CONMED HEALTHCARE MANAGEMENT, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Conmed Healthcare Management, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Conmed”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires) contained herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the financial information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared annually in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. Readers of this report should, therefore, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on March 25, 2010.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) which are considered necessary to fairly present our financial position and our results of operations as of and for these periods have been made.

Our interim results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for a full year.

In January 2010, we purchased approximately $45,000 and $102,000 of fixed assets and intangible assets, respectively, from a small mobile imaging company to expand the base of services that we provide to our customers, as such services were previously subcontracted. This acquisition did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations and therefore additional proforma information has not been presented.

NOTE 2.

New Accounting Standards

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The update provides amendments to FASB Accounting Standards Codification 820-10, Fair Value, which requires entities to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers. In addition, the update requires entities to present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The disclosures related to Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements became effective for us in 2010 and the disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements are effective for us in 2011. The update requires new disclosures and will have no impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 3.

Common Stock Options

The Board of Directors has adopted, and our stockholders have approved, the 2007 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “2007 Plan”). On May 25, 2010, the 2007 Plan was amended to increase the total number of shares available from 2,350,000 to 3,100,000. The 2007 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options and restricted stock units. The 2007 Plan is administered by the independent members of the Board of Directors, which has the authority and discretion to determine: the persons to whom the options will be granted; when the options will be granted; the number of shares subject to each option; the price at which the shares subject to each option may be purchased; and when each option will become exercisable. The options generally vest over three to four years and expire no later than ten years from the date of grant.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $465,516 and $475,597, respectively, and during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $161,579 and $151,328, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, options were granted to purchase 258,500 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $3.21 per share and an average grant date fair value of $2.07 per share. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, options to purchase 28,083 shares of common stock were forfeited, options to purchase 1,750 shares of common stock were cancelled, options to purchase 3,021 shares of common stock were exercised at an average exercise price of $2.08 per share and, as of September 30, 2010, 852,166 shares remain available for grant.

Page - 5 -

As of September 30, 2010, stock-based compensation expense not yet recognized in income totaled $889,795, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining period of 1.11 years.

NOTE 4.

NOTE 5.

Fair Value of Warrants

As a result of adopting derivative accounting for certain warrants which contain a strike price adjustment feature, effective January 1, 2009, 1,705,000 of our then issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants previously treated as equity were no longer afforded equity treatment. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and all changes in the fair value of these warrants are recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised, amended or expire.

NOTE 6.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company is required to disclose the fair value measurements required by the fair value measurement guidance. The derivative financial instruments recorded at fair value in the balance sheets as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.

The following tables summarize the financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis segregated by the level of valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Equity-linked financial instruments consist of stock warrants issued by the Company that contain a strike price adjustment feature. In accordance with derivative accounting for warrants, we calculated the fair value of warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions used are described in Note 5, “Fair Value of Warrants”. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a $391,223 unrealized gain and a $32,590 realized loss, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we recognized a $1,632,695 unrealized loss and a $55,927 realized loss related to the change in fair value of the financial instruments which is included in Other Income (Expense) on the Statement of Operations.

NOTE 8.

Income Tax Matters

Our effective tax rate was 45.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010, which differs from the expected tax rate of 39.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation and derivatives related to warrants. The change in our effective tax rate from prior periods is primarily due to the relation of our taxable income relative to pre-tax income. We recorded income tax expense of $980,000 and $402,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We recorded income tax expense of $366,700 and $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

General

We provide healthcare services to county and municipal detention centers across the United States. As a result of the Supreme Court decision in Estelle v. Gamble (1976), all individuals held against their will are required to be provided with community standard healthcare. Under this requirement, correctional institutions are required to provide healthcare services for their inmates. We are a specialist in the provision of these services, having provided correctional healthcare services since 1984. We began providing correctional healthcare services in the State of Maryland, and currently serve county and municipal correctional facilities in thirty-seven counties in seven states: Arizona, Kansas, Maryland, Oklahoma, Oregon, Virginia and Washington. Our services have expanded to include mental health, pharmacy and out-of-facility healthcare services.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the requirements of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim periods and require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and related medical expense accruals and amortization and potential impairment of intangible assets and goodwill and stock-based compensation expense. As these are condensed consolidated financial statements, one should also read expanded information about our critical accounting policies and estimates provided in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on March 25, 2010. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Summary

Net revenue from medical services provided primarily to correctional institutions for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $15,390,976 and $13,643,317, respectively, which represents an increase of $1,747,659 or 12.8%. Net income was $547,172 or 3.6% of revenue, compared to net income of $853,716, or 6.3% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which represented a decrease in net income of $306,544.

Revenue

The addition of service contracts signed with new jurisdictions since July 1, 2009 accounted for $1,438,746 or 82.3% of the increase in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period for the prior year. These jurisdictions are as follows: Clark County, WA; Garrett County, MD; Kittitas County, WA; Pima County (Juvenile), AZ; and Roanoke City, VA. Revenue improvement totaling $109,479, or 6.3% of the increase, resulted primarily from expansion of the services provided under a number of our existing contracts in which we were providing services prior to July 1, 2009. Price increases related to existing service requirements totaled ($3,935), or (0.2)% of the revenue increase, and was the result of $178,354 in price increases offset by repricings under the two year amendment to the Pima County contract which began on July 1, 2010. The remainder of revenue improvement, $203,369 or 11.6% of the increase, was the result of other volume related activities, primarily associated with an increase in stop/loss reimbursements due to higher out of facility medical expenditures in excess of stop/loss limits which are billed back to the client and was partially offset by revenue adjustments related to lower inmate populations at certain facilities.

Healthcare Expenses

Salaries and employee benefits

Salaries and employee benefits for healthcare employees were $8,729,743 or 56.7% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $7,900,235 or 57.9% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in spending for salaries and employee benefits of $829,508, or 10.5%, is due primarily to the addition of new healthcare employees required to support the staffing requirements for our new medical service contracts as detailed above. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits as a percentage of revenue is due to a change in the mix of expense for salaries and benefits. In addition to providing staffing services, the new service contracts primarily include responsibility for medical services both in and out of the facility, as well as pharmacy services, resulting in a lower ratio of salaries and employee benefits to revenue.

Medical expenses

Medical expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $3,289,376, or 21.4% of revenue, and $2,485,024, or 18.2% of revenue, respectively, which represented an increase of $804,352 or 32.4%. The increase in spending for medical expenses in absolute dollars primarily reflects increases related to new contracts for medical services both in and out of the facility plus higher expenditures for pharmacy services. The increase in spending as a percentage of revenue results, in part, from the new service contracts added since July 1, 2009 that are primarily full service contracts and, as a result, included a higher proportion of medical expense when compared to existing contracts. Additionally, two of our existing service contracts experienced higher than normal hospitalization charges which partially exceeded stop/loss limits and these charges were billed back to those clients. Expenses for providing pharmacy services for existing service contracts increased due to increases in pharmaceutical prices as well as an increase in HIV treatment expenditures compared to the prior period.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses were $598,863, or 3.9% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $524,950, or 3.8% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase of $73,913 in spending is primarily related to an increase in legal, consulting and business development fees, which were partially offset by a decrease in recruiting expense.

Operating Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $2,076,918, or 13.5% of revenue, and $2,014,378, or 14.8% of revenue, respectively. The increased expenditure of $62,540 primarily reflects an increased investment in additional management and administrative personnel required to support new contracts and services added since July 1, 2009, which was partially offset by decreases in accounting fees, travel expenses, business development fees, consulting and legal fees. The reduction in spending as a percentage of revenue resulted from improved economies of scale as selling and administrative expenses continue to grow at a slower pace than revenue. Stock-based compensation for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $161,579 and $151,328, respectively.

Page - 13 -

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization primarily reflects the amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Conmed, Inc. in January 2007, the purchase of medical service contracts from Emergency Medicine Documentation Consultants, P.C. (“EMDC”) in February 2008 and the acquisition of Correctional Mental Health Services, LLC (“CMHS”) in November 2008. Amortization of service contracts acquired was $80,000, or 0.5% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $230,000, or 1.7% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease primarily reflects a decrease in amortization expense as certain individual service contracts acquired have become fully amortized. Amortization of non-compete agreements was $68,668, or 0.4% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $96,000, or 0.7% of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Depreciation expense increased to $66,573 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $61,392 for the prior year period due primarily to capital expenditures associated with purchases of vehicles and medical equipment which was partially offset by lower computer depreciation as certain assets have been fully depreciated.

Interest income

Interest income was $27,025 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $16,547 for the same period in 2009. Higher average cash balances and increased short-term interest rates during the three months ended September 30, 2010 account for the increased interest income compared to the same period in 2009.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased to $0 compared to $819 in the same period in 2009.

Gain (loss) on fair value of derivatives

As a result of adopting derivative accounting for certain warrants which contain a strike price adjustment feature effective January 1, 2009, 1,705,000 of our then issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants previously treated as equity were no longer afforded equity treatment and as a result they are now recorded as a liability based on fair value estimates. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and all changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised, amended or expire.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized a $438,602 and a $719,930 unrealized gain, respectively. The decreased gain of $281,328 was primarily the result of our stock price decreasing $0.35 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to a $0.50 decrease in stock price during the three months ended September 30, 2009. Additionally, there were 813,000 fewer warrants subject to fair value accounting during the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to the amendment of certain warrant agreements to remove the provisions that resulted in liability treatment subsequent to September 30, 2009.

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, no warrants were exercised and warrants to purchase 90,000 shares of common stock were amended and are now treated as equity. As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 628,097 shares of common stock. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, warrants to purchase 15,333 shares of common stock were exercised by cashless exercise and as a result, a total of 11,893 shares of common stock were issued. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, warrants to purchase 91,570 shares of common stock were amended and have since been treated as equity. As of September 30, 2009, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 1,441,097 shares of common stock.

The following table summarizes the change in fair value for the three months ended September 30:

See Note 5, “Fair Value of Warrants”, for additional information on the warrant activity subject to fair value accounting for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

Income tax expense

Our effective tax rate was 40.1% during the three months ended September 30, 2010 which differs from the expected tax rate of 39.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation and derivatives related to warrants. The change in our effective tax rate from prior periods is primarily due to the relation of our taxable income relative to pre-tax income. We recorded income tax expense of $366,700 and $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Summary

Net revenue from medical services provided primarily to correctional institutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $44,881,099 and $38,775,309, respectively, which represents an increase of $6,105,790, or 15.7%. Net income was $1,172,864, or 2.6% of revenue, compared to a net loss of $1,439,760, or 3.7% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, which represented an increase in net income of $2,612,624.

Revenue

The addition of service contracts signed with new jurisdictions since January 1, 2009 accounted for $4,737,434, or 77.6% of the increase in revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the same period for the prior year. These jurisdictions are as follows: Clark County, WA; Coos County, OR; Creek County, OK; Garrett County, MD; Kittitas County, WA; Pima County (Juvenile), AZ; Roanoke City, VA; Washington County, MD; and Western Virginia Regional Jail, VA. Revenue improvement totaling $881,291, or 14.4% of the increase, resulted primarily from expansion of the services provided under a number of our existing contracts in which we were providing services prior to January 1, 2009. Price increases related to existing service requirements totaled $506,488, or 8.3% of the revenue increase. The increase in revenue was partially offset by $(19,423), or (0.3)% of revenue, which was the result of decreases in other volume related activities, primarily associated with lower inmate populations at certain facilities partially offset by an increase in stop/loss reimbursements due to higher out of facility medical expenditures in excess of stop/loss limits which are billed back to clients.

Healthcare Expenses

Salaries and employee benefits

Salaries and employee benefits for healthcare employees were $25,435,552, or 56.7% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $22,138,330, or 57.1% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase in spending for salaries and employee benefits of $3,297,222, or 14.9%, is due primarily to the addition of new healthcare employees resulting from new business. Approximately 78.6% of the increase related to new healthcare employees required to support the staffing requirements for our new medical service contracts as detailed above. Additional services related to previously existing medical service contracts, as well as cost-of-living and wage and benefit adjustments for existing employees accounted for the remainder of the increase.

Medical expenses

Medical expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $9,301,119, or 20.7% of revenue, and $7,248,420, or 18.7% of revenue, respectively, which represented an increase of $2,052,699, or 28.3%. The increase in spending for medical expenses in absolute dollars primarily reflects increases related to new contracts for medical services both in and out of the facility plus increased expenditures for pharmacy services. The increase in spending as a percentage of revenue results, in part, from the new service contracts added since January 1, 2009 that are primarily full service contracts and, as a result, included a higher proportion of medical expense when compared to existing contracts. In addition, out of facility hospital expenses were higher than the prior year, reflecting a return to normal spending levels, due to lower than normal hospitalization days in the first six months of 2009. Additionally, expenses for providing pharmacy services for existing service contracts increased due to increases in pharmaceutical prices as well as an increase in HIV treatment expenditures compared to the prior period.

Other operating expenses

Other operating expenses were $1,540,391, or 3.4% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $1,388,780, or 3.6% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The increase of $151,611 in spending is primarily related to the increase in the number of inmates served as a result of the new service contracts and reflects increased spending for consulting fees, professional liability insurance, business development fees and travel expenses partially offset by a reduction in employment advertising and recruiting expense.

Operating Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses

Selling and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $6,067,251, or 13.5% of revenue, and $5,774,101, or 14.9% of revenue, respectively. The increased expenditure of $293,150 primarily reflects investment in management and administrative personnel required to support new contracts and services added since January 1, 2009, as well as increases in consulting fees and corporate advertising which were partially offset by lower accounting fees, legal fees, business development fees and rent expense. The reduction in spending as a percentage of revenue reflects improved economies of scale as selling and administrative expenses continue to grow at a slower pace than revenue. Stock-based compensation for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $465,516 and $475,597, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization primarily reflects the amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Conmed, Inc. in January 2007, the purchase of medical service contracts from EMDC in February 2008 and the acquisition of CMHS in November 2008. Amortization of service contracts acquired was $372,000, or 0.8% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $1,187,000, or 3.1% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease primarily reflects lower amortization expense as certain individual service contracts acquired have become fully amortized. Amortization of non-compete agreements was $235,447, or 0.5% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to $289,000, or 0.7% of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Depreciation expense increased to $207,493 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $151,951 for the prior year period reflecting capital expenditures associated with vehicle purchases as well as purchases of medical equipment at various facilities.

Interest income

Interest income was $72,385 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $61,127 for the same period in 2009. Average cash balances were higher during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, however the marginally higher interest income in 2010 reflects reduced short-term interest rates during the period.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 decreased to $0 compared to $7,991 in the same period in 2009.

Gain (loss) on fair value of derivatives

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized a $391,223 unrealized gain and a $1,632,695 unrealized loss, respectively. The decreased expense of $2,023,918 was primarily the result of our stock price decreasing $0.12 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to a $1.15 stock price increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Additionally, there were 813,000 fewer warrants subject to fair value accounting during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to the amendment of certain warrant agreements to remove the provisions that resulted in liability treatment subsequent to September 30, 2009.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, no warrants were exercised and warrants to purchase 90,000 shares of common stock were amended and are now treated as equity. As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 628,097 shares of common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, warrants to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock were exercised generating $12,000 of net proceeds and warrants to purchase 132,333 shares of common stock were exercised by cashless exercise and as a result, a total of 155,783 shares of common stock were issued. As of September 30, 2009, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 1,441,097 shares of common stock.

The following table summarizes the change in fair value for the nine months ended September 30:

	2010			2009
Fair value of warrants outstanding as of January 1	$	1,299,450		$	2,766,150
Realized loss on warrants		32,590			55,927
Unrealized (gain) loss on warrants		(391,223	)		1,632,695
Fair value of warrants transferred to equity upon amendment		(282,670	)		(290,968	)
Fair value of warrants exercised		—			(442,937	)
Fair value of warrants outstanding as of September 30	$	658,147		$	3,720,867

See Note 5, “Fair Value of Warrants”, for additional information on the warrant activity subject to fair value accounting for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

Income tax expense

Our effective tax rate was 45.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 which differs from the expected tax rate of 39.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation and derivatives related to warrants. The change in our effective tax rate from prior periods is primarily due to the relation of our taxable income relative to pre-tax income. We recorded income tax expense of $980,000 and $402,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Financing is generally provided by funds generated from our operating activities.

Cash Flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2009

Cash as of September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 was $13,008,470 and $10,119,183, respectively. We believe that our existing cash balances and anticipated cash flows from future operations will be sufficient to meet our normal operating requirements and liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 totaled $2,245,099, reflecting a net income of $1,172,864 plus $960,573 in adjustments for non-cash expenses such as amortization of intangible assets of $607,447, amortization of long-term customer agreement of $43,750, stock-based compensation of $465,516, change in fair value of warrants of ($358,633), depreciation of $207,493 and deferred income taxes of ($5,000). Changes in working capital components provided $111,662, reflective of an increase in accounts payable of $742,019 and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $638,623 partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $682,185 and decreases in accrued expenses of $280,170, deferred revenue of $191,008 and income taxes payable of $115,617. The increase in accounts payable was primarily from the receipt of medical expense invoices which were previously estimated in accrued expenses as well as the timing of vendor payments in relation to quarter end. The decrease in prepaid expenses resulted primarily from a reduction in prepaid professional liability insurance. We prepaid our annual professional liability insurance policy premium in October 2009 and we expense the prepaid amounts ratably during the annual policy period of October through September. The increase in accounts receivable resulted primarily from new medical service contracts added in 2010 as well as increased receivables for stop/loss reimbursements due to higher out of facility medical expenditures in excess of stop/loss limits. The decrease in accrued expenses resulted primarily from the receipt of medical expense invoices that are now recorded in accounts payable, a decrease in accrued wages covering seven less days as compared to the accrual at December 31, 2009 and a reduction in corporate accrued expenses which were partially offset by increases in accruals for employee benefits for paid time off and health insurance. Deferred revenue decreased primarily as a result of a reduction in advance customer payments received prior to quarter end. The decrease in income taxes payable resulted primarily from the payment of scheduled estimated taxes partially offset by accruals of estimated taxes payable.

Cash flow from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 totaled $3,111,164. The net loss of $1,439,760 was offset by $3,415,171 in adjustments for non-cash expenses such as the change in fair value of derivatives of $1,688,623, amortization of $1,476,000, stock-based compensation of $475,597 and deferred income taxes of $377,000. Changes in working capital components generated an additional $1,135,753, reflective of increases in accounts payable of $120,886, accrued expenses of $766,590, income taxes payable of $220,860 and deferred revenue of $374,888, as well as a decrease in prepaid expenses of $114,820 partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $462,016. The increase in accounts payable resulted primarily from the timing of vendor payments in relation to quarter end. The increase in accrued expenses resulted primarily from the addition of new healthcare employees required to support the increased staffing requirements from our new medical service contracts in addition to the wage accrual covering eight additional days as compared to December 31, 2008 partially offset by a reduction in accrued medical expenses. The increase in income taxes payable resulted primarily from our increased estimate of taxable income, resulting in taxes payable in excess of scheduled estimated tax payments. The increase in deferred revenue resulted primarily from an increase in advance customer payments for services to be provided in the future. The decrease in prepaid expenses resulted primarily from a reduction in prepaid professional liability insurance as September is the end of the primary policy period. The increase in accounts receivable resulted primarily from new medical service contracts added in 2009.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation and changing prices over the past three years have had a significant impact on our revenue or results of operations.

Potential Future Service Contract Revenue

As of September 30, 2010, we have entered into 60 agreements with county governments to provide medical and healthcare services primarily to county and municipal correctional facilities. Most of these contracts are for multiple years and include option renewal periods which are, in all cases, at the county's option. The original terms of the contracts are from one to nine years. These medical and mental healthcare service contracts have potential future service contract revenue of $176 million as of September 30, 2010, with a weighted-average term of 3.7 years including option renewal periods, of which approximately $57 million relates to the initial contract period and approximately $119 million relates to the option renewal periods.
