Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 
1.
Basis of Presentation
 
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of ActiveCare, Inc. (the “Company” or “ActiveCare”) have been prepared in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 may not be indicative of the results for the full fiscal year ending September 30, 2014.
 
During fiscal year 2013, the Company completed a 10-for-1 reverse common stock split, and all periods presented have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse common stock split.
 
Going Concern
 
Although the Company had a positive gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and fiscal year 2013, it has incurred negative cash flows from operating activities and recurring net losses for those same periods. The Company had positive working capital and positive stockholders equity as of December 31, 2013, however, it had negative working capital and negative stockholders equity as of September 30, 2013. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
In order for the Company to eliminate substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, it must continue to improve gross margins, generate positive cash flows from operating activities and obtain the necessary debt or equity funding to meet its projected capital investment requirements. Management’s plans with respect to this uncertainty include raising additional capital by issuing debt or equity securities and increasing the sales of the Company’s services and products. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company (1) completed the sale of $3,248,000, net of $477,229 of related costs, of Series F convertible preferred stock (“Series F preferred stock”); (2) converted $2,326,801 of debt and accrued interest to common stock; (3) converted $574,592 of debt and accrued interest to Series F preferred stock; and (4) converted $83,473 of debt and accrued interest to Series E preferred stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient additional capital or that revenues will increase rapidly enough to offset operating losses. If the Company is unable to increase revenues or obtain additional financing, it will be unable to continue the development of its products and may have to cease operations.
 
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company measured the fair values of its assets and liabilities using the US GAAP hierarchy.  The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term nature and liquidity of these financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value based on current market pricing models. The carrying amounts reported for notes payable approximate fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates.

Discontinued Operations
 
In June 2013, the Company sold the assets and liabilities of its reagents segment.  This segment was engaged in the business of manufacturing and marketing medical diagnostic stains, solutions and related equipment to hospitals and medical testing labs.  The purchaser was a former employee.
 
The Company no longer holds any ownership interest in the reagents segment and has ceased incurring costs related to its operations and development. The sale included all applicable segment assets and liabilities including, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, property, equipment and leased equipment.  The purchaser assumed the lease for general office and warehouse space.
 
As a result of the sale of the reagents business, the Company has reflected this segment as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months end December 31, 2012.  The following table summarizes certain operating data for discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012:

Net Loss per Common Share
 
Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  The computation of net loss per common share does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.
 
Common share equivalents consist of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options, stock purchase warrants and the conversion of convertible preferred stock or debt instruments into common stock.  As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were 15,947,310 and 8,792,477 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The anti-dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding consisted of the following as of:
 
   
December 31,
2013
   
December 31,
2012
 
Common stock options and warrants

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and has concluded that the future adoption of any such pronouncements will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

5.
Inventory
 
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventory is for the Chronic Illness Monitoring segment and consists of diabetic supplies.  The Company writes down inventory due to obsolescence and excessive quantities to estimated net realizable value.  Due to competitive pressures and technological innovation, it is possible that estimates of net realizable values could change in the near term.  As of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, inventory was $1,336,164 and $1,249,220, respectively.  
 
6.
Customer Contracts
 
During fiscal year 2012, the Company recorded customer contracts of $2,369,882 acquired in its purchase of 4G Biometrics, LLC and Green Wire, LLC and affiliates.  The Company is amortizing the customer contracts over their estimated useful lives (through 2015).  Amortization expense for each of the three-month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $208,258.  The Company’s future customer contract amortization as of December 31, 2013, is as follows:

Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company measured the fair values of its assets and liabilities using the US GAAP hierarchy levels as follows:
 
Level 1
The Company does not have any Level 1 inputs available to measure its assets.
   
Level 2
The Company’s embedded derivative liabilities are measured on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs.
   
Level 3
The Company’s goodwill is measured using Level 3 inputs.
 
The Company’s embedded derivative liabilities are re-measured to fair value as of each reporting date until the contingency is resolved, see Note 12.
 
12.
Derivatives Liability
 
The derivatives liability as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 was $0 and $795,151, respectively.  The elimination of the derivatives liability was due to the conversion of notes payable with variable conversion features.  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company estimated the fair value of the embedded derivatives prior to their conversion and elimination using a binomial option-pricing model with the following assumptions, according to the instrument: exercise price of $0.75 per share; risk free interest rate of 0.10%; expected life of 0.63 years; expected dividends of 0%; a volatility factor of 108%; and a stock price of $1.00.  The expected lives of the instruments were equal to the average term of the conversion option.  The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock.  The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury constant maturities rate for the expected life of the related conversion option. The dividend yield represents anticipated cash dividends to be paid over the expected life of the conversion option.  The gain on derivative liabilities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $479,737 and $38,337, respectively.
 
13.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
 
As of September 30, 2013, the Company had 480,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding (“Series C preferred stock”).  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, all 480,000 shares of Series C preferred stock were converted to 672,000 shares of common stock.  The conversion rate of 1.4 shares of common stock was greater than the designated conversion rate of one share of common stock and, therefore, the additional 192,000 shares were recorded as a deemed dividend. In addition, the Company recognized $11,367 of dividends on Series C preferred stock and settled the accrued dividends by issuing 11,599 shares of common stock.  The Series C preferred stock was non-voting.

Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, before any distribution or payment may be made to the holders of the common stock, the holders of the Series C preferred stock, Series D preferred stock, Series E preferred stock, and Series F preferred stock are entitled to be paid out of the assets an amount equal to $1.00 per share plus all accrued but unpaid dividends.  If the assets of the Company are insufficient to make payment in full to all holders of preferred stock, then the assets shall be distributed among the holders of preferred stock ratably in proportion to the full amounts to which they would otherwise be respectively entitled.

15.
Common Stock Options and Warrants
 
The fair value of common stock options and warrants are estimated on the dates of grant using a binomial option-pricing model.  The expected lives of stock options and warrants represent the period of time that the stock options and warrants are expected to be outstanding, based on the simplified method.  Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, among other factors.  The Company uses the simplified method within the valuation model due to the Company’s short trading history and limited exercise history.  The risk-free rate related to the expected term of the stock option and warrants is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  The dividend yield is zero.
 
During fiscal years 2013 and 2012, the Company measured the fair values of the warrants using a binomial valuation model with the following assumptions:
 
 
 Three Months Ended

Our primary focus is on markets addressing chronic conditions and disease states.  During fiscal years 2013 and 2012, we received valuable feedback through sales and focus groups reaching thousands of patients.  In fiscal year 2012, we launched an additional product line focused on technology for assisting the chronically ill.  Remote patient monitoring (“RPM”) is a technology to enable monitoring of patient vital signs and physical functions outside of conventional clinical settings (e.g., in the home, work or travel).  Physiological data such as blood sugar levels, blood pressure, pulse rate, and blood oxygen levels are collected by sensors on medical peripheral devices.  Examples of these devices include glucometers, blood pressure cuffs, and pulse oximeters.  The data is stored for future assessment or transmitted to healthcare providers or third parties via wireless telecommunication devices.  Disease states targeted by RPM technology providers typically include diabetes, congestive heart failure, sleep apnea, activity monitoring, and diet management.  We believe that we can improve the lives of the chronically ill and the elderly through the use of technology, while reducing the cost of care.  Central to these efforts is our state-of-the-art “CareCenter.”  This service is designed to monitor and track patients’ health conditions and chronic illnesses on a real time basis.  As part of these efforts we have staffed this sophisticated CareCenter with highly trained specialists to assist the chronically ill and elderly in managing their daily lives; 24 hours per day, seven days per week.  In order for the CareCenter to service our customers, we have developed and continue to develop numerous products designed to improve the health of the chronically ill and to enable the elderly to maintain a more active and mobile lifestyle.
 
Recent Developments
 
We have financed operations primarily through the sale of equity securities, long-term debt and short-term debt.  Until revenues are sufficient to meet our needs, we will attempt to secure financing through financial institutions or through the sale of our equity or debt securities.  There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on satisfactory terms or at all.  If we only have nominal funds with which to conduct our business activities, it will negatively impact the results of our operations and our financial condition.
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we (1) completed the sale of $3,248,000, net of $477,219 of related costs, of Series F preferred stock; (2) converted $2,326,801 of debt and accrued interest to common stock; (3) converted $574,592 of debt and accrued interest to Series F preferred stock; and (4) converted $83,473 of debt and accrued interest to Series E preferred stock.  These transactions strengthened our balance sheet and allow us to fulfill and finalize larger contracts.
 
During fiscal year 2013, we sold the net assets and operations of our reagents business segment for cash of $184,318.  The sale of the reagent segment allows us to focus our resources on the Chronic Illness Monitoring and CareService segments
 
During fiscal year 2012, we established GWire Corporation (“GWire”) as a subsidiary.  Effective September 1, 2012, GWire acquired the net assets and interests of Green Wire, LLC and affiliates (“Green Wire”).  We entered into employment agreements with two of Green Wire’s operating managers on November 1, 2012. These two individuals were granted 27% ownership in GWire; ActiveCare retained the remaining 73%.  During fiscal year 2013, the GWire operating managers converted their 27% ownership in GWire and 425,000 of related options to acquire shares of our common stock and as a result, we now own 100% of GWire.
 
Our Product and Service Strategy
 
Our product/service strategy falls into two distinctly different categories: (1) Chronic Illness Monitoring, and (2) CareServices or personal emergency response systems (“PERS”).
 
 
18

 
 
Chronic Illness Monitoring
 
Chronic illness monitoring involves the use of biometric monitoring devices in combination with proprietary data and algorithms to assess and predict the wellbeing of an individual under care.  Individual care profiles are created through the aggregation of personal health and medical claims information from multiple data sources.  Real-time biometric readings for blood glucose levels, blood pressure, heart rate, weight, tidal volume and other vital readings are captured over time and added to the existing personal information.  This unique data set is used for proactive care protocols, care provider alerts to elevated readings, and behavioral intervention prior to crisis events.
 
Technology to facilitate data-driven chronic illness monitoring consists of three components: (1) biometric monitoring devices, (2) medical and claims data aggregation, and (3) algorithms for the analysis of the data.  Biometric monitoring devices are provided by numerous medical hardware providers and deliver a wide range of features and functionality.  Our ActiveCare technology is agnostic to any specific device requirement, and has as a core competency the ability to integrate to and capture data from any 510(k) or HL7 compliant monitoring device.  Strategic relationships have been created with technology and market leaders, and evaluation of new and emerging technology partners is ongoing.  Medical and claims data is aggregated from multiple source providers using a proprietary application programmatic interface and data storage architecture.  This data is analyzed to identify individual care needs of those entering the program.  Monitoring alerts, predictive informatics and individual care plans are created and managed using our technology platform.  Care for chronic conditions may now be performed in real-time, and outcomes may be measured on both a medical and claims cost basis.
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we spent approximately $75,000 on research and development primarily for chronic illness monitoring related to the development of prototype methods and systems for the capture and analysis of data, as well as the development of scalable architectures to migrate to production applications and deployments.  We will continue to identify claims and medical data sets as well as analytical and informatics technologies that advance our ability to provide unique services.  Core competency will continue to evolve in the methods and technologies for data analytics and predictive informatics. 
 
CareCenter
 
The central point of our product offerings is our state-of-the-art CareCenter.  Our CareCenter is staffed 24x7 with CareCenter specialists who are 911-certified and trained.  In addition, we have nurses on duty and on call that are available to assist with medical issues or questions.  Our CareCenter specialists and CareCenter provide services ranging from responding to fall alerts detected and communicated by our devices, to full service concierge services.  The staff at the CareCenter provides assistance with everyday living needs of our members, and in an emergency situation, the 911-trained CareSpecialist evaluates the situation and decides whether to call emergency services and/or a designated friend or family member.
 
In contrast to a typical monitoring center, our CareCenter is equipped with hardware and software that pinpoints the location of the incoming caller by utilizing GPS and/or cellular triangulation technology.  This capability is referred to as “telemetric”.  The operator (or CareSpecialist) can locate the caller’s precise location on a detailed map.  In addition, the CareCenter’s software will identify the caller, access the individual’s medical information, and provide location services, emergency dispatch, and medical history to emergency responders.  We believe the CareCenter is the cornerstone of our business and will support current technology as well as evolve to support the integration of future technologies.
 
CareServices
 
We have developed products that incorporate GPS, cellular capability, and fall detection, all of which are connected to our 24-hour CareCenter with the push of a button.  The transmitter can be worn on a neck pendant or belt clip, or carried in a purse, and sends a cellular signal to our CareCenter.  When the wearer of the device pushes the button, the staff at the CareCenter evaluate the situation and decide whether to call emergency services or a designated friend or family member.
 
Currently, there are separate products on the market that provide service to the PERS industry as well as products that provide fall detection, geographical location, and clinical health parameters.  However, we believe that no product on the market today has successfully integrated all of these technologies in a single effective device.  Further, none of the current solutions in the market focus on providing CareServices – assistance with everyday needs – as an alternative to costly assisted living or in-home care services as we do.

Research and Development Program
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we spent approximately $75,000 compared to $97,000 spent during the same period in 2012, on research and development primarily related to chronic illness monitoring, including work related to the development of prototype methods and systems for the capture and analysis of data, as well as the development of scalable architectures to migrate to production applications and deployments.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The following summary includes accounting policies that we deem to be most critical to our business.  Management considers an accounting estimate to be critical if:
 
·
It requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, and
   
·
Changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been selected could have a material impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations or financial position.
 
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
 
We have prepared and included with this report unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP.
 
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities; revenues and expenses for the reporting periods.  By their nature, these estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventory, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue recognition, and income taxes.  We base our estimates on historical experience and other facts and circumstances that are believed to be reasonable and the results provide a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of the related assets and liabilities.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and these differences may be material.
 
In May 2013, we completed a 10-for-1 reverse common stock split.  The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes for all periods presented in this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse common stock split.
 
Material accounting policies that we believe are critical to an understanding of our financial results and conditions are described below.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature and liquidity of these financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value based on current market pricing models. We estimate that, based on current market conditions, the fair values of long-term debt obligations approximate their carrying values as of December 31, 2013.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
We have cash in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.  We have not experienced any losses in these accounts.
 
In the normal course of business, we provide credit terms to our customers and require no collateral.  We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition.  We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon management’s specific review and assessment of each account at the period end.
 
 
20

 
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis.  Specific allowances are estimated by management based on certain assumptions and variables, including the customer’s financial condition, age of the customer’s receivables and changes in payment histories.  Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible.  A receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance has not been received by the contractual payment date.  Interest is not charged on accounts receivable that are past due.
 
Inventory
 
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Chronic Illness Monitoring inventory consists of diabetic supplies.  Provisions, when required, are made to reduce excess and obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values.  Due to competitive pressures and technological innovation, it is possible that estimates of the net realizable values could change in the near term.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization are determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, typically three to seven years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the asset or the term of the lease.  Equipment leased to customers is depreciated over the three year useful lives of the related equipment, regardless of whether the equipment is leased to customers or remaining in stock, and is recorded in the cost of revenues for CareServices.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon the sale or disposal of property and equipment, any gains or losses are included in the results of operations.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill is not amortized but is reviewed for potential impairment at least annually.  The identification and measurement of goodwill impairment involves the estimation of the fair value of our reporting units.  The estimates of fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment, which primarily incorporate management assumptions about expected future cash flows.  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, no events or circumstances indicated we should perform a goodwill impairment review.  Future cash flows can be affected by changes in industry or market conditions.  Goodwill was not impaired during fiscal year 2013.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
Purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from two to twenty years.  Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be recoverable.  Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition.  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, no events or circumstances indicated the carrying amounts of any long-lived assets may not be recoverable.  No long-lived assets were considered to be impaired during fiscal year 2013.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Our revenue has historically been from three sources: (1) sales of Chronic Illness Monitoring services and supplies; (2) sales from CareServices; (3) sales of medical diagnostic stains from our Reagents segment, which was sold during fiscal year 2013.  Information regarding revenue recognition policies relating to our current business segments is contained in the following paragraphs.
 
Chronic Illness Monitoring
 
We recognize Chronic Illness Monitoring revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer, prices are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.
 
Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are included as part of net revenues.  The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.  Sales of Chronic Illness Monitoring products and services do not contain multiple deliverables.
 
We enter into agreements with insurance companies, disease management companies, and self-insured companies (collectively, customers) to lower medical expenses by distributing diabetic testing supplies to their customers or employees (members) and monitoring their test results.  Customers are obligated to pay for the supplies at the time of shipment and cash is due from these customers as the product is deployed to the members.  The term of these contracts are generally one year and, unless terminated by either party, will automatically renew for another year.  Collection terms are net 30-days after claims are submitted.  Chronic Illness Monitoring sales for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $2,079,000.
 
 
21

 
 
To qualify for the recognition of revenue at the time of sale, the following must exist:
 
·
The price to the contracted self-insured company is fixed or determinable.
   
·
The self-insured company has paid or is obligated to pay us within terms.
   
·
The self-insured company’s obligation to the Company would not be changed in the event of theft or physical destruction or damage of the product.
   
·
Once the product is shipped, the end user does not have the right of return.
 
CareServices
 
“CareServices” include contracts in which we provide monitoring services to end users and sell devices to distributors.  We typically enter into contracts on a month-to-month basis with customers (members) that use our CareServices.  However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at any time with 30-days notice.  Under our standard contract, the device becomes billable on the date the member orders the product, and remains billable until the device is returned to us.  We recognize revenue on devices at the end of each month that CareServices have been provided.  In those circumstances in which payment is received in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.
 
We recognize CareServices revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer, prices are fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.  Shipping and handling fees are included as part of net revenues.  The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to members are included as a component of cost of revenues.  All CareServices sales are made with net 30-day payment terms.  CareServices sales for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $349,000.
 
To qualify for the recognition of revenue at the time of sale, the following must exist:
 
·
The price to the buyer is fixed or determinable.
   
·
The buyer has paid or the buyer is obligated to pay within terms, and the obligation is not contingent on resale of the product.
   
·
The buyer’s obligation would not be changed in the event of theft or physical destruction or damage of the product.
   
·
The buyer acquiring the product for resale has economic substance apart from that provided by us.
   
·
We do not have significant obligations for future performance to directly bring about resale of the product by the buyer.
   
·
The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated and are not significant.
 
The vast majority of sales for CareServices are service revenues.  Because equipment sales are not material, we present services and equipment sales together in the accompanying financial statements.
 
Results of Operations
 
Three Months Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
 
Revenues
 
Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $2,428,000 compared to $2,374,000 for the same period in 2012.  Revenues from Chronic Illness Monitoring were $2,079,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $1,954,000 for the same period in 2012.  The increase is due to sales to existing customers and improving our services.  Revenues from CareServices were $349,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $420,000 for the same period in 2012.  The decrease is due to customer attrition.
 
Cost of revenues
 
Cost of revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $1,494,000, compared to $2,183,000 for the same period in 2012.  The decrease in cost of revenues is due to lower costs to deliver our products and services.  Chronic Illness Monitoring costs of revenue were $1,192,000 and CareServices costs of revenue were $302,000.
 
Gross Profit
 
Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $934,000, compared to $190,000 for the same period in 2012.  The improvement in gross profit resulted primarily from Chronic Illness Monitoring sales to existing customers.  We expect gross profit to improve in fiscal year 2014 as we onboard more Chronic Illness Monitoring customers and retain existing customers.
 
 
22

 
 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $2,710,000, compared to $2,677,000 for the same period in 2012.  The expenses incurred were required to support the growth of Chronic Illness Monitoring.
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $75,000, compared to $97,000 for the same period in 2012.  We expect to continue investing in research and development as we develop new platforms for Chronic Illness Monitoring.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $1,269,000, compared to $1,024,000 for the same period in 2012.  The increase was primarily due to debt financing received to grow the Chronic Illness Monitoring business.  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, $2,985,000 of debt and accrued interest was converted to shares of common stock, Series E preferred stock and Series F preferred stock.
 
Other Income and Expense
 
The gain on derivatives liability for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $480,000, compared to $38,000 for the same period in 2012.  During the three months ended December 31, 2013, the derivatives liability was eliminated due to the conversion of notes payable with variable conversion features.
 
Discontinued Operations
 
In June 2013, we sold the net assets and operations of the reagents business segment of the Company to a third party for $184,000 in cash.  Loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was $14,000.
 
Net Loss
 
Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $2,752,000, compared to $3,581,000 for the same period in 2012 for the reasons described above.
 
Dividends on Preferred Stock
 
We accrued $153,000 of dividends on preferred stock for the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $60,000 for the same period in 2012.  The increase in dividends was due to the increased number of shares of Series E preferred stock and Series F preferred stock issued and outstanding during the current period.  In addition recognized a deemed dividend of $2,235,000 on the conversion of Series C preferred stock and Series D preferred stock to shares of common stock at rates better than their original designation.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our primary sources of liquidity are the proceeds from the sale of our equity securities and borrowings.  We have not historically financed operations from cash flows from operating activities.  We anticipate that we will continue to seek funding to supplement revenues from the sale of our products and services through the sale of equity securities and borrowings until we achieve positive cash flows from operating activities.
 
Our cash balance as of December 31, 2013 was $354,000.  At that time, we had working capital of $1,286,000, compared to a working capital deficit of $3,251,000 as of September 30, 2013.  The increase working capital is primarily due to the sale of Series F preferred stock and the conversion of debt and accrued interest into common stock, Series E preferred stock and Series F preferred stock.
 
Operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 used cash of $2,675,000, compared to $2,864,000 for the same period in 2012.  The decreased in cash used in operating activities was due to increased gross profit of our Chronic Illness Monitoring segment, offset by the payment of accounts payable.
 
Investing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 used cash of $52,000, compared to $129,000 for the same period in 2012.  The decreased use of cash in investing activities was due to the fact that we made no purchases of equipment leased to customers for our CareServices segment during the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013 provided cash of $2,857,000, compared to $2,499,000 for the same period in 2012. The increase in cash provided from financing activities is due to the increase in debt and equity financing during the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
 
23

 
 
We had an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2013 of $66,228,000, compared to $63,311,000 as of September 30, 2013.  Our total stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2013 was $3,764,000 compared to total stockholders’ deficit of $791,000 as of September 30, 2013.  These changes were primarily due the sale of Series F preferred stock, the conversion of debt to equity and our net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements will cause a material impact on our financial position or the results of our operations.
 
Item 3.                      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Information about the Company’s exposure to market risk was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 14, 2014. There have been no material quantitative or qualitative changes in market risk exposure since the date of that filing.
 
Item 4.                      Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods that are specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding any required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating these disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, for the reasons discussed below.  
 
During the audit process for the year ended September 30, 2013, we identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as follows:
 
Control Environment
 
We did not maintain an effective control environment for internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we concluded that we did not have appropriate controls in the following areas:

·
Period end financial disclosure and reporting processes;
   
·
Segregation of incompatible duties of various accounting functions;
   
·
Review and approval of manual journal entries.
 
Financial Reporting Process 
 
We are in the process of improving our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to eliminate these material weaknesses through improved supervision and training of our staff, but additional effort and staffing is needed to fully remedy these deficiencies. Our management, audit committee, and directors will continue to work with outside advisors to cause our controls and procedures to become adequate and effective.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we integrated new staff, improved supervision and trained staff to improve internal control over financial reporting.
