Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The information furnished in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. Although management believes the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.

Revenue Recognition — In general, the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues are generated as services are provided to the customer based on the sales price agreed and collected. The Company recognizes revenue as the time is worked or as units of production are completed, which is when the revenue is earned and realized. Labor costs are recognized as the costs are incurred. The Company derives its revenue from the sale of Managed Care Services, Review Services, Case Management Services and Lien Representation Services. These services may be sold individually or in combination. When a sale combines multiple elements, the Company accounts for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements in accordance with the guidance included in ASC 605-25, the services, however, are typically billed as separate components in accordance with the customer’s service agreement.

These fees include monthly administration fees, claim network fees, flat rate fees or hourly fees depending on the agreement with the client. Such revenue is recognized at the end of each month for which services are performed.

Management reviews each agreement in accordance with the provision of the revenue recognition topic ASC 605 that addresses multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The multiple-deliverable arrangements entered into consist of bundled managed care which includes various units of accounting such as network solutions and patient management which includes managed care. Such elements are considered separate units of accounting due to each element having value to the customer on a stand-alone basis. The selling price for each unit of accounting is determined using contract price. When the Company’s customers purchase several products the pricing of the products sold is generally the same as if the products were sold on an individual basis. Revenue is recognized as the work is performed in accordance with the Company’s customer contracts. Based upon the nature of the Company’s products, bundled managed care elements are generally delivered in the same accounting period. The Company recognizes revenue for patient management services ratably over the life of the customer contract. Based on prior experience in managed care, the Company estimates the deferral amount from when the customer’s claim is received to when the customer contract expires. Advance payments from subscribers and billings made in advance are recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue.

Accounts Receivables and Bad Debt Allowance – In the normal course of business the Company extends credit to its customers on a short-term basis. Although the credit risk associated with these customers is minimal, the Company routinely reviews its accounts receivable balances and makes provisions for doubtful accounts. The Company ages its receivables by date of invoice. Management reviews bad debt reserves quarterly and reserves specific accounts as warranted or sets up a general reserve based on amounts over 90 days past due. When an account is deemed uncollectible, the Company charges off the receivable against the bad debt reserve. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of these receivables including the current creditworthiness of each customer and related aging of the past-due balances, including any billing disputes. In order to assess the collectability of these receivables, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Through these evaluations, the Company may become aware of a situation where a customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial viability, credit ratings or bankruptcy. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the best information available to the Company and is reevaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The Company evaluates the allowance based on historical write-off experience, the size of the individual customer balances, past-due amounts and the overall national economy. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our bad debt reserve of $67,260 and $40,510, respectively as a general reserve for certain balances over 90 days past due and for accounts that are potentially uncollectible.

Table of Contents

The percentages of the amounts due from major customers to total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

	9/30/15			12/31/14
Customer A		38	%		25	%
Customer B		20	%		22	%

Reclassifications – Certain 2014 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. The reclassifications have had no effect on the financial position, operations or cash flows for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

NOTE 2 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On September 4, 2015, our board of directors declared a special one-time cash dividend of $1.25 per share payable to the record holders of our common stock on September 14, 2015. On September 14, 2015, excluding treasury shares, we had 794,072 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. The payment date of the dividend was September 24, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, the amount paid from the dividend was $859,170 with $133,420 payable. This payable has been accrued and included in dividend payable on the balance sheet.

NOTE 3 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In a letter dated October 23, 2015, AmTrust North America (“AmTrust”), who is the Company’s largest customer, notified the Company it is terminating the services provided by the Company effective 60 days from the date of the letter. The reason given in the termination letter was due to AmTrust’s changing business needs. Under the Company’s current contract, the Company provides UR, NCM and MPN services to AmTrust. The loss of this customer will significantly impact the Company’s profitability and liquidity until such time as the Company is able to replace the revenues generated from this customer. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 UR, NCM and MPN fees generated from this customer were $2,223,965, $563, and $58,140, respectively. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 UR, NCM and MPN fees generated from this customer were $1,426,760, $0, and $40,205. For the fiscal year 2014 we recorded revenues totaling $1,804,095 for all services provided to AmTrust.

Ite m 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Statements and Results of Operations

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. For this purpose any statement contained in this report that is not a statement of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking, including statements about our revenue, spending, cash flow, products, trends, expectations, actions, intentions, plans, strategies and objectives. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “ may ,” “ hope ,” “ will ,” “ expect ,” “ believe ,” “ anticipate ,” “ estimate, ” “ project” or “ continue ” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainty, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industry in which we and our customers participate; competition within our industry, including competition from much larger competitors; merger and acquisition activities; legislative requirements or changes which could render our services less competitive or obsolete; our failure to successfully develop new services and/or products or to anticipate current or prospective customers’ needs; price increases or employee limitations; and completions, delays, reductions, or cancellations of contracts we have previously entered.

Forward-looking statements are predictions and not guarantees of future performance or events. The forward-looking statements are based on current industry, financial and economic information, which we have assessed but which, by its nature, is dynamic and subject to rapid and possibly abrupt changes. Our actual results could differ materially from those stated or implied by such forward-looking statements due to risks and uncertainties associated with our business. We hereby qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. We undertake no obligation to amend this report or revise publicly these forward-looking statements (other than pursuant to reporting obligations imposed on registrants pursuant to the Exchange Act) to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the Commission.

Throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, unless the context indicates otherwise, the terms, “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company” refer to Pacific Health Care Organization, Inc., (“PHCO”) and our wholly-owned subsidiaries Medex Healthcare, Inc. (“Medex”), Industrial Resolutions Coalition, Inc. (“IRC”), Medex Managed Care, Inc. (“MMC”), Medex Medical Management, Inc. (“MMM”) and Medex Legal Support, Inc., (“MLS”).

Overview

We are a specialty workers’ compensation managed care company providing a range of services for self-administered employers, insurers, third party administrators, municipalities and others. Our clients are primarily located in the state of California, although we have processed bill reviews in 13 other states from our customers as well. Workers’ compensation costs continue to increase due to rising medical costs, inflation, fraud and other factors. Medical and indemnity costs associated with workers’ compensation in the state California are billions of dollars annually. Our focus goes beyond the medical cost of claims. Our goal is to reduce the entire cost of the claim, including medical, legal and administrative costs. As noted above, through our subsidiary companies we provide a range of effective workers’ compensation cost containment services, including but not limited to:

Health Care Organizations (“HCOs”)

Medical Provider Networks (“MPNs”)

HCO + MPN

Workers’ Compensation Carve-Outs

Utilization Review (“UR”)

Medical Bill Review (“MBR”)

Nurse Case Management (“NCM”)

Lien Representation Services

According to recent studies conducted by auditing bodies on behalf of the California Division of Workers’ Compensation, (“DWC”) the two most significant cost drivers for workers’ compensation are claims frequency and medical treatment costs. It is the latter that our services impact.

As of 2014, California (with the highest claims costs in the nation per claim) costs for workers’ compensation claims are 188% above the median for all states, and 33% higher than the number two state, Connecticut. Medical costs per claim have risen since 2005 by $30,000 per claim. The use of the highly administered Company medical cost control tools listed above greatly diminishes costs for unnecessary and prolonged medical treatment. In addition, our network of specially selected and overseen providers are competent in returning injured workers back to modified or full duty in the most expeditious manner, thus saving costs for temporary disability payments.

Table of Contents

While the goal of services performed by the Company is to deliver the highest quality of timely medical care under state guidelines, we also focus on ensuring that the provision of such care significantly reduces the costs associated with payment for claims.

Health Care Organizations

HCOs are networks of health care professionals specializing in the treatment of workplace injuries and in back-to-work rehabilitation and training. HCOs were created to appeal to employees, while providing substantial savings to the employer clients. In most cases, the HCO program gives the employer client 180 days of medical control in a provider network within which the employer client has the ability to direct the claim. The injured worker may change physicians once, but may not leave the network. The increased length of time during which the employer has control over the claim is designed to decrease the incidence of fraudulent claims and disability awards and is also based upon the notion that if there is more control over medical treatment there will be more control over getting injured workers back on the job and therefore, more control over the cost of claims and workers’ compensation premiums.

Our subsidiary Medex holds two HCO licenses. Through these licenses we cover the entire state of California. We offer injured workers a choice of enrolling in an HCO with a network managed by primary care providers requiring referrals to specialists or a second HCO where injured workers do not need any prior authorization to be seen and treated by specialists.

Our two HCO networks have contracted with over 3,900 individual providers and clinics, as well as hospitals, pharmacies, rehabilitation centers and other ancillary services enabling our HCOs to provide comprehensive medical services throughout California. We are continually developing these networks based upon the nominations of new clients and the approvals of their claims administrators. Provider credentialing is performed by Medex.

HCO guidelines impose certain medical oversight, reporting, information delivery and usage fees upon HCOs. These requirements increase the administrative costs and obligations on HCOs as compared to MPNs, although the obligations and cost differentials are not currently as substantial as they were in the past.

Medical Provider Networks

Like an HCO, an MPN is a network of health care professionals, but MPN networks do not require the same level of medical expertise in treating work place injuries. Under an MPN program the employer client dictates which physician the injured employee will see for the initial visit. Thereafter, the employee can choose to treat with any physician within the MPN network. Under the MPN program, however, for as long as the employee seeks treatment for his injury, he can only seek treatment from physicians within the MPN network.

Under the MPN program the employee must stay within the MPN network for treatment. The employer client has full control over the initial treatment before the employee can treat with anyone in the network. Because the employee must stay within the network, this provides the employer client some control. The MPN statute and regulations does allow injured workers to dispute treatment decisions, leading to second and third opinions, and also provides for a review by an independent medical reviewer, whose decision can result in the employer client losing medical control.

Unlike HCOs, MPNs are not assessed annual fees and have no annual enrollment notice delivery requirements. As a result, there are fewer administrative costs associated with an MPN program, which allows MPNs to market their services at a lower cost than HCOs. For this reason, many clients opt to use the less complicated MPN even though the employer client has less control over employee claims.

HCO + MPN

As a licensed HCO and MPN, in addition to offering HCO and MPN programs, we are also able to offer our clients a combination of the HCO and MPN programs. Under this plan model an employer can enroll its employees in the HCO program, and then prior to the expiration of the 90-day or 180-day treatment period under the HCO program, the employer can enroll the employee into the MPN program. This allows employers to take advantage of both programs. We believe that we are currently the only entity that offers both programs together in a combination program.

Workers’ Compensation Carve-outs

Through IRC we seek to create legal agreements for the implementation of Workers’ Compensation Carve-Outs for California employers with collective bargaining units and the administration of such programs within the statutory and regulatory requirements. The California legislature permits employers and employees to engage in collective bargaining over alternative systems to resolve disputes in the workers’ compensation context. These systems are called carve-outs because the employers and employees covered by such collective bargaining agreements are carved out from the state workers’ compensation system.

Utilization Review

Utilization review includes utilization review or utilization management functions that prospectively, retrospectively, or concurrently review and approve, modify, delay, or deny, based in whole or in part on medical necessity to cure and relieve, treatment recommendations by physicians, prior to, retrospectively, or concurrently with the provision of such medical treatment services pursuant to California Workers’ Compensation law, or other jurisdictional statutes.

We provide UR to self-insured clients, insurance companies and public entities through MMC. UR helps to reduce costs for the payer and determine if the recommended treatment is appropriate. MMC offers automated review services that can cut the overhead costs of our clients and increase payer savings. Our UR staff is experienced in the workers’ compensation industry and dedicated to providing a high standard of customer service.

Medical Bill Review

Medical bill review refers to professional analysis of medical provider, services, or equipment billing to ascertain the proper reimbursement. Such services include, but are not limited to, coding review and rebundling, customary and reasonableness review, fee schedule analysis, out-of-network bill review, pharmacy review, PPO management, and repricing.

In connection with our MBR services, we provide bill review (cost containment) services to self-insured employers, insurance companies and the public sector to help reduce medical expenses paid by our customers through MMC. In providing these services we provide network savings on top of State Fee Schedule savings allowing top provider networks to achieve savings.

We offer our clients quick turnaround, state of the art software and the expertise of our bill review staff. We are committed to service and believe the reputation of our staff sets us apart from our competition.

Nurse Case Management

Nurse case management is a collaborative process that assesses plans, implements, coordinates, monitors and evaluates the options and services required to meet an injured worker’s health needs. Our nurse case managers use communication and available resources to promote quality, cost-effective outcomes with the goal of returning the injured worker to gainful employment and maximum medical improvement as soon as medically appropriate.

Our credentialed registered nurses have expertise in various clinical areas and extensive backgrounds in workers’ compensation. This combination allows our nurses the opportunity to facilitate medical treatment while understanding the nuances of workers’ compensation up to and including litigation. By providing these services through MMM, we contribute to effective delivery of medical treatment assuring the injured worker receives quality treatment in a timely and appropriate manner to return the worker to gainful employment.

Lien Representation

We reinstated our lien representation services through MLS during the fourth quarter of 2014. There were two reasons for this decision: 1) in 2014 lien activation fees were declared unconstitutional by California courts, as a result the number of significant lien filings are increasing; 2) in November 2014 we were retained by a public sector employer to provide lien representation services. We retained a lien defense unit manager and a hearing representative in January 2015 with plans to expand our lien representation operations during 2015. During September 2015, our lien defense unit manager and lien defense administrator resigned. The vacant positions were filled in October 2015 by two existing personnel within the Company.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenue

During the three month period ended September 30, 2015 total revenues decreased 25% to $2,069,581 compared to $2,752,516 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014. For the three month period ended September 30, 2015 UR, MBR, MPN and NCM revenues decreased by 25%, 61%, 21%, and 11%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2014 while HCO and Other revenues were higher by 5% and 66%, respectively.

As of September 30, 2015 we had approximately 453,000 total enrollees in our HCO and MPN programs. Enrollment consisted of approximately 142,000 HCO enrollees and 311,000 MPN enrollees. By comparison as of September 30, 2014 we had approximately 638,000 total enrollees, including approximately 85,000 HCO enrollees and 553,000 MPN enrollees. Many of our HCO and MPN clients also use the other services we offer, but we also have customers that don’t use our HCO or MPN services.

Table of Contents

Our business generally has a long sales cycle, typically in excess of one year. Once we have established a customer relationship, our revenue, particularly our HCO and MPN revenues adjusts with the growth or retraction of our customers’ managed headcount volume. New customers are added throughout the year and other customers terminate from the program for a variety of reasons.

In the current economic environment, we anticipate businesses will continue to seek ways to reduce their workers’ compensation program costs. Even though the HCO and MPN programs have been shown to create a favorable return on investment for employers, (as our services are a significant component of the employers’ loss prevention programs), it is always a challenge to justify our fees to our customers. In order to convince employers that the fees they pay us are well-spent, we must continue to provide a framework for expeditiously returning employees back to work at the lowest cost. As a result, we may experience some client turnover in the form of existing employer clients seeking to terminate or renegotiate the scope and terms of existing services. We also anticipate our market may shrink as some employers seek to reduce their costs by managing their workers’ compensation care services in-house.

UR Fees

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 UR revenues decreased by $334,390 to $1,027,893 when compared to the same period a year earlier. Commencing in March 2014 we began providing overflow utilization review services to a third-party partner to assist them in reducing their backlog. This third-party partner contributed $1,184,270 towards our overall UR revenues during the 2014 fiscal year. On February 28, 2015 we were notified by our third-party partner that their backlog overflow business was caught up. While they have not terminated their service agreement with us, we have received no overflow business from this third-party partner since that time. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2014 we recorded $632,130 of this overflow revenue. We recorded $0 overflow revenue from this third-party partner during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015. Currently we have no way to predict whether the third-party partner will build up a backlog in the future, and if it does, whether it will again retain us to help it work through any such backlog.

Excluding UR fees generated from our third-party partner, during the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we generated $1,027,893 and $730,153 of UR fee revenue, respectively. This increase of $297,740 was a result of AmTrust increasing its UR volume, which was partially offset by fewer numbers of UR bills submitted by several of our other customers.

As discussed in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, in a letter dated October 23, 2015, AmTrust, our largest customer, notified us that it will be terminating the services we provide them effective 60 days from the date of the letter. The loss of this customer and our third-party partner will have a significant negative impact on our revenue, profitability and liquidity until such time as we are able to replace the revenue generated from these customers. With the impending loss of AmTrust business in December 2015, we anticipate UR fees and total revenues will be significantly impacted as early as our fourth fiscal quarter of 2015 and throughout 2016. During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 UR fees generated from AmTrust were approximately $794,235 and $440,225, respectively.

MBR Fees

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 MBR revenues decreased by $324,438 to $201,903 when compared to the same period a year earlier. As previously reported, in October 2014 Companion Property and Casualty Insurance Company (“Companion”), one of our significant customers, notified us that subject to certain closing conditions, including necessary governmental and regulatory approvals, it would be acquired by Enstar Group Limited (“Enstar”). Enstar announced the completion of this acquisition on January 27, 2015. We anticipated Enstar would take in-house all of the business Companion had been outsourcing to MMC. Effective June 1, 2015, Companion ceased using our MBR services. As a result of this transaction, we had no MBR fee revenues from Companion during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015. For the same period in 2014 we recorded MBR revenues totaling $311,249 from Companion. As a result of the loss of Companion as a customer, we anticipate MBR fees will be significantly lower throughout the remainder of fiscal 2015 compared to fiscal 2014. While the loss of Companion will have a significant negative impact on total MBR fee revenue in 2015, setting aside the loss of Companion as a customer, MBR fees from our other MBR customers have decreased by approximately 6% during the three months ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014. We will continue our efforts to expand sales to existing MBR customers and to attract new MBR customer in our efforts to, at least partially, replace the lost revenue from Companion.

HCO Fees

HCO employee enrollment was 67% higher during the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period 2014, while HCO fees increased 5% to $273,089. HCO employee enrollment fluctuates throughout the year. As new employees are enrolled or existing employees are renewed, we generate HCO annual notification fees. During the second quarter 2015, one existing customer increased its employee enrollment by approximately 71%, which is the principal reason for the higher HCO employee enrollment during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The annual notification fees were earned in second fiscal quarter 2015. Therefore, increases and decreases in HCO employee enrollment may not directly correspond to increases and total HCO fee revenue.

MPN Fees

MPN fee revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $224,128 compared to $285,415 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $61,287. The decline in MPN revenues of 22% resulted mainly from the loss of one of our major MPN customer in July 2015. The loss of this customer impacted our MPN revenues by approximately $132,978 during our 2015 third quarter when compared to the same quarter in 2014. This decrease of $132,978 was partially offset by increases of approximately $71,691 in MPN revenues from new and existing customers which resulted in the net decrease of $61,287. Correspondingly, for the three months ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014, MPN enrollment decreased by approximately 242,000 to 311,000, resulting primarily from the loss of this customer.

As discussed in this report, AmTrust, will cease using our MPN services in December 2015. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 AmTrust contributed $30,345 and $17,400 in MPN fee revenues, respectively. MPN enrollment will be negatively impacted by approximately 106,000 enrollees with the pending loss of AmTrust. With the loss of AmTrust, we expect MPN revenues to be lower beginning as early as the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and throughout 2016 unless we are able to add new customers.

NCM Fees

During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, NCM revenues were $216,216 and $242,376, respectively. The decrease in revenue of $26,160 was primarily the result of fewer numbers of claims filed by our customers’ enrollees which reduced the number of cases we processed during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 NCM fees generated from AmTrust were minimal, so we do not anticipate the loss of the AmTrust business to have a significant impact on NCM fee revenue in future periods.

Other Fees

Other fees consist of revenues derived from lien service and network access and claims repricing services. Revenues for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $126,352 and $76,032 respectively.

Network Access and Repricing Fees

Our network access and claims repricing fees are generated from various customers who have access to our network and split with Medex the cost savings generated from their PPO. Revenues for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $119,474 and $76,032 respectively. The increase of $43,442 was primarily the result of one customer having higher savings realized from using our network.

Lien Representation Fees

During the quarter ended September 30, 2015 we recorded lien representation fees totaling $6,878 compared to none during the same period a year earlier. MLS commenced offering lien representation services in February 2012, but scaled back its operations in January 2013 as a result of the potential negative impact of Senate Bill 863. Based on changes made by the DWC, MLS reinstated its lien representation services during the fourth quarter 2014. There were two reasons for our decision: 1) lien activation fees have been declared unconstitutional by the California courts, so the number of significant lien filings is increasing; 2) in November 2014 a public sector employer retained MLS to provide it lien representation services. At this time there is no assurance that lien representation fees will continue to grow at rates currently being realized. The lien manager and lien administrative assistant resigned in September 2015 and were replaced by transferring personnel from MMC.

Expenses

Total expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $1,300,552 and $1,801,040, respectively. The decrease of $500,488 was the result of decreases in bad debt provision, salaries and wages, professional fees, outsource service fees and data maintenance expense, partially offset by increases in depreciation, consulting fees, insurance and general and administrative.

Bad Debt Provision

During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we recorded bad debt expense of $9,750 and $15,851, respectively. The decrease of $6,101 in bad debt expense was the result of lower uncollectible receivables.

Table of Contents

Consulting Fees

During the three months ended September 30, 2015 consulting fees increased to $90,063 from $76,790 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. This increase of $13,273 was primarily the result of increased IT fees and increases in other consulting fees.

Salaries and Wages

Salaries and wages decreased $143,430 or 21% to $555,666 during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 compared to $699,096 during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in salaries and wages was due to terminations partially offset by new hires and salary increases. Medex hired a vice president of operations in August 2015. In June 2015 the operational manager of MMC resigned. We terminated an HCO manager and a marketing coordinator in August 2015. During the second half of 2014, to handle the spike in demand for utilization review services, MMC hired 14 new employees, of those 14, 2 remain with MMC as of the date of this report. Additionally, MLS terminated two employees in September 2015. The Company employed 35 and 48 full time employee as of September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Professional Fees

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 we incurred professional fees of $99,418 compared to $109,871 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. This 10% decrease in fees was primarily the result of lower professional fees paid for field case services which was partially offset by higher legal fees.

Insurance

During the three months ended September 30, 2015 we incurred insurance expenses of $83,283, a $1,128 increase over the three-month period ended September 30, 2014. The increase was the result of increased group health, vision and dental insurance costs. We do not expect a material increase during the remainder of this fiscal year.

Outsource Service Fees

Outsource service fees consist of costs incurred in outsourcing UR and MBR services and certain NCM services. We do not, at this time, have enough volume to justify creating our own UR and MBR in-house staff. Instead, we utilize outside vendors to provide specific services for our clients, charging additional fees over and above those paid to our outside vendors for administration and coordination of UR, MBR and NCM services directly to the clients. Typically our outsource service fees increase and decrease in correspondence with the level of MBR and UR services, and some NCM services, we provide to our customers. In times when the level of MBR or UR services rendered increases, we typically experience higher outsource service fees, and when the level of services we render decreases, we typically experience lower outsource service fees. We incurred $295,507 and $658,233 in outsource service fees during the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease of $362,726 was mainly the result of the decrease in outsourced UR work from the overflow business from our third-party partner and the loss of Companion in June 2015. We anticipate an additional significant decrease in outsource service fees in 2016 as a result of the loss of AmTrust business starting in December 2015.

Data Maintenance

During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 data maintenance fees were $11,819 and $12,953 respectively. The decrease in data maintenance fees was primarily attributable to decreased levels of renewals from existing customers during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period a year earlier.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased 4% to $139,035 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015. This increase of $5,586,was primarily attributable to increases in advertising, dues and subscriptions, IT enhancement, moving expense, shareholders’ expense and miscellaneous general and administrative expenses, partially offset by decreases in equipment rent expense, office rent, travel and entertainment and vacation expense.

Income from Operations

As a result of the $682,935 decrease in total revenue during the three-month period ending September 30, 2015, which was partially offset by the $500,488 decrease in total expenses during the same period, our income from operations decreased $182,447 or 19% during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014.

Table of Contents

Income Tax Provision

We realized income before taxes of $769,023 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2015 compared to $951,218 during the three-month period September 30, 2014. As a result, we realized a $75,811, or 19%, decrease in our income tax provision.

Net Income

Net income for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $449,031 and $555,415, respectively. Based on current information, we expect the trend of lower revenues for the remaining quarter of 2015 to continue when compared to the same periods in 2014 which will also impact our net income. As discussed throughout this report, with the loss of our third-party UR partner in February 2015, Companion, our major MBR customer, in June 2015, one major MPN customer in July 2015 and the anticipated loss of AmTrust in December 2015 we expect the trend of lower revenues to continue throughout 2016.. Although the loss of these customers will substantially impact our net income during the balance of fiscal 2015 and in 2016, the addition of a new MPN customer in April 2015, two significant HCO customers in June 2015, and three MPN customers starting the third quarter 2015 will partially offset the recent customer losses discussed above. Generally, new customers are added throughout the year and other customers terminate from the program for a variety of reasons. We have no assurances that we will continue to add new customers or lose existing customers.

Comparison of the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenue

Total revenues decreased 5% to $6,669,784 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 from $7,079,396 for the same period a year earlier. Compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2014, HCO and Other revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased by 18% and 84%, respectively, while UR, MBR, MPN and NCM revenues were lower by 2%, 41%, 2% and 8%, respectively.

UR Fees

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, UR revenues decreased $59,810 to $3,004,023 when compared to the same period a year earlier. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we recorded $13,355 and $884,925 in overflow revenues, respectively, from our third-party partner, who, as discussed above, resolved its backlog as of the end of February 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 UR fees from our other UR customers increased $811,760. This increase was a result of our largest UR customer, AmTrust, increasing its UR volume partially offset by fewer numbers of UR bills submitted by several of our other customers.

As discussed elsewhere in this report, our largest customer, AmTrust, will be terminating our services on, or about, December 22, 2015. The loss of this customer will have a significant negative impact the Company’s revenue, profitability and liquidity until such time as the Company is able to replace the revenues generated from AmTrust. We anticipate UR fees and total revenues will be significantly impacted beginning as early as the fourth quarter of 2015 and throughout 2016. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, UR revenue fees generated from AmTrust were $2,223,965 and $1,426,760, respectively. Unless we are able to attract additional new customers over the remaining months of fiscal 2015 and during 2016, UR revenues will be considerably lower in those periods compared to the comparable prior year periods.

MBR fees

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 MBR revenues decreased by $589,435 to $855,089 when compared to the same period a year earlier. As a result of the loss of Companion as a customer in June 2015, we anticipate MBR fees will be significantly lower throughout the remainder of fiscal 2015 and into 2016. MBR fee revenue from Companion during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $328,689 and $948,506 or 38% and 66%, of total MBR revenues, respectively. While the loss of Companion has significantly negatively impacted total MBR fee revenue in 2015, MBR fee revenue from our other customers has increased approximately 6% during the first nine months of 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014. We have and will continue our efforts to, at least partially, replace the lost revenue from Companion.

HCO Fees

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 HCO fee revenues were $920,789 and $778,869, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 HCO revenues increased 18% and HCO employee enrollment increased 67% when compared to the same period a year earlier. The increase in HCO fee revenues of $141,920 was primarily attributable to revenues derived from billing an existing customer for its annual HCO enrollment notification fee resulting from the expansion of its HCO program during June 2015.

Table of Contents

MPN Fees

MPN fee revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $779,941 and $797,449, respectively, a decrease of 2%. As mentioned above, in July 2015 we substantially ceased doing all business with a major MPN customer. This customer contributed approximately $542,000 in MPN revenues during the 12 month-period ended December 31, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, this customer contributed MPN fee revenues of $298,222 and $393,037, respectively. MPN enrollment decreased 44% during the first three quarters of 2015 primarily as a result of the loss of this customer.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 AmTrust contributed $58,140 and $40,205 in MPN fee revenues, respectively. With the loss of AmTrust, we anticipate we will lose approximately 106,000 MPN enrollees in December 2015 resulting from the loss of this customer. Unless we have a significant influx of new MPN enrollees, we expect MPN fee revenue to be lower for the duration of fiscal 2015 and in 2016.

NCM Fees

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 NCM revenues were $695,755 and $753,839, respectively. This decrease of $58,084 was result of fewer claims filed by our customers’ enrollees which reduced the number of cases we processed during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 NCM fee revenues generated from AmTrust were minimal.

Other Fees

Other fees during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 consisted of revenues derived primarily from network access and claims repricing services and lien representation fees. Other fee revenues for these periods were $444,187 and $240,882, respectively.

Network Access and Repricing Fees

During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 network access and claims repricing fee revenues generated were $391,892 and $240,882, respectively. This increase of $151,010 or 63% was primarily the result of one customer realizing higher savings by using our network. There is no assurance that the current rate of increase will continue over the remaining months of 2015.

Lien Representation Fees

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we recorded lien representation fees totaling $52,295 compared to none during the same period a year earlier. At this time there is no assurance that lien representation fees will continue to grow at rates currently being realized.

Expenses

Total expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $4,306,261 and $4,504,977, respectively. The decrease of $198,716 was the result of decreases in salaries and wages, professional fees and outsource service fees, partially offset by increases in depreciation, bad debt provision, consulting fees, insurance, data maintenance expense and general and administrative expense.

Bad Debt Provision

During the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2015 and 2014 we recorded a bad debt provision of $26,677 and $24,991, respectively, as a result of potential uncollectible account receivables. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 our allowances for bad debt balances were $67,260 and $40,510, respectively.

Consulting Fees

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 consulting fees increased to $268,588 from $229,010 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This increase of $39,578 was primarily the result of increased IT consultant fees, the addition of a temporary administrative consultant in January 2015 who was terminated after one month of service and annual increases in consulting fees for two consultants in January 2015.

Salaries and Wages

Salaries and wages were $1,874,572 and $1,878,041 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease in salaries and wages of $3,469 was primarily due to a net decrease in employees as detailed above.

Professional Fees

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we incurred professional fees of $315,357 compared to $338,403 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. This 7% decrease in fees was primarily the result of decreased NCM fees partially offset by higher medical consulting fees, legal fees and board of directors’ fees.

Insurance

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we incurred insurance expenses of $256,265, an increase of $31,230 over the same nine-month period of 2014. The increase was mostly the result of increased group health, vision and dental insurance costs resulting from the hiring of new employees in PHCO, Medex, MMC and MMM and increases in our workers’ compensation and network security liability insurance. We do not expect a material increase during the remainder of the 2015 fiscal year.

Outsource Service Fees

As discussed above, outsource service fees consist of costs incurred by our subsidiaries in outsourcing its UR, MBR and NCM services, and typically tend to increase and decrease in correspondence with increases and decreases in UR, MBR and NCM services. We incurred $963,059 and $1,324,248 in outsource service fees during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease of $361,189 was largely the result of the decreased number of UR and MBR reviews conducted by our outsource service providers, resulting primarily from loss business for our third-party UR partner and Companion as discussed above. We anticipate our outsource service fees will continue to move in correspondence with the level of UR, MBR and NCM services we provide in the future. As discussed above, we anticipate significant reduction in outsource service fees as a result of the expected loss of AmTrust business starting in December 2015.

Data Maintenance

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we incurred data maintenance expense of $120,413 and $53,685, respectively or an increase of 124%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 we experienced an HCO employee enrollment increase of 67% when compared to the same period a year earlier. This data maintenance fees increase was primarily attributable to data maintenance fees incurred for an existing customer’s annual HCO enrollment requirements resulting from the expansion of its HCO program locations during June 2015.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased 10% to $436,644 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period of 2014. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to increases in advertising, auto expense, dues and subscription, employment agency fees, equipment repairs, IT enhancement expense, license and permits, moving expense, printing and reproduction expense, equipment rent, shareholders’ expense and travel and entertainment, partially offset by decreases in office supplies, postage and delivery, telephone expense, office rent, vacation expense and miscellaneous general and administrative expense. We expect current levels of general and administrative expenses to marginally increase during the remainder of this fiscal year.

Income from Operations

The 5% decrease in total revenue during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 outpaced the 4% decrease in total expenses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 to result in a 7% decrease in income from operations during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014.

Income Tax Provision

As a result of realizing income before taxes, we made provision for our income tax obligations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Our income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was 7% lower than during the comparable period 2014 to reflect the 7% decrease in income before taxes realized during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The effective tax rate resulting from the income tax provision of 41.61% has remained the same for the comparable periods in 2015 and 2014.

Net Income

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 total revenues of $6,699,784 were lower by $379,612 when compared to the same period in 2014. This decrease in total revenues was partially offset by decreases in total expenses of $198,716 resulting in income from operations of $2,393,523 compared to income from operations of $2,574,419 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. We realized net income of $1,396,373 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to net income of $1,502,641, during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. We anticipate net income through the remainder of fiscal 2015 will be lower compared to fiscal 2014, due to the loss of three major clients during the first nine months of 2015. As discussed in this report, the loss of our third-party UR partner in February 2015, Companion, our major MBR customer, in June 2015, one major MPN customer in July 2015 and the expected loss of AmTrust in December 2015 are the primary reasons we expect our current trend of lower revenues to continue during the remaining quarter of fiscal 2015 and throughout 2016 when compared to the comparable prior year periods. Although the loss of these customers will substantially impact our net income going forward, the addition of a new MPN customer in April 2015, two significant HCO customers in June 2015, and three MPN customers starting the third quarter of 2015 should help to partially offset the recent customer losses. We have no assurances that we will continue to add new customers during the remaining months of 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2015 we had cash on hand of $3,281,140 compared to $2,946,025 at December 31, 2014. The $335,115 increase in cash on hand is primarily the result of net cash provided by our operating activities partially offset by cash used in investing activities and cash used in financing activities. Net cash provided by our operating activities was the result of our net income, decreases in accounts receivable and increases in depreciation, bad debt provision, accrued expenses, dividend payable and unearned revenues, partially offset by decreases in accounts payable, income tax payable and deferred rent expense and increases in prepaid income tax, prepaid expenses and other assets. The $21,280 increase in cash used in investing activities was the result of purchases of computers, furniture and equipment. Cash used in in financing activities increased $1,034,876 as a result of the issuance of a special one-time dividend and the purchase of treasury stock. Barring a significant downturn in the economy or the continued loss of major customers, we believe that cash on hand and anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to cover our operating costs over the next twelve months.

We currently have planned certain capital expenditures during the remainder of fiscal 2015 resulting from our office expansion in September 2015. We do not anticipate this will require us to seek outside sources of funding. We do, however, from time to time, investigate potential opportunities to expand our business either through the creation of new business lines or the acquisition of existing businesses. We have not identified any suitable opportunity at the current time. An expansion or acquisition of this sort may require greater capital resources than we possess. Should we need additional capital resources, we most likely would seek to obtain such through debt and/or equity financing. We do not currently possess an institutional source of financing. There is no assurance that we could be successful in obtaining equity or debt financing on favorable terms, or at all.

On September 1, 2015, based upon the recommendation of management, the board of directors of the Company announced the termination of the Company’s stock repurchase program. Our stock repurchase program was scheduled to expire on November 30, 2015. The board of directors had allocated up to $500,000 for the repurchase of currently issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. As of September 30, 2015, we had repurchased 8,269 shares for approximately $254,057.

On July 23, 2015 we entered into a new 79 month lease (the “New Office Lease”) with our current landlord with the commencement date being September 28, 2015. Prior to July 23, 2015, we leased approximately 5,159 and 1,640 rentable square feet (the “Prior Premises”) located in suites 300 and 375, respectively, consisting of a total of 6,799 rentable square feet. The lease for the Prior Premises was terminated on September 28, 2015. Upon commencement of the New Lease, our lease obligation for suite 375 consisting of 1,640 rentable square feet terminated and is no longer in effect. To replace suite 375, we leased suite 350 consisting of 4,280 rentable square feet (the “Expansion Premises”). Under the terms of the New Office Lease, we now lease suite 300 and the Expansion Premises, for a total of 9,439 rentable square feet (the “Combined Premises”). The Combined Premises will serve as our principal executive offices, as well as, the principal offices of our operating subsidiaries, Medex, IRC, MLS, MMM and MMC.

In August 2012 we entered into a capital lease arrangement whereby we leased office server equipment for $38,380. The asset was recorded on our balance sheet under office equipment under capital lease and our liability incurred under the lease was recorded as current and noncurrent obligations under capital lease. The lease arrangement is for a term of 36 months at level rents with capital interest rate at 7.5%. The term of this capital lease arrangement expired in July 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

As of September 30, 2014 we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

Inflation

We experience pricing pressures in the form of competitive prices. We are also impacted by rising costs for certain inflation-sensitive operating expenses such as labor and employee benefits and facility leases. However, we generally do not believe these impacts are material to our revenues or net income.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the recorded values of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the revenues recognized and expenses incurred during the reporting period. Our estimates and assumptions affect our recognition of deferred expenses, bad debts, income taxes, the carrying value of its long-lived assets and its provision for certain contingencies. We evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions continually based on a combination of historical information and other information that comes to its attention that may vary its outlook for the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions.

We believe the critical accounting policies that most impact our consolidated financial statements are described below.

Basis of Accounting — We use the accrual method of accounting.

Revenue Recognition — In general, we recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues are generated as services are provided to the customer based on the sales price agreed and collected. We recognize revenue as the time is worked or as units of production are completed, which is when the revenue is earned and realized. Labor costs are recognized as the costs are incurred. We derive our revenue from the sale of Managed Care Services, Review Services and Case Management Services. These services may be sold individually or combined. When a sale combines multiple elements, we account for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements in accordance with the guidance included in ASC 605-25.

Management reviews each agreement in accordance with the provision of the revenue recognition topic ASC 605 that addresses multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The multiple-deliverable arrangements entered into consist of bundled managed care which includes various units of accounting such as network solutions and patient management which includes managed care. Such elements are considered separate units of accounting due to each element having value to the customer on a stand-alone basis. The selling price for each unit of accounting is determined using a contract price. When our customers purchase several products the pricing of the products sold is generally the same as if the products were sold on an individual basis. Revenue is recognized as the work is performed in accordance with our customer contracts. Based upon the nature of our products, bundled managed care elements are generally delivered in the same accounting period. We recognize revenue for patient management services ratably over the life of the customer contract. We estimate, based upon prior experience in managed care, the deferral amount from when the customers claim is received to when the customer contract expires. Advance payments from subscribers and billings made in advance are recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue. At September 30, 2015 and 2014 we recognized $40,904 and $0, respectively in billings made in advance, requiring deferral of revenue.

Accounts Receivables and Bad Debt Allowance — In the normal course of business we extend credit to our customers on a short-term basis. Although the credit risk associated with these customers is minimal, we routinely reviews our accounts receivable balances and make provisions for doubtful accounts. We age our receivables by date of invoice. Management reviews bad debt reserves quarterly and reserves specific accounts as warranted or sets up a general reserve based on amounts over 90 days past due. When an account is deemed uncollectible, we charge off the receivable against the bad debt reserve. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of these receivables including the current creditworthiness of each customer and related aging of the past-due balances, including any billing disputes. In order to assess the collectability of these receivables, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. Through these evaluations, we may become aware of a situation where a customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial viability, credit ratings or bankruptcy. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the best information available to us and is reevaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. We evaluate the allowance based on historical write-off experience, the size of the individual customer balances, past-due amounts and the overall national economy. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our bad debt reserve of $67,260 and $40,510, respectively as a general reserve for certain balances over 90 days past due and for accounts that are potentially uncollectible.

The percentages of the amounts due from major customers to total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

	6/30/15			12/31/14
Customer A		38	%		25	%
Customer B		20	%		22	%

Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

It em 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.
