Forward-Looking
Statements
Certain
statements that we make from time to time, including statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, constitute “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. These statements relate to anticipated future events, future results
of operations or future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,”
“might,” “will,” “should,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “goals,”
“projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,”
or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Our operations involve risks and uncertainties,
many of which are outside of our control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect our results of operations
and whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q include, without limitation, statements reflecting management’s expectations for future financial performance and operating
expenditures (including our ability to continue as a going concern, to raise additional capital and to succeed in our future operations),
expected growth, profitability and business outlook, increased sales and marketing expenses, and the expected results from the integration
of our acquisitions.
Forward-looking
statements are only predictions, are uncertain and involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which
may cause our (or our industry’s) actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future
results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other
things, the unknown risks and uncertainties that we believe could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements
as set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2021.
New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of the
risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements, including without limitation, risks and uncertainties
relating to:
●
our ability to manage our growth, including acquiring, partnering with, and effectively integrating acquired businesses into our infrastructure and avoiding legal exposure and liabilities associated with acquired companies and assets;
●
our ability to retain our clients and revenue levels, including effectively migrating new clients and maintaining or growing the revenue levels of our new and existing clients;
●
our ability to maintain operations in our Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka in a manner that continues to enable us to offer competitively priced products and services;
●
our ability to keep pace with a rapidly changing healthcare industry;
●
our ability to consistently achieve and maintain compliance with a myriad of federal, state, foreign, local, payor and industry requirements, regulations, rules, laws and contracts;
●
our ability to maintain and protect the privacy of confidential and protected Company, client and patient information;
●
our ability to develop new technologies, upgrade and adapt legacy and acquired technologies to work with evolving industry standards and third-party software platforms and technologies, and protect and enforce all of these and other intellectual property rights;
●
our ability to attract and retain key officers and employees, and the continued involvement of Mahmud Haq as Executive Chairman and A. Hadi Chaudhry as Chief Executive Officer and President, all of which are critical to our ongoing operations, growing our business and integrating of our newly acquired businesses;
●
our ability to comply with covenants contained in our credit agreement with our senior secured lender, Silicon Valley Bank and other future debt facilities;
●
our ability to pay our monthly preferred dividends to the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock;
●
our ability to compete with other companies developing products and selling services competitive with ours, and who may have greater resources and name recognition than we have;
●
our ability to respond to the uncertainty resulting from the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact it may have on our operations, the demand for our services, and economic activity in general; and
●
our ability to keep and increase market acceptance of our products and services.
Although
we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are reasonable,
we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by law, we are under no duty
to update or revise any of such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, after
the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
You
should read this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance
and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and as required by Regulation S-X, Rule
8-03. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting
of items of a normal and recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021, the
results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30,
2021 and 2020. When preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, the Company must make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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 significantly from those estimates.
8
The
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements. The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the
SEC on February 25, 2021.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements — On February 14, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income
Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income .
These amendments provide financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify standard tax effects within accumulated other comprehensive
income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax
Cuts and Jobs Act is recorded. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein.
There was no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of this standard.
In
June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting . This ASU simplifies the accounting
for nonemployee share-based payments by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with exceptions. Under
this guidance, the measurement of equity-classified nonemployee awards will be fixed at the grant date, which may lower their cost and
reduce volatility in the income statement. Awards to nonemployees are measured by estimating the fair value of the equity instruments
to be issued, rather than the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever
can be measured more reliably. Entities need to consider the probability that a performance condition will be satisfied when an award
contains such condition. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including
interim periods within that fiscal year. There was no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of this standard.
In
December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . This ASU simplifies accounting for income
taxes to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The amendments consist of the removal of certain exceptions to the general principles
of ASC 740 and some additional simplifications. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2020. There was no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as a result of this standard.
In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and
Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial
instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own
equity. The amendments are not required to be implemented until 2022 for public entities. The Company is in the process of investigating
if this update will have a significant impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.
The guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology under current
GAAP. The new impairment model requires immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur for most financial assets
and certain other instruments. It will apply to all entities. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, entities
will be required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. This may result in the earlier recognition of credit losses. In November
2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, which delays this standard’s effective date for SEC smaller reporting companies to the fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2022. The Company is in the process of investigating if this update will have a significant
impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITIONS
2021
Acquisition
On
June 1, 2021, CAC entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with MedMatica and its sole shareholder.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, CAC acquired (i) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of SRS, a Delaware corporation,
and (ii) all of the MedMatica assets that were used in MedMatica’s and SRS’ business. Certain MedMatica liabilities
were also assumed under the Purchase Agreement. The total cash consideration was $ 10
million plus a working capital adjustment of
approximately $ 3.8
million. The Purchase Agreement also provides
that if during the 18-month period commencing on June 1, 2021 (the “Earn-Out Period”), certain EBITDA and revenue targets with respect
to the assets and capital stock purchased under the Purchase Agreement are achieved, then CAC shall pay MedMatica an earn-out up to a
maximum of $ 8 million. Further, if during the Earn-Out Period, certain additional and increased EBITDA and revenue targets with respect
to the assets and capital stock purchased under the Purchase Agreement are achieved, then CAC shall pay MedMatica an additional earn-out,
up to a maximum of $ 5 million.
MedMatica
and SRS are in the business of providing a broad range of specialty consulting services to hospitals and large healthcare groups, including
certain consulting services related to healthcare IT application services and implementations, medical practice management, and
revenue cycle management. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination.

Total preliminary purchase price allocation
$ 20,332
The
acquired accounts receivable is recorded at fair value which represents amounts that have subsequently been paid or were expected to
be paid by clients. The fair value of customer relationships was based on the estimated discounted cash flows generated by these intangibles.
The goodwill represents the Company’s ability to have an expanded local presence in additional markets and operational synergies
that we expect to achieve that would not be available to other market participants. A portion of the goodwill from this acquisition is
deductible ratably for income tax purposes over fifteen years. The purchase
agreement provides that if revenue and EBITDA over the next 18 months exceed certain specified amounts, there will be an earn-out payment
to the seller equal to such excess, up to $13 million. It was estimated that the probable payment will be approximately $ 6.5 million
and this amount has been recorded as part of the preliminary purchase price allocation as contingent consideration.
As
part of the acquisition, $ 1.5 million of the purchase price was held in escrow which represents $ 500,000 to be paid upon the achievement
of agreed upon revenue and backlog milestones, and the balance will be held up to 18 months to satisfy certain indemnification obligations.
This amount is included in consideration payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021. Approximately $ 12.3 million
in cash was paid at closing.
The
weighted-average amortization period of the acquired intangible assets is approximately three years .
Revenue
earned from the clients obtained from the medSR acquisition on June 1, 2021 was approximately $ 2.6
million during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2021.
10
The
medSR acquisition added additional clients to the Company’s customer base and, similar to previous acquisitions, broadened the
Company’s presence in the healthcare information technology industry through expansion of its customer base and by increasing available
customer relationship resources and specialized trained staff.
2020
Acquisitions
On
June 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Meridian Billing Management Co., a Vermont corporation, Origin
Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and GMM II Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Seller”), pursuant
to which the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Meridian from the Seller. Meridian is in the business
of providing medical billing, revenue cycle management, electronic medical records, medical coding and related services. These revenues
have been included in the Company’s Healthcare IT segment. The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination.
The
total consideration paid at closing was $ 11.9 million, net of cash received, 200,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock plus
warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an exercise price per share of $ 7.50 and a term of two
years . The Company also assumed Meridian’s negative net working capital and certain long-term lease liabilities where the leased
space is either not being utilized or will be vacated shortly, with an aggregate value of approximately $ 4.8 million.

The
Company’s Preferred Stock and warrants issued as part of the acquisition consideration were issued in a transaction exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes
method. The Company registered for resale under the Securities Act the Preferred Stock and the securities underlying the warrants.
The
Meridian acquisition added additional 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

Revenue
earned from the clients obtained from the Meridian acquisition was approximately $ 9.8
million and $ 18.7
million during the three and six months ended
June 30, 2021, respectively, and was approximately $ 1.3
million during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2020.
On
January 8, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CareCloud Corporation,
a Delaware corporation which was subsequently renamed CareCloud Health, Inc. (“CCH”), MTBC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) and Runway Growth Credit Fund Inc. (“Runway”), solely
in its capacity as a seller representative, pursuant to which Merger Sub merged with and into CCH (the “Merger”), with CCH
surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger became effective simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement.
The acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination.
The
total consideration for the Merger included approximately $ 11.9 million paid in cash at closing, the assumption of a working capital
deficiency of approximately $ 5.1 million and 760,000 shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock. The Merger Agreement provided that
if CCH’s 2020 revenues exceed $36 million, there will be an earn-out payment to the seller equal to such excess, up to $3 million.
Based on the 2020 revenues, no earn-out payment was required. Additional consideration included warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares
of the Company’s common stock, 1,000,000 of which have an exercise price per share of $ 7.50 and a term of two years , and the other
1,000,000 warrants have an exercise price per share of $ 10.00 and a term of three years .

Of
the Preferred Stock consideration, 160,000 shares were placed in escrow for up to 24 months, and an additional 100,000 shares were placed
in escrow for up to 18 months, in both cases, to satisfy indemnification obligations of the seller for losses arising from certain specified
contingent liabilities. Shares net of such losses were released upon the joint instruction of the Company and Runway in accordance with
the applicable escrow terms. Such shares were entitled to the monthly dividend, which was to be paid when, and if, the shares were released.
The Company had accrued the dividend monthly on the Preferred Stock held in escrow. Due to the settlement of the obligation in April
2021, accrued dividends of $ 513,000 relating to the 160,000 shares held in escrow were reversed during the first quarter of 2021. The
shares held in escrow were forfeited to cover the cost of the settlement.
It
was determined that 55,822 shares of the Preferred Stock would be released from escrow and cancelled since one of the contingent liabilities
was settled for the amount of the cancelled shares. This included a cash payment of approximately $ 1.3
million . Dividends previously accrued on these shares of $ 102,000 were reversed as of June 30, 2020,
since the amounts will not need to be paid. The remaining shares held in escrow have been released.
The
Company’s Preferred Stock and warrants issued as part of the Merger consideration were issued in a transaction exempt from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The
warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes method. The Company registered for resale under the Securities
Act the Preferred Stock and the securities underlying the warrants.
The
CCH acquisition added additional clients to the Company’s customer base. The Company acquired CCH’s software technology and
related business. Similar to previous acquisitions, this transaction 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
Company engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist the Company in valuing the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from

DEBT
SVB
— During October 2017, the Company opened a revolving line of credit with SVB under a three-year agreement. The SVB credit
facility is a secured revolving line of credit where borrowings are based on a formula of 200 % of repeatable revenue adjusted by an annualized
attrition rate as defined in the credit agreement. During the third quarter of 2018, the credit line was increased from $ 5 million to
$ 10 million and the term was extended for an additional year. At June 30, 2021, $ 5 million was drawn, although it was subsequently repaid
in full during July, 2021. Interest on the SVB revolving line of credit is charged at the prime rate plus 1.50 %, with a minimum interest
rate of 6.5 %. There is also a fee of one-half of 1 % annually for the unused portion of the credit line. The debt is secured by all of
the Company’s domestic assets and 65% of the shares in its offshore facilities. Future acquisitions are subject to approval by
SVB.
Vehicle
Financing Notes — The Company financed certain vehicle purchases both in the United States and in Pakistan. The vehicle financing
notes have three to six year terms and were issued at current market rates.
Insurance
Financing — The Company finances certain insurance purchases over the term of the policy life. The interest rate charged is
4.0 % based on the annual renewal.

LEASES
We
determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”)
assets, current operating lease liability and non-current operating lease liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of
June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Each time the Company acquires a business, the ROU assets and the lease liabilities are recorded
at fair value as of the date of acquisition. The Company does not have any finance leases.
ROU
assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present
value of lease payments over the lease term.
We
use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which are derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining
the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to our bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization
of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.
Our
lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with a term of
less than 12 months are not recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value
guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Some leases include
escalation clauses and termination options that are factored in the determination of the lease payments when appropriate.
If
a lease is modified after the effective date, the operating lease ROU asset and liability is re-measured using the current incremental
borrowing rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were $ 466,000
of unoccupied lease charges for two of the Company’s
facilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were $ 64,000
of unoccupied lease charges and a lease impairment
of approximately $ 297,000 was
recorded since the Company is no longer using one of its leased facilities.
In
February 2021, the Company was able to settle one of the lease obligations assumed in connection with the Meridian acquisition for an
amount that approximated the remaining lease liability.
We
lease all of our facilities and some equipment. Lease expense is included in direct operating costs and general and administrative expenses
in the condensed consolidated statements of operations based on the nature of the expense. As of June 30, 2021, we had 40 leased properties,
six in Medical Practice Management and 34 in Healthcare IT, with remaining terms ranging from less than one
year to five years . Our lease terms are determined taking
into account lease renewal options, the Company’s anticipated operating plans and leases that are on a month-to-month basis. We
also have some related party leases – see Note 9.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal
Proceedings — On April 4, 2017, Randolph Pain Relief and Wellness Center (“RPRWC”) filed an arbitration demand
with the American Arbitration Association (the “Arbitration”) seeking to arbitrate claims against CareCloud, Inc. (“CareCloud”)
and MTBC Acquisition Corp. (“MAC”). The claims relate solely to services provided by Millennium Practice Management Associates,
Inc. (“MPMA”), a subsidiary of MediGain, LLC, pursuant to a billing services agreement that contains an arbitration provision.
CareCloud and MAC jointly moved in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division, Somerset County (the “Chancery Court”)
to enjoin the Arbitration on the grounds that neither were a party to the billing services agreement. On May 30, 2018, the Chancery Court
denied that motion and CareCloud and MAC appealed. The Chancery Court ordered the Arbitration stayed pending the appeal.
On
April 23, 2019, the Appellate Division reversed the Chancery Court’s ruling that CareCloud is required to participate in the Arbitration
and remanded the case for further proceedings before the Chancery Court on that issue. The Appellate Division upheld the Chancery Court’s
ruling that MAC was required to participate in the Arbitration. The parties completed discovery in the remanded matter, and both CareCloud
and RPRWC filed cross-motions for summary judgement in their favor. On February 6, 2020, the Chancery Court denied RPRWC’s motion
for summary judgment and granted CareCloud’s motion for summary judgment, holding that CareCloud cannot be compelled to participate
in the Arbitration. RPRWC has informed CareCloud that it does not intend to appeal the Chancery Court’s ruling and that it intends
to move forward solely against MAC in the Arbitration. On March 25, 2020, the Chancery Court lifted the stay of arbitration relative
to RPRWC and MAC.
Due
to conflicting information provided by RPRWC, it is unclear what the extent of the claimed damages are in this matter which at this time
appear to be entirely speculative. According to its arbitration demand, RPRWC seeks compensatory damages of $6.6 million, plus costs,
for MPMA’s alleged breach of the billing services agreement . On June 12, 2020, in response to a directive from the arbitrator,
RPRWC disclosed a statement of damages to MAC in which it increased its alleged damages from $ 6.6 million and costs to $ 20 million and
costs. On July 24, 2020, RPRWC disclosed a declaration to MAC, in which RPRWC estimates its damages to be approximately $ 11 million plus
costs. MAC intends to vigorously defend against RPRWC’s claims. If RPRWC is successful in the Arbitration,
CareCloud and MAC anticipate the award would be substantially less than the amount claimed.
Through
the CCH transaction, we acquired CCH’s software technology and related business, of which certain elements were, at the
time of the acquisition, subject to a civil investigation to determine pre-acquisition compliance with certain federal regulatory requirements.
Following the closing of the transaction, the Company continued to cooperate with the inquiry as CCH had historically done since the
commencement of the investigation in July of 2018. This element was considered as part of the transaction as $ 4
million of the transaction’s consideration
was held in escrow for the resolution of this investigation. The Company accrued $ 4.2
million to resolve this investigation, of which
up to $ 4
million is the escrow, which has been recorded
as an indemnification asset which is included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020 in prepaid expenses and
other current assets with an offsetting amount in accrued expenses. The Company settled the obligation in April 2021 substantially within
the range covered by the escrowed funds.
From
time to time, we may become involved in other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Including the proceedings
described above, we are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, would individually or
taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows of
the Company.

18
The
Company is a party to a nonexclusive aircraft dry lease agreement with Kashmir Air, Inc. (“KAI”), which is owned by the Executive
Chairman. The Company recorded an expense of approximately $ 60,000 and $ 73,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020
and $ 30,000 and $ 32,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020,
the Company had a liability outstanding to KAI of approximately $ 1,000 , which is included in accrued liability to related party in the
condensed consolidated balance sheets. The lease for the current aircraft was renewed as of April 1, 2021 and has been included in the
ROU asset and operating lease liability at December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021.
The
Company leases its corporate offices in New Jersey, its temporary housing for its foreign visitors, a printing and mailing facility and
its backup operations center in Bagh, Pakistan, from the Executive Chairman. The related party rent expense for the six months ended
June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $ 94,000 and $ 93,000 and $ 49,000 and $ 46,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively and is included in direct operating costs and general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements
of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company spent approximately $ 807,000 to upgrade two of the related party
leased facilities. Current assets-related party in the condensed consolidated balance sheets includes security deposits and prepaid rent
related to the leases of the Company’s corporate offices in the amount of approximately $ 13,000 as of both June 30, 2021 and December
31, 2020.
Included
in the ROU asset at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is approximately $ 257,000
and $ 283,000 ,
respectively, applicable to the related party leases. Included in the current and non-current operating lease liability at June 30, 2021
is approximately $ 196,000
and $ 72,000 ,
respectively, applicable to the related party leases. At December 31, 2020, the current and non-current operating lease liability applicable
to related party leases was approximately $ 202,000
and $ 92,000 ,
respectively.
During
the first quarter of 2020, talkMD Clinicians, PA, a New Jersey corporation was formed to provide telehealth services. This entity is
owned by the wife of the Executive Chairman since an entity providing medical services must be owned by a physician. The Company did
not have any transactions with this entity since its formation.
10.
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The Company may sell
up to $ 50 million of its common stock using an “at-the-market” facility (“ATM”). The underwriter receives 3 % of
the gross proceeds. During the quarter, the Company sold
178,092 shares
of common stock under its ATM and received net proceeds of approximately $ 1.4
million. Also during the quarter, the Company
cancelled 215,822
shares of preferred stock that were held in escrow
from the CCH acquisition as the matters related to the escrow were settled in cash.
11.
REVENUE
Introduction
The
Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers . All revenue is recognized as our
performance obligations are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to
a customer, and is the unit of account under ASC 606. Under ASC 606, the Company breaks a contract into distinctly identifiable performance
obligations. Most of our contracts with customers contain a single performance obligation. For contracts where we provide multiple services,
such as where we perform multiple ancillary services which are priced separately, each service represents its own performance obligation.
Selling prices are based on the contractual price for the service, which approximates their standalone selling price.
Many
technology-enabled business solutions are invoiced based on receipt of payment by the practices
which are our clients, for medical billing claims where the provider utilized our software or where we submitted a claim. For these solutions,
the Company estimates the value of the consideration it will earn over the remaining contractual period as our services are provided
and recognizes the fees over the term; this estimation involves predicting the amounts our clients will ultimately collect associated
with the services they provided. The selling price of the Company’s services equals the contractual price. Certain significant
estimates, such as payment-to-charge ratios, effective billing rates and the estimated contractual payment periods are required to measure revenue under ASC 606.
19
We
apply the portfolio approach as permitted by ASC 606 as a practical expedient to contracts with similar characteristics and we use estimates
and assumptions when accounting for those portfolios. Our contracts generally include standard commercial payment terms. We have no significant
obligations for refunds, warranties or similar obligations and our revenue does not include taxes collected from our customers.
Disaggregation
of Revenue from Contracts with Customers
We
derive the majority of our revenue from providing technology-enabled business solutions, including our integrated SaaS-based software
platform and revenue cycle management services. In addition, we derive revenues from professional services, group purchasing services,
printing and mailing services, and medical practice management services.
The
following table represents a disaggregation of revenue for the three months and six months ended June 30:

Technology-enabled
business solutions:
Most
of our revenue comes from clients who are using subscription-based technology-enabled business solutions. These solutions typically include
one or more elements of our proprietary cloud-based software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) platform, along with revenue cycle management
and related services.
Practice
management software automates the labor-intensive workflow of a medical office in a unified and streamlined manner. EHR software
allows our healthcare provider clients to deliver better patient care, document their clinical visits effectively and thus potentially
qualify for government incentives, reduce documentation errors and reduce paperwork. Patient experience management software allows patients
to schedule appointments, request refills, and view their electronic records online or via their mobile device. Business intelligence,
robotic process automation, patient experience software, customized applications, interfaces and a variety of other technology solutions
support our healthcare clients, either in conjunction with our practice management and EHR platform or through interfaces with third-party
platforms. When these software elements are part of the technology-enabled business solution, they are normally included in a price,
which is normally expressed as a percentage of the practice’s collections.
Revenue
cycle management services are the recurring process of submitting and following up on claims with health insurance companies in order
for the healthcare providers to receive payment for the services they rendered. Approximately 81 %
of our revenue is derived from clients using one or more elements of
our technology platform and approximately 19 %
comes from clients using our other services.
The
Company invoices many customers on a monthly basis based on the actual collections received by customers and the agreed-upon rate in
the sales contract. The fee for these services typically includes use of practice management software and related tools (on a SaaS basis),
electronic health records (on a SaaS basis), medical billing services and use of mobile health solutions. Alternatively, SaaS fees may
be fixed based on the number of providers, or may be variable based on usage. We consider the services to be one performance obligation
since the promises are not distinct in the context of the contract. The performance obligation consists of a series of distinct services
that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers.
In
many cases, our clients may terminate their agreements with 90 days’ notice without cause, thereby limiting the term in which we
have enforceable rights and obligations, although this time period can vary between clients. Our payment terms are normally net 30 days.
Although our contracts typically have stated terms of one or more years, under ASC 606 our contracts are considered month-to-month and
accordingly, there is no financing component.
20
For
the majority of our contracts, the total transaction price is variable because our obligation is to process an unknown quantity of claims,
as and when requested by our customers over the contract period. When a contract includes variable consideration, we evaluate the estimate
of the variable consideration to determine whether the estimate needs to be constrained; therefore, we include variable consideration
in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the amount of cumulative revenue recognized
will not occur when the uncertainty associated with variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Estimates to determine variable
consideration such as payment to charge ratios, effective billing rates, and the estimated contractual payment periods are updated at
each reporting date. Revenue is recognized over the performance period using the input method.
Included
in technology-enabled business solutions are ancillary services such as coding, credentialing and transcription that are rendered
in connection with the delivery of revenue cycle management and related services. The Company invoices customers monthly, based on the
actual amount of services performed at the agreed upon rate in the contract. These services are only offered to revenue cycle management
customers. These services do not represent a material right because the services are optional to the customer and customers electing
these services are charged the same price for those services as if they were on a standalone basis. Each individual ancillary service
transaction processed represents a performance obligation, which is satisfied over time as that individual service is rendered.
Also
included in technology-enabled business solutions are medical billing clearinghouse services which takes claim information from
customers, checks the claims for errors and sends this information electronically to insurance companies. The Company invoices customers
on a monthly basis based on the number of claims submitted and the agreed-upon rate in the agreement. This service is provided to medical
practices and providers to medical practices who are not revenue cycle management customers. The performance obligation is satisfied
once the relevant submissions are completed.
Professional
services:
The
Company provides implementation and professional services to certain customers and records revenue monthly on a time and materials or
a fixed rate basis. These services consist of implementation, advisory and on demand staffing. This is a separate performance obligation
from any revenue cycle management and SaaS services provided, for which the Company receives and records monthly fees. The performance
obligation is satisfied over time as the professional services are rendered.
Substantially all of the professional services
obligations consist of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and have the same periodic pattern of transfer to
our customers, Revenue is recognized over time.
Other
revenue streams :
The
Company provides printing and mailing services for both technology-enabled business solutions and a customer that does not utilize
our technology-enabled business solutions, and invoices on a monthly basis based on the number of prints, the agreed-upon rate per print
and the postage incurred. The performance obligation is satisfied once the printing and mailing is completed.
The
Company also provides group purchasing services which enable medical providers to purchase various vaccines directly from selected pharmaceutical
companies at a discounted price. Currently, there are approximately 4,000 medical providers who are members of the program. Revenue is
recognized as the vaccine shipments are made to the medical providers. Fees from the pharmaceutical companies are paid either quarterly
or annually and the Company adjusts its revenue accrual at the time of payment. The Company makes significant judgments regarding the
variable consideration which we expect to be entitled to for the group purchasing services which includes the anticipated shipments to
the members enrolled in the program, anticipated volumes of purchases made by the members, and the changes in the number of members.
The amounts recorded are constrained by estimates of decreases in shipments and loss of members to avoid a significant revenue reversal
in the subsequent period. The only performance obligation is to provide the pharmaceutical companies with the medical providers who want
to become members in order to purchase vaccines. The performance obligation is satisfied once the medical provider agrees to purchase
a specific quantity of vaccines and the medical provider’s information is forwarded to the vaccine suppliers. The Company records
a contract asset for revenue earned and not paid as the ultimate payment is conditioned on achieving certain volume thresholds.
21
For
all of the above revenue streams other than group purchasing services and printing and mailing, revenue is recognized over time,
which is typically one month or less, which closely matches the point in time that the customer simultaneously receives and consumes
the benefits provided by the Company. For the group purchasing services, revenue is recognized at a point in time. Each service is substantially
the same and has the same periodic pattern of transfer to the customer. Each of the services provided above is considered a separate
performance obligation.
Medical
practice management services:
The
Company also provides medical practice management services under long-term management service agreements to three medical practices.
We provide the medical practices with the nurses, administrative support, facilities, supplies, equipment, marketing, RCM, accounting,
and other non-clinical services needed to efficiently operate their practices. Revenue is recognized as the services are provided to
the medical practices. Revenue recorded in the consolidated statements of operations represents the reimbursement of costs paid by the
Company for the practices and the management fee earned each month for managing the practice. The management fee is based on either a
fixed fee or a percentage of the net operating income.
The
Company assumes all financial risk for the performance of the managed medical practices. Revenue is impacted by the amount of the costs
incurred by the practices and their operating income. The gross billing of the practices is impacted by billing rates, changes in current
procedural terminology code reimbursement and collection trends which in turn impacts the management fee that the Company is entitled
to. Billing rates are reviewed at least annually and adjusted based on current insurer reimbursement practices. The performance obligation
is satisfied as the management services are provided.
Our
contracts for medical practice management services have approximately an additional 20 years remaining and are only cancellable
under very limited circumstances. The Company receives a management fee each month for managing the day-to-day business operations of
each medical group as a fixed fee or a percentage payment of the net operating income which is included in revenue in the condensed consolidated
statements of operations.
Our
medical practice management services obligations consist of a series of distinct services that are substantially the same and
have the same periodic pattern of transfer to our customers. Revenue is recognized over time; however, for reporting and
convenience purposes, the management fee is computed at each month end.
Information
about contract balances:
The
contract assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets represent the revenue associated with the amounts we estimate our
clients will ultimately collect if our charges are based on a percentage of collections, together with amounts related to the
group purchasing services. As of June 30, 2021, the estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to the
remaining performance obligations outstanding was approximately $ 4.1 million.
We expect to recognize substantially all of the revenue for the remaining performance obligations over the next three months.
Approximately $ 315,000 of
the contract asset represents revenue earned, not paid, from the group purchasing services. Approximately $ 1.0 million
of the contract asset represents revenue for professional services performed, not yet invoiced to the customer.
Accounts
receivable are shown separately at their net realizable value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts that we are entitled
to collect under the applicable contract are recorded as accounts receivable. Invoicing is performed at the end of each month when the
services have been provided. The contract asset results from our revenue cycle management services and is due to the timing of revenue
recognition, submission of claims from our customers and payments from the insurance providers. The contract asset includes our right
to payment for services already transferred to a customer when the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage
of time. For example, contracts for revenue cycle management services where we recognize revenue over time but do not have a contractual
right to payment until the customer receives payment of their claim from the insurance provider. The contract asset also includes the
revenue accrued, not received, for the group purchasing services and revenue earned, not invoiced, for professional services.
22
The
contract asset was approximately $ 5.5 million and $ 3.4 million as of June
30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Changes in the contract asset are recorded as adjustments to net revenue. The changes primarily result
from providing services to customers that result in additional consideration and are offset by our right to
payment for services becoming unconditional and changes in the revenue accrued for the group purchasing services. The contract asset
for our group purchasing services is reduced when we receive payments from vaccine manufacturers and is increased for revenue earned,
not received. The contract asset for professional services is reduced when the customer is invoiced and is increased as services are
rendered. Deferred revenue represents sign-up fees received from customers that are amortized over three years. The opening and closing
balances of the Company’s accounts receivable, contract asset and deferred revenue are as follows for the six months ended June
30, 2021 and 2020:

Deferred
commissions:
Our
sales incentive plans include commissions payable to employees and third parties at the time of initial contract execution that are capitalized
as incremental costs to obtain a contract. The capitalized commissions are amortized over the period the related services are transferred.
As we do not offer commissions on contract renewals, we have determined the amortization period to be the estimated client life which
is three years for contracts entered into by CCH. Deferred commissions were approximately $ 1.0 million and $ 836,000 at June 30, 2021
and 2020, respectively, and are included in the other assets amounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
12. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In
April 2014, the Company adopted the Medical Transcription Billing, Corp. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), reserving
1,351,000 shares of common stock for grants to employees, officers, directors and consultants. During 2017, the 2014 Plan was amended
and restated whereby an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock and 100,000 shares of Preferred Stock were added to the plan for
future issuance. The 2014 Plan was amended and restated on April 14, 2017 (the “Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan”).
During 2018, an additional 200,000 of preferred shares were added to the plan for future issuance. In May 2020, an additional 2,000,000
shares of common stock and 300,000 shares of Preferred Stock were added to the plan for future issuance. As of June 30, 2021, 1,329,267
shares of common stock and 327,909 shares of Preferred Stock are available for grant. Permissible awards include incentive stock options,
non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, performance stock and cash-settled awards and other stock-based
awards in the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors including unrestricted stock grants.
23
The
equity-based RSUs contain a provision in which the units shall immediately vest and become converted into common shares at the rate of
one share per RSU, immediately after a change in control, as defined in the award agreement. The preferred stock RSUs contain a similar
provision, which vest and convert to Preferred Stock upon a change in control.
Common
and preferred stock RSUs
In
January 2021, the Compensation Committee approved executive bonuses to be paid in shares of Preferred Stock, with the number of shares
and the amount based on specified criteria being achieved during the year 2021. The actual amount will be settled in early 2022 based
on the achievement of the specified criteria. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, an expense of approximately $ 450,000 , was recorded
for these bonuses based on the value of the shares at the grant date and recognized over the service period. The portion of the stock
compensation expense to be used for the payment of withholding and payroll taxes is included in accrued compensation in the condensed
consolidated balance sheets. The balance of the stock compensation expense has been recorded as additional paid-in capital.
The
following table summarizes the RSU transactions related to the common and preferred stock under the Equity Incentive Plan for the six
months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Stock-based
compensation expense
The
Company recognizes compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the total requisite service period for the entire award. For stock
awards classified as equity, the market price of our common stock or preferred stock on the date of grant is used in recording the fair
value of the award and includes the related taxes. For stock awards classified as a liability, the earned amount is marked to market
based on the end of period common stock price. The liability for the cash-settled awards was approximately $ 658,000 and $ 976,000 at June
30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is included in accrued compensation in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

13. INCOME TAXES
The
income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $ 213,000 ,
comprised of a current tax expense of $ 51,000
and a deferred tax expense of $ 162,000 .
The income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $ 212,000 ,
comprised of a current tax expense of $ 86,000
and a deferred tax expense of $ 126,000 .
The deferred tax expense is not anticipated to result in a cash payment.
The
current income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 primarily relates to state minimum taxes and foreign income
taxes. The deferred tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 relates to the book and tax difference of
amortization on indefinite-lived intangibles, primarily goodwill. To the extent allowable, the federal deferred tax provision
has been offset by the indefinite life net operating loss.
On
March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act was signed into law. Several new corporate tax provisions
were included in the CARES Act, including, but not limited to, the following: increasing the limitation threshold for determining deductible
interest expense, class life changes to qualified improvements (in general - from 39
years to 15
years), and the
ability to carry back net operating losses incurred from tax years 2018 through 2020 up to the five preceding tax years.
The Company has evaluated the income tax provisions of the
CARES Act and determined the impact to be either immaterial or not applicable. Under the CARES Act, the Company took advantage of the
payroll tax deferral provision. As of both June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has deferred approximately $ 1.9
million of payroll taxes. Of this amount,
one-half needs to be repaid by December 31, 2021 and the balance by December 31, 2022.
The
Company has incurred cumulative losses which make realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740.
Accordingly, a valuation allowance has been recorded against the Federal and state deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021 and December
31, 2020.
14. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As
of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated
their estimated fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Fair
value measurements-Level 2
Our
notes payable are carried at cost and approximate fair value since the interest rates being charged approximate market rates. As a result,
the Company categorizes these borrowings as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Contingent
Consideration
The
Company’s contingent consideration is a Level 3 liability. The fair value of the contingent consideration is primarily driven by
changes in revenue estimates related to acquisitions, the passage of time and the associated discount rate. As of June 30, 2021, the
contingent consideration is approximately $ 6.5 million and relates to medSR .
The
following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the contingent consideration measured at fair value
using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

15. SEGMENT REPORTING
Both
our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman serve as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), organize the Company,
manage resource allocations and measure performance among two operating and reportable segments: (i) Healthcare IT and (ii) Medical
Practice Management.
The
Healthcare IT segment includes revenue cycle management, SaaS solutions and other services. The Medical Practice Management segment
includes the management of three medical practices. Each segment is considered a reporting unit. The CODM evaluates financial performance
of the business units on the basis of revenue and direct operating costs excluding unallocated amounts, which are mainly corporate overhead
costs. Our CODM does not evaluate operating segments using asset or liability information. The accounting policies of the segments are
the same as those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC
on February 25, 2021. The following tables present revenues, operating expenses and operating (loss) income by reportable segment:

2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The
following is a discussion of our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2021 and 2020, and other factors that are expected to affect our prospective financial condition. The following discussion and
analysis should be read together with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes beginning on page 4 of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.
Some
of the statements set forth in this section are forward-looking statements relating to our future results of operations. Our actual results
may vary from the results anticipated by these statements. Please see “ Forward-Looking Statements ” on page 2 of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
COVID-19
Pandemic
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, SARS-CoV-2, and
the resulting disease COVID-19, has spread to most countries, and all 50 states within the United States. In March 2020, the World Health
Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Further, the former President of the United States declared the COVID-19 pandemic
a national emergency, invoking powers under the Stafford Act, the legislation that directs federal emergency disaster response, and under
the Defense Production Act, the legislation that facilitates the production of goods and services necessary for national security and
for other purposes. Numerous governmental jurisdictions, including the State of New Jersey where we maintain our principal executive
offices, and those in which many of our U.S. and international offices are based, have imposed, and others in the future may impose,
“shelter-in-place” orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar government orders and restrictions for their residents
to control the spread of COVID-19. Most states and the federal government, including the State of New Jersey, together with foreign jurisdictions
in which we have operations centers, have declared a state of emergency related to the spread of COVID-19.
While
the COVID-19 pandemic did not materially adversely affect the Company’s consolidated financial results and operations during the
six months ended June 30, 2021, economic and health conditions in the United States and across most of the globe continue to change.
The Company has expanded its telehealth operations, which is an alternative to office visits. However, not all physicians are using telehealth
and not to the same extent as previous office visits.
The
COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the Company’s operations in 2021, and may continue to do so indefinitely thereafter. The pandemic
may have an impact on the Company’s business, operations, and financial results and conditions, directly and indirectly, including,
without limitation, impacts on the health of the Company’s management and employees, its operations, marketing and sales activities,
and on the overall economy. The spread of the virus did not adversely affect the health and availability of our employees and staff.
The scope and nature of these impacts, most of which are beyond the Company’s control, continue to evolve and the outcomes are
uncertain.
Due
to the above circumstances and as described generally in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s consolidated results
of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
fiscal year. The Company is not aware of any certain event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgements
or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These
estimates could change in the future as new information about future developments is obtained. Management cannot predict the full impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s consolidated operations nor on economic conditions generally, including the effects on
patient visits. The ultimate extent of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company is highly uncertain and will depend on highly
unpredictable factors such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the severity of the disease, the duration of outbreak, and
the effectiveness of any further developments globally and nationally. The Company will actively monitor the situation and take further
action that is in the best interest of our employees, customers, partners, and stockholders.

Overview
CareCloud,
Inc. (“CareCloud” and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we”, “us”
and/or “our”) is a healthcare information technology company that provides a full suite of proprietary cloud-based solutions,
together with related business services, to healthcare providers and hospitals throughout the United States. Our Software-as-a-Service
(“SaaS”) platform includes revenue cycle management (“RCM”), practice management (“PM”), electronic
health record (“EHR”), business intelligence, telehealth, patient experience management (“PXM”) solutions and
complementary software tools and business services for high-performance medical groups and health systems.
At
a high level, these solutions can be categorized as follows:
●
Technology-enabled
business solutions, which are often bundled but are occasionally provided individually, including:
○
EHRs,
which are easy to use, integrated with our business services or offered as Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) solutions,
and allow our healthcare provider clients to deliver better patient care, document their clinical visits effectively and thus potentially
qualify for government incentives, reduce documentation errors and reduce paperwork;
○
PM
software and related tools, which support our clients’ day-to-day business operations and workflows;
○
Mobile
Health (“mHealth”) solutions, including smartphone applications that assist patients and healthcare providers in the
provision of healthcare services;
○
Telehealth
solutions, which allow healthcare providers to conduct remote patient visits;
○
Healthcare
claims clearinghouse, which enables our clients to electronically scrub and submit claims to, and process payments from, insurance
companies;
○
Business
intelligence, customized applications, interfaces and a variety of other technology solutions that support our healthcare clients;
and
○
RCM
services, which include end-to-end medical billing, eligibility, analytics, and related services, all of which can often be provided
either with our technology platform or through a third-party system.
●
Professional services consisting of application and advisory services, revenue cycle services, data analytic services and educational training services.
●
Medical
practice management services are provided to medical practices. In this service model, we provide the medical practice with
appropriate facilities, equipment, supplies, support services, nurses and administrative support staff. We also provide management,
bill-paying and financial advisory services.
Our
solutions enable clients to increase financial and operational performance, streamline clinical workflows, get better insight through
data, and make better business and clinical decisions, resulting in improvement in patient care and collections while reducing administrative
burdens and operating costs.
The
modernization of the healthcare industry is transforming nearly every aspect of a healthcare organization from policy to providers; clinical
care to member services, devices to data, and ultimately the quality of the patient’s experience as a healthcare consumer. We create
elegant, user-friendly applications that solve many of the challenges facing healthcare organizations. We partner with organizations
to develop customized, best-in-class solutions to solve their specific challenges while ensuring they also meet future regulatory and
organizational requirements and market demands.
We
are able to deliver our industry-leading solutions at very competitive prices because we leverage a combination of our proprietary software,
which automates our workflows and increases efficiency, together with our team of approximately 700 experienced
health industry experts throughout the United States. These experts are supported by our highly educated and specialized offshore workforce
of approximately 3,300 team members at labor costs that we believe
are approximately one-tenth the cost of comparable U.S. employees. Our u nique business model also allowed us to become a leading
consolidator in our industry sector, gaining us a reputation for acquiring and positively transforming distressed competitors into profitable
operations of CareCloud .
Adoption
of our technology-enabled business solutions typically requires little or no upfront expenditure by a client. Additionally, for most
of our solutions and customers, our financial performance is linked directly to the financial performance of our clients, as the vast
majority of our revenues are based on a percentage of our clients’ collections. The fees we charge for our complete,
integrated, end-to-end solution are very competitive and among the lowest in the industry. We estimate that we currently provide services
to more than 40,000 providers, (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff
that render bills for their services) practicing in approximately 2,600 independent medical practices and hospitals representing
80 specialties and subspecialties in 50 states. In addition, we serve approximately 200 clients which are not medical practices, but
are primarily service organizations who serve the healthcare community. The foregoing numbers include clients leveraging any of our products
or services, and are based, in part, upon estimates where the precise number of practices
or providers is unknown .
28
We
service clients ranging from small practices, consisting of one to ten providers, to large practices with over 2,000 providers operating
in multiple states, to community hospitals.
On
January 8, 2020, through a merger with a subsidiary, the Company acquired CareCloud Corporation, a Delaware corporation which was subsequently
renamed CareCloud Health, Inc (“CCH”), which has developed a highly acclaimed cloud-based platform including EHR, PM and
patient experience capabilities. The Company paid $11.9 million in cash, assumed a working capital deficiency of approximately $5.1 million
and issued 760,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and two million warrants for the purchase of the Company’s
common stock at prices of $7.50 for two years and $10.00 per share for three years.
On
June 16, 2020, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Meridian Billing Management Co. and its affiliate
Origin Holdings, Inc. (collectively “Meridian” and sometimes referred to as “Meridian Medical Management”), a
former GE Healthcare IT company that delivers advanced healthcare information technology solutions and services. The Company paid $11.9
million in cash, issued 200,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 2,250,000 of the Company’s
common stock with an exercise price per share of $7.50 for two years and assumed Meridian’s negative working capital and certain
long-term lease liabilities where the space is either not being utilized or will be vacated shortly, with an aggregate value of approximately
$4.8 million.
On
June 1, 2021, CareCloud Acquisition Corp (“CAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”) with MedMatica Consulting Associates, Inc., (“MedMatica”) whereby CAC purchased
the assets of MedMatica and the stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary Santa Rosa Staffing, Inc. (“SRS”). MedMatica and
SRS provide a broad range of specialty consulting services to hospitals and large healthcare groups, including certain consulting
services related to healthcare IT applications services and implementations, practice management, and revenue cycle management. The total
consideration paid at closing was $10 million in cash, net of $1.5 million of escrow withheld. A working capital adjustment of approximately
$3.8 million was also paid at closing. The Purchase Agreement provides that if during the 18-month period commencing on June 1, 2021
(“the “Earn-Out Period”), CAC’s EBITDA and revenue targets are achieved, then CAC shall pay an earn-out up to
a maximum of $8 million (the “Base Earn-Out”). If during the Earn-Out Period, CAC’s additional and increased
EBITDA and revenue targets are achieved, then CAC shall pay an additional earn-out, up to a maximum of $5 million (the “Additional
Earn-Out”, collectively, with the Base Earn-Out, the “Earn-Out”). CAC will have the right to offset the Earn-Out against
any claim for which CAC is entitled to indemnification under the Purchase Agreement and against damages for breaches by the seller of
the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions in the Purchase Agreement.
Our
offshore operations in the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka accounted for approximately 11%
of total expenses for both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. A significant portion of those foreign expenses were personnel-related
costs (approximately 80% for both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020). Because personnel-related costs are significantly lower
in Pakistan and Sri Lanka than in the U.S. and many other offshore locations, we believe our offshore operations give us a competitive
advantage over many industry participants. We are able to achieve significant cost reductions and leverage technology to reduce
manual work and strategically transition a portion of the remaining manual tasks to our highly-specialized, cost-efficient team in the
U.S., the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka.
Key
Performance Measures
We
consider numerous factors in assessing our performance. Key performance measures used by management, including adjusted EBITDA, adjusted
operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share, are non-GAAP financial measures,
which we believe better enable management and investors to analyze and compare the underlying business results from period to period.
These
non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Moreover, these non-GAAP
financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all the items associated with the operations of our business as determined
in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP
basis, and we provide reconciliations from the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures. Our
non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies, including companies
in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those
measures for comparative purposes.
Adjusted
EBITDA, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share provide an alternative
view of performance used by management and we believe that an investor’s understanding of our performance is enhanced by disclosing
these adjusted performance measures.
29
Adjusted
EBITDA excludes the following elements which are included in GAAP net income (loss):
●
Income
tax expense (benefit) or the cash requirements to pay our taxes;
●
Interest
expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest on principal payments, on our debt;
●
Foreign
currency gains and losses and other non-operating expenditures;
●
Stock-based
compensation expense includes cash-settled awards and the related taxes, based on changes in the stock price;
●
Depreciation
and amortization charges;
●
Integration
costs, such as severance amounts paid to employees from acquired businesses, and transaction costs, such as brokerage fees,
pre-acquisition accounting costs and legal fees and exit costs related to contractual agreements; and
●
Impairment
and unoccupied lease charges.

For
purposes of determining non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share, the Company used the number of common shares outstanding at the end of
June 30, 2021 and 2020. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share was computed using an as-converted method and includes warrants
that are in-the-money as of that date as well as outstanding unvested RSUs. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted
diluted earnings per share do not take into account dividends paid on Preferred Stock. No tax effect has been provided in computing non-GAAP
adjusted earnings per share and non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share as the Company has sufficient carry forward net operating
losses to offset the applicable income taxes.
Key
Metrics
In
addition to the line items in our condensed consolidated financial statements, we regularly review the following metrics. We believe
information on these metrics is useful for investors to understand the underlying trends in our business.
31
Providers
and Practices Served: As of June 30, 2021, we provided services to an estimated universe of more than 40,000 providers (which we
define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their services),
representing approximately 2,600 independent medical practices and hospitals. In addition, we served approximately 200 clients who were
not medical practices, but are service organizations who serve the healthcare community. The foregoing numbers include clients leveraging
any of our products or services and are based in part upon estimates in cases where the precise number of practices or providers is unknown.
Sources
of Revenue
Revenue:
We primarily derive our revenues from subscription-based technology-enabled business solutions, reported in our Healthcare IT segment,
which are typically billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers. This fee includes RCM, as well as the ability to use
our EHR, practice management system and other software as part of the bundled fee. These solutions accounted
for approximately 80% and 83% of our revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 83%
and 82% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Other Healthcare IT services, including printing and mailing operations,
group purchasing and professional services, represented approximately 12% and 5% of revenues for the three months ended June 30,
2021 and 2020, respectively, and 8% and 5% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We
earned approximately 8% and 12% of our revenue from medical practice management services during the three months
ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 9% and 13% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively .
This revenue represents fees based on our actual costs plus a percentage of the operating profit and is reported in our Medical
Practice Management segment.
Operating
Expenses
Direct
Operating Costs. Direct operating cost consists primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to our
customers, claims processing costs, costs to operate the three managed practices, including facility lease costs, supplies, insurance
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 condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
Selling
and Marketing Expense. Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of compensation and benefits, commissions, travel and advertising
expenses.
General
and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel-related expense for administrative
employees, including compensation, benefits, travel, facility lease costs and insurance, software license fees and outside professional
fees.
Research
and Development Expense. Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel-related costs and third-party contractor
costs.
Contingent
Consideration. Contingent consideration represents the portion of consideration payable to the sellers of some of our acquisitions,
the amount of which is based on the achievement of defined performance measures contained in the purchase agreements. Contingent consideration
is adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period.
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. Amortization expense is charged
on either an accelerated or on a straight-line basis over a period of three or four years for most intangible assets acquired in connection
with acquisitions including those intangibles related to the group purchasing services. Amortization expense related to the value of
our medical practice management clients is amortized on a straight-line basis over a period
of twelve years.
Impairment
and Unoccupied Lease Charges. Impairment charges represent charges recorded for a leased facility no longer being used by the Company
and a non-cancellable vendor contract where the services are no longer being used.
32
Unoccupied
lease charges represent the portion of lease and related costs for vacant space not being utilized by the Company. The Company is marketing
both the unused facility and the unused space for sub-lease.
Interest
and Other Income (Expense). Interest expense consists primarily of interest costs related to our line of credit, term loans and amounts
due in connection with acquisitions, offset by interest income. Other income (expense) results primarily from foreign currency transaction
gains (losses) and income earned from temporary cash investments.
Income
Tax. In preparing our condensed consolidated 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.
Although the Company is forecasting a return to profitability, it incurred losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding future
U.S. taxable income, which makes realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a
valuation allowance has been recorded against all deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements that we believe
affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements presented
in this Report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the
Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Leases:
We
determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use
(“ROU”) assets, operating lease liability (current portion) and operating lease liability (noncurrent portion) in the
condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company does not have any finance leases.
ROU
assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present
value of lease payments over the lease term.
We
use our estimated incremental borrowing rates, which are derived from information available at the lease commencement date, in determining
the present value of lease payments. We give consideration to bank financing arrangements, geographical location and collateralization
of assets when calculating our incremental borrowing rates.
Our
lease term includes options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with a term of
less than 12 months are not recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value
guarantees. For real estate leases, we account for the leased and non-leased components as a single lease component. Some leases include
escalation clauses and termination options that are factored into the determination of the future lease payments when appropriate.
Capitalized
software costs :
All of our software is considered internal use for accounting purposes, as we do not market or sell our
software. As a result, we capitalize certain costs associated with the creation of internally-developed software for internal use.
The total of these costs is recorded in Intangible assets - net in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We
capitalized costs incurred during the application development stage related to our internal use software. Costs incurred during the application
development phase are capitalized only when we believe it is probable that the development will result in new or additional functionality.
The types of costs capitalized during the application development phase consist of employee compensation, employee benefits and employee
stock- based compensation. Costs related to the preliminary project stage and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred.
Capitalized internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life when the asset has been placed
in service for general availability.
33
Significant
judgments related to internally-developed software include determining whether it is probable that projects will result in new or additional
functionality; concluding on when the application development phase starts and ends; and deciding which costs, especially employee compensation
costs, should be capitalized. Additionally, there is judgment applied to the useful lives of capitalized software; we have concluded
that the useful lives for capitalized internally-developed software is three years.
Company
management employs its best estimates and assumptions in determining the appropriateness of the judgments noted above on a project-by-project
basis during initial capitalization as well as subsequent measurement. While we believe that our approach to estimates and judgments
is reasonable, actual results could differ, and such differences could lead to an increase or decrease in expense.
As
of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amounts of internally-developed capitalized software was $8.2
million and $5.5 million, respectively. The increase in the capitalized software costs represents the continued investment in
proprietary technology.
There
have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates from those described in the Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2021.

Other income (expense) primarily represents foreign currency transaction gains and other expense primarily represents foreign currency
transaction losses. These transaction gains and losses result from revaluing intercompany accounts whenever the exchange rate varies
and are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Income
Tax Provision. The provision for income taxes was $213,000
and $212,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021,
respectively compared to income tax benefits of $74,000 and $44,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. As
a result of the Company incurring a tax loss for 2021 and 2020, which has an indefinite life under the current Federal tax rules,
the federal deferred tax liability was offset against the federal net operating loss to the extent allowable in 2021 and 2020. The current
income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $51,000 and $86,000 and primarily relates
to state minimum taxes and foreign income taxes. The Company has incurred cumulative losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding
future U.S. taxable income, which makes realization of a deferred tax losses difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly,
a valuation allowance was recorded against all deferred tax assets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on the 2013 framework and criteria
established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), evaluated the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021 as required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act. The term
“disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls
and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that
it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the
SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure
controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management,
including its principal executive and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management
recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving
their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and
procedures.
Based
on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2021, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company
