to enable the Company to continue as a going concern. Although asset impairment adjustments have been made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to liquidate its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RGHS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Subsidiaries of RGHS are Robertson Health Services, Inc. (RHS, comprising the former business of NxOpinion), Robertson Technologies Licensing, LLC (“RTL”, a wholly-owned limited liability company owned by RHS), ASI Capital Corporation (“ASI Capital”, a wholly-owned subsidiary that operates certain leased property) and ASI Land Holdings, Inc. (“ASI Land”, a wholly-owned subsidiary which previously held certain real estate). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
In the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, all references to historical information, balances and results of operations are related to NxOpinion (now RHS) and its subsidiary as the predecessor company pursuant to reverse acquisition accounting rules. Under reverse acquisition accounting rules, the merged Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect NxOpinion’s results as a development stage company from NxOpinion’s inception on April 11, 2005. The historical consolidated financial statements reflect the impact of the change in capital structure that resulted from the Merger as if that capital structure was in place as of April 11, 2005 (date of inception) and for all subsequent periods presented. The Company’s operating results (post-Merger) include the operating results of NxOpinion and its subsidiary prior to the date of the Merger and the results of the combined entities following the closing of the Merger.
Reclassifications
Where necessary, the prior year’s information has been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2012 statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or accumulated deficit.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
The Company regularly evaluates its accounting policies and estimates. In general, estimates are based on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable given the Company’s operating environment. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable. To date, revenues have not been significant and the Company expects to enter into new software licensing and collaborative arrangements in the future and will evaluate each in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 and the ASC’s Software and Collaborative Topics.
The Company’s business model includes collaborative arrangements resulting in the licensing of its software applications and related content with on-going license fees based on usage, availability or from advertising and sponsorships. Fees based on availability are recognized over the performance period; fees based on usage or from advertising and sponsorships are recognized as reported to the Company from intermediaries over the applicable period and when collection is assured.
The Company recognizes fees for contract services when the fees are fixed and determinable, the related services are performed and collection is assured. The Company evaluates revenue from arrangements that have multiple elements to determine whether the components of the arrangement represent separate units of accounting as defined in the accounting guidance related to revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables.
Deferred revenue, including advance license fees, which will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period, is recorded as current deferred revenue and any remaining portion is recorded as long-term deferred revenue.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Collaborative Arrangements
Contractual arrangements fall within the scope of ASC 808-10, Collaborative Arrangements, if the arrangement requires the parties to be active participants and the arrangement exposes the parties to significant risks and rewards that are tied to the commercial success of the endeavor. Collaborative agreement revenues may include both contract research revenue and license revenue. Nonrefundable up-front license fees where the Company has continuing involvement through research and development collaboration are initially deferred and recognized as collaborative agreement license revenue over the estimated period for which the Company continues to have a performance obligation. Nonrefundable amounts received for shared development costs are recognized as contract revenue in the period in which the related expenses are incurred.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments.
The Company does not have any financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Property and Equipment
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The depreciable life of leasehold improvements is the shorter of the lease term or the useful life. Upon asset retirement or other disposition, cost and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any gain or loss is included in the consolidated statements of operations. Amounts expended for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
Software Product and Content Development Costs
Software product and content development expenditures include costs incurred in the development, enhancement and maintenance of software technology and content. These costs are charged to expense as incurred. Production costs after technological feasibility are not expected to be material and other computer software and content maintenance costs related to software and content development are expensed as incurred.
Facility Exit Liability
The Company accounted for an unused operating office lease in accordance with ASC 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. The lease expired in March, 2012.
Comprehensive Loss
Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and other gains and losses affecting stockholders’ equity that under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from reported net loss. There were no differences between net loss and comprehensive loss for any of the periods presented.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718, Share-Based Payment, and ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. ASC 718 requires measurement of all employee stock-based awards using a fair-value method and recording of related compensation expense in the financial statements over the requisite service period. Further, as required under ASC 718, the Company estimates forfeitures for stock-based awards that are not expected to vest. Under ASC 505-50, options or stock awards issued to non-employees who are not directors of the Company are recorded at the estimated fair value of the stock options issued at the measurement date. Non-employee options are periodically revalued as the options vest so the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date performance is complete with such expense recognized over the related service period on a graded vesting method.
The Company accounts for the fair value of each option grant by estimating on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model including assumptions pertaining to expected life, interest rate, volatility and dividend yield. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of a peer group until the Company has sufficient history. The expected life of options granted represents an estimate of the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding, which is shorter than the term of the option. In addition, the Company is required to calculate estimated forfeiture rates on an ongoing basis that impact the amount of share-based compensation costs it will record. If the estimates used to calculate the fair value for employee stock options differ from actual results, or actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, the Company may be required to record gains or losses that could be material.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The Company’s losses for the periods presented cause the inclusion of potential common stock instruments outstanding to be antidilutive. At September 30, 2012 and 2011, a total of 1,781,814 and 1,786,617, respectively, of potentially dilutive securities consisting of options and warrants were not used for any computation of dilution for each period then ended as they would have been antidilutive.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company provides a full valuation reserve related to its net deferred tax assets. In the future, if sufficient evidence of an ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions becomes apparent, the Company may be required to reduce the valuation allowances, resulting in income tax benefits in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company evaluates the realizability of the deferred tax assets and assesses the need for valuation allowance quarterly. The utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards could be substantially limited due to restrictions imposed under federal and state laws upon a change in ownership in the future. The Company has experienced various ownership changes as a result of past financings and could experience future ownership changes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A number of new authoritative accounting standards have been issued during recent months that have been evaluated by the Company and determined not to have a material effect on the financial position and results of operations of the Company. Those recent accounting standards that could potentially have an impact if or when adopted are listed and discussed below:
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. This update requires improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either offset or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not expect the adoption to have an impact on its financial results.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment,” which allows companies to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary, similar in approach to the goodwill impairment test. The new guidance allows an entity the option to first assess qualitatively whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50) that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, thus necessitating that it perform the quantitative impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if the financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. The Company will adopt the provisions of this new guidance on October 1, 2012. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements. The amendments in this Update cover a wide range of topics. The update addresses issues that either (1) clarify the Codification or correct unintended application of guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice, or (2) are more substantive, limited-scope improvements. The amendments in this Update that will not have transition guidance are effective upon issuance. The amendments that are subject to transition guidance are effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company does not expect the adoption to have an impact on its financial results.

4. Real Estate
At the time of the Merger, RGHS, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, owned three real estate properties held for investment and valued at $2,245,000. The three properties were recorded at management’s estimated fair value. The properties were held as an investment and evaluated for impairment at each reporting date. In June 2010 management determined that the guidance of ASC 820-10-35-51A-D, Determining Fair Value When The Volume And Level Of Activity For The Asset Or Liability Have Significantly Decreased was applicable and reduced the carrying value of the real estate to $850,000 net of an allowance of $50,000 for the costs to sell in accordance with a reclassification to held for sale. In October 2010 management entered into an agreement, with an entity controlled by a former director, to sell the real estate on an installment basis at a price of $900,000 (all paid by January 2011) and issued warrants to purchase up to 150,000 shares of the common stock at $2.50 per share for a term of five years (the “Warrants”) as an inducement. Management recorded in September 2010 an impairment charge to further reduce the carrying value of the real estate to $696,625, which reduced the costs to sell to $25,000 and included $178,375 for the value of the warrants.

In September 2011 the Company entered into Agreements with certain stockholders and directors to convert $120,000 of notes payable and accrued interest of $72,464 into shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share or an aggregate of 192,464 shares of common stock.
8. Stockholders’ Deficit
The Company has 20,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 authorized and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001, authorized. No preferred shares are outstanding.
The historical consolidated financial statements also reflect the impact of the change in capital structure that resulted from the Merger as if that capital structure was in place as of April 11, 2005 (date of inception) and for all subsequent periods presented. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the period from April 11, 2005 (date of inception) to September 30, 2012 have been adjusted to reflect the current capital structure of the Company. In financial statements published prior to the Merger, references to the previous capital structure were to members’ capital rather than stockholders’ equity.
9. Stock Options and Stock Purchase Warrants
Stock Option Plan
In February 2010, the Board and Stockholders of RGHS approved the Stock Incentive Plan of 2010 (the “2010 Incentive Plan”) authorizing the grant of equity-based incentives to employees and consultants including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units, restricted stock, stock awards and other awards on the lesser of (a) on a cumulative basis 15% of the aggregate shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding at any grant date (currently limited to the maximum 1,400,000 shares) or (b) 1,400,000 shares. The Incentive Plan terminates in February 2020.
NxOpinion had no option plans prior to the Merger. The Company continued 25,012 legacy options under ASI’s 2000 Plan at the Merger and the 2000 Plan has expired as to new grants.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s employee stock options have various restrictions that reduce option value, including vesting provisions and restrictions on transfer, among others, and may be exercised prior to their contractual maturity.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the estimated fair value of each option as of its grant date. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. The following table sets forth the significant assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model and the calculation of stock-based compensation cost (annualized percentages):
Year Ended September 30, 2012 | Year Ended September 30, 2011 | |||||||
Expected volatility | 117.00% | 73.02% | ||||||
Risk-free interest rate | 1.00% | 1.60% | ||||||
Forfeiture rate | 0.0% | - | 5.0% | 0.0% | - | 5.0% | ||
Dividend yield | 0.00% | 0.00% | ||||||
Expected life in years | 5 | 4.48 |
Since the Company’s stock is not actively traded, management estimates its expected volatility by reviewing the historical volatility of the common stock of a group of selected peer public companies that operate in similar industries and are similar in terms of stage of development or size and then projecting this information toward its future expected results. Judgment was used in selecting these companies, as well as in evaluating the available historical volatility for these peer companies. The risk-free interest rate is based on rates published by the Federal Reserve Board. The dividend yield of zero is because the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. The Company has a small number of option grants and no significant exercise history and accordingly has for all new option grants applied the simplified method prescribed by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, Share-Based Payment: Certain Assumptions Used in Valuation Methods - Expected Term, to estimate expected life (computed as vesting term plus contractual term divided by two). An estimated forfeiture rate was derived from the Company’s historical employee data and its estimates of the likely future actions of option holders. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of the grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates or if the Company updates its estimated forfeiture rate. Such amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period in which the estimate is changed.
The Company recorded $184,539 and $656,353 of stock compensation expense for the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee and consultant stock options granted during the year ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1.22 per share and $1.82 per share, respectively.
As of September 30, 2012 total estimated compensation cost of options granted but not yet vested was approximately $44,653 and is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 0.6 years.

11. Operating Lease
The Company previously had an operating lease for office space at 4215 Fashion Square Blvd., Suite 3, Saginaw, Michigan. The Company exited the space in March 2012. Rent expense during the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $42,975 and $85,950, respectively.
12. Income Taxes
The Company has incurred losses for each of the periods since its inception. The tax attributes of the legal acquirer (RGHS) prior to the merger included approximately $2,950,000 of net operating losses whose benefits will be substantially limited due to the change in ownership. Those prior Merger losses and losses of the Company after the Merger since being taxable as a corporation have been recorded as a deferred tax asset with an offsetting valuation allowance as the losses are not more likely than not to be utilized prior to their expiration. Accordingly, no tax provision or benefit was recognized during each of the periods presented.
Differences between the income tax provision (benefit) computed at the statutory federal income tax rate and per the consolidated statements of operations are summarized as follows:
Year Ended September 30, | Year Ended September 30, | |||||||
Income taxes (benefit) computed at federal statutory rate | $ | (404,000 | ) | $ | (955,000 | ) | ||
Permanent book-tax differences | 52,000 | 64,000 | ||||||
Deferred income tax valuation allowance | 352,000 | 891,000 | ||||||
Income tax provision | $ | - | $ | - |
Deferred federal income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:
September 30, | ||||||||
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Deferred tax assets | ||||||||
Net operating loss carryforwards | $ | 3,008,000 | $ | 2,664,000 | ||||
Stock-based compensation | 364,000 | 345,000 | ||||||
Accruals and other | 47,000 | 58,000 | ||||||
3,419,000 | 3,067,000 | |||||||
Deferred tax liabilities | ||||||||
Depreciation and amortization | (1,000 | ) | (1,000 | ) | ||||
3,418,000 | 3,066,000 | |||||||
Valuation allowances for deferred tax assets | (3,418,000 | ) | (3,066,000 | ) | ||||
Net deferred taxes | $ | - | $ | - |
As of September 30, 2012, the Company had federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $8,848,000. These losses will expire in years 2025 through 2032 and the use of any such NOLs may be subject to substantial annual limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions, due to changes in ownership of the Company that have occurred previously and may occur in the future.
The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance against the value of all deferred tax assets at September 30, 2012 due to the uncertainty of realizing these assets in the future. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
In June 2006, the FASB issued guidance in regard to the recognition of tax benefits for positions claimed or to be claimed in tax returns. Management has evaluated the tax positions claimed and expected to be claimed in its tax returns and has concluded that all positions are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by applicable taxing authorities. Management has also concluded that no liability for uncertain tax positions should be recorded as of September 30, 2012. The Company is subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for tax years through 2012, subject to the statute of limitations. The Company has no income tax examinations in process.
13. Related Party Transactions
Since its formation, the Company has contracted with Robertson Research Institute (“RRI”), a nonprofit entity organized under Section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code, for software and content development and corporate operational services including personnel, occupancy and other vendor costs. After the Merger, the Company transitioned these services back to the Company. These services are billed to the Company by RRI on a flow-through basis and at cost with certain personnel costs allocated based on percentage of time spent on Company efforts. Certain expenses continue to be paid by RRI and are charged to the Company at cost as incurred.
During the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 the Company incurred costs billed by RRI detailed as follows:
Year Ended September 30, | ||||||||
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Computer and software | $ | 588 | $ | 5,105 | ||||
Dues and subscriptions | 5,550 | - | ||||||

Interest | 11,269 | 7,800 | ||||||
Marketing | - | 874 | ||||||
Occupancy | - | 7,826 | ||||||
Personnel and benefits | - | 77 | ||||||
Professional fees | 2,719 | 5,355 | ||||||

Other | 10,288 | 24,956 | ||||||
$ | 55,231 | $ | 129,392 |
These amounts are included in the appropriate functional line items in the Company’s statement of operations. Amounts payable to RRI for such services at September 30, 2012 and 2011 are listed in Note 5.
After the Merger, certain employees have been contracted on an as needed basis by Robertson Wellness, LLC (“RW”), a company owned by the Company’s CEO, Dr. Joel Robertson. These personnel costs are allocated to RW at cost based on percentage of time spent on RW efforts. The total amount allocated to RW during the years ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 was $48,829 and $39,241, respectively. Amounts receivable from RW at September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $92,061 and $47,031, respectively.
