1.           BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
 
The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended  June 30, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared by Assured Pharmacy, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting.  These consolidated statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary for a fair statement for the periods presented.  The year-end consolidated data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
 
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K on April 1, 2013.
 
Going Concern Considerations
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $46.0 million and recurring losses from operations. The Company also had negative working capital of approximately $5.2 million and debt with maturities in the year ended December 31, 2013 in the amount of approximately $2.8 million as of June 30, 2013.
 
The Company intends to fund operations through raising additional capital through debt financing and equity issuances, increased sales, increased collection activity on past due other receivable balances and reduced expenses, which may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital or other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2013. The Company is in negotiations with current debt holders to restructure and extend payment terms of the existing short term debt.  The Company is seeking additional funds to finance its immediate and long-term operations. The successful outcome of future financing activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
In response to these financial issues, management has taken the following actions:
 
·  
The Company is seeking to renegotiate existing debt.
·  
The Company is seeking investment capital.
·  
The Company is aggressively increasing collection activity on past due other receivable balances
 
2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial statements. Such financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company's management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
 
 
 

 


 
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions involved include the collectability of accounts receivable, accounting for stock based compensation and other stock based payments, convertible debt issuances, the valuation of the deferred tax asset, inventory, warrant liability and long-lived assets valuation (including goodwill).  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Risks and Uncertainties
 
The Company operates in a highly competitive industry that is subject to intense competition. The Company faces risks and uncertainties relating to its ability to successfully implement its business strategy. Among other things, these risks include the ability to develop and sustain revenue growth; managing and expanding operations; competition; attracting, retaining and motivating qualified personnel; maintaining and developing new strategic relationships; and the ability to anticipate and adapt to the changing markets and any changes in government regulations.
 
As a result, the Company may be subject to the risk of delays in obtaining (or failing to obtain) regulatory clearance and other uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks associated with an emerging business, including the risk of business failure.
 
The Company's pharmacies are subject to licensing and regulation by the health, sanitation, safety, building and fire agencies in the state or municipality where located. Difficulties or failures in obtaining or maintaining the required licensing and/or approvals could prevent the continued operations of such pharmacies. Management believes that the Company is operating in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
 
Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company issues options and restricted shares of common stock to employees and consultants.  Stock option and restricted share awards are granted at the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant.
 
The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” for stock compensation transactions.  This requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payments at fair value. The total applicable compensation cost is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized $426,778 and $546,920 respectively, in compensation expense which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
 
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
 
Management believes that the carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, consisting primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated their fair values at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, due to their short-term nature.
 
 
 
 



 
 
The Company measures certain financial liabilities (warrant liability) at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company follows a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
 
Level 1
Measurements are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
   
Level 2
Measurements are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly.
   
Level 3
Measurements are unobservable inputs.
 
The fair value of the warrant liability of $412,174 as on June 30, 2013 and $274,605 as of December 31, 2012, respectively, was measured using Level 3 measurements.
 
Management also believes that the June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 interest rates associated with the notes payable approximates the market interest rates for these types of debt instruments and as such, the carrying amount of the notes payable approximates their fair value.
 
Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price of an acquired entity over the net amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  The Company’s goodwill relates to its acquisition of the 49% interest in API.  The Company reviews goodwill for impairment at least annually.  The annual impairment test for goodwill is a two-step process and involves comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill.  If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired, and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test would be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss to be recorded, if any. The Company estimated the API’s fair value based on the income approach.  The Company’s conducts its’ annual impairment tests in December of each year.

In August 2013, as part of our strategic re-evaluation, the Company closed the pharmacy operations of our Riverside pharmacy.  Accordingly, as a result of this triggering event, operations of our Riverside pharmacy, the Company’s goodwill of $697,766 associated with the API pharmacies acquisition in 2006 was determined to be impaired.  As a result, the Company recorded goodwill impairment expense of $697,766 in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 consolidated statement of operations (see Note 11 Subsequent Events for further details).

Common Stock Warrant Liability
 
The Company accounts for its common stock warrants under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” which requires any financial instrument, other than an outstanding share, that, at inception, embodies an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s equity shares, or is indexed to such and obligation, and it requires or may require the issuer to settle the obligation by transferring assets, would qualify for classification as a liability. The guidance required the Company’s outstanding warrants from convertible debenture private placements in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and in the years ended December 31, 2012 to be classified as liabilities and to be fair valued at each reporting period, with the changes in fair value recognized as a change in fair value of warranty liability in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.  Specifically, the warrants issued in connection with convertible debenture private placements in during the fiscal year 2012 and 2011 and  warrants issued in connection with common stock private placements during the six months ended June 30, 2013, grant the warrant holder certain anti-dilution protection which provide exercise price adjustments in the event that any common stock or common stock equivalents are issued at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise price per share.  Upon exercise or expiration of the warrant, the fair value of the warrant at that time will be reclassified to equity from a liability.  The following table is a summary of the warrant liability activity measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs:

Forward contracts

As part of the 2013 private placement of common stock, the Company also agreed that the 38,462 shares of common stock included in the units is subject to increase and the $0.65 per share value is subject to decrease, in each case based on the level of the Company’s consolidated net revenues that are derived during our 2013 fiscal year (the “Make-Whole Adjustments”) (see Note 4 Common Stock for further details).  The Company separately valued the forward contracts using Level 3 inputs.  The fair value of the forward contracts of $330,763 was recorded as a liability and is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2013.   The following table is a summary of the warrant liability activity measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs:

 Unsecured Debt

2010 Issuances

In April 2010, we entered into a secured loan agreement with an accredited investor in a private placement. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company received a loan of $250,000 at an interest rate of 12% per annum, with interest payable in advance with the principal due in April 2011 at maturity.  In June 2011, the outstanding principal loan balance of $250,000 was converted into a 16.0% senior convertible debenture through a private placement for an aggregate principal amount of $250,000, which matured in June 2012. A consent and waiver was obtained from the majority of the Series A Preferred holders and a waiver was obtained from a majority of the Series B Preferred holders, as required in the certificate of designation. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.26 per share for a total of 198,413 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits and related distributions. In June 2012, the agreement was amended and the maturity date of the debenture was extended to June 22, 2013.  In September 2012, the investor consented to a partial anti-dilution adjustment in conversion price per share to $0.90 per share in the event of the minimum offering being achieved in a private placement of common stock and warrants.  In February 2013, the minimum offering was achieved resulting in an adjusted conversion price of $0.90 per share for a total of 277,778 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits and related distributions (see Note 4 for further details).

As part of the private placement, the investor received a warrant to purchase 238,095 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The warrant is exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $1.512, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits and related distributions.  The investor may exercise the warrant on a cashless basis if the shares of common stock underlying the warrant are not then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement.  The outstanding warrants are subject to certain anti-dilution protection clauses which provide exercise price adjustments in the event that any common stock or common stock equivalents are issued at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise price per share.  Accordingly, the fair value of the stock warrants is classified as a warrant liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2012.  As part of the June 2012 amendment, the exercise period of the warrants was extended from three years to five years.

The Company separately valued the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in convertible securities as the difference, as of the commitment date, between the effective conversion price of the convertible security and the fair value of the common stock underlying the convertible security. The embedded beneficial conversion feature was valued at $50,448 separately, and was recognized by allocating to additional paid-in capital and discount on debt.

The total gross discount on the debenture issuance was $152,483, which will be amortized on a straight line basis over the twelve (12) month term of the loan. The effective interest rate on the debenture was calculated as 79.6%. There are no financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain.

In July 2010, we completed a sale in a private placement to an accredited, related party investor affiliated with Mosaic Private Equity Fund (U.S.), L.P. (“MPE”), Mosaic Financial Services, LLC (“MFS”) and Mosaic Private Equity (III), Ltd., (“MPE III”), (collectively “Mosaic”), a related party (see Note 7 for further details), for a 10.0% convertible debenture for an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 (before deducting expenses and fees related to the private placement) due in July 2012.  A consent and waiver was obtained from the majority of the Series A and C Preferred holders and a waiver was obtained from a majority of the Series B Preferred holders, as required in the certificate of designation. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred at an initial conversion price of $1,000 per share and subject to adjustments, and each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into 695 shares of the Company’s common stock for a total of 347,500 common shares on an as converted basis.  Interest on the note is payable quarterly and is calculated based on the higher of the average stock price for the five (5) prior trading days or $1.80 per common share.  In July 2012, the Company entered into an Amendment to the debenture agreement, in which the term of the loan was modified and extended for a period of one year by mutual consent.  As consideration for the extension, the interest rate for the debenture was increased from 10.0% to 16.0%.  In September 2012, the holders of a majority of the Series A and C Preferred stock consented to a partial anti-dilution adjustment in conversion price per share to $0.90 per share in the event of the minimum offering being achieved in a private placement of common stock and warrants.  In February 2013, the minimum offering was achieved resulting in an adjusted conversion price of $0.90 per share for a total of 555,556 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits and related distributions (see Note 4 for further details).

The Company separately valued the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in convertible securities as the difference, as of the commitment date, between the effective conversion price of the convertible security and the fair value of the common stock underlying the convertible security. The embedded beneficial conversion feature was valued at $93,750 separately, and was recognized by allocating to additional paid-in capital and discount on debt. There are no financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain.

In December 2010, the Company completed a sale in a private placement to an accredited investor for a 12.5% senior convertible debenture for an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 (before deducting expenses and fees related to the private placement) with periodic redemptions of $150,000 due in December 2011 and March 2012, plus any unpaid interest. The Company has the option to pay all or part of the December 2011 periodic redemptions with shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the loan agreement.  These Equity Conditions include, among others, the Company’s compliance with honoring all conversions and redemptions, payment of all liquidated damages of the debenture, an effective registration to allow for resale of the common shares and the ability to resell such common pursuant to Rule 144.  A consent and waiver was obtained from the majority of the Series A Preferred holders and a waiver was obtained from a majority of the Series B Preferred holders as required in the certificate of designation. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.44 per share for a total of 208,334 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment.

As part of the private placement, the investor received a warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The warrant is exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance at an initial exercise price of $1.73, subject to adjustment.  The investor may exercise the warrant on a cashless basis if the shares of common stock underlying the warrant are not then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement.  The outstanding warrants are subject certain anti-dilution protection clauses which provide exercise price adjustments in the event that any common stock or common stock equivalents are issued at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise price per share.  Accordingly, the stock warrants were classified as a warrant liability.

The Company separately valued the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in convertible securities as the difference, as of the commitment date, between the amount allocated to the convertible debenture and the fair value of the common stock underlying the convertible security. The embedded beneficial conversion feature was valued at $52,014 separately, and was recognized by allocating to additional paid-in capital and discount on debt.

The total gross discount on the debenture issuance was $190,277, which will be amortized on a straight line basis over the fifteen (15) month term of the loan.  The effective interest rate on the loan was calculated as 68.4%. There are no financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain.
 
2011 Issuances

In May 2011, the existing $300,000 convertible debenture and related warrants were cancelled and exchanged for a 16.0% senior convertible debenture due December 1, 2012 in a private placement. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $57,441 which is comprised of $9,247 in cash interest at the stated rate, $37,555 in amortization of discount and $10,639 in amortization of debt issuance cost.  As a result of the transaction, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $16,923.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company completed sales through private placements to accredited investors of 16.0% senior convertible debentures for an aggregate principal amount of $1,865,384 (before deducting expenses and fees related to the private placements). The proceeds from the private placements included the cancellation of a $300,000 convertible debenture and related warrants resulting in cash gross proceeds of an aggregate of $1,565,384 from these private placements. The Company incurred an aggregate total of $222,543 in cash fees and expenses related to the private placements resulting in cash net proceeds of an aggregate of $1,342,841 from the private placements. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.26 per share for an aggregate total of 1,480,469 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment.  A consent and waiver was obtained from the majority of the Series A and C Preferred holders and a waiver was obtained from a majority of the Series B Preferred holders as required in the certificate of designation.  From September 2012 through February 2013, all of the investors in 2011 private placements consented to a partial anti-dilution adjustment in conversion price per share to $0.90 per share in the event of the minimum offering being achieved in a private placement of common stock and warrants.  In February 2013, the minimum offering was achieved resulting in an adjusted conversion price of $0.90 per share for a total of 2,072,654 common shares on an as converted basis, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits and related distributions (see Note 4 for further details).

The debenture maturity dates range from December 2012 to May 2013 with two periodic redemptions of twenty-five percent (25%) of the original principal amount, plus any unpaid interest and a final redemption of fifty percent (50%) of the original principal amount plus any unpaid interest due at maturity. The Company has the option to pay all or part of the initial twenty-five percent (25%) redemption amount due with shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain Equity Conditions, as defined in the loan agreement.  These Equity Conditions include, among others, the Company’s compliance with honoring all conversions and redemptions, payment of all liquidated damages of the debenture, an effective registration to allow for resale of the common shares and the ability to resell such common pursuant to Rule 144.

In June and July 2012, six debenture holders entered into amendment agreements to extend the periodic redemption dates and maturity dates for an aggregate of $665,384 in debentures by one year.  The Company evaluated the modifications by computing the discounted cash flows of the existing loan and comparing them to the discounted cash flows of the changed loan.  If the difference in the present value between the existing loan and the changed loan was 10% or greater, then the loan is substantially different which requires extinguishment accounting treatment. As a result of the modification of the debenture terms, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $75,585 related to the June and July 2012 amendments.

In September 2012, a holder of three debentures entered into an amendment agreement to extend the periodic redemption dates and maturity dates of an aggregate total of $700,000 in debentures. The extended periodic redemptions of $175,000 are due in June 2013 and September 2013 with $350,000 plus any accrued interest is due at maturity on December 1, 2013. As a result of the modification of the debenture terms, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $14,620.

Due to our current financial condition, we did not make the periodic redemption payments of $125,000 due on June 1, 2012 and September 1, 2012 and the final payment due of $250,000 on or before December 1, 2012 to three convertible debenture holders that did not extend.  Upon default, amounts owed become immediately payable to the debenture holder upon issuance of a notice of default.  All of the debenture holders have issued a notice of default relating to our failure to make the periodic redemption payments on June 1, 2012 or September 1, 2012 and the final payment of $250,000 due on December 1, 2012 under the debenture agreement.  Amounts are listed as current at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

The Company recorded the transactions by first allocating the fair value of the warrants of $537,154 to warrant liability and discount on debt (see Note 5 Stock Warrants for further details). The Company then separately valued the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in convertible securities as the difference, as of the commitment date, between the amount allocated to the convertible debenture and the fair value of the common stock underlying the convertible security. The embedded beneficial conversion feature was valued at $287,429 separately, and was recognized by allocating to additional paid-in capital and discount on debt.

The total gross discount on the debenture issuance was $824,584, which will be amortized on a straight line basis over the respective term of the debentures.  The weighted average effective interest rate was calculated as 55.0%. There are no financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain.

As a result of the June, July and September modifications, the Company recorded the transactions by first allocating the fair value of the warrants of $396,186 to warrant liability and discount on debt (see Note 5 Stock Warrants for further details). The Company then separately determined if an embedded beneficial conversion feature was present by comparing the difference, as of the commitment date, between the amount allocated to the convertible debenture and the fair value of the common stock underlying the convertible security which did not result in a beneficial conversion feature.  The gross discount on the debentures of $396,186 will be amortized over the respective term of the debentures.  The new weighted average effective interest rate was calculated as 47.3%. There are no financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain.

Twelve (12) consecutive monthly installments of $10,000 on or before the 15th of each month commencing in July 2012 through June 2013.

(b)   
Remaining balance, including all interest due, payable on or before July 15, 2013.
 
 As of June 30, 2013, the outstanding principal balance on the loan was $242,872. Due to our current financial condition, we did not make the monthly installment payments of $10,000 due on September 15, 2012 through March June 15, 2013 and were unable to make the $213,091 payment due to TPG which includes principal and interest on or before July 15, 2013.  TPG has not issued a notice of default relating to our failure to make the monthly installment payments of $10,000 due required under the Purchase Agreement.

Preferred Stock Private Placements
 
In June 2009, in a private placement pursuant to the Purchase Agreement dated February 9, 2009, with Mosaic Private Equity Fund (U.S.), L.P. (“MPE”), Mosaic Financial Services, LLC (“MFS”) and Mosaic Private Equity (III), Ltd., (“MPE III”), (collectively “Mosaic”), a related party (see Note 7 for further details), the Company agreed to sell 1,330 shares of its Series A Preferred and common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,083,334 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.3 million, of which $750,000 was paid by the cancellation of secured indebtedness of the Company owed to MFS, with the remaining $580,000 to be paid in cash.
 
In February and March 2013, the Company issued a total of 60 shares of Series A Preferred at $1,000 per share for a total of $60,000 to Mosaic under the existing 2009 Securities Purchase agreement. The Company has issued a total of 559 shares of Series A Preferred for $558,500 under the 2009 Securities Purchase agreement. The net proceeds of the sales were used for general working capital purposes.  Each share of Series A Preferred was initially convertible into 695 shares of common stock, but was subsequently adjusted in February 2013 to 900 shares of common stock.   As of June 30, 2013, no shares of Series A Preferred have been converted into common stock.

In May 2010, we filed a Certificate of Designation to designate 813 shares of the Company’s preferred stock in Series C Preferred. The rights of the Series C Preferred are identical to Series A Preferred and each share of Series C Preferred was initially convertible into 556 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Subsequently, the Company issued 813 shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred at a price of $1,000 per share to an existing vendor.
 
In February 2013, each share of Series A, B and C Preferred became convertible into 900 shares of the Company’s common stock as a result of the agreed upon partial ratchet anti-dilution adjustment relating to the January 2013 private placement of common stock.

The table below summarizes the Company’s outstanding convertible preferred stock as June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

In January 2013, we initiated a securities offering through a private placement for a minimum of 10 units of securities for a minimum of $250,000 and a maximum of 80 units for a maximum of $2,000,000 (subject to increase as much as 100 units for $2,500,000 to cover  over-allotments, if any).  Each unit consists of (a) 38,462 shares of common stock, valued at $0.65 for $25,000 and (b) 38,462 warrants with an initial exercise price of $0.90 per share.    If the maximum offering of 80 units is sold, Assured would have issued an aggregate of 3,076,960 shares of common stock and 3,076,960 warrants in such units.  The Company shall have paid the placement agent cash commissions equal to 10% of the gross proceeds received by the Company in this offering and three year warrants to purchase that number of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the aggregate number of shares of common stock and warrant shares included in the units sold in the offering (615,392 shares if all 80 units are sold and 769,240 shares if the over-allotment is exercised in full).   The outstanding common stock related to the private placement is subject certain anti-dilution protection clauses which provide exercise price adjustments in the event that any common stock or common stock equivalents are issued at an effective price per share that is less than the exercise price per share.  The Company also agreed that the 38,462 shares of common stock and the 38,462 warrants included in the units are subject to increase, and the $0.65 per share value and the $0.90 warrant exercise prices are subject to decrease, in each case based on the level of the Company’s consolidated net revenues that are derived during our 2013 fiscal year (the “Make-Whole Adjustments”).  Such Make-Whole Adjustments are as follows:

Each warrant has a term of three years and may be exercised at an initial exercise price of $0.90 per warrant share; which exercise price is, in addition to the potential Make-Whole Adjustment, subject to certain weighted average and other anti-dilution adjustments as provided in the form of warrant.  The warrants may only be exercised for cash.  However, as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, after a date which shall be 180 days following the Final Closing Date, there will be a cashless exercise option available to the warrant holders at any time during which a registration statement providing for the resale of the warrant shares is not effective, unless the warrant shares may then be freely tradable without limitation pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act.

A consent and waiver was obtained from the majority of the Series A and C preferred holders and a waiver was obtained from a majority of the Series B preferred holders as required in the certificate of designation and a waiver was obtained from all convertible debenture holders that were required.  As part of the waiver, the Series A, B, and C preferred holders and 100 percent of the applicable convertible debenture holders agreed to waive anti-dilution adjustments which the consenting holder may be entitled under their respective agreements and accept a partial ratchet anti-dilution adjustment with a decrease in the conversion price of $0.90 per share of the Company securities for this private placement if the minimum unit threshold is met.

From February 2013 to the closing of the private placement in May 2013, the Company completed sales in a private placement to accredited investors for thirty-four and four tenths (34.4) common stock units for a total of 1,323,093 shares of common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $860,000 (before deducting expenses and fees related to the private placement).  The Company paid cash fees of $32,800 to the placement agent and issued 50,462 warrants with an exercise price of $0.90 and 50,462 warrants with an exercise price of $0.65 to the placement agent per the agreement.  In addition, the Company paid $13,010 in legal and the closing costs on this transaction.  The net proceeds of the private placement were used to pay down our outstanding balance with our primary wholesaler and general working capital purposes.  As part of the private placement, the investors also received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,323,093 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of  $0.90 per share.

Stock Warrants
 
In connection with the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred to Mosaic in 2009, the Company also issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

Expected Stock Volatility
 
Volatility is a measure of the tendency of investment returns to vary around a long-term average rate.  Historical volatility is an appropriate starting point for setting this assumption. Companies should also consider how future experience may differ from the past. This may require using other factors to adjust historical volatility, such as implied volatility, peer-group volatility and the range and mean-reversion of volatility estimates over various historical periods. The peer-group utilized consisted of nine companies in 2011, in the same or similar industries as the Company. In addition, if a best estimate cannot be made, management should use the mid-point in the range of reasonable estimates for volatility. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock in conjunction with the Company’s issuance of financing instruments and volatility is calculated utilizing the historical and estimated future volatility of the Company and its peer-group.

Risk-Free Rate of Return
 
The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the estimated life of the option/warrant.
 
Expected Dividends
 
The Company has never paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, it uses an expected dividend yield of zero.
 
Expected Term
 
The Company uses the related exercise period of the warrant or option as the expected term.

Stock Options
 
In May 2012, we adopted the Assured Pharmacy, Inc. 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2012 Incentive Plan”). The 2012 Incentive Plan is intended to provide incentives that will attract and retain the best available directors, employees and appropriate third parties who can provide us with valuable services.  These purposes may be achieved through the grant of non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, performance stock awards and phantom stock awards.
 
The 2012 Incentive Plan permits the grant of awards that may deliver up to an aggregate of 1,667,667 shares of common stock, further subject to limits on the number of shares that may be delivered pursuant to incentive stock options, on the shares that may be delivered on the awards to any individual in a single year and on the number of shares that may be delivered on certain awards that are performance-based awards, within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.  Awards may vest, in time, upon the occurrence of one or more events or by the satisfaction of performance criteria, or any combination. To the extent that awards are performance based, they may be based on one or more criteria, including (without limitation) earnings, cash flow, revenues, operating income, capital reissues, or other quantifiable company, customer satisfaction or market data, or any combination. In addition to common stock, awards may also be made in similar securities whose value is derived from our common stock.
 
Awards with respect to which grant, vesting, exercisability or payment depend on the achievement of performance goals and awards that are options or stock appreciation rights granted to officers and employees will be intended to satisfy the requirements for “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.  The 2012 Incentive Plan will be administered by the board of directors.
 
In May 2012, the Company awarded 525,000 options to purchase common stock under the 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan.  The following table summarizes the stock options outstanding and the number of shares of common stock subject to exercise as of June 30, 2013 and the changes therein during the six months then ended:

7.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters
 
Providing pharmacy services entails an inherent risk of medical and professional malpractice liability. The Company may be named as a defendant in such lawsuits and become subject to the attendant risk of substantial damage awards. The Company believes it possesses adequate professional and medical malpractice liability insurance coverage. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be sued, that any such lawsuit will not exceed our insurance coverage, or that it will be able to maintain such coverage at acceptable costs and on favorable terms.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination or breach of contract actions incidental to the normal operations of the business. In the opinion of management, the Company is not currently involved in any litigation which it believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

On March 18, 2011, a lawsuit was filed by Tim Chandler, Jodi Marshall, Christie Garner, the Estate of Thomas Pike, Jr., and Angie Hernandez in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Multnomah County against Payette Clinics, P.C., Scott Pecora, Kelly Bell, Penny Steers and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Assured Pharmacies Northwest, Inc. and Assured Pharmacy Gresham, Inc. The lawsuit arises from allegations that nurse practitioners at Payette Clinics, P.C. prescribed the five plaintiffs controlled substances in amounts that were excessive under the appropriate medical standard of care.  Only one of the plaintiffs, Tim Chandler, brought claims against our subsidiaries.  Mr. Chandler’s claims against our subsidiaries were for negligence on the basis of allegations that our subsidiaries knew or had reason to know that the prescriptions fell below the standard of care applicable to the prescription of such controlled substances but nonetheless filled the prescriptions.  The plaintiffs, as a whole, submitted a prayer for $7,500,000 in damages.  Mr. Chandler only seeks “an amount to be proven at trial” for noneconomic damages and unnecessary expenses.  Management believes that the allegations against our subsidiaries are without merit and plans to defend this claim.  We have $2,000,000 in insurance coverage for claims relating to pharmacy negligence.  This lawsuit has been stayed a result of a co-defendant in this lawsuit (Payette Clinics, P.C.) having filed for bankruptcy.  The bankruptcy has since been discharged and the automatic stay lifted.  The state court stay has also been lifted and the case is now proceeding.  The Company has denied any liability and is vigorously defending this action.

On May 9, 2013, a lawsuit was filed by Coventry Enterprises, LLC in the United States District Court Southern District of York.  The lawsuit arises from allegations that Assured Pharmacy breached its obligations under the $200,000 16% Senior Convertible Debenture due December 1, 2013 with Coventry Enterprises, LLC.  Due to the Company’s financial condition, we have been unable to repay the $200,000 in principal and accrued interest due under the agreement.  Management will continue to try to renegotiate the terms of the agreement.

10.     INCOME TAXES
 
Due to losses incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, there is no current provision for income taxes.
 
The utilization of some or all of the Company’s net operating losses may be restricted in the future by a significant change in ownership as defined under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In addition, utilization of the Company’s California net operating losses for the years prior to 2008 may only be carried forward ten (10) years under State law. The Company’s estimate of the potential outcome of any uncertain tax issue is subject to management’s assessment of relevant risks, facts, and circumstances existing at that time, pursuant to ASC 740. ASC 740 requires a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. At January 1, 2007, (adoption date), and at June 30, 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits.
 
The federal statute of limitations remains open for tax years 2009 through 2012. State jurisdictions generally have statutes of limitations ranging from three to five years. The Company is no longer subject to state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.
 
Any interest and penalties associated with tax positions taken by the Company would be recorded as a component of other expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.  For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, there were no amounts recorded for interest and penalties.
 
11.     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
 
The Company has performed a review of events subsequent to the financial condition date through August 14, 2013, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
 
In July 2013, we entered into an Amendment To Promissory Note Agreement with H.D. Smith Wholes Drug Co. to extend the maturity date of our Promissory Note Agreement dated February 1, 2013 by two years from February 1, 2014 to February 1, 2016.  The Company shall be required to make monthly payments of $42,000 per month for each of the twenty three months during the extension period.
 
In August 2013, we entered into a $200,000 Promissory Note with Pinewood Trading Fund, L.P., a related party.  The unpaid principal balance shall bear interest at a rate equal to 12.0% per annum.  The principal and accrued but unpaid interest is due on September 5, 2013.
 
Our current financial condition and inability to secure additional funding or improve our liquidity position has caused management to reevaluate its strategic plan.  In an attempt to avoid ceasing operations, management has developed and is implementing a plan to scale back operations.  We cannot continue to support the working capital needs of four pharmacies.  As a result, management has decided to close two pharmacies in order to reduce overall fixed pharmacy costs by 50% and concentrate our limited working capital to support the operations of the two remaining pharmacies with the best prospects.   Management considered several factors in determining which two pharmacies to close, including historical financial performance, regulatory costs, current sales prospects, geographic and physical location and strength of existing physician relationships.  After consideration of these factors, management closed our Gresham and Riverside pharmacies on August 5, 2013 and August 8, 2013, respectively.

Business Overview
 
Since May 2003, we have been engaged in the business of establishing and operating pharmacies that specialize in dispensing highly regulated pain medication for chronic pain management.  Because our focus is on dispensing medication, we typically will not keep in inventory non-prescription drugs, or health and beauty related products, such as walking canes, bandages and shampoo. We primarily derive our revenue from the sale of prescription medications. The majority of our business is derived from repeat business from our customers. Our pharmacies maintain a variety of different drug classes, known as Schedule II, Schedule III, and Schedule IV drugs, which vary in degrees of addictiveness. Schedule II drugs are considered narcotics by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”), are the most addictive; hence, they are highly regulated by the DEA and are required to be segregated and secured in a separate cabinet. Schedule III and Schedule IV drugs are less addictive and less regulated. Because our business model focuses on servicing chronic pain patients, we carry in inventory a larger amount of Schedule II drugs than most other pharmacies. We were organized as a Nevada corporation on October 22, 1999, under the name Surforama.com, Inc. and previously operated under the name eRXSYS, Inc.  We changed our name to Assured Pharmacy, Inc. in October 2005.
 
As of June 30, 2013, we had four operating pharmacies, each of which are wholly owned through subsidiaries. As discussed below, we closed our Gresham and Riverside pharmacies on August 5, 2013 and August 8, 2013, respectively. The opening date and locations of our four pharmacies operating as of June 30, 2013 are as follows:

Recent Developments

As previously reported, management was seeking to secure up to $2.5 million in additional funding through equity financing arrangements in order to finance our operations, implement our strategic plan and service our existing debt.  While we were able to secure an aggregate of $860,000 in financing during the six months ended June 30, 2013, we have not been able to secure a sufficient amount of financing to be able to continue to maintain our current level of operations, implement our strategic plan and service our existing debt.  Our current financial condition has impaired our ability to secure trade credit terms with our primary drug wholesaler, which has severely restricted our ability to acquire additional inventory.  Our current cash position and inability to acquire the inventory required for our pharmacies to operate has resulted in decreased sales.

Our current financial condition and inability to secure additional funding or significantly improve our liquidity position has caused  management to reevaluate its strategic plan.  In an attempt to avoid ceasing operations, management has developed and is implementing a plan to scale back operations.  We cannot continue to support the working capital needs of four pharmacies.  As a result, management has decided to close two pharmacies in order to reduce overall fixed pharmacy costs by 50% and concentrate our limited working capital to support the operations of the two remaining pharmacies we believe have the best prospects.   Management considered several factors in determining which two pharmacies to close, including historical financial performance, regulatory costs, current sales prospects, geographic and physical location and strength of existing physician relationships.  After consideration of these factors, management closed our Gresham and Riverside pharmacies on August 5, 2013 and August 8, 2013, respectively.
 
Management believes that our current corporate infrastructure can efficiently support up to total of twelve operating pharmacies.  Corporate infrastructure includes executive management, centralized support services, accounting, finance, information systems, human resources, payroll and compliance to support each pharmacy's operations.  In light of these actions to scale back our operations, the costs to support our existing corporate infrastructure remain significant when allocated over the operations of two remaining pharmacies.  In order to align the costs of our current corporate infrastructure with our scaled back operations, management has implemented cost reduction initiatives including staffing reductions, deferral of senior management compensation by approximately fifty percent and reduced operating costs at our two remaining pharmacies.
 
Management is continuing to pursue additional financing to implement our strategic plan, which includes opening additional pharmacies and is described more fully below.  There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. 

We are attempting to extend the maturity date of all outstanding debt securities due in the years 2012 and 2013, but can provide no assurance that the holders of such securities will agree to extend the maturity date on these securities on acceptable terms.  We are also discussing the possibility of these debt holders converting the securities into equity.  If our debt holders choose not to convert certain of these securities into equity, we will need to repay such debt, or reach an agreement with the debt holders to extend the terms thereof.  If we are forced to repay the debt, this need for funds would have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial condition and prospects, would threaten our ability to operate as a going concern and may force us to seek bankruptcy protection.

Strategic Plan
 
Our plan is to develop a national footprint as a premier provider of pharmacy services to physicians and patients primarily in the treatment of chronic pain.  Our business model provides pharmacy services which are typically utilized by physicians for the risk management benefits of our model in this increasingly regulated industry due to prescription drug abuse and diversion.  Chronic pain patients typically utilize our services for the convenience, safety and specialization benefits.
 
We have developed and refined what we believe is a unique pharmacy service model for chronic pain patients that is capable of being scaled into a national chain.  We currently have two operating pharmacies, each of which is wholly owned through a subsidiary, and our plan, to the extent we are able to secure additional financing, is to develop three (3) additional pharmacies per year up to a total of twelve operating pharmacies.  The implementation of this plan is dependent on us being able to secure additional financing through equity and debt financing arrangements, increasing sales and lowering operating expenses, but there can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.
 
Management believes that our current corporate infrastructure can efficiently support our existing pharmacies and develop three additional new pharmacies per year up to total of twelve operating pharmacies.  As a result, we believe that the implementation of our plan to open up to ten additional pharmacies will not require material additional corporate infrastructure.  Further, we expect that the opening of each new pharmacy will have a positive impact on our consolidated operating results within six months from opening of the new pharmacy, but there can be no assurance that such positive results will occur.

The success of future pharmacy locations is highly dependent on the location of that particular pharmacy.  Future pharmacy locations, when established, will be selected based on criteria which include: i) the proximity to physician and medical facilities; ii) convenience of the particular location; iii) size and growth rate of the surrounding metropolitan area; iv) state and local tax rates; v) competitive business environment and vi) access to qualified personnel and the associated cost.  Management believes that the success of new pharmacies will be positively impacted by its research process and diligence in selecting new locations.
 
The foundation for our plan to increase sales at our existing two pharmacies is based on increasing our outreach program to physicians, more effectively communicating to them the risk management and service benefits that our business model provides and increasing our customer retention rate.  Presently, our customer retention rates are adversely impacted by our inability to purchase inventory necessary to fill every prescription we receive.  We believe that our customer retention rates can be strengthened by increasing our inventory levels and expanding our purchasing capacity with existing and new drug suppliers. Since the majority of our pharmacies’ operating expenses are fixed expenses, we expect any increase in revenue to have a positive impact or our consolidated operating results.  Management believes that our the infrastructure of our existing pharmacies can support increase prescription production volume by as much as an additional 75% - 100% without incurring any significant additional operating expenses, but there can be no assurances in this regard.
 
The implementation of the foregoing plan to increase sales at our existing pharmacies and open additional pharmacies is entirely dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing and improve our liquidity position.  If we are not able to secure additional financing, the implementation of our business plan will be further delayed and our ability to expand and develop additional pharmacies will be impaired.  We are currently seeking a minimum of $1.7 million in additional funding through equity financing arrangements in addition to the debt restructuring described below, but there can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.  Management has registered a class of our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and believes that filing periodic public reports with the SEC will enhance our ability to secure financing and under acceptable terms.
 
Our business is highly leveraged and the successful implementation of the foregoing plan necessitates that we reach an agreement with our existing debt holders to extend the maturity date of debt securities which came due in 2012.  As of June 30, 2013, we had $548,580 in debt securities which were due in the year 2012, which included $500,000 in principal amount of unsecured convertible debentures.    We are attempting to extend the maturity date of all outstanding debt securities due in the years 2012 and 2013, but can provide no assurance that the holders of such securities will agree to extend the maturity date on these securities on acceptable terms.  We are also discussing the possibility of these debt holders converting the securities into equity.  If our debt holders choose not to convert certain of these securities into equity, we will need to repay such debt, or reach an agreement with the debt holders to extend the terms thereof.  If we are forced to repay the debt, this need for funds would have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial condition and prospects, would threaten our ability to operate as a going concern and may force us to seek bankruptcy protection.

We currently have approximately $1.0 million in gross receivables due from various workers’ compensation carriers in the State of California. These receivables are primarily related to worker’s compensation claims from insurance carriers for prescription medications dispensed to injured workers in the State of California by our discontinued pharmacies in Santa Ana and Riverside, California.  The delay in payment typically arises due to monetary disputes between the claimant and the employer and/or the employer’s insurance carrier. The settlement period for such dispute cases can range from one year to ten years.  Management estimates the net realizable value of the other receivables to be approximately $184,000.  On April 1, 2010, we discontinued dispensing medication to California worker’s compensation customers whose claims could not be authorized and billed electronically.  This change was due to lower profit margins and cash flow constraints that are associated with the manual authorization and billing process.  We have engaged a collection firm that specializes in the collection of these type of receivables to aggressively collect these past due receivables.   We expect that any recovery of these outstanding receivables will improve our overall operating cash flow, but we can make no assurances in this regard.

Sales
 
Our total sales reported for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,287,936, a 37.6% decrease from $3,664,082 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was generated primarily from the sale of prescription drugs through our pharmacy operations and to a much lesser extent fees from management services provided.  Due to the closure of two of our four pharmacies subsequent to the reporting period, we expect lower total sales from pharmacy operations until such time, if at all, that we are able to secure additional financing to implement our business plan.
 
Our total sales from pharmacy operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,284,139, a 37.5 % decrease from $3,653,681 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Sales per prescription dispensed was approximately $96 per prescription for the three months ended June 30, 2013, a 17.2% decrease from approximately $116 per prescription for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease in sales per prescription dispensed is primarily attributable to a shift in prescription mix from higher priced brand medications to lower priced generic medications.  Sales from pharmacy operations were also unfavorably impacted by our inability to acquire inventory to adequately meet our customer demands.  
 
The number of prescriptions dispensed by our pharmacies was 23,810 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 31,615 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  Management attributes the decrease in prescription volumes to an decrease in the number of patients serviced because we have lost sales opportunities primarily due to our inability to acquire inventory to adequately meet customer demand.

Our total sales from management services for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $3,797, a decrease from $10,401 in sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Cost of Sales
 
The total cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,764,107, a 39.4% decrease from $2,911,011 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The cost of sales consists primarily of the direct cost of prescription drugs. The decrease in cost of sales is primarily attributable to decreased sales in the reporting period.
 
Gross Profit
 
Our total gross profit decreased to $523,829 or approximately 22.9% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. This is an decrease from a gross profit of $753,071, or approximately 20.6% of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  Our gross profit from pharmacy revenues decreased to $520,032 or approximately 22.8% of pharmacy revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2013.  This is a decrease from a gross profit of $742,670 or approximately 20.3% of pharmacy revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease in gross profit is primarily attributable to a decrease in sales primarily due to our inability to acquire inventory to adequately meet our customer demand during the reporting period.  
 
The increase in the gross profit percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the prior fiscal three months is attributable to an increase in sales of generic drugs as a percentage of total prescription revenue which have lower costs and higher gross profit margins and improved drug pricing as a result of our restructuring our purchasing account with our primary wholesaler in February 2013. The restructuring allows us to take advantage of additional discounts available.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $2,279,059, a 35.7% increase from $1,679,953 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 consisted of salaries and related expenses of $719,183, selling, general and administrative expenses of $862,110 and goodwill impairment of $697,766.  Our operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of salaries and related expenses of $760,259 and selling, general and administrative expenses of $919,694.  The goodwill impairment related to the closure of our Riverside pharmacy subsequent to the reporting period.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $57,584 in the three months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the previous fiscal three months.  The significant components of selling, general and administrative expenses are as follows:

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to a decrease in stock based compensation and to a lesser extent,  vendor late fees, travel, delivery expenses, and other general and administrative expenses which were partially offset by an increase in professional fees, recovery of other receivables doubtful accounts, bad debt expense and facility related expenses.  The increase in professional fees is primarily related to securing additional financing and expenses associated with being a public company. The decrease in delivery expenses are primarily due to a decrease in the number of patients serviced by our operating pharmacies, our pharmacies provided services to a total of 11,141 patients in the three months ending June 30, 2013, a 11.0% decrease when compared to the 12,521 patients serviced in the previous fiscal three months.  The decrease in vendor late fees is primarily due to the February 2013 account restructuring with our primary wholesaler.
 
Other Income and Expense
 
Total other expenses and income for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $92,292, a $209,890 decrease from $302,182 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  The significant components of other income and expenses are as follows:

The decrease in other expenses was primarily attributable to an increase of $186,309 in the change in fair value of warrant liability and to a lesser extent a decrease of $58,999 in interest expense and an increase of $35,418 in change in fair value of forward contracts in the three months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the previous fiscal three months ended.

The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a decrease in amortization of debt discount which was partially offset by an increase in interest expense at the stated rate due to an increase in the average debt outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012.   The table below summarizes the components of interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Our total sales from pharmacy operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5,162,049, a 29.1 % decrease from $7,282,636 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Sales per prescription dispensed were approximately $104 per prescription for the six months ended June 30, 2013, a 11.9% decrease from approximately $118 per prescription for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease in sales per prescription dispensed is primarily attributable to a shift in prescription mix from higher priced brand medications to lower priced generic medications.  Sales from pharmacy operations were also unfavorable impacted by our inability to acquire inventory to adequately meet our customer demands.  
 
The number of prescriptions dispensed by our pharmacies was 49,510 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 61,567 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Management attributes the decrease in prescription volumes to a decrease in the number of patients serviced and a decrease in the number of prescriptions filled per patient, which was because we have lost sales opportunities primarily due to our inability to acquire inventory to adequately meet our customer demands.  
 
The number of patients serviced by our pharmacies was 22,625 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to 23,356 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The increase in the gross profit percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the prior fiscal three months is attributable to an increase in sales of generic drugs as a percentage of total prescription revenue which have lower costs and higher gross profit margins and improved drug pricing as a result of our restructuring our purchasing account with our primary wholesaler in February 2013.

The increase in professional fees is primarily related to securing additional financing and expenses associated with being a public company. The decrease in vendor late fees is primarily due to the February 2013 account restructuring with our primary wholesaler.

The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a decrease in amortization of debt discount which was partially offset by an increase in interest expense at the stated rate due to an increase in the average debt outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.   The table below summarizes the components of interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012:

Our net loss per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.56, compared to a net loss per common share of $0.54 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  The increase to our net loss per common share was primarily attributable to a $854,084 increase in our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 which was partially offset by an increase in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding to 5,361,577 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, from 3,966,112 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.
 
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2013, we had a cash balance of $9,321, a decrease from a balance of $21,298 at December 31, 2012.  At June 30, 2013, we had a working capital deficit of $5,226,472, a decrease of $1,085,649 from a working capital deficit of $6,312,121 as of December 31, 2012.  The improvement in our working capital deficit was primarily due to a decrease in current liabilities primarily attributable to current decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses which was partially offset by a decrease in current assets.  The decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses was primarily due to the restructuring of our trade account with our primary drug wholesaler.
 
Our operations have been historically funded primarily through the sale of both equity and debt securities and cash made available under revolving credit facilities.  In order for us to finance operations, continue our growth plan and service our existing debt, additional funding will be required from external sources.  Our plan is to attempt to fund operations through increased sales, decreased operating expenses, increased collection activity on other receivables and debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital, or other cash requirements for the next twelve months.  However, there can be no assurance that the additional financing necessary to finance our operations for the next twelve months will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.  In August 2013, we entered into a $200,000 Promissory Note with Pinewood Trading Fund, L.P.,  a related party.
 
As of June 30, 2013, $1,091,001 of our debt obligations are past due and another $1,697,739 is coming due by December 31, 2013.  If our debt holders choose not to convert certain of these securities into equity or seek to enforce these obligations against us, we will need to repay such debt, or reach an agreement with the debt holders to extend the terms thereof.  If we are forced to repay the debt, this need for funds would have a material adverse impact on our business operations, financial condition and prospects, including our ability to operate as a going concern.  If we are forced to repay the debt, our current and forecasted levels of cash flows and available cash on hand will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the remainder of 2013. Accordingly, we will be required to obtain additional financing in order to repay the debt, cover operating losses and working capital needs.  We cannot provide any assurances of the availability of future financing or the terms on which it might be available. In the absence of such financing, we may be forced to further scale back or cease operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures.   In the event that we are not successful in securing any additional financing or extending the maturity date of those debt securities which come due in 2013, we expect that our current resources will not enable us to continue operations for the remainder of fiscal 2013.

1)  
In February 2013, we received a one year loan of $3,828,527 with an interest rate $6.25% per annum, with interest payable monthly. Monthly payment requirements are $27,000 per month for the first four consecutive months, followed by four consecutive monthly payments of $37,000, followed by twenty-seven consecutive monthly payments of $42,000, with remaining principal and interest due February 1, 2016.
 
2)  
As of June 30, 2013, revolving credit facilities consisted of an outstanding balance of $488,000 on a line of credit we entered into with Brockington Securities, Inc., a company under the control of our Chief Executive Officer.
 
3)  
As of June 30, 2013, other notes and debt consisted of the outstanding principal balance of $242,872 due to TPG in connection with our acquisition of their ownership interest in API.  We did not make either the monthly installment payments of $10,000 from September 15, 2012 through June 15, 2013, which equaled an aggregate total of $100,000, or the $213,091 payment due to TPG on July 15, 2013, which includes principal and interest due under the note.  We are discussing the possibility of TPG converting the outstanding balance due under the note into equity, but can provide no assurance that TPG will choose to convert its note into equity.  In order to secure our obligations under the Purchase Agreement, TPG holds a security interest in the shares of API capital stock acquired by us under the Purchase Agreement.  As a result of this transaction, API also became our wholly owned subsidiary.  TPG could declare us in default and seek to seize the shares of API capital stock acquired by us under the Purchase Agreement, which would result in API no longer being  a wholly owned subsidiary.  If we were forced to pay this debt, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.  TPG has not issued a notice of default relating to our failure to make payments as required under the Purchase Agreement.
 
   4)  Our unamortized debt discount of $200,263 at June 30, 2013.
 
Outstanding Trade Balance.  At June 30, 2013, we did not have an outstanding trade balance of with our primary wholesaler due to conversion of the vendor payable into a secured note in February 2013.
 
Capital Expenditures.  At June 30, 2013, we had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Cash used in investing activities was $47,649 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $14,451 in the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 consisted entirely of purchases of property and equipment.
 
Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $871,870. Over the last several years, our operations have been funded primarily through the sale of debt and equity securities and advances from revolving credit facilities made available to us.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013 we received net proceeds from the issuances of common stock of $814,190, net proceeds of $60,000 from the issuance of Series A preferred stock and net proceeds of $41,000 from shareholder revolving note, which was partially offset by principal repayments of $43,320 on notes payable.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of June 30, 2013, we do not have any off-balance sheet debt nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have material current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in the financial conditions, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenue or expenses.
 
Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $46.0 million, recurring losses from operations and negative cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of approximately $836,198. We also had negative working capital of approximately $5.2 million and debt with maturities within the year 2013 in the amount of approximately $2.8 million as of June 30, 2013.
 
We intend to fund operations through raising additional capital through debt financing and equity issuances, increased sales, improved collection of past due other receivables accounts which may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital or other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2013. We are also in negotiations with current debt holders to restructure and extend payment terms of the existing short term debt.  We are actively seeking additional funds to finance its immediate and long-term operations. The successful outcome of future financing activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, we will have sufficient funds to execute our intended business plan or generate positive operating results. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
In response to these financial issues, management has taken the following actions:
 
·
          We are seeking to renegotiate existing debt.
·
          We are seeking investment capital.
·
          We are aggressively increasing collection activity on past due other receivable balances.
 
Supply and distribution agreement
 
We do not have any written supply agreements with any of our drug suppliers and all transactions are handled on a purchase order basis. We purchased approximately 87% of our inventory of prescription drugs from one wholesale drug supplier (H.D. Smith Wholesale Drug Co.) during the six months ended June 30, 2013. Management believes that the wholesale pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical distribution industry is highly competitive because of the consolidation of the pharmacy industry and the practice of certain large pharmacy chains to purchase directly from product manufacturers. Although management believes we could obtain the majority of our inventory through other distributors at competitive prices and upon competitive payment terms if our relationship with our primary wholesale drug supplier was terminated, the termination of our relationship would be likely to adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operation.

Litigation
 
From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination or breach of contract actions incidental to the normal operations of the business. In the opinion of management, the Company is not currently involved in any litigation which it believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

On March 18, 2011, a lawsuit was filed by Tim Chandler, Jodi Marshall, Christie Garner, the Estate of Thomas Pike, Jr., and Angie Hernandez in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Multnomah County against Payette Clinics, P.C., Scott Pecora, Kelly Bell, Penny Steers and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Assured Pharmacies Northwest, Inc. and Assured Pharmacy Gresham, Inc. The lawsuit arises from allegations that nurse practitioners at Payette Clinics, P.C. prescribed the five plaintiffs controlled substances in amounts that were excessive under the appropriate medical standard of care.  Only one of the plaintiffs, Tim Chandler, brought claims against our subsidiaries.  Mr. Chandler’s claims against our subsidiaries were for negligence on the basis of allegations that our subsidiaries knew or had reason to know that the prescriptions fell below the standard of care applicable to the prescription of such controlled substances but nonetheless filled the prescriptions.  The plaintiffs, as a whole, submitted a prayer for $7,500,000 in damages.  Mr. Chandler only seeks “an amount to be proven at trial” for noneconomic damages and unnecessary expenses.  Management believes that the allegations against our subsidiaries are without merit and plans to defend this claim.  We have $2,000,000 in insurance coverage for claims relating to pharmacy negligence.  This lawsuit has been stayed a result of a co-defendant in this lawsuit (Payette Clinics, P.C.) having filed for bankruptcy.  The bankruptcy has since been discharged and the automatic stay lifted.  The state court stay has also been lifted and the case is now proceeding.  The Company has denied any liability and is vigorously defending this action.

On May 9, 2013, as lawsuit was filed by Coventry Enterprises, LLC in the United States District Court Southern District of York.  The lawsuit arises from allegations that Assured Pharmacy breached its obligations under the $200,000 16% Senior Convertible Debenture due December 1, 2013 with Coventry Enterprises, LLC.  Due to the Company’s financial condition, we have been unable to repay the $200,000 in principal and accrued interest due under the agreement.  Management is attempting  to renegotiate the terms of the agreement.

Inflation and Seasonality
 
Inflation has not materially affected us during the past fiscal year.  We do not believe that our business is seasonal in nature, but historically we have seen increased sales in the fourth quarter which management attributes to patient insurance deductibles that expire on December 31st of each year.
 
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s debt obligations have fixed interest rates.
 
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.  Based on that evaluation, the company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during its last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect its internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims, lawsuits, disputes with third parties, actions involving allegations of discrimination or breach of contract actions incidental to the normal operations of the business. In the opinion of management, the Company is not currently involved in any litigation which it believes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

We have disclosed under the heading “Legal Proceedings” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 certain proceedings which may materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. You should carefully consider the disclosures set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and the other information set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Other than as updated below, there are no material changes to the legal proceedings as described in our Annual Report.

On May 9, 2013, a lawsuit was filed against us by Coventry Enterprises, LLC in the United States District Court Southern District of New York.  This lawsuit arises from allegations that we breached our obligations to Coventry Enterprises, LLC under that certain $200,000 16% Senior Convertible Debenture due December 1, 2013 ("Coventry Note").  Due to our financial condition, we have been unable to repay the $200,000 in principal and accrued interest due under the Coventry Note.  Management is attempting to renegotiate the terms of the Coventry Note.

 
Between  February 4, 2013 and May 30, 2013, we entered into subscription agreements with eight investors pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 553,853 shares of restricted common stock at $0.65 and warrants to purchase 553,853 common shares with an exercise price of $0.90.  We received gross proceeds of $860,000, which were used to reduce our outstanding amount due to our primary wholesaler and general working capital purposes. The net cash proceeds from this private transaction were $814,190, net of closing fees of $45,810 which include $32,800 in placement agent fees paid to TriPoint Global Equities, LLC (“TriPoint”).  In addition, TriPoint also received warrants to purchase a total of 100,924 common shares of which 50,462 warrants and 50,462 warrants have an exercise price of $0.65 and $0.90, respectively.  The warrants were fully vested on the date of issuance and expire on May 30, 2018.

All of the common stock offerings and sales above were deemed to be exempt under Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The offerings and sales were made to a limited number of persons, all of whom were accredited investors, our business associates or existing security holders, and transfers of the securities were restricted by us in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act. In addition to representations by the above-referenced persons, we have made independent determinations that all of the above-referenced persons were accredited or sophisticated investors, were capable of analyzing the merits and risks of their investment, and understood the speculative nature of their investment. Furthermore, all of the above-referenced persons were provided with business and financial information concerning our company.

For each of the following common stock and warrant issuances, these securities were issued upon the exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 provided for by Section 4(2) thereof for transactions not involving a public offering. There were no underwriters or placement agents employed in connection with any of these transactions.  Use of this exemption is based on the following facts:

·  
Neither we nor any person acting on our behalf solicited any offer to buy nor sell securities by any form of general solicitation or advertising.
·  
The recipients were either accredited or otherwise sophisticated individuals who had such knowledge and experience in business matters that they were capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment in our securities.
·  
The recipients had access to business and financial information concerning our company.
·  
All securities issued were issued with a restrictive legend and may only be disposed of pursuant to an effective registration or exemption from registration in compliance with federal and state securities laws.

On February 22, 2013, we issued 227,333 common shares as payment of $45,667 in accrued interest on outstanding convertible debentures to a convertible debenture holder. The aggregate fair market value of the shares on the date of issuance was determined to be $102,300 or $0.45 per share.

On May 28, 2013, we issued to 205,556 shares of common stock upon conversion 185 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to one holder. The shares of common stock were issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933. We did not receive any proceeds upon conversion of such preferred shares and such issuances involved the issuance of shares to existing security holders in exchange for other securities.

On May 28, 2013, we issued 80,000 shares of restricted common stock to a consultant for financial consulting services provided.   We determined that the aggregate amount of consideration we received in exchange for these services to be $72,000 or $0.90 per share.

 
Due to our current financial condition, we did not make interest and principal payments due under various notes and debentures.
 
We previously entered into a Purchase Agreement with TPG, L.L.C. ("TPG") and acquired all of TPG's interest in the outstanding capital stock of API in exchange for a promissory note.  We did not make either the monthly installment payments of $10,000 from September 15, 2012 through June 15, 2013, which equaled an aggregate total of $100,000, or the $213,091 payment due to TPG on July 15, 2013, which includes principal and interest due under the note. We are discussing the possibility of TPG converting the outstanding balance due under the note into equity, but can provide no assurance that TPG will choose the convert its note into equity.  In order to secure our obligations under the Purchase Agreement, TPG holds a security interest in the shares of API capital stock acquired by us under the Purchase Agreement. As a result of this transaction, API also became our wholly owned subsidiary. TPG could declare us in default and seek to seize the shares of API capital stock acquired by us under the Purchase Agreement, which would result in API no longer being a wholly owned subsidiary.  If we were forced to pay this debt, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.  TPG has not issued a notice of default relating to our failure to make payments as required under the Purchase Agreement.
 
We did not make principal payments of $125,000 due on June 1, 2012 and September 1, 2012 and the remaining principal balance of $250,000 due on December 1, 2012 on an aggregate of $500,000 convertible debentures to three holders.  In addition, an aggregate of $84,934 in interest due on the debentures is past due as of June 30, 2013. We will attempt to restructure and extend the terms of payments due on the debenture, but can provide no assurance we will be able to do so on acceptable terms or even at all. All of these convertible debenture holders have issued a notice of default relating to our failure to pay the principal or interest due per the debenture agreement.

As of June 30, 2013, an aggregate total of $222,470 in interest due on an aggregate of $1,965,784 in convertible debentures held by nine holders is past due.  We will attempt to restructure and extend the terms of payments due on the debenture, but can provide no assurance we will be able to do so on acceptable terms or even at all. One of the nine convertible debenture holders of an aggregate of $1,000,000 in convertible debentures have  issued a notice of default relating to our failure to pay the  interest due per the debenture agreement.
