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, 2010, as amended, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2011.

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 six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for a full year.
 
NOTE 2.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
 
On July 11, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ayelet Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Ayelet Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ayelet (“Merger Sub”).  Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of James H. Desnick, M.D.

The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of common stock of the Company (other than shares (i) owned by Parent or Merger Sub, (ii) held in treasury by the Company, (iii) owned by stockholders who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights under Delaware law or (iv) owned by any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive $3.85 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), and each outstanding option and warrant, including unexercised and unvested options and warrants, (other than warrants owned by Parent or Merger Sub) to purchase a share of common stock will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, net of the option or warrant exercise price, in each case less applicable withholding taxes and without interest.

The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted and approved the Merger Agreement, and deemed it advisable and in the best interests of the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby. Gleacher & Company Securities, Inc. delivered a fairness opinion to the Board of Directors.

The completion of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among other things, obtaining the approval of the Company’s stockholders and other customary closing conditions. In the Merger Agreement, the Company has made customary representations, warranties and covenants, including agreements restricting the Company’s operations in certain respects pending the closing. Moreover, each party’s obligation to consummate the Merger is subject to certain other conditions, including the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties (subject to customary materiality qualifiers) and the other party’s compliance with its covenants and agreements contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to customary materiality qualifiers).

The Company may not solicit “Company Acquisition Proposals” (as defined in the Merger Agreement). However, the Company’s Board of Directors is permitted to participate in certain discussions regarding a “Company Acquisition Proposal” that the Board of Directors in good faith reasonably believes constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a “Superior Proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

The aggregate Merger Consideration is approximately $57.2 million, which will be funded through a combination of (i) equity financing in the aggregate amount of approximately $27.3 million to be provided by Dr. Desnick pursuant to an equity commitment letter, (ii) a senior secured note with a face amount of $20.0 million and a purchase price of $18.5 million and a $5.5 million convertible note to be provided by Levine Leichtman Capital Partners (or an affiliate thereof) pursuant to a debt commitment letter and (iii) the Company’s cash on hand.

The Merger Agreement contains termination rights for both the Company and Parent, including the right of the Company in certain circumstances to terminate the Merger Agreement and accept a Superior Proposal. Upon termination under specified circumstances, the Company would be required to pay Parent a termination fee of approximately $2.3 million. In addition, the Company would be required to reimburse Parent for its documented out-of-pocket expenses in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain other circumstances, including in the event the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Merger, provided that the total amount of the termination fee and expenses paid to Parent will not exceed approximately $2.9 million. Upon termination under specified circumstances, Parent would be required to pay the Company a termination fee of approximately $2.3 million. Parent’s payment obligations with respect to the termination fee payable to the Company has been guaranteed by Dr. Desnick, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a Limited Guarantee, dated as of July 11, 2011.
 
NOTE 3.
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 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 3 fair value measurements became effective for us on January 1, 2011.  The update required new disclosures and did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
NOTE 4.
Common Stock Options
 
The Board of Directors has adopted, and our stockholders have approved, the 2007 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan provides for the grant of up to 3,100,000 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $211,332 and $303,937, respectively, and during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded stock-based compensation expense totaling $106,503 and $144,506, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, options were granted to purchase 160,000 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $3.26 per share and an average grant date fair value of $2.13 per share.  Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, options to purchase 23,042 shares of common stock were forfeited, options to purchase 48,125 shares of common stock were cancelled and options to purchase 83,334 shares of common stock were exercised at an average exercise price of $2.01 per share.  As of June 30, 2011, 597,062 shares remain available for grant under the 2007 Plan.

As of June 30, 2011, stock-based compensation expense not yet recognized in income totaled $1,156,563, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining period of 2.81 years. On the closing date of the merger, the full amount of compensation expense not yet recognized will be recognized as compensation expense.

NOTE 6.
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 the assumptions we use are set forth below.  The risk free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the warrant is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve and the expected life is based on our estimate of warrant exercises since historical data is not available.  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.

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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 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 6, “Fair Value of Warrants”.  During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized a $313,378 unrealized loss and during the six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized a $47,379 unrealized 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 9.
Income Tax Matters
 
Our effective tax rate was 50.2% and 49.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which differs from the expected tax rate of 40.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation, derivatives related to warrants and Merger-related expenses.  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 $257,000 and $613,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  We recorded an income tax benefit of $36,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and income tax expense of $343,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results or events expressed or implied therein will not be realized. You are advised, however, to consult any further disclosures we make in future public statements and press releases.  More detailed information about us and the risk factors that may affect the realization of forward-looking statements is set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as amended, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2011.

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 forty counties in eight states:  Arizona, Kansas, Maryland, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee, Virginia and Washington. Our services have expanded to include mental health, pharmacy and out-of-facility healthcare services.

The Merger
 
On July 11, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ayelet Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Ayelet Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ayelet (“Merger Sub”).  Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of James H. Desnick, M.D. The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of common stock of the Company (other than shares (i) owned by Parent or Merger Sub, (ii) held in treasury by the Company, (iii) owned by stockholders who have perfected and not withdrawn a demand for appraisal rights under Delaware law or (iv) owned by any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) will be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive $3.85 in cash (the “Merger Consideration”), and each outstanding option and warrant (other than warrants owned by Parent or Merger Sub) to purchase a share of common stock will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, net of the option or warrant exercise price, in each case less applicable withholding taxes and without interest.

The Company’s Board of Directors unanimously adopted and approved the Merger Agreement, and deemed it advisable and in the best interests of the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated thereby. Gleacher & Company Securities, Inc. delivered a fairness opinion to the Board of Directors.

The completion of the Merger is subject to various conditions, including, among other things, obtaining the approval of the Company’s stockholders and other customary closing conditions. In the Merger Agreement, the Company has made customary representations, warranties and covenants, including agreements restricting the Company’s operations in certain respects pending the closing. The Company may not solicit “Company Acquisition Proposals” (as defined in the Merger Agreement). However, the Company’s Board of Directors is permitted to participate in certain discussions regarding a “Company Acquisition Proposal” that the Board of Directors in good faith reasonably believes constitutes or would reasonably be expected to lead to a “Superior Proposal” (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

The aggregate Merger Consideration is approximately $57.2 million, which will be funded through a combination of (i) equity financing in the aggregate amount of approximately $27.3 million to be provided by Dr. Desnick pursuant to an equity commitment letter, (ii) a senior secured note with a face amount of $20.0 million and a purchase price of $18.5 million and a $5.5 million convertible note to be provided by Levine Leichtman Capital Partners (or an affiliate thereof) pursuant to a debt commitment letter and (iii) the Company’s cash on hand.

The Merger Agreement contains termination rights for both the Company and Parent, including the right of the Company in certain circumstances to terminate the Merger Agreement and accept a Superior Proposal. Upon termination under specified circumstances, the Company would be required to pay Parent a termination fee of approximately $2.3 million. In addition, the Company would be required to reimburse Parent for its documented out-of-pocket expenses in the event the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain other circumstances, including in the event the Company’s stockholders do not approve the Merger, provided that the total amount of the termination fee and expenses paid to Parent will not exceed approximately $2.9 million. Upon termination under specified circumstances, Parent would be required to pay the Company a termination fee of approximately $2.3 million. Parent’s payment obligations with respect to the termination fee payable to the Company has been guaranteed by Dr. Desnick, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in a Limited Guarantee, dated as of July 11, 2011.  See Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” for information regarding certain legal proceedings relating to the proposed Merger.
 
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, 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, 2010, as amended, filed with the SEC on March 24, 2011. 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, 2010.
 
Recently Adopted 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 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 3 fair value measurements became effective for us on January 1, 2011.  The update required new disclosures and did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Revenue
The addition of service contracts signed with new jurisdictions since April 1, 2010 accounted for $2,012,035 or 104.9% of the increase in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period for the prior year.  These jurisdictions are as follows: Alexandria, VA; Haywood County, TN; Roanoke City, VA; and Virginia Beach, VA.  Revenue improvement totaling $3,779, or 0.2% 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 April 1, 2010. Price increases related to existing service requirements totaled $84,016, or 4.4% of the revenue increase, and was the result of $266,305 in price increases offset by repricings under the two year extension amendment to the Pima County contract which began on July 1, 2010. Also, partially offsetting the revenue increases above were decreases in other volume related activities totaling $181,189 primarily associated with lower inmate populations at certain facilities in addition to a decrease in stop/loss reimbursements due to lower 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 $9,454,312, or 56.8% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $8,490,509, or 57.6% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in spending for salaries and employee benefits of $963,803, or 11.4%, 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 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 June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $3,472,272, or 20.8% of revenue, and $2,872,001, or 19.5% of revenue, respectively, which represented an increase of $600,271, or 20.9%. 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, primarily, from the new service contracts added since April 1, 2010 that are primarily full service contracts and, as a result, included a higher proportion of medical expense when compared to existing contracts. The increase in spending resulting from new service contracts was partially offset by a 3.7% decrease in medical expenses at existing sites. This decrease in spending at existing sites is primarily the result of a 13.1% decrease in pharmacy and a 12.3% decrease in facility in expenses which were partially offset by a 26.0% increase in out of facility expenses.

Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses were $712,785, or 4.3% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $446,815, or 3.0% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $265,970 in spending is primarily related to an increase in legal, insurance, and travel expenses.

Operating Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses
Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $2,830,841, or 17.0% of revenue, and $1,987,202, or 13.5% of revenue, respectively. The increased expenditure of $843,639 reflects a non-recurring $350,000 sales tax accrual, approximately $364,000 of Merger-related expense, as well as an increased investment in additional management and administrative personnel required to support new contracts and services added since April 1, 2010.  These increases were partially offset by decreases in business development fees, equity based compensation, recruiting, and legal fees.  Stock-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $106,503 and $144,506, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization primarily reflects the amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Conmed, Inc. in January 2007 and the acquisition of Correctional Mental Health Services, LLC (“CMHS”) in November 2008. Amortization of service contracts acquired was $57,000, or 0.3% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $139,000, or 0.9% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. 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 $24,667, or 0.1% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $69,668, or 0.5% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Depreciation expense increased to $78,388 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $71,502 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 become fully depreciated.

Interest income
Interest income was $23,714 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $27,291 for the same period in 2010. Reduced short-term interest rates partially offset by higher average cash balances during the three months ended June 30, 2011 account for the decreased interest income compared to the same period in 2010.

(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 June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized an unrealized loss of $184,285 and $3,695, respectively.  The increased loss of $180,509 was primarily the result of our stock price increasing $0.38 during the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to a $0.10 increase in stock price during the three months ended June 30, 2010.  Additionally, there were 180,667 fewer warrants subject to fair value accounting during the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to the exercise of certain warrant agreements subsequent to June 30, 2010 that were subject to liability treatment.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, warrants to purchase 30,667 shares of common stock were exercised generating $76,668 of net proceeds and warrants to purchase 53,333 shares of common stock were exercised by cashless exercise and as a result, a total of 41,081 shares of common stock were issued.  As of June 30, 2011, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 537,430 shares of common stock.  During the three months ended June 30, 2010, no warrants were exercised.  As of June 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 718,097 shares of common stock.

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

See Note 6, “Fair Value of Warrants”, for additional information on the warrant activity subject to fair value accounting for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Income tax expense (benefit)
Our effective tax rate was 50.2% and 49.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which differs from the expected tax rate of 40.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation, derivatives related to warrants and Merger-related expenses.  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 an income tax benefit of $36,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and income tax expense of $343,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Summary
Net revenue from medical services provided primarily to correctional institutions for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, was $32,967,885 and $29,490,123, respectively, which represents an increase of $3,477,762, or 11.8%. Net income was $254,416, or 0.8% of revenue, compared to $625,692, or 2.1% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which represented a decrease in net income of $371,276.

Revenue
The addition of service contracts signed with new jurisdictions since January 1, 2010 accounted for $3,953,193, or 113.7% of the increase in revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period for the prior year.  These jurisdictions are as follows: Alexandria, VA; Haywood County, TN; Roanoke City, VA; and Virginia Beach, VA.  Revenue improvement totaling $12,473, or 0.4% 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, 2010. Price increases related to existing service requirements totaled $136,714, or 3.9% of the revenue increase over the prior year period, and was the result of $501,292 in price increases offset by repricings under the two year extension amendment to the Pima County contract which began on July 1, 2010. Also, partially offsetting the revenue increases above were decreases in other volume related activities totaling $624,618 primarily associated with lower inmate populations at certain facilities in addition to a decrease in stop/loss reimbursements due to lower 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 $18,750,281, or 56.9% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $16,705,809, or 56.6% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in spending for salaries and employee benefits of $2,044,472, or 12.2%, is due primarily to the addition of new healthcare employees resulting from new business. Approximately 88.7% of the increase is 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $6,891,916, or 20.9% of revenue, and $6,011,743, or 20.4% of revenue, respectively, which represented an increase of $880,173, or 14.6%. The increase in spending for medical expenses in absolute dollars primarily reflects increases related to medical services for new contracts both in- and out-of-facility plus higher expenditures for pharmacy services. The increase in spending as a percentage of revenue results primarily from the new service contracts added since January 1, 2010 that are primarily full service contracts and, as a result, included a higher proportion of medical expense when compared to existing contracts. The increase in spending resulting from new service contracts was partially offset by an 8.0% decrease in medical expenses at existing sites. This decrease in spending at existing sites is primarily the result of a 17.8% decrease in pharmacy and an 8.9% decrease in facility in expenses which were partially offset by an 8.0% increase in out of facility expenses.

Other operating expenses
Other operating expenses were $1,319,716, or 4.0% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $941,528, or 3.2% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase of $378,188 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 legal fees, professional liability insurance, and travel expenses partially offset by a reduction in business development fees.

Operating Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses
Selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $4,858,807, or 14.7% of revenue, and $3,990,333, or 13.5% of revenue, respectively. The increased expenditure of $868,474 reflects a non-recurring $350,000 sales tax accrual, approximately $364,000 of Merger-related expense,  as well as increased investment in management and administrative personnel required to support new contracts and services added since January 1, 2010. These increases as well as increases in travel expenses were partially offset by lower equity based compensation, business development fees, and recruiting expenses.  Stock-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $211,332 and $303,937, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization
Depreciation and amortization primarily reflects the amortization of intangible assets related to the acquisition of Conmed, Inc. in January 2007 and the acquisition of CMHS in November 2008. Amortization of service contracts acquired was $118,000, or 0.4% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $292,000, or 1.0% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. 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 $61,335, or 0.2% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $166,779, or 0.6% of revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Depreciation expense increased to $153,191 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $140,920 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 become fully depreciated.

Interest income
Interest income was $52,244 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $45,360 for the same period in 2010. Higher average cash balances and increased short-term interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2011 account for the increased interest income compared to the same period in 2010.

(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 six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized an unrealized loss of $313,378 and $47,379, respectively.  The increased loss of $265,999 was primarily the result of our stock price increasing $0.60 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a $0.23 increase in stock price during the six months ended June 30, 2010.  Additionally, there were 180,667 fewer warrants subject to fair value accounting during the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to the exercise of certain warrant agreements subsequent to June 30, 2010 that were subject to liability treatment.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, warrants to purchase 37,334 shares of common stock were exercised generating $93,335 of net proceeds and warrants to purchase 53,333 shares of common stock were exercised by cashless exercise and as a result, a total of 41,081 shares of common stock were issued.  As of June 30, 2011, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 537,430 shares of common stock.  During the six months ended June 30, 2010, no warrants were exercised.  As of June 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants subject to derivative accounting to purchase an aggregate of 718,097 shares of common stock.

The following table summarizes the change in fair value for the six months ended June 30:

   
2011
   
2010
 
Fair value of warrants outstanding as of January 1
  $ 692,696     $ 1,299,450

See Note 6, “Fair Value of Warrants”, for additional information on the warrant activity subject to fair value accounting for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Income tax expense
Our effective tax rate was 50.2% and 49.5% during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, which differs from the expected tax rate of 40.0% primarily due to permanent differences related to stock-based compensation, derivatives related to warrants and Merger-related expenses.  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 $257,000 and $613,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Financing is generally provided by funds generated from our operating activities.

Cash Flow for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010
Cash as of June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010 was $14,624,795 and $12,068,889, 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 six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $1,315,193, reflecting a net income of $254,416 plus $1,056,825 in adjustments for non-cash expenses such as amortization of intangible assets of $179,335, amortization of long-term customer agreement of $87,500, stock-based compensation of $211,332, change in fair value of warrants of $355,467, depreciation of $153,191 and deferred income taxes of $70,000.  Changes in working capital components generated an additional $3,952, reflecting a decrease in prepaid expenses of $592,137 and deposits of $201 as well as an increase in accounts payable of $736,345 partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $339,084 as well as a decrease in deferred revenue of $445,634, income taxes payable/receivable of $505,379 and accrued expenses of $34,634.  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 2010 and we expense the prepaid amounts ratably during the annual policy period of October through September.  The increase in accounts payable was primarily due to the addition of new service contracts, increased payables relating to the Merger and an increase in the payables that were previously reflected in accrued expenses.  The increase in accounts receivable resulted primarily from faster collection of receivables on new medical service contracts added in 2010 which was partially offset by increased receivables for stop/loss reimbursements due to out of facility medical expenditures in excess of stop/loss limits related to new service contracts.  The decrease in accrued expenses resulted primarily from a decrease in accrued wages covering one fewer day as compared to the accrual at December 31, 2010 which was partially offset by increases in accruals for Merger related expenses and a non-recurring sales tax accrual.  The decrease in income taxes payable/receivable resulted primarily from the payment of scheduled estimated taxes partially offset by accruals of estimated taxes payable.  Deferred revenue decreased primarily as a result of a reduction in advance customer payments due to their fiscal year ending June 30, 2011 which prohibits them from making advance payments for services pertaining to the next fiscal year.

Cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $1,275,066, reflecting a net income of $625,692 plus $946,015 in adjustments for non-cash expenses such as amortization of $458,779, stock-based compensation of $303,937 and other non-cash expenses of $183,299.  Changes in working capital components used $296,641, reflective of an increase in accounts receivable of $211,995 and decreases in accrued expenses of $611,057, deferred revenue of $803,169 and income taxes payable of $236,897 partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $1,219,602 and a decrease in prepaid expenses of $347,325.  The increase in accounts receivable resulted primarily from new medical service contracts added in 2010.  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 one less day as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2009 and a reduction in corporate accrued expenses.  Deferred revenue decreased primarily as a result of a reduction in advance customer payments due to their fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 which prohibits them from making advance payments for services pertaining to the next fiscal year.  The decrease in income taxes payable resulted primarily from the payment of scheduled estimated taxes partially offset by accruals of estimated taxes payable.  The increase in accounts payable was primarily from the receipt of medical expense invoices previously recorded 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 primary annual professional liability insurance policy in October 2009 and we expense the prepaid amounts ratably from the annual policy period of October through September.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash flow used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 used $221,323 for purchases of property and equipment primarily for purchases of vehicles, computers, software and medical equipment.

Cash flow from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 used $264,632.  Purchases of property and equipment used $117,364 primarily for purchases of vehicles, computers and medical equipment.  The purchase of all of the assets of a small mobile imaging company used $147,268.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash flow from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 generated cash of $260,836 related to the proceeds from the exercise of warrants and stock options.

Cash flow from financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 generated cash of $2,312 related to the proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Loans
As of June 30, 2011, we had no outstanding loans.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are required to provide performance and payment guarantee bonds to county governments under certain contracts. As of June 30, 2011, we have six performance bonds totaling $10,144,204 and two payment bonds for $2,891,925, totaling $13,036,129. The surety issuing the bonds has recourse against our assets in the event the surety is required to honor the bonds.

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 June 30, 2011, we have entered into 64 agreements with county and municipal 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 option of the county or municipality. 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 $172 million as of June 30, 2011, with a weighted-average term of 3.4 years including option renewal periods, of which approximately $47 million relates to the initial contract period and approximately $125 million relates to the option renewal periods.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On July 14, 2011, a purported class action complaint was filed in the Circuit Court for Anne Arundel County, State of Maryland, captioned Noble Equity Fund, LP v. Conmed Healthcare Management, Inc., et. al., Case No.:  02-C-11-162695 on behalf of a putative class of Company stockholders and naming as defendants the Company, all the members of the Company’s Board of Directors, Ayelet Investments LLC and Ayelet Merger Subsidiary, Inc. The plaintiffs generally allege that, in connection with the approval of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, the members of the Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties owed to Company stockholders by, among other things, (i) failing to take steps to maximize the value of the Company to its stockholders because the merger consideration of $3.85 per share allegedly does not reflect the true value of Company stock, and (ii) creating supposedly preclusive deal protection devices in the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The plaintiffs further allege that Ayelet Investments LLC and Ayelet Merger Subsidiary, Inc. aided and abetted the members of the Board of Directors in the alleged breaches of their fiduciary duties. The plaintiffs seek, among other things, a declaration that the members of the Board of Directors have breached their fiduciary duties and that the stockholder vote should be enjoined, an injunction barring consummation of the merger or rescinding, to the extent already implemented, the merger, and damages and attorneys’ fees. On August 5, 2011, the plaintiffs served document requests on all defendants. On August 9, 2011, the plaintiffs filed an Amended Class Action Complaint, adding additional allegations that, among other things, (i) the sales process purportedly favored James Desnick over other bidders; (ii) the members of the Board of Directors were allegedly acting to advance their own interests at the expense of Company stockholders; and (iii) the members of the Board of Directors purportedly failed to comply with their disclosure obligations in the preliminary proxy statement filed on July 21, 2011.
