3. ACQUISITIONS

 

2018 Acquisition

 

On May 7, 2018, the Company executed an asset purchase agreement (“APA”) to acquire substantially all of the revenue cycle, practice management, and group purchasing organization assets of Orion. The purchase price was $12.6 million, excluding acquisition-related costs of approximately $245,000, which are included in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Per the APA, the acquisition had an effective date of July 1, 2018. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. The Company is in the process of integrating the acquired businesses and determining how the results of the business will be analyzed and reviewed. When the purchase price allocation is finalized and the integration of the businesses has been completed, the Company will determine whether there are additional operating segments.

 

The Orion acquisition added a significant number of clients to the Company’s customer base and, similar to previous acquisitions, broadened the Company’s presence in the healthcare information technology industry through geographic expansion of its customer base and by increasing available customer relationship resources and specialized trained staff. The acquisition also included Orion’s practice management and group purchasing services. The practice management services provide three pediatric medical practices with the nurses, administrative support, facilities, supplies, equipment, marketing, RCM, accounting and other non-clinical services needed to efficiently operate the practices. The group purchasing services enable medical providers to purchase various vaccines directly from selected pharmaceutical companies at a discounted price.

 

The Company engaged a third party valuation specialist to assist the Company in valuing the assets acquired from Orion. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation by year-end and is finalizing the projections and the valuation of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities.

 

Acquired intangibles   $ 6,100,000  
Accounts receivable     5,727,618  
Contract asset     673,317  
Inventory     307,278  
Property and equipment     319,352  
Goodwill     417,112  
Accounts payable     (499,807 )
Accrued expenses     (444,870 )
    $ 12,600,000  

  

The acquired accounts receivable are recorded at fair value which represents amounts that have subsequently been paid or are expected to be paid. The inventory acquired represents vaccines held at the managed practices. The fair value of acquired intangibles, which is expected to consist primarily of customer relationships, was based on the estimated discounted cash flows generated by these intangibles. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible ratably for income tax purposes over fifteen years and represents the Company’s ability to have a local presence in additional markets, operational synergies that we expect to achieve that would not be available to other market participants and the ability to offer group purchasing and practice management services.

 

The amortization period of the acquired intangibles is expected to be between four and twelve years.

 

Revenue earned beginning July 1, 2018 from the clients obtained from the Orion acquisition was approximately $9.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

 

2017 Acquisition

 

Effective July 1, 2017, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Washington Medical Billing, LLC (“WMB”), a Washington limited liability company. In accordance with the asset purchase agreement, the Company agreed to a non-refundable initial payment (the “Initial Payment Amount”) of $205,000. In addition to the Initial Payment Amount, the Company agreed to pay the sellers a percentage of revenue collected from the WMB accounts for the three years subsequent to the acquisition date to the extent such amounts in the aggregate exceed the Initial Payment Amount (the “WMB Installment Payments”). Based on the Company’s revenue forecast, it does not appear that there will be any WMB Installment Payments and therefore the aggregate purchase price of WMB was determined to be $205,000.

 

Revenue earned from the WMB acquisition was approximately $36,000 and $149,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.
