ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.
(b) Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting.
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to its management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this assessment management believes that, as of December 31, 2020, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
In June 2020, the Company acquired Gamma Knife Center Ecuador S.A. (“GKCE”). Management excluded GKCE from its report on internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. GKCE's financial statements constitute 3.8% and 3.6% of the Company’s consolidated total assets (excluding $1,343,000 of goodwill and intangible assets and $19,000 of land, which were integrated into the Company’s control environment), and revenues, respectively. The Company will include GKCE in its assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting in fiscal year 2021 annual management report, the annual management report following the first anniversary of the acquisition.

(c) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2020, as required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, and have concluded that there were no such changes that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
American Shared Hospital Services, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American Shared Hospital Services, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Retail Revenue Recognition – Estimates of Reimbursement Rates and Payor Mix
As discussed in Note 2 in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, retail revenue amounted to approximately $11,418,000, which was approximately 64% of total consolidated revenue, during the year ended December 31, 2020. The related accounts receivable balance for total retail sites accounted for 68% of total accounts receivable at December 31, 2020. The Company has retail customer revenue classified as either turn-key or revenue sharing that are recognized under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 Leases (“ASC 842”). Under revenue sharing arrangements, the Company receives a contracted percentage of the reimbursement received by the hospital. Under turn-key arrangements, the Company receives payment from the hospital based on the amount of the hospital’s reimbursement from third party payors.
We identified management’s estimates of reimbursement rates and payor mix to record retail revenue and related accounts receivable, as a critical audit matter. Retail revenue and related accounts receivable involves significant judgment and estimation, including measurement uncertainty, by management based on the estimates and assumptions used and are subject to adjustments based on actual reimbursements received by the Company. In turn, auditing management’s judgments and estimates related to retail revenue and related accounts receivable involved a high degree of subjectivity, as they are based on estimates of reimbursement rates and payor mix.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
a. Obtaining management’s reconciliation of retail revenue and accounts receivable by site agreeing to supporting documentation related to the estimated reimbursement rates and payor mix used in the calculation.

a. Obtaining third party confirmations, confirming number of procedures, payment dates and amounts paid, and reconciling confirmed amounts to management’s reconciliation, in order to validate approximate rate per procedure.
a. Testing subsequent cash receipts and evaluating the reasonableness of the estimates through a look-back analysis over retail revenue as compared to accounts receivable balances previously recognized.
a. Developing an independent expectation of reimbursement rates per procedure based on historical trends, procedures, and payment amounts received through confirmation directly with the hospital, and comparing to management’s estimates.
Property and Equipment - Salvage Value on Equipment
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for Gamma Knife, and other equipment is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which for medical and office equipment is generally 3 – 10 years, and after accounting for salvage value on the equipment where indicated. Salvage value is based on the estimated fair value of the equipment at the end of its useful life.
We identified management’s estimates of salvage value including qualitative assessments of certain equipment as a critical audit matter. Determination of salvage values involves significant judgment and estimation, involving measurement uncertainty, as there is no active resale market for the Gamma Knife units due to limited sellers and buyers and trade-ins for the equipment are not guaranteed. Trade-ins are highly dependent on future demand, values and the Company’s relationship with supplier, a related party of the Company. In turn, auditing management’s judgments and estimates related to salvage value of certain equipment, involved a high degree of subjectivity.
The primary procedure we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
a. Evaluating management’s determination of salvage values by comparing determined salvages values with historical trade-in transactions and publicly available transaction information, which included reviewing relevant purchase agreements, supplier agreements and evaluating publicly available transaction information.
Valuation of Certain Tangible and Intangible Assets Acquired Through Business Combination
As described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the acquisition of Gamma Knife Center Ecuador S.A. (“GKCE”) from GKCE’s selling majority shareholders in June 2020. The Company subsequently executed agreements to acquire 1.3% of the total outstanding shares in July 2020 and intends to acquire the remaining 0.7% at later date. The total purchase consideration for 100% of the outstanding shares of GKCE was approximately $2,869,000, including a base purchase price of $2,000,000, subject to certain price adjustments for current assets and liabilities and tax withholding. The transaction was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method, whereby the total consideration transferred, identifiable assets acquired, and liabilities assumed are based on the respective acquisition-date fair values.
As part of the acquisition, the Company acquired tangible assets, including building, equipment and other property and equipment with a fair value of approximately $723,000 and intangible assets, consisting of the acquired entity’s trade name, with a fair value of approximately $78,000. We identified the judgment and estimation of the methodologies and assumptions used in the valuation by management, in the determination of the fair value of these assets, as a critical audit matter. Significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these tangible and intangible assets included discount rates, useful lives, expected future cash flows, internal rate of return, revenue forecast and growth rates. Given these factors, the related audit effort in evaluating management’s estimates required a high degree of auditor judgment.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
a. Evaluating the appropriateness of the methodologies and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of certain tangible (real property and equipment) and intangible (trade name) assets, including involving valuation specialists, where specialized skill or knowledge was needed, to assist with our evaluation. Our valuation specialist assisted primarily in the evaluation of the qualification of the appraiser and valuation specialist used by management, consideration of methodologies used in the appraisal of real property, including review of market information utilized to determine fair value, and in relation to the valuation of trade name, review of the methodology, discount rate, royalty rate, useful life (indefinite), and internal rate of return.

a. Evaluating assumptions and inputs used in projected financial information of the acquired entity, which primarily related to revenue growth rates, including testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data supporting the significant assumptions and estimates. Specifically, when evaluating the assumptions related to the revenue growth rates and changes in the business that would drive these forecasted growth rates, we compared the assumptions to industry trends and subsequent interim period results to evaluate management’s estimates as of the date of the transaction.

N OTE 1 – B USINESS AND B ASIS OF P RESENTATION
Business – These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Shared Hospital Services and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as follows: the Company wholly-owns the subsidiaries American Shared Radiosurgery Services (“ASRS”), PBRT Orlando, LLC (“Orlando”), OR21, Inc., and MedLeader.com, Inc. (“MedLeader”); the Company is the majority owner of Long Beach Equipment, LLC (“LBE”); ASRS is the majority-owner of GK Financing, LLC (“GKF”) which wholly-owns the subsidiary Instituto de Gamma Knife del Pacifico S.A.C. (“GKPeru”). GKF is the majority owner of the subsidiaries Albuquerque GK Equipment, LLC (“AGKE”) and Jacksonville GK Equipment, LLC (“JGKE”). GKF formed HoldCo GKC S.A. (“HoldCo”) to acquire Gamma Knife Center Ecuador S.A. (“GKCE”).
The Company (through ASRS) and Elekta AG (“Elekta”), the manufacturer of the Gamma Knife (through its wholly-owned United States subsidiary, GKV Investments, Inc.), entered into an operating agreement and formed GKF. During 2020 GKF provided Gamma Knife units to fifteen medical centers in the United States in the states of Arkansas, California, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, and Texas. GKF also owns and operates single-unit Gamma Knife facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador. The Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orlando, provided proton beam radiation therapy (“PBRT”) and related equipment to a customer in the United States.
The Company formed the subsidiary GKPeru and acquired GKCE for the purposes of expanding its business internationally; Orlando and LBE to provide PBRT equipment and services in Orlando, Florida and Long Beach, California, respectively; and AGKE and JGKE to provide Gamma Knife equipment and services in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Jacksonville, Florida, respectively. AGKE began operations in the second quarter of 2011 and JGKE began operations in the fourth quarter of 2011. Orlando treated its first patient in April 2016. GKPeru treated its first patient in July 2017. LBE is not expected to generate revenue within the next two years.
On June 12, 2020, GKF, through HoldCo, purchased approximately 98 % of the total outstanding shares of GKCE, from GKCE’s majority shareholders (the “Acquisition”). As of December 31, 2020, the Company had acquired approximately 99.3 % of the total outstanding shares of GKCE and intends to acquire the remaining 0.7 % at a later date. The base purchase price for the Acquisition, including acquisition of the minority shares was approximately $ 2,000,000 . This purchase price was paid with $ 575,000 in cash and a $ 1,425,000 loan from the United States International Development Finance Corporation (“DFC”). The purchase price is subject to certain post-closing adjustments, including adjustment for GKCE's working capital and excess cash. The DFC loan is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is also the currency of Ecuador. See “Note 4. GKCE Acquisition” for further discussion.
The Company continues to develop its design and business model for The Operating Room for the 21st Century SM through its 50 % owned OR21, LLC (“OR21”). The remaining 50 % of OR21 is owned by an architectural design company. OR21 is not expected to generate significant revenue within the next two years.
MedLeader was formed to provide continuing medical education online and through videos for doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers. This subsidiary is not operational at this time.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent and duration of the future impact on the Company's business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted, and is likely to further adversely impact, nearly all aspects of the Company’s business and markets, including its employees, operations, contractors, customers, government and third party payors and others. The full extent to which the pandemic will directly or indirectly impact the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

N OTE 2 – A CCOUNTING P OLICIES
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements – In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent 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 accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include the estimated useful lives of fixed assets and its salvage values, revenues and costs of sales for turn-key and revenue sharing arrangements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Advertising costs – The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs were $ 237,000 and $ 144,000 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. Advertising costs are recorded in other direct operating costs and sales and administrative costs in the consolidated statements of operations.
Cash and cash equivalents – The Company considers all liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash is not considered a cash equivalent for purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Restricted cash – Restricted cash represents the minimum cash that must be maintained in GKF to fund operations, per the subsidiary’s operating agreement, the minimum cash that must be maintained by GKF per it’s financing agreement with DFC, and the minimum cash that must be maintained in Orlando per the subsidiary’s financing agreement.
Business and credit risk – The Company maintains its cash balances, which exceed federally insured limits, in financial institutions. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash, cash equivalents. The Company monitors the financial condition of the financial institutions it uses on a regular basis.
All of the Company’s revenue was provided by eighteen and seventeen customers in 2020 and 2019. One customer accounted for approximately 35 % and 30 % of the Company’s total revenue in 2020 and 2019. At December 31, 2020, four customers each individually accounted for 11 %, 11 %, 11 % and 20 % of total accounts receivable, respectively. At December 31, 2019, three customers each individually accounted for 12 %, 15 % and 30 % of total accounts receivable, respectively. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company has not experienced significant losses related to receivables from individual customers or groups of customers in any particular geographic area.
All of the Company’s radiosurgery devices have been purchased through Elekta, to date. However, there are other manufacturers that also make radiosurgery devices.
Accounts receivable and doubtful accounts – Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on historical collections plus an allowance for probable losses. Receivables are considered past due based on contractual terms and are charged off in the period that they are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously charged off are offset against bad debt expense when received.
Non-controlling interests - The Company reports its non-controlling interests as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The Company also presents the consolidated net income and the portion of the consolidated net income allocable to the non-controlling interests and to the shareholders of the Company separately in its consolidated statements of operations.
Property and equipment – Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation for Gamma Knife, IGRT, and other equipment is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which for medical and office equipment is generally 3 – 10 years, and after accounting for salvage value on the equipment where indicated. Salvage value is based on the estimated fair value of the equipment at the end of its useful life. The Company acquired a building as part of the Acquisition in June 2020. Depreciation for buildings is determined using the straight-line method over 20 years.

N OTE 2 – A CCOUNTING P OLICIES (CONTINUED)
Depreciation for PBRT and related equipment is determined using the modified units of production method, which is a function of both time and usage of the equipment. This depreciation method allocates costs considering the projected volume of usage through the useful life of the PBRT unit, which has been estimated at 20 years. The estimated useful life of the PBRT unit is consistent with the estimated economic life of 20 years.
The Company capitalizes interest incurred on property and equipment that is under construction, for which deposits or progress payments have been made. When a rate is not readily available, imputed interest is calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The interest capitalized for property and equipment is the portion of interest cost incurred during the acquisition periods that could have been avoided if expenditures for the equipment had not been made. The Company capitalized interest of $ 119,000 and $ 110,000 in 2020 and 2019, respectively, as costs of medical equipment.
The Company leases Gamma Knife and radiation therapy equipment to its customers under arrangements accounted for as operating leases. At December 31, 2020, the Company held equipment under operating lease contracts with customers with an original cost of $ 75,241,000 and accumulated depreciation of $ 45,416,000 . At December 31, 2019, the Company held equipment under operating lease contracts with customers with an original cost of $ 92,135,000 and accumulated depreciation of $ 55,148,000 .
As of December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a loss on the write down of impaired assets of $ 8,264,000 . The impaired assets included six ( 6 ) Gamma Knife units and the Company's deposits towards purchase of proton beam systems and related capitalized interest. See further discussion under Note 2 - Long-lived asset impairment and Note 3 - Property and Equipment for further discussion.
Fair value of financial instruments – The Company’s disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments is based on a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The estimated fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows (in thousands):

Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenues under ASC 842 Leases (“ASC 842”) and ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
Rental income from medical services – The Company recognizes revenues under ASC 842 when services have been rendered and collectability is reasonably assured, on either a fee per use or revenue sharing basis. The terms of the contracts do not contain any guaranteed minimum payments. The Company’s contracts are typically for a 10 -year term and are classified as either fee per use or retail. Retail arrangements are further classified as either turn-key or revenue sharing. Revenues from fee per use contracts is determined by each hospital’s contracted rate. Revenues are recognized at the time the procedures are performed, based on each hospital’s contracted rate and the number of procedures performed. Under revenue sharing arrangements, the Company receives a contracted percentage of the reimbursement received by the hospital. The amount the Company expects to receive is recorded as revenue and estimated based on historical experience. Revenue estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted as necessary. Under turn-key arrangements, the Company receives payment from the hospital in the amount of the hospital’s reimbursement from third party payors, and the Company is responsible for paying all the operating costs of the equipment. Operating costs are determined primarily based on historical treatment protocols and cost schedules with the hospital. The Company records an estimate of operating costs which are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted as necessary to more accurately reflect the actual operating costs. For turn-key sites, the Company also shares a percentage of net operating profit. The Company records an estimate of net operating profit based on estimated revenues, less estimated operating costs. The operating costs and estimated net operating profit are recorded as other direct operating costs in the consolidated statement of operations . As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized revenues of approximately $ 16,204,000 and $ 19,396,000 under ASC 842, respectively.
Patient income – The Company has stand-alone facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador, where a contract exists between the Company’s facilities and the individual patient treated at the facility. Under ASC 606, the Company acts as the principal in this transaction and provides, at a point in time, a single performance obligation, in the form of a Gamma Knife treatment. Revenue related to a Gamma Knife treatment is recognized on a gross basis at the time when the patient receives treatment. There is no variable consideration present in the Company’s performance obligation and the transaction price is agreed upon per the stated contractual rate. GKPeru's payment terms are typically prepaid for self-pay patients and insurance provider payments are paid net 30 days. GKCE's patient population is primarily covered by a government payor and payments are paid approximately 30 to 60 days upon invoice. The Company did not capitalize any incremental costs related to the fulfillment of its customer contracts. Accounts receivable earned by GKPeru were not significant for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. GKCE's accounts receivable were $ 467,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized revenues of approximately $ 1,633,000 and $ 1,209,000 under ASC 606, respectively.
Stock-based compensation – The Company measures all stock-based compensation awards at fair value and records such expense in its consolidated financial statements over the requisite service period of the related award. See Note 9 for additional information on the Company’s stock-based compensation programs.
Costs of revenue – The Company's costs of revenue consist primarily of maintenance and supplies, depreciation and amortization, and other operating expenses (such as insurance, property taxes, sales taxes, marketing costs and operating costs from the Company’s retail sites). Costs of revenues are recognized as incurred.
Sales and Marketing – The Company markets its services through its preferred provider status with Elekta and a direct sales effort led by its Senior Vice President of Sales and Business Development, its President and Chief Financial and Operating Officer and its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).
The Company typically provides the equipment, as well as planning, installation, reimbursement and marketing support services.
Income taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

N OTE 2 – A CCOUNTING P OLICIES (CONTINUED)
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes as required by the provisions of ASC 740 Income taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50 % likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as this requires the Company to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company’s tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.
See Note 8 for further discussion on income taxes.
Functional currency – Based on guidance provided in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830”), the Company analyzes its operations outside the United States to determine the functional currency of each operation. Management has determined that these operations are initially accounted for in U.S. dollars since the primary transactions incurred are in U.S. dollars and the Company provides significant funding towards the startup of the operation. When Management determines that an operation has become predominantly self-sufficient, the Company will change its accounting for the operation to the local currency from the U.S. dollar. The Company analyzed it’s Gamma Knife site in Peru under ASC 830 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and concluded the functional currency was the U.S. dollar. As facts and circumstances change, the Company will revisit this conclusion.
Asset Retirement Obligations – Based on the guidance provided in ASC 410 Asset Retirement Obligations (“ASC 410”), the Company analyzed its existing lease agreements and determined an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) exists to remove the respective units at the end of the lease terms. As of December 31, 2020, four ( 4 ) of the Company's Gamma Knife customers notified the Company of their intent to terminate their contracts at the contract lease term. The Company recorded an ARO liability for these four ( 4 ) sites, using estimates from Elekta. No liability has been recorded as of December 31, 2020 for the remaining Gamma Knife sites, or as of December 31, 2019, because it is uncertain these units will be removed and the Company historically has not removed the Gamma Knife equipment at the end of the lease term. The Company will re-evaluate the need to record additional ARO liabilities on a periodic basis when facts and circumstances change that could affect this conclusion.
Earnings per share – Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. The fully vested restricted stock units not issued and outstanding, are also included therein. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if common shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants.
Because the Company reported a loss for the year ended December 31, 2020, the potentially dilutive effects of approximately 13,000 , of the Company's unvested restricted stock awards were not considered for the reporting periods.
On March 31, 2020, the Company’s Award Agreements (as defined below) expired and the unvested performance share awards were returned to the Company’s stock incentive plan - see Note 9 for further discussion. Based on the guidance provided in accordance with ASC 260, the weighted average common shares for basic earnings per share, for the year ended December 31, 2019 excluded the weighted average impact of the unvested performance share awards. These awards were legally outstanding but not deemed participating securities and therefore were excluded from the calculation of basic earnings per share. The unvested shares were also excluded from the denominator for diluted earnings per share because they were considered contingent shares not deemed probable as of December 31, 2019.
The following table illustrates the computations of basic and diluted earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Business segment information - Based on the guidance provided in accordance with ASC 280 Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company analyzed its subsidiaries which are all in the business of leasing radiosurgery and radiation therapy equipment to healthcare providers, and concluded there are two reportable segments, domestic and foreign. The Company provides Gamma Knife and PBRT equipment to fifteen hospitals in the United States and owns and operates two single-unit facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador as of December 31, 2020. The Company determined two reportable segments existed due to similarities in economics of business operations and geographic location. The operating results of the two reportable segments are reviewed by the Company’s CEO and President, Chief Operating and Financial Officer, who are also deemed the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODMs”). As of December 31, 2019, the Company had one reportable segment. Following the Company's acquisition of GKCE in June 2020, the Company concluded it had two reportable segments.

N OTE 2 – A CCOUNTING P OLICIES (CONTINUED)
Long lived asset impairment – The Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. Such events or changes in circumstances may include: a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used, significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or development of a long-lived asset, current or future operating or cash flow losses that demonstrate continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset, or a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life. The Company performs impairment testing at the asset group level that represents the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. The Company assesses recoverability of a long-lived asset by determining whether the carrying value of the asset group can be recovered through projected undiscounted cash flows over their remaining lives. If the carrying value of the asset group exceeds the forecasted undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized, measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds estimated fair value. An impairment loss is charged to the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which management determines such impairment. As of December 31, 2020, the Company determined circumstances existed indicating its assets could be impaired, concluded an impairment existed, and recognized a loss on the write down of impaired assets of $ 8,264,000 . No such impairment has been noted as of December 31, 2019. See Note 3 - Property and Equipment for further discussion.
Goodwill and intangible assets - The Company recorded goodwill of $ 1,265,000 and an intangible asset with a fair value of $ 78,000 as part of the Acquisition in June 2020. The intangible asset identified was GKCE's trade name and the Company assigned an indefinite useful life to the asset. Based on the guidance provided in accordance with ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), the Company does not amortize the intangible asset because it has an indefinite life. The Company assesses goodwill at the reporting unit level, which has been determined to be GKCE. Each reporting period, the Company assesses whether events or circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life for the intangible asset. Per ASC 350, the Company tests goodwill and intangibles for impairment annually or as events or circumstances change that indicate the fair value may be below the carrying amount. As of December 31, 2020, there has been no change to the Company's assessment of the value of intangible assets or goodwill.
Acquisitions - The Company records acquisitions according to ASC 805 Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, all assets acquired, including goodwill and other intangible assets, should be stated at fair value at the time of acquisition. The allocation of purchase price consideration is preliminary, pending the completion of the fair value of certain tangible, intangible assets, and residual goodwill. During the measurement period, which can be no more than one year from the Closing Date, the Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the final fair value of assets acquired. See Note 4 - GKCE Acquisition for further discussion on acquisitions.
Accounting pronouncement issued and adopted – In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-03 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2018-03”), which clarifies certain aspects of ASU 2016-1. These are: equity securities without a readily determinable fair value – discontinuation, equity securities without a readily determinable fair value – adjustments, forward contracts and purchased options, presentation requirements for certain fair value option liabilities, fair value option liabilities denominated in a foreign currency, and transition guidance for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements to Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”), which amended the effective date and other certain measurement aspects of ASU 2018-03. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2018-03 and ASU 2018-13 on January 1, 2020. There was no significant impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Accounting pronouncement issued and not yet adopted – In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”) which removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation; exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2019-12 to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.

As of December 31, 2020, approximately $ 3,195,000 of the net property and equipment balance is outside of the United States. As December 31, 2020, the Company recognized a loss on the write down of impaired assets of $ 8,264,000 . The impaired assets included six ( 6 ) Gamma Knife units and related removal costs, and two ( 2 ) deposits towards the purchase of proton beam systems and related capitalized interest. The six ( 6 ) Gamma Knife units that were impaired consisted of two ( 2 ) units that had been taken out of service in prior years, one ( 1 ) unit that was taken out of service in 2020 and three ( 3 ) units that have already been, or the Company anticipates will be, taken out of service in 2021 , totaling $ 3,051,000 . In addition to this impairment write-off of $ 3,051,000 were estimated costs of de-install and removal (ARO) of four ( 4 ) of the Gamma Knife units of $ 1,350,000 (of which, the Company has paid $ 80,000 ) as of December 31, 2020. Total impairment related to the Gamma Knife business was $ 4,401,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets for impairment on a quarterly basis, or as events or circumstances might indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company has reviewed its Gamma Knife equipment, in light of available information as of December 31, 2020 and based on current customer prospects, the probability of future contract extensions or renewals, and the high turnover rate in contract terminations compared to the Company's historical contract termination rate, the Company determined that these six ( 6 ) Gamma Knife units were more-than temporarily impaired.
Prior to December 31, 2020, the Company had $ 2,250,000 in deposits toward the purchase of two MEVION S250i PBRT systems from Mevion. The Company reviews the carrying value of its deposits for impairment on a quarterly basis, or as events or circumstances might indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company has reviewed the deposits, in light of available information, as of December 31, 2020 and based on its current customer prospects, the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on medical centers undertaking large capital expenditure projects for a limited patient base, and the length of time required to negotiate and implement a proton therapy project, the Company determined that its deposits of $ 2,250,000 , related capitalized interest and other charges of $ 1,613,000 were other-than temporarily impaired. Total impairment related to the proton therapy business was $ 3,863,000 .

N OTE 4 - GKCE ACQUISITION
On June 18, 2019, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire Gamma Knife Center Ecuador S.A. (“GKCE”) from GKCE’s selling majority shareholders. GKCE is a well-established Gamma Knife operation founded in 2009 as a private clinic to introduce advanced stereotactic radiosurgery into Ecuador and continues to operate the only Gamma Knife unit in the country. The Company acquired GKCE for the continued expansion of its business internationally.
On June 12, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company acquired approximately 98 % of the total outstanding shares of GKCE. As of December 31, 2020, the Company acquired approximately 99.3 % of the total outstanding shares of GKCE and intends to acquire the remaining 0.7 % at a later date. The fair value of the non-controlling interests (“NCI”) on the Closing Date was approximately $ 58,000 , which was consistent with the purchase price in the executed NCI agreements. The total purchase consideration for 100 % of the outstanding shares of GKCE was $ 2,883,000 , including $ 2,000,000 of base purchase price, subject to certain price adjustments for current assets and liabilities and tax withholding.
The base purchase price of $ 2,000,000 was paid with $ 575,000 of cash and a $ 1,425,000 loan from the United States International Development Finance Corporation (“DFC”). The DFC loan is denominated in U.S. dollars, which is also the currency of Ecuador. The price adjustments will be paid by the Company in the post-closing period with the adjustments related to the amount of working capital that GKCE had as of the Closing Date. The first price adjustment for working capital as of the Closing Date was approximately $ 515,000 , which was paid by the Company in August 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company owed the withholding taxes related to this payment totaling approximately $ 43,000 . The Company estimates an additional contingent consideration of approximately $ 368,000 will be remitted to the seller based on the collection of Closing Date accounts receivable balances, net of related costs, during the three-month, six-month and twelve-month periods after the Closing Date. As of December 31, 2020, $ 214,000 of the contingent considerations had been paid and $ 154,000 is estimated to be paid for the twelve-month period after the Closing Date. The Company reviewed historical patient treatments, invoice, and collection data from GKCE to determine an appropriate estimate of the contingent consideration at the Closing Date.
The acquisition has been accounted for according to ASC 805 using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, all assets acquired, including goodwill and other intangible assets, should be stated at fair value at the time of acquisition. The allocation of purchase price consideration is preliminary, pending the completion of the fair value of certain tangible, intangible assets, and residual goodwill. During the measurement period, which can be no more than one year from the Closing Date, the Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist in determining the final fair value of assets acquired. The assets acquired were recorded based on valuations derived from estimated fair value assessments and assumptions used by the Company. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value discussed below are subject to change.
As of December 31, 2020, accounting for the Closing Date accounts receivable balances, allowance on the uncollected accounts receivable balances, and related liabilities, was not complete. The accounting for these amounts will be complete following the twelve-month period after the Closing Date, per the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Company expects to finalize the valuation as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the Closing Date. While the Company believes its estimates and assumptions underlying the valuations are reasonable, different estimates and assumptions could result in different valuations assigned to the individual assets acquired, and the resulting amount of goodwill.
After the Acquisition date, the Company received additional information regarding the amounts recorded as accounts receivable as of June 12, 2020. After reviewing the information obtained, the Company booked an additional $ 27,000 of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2020. As a result, related liabilities were increased by $ 13,000 and the contingent consideration increased by $ 14,000 . There was no impact to goodwill or net loss as of December 31, 2020.

Estimated subsequent working capital payment ( 368,000 )
Base purchase consideration $ 2,000,000
The Company has allocated the purchase price of GKCE to the tangible assets, liabilities, and intangible asset acquired, based on their estimated fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price consideration over the fair value of the identifiable tangible and intangible assets assumed. The Company believes the amount of goodwill resulting from the acquisition is primarily attributable to expected synergies from an assembled and trained workforce and enhanced opportunities for growth and innovation. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition is not tax deductible.
The preliminary value of the acquired tangible assets acquired are as follows:
Fair Value Useful Life (in Years)
Building $ 385,000 20
Land 19,000
Medical equipment 302,000 2
Other fixed assets 17,000 2
Total tangible assets $ 723,000
The Company also acquired intangible assets with a fair value of $ 78,000 . The intangible asset identified was GKCE's trade name and the Company assigned an indefinite useful life to the asset.
The Company incurred costs related to the acquisition of approximately $ 93,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020 and $ 69,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020. All acquisition related costs were expensed as incurred and have been recorded in selling and administrative expense in the Company's consolidated statement of operations.

N OTE 7 - LEASES
The Company determines if a contract is a lease at inception. Under ASC 842, the Company is a lessor of equipment to various customers. Leases that commenced prior to ASC 842 adoption date were classified as operating leases under historical guidance. As the Company has elected the package of practical expedients allowing it to not reassess lease classification, these leases are classified as operating leases under ASC 842 as well. All of the Company’s lessor arrangements entered into after ASC 842 adoption are also classified as operating leases. Some of these lease terms have an option to extend the lease after the initial term, but do not contain the option to terminate early or purchase the asset at the end of the term.
The Company’s Gamma Knife and PBRT contracts with hospitals are classified as operating leases under ASC 842. The related equipment is included in medical equipment and facilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets (see further discussion at Note 2). As all income from the Company’s lessor arrangements is solely based on procedure volume, all income is considered variable payments not dependent on an index or a rate. As such, the Company does not measure future operating lease receivables.
The Company’s lessee operating leases are accounted for as right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, other current liabilities, and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The Company’s operating lease contracts do not provide an implicit rate for calculating the present value of future lease payments, so the Company determined its incremental borrowing rate to be in the range of approximately 4.0 % and 6.0 % by using available market rates and expected lease terms. The operating lease ROU assets and liabilities also include any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lessee operating lease agreements are for administrative office space and related equipment, and the agreement to lease clinic space for its stand-alone facility in Lima, Peru. These leases have remaining lease terms between 2 and 3 years, some of which include options to renew or extend the lease. As of December 31, 2020, operating ROU assets and liabilities were $ 886,000 .
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to not renew its lease for a satellite office in Fairfield, California. The Company previously included the renewal term in its assessment of the lease term for the ROU asset and liability. The Company accounted for this change as a lease reassessment under ASC 842. At the reassessment date, the remaining lease balance was not material to the Company's consolidated balance sheets and the Company wrote off the related ROU assets and liabilities of $ 67,000 . Also during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company agreed to a rent increase for its clinic space for its stand-alone facility in Lima, Peru. The rent increase was effective as of January 1, 2020 and the Company increased the related ROU assets and liabilities by $ 135,000 .

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019 the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $ 1,737,000 and income tax expense of $ 128,000 , respectively. The decrease in the Company’s provision for income taxes as of December 31, 2020 is due to a loss on the write down of impaired assets.

$ ( 1,737,000 ) $ 128,000
At December 31, 2020, the Company exhausted the remainder of its net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax return purposes. The Company has net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $ 2,219,000 that begin to expire in 2029. The Company has net operating loss carryforwards for its international subsidiaries of approximately $ 32,000 .
Utilization of the net operating loss and credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and similar state provisions. Any annual limitation may result in the expiration of net operating losses and credits before utilization.
At December 31, 2020, the Company has a capital loss carryforward for federal income tax return purposes of approximately $ 2,586,000 which starts to expire in 2021. The Company has capital loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $ 129,000 which starts to expire in 2021.
Due to uncertainty surrounding the realization of impairment losses, capital losses and foreign operating losses in future years, the Company has placed a valuation allowance against a portion of its net domestic and foreign deferred tax assets. The net valuation allowance decreased by $ 243,000 and $ 175,000 for the tax years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company released the valuation allowance related to GKPeru deferred tax assets, which resulted in an income tax benefit of $ 104,000 . The Company concluded, based upon the preponderance of positive evidence (i.e. cumulative profit before tax adjusted for permanent items over the previous twelve quarters, a history of taxable income in recent periods, and the current forecast of income before taxes for GKPeru going forward) over negative evidence and the anticipated ability to use the deferred tax assets, that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. If there are unfavorable changes to actual operating results or to projections of future income, the Company may determine that it is more likely than not such deferred tax assets may not be realizable.
The tax return years 2016 through 2019 remain open to examination by the major domestic taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. In 2019, the Company settled a New York State examination for tax years 2015 through 2017 with no material adjustments. Net operating losses generated on a tax return basis by the Company for calendar years 1999 through 2004, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 remain open to examination by the major domestic taxing jurisdictions.

The Company has adopted accounting standards which prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a company's income tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Additionally, these accounting standards specify that tax positions for which the timing of the ultimate resolution is uncertain should be recognized as long-term liabilities. The Company has made no reclassifications between current taxes payable and long term taxes payable under this guidance.
As of December 31, 2020, the unrecognized tax benefit was $ 275,000 which, if recognized, will not affect the annual effective tax rate as these unrecognized tax benefits would increase deferred tax assets which would be subject to a full valuation allowance. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefit is as follows:
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2020 2019
Balance at beginning of year $ 259,000 $ 87,000
Additions based on tax positions of prior years 16,000 172,000
Balance at end of year $ 275,000 $ 259,000
The Company's policy for deducting interest and penalties is to treat interest as interest expense and penalties as taxes. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $ 15,000 accrued for the payment of penalties and zero interest related to unrecognized tax benefits. The Company does not expect any material changes to our uncertain tax positions within the next 12 months.
N OTE 9 – S TOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE
Incentive Compensation Plan
In June 2010 shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the Company’s stock incentive plan, renaming it the Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), and among other things, increasing the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan to 1,630,000 . The Plan provides that the shares reserved under the Plan are available for issuance to officers of the Company, other key employees, non- employee directors, and advisors. The Plan is a successor to the Company’s previous plans, and any shares awarded and outstanding under those plans were transferred to the Plan. No further grants or share issuances will be made under the previous plans. On June 21, 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the Plan in order to extend the term of the Plan by two years to February 22, 2022. As of December 31, 2020, approximately 437,000 shares remain available for grant under the Plan.
Under the Plan, a total of 456,000 restricted stock units have been granted, consisting of 43,000 of annual automatic grants to non-employee directors and the corporate secretary, 293,000 of deferred retainer fees to non-employee members of the Board, 20,000 grants issued in lieu of commission, to two ( 2 ) employees of the Company and 100,000 restricted stock units issued to the CEO during 2020, see further discussion below. Of the total restricted stock units granted under the Plan 210,000 of them are fully vested but not yet deemed issued and outstanding, 233,000 are fully vested and outstanding, and 13,000 are outstanding as of December 31, 2020.

For the year ended December 31, 2020, total compensation expense recorded in the consolidated statements of operations related to restricted stock units in lieu of retainer fees was $ 80,000 . For the year ended December 31, 2020, total compensation expense recorded in the consolidated statements of income for annual restricted stock units awarded was $ 7,000 , with an offsetting tax benefit of $ 1,000 , as this expense is deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2020, there was $ 2,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to annual restricted stock units which is expected to be recognized over a period of 0.5 years. During 2020 and 2019, shares of restricted stock units totaling 3,000 and 4,000 each, respectively, with a fair value of approximately $ 9,000 and $ 11,000 , respectively, vested and became unrestricted.
Certain Executive Equity Awards
Effective May 4, 2020, the Company appointed Raymond C. Stachowiak as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer (“Interim CEO”). As part of his Offer Letter, the Interim CEO was granted 50,000 restricted stock awards that vested in full on August 3, 2020. The Interim CEO was granted additional restricted stock awards totaling 10,000 common shares per month, which vest in full at the end of each 30 -day period following issuance. On October 1, 2020 the Interim CEO was appointed the CEO. For the year ended December 31, 2020, 100,000 restricted stock awards were issued to the CEO and 90,000 became fully vested.

On January 4, 2017, the Company entered into a Performance Share Award Agreement with three executive officers of the Company (the “Award Agreements”) for 161,766 restricted stock awards which vest upon the achievement of certain performance metrics. The Award Agreements expired on March 31, 2020. Based on the guidance in ASC 718 Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company concluded these were performance-based awards with vesting criteria tied to performance metrics. As of December 31, 2017, the Company achieved one of the certain performance metrics under the Award Agreements and recognized stock compensation expense of approximately $ 108,000 related to these awards. The unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for these awards was approximately $ 421,000 and unvested restricted stock awards of approximately 129,000 were returned to the plan as of March 31, 2020.
As of December 31, 2020, stock compensation expense recorded in the consolidated financial statements is summarized as follows:

At December 31, 2020, there was approximately $ 12,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. This cost is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately three years .
The Company’s stock-based awards to employees are calculated using the Black-Scholes options valuation model. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, the Black-Scholes model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The Company’s stock-based awards have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the present value estimates. For these reasons, management believes that the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock-based awards to employees.
The fair value of the Company’s option grants issued during 2020 and 2019 were estimated using assumptions for expected life, volatility, dividend yield, forfeiture rate, and risk-free interest rate which are specific to each award as summarized in the following table. The estimated fair value of the Company’s options is amortized over the period during which the optionee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period.
The fair value of the Company’s option grants under the Plan in 2020 and 2019 was estimated using the following assumptions:
2020 2019
Expected life (years) 7.0 7.0
Expected forfeiture rate 0.0 % 0.0 %
Expected volatility 40 % 50 %
Dividend yield 0 % 0 %
Risk-free interest rate 0.4 % 1.9 %
Repurchase of Common Stock, Common Stock Warrants and Stock Options
In 1999 and 2001, the Board of Directors approved resolutions authorizing the Company to repurchase up to a total of 1,000,000 shares of its own stock on the open market, which the Board reaffirmed in 2008. There were no shares of the Company repurchased during 2020 or 2019. There are approximately 72,000 shares remaining under this repurchase authorization.

On December 20, 2018, the Company signed Second Amendments to two System Build Agreements for the Company’s second and third Mevion PBRT units. The Company and Mevion have agreed to upgrade the second and third PBRT units for which the Company has purchase commitments. The Company is actively seeking sites for these units but, to date, has not entered into agreements with any party for either placement of a PBRT unit or the related financing. The Company projects that it will be required to commence delivery of the second and third PBRT units no later than 2023. In the event the Company is unable to enter into customer agreements within the requisite time frame or receive an extension from Mevion, the Company could forfeit its deposits, which are described below.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had commitments to perform three ( 3 ) Cobalt-60 reloads and install four ( 4 ) Leksell Gamma Knife Icon Systems (“Icon”) at existing customer sites, and purchase two ( 2 ) Linear Accelerator ("LINAC") systems, one to be placed at an existing customer site and one at a new customer site. The Company also has a commitment to upgrade the Gamma Knife unit at its stand-alone facility in Ecuador to a Perfexion. The Cobalt-60 reloads, Icon upgrades, and LINAC purchases are scheduled to occur between 2021 and 2022. The Company expects to upgrade the equipment in Ecuador in the second quarter of 2021. Total Gamma Knife and LINAC commitments as of December 31, 2020 were $ 12,210,000 . There are no significant cash requirements, pending financing, for these commitments in the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that financing will be available for the Company’s current or future projects, or at terms that are acceptable to the Company.
On July 21, 2017, the Company entered into a Maintenance and Support Agreement (the “Mevion Service Agreement”) with Mevion, which provides for maintenance and support of the Company’s PBRT unit at Orlando Health. The Mevion Service Agreement began September 5, 2017, was amended in 2018, and renews annually over a five ( 5 ) year period. The agreement requires an annual prepayment of $ 1,572,000 for the current contractual period. This payment portion was recorded as a prepaid contract and will be amortized over the one -year service period.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had commitments to service and maintain its Gamma Knife and PBRT equipment. The service commitments are carried out via contracts with Mevion, Elekta and Mobius Imaging, LLC. In addition, in April 2019, the Company signed agreements to service the Icon upgrades which will be installed at various dates between 2021 and 2022. The Company’s commitments to purchase two LINAC systems also include a 9 -year and 5 -year agreement to service the equipment, respectively. Total service commitments as of December 31, 2020 were $ 10,493,000 . The Gamma Knife and certain other service contracts are paid monthly, as service is performed. The Company believes that cash flow from cash on hand and operations will be sufficient to cover these payments.
The Company estimates the following commitments for each of the equipment systems, with expected timing of payments as follows as of December 31, 2020:

The Company’s Gamma Knife business is operated through its 81 % indirect interest in its GKF subsidiary. The remaining 19 % of GKF is owned by a wholly owned U.S. subsidiary of Elekta, which is the manufacturer of the Gamma Knife. Since the Company purchases its Gamma Knife units from Elekta, there are significant related party transactions with Elekta such as equipment purchases, commitments to purchase equipment, deposits for such equipment purchases, and costs to maintain the equipment. The Company believes that all its transactions with Elekta are arm’s-length transactions. At December 31, 2020, the Company had commitments to purchase three ( 3 ) Cobalt-60 reloads, one ( 1 ) Perfexion upgrade, and install four ( 4 ) Leksell Gamma Knife Icon Systems (“Icon”) and service the related equipment, as discussed in Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies.
