TABLE OF CONTENTS

IMPORTANT INTRODUCTORY INFORMATION

In this prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires, we use the terms “MTBC,” “we,” “us,” “the company” and “our” to refer to Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Medical Transcription Billing Company (Private) Limited, a private limited company organized under the laws of Pakistan, and does not include any of the following companies, which we refer to as the “Target Sellers,” whose businesses we will acquire upon the close of this offering:

the subsidiaries of Omni Medical Billing Services, LLC (which we collectively refer to as “Omni”)
Practicare Medical Management, Inc. (“Practicare”)
the subsidiaries of CastleRock Solutions, Inc. (which we collectively refer to as “CastleRock”)

Concurrently with the consummation of the offering made by this prospectus, through a series of asset purchases, we will acquire the businesses of the Target Sellers. The aggregate purchase price will amount to approximately $34.7 million (assuming an initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), consisting of cash in the amount of approximately $18.2 million, and 1,750,249 shares of our common stock with a fair value of approximately $17.5 million based on the initial public offering price of the shares sold in this offering. Pursuant to the terms of the respective purchase agreements, the aggregate purchase price we will pay for the assets of each of the Target Sellers will be calculated as a multiple of either 1.5 or 2.0 of the revenue generated by such Target Seller in the most recent four quarters included in this prospectus from its customers that are in good standing as of the closing date. See the “Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” for a discussion of the accounting treatment for our acquisitions.

All of the shares to be issued to the Target Sellers will be deposited into escrow to secure our rights (i) to be indemnified under the purchase agreements, and (ii) to cancel a portion of the shares in the event our revenues from the Target Sellers’ customers in the 12 months following the closing are below specified thresholds. With respect to each Target Seller, 15% of the escrowed shares will be eligible for release six months following the closing. With respect to Omni, an additional 15% of the escrowed shares will be eligible for release nine months following the closing and for all the Target Seller’s, the remaining shares will be eligible for release following the determination of such Target Seller’s revenue in the 12 months following the closing. In addition, 10% of the cash consideration payable for the acquisition of Practicare and 15% of the cash consideration payable for the acquisition of CastleRock will be held in escrow for 120 days following the closing to satisfy indemnification claims we may have during that period.

Unless we close the acquisition of all of the Target Sellers, we will not close any of those acquisitions and we will not close this offering. See “Business — Acquisitions” for further information on our acquisition of the Target Sellers.

Unless otherwise indicated, all share, per share and financial data set forth in this prospectus have not been adjusted to give effect to the closing of the acquisition of the Target Sellers.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information that may be important to you. You should read the more detailed information contained in this prospectus including, but not limited to, the risk factors beginning on page 12.

Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. is a healthcare information technology company that provides a fully integrated suite of proprietary web-based solutions, together with related business services, to healthcare providers practicing in ambulatory care settings. Our integrated Software-as-a-Service (or SaaS) platform helps our customers increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs. In addition to our experienced team in the United States, we employ a highly educated workforce of more than 1,000 people in Pakistan, where we believe labor costs are approximately one-half the cost of comparable India-based employees, thus enabling us to deliver our solutions at competitive prices.

Our flagship offering, PracticePro, empowers healthcare practices with the core software and business services they need to address industry challenges, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“Affordable Care Act”), on one unified SaaS platform. We deliver powerful, integrated and easy-to-use ‘big practice solutions’ to small and medium practices, which enable them to efficiently operate their businesses, manage clinical workflows and receive timely payment for their services. PracticePro includes:

Practice management solutions and related tools, which facilitate the day-to-day operation of a medical practice;
Electronic health records (or EHR), which is easy to use, highly ranked, and allows our customers to reduce paperwork and qualify for government incentives;
Revenue cycle management (or RCM) services, which includes end-to-end medical billing, analytics, and related services; and
Mobile Health (or mHealth) solutions, including smartphone applications that assist patients and healthcare providers in the provision of healthcare services.

As of December 31, 2012, we served approximately 400 practices representing approximately 1,320 providers (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services), practicing in approximately 55 specialties and subspecialties, in 39 states. As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 450 practices representing approximately 1,110 providers, practicing in 50 specialties and subspecialties, in 36 states. Pro forma for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, as of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 950 practices representing approximately 2,110 providers, practicing in approximately 50 specialties and subspecialties, in 40 states. Approximately 98% of the practices we serve consist of one to ten providers, with the majority of the practices we serve being primary care providers. However, our solutions are scalable and are appropriate for larger healthcare practices across a wide range of specialty areas. In fact, our largest customer is a hospital-based group with more than 120 providers.

Our growth strategy includes acquiring smaller revenue cycle management companies and then migrating the customers of those companies to our solutions. The revenue cycle management service industry is highly fragmented, with many local and regional revenue cycle management companies serving small medical practices. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions. We estimate that there are more than 1,500 companies in the United States providing revenue cycle management services and that no one company has more than a 5% share of the market. We further believe that it is becoming increasingly difficult for traditional revenue cycle management companies to meet the growing technology and business service needs of healthcare providers without a significant investment in information technology infrastructure.

In addition, our growth strategy includes strategic partnerships with other industry participants, including electronic health records vendors, in which the vendors refer customers to our services. While we offer our own electronic health records, our strategy includes providing integrated offerings utilizing third party electronic health records while offering customers MTBC’s revenue cycle management, practice management

and mobile health capabilities. Accordingly, upon the completion of this offering, we intend to hire sales and marketing executives to spearhead our customer acquisition initiative, which will include growing existing and developing new strategic partnerships. We believe that these new team members will also be able to successfully leverage the Target Sellers’ network of relationships and our existing network. By devoting greater resources to sales and marketing, we expect that our organic growth will increase more rapidly, as our current organic growth is driven primarily by customer referrals and internet search engine optimization techniques.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, without giving effect to the acquisition of the assets of the Target Sellers, our total revenue was $10.0 million and $10.5 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2012, our net income was $ 117,000 and for the Year ended December 31, 2013, our net loss was ($178,000). For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, our EBITDA was $870,000 and $1,052,000, respectively. Because EBITDA is closely related to our cash flow from operations, management uses EBITDA as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. For information on how we define and calculate EBITDA, and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, see the section titled “— Summary Consolidated Financial — Other Financial Data.”

Pro forma for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, our total revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 was $33.1 million, our net loss was ($5.0 million), and our EBITDA was $2.2 million. The large net loss is due primarily to amortization of intangibles from the acquisition of the Target Sellers, estimated at $8.3 million.

Industry Overview

The modern American healthcare industry is characterized by inefficiencies, waste, complexity, an underutilization of technology and a lack of transparency. According to a recent report issued by the Institute of Medicine, approximately $2.6 trillion was spent in the United States on healthcare in 2011, of which $750 billion was wasteful spending that does not improve the quality of care that patients receive. An April 2012 study cited by Health Affairs, a health policy journal, estimates that between $476 billion and $992 billion of healthcare spending in 2011 was wasted, with a third of that waste being funded by Medicare and Medicaid programs. Healthcare spending in the United States is widely viewed as growing at an unsustainable rate, and policymakers and payers are continuously seeking ways to reduce that growth.

The Affordable Care Act and other recent legislative, regulatory and industry drivers are directed toward addressing many of these challenges. For decades, the U.S. healthcare delivery system has been characterized by a vast cottage industry of small, independent practices functioning in a low-technology fee-for-service environment. Presently, there are more than 500,000 U.S. physicians practicing in ambulatory care settings and it is estimated that approximately 70% of these providers are practicing in groups with 10 or fewer physicians. Recent changes in the industry, including legislative reform and increasing reimbursement complexity, have created significant opportunities for MTBC, as traditional practice tools are not well-suited for the modern medical practice.

Increasingly complex reimbursement processes.  New laws and payer requirements have further complicated insurance reimbursement processes. For example, Medicare, Medicaid and commercial insurances are increasingly requiring proof of adherence to best practices and improved patient health outcomes to support full reimbursement. Moreover, an upcoming shift to a new generation of insurance codes will dramatically increase the complexity associated with selecting appropriate procedure and diagnosis codes needed to support proper claim reimbursement.

Movement toward healthcare information technology.  Since 2011, the Federal government has offered financial incentives to eligible healthcare providers who adopt and meaningfully use electronic health record technology. Beginning in 2015, providers who are not meaningfully using this technology will incur penalties and these penalties will increase every year through 2019. While these incentives and looming penalties have encouraged many providers to adopt and meaningfully use electronic health record software, we believe that most providers are not utilizing an integrated platform that combines practice management, business intelligence, and revenue cycle management. The lack of an integrated platform leaves them ill-equipped to address the multitude of rapidly growing industry challenges.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Shift in Focus to Preventive Care.  In an effort to avoid the negative health effects and increased costs associated with undetected and untreated chronic conditions, the Affordable Care Act requires most health insurance plans to provide co-payment and deductible-free coverage for preventive health services, such as annual well visits. Many believe that this shift in focus will, in the long-term, reduce costs and improve patient health.

Inaccessibility of critical data.  To thrive in the emerging healthcare landscape, healthcare practices need timely information, such as health insurance plan eligibility and coverage details, provider performance and productivity data and clinical and reimbursement benchmarking. However, we believe that most small and medium size practices do not have access to this type of real-time data, business intelligence and analytical tools and thus struggle to efficiently operate their practices and make optimal decisions.

Our Solution

We believe that our fully integrated solutions uniquely address the challenges in the industry, including those presented by the Affordable Care Act. Our solutions dramatically simplify the complexities inherent in the reimbursement process and thereby deliver objectively superior results, such as reduced claim denial rates, improved customer days in accounts receivable, reduced patient no-shows, increased well visit encounters and reimbursement. Our solutions empower our customers with the real-time data they need to be efficient and make better decisions, such as real-time insurance eligibility and deductible details, provider productivity details and payer benchmarking.

Our fully integrated suite of technology and business service solutions is designed to enable healthcare practices to thrive in the midst of a rapidly changing environment in which managing reimbursement, clinical workflows and day-to-day administrative tasks is becoming increasingly complex, costly and time-consuming. Moreover, the standard offering fee for our complete, integrated, end-to-end solution is 5% of a practice’s healthcare-related revenues plus a nominal one-time setup fee, and is among the lowest in the industry.

Our Strategy

Our objective is to become a leading provider of integrated, end-to-end software and business service solutions to healthcare providers practicing in an ambulatory setting. To achieve this objective, we employ the following strategies:

Provide comprehensive practice management, electronic health records, revenue cycle management and mobile health solutions to small and medium size healthcare practices.  We believe that physician practices are in need of an integrated, end-to-end solution, such as the solution that MTBC provides, to manage the different facets of their businesses, from clinical documentation to claim submission and financial reporting.
Provide exceptional customer service.  We realize that our success is tied directly to our customers’ success. Accordingly, a substantial portion of our highly trained and educated workforce is devoted to customer service activities.
Leverage significant cost advantages provided by our skilled offshore workforce.   Our unique business model includes our web-based software and a cost-effective offshore workforce primarily based in Pakistan. We believe that this operating model provides us with significant cost advantages compared to other revenue cycle management companies and it allows us to significantly reduce the operational costs of the companies we acquire.
Pursue strategic acquisitions.  Approximately 30% of our current practices and 43% of our most recent quarter’s revenue were obtained through strategic transactions with regional revenue cycle management companies (before giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers). With most of our acquisition transactions, our goal is to retain the acquired customers over the long-term and migrate those customers to our platform soon after closing. During 2012, we acquired four revenue cycle management companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct revenue cycle management platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. In the quarter ended December 31, 2013, our revenues from these customers was approximately 75% of the revenue generated from these customers in the quarter preceding their

TABLE OF CONTENTS

acquisition. In our most recent acquisition completed on June 30, 2013, we successfully migrated 74% of acquired customers to PracticePro within 180 days of closing, and retained 88% of acquired customers during the first 180 days following the acquisition.
Leverage strategic partnerships.  A portion of our current customers were initially referred to MTBC by one of our existing or former channel partners. We recently entered into new channel partnership agreements with various industry-leading vendors, including another leading electronic health records vendor and a paper-based clinical solution vendor. In conjunction with these partnerships, we help ‘round-out’ our partners’ service offerings, while receiving referrals and sharing a portion of our revenues with these partners.

Our Service Offerings

We offer a suite of fully-integrated, web-based SaaS platform and business services designed for healthcare providers. Our products and services offer healthcare providers a unified solution designed to meet the healthcare industry’s demand for the delivery of cost-efficient, quality care with measureable outcomes. The four primary components of our proprietary web-based suite of services are: (i) practice management applications, (ii) a certified electronic health record solution, (iii) revenue cycle management services and (iv) mobile health applications.

Our flagship product, PracticePro, offers all software components in one seamlessly-integrated, end-to-end solution. Our web-based electronic health records is also available to customers as a stand-alone product. We regularly update our software platform with the goal of staying on the leading edge of industry developments, payer reimbursements trends and new regulations.

Web-based Practice Management Application

Our proprietary, web-based practice management application automates the labor-intensive workflow of a medical office in a unified and streamlined SaaS platform. The various functions of the platform collectively support the entire workflow of the day-to-day operations of a medical office in an intuitive and user-friendly format. For example, our platform provides office staff with real-time insurance details to allow them to more efficiently collect patient payments; its automated appointment reminders reduce patient no-show rates, and scheduling functionality results in increased reimbursable patient well visit appointments. A simple, individual and secure login to our web-based platform gives physicians, other healthcare providers and staff members access to a vast array of real time practice management data which they can access at the office or from any other location where they can access the Internet. Users can customize the “Practice Dashboard” to display only the most useful and relevant information needed to carry out their particular functions. We believe that this streamlined and centralized automated workflow allows providers to focus on delivering quality patient care rather than office administration.

Web-based Electronic Health Records

Our web-based electronic health records solution is one of the less than 90 unique ambulatory electronic health record products that, as of March 1, 2014, has received 2014 Edition ONC-ACB certification as a Complete Ambulatory electronic health records. Moreover, KLAS, a leading independent industry assessor of healthcare information technology products, recently issued its annual electronic health records ranking and MTBC placed number five in our target market of one to ten providers, outperforming most leading electronic health records. A healthcare provider can use our solution to demonstrate “meaningful use” under federal law to earn incentives and avoid penalties. Our web-based electronic health records allows a provider to view all patient information in one online location, thus avoiding the need for numerous charts and records for each patient. Utilizing our web-based electronic health records solution, providers can track patients from their initial appointments; chart clinical data, history, and other personal information; enter and submit claims for medical services; and review and respond to queries for additional information regarding the billing process. Additionally, the electronic health record software delivers a robust document management system to enable providers to transition to paperless environments. The document management function makes available electronic connectivity between practitioners and patients, thereby streamlining patient care coordination and communications.

Revenue Cycle Management and other Technology-driven Business Services

Our proprietary revenue cycle management offering is designed to improve the medical billing reimbursement process, allowing healthcare providers to accelerate and increase collections, reduce errors in submission and streamline workflow to free up practitioners to focus on patient care. Customers using PracticePro will generally see an improvement in their collections, as illustrated by the following:

Our first pass acceptance rate is 98%.
Our first pass resolution rate is 96%.
Our clients’ median days in accounts receivable is 30 days for primary care and 35 days for combined specialties.

These rates are among the most competitive in the industry and compare favorably with the performance of our largest competitor, among others. Our revenue cycle management service employs a proprietary rules-based system designed and constantly updated by our knowledgeable workforce, which screens and scrubs claims prior to submission for payment.

Mobile Health Solutions

The functionality of our cloud-based platform is extended to mobile devices through our integrated suite of mobile health applications. These mobile health applications include physician end-user tools that support, among other things, electronic prescribing, the capture of billing charges in the current medical coding formats, and the creation and secure transfer of clinical audio notes that are converted into text and billing charges. Our patient applications allow patients to access their medical information, securely communicate with their doctors’ office, schedule appointments, request prescription refills, pay balances and check-in for office appointments.

Risk Relating to our Acquisition Strategy

Following our past acquisitions, some acquired customers terminated their relationships with us. These terminations occurred for a variety of reasons, including because of our transition of workflow from local employees previously assigned to their account to our offshore team members; actual or perceived disruptions to customers’ businesses; our migration of customers from their existing practice management software platform to our solution; and the exacerbation of the strain that already existed in some of the customers’ relationships with the acquired companies. For example, following our 2010 acquisition of the customers of Medical Accounting Billing Company, we retained a key employee of the seller to assist us in transitioning the acquired customers to our solution. However, that employee became disabled by an illness soon after closing, becoming incapable of effectively guiding the accounts through the transition. As a result, we eventually lost all of the acquired customers and were required to write-off intangible assets in the amount $126,000 in 2012. In addition, of the eight practices we acquired in our June 2011 acquisition of a small New Jersey-based revenue cycle management company, only two are current customers of ours.

During 2012, we acquired four revenue cycle management companies and successfully migrated a majority of their customers to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. One year after acquisition, the average quarterly revenue generated from the customers acquired in our 2012 acquisitions was 85% of the quarterly revenue generated from these customers in the quarter preceding the respective acquisitions, and for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, our revenue from these customers was 75% of the revenue generated from such customers in the quarter preceding the acquisitions. Approximately 60% of the practices we acquired in those transactions remained our customers as of December 31, 2013. In addition, following our most recent acquisition in June 30, 2013, we successfully migrated 50% of the acquired customers to PracticePro within 90 days of closing and 74% within 180 days, retained 88% of acquired customers after 180 days. Notwithstanding the recent improvement in our migration and retention of acquired customers, we expect to experience customer loss following our acquisition of the Target Sellers and any other future acquisitions for a variety of reasons, including our inability to transition the existing workflow to our off shore infrastructure and the existing strain on customer relationships at the time of acquisition.

We will seek to address the challenges we have experienced in prior acquisitions by working more closely with acquired customers in the future to understand which combination of software and services is

best for their practice. To that end, we plan on retaining a larger portion of the Target Sellers’ existing workforce for a longer period of time than in previous acquisitions, as well as developing integrations with existing software solutions to ensure customer satisfaction and retention.

Other Risks Relating to Our Business

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described in “Risk Factors” beginning on page 12 of this prospectus before making a decision to invest in our common stock. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business financial condition and results of operations would likely be negatively affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock would likely decline, and you may lose part, or all, of your investment. Below is a summary of some of the principal risks we believe we face:

We may be unable to manage our growth effectively and our pro forma results may not be indicative of our future performance.
We operate in a highly competitive industry, and our competitors may be able to compete more efficiently or evolve more rapidly than we do.
We may be unable to implement our strategy of acquiring additional companies and acquisitions may subject us to additional unknown risks.
Future acquisitions may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of indebtedness and increased amortization expense.
The continued success of our business model is heavily dependent upon our operations in Pakistan, and any disruption to those operations will adversely affect us.
We have incurred recent operating losses, and we may not be able to achieve or subsequently maintain our profitability in the future.
Government programs in the United States initiated to accelerate the adoption and utilization of electronic health record solutions may not be effective in changing the behavior of providers or may not be fully implemented or fully funded by the government.
We may need additional capital to fund our operations and finance our growth, and we may not be able to secure such capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Our proprietary software may not operate properly, which could damage our reputation, give rise to claims against us, or divert application of our resources from other purposes, any of which could harm our business and operating results.
We may be unable to protect unauthorized access to our web-based software and servers which store our customers’ information, which could subject us to significant liability and reduce the attractiveness of our services.

We are an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering, the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.0 billion, the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer (this means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds

TABLE OF CONTENTS

$700 million as of the end of the second quarter of that fiscal year), or the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. As an emerging growth company:

We will present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.
We will avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
We will provide less extensive disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements.
We will not require shareholder non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

However, we are choosing to “opt out” of the extended transition periods available under the JOBS Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

(4) To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings. EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense, income tax benefit, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management uses EBITDA as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The following table contains a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

If you purchase our securities, you will assume a high degree of risk. In deciding whether to invest, you should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. Any of the following risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects and cause the value of our securities to decline, which could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Acquisition Strategy

If we do not manage our growth effectively, our revenue, business and operating results may be harmed.

Our strategy is to expand through the acquisition of additional RCM companies and organic growth. Since 2006, we have acquired eight RCM companies and entered into agreements with two additional RCM companies under which we service all of their customers. Our prior acquisitions were on a much smaller scale and may not be indicative of our ability to successfully manage our currently proposed or future acquisitions. Our acquisition of the Target Sellers and any future acquisitions may require greater than anticipated investment of operational and financial resources as we seek to migrate customers of the Target Sellers and any acquired companies to PracticePro. Acquisitions may also require the integration of different software and services, assimilation of new employees, diversion of management and IT resources, increases in administrative costs and other additional costs associated with any debt or equity financings undertaken in connection with such acquisitions. We cannot assure you that any acquisition we undertake will be successful. Future growth will also place additional demands on our customer support, sales, and marketing resources, and may require us to hire and train additional employees. We will need to expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate our growth. The failure to manage our growth effectively will materially and adversely affect our business.

We may be unable to retain customers of the Target Sellers following their acquisition, which may result in a decrease in our revenues and operating results.

Concurrently with the consummation of the offering made by this prospectus, we will acquire the Target Sellers via asset purchase agreements, including approximately 500 healthcare practice customers as of the date of this prospectus. A majority of the customers of the Target Sellers have the right to terminate their practice management, EHR and RCM contracts for any reason at any time upon notice of 90 days or less. These customers may elect to terminate their contracts as a result of our acquisition or to not renew their contracts upon the expiration of their terms. In the past, our failure to retain acquired customers has led to decreases in our revenues. For example, our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $456,000 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, even though we acquired Metro Medical on June 30, 2013 which contributed $1.5 million of revenue in 2013, primarily as a result of our loss of a large customer we previously acquired in 2010, and our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 was ($178,000) compared to net income of $117,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition, of the practices we acquired in the four acquisitions we completed in 2012, approximately 60% were our customers as of December 31, 2013. Our inability to retain customers of the Target Sellers following their acquisition could adversely impact our ability to benefit from those acquisitions and increase our future revenues and operating income.

Our inability to successfully migrate customers of the Target Sellers to our proprietary solutions and services will decrease our profitability.

A major component of our business plan is to migrate most of the customers of the Target Sellers from the existing practice management, EHR and RCM solutions they are using to PracticePro. In our past acquisitions, we experienced customer loss while attempting to migrate customers from their existing practice management software platform to our solution due to the customers’ comfort with their existing software. In particular, following our 2010 acquisition of Medical Accounting Billing Company customers, we retained a key employee of the seller to assist us in transitioning the acquired customers to our solution. However, that employee became disabled by an illness soon after closing, becoming incapable of effectively guiding the accounts through the transition. As a result, we eventually lost all of the acquired customers and were required

12


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

to write-off intangible assets in the amount $126,000 in 2012. In addition, of the eight practices we acquired in our June 2011 acquisition of a small New Jersey-based revenue cycle management company, only two are current customers of ours. However, more recently, we acquired four RCM companies during 2012, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct RCM platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. The migration of customers of the Target Sellers may also entail significant costs and IT resources, and the failure or delay in migrating a significant portion of such customers could occur. Our failure or delay in successfully migrating the customers of the Target Sellers to PracticePro will negatively impact our ability to retain those customers and to assist those practices in increasing collections, thereby reducing our revenue and profitability.

Our pro forma results may not be indicative of our future performance because we may be unable to retain or successfully transition the customers of the Target Sellers.

The customers of the Target Sellers are currently using the practice management, EHR and RCM solutions provided by the Target Sellers. Because we may be unable to retain the customers of the Target Sellers following their acquisition or successfully migrate those customers from the solutions they are currently using to PracticePro, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information in this prospectus may not be indicative of what our operating results and financial condition would have been for the periods presented had the acquisition of the Target Sellers taken place on the dates indicated or of our future financial condition or operating results. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheets included in this prospectus reflect preliminary estimates of the values of assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed, and those values could differ materially once we complete our final valuations of those assets and liabilities.

We may be unable to implement our strategy of acquiring additional RCM companies due to competition.

Except for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, we have no understanding or commitments with respect to any other acquisition as of the date of this prospectus. Although we expect that one or more acquisition opportunities will become available in the future, we may not be able to acquire any additional RCM companies at all or on terms favorable to us. Certain of our larger, better capitalized competitors may seek to acquire some of the RCM companies we may be interested in. Competition for acquisitions would likely increase acquisition prices and result in us having fewer acquisition opportunities.

Acquisitions may subject us to additional unknown risks which may affect our customer retention and cause a reduction in our revenues.

In completing the acquisition of the Target Sellers or any future acquisition, we will rely upon the representations and warranties and indemnities made by the sellers with respect to each acquisition as well as our own due diligence investigation. We cannot assure you that such representations and warranties will be true and correct or that our due diligence will uncover all materially adverse facts relating to the operations and financial condition of the acquired companies or their customers. To the extent that we are required to pay for obligations of an acquired company, or if material misrepresentations exist, we may not realize the expected benefit from such acquisition and we will have overpaid in cash and/or stock for the value received in that acquisition.

Future acquisitions may result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of indebtedness and increased amortization expense.

Future acquisitions may result in dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, the assumption of known and unknown liabilities, the write-off of software development costs and the amortization of expenses related to intangible assets, all of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We structure our acquisitions as asset purchases, which may limit the ability of some of the acquired assets to be transferred to us due to contractual provisions restricting the assignment of assets, and subjects us to the risk that creditors of the seller may challenge these transactions.

Our acquisitions are structured as the purchase of assets, primarily consisting of medical billing contracts with healthcare providers. This structure may limit the transferability of some of the acquired assets, including

13


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

contracts that have contractual provisions limiting their assignment. In our prior acquisitions, substantially all of the medical billing contracts we acquired did not have restrictions on their assignment to us. However, other medical billing contracts we may seek to acquire in the future may be subject to these restrictions. Furthermore, certain software and vendor contracts which we may seek to acquire for use during the transition period following our acquisitions may not be assignable to us, which may disrupt the operations of the acquired customers.

Furthermore, creditors of a seller from whom we acquire assets (including creditors of the Target Sellers) could challenge the acquisition as a fraudulent transfer under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws. In general, a transfer of assets can be found to be fraudulent and avoided if a court determines that the transferor, at the time of the asset transfer (i) delivered such assets with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its existing or future creditors or (ii) received less than reasonably equivalent value and the transferor was insolvent at the time of the transfer or was rendered insolvent as a result of the transfer. If a court determines that any of our acquisitions constitutes a fraudulent transfer, the court could order us to return to the transferor or its creditors the acquired assets, their value, or payments received by us on account of such assets.

Risks Related to Our Business

We operate in a highly competitive industry, and our competitors may be able to compete more efficiently or evolve more rapidly than we do, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, revenue, growth rates and market share.

The market for practice management, EHR and RCM information solutions and related services is highly competitive, and we expect competition to increase in the future. We face competition from other providers of both integrated and stand-alone practice management, EHR and RCM solutions, including competitors who utilize a web-based platform and providers of locally installed software systems. Our competitors include larger healthcare IT companies, such as athenahealth, Inc., Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. and Greenway Medical Technologies, Inc., all of which may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards, regulations or customer needs and requirements. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition and greater financial, marketing and other resources than us. We also compete with various regional RCM companies, some of which may continue to consolidate and expand into broader markets. We expect that competition will continue to increase as a result of incentives provided by the HITECH Act, and consolidation in both the information technology and healthcare industries. Competitors may introduce products or services that render our products or services obsolete or less marketable. Even if our products and services are more effective than the offerings of our competitors, current or potential customers might prefer competitive products or services to our products and services. In addition, our competitive edge could be diminished or completely lost if our competition develops similar offshore operations in Pakistan or other countries, such as India and the Philippines, where labor costs are lower than those in the U.S. (although higher than in Pakistan). Pricing pressures could negatively impact our margins, growth rate and market share.

If we are unable to successfully introduce new products or services or fail to keep pace with advances in technology, we would not be able to maintain our customers or grow our business which will have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our business depends on our ability to adapt to evolving technologies and industry standards and introduce new products and services accordingly. If we cannot adapt to changing technologies and industry standards and meet the requirements of our customers, our products and services may become obsolete, and our business would suffer. Because both the healthcare industry and the healthcare IT technology market are constantly evolving, our success will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to enhance our existing products and services, develop new technology that addresses the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our customers, respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis, educate our customers to adopt these new technologies, and successfully assist them in transitioning to our new products and services. The development of our proprietary technology entails significant technical and business risks. We may not be successful in developing, using, marketing, selling, or maintaining new technologies effectively or adapting our proprietary technology to evolving customer

14


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

requirements or emerging industry standards, and, as a result, our business and reputation could suffer. We may not be able to introduce new products or services on schedule, or at all, or such products or services may not achieve market acceptance. A failure by us to introduce new products or to introduce these products on schedule could cause us to not only lose our current customers but to fail to grow our business by attracting new customers.

The continued success of our business model is heavily dependent upon our operations in Pakistan, and any disruption to those operations will adversely affect us.

The majority of our operations, including the development and maintenance of our Web-based platform, our customer support services and a substantial portion of our sales and marketing efforts, are performed by our highly educated workforce of more than 1,000 employees in Pakistan, which has experienced, and continues to experience, political and social unrest and acts of terrorism. Conditions in Pakistan may further deteriorate following the planned withdrawal of U.S. armed forces from neighboring Afghanistan. The performance of our operations in Pakistan, and our ability to maintain our offshore offices, is an essential element of our business model, as the labor costs in Pakistan are substantially lower than the cost of comparable labor in India, the United States and other countries, and allows us to competitively price our products and services. Our competitive advantage will be greatly diminished and may disappear altogether if our operations in Pakistan are negatively impacted. Our operations in Pakistan may be negatively impacted by any number of factors, including political unrest; social unrest; terrorism; war; vandalism; currency fluctuations; changes to the law of Pakistan, the United States or any of the states in which we do business; or increases in the cost of labor and supplies in Pakistan. Our operations in Pakistan may also be affected by trade restrictions, such as tariffs or other trade controls. If we are unable to continue to leverage the skills and experience of our highly educated workforce in Pakistan, we may be unable to provide our products and services at attractive prices, and our business would be materially and negatively impacted or discontinued.

Our offshore operations expose us to additional business and financial risks which could subject us to civil and criminal liability.

The risks and challenges associated with our operations outside the United States include laws and business practices favoring local competitors; compliance with multiple, conflicting and changing governmental laws and regulations, including employment and tax laws and regulations; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Foreign operations subject us to numerous stringent U.S. and foreign laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, and comparable foreign laws and regulations that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. and other business entities for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Safeguards we implement to discourage these practices may prove to be less than effective and violations of the FCPA and other laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, or other liabilities or proceedings against us, including class action lawsuits and enforcement actions from the SEC, Department of Justice and overseas regulators.

Government programs in the United States initiated to accelerate the adoption and utilization of EHR solutions may not be effective in changing the behavior of providers or may not be fully implemented or fully funded by the government, which could cause a lack of demand for our products and services.

While government programs have been initiated to improve the efficiency and quality of the healthcare sector, these programs may not be fully implemented or fully funded and there is no guarantee that our customers will receive any of these funds. Providers may also be slow to adopt EHR solutions in response to these government programs, may not select our products and services, or may decide not to implement an EHR system at all. Adoption of EHR technology imposes increased costs on providers and requires providers to spend time becoming familiar with its use. Any delay in the purchase of our EHR solutions and services in response to government programs, or the failure of providers to purchase an EHR solution, could have an adverse effect on our ability to grow our business. It is also possible that Congress could repeal or not fund the HITECH Act as originally planned or otherwise amend it in a manner that would have an adverse effect on our business.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Changes in the healthcare industry could affect the demand for our services and may result in a decrease in our revenues and market share.

As the healthcare industry evolves, changes in our customer base may reduce the demand for our services, result in the termination of existing contracts, and make it more difficult to negotiate new contracts on terms that are acceptable to us. For example, the current trend toward consolidation of healthcare providers may cause our existing customer contracts to terminate as independent practices are merged into hospital systems or other healthcare organizations. Such larger healthcare organizations may have their own practice management, EHR and RCM solutions, reducing demand for our services. If this trend continues, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to maintain or expand our customer base, negotiate contracts with acceptable terms, or maintain our current pricing structure, which would result in a decrease in our revenues and market share.

If providers do not purchase our products and services or delay in choosing our products or services, we may not be able to grow our business.

Our business model depends on our ability to sell our products and services. Acceptance of our products and services may require providers to adopt different behavior patterns and new methods of conducting business and exchanging information. Providers may not integrate our products and services into their workflow and may not accept our solutions and services as a replacement for traditional methods of practicing medicine. Providers may also choose to buy our competitors’ products and services instead of ours. Achieving market acceptance for our solutions and services will continue to require substantial sales and marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant financial and other resources to create awareness and demand by providers. If providers fail to broadly accept our products and services, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

If the revenue of our customers decreases, or if our customers cancel or elect not to renew their contracts, our revenue will decrease.

Under most of our customer contracts, we base our charges on a percentage of the revenue that our customer collects through the use of our services. Many factors may lead to decreases in customer revenue, including:

reduction of customer revenue resulting from increased competition or other changes in the marketplace for physician services;
failure of our customers to adopt or maintain effective business practices;
actions by third-party payers of medical claims to reduce reimbursement;
government regulations and government or other payer actions or inaction reducing or delaying reimbursement;
interruption of customer access to our system; and
our failure to provide services in a timely or high-quality manner.

The current economic situation may give rise to several of these factors. For example, patients who have lost health insurance coverage due to unemployment or who face increased deductibles imposed by financially struggling employers or insurers could reduce the number of visits those patients make to our customers. Patients without health insurance or with reduced coverage may also default on their payment obligations at a higher rate than patients with coverage. Added financial stress on our customers could lead to their acquisition or bankruptcy, which could cause the termination of some of our service relationships. With a reduction in tax revenue, state and federal government healthcare programs, including reimbursement programs such as Medicaid, may be reduced or eliminated, which could negatively impact the payments that our customers receive. If our customers’ revenue decreases for any of the above or other reasons, or if our customers cancel or elect not to renew their contracts with us, our revenue will decrease.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have incurred recent operating losses, and we may not be able to achieve or subsequently maintain profitability in the future.

Although we generated net income of $117,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, we generated a net loss of ($178,000) for the year ended December 31, 2013. Our net income included exchange rate gains of $153,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012 and $200,000 in the year ended December 31, 2013. On a pro forma basis, if we had acquired the Target Sellers on January 1, 2013 and had not effected any cost-saving measures, including utilizing our offshore workforce, we would have reported a net loss of ($5.0 million) for the year ended December 31, 2013, primarily due to an estimated $8.3 million of amortization of intangible assets from the acquisition of the Target Sellers.

We may not succeed in achieving efficiencies from our acquisition of the Target Sellers, including by moving labor to our offshore subsidiary, in an amount necessary to offset increased costs resulting from the acquisitions, including an estimated $8.3 million in increased amortization expense associated with $24.9 million of additional intangible assets, and we may continue to incur losses in future periods. Furthermore, because we are acquiring all three Target Sellers simultaneously, we expect that the pace of cost reductions will be slower as compared to cost reductions we effected, for example, following our acquisition of Metro Medical. We expect to incur additional operating expenses associated with our new status as a public company and we intend to continue to increase our operating expenses as we grow our business. We also expect to continue to make investments in our proprietary technology, sales and marketing, infrastructure, facilities and other resources as we seek to grow, thereby incurring additional costs. If we are unable to generate adequate revenue growth and manage our expenses, we may continue to incur losses in the future and may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

As a result of our variable sales and implementation cycles, we may be unable to recognize revenue from prospective customers on a timely basis and we may not be able to offset expenditures.

The sales cycle for our services can be variable, typically ranging from two to four months from initial contact with a potential customer to contract execution, although this period can be substantially longer. During the sales cycle, we expend time and resources in an attempt to obtain a customer without recognizing revenue from that customer to offset such expenditures. Our implementation cycle is also variable, typically ranging from two to four months from contract execution to completion of implementation. Each customer’s situation is different, and unanticipated difficulties and delays may arise as a result of a failure by us or by the customer to meet our respective implementation responsibilities. During the implementation cycle, we expend substantial time, effort, and financial resources implementing our services without recognizing revenue. Even following implementation, there can be no assurance that we will recognize revenue on a timely basis or at all from our efforts. In addition, cancellation of any implementation after it has begun may involve loss to us of time, effort, and expenses invested in the canceled implementation process, and lost opportunity for implementing paying customers in that same period of time.

We may need additional capital to support our operations or the growth of our business, and we cannot be certain that this capital will be available on reasonable terms when required, or at all.

In order for us to grow and successfully execute our business plan, we may require additional financing which may not be available or may not be available on acceptable terms. If such financing is available, it may dilute your ownership of our stock. Failure to obtain financing may have a material adverse effect on our financial position. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support the operation or growth of our business could be significantly impaired and our operating results may be harmed.

If we are required to collect sales and use taxes on the products and services we sell in additional jurisdictions, we may be subject to liability for past sales and incur additional related costs and expenses, and our future sales may decrease.

We may lose sales or incur significant expenses should states be successful in imposing state sales and use taxes on our products and services. A successful assertion by one or more states that we should collect sales or other taxes on the sale of our products and services that we are currently not collecting could result in

17


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

substantial tax liabilities for past sales, decrease our ability to compete with healthcare IT vendors subject to sales and use taxes, and otherwise harm our business. Each state has different rules and regulations governing sales and use taxes, and these rules and regulations are subject to varying interpretations that may change over time. We review these rules and regulations periodically and, when we believe that our products or services are subject to sales and use taxes in a particular state, we voluntarily approach state tax authorities in order to determine how to comply with their rules and regulations. We cannot assure you that we will not be subject to sales and use taxes or related penalties for past sales in states where we believe no compliance is necessary.

Vendors of products and services like us are typically held responsible by taxing authorities for the collection and payment of any applicable sales and similar taxes. If one or more taxing authorities determines that taxes should have, but have not, been paid with respect to our products or services, we may be liable for past taxes in addition to taxes going forward. Liability for past taxes may also include very substantial interest and penalty charges. Nevertheless, customers may be reluctant to pay back taxes and may refuse responsibility for interest or penalties associated with those taxes. If we are required to collect and pay back taxes and the associated interest and penalties, and if our customers fail or refuse to reimburse us for all or a portion of these amounts, we will have incurred unplanned expenses that may be substantial. Moreover, imposition of such taxes on our products and services going forward will effectively increase the cost of those products and services to our customers and may adversely affect our ability to retain existing customers or to gain new customers in the states in which such taxes are imposed.

We may also become subject to tax audits or similar procedures in states where we already pay sales and use taxes. The incurrence of additional accounting and legal costs and related expenses in connection with, and the assessment of, taxes, interest, and penalties as a result of audits, litigation, or otherwise could be materially adverse to our current and future results of operations and financial condition.

If we lose the services of Mahmud Haq or other members of our management team, or if we are unable to attract, hire, integrate and retain other necessary employees, our business would be harmed.

Our future success depends in part on our ability to attract, hire, integrate and retain the members of our management team and other qualified personnel. In particular, we are dependent on the services of Mahmud Haq, our founder, principal stockholder and Chief Executive Officer, who among other things, is instrumental in managing our offshore operations in Pakistan and coordinating those operations with our U.S. activities. The loss of Mr. Haq, who would be particularly difficult to replace, could negatively impact our ability to effectively manage our cost-effective workforce in Pakistan, which enables us to provide our products and solutions at attractive prices. Our future success also depends on the continued contributions of our other executive officers and certain key employees, each of whom may be difficult to replace, and upon our ability to attract and retain additional management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we compete for qualified personnel with other employers. We may face difficulty identifying and hiring qualified personnel at compensation levels consistent with our existing compensation and salary structure. If we fail to retain our employees, we could incur significant expenses in hiring, integrating and training their replacements, and the quality of our services and our ability to serve our customers could diminish, resulting in a material adverse effect on our business.

We may be unable to adequately establish, protect or enforce our intellectual property rights.

Our success depends in part upon our ability to establish, protect and enforce our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. If we fail to establish, protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, we may lose an important advantage in the market in which we compete. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret law and contractual obligations to protect our key intellectual property rights, all of which provide only limited protection. Our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient to help us maintain our position in the market and our competitive advantages.

We only have one patent pending and none issued, and primarily rely on trade secrets to protect our proprietary technology. Trade secrets may not be protectable if not properly kept confidential. We strive to enter into non-disclosure agreements with our employees, customers, contractors and business partners to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. However, the steps we have taken may not be sufficient to prevent unauthorized use of our technology, and adequate remedies may not be available in the

18


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our trade secrets and proprietary technology. Moreover, others may reverse engineer or independently develop technologies that are competitive to ours or infringe our intellectual property.

Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third-parties from using our intellectual property for their competitive advantage. Any such use could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Monitoring unauthorized uses of and enforcing our intellectual property rights can be difficult and costly. Legal intellectual property actions are inherently uncertain and may not be successful, and may require a substantial amount of resources and divert our management’s attention.

Claims by others that we infringe their intellectual property could force us to incur significant costs or revise the way we conduct our business.

Our competitors protect their proprietary rights by means of patents, trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property. We have not conducted an independent review of patents and other intellectual property issued to third-parties, who may have patents or patent applications relating to our proprietary technology. We may receive letters from third parties alleging, or inquiring about, possible infringement, misappropriation or violation of their intellectual property rights. Any party asserting that we infringe, misappropriate or violate proprietary rights may force us to defend ourselves, and potentially our customers, against the alleged claim. These claims and any resulting lawsuit, if successful, could subject us to significant liability for damages and/or invalidation of our proprietary rights or interruption or cessation of our operations. Any such claims or lawsuit could:

be time-consuming and expensive to defend, whether meritorious or not;
require us to stop providing products or services that use the technology that allegedly infringes the other party’s intellectual property;
divert the attention of our technical and managerial resources;
require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements with third-parties, which may not be available on terms that we deem acceptable;
prevent us from operating all or a portion of our business or force us to redesign our products, services or technology platforms, which could be difficult and expensive and may make the performance or value of our product or service offerings less attractive;
subject us to significant liability for damages or result in significant settlement payments; or
require us to indemnify our customers.

Furthermore, during the course of litigation, confidential information may be disclosed in the form of documents or testimony in connection with discovery requests, depositions or trial testimony. Disclosure of our confidential information and our involvement in intellectual property litigation could materially adversely affect our business. Some of our competitors may be able to sustain the costs of intellectual property litigation more effectively than we can because they have substantially greater resources. In addition, any litigation could significantly harm our relationships with current and prospective customers. Any of the foregoing could disrupt our business and have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Current and future litigation against us could be costly and time-consuming to defend and could result in additional liabilities.

We may from time to time be subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, such as claims brought by our clients in connection with commercial disputes and employment claims made by our current or former employees. Claims may also be asserted by or on behalf of a variety of other parties, including government agencies, patients of our physician clients, or stockholders. Any litigation involving us may result in substantial costs and may divert management’s attention and resources, which may seriously harm our business, overall financial condition, and operating results. Insurance may not cover existing or future claims, be sufficient to fully compensate us for one or more of such claims, or continue to

19


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

be available on terms acceptable to us. A claim brought against us that is uninsured or underinsured could result in unanticipated costs, thereby reducing our operating results and leading analysts or potential investors to reduce their expectations of our performance resulting in a reduction in the trading price of our stock.

Our proprietary software may not operate properly, which could damage our reputation, give rise to claims against us, or divert application of our resources from other purposes, any of which could harm our business and operating results.

We may encounter technical obstacles that prevent our proprietary applications from operating properly. If our applications do not function reliably or fail to achieve customer expectations in terms of performance, customers could assert liability claims against us or attempt to cancel their contracts with us. This could damage our reputation and impair our ability to attract or maintain customers.

Moreover, information services as complex as those we offer have in the past contained, and may in the future develop or contain, undetected defects or errors. We cannot assure you that material performance problems or defects in our products or services will not arise in the future. Errors may result from receipt, entry, or interpretation of patient information or from interface of our services with legacy systems and data that we did not develop and the function of which is outside of our control. Despite testing, defects or errors may arise in our existing or new software or service processes. Because changes in payer requirements and practices are frequent and sometimes difficult to determine except through trial and error, we are continuously discovering defects and errors in our software and service processes compared against these requirements and practices. These defects and errors and any failure by us to identify and address them could result in loss of revenue or market share, liability to customers or others, failure to achieve market acceptance or expansion, diversion of development resources, injury to our reputation, and increased service and maintenance costs. Defects or errors in our software might discourage existing or potential customers from purchasing our products and services. Correction of defects or errors could prove to be impossible or impracticable. The costs incurred in correcting any defects or errors or in responding to resulting claims or liability may be substantial and could adversely affect our operating results.

In addition, customers relying on our services to collect, manage, and report clinical, business, and administrative data may have a greater sensitivity to service errors and security vulnerabilities than customers of software products in general. We market and sell services that, among other things, provide information to assist healthcare providers in tracking and treating patients. Any operational delay in or failure of our technology or service processes may result in the disruption of patient care and could cause harm to patients and thereby create unforeseen liabilities for our business.

Our customers or their patients may assert claims against us alleging that they suffered damages due to a defect, error, or other failure of our software or service processes. A product liability claim or errors or omissions claim could subject us to significant legal defense costs and adverse publicity, regardless of the merits or eventual outcome of such a claim.

If our security measures are breached or fail and unauthorized access is obtained to a customer’s data, our service may be perceived as insecure, the attractiveness of our services to current or potential customers may be reduced, and we may incur significant liabilities.

Our services involve the web-based storage and transmission of customers’ proprietary information and patient information, including health, financial, payment and other personal or confidential information. We rely on proprietary and commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring, as well as other processes, to provide security for processing, transmission and storage of such information. Because of the sensitivity of this information and due to requirements under applicable laws and regulations, the effectiveness of our security efforts is very important. We maintain servers which store customers’ data, including patient health records, in the U.S. and Pakistan. Upon the acquisition of the Target Sellers, we will process, transmit and store some data of our customers on servers and networks that are owned and controlled by third-party contractors and situated in Poland, India and elsewhere. If our security measures are breached or fail as a result of third-party action, acts of terror, social unrest, employee error, malfeasance or for any other reasons, someone may be able to obtain unauthorized access to customer or patient data. Improper activities by third-parties, advances in computer and software capabilities and encryption technology, new tools and

20


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

discoveries and other events or developments may facilitate or result in a compromise or breach of our security systems. Our security measures may not be effective in preventing unauthorized access to the customer and patient data stored on our servers. If a breach of our security occurs, we could face damages for contract breach, penalties for violation of applicable laws or regulations, possible lawsuits by individuals affected by the breach and significant remediation costs and efforts to prevent future occurrences. In addition, whether there is an actual or a perceived breach of our security, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed and we could lose current or potential customers.

Our products and services are required to meet the interoperability standards, which could require us to incur substantial additional development costs or result in a decrease in sales.

Our customers and the industry leaders enacting regulatory requirements are concerned with and often require that our products and services be interoperable with other third-party healthcare information technology suppliers. Market forces or regulatory authorities could create software interoperability standards that would apply to our solutions, and if our products and services are not consistent with those standards, we could be forced to incur substantial additional development costs. There currently exists a comprehensive set of criteria for the functionality, interoperability and security of various software modules in the healthcare information technology industry. However, those standards are subject to continuous modification and refinement. Achieving and maintaining compliance with industry interoperability standards and related requirements could result in larger than expected software development expenses and administrative expenses in order to conform to these requirements. These standards and specifications, once finalized, will be subject to interpretation by the entities designated to certify such technology. We will incur increased development costs in delivering solutions if we need to change or enhance our products and services to be in compliance with these varying and evolving standards. If our products and services are not consistent with these evolving standards, our market position and sales could be impaired and we may have to invest significantly in changes to our solutions.

We rely on Internet search engines to drive traffic to our website, and if we fail to appear high up in the search results, our traffic would decline and our business would be adversely affected.

We depend in part on Internet search engines, such as Google, Bing, and Yahoo! to drive traffic from potential customers to our website. Although we employ search engine optimization techniques in an effort to increase traffic to our website, our ability to maintain high search result rankings is not entirely within our control. Our competitors’ search engine optimization efforts may result in their websites receiving a higher search result page ranking than ours, or Internet search engines could revise their methodologies in a way that would adversely affect our search result rankings. If Internet search engines modify their search algorithms in ways that are detrimental to us, or if our competitors’ search engine optimization efforts are more successful than ours, growth in our customer base could slow. Our website has experienced fluctuations in search result rankings in the past, and we anticipate similar fluctuations in the future. Any reduction in the number of potential customers directed to our website through search engines could harm our ability to grow our business and increase profitability.

Disruptions in Internet or telecommunication service or damage to our data centers could adversely affect our business by reducing our customers’ confidence in the reliability of our services and products.

Our information technologies and systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from various causes, including acts of God and other natural disasters, war and acts of terrorism and power losses, computer systems failures, Internet and telecommunications or data network failures, operator error, losses of and corruption of data and similar events. Our customers’ data, including patient health records, reside on our own servers located in the U.S. and Pakistan. In the case of customers of the Target Sellers, such data will reside on, and be transmitted and processed through, third-party servers and networks situated inside and outside the U.S., unless and until such data are migrated to our servers. Although we conduct business continuity planning to protect against fires, floods, other natural disasters and general business interruptions to mitigate the adverse effects of a disruption, relocation or change in operating environment at our data centers, the situations we plan for and the amount of insurance coverage we maintain may not be adequate in any particular case. In addition, the occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions, delays or cessations in service to

21


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

our customers. Any of these events could impair or prohibit our ability to provide our services, reduce the attractiveness of our services to current or potential customers and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, despite the implementation of security measures, our infrastructure, data centers, or systems that we interface with or utilize, including the Internet and related systems, may be vulnerable to physical break-ins, hackers, improper employee or contractor access, computer viruses, programming errors, denial-of-service attacks or other attacks by third-parties seeking to disrupt operations or misappropriate information or similar physical or electronic breaches of security. Any of these can cause system failure, including network, software or hardware failure, which can result in service disruptions. As a result, we may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches and hackers or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches.

We may be subject to liability for the content we provide to our customers and their patients.

We provide content for use by healthcare providers in treating patients. This content includes, among other things, patient education materials, coding and drug databases developed by third-parties, and prepopulated templates providers can use to document visits and record patient health information. If content in the third-party databases we use is incorrect or incomplete, adverse consequences, including death, may occur and give rise to product liability and other claims against us. A court or government agency may take the position that our delivery of health information directly, including through licensed practitioners, or delivery of information by a third-party site that a consumer accesses through our solutions, exposes us to personal injury liability, or other liability for wrongful delivery or handling of healthcare services or erroneous health information. Our liability insurance coverage may not be adequate or continue to be available on acceptable terms, if at all. A claim brought against us that is uninsured or under-insured could harm our business. Even unsuccessful claims could result in substantial costs and diversion of management resources.

We are subject to the effect of payer and provider conduct that we cannot control and that could damage our reputation with customers and result in liability claims that increase our expenses.

We offer electronic claims submission services for which we rely on content from customers, payers, and others. While we have implemented features and safeguards designed to maximize the accuracy and completeness of claims content, these features and safeguards may not be sufficient to prevent inaccurate claims data from being submitted to payers. Should inaccurate claims data be submitted to payers, we may experience poor operational results and be subject to liability claims, which could damage our reputation with customers and result in liability claims that increase our expenses.

Failure by our clients to obtain proper permissions and waivers may result in claims against us or may limit or prevent our use of data, which could harm our business.

Our clients are obligated by applicable law to provide necessary notices and to obtain necessary permission waivers for use and disclosure of the information that we receive. If they do not obtain necessary permissions and waivers, then our use and disclosure of information that we receive from them or on their behalf may be limited or prohibited by state or federal privacy laws or other laws. This could impair our functions, processes, and databases that reflect, contain, or are based upon such data and may prevent use of such data. In addition, this could interfere with or prevent creation or use of rules, and analyses or limit other data-driven activities that benefit us. Moreover, we may be subject to claims or liability for use or disclosure of information by reason of lack of valid notice, permission, or waiver. These claims or liabilities could subject us to unexpected costs and adversely affect our operating results.

Our independent registered public accountants have reported to us that we had a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013, our independent registered public accountants identified deficiencies and in the aggregate a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A “deficiency” in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing

22


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

their assigned functions, to prevent or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The issues identified by our independent registered public accountants related to the timely and accurate review over our financial closing and reporting process, and resulted in part due to our lack of experienced personnel to perform detailed reviews. We have taken steps to address this issue by hiring an experienced Chief Financial Officer who, among other things, will be responsible for implementing formal procedures and processes to adequately review financial information, formalizing segregation of duties, and upgrading our accounting system to include additional controls. We expect that the reported weakness will be successfully remediated by the end of 2014. Our remediation efforts will include the hiring of additional accounting personnel, upgrading our accounting system with multi-company and multi-currency capabilities, and implementing additional controls. We estimate that the total cost of our remediation efforts during 2014, including the capital cost for our new accounting system and personnel expenses for 12 months, will be between $750,000 and $1.25 million.

Notwithstanding the actions we are taking, we may in the future identify other material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in connection with our internal control over financial reporting. Material weaknesses and significant deficiencies that may be identified in the future will need to be addressed as part of our evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will not apply to us until our second annual report on Form 10-K. Any future disclosures of a material weakness, or errors as a result of a material weakness, could result in a negative reaction in the financial markets and a decrease in the price of our common stock.

Regulatory Risks

The healthcare industry is heavily regulated. Our failure to comply with regulatory requirements could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity and negatively affect our business.

The healthcare industry is heavily regulated and is constantly evolving due to the changing political, legislative, regulatory landscape and other factors. Many healthcare laws, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), that was signed into law in March 2010, are complex, and their application to specific services and relationships may not be clear. In particular, many existing healthcare laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate or address the services that we provide. Further, healthcare laws differ from state to state and it is difficult to ensure that our business, products and services comply with evolving laws in all states. By way of example, certain federal and state laws forbid billing based on referrals between individuals or entities that have various financial, ownership, or other business relationships with healthcare providers. These laws vary widely from state to state, and one of the federal laws governing these relationships, known as the Stark Law, is very complex in its application. Similarly, many states have laws forbidding physicians from practicing medicine in partnership with non-physicians, such as business corporations, as well as laws or regulations forbidding splitting of physician fees with non-physicians or others. Other federal and state laws restrict assignment of claims for reimbursement from government-funded programs, the manner in which business service companies may handle payments for such claims and the methodology under which business services companies may be compensated for such services. Our failure to accurately anticipate the application of these laws and regulations to our business, or any other failure to comply with regulatory requirements, could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity and negatively affect our business.

In addition, federal and state legislatures and agencies periodically consider proposals to revise aspects of the healthcare industry or to revise or create additional statutory and regulatory requirements. For instance, certain computer software products are regulated as medical devices under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. While the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has sometimes chosen to disclaim authority to, or to refrain from actively regulating certain software products which are similar to our products, this area of medical device regulation remain in flux. We expect that the FDA will continue to be active in exploring legal regimes for regulating computer software intended for use in healthcare settings. Any additional regulation can be expected to impose additional overhead costs on us and should we fail to adequately meet these legal

23


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

obligations, we could face potential regulation action. Regulatory authorities such as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) may also impose functionality standards with regard to electronic prescribing technologies. If implemented, proposals like these could impact our operations, the use of our services and our ability to market new services, or could create unexpected liabilities for us. We cannot predict what changes to laws or regulations might be made in the future or how those changes could affect our business or our operating costs.

If we do not maintain the certification of our EHR solutions pursuant to the HITECH Act, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

The HITECH Act provides financial incentives for healthcare providers that demonstrate “meaningful use” of EHR and mandates use of health information technology systems that are certified according to technical standards developed under the supervision of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The HITECH Act also imposes certain requirements upon governmental agencies to use, and requires healthcare providers, health plans, and insurers contracting with such agencies to use, systems that are certified according to such standards. Such standards and implementation specifications that are being developed under the HITECH Act includes named standards, architectures, and software schemes for the authentication and security of individually identifiable health information and the creation of common solutions across disparate entities.

The HITECH Act’s certification requirements affect our business because we have invested and continue to invest in conforming our products and services to these standards. HHS has developed certification programs for electronic health records and health information exchanges. Our web-based EHR solution has been certified as a complete EHR by ICSA Labs, a non- governmental, independent certifying body, which indicates that our EHR solutions meet the 2014 criteria to support Stage 2 “meaningful use” as required by HHS to assist providers in their efforts to meet the goals and objectives of “meaningful use,” making such providers eligible for funding under the HITECH Act if our EHR is used appropriately. However, Stage 2 only refers to the second set of “meaningful use” objectives that must be met to be eligible for incentive payments. Stage 3 requirements have yet to be defined. As the standards are developed, we may need to use additional resources to meet the newly defined requirements, which could lead to delays necessary to modify our solutions. We must ensure that our EHR solutions continue to be certified according to applicable HITECH Act technical standards so that our customers qualify for “meaningful use” incentive payments. Failure to maintain this certification under the HITECH Act could jeopardize our relationships with customers who are relying upon us to provide certified software, and will make our products and services less attractive to customers than the offerings of other EHR vendors who maintain certification of their products.

If a breach of our measures protecting personal data covered by HIPAA or the HITECH Act occurs, we may incur significant liabilities.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended (HIPAA), and the regulations that have been issued under it contain substantial restrictions and requirements with respect to the use, collection, storage and disclosure of individuals’ protected health information. Under HIPAA, covered entities must establish administrative, physical and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of electronic protected health information maintained or transmitted by them or by others on their behalf. In February 2009, HIPAA was amended by the HITECH Act to add provisions that impose certain of HIPAA’s privacy and security requirements directly upon business associates of covered entities. Under HIPAA and the HITECH Act, our customers are covered entities and we are a business associate of our customers as a result of our contractual obligations to perform certain services for those customers. The HITECH Act transferred enforcement authority of the security rule from CMS to the Office for Civil Rights of HHS, thereby consolidating authority over the privacy and security rules under a single office within HHS. Further, HITECH empowered state attorneys general to enforce HIPAA.

The HITECH Act heightened enforcement of privacy and security rules, indicating that the imposition of penalties will be more common in the future and such penalties will be more severe. For example, the HITECH Act requires that the HHS fully investigate all complaints if a preliminary investigation of the facts indicates a possible violation due to “willful neglect” and imposes penalties if such neglect is found. Further, where our liability as a business associate to our customers was previously merely contractual in nature, the

24


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

HITECH Act now treats the breach of duty under an agreement by a business associate to carry the same liability as if the covered entity engaged in the breach. In other words, as a business associate, we are now directly responsible for complying with HIPAA. We may find ourselves subject to increased liability as a possible liable party and we may incur increased costs as we perform our obligations to our customers under our agreements with them.

Finally, regulations also require business associates to notify covered entities, who in turn must notify affected individuals and government authorities of data security breaches involving unsecured protected health information. We have performed an assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity and availability of electronic health information. In response to this risk analysis, we implemented and maintain physical, technical and administrative safeguards intended to protect all personal data and have processes in place to assist us in complying with applicable laws and regulations regarding the protection of this data and properly responding to any security incidents. If we knowingly breach the HITECH Act’s requirements, we could be exposed to criminal liability. A breach of our safeguards and processes could expose us to civil penalties (up to $1.5 million for identical incidences) and the possibility of civil litigation.

If we or our customers fail to comply with federal and state laws governing submission of false or fraudulent claims to government healthcare programs and financial relationships among healthcare providers, we or our customers may be subject to civil and criminal penalties or loss of eligibility to participate in government healthcare programs.

As a participant in the healthcare industry, our operations and relationships, and those of our customers, are regulated by a number of federal, state and local governmental entities. The impact of these regulations can adversely affect us even though we may not be directly regulated by specific healthcare laws and regulations. We must ensure that our products and services can be used by our customers in a manner that complies with those laws and regulations. Inability of our customers to do so could affect the marketability of our products and services or our compliance with our customer contracts, or even expose us to direct liability under the theory that we had assisted our customers in a violation of healthcare laws or regulations. A number of federal and state laws, including anti-kickback restrictions and laws prohibiting the submission of false or fraudulent claims, apply to healthcare providers and others that make, offer, seek or receive referrals or payments for products or services that may be paid for through any federal or state healthcare program and, in some instances, any private program. These laws are complex and their application to our specific services and relationships may not be clear and may be applied to our business in ways that we do not anticipate. Federal and state regulatory and law enforcement authorities have recently increased enforcement activities with respect to Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse regulations and other healthcare reimbursement laws and rules. From time to time, participants in the healthcare industry receive inquiries or subpoenas to produce documents in connection with government investigations. We could be required to expend significant time and resources to comply with these requests, and the attention of our management team could be diverted by these efforts. The occurrence of any of these events could give our customers the right to terminate our contracts with us and result in significant harm to our business and financial condition.

These laws and regulations may change rapidly, and it is frequently unclear how they apply to our business. Any failure of our products or services to comply with these laws and regulations could result in substantial civil or criminal liability and could, among other things, adversely affect demand for our services, invalidate all or portions of some of our contracts with our customers, require us to change or terminate some portions of our business, require us to refund portions of our revenue, cause us to be disqualified from serving customers doing business with government payers, and give our customers the right to terminate our contracts with them, any one of which could have an adverse effect on our business.

Potential healthcare reform and new regulatory requirements placed on our products and services could increase our costs, delay or prevent our introduction of new products or services, and impair the function or value of our existing products and services.

Our products and services may be significantly impacted by healthcare reform initiatives and will be subject to increasing regulatory requirements, either of which could negatively impact our business in a multitude of ways. If substantive healthcare reform or applicable regulatory requirements are adopted, we may have to change or adapt our products and services to comply. Reform or changing regulatory requirements

25


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

may also render our products or services obsolete or may block us from accomplishing our work or from developing new products or services. This may in turn impose additional costs upon us to adapt to the new operating environment or to further develop or modify our products and services. For example, the conversion to the ICD-10-CM standard for coding medical diagnoses will likely cause significant disruption to our industry and consume a large amount of our resources. Such reforms may also make introduction of new products and service more costly or more time-consuming than we currently anticipate. These changes may also prevent our introduction of new products and services or make the continuation or maintenance of our existing products and services unprofitable or impossible.

Additional regulation of the disclosure of medical information outside the United States may adversely affect our operations and may increase our costs.

Federal or state governmental authorities may impose additional data security standards or additional privacy or other restrictions on the collection, use, transmission, and other disclosures of medical information. Legislation has been proposed at various times at both the federal and the state level that would limit, forbid, or regulate the use or transmission of medical information outside of the United States. Such legislation, if adopted, may render our use of our servers in Pakistan for work related to such data impracticable or substantially more expensive. Alternative processing of such information within the United States may involve substantial delay in implementation and increased cost.

Our services present the potential for embezzlement, identity theft, or other similar illegal behavior by our employees.

Among other things, our services from time to time involve handling mail from payers and from patients for our customers, and this mail frequently includes original checks and credit card information and occasionally includes currency. Even in those cases in which we do not handle original documents or mail, our services also involve the use and disclosure of personal and business information that could be used to impersonate third parties or otherwise gain access to their data or funds. The manner in which we store and use certain financial information is governed by various federal and state laws. If any of our employees takes, converts, or misuses such funds, documents, or data, we could be liable for damages, subject to regulatory actions and penalties, and our business reputation could be damaged or destroyed. In addition, we could be perceived to have facilitated or participated in illegal misappropriation of funds, documents, or data and therefore be subject to civil or criminal liability.

There is currently no public market for our common stock. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our company will lead to the development of a trading market in our common stock, or how liquid that market might be. If an active market does not develop, you may have difficulty selling your shares of our common stock. The initial public offering price of our common stock will be determined by the negotiations between us and the representatives of the underwriters and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the open market following the completion of this offering.

Our revenues, operating results and cash flows may fluctuate in future periods and we may fail to meet investor expectations, which may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Variations in our quarterly and year-end operating results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from period to period. If our sales or operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price of our common stock could decline substantially. Specific factors that may cause fluctuations in our operating results include:

demand and pricing for our products and services;
government or commercial healthcare reimbursement policies;
physician and patient acceptance of any of our current or future products;

introduction of competing products;
our operating expenses which fluctuate due to growth of our business;
timing and size of any new product or technology acquisitions we may complete; and
variable sales cycle and implementation periods for our products and services.

Once our common stock begins trading, the market price of our shares may fluctuate widely, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock may trade after this offering. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate widely, depending upon many factors. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our common stock since you might be unable to sell your shares at or above the price you paid in this offering. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the market price of our common stock include the following:

a shift in our investor base;
our quarterly or annual results of operations, or those of other companies in our industry;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results due to factors related to our business;
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, dispositions or software developments;
the failure to maintain our NASDAQ listing or failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock after the distribution;
changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;
the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;
overall market fluctuations; and
general economic conditions.

Stock markets in general have experienced volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Future sales of shares of our common stock could depress the market price of our common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could occur at any time. If our stockholders sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market following this offering, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly.

Upon completion of this offering, we will have outstanding [    ] shares of common stock. Of these shares, the shares sold in this offering (except for shares purchased by affiliates), and [    ] additional shares will be freely tradable immediately. The remaining [    ] shares of common stock, including approximately [    ] shares to be issued to the Target Sellers (based on an assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), are currently restricted as a result of securities laws, escrows or lock-up agreements but will be able to be sold after the offering as described in the section of this prospectus entitled “Shares Eligible For Future Sale.”

In addition, promptly following the completion of this offering, we intend to file a registration statement on Form S-8 registering the issuance of approximately 1,351,000 shares of common stock subject to options or other equity awards issued or reserved for future issuance under our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan. Shares registered under this registration statement on Form S-8 will be available for sale in the public market subject

to vesting arrangements and exercise of options, the lock-up agreements referred to above and the restrictions of Rule 144 in the case of our affiliates.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution.

The initial public offering price will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value of each outstanding share of common stock immediately after this offering. If you purchase common stock in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution. At the initial public offering price of $10.00, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, with net proceeds of $     million, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, investors who purchase shares in this offering will have contributed approximately [    ]% of the total amount of funding we have received to date, but will only hold approximately [    ]% of the total voting rights, giving effect to the issuance of [    ] shares of our common stock upon the closing of the acquisition of the Target Sellers. The dilution will be $[    ] per share in the net tangible book value of the common stock from the assumed initial public offering price. For more information refer to “Dilution.”

Your percentage ownership will be further diluted in the future.

Your percentage ownership will be diluted in the future because of equity awards that we expect will be granted to our directors, officers and employees. Prior to the completion of this offering, our board of directors and stockholders will have approved our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, which provides for the grant of equity-based awards, including restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights and other equity-based awards to our directors, officers and other employees, advisors and consultants.

Mahmud Haq will control [    ]% of our outstanding shares of common stock upon completion of this offering, which will prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.

Upon completion of this offering, Mahmud Haq, our founder and Chief Executive Officer, will beneficially own [    ]% of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, Mr. Haq will exercise a significant level of control over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, amendment of our certificate of incorporation, and approval of significant corporate transactions. This control could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of our company or changes in management, and will make the approval of certain transactions difficult or impossible without his support, which in turn could reduce the price of our common stock.

We will have broad discretion in using the proceeds of this offering, and we may not effectively expend the proceeds.

We intend to use approximately $18.2 million of the net proceeds of this offering to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for the Target Sellers, although this amount may increase or decrease by up to 10% based on the actual price at which our common stock is sold in this offering. We expect to use the balance for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include financing our growth, developing new products and services, and funding capital expenditures, acquisitions and investments. We will have significant flexibility and broad discretion in applying the net proceeds of this offering after paying the cash purchase price for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, and we may not apply these proceeds effectively. Our management might not be able to yield a significant return, if any, on any investment of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity to influence our decisions on how to use our net proceeds from this offering.

Provisions of Delaware law, of our amended and restated charter and amended and restated bylaws may make a takeover more difficult, which could cause our stock price to decline.

Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws and in the Delaware corporate law may make it difficult and expensive for a third party to pursue a tender offer, change in control or takeover attempt, which is opposed by management and the board of directors. Public stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. We have a staggered board of directors that makes it difficult for stockholders to change the composition of the

28


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

board of directors in any one year. Further, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide for the removal of a director only for cause and by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares entitled to cast their vote for the election of directors, which may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us. These and other anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of public stockholders to change our management and board of directors. Such provisions may also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock in the future.

Any issuance of preferred stock in the future may dilute the rights of our common stockholders.

Our board of directors will have the authority to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, privileges and other terms of these shares. Our board of directors may exercise this authority without any further approval of stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock may be adversely affected by the rights of future holders of preferred stock.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock.

Currently, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to holders of our common stock. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be a stockholder’s sole source of gain.

Complying with the laws and regulations affecting public companies will increase our costs and the demands on management and could harm our operating results.

As a public company and particularly after we cease to be an “emerging growth company,” we will incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the NASDAQ Stock Market impose various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, these rules and regulations have increased and will continue to increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs and have made and will continue to make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or our board committees or as executive officers.

In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. In particular, beginning with the year ending December 31, 2015, we will need to perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal control over financial reporting to allow management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm potentially to attest to, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404. As an “emerging growth company” we will elect to avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. However, we may no longer avail ourselves of this exemption when we cease to be an “emerging growth company” and, when our independent registered public accounting firm is required to undertake an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, the cost of our compliance with Section 404 will correspondingly increase. Our compliance with applicable provisions of Section 404 will require that we incur substantial accounting expense and expend significant management time on compliance-related issues as we implement additional corporate governance practices and comply with reporting requirements. Moreover, if we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 applicable to us in a timely manner, or if we or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that are deemed to be material weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.

29


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Furthermore, investor perceptions of our company may suffer if deficiencies are found, and this could cause a decline in the market price of our stock. Irrespective of compliance with Section 404, any failure of our internal control over financial reporting could have a material adverse effect on our stated operating results and harm our reputation. If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting, or financial results and could result in an adverse opinion on internal control from our independent registered public accounting firm.

The JOBS Act allows us to postpone the date by which we must comply with certain laws and regulations and to reduce the amount of information provided in reports filed with the SEC. We cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are and we will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed $1 billion (subject to adjustment for inflation), (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of this offering, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt, or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this exemption and, will therefore be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards at the same time as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we will rely on some of the exemptions available to us under the JOBS Act. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. If we avail ourselves of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements, our reduced disclosure may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate us and may result in less investor confidence.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of our common stock in this offering will be $     million, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. Our net proceeds will increase by approximately $     million if the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full.

Each $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share would increase or decrease the net proceeds that we receive from this offering by $     million, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions. Similarly, each increase or decrease of one million shares in the number of shares of common stock offered by us would increase or decrease the net proceeds that we receive from this offering by $     million, assuming the assumed initial public offering price remains the same and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for the Target Sellers in the amount of approximately $18.2 million (assuming an initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), to pay brokerage fees in the amount of approximately $1.1 million in connection with the acquisition of the Target Sellers, and to pay the legal, accounting and other fees associated with this offering. We will use the remaining proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the expansion of our sales and marketing team, and the enhancement of our products and services. In addition, we may also use a portion of the net proceeds for the acquisition of or investment in the businesses or assets of other medical billing companies that we believe are complementary to our present business. Other than with respect to the Target Sellers, we have not entered into any agreement or commitment with respect to any acquisitions or investments at this time.

Other than the cash portion of the purchase price for the Target Sellers and the other items specified above, we have not allocated any specific portion of the net proceeds to any particular purpose, and our management will have the discretion to allocate the proceeds as it determines. Furthermore, the amount and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the cash used in or generated by our operations, the pace of the integration of the Target Sellers businesses, the level of our sales and marketing activities and the attractiveness of any additional acquisitions or investments. Pending the use of the proceeds from this offering described above, we plan to invest the net proceeds that we receive in this offering in highly liquid short-term interest-bearing obligations, investment grade investments, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings and do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent on a number of factors, including our earnings, capital requirements, our overall financial condition and other factors that our board of directors considers relevant.

(1) Each $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase or decrease each of cash, additional paid in capital, total stockholders’ equity and total capitalization by approximately $     million, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions. Similarly, each increase or decrease of one million shares in the number of shares of common stock offered by us would increase or decrease, as applicable, cash and cash equivalents, additional paid in capital total stockholders’ equity and total capitalization by approximately $    million, assuming an initial offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

DILUTION

If you invest in our common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the initial offering price per share of our common stock and the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. Our pro forma net tangible book value as of December 31, 2013 was $     million, or $     per share of common stock. Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding, as of December 31, 2013, after giving effect to the issuance of      shares of our common stock upon the closing of the acquisitions of the Target Sellers, and      shares of our common stock upon conversion of the convertible debt we issued in September 2013, which is expected to occur upon the closing of this offering.

After giving effect to the sale by us of      shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2013 would have been $     million, or $     per share. This amount represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value of $     per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value of approximately $     per share to new investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering at the assumed initial public offering price. The following table illustrates this dilution:

 
Assumed initial public offering price per share   $     —  
Pro forma net tangible book value per share before this offering      
Increase in pro forma net tangible book value per share per share attributable to new investors purchasing shares in this offering      
Pro forma net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering      
Dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering   $  

Each $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, would increase or decrease, as applicable, our pro forma adjusted net tangible book value per share to new investors by $     and would increase or decrease, as applicable, dilution per share to new investors in this offering by $    , assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares from us in full, the pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering would be $     per share, and the dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering would be $     per share.

The following table presents on a pro forma as adjusted basis as of December 31, 2013, after giving effect to the issuance of      shares of our common stock upon the closing of the acquisitions of the Target Sellers, which is expected to occur on the closing of this offering, the differences between existing stockholders and new investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering, with respect to the number of shares purchased from us, the total consideration paid or to be paid to us, giving effect to the assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price

(1) Working Capital is defined as current assets less current liabilities.
(2) To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings. EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management uses EBITDA as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following table contains a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We prepared the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements by applying certain pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of MTBC. The pro forma adjustments give effect to the following transactions (the “Transactions”):

Our acquisition of the assets of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. (“Metro Medical”) on June 30, 2013,
Our planned acquisition of the assets of the subsidiaries of Omni Medical Billing Services, LLC (collectively, “Omni”),
Our planned acquisition of the assets of Practicare Medical Management, Inc. (“Practicare”),
Our planned acquisition of the assets of the subsidiaries of CastleRock Solutions, Inc. (collectively, “CastleRock”), and
The conversion of our convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000, plus accrued interest, upon closing of the our initial public offering
The estimated net proceeds from our initial public offering and the application of the estimated proceeds therefrom.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31 , 2013 give effect to the Transactions as if each of them had occurred on January 1, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 gives effect to the Transactions as if each of them had occurred on December 31, 2013.

These pro forma condensed combined financial statements include adjustments for our planned acquisitions because we believe each of these acquisitions is probable under the standards of Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X. The results of a significant business acquired in 2013 are shown for the period prior to its acquisition by MTBC.

We determined that each acquisition shown involved the acquisition of a business, considering the guidance in Rule 11-01 (d) of Regulation S-X, and individually as well as in aggregate met the significance test of Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X.

The historical financial statements of MTBC, Metro Medical and each of the businesses whose acquisition is planned appear elsewhere in this prospectus. The financial statements of Metro Medical subsequent to March 31, 2013 are not required to be presented in this prospectus as the acquisition occurred on June 30, 2013, before the end of the reporting period. We have based our historical financial information for Metro Medical for the period of April 1, 2013 through June 30, 2013 on results as reported by its management and reviewed by our accounting and finance department.

We have based the pro forma adjustments upon available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. We describe in greater detail the assumptions underlying the pro forma adjustments in the accompanying notes, which you should read in conjunction with these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In many cases, we based these assumptions on preliminary information and estimates. The actual adjustments to our audited consolidated financial statements will depend upon a number of factors and additional information that will be available on or after the closing date of our initial public offering. Accordingly, the actual adjustments that will appear in our financial statements will differ from these pro forma adjustments, and those differences may be material.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We account for our completed and proposed acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations under GAAP, with MTBC being considered the acquiring entity. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total consideration paid is allocated to an acquired company’s tangible and intangible assets, net of liabilities, based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. We have not completed the acquisition of the Target Sellers and therefore the estimated purchase price and fair value of the Target Sellers’ assets to be acquired and liabilities assumed is preliminary. Once we complete our final valuation process, for our planned acquisitions, we may report changes to the value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as the amount of goodwill, and those changes could differ materially from what we present here.

We provide these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for informational purposes only. These unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not purport to represent what our results of operations or financial condition would have been had the Transactions actually occurred on the assumed dates, nor do they purport to project our results of operations or financial condition for any future period or future date. You should read these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements in conjunction with “Capitalization,” “Selected Historical Consolidated Financial Information” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and the historical financial statements, including the related notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with our planned acquisition of the Target Sellers, we have entered into three asset purchase agreements, which are materially similar, as follows:

Omni Medical Billing Services, LLC, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Laboratory Billing Service Providers, LLC, Medical Data Resources Providers, LLC, Medical Billing Resources Providers, LLC, Primary Billing Services Providers, Inc.
Practicare Medical Management, Inc., and its parent company, Ultimate Medical Management, Inc.
CastleRock Solutions, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Tekhealth Services, Inc., Professional Accounts Management, Inc., and Practice Development Strategies, Inc.

FOOTNOTES:

(1) Elimination of Customers not Acquired — We have adjusted the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013 to eliminate customers not acquired. The Metro Medical purchase agreement specified seven customers, representing approximately 10% of Metro Medical’s revenue, which were explicitly excluded from the asset purchase agreement and retained by affiliates of Metro Medical as part of this transaction.

(2) Expenses Directly Attributable to the Transactions — The following are non-recurring transaction expenses for professional fees incurred by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2013 associated with the acquisition of Metro Medical and the Target Sellers.

We expect to incur brokerage fees of $1.1 million in connection with our acquisition of the businesses of the Target Sellers, which are not reflected in the pro forma financial statements.

(3) Amortization of Intangible Assets — We amortize intangible assets over their estimated useful lives. We based the estimated useful lives of acquired intangible assets on the amount and timing in which we expect to receive an economic benefit. We assigned these intangible assets a useful life of 3 years based upon a number of factors, including contractual agreements, consumer awareness and economic factors pertaining to the combined companies.

The estimates of fair value and weighted-average useful lives could be impacted by a variety of factors including legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic or other factors. Increased knowledge about these factors could result in a change to the estimate fair value of these intangible assets and/or the weighted-average useful lives from what we have assumed in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In addition, the combined effect of any such changes could result in a significant increase or decrease to the related amortization expense estimates.

The amortization of intangible assets of our planned acquisitions, shown below, assumes that the assets were acquired on January 1, 2013 and amortized over the period associated with each statement of operations.

(4) Interest Expense — Reflects the incremental interest associated with the purchase of Metro Medical, as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2013, less the interest paid in 2013 associated with our convertible note. A note payable was issued to the seller of Metro Medical, in the amount of $1,225,000 on June 30, 2013. This note is payable over 24 months, with a final payment due on August 1, 2015, and bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum. Interest expense in the amount of $26,000 for the six months prior to the acquisition has been provided for in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013. In September 2013, we issued $500,000 principal amount of a convertible note, which converts into our common stock at a 10% discount to the offering price upon the closing of this offering, and recorded interest expense of $12,000 in connection with this convertible note in our historical financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. Interest on this convertible note is eliminated in the pro forma financial statements for the same period as the note is assumed to be converted to our common stock as of January 1, 2013.
(5) Provision (benefit) for Income Tax — The income tax effects reflected in the pro forma adjustments are based on an estimated statutory rate of 34%. We recorded a benefit for taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013 on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations as management believes it is more likely than not that the federal tax benefit will be realized for the following reasons:

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For each of the years ended 2007 through 2012 we generated both net income and taxable income, and our net loss and taxable loss in 2013 was smaller than our net income and taxable income in any of the past six years.
Our loss for tax purposes following the acquisitions of the Target Sellers will be significantly lower than the pro forma operating loss before income tax reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, due in large part to the amortization of intangibles over three years for reporting purposes, versus the 15 year amortization period we will use for tax purposes. In particular, while we reflected $9.2 million of amortization expense on a pro forma basis for 2013, on a tax basis we would only have been able to deduct $1.8 million of amortization expense. This $7.3 million reduction in amortization expense would decrease the 2013 pro forma net loss before tax from $(7.6 million) to $(0.3 million), with no change in operating expenses.
We expect to reduce the Target Sellers’ operating expenses following their acquisition. Although we do not have a history of operating the Target Sellers on a combined basis, our recent experience operating Metro Medical following its acquisition provides evidence that we will be able to reduce operating costs of the Target Sellers, as we were able to reduce directly-identifiable cost from Metro Medical by 52% in six months.
We used a federal tax rate, rather than including state tax, due to uncertainty over what state net operating losses, if any, would be realizable.

In the opinion of the Company it is more likely than not that any tax benefit from a loss in the first year following the acquisition of the Target Sellers would be realized against taxable income generated in future year.

The following table details the pro forma adjustments to income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2013:

Per the terms of our acquisition agreements, the cash consideration paid to the Target Sellers is to subject adjustment based on the offering price of our shares of common stock in this offering. The exact cash consideration will not be known until closing of this offering and may differ by up to 10% from the amounts shown. If the offering price exceeds the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus by   %, the acquisition cash consideration will increase by 10%. If the offering price is   % below the midpoint of the estimated offering price range, the acquisition cash consideration will decrease by 10%.

(8) Assets and Liabilities Not Acquired from Omni: — We adjusted the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet to eliminate approximately $1.5 million of tangible assets held by Omni that we do not expect to acquire, and approximately $1.4 million in liabilities that we do not expect to assume as part of the acquisition of Omni’s assets, which will be accomplished by an asset purchase agreement listing specific assets. The asset purchase agreement anticipates the purchase primarily of Omni’s customer relationships and agreements, as well as fixed assets, unbilled accounts receivable and other tangible assets, but not the purchase of accounts receivable or the assumption of any liabilities.

Assets and Liabilities Not Acquired from Practicare: — We adjusted the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet to eliminate approximately $896.000 of tangible assets held by Practicare that we do not expect to acquire, and approximately $209,000 in liabilities that we do not expect to assume as part of the acquisition of Practicare’s assets, which will be accomplished by an asset purchase agreement listing specific assets. The asset purchase agreement anticipates the purchase primarily of Practicare’s customer relationships and agreements, as well as fixed assets, unbilled accounts receivable and other tangible assets, but not the purchase of accounts receivable or the assumption of any liabilities.

Assets and Liabilities Not Acquired from CastleRock: — We adjusted the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet to eliminate approximately $1.4 million of tangible assets held by CastleRock that we do not expect to acquire, and approximately $1.2 million in liabilities that we do not expect to assume as part of the acquisition of CastleRock’s assets, which will be accomplished by an asset purchase agreement listing specific assets. The asset purchase agreement anticipates the purchase primarily of CastleRock’s customer relationships and agreements, as well as fixed assets, unbilled accounts receivable and other tangible assets, but not the purchase of accounts receivable or the assumption of any liabilities.

Pro Forma Adjustments for Assets and Liabilities Not Acquired: — The following schedule summarizes the adjustments to assets and liabilities on the unaudited condensed combined balance sheets, including all adjustments above as well as adjustments to intangibles and goodwill specified below.

(9) Intangible Assets — We based our preliminary estimates of each intangible asset type/category that we expect to recognize as part of the planned acquisitions on the nature of the businesses and the contracts that we have entered into with the sellers. We also based our estimates on experiences from our prior acquisitions and the types of intangible assets that we recognized as part of those acquisitions. In particular, our experience with our prior acquisitions indicates to us that customer contracts and customer relationships and non-compete agreements compose the significant majority of intangible assets for these types of business. We typically acquire the trademarks and trade names of the businesses we acquire, for defensive purposes, but we do not continue doing business under these names, which typically do not have registered trademarks and are not defensible. We have determined that the value of these trademarks is de minimis and have recorded no value on financial statements. We based the preliminary estimated useful lives of these intangible assets on the useful lives that we have experienced for similar intangible assets in prior acquisitions. However, all of these estimates are preliminary, as we have not completed these acquisitions or analyzed all the facts surrounding the businesses to be acquired and therefore have not been able to finalize the accounting for these transactions.

The figures set forth below reflect the preliminary fair value of intangible assets of the businesses we plan to acquire, and their estimated useful lives. All preliminary estimates for the fair value of intangibles will be refined once the offering is completed and the final list of customers acquired is known.

Intangible Assets of Planned Acquisitions

The value of intangible assets includes $2.0 million of intangible assets recorded on the balance sheets of the businesses we plan to acquire.

The amounts set forth below reflect the estimated acquisition-date fair value of intangible assets for our acquisition of Metro Medical. These intangible assets are already included in our historical consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013.

Customer relationships   $ 904       3 years  
Non-compete agreements     252       3 years  
Total intangible assets   $ 1,156        

For accounting purposes, we use an estimated useful life of three years to amortize these intangible assets, attributing the value of the purchased relationship to the first three years and attributing future customer life to the services provided by the Company.

(10) Purchase Price Allocation/Goodwill — We recognize the assets and liabilities acquired at their fair value on the acquisition date, with any excess in purchase price over these values being allocated to goodwill.

We engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist us in valuing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed via the Metro Medical acquisition. We did not acquire tangible assets in the acquisition of Metro Medical. The valuation of the business acquired and the results of its operations are included in our historical financial statements from the date of the acquisition.

For our three planned acquisitions, management has made an initial fair value estimate of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 31, 2013. These initial estimates will likely differ from the final valuation, once we have consummated the acquisitions and received the valuation report of a third-party specialist; and this difference could be material.

The asset purchase agreements for these acquisitions include the purchase of certain tangible assets and assumption of certain liabilities. We believe that due to the short-term nature of many of the assets acquired that their carrying values, as included in the historical financial statements of the entities, approximate their respective fair values. The acquired goodwill for these acquisitions is primarily related to synergies with our combined businesses and assembled workforce.

A portion of the purchase price for each Target Seller has been allocated to goodwill, even though the purchase price of companies acquired in the past, other than Metro Medical, has been fully allocated to the value of customer relationships and contracts and non-compete agreements with the sellers. The factors which drove our valuation models to allocate a portion of the price to goodwill in the acquisitions of the Target Sellers include the following: (i) the Target Sellers are being purchased at higher multiples to their trailing revenues, and (ii) more employees of each Target Seller will be retained following the acquisitions as compared to acquisitions completed in prior years.

The following table shows the preliminary purchase price, estimated acquisition-date fair values of the to-be-acquired assets and liabilities assumed, non-controlling interest and calculation of goodwill for the businesses we plan to acquire, as of December 31, 2013, the date of our most recent balance sheet. The value of goodwill includes $2.0 million of goodwill recorded on the balance sheets of the businesses we plan to acquire.

Total purchase price allocation   $ 22,027     $ 5,486     $ 7,208     $ 34,721  

The fair value of the shares of our common stock that we plan to issue in connection with our three planned acquisitions is anticipated to be approximately $16.5 million. The purchase prices are based on the actual revenues of the companies in the four quarters ending December 31, 2013, calculated on an assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. Pursuant to the terms of the respective purchase agreements, the purchase price we will pay for each of the Target Sellers will be calculated as a multiple of revenue generated by such Target Seller in the most recent four quarters included in this prospectus from its customers that are in good standing as of the closing date. The fair value adjustment shown above is based on our estimate of revenues at the time of acquisition and our estimate of customer retention rates, which drive the contingent portion of the purchase price, as discussed further below.

The preliminary estimate of equity consideration to be transferred is based on an aggregate value of equity, as stated in the asset purchase agreements, at the price of our common stock to be sold in this offering. The number of shares that will be issued in connection with those acquisitions will be fixed shortly before closing of this offering. For purposes of determining the number of shares to be issued to each Target Sellers, a “Target Share Price” of $10 per share will be utilized, which assumes a valuation in the offering equal to three times the aggregate revenues over the preceding four quarters included in this prospectus. The total equity value for each acquisition will be determined at the time of closing, based on the fixed number of shares and the actual offering price. The cash consideration paid to the Target Sellers will then be increased or decreased by up to 10%, to the extent the actual offering price is greater or less than the Target Share Price.

The amount of goodwill on the date of the acquisition will therefore vary based on the actual price of the offering, since it will impact the value of the shares as well as the amount of cash. If the offering price exceeds the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus by    %, the total purchase price will increase by 10%, and the entire increase will be allocated to goodwill. If the offering price is    % below the midpoint of the estimated offering price range, the total purchase price will decrease by 10%, and such decrease will reduce goodwill by the same amount.

For the Target Sellers, management has made an initial estimate that $9.5 million of goodwill will result from those planned acquisitions. We believe that this amount will be deductible for tax purposes over a period of 15 years. However, these estimates are preliminary, and we have not completed the required tax and legal analyses to finalize our determination of deductibility of goodwill for tax purposes. Accordingly, the values of the goodwill recognized from these planned acquisitions and their deductibility for tax purposes set forth in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements could change and those changes could differ materially from what we present here.

For each Target Seller, we have assumed that revenue from existing customers will be 5% less in the 12 months following closing as compared to the 12 months preceding the closing. This assumption is based on management’s estimate that we will be able to retain customers producing 90% of the revenue of each Target Seller for at least one year following the closing, with customer losses and resulting revenue losses spread evenly over the 12 months following closing.At the time each acquisition is consummated, further analysis of each customer base will be undertaken, and the fair value of the common stock to be issued may be greater or lesser than the amount shown.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, each purchase agreement provides us with the right to cancel a portion of the shares issued to the Target Seller held in escrow in the event revenues from such Target Seller’s customers in the 12 months following the closing are below a specified threshold.In certain situations we also have the obligation to increase the number of shares issued to Target Sellers in the event revenues from the customers of the Target Seller in the 12 months following the closing exceed a specified target. The purchase price adjustment is considered a form of contingent consideration. This contingent consideration arrangement is an equity instrument and it is measured at fair value on the acquisition date and not subsequently remeasured.Any differences between the shares estimated to be issued at acquisition date and shares ultimately issued is accounted for within equity (not reducing the purchase price).

(11) Convertible Note — The principal value of this convertible note, and the contingent redemption feature (which is included in other long term liabilities) have been converted to equity at a 90%
%of the assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, in the pro forma financial statements for the period.
(12) Adjustments to Equity — The following table details the pro forma adjustments to equity accounts.

(14) Weighted Average Shares Outstanding — The pro forma weighted average shares outstanding takes into account our weighted average shares outstanding during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and adds to that number the number of shares of common stock to be issued in connection with acquisition of the Target Sellers as of the beginning of 2013, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, which is the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. In each case, we assume that the shares were issued and became outstanding on January 1, 2013.

Supplemental Information.

For Metro Medical and each of the Target Sellers, we have identified revenue from customers who cancelled their contracts prior to MTBC’s acquisition (or anticipated acquisition) of such customers’ contracts. Such revenue is included in the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements, even though MTBC will not generate revenues from those customers. Pursuant to the terms of the respective purchase agreements, the purchase price we will pay for each of the Target Sellers will be calculated as a multiple of revenue generated by such Target Seller in the most recent four quarters included in this prospectus from its customers that are in good standing as of the closing date.The amount of revenue we have indicated below is based on reports provided, and representations made, by management of the Target Sellers, and we have used the estimates below to compute anticipated acquisition prices for each of the Target Sellers. Actual amounts may differ significantly from the amounts shown based on the date on which the closing occurs and the customers of the Target Sellers that are in good standing at that time.

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding pro forma operations, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, with EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings. EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense (benefit), interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management uses EBITDA as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. We find this especially useful when reviewing pro forma results of operations which include large non-cash amortization of intangibles assets from acquisitions. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the “Selected Historical Consolidated Financial Information” and the “Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and the consolidated historical and pro forma financial statements and the related notes thereto included in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, this discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. Factors that could cause such differences are discussed in “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.” We assume no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements.

Overview

MTBC is a healthcare information technology company that provides a fully integrated suite of proprietary web-based solutions, together with related business services, to healthcare providers practicing in ambulatory settings. Our integrated Software-as-a-Service (or SaaS) platform is designed to help our customers increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs. We employ a highly educated workforce of more than 1,000 people in Pakistan, where we believe labor costs are approximately one-half the cost of comparable India-based employees, thus enabling us to deliver our solutions at competitive prices.

Our flagship offering, PracticePro, empowers healthcare practices with the core software and business services, on one unified SaaS platform, to efficiently operate their businesses, manage clinical workflows and receive timely payment for their services. PracticePro consists of:

Practice management software and related tools, which facilitate the day-to-day operation of a medical practice;
Electronic health record (or EHR) solutions, which allow our customers to reduce paperwork and qualify for government incentives; and
Revenue cycle management (or RCM) services, which includes end-to-end medical billing, analytics, and related services.
Mobile Health (or mHealth) solutions, including smartphone applications that assist patients and healthcare providers in the provision of healthcare services.

Adoption of our solutions requires only a modest upfront expenditure by a provider. Additionally, our financial performance is linked directly to the financial performance of our clients because the vast majority of our revenues is based on a percentage of our clients' collections. The standard fee for our complete, integrated, end-to-end solution is 5% of a practice’s healthcare-related revenues plus a one-time setup fee, and is among the lowest in the industry.

Our growth strategy involves two approaches: acquiring smaller RCM companies and then migrating the customers of those companies to our solutions, as well as partnering with EHR and other vendors that lack an integrated solution and integrating our solutions with their offerings. The RCM service industry is highly fragmented, with many local and regional RCM companies serving small medical practices. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions. We further believe that it is becoming increasingly difficult for traditional RCM companies to meet the growing technology and business service needs of healthcare providers without a significant investment in information technology infrastructure.

We believe we will also be able to accelerate organic growth by partnering with leading industry participants, utilizing them as channel partners to offer integrated solutions to their customers. We have recently entered into arrangements with industry participants from which we expect to begin to derive revenue starting in the mid 2014, including emerging EHR providers and other healthcare vendors that lack a full suite of solutions. We are in the midst of developing application interfaces with two EHR systems as well as a provider of paper-based clinical forms to create integrated offerings.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Our Pakistan operations accounted for approximately 51% of total expenses in 2012 and 48% of those expenses in 2013. A significant portion of those expenses were personnel-related costs (approximately 73% in 2012 as well as in 2013). Because personnel-related costs are significantly lower in Pakistan than in the U.S. and many other offshore locations, we believe our Pakistan operations give us a competitive advantage over many industry participants. All of the medical billing companies that we acquire, including the Target Sellers, use domestic labor or labor from higher cost locations to provide all or a substantial portion of their services. We are able to achieve significant cost reductions as we shift these domestic labor costs to Pakistan.

As of December 31, 2013, approximately 30% of our practices were obtained through strategic transactions with regional RCM companies (before giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers). Since 2006, we have acquired eight RCM companies and entered into outsourcing agreements with two additional RCM companies under which we service all of their customers. During 2012 alone, we acquired four RCM companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct RCM platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. We have been most successful in retaining customers of acquired companies when we have been able to migrate those customers to PracticePro. By migrating acquired customers to PracticePro, we are able to reduce our costs and provide better service, which generally results in increased customer satisfaction and retention rates.

Our prior acquisitions were financed by the respective sellers, with the purchase price being paid over time following the closing of each acquisition, in most instances, pursuant to an unsecured promissory note. In these transactions, we utilized the cash flow generated from the acquired customer accounts as the primary means of satisfying our post-closing payment obligations to the sellers. In addition, with the exception of our most recent acquisition of Metro Medical, the purchase price for our acquisitions was subject to a post-closing reduction based on customer retention. Under these agreements, if customers failed to remain with MTBC beyond a certain period of time, typically one year after the closing, the purchase price would be proportionally decreased based upon the portion of the purchase price allocated to such customer.

During 2012, we acquired four revenue cycle management companies. The relatively small size of these companies (each with less than one million dollars in annual revenues), posed a challenge inasmuch as retaining employees was not practical due to the size of these companies. In addition, many of the customer relationships of the acquired companies were severely strained prior to our involvement. Nevertheless, one year after the respective closings, the average quarterly revenue generated from the customers acquired in our 2012 acquisitions was 85% of the quarterly revenue generated from these customers in the quarter preceding the respective acquisitions.

Most recently, we acquired approximately 85% of the revenue and 93% of the customers of Metro Medical at the close of business on June 30, 2013 for a purchase price of $1.5 million, of which $275,000 was paid in cash at closing with the balance to be paid in 24 monthly installments with the final installment to be paid on August 1, 2015. Based in New York City, Metro Medical provides RCM services to physicians in New York and New Jersey and generated revenues of approximately $3.3 million in 2012, of which approximately $2.7 million represented revenues from the customers we acquired. As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 177 providers we acquired from Metro Medical, representing 90 practices in various specialties, including dermatology and internal medicine. We successfully migrated 74% of the acquired customers to PracticePro within 180 days of closing, and retained 88% of acquired customers as of December 31, 2013, 180 days after the closing.

Upon the closing of our acquisition of the Target Sellers, we will acquire three additional RCM companies, which as of December 31, 2013 served approximately 1,000 providers, representing approximately 500 practices, practicing in over 20 specialties and subspecialties, across 23 states. We intend to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions that we believe will deliver growth in our revenues and profitability and allow us to take advantage of greater economies of scale.

Each acquisition with the Target Sellers has been structured as an asset purchase pursuant to an acquisition agreement that allows us to decrease or increase the share consideration paid to each Target Seller. This adjustment to the share consideration received by each Target Seller is based on the revenues generated from the acquired customers in the 12 months following the closing, as compared to the revenues generated by the Target Seller in the 12 months prior to the closing (or in Omni’s case, in the 12 months prior to the

55


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

execution of the purchase agreement). For each of Omni, Practicare, and CastleRock, no adjustment will be made unless the variance in post-closing revenues is greater than 10%, 5% and 20%, respectively. In each case, the adjustment will either result in additional shares being issued by us to the Target Seller, or the cancellation of shares then held in escrow. No change in the cash consideration will be effected as a result of these adjustments.

Historical Perspective

Although we show pro forma net losses for 2013 giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers, such losses are attributable in part to non-cash expenses for the amortization of intangible assets associated with acquisitions of the Target Sellers. However, on a pro forma basis for this period, EBITDA, which is used by our management as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model, and cash flow from operations, were both positive.

Since our formation in 2001, we have developed our proprietary technology solution, hired 1,000 employees and built redundant facilities in two locations in Pakistan with minimal outside financing. Our success has been achieved by a combination of cost-efficient strategies and revenue growth through acquisitions. Several acquisitions and two outsourcing arrangements were completed with our knowledge that certain customers may terminate soon after acquisition, and in some cases, some customers had already given notice of termination to the companies. However, we structure acquisitions to provide us with a degree of protection against customer loss by means of a post-closing reduction to the purchase price one year following these acquisitions based on customers retained during that period. In two cases, we determined that it was less risky to simply create an outsourcing arrangement, paying referral fees to a troubled company for customers of theirs that we serviced, instead of acquiring their existing customer contracts.

Because many of our acquisitions were completed when we had less resources, the companies whose assets we acquired were often unable to serve the needs of their customers, and we recognized that customer retention would be challenging. However, we negotiated low purchase prices and mechanisms to shift much of the retention risk to the sellers. These transactions allowed us to generate marginal revenues well in excess of marginal costs by utilizing our technology and shifting work to our offshore operations, and allowed us to refine our processes for integrating customers from acquisitions.

Out of eight acquisitions, our purchase of Medical Accounting Billing Company (or MABCO) in February 2010 for $455,000 was the only one that did not perform as expected. Upon the closing of this transaction, most of MABCO’s employees were terminated, as we transitioned customer support and related services to our offshore offices. The MABCO operations and relationship manager we retained was responsible for customer relations and the transitioning of customers to our solution, but suffered an illness soon after closing, becoming incapable of effectively guiding the accounts through the transition. As a result, we eventually lost all of MABCO’s customers and were required to write-off intangible assets in the amount $126,000 in 2012. Notwithstanding this outcome, we were able to generate revenues from MABCO customers of $787,000 in 2010, $460,000 in 2011 and $86,000 in 2012, and due in part to the downward adjustment to the purchase price for this acquisition, we had net positive cash flow attributable to this transaction in the first two years following its closing and over the life of the arrangement.

The two outsourcing arrangements we entered into allowed us to scale our operations more quickly than we could have otherwise done, and resulted in a positive return on our investment, even though they did not provide sustained long-term revenue. For example, in September 2010, we entered into an outsourcing agreement with Medi/Tab, agreeing to pay 34% of revenue received from Medi/Tab’s clients for three years, knowing that Medi/Tab’s largest client, which generated $500,000 of quarterly revenue, had provided notice of termination to Medi/Tab prior to our arrangement. In addition, we were aware that Medi/Tab’s second largest customer, which generated $250,000 of quarterly revenue, was considering terminating its contract with Medi/Tab. However, we were able to help Medi/Tab enforce its contractual termination provisions and generate revenue from the largest customer for six months, and we were able to retain the second largest client for two years. These two customers accounted for $1.6 million of revenue in 2011, $624,000 in 2012 and $17,000 in 2013. While this transaction did not produce significant long-term revenues, it allowed us to reach $10 million in annual revenue by 2011 and resulted in net positive cash flows to us over the life of the arrangement.

Acquisition Strategy and Challenges

Our strategy to become a leading provider of integrated, end-to-end software and business service solutions to healthcare providers practicing in an ambulatory setting is based on our ability to acquire smaller RCM companies as well as generating organic growth. We believe that the RCM market is ripe for consolidation and that our complete end-to-end software and services infrastructure gives our company a unique advantage in this industry consolidation. However, we may experience challenges in implementing our acquisition strategy, including lack of customer demand for our products and services, inability to attract smaller RCM companies for acquisition and failure to integrate acquired customers into our infrastructure. Accordingly, we will draw on our previous experience in operating in the competitive RCM market and integrating acquisitions into our solution in order to successfully manage the challenges we may face.

We believe we can achieve significant cost-savings by merging the operations of the Target Sellers with our after their acquisition, and leveraging our technology and offshore operation in Pakistan, with labor costs that are significantly lower than the Target Sellers’ costs in the U.S. In the past, we have reduced operating costs by terminating employment of the majority of the employees of the acquired companies, terminating or not assuming real property leases, and to the extent necessary, instead utilizing low cost employees based in Pakistan. These actions are generally taken at closing or within one year thereafter. As a result, we believe that an analysis of the historical costs and expenses of the Target Sellers prior to their acquisition will not provide guidance as to the anticipated results after acquisition. We anticipate that we will be able to achieve significant reductions in direct operating costs and selling, general and administrative expenses from the levels incurred by the Target Sellers operating independently, thereby increasing our EBITDA and cash flows.

The key component to each of the Target Seller acquisitions is integrating the acquired clients into our existing infrastructure. To this end, we plan on implementing the strategies and processes learned from both our successes and challenges in prior acquisitions. In particular, our goal is to carefully shift the existing workflow of the Target Sellers’ to our software platform and operational infrastructure located in Pakistan within a period of one year following the closing of this offering. Our experience in previous acquisitions has demonstrated to us the need to carefully analyze the individual needs of each acquired customer when deciding how best to transition their workflow to our operations while minimizing disruptions to their practices.

Following our past acquisitions, some acquired customers terminated their relationships with us. These terminations occurred for a variety of reasons, including because of our transition of workflow from local employees previously assigned to their account to our offshore team members; actual or perceived disruptions to customers’ businesses; our migration of customers from their existing practice management software platform to our solution; and the exacerbation of the strain that already existed in some of the customers’ relationships with the acquired companies. We will seek to address the challenges we have experienced in prior acquisitions by working more closely with acquired customers in the future to understand which combination of software and services is best for their practice. To that end, we plan on retaining a larger portion of the Target Sellers’ existing workforce for a longer period of time than in previous acquisitions, as well as developing integrations with existing software solutions to ensure customer satisfaction and retention.

Due to the competitive and often uncertain nature of our industry, we will also face challenges in our effort to become the leading provider of integrated end to end software and business service solutions to healthcare providers practicing in an ambulatory setting. These challenges may include our inability to provide effective software and RCM solutions to our clients; our competitor’s development of more efficient software and processes; the rising cost of labor, both onshore and offshore, causing us to scale back operations and thus decreasing the level of our customer service; our inability to attract and integrate compatible acquisition targets; and the lack of demand for our products and services despite the increase in our marketing efforts.

Case Study: Metro Medical Acquisition

Our most recent acquisition of Metro Medical’s customers on June 30, 2013 represents our best model of integration to date. It was larger than prior acquisitions and closer in size to the Target Sellers. Because we retained more employees for a longer period of time, transitions went more smoothly.

Acquisition date: June 30, 2013
Acquisition price: $1.5 million (~.5x revenue)

The graphs below illustrate the improvement in operational performance we were able to achieve following our acquisition of Metro Medical due to the use of our technology and low-cost offshore workforce. Q1 and Q2 of 2013 are prior to the acquisition; Q3 and Q4 are subsequent.

(1) Directly identifiable expenses are directly identifiable expenses associated with the corresponding revenue, including compensation expense for Metro Medical employees retained following the acquisition, compensation expense for our employees in Pakistan who exclusively service Metro Medical customers, and directly identifiable general and administrative expenses such as rent, communication, and postage expense associated with Metro Medical’s former offices in New York City. Directly identifiable expenses exclude amortization of intangibles of approximately $32,000 per month, since our objective is to focus on changes in operational performance. It also excludes any allocation of corporate overhead, interest or taxes, because management does not allocate these costs in assessing the performance of its acquisitions.
(2) Contribution margin is equal to revenue minus direct operating costs and directly identifiable general and administrative expenses. Contribution margin reflects the variable expenses we incur as a direct result of acquiring a business. Contribution margin has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it as a substitute for analysis of our results reported under GAAP.

We consider contribution margin to be an effective performance measure with respect to discrete groups of customers, including customers obtained from an acquisition.

Increased contribution margin from a loss to 49% margin after two quarters of MTBC ownership
Cumulative positive cash flow by end of month five; anticipated 100% ROI in 16 months

Key Metrics

In addition to the line items in our financial statements, we regularly review the following key metrics to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends in our business, prepare financial projections, make strategic business decisions, and assess market share trends and working capital needs. We believe information on these metrics is useful for investors to understand the underlying trends in our business.

Set forth below are our key operating and financial metrics for customers using our platform, which excludes acquired customers who have not migrated to our platform. Practices using our platform accounted for approximately 90% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013.

First Pass Acceptance Rate:  We define first pass acceptance rate as the percentage of claims submitted electronically by us to insurers and clearinghouses that are accepted on the first submission and are not rejected for reasons such as insufficient information or improper coding. Clearinghouses are third parties that process the submission of claims to insurers and require compliance with insurance companies’ formatting and other submission rules before submitting those claims. For the purposes of calculating first pass acceptance rate, consistent with industry practice, we exclude claims submitted under real-time adjudication procedures, which are procedures that allow a healthcare provider to determine, at the point of care, if a service they are rendering will be paid. Our first-time acceptance rate is 98% for 2013, which compares favorably to the average of the top twelve payers of approximately 94%, as reported by the American Medical Association.

59


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

First Pass Resolution Rate:  First pass resolution rate measures the percentage of primary claims that are favorably adjudicated and closed upon a single submission. Our first pass resolution rate was approximately 96% for 2013.

Days in Accounts Receivable:  Days in accounts receivable measures the median number of days between the day a claim is submitted by us on behalf of our customer, and the date the claim is paid to our customer. Our clients’ median days in accounts receivable was 30 days for primary care and 35 days for combined specialties as of December 31, 2013, as compared to the national average of 38, as reported by the Medical Group Management Association, an association for professional administrators and leaders of medical group practices. Higher first pass resolution rates and effective follow-up helped us to achieve this rate, which reduces our customers’ collection cycle of claims, leading to increased revenue and customer satisfaction.

Customer Renewal Rate.  Our customer renewal rate measures the percentage of our clients who were a party to a services agreement with us on January 1 of a particular year and continued to operate and be a client on December 31 of the same year. It also includes acquired accounts, if they are a party to a services agreement with the company we acquired and are generating revenue for us, so long as the risk of client loss under the respective purchase agreement has fully shifted to us by January 1 of the particular year. The renewal rate for our PracticePro customers for 2012 and 2013 was 85% each year. The renewal rate for our customers who are also users of our EHR for 2012 and 2013 was 90% each year. The renewal rate for our customers who are meaningful users (i.e., those who successfully attested for meaningful use and earned a bonus) of our EHR for 2012 and 2013 was at least 95% each year. The percentage of our revenue we generated during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 which came from (i) PracticePro clients, was 90% in each year, (ii) all users of our EHR, was 49% and 50%, respectively, and (iii) from meaningful users of our EHR, was 25%, and 27% respectively.

Providers and Practices Served.  As of December 31, 2013, without giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers, we served approximately 1,110 providers (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services), representing approximately 450 practices.

Retention and Migration of Acquired Customers.  With most of our acquisition transactions, our goal is to retain the acquired customers over the long-term and migrate those customers to our platform after closing. During 2012, we acquired four revenue cycle management companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct revenue cycle management platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. One year after acquisition, the average quarterly revenue generated from the customers acquired in our 2012 acquisitions was 85% of the quarterly revenue generated from these customers in the quarter preceding the respective acquisitions. In our recent acquisition of Metro Medical, we successfully migrated 75% of the acquired customers to PracticePro within 180 days of closing, and retained 88% of acquired customers 180 days after the closing.

In our past acquisitions, we experienced customer loss while attempting to migrate customers from their existing practice management software platform to our solution. Some acquired customers terminated their relationships with us due to the transition of workflow from local employees previously assigned to their account to our offshore team members; actual or perceived disruptions to their businesses; and the exacerbation of the strain that already existed in some of the customers’ relationships with the acquired companies. For example, following our 2010 acquisition of the customers of Medical Accounting Billing Company, we retained a key employee of the seller to assist us in transitioning the acquired customers to our solution. However, that employee became disabled by an illness soon after closing, becoming incapable of effectively guiding the accounts through the transition. As a result, we eventually lost all of the acquired customers and were required to write-off intangible assets in the amount $126,000 in 2012. In addition, of the eight practices we acquired in our June 2011 acquisition of a small New Jersey based revenue cycle management company, only two are current customers of ours.

We will seek to address the challenges we have experienced in prior acquisitions by working more closely with acquired customers in the future to understand which combination of software and services is best for their practice. To that end, we plan on retaining a larger portion of the Target Sellers’ existing

workforce for a longer period of time than in previous acquisitions, as well as developing integrations with existing software solutions to ensure customer satisfaction and retention.

Sources of Revenue

We derive our revenues primarily as a percentage of payments collected by our customers that use our comprehensive PracticePro product suite. These payments accounted for 90% of our revenues during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013. Accordingly, key drivers of our revenue include growth in the number of providers using PracticePro, the number of patients served by those providers, and collections by those providers. We also generate revenues from one-time setup fees we charge for implementing PracticePro; the sale of our stand-alone web-based EHR solution, ChartsPro; and from transcription, indexing and other ancillary services.

Seasonality

There is moderate seasonality in our revenues caused by fluctuations in discretionary patient visits to medical practices. The number of patients visiting our customers during the summer and winter holiday seasons is generally lower as compared to other times of the year, which reduces collections one to two months later. In addition, at the start of every year our revenues decrease due to patients’ insurance deductibles, which typically reset in January. The rate of insurance reimbursements offset by deductibles is typically higher in the first three months of every year. Deductibles are typically 8% of billings in the first quarter of the year, and 4% during the remainder of the year. None of our customers accounted for more than 7% of our revenues for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012, and none of our customers accounted for more than 5% of revenues for the 12 months ended December 31, 2013.

Operating Expenses

Direct Operating Cost.  Direct operating costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to our customers, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to our services. Costs associated with the implementation of new customers are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating costs do not include depreciation and amortization, which are broken out separately in the consolidated statements of operations. Our Pakistan operations accounted for approximately 55% of direct operating costs in 2012 and 56% of direct operating costs in 2013. As we grow, we expect to achieve further economies of scale and to see our direct operating costs decrease as a percentage of revenue.

Selling and Marketing Expense.  Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits, commissions, travel and advertising expenses. These have been relatively low in the past (under 3% of our revenue), as we have often found it to be more economical to grow by the acquisition of other medical billing companies than by engaging in directed marketing efforts to prospective customers. However, going forward, we intend to invest in marketing, business development and sales resources to expand our market share, building on our existing customer base. As a result, we expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase as a percentage of revenue in the future.

Research and Development Expense.  Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related costs and third-party contractor costs. Because we incorporate our technology into our services as soon as technological feasibility is established, such costs are currently expensed as incurred. We expect our research and development expense to increase in the future in absolute terms but decrease as a percentage of revenue. Consistent with our growth plans, we are hiring developers, analysts and project managers in an effort to streamline our operational processes and further develop our products. We believe that the continued automation of our workflow will lead to an increase in our revenue through the efficient submission of insurance claims for our customers as well as a reduction in our operating costs.

General and Administrative Expense.  General and administrative expenses consists primarily of personnel-related expense for administrative employees, including compensation, benefits, travel, occupancy and insurance, software license fees and outside professional fees. We expect that general and administrative expense will increase in absolute terms for the foreseeable future as we incur additional expense inherent in becoming a publicly-traded company, including increased legal fees, accounting fees, and investor relations costs. Our Pakistan office accounted for approximately 47% of general and administrative expenses in 2012

61


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

and 43% of general and administrative expenses in 2013. Though expenses are expected to continue to rise in absolute terms, we expect general and administrative expense to decline as a percentage of overall revenues as revenues increase.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense.  Depreciation expense is charged using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Depreciation for computers is calculated over three years, while remaining assets (except leasehold improvements) are depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the lease term or the economic life of those assets.

Amortization expense is charged on a straight-line basis over a period of three years for intangible assets acquired in connection with acquisitions, including customer contracts and relationships and covenants not to compete, as well as purchased software. We concluded that three years reflects the period during which the economic benefits are expected to be realized, and that the straight-line method is appropriate as the majority of the cash flows are expected to be recognized ratably over that period without significant degradation.

Our acquisition of four medical billing companies during 2012 and one in 2013 added $1,361,000 and $1,160,000 of intangibles to our balance sheet, respectively, resulting in additional amortization of $711,000 in 2013 compared to 2012.

Interest and Other Income (Expense).  Interest expense consists primarily of interest costs related to our working capital line of credit, term loans and notes issued in connection with acquisitions, offset by interest income on investments. Our other income (expense) results from foreign currency transaction gains/losses, and amounted to $153,000 and $200,000 in 2012 and 2013, respectively.

Income Tax.  In preparing our financial statements, we estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and liabilities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense and related disclosures. We base our estimates, assumptions and judgments on historical experience, current trends and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. On a regular basis, we review our accounting policies, estimates, assumptions and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this prospectus, and, of those policies, we believe that the accounting policies discussed below involve the greatest degree of complexity and exercise of judgment by our management. The methods, estimates and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations. Accordingly, we believe the policies described below are the most critical for understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable.

Since our customers do not run our software on their own hardware or that of a third party, and do not have the right to take possession of the software at any time, the two criteria required for an offering to be considered to include a software element as required by ASC 985-605, Software — Revenue Recognition, are not met. As a result, the Company recognizes revenue as a service for all of its offerings in accordance with service revenue guidance at ASC 605-20.

62


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We bill our customers on a monthly basis, in arrears. Approximately 90% of our revenues come from our comprehensive PracticePro product suite, which includes revenue cycle management, electronic health records and practice management services. The fees charged to customers for the services provided under our PracticePro service suite are normally based upon a percentage of collections posted during the month. We do not recognize revenue for PracticePro service fees until we have received notification that a claim has been accepted and the amount which the physician will collect is determined, as the fees are not fixed and determinable until such time.

As it relates to up-front fees charges to PracticePro customers at the outset of an arrangement, we charge a set fee which includes account set up, creating a web site for the customer, establishing credentials, and training the customer’s office staff. This service does not have standalone value, separate from the ongoing revenue cycle management, electronic health records and practice management services. The up-front fees are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated customer relationship period (currently estimated to be 5 years).

We also generate revenue from a variety of ancillary services, including transcription services, patient statement services, coding services, platform usage fees for clients using third-party platforms, rebates received from third-party platforms, and consulting fees. Ancillary services are charged at a fixed fee per unit of work, such as per line transcribed or per patient statement prepared, and we recognize revenue monthly as we perform the services.

Our revenue arrangements generally do not include a general right of return relative to our services provided.

Business Combinations

We account for our business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations (ASC 805-10), which requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations, and have concluded that each of the businesses whose assets were acquired or are to be acquired constitute a business in accordance with ASC 805-10-55.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including non-controlling interests, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, we record the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in the fair value after the acquisition date affecting earnings. Changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the measurement period will affect income tax expense.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets, including customer relationships and the value of agreements not to compete arising from our various acquisitions, are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and are amortized using a method which reflects the pattern in which the economic benefit of the related intangible asset is utilized, which has been estimated to be three years. For intangible assets subject to amortization, impairment is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset.

The customer relationships and associated contracts represent the most significant portion of the value of the purchase price for each of our acquisitions. All acquisitions to date have been asset purchases in which we did not acquire tangible assets (fixed assets, accounts receivable, cash, etc.), or liabilities, and none of the acquired companies had developed substantial technology.

Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. We expect to record goodwill in connection with the acquisition of the Target Sellers. With those acquisitions, goodwill will be evaluated for impairment using a two-step process that will be performed at least annually in October of each year, or whenever events or circumstances indicate that

63


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

impairment may have occurred. The first step is a comparison of the fair value of an internal reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. We integrate all acquired businesses with our core business and utilize a single technology platform, and have a chief operating decision maker, which is the our Chief Executive Officer, who monitors and reviews financial information at a consolidated level for assessing operating results and the allocation of resources. Therefore we have a single reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired and the second step is unnecessary.

If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to a determination of the implied value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is greater that the implied value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. The implied value of goodwill is determined as of the test date by performing a purchase price allocation, as if the reporting unit had just been acquired, using currently estimated fair values of the individual assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, together with an estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit taken as a whole. The estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit is based upon information available regarding prices of similar groups of assets, or other valuation techniques including present value techniques based upon estimates of future cash flow.

As of December 31, 2013, we had goodwill and intangible assets totaling $1.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recorded impairment charges of $126,000, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. These impairment charges were due to the loss of customers we acquired from Medical Accounting Billing Company, Inc. in 2010, which primarily resulted from the unexpected loss of a local relationship manager due to illness following that acquisition. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the year ended December 31, 2013.

There are many assumptions and estimates used that directly impact the results of impairment testing, including an estimate of future expected revenues, earnings and cash flows, and discount rates applied to such expected cash flows in order to estimate fair value. We have the ability to influence the outcome and ultimate results based on the assumptions and estimates we choose for testing. To mitigate undue influence, we set criteria that are reviewed and approved by senior management. The determination of whether or not goodwill or acquired intangible assets have become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of our reporting unit. Changes in our strategy or market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of intangible assets.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, as prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes, which recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the 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 on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. We record net deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets will more likely than not be realized. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. This assessment requires judgment as to the likelihood and amounts of future taxable income by tax jurisdiction.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2013, our deferred tax assets consisted primarily of state net operating loss carry forwards, and temporary differences between the book and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2013 the Company has a valuation allowance against the state net operating loss carry forwards in the amount of $82,000.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We will account for stock-based compensation to employees, including grants of employee stock awards and purchases under employee stock purchase plans, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires that share-based payments (to the extent they are compensatory) be recognized in our consolidated statements of operations based on their fair values. We will recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award.

In 2014 we issued Restricted Stock Units to key executives and members of our Board of Directors, none of which will vest at the time of this offering. The expected compensation charges at the time of the IPO, (assuming an initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), is $           .

Revenue.  Total revenue for 2013 was $10.5 million, an increase of $456,000 or 5% from revenue of $10.0 million for 2012. Total revenue for 2013 included $8.8 million of revenue from existing customers and $1.7 million of revenue from new customers. In comparison, total revenue for 2012 included $8.2 million of revenue from existing customers and $1.9 million of revenue from new customers. Of the $1.7 million of revenues from new customers for 2013, $1.5 million was attributable to customers of Metro Medical acquired on June 30, 2013, with the remaining revenue coming from customers acquired organically.

Revenue from new customers in 2013 offset a reduction of $607,000 in revenues during the period resulting from the loss of a large customer we acquired in an outsourcing arrangement with Medi/Tab in 2010 that was no longer a customer of ours in 2013. At the time we entered into this transaction, management recognized that we would not be providing services to those customers on a long-term basis, and structured

Direct Operating Cost.  Direct operating cost for 2013 was $4.3 million, essentially flat with direct operating cost for 2012. Salary cost in the U.S. increased by $386,000 from $778,000 in 2012 to $1.2 million in 2013, due to the acquisition of Metro Medical on June 30, 2013. We have since reduced personnel from Metro Medical, from 54 employees on June 30, 2013 to 13 employees on December 31, 2013. This increase in salary cost was offset by a reduction in referral fees by $421,000, from $544,000 in 2012 to $123,000 in 2013, as less revenue came from the Medi/Tab outsourcing arrangement requiring referral fees.

Selling and Marketing Expense.  Selling and marketing expense for 2013 was $249,000, a decrease of $17,000 or 6% from selling and marketing expenses of $266,000 for 2012. This decrease was due in part to lower spending on marketing and promotions.

General and Administrative Expense.  General and administrative expense for 2013 was $4.7 million, an increase of $346,000, or 8%, from general and administrative expenses of $4.4 million for 2012. Salary expense in the U.S. increased by $238,000, from $838,000 in 2012 to $1.1 million in 2013, due to the acquisition of Metro Medical. Legal and consulting fees increased by $241,000 in 2013 due to the acquisition of Metro Medical and planned acquisitions of the Target Sellers, as well as spending in preparation for the initial public offering. This was partly offset by an impairment charge of $126,000 recorded in 2012.

Research and Development Expense.  Research and development expense for 2013 was $386,000, essentially flat as compared to research and development expense of $396,000 for 2012.

Depreciation.  Depreciation for 2013 was $234,000, a decrease of $29,000 from depreciation of $263,000 for 2012.

Amortization Expense.  Amortization expense for 2013 was $715,000, an increase of $299,000 or 72% over amortization expense of $416,000 for 2012. This increase resulted from an increase in our intangible assets in connection with our acquisitions during 2012 and 2013, which are being amortized over three years.

Interest Income.  Interest income for 2013 was $24,000, essentially flat with 2012.

Interest Expense.  Interest expense for 2013 was $160,000, an increase of $63,000 over 2012. This increase was primarily due to notes payable issued to the former owners of businesses acquired in 2012 and 2013.

Other Income.  Other income for 2013 was $230,000, compared to other income of $169,000 for 2012. Other income in both periods is primarily attributable to foreign currency transaction gains.

Income Tax Provision.  There was a $145,000 provision for income taxes for 2013, compared to approximately $0 for 2012. The tax provision was generated based on estimated 2013 effective tax rates and jurisdictional earnings mix, with taxable income in some jurisdictions despite a net loss on a consolidated basis. A valuation allowance was taken against deferred state tax assets because it is more likely than not, based on three years of cumulative losses at the state level, that they will not be realized. Pre-tax income decreased from $117,000 in 2012 to a pre-tax loss of ($33,000) for 2013.

Revenues.  Pro forma 2013 revenues are $33 million, which includes $1.4 million of revenue generated from former customers of Metro Medical and the Target Sellers who were no longer customers of each respective company prior to our acquisition. Accordingly, these pro forma revenues may not be reflective of the actual revenues we will generate from the customers we acquired or will acquire in these acquisitions.

Direct Operating Cost.  Pro forma direct operating costs are 51% of revenue, significantly higher than our historical range of 41% to 45%. We believe that by utilizing our technology and offshore labor force, we will be able to reduce direct operating costs as a percentage of the revenue we generate from customers of the acquired companies.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense.  Pro forma direct selling, general and administrative expense is 42% of revenue, at the low end of our historical range of 40% to 48%.

Research and Development Expense.  Pro forma research and development expense is 1% of revenue, significantly less than our historical 4%, which is reflective of our investment in our proprietary technology.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense.  Pro forma depreciation and amortization is 29% of revenue, significantly higher than our historical rates of 5% to 9%, due to amortization of intangibles from the acquisitions of the Target Sellers.

Operating Income (Loss).  Pro forma operating loss is (23%) of revenue, compared with our historical operating income ranging from an operating loss of (2%) to operating income of 6% of revenue. The pro forma results assume no change in the historical revenues or operating costs of the Target Sellers, except for the increase of depreciation and amortization, which increases from 7% to 29% of revenue.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization.  Pro forma EBITDA is 7% of revenue, compared to our historical range of 9% to 13% of revenue. The pro forma results assume no change in the historic revenues or operating costs of the Target Sellers.

We have historically consolidated operations of acquired businesses and reduced operating costs by terminating employment of the majority of the employees of the acquired companies, terminating or not assuming real property leases, and to the extent possible, utilizing low cost employees based in Pakistan. These actions are generally taken at closing or within a year thereafter, and we intend to do the same with the

Target Sellers. Accordingly, an analysis of revenues, costs and expenses of the Target Sellers prior to their acquisition may not provide meaningful guidance as to the anticipated results after acquisition.

We expect that in the long-term, the proportional reductions in direct operating cost of the Target Sellers and future companies we acquire due to moving work offshore will be similar to our experience with Metro Medical, but will not be as extensive as the reductions in operating costs we achieved in connection with acquisitions we completed in previous years. Because we are acquiring all three Target Sellers simultaneously, we expect that the pace of cost reductions will be slower as compared to cost reductions we effected following our acquisition of Metro Medical.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Quarterly Trends and Seasonality

Our overall operating results fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of a variety of factors, some of which are outside of our control. Our revenue growth in the third and fourth quarters of 2013 was primarily a result of our acquisition of Metro Medical, which was effective June 30, 2013. We also made smaller acquisitions which contributed to revenue increases in the second and third quarters of 2012, offsetting a decline in revenue in excess of $200,000 attributable to a large customer we acquired in an outsourcing arrangement with Medi/Tab in 2010 that is no longer a customer of ours.

Because we earn ongoing fees, a large percentage of each quarter’s revenue comes from clients that contributed to the revenues of the preceding quarter. The vast majority of our clients pay for services as a percentage of collections received, so our revenue is highly correlated with the underlying collections of our clients. There are seasonal factors that affect the total volume of patients seen and billed by our clients, which in turn impacts their collections and our revenue. The first quarter of each calendar year typically results in lower revenue for three reasons:

annual insurance deductibles mean that some claims which are accepted are not fully reimbursed by insurance, and collections are delayed by 60 days or more as patients are billed for their deductible after receiving an explanation from insurance
some doctors are slow in submitting claims at the beginning of the year, in an effort to shift deductibles to hospitals or other practices, to reduce the amount they must collect directly from patients (since patient payments are slower and are not always received)
there is a reduction of office visits by patients during the end-of-year holiday season, resulting in lower collections during the first quarter

Our quarterly direct operating costs and our general and administrative expenses increased whenever we purchased another RCM company. As we migrate clients to our technology and utilize our low-cost offshore workforce, costs and expenses typically decrease one or two quarters after each acquisition. Our historical results should not be considered a reliable indicator of our future results of operations.

Some of the increase in general and administrative expense in the second half of 2013 was due to expenses in preparation for becoming a public company.

Our depreciation and amortization expenses increased primarily as a result of the increase in intangible assets resulting from each acquisition subject to amortization.

Supplemental Information

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with GAAP, with EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure of earnings. EBITDA represents net income before income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management uses EBITDA as a financial measure to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use this non-GAAP financial measure to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measure in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

To date, our operations have been funded primarily by loans from our founder and principal stockholder, borrowings from commercial lenders and cash flow from operations. We believe our current cash, cash flow from operations, amounts available under our revolving line of credit and the net proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditure and acquisition financing requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Operating Activities

Cash provided from operating activities was $929,000 during 2013, up $370,000 from $559,000 during 2012. Net income decreased by $295,000 in part due to higher operating expenses during the third quarter of 2013 resulting from the acquisition of Metro Medical, while non-cash adjustments of depreciation, amortization and impairment increased by $144,000. Accounts receivable increased by $22,000, compared with an increase of $119,000 in 2012. Accounts payable and other liabilities grew by $190,000, compared with a decrease of $80,000 in 2012.

Investing Activities

We have grown through acquisitions, and historically have structured acquisitions in a way that minimizes upfront cash outlays and relies primarily on promissory notes payable to the sellers. The acquisition of the Target Sellers is contemplated to be financed with a combination of cash and stock, to be issued upon the closing of this offering.

After completion of each acquisition, we have generally restructured operations of the acquired company, reducing costs by shifting labor costs from the U.S. to Pakistan. This has allowed us to minimize the cash used in investing activities and provides us with financing largely serviced by cash flow from the businesses acquired. We anticipate that there will be additional opportunities to acquire similar businesses in the future, and management will evaluate each opportunity for future profitability and cash flow potential. Future acquisitions may be financed by a combination of equity, debt, promissory notes issued to the sellers and/or cash on hand. There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve the same level of cost savings in the future or do so as quickly as we have in the past.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Cash used in investing activities during 2013 was $706,000, an increase of $350,000 over $356,000 during 2012. Net advances made to our founder and principal stockholder were $154,000 during 2013, compared with $116,000 of net repayments of advances from our founder and principal stockholder in 2012. Cash used for acquisitions during the period decreased by $44,000, from $319,000 to $275,000, and capital expenditures increased by $133,000.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities during 2013 was $33,000, compared to $328,000 cash used by financing in 2012. We borrowed a net of $885,000 from our founder and principal stockholder, which was used to finance IPO-related costs and to make payments related to our 2012 acquisitions, and issued a $500,000 convertible note during 2013. During 2013, there was a $338,000 increase in net repayments on loans from acquisitions and $198,000 in additional borrowings from our line of credit with TD Bank compared to 2012. Average monthly borrowings from the line of credit were $427,000 in 2013 compared to $386,000 in 2012.

Credit Facilities

Line of Credit

We obtained a $400,000 revolving line of credit from TD Bank in January 2011, which was increased to $750,000 in March 2012, and to $1,215,000 on September 30, 2013. The line of credit bears interest at a variable rate equal to the Wall Street Journal prime rate from time to time in effect plus 1% (4.25% as of December 31, 2013). The line of credit is collateralized by all of our assets and is guaranteed by our founder and principal stockholder. The outstanding balance on the line of credit was $571,000 as of December 31, 2012, $1.0 million as of December 31, 2013, and $1.2 million on February 28, 2014. The line of credit will terminate and amounts thereunder will become payable on August 29, 2014 unless it is further extended by the lender.

Founder Loan

In February 2013, our founder and principal stockholder advanced us a loan of $1,000,000, of which a portion was used to repay the outstanding balance on our revolving credit line with TD Bank. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0%. The outstanding principal of this loan, currently in the amount of $736,000, together with accrued interest, is due in one installment on July 5, 2015.

Convertible Loan

In September 2013, we issued a $500,000 convertible note to an accredited investor, which bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0%. Upon the completion of this offering, the outstanding principal of this loan, together with accrued interest, will be automatically converted into shares of the our common stock, with the number of shares to be issued upon conversion equal to the quotient of (a) the aggregate amount of outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest on this note on the closing date of this offering, divided by (b) ninety percent (90%) of the offering price. All outstanding principal plus accrued and unpaid interest on this note will be due in one installment on March 23, 2016 if we don’t close this offering by that date. At the time of issuance of this loan, $39,000 of the principal value was considered to be the value of the embedded derivative (the conversion feature) and has been recorded in equity. One thirtieth of this amount is accreted monthly until this offering closes, and is considered a non-cash interest expense.

Mahmud Haq, our Chief Executive Officer, has also committed, if necessary, to contribute additional capital up to $400,000. It is not anticipated that these commitments will be necessary following the closing of this offering.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2012 and 2013 we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Other than our operating leases for office space, computer equipment and other property, we do not engage in off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

In February 2013, the FASB issued amended guidance on the disclosure of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments to the previous guidance require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations.

JOBS Act

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an “emerging growth company” we are irrevocably electing not to take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the

72


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

JOBS Act for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies.

However, as an “emerging growth company”, we intend to rely on exemptions available under the JOBS Act under which we will not be required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOB regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our initial public offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Foreign currency exchange risk.  Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in the Pakistan rupee. None of our consolidated revenues are earned outside the United States. In 2012 and 2013, 51% and 48%, respectively, of our total expenses occurred in our subsidiary in Pakistan and were incurred in Pakistan rupees. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could harm our business in the future. Because a significant portion of our expenses is incurred outside the United States but our revenue is denominated in U.S. dollars, a 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have a 5% adverse impact on our costs, which would cause our margins to differ materially from expectations.

As our scale grows, our risks associated with fluctuation in currency rates will become greater, and we will continue to reassess our approach to managing this risk. To date, we have not entered into any foreign currency hedging contracts, and we have no immediate plans to do so in the near future.

Liquidity risk.  As of December 31, 2012 we held approximately $220,000 of cash in a bank in Pakistan and we held approximately $440,000 of cash in this bank on December 31, 2013. The banking system in Pakistan does not provide deposit insurance coverage. We generally wire funds to Pakistan from the U.S. near the end of each month to be used for payroll and other operating expenses in the following month, with the payroll payments being made by our Pakistani subsidiary in the first week of such month.

We have a transfer pricing agreement with our Pakistani subsidiary, and our Pakistani subsidiary is required under applicable law to generate an arms-length profit. Accordingly, monthly payments due from us to our Pakistani subsidiary for the services it provides to us are in an amount sufficient for it to generate a profit. However, our actual payments to our Pakistani subsidiary for these services are in a lesser amount, which covers just the actual costs incurred by our subsidiary. The excess amount owed by us but not paid to our Pakistani subsidiary is treated as a dividend from the Pakistani subsidiary to us. Accordingly, we record a current tax liability on our financial statements to cover U.S. taxes on that dividend. We plan to repatriate all earnings and profits generated by our Pakistani subsidiary. Therefore, we recognize a deferred tax liability on the cumulative balance of earnings and profits, as reduced by the amount treated as a dividend, at the federal tax rate.

Impact of inflation.  We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. To date, inflationary pressures experienced by our operations in Pakistan, which are funded by revenues we generate in the U.S., have been offset by declines in the Pakistan rupee to U.S. dollar exchange rate. However, if our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we might not be able to offset these higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Related Party Transactions

We have engaged in a number of related party transactions. See the notes to our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, as well as “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” included in this prospectus.

BUSINESS

Overview

MTBC is a healthcare information technology company that provides a fully integrated suite of proprietary web-based solutions, together with related business services, to healthcare providers practicing in ambulatory settings. Our integrated SaaS platform is designed to help our customers thrive in the midst of the rapidly changing healthcare industry, which is being reshaped by the Affordable Care Act or other legal and industry developments. Our solutions enable our clients to increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs. We employ a highly educated workforce of approximately 1,050 people in Pakistan, where we believe labor costs are approximately one-half the cost of comparable India-based employees, thus enabling us to deliver our solutions at competitive prices. As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 1,110 healthcare providers, and after giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers, we will serve approximately 2,110 providers.

Our flagship offering, PracticePro, empowers healthcare practices with the core software and business services, on one unified SaaS platform, to efficiently operate their businesses, manage clinical workflows and receive timely payment for their services. PracticePro consists of:

Practice management software and related tools and applications, which facilitate the day-to-day operation of a medical practice;
Electronic health record (or EHR) solutions, which allow our customers to reduce paperwork and qualify for government incentives;
Revenue cycle management (or RCM) services, which includes end-to-end medical billing, analytics, and related services; and
Mobile Health (or mHealth) solutions, including smartphone applications that assist patients and healthcare providers in the provision of healthcare services.

Several emerging trends, such as the shift to quality-based reimbursement, the emerging focus on improving the coordination of care, and the increased reporting requirements of both government entities and commercial insurers, are creating incentives for healthcare providers to implement technologies that help them meet the needs of the changing healthcare environment. Adoption of EHR solutions is accelerating as more providers realize the benefits of using technology solutions. Government initiatives and legislation have provided additional financial incentives and implementation support for healthcare providers to adopt EHR solutions. We believe that with our fully integrated, end-to-end solution and cost-effective offshore model, we are competitively positioned to penetrate the ambulatory healthcare IT market and to take advantage of these trends.

We believe that our ability to offer an integrated suite of SaaS solutions at attractive prices provides us with a significant competitive advantage, particularly in comparison to regional RCM companies who generally offer a limited range of services. For instance, in addition to our core offerings of practice management, EHR and RCM software, we also provide integrated clinical decision support tools, insurance eligibility verification, patient engagement and education materials as part of our base set of solutions, which our customers can utilize at no additional cost. We also offer coding, consulting and transcription as a separate set of billed services. We believe that our broad range of solutions increases our ability to attract and retain customers over the long term. For example, customers utilizing our practice management and RCM services together with our EHR solution renew their contracts with us at higher rates than customers who do not utilize our EHR solution.

As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 450 practices representing approximately 1,110 providers (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services), practicing in approximately 50 specialties and subspecialties, in 36 states. Pro forma for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, as of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 950 practices representing approximately 2,110 providers, practicing in approximately 50 specialties and subspecialties, in 40 states. As of December 31, 2012, we served

74


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

approximately 400 practices representing approximately 1,320 providers, practicing in approximately 55 specialties and subspecialties, in 39 states. Approximately 98% of the practices we serve consist of one to ten providers, with the majority of the practices we serve being primary care providers. However, our solutions are scalable and are appropriate for larger healthcare practices across a wide range of specialty areas. In fact, our largest customer is a hospital-based group with more than 120 providers. We have no significant customer concentration and no individual customer, either before or after the acquisition of the Target Sellers, accounts for more than ten percent of our revenue.

Our growth strategy primarily involves acquiring smaller RCM companies and then migrating the customers of those companies to our solutions. The RCM service industry is highly fragmented, with many local and regional RCM companies serving small medical practices. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions. We estimate that there are more than 1,500 companies in the United States providing RCM services and that no one company has more than a 5% share of the market. We further believe that it is becoming increasingly difficult for traditional RCM companies to meet the growing technology and business service needs of healthcare providers without a significant investment in information technology infrastructure.

Since 2006, we have acquired eight RCM companies and entered into agreements with two additional RCM companies under which we service all of their customers. During 2012, we acquired four RCM companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct RCM platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. Most recently, we acquired customers comprising approximately 85% of the revenue of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. on June 30, 2013 for a purchase price of $1.5 million, of which $275,000 was paid in cash at closing with the balance to be paid in 24 monthly installments with the final installment to be paid in August, 2015. Based in New York City, Metro Medical provides RCM services to physicians in New York and New Jersey and generated revenues of approximately $3.3 million in 2012, of which approximately $2.7 million represented revenues from the customers we acquired. As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 177 providers we acquired from Metro Medical, representing 90 practices in various specialties, including dermatology and internal medicine.

In 2013, 36% of our revenues were generated from customers who were obtained through strategic transactions with regional RCM companies. The standard fee for our complete, integrated, end-to-end solution is 5% of a practice’s healthcare-related revenues plus a one-time setup fee, and is among the lowest in the industry. For the year ended December 31, 2013, without giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers, our total revenue was $10.5 million, our net income was ($178,000), and our EBITDA was $1,052,000. For information on how we define and calculate EBITDA, and a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA, see the section titled “— Summary Consolidated Financial — Other Financial Data.” Pro forma for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, our total revenue for year ended December 31, 2013 was $33.1 million, net loss was ($5.0 million), and EBITDA was $2.2 million.

Industry Overview

The American healthcare industry is in a state of transformation. According to a recent report issued by the Institute of Medicine, approximately $2.6 trillion was spent in the United States on healthcare in 2011, of which $750 billion was wasteful spending that does not improve the quality of care that patients receive. An April 2012 study cited by Health Affairs, a health policy journal, estimates that between $476 billion and $992 billion of healthcare spending in 2011 was wasted, with a third of that waste being funded by Medicare and Medicaid programs. Healthcare spending in the United States is widely viewed as growing at an unsustainable rate, and policymakers and payers are continuously seeking ways to reduce that growth.

Presently, there are more than 500,000 U.S. physicians practicing in ambulatory care settings and it is estimated that approximately 70% of these providers are practicing in groups with 10 or fewer physicians. For decades, the U.S. healthcare delivery system has been characterized by a vast cottage industry of small, independent practices functioning in a fee-for-service environment. However, as a result of both incentives and burdensome requirements placed on healthcare providers by government officials and commercial payers in response to increased healthcare spending and related waste, healthcare providers are beginning to consolidate their practices, better coordinate their services and reduce costs associated with redundancy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Legislative Reform

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that the signing of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 will increase the number of nonelderly Americans with health insurance by approximately 32 million by 2016. This increase puts pressure on government officials to contain the costs of Medicare and Medicaid programs and to reduce expenses associated with redundancy by promoting new delivery models like Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Shared Savings programs that reward healthcare providers for managing care in a cost-efficient manner. The ACO model encourages consolidating the provision of care and replaces the fee-for-service payment model which rewarded the quantity of services provided with a performance-based model that seeks to reward quality of care and outcomes, not simply volume.

The federal government has also enacted a financial incentive program through the 2009 Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (HITECH Act) for healthcare providers who demonstrate “meaningful use” of a certified electronic health records technology. Under the HITECH Act, subject to sequestration adjustments, healthcare providers that demonstrate “meaningful use” could, before giving effect to any sequester cuts, earn bonuses totaling up to $44,000 over five years through Medicare and up to $63,750 over six years through Medicaid. Eligible providers that do not demonstrate meaningful use will face a penalty in the form of a reduction in reimbursement beginning in 2015. Although these payment programs are of limited duration, we believe they have shifted buying patterns since they were instituted, with many healthcare providers accelerating their purchase of EHRs. We expect that these incentives, together with reductions in Medicare reimbursement that will be imposed starting in 2015 for failure to demonstrate meaningful use, will continue to drive EHR adoption.

The federal focus on quality of care and a compensation model that rewards performance instead of volume will inevitably force providers and their staff to focus more time on patient care and quantifying outcomes, putting even more pressure on medical providers to better manage their administrative functions and straining their profitability. In keeping with the focus on quality care, CMS has initiated the Physician Quality Reporting System, which is a reporting program that provides an incentive for participating and penalties for failure to do so for eligible providers. Providers must report data on quality measure for covered Physician Fee Schedule services furnished to Medicare Part B beneficiaries. We believe that practice management, EHR and clinical software tools and technologies which engage patients more actively in the rendering of their care will allow providers to better measure and report this data to obtain government incentives and avoid penalties.

Increasing Reimbursement Complexity and Barriers

Both commercial and governmental payers have increased their scrutiny of medical bills submitted by healthcare providers for payment, requiring detailed notes, precise modifiers, and timely follow up. Increasing complexity in the reimbursement process, such as changes in claims coding standards, have placed additional administrative burdens on providers. In particular, the implementation of International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (commonly referred to as ICD-10-CM) in October 2015, will increase the number of possible medical codes to be used by healthcare providers for classifying diagnoses and reasons for medical visits from approximately 13,000 codes to in excess of 68,000 codes. In addition, commercial payers continually update their reimbursement rules based on ongoing monitoring of consumption patterns, in response to new medical products and procedures, and to address changing employer demands.

Further complicating the reimbursement process for healthcare providers is the recent proliferation of health plan designs. Health insurers have introduced a wide range of benefit structures, many of which are customized to the unique goals of particular employer groups. This has resulted in an increase in rules regarding who is eligible for reimbursement for healthcare services, what healthcare services are eligible for reimbursement, and who is responsible to pay for healthcare services delivered. Customized health plans have also resulted in more plans that require a larger portion of patient responsibility, such as High Deductible Health Plans or plans with little coverage other than negotiated discounts, thereby increasing the burden on practices to manage and pursue receivables directly with the patient.

Providers who are not leveraging an EHR system with RCM and practice management solutions will be forced to invest a great deal of time and money to accurately and timely submit claim information,

76


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

aggressively follow up on claims, and stay up to date on all the latest submission regulations and requirements, which vary by payer. Without the proper tools, many medical providers will not be able to keep abreast of advances in medicine and at the same time manage the increasing complexity of their practices.

Traditional Practice Tools Are Not Well-Suited to the Modern Medical Practice

Today’s typical medical practice confronts a multitude of administrative tasks with respect to each patient encounter, beginning with scheduling the patient’s appointment, and continuing with documentation and insurance verification requirements upon arrival, clinical documentation of the visit, and claim submission and follow-up. With the significant additional burdens placed on healthcare providers by the changing environment, the adoption of innovative software solutions are critical to providers, as legacy systems may not adequately support their needs. In particular, locally installed software applications utilized by many providers are often not sufficiently comprehensive, and routine upgrades to these systems that are required as the healthcare industry changes are more difficult to effect as compared to web-based solutions.

Despite increasingly advancing clinical technologies, the administrative functions of the healthcare industry, and particularly for smaller medical offices, are largely antiquated. Many healthcare providers satisfy these administrative tasks by both hiring staff and purchasing multiple pieces of software, or by outsourcing their needs to third party RCM and practice management companies. Many providers outsource these tasks to a variety of vendors, engaging different vendors for each of their practice management, EHR and RCM needs. This piecemeal approach presents challenges to providers who are required to familiarize themselves with multiple vendors and disparate systems with different styles and interfaces to handle day-to-day items. Moreover, the disparate software systems utilized by a practice generally do not effectively communicate with each other, and providers find themselves having to spend additional time dealing with IT issues for which they are ill-equipped to resolve.

As medical groups and entities evolve and emerge into coordinated delivery systems, and providers are under increased pressure to obtain quantifiably successful outcomes for patients, demand will further increase for robust technologies that fill the needs for the creation, storage, analysis and reporting of healthcare data as well as the need for communication between providers and between providers and patients. EHR software, Personal Health Record software as well as practice management systems are all part of the technology solution that healthcare reform will rely upon for its successful adoption and implementation. Although EHR technology provides many benefits for today’s healthcare practice, its adoption imposes economic cost and requires providers to spend time becoming familiar with its use. However, we believe that the effective use of these technologies will be the difference between smaller practice groups that survive and flourish in the era of healthcare reform and those that do not.

Many physician practices outsource their time-consuming but vital RCM services to a local RCM service provider. RCM companies assist medical providers with the entire medical billing process, from the input of patient information to create a medical billing claim, to the reimbursement from the payer and payment to the healthcare provider. However, today’s smaller RCM companies have been largely unable to deliver a complete management solution that integrates with other modern technologies available to medical providers. The RCM service industry is highly fragmented, with many local and regional billing companies serving smaller medical practices. We estimate that there are more than 1,500 companies in the United States providing RCM services and that no one company has more than a 5% share of the market.

Local and regional RCM companies typically rely on a local workforce to perform the claim submission and follow-up tasks on behalf of their customers. In an effort to remain competitive in the industry, many of these billing companies supplement their workforce by leasing medical billing software from large distributors. These RCM companies then leverage their workforce and the technology of the large distributors to reduce administrative tasks of their healthcare provider customers. Although many regional RCM and medical practice management companies recognize the shortcomings of their approach, their limited size and resources make it difficult for them to offer an integrated SaaS solution combining RCM, practice management and EHR solutions at a competitive price. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that providers of sophisticated, integrated practice management, EHR and RCM solutions will be able to acquire regional RCM companies at reasonable prices and transition many of the customers of those companies to their solutions.

77


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The failure of RCM companies to deliver a complete solution becomes more pronounced in light of current incentives offered by the federal government to providers who systematically report clinical information and adopt EHR and electronic prescribing technologies. Without the ability to fully integrate their RCM systems with EHR technology, third party RCM companies are disadvantaged in the market and their healthcare provider customers must choose to either purchase standalone EHR software along with their existing billing platform or find a healthcare IT company that can offer both products.

We believe that the combination of these incentives and stressors will prompt providers to move towards outsourcing their practice management and administrative functions to organizations that provide sophisticated software and ancillary services to manage a modern medical practice. These tools enable smaller practices to streamline their workflow and reduce their costs, allowing them to grow their practice.

MTBC’s Solution

Our fully integrated suite of technology and business service solutions is designed to enable healthcare practices to thrive in the midst of a rapidly changing environment in which managing reimbursement, clinical workflows and day-to-day administrative tasks is becoming increasingly complex, costly and time-consuming. Our end-to-end solution, marketed as PracticePro, combines clinical and practice management software with critical business services and knowledge driven tools.

PracticePro empowers healthcare practices with the core software and business services, on one unified SaaS platform, to efficiently operate their businesses, manage clinical workflows and receive timely payment for their services. Our primary platform is web-based and is regularly updated to ensure that our customers stay on the leading edge of industry developments, payer reimbursement changes and developing regulations. PracticePro customers are able to leverage our RCM services, EHR solutions, practice management software and related services, including transcription, document indexing, coding, coding audit support, and consulting services.

We believe that our web-based platform provides a compelling and cost-effective solution to healthcare providers for the following reasons:

Comprehensive Solution.  PracticePro users are able to fully leverage our practice management, EHR and RCM solutions and services, patient engagement applications, business intelligence and clinical decision support tools, mobile health applications, insurance eligibility verification, customized website design and hosting service, meaningful use coaching service, automated patient reminder services, and more. By utilizing our solutions, our customers’ healthcare IT solutions and related RCM needs are provided by a single vendor, which reduces costs and complexities as compared to providers adopting a piecemeal approach to their practice management, EHR and RCM needs.

Fully Integrated Platform.  We believe that an integrated platform is not only critical to our ability to deliver superior results to our customers in the rapidly changing healthcare environment, but is becoming a threshold requirement for our customers’ survival in the emerging healthcare landscape. This integration ensures that data flow freely between applications, thereby reducing a practice’s administrative burden and the possibility of error, while enhancing the usefulness of that same data. We believe that our platform can be effectively leveraged by our customers to make better business and clinical decisions, while streamlining workflows and reducing administrative burdens, with the net effect of reducing operating costs and increasing revenues. As pressures from both commercial and governmental payers continue to mount, our business intelligence and clinical data management modules, patient engagement applications, clinical decision support tools, interoperable architecture, coding and similar services, will be of increasing importance.

Cost-Effective Pricing.  We believe that our proprietary web-based software and cost-effective workforce in Pakistan allow us to competitively price our products and services. Our comprehensive PracticePro solution is priced at 5% of collections plus a one-time setup fee. Our percentage-based fee structure ensures that our financial interests are aligned with those of our customers. This price-point is especially attractive to practices and specialties that are characterized by a relatively high volume of claims and low reimbursement per claim, such as most primary care practices. Our 5% fee for the services we provide is among the lowest in our industry. Moreover, unlike most traditional RCM companies, our offering includes an integrated EHR solution,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

practice management solution and dozens of other business services and applications. We regularly update our SaaS platform with the goal of staying on the leading edge of industry developments, payer reimbursements trends and new regulations.

Superior Customer Service.  Our customers benefit from our larger scale and greater personnel resources as compared to regional RCM companies, which allows us to more effectively service our customers and respond to their individual needs. We employ more than 800 individuals who provide support to our customers, including around-the-clock technical support and patient billing assistance services, insurance registration, claim processing and follow-up, patient telephone support, training, coding, transcription, document indexing, meaningful use coaching, account management, business analysis and more. In addition, with approximately 170 technical team members who are focused solely on research, development and maintenance of our integrated SaaS platform and its connections with third-party software applications, databases and health information exchanges, we provide our customers with state-of-the-art products and services.

Our Strategy

Our objective is to become a leading provider of integrated, end-to-end software and business service solutions to healthcare providers practicing in an ambulatory setting. To achieve this objective, we employ the following strategies:

Provide comprehensive practice management, electronic health record, revenue cycle management and mobile health solutions to small and medium size healthcare practices.  We believe that physician practices require an integrated, end-to-end solution to manage the different facets of their businesses, from clinical documentation to claim submission and reporting, and that there are a limited number of companies in our industry that offer this complete solution to physicians. We believe that our software and service offerings provide physician practices with a complete solution. In fact, our clients who make the greatest use of our product offering are more likely to renew their contracts with us. For example, during 2012 and 2013, our renewal rates were 90% for revenue cycle management clients who were also users of our EHR, and renewal rates were at least 95% for revenue cycle management customers who were meaningful users of our EHR (i.e., those who successfully attested for meaningful use and earned a bonus under the HITECH Act).

Provide exceptional customer service.  We realize that our success is tied directly to our customers’ success. Accordingly, a substantial portion of our highly trained and educated workforce is devoted to customer service activities. In addition, the price of our integrated software and services suite is structured to provide us with an incentive to deliver excellent performance that increases our customers’ revenues. We work closely with our customers to ensure that their practices fully benefit from our complete suite of end-to-end solutions and expect to continue to focus on delivering exceptional service to our customers.

Leverage significant cost advantages provided by our skilled offshore workforce.  Our unique business model includes our web-based software and a cost-effective offshore workforce primarily based in Pakistan. We believe that this operating model provides us with significant cost advantages compared to other RCM companies. In addition, it allows us to significantly reduce the operational costs of the companies we acquire. Our offshore offices in Pakistan offer a highly educated and skilled work force providing the bulk of our customer service and product development and maintenance activities at half the cost of comparable India-based operations. In addition, our comprehensive web-based software platform gives us the ability to automate many of the manual processes that RCM companies in our industry currently face, thus reducing many redundant tasks.

Pursue strategic acquisitions.  As of December 31, 2013, approximately 30% of our current practices were obtained through strategic transactions with regional RCM companies (before giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers). Since 2006, we have acquired eight RCM companies and entered into agreements with two additional RCM companies under which we service all of their customers. During 2012 alone, we acquired four RCM companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct RCM platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. Most recently, on June 30, 2013, we acquired approximately 180 providers from Metro Medical Management Services, Inc., representing 102 practices in various specialties, including dermatology and internal medicine. Upon the closing of our acquisition of the Target Sellers, we will acquire three additional RCM companies, which as of

79


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

December 31, 2013 served approximately 1,000 providers, representing approximately 500 practices, practicing in over 20 specialties and subspecialties, across 23 states. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions. Although we are not currently a party to formal or informal agreement or understanding regarding an acquisition other than with respect to the Target Sellers, we have participated in preliminary communications with 16 acquisition targets who have self-reported revenue of approximately $170 million. We intend to continue to pursue strategic acquisitions that we believe will deliver growth in our revenues and profitability and allow us to take advantage of greater economies of scale.

Increase sales and marketing efforts.  As a result of our acquisition of the Target Sellers and increased capital upon completion of this offering, we expect to increase the number of employees devoted to our sales and marketing efforts. We intend to hire sales and marketing executives to spearhead our customer acquisition initiative, who will recruit regional salespeople and enhance our team of marketing and communications professionals. We believe that these new team members will also be able to successfully leverage the Target Sellers’ network of relationships and our existing infrastructure. By devoting greater resources to sales and marketing, we expect that our organic growth will increase more rapidly, as our current organic growth is driven primarily by customer referrals and internet search engine optimization techniques.

Continuously develop new features and service offerings to meet the needs of our customers.  We introduce new features and services to our customers on a regular basis. Some of these services are incorporated into PracticePro and others can be purchased as a standalone service. We have recently introduced additional services such as practice management consulting, coding services and audits. We believe that continuously expanding our service offerings enables us to better adapt to the changing needs of the healthcare industry and meet any new challenges our customers may have while increasing and diversifying our revenue stream.

Leverage strategic partnerships.   A portion of our current customers were initially referred to MTBC by one of our existing or former channel partners. We recently entered into new channel partnership agreements with various industry-leading vendors, including another leading electronic health record vendor and a paper-based clinical solution vendor. In conjunction with these partnerships, we help ‘round-out’ our partners’ service offerings, while receiving referrals and sharing a portion of our revenues with our partners.

Our Products and Services

We offer a suite of fully-integrated, web-based proprietary SaaS applications and business services designed for healthcare providers. Our products and services offer healthcare providers a unified solution designed to meet the healthcare industry’s demand for the delivery of cost-efficient, quality care with measureable outcomes. The three primary components of our proprietary web-based suite of services are: (i) practice management applications, (ii) a certified EHR solution, and (iii) RCM solutions and services. Each component is accompanied by a variety of complementary tools and applications designed to enhance the software’s function and optimize the healthcare practice’s efficiency. Our flagship product, PracticePro, offers all three components in one seamlessly-integrated, end-to-end solution. Our web-based EHR solution is also available to customers as a standalone product. We regularly update our software platform with the goal of staying on the leading edge of industry developments, payer reimbursements trends and new regulations.

Web-based Practice Management Application

Our proprietary, web-based practice management application automates the labor-intensive workflow of a medical office in a unified and streamlined SaaS platform. The various functions of the platform collectively support the entire workflow of the day-to-day operations of a medical office in an intuitive and user-friendly format. A simple, individual and secure login to our web-based platform gives physicians, other healthcare providers and staff members access to a vast array of practice management data available at any time, which they can access at the office or from any other location where they can access the Internet. By adjusting the parameters of each user’s rights, a practice administrator can easily keep sensitive practice information confidential. Users can customize the “Practice Dashboard” to display only the most useful and relevant information needed to carry out their particular functions. We believe that this streamlined and centralized automated workflow allows providers to focus more of their time on delivering quality patient care rather than office administration.

Web-Based Practice Management Dashboard

Presented below is a screen shot of the Practice Management Dashboard that a typical healthcare provider or administrator would view after logging on to our Web-based platform, based on customized settings previously selected by the provider’s practice administrator.

[GRAPHIC MISSING]

The practice management system is focused around certain key functions that are central to a practice’s work-flow, including: the practice dashboard; practice scheduler; online patient insurance eligibility verification; practice and business analysis reporting; and secure support messaging. Those functions are enhanced by a number of additional functions such as appointment reminder calls, patient check in, daily work confirmation, the pending transaction list and the cash register.

Practice Management Dashboard.  Providers have access to a wealth of customizable information from the Practice Management dashboard screen, which includes dozens of applications or “widgets,” which can generate a host of financial and practice analysis reports.
Practice Scheduler.  The scheduler is vital to a medical practice’s daily functioning, as it sets and controls the daily workflow and the tasks and functions that must be completed. This component allows providers to set office hours, holidays, and appointment guidelines and view information

TABLE OF CONTENTS

about patient appointments and medical information, including check-out notes. The scheduler also lets providers view detailed patient balance information, such as whether a patient’s account is in collections; document patient payments; and prints customized bills, receipts, and more.
Online Patient Insurance Eligibility.  Our real-time eligibility verification system allows providers to receive instant notification of a patient’s insurance eligibility after entering only basic demographic information into the system. This service integrates with our web-based RCM platform and EHR solution through the online scheduling function, which refreshes on a continuous basis ensuring that the eligibility information is accurate and up-to-date. Providers can view real-time detailed deductible, co-payment, and co-insurance information across key government and commercial insurance payers. This feature eliminates the need for repeated calls to insurers to determine insurance eligibility, and reduces lost revenue, delays and errors in eligibility verification.
Practice and Business Intelligence Reporting.  Through our robust reporting functions, providers can gain actionable insights into the performance of their practice. This allows providers to make more informed business and operational decisions, achieve higher quality healthcare, more efficient workflows, reduce redundancies and improve their bottom line.
Secure Support Messaging.  This tool lets providers safely communicate questions, concerns or comments containing protected health information to MTBC representatives in a secure forum.
Appointment Reminders.  Our platform generates automated phone calls and text messages to patients reminding them about upcoming appointments. Calls can reduce a practice’s no-shows, resulting in a savings of costs and time to practices that utilize this service.
Daily Work Confirmation.  Practices can keep track of pending items and required follow-up tasks on a continuous basis.
Pending Transaction List.  Medical claims with incomplete or inaccurate information are placed on a pending transaction list and not submitted to the payer until the error is corrected and the claim is ready for clean submission. Providers can view, print and reply electronically to claims placed on the pending transaction list to facilitate efficient submission and avoid payment delays.
Cash Register.  This report is generated in real-time for the purpose of keeping providers abreast of their daily collections. It tallies the total cash, check, and credit card amounts entered in the office.
Patient Engagement Applications.  Our suite of integrated patient engagement solutions provides patients with self-service options. Practices whose patients use these services can reduce administrative costs and overhead, while empowering patients to become more engaged consumers. This suite of solutions includes:
º Personal Health Record Applications.  Our Personal Health Record (or PHR) feature gives patients around-the-clock access to their own healthcare information. Patients can schedule appointments, view and pay balances, securely communicate with their healthcare providers, request prescription refills, and view their clinical data and medical charts. Patients can access our PHR application on the Internet or by downloading and using our Apple iOS or Android applications.
º Automated Alerts.  Our patient communication service facilitates an algorithm-driven strategic scheduling of preventative care encounters, such as flu shots, well visits.
º Educational Materials.  Providers can offer their patients educational material through MedlinePlus® which is incorporated into our Web-based applications.

ONC-ACB 2014 Edition Certified Web-based Electronic Health Records

Over the last several years, the government has enacted initiatives to drive the adoption of certified EHR solutions. Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and HITECH Act, subject to sequestration adjustments and certain deadlines, an eligible provider that qualifies for incentives by demonstrating “meaningful use” of a certified EHR can receive up to an aggregate of $44,000 from Medicare or $63,750 from Medicaid, and eligible providers that do not demonstrate meaningful use will face a penalty in the form

of a reduction in reimbursement beginning in 2015. The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) oversees the functionality that an EHR solution must meet to be eligible for incentives under the HITECH Act, and recognizes a variety of Authorized Certification Bodies (ACBs) eligible to test for and designate EHRs as certified for “meaningful use” reporting. Our web-based EHR solution has achieved 2014 Edition Complete EHR Ambulatory ONC-ACB Health IT Certification, which designates that the software is capable of supporting healthcare providers with Stage 1 and Stage 2 meaningful use measures required to qualify for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Furthermore, our web-based EHR solution was recently ranked fifth among all EHRs servicing healthcare providers practicing in the 1-10 provider practice space by KLAS, a leading independent industry assessor of healthcare information technology products.

Prior to January 1, 2014, a healthcare provider could use a 2011/2012 Edition certified EHR (also known as Stage 1 certified EHR) to demonstrate “meaningful use;” however beginning January 1, 2014, a provider may only use a 2014 Edition certified EHR (also known as Stage 2 certified EHR) to demonstrate “meaningful use” and thereby earn incentives and avoid penalties. According to the ONC’s website, 780 unique EHR’s were certified as Complete Ambulatory EHRs under Stage 1. As of March 1, 2014, less than 90 unique EHRs were certified as Complete Ambulatory EHRs under Stage 2. MTBC’s EHR is among the less than 15% of the Complete Ambulatory EHRs that have, as of March 1, 2014, transitioned from a Stage 1 certified product to a Stage 2 certified product; however, other EHRs continue to have the ability to become certified EHRs, therefore the number of Stage 2 certified EHRs is likely to grow. Moreover, KLAS, a leading independent industry assessor of healthcare information technology products, recently issued its annual EHR ranking and MTBC placed number five in our target market of one to ten providers, outperforming most leading EHR solutions.

Our web-based EHR solution allows a provider to view all patient information in one online location, thus avoiding the need for numerous charts and records for each patient. Utilizing our web-based EHR solution, providers can track patients from their initial appointments; chart clinical data, history, and other personal information; enter and submit claims for medical services; and review and respond to queries for additional information regarding the billing process. Additionally, the EHR software delivers a robust document management system to enable providers to transition to paperless environments. The document management function makes available an electronic connectivity between practitioners and patients, thereby streamlining patient care coordination and communications. Our web-based EHR solution is fully compatible with our practice management and RCM components, which together create a fully integrated, end-to-end technological solution for healthcare providers.

Our web-based EHR solution also enables providers to determine how potential drugs that may be prescribed for a particular patient will interact with that patient’s allergies, other medication and pre-existing medical conditions. Our web-based EHR solution is further enhanced by additional applications that provide for e-prescribing, lab connectivity, insurance eligibility verification and patient education and engagement applications such as PHR.

In addition, we offer meaningful use coaches as a value added service to our customers to help them qualify for the meaningful use incentives provided under the HITECH Act.

We also have a legacy version of our EHR solution that is not currently being sold but is still being utilized by a small number of our providers. Our legacy EHR has been certified as a 2011/2012 compliant EHR by Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT), an ONC-ACB. Our legacy EHR solution provides a subset of the features and functionality of our web-based EHR solution. We no longer market our legacy EHR solution and encourage customers using our legacy EHR solution as well as our new customers to utilize our web-based EHR solution incorporated in PracticePro or our stand-alone web-based EHR solution. In view of the transition of our clients to our web-based EHR, we do not plan to obtain 2014 Edition ONC-ACB certification of our legacy EHR.

Revenue Cycle Management and other Technology-driven Business Services

Our proprietary RCM offering is designed to improve the medical billing reimbursement process, allowing healthcare providers to accelerate and increase collections, reduce errors in submission and streamline workflow to free up practitioners to focus on patient care. Customers using PracticePro will generally see an improvement in their collections, as illustrated by the following:

Our first pass acceptance rate is 98%.
Our first pass resolution rate is 96%.
Our clients’ median days in accounts receivable is 30 days for primary care and 35 days for combined specialties.

We believe that these rates are among the best in the industry and compare favorably with the performance of our largest competitor, among others.

Our RCM service employs a proprietary rules-based system designed and constantly updated by our knowledgeable workforce, which screens and scrubs claims prior to submission for payment. Claims with incomplete or inaccurate information are placed on the pending transaction list, which flags claims that need additional information. Upon submission, the government or commercial payer forwards a claim acknowledgment notice and then processes the claim according to their payment cycle period. Payments are generally sent to providers by electronic fund transfer, and an electronic remittance is provided to us, which explains the benefits paid or denied to the provider. The primary features of our RCM offering include:

Rules Based System.  Our rules based system is a state of the art claims scrubbing engine which automatically edits and applies billing rules that are created, maintained, and updated by our billing analysts. Our rules based system checks claims against payer, coding, and other fields, and contains hundreds of thousands of rules which are used to analyze claims prior to submission.
Claims Submission.  Claims are submitted electronically by us on a daily basis to primary, secondary and tertiary payers.

84


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Claim Follow-Up.  While approximately 96% of the claims submitted through our platform are favorably adjudicated on the first submission, where claims are denied or payment is not timely made by the payer, our dedicated employees follow-up with payers employing a variety of methods, including electronic queries and live and interactive voice recording calls to insurance companies.
Patient Billing Support.  Our customers can provide their patients with a toll free number for billing inquires. We can also generate automated balance reminder calls to our providers’ patients and transmit electronic or paper statements to patients.
Third-Party EHR integration.  While we recommend that our RCM clients leverage our fully integrated EHR, we are also committed to developing, supporting and promoting interfaces with third-party EHRs. In fact, approximately 10% of our PracticePro customers use third-party EHR with which we have developed an interface. These interfaces allow our customers (typically new customers or those practicing in specialties with unique workflows) to leverage many of the benefits of our RCM and PM, without being required to switch to our EHR.

Automated Prescription Services and Lab Connectivity

Providers utilizing PracticePro or our stand-alone web-based EHR solution are able to electronically interact and communicate with both pharmacies and medical laboratories:

E-prescribing.  Our e-prescribing solution, which received Surescripts’ 2012 White Coat of Quality certification, replaces antiquated prescription pads with an electronic function that sends prescriptions directly to any of more than 54,000 retail pharmacies and six of the largest mail order pharmacies. Our customers can access our electronic prescribing solution through our EHR or by leveraging our Apple iOS or Android smart phone applications. This application provides physicians with access to patient prescription history and is also capable of receiving information from eligible pharmacies. All medications submitted through this application provide real-time warnings and alert systems that notify the provider of any adverse reactions or interactions with the patient’s other medication, allergies or illnesses. Collectively, these functions offer physicians a time and cost-saving solution in a critical area of patient care.
Lab Connectivity.  Our lab connectivity service links providers with Lab Corp., Quest and other national and regional laboratories. Features of our lab connectivity service include:
º Hospital and laboratory reports organized electronically in a single location, replacing multiple printing devices and fax machines.
º Notifications of unviewed results, including alerts for abnormal results.
º Easy and secure forwarding of patient lab results to multiple physicians.
º Cumulative and streamlined reports accessible from any Internet connection.

Ancillary Services

Providers who use our practice management and RCM solutions may also avail themselves of a variety of other technology-driven business services we provide, including:

Web Development and Hosting Services.  We design and host customized websites for our customers at no additional cost. Our search engine friendly designs improve the provider’s online presence and help patients find them easily. The website is integrated with our secure patient health record portal.
Transcription services.  Through a combination of our technology and workforce, providers have access to 4 cents per line transcription services. To utilize this service, providers simply upload audio dictation files to us through a secure website.
Coding and consulting.  For an additional cost, our certified coders assist our customers in selecting appropriate procedure and diagnosis codes to support the RCM process. Our team also performs coding reviews and consultations that assist our customers by identifying and remedying coding mistakes that would, if left unchecked, pose compliance and payment risks.

Mobile Health Solutions

The functionality of our cloud-based platform is extended to mobile devices through our integrated suite of mobile health applications. These mobile health applications include physician end-user tools that support, among other things, electronic prescribing, the capture of billing charges in ICD-9 and ICD-10 formats, and the creation and secure transfer of clinical audio notes that are converted into text and billing charges. Our patient applications allow patients to access their medical information, securely communicate with their doctors’ office, schedule appointments, request prescription refills, pay balances and check-in for office appointments.

manager who is responsible for maintaining our relationship with that provider and its staff. Through our web-based platform, email, phone, video and in-person meetings, we are in regular contact with our customers with the goal of proactively managing their practice management needs.

We offer providers, at no additional cost, a technical support hotline which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Members of our team are trained to resolve issues with our programs across all platforms that support our software and applications (PC/MAC, tablets, Android and Apple mobile devices). Providers and their staff can also communicate securely and directly with our support center through our web-based platform. Our customers have the ability to categorize each message and log them as a compliment, routine or complaint. During regular business hours, a rapid response unit of our support team calls any practice that submits a complaint within 10 minutes of our receipt of the complaint.

In addition, our providers save time and money by directing patient calls regarding billing to our patient help desk. Our support team assists patients with their billing questions in both English and Spanish.

Technology, Development and Infrastructure

We employ approximately 170 employees in our technology department dedicated to developing, maintaining and upgrading our software products. We continuously update our software and the rules in our rules based system. Our innovative platform utilizes the latest web, mobile, and cloud computing technologies which include Microsoft .NET, Linux, Android and Apple iOS. Our web-based platform ensures that data flows in a seamless manner across web, mobile and remote environments to our integrated web-based EHR and PracticePro applications. Our innovative platform further facilitates integration of all clinical, financial and administrative data to promote real-time information sharing and quick user adoption through user-friendly and intuitive tools that optimize daily processes.

Since our founding, we have remained committed to staying at the forefront of technological trends and changes. We believe that our web-based platforms provide the access, security and scalability that our healthcare industry customers desire. By utilizing our cutting-edge, technology-based solutions, we believe that our customers are positioned well for the healthcare industry future.

Our corporate offices located in Somerset, New Jersey house the servers that host our website, www.mtbc.com as well as our customers’ data. We also have a redundant backup of all critical customer services at a secure third-party co-location site in the U.S. Additionally, our customers’ encrypted data reside on secure servers located at both our primary offshore offices in the Islamabad metropolitan area of Pakistan, and at our fully functional disaster recovery site located four hours away in Bagh, Pakistan. Both of our sites in Pakistan as well as in the United States utilize fail-over server redundancy, continuous data backups, uninterruptible power supplies and other security measures intended to prevent interruptions in the delivery of our products and services. Customer data is replicated at our New Jersey office, a third-party co-location facility and two locations in Pakistan in an automated loopback system, providing data redundancy and ensuring successful data recovery in the event of a catastrophic loss.

Sales and Marketing

We employ a sales and marketing team operating out of our offshore and U.S. domestic offices. Our sales and marketing techniques include:

Customer Referrals
Search Engine Optimization
Channel Partnerships
Telemarketing

Customer Referrals.  Customers who have experienced the benefits of utilizing our platform frequently refer our solutions to their colleagues. We offer our customers incentives for successful referrals and also run promotional campaigns under which customer referrers are eligible to win prizes such as iPads and trips. Our customers can provide us with referrals through multiple channels, including our web-based practice management site, and by calling our customer support line.

87


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Search Engine Optimization.  Our marketing team utilizes search engine optimization methods to increase our Web presence and achieve higher visibility for our solutions in response to Internet search engine queries relating to our industry. Our marketing team also manages our social media presence, including on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Channel Partnerships.  We have relationships with healthcare services vendors whom we refer to as channel partners. In most cases, these relationships are agreements that compensate channel partners for providing us with sales lead information that results in sales. These channel partners generally do not make sales but instead provide us with leads that we use to develop new business through our direct sales force. In some instances, the channel relationship involves endorsement or promotion of our services by these third parties.

Telemarketing.  Our offshore team includes trained sales people who perform targeted phone calls to healthcare providers. This sales team also fields inbound calls, responding promptly to providers who have requested contact via our website or through our sales line. Our offshore team is supported by our sales and marketing employees in the U.S. who may meet with potential customers and arrange in-person or remote demonstrations of our products and services.

Competition

The market for our products and services is competitive and characterized by rapidly evolving technology and product standards, user needs and the frequent introduction of new products and services. Some of our competitors are more established than us, benefit from greater name recognition and have substantially greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than us.

We compete with other providers of both integrated and stand-alone practice management, EHR and RCM solutions, including providers who utilize a Web-based platform and providers of locally installed software systems. Our competitors include larger healthcare IT companies such as athenahealth, Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, eClinical Works, Practice Fusion, Kareo, Amazing Charts, and Greenway Medical Technologies. We also compete with regional RCM companies.

The principal competitive factors in our industry include:

Product functionality and scope of services;
Cost-effectiveness of services;
Software intuitiveness and ease of use;
The ability to adapt quickly to changing rules and regulations applicable to the healthcare industry and for government reimbursement of medical costs;
The ability to adapt to changes in insurance companies’ reimbursement policies and rules; and
Customer relationship and satisfaction.

Despite the strong competition we face, we believe that our suite of services allows us to effectively compete with other companies in our industry, particularly in our targeted healthcare practice of one to ten medical providers that are served primarily by regional RCM companies. In most cases, regional RCM companies do not offer a comprehensive platform with integrated services that combines RCM services with practice management software and an EHR solution. In addition, we believe that the functionality of PracticePro and the scope of services we offer are comparable to those offered by our larger competitors. Moreover, we believe that our cost-effective offshore support system differentiates us from many of our larger competitors and allows us to deliver our services at lower prices to our customers.

Acquisitions

The RCM service industry is highly fragmented, with many local and regional RCM companies serving small medical practices. We believe that the industry is ripe for consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through acquisitions. We estimate that there are more than 1,500 companies in the United States providing RCM services and that no one company has more than 5% of the market share. We further believe that it is becoming increasingly difficult for traditional RCM companies to meet the growing technology and business service needs of healthcare providers while remaining profitable without a significant investment in information technology infrastructure.

Prior Acquisitions

Since 2006, we have acquired eight RCM companies and entered into outsourcing agreements with two additional RCM companies under which we service all of their customers. During 2012 alone, we acquired four RCM companies, and successfully migrated a majority of the customers of those companies from eight distinct RCM platforms to PracticePro within 120 days of closing. For 2013, 36% of our revenues were generated from providers who were obtained through strategic transactions with regional RCM companies.

Most recently, we acquired customers comprising approximately 85% of the revenue of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. on June 30, 2013 for a purchase price of $1.5 million, of which $275,000 was paid in cash at closing with the balance to be paid in 24 monthly installments with the final installment to be paid on August 1, 2015. Based in New York City, Metro Medical provides RCM services to physicians in New York and New Jersey and generated revenues of approximately $3.3 million in 2012, of which approximately $2.7 million represented revenues from the customers we acquired. As of December 31, 2013, we served approximately 177 providers we acquired from Metro Medical, representing 90 practices in various specialties, including dermatology and internal medicine.

Acquisition of Target Sellers’ Businesses

Concurrently with the consummation of the offering made by this prospectus, through a series of asset purchase agreements, we will acquire the businesses of the Target Sellers. Unless we close the acquisition of all of the Target Sellers, we will not close any of those acquisitions and will not close this offering. The Target Sellers, without giving effect to our own client base, serve an aggregate of approximately 1,000 providers as of December 31, 2013, representing approximately 500 practices, practicing in over 20 specialties across 23 states. Our primary goal in acquiring the Target Sellers’ businesses is to migrate the customers of the Target Sellers to our web-based practice management, EHR and RCM solutions marketed under the name PracticePro. The Target Sellers consist of the following:

Omni Medical Billing Services, LLC, based in Los Angeles, California, was formed in 2006 and subsequently acquired four U.S. RCM companies. Omni Medical provides traditional coding, collection and RCM services. Omni Medical has approximately 150 employees in the U.S. and over 200 individuals working for a subcontractor in India, and generated revenues of approximately $11.3 million in 2013. As of December 31, 2013, Omni Medical serves approximately 670 providers, representing 315 practices, practicing in approximately 15 specialties, across 22 states.
Practicare Medical Management, Inc., based in Syracuse, New York, was formed in 1988 and provides RCM services to physicians in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Practicare has approximately 80 employees as well as approximately 17 contractors located in Poland and generated revenues of approximately $4.9 million in 2013. As of December 31, 2013, Practicare serves approximately 160 providers, representing 85 practices, practicing primarily in radiology.
CastleRock Solutions, based in Silicon Valley, California, provides RCM and IT consulting services to its customers. CastleRock employs approximately 60 employees in the U.S. and approximately 150 individuals working for a subcontractor in India and generated revenues of approximately $4.9 million in 2013. As of December 31, 2013, CastleRock serves approximately 170 providers, representing 95 practices, practicing in approximately 10 specialties, mainly in California.

Consideration to be Paid to Target Sellers

We have entered into definitive agreements to acquire each of the Target Sellers, which were amended in March 2014. The aggregate purchase price will amount to approximately $34.7 million (assuming an initial public offering price of $10.00 per share, the midpoint of the estimated offering price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), consisting of cash in the amount of approximately $18.2 million, and 1,750,249 shares of our common stock with a market value of approximately $17.5 million based on the initial public offering price of such shares, less a fair value adjustment of $1.0 million. Pursuant to the terms of the respective purchase agreements, the aggregate purchase price we will pay for the assets of each of the Target Sellers will be calculated as a multiple of either 1.5 or 2.0 of the revenue generated by such Target Seller in the most recent four quarters included in this prospectus from its customers that are in good standing as of the closing date.

The following table sets forth certain summary information of the consideration payable in connection with the acquisition of the Target Sellers:

         
Target Seller   Common Stock   Cash   Fair Value Adjustment   Total Consideration
  Shares   Value
     (in thousands)
Omni     1,113     $ 11,125     $ 11,125     $ (223 )    $ 22,028  
Practicare     281       2,805       3,429       (748 )      5,486  
CastleRock     357       3,572       3,672       (36 )      7,209  
Total     1,751     $ 17,502     $ 18,226     $ (1,007 )    $ 34,723  

Under each purchase agreement, we will be entitled to cancel all or portion of the shares issued to the Target Sellers in the event post-closing revenues from customers acquired from the applicable Target Seller are below a specified threshold, and conversely, we will be required to issue additional shares to each Target Seller in the event post-closing revenues from customers acquired from the applicable Target Seller exceed a specified threshold. These adjustments to the share consideration for each Target Seller will be based on the revenues generated from the acquired customers in the 12-months following the closing, as compared to the revenues generated by the Target Seller in the 12-months prior to the closing, except that in Omni’s case, the comparison will be to the 12-months prior to the execution of the purchase agreement. For each of Omni, Practicare, and CastleRock, no adjustment will be made unless the variance in post-closing revenues is greater than 10%, 5% and 20%, respectively, as compared to pre-closing revenue. In each case, the adjustment will either result in additional shares being issued by us to the Target Seller, or the cancellation of shares then held in escrow. The number of shares to be cancelled or issued, as applicable, will be calculated by multiplying the dollar amount of the variance in the post-closing period from the specified threshold by the revenue multiple used to determine the initial purchase price (2.0 for Omni and 1.5 for the other Target Sellers), and dividing that number by the actual offering price of our common stock in this offering.

Structure of Acquisitions

Although each acquisition agreement contains slightly different terms, we will generally acquire the customer contracts, goodwill and fixed assets of each of the Target Sellers, but not their working capital or debt.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Summary of the Terms of the Acquisition Agreements

Although the following summarizes the material terms of the acquisition agreements, it does not purport to be complete in all respects and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the acquisition agreements, a copy of each of which is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Additionally, the following summary discusses the acquisition agreements in general terms and does not identify the instances where one acquisition agreement may differ from another. Other than the amount of consideration to be received, all of the acquisition agreements are substantially similar.

Timing of Closing

We expect that the acquisitions will close concurrently with the consummation of this offering. Unless we close all of the acquisitions, we will not close any of the acquisitions and we will not close this offering.

Representations and Warranties

Each acquisition agreement contains a number of representations and warranties made by us on the one hand and the respective Target Seller and its principal stockholder(s) on the other hand. These representations and warranties were made as of the date of the acquisition agreement or, in some cases, as of a date specified in the representation, and may be qualified by reference to knowledge, materiality or schedules to the acquisition agreement disclosing exceptions to the representations and warranties. The contents of the representations and warranties reflect the results of arms’ length negotiations between the parties regarding their contractual rights. Based upon the Company’s due diligence investigation of the Target Sellers and its review of the schedules to the acquisition agreements, there are no material exceptions to the Target Seller’s representation and warranties.

Each party made representations to the other including, among others, representations concerning authority and approval; non-contravention; and financial statements.

Among other items, the Target Sellers and their stockholders made additional representations to MTBC, including, among others, representations concerning due organization; capital stock; subsidiaries; liabilities; compliance with law; litigation; no violations of organizational documents; title to assets; real property; contracts; taxes; permits; environmental matters; personal property; customers; intellectual property; certain business practices and regulations; insurance; compensation; organized labor matters; employee plans; compliance with ERISA; computer hardware and software; absence of changes; and no undisclosed liabilities.

The Target Sellers and their stockholders party to the acquisition agreements have been offered the opportunity to review a draft of this prospectus and the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and have made representations to us regarding their investment intent, investor sophistication and ability to bear the economic risk of an investment in our common stock.

Indemnification and Escrow

Each Target Seller and certain of their stockholders and members have agreed to indemnify and hold us harmless from a breach by them of their representations and warranties or covenants contained in the acquisition agreement to which they are a party. Losses for a breach of a representation and warranty generally may be indemnified if asserted prior to two years from the closing date, except that breaches of certain fundamental representations, such as the Target Sellers’ title to their assets may be asserted at any time, and breaches of tax, ERISA and environmental representations, may be asserted at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

All of the shares to be issued to the Target Sellers will be deposited into escrow to secure our rights (i) to be indemnified under the purchase agreement, and (ii) to cancel a portion of the shares in the event our revenues from the Target Sellers’ customers in the 12 months following the closing are below specified thresholds. With respect to each Target Seller, 15% of the escrowed shares will be eligible for release six months following the closing. With respect to Omni, an additional 15% of the escrowed shares will be eligible for release nine months following the closing and for all the Target Seller’s, the remaining shares will be eligible for release following the determination of such Target Seller’s revenue in the 12 months following the closing. In addition, 10% of the cash consideration payable for the acquisition of Practicare and 15% of the cash consideration payable for the acquisition of CastleRock will be held in escrow for 120 days following

the closing of to satisfy indemnification claims we may have during that period. The Target Sellers will retain voting power over the escrowed shares while the shares are in escrow, but they will not have the ability to dispose or exercise investment power over the shares until they are released from escrow.

Noncompetition Agreement

Each of the acquisition agreements contains restrictions prohibiting each Target Seller and their principal stockholders party to the acquisition agreement from soliciting our employees, existing customers and the customers we are acquiring for a period of five years after the closing. Additionally, certain stockholders and employees of the Target Sellers will enter into employment agreements with us that contain non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.

Closing Conditions

The obligations of MTBC and the Target Seller and each of its stockholders to complete a particular acquisition are subject to the satisfaction of conditions including, among others:

the material accuracy as of closing of the representations and warranties made by MTBC and the Target Seller and each of its stockholders, respectively, in the acquisition agreement;
material compliance with or performance of the covenants and agreements of each of MTBC and the Target Seller and each of its stockholders, respectively, to be complied with or performed on or prior to closing; and
the offering contemplated by this prospectus shall have closed.

In addition our obligations to complete a particular acquisition are subject to the satisfaction of other conditions including:

receipt by the Target Seller of third-party consents;
the Target Seller shall not have sustained a material adverse change;
each other acquisition shall have occurred or will occur contemporaneously with the closing of that acquisition; and
no action or proceeding by or before any government authority shall have been instituted or threatened to restrain or prohibit the consummation of the acquisition.

Termination of the Acquisition Agreements

Each agreement relating to an acquisition may be terminated, under certain circumstances, prior to the closing of this offering, including:

by the mutual consent of MTBC and the Target Seller;
by either MTBC or the Target Seller if this offering and the acquisition of the Target Seller is not closed by May 31, 2014; or
by either MTBC or the Target Seller if a material breach or default under the acquisition agreement by the other party occurs and is not cured within the applicable cure period.

No acquisition agreement provides for a termination fee for the benefit of any party thereto if such acquisition agreement is terminated by any party thereto.

No assurance can be given that the conditions to the closing of all of the acquisitions will be satisfied or waived. Unless we close all of the acquisitions, we will not close any of the acquisitions and will not close this offering.

Government Regulation

Although we generally do not contract with U.S. state or local government entities, the services that we provide are subject to a complex array of federal and state laws and regulations, including regulation by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Government Regulation of Health Information

HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules.  The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations that have been issued under it (collectively known as HIPAA) contain substantial restrictions and requirements with respect to the use and disclosure of individuals’ protected health information. These are embodied in the Privacy Rule and Security Rule portions of HIPAA. The HIPAA Privacy Rule prohibits a covered entity from using or disclosing an individual’s protected health information unless the use or disclosure is authorized by the individual or is specifically required or permitted under the Privacy Rule. The Privacy Rule imposes a complex system of requirements on covered entities for complying with this basic standard. Under the HIPAA Security Rule, covered entities must establish administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information maintained or transmitted by them or by others on their behalf.

The HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules apply directly to covered entities, such as healthcare providers who engage in HIPAA-defined standard electronic transactions, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses. Because we translate electronic transactions to and from the HIPAA-prescribed electronic forms and other forms, we are considered a clearinghouse, and as such are a covered entity. In addition, our customers are also covered entities. In order to provide customers with services that involve the use or disclosure of protected health information, the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules require us to enter into business associate agreements with our customers when we are acting as a business associate. Such agreements must, among other things, provide adequate written assurances:

as to how we will use and disclose the protected health information;
that we will implement reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect such information from misuse;
that we will enter into similar agreements with our subcontractors that have access to the information;
that we will report security incidents and other inappropriate uses or disclosures of the information; and
that we will assist the customer in question with certain of its duties under the Privacy Rule.

HIPAA Transaction Requirements.  In addition to the Privacy and Security Rules, HIPAA also requires that certain electronic transactions related to healthcare billing be conducted using prescribed electronic formats. For example, claims for reimbursement that are transmitted electronically to payers must comply with specific formatting standards, and these standards apply whether the payer is a government or a commercial entity. As a covered entity subject to HIPAA, we must meet these requirements, and moreover, we must structure and provide our services in a way that supports our customers’ HIPAA compliance obligations.

HITECH Act.  The HITECH Act, which became law in February 2009, and the regulations issued under it, have provided, among other things, clarification of certain aspects of both the Privacy and Security Rules, expansion of the disclosure requirements for a breach of the Security Rule, and strengthening of the civil and criminal penalties for failure to comply with HIPAA. On January 25, 2013, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published the final omnibus rule implementing the HITECH Act. Since we are business associates for some of the functions we perform, we are now directly liable for civil monetary penalties for violation of the HIPAA rules in our role as business associates. As business associates, we are also obligated under the HIPAA rules to enter into written agreements with our subcontractors to obtain satisfactory assurances that the subcontractor will appropriately safeguard protected health information. We were required to be compliant with most of the provisions of this new rule by September 23, 2013.

State Laws.  In addition to the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules and the requirements imposed by the HITECH Act, most states have enacted patient confidentiality laws that protect against the disclosure of confidential medical information, and many states have adopted or are considering further legislation in this area, including privacy safeguards, security standards, and data security breach notification requirements. Such state laws, if more stringent than HIPAA and HITECH Act requirements, are not preempted by the federal requirements, and we must comply with them.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Government Regulation of Reimbursement

Our customers are subject to regulation by a number of governmental agencies, including those that administer the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Accordingly, our customers are sensitive to legislative and regulatory changes in, and limitations on, the government healthcare programs and changes in reimbursement policies, processes, and payment rates. During recent years, there have been numerous federal legislative and administrative actions that have affected government programs, including adjustments that have reduced or increased payments to physicians and other healthcare providers and adjustments that have affected the complexity of our work. It is possible that the federal or state governments will implement future reductions, increases, or changes in reimbursement under government programs that adversely affect our customer base or our cost of providing our services.

Fraud and Abuse

A number of federal and state laws, loosely referred to as “fraud and abuse laws,” are used to prosecute and impose civil penalties, among other things, upon healthcare providers, physicians, and others that make, offer, seek, or receive referrals or payments for products or services that may be paid for through any federal or state healthcare program and, in some instances, any private program. Given the breadth of these laws and regulations, they are potentially applicable to our business; the transactions that we undertake on behalf of our customers; and the financial arrangements through which we market, sell, and distribute our services. These laws and regulations include:

Anti-Kickback Laws.  There are numerous federal and state laws that govern patient referrals, physician financial relationships, and inducements to healthcare providers and patients. The federal healthcare programs’ anti-kickback law prohibits any person or entity from offering, paying, soliciting, or receiving anything of value, directly or indirectly, for the referral of patients covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and other federal healthcare programs or the leasing, purchasing, ordering, or arranging for or recommending the lease, purchase, or order of any item, good, facility, or service covered by these programs. Courts have construed this anti-kickback law to mean that a financial arrangement may violate this law if any one of the purposes of one of the arrangements is to encourage patient referrals or other federal healthcare program business, regardless of whether there are other legitimate purposes for the arrangement. There are several limited exclusions known as safe harbors that may protect some arrangements from enforcement penalties. These safe harbors are very limited and may not be applicable to all compliant business arrangements. Penalties for federal anti-kickback violations are severe, and include imprisonment, criminal fines, civil money penalties with triple damages, and exclusion from participation in federal healthcare programs. Many states have similar anti-kickback laws, some of which are not limited to items or services for which payment is made by a government healthcare program.

False or Fraudulent Claim Laws.  There are numerous federal and state laws that forbid submission of false information, or the failure to disclose information, in connection with the submission and payment of physician claims for reimbursement. In some cases, these laws also forbid abuse in connection with such submission and payment, for example, by systematic over treatment or duplicate billing for the same services to collect increased or duplicate payments. These laws and regulations may change rapidly, and it is frequently unclear how they apply to our business. For example, one federal false claim law forbids knowing submission to government programs of false claims for reimbursement for medical items or services. Under this law, knowledge may consist of willful ignorance or reckless disregard of falsity. How these concepts apply to services such as ours that rely substantially on automated processes has not been well defined in the regulations or relevant case law. As a result, our errors with respect to the formatting, preparation, or transmission of such claims and any mishandling by us of claims information that is supplied by our customers or other third parties may be determined to, or may be alleged to, involve willful ignorance or reckless disregard of any falsity that is later determined to exist.

We typically charge our PracticePro customers a percentage of the collections that they receive as a result of our services. To the extent that liability under fraud and abuse laws and regulations requires intent, it may be alleged that this percentage calculation provides us or our employees with incentive to commit or overlook

94


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

fraud or abuse in connection with submission and payment of reimbursement claims. CMS has stated that it is concerned that percentage-based billing services may encourage RCM companies to commit or to overlook fraudulent or abusive practices.

PPACA.  In addition to the provisions relating to healthcare access and delivery, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act made changes to healthcare fraud and abuse laws. PPACA expands false claim laws, amends key provisions of other anti-fraud and abuse statutes, provides the government with new enforcement tools and funding for enforcement, and enhances both criminal and administrative penalties for noncompliance. PPACA may result in increased anti-fraud enforcement activities.

Stark Law and Similar State Laws.  The Ethics in Patient Referrals Act, known as the Stark Law, prohibits certain types of referral arrangements between physicians and healthcare entities. Physicians are prohibited from referring patients for certain designated health services reimbursed under federally funded programs to entities with which they or their immediate family members have a financial relationship or an ownership interest, unless such referrals fall within a specific exception. Violations of the statute can result in civil monetary penalties and/or exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Furthermore, reimbursement claims for care rendered under forbidden referrals may be deemed false or fraudulent, resulting in liability under other fraud and abuse laws.

Laws in many states similarly forbid billing based on referrals between individuals and/or entities that have various financial, ownership, or other business relationships. These laws vary widely from state to state.

Corporate Practice of Medicine Laws, Fee-Splitting Laws, and Anti-Assignment Laws

In many states, there are laws that prohibit non-licensed individuals from practicing medicine, prevent corporations from being licensed as practitioners, and prohibit licensed medical practitioners from practicing medicine in partnership with non-physicians, such as business corporations. In some states, these prohibitions take the form of laws or regulations forbidding the splitting of physician fees with non-physicians or others. In some cases, these laws have been interpreted to prevent business service providers from charging their physician customers on the basis of a percentage of collections or charges.

There are also federal and state laws that forbid or limit assignment of claims for reimbursement from government-funded programs. Some of these laws limit the manner in which business service companies may handle payments for such claims and prevent such companies from charging their physician customers on the basis of a percentage of collections or charges. In particular, the Medicare program specifically requires that billing agents who receive Medicare payments on behalf of medical care providers must meet the following requirements:

the agent must receive the payment under an agreement between the provider and the agent;
the agent’s compensation may not be related in any way to the dollar amount billed or collected;
the agent’s compensation may not depend upon the actual collection of payment;
the agent must act under payment disposition instructions, which the provider may modify or revoke at any time; and
in receiving the payment, the agent must act only on behalf of the provider, except insofar as the agent uses part of that payment to compensate the agent for the agent’s billing and collection services.

Medicaid regulations similarly provide that payments may be received by billing agents in the name of their customers without violating anti-assignment requirements if payment to the agent is related to the cost of the billing service, not related on a percentage basis to the amount billed or collected, and not dependent on collection of payment.

Electronic Prescribing Laws

States have differing prescription format and signature requirements. Many existing laws and regulations, when enacted, did not anticipate the methods of e-commerce now being developed. However, due in part to recent industry initiatives, federal law and the laws of all 50 states now permit the electronic transmission of

95


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

prescription orders. In addition, on November 7, 2005, the Department of Health and Human Services published its final E-Prescribing and the Prescription Drug Program regulations, referred to below as the E-Prescribing Regulations. These regulations are required by the Medicare Prescription Drug Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) and became effective beginning on January 1, 2006. The E-Prescribing Regulations consist of detailed standards and requirements, in addition to the HIPAA standards discussed previously, for prescription and other information transmitted electronically in connection with a drug benefit covered by the MMA’s Prescription Drug Benefit. These standards cover not only transactions between prescribers and dispensers for prescriptions but also electronic eligibility and benefits inquiries and drug formulary and benefit coverage information. The standards apply to prescription drug plans participating in the MMA’s Prescription Drug Benefit. Aspects of our services are affected by such regulation, as our customers need to comply with these requirements.

Anti-Tampering Laws

For certain prescriptions that cannot or may not be transmitted electronically from physician to pharmacy, both federal and state laws require that the written forms used exhibit anti-tampering features. For example, the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans’ Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act of 2007 has since April 2008 required that most prescriptions covered by Medicaid must demonstrate security features that prevent copying, erasing, or counterfeiting of the written form. Because our customers will, on occasion, need to use printed forms, we must take these laws into consideration for purposes of the prescription functions of PracticePro.

Electronic Health Records Certification Requirements

The HITECH Act directs the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, or ONCHIT, to support and promote meaningful use of certified EHR technology nationwide through the adoption of standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria as well as the establishment of certification programs for EHR technology. In January 2011, HHS issued a final rule to establish a permanent certification program for EHR technology, including how organizations can become ONC-Authorized Certification Bodies (ONC-ACBs). ONC-ATBs are required to certify that EHR technology is compliant with the standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria adopted by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and meet the definition of “certified EHR technology.” In July 2010, the Secretary published the final rule that adopted standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for EHR technology. Our web-based EHR solution was certified as a 2014 Edition compliant Complete Ambulatory EHR by ICSA Labs, an ONC-ACB, in accordance with the applicable eligible provider certification criteria adopted by the Secretary. While we believe our system is well designed in terms of function and interoperability, we cannot be certain that it will meet future requirements.

United States Food and Drug Administration

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has promulgated guidance documents and regulations for its oversight, as medical devices, of various computer software products. Some of these materials reflect the agency’s assertion of its authority and potential to regulate software products similar to our products under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended (FDCA). While FDA has sometimes chosen to disclaim authority to or to refrain from actively regulating certain software products which are similar to our products, this area of medical device regulation remains in flux. We expect that FDA will continue to be active in exploring legal regimes for regulating computer software intended for use in healthcare settings, by healthcare providers and by consumers. In April 2014, for example, FDA, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONCHIT) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released a number of recommendations for regulating health-related information technologies. It remains unclear when, whether and how FDA’s regulation of products within our sphere of operations will develop over time.

FDA has a number of options for regulating products — including software products — which it considers to be “medical devices” under the FDCA. These include: (a) requiring proof of their safety and efficacy prior to marketing (premarket approval); (b) requiring the manufacturer to demonstrate their “substantial equivalence” to other, existing, legally marketed software device products (premarket clearance under Section 510k of the FDCA); or (c) requiring that they be produced under controlled conditions of

96


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

design, development and manufacture. Delays and expenditures related to obtaining premarket approval or premarket clearance for our products, for example, could materially affect our business.

Under the FDCA, medical devices include any instrument, apparatus, machine, contrivance, or other similar or related article that is intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. FDA regulations govern, among other things, product development, testing, manufacture, packaging, labeling, storage, clearance or approval, advertising and promotion, sales and distribution, and import and export. FDA requirements which may apply to any of our products deemed medical devices — regardless of their need for premarket approval or premarket clearance — can include:

Our registering and listing our devices with FDA;
implementing and maintaining systems to ensure compliance with FDA’s Quality System Regulations, or QSR, which requires manufacturers, including third-party or contract manufacturers, to follow design, testing, control, documentation, and other quality assurance procedures during product development and manufacturing;
complying with labeling requirements and prohibitions against certain advertising and promotion of our products, particularly those related to so-called “off-label” uses;
complying with medical device reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their devices may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur;
complying with corrections and removal reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA any field corrections and product recalls or removals if undertaken to reduce a risk to health posed by the device or to remedy a violation of the FDCA that may present a risk to health; and
complying with post-market surveillance regulations, which apply when necessary to protect the public health or to provide additional safety and effectiveness data for the device.

Any of these activities can be expected to impose additional overhead costs on us. In addition, should we fail to adequately meet these legal obligations, we would face potential regulatory action in the form of, for example, public warning letters, fines, injunctions, civil penalties, recall or seizure of products, compulsory repair, refund or replacement of defective products by us, total or partial suspension of production, loss or refusal of marketing permission, denial of government contracts, and criminal prosecutions.

Anti-Bribery Laws

The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows.

Foreign Regulations

Our subsidiary in Pakistan is subject to additional regulations by the Government of Pakistan. These regulations include federal and local corporation requirements, health information transmission requirements and restrictions, restrictions on exchange of funds, employment-related laws, and qualification for tax status and tax incentives.

Intellectual Property

We protect our intellectual property rights by relying on federal, state and common law rights, as well as contractual restrictions. We control access to our proprietary technology by entering into confidentiality, invention assignment and work for hire agreements with our employees and contractors, and confidentiality agreements with third parties. In this way, we have historically chosen to protect our software and other

97


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

technological intellectual property as trade secrets. We further control the use of our proprietary technology and intellectual property through provisions in our websites' terms of use.

As of December, 2013, we had one U.S. patent pending relating to our automated patient reminder call service, and three U.S. registered trademarks and service marks for “MTBC,” “MTBC.com” and “A Unique Healthcare IT Company”. We are also the registered holder of more than 100 domestic and international domain names.

Circumstances outside our control could pose a threat to our intellectual property rights. For example, effective intellectual property protection may not be available in the United States or other countries in which we seek protection of our marks. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights may harm our business or our ability to compete.

Seasonality

There is moderate seasonality in our revenues caused by fluctuations in discretionary patient visits to medical practices, since our revenue is primarily generated from reimbursements received by our health care provider customers. The number of patients visiting our customers during the summer and winter holiday seasons is generally lower as compared to other times of the year, which reduces collections one to two months later. In addition, at the start of every year our revenues decrease due to patients’ insurance deductibles, which typically reset in January. The rate of insurance reimbursements offset by deductibles is typically higher in the first three months of every year. Deductibles are typically 8% of billings in the first quarter of the year, and 4% during the rest of the year.

Employees

As of December 31, 2013, not including the employees of the Target Sellers, we had approximately 1,075 employees, including 1,050 full-time employees in Pakistan, and 27 full-time employees in the United States. As of December 31, 2013, pro forma for the acquisition of the Target Sellers, we would have had approximately 315 U.S. employees, and approximately 1,050 employees located in our offshore offices in Pakistan.

Facilities

We do not own any real property. We lease our existing 2,400 square foot facility located at 7 Clyde Road, Somerset, New Jersey, under a lease that extends through September 30, 2017. We also lease an approximately 1,000 square foot facility in Ontario, Ohio. Additionally, we lease approximately 48,100 square feet of office space and server facilities in Pakistan.

Legal Proceedings

We are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings. We may, from time to time, be party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of our business. As our growth continues, we may become party to an increasing number of litigation matters and claims. The outcome of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty and the resolution of these matters could materially affect our future results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Our board of directors has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other principal executive and senior financial officers.

Board Composition

Upon completion of this offering, our board of directors will consist of five directors, three of whom will qualify as “independent” directors according to the rules and regulations of the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, or NASDAQ. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, which will be effective upon the completion of this offering, will provide for a classified board of directors divided into three classes with members of each class of directors serving staggered three-year terms. As a result, a portion of our board of directors will be elected each year. Mr. Daly has been designated a Class I director whose term will expire at the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Clark and Mr. Snyder have been designated Class II directors whose term will expire at the 2015 annual meeting of stockholders, and Mr. Munter and Mr. Haq have been designated Class III directors whose term will expire at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will also provide that that the number of authorized directors will be determined from time to time by resolution of the board of directors and any vacancies in our board and newly created directorships may be filled only by our board of directors. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes, so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the total number of directors. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will further provide for the removal of a director only for cause and by the affirmative vote of the holders of 66 2/3% or more of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of our directors. These provisions and the classification of our board of directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the control of MTBC.

Director Independence

Our board of directors has considered the relationships of all directors with us and the independence of each director, and determined that Messrs. Cameron Munter, Howard Clark, and John Daly, do not have any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibility as a director and that each non-employee director qualifies as an independent director under the applicable rules of NASDAQ.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee, and a nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which will operate pursuant to a separate charter adopted by our

101

All members of our compensation committee are independent under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, NASDAQ and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. We expect to satisfy the member independence requirements for the compensation committee prior to the end of the transition period provided under current NASDAQ listing standards and SEC rules and regulations for companies completing their initial public offering. The compensation committee will operate under a written charter that will satisfy the applicable standards of the SEC and NASDAQ.

The compensation committee’s responsibilities include:

reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of our chief executive officer;

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the compensation committee is or has at any time during the past fiscal year been an officer or employee of the company. None of our executive officers serve or in the past fiscal year has served as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any other entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our board of directors or compensation committee.

Non-Employee Director Compensation

In June 2013, we implemented a policy under which we pay our non-employee directors $30,000 per annum for service as directors, plus an additional $10,000 per annum for the chairman of our audit committee. In addition, we reimburse our non-employee directors for expenses incurred by them associated with attending meetings of our board of directors and committees of our board of directors. We did not compensate non-employee directors for service as directors during 2011 and 2012. On April 2, 2014 we granted each independent director 22,500 Restricted Stock Units, which will vest over three years.

Executive Employment Arrangements.

The current base salary of Messrs. Haq, Snyder, and Korn, is $120,000 per annum. In addition, Mr. Korn currently receives regular bonus payments in the same amounts and at the same time as his base salary, and Mr. Snyder receives quarterly bonus payments in the amount of $10,000 each. In addition, Mr. Haq received a bonus of $70,227 in the year ended December 31, 2013 and Mr. Snyder received a discretionary bonus in the amount of $25,000 in the year ended December 31, 2013. As a privately-held corporation, the salaries and bonuses for our named executive officers for periods prior to this offering have been determined by Mr. Haq in his role as Chief Executive Officer and principal stockholder based on his determination of appropriate compensation for a private company of our size, as well as prevailing market rates. Prior to the offering, none of our named executive officers is a party to an employment agreement with us.

Effective upon the closing of the offering, we will enter into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers approved by our board of directors, the terms of which are described below.

Setting Named Executive Compensation.

On April 2, 2014, our board of directors approved employment agreements for each of our named executive officers. In determining compensation for these officers, the Board retained an independent consultant who specializes in compensation strategy and plan design to assist it in making decisions regarding salaries, bonuses, annual incentive awards and long-term equity incentives for our named executive officers.

Effective as of the date of this Prospectus, we will be a party to employment agreements with each of the Messrs. Haq, Snyder and Korn (the“Employment Agreements”). Each of the Employment Agreements has a two-year term unless earlier terminated, and is automatically renew at the end of the initial term and annually thereafter in each case, for a one year term, unless either party provides at least ninety days’ prior written notice of non-renewal.

104


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Each Employment Agreement provides for the payment of base salary and bonus, as well as customary employee benefits. Under each of the Employment Agreements, if the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without“cause” or by the executive if a“material demotion,” occurs (as such terms are defined in the applicable Employment Agreement) the executive shall receive salary continuation payments for the remainder of the contractual term, but not in no event for less than twenty-four months with respect to Mr. Haq and twelve months for each of Messrs. Snyder and Korn. In addition to salary continuation payments, executive shall receive payment of“COBRA” premiums for the executive and his dependents as long as the executive does not become eligible for health coverage through another employer during this severance period. Each of the Employment Agreements also restricts the executive from engaging in a competitive business during his employment and for 12 months thereafter, or soliciting our employees and customers of the company during his employment and for 12 months thereafter.

After completion of this offering, our compensation committee, currently comprised of Messrs. Daly and Munter, will be tasked with discharging the Board of Directors’ responsibilities related to oversight of compensation of named executive officers and ensuring that our executive compensation program meets our corporate objectives. The compensation committee will be responsible for reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our named executive officers, as well as evaluating their performance in light of those goals and objectives. Based on this review and evaluation, as well as on input from our Chief Executive Officer regarding the performance of our other named executive officers and his recommendations as to their compensation, the Committee will determine and approve each named executive officer’s compensation annually. As a public company, our named executive officers will not play a role in their own compensation determinations.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End

None of our named executive officers had any outstanding equity awards as of December 31, 2013.

On April 2, 2014, we granted Restricted Stock Units to our named executive officers as follows:

Stephen Snyder: 100,000 shares
Bill Korn:  50,000 shares

These RSUs provide for annual vesting based on continued employment over three years.

Employee Benefit Plans

2014 Equity Incentive Plan

In connection with this offering, we will adopt the Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2014 Plan, the material terms of which are described below.

Purpose.  The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to promote our success by linking the personal interests of our employees, officers, directors and consultants to those of our stockholders, and by providing participants with an incentive for outstanding performance.

Permissible Awards.  The 2014 Plan authorizes the grant of awards in any of the following forms:

Options to purchase shares of common stock, which may be nonstatutory stock options or incentive stock options under the Code. The exercise price of an option granted under the 2014 Plan may not be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Stock options granted under the 2014 Plan have a term of ten years.
Stock appreciation rights, or SARs, which give the holder the right to receive the excess, if any, of the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of exercise, over the base price of the stock appreciation right. The base price of a SAR may not be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. SARs granted under the 2014 Plan have a term of ten years.
Restricted stock, which is subject to restrictions on transferability and subject to forfeiture on terms set by the Compensation Committee.

105


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Restricted stock units, which represent the right to receive shares of common stock (or an equivalent value in cash or other property) in the future, based upon the attainment of stated vesting or performance goals set by the Compensation Committee.
Deferred stock units, which represent the right to receive shares of common stock (or an equivalent value in cash or other property) in the future, generally without any vesting or performance restrictions.
Other stock-based awards in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, including unrestricted stock grants.
Cash-based awards in the discretion of the Compensation Committee, including cash-based performance awards.

All awards will be evidenced by a written award certificate between MTBC and the participant, which will include such provisions as may be specified by the Compensation Committee. Dividend equivalent rights, which entitle the participant to payments in cash or property calculated by reference to the amount of dividends paid on the shares of stock underlying an award, may be granted with respect to awards other than options or SARs.

Awards to Non-Employee Directors.  Awards granted under the 2014 Plan to non-employee directors will be made only in accordance with the terms, conditions and parameters of a plan, program or policy for the compensation of non-employee directors as in effect from time to time. The Committee may not make discretionary grants under the 2014 Plan to non-employee directors. The maximum aggregate number of shares underlying any award granted under the 2014 Plan in any 12-month period to any one non-employee director is [    ] shares.

Shares Available for Awards; Adjustments.  Subject to adjustment as provided in the 2014 Plan, the aggregate number of shares of common stock reserved and available for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2014 Plan is 1,351,000. In the event of a nonreciprocal transaction between MTBC and its stockholders that causes the per share value of the common stock to change (including, without limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, spin-off, rights offering, or large nonrecurring cash dividend), the share authorization limits under the 2014 Plan will be adjusted proportionately, and the Compensation Committee must make such adjustments to the 2014 Plan and awards as it deems necessary, in its sole discretion, to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights immediately resulting from such transaction.

Administration.  The 2014 Plan will be administered by the Compensation Committee. The Committee will have the authority to grant awards; designate participants; determine the type or types of awards to be granted to each participant and the number, terms and conditions thereof; establish, adopt or revise any rules and regulations as it may deem advisable to administer the 2014 Plan; and make all other decisions and determinations that may be required under the 2014 Plan. The Board of Directors may at any time administer the 2014 Plan. If it does so, it will have all the powers of the Compensation Committee under the 2014 Plan. In addition, the Board may expressly delegate to a special committee some or all of the Compensation Committee’s authority, within specified parameters, to grant awards to eligible participants who, at the time of grant, are not executive officers.

Limitations on Transfer; Beneficiaries.  No award will be assignable or transferable by a participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; provided, however, that the Compensation Committee may permit other transfers (other than transfers for value) where the Compensation Committee concludes that such transferability does not result in accelerated taxation, does not cause any option intended to be an incentive stock option to fail to qualify as such, and is otherwise appropriate and desirable, taking into account any factors deemed relevant, including without limitation, any state or federal tax or securities laws or regulations applicable to transferable awards. A participant may, in the manner determined by the Compensation Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any award upon the participant’s death.

106


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Treatment of Awards upon a Participant’s Death or Disability.  Unless otherwise provided in an award certificate or any special plan document governing an award, upon the termination of a participant’s service due to death or disability:

all of that participant’s outstanding options and SARs will become fully vested;
all time-based vesting restrictions on that participant’s outstanding awards will lapse as of the date of termination; and
the payout opportunities attainable under all of that participant’s outstanding performance-based awards will vest based on target or actual performance measured as of the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of termination (depending on the time during the performance period in which the date of termination occurs) and the awards will payout on a pro rata basis, based on the time elapsed prior to the date of termination.

Treatment of Awards upon a Change in Control.  Unless otherwise provided in an award certificate or any special plan document governing an award:

(A) upon the occurrence of a change in control of MTBC in which awards are not assumed by the surviving entity or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with the change in control in a manner approved by the Compensation Committee or the Board:
all outstanding options and SARs will become fully vested;
all time-based vesting restrictions on outstanding awards will lapse as of the date of the change in control; and
the payout opportunities attainable under all outstanding performance-based awards will vest based on target or actual performance measured as of the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the change in control (depending on the time during the performance period in which the change in control occurs) and the awards will payout on a pro rata basis, based on the time elapsed prior to the change in control, and
(B) with respect to awards assumed by the surviving entity or otherwise equitably converted or substituted in connection with a change in control, if within two years after the effective date of the change in control, a participant’s employment is terminated without Cause or the participant resigns for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the 2014 Plan), then:
all of that participant’s outstanding options and SARs will become fully vested;
all time-based vesting restrictions on that participant’s outstanding awards will lapse as of the date of termination; and
the payout opportunities attainable under all of that participant’s outstanding performance-based awards will vest based on target or actual performance measured as of the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date of termination (depending on the time during the performance period in which the date of termination occurs) and the awards will payout on a pro rata basis, based on the time elapsed prior to the date of termination.

Termination and Amendment.  The 2014 Plan will terminate on the tenth anniversary of its adoption, or, if the stockholders approve an amendment to the 2014 Plan that increases the number of shares subject to the 2014 Plan, the tenth anniversary of the date of such approval, unless earlier terminated by the Board or the Compensation Committee. The Board or the Compensation Committee may, at any time and from time to time, terminate or amend the 2014 Plan, but if an amendment to the 2014 Plan would constitute a material amendment requiring stockholder approval under applicable listing requirements, laws, policies or regulations, then such amendment will be subject to stockholder approval. No termination or amendment of the 2014 Plan may adversely affect any award previously granted under the 2014 Plan without the written consent of the participant. Without the prior approval of our stockholders, the 2014 Plan may not be amended to directly or indirectly reprice, replace or repurchase “underwater” options or SARs.

107


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Committee may amend or terminate outstanding awards. However, such amendments may require the consent of the participant and, unless approved by the stockholders or otherwise permitted by the antidilution provisions of the 2014 Plan, (i) the exercise price or base price of an option or SAR may not be reduced, directly or indirectly, (ii) an option or SAR may not be cancelled in exchange for cash, other awards, or options or SARS with an exercise price or base price that is less than the exercise price or base price of the original option or SAR, or otherwise, (iii) we may not repurchase an option or SAR for value (in cash or otherwise) from a participant if the current fair market value of the shares of common stock underlying the option or SAR is lower than the exercise price or base price per share of the option or SAR, and (iv) the original term of an option or SAR may not be extended.

Prohibition on Repricing.  As indicated above under “Termination and Amendment,” outstanding stock options and SARs cannot be repriced, directly or indirectly, without the prior consent of our stockholders. The exchange of an “underwater” option or stock appreciation right (i.e., an option or stock appreciation right having an exercise price or base price in excess of the current market value of the underlying stock) for cash or for another award would be considered an indirect repricing and would, therefore, require the prior consent of our stockholders.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Effects

The following discussion is limited to a summary of the U.S. federal income tax provisions relating to the grant, exercise and vesting of awards under the 2014 Plan and the subsequent sale of common stock acquired under the 2014 Plan. The tax consequences of awards may vary depending upon the particular circumstances, and it should be noted that the income tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof change frequently. This summary applies only to participants who are citizens or residents of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Participants should rely upon their own tax advisors for advice concerning the specific tax consequences applicable to them, including the applicability and effect of state, local, and foreign tax laws.

Nonstatutory Stock Options.  There will be no federal income tax consequences to the optionee or to us upon the grant of a nonstatutory stock option under the 2014 Plan. When the optionee exercises a nonstatutory option, however, he or she will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the common stock received upon exercise of the option at the time of exercise over the exercise price, and we will be allowed a corresponding deduction. Any gain that the optionee realizes when he or she later sells or disposes of the option shares will be short-term or long-term capital gain, depending on how long the shares were held.

Incentive Stock Options.  There typically will be no federal income tax consequences to the optionee or to us upon the grant or exercise of an incentive stock option. If the optionee holds the option shares for the required holding period of at least two years after the date the option was granted and one year after exercise, the difference between the exercise price and the amount realized upon sale or disposition of the option shares will be long-term capital gain or loss, and we will not be entitled to a federal income tax deduction. If the optionee disposes of the option shares in a sale, exchange, or other disqualifying disposition before the required holding period ends, he or she will recognize taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the option shares at the time of exercise (or, if less, the amount realized on the disposition of the shares) over the exercise price, and we will be allowed a federal income tax deduction equal to such amount. While the exercise of an incentive stock option does not result in current taxable income, the excess of the fair market value of the option shares at the time of exercise over the exercise price will be an item of adjustment for purposes of determining the optionee’s alternative minimum taxable income.

Stock Appreciation Rights.  A participant receiving a stock appreciation right will not recognize income, and we will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time the award is granted. When the participant exercises the stock appreciation right, the amount of cash and the fair market value of any shares of common stock received will be ordinary income to the participant and us will be allowed as a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time.

Restricted Stock.  Unless a participant makes an election to accelerate recognition of income to the date of grant as described below, the participant will not recognize income, and we will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time a restricted stock award is granted, provided that the award is subject to restrictions on

108


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

transfer and is subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. When the restrictions lapse, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the common stock as of that date (less any amount he or she paid for the stock), and we will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time. If the participant files an election under Code Section 83(b) within 30 days after the date of grant of the restricted stock, he or she will recognize ordinary income as of the date of grant equal to the fair market value of the stock as of that date (less any amount paid for the stock), and we will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time. Any future appreciation in the stock will be taxable to the participant at capital gains rates. However, if the stock is later forfeited, the participant will not be able to recover the tax previously paid pursuant to the Code Section 83(b) election. To the extent unrestricted dividends are paid during the restricted period under the applicable award agreement, any such dividends will be taxable to the participant at ordinary income tax rates and will be deductible by us unless the participant has made a Code Section 83(b) election, in which case the dividends will thereafter be taxable to the participant as dividends and will not be deductible by us.

Stock Units.  A participant will not recognize income, and we will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time a stock unit award is granted. Upon receipt of shares of common stock (or the equivalent value in cash) in settlement of a stock unit award, a participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the common stock or other property as of that date, and we will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time.

Cash-Based Performance Awards.  A participant will not recognize income, and we will not be allowed a tax deduction, at the time a cash-based performance award is granted (for example, when the performance goals are established). Upon receipt of cash in settlement of the award, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the cash received, and we will be allowed a corresponding federal income tax deduction at that time.

401(k) Plan

We maintain a tax-qualified 401(k) retirement plan for all employees who satisfy certain eligibility requirements, including requirements relating to age and length of service. Under our 401(k) plan, employees may elect to defer up to all eligible compensation, subject to applicable annual Internal Revenue Code limits. We match 100% of contributions made by employees on the first 3% of their salary contributed to our 401(k) plan, and we match 50% of the next 2% of their salary contributed to our 401(k) plan. We intend for our 401(k) plan to qualify under Section 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code so that contributions by employees to our 401(k) plan, and income earned on those contributions, are not taxable to employees until withdrawn from our 401(k) plan.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Agreements

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, each to be effective upon the closing of this offering, will provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers, and may indemnify our employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. However, Delaware law prohibits our amended and restated certificate of incorporation from limiting the liability of our directors for the following:

any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or to our stockholders;
acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; and
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

If Delaware law is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director, then the liability of our directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, as so amended. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation does not eliminate a director’s duty of care and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies, such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief, remain available under Delaware law. This provision also does not affect a director’s responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities laws or other state or federal

109


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

laws. Under our amended and restated bylaws, we will also be empowered to enter into indemnification agreements with our directors, officers, employees and other agents and to purchase insurance on behalf of any person whom we are required or permitted to indemnify.

In addition to the indemnification required in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, we have entered, and intend to continue to enter, into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. These agreements, among other things, require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of our directors or executive officers, or any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request. We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against directors for breach of their fiduciary duties. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and our stockholders. A stockholder’s investment may be harmed to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers pursuant to these indemnification provisions. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, executive officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The following includes a summary of transactions since January 1, 2012 to which we have been a party, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeded $45,400, which is one percent of the average of our total assets at December 31, 2012 and 2013, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or, to our knowledge, beneficial owners of more than 5% of our capital stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than equity and other compensation, termination, change in control and other arrangements, which are described in the section entitled “Executive Compensation.”

Somerset, New Jersey Executive Office Lease

In October 2012, we entered into a five-year lease agreement for our Somerset, New Jersey headquarters with Mahmud Haq, our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and principal stockholder. We paid $65,000 and $66,750 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 respectively, for the lease of this office. The approximate dollar value of the transaction for the period beginning October 2012 and ending September 2017 is $360,000. Prior to entering into the 2012 lease, we leased these offices from Mr. Haq pursuant to predecessor lease agreements whose terms have expired. We believe that the payments we make under this lease are comparable to those that we would have paid under a similar lease with an unrelated third party.

South Brunswick, New Jersey Property Lease

In November 2009, we entered into a three-year lease agreement commencing December 1, 2009 with Mahmud Haq for property located in South Brunswick, New Jersey. This property is primarily used to temporarily house foreign employees visiting our corporate headquarters. The lease automatically renews for additional one-year periods and will terminate on November 30, 2014 unless further renewed. We paid $43,000 and $45,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 respectively, for the lease of this property. The approximate dollar value of the transaction for the period beginning December 1, 2009 and ending December 31, 2014 is $212,000. We believe that the payments we make under this lease are comparable to those that we would have paid under a similar lease with an unrelated third party.

Bagh, Pakistan Office Lease

In May 2008, we entered into a three-year lease agreement for our facilities located in Bagh, Pakistan with Mahmud Haq. The lease has been amended so that the current term of the lease expires on December 31, 2014. We paid $42,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013, for the lease of this office. The approximate dollar value of the transaction, which is denominated in Pakistan rupees, for the period beginning May 2008 and ending December 31, 2014 is approximately $227,000 based on current exchange rates. We believe that the payments we make under this lease are comparable to those that we would have paid under a similar lease with an unrelated third party.

Aircraft Lease

In December 2009, we entered into a nonexclusive aircraft dry lease agreement with Kashmir Air, Inc., an entity owned by Mahmud Haq. The lease, which was subsequently amended and restated, currently provides for our non-exclusive use of a Cessna Citation 501 aircraft for rental payments in the amount of $10,000 per month, and further provides that we are responsible for routine repairs and maintenance of the aircraft. The original term of the lease was for a one year period ending December 23, 2010. The lease is subject to extension for additional one-year periods with the mutual consent of the parties, with the current term of the lease expiring on December 23, 2014. We expensed $128,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, and 2013 respectively, for the lease of the aircraft. The approximate dollar value of the payments made by us for the aircraft lease for the period beginning December 2009 and ending December 2014 is $609,000. In addition, since December 2009, we have paid third parties approximately $102,000 for repairs and maintenance of the aircraft, and $86,000 for the use of hangar space in Trenton, New Jersey for the aircraft. We believe that the payments we make under this lease are comparable to those that we would have paid under a similar lease with an unrelated third party.

Founder Loans and Advances

In February 2013, Mahmud Haq advanced us a loan of $1,000,000, of which a portion was used to repay the outstanding balance on our revolving credit line with TD Bank. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0%. The outstanding principal of this loan, as of December 31, 2013 in the amount of $736,000, together with accrued interest, is due in one installment on July 5, 2015.

From time to time since our formation, we have made loans directly to Mahmud Haq and payments on his behalf, which we collectively characterize as “advances.” Mr. Haq in turn repays these advances to us from time to time. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013 we made $280,000 and $382,000 in the aggregate of advances to Mahmud Haq, respectively. At December 31, 2012 we had $68,000 of outstanding amounts due to us from Mr. Haq with respect to these advances. In October 2013, all advances made by us to Mr. Haq were repaid or applied to offset amounts owed by us to Mr. Haq under the loan he made to us in February 2013. Accordingly, there are no amounts currently due to us from Mr. Haq.

In connection with the set-up of our offices in Pakistan, Mahmud Haq incurred certain expenses on our behalf in the amount of $56,000, which we previously carried on our balance sheet as a note payable to Mr. Haq with no stated interest rate or maturity date. In December 2011, Mr. Haq contributed the amounts outstanding in respect of this payable to our capital.

Loan Guarantees and Repayments

In January 2007, Mahmud Haq guaranteed our loan from Sovereign Bank. Amounts outstanding under this loan were $52,000 and $12,000, respectively, on December 31, 2012 and 2013. We made net repayments of this loan in the amounts of $25,000 and $42,000 respectively, in the 12 months ended December 31, 2012 and 2013.

In January 2011, Mr. Haq guaranteed our loan from TD Bank, which was fully repaid during 2012. Mr. Haq also guaranteed our existing line of credit with TD Bank. Amounts outstanding under this line of credit were $571,000 and $1,015,000, , respectively, on December 31, 2012 and 2013. This line of credit had an original maximum amount of $400,000, which was increased to $750,000 in March 2012 and to $1,215,000 on September 30, 2013.

Customer Relationship

Mr. Haq’s wife is a physician who is a customer of ours. Revenues from this customer were approximately $17,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2013. On each of December 31, 2012 and 2013, the receivable balance due from this customer was $1,700.

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

Immediately following the completion of this offering, the audit committee will have the primary responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving “related party transactions,” which are transactions between us and related persons in which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be expected to exceed $45,400 and in which a related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. For purposes of this responsibility, a related person will be defined as a director, executive officer, nominee for director, or stockholders who own greater than 5% of our outstanding common stock and their affiliates, in each case since the beginning of the most recently completed fiscal year, and their immediate family members. Our audit committee charter will provide that the audit committee shall review and approve or disapprove any related party transactions. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not adopted any formal standards, responsibilities or procedures governing the review and approval of related-party transactions, but we expect that our audit committee will do so in the future.

112


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Our policy will provide that if advance approval of a related-party transaction is not obtained, it must be promptly submitted to the Audit Committee for possible ratification, approval, amendment, termination or rescission. In reviewing any transaction, the Audit Committee will take into account, among other factors the Audit Committee deems appropriate, recommendations from senior management, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than the terms generally available to a third party in similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction. Any related party transaction must be conducted at arm’s length. Any member of the Audit Committee who is a related person with respect to a transaction under review may not participate in the deliberations or vote on the approval or ratification of the transaction. However, such a director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Audit Committee that considers a transaction.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF OUR CAPITAL STOCK

General

The following description summarizes the most important terms of our capital stock, as they are expected to be in effect upon the completion of this offering. We intend to adopt an amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws which will become effective in connection with the completion of this offering, and this description summarizes the provisions that are expected to be included in such documents. This summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. For a complete description of our capital stock, you should refer to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws that are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, and to the applicable provisions of Delaware law. Immediately following the completion of this offering, our authorized capital stock will consist of 19,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.

As of April   , 2014, there were 5,101,770 shares of our common stock outstanding, held by seven stockholders of record. Our board of directors is authorized, without stockholder approval, except as required by the listing standards of NASDAQ, to issue additional shares of our capital stock.

Common Stock

Dividend Rights

Subject to preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock outstanding at the time, the holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive dividends out of funds legally available if our board of directors, in its discretion, determines to issue dividends and then only at the times and in the amounts that our board of directors may determine. See the section titled “Dividend Policy” for additional information.

Voting Rights

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. We have not provided for cumulative voting for the election of directors in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation establishes a classified board of directors that is divided into three classes with staggered three-year terms. Only the directors in one class will be subject to election by a plurality of the votes cast at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the directors in the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms.

No Preemptive or Similar Rights

Our common stock is not entitled to preemptive rights, and is not subject to conversion, redemption or sinking fund provisions.

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

If we become subject to a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the assets legally available for distribution to our stockholders would be distributable ratably among the holders of our common stock and any participating preferred stock outstanding at that time, subject to prior satisfaction of all outstanding debt and liabilities and the preferential rights of and the payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Preferred Stock

Following this offering, our board of directors will be authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by Delaware law, to issue preferred stock in one or more series, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each series, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each series and any of its qualifications, limitations or restrictions, in each case without further vote or action by our stockholders. Our board of directors can also increase or decrease the number of shares of any series

115


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of preferred stock, but not below the number of shares of that series then outstanding, without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Our board of directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control of our company and might adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock. We have no current plan to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Exclusive Jurisdiction

Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for: (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of us; (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees or agents to the us or the our stockholders; (iii) any action asserting a claim against us arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended and restated bylaws; (iv) any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or our amended and restated bylaws; or (v) any action asserting a claim against us governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in each such case, subject to said Court of Chancery having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants therein.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

The provisions of Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of our company. These provisions, which are summarized below, may have the effect of discouraging takeover bids. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Delaware Law

We are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL. In general, Section 203 prohibits a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes mergers, asset sales or other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the stockholder. An “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years of the date on which it is sought to be determined whether such person is an “interested stockholder,” did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws include a number of provisions that could deter hostile takeovers or delay or prevent changes in control of our management team, including the following:

Classified Board.  Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will provide that our board is initially classified into three classes of directors in the year in which it is adopted, and that in the third year after adoption into two classes of directors. A third party may be discouraged from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us as it is more difficult and time consuming for stockholders to replace a majority of the directors on a classified board of directors. See the section titled “Management — Board of Directors” for additional information.

116


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations.  Our amended and restated bylaws will provide advance notice procedures for stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders. Our amended and restated bylaws will also specify certain requirements regarding the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions might preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders if the proper procedures are not followed. We expect that these provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our company.
No Cumulative Voting.  The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws will not provide for cumulative voting.
Directors Removed Only for Cause.  Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation will provide that stockholders may remove directors only for cause and with the affirmative vote of 50.1% of the outstanding shares entitled to cast their vote for the election of directors.
Amendment of Charter Provisions.  Any amendment of the above provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation would require approval by holders of at least two-thirds of our then outstanding common stock.
Issuance of Undesignated Preferred Stock.  Our board of directors will have the authority, without further action by the stockholders, to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock with rights and preferences, including voting rights, designated from time to time by our board of directors. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock would enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or other means.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

Upon the completion of this offering, the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock will be VStock Transfer, LLC. The transfer agent and registrar’s address is 77 Spruce Street, Suite 201, Cedarhurst, NY 11516. Our shares of common stock will be issued in uncertificated form only, subject to limited circumstances.

Listing

We have applied for the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “MTBC”.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock, and we cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Future sales of our common stock in the public market, or the availability of such shares for sale in the public market, could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time. As described below, only a limited number of shares will be available for sale shortly after this offering, due to contractual and legal restrictions on resale. Nevertheless, sales of our common stock in the public market after such restrictions lapse, or the perception that those sales may occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price at such time and our ability to raise equity capital in the future.

Following the completion of this offering, and after giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Sellers which will occur upon the completion of this offering, based on the number of shares of our capital stock outstanding as of March   , 2014, we will have a total of [    ] shares of our common stock outstanding. Of these outstanding shares, all of the shares of common stock sold in this offering will be freely tradable, except that any shares purchased in this offering by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, would only be able to be sold in compliance with the Rule 144 limitations described below.

The remaining outstanding shares of our common stock will be deemed “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144. Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if they are registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act, which rules are summarized below. In addition, holders of all or substantially all of our equity securities have entered into lock-up agreements with the underwriters under which they have agreed, subject to specific exceptions, not to sell any of our stock for at least 180 days following the date of this prospectus, as described below. As a result of these agreements, subject to the provisions of Rule 144 or Rule 701, based on an assumed offering date of May   , 2014, shares will be available for sale in the public market as follows:

beginning on the date of this prospectus, the [    ] shares of common stock sold in this offering will be immediately available for sale in the public market;
beginning 181 days after the date of this prospectus, [    ] additional shares of common stock will become eligible for sale in the public market, of which [    ] shares will be held by affiliates and subject to the volume and other restrictions of Rule 144, as described below; and
the remainder of the shares of common stock will be eligible for sale in the public market from time to time thereafter, subject in some cases to the volume and other restrictions of Rule 144, as described below.

Lock-Up Agreements

We, our officers and directors and holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock have agreed that, subject to certain exceptions and under certain conditions, for a period of 180 days after the date of this prospectus, we and they will not, without the prior written consent of Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and Summer Street Research Partners, dispose of or hedge any shares or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of our capital stock or release any shares of our common stock held in escrow on behalf of the Target Sellers during such period of 180 days. Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and Summer Street Research Partners may, in its discretion, release any of the securities subject to these lock-up agreements at any time.

The restrictions described in the immediately preceding paragraph do not apply to the issuance of shares upon the exercise of rights to acquire shares of common stock pursuant to any existing stock option or similar Equity Incentive or compensation Plan;

Escrowed Shares

To secure our indemnity rights in connection with the acquisition of the Target Sellers, all of the stock consideration payable with respect to each acquisition will be held in escrow following the closing of that acquisition, with 15% of the shares issued with respect to each acquisition to be held in escrow for at least six months following the closing. With respect to Omni, an additional 15% of such shares shall be eligible for

118


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

release at nine months following the closing. The remaining share amounts held in escrow respective of each Target Seller will be held in escrow for at least 12 months following the closing. Pursuant to the terms of each escrow agreement, while such shares are held in escrow they may not be transferred, disposed of or hedged by the Target Seller holding such shares.

Rule 144

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, once we have been subject to the public company reporting requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, for at least 90 days, a person who is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates for purposes of the Securities Act at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least six months, including the holding period of any prior owner other than our affiliates, is entitled to sell those shares without complying with the manner of sale, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144, subject to compliance with the public information requirements of Rule 144. If such a person has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least one year, including the holding period of any prior owner other than our affiliates, then that person would be entitled to sell those shares without complying with any of the requirements of Rule 144.

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are entitled to sell upon expiration of the lock-up agreements described above, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding, which will equal approximately      shares immediately after this offering; or
the average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to that sale.

Sales under Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

Rule 701

Rule 701 generally allows a stockholder who purchased shares of our common stock pursuant to a written compensatory plan or contract and who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of our company during the immediately preceding 90 days to sell these shares in reliance upon Rule 144, but without being required to comply with the public information, holding period, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. Rule 701 also permits affiliates of our company to sell their Rule 701 shares under Rule 144 without complying with the holding period requirements of Rule 144. All holders of Rule 701 shares, however, are required by that rule to wait until 90 days after the date of this prospectus before selling those shares pursuant to Rule 701.

CERTAIN MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND ESTATE TAX
CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common stock to non-U.S. holders, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating thereto. This summary is based upon the provisions of the Code, Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as of the date hereof. These authorities may be changed, possibly retroactively, so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those set forth below. We have not sought any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, with respect to the statements made and the conclusions reached in the following summary, and there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with such statements and conclusions.

This summary also does not address the tax considerations arising under the laws of any non-U.S., state or local jurisdiction or under U.S. federal gift and estate tax laws, except to the limited extent set forth below. In addition, this discussion does not address tax considerations applicable to an investor’s particular circumstances or to investors that may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation:

banks, insurance companies or other financial institutions;
persons subject to the alternative minimum tax;
tax-exempt organizations;
controlled foreign corporations, passive foreign investment companies and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;
dealers in securities or currencies;
traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings;
persons that own, or are deemed to own, more than five percent of our capital stock (except to the extent specifically set forth below);
certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;
persons who hold our common stock as a position in a hedging transaction, “straddle,” “conversion transaction” or other risk reduction transaction;
persons who do not hold our common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code; or
persons deemed to sell our common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code.

In addition, if a partnership or entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner generally will depend on the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. Accordingly, partnerships that hold our common stock, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their tax advisors.

You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of the U.S. federal income tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock arising under the U.S. federal estate or gift tax rules or under the laws of any state, local, non-U.S. or other taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty.

Non-U.S. Holder Defined

For purposes of this discussion, you are a non-U.S. holder if you are any holder other than:

an individual citizen or resident of the United States (for tax purposes);
a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;
a partnership or other entity classified as a partnership or flow through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

an estate whose income is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or
a trust (x) whose administration is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and that has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (y) that has made an election to be treated as a U.S. person.

Distributions

We do not anticipate making any distributions on our common stock following the completion of this offering. However, if we do make distributions on our common stock, those payments will constitute dividends for U.S. tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed both our current and our accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital and will first reduce your basis in our common stock, but not below zero, and then will be treated as gain from the sale of stock.

Any dividend paid to you generally will be subject to U.S. withholding tax either at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividend or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. In order to receive a reduced treaty rate, you must provide us with an IRS Form W-8BEN or other appropriate version of IRS Form W-8 certifying qualification for the reduced rate. A non-U.S. holder of shares of our common stock eligible for a reduced rate of U.S. withholding tax pursuant to an income tax treaty may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS. If the non-U.S. holder holds the stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the non-U.S. holder’s behalf, the non-U.S. holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent, which then will be required to provide certification to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries.

Dividends received by you that are effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if an income tax treaty applies, such dividends are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by you in the U.S.), are includible in your gross income in the taxable year received, and are exempt from such withholding tax. In order to obtain this exemption, you must provide us with an IRS Form W-8ECI or other applicable IRS Form W-8 properly certifying such exemption. Such effectively connected dividends, although not subject to withholding tax, are taxed at the same graduated rates applicable to U.S. persons, net of certain deductions and credits, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. In addition, if you are a corporate non-U.S. holder, dividends you receive that are effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business may also be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30% or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty.

Gain on Disposition of Common Stock

You generally will not be required to pay U.S. federal income tax on any gain realized upon the sale or other disposition of our common stock unless:

the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business (and, if an income tax treaty applies, the gain is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by you in the United States);
you are an individual who is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the calendar year in which the sale or disposition occurs and certain other conditions are met; or
our common stock constitutes a U.S. real property interest by reason of our status as a “United States real property holding corporation,” or USRPHC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “USRPHC”) at any time within the shorter of the five-year period preceding your disposition of, or your holding period for, our common stock.

We believe that we are not currently and will not become a USRPHC. However, because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our U.S. real property relative to the fair market value of our other business assets, there can be no assurance that we will not become a USRPHC in the future. Even if we become a USRPHC, however, as long as our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market, such common stock will be treated as U.S. real property

121


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

interests only if you actually or constructively hold more than five percent of such regularly traded common stock at any time during the shorter of the five-year period preceding your disposition of, or your holding period for, our common stock.

If you are a non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet above, you will be required to pay tax on the net gain derived from the sale under regular graduated U.S. federal income tax rates, and a corporate non-U.S. holder described in the first bullet above also may be subject to the branch profits tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. If you are an individual non-U.S. holder described in the second bullet above, you will be required to pay a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which tax may be offset by U.S. source capital losses for the year. You should consult any applicable income tax or other treaties that may provide for different rules.

Federal Estate Tax

Our common stock beneficially owned by an individual who is not a citizen or resident of the United States (as defined for U.S. federal estate tax purposes) at the time of their death will generally be includable in the decedent’s gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes, unless an applicable estate tax treaty provides otherwise.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Generally, we must report annually to the IRS the amount of dividends paid to you, your name and address, and the amount of tax withheld, if any. A similar report will be sent to you. Pursuant to applicable income tax treaties or other agreements, the IRS may make these reports available to tax authorities in your country of residence.

Payments of dividends or of proceeds on the disposition of stock made to you may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding at a current rate of 28% unless you establish an exemption, for example, by properly certifying your non-U.S. status on a Form W-8BEN or another appropriate version of IRS Form W-8. Notwithstanding the foregoing, backup withholding and information reporting may apply if either we or our paying agent has actual knowledge, or reason to know, that you are a U.S. person.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax; rather, the U.S. income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may generally be obtained from the IRS, provided that the required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.

Recently Enacted Legislation Affecting Taxation of our Common Stock Held by or through Foreign Entities

Recently enacted legislation generally will impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on dividends, and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our common stock, paid to a “foreign financial institution” (as specially defined under these rules), unless such institution enters into an agreement with the U.S. government to withhold on certain payments and to collect and provide to the U.S. tax authorities substantial information regarding the U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners). The legislation also generally will impose a U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% on dividends and the gross proceeds of a disposition of our common stock paid to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying the direct and indirect U.S. owners of the entity. This withholding obligation under this legislation with respect to dividends on our common stock will not begin until July 1, 2014 and with respect to the gross proceeds of a sale or other disposition of our common stock will not begin until January 1, 2017. Under certain circumstances, a non-U.S. holder might be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify the requirements described in this paragraph. Prospective investors are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in our common stock.

The preceding discussion of U.S. federal tax considerations is for general information only. It is not tax advice. Each prospective investor should consult its own tax advisor regarding the particular U.S. federal, state and local and non-U.S. tax consequences of purchasing, holding and disposing of our common stock, including the consequences of any proposed change in applicable laws.

UNDERWRITING

Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and Summer Street Research Partners are acting as representatives of each of the underwriters named below. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement among us and the underwriters, we have agreed to sell to the underwriters, and each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase from us, the number of shares of common stock set forth opposite its name below.

 
Underwriter   Number of Shares
Chardan Capital Markets, LLC      
Summer Street Research Partners               
Total         

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, the underwriters have agreed, severally and not jointly, to purchase all of the shares sold under the underwriting agreement if any of these shares are purchased. If an underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the purchase commitments of the nondefaulting underwriters may be increased or the underwriting agreement may be terminated.

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

The underwriters are offering the shares, subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel, including the validity of the shares, and other conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, such as the receipt by the underwriters of officer’s certificates and legal opinions. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

Commissions and Discounts

The underwriters have advised us that they propose initially to offer the shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and to dealers at that price less a concession not in excess of $     per share. After the initial offering of our shares, the public offering price, concession or any other term of the offering may be changed by the representatives. No such change shall change the amount of proceeds to be received by us as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. The shares are offered by the underwriters as stated herein, subject to receipt and acceptance by the underwriters and subject to their right to reject any order in whole or in part. The underwriters have informed us that they do not intend to confirm sales to any accounts over which they exercise discretionary authority.

We have agreed to pay to the underwriter a fee equal to 7% of the aggregate sales price of the shares sold in this offering, which fee is to be paid by means of a discount from the offering price to purchasers in the offering. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse Chardan Capital Markets, LLC (“Chardan”) for all of its agreed-upon, actual and out-of-pocket expenses, including but not limited to reasonable and documented travel, legal fees and other expenses, incurred in connection with the offering, whether or not the offering is completed, subject to presentation of appropriate documentation evidencing such out-of-pocket expenses up to a maximum of $100,000 for all expenses. We estimate that expenses payable by us in connection with this offering, other than the underwriting discounts and commissions referred to above, will be approximately $      .

The following table shows the initial public offering price, underwriting discount and proceeds before expenses to us. The information assumes either no exercise or full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares.

Directed Share Program

At our request, the underwriters have reserved for sale at the initial public offering price up to approximately        shares of our common stock being offered for sale to our directors, officers, employees, customers and other parties related to the Company. We will offer these shares to the extent permitted under applicable regulations in the United States and in various countries. Pursuant to the underwriting agreement, the sales will be made by             through a directed share program. The number of shares of common stock available for sale to the general public will be reduced to the extent that such persons purchase such reserved shares. Any reserved shares not so purchased will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as the other shares offered hereby. We have agreed to indemnify             in connection with the directed share program, including for the failure of any participant to pay for its shares. Other than the underwriting discount described on the front cover of this prospectus, the underwriters will not be entitled to any commission with respect to shares of common stock sold pursuant to the directed share program. Shares offered in the directed share program will not be subject to lock-up agreements, with the exception of the shares to be issued to directors and officers who are already subject to lock-up agreements, as described below.]

Over-Allotment Option

We have granted an option to the underwriters, exercisable for 30 days after the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to      additional shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount, solely to cover shares of common stock sold by the underwriters in excess of the total number of shares set forth in the above table. If the underwriters exercise this option, each will be obligated, subject to conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, to purchase a number of additional shares proportionate to that underwriter’s initial amount reflected in the above table. If any of these additional shares are purchased, the underwriters will offer the additional shares on the same terms as those on which the shares are being offered.

NASDAQ Global Market Listing

We have applied for the listing of our shares of common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “MTBC.” In order to meet the requirements for listing on that exchange, the underwriters have undertaken to sell a minimum number of shares to a minimum number of beneficial owners as required by that exchange.

Initial Public Offering Price

Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common stock. The initial public offering price will be determined through negotiations between us and the representatives. In addition to prevailing market conditions, the factors to be considered in determining the initial public offering price are:

the valuation multiples of publicly traded companies that the representatives believe to be comparable to us,
our financial information,
the history of, and the prospects for, our company and the industry in which we compete,
an assessment of our management, its past and present operations, and the prospects for, and timing of, our future revenues,
the present state of our development, and
the above factors in relation to market values and various valuation measures of other companies engaged in activities similar to ours.

An active trading market for the shares may not develop. It is also possible that after the offering the shares will not trade in the public market at or above the initial public offering price.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

No Sales of Similar Securities

We, our executive officers and directors and the holders of substantially all of our outstanding common stock have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock, for 180 days after the date of this prospectus without first obtaining the written consent of Chardan Capital Markets, LLC and Summer Street Research Partners. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed not to directly or indirectly:

offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock,
sell any option or contract to purchase any common stock,
purchase any option or contract to sell any common stock,
grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock,
lend or otherwise dispose of or transfer any common stock,
request or demand that we file a registration statement related to the common stock,
release any shares of our common stock held in escrow on behalf of the Target Sellers, or
enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition.

Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids

Until the distribution of the shares is completed, SEC rules may limit underwriters and selling group members from bidding for and purchasing our common stock. However, the representatives may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the common stock, such as bids or purchases to peg, fix or maintain that price.

In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. “Covered” short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares described above. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the option granted to them. “Naked” short sales are sales in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of shares of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting discount received by it because the representative has repurchased shares sold by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering transactions.

Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters’ purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher

126


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The underwriters may conduct these transactions on the NASDAQ Global Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representative will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Electronic Distribution

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on websites or through other online services maintained by the underwriters of this offering, or by its affiliates. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on the underwriters’ websites and any information contained in any other website maintained by any underwriter is not part of this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved and/or endorsed by us or such underwriter in its capacity as underwriter, and should not be relied upon by investors.

Other Relationships

Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. In addition, in the ordinary course of their business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area

In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive, or each, a Relevant Member State, with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State, or the “Relevant Implementation Date,” no offer of shares may be made to the public in that Relevant Member State other than:

A. to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive;
B. to fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has implemented the relevant provision of the 2010 PD Amending Directive, 150, natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the representative; or
C. in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive,

provided that no such offer of shares shall require the company or the representative to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.

Each person in a Relevant Member State (other than a Relevant Member State where there is a Permitted Public Offer) who initially acquires any shares or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that (A) it is a “qualified investor” within the meaning of the law in that Relevant Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive, and (B) in the case of any shares acquired by it as a financial intermediary, as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, the shares acquired by it in the offering have not been acquired on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in any Relevant Member State other than “qualified investors” as defined in the Prospectus Directive, or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the representative has been given to the offer or resale. In the case of any shares being offered to a financial intermediary as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, each such financial intermediary

127


 
 

TABLE OF CONTENTS

will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that the shares acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of any shares to the public other than their offer or resale in a Relevant Member State to qualified investors as so defined or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the representative has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale.

We, the representative and our and its affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representation, acknowledgement and agreement.

This prospectus has been prepared on the basis that any offer of shares in any Relevant Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of shares. Accordingly any person making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of shares which are the subject of the offering contemplated in this prospectus may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for us or any of the underwriters to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive in relation to such offer. Neither we nor the underwriters have authorized, nor do we or they authorize, the making of any offer of shares in circumstances in which an obligation arises for us or the underwriters to publish a prospectus for such offer.

For the purpose of the above provisions, the expression “an offer to the public” in relation to any shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the shares, as the same may be varied in the Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in the Relevant Member State and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member States) and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.

In addition, in the United Kingdom, this document is being distributed only to, and is directed only at, and any offer subsequently made may only be directed at persons who are “qualified investors” (as defined in the Prospectus Directive) (i) who have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19 (5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended, or the Order, and/or (ii) who are high net worth companies (or persons to whom it may otherwise be lawfully communicated) falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). This document must not be acted on or relied on in the United Kingdom by persons who are not relevant persons.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Medical Transcription Billing, Corp.
Somerset, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. and subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (loss) income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

General — Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. (“MTBC” or the “Company”) is a healthcare information technology company that offers proprietary electronic health records and patient management solutions, together with related business services, to healthcare providers. The Company’s integrated services are designed to help customers increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs. The Company’s services include full-scale revenue cycle management, electronic health records, and other technology-driven practice management services to private and hospital-employed healthcare providers. MTBC has offices in Somerset, New Jersey, Islamabad, Pakistan and Bagh, Pakistan.

MTBC was founded in 1999 and incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 2001. MTBC Private Limited (or “MTBC Pvt. Ltd.”) is a majority-owned subsidiary of MTBC and was founded in 2004. MTBC owns 99.99% of the authorized outstanding shares of MTBC Pvt. Ltd. and the remaining 0.01% of the shares of MTBC Pvt. Ltd. is owned by the founder and chief executive officer of MTBC.

On April 2, 2014, the Company split its stock 8.65 shares for one. All share and per share amounts have been adjusted for the stock split effective April 2, 2014. All share data information presented within the consolidated financial statements gives effect to the stock split.

Current Business Condition — For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred an operating loss of $127,516 and working capital deficiency at year end was approximately $1.6 million. The current year operating loss was primarily a result of costs of $281,048 related to the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 4. The working capital deficiency is a result of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the acquisitions entered into during 2012 and 2013, as well as the $1.3 million of deferred initial public offering costs. The Company’s line of credit with TD Bank has a limit of $1.2 million and the Company has no further availability under the line as of March 31, 2014. The line of credit renews annually, and currently expires in August 2014. The Company relies on the line of credit, which has been renewed annually for the past three years. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet its cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. Under the current operating model, the Company will exhaust current cash resources if the line of credit is not renewed in August 2014, unless the Company completes additional debt or equity financing by that time.

The Company has no indications that the line of credit would not be renewed, but if the line of credit were not renewed, the Company would need to obtain additional financing. The Company has spoken with banks, debt funds and private equity funds, and believes there are several viable options available to the Company. The Company has not pursued any of these options because it believes they would not be necessary after the completion of the Company’s initial public offering, in which the Company expects to raise additional working capital. If none of the financing events described above transpire, the Company has received a support letter from the holder of the Company’s convertible notes, which demonstrates the investor’s commitment to provide financial support, in the form of purchasing stock, convertible notes, or some other instrument, at an interest rate determined by such investor, of up to $1.2 million, if and as needed, to enable by the Company to continue as a going concern until May 31, 2015. The Company’s owner has also committed, if necessary, to contribute additional capital of up to $400,000.

Correction of Cash Flow Error — Subsequent to the issuance of the 2012 consolidated financial statements, the Company identified an error related to the effect of foreign exchange gains on the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2012. The Company previously reflected the unrealized gain on foreign exchange as an offset to the change in other operating assets line item on the statement of cash flows. Upon further review, the Company corrected the 2012 error and has reflected the unrealized portion of the foreign exchange gain within the effect of exchange rate changes on cash line item

in the 2012 statement of cash flows. This error did not impact the 2012 consolidated balance sheet or the 2012 consolidated statement of operations. The Company has restated the 2012 statement of cash flows as follows:

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary MTBC Pvt. Ltd. The non-controlling interest is inconsequential to the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segment Reporting — The Company views its operations as comprising one operating segment. The Chief Operating Decision Maker, which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, monitors and reviews financial information at a consolidated level for assessing operating results and the allocation of resources.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include, but are not limited to: (1) revenue recognition; (2) asset impairments; (3) depreciable lives of assets; (4) allowance for doubtful accounts and (5) fair value of identifiable purchased tangible and intangible assets, including determination of expected customer life. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition — The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable.

Since the Company’s customers do not run its software on their own hardware or that of a third party, and do not have the right to take possession of the software at any time, the two criteria required for an offering to be considered to include a software element as required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 985-605, Software — Revenue Recognition, are not met. As a result, the Company recognizes revenue as a service for all of its offerings in accordance with service revenue guidance at ASC 605-20, Revenue Recognition — Services.

The Company bills its customers on a monthly basis, in arrears. Approximately ninety percent of revenue comes from its comprehensive PracticePro product suite, which includes revenue cycle management, practice management services and electronic health records. The fees charged to customers for the services provided under the PracticePro service suite are normally based upon a percentage of collections posted during the month. Fees charged to customers for the services provided under the PracticePro service suite are typically based on a percentage of net collections on the Company’s clients’ accounts receivable. The Company does

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

not recognize revenue for PracticePro service fees until the Company has received notification that a claim has been accepted and the amount which the physician will collect is determined, as the fees are not fixed and determinable until such time.

As it relates to fees charged to PracticePro customers at the outset of an arrangement, the Company charges a set fee which includes account set up, creating a website for the customer, establishing credentials, and training the customer’s office staff. This service does not have stand-alone value separate from the ongoing revenue cycle management, electronic health records and practice management services. The fees are deferred and recognized as revenue over the estimated customer relationship period (currently estimated to be five years).

The Company also generates revenue from a variety of ancillary services, including transcription services, patient statement services, coding services, platform usage fees for clients using third-party platforms, rebates received from third-party platforms, and consulting fees. Ancillary services are charged at a fixed fee per unit of work, such as per line transcribed or per patient statement prepared, and the Company recognizes revenue monthly as it performs the services.

The Company’s revenue arrangements generally do not include a general right of return for services provided.

Direct Operating Costs — Direct operating costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to clients, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to the Company’s services. Costs associated with the implementation of new clients are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating costs include allocated amounts for rent and overhead costs. Depreciation and amortization have not been allocated and are presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations.

Research and Development Expenses — Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs. All such costs are expensed as incurred.

Advertising Costs — The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. The Company incurred approximately $61,536 and $114,209 of advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which are included in selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. Accounts receivable are presented on the balance sheet net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is established based on reviews of receivable balances, an assessment of the customers’ current creditworthiness and the probability of collection.

The movement in the allowances for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

   
  2013   2012
Beginning balance   $ 250,520     $ 159,394  
(Reversals) provision     (32,824 )      102,379  
Write offs and adjustments     (159,513 )      (11,253 ) 
Ending balance   $ 58,183     $ 250,520  

Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Depreciation for computers is calculated over three years, while remaining assets (except leasehold improvements) are depreciated over five years.

The Company amortizes leasehold improvements over the lesser of the lease term or the economic life of those assets. Generally, the lease term is the base lease term plus certain renewal option periods for which renewal is reasonably assured and for which failure to exercise the renewal option would result in an economic penalty to the Company.

Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets — Intangible assets include customer contracts and relationships and covenants not-to-compete acquired in connection with acquisitions, as well as software purchase and development costs. These intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over three years, which reflects the pattern in which economic benefits are expected to be realized. The Company concluded that use of the straight-line method was appropriate as the majority of the cash flows are expected to be recognized ratably over the estimated useful lives, without a significant degradation of the cash flows over time. The customer relationships and associated contracts represent the most significant portion of the value of the purchase price for every acquisition.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the asset.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded impairment charges of $126,272, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. These impairment charges are due to the loss of customer relationships that were valued and recorded as part of the acquisition of Medical Accounting Billing Company, Inc. during 2010. There was no impairment of intangibles or long-lived assets during the year ended December 31, 2013.

Software Development Costs — Software development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were approximately $386,109 and $396,425, respectively. Software development expenses are disclosed as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations as research and development costs. There were no software costs capitalized for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Business Combinations — The Company accounts for business combinations under the provisions of ASC 805-10, Business Combinations, which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. The Company has concluded that each of the businesses whose assets were acquired or are to be acquired constitute a business in accordance with ASC 805-10-55.

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including non-controlling interests, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date with changes in the fair value after the acquisition date affecting earnings. Changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the measurement period will affect income tax expense.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets will more likely than not be realized. All available positive and negative evidence is considered in making such a determination, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. A valuation allowance would be recorded to reduce deferred income tax assets when it is determined that the Company would not be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount.

The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that required recognition. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in income tax expense. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not recognize any penalties or interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in its consolidated financial statements.

Deferred Rent — Deferred rent consists of rent escalation payment terms related to the Company’s operating leases for its facilities. Deferred rent represents the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense, which is recorded by the Company over the term of the lease, including any construction period. The excess of the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense is recorded as a deferred credit in the early periods of the lease when cash payments are generally lower than straight-line rent expense, and is reduced in the later periods of the lease when payments begin to exceed the straight-line expense.

Deferred Revenue — Deferred revenue primarily consists of payments received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria being met. Deferred revenue includes certain deferred implementation services fees that are recognized as revenue ratably over the longer of the life of the agreement or the estimated expected customer life, which is currently estimated to be five years. Deferred revenue that will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period is recorded as current deferred revenue and the remaining portion is recorded as non-current. At the time of customer termination, any unrecognized service fees associated with implementation services are recognized as revenue.

Fair Value Measurements — ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Company follows a fair value measurement hierarchy to measure financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 —  Inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Level 2 —  Inputs are directly or indirectly observable, which include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 —  Inputs are unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value to the extent observable inputs are not available.

On September 23, 2013, the Company issued a convertible note that includes a contingent convertible feature that is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company has certain financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These financial instruments are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances and include cash, notes receivable from shareholder, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, borrowings under term loans and line of credit, and notes payable (see Note 15).

Foreign Currency Translation — The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiary, located in Pakistan, are translated from rupees, its functional currency, into U.S. dollars, the Company’s functional currency. All foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate, and all revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The effects of translating the financial statements of the foreign subsidiary into U.S. dollars are reported as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity, except for transactions related to the intercompany receivable for which transaction adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as they are not deemed to be permanently reinvested. Foreign currency transaction gains/losses are reported as a component of other income — net in the consolidated statements of operations and amounted to gains of $199,919 and $153,499 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Initial Public Offering Costs — Initial public offering costs consist principally of professional fees, primarily legal and accounting, and other costs such as printing and registration costs incurred in connection with the planned initial public offering (“IPO”) of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2013, the Company incurred $1,312,850 of costs directly attributable to its proposed IPO, which have been deferred and recorded in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet, including $430,125 which has been accrued but not yet paid. Such costs are deferred until the closing of the offering, at which time the deferred costs are offset against the offering proceeds. In the event the offering is unsuccessful or aborted, the costs will be expensed. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred $281,048 of professional fees related to the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 4, which are included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

In May 2011, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, which substantially converged the requirements for fair value measurement and disclosure between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). This ASU is largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles under U.S. GAAP. The additional disclosures required by this ASU for items that are not measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets, but for which fair value is required to be disclosed in the footnotes, have been included in Note 15.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

In February 2013, the FASB issued amended guidance on the disclosure of accumulated other comprehensive income. The amendments to the previous guidance require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statements of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to the statement of operations. The Company adopted this guidance in 2013 on a prospective basis, which did not impact its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740) — Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This amendment clarifies the guidance on the presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

3. NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the year under the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, dilutive securities are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the periods and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at an average market price during the period. Securities are excluded from the computations of diluted net (loss) income per share if their effects would be antidilutive to net (loss) income per share.

The following table reconciles the weighted-average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net (loss) income per share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:

   
  2013   2012
Basic:
           
Net (loss) income   $ (177,996 )    $ 116,998  
Weighted-average shares used in computing basic earnings per share     5,101,770       5,101,770

  UPMS   GNet   MM   HCS   Total

The fixed rate on the promissory notes issued in conjunction with the Company’s business acquisitions approximate fair value based on interest rates currently available to the Company on similar debts at the dates of the respective acquisitions. The variable rate notes are based on a multiple of the U.S. prime rate.

The fair values assigned to the intangible assets acquired are based on management’s estimates and assumptions and are based on the information that was available as of the date of each acquisition. The Company believes that the recorded intangible assets from the UPMS, GNet, MM, and HCS acquisitions are supported by the anticipated revenues and expected synergies of integrating the operations of UPMS, GNet, MM, and HCS into the Company. The following table summarizes the allocation of the purchase prices to the fair values of intangible assets acquired for each acquisition:

         
  UPMS   GNet   MM   HCS   Total

5. CONCENTRATIONS

Financial Risks — As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company held $440,309 and $220,950, respectively, of its cash at its subsidiary at a bank in Pakistan, representing approximately one month of Pakistan operations expense at the end of 2013 and half a month at the end of 2012. The banking system in Pakistan does not provide deposit insurance coverage. Additionally, from time to time, the Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions in the United States of America in excess of federal insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are managed by periodic credit evaluations of customers, and the Company generally does not require collateral. No one customer accounts for a significant portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable portfolio and write-offs have been minimal. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had one customer that represented approximately 5% and 6% of total sales, respectively.

Geographical Risks — The Company’s offices in Islamabad and Bagh, Pakistan, conduct significant back-office operations for the Company. The Company has no revenue outside the United States. The office in Bagh is located in a different territory of Pakistan from the Islamabad office. The Bagh office was opened in 2009 for the purpose of providing operational support and operating as a backup to the Islamabad office. The Company’s operations in Pakistan are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the United States. The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environment in Pakistan and by the general state of Pakistan’s economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, changes in Pakistan’s telecommunications industry, regulatory rules and policies, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Total   $ 1,534,780  

8. GOODWILL

Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is evaluated for impairment annually, or whenever events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. Conditions that could trigger a more frequent impairment assessment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change to the Company in certain agreements, significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, loss of customer relationships, an economic downturn in customers' industries, or increased competition.

The first step of the goodwill impairment test is a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit is based upon information available regarding prices of similar groups of assets, or other valuation techniques including present value techniques based upon estimates of future cash flows. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired and the second step is unnecessary. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the goodwill to the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the goodwill is greater than the implied value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. The implied value of goodwill is determined by performing a hypothetical purchase price allocation, as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. The fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit, including any unrecognized intangible assets. Any excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and liabilities represents the implied fair value of goodwill.

9. NOTES PAYABLE AND LINE OF CREDIT  – (continued)

Convertible Note — On September 23, 2013, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $500,000 to an accredited investor that matures on March 23, 2016. The convertible note accrues interest at the rate of 7% per year and all principal and interest are due and payable on the maturity date, March 23, 2016. If, prior to the maturity date, the Company completes an initial public offering of its common stocks, the note will be automatically converted into the number of shares of common stock equivalent to the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the note divided by a conversion price equal to 90% of the per-share issuance price for common stocks issued in the initial public offering.

The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt and equity instruments issued to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. In circumstances where the convertible instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument. The contingent redemption feature of this promissory note represents an embedded derivative instrument under ASC 815 that is required to be accounted for separately from the debt instrument.

As of December 31, 2013, the carrying value of the convertible note payable was $472,429, including $11,767 of accrued interest.

The Company accounted for the contingent redemption feature as a derivative liability to be recorded at fair value at each reporting period. The value of the derivative liability will be re-measured at each reporting period with changes in fair value included in earnings. The fair value of the contingent redemption feature at inception was estimated to be $39,338 at September 23, 2013, the date of issuance. As of December 31, 2013 the value has been estimated $38,142 and is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that required recognition. The Company is subject to taxation in the United States, various states and Pakistan. As of December 31, 2013, tax years 2010 through 2012 remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions in which the Company is subject to tax. The Pakistan Federal Board of Revenue issued a tax holiday, which precludes the Pakistan subsidiary from being subject to income taxes through June of 2016.

The Company’s plan to repatriate earnings in Pakistan to the United States requires that US Federal taxes be provided on the Company’s earnings in Pakistan. For state tax purposes, the Company’s Pakistan earnings generally are not taxed due to a subtraction modification available in most states.

The Pakistan tax holiday does not have a significant impact on the Company’s effective tax rate as all of its earnings in Pakistan are fully provided for at the U.S. federal tax rate of 34%. The Pakistan corporate tax rate is 35%. The Company’s income taxes would not have been significantly higher as a result of the holiday.

The Company has state NOL carry forwards of $2,433,036 which will expire at various dates from 2032 to 2033.

or by proxy, of holders of shares representing a majority of the outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote at a stockholders’ meeting shall constitute a quorum. When a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter is required to take action, unless otherwise specified by law or the Company’s certificate of incorporation, and except for the election of directors, which is determined by a plurality vote. There are no cumulative voting rights.

Dividend Rights

Each holder of shares of the Company’s capital stock will be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions in cash, stock or property as may be declared by the Company’s Board of Directors from time to time out of the Company’s assets or funds legally available for dividends or other distributions. These rights are subject to the preferential rights of any other class or series of the Company’s preferred stock.

The Company does, and intends to continue to, retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of the Company’s business, and therefore the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Additionally, the Company’s ability to pay dividends on the Company’s common stock will be limited by restrictions on the ability of the subsidiary of the Company and the Company to pay dividends or make distributions under the terms of current and any future agreements governing the Company’s indebtedness. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to compliance with covenants in the Company’s current and future agreements governing the Company’s indebtedness, and will depend upon the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that the Company’s Board of Directors deems relevant.

Other Rights

The rights of each holder of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock that the Company may designate and issue in the future.

Liquidation Rights

If the Company is involved in a consolidation, merger, recapitalization, reorganization, or similar event, each holder of common stock will participate pro rata in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding.

Preferred Stock

The Company does not have any shares of preferred stock outstanding. The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to issue shares of preferred stock from time to time on terms it may determine, to divide shares of preferred stock into one or more series and to fix the designations, preferences, privileges, and restrictions of preferred stock, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preference, sinking fund terms, and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of any series to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the DGCL).

Capital Structure prior to April 4, 2014

Prior to April 4, 2014, the Company had 589,900 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share issued and outstanding, and 1,000,000 shares authorized.

Other

The Company has evaluated whether any events have occurred from December 31, 2013 through April 4, 2014, the date the financial statements were available to be issued, that require consideration as adjustments to, or disclosures in, the financial statements. Other than as described in the Preceding Paragraphs, no adjustments or disclosures are considered necessary.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Shareholder of
 
Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc.
New York, New York

We have audited the accompanying combined financial statements of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. (hereinafter the “Company”), both of which are under common ownership and common management, which comprise the combined balance sheets as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related combined statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, shareholder’s deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the combined financial statements.

Management's Responsibility for the Combined Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these combined financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of combined financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the combined financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the combined financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis-of-Matter

As discussed in Note 10 to the combined financial statements, on June 30, 2013 the Company sold its business to Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. for total consideration of $1.5 million.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. was founded and incorporated in 1998 under the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York. Metro Medical Management Services Inc. is authorized to issue 200 shares of common stock with no par value. On April 21, 1998, Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. issued 100 shares of common stock to Terry A. Sonterre, its founder and sole shareholder, in exchange for $1,000 in capital contribution.

MedDerm Billing Inc. is a subchapter S corporation that was incorporated in 2011 under the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York. Terry A. Sonterre is MedDerm Billing Inc.’s founder and sole member.

Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. are healthcare technology companies that provide medical billing services, including medical insurance filings and direct patient billing services. The services offered by Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. are designed to help customers increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs.

Metro Medical Management Services Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. operate through their shared office in New York City with customers throughout New York and New Jersey.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation of Combined Financial Statements — Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. are owned and managed by the same individual and are, therefore, under common control. The financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. (hereinafter “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and presented on a combined basis as both entities are under common control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to: (1) revenue recognition; (2) depreciable lives of assets; (3) allocation of payroll tax and other payroll deductions between direct and indirect expenses; and (4) income taxes and related uncertain tax positions. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition — Revenue is derived from fees generated from revenue cycle management services and generating and mailing patient statements. The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable. Fees derived from revenue cycle management services are typically determined based on a percentage of net collections on the Company’s customers’ medical insurance claims. Revenue is recognized when the Company has received notification that a claim has been accepted and the amount which the physician will collect is determined. Fees from customers’ patient statements are recognized when the related services are performed.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Direct Operating Costs — Direct operating expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to clients, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to the Company’s services. Direct operating expense does not include rent, occupancy and other indirect costs (including building maintenance and utilities), depreciation, and amortization. Costs associated with the implementation of new clients are expensed as incurred.

Concentrations of Credit Risk — Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are managed by periodic credit evaluations of customers, and the Company generally does not require collateral. No one customer accounts for a significant portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable portfolio and write-offs have been minimal. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had one customer that represented approximately 4.19% and 4.18% of total sales, respectively. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, accounts receivable from this customer was $5,390 and $4,478, respectively.

Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days unless specifically negotiated in the customer’s contract. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible or establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on factors such as creditworthiness and probability of collection.

Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization for computers and computer software are calculated over three years, while remaining assets are depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the term of the lease term or the economic life of the assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset might not be recoverable. An impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, is triggered if the carrying amount exceeds estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates, which would result in additional impairment losses or losses on disposal of the assets. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Deferred Rent — Deferred rent consists of rent escalation payment terms related to the Company’s operating leases for its facility in New York City. Rent escalation represents the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense, which is recorded by the Company over the term of the lease, including any construction period. The excess is recorded as a deferred credit in the early periods of the lease when cash payments are generally lower than straight-line rent expense, and is reduced in the later periods of the lease when payments begin to exceed the straight-line expense amount.

Customer Advances — Customer advances primarily consist of payments received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria being met.

Income Taxes — MedDerm Billing Inc. is not subject to federal and state income taxes, since all income, gains and losses are passed through to its owner and founder, which are included in his tax returns. MedDerm Billing Inc. is, however, subject to New York City unincorporated business tax. Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. is subject to federal and state income taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future consequences of events that have been included in the combined financial statements. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount

in the combined financial statements using tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will be recognized for income tax reporting purposes. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets will more likely than not be realized. All available positive and negative evidence are considered in making such a determination, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets would be recorded in the event it is determined that the Company would not be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount.

The Company records uncertain tax position on the basis of a two-step process whereby (i) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company recognizes interests and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the combined statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Accounting Standards Codification ASC 825, Financial Instruments, (ASC 825), requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Company follows a fair value measurement hierarchy to measure financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 —  Inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 —  Inputs are directly or indirectly observable, which include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 —  Inputs are unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value to the extent observable inputs are not available.

The Company does not have any financial instruments that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company has certain financial instruments that are not measured on a recurring basis, which are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.

These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, other accrued expenses, and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable and other accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the current maturity of these items.

At December 31, 2012, the Company had a note payable of $28,404 to its founder and shareholder and due to related parties of $28,000 related to advances received from an affiliate of the Company’s founder. The fair value of the note payable to shareholder and due to related party on the Company’s combined balance sheet cannot be determined based upon the related party nature of these transactions.

The fair value of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under its term loan with a financial institution approximates the carrying value of $5,848 and $27,720 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as these borrowings bear interest based on prevailing variable market rates currently available; the Company categorizes this borrowing as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings — The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of business and have not been fully adjudicated.

9. INCOME TAXES  – (continued)

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

       
  2012   2011
Federal tax (benefit) expense   $ (91,736 )      34.0 %    $ 22,703       34.0 % 
Increase (decrease) in income taxes resulting from:
                                   
State tax (benefit) expense, net of federal benefit     1,879       -0.70 %      9,860       14.77 % 
Effect of flow-through entity     72,718       -26.95 %            0.00 % 
Other     2,428       -0.90 %      (262 )      -0.39 % 
Total (benefit) provision   $ (14,711 )      5.45 %    $ 32,301       48.38 % 

In assessing the realizability of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The Company has income tax NOL carryforwards related to U.S. and state & local operations of $44,750 and $19,244, respectively, which expire in 2032. The Company has recorded a deferred tax asset related to the U.S. and state & local NOL carryforwards of $15,216 and $2,954, respectively, at December 31, 2012.

The Company’s effective income tax rates for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 of 5.45% and 48.38%, respectively, differ from the federal statutory rate of 34.0% primarily due to nondeductible expenses, effect of flow through entity, and state and local income taxes.

The following is a tabular reconciliation of the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits:

   
  2012   2011
Unrecognized tax benefit – January 1   $ 48,482     $  
Gross increases – tax positions in current period           48,482  
Unrecognized tax benefit – December 31   $ 48,482     $ 48,482  

As of both December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded a liability of $41,883, included in other long-term liabilities on the combined balance sheet, related to unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate.

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense. Related to the unrecognized tax benefits noted above, the Company has not accrued penalties and interest during 2012 and 2011.

The Company does not anticipate any significant increases or decreases to its unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

The income tax returns of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. are subject to examination by federal, state, and local tax regulators. Starting with the tax year ended December 31, 2009, all tax years are open to examination. As of December 31, 2012, there were no ongoing federal or state audits.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. was founded and incorporated in 1998 under the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York. MedDerm Billing Inc. is a subchapter S corporation that was incorporated in 2011 under the Business Corporation Law of the State of New York.

The services offered by Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. are designed to help customers increase revenues, streamline workflows and make better business and clinical decisions, while reducing administrative burdens and operating costs.

Metro Medical Management Services Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. operate through their shared office in New York City with customers throughout New York and New Jersey.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation of Combined Financial Statements — Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. are owned and managed by the same individual and are, therefore, under common control. The financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. and MedDerm Billing Inc. (hereinafter “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and presented on a combined basis as both entities are under common control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of combined financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but are not limited to: (1) revenue recognition; (2) depreciable lives of assets; (3) allocation of direct and indirect expenses; and (4) income taxes and related uncertain tax positions. Actual results could significantly differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition — Revenue is derived from fees generated from revenue cycle management services and generating and mailing patient statements. The Company recognizes revenue when there is evidence of an arrangement, the service has been provided to the customer, the collection of the fees is reasonably assured, and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer are fixed or determinable. Fees derived from revenue cycle management services are typically determined based on a percentage of net collections on the Company’s customers’ medical insurance claims. Revenue is recognized when the Company has received notification that a claim has been accepted and the amount which the physician will collect is determined. Fees from customers’ patient statements are recognized when the related services are performed.

The accompanying unaudited condensed combined financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete combined financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed combined financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of items of a normal and recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2013 and the results of operations and comprehensive loss, statements of shareholder’s deficit and cash flows for the three months

ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 was derived from our audited combined financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed combined financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited combined financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Direct Operating Costs — Direct operating expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to clients, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to the Company’s services. Direct operating expense does not include allocated amounts for rent, occupancy and other indirect costs (including building maintenance and utilities), depreciation, and amortization. Costs associated with the implementation of new clients are expensed as incurred.

Concentrations of Credit Risk — Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are managed by periodic credit evaluations of customers, and the Company generally does not require collateral. No one customer accounts for a significant portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable portfolio and write-offs have been minimal. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had one customer that represented approximately 4.75% and 6.26% of total sales, respectively.

Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days unless specifically negotiated in the customer’s contract. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible or establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on factors such as creditworthiness and probability of collection.

Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the assets ranging from three to five years. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization for computers and computer software are calculated over three years, while remaining assets are depreciated over five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the term of the lease term or the economic life of the assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset might not be recoverable. An impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, is triggered if the carrying amount exceeds estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates, which would result in additional impairment losses or losses on disposal of the assets. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Deferred Rent — Deferred rent consists of rent escalation payment terms related to the Company’s operating leases for its facility in New York City. Rent escalation represents the difference between actual operating lease payments due and straight-line rent expense, which is recorded by the Company over the term of the lease, including any construction period. The excess is recorded as a deferred credit in the early periods of the lease when cash payments are generally lower than straight-line rent expense, and is reduced in the later periods of the lease when payments begin to exceed the straight-line expense amount.

Customer Advances — Customer advances primarily consists of payments received in advance of the revenue recognition criteria being met.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Income Taxes — MedDerm Billing Inc. is not subject to federal and state income taxes, since all income, gains and losses are passed through to its owner and founder, which are included in his tax returns. MedDerm Billing Inc. is, however, subject to New York City unincorporated business tax. Metro Medical Management Services, Inc. is subject to federal and state income taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future consequences of events that have been included in the combined financial statements. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the combined financial statements using tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will be recognized for income tax reporting purposes. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent that these assets will more likely than not be realized. All available positive and negative evidence are considered in making such a determination, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. A valuation allowance against deferred tax assets would be recorded in the event it is determined that the Company would not be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount.

The Company records uncertain tax position on the basis of a two-step process whereby (i) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority. The Company recognizes interests and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in the provision for income taxes on the condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Accounting Standards Codification 825, Financial Instruments (ASC 825), requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The Company follows a fair value measurement hierarchy to measure financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments is measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 —  Inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 —  Inputs are directly or indirectly observable, which include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 —  Inputs are unobservable inputs that are used to measure fair value to the extent observable inputs are not available.

The Company does not have any financial instruments that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Company has certain financial instruments that are not measured on a recurring basis, which are subject to fair value adjustments only in certain circumstances.

These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, other accrued expenses, due to related parties, and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, other accrued expenses, and due from related parties approximate fair value because of the current maturity of these items.

The fair value of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under its term loan with a financial institution approximates the carrying value of $5,848 at December 31, 2012, as the borrowing bears interest based on prevailing variable market rates currently available; the Company categorizes this borrowing as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had an outstanding note payable of $26,522 and $28,404, respectively, to its founder and shareholder and due to related parties of $48,000 and $28,000 related to advances received from an affiliate of the Company’s founder. The fair value of the note payable to shareholder and due to related party on the Company’s condensed combined balance sheet cannot be determined based upon the related party nature of these transactions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements — From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on the Company’s combined financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Organization

Omni Medical Billing Services, LLC, (the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiaries provide medical billing services for health care providers.

During 2012, the Company's subsidiaries were originally owned by Customer Focus, LLC, a commonly controlled entity, and then restructured on March 4, 2012 into a Delaware limited liability company. The Company's subsidiaries are located in Maine, New York, Georgia, and California.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Laboratory Billing Service Providers, LLC, (LBSP) a Maine limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Medical Data Resources Providers, LLC, (MDRP) a New York limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Medical Billing Resources Providers, LLC, (MBRP) a Georgia limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and Primary Billing Services Providers, Inc., (PBSP) a California S corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company has no intercompany accounts requiring elimination in consolidation. The Company operates exclusively through its wholly owned subsidiaries.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

The Company sells its services to customers on an open credit basis. Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days unless specifically negotiated in the customers contract. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible or establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. This estimate is based on reviews of all balances in excess of 90 days from the invoice date.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs consist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to clients, claims processing costs, and other direct costs related to the Company’s services. Costs associated with the implementation of new clients are expensed as incurred. The reported amounts of direct operating expenses do not include allocated amounts for rent and overhead costs, which have been included within selling, general and administrative costs, and depreciation and amortization, which are broken out separately in the consolidated statements of operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. It is the Company's policy to capitalize property and equipment over $5,000. Lesser amounts are expensed. Property and equipment is capitalized at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ten years for furniture and three years for computer equipment. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of furniture and equipment are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported in the consolidated statements of operations and members’ equity.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company will recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company and are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell. There was no impairment of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for business combinations under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 805-10, Business Combinations (ASC 805-10), which requires that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including non-controlling interests, are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. ASC 805-10 also specifies criteria that intangible assets acquired in a business combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from the business combinations and are expensed as incurred.

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue as its services are rendered. The Company generally renders billings to its client healthcare providers upon collection of the related client accounts receivable. The Company has arrangements with certain clients to bill per procedure as claims are submitted for reimbursement from patients or third-party payers. For collection-based contracts, revenue is recognized based on the collections from billings rendered for physician clients. The collections are then multiplied by the percentage fee that the Company charges for its services to compute the appropriate revenue. For per-procedure contracts, revenue is recognized upon submission of clients' claims.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company did not recognize any impairment to intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $5,950 and $7,857, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company is a limited liability company. Accordingly, under the Internal Revenue Code, all taxable income or loss flows through to its members. Therefore, no income tax expense or liability is recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Per FASB ASC 740-10, disclosure is not required of an uncertain tax position unless it is considered probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a more-likely-than-not possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable. Using this guidance, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Independent Auditor's Report

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Practicare Medical Management, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Practicare Medical Management, Inc. (a New York Corporation), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations and retained earnings, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Practicare Medical Management, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company is in default on certain covenants of its loan agreements at December 31, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company has suffered the loss of significant customers. These conditions 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. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

Notes to the Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Organization

Practicare Medical Management, Inc. (“Company”) is a New York corporation engaged in the business of providing medical billing and practice management services to physicians and physician groups. The Company operates in various locations throughout New York State. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ultimate Medical Management, Inc.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

The Company sells its products to customers on an open credit basis. Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days unless specifically negotiated in the customers contract. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible or establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. This estimate is based on reviews of all balances in excess of 90 days from the invoice date.

Fixed Assets

The cost of fixed assets is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the assets: three years for software, three to five years for computer and office equipment, five years for vehicles, seven years for furniture and fixtures and the remaining lease life for leasehold improvements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the current maturity of these items.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset might not be recoverable. An impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, is triggered if the carrying amount exceeds estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates, which would result in additional impairment losses or losses on disposal of the assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue as its services are rendered. The Company generally renders billings to its client healthcare providers upon collection of the related client accounts receivable. The Company has arrangements with certain clients to bill per procedure as claims are submitted for reimbursement from patients or third-party payers. For collection-based contracts, revenue is recognized based on the collections from billings rendered for physician clients. The collections are then multiplied by the percentage fee that the Company charges for its services to compute the appropriate revenue. For per-procedure contracts, revenue is recognized upon submission of clients' claims.

Notes to the Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $3,124 and $12,415, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected with Federal and New York State taxing authorities to be treated as an S corporation. As such, all taxable income or loss of the Company is reportable on the individual income tax returns of the Company's stockholders.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Per FASB ASC 740-10, disclosure is not required of an uncertain tax position unless it is considered probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a more-likely-than-not possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable. Using this guidance, as of December 31, 2013, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Company's 2013, 2012 and 2011 Federal and State tax returns remain subject to examination by their respective taxing authorities. Neither of the Company's Federal or State tax returns are currently under examination.

Subsequent Events Evaluation Date

The Company evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to its December 31, 2013 and 2012 balance sheet date and, in accordance with FASB ASC 855-10-50, “Subsequent Events,” determined there were no significant events to report through March 25, 2014, which is the date the financial statements were issued.

NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, for the year ending December 31, 2013 the Company has suffered the loss of significant customers and was unable to meet the debt covenants required by the bank pertaining to the Company’s line of credit. This and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to substantially reduce costs and obtain a purchaser to acquire its current contracts.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 — CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK

At times throughout the year, the Company may maintain certain bank accounts in excess of FDIC insured limits of $250,000.

For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company had two and three customers that represented approximately 25% and 42% of sales, respectively. Accounts receivable from these customers totaled $123,952 and $430,113 as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

Notes to the Combined Financial Statements

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Organization

Tekhealth Services, Inc., Professional Accounts Management, Inc., and Practice Development Strategies, Inc. (“Company”) are California based corporations owned by CastleRock Solutions, Inc., a holding company (“Parent Company”). The Company is engaged in the business of providing medical billing and practice management services to physicians and physician groups. The Company operates in various locations throughout California.

Principles of Consolidation

The combined financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and jointly-owned subsidiaries over which it exercises control. Non-controlling interest amounts relating to the Company's less-than-wholly-owned combined subsidiary are included within the “Non-controlling interest in the combined subsidiary” captions in its Combined Balance Sheets and within the “Non-controlling interests” caption in its Combined Statements of Operations. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

The Company sells its services to customers on an open credit basis. Accounts receivable are uncollateralized, non-interest-bearing customer obligations. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days unless specifically negotiated in the customers contract. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible or establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information. This estimate is based on reviews of all balances in excess of 90 days from the invoice date.

Fixed Assets

The cost of fixed assets is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the assets: three years for software, three to five years for computer and office equipment, five years for vehicles, seven years for furniture and fixtures and the remaining lease life for leasehold improvements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the current maturity of these items.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable, we compare the carrying amount of the

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  – (continued)

asset group to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group and their ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the Company's investment in the net assets of acquired companies over the fair value of the underlying identifiable net assets at the dates of acquisition. The Company attributes all goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Physician Development Strategies, Inc. and Professional Accounts Management, Inc., which share similar economic characteristics, to one reporting unit. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year by comparing the fair value of the reporting units to the carrying amounts, including goodwill. No goodwill impairments were recognized during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company did not recognize any impairment to intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Revenue and Unbilled Services

The Company recognizes revenue as its services are rendered. The Company generally renders billings to its client healthcare providers upon collection of the related client accounts receivable. The Company has arrangements with certain clients to bill per procedure as claims are submitted for reimbursement from patients or third-party payers. For collection-based contracts, revenue is recognized based on the collections from billings rendered for physician clients. The collections are then multiplied by the percentage fee that the Company charges for its services to compute the appropriate revenue. For per-procedure contracts, revenue is recognized upon submission of clients' claims. The Company also serves certain customers as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”). ASP services are generally provided for a monthly fee or per-transaction fee, and revenue for such services is recognized as the services are provided.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $689 and $475, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities arise from differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its reported amount in the combined financial statements. Deferred tax balances are determined by using tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes will actually be paid. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the likelihood of realization, management considered estimates of future taxable income.

The Company files income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Per FASB ASC 740-10, disclosure is not required of an uncertain tax position unless it is considered probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a more-likely-than-not possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable. Using this guidance, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

On completion of this offering, the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will contain provisions that eliminate, to the maximum extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the personal liability of the Registrant’s directors and executive officers for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors or officers. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws will provide that the Registrant must indemnify its directors and executive officers and may indemnify its employees and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Sections 145 and 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provide that a corporation may indemnify any person made a party to an action by reason of the fact that he or she was a director, executive officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of a corporation against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of an action by or in right of the corporation, no indemnification may generally be made in respect of any claim as to which such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.

The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in its amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, and intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and executive officers in the future.

The Registrant has purchased and intends to maintain insurance on behalf of each and any person who is or was a director or officer of the Registrant against any loss arising from any claim asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, subject to certain exclusions.

The Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1 hereto) provides for indemnification by the underwriters of the Registrant and its executive officers and directors, and by the Registrant of the underwriters, for certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

We have not issued any securities since January 1, 2010 except as set forth below.

In September 2013 we issued $500,000 of convertible debt in a private offering to a single accredited investor in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Amounts outstanding under this note will convert into common stock at a 10% discount to the offering price upon the closing of this offering.

In addition, pursuant to the asset purchase agreements filed as Exhibits 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 hereto, and substantially concurrently with the consummation of this offering, we have agreed to issue to the Target Sellers [    ] shares of our common stock in transactions exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

(a) Exhibits: The list of exhibits is set forth beginning on page II-4 of this registration statement and is incorporated herein by reference.

(b) Financial Statements Schedules: None.

Item 17. Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(c) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
