Preliminary Note
As described in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 5, 2016, we announced that the previously issued consolidated financial statements covering the Companys fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (including financial information contained therein for prior periods) and the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 (collectively, the Restatement Reports), require restatement and should no longer be relied upon. The Company amended the Restatement Reports to correct the errors (such corrected Restatement Reports referred to in this Quarterly Report as the Amended Reports) and filed them with the Securities and Exchange Commission immediately prior to the filing of this Quarterly Report.
The Amended Reports corrected errors related to (1) accounting for warrants and options issued in the Companys private placements in 2013, 2014 and 2015 and options granted to non-employees; (2) business combination accounting with respect to the Athas (including correction to our accounting policies related to accounts receivable factoring activities that commenced with the Athas transaction) and First Nobilis transactions that occurred in December and September 2014, respectively; (3) reclassification of contingently redeemable noncontrolling interests to temporary equity; (4) share-based compensation matters; and (5) calculations of fully diluted shares outstanding for application of the treasury stock method.
Certain details regarding those errors and adjustments are more fully discussed in Note 1-Nature of Operations Restatement included in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and Note 1, Company Description Restatement to the consolidated financial statements included in Part II Item 8 (Financial Statements and Supplementary Data) in Amendment No. 1 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the 10-K/A) as well as the Explanatory Note in the 10-K/A.

NOBILIS HEALTH CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share
amounts and as otherwise noted)
1. Nature of Operations, Restatement and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
Nobilis Health Corp. was incorporated on March 16, 2007 under the name "Northstar Healthcare Inc." pursuant to the provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act ("BCBCA" ) . On December 5, 2014, Northstar Healthcare Inc. changed its name to Nobilis Health Corp. (the Company, we, our, us).
We own and manage healthcare facilities (the "Nobilis Facilities") in Texas and Arizona; including hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers (ASC), referred to as the "Nobilis ASCs". The Nobilis ASCs are licensed ASCs that provide scheduled surgical procedures in a limited number of clinical specialties, which enables them to develop routines, procedures and protocols to maximize operating efficiency and productivity while offering an enhanced healthcare experience for both physicians and patients. In December 2014, the Company expanded its services to health care marketing and factoring of receivables when it acquired 100% interests of Athas Health, LLC (Athas).
The Nobilis ASCs do not offer the full range of services typically found in traditional hospitals, but instead focus on certain clinical specialties, including orthopedic surgery, podiatric surgery, ENT, pain management, gastro- intestinal, gynecology, and general surgery. Nobilis hospitals focus on these same specialties with the ability to take on more complex cases.
Restatement
In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we identified errors related to: (1) accounting for warrants and options issued in the Companys private placements in 2013, 2014 and 2015 and options granted to non-employees; (2) business combination accounting with respect to the Athas (including correction to our accounting policies related to accounts receivable factoring activities that commenced with the Athas transaction) and First Nobilis transactions that occurred in December and September 2014, respectively, (3) reclassification of contingently redeemable noncontrolling interests to temporary equity, (4) share-based compensation matters and (5) calculations of fully diluted shares outstanding for application of the treasury stock method. As a result of these errors, we filed the Amending Filings restating our financial statements for the periods therein. In this Form 10-Q, we have included in our consolidated financial information the restated amounts reflected in the Form 10-K/A.
On December 29, 2015, our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, after consultation with management and the Company's predecessor auditors concluded that the Company's financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, should be restated because the financial statements did not properly account for the following items:
-
Accounting for warrants and options issued in private placements and options issued to non-employees as liabilities The Company determined that FASB ASC 815-40-15-7I (ASC 815-40), Contracts in entities own equity, should have been applied to the accounting for warrants and options issued in private placements and for options issued to non-employees. This accounting would have resulted in the Company classifying warrants and options issued in connection with 2013 and 2014 private placements by the Company as liabilities rather than as stockholders equity. Similarly, this same accounting is applicable to stock options issued to non-employees once the performance conditions of such awards are completed. The Company first issued options to non-employees during the second quarter of 2014. Once recorded as liabilities, the warrants and options must be revalued each quarter with changes in their valuation reflected in earnings.
At December 31, 2013, the warrant and stock option liabilities recognized for the proper application of ASC 815-40 in the Companys balance sheet totaled $2.4 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, $2 thousand of expense was recognized for increases in the value of such liabilities (a total of $744 thousand of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014). At December 31, 2014, the warrant and stock option liabilities recognized for the proper application of ASC 815-40 in the Companys balance sheet totaled $6.7 million.
-
Recognition of the full fair value of noncontrolling interests in the acquisition of First Nobilis as required by U.S. GAAP instead of at a pro-rata value permitted under IFRS We initially adopted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) effective January 1, 2013 in connection with our filings made with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission for registration of our stock in early 2015. Previously we prepared our financial statements under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The Company determined that FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (ASC 805) was not properly applied in the initial adoption of U.S. GAAP by the Company and its application to the First Nobilis acquisition completed in September 2014. Under U.S. GAAP, noncontrolling interests should be measured at fair value on the acquisition date [ASC 805-20-30-1] whereas under IFRS these may be measured at their proportionate share of the recognized amount of the acquirees identifiable net assets [IFRS 3.19].
The impact of the proper application of ASC 805 as of the date of acquisition (September 2014) is a reduction in noncontrolling interests of $2.0 million; a decrease in acquired intangible assets of $1.4 million and a decrease in recognized goodwill of $0.6 million. Amortization expense recognized since the acquisition date will decrease by $15 thousand quarterly because of this change.
Page 9 of 54 |
- Other Adjustments We have also identified and made correction for certain other accounting matters affecting our previous financial statements. These include (i) corrections for stock-based compensation expense for expected term, forfeitures and related assumptions in determining the grant date valuations of option awards, (ii) corrections to the accounting for options issued to non-employees to measure such awards as of the date that performance was completed, and (iii) corrections to the calculations of fully diluted shares outstanding for application of the treasury stock method. The combined impact of these other corrections was a decrease in compensation expense of $16 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 (decrease of $215 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014).
We initially became aware of the above matters as part of the preparation of our financial statements during the third quarter of 2015 and review by the Companys newly engaged independent registered public accounting firm. The adjustments do not impact the Company's previously reported total revenues, cash, cash equivalents or cash flows from operating, financing or investing activities.
The Company has restated certain amounts included in these financial statements as follows:

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in the 10-K/A December 31, 2014. If not materially different, certain footnote disclosures included in the Annual Report have been omitted from this Quarterly Report on 10-Q.
The interim consolidated financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period consolidated financial statements, have been made. Results of operations reported for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These accounting estimates reflect the best judgement of management, but actual results could differ.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. Following an intial delay of the effective date, the guidance was issued in August 2015 under ASCU 2015-14. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance on the accounting for certain share-based employee compensation awards. The amended guidance applies to share-based employee compensation awards that include a performance target that affects vesting when the performance target can be achieved after the requisite service period. These targets are to be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award and compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved. The amendments are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance on the consolidation of legal entities including limited partnerships and limited liability corporations. The guidance modifies the consolidation models to be analyzed in determining whether a reporting entity should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The guidance must be applied using one of two retrospective application methods and will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company does not expect adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance in order to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability rather than as a deferred charge asset as required under current guidance. The guidance also requires that the amortization of debt issuance costs be reported as interest expense. The guidance is effective for the Company starting January 1, 2016 and must be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has chosen to early adopt this guidance as of the interim period ended March 31, 2015. No retrospective application was deemed necessary, as the Company did not have any debt issuance costs prior to the three months ended March 31, 2015. Approximately $0.6 million of debt issuance costs have been deducted from the carrying amount of debt as of September 30, 2015.
In September 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-16, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." The update requires than an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined, including the cumulative effect of the change in provisional amount as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The adjustments related to previous reporting periods since the acquisition date must be disclosed by income statement line item either on the face of the income statement or in the notes. The Company adopted this ASU during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Accordingly, we applied the amendments in this update to the measurement period adjustments made during the three months ended September 31, 2015 with no material effect on previous-period or current-period earnings.
2. Deconsolidations
During the first quarter of the fiscal year, we completed the deconsolidation of two imaging centers and one urgent care clinic in Houston, which consisted of the following entities: Spring Northwest Management, LLC., Spring Northwest Operating, LLC. and Willowbrook Imaging, LLC. We resigned as the manager of these facilities resulting in loss of control and our rights to exercise significant influence. We retained investments in these facilities that are accounted for as cost method investments beginning January 1, 2015. The revaluation of our remaining investments in these facilities resulted in no gain or loss due to the short term these investments were held. The carrying value as of September 30, 2015 is $1.4 million, which approximates calculated fair value. The investments are classified as assets in the consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Investment in Associates”.
The fair value of investments in the operating entities (Spring Northwest Operating, LLC; and Spring Northwest Management, LLC and wholly owned subsidiaries; Spring Creek Urgent Care, LLC and Spring Creek Imaging LLC), were primarily determined by the discounted future cash flow method, except for Willowbrook Imaging, LLC and GRIP Medical Diagnostics, LLC, which were valued using the cost approach. The investment in holding entities (KIRPA Holdings, LLC and Northstar Healthcare Northwest Management, LLC), were valued based on the adjusted net asset value method.
The primary inputs for the operating entities included the discount rate, long-term growth rate and discount for lack of marketability.
The discount rate for the operating entity engaged in the leasing businesses were 3% and 4%, for Class B units and Class A units, respectively, which represent the estimated after-tax cost of debt of the counter party. The discount rate for the imaging and urgent care center was 14.5% and 15.5% for Class B units and Class A units, respectively, which represents the estimated cost of equity. The long-term growth rate for Spring Northwest Management, LLC and wholly owned subsidiaries was 3%. The discount for lack of marketability for the operating entities was 25%.
The primary input for the holding entity, KIRPA Holdings, LLC, includes a 5% discount for lack of control and a 10% discount for lack of marketability.

3. Investments in Associates
In March 2014, the Company acquired an ownership interest in Group of Pioneers Diagnostics (GOP), LLC, representing 40% of the outstanding share interests in GOP. The investment was previously accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In March 2015, the Company resigned as manager of GOP resulting in the loss of ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial activities of the investee. As a result, the investment will be accounted for under the cost method accounting. The carrying value of this investment at September 30, 2015 was $0.2 million, and is reflected in investments in associates in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company has other investments using the cost method which aggregate to $0.7 million.
4. Business Combinations
Imaging Centers and Urgent Care Clinic
In January 2014, the Company acquired an ownership interest in two imaging centers and one urgent care clinic in Houston. The Company acquired a 32.14% interest in Spring Northwest Operating, LLC., a 31.78% interest in Spring Northwest Management, LLC. and a 22.22% interest in Willowbrook Imaging, LLC. The aggregate cost of the acquisition is comprised of $0.3 million in cash, net of acquired cash, and 431,711 shares of Nobilis stock representing a combined value of $1.4 million.
This transaction was treated as a business combination. The fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired were determined with the assistance of independent third party valuation experts. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $0.7 million of goodwill within our medical services segment which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the ability to further diversify the Companys revenue stream while creating a valuable presence in the Northwest region of the Houston, Texas market.
Effectiving January 1, 2015, there entities were deconsolidated. See Note 2.

First Nobilis, LLC (First Nobilis)
In September 2014, the Company formed First Nobilis, a Texas limited liability Company. First Nobilis is owned 51% by the Company and 49% by a third party. First Nobilis formed two subsidiary Texas limited liability companies to be the new operating entities.
Upon formation of First Nobilis, effective September 1, 2014, Nobilis contributed $7.5 million in cash to the new entity. For a 49% ownership interest, a third party contributed medical supplies, intangible assets, and certain accounts payables and accounts receivables. As part of the transaction, certain of the Companys assets were used as collateral on lines of credit for the landlord which were satisfied in December 2015. The Company entered into the First Nobilis arrangement in order to establish its first hospital platform in the Houston market for serving a broader patient population with higher acuity.
This transaction was treated as a business combination. The fair value of the intangible assets and liabilities acquired were determined with the assistance of independent third party valuation experts. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $0.6 million of goodwill within our medical services segment which is deductible for tax purposes. As this transaction has resulted in the Companys first acute care facility in the Houston market, the Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of our enhanced service option to provide patients with a higher acuity of care.
Page 15 of 54 |
The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was also determined with the assistance of a third party valuation expert using both Level 2 inputs, which include observable market data other than quoted prices and Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable data. The implied noncontrolling interest value, as calculated using the implied equity value of the Company and the 49% minority interest percentage, was discounted for both lack of control and lack of marketability using various inputs, including volatility, certain market control premiums from similar market transactions and the estimated amount of time it would take to sell the equity in the market without affecting the price.

Athas Health, LLC (Athas)
In December 2014, the Company completed its acquisition of Athas for total consideration of approximately $31.2 million (all $ denominations in US dollars). Athas is based in Dallas, Texas, and focuses on the delivery of specialized healthcare services in seven states through the use of contracted marketing services and factoring of receivables. They are a nationwide direct-to-consumer marketing company with multiple established campaigns in various clinical service lines. Through the acquisition of Athas, the Company is able to vastly expand its marketing infrastructure.
The purchase price for Nobilis to acquire all of the ownership interests in Athas was broken down as follows: $3.0 million in cash upon closing, the issuance of a promissory note by Nobilis to the sellers for $12.0 million, the issuance at closing of 6,666,666 shares of Nobilis common stock that are subject to a lock up of up to two years, and the issuance of an additional 4,666,666 shares of Nobilis common stock to be issued over two years with half issued on the first anniversary of the closing and the second half issued on the second anniversary of the closing. Under the two year lock up period, the stock issued as part of the purchase price is subject to restrictions on transfer and may not be sold or pledged until the lock out period is released.
The fair value of the assets acquired were determined with the assistance of independent third party valuation experts.
The fair value of the stock issued for consideration was also determined with the assistance of a third party valuation expert using both Level 1 inputs, which include quoted market prices, and Level 2 inputs, which include observable data other than quoted prices. The value was determined using the published stock price on the date of closing, less a discount for lack of marketability as a result of the two year lock up period on the shares issued. The discount for lack of marketability was calculated using observable volatility rates from comparable companies, quoted risk free rates and the expected holding period as a result of the two year lock up period. The discount for lack of marketability range from 18% to 30%.
As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $19.0 million of goodwill within our marketing segment which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the potential benefit of having a marketing platform with proprietary technology in customer relation management that further distinguishes us from other healthcare providers, in addition to being able to enhance our marketing capabilities by broadening the Companys reach to new patient markets.

Hermann Drive Surgical Hospital (Hermann Drive) (f/k/a Victory Medical Center Houston)
In April 2015, the Company acquired a 55% ownership interest in Victory Medical Center Houston, L.P. (n/k/a Hermann Drive Surgical Hospital, LP), which owns and operates Victory Healthcare Houston Hospital (n/k/a Hermann Drive Surgical Hospital), a surgical hospital located in the Texas Medical Center in Houston, Texas. The Company paid $1.4 million in cash and assumed certain leases and loans of Hermann Drive. The acquisition of Hermann Drive provides the Company with managed care contracts spread across several major insurance carriers. Through this acquisition, the Company will also establish greater geographical coverage with this facility being located in the Texas Medical Center with a group of established physician partners.
The fair value of the intangible assets and physical equipment were determined with the assistance of independent third party valuation experts. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has preliminarily recognized $10.9 million of goodwill within our medical services segment which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the business opportunities to be gained through the expanded geographical coverage as well as the access to a new physician group. In addition, the managed care contracts at this facility allow the Company to offer its services to a broader market segment.
The fair value of the noncontrolling interest was also determined with the assistance of a third party valuation expert using both Level 2 inputs, which include observable market data other than quoted prices and Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable data. The implied noncontrolling interest value, as calculated using the implied equity value of the Company and the 45% minority interest percentage, was discounted for both lack of control and lack of marketability using various inputs, including volatility, certain market control premiums from similar market transactions and the estimated amount of time it would take to sell the equity in the market without affecting the price.
Subsequent to the acquisition date of April 24, 2015, Hermann Drive had $5.7 million in revenues and a loss of $1.7 million which is included in the Companys September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.
The costs related to the transaction were nominal and were expensed during the three months ended June 30, 2015. These costs are included in the corporate general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.
During the measurement period, management determined certain adjustments to the acquired assets and liabilities which are detailed in the table below. FASB Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, as amended by ASU 2015-16, requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company made the adjustments specified below with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill, and with no material effect on previous-period or current-period earnings or other comprehensive income.

The fair values assigned to certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to the Companys acquisition have been prepared on a preliminary basis with information currently available and are subject to change. Specifically, the Company is further assessing the valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired and obligations assumed pending the final appraisals. The Company expects to finalize its analysis during 2016.

Peak Surgeon Innovations, LLC (Peak)
In June 2015, the Company acquired Peak, a provider of intraoperative neuromonitoring ("IOM") services for hospitals, surgery centers and other healthcare facilities. The acquisition serves to expand the Companys service coverage into multiple locations across multiple states. The Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in Peak for cash consideration of $0.9 million and stock consideration of $0.7 million provided to Bryan Hasse (the Seller). In addition to such cash and stock consideration, the Seller is eligible to receive a potential earnout payment (in cash or stock at the option of Seller) upon achievement by the IOM service line of certain EBITDA performance metrics.
Subsequent to the acquisition date of June 1, 2015, Peak had $1.0 million in revenues and income of $0.1 million which is included in the Companys September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.
The costs related to the transaction were nominal and were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These costs are included in the corporate general and administrative expenses in the September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.
During the measurement period, management determined certain adjustments to the acquired assets and liabilities which are detailed in the table below. FASB Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations, as amended by ASU 2015-16, requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company made the adjustments specified below with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill, and with no material effect on previous-period or current-period earnings or other comprehensive income.

The fair values assigned to certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed in relation to the Companys acquisition have been prepared on a preliminary basis with information currently available and are subject to change. Specifically, the Company is further assessing the earn-out calculation, the valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets acquired and obligations assumed pending the final appraisals. The Company expects to finalize its analysis during 2016.
The Company is currently in the process of determining the fair value of any potential intangible assets with the assistance of independent third party valuation expert. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has preliminarily recognized $1.4 million of goodwill within our medical services segment which is deductible for tax purposes. The Company believes that the goodwill is primarily comprised of the business opportunities to be realized through Peaks existing service infrastructure and relationships with health care facilities across the U.S. In addition, the acquisition of Peak allows the Company to vertically integrate its surgical services and capture revenues which have previously been realized by external service providers.
The capital leases assumed consist of medical equipment and contain a bargain purchase option.

The fair value of the intangible assets acquired were determined with the assistance of independent third party valuation experts.
Subsequent to the acquisition date of July 30, 2015, Marsh Lane had $3.1 million in revenues and a nominal loss which is included in the Companys September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.
The costs related to the transaction were nominal and were expensed during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These costs are included in the corporate general and administrative expenses in the September 30, 2015 consolidated statements of operations.

The above table includes 650,000 options issued to nonemployees. See Note 13 for discussion regarding the classification of these options in the balance sheet.
The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2.9 and $0.6, respectively. The total intrinsic value for all in-the-money vested outstanding stock options at September 30, 2015 was $4.6 million. Assuming all stock options outstanding at September 30, 2015 were vested, the total intrinsic value of in-the-money outstanding stock options would have been $12.1 million.
The Company recorded total stock compensation expense relative to employee stock options of $1.3 million and $0.1 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $4.3 and $0.2 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The fair values of the employee stock options used in recording compensation expense are computed using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The table below shows the assumptions used in the model for options awarded during the three months ended September 30, 2015.
Nine months ended | |||
September 30, 2015 | |||
Expected price volatility | 113% - 122% | ||
Risk free interest rate | 1.34% - 1.87% | ||
Expected annual dividend yield | 0% | ||
Expected option term (years) | 5 - 6 | ||
Expected forfeiture rate | 1.3% - 8.8% | ||
Grant date fair value per share | $ | 2.97 - $6.31 |
For stock options, the Company recognizes share-based compensation net of estimated forfeitures and revises the estimates in the subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from the estimates. Forfeiture rates are estimated based on historical experience as well as expected future behavior.

13. Warrants and Options Derivative Liabilities
Warrants and Options Issued in Private Placements
The Company issued warrants and compensatory options in connection with private placements completed in December 2013 and September 2014. These warrants and options have exercise prices denominated in Canadian dollars and as such may not be considered indexed to our stock in accordance with ASC 815-40-15-7I. Hence, these warrants and options are classified as liabilities under the caption Warrants and Options Derivative Liability and recorded at estimated fair value at each reporting date, computed using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Changes in the liability from period to period are recorded in the Statements of Operations under the caption Change in fair value of warrants and options liability.
The estimated fair values of warrants and options accounted for as liabilities were determined on the date of the private placements and at each balance sheet date following using the Black Scholes pricing model with the following inputs:
September 30, 2015 | December 31, 2014 | |||||
Risk free interest rate | 0.11% - 0.64% | 0.13% - 0.67% | ||||

Expected volatility | 71% - 89% | 73% - 146% | ||||
Expected dividend yeild | 0% | 0% |
The changes in fair value of the warrants and options liability during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 were as follows:

Options Issued to Non-Employees
As discussed in Note 11, the Company has issued options to professionals providing services to the organization. These professionals do not meet the definition of an employee under U.S. GAAP. At September 30, 2015, there were 650,000 options issued and outstanding to these non-employees.
Under U.S. GAAP, the value of these option awards is determined at the performance completion date (e.g. vesting date). The Company recognizes expense for such estimated total value of the awards during the period from their issuance until performance completion since the professional services are being rendered during this time. The total expense recognized is adjusted to the final value of the award as determined on the performance completion date.
The estimated and final values of the non-employee option awards are determined using the Black Scholes pricing model with the following inputs:
September 30, 2015 | December 31, 2014 | |||||
Risk free interest rate | 1.37% - 1.56% | 0.67% - 2.00% | ||||
Expected life in years | 5 - 6 | 2 - 6 | ||||
Expected volatility | 113% - 115% | 113% - 127% | ||||
Expected dividend yield | 0% | 0% |
The Company recorded expense for non-employee stock options of $1.1 and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2015, respectively and $2.8 million and $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
After the performance completion date, options issued to non-employees will become subject to ASC 815. Under U.S. GAAP, such options may not be considered indexed to our stock in accordance with ASC 815-40-15-7I because they have exercise prices denominated in Canadian dollars. Hence, these will be classified as derivative liabilities under the caption Warrant and Option Liabilities and recorded at estimated fair value at each reporting date, computed using the Black-Scholes valuation method. Changes in the liability from period to period will be recorded in the Statements of Operations under the caption Change in fair value of warrant and option liabilities. At September 30, 2015, the performance completion date was reached for 333,333 non-employee options. Accordingly, the Company reclassified $1.5 million from equity to liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 for the value of the options at the performance completion date. At September 30, 2015, these options had increased in value to $1.6 million. The change in value of these options totaling $64 thousand has been recognized in earnings.
14. Income Taxes
The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Page 28 of 54 |
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefit through future taxable profits is probable. The Company provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward period.
The Company applies recognition thresholds and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return as it relates to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. In addition, it is the Companys policy to recognize interest accrued and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized benefits as income tax expense in its consolidated statement of operations.

The Company created the Marketing & Factoring operation segment in December 2014 following the acquisition of Athas. Prior to the acquisition of Athas, the Company operated under one operating segment and therefore, has not presented a prior period comparison of segment information.
16. Litigation
In the normal course of our business, we are subject to legal proceedings brought by or against us and our subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to these actions will not materially impact the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
Elite Ambulatory Surgery Centers, LLC (Elite) filed suit against Athas Health, LLC (Athas) and Nobilis Health Corp. in Harris County Texas in early 2015. The lawsuit alleged that our acquisition of Athas caused Athas to violate an exclusive marketing services between itself and Elite, and also caused Athas to violate a non-competition covenant contained in the operating agreements of Elite-affiliate entities in which Athas was an equity owner. As of September 30, 2015 parties to the Elite Litigation are in settlement discussions. The Company currently maintains a revenue of $0.4 million for potential exposure, which we consider adequate.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) and the documents that are incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Canadian and United States securities laws, including the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan” or “continue.” These forward-looking statements are based on current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors which could significantly affect current plans and expectations and our future financial condition and results. These factors, which could cause actual results, performance and achievements to differ materially from those anticipated, include, but are not limited to:
- the risk that we may face challenges managing our new Marketing Segment and may not realize anticipated benefits;
- our ability to successfully maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, including the impact of material weaknesses identified by management and our ability to remediate such control deficiencies;
- our ability to implement our business strategy, manage the growth in our business, and integrate acquired businesses;
- the risk of litigation and investigations, and liability claims for damages and other expenses not covered by insurance;
- the risk that payments from third-party payers, including government healthcare programs, may decrease or not increase as costs increase;
- adverse developments affecting the medical practices of our physician limited partners;
- our ability to maintain favorable relations with our physician limited partners;
- our ability to grow revenues by increasing case and procedure volume while maintaining profitability at the Nobilis Facilities;
- failure to timely or accurately bill for services;
- our ability to compete for physician partners, patients and strategic relationships;
- the risk of changes in patient volume and patient mix;
- the risk that laws and regulations that regulate payments for medical services made by government healthcare programs could cause our revenues to decrease;
- the risk that contracts are cancelled or not renewed or that we are not able to enter into additional contracts under terms that are acceptable to us; and
- the risk of potential decreases in our reimbursement rates.
The foregoing are significant factors we think could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected results. However, there could be additional factors besides those listed herein that also could affect us in an adverse manner.
You should read this Quarterly Report completely and with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in this Quarterly Report or our other disclosures because current plans, anticipated actions, and future financial conditions and results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Nobilis.

Executive Overview
Prior to December 1, 2014, our business was solely the ownership, operation and management of outpatient surgery centers and surgical hospitals (the “Medical Services Segment”). On December 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Athas Health, LLC (“Athas”) in a cash and stock transaction. The acquisition of Athas added marketing services as a stand-alone business line, which is now a separate reportable business segment (the “Marketing Segment”). In addition to providing services to third parties, we provide marketing services provider to our own healthcare facilities, which allows us to operate those facilities in many instances with few, if any, physician partners.
As a result of the Athas acquisition, our operations now consist primarily of two divisions, Medical Services Segment and the Marketing Services Segment.
Medical Services Overview
We own and manage eight healthcare facilities (the “Nobilis Facilities”) in Texas and Arizona; three hospitals (the “Nobilis Hospitals”) and five ambulatory surgery centers, referred to as the “Nobilis ASCs” of which three are located in Houston, Texas, one in Dallas, Texas and one in Scottsdale, Arizona. The Nobilis ASCs consist of Northstar Healthcare Surgery Center- Houston, Kirby Surgical Center, Microsurgery Institute of Dallas, Northstar Healthcare Surgery Center Scottsdale and First Nobilis Surgery Center. The Nobilis Hospitals consist of First Nobilis Hospital, Hermann Drive Surgical Hospital and Plano Surgical Hospital. The Nobilis Facilities are each licensed in the state where they are located and provide surgical procedures in a limited number of clinical specialties, which enables them to develop routines, procedures and protocols to maximize operating efficiency and productivity while offering an enhanced healthcare experience for both physicians and patients. The Nobilis Facilities focus on certain clinical specialties, including orthopedic surgery, podiatric surgery, ENT, pain management, gastro- intestinal, gynecology, and general surgery. The Nobilis ASCs do not offer the full range of services typically found in traditional hospitals, allowing the Nobilis ASCs to operate with lower operating expenses. The Nobilis Hospitals do offer the services typically found in traditional hospitals and, as a result, have ability to take on more complex cases and cases that may require an overnight stay. We earn revenue in our Medical Services Segment from the facility fees or technical fees charged to third party payers or to patients for the services rendered at the Nobilis Facilities.
Page 31 of 54 |
Marketing Services Overview
Our Marketing Services segment provides marketing services, patient education services and patient care co-ordination management services to the Nobilis Facilities, to third party facilities in states where we currently do not operate, and to physicians. We market several minimally-invasive medical procedures and brands, which include:
- AccuraScope® procedures: minimally invasive laser spine procedures
- Omega procedure: a surgical procedure for patients with migraine pain,
- NueStep procedure: a surgical procedure designed to treat pain in the foot, ankle and leg
- Evolve Weight Loss Experts: promotion of weight loss procedures
- MIRI: promotion of womens health related procedures
We do not directly provide medical services to patients; rather, we identify candidates for our branded procedures, educate these potential patients about the relevant procedure and directs those patients to affiliated physicians who diagnosis and treat those patients at affiliated facilities. Through our Marketing Services segment, we have contractual relationships with facilities and physicians in several states.
We earn service fees from our partner facilities that, depending on the laws of the state in which a partner facility is located, are either charged as a flat monthly fee or are calculated based on a portion of the facility fee revenue generated by the partner facility for a given procedure.
Our revenues from physician-related services are, depending on the laws of the state in which a partner-physician practices, either earned directly from professional fees or through the purchase of accounts receivable. In Texas, we engage physicians through Nobilis Health Network, Inc., an entity exempt from Texas corporate practice of medicine laws that directly earns professional fees for partner-physician services and, in turn, pay partner-physicians a reasonable fee for rendering those professional services. In other states, we manage our partner-physicians practices and purchase the accounts receivable of those practices through accounts receivable purchase agreements.
Operating Environment
The Medical Service segment depends primarily upon third-party reimbursement from private insurers to pay for substantially all of the services rendered to our patients. The majority of the revenues attributable to the Medical Services Segment are from reimbursement to the Nobilis ASCs and Nobilis Hospitals as out-of-network providers. This means that the Nobilis ASC or Nobilis Hospital is not contracted with a major medical insurer as an in-network participant. Participation in such networks offer the benefit of larger patient populations and defined, predictable payment rates. However, the reimbursement to in-network providers is typically far less than that paid to out of network providers. To a far lesser degree Nobilis ASCs and Nobilis Hospitals earn fees from governmental payer programs such as Medicare. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we derived approximately 0.5% and 0.5%, respectively, of our Medical Services Segment net revenues from governmental healthcare programs, primarily Medicare and managed Medicare programs, and the remainder from a wide mix of commercial payers and patient co-pays, coinsurance, and deductibles.
Recent Developments
On November 1, 2015, we completed a joint venture pursuant to which we agreed to own and operate with our joint venture partners an Arizona licensed specialty hospital, Scottsdale Liberty Hospital (the Hospital) located in Scottsdale, Arizona (collectively, the Joint Venture). Our contribution to the joint venture was approximately $3.2 million in exchange for a 60% interest in Perimeter Road Surgical Hospital, LLC (Perimeter Road), an Arizona limited liability company formed to operate the Hospital. Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Perimeter Road will assume certain liabilities one of the joint venture partners, SH Operating, LLC, which the parties estimate will total approximately $3.9 million. Further, the Joint Venture contemplates that we extend a line of credit to Perimeter Road in an amount up to $4.5 million in a manner consistent with our obligations under the credit agreement with GE Capital Corporation or, in the alternative, assist in establishing a commercial line of credit for Perimeter Road.

The results of operations for Perimeter Road are not included in financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. See Part 1, Item 1 -- Note 18 Subsequent Events in our accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Joint Venture.
Revenue Model and Case Mix
Revenues earned by the
Nobilis Facilities vary depending on the procedures performed. For every medical
procedure performed there are usually three separately invoiced patient
billings:
-
the surgical center fee for the use of infrastructure, surgical equipment, nursing staff, non-surgical professional services, supplies and other support services, which is earned by the Nobilis Facilities;
-
the professional fee, which is separately earned, billed and collected by the physician performing the procedure, separate and apart from the fees charged by the Nobilis Facilities; and
-
the anesthesiology fee, which is separately earned, billed and collected by the anesthesia provider, separate and apart from the fees charged by the Nobilis Facilities and the physicians.
Overall revenue depends on procedure volume, case mix and payment rates of the respective payers.
The following table sets out the net patient service revenues, the number of procedures performed and the net patient service revenue per case at each of the Nobilis Facilities for nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Same Store, Organic, and New Facility Growth
In certain instances in this MD&A, we analyze growth and trends by bifurcating our business into same center facilities and new facilities. Same center facilities can be defined as any facility that has been acquired as of January 1, 2014. All other facilities are considered to be new facilities until the following year.
Seasonality of the Business
The surgical segment of the healthcare industry tends to be impacted by seasonality due to the nature of most benefit plans resetting on a calendar year basis. As patients utilize and reduce their remaining deductible throughout the year, surgical ASCs and hospitals typically see a ramp in volume throughout the year with the biggest impact coming in the 4th quarter.
Page 33 of 54 |
The revenues recognized by Nobilis for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 represented 53% of the 2014 annual revenues. By comparison, the revenues recognized by Nobilis for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 represents 59% of 2015 annual revenue using the guidance issued by Nobilis for anticipated 4th quarter 2015 revenue. Approximately 35% - 40% of annual revenues have historically been recognized in the 4th quarter.
Three months ended September 30, 2015
The Nobilis Facilities focus on a limited number of high-volume, non-emergency procedures, some of which are billed on an out of network basis. Billing on an out of network basis means that we bill to entities not participating in the health insurance companies' ("Third Party Payers") provider networks, which negotiate discounted fees with providers and facilities in return for access to the patient populations covered by those Third Party Payers. The case mix at each Nobilis Facility is a function of the clinical specialties of the physicians on the medical staff and the equipment and infrastructure at each facility. The Nobilis Facilities intend to continue to refine their case mix as opportunities arise. The following table sets forth the combined number of cases and procedures by medical specialty performed for three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Note:
The tables listed above are exclusive of ancillary services which include neuromonitoring, surgical assist, and anesthesia services.
A procedure is defined as the actual surgery or surgeries that are performed on the date of service for each patient (case). Each case typically includes numerous procedures. We calculated the total number of procedures performed on a case, regardless of the fact that the same procedure may have been performed numerous times. These tables refer to all cases and procedures performed, regardless of their contribution to net patient service revenue.
Our total cases performed for the three months ended September 30, 2015, were 4,418, representing a total increase of 2,769 cases, or 167.9%, from the 1,649 cases in the same period in 2014. Cases at our same center facilities were 2,404, representing 755 of the total increase. The consolidated marketing programs are attributable to 864 of the increase, with 367 cases reported under the Marketing segment, and the remaining under the Medical Services segment. Cases generated by new facilities during the reporting period are attributable to 1,647 of the increase. The increase in both same facility and new facility is a result of many factors including expanding our marketing programs, recruiting new physicians, and acquiring new facilities.
Our procedure volume for the three months ended September 30, 2015, increased by 78.2% to 9,634 from 5,407 during the prior corresponding period. This large variance is strictly driven from larger overall case volumes due to the addition of acquired centers in comparison to the same period in 2014. Since case reimbursement is based on case type, an increase or decrease in the number of procedures per case has no effect on our reimbursement and net patient service revenue per case. Relative values associated with individual procedures help determine time allocation, difficulty of the procedure, associated costs, and appropriate reimbursement.
We receive payments for surgical procedures and related services from private health insurance plans, workers compensation, directly from patients and from government payer plans. A substantial portion of net patient service revenues generated by the Nobilis Facilities is based on payments received from private (non-government) insurance plans. We receive a relatively small amount of revenue from Medicare or Medicaid procedures. We also receive a relatively small portion of revenue directly from uninsured patients, who pay out of pocket for the services they receive. Insured patients are responsible for services not covered by their health insurance plans, and for deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance obligations under their plans. The amount of these deductibles, co-payments and coinsurance obligations has increased in recent years but does not represent a material component of the revenue generated by the Nobilis Facilities. The surgical center fees of the Nobilis Facilities are generated by our physician limited partners and the other physicians who use the Nobilis Facilities to provide services. The surgical center fees are billed and collected directly by the Nobilis Facilities.
Patient and net professional fees and contracted marketing revenues are reported as the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party Payers, and others for services rendered. Revenue is recognized upon the performance of the patient service. The amounts that we actually collect from third-party Payers, including private insurers, may vary even for identical procedures performed. An additional factor in the determination of net patient service revenue is our payer mix, as between private health insurance plans, workers compensation, directly from patients and from government payer plans. We review and evaluate historical collections and payment data, payer mix and current economic conditions on a periodic basis and adjust the estimated collections as a percentage of gross billings, which we use to determine net patient service revenue, as required based on final settlements and collections.

Consolidated Revenues
Our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $52.5 million, an increase of $35.3 million or 205.2%, compared to $17.2 million from the prior corresponding period. The Marketing segment accounted for $6.3 million of the increase. The Medical Services segment increased by $29.0 million, or 168.6%, compared to $17.2 million from the prior corresponding period. Same center facilities represented an increase of $1.8 million for the three month period, while new facilities attributed the difference of $27.2 million for a consolidated increase in revenues.
Operating Salaries
Operating salaries and benefits for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $10.3 million, an increase of $7.3 million, or 243.3%, from $3.0 million the prior corresponding period. The Marketing segment accounted for $2.1 million of the increase while the Medical Services segment increased by $5.2 million, or 173.3% . Staffing costs at newly acquired facilities accounted for $5.0 million of the Medical Services segments increase. Same center facilities totaled $2.4 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 9.1%, from $2.2 million the prior corresponding period. Operating salaries and benefits as a percent of revenues were 19.5% compared to 17.2% in the prior corresponding period. The increase was a result of the higher staffing needs at newly acquired hospitals.

Medical Supplies
Drugs and medical supplies expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $8.1 million, an increase of $5.8 million or 252.2% from $2.3 million the prior corresponding period. Medical supplies costs at newly acquired facilities accounted for $4.8 million of the increase with the remaining $1.0 million attributable to same center growth. Drugs and medical supplies as a percent of revenues increased to 15.5% from 13.2% from the prior corresponding period due to lower operating margins at a newly acquired hospital as well as an overall increase in higher acuity cases which generally are more expensive to cover.
Operating General and Administrative
Our operating general and administrative expense for three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $21.0 million, an increase of $14.8 million, or 238.7%, from $6.2 million the prior corresponding period. The Marketing Segment contributed to $2.8 million of the increase which primarily consists of advertising expense. The remaining $12.0 million increase is due to an increase in marketing expenses, physician contracting, general infrastructure development, such as rent, telecommunication, travel, and consulting, and an increase in operations associated with the newly acquired and same store medical services facilities. Newly acquired facilities contributed to $2.0 million of the increase and same store facilities contributed $0.6 million of the increase. Marketing expenses allocated to the Medical Services segment increased by $6.8 million to $7.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015, from $0.5 million for the corresponding period in 2014. The increase in marketing expenses is related to our strategic growth initiatives of growing our bariatric, spine, migraine, podiatry and gynecological brands. For the development of the marketing programs, the Company enters into independent contractor agreements with physicians to provide services to the Company including administrative, management and marketing services. This expense increased by $0.7 million to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $1.3 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Expenses related to general infrastructure development increased by $1.6 million to $2.4 million in 2015 from $0.8 million in 2014.
In addition, operating general and administrative expenses contained revenue cycle management expenses. From time to time, we transfer to third parties certain of our accounts receivable payments on a non-recourse basis in return for advancement on payment to achieve a faster cash collection. The advancement payment varies by specialty and on average represents between 20% and 50% of the amounts transferred. We do not have any other relationship with third parties of this nature other than the vendor relationship described herein. For three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we received advancement payments of $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. During the same period, we transferred $1.3 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of receivables, net of advancement payment, representing an increase in revenue cycle management expenses of $0.3 million.
Bad Debt Expense
Bad Debt Expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $0.9 million, an increase of the same amount compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The Company recorded bad debt expenses of $0.9 million due to a medical center in Dallas, Texas that filed Chapter 11 in November 2015.
Depreciation
Depreciation for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $1.5 million, an increase of $1.2 million or 400.0% from $0.3 million the prior corresponding period. This increase is primarily due to an increase in property and equipment from newly acquired facilities.
Corporate General and Administrative
In total, corporate costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $7.3 million, representing an increase of $5.7 million or 356.3% from $1.6 million the prior corresponding period. The increase was primarily attributable to additional corporate staff and legal expenses related to mergers and acquisitions, and non-cash compensation expense. Corporate salaries and benefits had an increase of $0.9 million to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.6 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Legal expenses increased by $0.3 million to $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.2 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Non-cash compensation increased by $2.8 million to $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.2 million for the corresponding period in 2014. We present corporate costs as a separate section from the operating expenses of the revenue generating facilities to illustrate our operational efficiency.
Other Expense (Income)
The Company recognized $6.4 million of income for the change in the value of warrant and option liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2015 (including the effect of additional issuances and exercises of such instruments).

Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests are based on ownership percentages in the Nobilis Facilities that are owned by third parties.
Nine months ended September 30, 2015
The Nobilis Facilities focus on a limited number of high-volume, non-emergency procedures, some of which are billed on an out of network basis. The case mix at each Nobilis Facility is a function of the clinical specialties of the physicians on the medical staff and the equipment and infrastructure at each facility. The Nobilis Facilities intend to continue to refine their case mix as opportunities arise. The following table sets forth the combined number of cases and procedures by medical specialty performed for nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Note:
The tables listed above are exclusive of ancillary services which include neuromonitoring, surgical assist, and anesthesia services.
A procedure is defined as the actual surgery or surgeries that are performed on the date of service for each patient (case). Each case typically includes numerous procedures. In Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2014 Annual Report, we provided the number of unique procedures per case as the total number of procedures during the period (i.e. a patient may have had three different procedures performed, however, one of the three procedures might have been performed numerous times during the case). In this Quarterly Report, we calculated the total number of procedures performed on a case, regardless of the fact that the same procedure may have been performed numerous times. These tables refer to all cases and procedures performed, regardless of their contribution to net patient service revenue.
Our total cases performed for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, were 12,549, representing a total increase of 7,760 cases, or 162.0%, from the 4,789 cases in the same period in 2014. Cases at same center facilities were 7,523, representing 2,734 of the total increase. The consolidated marketing programs are attributable to 2,435 of the increase, with 990 cases reported under the Marketing segment, and the remaining under the Medical Services segment. Cases generated by new facilities during the reporting period are attributable to 4,036 of the increase. Case volume primarily increased under the specialties of pain management, musculoskeletal interventions, spine and bariatric surgeries.
Our procedure volume for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, increased by 92.3% to 30,439 from 15,825 during the prior corresponding period. This large variance is strictly driven from larger overall case volumes due to the addition of acquired centers in comparison to the same period in 2014. Since case reimbursement is based on case type, an increase or decrease in the number of procedures per case has no effect on our reimbursement and net patient service revenue per case. Relative values associated with individual procedures help determine time allocation, difficulty of the procedure, associated costs, and appropriate reimbursement.
We receive payments for surgical procedures and related services from private health insurance plans, workers compensation, directly from patients and from government payer plans. A substantial portion of net patient service revenues generated by the Nobilis Facilities is based on payments received from private (non-government) insurance plans. We receive a relatively small amount of revenue from Medicare or Medicaid procedures. We also receive a relatively small portion of revenue directly from uninsured patients, who pay out of pocket for the services they receive. Insured patients are responsible for services not covered by their health insurance plans, and for deductibles, co-payments and co-insurance obligations under their plans. The amount of these deductibles, co-payments and coinsurance obligations has increased in recent years but does not represent a material component of the revenue generated by the Nobilis Facilities. The surgical center fees of the Nobilis Facilities are generated by our physician limited partners and the other physicians who use the Nobilis Facilities to provide services. The surgical center fees are billed and collected directly by the Nobilis Facilities.
Patient and net professional fees and contracted marketing revenues are reported as the estimated net realizable amounts from patients, third-party payers, and others for services rendered. Revenue is recognized upon the performance of the patient service. The amounts that we actually collect from third-party payers, including private insurers, may vary even for identical procedures performed. An additional factor in the determination of net patient service revenue is our payer mix, as between private health insurance plans, workers compensation, directly from patients and from government payer plans. We review and evaluate historical collections and payment data, payer mix and current economic conditions on a periodic basis and adjust the estimated collections as a percentage of gross billings, which we use to determine net patient service revenue, as required based on final settlements and collections.

Consolidated Revenues
Our total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $139.2 million, an increase of $94.8 million or 213.5%, compared to $44.4 million from the prior corresponding period. The Marketing segment accounted for $15.6 million of the increase, while the Medical Services segment increased by $79.2 million, or 178.4%, compared to $44.4 million from the prior corresponding period. Same center facilities growth represented $16.2 million of the nine month period increase, while the remaining $63.0 million is attributable to newly acquired facilities.
Operating Salaries
Operating salaries and benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $26.9 million, an increase of $20.0 million or 289.9%, from $6.9 million the prior corresponding period. The Marketing segment accounted for $6.5 million of the increase while the Medical Services segment increased by $13.5 million, or 195.7%. Staffing costs at newly acquired facilities accounted for $12.0 million of the Medical Services segments increase. The remaining $1.5 million increase is attributable to additional staffing at same center facilities driven by increased case volumes. Operating salaries and benefits as a percent of revenues were 19.3% compared to 15.5% in the prior corresponding period. The increase was a result of the higher staffing needs at newly acquired hospitals

Medical supplies
Drugs and medical supplies expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $21.0 million, an increase of $14.8 million or 238.7% from $6.2 million the prior corresponding period. Medical supplies costs at newly acquired facilities accounted for $11.8 million of the increase with the remaining $3.0 million attributable to same center growth. Drugs and medical supplies as a percent of revenues increased to 15.1% from 14.0% from the prior corresponding period due to lower operating margins at a newly acquired hospital.
Operating General and Administrative
Our operating general and administrative expense for nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $54.6 million, an increase of $36.5 million, or 201.7%, from $18.1 million the prior corresponding period. The Marketing Segment contributed to $4.6 million of the increase. The remainder of the $31.9 million increase is due to an increase in marketing expenses, physician contracting, general infrastructure development, such as rent telecommunication, travel, and consulting, and an increase in operations associated with the newly acquired and same store medical services facilities. Newly acquired facilities contributed to $9.0 million of the increase and same store facilities contributed to $0.6 million of the increase. Marketing expenses allocated to the Medical Services segment increased by $16.5 million to $19.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, from $2.5 million for the corresponding period in 2014. The increase in marketing expenses is related to our purchase of Athas in December 2014, and the associate creation of our Marketing business segment, and strategic growth initiatives of growing our bariatric, spine, podiatry and gynecological brands. For the development of the marketing programs, the Company enters into independent contractor agreements with physicians to provide services to the Company including administrative, management and marketing services. This expense increased by $2.1 million to $5.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $3.0 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Expenses related to general infrastructure development increased by $3.3 million to $5.4 million in 2015 from $2.1 million in 2014.
In addition, our operating general and administrative expenses contained revenue cycle management expenses. From time to time, we transfer to third parties certain of our accounts receivable payments on a non-recourse basis in return for advancement on payment to achieve a faster cash collection. The advancement payment varies by specialty and on average represents between 20% and 50% of the amounts transferred. We do not have any other relationship with third parties of this nature other than the vendor relationship described herein. For nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 we received advancement payments of $1.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During each respective periods, we transferred $5.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively, of receivables, net of advancement payment.
Bad Debt Expense
Bad Debt Expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $1.1 million, an increase of the same amount compared to the corresponding period in 2014. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $0.9 million due to a medical center in Dallas, Texas that filed Chapter 11 in November 2015.
Depreciation
Depreciation for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $3.1 million, an increase of $2.2 million or 244.4% from $0.9 million the prior corresponding period. This increase is primarily due to an increase in property and equipment from newly acquired facilities.
Corporate General and Administrative
In total, corporate costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $23.1 million, representing an increase of $18.6 million or 413.3% from $4.5 million the prior corresponding period. The increase was primarily attributable to additional corporate staff and legal expenses related to mergers and acquisitions, and non-cash compensation. Corporate salaries and benefits increased by $1.8 million to $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $1.7 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Legal expenses increased by $0.9 million to $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.8 million for the corresponding period in 2014. Non-cash compensation increased by $12.8 million to $13.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 from $0.4 million for the corresponding period in 2014. The increase in non-cash compensation is attributable to an accelerated vesting of senior executive share-based compensation related to a change of Company positions and additional stock based compensation granted to the company’s Chief Executive Officer. We present corporate costs as a separate section from the operating expenses of the revenue generating facilities to illustrate our operational efficiency.
Other Expense (Income)
The Company recognized $4.7 million of income for the change in the value of warrant and option liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 (including the effect of additional issuances and exercises of such instruments).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded other income of $1.5 million, approximately $1.0 million of which was attributable to the June 2015 Athas settlement as was previously disclosed in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A filed on January 12, 2016.

Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to non-controlling interests are based on ownership percentages in the Nobilis Facilities that are owned by third parties.
Balance Sheet
The Company experienced material variances in certain balance sheet accounts as discussed herein.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable increased from $40.5 million as of December 31, 2014 to $57.1 million as of September 30, 2015. The increase is a result of case volume increasing from 4,789 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to 12,549 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets did not change significantly from December 31, 2014 to September 30, 2015.
Goodwill
Goodwill increased due to the following activities from December 31, 2014 through September 30, 2015: ($0.7) million for deconsolidation of certain imaging centers that were previously controlled by the Company; $10.9 million for acquisition of a Houston hospital; $1.4 million for acquisition of nerve monitoring company. The goodwill account increased to $33.2 million as of September 30, 2015.
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Condition
We are dependent upon cash generated from operating activities of the Nobilis Facilities, which are the major source of financing for our operations, growth initiatives, acquisitions and for meeting our contractual obligations. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operating activities of the Nobilis Facilities, available cash and cash equivalents, and available borrowings under our term loan with HFS (the Term Loan) described in Note 9 Lines of Credit. We expect to be able to fund our operating activities for the ensuing twelve months with cash flows generated from our operations, available cash and cash equivalents, financing activities and access to the Term Loan.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we experienced a decrease in operating cash flows of approximately -$1.7 million.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had consolidated net working capital of $55.8 million compared to $22.3 million as of December 31, 2014. The increase is primarily due to increased cash related to a private placement (as described below), and increased accounts receivables related to increased case volumes. Total accounts receivable were $57.1 million with accounts payables and accrued liabilities totaling $26.4 million. Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $21.1 million and $7.6 million, respectively. Medical supplies at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $3.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
We have a $25 million debt financing facility with GE Capital, Healthcare Financial Services (GE). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement and ancillary agreements (collectively, the Loan Agreement), the term loan bears interest at a rate of 4% plus LIBOR per annum and amortizes over 20 years with required quarterly payments of principal and interest until the loan matures in March 2020. The revolving loan also bears interest at a rate of 4% plus LIBOR per annum and amounts borrowed under the revolver may be repaid and re-borrowed periodically with a maturity of March 2020. The credit facility is collateralized by the accounts receivable and physical equipment of all 100% owned subsidiaries as well as the Companys ownership interest in all less-than-wholly owned subsidiaries. As of September 30, 2015, the Company is in compliance with all debt covenants.
In May 2015, the Company issued, through a private placement agreement, 7,847,668 Units, at a price of Cdn$9.00 per Unit. Each Unit is comprised of one treasury unit (a Treasury Unit) and one-half of one common share from Donald L. Kramer, Healthcare Ventures, Ltd (a company wholly owned by Dr. Kramer), Harry Fleming or from treasury. Each Treasury Unit is comprised of one-half of one common share of the Company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant exercisable for one additional share at a price of Cdn$11.50. Through the private placement, the Company raised proceeds of $28.4 million, net of offering costs and commissions of $1.9 million.
Critical Accounting Policies
A summary of significant accounting policies is included in our Form 10-K/A. Our critical accounting policies are further described under the caption Critical Accounting Policies in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K/A. There have been no changes in the nature of our critical accounting policies or the application of those policies since December 31, 2014.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing, investing and cash management activities. We do not, however, hold or issue financial instruments or derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. At September 30, 2015, the following components of our Loan Agreement bears interest at variable rates at specified margins above either the agent banks alternate base rate or the LIBOR rate: (i) a $20 million, 5-year term loan; and (ii) a $5 million, 5-year revolving credit facility.
Although changes in the alternate base rate or the LIBOR rate would affect the cost of funds borrowed in the future, we believe the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near-term changes in interest rates on our remaining variable rate debt or our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows would not be material. Holding other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a 0.125% increase in current interest rates would have no estimated impact on pre-tax earnings and cash flows for the next twelve month period given the 0.70215% LIBOR floor that exists in our Loan Agreement.
We currently believe we have adequate liquidity to fund operations during the near term through the generation of operating cash flows, cash on hand and access to our senior secured revolving credit facility provided under the Loan Agreement. Our ability to borrow funds under Loan Agreement is subject to, among other things, the financial viability of the participating financial institutions. While we do not anticipate any of our current lenders defaulting on their obligations, we are unable to provide assurance that any particular lender will not default at a future date.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
The Company holds cash balances in both U.S. and Canadian dollars. We transact most of our business in U.S. and Canadian dollars. As a result, currency exchange fluctuations may impact our operating costs. We do not manage our foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of financial or derivative instruments, forward contracts or hedging activities.
In general, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar will positively impact our expenses transacted in Canadian dollars. Conversely, any weakening of the U.S dollar will increase our expenses transacted in Canadian dollars. We do not believe that any weakening of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar will have an adverse material effect on our operations.
Interest Rate Risk
The Companys investment policy for its cash and cash equivalents is focused on the preservation of capital and supporting the liquidity requirements of the Company. The Companys interest earned on its cash balances is impacted on the fluctuations of U.S. and Canadian interest rates. We do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. We do not believe that interest rate fluctuations will have any effect on our operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, consisting of controls and other procedures designed to give reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding such required disclosure.
Our CEO and our CFO have concluded that our Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2015 as a result of identified material weaknesses in the Companys internal control discussed below.
The following control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses in connection with the preparation of our financial statements as of September 30, 2015 were identified:
|
We did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of U.S. GAAP necessary to support our operations, resulting in a restatement of previously issued financial statements as discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements; and |
|
We did not apply the appropriate level of review and oversight to the accounting and disclosure for significant, infrequently occurring transactions such as for business combinations and private placements. |
Page 51 of 54 |
Remediation Plan
In light of these material weaknesses, in preparing our financial statements as of and for the periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we performed additional analyses and procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Our management has been actively engaged in remediation efforts to address the material weaknesses, as well as other identified areas of risk. These remediation efforts, outlined below, are intended to address the identified material weaknesses and to enhance our overall control environment.
|
On July 9, 2015, we appointed Mr. Kenny Klein to serve as the Company's Chief Financial Officer. Our previous CFO, assumed other responsibilities with our accounting and finance organization. |
|
During the third quarter of 2015, the Company strengthened its accounting and financial reporting group with the addition of five new professionals with knowledge, experience, and training in the application of U.S. GAAP to our accounting and finance organization. This group is complemented by the engagement during the fourth quarter of 2015 of third-party accounting specialists who will assist us with significant, infrequently occurring transactions. |
|
We are currently reviewing and implementing remediation steps providing for more detailed supervisory review processes as part of our financial statement close process. |
Our executive management team, together with our Board of Directors, is committed to achieving and maintaining a strong control environment, high ethical standards, and financial reporting integrity.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above with the respect to the identified material weakness regarding personnel and oversight of significant, infrequently occurring tranasctions.
