NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Description of Company and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Description of Company
Arcadia Resources, Inc., a Nevada corporation, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a national provider of home care, medical staffing, and pharmacy services operating under the service mark Arcadia HealthCare. In May 2009, the Company disposed of its Home Health Equipment (“HHE”), industrial staffing and retail pharmacy software businesses. Subsequent to these divestitures, the Company operates in three reportable business segments: Home Care/Medical Staffing Services (“Services”), Pharmacy and Catalog. The Company’s corporate headquarters are located in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Company conducts its business from approximately 65 facilities located in 20 states. The Company operates pharmacies in Indiana and Minnesota and has customer service centers in Michigan and Indiana.
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2009, the consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 are unaudited but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position at such dates and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three-month period and six-month period ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on July 14, 2009.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentations including the reflection of discontinued operations separately from continuing operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On July 1, 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification). The Codification became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP, superseding existing accounting pronouncements issued by FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF). The Codification eliminates the previous US GAAP hierarchy and establishes one level of authoritative GAAP. All other literature is considered non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the Codification for the quarter ending September 30, 2009. There was no impact to the consolidated financial results as this change is disclosure-only in nature.
In May 2009, the FASB issued guidelines on subsequent event accounting which sets forth: 1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; 2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and 3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. These guidelines are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and the Company adopted them in the quarter ended June 30, 2009. There was no impact on the consolidated financial results. We evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued, which was November 13, 2009.

Table of Contents

In April 2009, the FASB issued additional requirements regarding interim disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments which were previously only disclosed on an annual basis. Entities are now required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments which are not recorded at fair value in the financial statements in both their interim and annual financial statements. The new requirements were effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 on a prospective basis. The Company adopted these requirements in the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The recorded amounts of the Company’s financial instruments at September 30, 2009 approximate fair value.
On April 1, 2009, the Company adopted the revised FASB guidance regarding business combinations which was required to be applied to business combinations on a prospective basis. The revised guidance requires that the acquisition method of accounting be applied to a broader set of business combinations, amends the definition of a business combination, provides a definition of a business, requires an acquirer to recognize an acquired business at its fair value at the acquisition date and requires the assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination to be measured and recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date (with limited exceptions). There was no impact upon adoption and the effects of this guidance will depend on the nature and significance of business combinations occurring after the effective date.
Note 2 — Management’s Plan
Since fiscal 2008, the Company has been focused on the implementation of a board approved strategic plan designed to focus on expanding certain core businesses; restructuring the Company’s long-term debt; closing or selling non-strategic businesses and assets; improving operating margins; reducing selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses; and establishing a more disciplined approach to cash management. To date, management has made progress in these areas as discussed below.
On March 25, 2009, the Company restructured $24 million of debt with its two largest equity holders and received an additional $3 million in debt financing as part of the transaction. The debt maturity was extended through April 1, 2012, and the Company will continue to have the option to add the accrued interest to the principal balance on a quarterly basis. The debt agreements include a formula for splitting the cash proceeds upon the sale of assets. (See Note 6 — “Long-Term Obligations” for details).
On July 13, 2009, the Company executed an amendment to its line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank. The amendment reduced the total availability from $19 million to $14 million; extended the maturity from October 2009 to August 2011; and increased the interest rate from the prime rate plus 1% to the prime rate plus 2.75%.
In May and June 2009, the Company sold its HHE, industrial staffing and pharmacy software businesses and received an aggregate of $9,157,000 in cash proceeds at the closings. The Company used $5,921,000 of the proceeds to pay down debt balances due to JANA, Vicis and AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation. Cash proceeds from all divestitures received at the closings, net of fees, less amounts used to pay down debt were $2,629,000. The transactions included holdback provisions for an additional $1,475,000 in cash, which is to be released assuming certain criteria are met. The Company plans to use the cash received from the release of the holdback amounts to further reduce debt.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company had $3.4 million in cash and line of credit availability.
On November 6, 2009, the Company entered into definitive agreements with certain institutional investors to sell an aggregate of 15,857,141 shares of common stock and 7,135,713 warrants to purchase common stock. The Company will raise $10,154,000 in net proceeds from this transaction, which is expected to be finalized on or before November 17, 2009. Consistent with the terms of the debt agreement dated September 10, 2009, the Company will use $2,400,000 of the net proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance. The remaining $7,754,000 will be used to fund on-going operations (See “Note 13 — Subsequent Event”).
The Company is now focused on improving the performance of its two remaining core business units: Pharmacy and Services. Subsequent to the various divestitures during fiscal first quarter 2010, management believes that its increased focus on the remaining businesses will enable it to realize operational improvements. Within the Pharmacy segment, the Company has significantly expanded revenue over the last 12 months and began to see improvements in the margins during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The success of the Pharmacy business depends heavily on the continued increase in revenue, continued improvement in margins and the ability to reduce SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue. Management believes that the Company’s relationships with certain large payers and home care partners will provide the necessary revenue growth to allow the Company to leverage its current SG&A structure, improve margins, and achieve profitability in this segment. The timing and size of the revenue growth will be the primary driver impacting the Pharmacy business’s financial performance over the next several quarters. However, it is expected that the Pharmacy segment will not become profitable and will continue to be a net user of cash throughout fiscal 2010.

Within the Services segment, the Company has seen modest increase in Home Care revenue over the last 12 months. Management continues to explore cost-effective ways to organically grow the Home Care revenue. At the same time, the Company has seen a significant reduction in medical staffing revenue consistent with overall staffing industry trends. The Company has reduced the SG&A in this segment over the last 12 months and will continue to look for additional cost-saving opportunities. Management expects these on-going initiatives to improve the Service segment results during the second half of fiscal 2010 and beyond. At current levels of revenue, it is unlikely that the profitability of the Services segment will be sufficient to offset the losses and cash usage in the Pharmacy segment.
Management believes that the additional cash raised with the November 12, 2009 equity financing will provide the Company with the capital necessary to support operating cash requirements.
Note 3 — Discontinued Operations
Industrial Staffing Operations
On May 29, 2009, the Company finalized the sale of substantially all of the assets of its industrial and non-medical staffing business for cash proceeds of $250,000, which were paid in five equal installments through September 2009. Additionally, the Company will receive 50% of the future earnings of the business until the total payments equal $1,600,000. Such payments, if any, will be recorded as additional gains when earned. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 29, 2009.
HHE Operations
On January 5, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its HHE business in San Fernando, California. Total proceeds were originally estimated to be $503,000, less fees of $24,000. This amount included $126,000 that was to be held back by the buyer to cover certain contingent obligations of the Company. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the Company and the buyer resolved certain claims and the holdback amount of $126,000 was forfeited by the Company. The Company retained all accounts receivables for services provided prior to January 2009.
On May 18, 2009, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Lovell Medical Supply, Inc., Beacon Respiratory Services of Georgia, Inc., and Trinity Healthcare of Winston-Salem, Inc. to Aerocare Holdings, Inc. for total proceeds of $4,750,000, less fees of $150,000. At the time of closing, $475,000 of the purchase price was held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. In September 2009, the buyer released $160,000 of this amount, which was recognized as an additional gain on the sale. The entities sold represented the Southeast region of the Company’s HHE business.
On May 19, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its Midwest region of the Company’s HHE business. Total proceeds were $4,000,000, less fees of $150,000. $1,000,000 of the purchase price is being held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 2009.
As of May 2009, the Company had sold all of its HHE operations.
Retail Pharmacy Software Business
On June 11, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with a leading pharmacy management company to sell substantially all of the assets of JASCORP, LLC (“JASCORP”) for proceeds of $2,200,000, less estimated fees of $100,000. $220,000 of the purchase price is being held back by the buyer until December 2011 in order to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. JASCORP operated the retail pharmacy software business that the Company acquired in September 2007. As part of the divestiture, the Company entered into a License and Services Agreement with the buyer which provides the Company the right to continue to use the software for internal purposes.

The assets and liabilities associated with these discontinued business operations have been classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The results of the above are reported in discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, and the prior period consolidated statement of operations have been recast to conform to this presentation. The segment results in Note 12 also reflect the reclassification of the discontinued operations. The discontinued operations do not reflect the costs of certain services provided to these operations by the Company. Such costs, which were not allocated by the Company to the various operations, included internal employee costs associated with administrative functions, including accounting, information technology, human resources, compliance and contracting as well as external costs for legal fees, insurance, audit fees, payroll processing, and various public-company expenses. The Company uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations, and, accordingly, debt and the related interest expense were also not allocated specifically to these operations. The consolidated statements of cash flows do not separately report the cash flows of the discontinued operations.

Comerica Bank
Arcadia Services, Inc. (“ASI”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and three of ASI’s wholly-owned subsidiaries have an outstanding line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank. Advances under the line of credit agreement cannot exceed the revolving credit commitment amount or the aggregate principal amount of indebtedness permitted under the advance formula amount at any one time. On July 13, 2009, ASI executed an amendment to this line of credit agreement, which reduced the total available advances from $19 million to $14 million. The advance formula base is 85% of the eligible accounts receivable, plus the lesser of 85% of eligible unbilled accounts or $3,000,000. The line of credit agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause and requires the Company to maintain a lockbox. However, the Company has the ability to control the funds in the deposit account and to determine the amount used to pay down the line of credit balance. As such, the line of credit is not automatically classified as a current obligation in the consolidated balance sheets. Arcadia Services, Inc. agreed to various financial covenant ratios (as described below), to have any person who acquires Arcadia Services, Inc.’s capital stock to pledge such stock to Comerica Bank, and to customary negative covenants. The amendment to the line of credit agreement also requires the Company to maintain a deposit account with a minimum balance of $500,000, and this amount is classified as restricted cash on the Company’s balance sheet. If an event of default occurs, Comerica Bank may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise its right to foreclose on the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. and on all of the assets of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries. On September 30, 2009, the interest rate on this line of credit agreement was the bank’s prime rate plus 2.75% (6.0%), and the availability under the line was $3,442,000.
RKDA, Inc. (“RKDA”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the holding company of Arcadia Services, Inc. and Arcadia Products, Inc., granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Arcadia Services, Inc. Arcadia Services, Inc. granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of its assets. The subsidiaries of Arcadia Services, Inc. granted the bank security interests in all of their assets. RDKA is restricted from paying dividends to the Company. RKDA executed a guaranty to Comerica Bank for all indebtedness of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Any such default and resulting foreclosure would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. As of September 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
The July 2009 amendment to the line of credit agreement includes the following financial covenants: tangible effective net worth of $2 million as of September 30, 2009 and gradually increasing on a quarterly basis to $2.8 million by September 2011; minimum quarterly net income of $400,000; and, minimum subordination of indebtedness to Arcadia Resources, Inc. of $15.5 million. As of September 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with the loan covenants.

AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation
In connection with the acquisition of PrairieStone in February 2007, PrairieStone entered into a line of credit agreement with AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (“ABDC”), which previously maintained an ownership interest in PrairieStone. The line of credit was secured by a security interest in all of the assets of PrairieStone and SSAC, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and is guaranteed by the Company.
On June 10, 2009, the Company entered into an amendment to the line of credit agreement, which converted the line of credit to a term loan. The amendment included terms whereby if the Company paid down the remaining balance outstanding on the line of credit, ABDC would defer the payment of certain inventory purchases up to $750,000 until April 1, 2010, and the deferred balance would accrue interest at 8.0%. Additionally, ABDC agreed to negotiate in good faith the extension of an existing Prime Vendor Agreement relating to the Pharmacy segment which expires in September 2010 and a new credit agreement. On June 11, 2009 and simultaneous with the divestiture of JASCORP, the Company paid ABDC a total of $2,125,000 in order to pay off the line of credit balance. During June 2009, the Company deferred $750,000 in inventory purchasing payments. To date, the Company and ABDC have not yet negotiated the new credit agreement relating to the $750,000 or the Prime Vendor Agreement. The $750,000 is included in current long-term obligation as of September 30, 2009 on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

On March 25, 2009, the Company entered into a Master Exchange Agreement with JANA (related entity), Vicis (related entity) and LSP. Pursuant to the agreement, Vicis purchased $2,000,000 of the principal balance of promissory note held by JANA. Additionally, JANA and LSP advanced the Company $2,000,000 and $1,000,000 of cash, respectively. JANA and Vicis then exchanged their previously outstanding promissory notes for new notes with terms as described above. The new promissory notes due to JANA, Vicis, and LSP include covenants relating to, among other items, limitations of additional indebtedness, issuance of new equity securities and the application of proceeds from future asset sales. Specifically, the notes provide that the first $2,000,000 in proceeds would be retained by the Company. Additional proceeds are then paid to JANA, Vicis and LSP as provided in the promissory notes. After these promissory note prepayments are made, proceeds up to $20,000,000 are split 50% to the Company and 50% to be paid pro-rata to these three lenders. Thereafter, proceeds are split 25% to the Company and 75% to the lenders. As of September 30, 2009, the Company owes these lenders $1,200,000 before additional proceeds are split between the Company and the lenders.

Note 8 — Stock-Based Compensation
On August 18, 2006, the Board of Directors unanimously approved the Arcadia Resources, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the stockholders on September 26, 2006. The 2006 Plan provides for grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted shares (collectively “Awards”). The 2006 Plan will terminate and no more Awards will be granted after August 2, 2016, unless terminated by the Board of Directors sooner. The termination of the 2006 Plan will not affect previously granted Awards. All non-employee directors, executive officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to receive Awards under the 2006 Plan. As of September 30, 2009, approximately 200,000 shares were available for grant under the 2006 Plan.
On January 27, 2009, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the Second Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the 2006 Plan, and the Amendment was approved by the stockholders on October 14, 2009. The Amendment increased the number of shares available to be issued under the Plan to 5% of the Company’s authorized shares of common stock or 15 million shares.
Stock Options
Prior to the adoption of the 2006 Plan, stock options were granted to certain members of management and the Board of Directors. The terms of these options varied depending on the nature and timing of the grant. The maximum contractual term for the options granted to date is seven years.
The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The Company estimated the volatility of its common stock by using historical stock price volatility. The Company based the risk-free interest rate that it uses in the option pricing model on U.S. Treasury constant maturity issues having remaining terms similar to the expected terms of the options. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore used an expected dividend yield of zero in the option pricing model. The expected life of employee stock options represents the calculation using the “simplified” method for “plain vanilla” options applied consistently to all “plain vanilla” options. Due to a lack of adequate historical experience to provide a reasonable estimate, the Company will continue to use the simplified method until it has the historical data necessary to provide a reasonable estimate of expected life. For the expected option life, the Company has “plain-vanilla” stock options, and therefore uses a simple average of the vesting period and the contractual term for options. All share-based payment awards are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period.
Following are the specific valuation assumptions used for each respective period:
                             
    Three-Month Period Ended   Six-Month Period Ended  
    September 30,   September 30,  
Weighted-average   2009     2008   2009     2008

In fiscal 2009, the Board determined that certain members of executive management would be granted a number of options which would vest over three years. On April 3, 2008, the Board authorized the issuance of one-third of these total option grants for executive management (such portion which vested quarterly over fiscal 2009) and determined that the remaining two-thirds were to be issued as soon as the Company has option shares available to do so. Following approval of the Amendment of the Plan as describe above, on January 27, 2009, the Board of Directors granted the remaining two-thirds of these options to the executives (an aggregate of 2,253,334 options), such options (i) having an exercise price of $0.72 per share (the closing share price on April 2, 2008), (ii) vesting in equal installments on March 31, 2010 and 2011, and (iii) expiring on January 26, 2016. At the annual meeting on October 14, 2009, the shareholders approved the Amendment to the Plan. Therefore, the 2,253,334 options were granted in third quarter of fiscal 2010 and are not included in the above table, which presents activity through September 30, 2009.

Note 9 — Contingencies
As a health care provider, the Company is subject to extensive federal and state government regulation, including numerous laws directed at preventing fraud and abuse and laws regulating reimbursement under various government programs. The marketing, billing, documenting and other practices of health care companies are all subject to government scrutiny. To ensure compliance with Medicare and other regulations, audits may be conducted, with requests for patient records and other documents to support claims submitted for payment of services rendered to customers, beneficiaries of the government programs. Violations of federal and state regulations can result in severe criminal, civil and administrative penalties and sanctions, including disqualification from Medicare and other reimbursement programs.
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the resolution of such actions will materially affect the Company’s business.
Note 10 — Income Taxes
The Company incurred state and local tax expense of $7,000 and $198,000 during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $100,000 and $394,000 during the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
A valuation allowance is required to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A review of all available positive and negative evidence needs to be considered, including a company’s performance, the market environment in which the company operates, the length of carryback and carryforward periods, and expectation of future profits. Forming a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not needed is difficult when there is negative evidence such as the cumulative losses in recent years. Therefore, cumulative losses weigh heavily in the overall assessment. The Company will provide a full valuation allowance on future tax benefits until it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to utilize the assets, or other significant positive evidence arises that suggests the Company’s ability to utilize such assets.

One of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company, who resigned effective November 4, 2009, has minority ownership interests in each of Lunds, Inc. and LFHI Rx, LLC and serves as the Chairman and CEO of Lunds, Inc. These two entities held an ownership interest in PrairieStone prior to its acquisition by the Company and held approximately 2% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on September 30, 2009. Immediately prior to Company’s acquisition of PrairieStone, PrairieStone closed on the sale of the assets of fifteen retail pharmacies located within grocery stores owned and operated by Lunds, Inc. and Byerly’s, Inc. to Lunds, Inc., which transaction included execution of a five-year Management Services Agreement and a five-year Licensed Services Agreement between Lunds, Inc. and PrairieStone. Under the terms of the Management Services Agreement, PrairieStone provided such services that were appropriate for the day-to-day management of the pharmacies. In conjunction with these two agreements, the Company recognized $25,000 and $62,000 in revenue during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $52,000 and $126,000 during the six-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

As of September 30, 2009, the remaining principal balance of $185,000 is included in the current portion of long-term obligations in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Override Agreement also terminated the Management Services Agreement and provided for the granting of 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Lunds.
The Company’s Chief Operating Officer has a beneficial ownership interest in an affiliated agency and thereby has an interest in the affiliate’s transactions with the Company, including the payments of commissions to the affiliate based on a specified percentage of gross margin.

Services Segment
The Services segment remains the largest source of revenue for the Company. Home care revenue as a percentage of Services revenue continues to increase, reaching 79.5% of revenue during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Home care revenues fell by $196,000, or 1.1%, from $17.451,000 to $17,255,000 over the same period a year ago. The modest decline was principally caused by reductions in reimbursement per billable hour in some state-sponsored home care programs and by a revenue decline in Michigan, one of the Company’s largest home care markets, due largely to economic conditions reducing the number of billable hours during the period.

The negative trends in the medical staffing and travel staffing markets continued in the fiscal second quarter 2010. Medical staffing and travel staffing declined by 37.3% and 44.4%, respectively, as compared with the prior year quarter. Demand for the Company’s per diem and travel medical staffing services declined as compared with the same period a year ago. Several factors have contributed to the lower level of overall demand. Market conditions for temporary medical staffing are currently not favorable, driven by lower patient censuses in facilities; constraints on facility staffing budgets; the return of part-time staff to full-time status and increases in overtime accepted by permanent staff of our potential customers, largely in response to overall economic conditions; and delays in the construction and opening of new facilities that often drives short-term staffing requirements. In addition to these market conditions, travel staffing revenues have been adversely affected by state budget constraints with a major correctional institution customer.
Gross margin in the Home Care and Medical Staffing business of 30.8% was essentially flat compared with the 31.0% gross margin in same quarter a year ago. While the overall mix of higher margin home care business increased as a percentage of total revenues, this gross margin benefit was offset by several factors. These factors included a reduction in margins on several state-sponsored home care programs, such as Arizona and California; a reduction in the percentage of business generated in some of the company’s higher margin offices and markets, including the state of Michigan; and an overall decline in the margins in the medical staffing business due to changes in staffing business mix.
Pharmacy Segment
The revenue in the Pharmacy segment increased by $2,195,000, or 180.8%, to $3,409,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to the same period last year. This growth was driven by the Company’s DailyMed program. During the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009, revenue generated from the DailyMed medication management program began to increase at a more rapid pace than in previous quarters, and the Company continues to pursue additional opportunities with government entities, managed care organizations, assisted living and group home facilities, existing home care customers and in direct-to-consumer initiatives. The Company expects these growth trends to continue during fiscal 2010 and beyond. The revenue growth over the last several quarters was primarily driven by the Company’s relationship with Indiana Medicaid. The Company continues to work with the Indiana Medicaid program and its managed care providers to identify and enroll those patients who will benefit most from participation in the DailyMed. Additionally, in June 2009, the Company announced the signing of an agreement with WellPoint. Under this agreement, the Company will initiate the DailyMed medication management program to WellPoint’s high-risk Medicaid members in five states where WellPoint companies provide Medicaid managed care benefits. The five states are: California, Virginia, New York, Kansas and South Carolina. The program was launched to WellPoint’s high risk members in Virginia in August, and the Company began recognizing revenue from these patients in September. The program is expected to be rolled out to WellPoint’s California patients during fiscal third quarter 2010 with revenue beginning to be recognized in fiscal fourth quarter 2010. The Company anticipates the majority of its Pharmacy revenue growth over the next several quarters to be attributable to the WellPoint arrangement.
The costs of revenue in the Pharmacy segment include the cost of medications and other products sold to clients and packaging costs for the DailyMed proprietary dispensing system. Gross margins for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 were 15.1% compared to 16.6% for the prior year quarter. Part of this decline reflects the different payer/patient mix in the Indianapolis, Indiana pharmacy compared to the payer/patient mix serviced when the pharmacy was located in Paducah, Kentucky. In addition, there is a different brand/generic product mix for the patients being serviced, which impacts margins quarter over quarter. Margins improved during the most recent quarter to 15.1% from 11.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Several factors contributed to this improvement, including changes in adjudication/billing procedures, utilization of group purchasing organization (GPO) contracts resulting in lower drug acquisition costs, and a reduction in inventory adjustments.

Effective September 26, 2009, a federal court required the two industry publishers of average wholesale prices (AWP) to reduce AWPs on some 1,400 brand drugs. This was the result of a settlement of litigation by third parties against these publishers challenging the establishment of AWPs on these products. AWPs are regularly used as a basis for establishing the reimbursement received by pharmacies for products dispensed. Some of the Company’s contracts for reimbursement, and some of the reimbursement policies of other payers, are based on discounts off of the published AWP. The industry publishers of AWPs have also decided to extend the reduction of AWPs to a much broader group of drugs than the list covered by the litigation settlement. Most commercial payers are adjusting their reimbursement formulas to compensate for the reduction in AWPs and the Company is in the process of amending agreements with these payers to reflect the new reimbursement formulas. In addition, some state-sponsored programs are adopting modifications to their reimbursement formulas to ensure a similar level of reimbursement to pharmacies after the change in AWPs as before the change. For payers adopting these adjustments, no material impact on the Company’s reimbursement is expected. However, some payers, including the Indiana Medicaid program, have not adjusted their reimbursement formulas to account for the lower AWPs and, consequently, the Company is receiving a reduced level of reimbursement on some products effective September 26, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of these reimbursement changes on its business but it is likely that the net impact will be to reduce revenue and decrease gross margins on some portion of the Pharmacy segment business. In addition, various proposals in the national health care reform efforts propose modifications to the manner in which various federally-funded and state-sponsored programs reimburse pharmacies for dispensing product. Certain of these proposals could have the effect of negatively impacting net revenue and gross margins in future periods.
Catalog Segment
Revenue from the Company’s catalog and internet-based home health products business decreased 26.7% to $498,000 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year. The decrease in revenue is due in part to the reduction in catalog mailing to a more targeted audience, and in part due to economic conditions as virtually all of this business is cash and/or credit business. The gross margin decreased to 42.3% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to 44.3% for the same period last year primarily due to change in the mix of the products being sold.

Services Segment
The Services segment selling, general and administrative expense decreased to $5,454,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $6,330,000 for the same period in the prior year. This $876,000, or 13.8%, decrease was primarily due to a $388,000 decrease in commissions paid to the affiliates and a $384,000 decrease in employee costs. Affiliate commissions are based on the gross margins of the individual affiliates, and the decrease reflects a decrease in revenues and gross margins generated from the affiliate owned locations. The decrease in employee costs was a direct result of the Company’s efforts to reduce headcount in certain areas.
Pharmacy Segment
The Pharmacy segment selling, general and administrative expense increased by $885,000, or 89.6%, to $1,873,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In general, the increase in Pharmacy expenses was due to the recent growth in revenue in this segment, as well as the continued investment in infrastructure in advance of the anticipated revenue growth during the next several quarters, primarily resulting from the WellPoint arrangement. Specifically, total employee costs increased by $463,000 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 as the Company hired additional pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and customer service representatives in order to process the increased volume. Additionally, the Company used more contract and temporary labor as well as consultants during this high growth period, and this contributed an additional $104,000 in expense. The remaining increase during the current year quarter was due to various other variable administrative expenses, such as bad debt and shipping, that increased with the growth in revenue.
The DailyMed program includes a significant level of patient care and value-added services designed to improve compliance, adherence and safety of a patient’s medication regimen. These pharmacy services include consolidation, synchronization and transfer of prescriptions and medication therapy management (MTM) services. The Company makes a significant investment in these services as they are a key part to achieving the patient benefits and health care cost reductions associated with DailyMed. The Company’s business model contemplates that payers will be willing to share some of these cost savings as they are realized. The Company has elected to provide these services to Indiana Medicaid customers without a cost-sharing arrangement as Indiana Medicaid has entered into a research agreement with the Purdue University School of Pharmacy to study DailyMed’s ability to reduce total health care costs. The Company currently has a cost-sharing arrangement with WellPoint, which has specific target savings and trigger dates. This revenue will not be realized until certain points in time in the future. As cost sharing agreements become a more significant part of the Company’s revenue, management anticipates overall profitability will improve.

Catalog Segment
The Catalog segment selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $94,000, or 31.5%, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to a $88,000 decrease in the costs to produce and mail catalogs.
Corporate
Corporate selling, general and administrative expense increased to $2,551,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $2,465,000 for the same period in the prior year. This $86,000, or 3.5%, increase was due to a $230,000 increase in legal fees and $117,000 increase in other professional fees. The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. The timing and cost of these issues are often erratic, and the increase in legal fees reflects a period of higher activity. The increase in professional fees was due to certain audit-related costs and fees for investment bank advisor services incurred during the current year quarter. These increases were partially offset by a $113,000 decrease in employee costs, which reflects reductions in headcount.
The Company divested of its home health equipment, industrial staffing and retail pharmacy software businesses during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Subsequent to these divestitures, the Company began to reduce Corporate expenses in order to reduce overhead for the remaining business lines. These expense reduction initiatives will continue over the next several quarters and will primarily focus on employee costs and professional fees.
Depreciation and Amortization

  $ 531     $ 613     $ (82 )     -13.4 %
 
                       
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased by approximately $65,000, or 21.2%, during the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year. The increase reflects the increase in depreciation associated with various software and Pharmacy equipment acquired during the last year.
Amortization of acquired intangible assets decreased by $147,000, or 48.0%, during the fiscal second quarter 2010 compared to fiscal 2009. The decrease reflects the fact that as of March 31, 2009, the Company recognized certain impairment charges relating to amortizable intangible assets associated with the Pharmacy and Catalog segments, which ultimately reduced future amortization expense.

Interest expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 decreased by $218,000, or 20.4%, to $850,000 as compared to the same period last year. The average interest bearing liabilities balance (balance of the beginning of the period plus the end of the period divided by two) for fiscal 2010 was $33.6 million compared to $36.9 million for fiscal 2009, which represents a reduction of 8.9%. The overall reduction of debt combined with the timing of the reductions resulted in the decrease in interest expense.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $7,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $198,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, a decrease of $191,000. The income tax expense is primarily the result of state income tax liabilities of the subsidiary operating companies. The majority of the prior period expense related to the estimated tax liability in Michigan associated with the industrial staffing business, which was divested of by the Company in May 2009.
Due to the Company’s losses in recent years, it has paid nominal federal income taxes. For federal income tax purposes, the Company had significant permanent and timing differences between book income and taxable income resulting in combined net deferred tax assets of $32 million to be utilized by the Company for which an offsetting valuation allowance has been established for the entire amount. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling $59.2 million that expires at various dates through 2029. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of certain of these net operating loss carryforwards upon a change of control of the Company. It has been determined that a change in control took place at the time of the reverse merger in 2004, and as such, the utilization of $700,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards will be subject to severe limitations in future periods.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
Industrial Staffing Operations
On May 29, 2009, the Company finalized the sale of substantially all of the assets of its industrial and non-medical staffing business for cash proceeds of $250,000, which were paid in five equal installments through September 2009. Additionally, the Company will receive 50% of the future earnings of the business until the total payments equal $1.6 million. Such payments, if any, will be recorded as additional gains when earned. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 29, 2009.
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the Industrial Staffing discontinued operations was $8,000, and the Company recognized an additional $3,000 gain on the disposal of discontinued operations.
HHE Operations
On January 5, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its HHE business in San Fernando, California. Total proceeds were originally estimated to be $503,000, less fees of $24,000. This amount included $126,000 that was to be held back by the buyer to cover certain contingent obligations of the Company. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the Company and the buyer resolved certain claims and the holdback amount of $126,000 was forfeited by the Company. The Company retained all accounts receivables for services provided prior to January 2009.
On May 18, 2009, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Lovell Medical Supply, Inc., Beacon Respiratory Services of Georgia, Inc., and Trinity Healthcare of Winston-Salem, Inc. to Aerocare Holdings, Inc. for total proceeds of $4,750,000, less fees of $150,000. At the time of closing, $475,000 of the purchase price was held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. In September 2009, the buyer released $160,000 of this amount, which was recognized as an additional gain on the sale. The entities sold represented the Southeast region of the Company’s HHE business.
On May 19, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its Midwest region of the Company’s HHE business. Total proceeds were $4,000,000, less fees of $150,000. $1,000,000 of the purchase price is being held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 2009.

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the HHE discontinued operations was $189,000 and the Company recognized an additional $160,000 gain on the disposal of discontinued operations. The gain represents the release of the first holdback payment received in September 2009.
Pharmacy Operations
On June 11, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with a leading pharmacy management company to sell substantially all of the assets of JASCORP, LLC (“JASCORP”) for proceeds of $2,200,000, less estimated fees of $100,000. $220,000 of the purchase price is being held back by the buyer until December 2011 in order to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. JASCORP operated the retail pharmacy software business that the Company acquired in September 2007. As part of the divestiture, the Company entered into a License and Services Agreement with the buyer that provides the Company the right to continue to use the software for internal purposes.
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the Pharmacy discontinued operations was $58,000.

Services Segment
The Services segment remains the largest source of revenue for the Company. Home care revenue as a percentage of Services revenue continues to increase, reaching 78.7% of revenue during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009. Home care revenues increased by $594,000, or 1.7%, from $34,349,000 to $34,943,000 over the same period a year ago.
The increases in home care revenue were more than offset by the declines in revenue in the medical staffing and travel staffing markets, which declined by 36.1% and 45.0%, respectively, as compared with the prior year period. Demand for the Company’s per diem and travel medical staffing services declined as compared with the same period a year ago. Several factors have contributed to the lower level of overall demand. Market conditions for temporary medical staffing are currently not favorable, driven by lower patient censuses in facilities; constraints on facility staffing budgets; the return of part-time staff to full-time status and increases in overtime accepted by permanent staff of our potential customers, largely in response to overall economic conditions; and delays in the construction and opening of new facilities that often drives short-term staffing requirements. In addition to these market conditions, travel staffing revenues have been adversely affected by state budget constraints with a major correctional institution customer.

Gross margins in the Services segment remained approximately flat at 30.6% during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to 30.7% for the prior year period. The cost of revenues in this segment consists primarily of employee costs, including wages, taxes, fringe benefits and workers’ compensation expense.
Pharmacy Segment
The revenue in the Pharmacy segment increased by $4,307,000, or 186%, to $6,626,000 during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year. This growth was driven by the Company’s DailyMed program. During the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009, revenue generated from the DailyMed medication management program began to increase at a more rapid pace than in previous quarters, and the Company continues to pursue additional opportunities with government entities, managed care organizations, assisted living and group home facilities, existing home care customers and in direct-to-consumer initiatives. The Company expects these growth trends to continue during fiscal 2010 and beyond. The revenue growth over the last several quarters was primarily driven by the Company’s relationship with Indiana Medicaid. The Company continues to work with the Indiana Medicaid program and its managed care providers to identify and enroll those patients who will benefit most from participation in the DailyMed. Additionally, in June 2009, the Company announced the signing of an agreement with WellPoint. Under this agreement, the Company will initiate the DailyMed medication management program to WellPoint’s high-risk Medicaid members in five states where WellPoint companies provide Medicaid managed care benefits. The five states are: California, Virginia, New York, Kansas and South Carolina. The program was launched to WellPoint’s high risk members in Virginia in August, and the Company began recognizing revenue from these patients in September. The program is expected to be rolled out to WellPoint’s California patients during fiscal third quarter 2010 with revenue beginning to be recognized in fiscal fourth quarter 2010.
The costs of revenue in the Pharmacy segment include the cost of medications and other products sold to clients and packaging costs for the DailyMed proprietary dispensing system. Gross margins for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 were 13.1% compared to 17.0% for the prior year period. Part of this decline reflects the different payer/patient mix in the Indianapolis, Indiana pharmacy compared to the payer/patient mix serviced when the pharmacy was located in Paducah, Kentucky. In addition, there is a different brand/generic product mix for the patients being serviced, which impacts margins quarter over quarter. Margins improved during the most recent quarter to 15.1% from 11.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Several factors contributed to this improvement, including changes in adjudication/billing procedures, utilization of group purchasing organization (GPO) contracts resulting in lower drug acquisition costs, and a reduction in inventory adjustments.

Effective September 26, 2009, a federal court required the two industry publishers of average wholesale prices (AWP) to reduce AWPs on some 1,400 brand drugs. This was the result of a settlement of litigation by third parties against these publishers challenging the establishment of AWPs on these products. AWPs are regularly used as a basis for establishing the reimbursement received by pharmacies for products dispensed. Some of the Company’s contracts for reimbursement, and some of the reimbursement policies of other payers, are based on discounts off of the published AWP. The industry publishers of AWPs have also decided to extend the reduction of AWPs to a much broader group of drugs than the list covered by the litigation settlement. Most commercial payers are adjusting their reimbursement formulas to compensate for the reduction in AWPs and the Company is in the process of amending agreements with these payers to reflect the new reimbursement formulas. In addition, some state-sponsored programs are adopting modifications to their reimbursement formulas to ensure a similar level of reimbursement to pharmacies after the change in AWPs as before the change. For payers adopting these adjustments, no material impact on the Company’s reimbursement is expected. However, some payers, including the Indiana Medicaid program, have not adjusted their reimbursement formulas to account for the lower AWPs and, consequently, the Company is receiving a reduced level of reimbursement on some products effective September 26, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of these reimbursement changes on its business but it is likely that the net impact will be to reduce revenue and decrease gross margins on some portion of the Pharmacy segment business. In addition, various proposals in the national health care reform efforts propose modifications to the manner in which various federally-funded and state-sponsored programs reimburse pharmacies for dispensing product. Certain of these proposals could have the effect of negatively impacting net revenue and gross margins in future periods.
Catalog Segment
Revenue from the Company’s catalog and internet-based home health products business decreased 25.1% to $1,010,000 during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year. The decrease in revenue is due in part to the reduction in catalog mailing to a more targeted audience, and in part due to economic conditions as virtually all of this business is cash and/or credit business.
The gross margin decreased to 38.5% for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to 45.5% for the same period last year primarily due to change in the mix of the products being sold.

Services Segment
The Services segment selling, general and administrative expense decreased to $10,968,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $12,489,000 for the same period in the prior year. This $1,521,000, or 12.2%, decrease was primarily due to a $757,000 decrease in commissions paid to the affiliates and a $654,000 decrease in employee costs. Affiliate commissions are based on the gross margins of the individual affiliates, and the decrease reflects a decrease in revenues and gross margins generated from the affiliate owned locations. The decrease in employee costs was a direct result of the Company’s efforts to reduce headcount in certain areas.
Pharmacy Segment
The Pharmacy segment selling, general and administrative expense increased by $1,554,000, or 81.8%, to $3,454,000 during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009. In general, the increase in Pharmacy expenses was due to the recent growth in revenue in this segment, as well as the continued investment in infrastructure in advance of the anticipated revenue growth during the next several quarters, primarily resulting from the WellPoint arrangement. Specifically, total employee costs increased by $790,000 during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 as the Company hired additional pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and customer service representatives in order to process the increased volume. Additionally, the Company used more contract and temporary labor as well as consultants during the current year quarter, and this contributed an additional $229,000 in expense. Shipping costs and bad debt expense also increased during the quarter by $148,000 and $109,000, respectively, which was consistent with the revenue growth. The remaining increase during the current year quarter was due to various other administrative expenses that increased with the growth in revenue and headcount that has occurred over the last three quarters.
The DailyMed program includes a significant level of patient care and value-added services designed to improve compliance, adherence and safety of a patient’s medication regimen. These pharmacy services include consolidation, synchronization and transfer of prescriptions and medication therapy management (MTM) services. The Company makes a significant investment in these services as they are a key part to achieving the patient benefits and health care cost reductions associated with DailyMed. The Company’s business model contemplates that payers will be willing to share some of these cost savings as they are realized. The Company has elected to provide these services to Indiana Medicaid customers without a cost-sharing arrangement as Indiana Medicaid has entered into a research agreement with the Purdue University School of Pharmacy to study DailyMed’s ability to reduce total health care costs. The Company currently has a cost-sharing arrangement with WellPoint, which has specific target savings and trigger dates. This revenue will not be realized until certain points in time in the future. As cost sharing agreements become a more significant part of the Company’s revenue, management anticipates overall profitability will improve.

Catalog Segment
The Catalog segment selling, general and administrative expense decreased by $168,000, or 28.6%, during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009. These decreases were primarily due to a $143,000 decrease in the costs to produce and mail catalogs.
Corporate
Corporate selling, general and administrative expense decreased to $4,907,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $5,287,000 for the same period in the prior year. This $380,000, or 7.2%, decrease was primarily due to decreases in most expense categories subsequent to the divestitures of the home health equipment, industrial staffing and retail pharmacy software businesses during the fiscal first quarter 2010. The largest such decrease was employee costs, which decreased by $389,000. These decreases were partially offset by a $303,000 increase in legal fees.
Over the next several quarters, the Company will continue to reduce Corporate expenses in an effort to reduce Corporate overhead for the remaining business lines and will primarily focus on employee costs and professional fees.
Depreciation and Amortization
The following summarizes depreciation and amortization expense for the six-month periods ended September 30, (in thousands):
                                 
                    $ Increase/     % Increase/

  $ 942     $ 1,072     $ (130 )     -12.1 %
 
                       
Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment increased by $160,000, or 34.4%, during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to the same period last year. The increase reflects the increase in depreciation associated with various software and Pharmacy equipment acquired during the last year.
Amortization of acquired intangible assets decreased by $290,000, or 47.8%, during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to prior year period. The decrease reflects the fact that as of March 31, 2009, the Company recognized certain impairment charges relating to amortizable intangible assets associated with the Pharmacy and Catalog segments, which ultimately reduced future amortization expense.
Other Expenses
The following summarizes net interest expense for the six-month periods ended September 30, (in thousands):

  $ 1,684     $ 2,010     $ (326 )     -16.2 %
 
                       
Interest expense for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 decreased by $347,000, or 17.0%, to $1,695,000 as compared to the same period last year. The average interest bearing liabilities balance (balance of the beginning of the period plus the end of the period divided by two) for fiscal 2010 was $36.7 million compared to $38.4 million for fiscal 2009, which represents a reduction of 4.5%. The overall reduction of debt combined with the timing of the reductions resulted in the decrease in interest expense.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
On June 5, 2008, the Company issued AmerisourceBergen 490,000 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. The warrants were issued in conjunction with obtaining a waiver for a financial covenant violation relating to the AmerisourcBergen line of credit, which was paid in full in June 2009. The fair value of the warrants was determined to be $248,000 and was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt during the six-month period ended September 30, 2008. No similar expense was recognized during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $100,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $394,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2008, a decrease of $294,000. The income tax expense is primarily the result of state income tax liabilities of the subsidiary operating companies. The majority of the prior period expense related to the estimated tax liability in Michigan associated with the industrial staffing business, which was divested of by the Company in May 2009. The Company uses a centralized approach for income tax purposes, and, accordingly, income tax expenses were not specifically allocated to discontinued operations.
Due to the Company’s losses in recent years, it has paid nominal federal income taxes. For federal income tax purposes, the Company had significant permanent and timing differences between book income and taxable income resulting in combined net deferred tax assets of $32 million to be utilized by the Company for which an offsetting valuation allowance has been established for the entire amount. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling $59.2 million that expires at various dates through 2029. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 rules limit the utilization of certain of these net operating loss carryforwards upon a change of control of the Company. It has been determined that a change in control took place at the time of the reverse merger in 2004, and as such, the utilization of $700,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards will be subject to severe limitations in future periods.
Industrial Staffing Operations
On May 29, 2009, the Company finalized the sale of substantially all of the assets of its industrial and non-medical staffing business for cash proceeds of $250,000, which were paid in five equal installments through September 2009. Additionally, the Company will receive 50% of the future earnings of the business until the total payments equal $1.6 million. Such payments, if any, will be recorded as additional gains when earned. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 29, 2009.
Through the six-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the Industrial Staffing discontinued operations was $44,000, and the Company recognized a $129,000 gain on the disposal of discontinued operations.
HHE Operations
On January 5, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its HHE business in San Fernando, California. Total proceeds were originally estimated to be $503,000, less fees of $24,000. This amount included $126,000 that was to be held back by the buyer to cover certain contingent obligations of the Company. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, the Company and the buyer resolved certain claims and the holdback amount of $126,000 was forfeited by the Company. The Company retained all accounts receivables for services provided prior to January 2009.

On May 18, 2009, the Company completed the sale of its ownership interest in Lovell Medical Supply, Inc., Beacon Respiratory Services of Georgia, Inc., and Trinity Healthcare of Winston-Salem, Inc. to Aerocare Holdings, Inc. for total proceeds of $4,750,000, less fees of $150,000. At the time of closing, $475,000 of the purchase price was held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. In September 2009, the buyer released $160,000 of this amount, which was recognized as an additional gain on the sale. The entities sold represented the Southeast region of the Company’s HHE business.
On May 19, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Braden Partners, L.P. to sell the assets of its Midwest region of the Company’s HHE business. Total proceeds were $4,000,000, less fees of $150,000. $1,000,000 of the purchase price is being held by the buyer to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. The Company retained all accounts receivable for services provided prior to May 2009.
As of May 2009, the Company had sold all of its HHE operations.
Through the six-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the HHE discontinued operations was $1,230,000 and the Company recognized a $280,000 gain on the disposal of discontinued operations.
Pharmacy Operations
On June 11, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with a leading pharmacy management company to sell substantially all of the assets of JASCORP, LLC (“JASCORP”) for proceeds of $2,200,000, less estimated fees of $100,000. $220,000 of the purchase price is being held back by the buyer until December 2011 in order to cover the Company’s contingent obligations. JASCORP operated the retail pharmacy software business that the Company acquired in September 2007. As part of the divestiture, the Company entered into a License and Services Agreement with the buyer that provides the Company the right to continue to use the software for internal purposes.
Through the six-month period ended September 30, 2009, the net loss for the Pharmacy discontinued operations was $174,000, and the Company recognized a $204,000 loss on the disposal of discontinued operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since fiscal 2008, the Company has been focused on the implementation of a board approved strategic plan designed to focus on expanding certain core businesses; restructuring the Company’s long-term debt; closing or selling non-strategic businesses and assets; improving operating margins; reducing selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses; and establishing a more disciplined approach to cash management. To date, management has made progress in these areas as discussed below.
On March 25, 2009, the Company restructured $24 million of debt with its two largest equity holders and received an additional $3 million in debt financing as part of the transaction. The debt maturity was extended through April 1, 2012, and the Company will continue to have the option to add the accrued interest to the principal balance on a quarterly basis. The debt agreements include a formula for splitting the cash proceeds upon the sale of assets. (See Note 6 — “Long-Term Obligations” for details).
On July 13, 2009, the Company executed an amendment to its line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank. The amendment reduced the total availability from $19 million to $14 million; extended the maturity from October 2009 to August 2011; and increased the interest rate from the prime rate plus 1% to the prime rate plus 2.75%.
In May and June 2009, the Company sold its HHE, industrial staffing and pharmacy software businesses and received an aggregate of $9,157,000 in cash proceeds at the closings. The Company used $5,921,000 of the proceeds to pay down debt balances due to JANA, Vicis and AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation. Cash proceeds from all divestitures received at the closings, net of fees, less amounts used to pay down debt were $2,629,000. The transactions included holdback provisions for an additional $1,475,000 in cash, which is to be released assuming certain criteria. The Company plans to use the cash received from the release of the holdback amounts to further reduce debt.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company had $3.4 million in cash and line of credit availability.

On November 6, 2009, the Company entered into definitive agreements with certain institutional investors to sell an aggregate of 15,857,141 shares of common stock and 7,135,713 warrants to purchase common stock. The Company will raise $10,154,000 in net proceeds from this transaction, which is expected to be finalized on or before November 17, 2009. Consistent with the terms of the debt agreement dated September 10, 2009, the Company will use $2,400,000 of the net proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance. The remaining $7,754,000 will be used to fund on-going operations (See “Note 13 — Subsequent Event”).
The Company is now focused on improving the performance of its two remaining core business units: Pharmacy and Services. Subsequent to the various divestitures during fiscal first quarter 2010, management believes that its increased focus on the remaining businesses will enable it to realize operational improvements. Within the Pharmacy segment, the Company has significantly expanded revenue over the last 12 months and began to see improvements in the margins during the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The success of the Pharmacy business depends heavily on the continued increase in revenue, continued improvement in margins and the ability to reduce SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue. Management believes that the Company’s relationships with certain large payers and home care partners will provide the necessary revenue growth to allow the Company to leverage its current SG&A structure, improve margins, and achieve profitability in this segment. The timing and size of the revenue growth will be the primary driver impacting the Pharmacy business’s financial performance over the next several quarters. However, it is expected that the Pharmacy segment will not become profitable and will continue to be a net user of cash throughout fiscal 2010.
Within the Services segment, the Company has seen modest increase in Home Care revenue over the last 12 months. Management continues to explore cost-effective ways to organically grow the Home Care revenue. At the same time, the Company has seen a significant reduction in medical staffing revenue consistent with overall staffing industry trends. The Company has reduced the SG&A in this segment over the last 12 months and will continue to look for additional cost-saving opportunities. Management expects these on-going initiatives to improve the Service segment results during the second half of fiscal 2010 and beyond. At current levels of revenue, it is unlikely that the profitability of the Services segment will be sufficient to offset the losses and cash usage in the Pharmacy segment.
Management believes that the additional cash raised with the November 13, 2009 equity financing will provide the Company with the capital necessary to support operating cash requirements.

At September 30, 2009, the Company had $3,442,000 in cash and line of credit availability compared to $4,467,000 at March 31, 2009, a decrease of $1,025,000. The line of credit balance fluctuates based on working capital needs. The line of credit availability is based on the eligible accounts receivable within the Services segment. Subsequent to the divestiture of the industrial staffing business in May 2009 and the amendment to the Comerica Bank line of credit agreement in July 2009, the Services receivables and borrowing base decreased. Near the end of the quarter, the Company typically uses its available cash to reduce the outstanding line of credit balance.
Net cash used in operating activities was $3,247,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 compared to $27,000 for the same period of the prior year. The loss from discontinued operations during the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 accounted for $1,448,000 of the total $8,719,000 net loss during the period. Discontinued operations contributed $1,195,000 in income during the prior year period.
Cash provided by investing activities of $8,528,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 included $9,320,000 of cash received for the divestitures of the HHE, industrial staffing and retail pharmacy software businesses. This amount was offset by $196,000 in cash payments relating to prior year business acquisitions as well as $96,000 in capital expenditures. Additionally, in conjunction with the Comerica Bank line of credit extension in July 2009, the Company invested $500,000 of restricted cash in order to collateralize the liability. During the six-month period ended September 30, 2008, the Company used $429,000 of cash for business acquisitions and an additional $462,000 for capital expenditures. These amounts were offset by $356,000 of cash proceeds from business disposals.

Cash used in financing activities was $6,803,000 for the six-month period end September 30, 2009. In September 2009, the Company received $2,141,0000 in additional debt financing, net of fees. During the first two quarters of fiscal 2010, the Company made $4,334,000 in debt and capital lease payments and reduced its outstanding balance on its lines of credit by $4,610,000. The reduction in the line of credit balance primarily reflects the reduction in the borrowing base subsequent to the divestiture of the industrial staffing business as the receivables of this business were included in the borrowing base calculation. Cash used in financing activities of $3,514,000 for the six-month period ended September 30, 2008 represents reductions in outstanding debt, including lines of credit.
On July 13, 2009, the Company executed an amendment to its line of credit agreement with Comerica Bank. The amendment reduced the total availability from $19,000,000 to $14,000,000; extended the maturity from October 2009 to August 2011; and increased the interest rate from the prime rate plus 1% to the prime rate plus 2.75%. The amendment also required the Company to establish a restricted cash at account at Comerica Bank in the amount of $500,000.
On September 10, 2009, the Company entered into three unsecured notes payable for an aggregate of $2,400,000. The notes include an original issue discount of $100,000 and mature on April 1, 2010. The notes include a mandatory repayment provision whereby if the Company raises in excess of $5,000,000 in a debt or equity transaction, the notes would be paid in full.
On November 6, 2009, the Company entered into definitive agreements with certain institutional investors to sell an aggregate of 15,857,141 shares of common stock and 7,135,713 warrants to purchase common stock. The Company will raise $10,154,000 in net proceeds from this transaction, which is expected to be finalized on or before November 17, 2009. Consistent with the terms of the debt agreement dated September 10, 2009, the Company will use $2,400,000 of the net proceeds to pay off the outstanding balance. The remaining $7,754,000 will be used to fund on-going operations (See “Note 13 — Subsequent Event”).
As of September 30, 2009, the Company had total debt obligations of $34,513,000, of which $16,997,000 was payable to JANA and $6,193,000 was payable to Vicis. Both JANA and Vicis own greater than 15% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Additionally, the Company had an outstanding balances of $6,715,000 due to Comerica Bank under its working capital line of credit agreement and an additional $4,608,000 due to various other lenders.
As of September 30, 2009, total debt obligations due within the next 12 months totaled $3,501,000, of which $3,245,000 matures on or before April 1, 2010. The Company’s ability to pay these amounts will depend on its ability to raise additional capital either through additional debt or equity financing or the sale of assets. Alternatively, management will need to renegotiate terms with these lenders.
Net accounts receivable were $14,454,000 and $15,679,000 at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The Services segment accounted for 94% and 95% of total account receivables at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively.
The Company has a limited number of customers with individually large amounts due at any given balance sheet date. The Company’s payer mix for the six-month period ended September 30, 2009 was as follows:
         
Medicare
    0 %
Medicaid/other government
    28 %
Commercial insurance
    15 %
Institution/facilities
    35 %
Private pay
    22 %

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The majority of our cash balances are held primarily in highly liquid commercial bank accounts. The Company utilizes lines of credit to fund operational cash needs. The risk associated with fluctuating interest rates is primarily limited to our borrowings. We do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant effect on our results of operations or cash flows. All our revenues since inception have been in the U.S. and in U.S. Dollars; therefore, we have not yet adopted a strategy for the future currency rate exposure as it is not anticipated that foreign revenues are likely to occur in the near future.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management on a timely basis to allow decisions regarding required disclosure.
At March 31, 2009, we reported that we had one material weakness relating to the interpretation and application of certain technical accounting standards. This material weakness specifically related to the accounting for certain non-routine transactions that occurred near the end of the fiscal year and subsequent to year end, including restructuring of our debt, accounting for discontinued operations, and changes to projections associated with our goodwill impairment valuation.
Since the prior fiscal year end, we have implemented a remediation plan to address the specific material weakness described above. The Company has taken the following actions to improve internal control over financial reporting: (1) we required all significant or non-routine transactions to be thoroughly researched, analyzed, approved at the appropriate level, and documented by qualified accounting personnel; (2) in addition, all major or non-routine transactions will require the additional review and approval of the Chief Financial Officer; (3) we have also implemented an additional review by subject matter experts for complex accounting estimates and accounting treatment, where appropriate. While all non-routine transactions are unique in nature, we believe that this plan will improve the effectiveness of our internal controls. In addition to the specific actions described above relating to non-routine transaction, management has improved the speed of the financial reporting closing process in order to provide management more time to analyze non-routine transactions before internal and external deadlines.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Other than as described above, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are a defendant from time to time in lawsuits incidental to our business in the ordinary course of business. We are not currently subject to, and none of our subsidiaries are subject to, any material legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flow that may continue into the foreseeable future.
We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flow. While we have achieved positive cash flow from operations in some recent quarters, which was partially due to deferring certain interest amounts, net cash flow has been negative, we continue to follow a very disciplined approach to cash management. If we fail to execute our strategy to achieve and maintain profitability in the future, investors could lose confidence in the value of our common stock, which could cause our stock price to decline, adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital, and adversely affect our ability to meet the financial covenants contained in our credit agreement. Further, if we continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow, we may have to implement further significant cost cutting measures, which could include a substantial reduction in work force, location closures, and/or the sale or disposition of certain subsidiaries. We cannot assure that any of the cost cutting measures we implement will be effective or result in profitability or positive cash flow. To achieve profitability, we will also need to, among other things, increase our revenue base, reduce our cost structure and realize economies of scale. If we are unable to achieve and maintain profitability, our stock price could be materially adversely affected.
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and operations and prevent us from fulfilling our debt service obligations and our ability to operate our business.
Our indebtedness could have important consequences, including, but not limited to:
   
We may be unable to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes.
   
We may be unable to plan for, or react to, changes in our business and general market conditions. We may be more vulnerable in a volatile market and at a competitive disadvantage to less leveraged competitors.
   
Our operating flexibility is more limited due to financial and other restrictive covenants, including restrictions on incurring additional debt, creating liens on our properties, making acquisitions and paying dividends.
   
We are subject to the risks that interest rates and our interest expense will increase.
   
Our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business may be limited because we must dedicate a substantial portion of these funds to make principal and interest payments on our indebtedness.
   
Our ability to make investments or take other actions or borrow additional funds may be limited based on the financial and other restrictive covenants in our indebtedness.
   
The amount we are permitted to draw on our revolving credit facilities may be limited and we may be unable to fund our early-stage pharmacy product and patient care services and home care staffing business strategies.
   
We may be forced to implement cost reductions, which could impact our product and service offerings.
   
We may be unable to successfully implement our growth strategy to establish home care staffing business and spread our cost structure over a rapidly growing and larger revenue base and ultimately become profitable.
Due to our debt level, our history of operating losses and negative cash flows, and the current conditions in the credit markets, we may not be able to increase the amount we can draw on our revolving credit facility with Comerica Bank, or to obtain credit from other sources, to fund our future needs for working capital, funding early-stage strategies and ongoing business operations, or acquisitions.
Due to our debt level and the current conditions in the credit market, there is the risk that Comerica Bank or other sources of credit may decline to increase the amount we are permitted to draw on the revolving credit facilities or to lend additional funds for working capital, funding our early-stage pharmacy product and patient care services and home care staffing business strategies, making acquisitions and for other purposes. This development could result in various consequences to the Company, ranging from implementation of cost reductions, which could impact our product and service offerings, to the need to revise management’s business plan for fiscal 2010 that depends on improvements in profitability and a disciplined approach to cash management, to the modification or abandonment of these strategies.

We may not be able to meet the financial covenants contained in our credit facilities, and we may not be able to obtain waivers for any violations of those covenants should they occur.
Under certain of our existing credit facilities, we are required to adhere to certain financial covenants. We were not in compliance with certain financial covenants under our lines of credit as of March 31, 2008, but we received waivers of those non-compliances from our lenders. If there are future covenant violations, our lenders could declare a default under the applicable credit facility and, among other actions, refuse to make additional advances, increase our borrowing costs, further restrict our operations, take possession or control of any asset (including our cash) and demand the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the credit facility. Any of these actions could have a material adverse affect on our financial condition and liquidity. Based on our history of operating losses, we cannot guarantee that we would be able to refinance or obtain alternative financing.
In addition to the financial covenants, our existing credit facility with Comerica Bank includes a subjective acceleration clause and requires the Company to maintain a lockbox. Currently, the Company has the ability to control the funds in the deposit account and determine the amount issued to pay down the line of credit balance. The bank reserves the right under the security agreement to request that the indebtedness be on a remittance basis in the future, whether or not an event of default has occurred. If the bank exercises this right, then the Company would be forced to use its cash to pay down this indebtedness rather than for other needs, including day-to-day operations, expansion initiatives or the pay down of debt which accrues interest at a higher rate.
The terms of our credit agreements with various lenders subject us to the risk of foreclosure on certain property.
Our wholly-owned subsidiary RKDA, Inc. granted Comerica Bank a first priority security interest in all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary Arcadia Services, Inc. Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries granted Comerica Bank security interests in all of their assets. Consistent with the terms of the financing agreements with JANA, Vicis and LSP, PrairieStone Pharmacy, LLC will work to provide these lenders a subordinated security interest in its assets. If an event of default occurs under the applicable credit agreements, each lender may, at its option, accelerate the maturity of the debt and exercise its respective right to foreclose on the issued and outstanding capital stock and/or on all of the assets of Arcadia Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries, and/or PrairieStone Pharmacy, LLC and its subsidiaries. Any such default and resulting foreclosure would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and our ability to continue operations.
In order to fund operations, repay our debt obligations, or pursue our growth strategies, we may seek additional equity financing, which could result in dilution to our security holders.
On November 6, 2009, the Company entered into definitive agreements with certain institutional investors to sell an aggregate of 15,857,141 shares of common stock and 7,135,713 warrants to purchase common stock. The Company expects to raise $10.2 million in net proceeds from this transaction. We may continue to raise additional financing through the equity markets to repay debt obligations and to fund operations. Further, because of the capital requirements needed to pursue our early-stage pharmacy growth strategies, we may access the public or private equity markets whenever conditions appear to us to be favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time. We also plan to continue to expand product and service offerings. To the extent we access the equity markets, the price at which we sell shares may be lower than the current market prices for our common stock. If we obtain financing through the sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities, this could result in dilution to our security holders by increasing the number of shares of outstanding stock. We cannot predict the effect this dilution may have on the price of our common stock.
To the extent we are unable to generate sufficient cash from operations or raise adequate funds from the equity or debt markets, we would need to sell assets or modify or abandon our growth strategy.
We expect to finalize an equity transaction on or before November 17, 2009 and raise net proceeds of $10.2 million. $2.4 million of the proceeds will be used to pay off the debt financing received in September 2009. The net proceeds from this financing combined with our cash on hand and line of credit availability($3.4 million at September 30, 2009), may not be adequate to satisfy our cash needs over the long-term. To the extent that we are unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, or to raise additional funds from the equity or debt markets, we may be required to sell assets or modify or abandon our growth strategy. Asset sales and modification or abandonment of our growth strategy could negatively impact our profitability and financial position, which in turn could negatively impact the price of our common stock.

Due to our operating losses during recent fiscal years, our stock could be at risk of being delisted by the NYSE Amex Equities Exchange.
Our stock currently trades on the NYSE Amex Equities Exchange (“Amex”). The Amex, as a matter of policy, will consider the suspension of trading in, or removal from listing of any stock when, in the opinion of the Amex (i) the financial condition and/or operating results of an issuer of stock listed on the Amex appear to be unsatisfactory, (ii) it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the stock has become so reduced as to make further dealings on the Amex inadvisable, (iii) the issuer has sold or otherwise disposed of its principal operating assets, or (iv) the issuer has sustained losses which are so substantial in relation to its overall operations or its existing financial condition has become so impaired that it appears questionable, in the opinion of the Amex, whether the issuer will be able to continue operations and/or meet its obligations as they mature. We have sustained net losses and our stock has been trading at relatively low prices. Delisting of our common stock would adversely affect the price and liquidity of our common stock.
Changes in federal and state laws that govern our financial relationships with physicians and other health care providers may impact potential or current referral sources.
We offer certain healthcare-related products and services that are subject to federal and state laws restricting our relationship with physicians and other healthcare providers. Generally referred to as “anti-kickback laws,” these laws prohibit certain direct and indirect payments or other financial arrangements that are designed to encourage the referral of patients to a particular medical services provider. In addition, certain financial relationships, including ownership interests and compensation arrangements, between physicians and providers of designated health services, such as our Company, to whom those physicians refer patients, are prohibited by the federal physician self-referral prohibition, known as the “Stark Law,” and similar state laws. Violations of these laws could lead to fines or sanctions that could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, changes in healthcare law or new interpretations of existing laws may have a material impact on our business and results of operations.
We are required to comply with laws governing the transmission of privacy of health information.
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, requires us to comply with standards for the exchange of health information within our Company and with third parties, such as payors, business associates and consumers. These include standards for common health care transactions, such as claims information, plan eligibility, payment information, the use of electronic signatures, unique identifiers for providers, employers, health plans and individuals and security, privacy and enforcement. New standards and regulations may be adopted governing the use, disclosure and transmission of health information with which we may be required to comply. We could be subject to criminal penalties and civil sanctions if we fail to comply with these standards.
Because we depend on key management, the loss of the services or advice of any of these persons could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
Our success is dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified and experienced management and personnel. We do not presently maintain key person life insurance for any of our personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain key personnel in the future, and our inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on us. Our management team will need to work together effectively to successfully develop and implement our business strategies and financial operations. In addition, management will need to devote significant attention and resources to preserve and strengthen relationships with employees, customers and the investor community. If our management team is unable to achieve these goals, our ability to grow our business and successfully meet operational challenges could be impaired.
We do not have long-term agreements or exclusive guaranteed order contracts with our home care, hospital and healthcare facility clients.
The success of our business depends upon our ability to continually secure new orders from home care clients, hospitals and other healthcare facilities and to fill those orders with our temporary healthcare professionals. We do not have long-term agreements or exclusive guaranteed order contracts with our home care, hospital and healthcare facility clients. We rely on our agencies to establish and maintain positive relationships with these clients. If we, or our agents, fail to maintain positive relationships with our home care, hospital and healthcare facility clients, we may be unable to generate new temporary healthcare professional orders and our business may be adversely affected. In addition, many of these clients may have devised strategies to reduce the expenditures on temporary healthcare workers and to limit overall agency utilization. If current pressures to control agency usage continue and escalate, we will have fewer business opportunities, which could harm our business.

Sales and profitability in our Pharmacy segment depends on continued demonstration of the effectiveness of our DailyMed business model, which is in its early stages of broad market roll-out.
The success of our Pharmacy segment is dependent on the viability and continued demonstration of the effectiveness of the DailyMed business model, which is in the early stages of market roll-out. As an innovative, first to market pharmacy care model, DailyMed is challenging the approach of traditional community based retail pharmacies and others to providing pharmacy products and services. It is providing a unique opportunity for at risk payers to substantially reduce health care costs. Market adoption and customer acceptance are key to continued growth in revenues as is payer adoption of DailyMed as part of efforts to reduce overall health care spend. To date, competitive responses to DailyMed have yet to evolve. Our ability to grow revenue and receive compensation for the value-added services we provide are keys to the long-term financial viability of the DailyMed business model.
Our operations subject us to risk of litigation.
Operating in the homecare industry exposes us to an inherent risk of wrongful death, personal injury, professional malpractice and other potential claims or litigation brought by our consumers and employees. These claims may include allegations that we did not properly treat or care for a consumer or that we failed to follow internal or external procedures that resulted in death or harm to a consumer.
In addition, regulatory agencies may initiate administrative proceedings alleging violations of statutes and regulations arising from our services and seek to impose monetary penalties on us. We could be required to pay substantial amounts to respond to regulatory investigations or, if we do not prevail, damages or penalties arising from these legal proceedings. We also are subject to potential lawsuits under the False Claims Act or other federal and state whistleblower statutes designed to combat fraud and abuse in our industry. These lawsuits can involve significant monetary awards or penalties which may not be covered by our insurance. If our third-party insurance coverage and self-insurance reserves are not adequate to cover these claims, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even if we are successful in our defense, civil lawsuits or regulatory proceedings could distract management from running our business or irreparably damage our reputation.
A significant decline in sales in our home care and staffing businesses would adversely impact our revenue, operating income and cash flow and our ability to repay indebtedness and invest in new products and services.
Our home care and staffing businesses have traditionally accounted for the majority of our revenue, operating profit and cash flow. Our business strategy is premised upon continued growth in these segments consistent with underlying market trends. While we believe we are well-positioned to increase sales in these segments, there can be no assurance that we will do so. Failure to achieve our sales targets in these market segments would adversely impact our revenue. While operating expense reductions and other actions would be taken in response to a decline in projected sales, there is a risk that such a reduction would adversely affect our projected operating income and cash flow. If this were to occur, we would have less cash available to repay short-term and long-term indebtedness. We may also have to reduce our investment in other segments of the business and modify our business strategy.
Sales of certain of our services and products are largely dependent upon payments from governmental programs and private insurance, and cost containment initiatives by these payers may reduce our revenues, thereby harming our performance.
In the U.S., healthcare providers and consumers who purchase home care services, prescription drug products and related products and services generally rely on third party payers, such as Medicare and Medicaid, to reimburse all or part of the cost of the healthcare product or service. Our sales and profitability are affected by the efforts of healthcare payors to contain or reduce the cost of healthcare by lowering reimbursement rates, limiting the scope of covered services, and negotiating reduced or capitated pricing arrangements. Any changes which lower reimbursement levels under Medicare, Medicaid or private pay programs, including managed care contracts, could reduce our future revenue. Furthermore, other changes in these reimbursement programs or in related regulations could reduce our future revenue. These changes may include modifications in the timing or processing of payments and other changes intended to limit or decrease the growth of Medicare, Medicaid or third party expenditures. In addition, our profitability may be adversely affected by any efforts of our suppliers to shift healthcare costs by increasing the net prices on the products we obtain from them.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive and we may be unable to compete successfully against competitors with greater resources.
We compete in markets that are constantly changing, intensely competitive (given low barriers to entry), highly fragmented and subject to dynamic economic conditions. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, reduced gross margins, loss of customers, and loss of market share, any of which could harm our net revenue and results of operations. Many of our competitors and potential competitors have more capital and marketing and technical resources than we do. These competitors and potential competitors include large drugstore chains, pharmacy benefits managers, on-line marketers, national wholesalers, and national and regional distributors. Further, the Company may face a significant competitive challenge from alliances entered into between and among its competitors, major HMO’s or chain drugstores, as well as from larger competitors created through industry consolidation. These potential competitors may be able to respond more quickly than we can to emerging market changes or changes in customer needs. To the extent competitors seek to gain or retain market share by reducing prices or increasing marketing expenditures, we could lose revenues or clients. In addition, relatively few barriers to entry exist in local healthcare markets. As a result, we could encounter increased competition in the future that may increase pricing pressure and limit our ability to maintain or increase our market share for our mail order pharmacy and related businesses.
We cannot predict the impact that registration of shares may have on the price of the Company’s shares of common stock.
We cannot predict the impact, if any, that sales of, or the availability for sale of, shares of our common stock by selling security holders pursuant to a prospectus or otherwise will have on the market price of our securities prevailing from time to time. The possibility that substantial amounts of our common stock might enter the public market could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to fund acquisitions or to raise capital in the future through the sales of securities. Sales of substantial amounts of our securities, including shares issued upon the exercise of options or warrants, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely effect prevailing market prices for our securities.
The price of our common stock has been, and will likely continue to be, volatile, which could diminish the ability to recoup an investment, or to earn a return on an investment, in our common stock.
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated over a wide range, and it is likely that it will continue to do so in the future. Limited demand for our common stock has resulted in limited liquidity, and it may be difficult to dispose of our securities. Due to the volatility of the price of our common stock, an investor may be unable to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price paid for them, thereby exposing an investor to the risk that he may not recoup an investment in our common stock or earn a return on such an investment. In the past, securities class action litigation has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. If we are the target of similar litigation in the future, we would be exposed to incurring significant litigation costs. This would also divert management’s attention and resources, all of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations.
Resale of our securities by any holder may be limited and affected by state blue-sky laws, which could adversely affect the price of our securities and the holder’s investment in our Company.
Under the securities laws of some states, shares of common stock and warrants can be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states, warrants and shares of common stock may not be sold unless these shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with. The requirement of a seller to comply with the requirements of state blue sky laws may lead to delay or inability of a holder of our securities to dispose of such securities, thereby causing an adverse effect on the resale price of our securities.

The issuance of our preferred stock could materially impact the market price of our common stock and the rights of holders of our common stock.
We are authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of serial preferred stock, par value $0.001. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by our Board of Directors. Except as otherwise provided in our Restated Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors has the authority to fix by resolution adopted before the issuance of any shares of each particular series of preferred stock, the designation, powers, preferences, and relative participating, optional and other rights, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions of that series. The issuance of our preferred stock could materially impact the price of our common stock and the rights of holders of our common stock, including voting rights. The issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of common stock, and may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our common stock. The existence of authorized but unissued preferred stock may enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.
The exercise of common stock warrants and stock options may depress our stock price and may result in dilution to our common security holders.
Warrants to purchase approximately 4.0 million shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2009, and we expect to issue an additional 7.1 million warrants in November 2009 upon finalizing a pending equity transaction. Options to purchase approximately 3.5 million shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2009 and another 2.3 million options were granted in October 2009. The Arcadia Resources, Inc. 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as amended on October 14, 2009, allows for the granting of additional incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted shares up to 15 million shares (5.0% of our authorized shares of common stock as of the date the Plan was approved).
If the market price of our common stock is above the exercise price of some of the outstanding warrants or options; the holders of those warrants or options may exercise their warrants or options and sell the common stock acquired upon exercise of such derivative security in the public market. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market may depress the prevailing market price for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the future sale of our equity securities. Additionally, if the holders of outstanding warrants exercise those warrants, our common security holders will suffer dilution. The exercise price and the number of shares subject to the warrant or option is subject to adjustment upon stock dividends, splits and combinations, as well as certain anti-dilution adjustments as set forth in the respective common stock warrants.
We depend on our affiliated agencies and our internal sales force to sell our services and products, the loss of which could adversely affect our business.
We rely upon our affiliated agencies and our internal sales force to sell our staffing and home care services and our internal sales force to sell our pharmacy products and services. Arcadia Services’ affiliated agencies are owner-operated businesses. The primary responsibilities of Arcadia Services’ affiliated agencies include the recruitment and training of field staff employed by Arcadia Services and generating and maintaining sales to Arcadia Services’ customers. The arrangements with affiliated agencies are formalized through a standard contractual agreement, which state performance requirements of the affiliated agencies. Our employees provide the services to our customers and the affiliated agents and internal sales force are restricted by non-competition agreements. In the event of loss of our affiliated agents or internal sales force personnel, we would recruit new sales and marketing personnel and/or affiliated agents, which could cause our operating costs to increase and our sales to fall in the interim.
Declines in prescription volumes may negatively affect our net revenues and profitability.
We dispense significant volumes of brand-name and generic drugs as part of our Pharmacy business, which we expect to be a significant source of our net revenues and profitability. Demand for prescription drugs can be negatively affected by a number of factors, including increased safety risk problems, manufacturing issues, regulatory action, and negative press or media coverage. Certain prescriptions may also be withdrawn by their manufacturer or transition to over-the-counter products. A reduction in the use of prescription drugs may negatively affect our volumes, net revenues, profitability and cash flows.

The success of our business depends on maintaining a well-secured pharmacy operation and technology infrastructure and failure to execute could adversely impact our business.
We depend on our infrastructure, including our information systems, for many aspects of our business operations, particularly our pharmacy operations. A fundamental requirement for our business is the secure storage and transmission of personal health information and other confidential data and we must maintain our business processes and information systems, and the integrity of our confidential information. Although we have developed systems and processes that are designed to protect information against security breaches, failure to protect such information or mitigate any such breaches may adversely affect our operations. Malfunctions in our business processes, breaches of our information systems or the failure to maintain effective and up-to-date information systems could disrupt our business operations, result in customer and member disputes, damage our reputation, expose us to risk of loss or litigation, result in regulatory violations, increase administrative expenses or lead to other adverse consequences.
Any impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets could negatively impact our results of operations.
Our goodwill is subject to an impairment test on an annual basis and is also tested whenever events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Any excess goodwill resulting from the impairment test must be written off in the period of determination. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are generally amortized over the useful life of such assets. In addition, from time to time, we may acquire or make an investment in a business which will require us to record goodwill based on the purchase price and the value of the acquired assets. We may subsequently experience unforeseen issues with such business which adversely affect the anticipated returns of the business or value of the intangible assets and trigger an evaluation of the recoverability of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets for such business. Future determinations of significant write-offs of goodwill or intangible assets as a result of an impairment test or any accelerated amortization of other intangible assets could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition. We will complete our annual impairment analysis for goodwill in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance during our fiscal fourth quarter.
Negative publicity or changes in public perception of our services may adversely affect our ability to receive referrals, obtain new agreements and renew existing agreements.
Our success in receiving referrals, obtaining new agreements and renewing our existing agreements depends upon maintaining our reputation as a quality service provider among governmental authorities, physicians, hospitals, discharge planning departments, case managers, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, advocacy groups, consumers and their families, other referral sources and the public. Negative publicity, changes in public perceptions of our services or government investigations of our operations could damage our reputation and hinder our ability to receive referrals, retain agreements or obtain new agreements. Increased government scrutiny may also contribute to an increase in compliance costs and could discourage consumers from using our services. Any of these events could have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.
Several anti-takeover measures under Nevada law could delay or prevent a change of control, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our common stock.
Several anti-takeover measures under Nevada law could delay or prevent a change of control, despite such change of control being in the best interest of the holders of our common stock. This could make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise. This could negatively impact the value of an investment in our common stock, by discouraging a potential suitor who may otherwise be willing to offer a premium for shares of our common stock.
