SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Operations
Cardiff Lexington Corporation (“Cardiff”)
was originally incorporated on September 3, 1986 in Colorado as Cardiff International Inc. On November 10, 2005, Cardiff merged with Legacy
Card Company, LLC and changed its name to Cardiff Lexington Corporation. On August 27, 2014, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation
under the laws of Florida. On April 13, 2021, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation under the laws of Nevada.
Cardiff is an acquisition holding company focused
on locating undervalued and undercapitalized companies, primarily in the healthcare industry, and providing them capitalization and leadership
to maximize the value and potential of their private enterprises while also providing diversification and risk mitigation for stockholders.
All of Cardiff’s operations are predominantly conducted through, and its income derived from, its Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC (“Nova”)
subsidiary. Its subsidiaries include:
·
Nova, which was acquired on May 31, 2021; and
·
Edge View Properties, Inc. (“Edge View”), which was acquired on July 16, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of Cardiff and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Nova and Edge View (collectively, the “Company”). All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The loss from discontinued operations presented in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations is a part of the execution of a settlement during the three months ended March 31, 2024 that was
previously reached in July 2022 with six previous owners of Red Rock Travel Group, LLC (“Red Rock”), an entity that was discontinued
by the Company in May 2019. Net liabilities from discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31,
2025 and December 31, 2024 include the residual liabilities related to the sale of Platinum Tax Defenders (“Platinum Tax”),
a business previously owned by the Company, which was sold in November 2023. Please refer to Note 11. Discontinued Operations for
further detail.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts and items have been reclassified
in the prior year presentation in the consolidated financial statements to conform to the current presentation in these financial statements.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 9, 2024, the Company effected a 1-for-75,000
reverse split of its outstanding common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock and warrant to purchase common stock were adjusted
to reflect the 1-for-75,000 reverse split, with respective exercise prices of the warrants proportionately increased. The conversion prices
of the outstanding convertible notes and certain series of preferred stock were adjusted to reflect a proportional decrease in the number
of shares of common stock to be issued upon conversion.
All share and per share data throughout these
consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. The total number of authorized
shares of common stock did not change. As a result of the reverse stock split, an amount equal to the decreased value of the common stock
was reclassified from “common stock” to “additional paid-in capital.”
8
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making estimates.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
In the normal course of business, the Company
is in the lien based medical industry providing orthopedic healthcare servicing an uninsured market insulated by a letter of protection
which insulates the Company and insures payment in full from insurance settlements. Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from attorneys
and insurance providers for services provided to patients under the letter of protection. Accounts receivable are recorded at the expected
settlement realization amount, which is less contractual adjustments and an allowance for credit losses. The Company recognizes an allowance
for credit losses for its accounts receivable to present the net amount expected to be collected as of the balance sheet date. This allowance
is determined based on the history of net settlements received, where the net settlement amount is not collected. No collection can happen
if no settlement is reached with the defendant’s insurance company and the plaintiff (the patient) loses the case at trial, or the
case is abandoned, then the Company will not be able to collect on its letter of protection and its receivable will not be collected.
The Company monitors outstanding cases as they develop through ongoing discussions with attorneys, doctors and third-party medical billing
company and additionally monitors settlement realization rates over time. Additionally, the Company considers economic factors and events
or trends expected to affect future collections experience. The no collection history of the Company’s customers is considered in
future assessments of collectability as these patterns are established over a longer period. The Company uses the term collection and
collection rate in its disclosures to describe the historical less than 1% occurrence of not collecting under a contract, which aligns
with the Company’s credit loss accounting under ASC 326.
The Company does not have a significant
exposure to credit losses as it has historically had a less than 1.0% loss rate where the Company received no settlement amount for
its outstanding accounts receivable. Although possible, claims resulting in zero collection upon settlement are rare based on the
Company’s historical experience and has historically been less than 1.0% of its outstanding accounts receivable, thereby
resulting in a collection rate of 99%. The Company uses the loss rate method to record its allowance for credit losses. The Company
applies the loss rate method by reviewing its zero collection history on a quarterly basis and updating its estimates of credit
losses to adjust for changes in loss data. The Company typically collects on its accounts receivable between eighteen and
twenty-four months after recording. The Company does not record an allowance for credit losses based on an aging of its accounts
receivable as the aging of the Company’s receivables do not influence the credit loss rate due to the nature of its business
and the letter of protection. The Company does not adjust its receivables for the effects of a significant financing component at
contract inception as the timing of variable consideration is determined by the settlement, which is outside of the Company’s
control. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $ 249,799
and $ 255,215 ,
respectively. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $ 122,190
for each period, respectively. The Company recognized $ 112,727
and $ 0
of credit loss expense during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is included in selling, general
and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The balance of accounts receivable, net as of
January 1, 2024 was $ 13,305,254 .

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures
for renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property, equipment or leasehold improvements are capitalized. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial
reporting purposes based on the following estimated useful lives:
Schedule of estimated useful lives
Classification
Useful Life
Equipment, furniture, and fixtures
5 - 7 years
Medical equipment
10 years
Leasehold improvements
10 years or lease term, if shorter
Goodwill
Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated for
impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on a reporting
unit basis annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Goodwill
is tested first for impairment based on qualitative factors on an annual basis or in between if an event occurs or circumstances change
that indicate the fair value may be below its carrying amount, otherwise known as a ‘triggering event’. An assessment is made
of these qualitative factors as such to determine whether it is more likely than not the fair value is less than the carry amount, including
goodwill. The annual evaluation is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future
cash flows and operating plans. The Company believes such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace
participants. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did no t recognize any goodwill impairment and noted there
were no such triggering events.
Valuation of Long-lived Assets
In accordance with the provisions of Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets
such as plant and equipment and construction in progress held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is
evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets
are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed
the fair value of the assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s primary source of revenue
is its healthcare subsidiary, which records revenues from providing licensed and/or certified orthopedic procedures. Revenue is recognized
at a point in time in accordance with ASC 606 and at an estimated net settlement realization rate based on gross billed charges. The Company’s
healthcare subsidiary does not have contract liabilities or deferred revenue as there are no amounts prepaid for services. The Company
applies the following five-step ASC 606 model to determine revenue recognition:
·
Identification of a contract with a customer
·
Identification of the performance obligations in the contact
·
Determination of the transaction price
·
Allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations
·
Recognition of revenue when performance obligations are satisfied.
At contract inception, once the contract is determined
to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses services promised within each contract and determines those that are a performance
obligation and assesses whether each promised service is distinct.
10
The Company’s contracts contain a single
performance obligation (providing orthopedic services), as the promise to transfer the individual services is not separately identifiable
from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, as a result, the entire transaction price is allocated to this single
performance obligation.
Accordingly, the Company recognizes net revenue
when the patient receives orthopedic care services. The Company’s patient service contracts generally have performance obligations
which are satisfied at a point in time. The performance obligation is for onsite or off-site care provided. Patient service contracts
are generally fixed-price, and the transaction price is in the contract.
In determining net revenue to record under ASC
606, the Company must estimate the transaction price, including estimates of variable consideration in the contract at inception. In order
to estimate variable consideration, the Company uses established billings rates (also described as “gross charges”) for the
procedures being performed, however, the billing rates are not the same as actual amounts recovered for the Company’s healthcare
subsidiary. They generally do not reflect what the Company is ultimately paid by the customer, insurance carriers and other payors,
and therefore are not reported in the consolidated financial statements at that rate. The Company is typically paid amounts based on established
charges per procedure with guidance from the annually updated Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) guidelines that designates
relative value units and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code. This gross charge is discounted
to reflect the percentage paid to the Company using a modifier recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay,
and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee. These adjustments are considered variable consideration under
ASC 606 and are deducted from the calculated fee to arrive at the net transaction price. The Company also estimates changes in the contract
price as a result of price concessions, changes to deductibles, co-pays and other contractual adjustments to determine the eventual settlement
amount the Company expects to receive. The Company uses the term settlement realization in its disclosures to describe the amount of cash
the Company expects to receive based on its estimate of the transaction price under the expected value method of ASC 606.
Where appropriate, the Company utilizes the expected
value method to determine the appropriate amount for estimates of variable consideration, which has been based on a historical 24-month
lookback of its actual settlement realization rates. The estimates of reserves established for variable consideration reflect current
contractual requirements, the Company’s historical experience, specific known market events and trends, industry data and forecasted
patient data and settlement patterns. Settlement realization patterns are assessed based on actual settlements and based on expected settlement
realization trends obtained from discussions with attorneys, doctors and our third-party medical billing company. Settlement amounts are
negotiated, and prolonged settlement negotiations are not indicative of a greater likelihood of reduced settlement realization or zero
settlement.
The Company may accept a lower settlement realization
rate in order to receive faster payment. The Company obtains information about expected settlement realization trends from discussions
with doctors and attorneys and its third-party medical billing company vendor, which handles settlement claims and negotiations. Settlement
amounts are presented to the Company’s third-party medical billing company vendor.
Settlement rates of 49% or higher based on gross
billed amounts are typically accepted without further negotiation. Proposed settlement rates below 49% are negotiated when possible and
longer negotiations typically result in higher settlement rates. If the Company accepts a lower settlement realization rate in order to
receive payments more quickly, the Company considers that a price concession and estimates these concessions at contract inception. The
various forms of variable consideration described above included in the transaction price may be constrained and are included in net revenue
only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in
a future period. The Company has not constrained any of its estimates of variable consideration for any of the periods presented.
Service Fees – Net (PIP)
The Company generates services fees from performing
various procedures on the date the services are performed. These services primarily include slip and falls as well as smaller nominal
Non Personal Injury Protection (“PIP”) services. As described above, these revenues are based on established insurance billing
rates, less allowances for contractual adjustments and uncollectible amounts. These contractual adjustments vary by insurance company
and self-pay patients. The Company computes these contractual and other adjustments based on its historical settlement realization experience.
Completing the paperwork for each case and preparing it for billing takes approximately ten business days after a procedure is performed.
The majority of claims are then filed electronically except for those remaining insurance carriers requiring paper filing. An initial
response is usually received within four weeks from electronic filing and up to six weeks from paper filing. Responses may be a payment,
a denial, or a request for additional information. The Company’s healthcare revenues are generated from professional medical billings
including facility and anesthesia services. With respect to facility and anesthesia services, the Company is the primary obligor as the
facility and anesthesia services are considered part of one integrated performance obligation.
11
The Company satisfies performance obligations
as services are performed and then billed to the patient. Payment in most cases is made by an attorney for such services to our patients
which are due upon final settlement of patients claims. During the claims process, legal counsel warranties such claim through the letter
of protection, which is sent to the Company, as a medical provider, on behalf of the client patient. This letter states that the attorney
is responsible for paying the client’s medical bills when the case is fully developed and settles. The medical professional agrees
to provide treatment to the injured person and refrain from attempting to collect payment as it is developing and until the case is resolved.
Once the personal injury case is finalized with the insurance company, the attorney pays the outstanding medical bills from the settlement.
Settlement Rates
Prior to fiscal year 2024, the Company historically
realized a 49% settlement rate from total gross billed charges. Accordingly, the Company had historically recognized net healthcare service
revenue as 49% of gross billed amounts. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company underwent efforts to accelerate cash
settlement of its accounts receivable to generate cash flow for operations. The Company did this by shortening its settlement negotiations
with insurance companies and accepting lower settlement amounts. Additionally, during 2024, the Company completed a thorough review of
its third-party billing data, including reviewing historical reports and new reporting methods as a part of its updated analysis. Based
upon this review, it was determined that a 24-month lookback period should be used in the analysis of the Company’s historical settlement
realization rates. As a result of the new efforts to accelerate cash settlement during the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company
realized a 42.9% average settlement rate of its gross billed charges during this time frame, which were historically recorded in accounts
receivable and revenue at 49% of gross billings. Accordingly, the Company recorded reductions to net revenue of $ 339,834 for the three
months ended March 31, 2024. The Company will continue to evaluate its estimate of its settlement realization rates in the future, which
will include a monthly review of the Company’s trailing 24-month historical settlement realization rate, along with estimates of
current and pending settlements through ongoing discussions with attorneys, doctors and the Company’s third-party medical billing
company in order to determine its variable consideration under ASC 606 and the net transaction price. The Company will update its settlement
realization rate estimate used in determining its accounts receivable and revenue each quarter based on this review.
Contract Fees (Non-PIP)
The Company has contract fees for amounts earned
from its Non PIP related procedures, typically car accidents, and are settled on a contingency basis. Prior to April 2023, these cases
were sold to a factor who bears the risk of economic benefit or loss. Generally, the sale of these cases to a third-party factor resulted
in an approximate 54% reduction from the accounts receivables amounts. After selling patient cases to the factor, any additional funds
settled by the Company were remitted to the factor. The Company evaluated the factored adjustments considering the actual factored amounts
per patient on a quarterly interval, and the reductions from accounts receivable that were factored were recorded in finance charges as
other expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. As a result of the Company’s eighteen to twenty-four month settlement
realization timeframe, the Company has an accrued liability resulting from the settlement of receivables sold to the third-party factors
which fluctuates as settlements are made and remitted to those third-party factors. These accounts receivables sold to these third-party
factors are not included in the Company’s financial statements accounts receivable balance once sold and therefore are not part
of the assessment of the net realizable value of accounts receivable. The Company ceased factoring of accounts receivable in the first
quarter of 2023.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising
costs are included as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity.
The Company recognized advertising and marketing expense of $ 90,169 and $ 82,051 for the for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and
2024, respectively.
12
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement
date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment
associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions
developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about
market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair
value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy
are described below:
Level 1
Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2
Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level 3
Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
The Company accounts for its series N senior convertible
preferred stock, series R convertible preferred stock, and series X senior convertible preferred stock subject to possible redemption
in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares are classified
as temporary equity within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation
in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under the recognition and measurement principles of
the fair value recognition provisions of section 718-10-30 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC. Pursuant
to paragraph 718-10-30-6 of the FASB ASC, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance
of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument
issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
The measurement date used to determine the fair
value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable
that performance will occur.
Generally, all forms of share-based payments,
including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on
the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.
The expense resulting from share-based payments
is recorded in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are determined in accordance with
ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years
in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how
companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to
be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely
than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be
measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the
tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
13
As of March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did
no t have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
Income (Loss) per Share
FASB ASC Subtopic 260, Earnings Per Share ,
provides for the calculation of “Basic” and “Diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed
by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares
of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been
outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Income available to common stockholders consists of net (loss) income
less any preferred stock dividends. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, warrants, and debts convertible
into common stock. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants are reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application
of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock
can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. The diluted effect of debt convertibles is reflected utilizing
the if converted method.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and
liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company had sustained recurring operating losses since its inception
and has an accumulated deficit of $ 73,645,307 as of March 31, 2025. These factors raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to
the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if
the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusions. Management
is in continuous discussions with prospective investors and believes the raising of capital will allow the Company to fund its cash flow
shortfalls and pursue new acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital from debt
or equity transactions or from operations in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to it. Should the Company be unable to raise
sufficient funds, it may be required to curtail its operating plans. In addition, if overall Company expenses increase, the Company may
need to implement cost reductions. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis,
or at all, in the future. Should the Company not be able to raise sufficient funds, it may cause cessation of operations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2023-07, “Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“Topic 280”) in November 2023. The
amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. Topic 280 improves “reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced
disclosures about significant segment expenses.” In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances
in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities
with a single reportable segment, and contain other disclosure requirements. The purpose of the amendments is to enable “investors
to better understand an entity’s overall performance” and assess “potential future cash flows.” There were no
material impacts on the consolidated financial statements at adoption.
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
81540).” The ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The
amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within that period. The FASB also specified
that an entity must adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year and is not permitted to adopt the guidance in an
interim period, other than the first interim period of their fiscal year. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible
debt and convertible preferred stock instruments and makes certain disclosure amendments to improve the information provided to users.
There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements at adoption.

Promissory Note – Settlement Agreement
On June 11, 2024, the Company entered into a settlement
agreement and release of claims with the holder of 165 shares of series R convertible preferred stock and certain convertible promissory
notes. Pursuant to the settlement agreement and release of claims, the holder agreed to cancel its shares of series R convertible preferred
stock and convertible promissory notes in exchange for a new fixed amount settlement promissory note in the principal amount of $ 535,000 .
16
The note does not bear interest and requires
fixed payments as follows: (i)
if the Company raises at least $5 million but less than $6 million in its planned underwritten public offering (the “Offering”),
then it must pay $250,000 on the closing date of the Offering, with payments of $125,000, $125,000 and $35,000 to follow on the 90 th ,
180 th , and 240 th days following the closing of the Offering, respectively; (ii) if the Company raises at least
$6 million but less than $7 million in the Offering, then it must pay $390,000 on the closing date of the Offering and $145,000 on the
90 th day following the closing of the Offering; and (iii) if the Company raises at least $7 million in the Offering,
then it must repay the entire principal amount on the closing date of the Offering. If the Offering is not completed by August 15, 2024,
then the Company is required to pay $25,000 on such date and to continue making payments of $25,000 on each monthly anniversary thereof
until the entire principal amount is repaid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company abandons the Offering and conducts
a new public offering thereafter, then the Company is required to make a payment of $100,000 on the closing date of such other public
offering, a second payment of $100,000 on the 90 th day following the closing of such offering and $35,000 each month thereafter
until the entire principal amount is repaid in full. If any portion of the principal amount remains unpaid on the second (2 nd )
anniversary of the date of the note, it shall become immediately due and payable on such date. The Company may prepay the entire principal
amount at any time without penalty. The note is unsecured and contains customary events of default for a loan of this type. Upon an event
of default, interest would automatically begin to accrue at a simple interest rate of ten percent per annum. This transaction was accounted
for as a debt extinguishment and a gain on settlement of $ 78,834
was recorded to the unaudited, consolidated statement of operations for quarter ended June 30, 2024, in accordance with FASB Topic
470 Borrower’s Accounting for Debt Modifications. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company paid $ 75,000
against the outstanding principal balance. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the remaining principal balance was $ 335,000
and $ 410,000 , respectively.
Loans and Notes Payable – Unrelated Party
On March 12, 2009, the Company issued a debenture
in the principal amount of $20,000. The debenture bore interest at 12% per year and matured on September 12, 2009. The balance of the
debenture was $ 10,989 at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The accrued interest of the debenture was $ 9,195 and $ 8,869 at March 31,

$ 0 , respectively.
Line of Credit
On September 29, 2023, the Company and Nova entered
into a two-year revolving purchase and security agreement with DML HC Series, LLC (“DML”) to sell, with recourse, Nova’s
accounts receivables for a revolving financing up to a maximum advance amount of $ 4.5 million. A review is performed on a quarterly basis
to assess the adequacy of the maximum amount. If mutually agreed upon by the Company and DML, the maximum amount may be increased. On
April 24, 2024, the Company and Nova entered into amendment No. 1 with DML which increased the maximum advance amount to $ 8,000,000 and
defined the discount fee equal to 2.25 % per purchase and claims balance forward on new purchases with a minimum fee to now be $ 10,000 .
On June 11, 2024, the Company and Nova entered into amendment No. 2 with DML which further increased the maximum advance amount to $ 11,000,000 .
On December 27, 2024, the Company and Nova entered into amendment No. 3 with DML which further increased the maximum advance amount to
$ 15,000,000 . As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had $ 10,210,485 and $ 8,645,991 , respectively, outstanding balance
against the revolving receivable line of credit. The unused line of credit balance as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $ 4,789,515
and $ 6,354,009 , respectively. The accrued interest related to the line of credit was $ 411,300 and $ 315,031 as of March 31, 2025 and December
31, 2024, respectively. The revolving purchase and security agreement includes discounts recorded as interest expense on each funding
and matures on September 29, 2025.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases
ASC 842, “Leases”, requires that a
lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial
position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying
asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by
class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The Company adopted ASC 842, January 1, 2020, using the
effective date method and elected certain practical expedients allowing the Company not to reassess:
·
whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease;
·
lease classification for expired or existing leases; and
·
whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under Topic 842.
The Company also made the accounting policy decision
not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.
The Company leases twelve medical facilities and
one vehicle as operating leases as of March 31, 2025. The Company recorded operating lease expenses of $ 119,071 and $ 100,362 for the three
months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
The Company has operating leases with future commitments

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Company may become involved
in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties,
and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business. Management is
not currently aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial condition, or operating results.
15.
INCOME TAXES
At March 31, 2025, the Company had federal and
state net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $ 21.2 million that expire in various years through the year 2040. Due to current
period losses and carryforwards of past net operating losses, there is no provision for current federal or state income taxes for the
three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects
of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for
federal and state income tax purposes. The Company has a deferred tax asset that consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated
using federal and state effective tax rates. Because of the Company’s lack of past earnings history, the deferred tax asset has
been fully offset by a valuation allowance.
16.
SEGMENT REPORTING
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had two reportable
operating segments as determined by management using the “management approach” as defined by the authoritative guidance on
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information .
(1)
Healthcare (Nova)
(2)
Real Estate (Edge View)
These segments are a result of differences in
the nature of the products and services sold. Their operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision
maker group, which consists of the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Corporate administration
costs, which include, but are not limited to, general accounting, human resources, legal and credit and collections, are partially allocated
to the two operating segments.
The healthcare segment provides a full range of
diagnostic and surgical services for injuries and disorders of the skeletal system and associated bones, joints, tendons, muscles, ligaments,
and nerves.
The real estate segment consists of Edge View,
a real estate company that owns five (5) acres zoned medium density residential (MDR) with 12 lots already platted, six (6) acres zoned
high-density residential (HDR) that can be platted in various configurations to meet current housing needs, and twelve (12) acres
zoned in Lemhi County as Agriculture that is available for further annexation into the City of Salmon for development, as well as a common
area for landowners to view wildlife, provide access to the Salmon River and fishing in a two (2) acre pond.
36
The accounting policies of the segments are the
same as those described in Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Management uses revenues, cost of sales, operating
expenses, income (loss) from subsidiaries and income (loss) before taxes to evaluate and measure its subsidiaries’ success. To help
the segments achieve optimal operating performance, management retains the prior owners of the subsidiaries and allows them to do what
they do best, which is run the business. Additionally, management monitors key metrics primarily revenues and income from operations in
order to allocate resources accordingly.
