Note
1. Interim Financial Reporting
Basis
of presentation: Electromed, Inc. (the “Company”) develops, manufactures and markets innovative airway clearance
products that apply High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (“HFCWO”) therapy in pulmonary care for patients of all
ages. The Company markets its products in the U.S. to the home health care and institutional markets for use by patients in personal
residences, hospitals and clinics. The Company also sells internationally both directly and through distributors. International
sales were approximately $297,000 and $455,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Since its inception,
the Company has operated in a single industry segment: developing, manufacturing and marketing medical equipment.
The
accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial
position and results of operations as required by Regulation S-X. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information
and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual reports. This interim report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 (“fiscal 2020”).
Impacts
of COVID-19 on the Company’s business:
The
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business remains uncertain and its effects on its operational and financial
performance will depend in large part on future developments, which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Such future developments
include, but are not limited to, the duration, scope and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic in geographic areas the Company operates
or in which its patients live, actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact, the impact on governmental healthcare programs
and budgets, the development and distribution of treatments or vaccines, and the resumption of widespread economic activity. Due
to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and rapidly evolving situation, the Company is unable to predict with confidence
the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its future operations. For a more detailed discussion see “Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q.
A
summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies follows:
Use
of estimates. Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing the unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in accordance
with U.S. GAAP. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. The
Company believes the critical accounting policies that require the most significant assumptions and judgments in the preparation
of its unaudited Condensed Financial Statements include revenue recognition and the related estimation of variable consideration,
allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, share-based compensation and its warranty liability.
Net
income per common share. Net income is presented on a per share basis for both basic and diluted common shares. Basic net
income per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding
any restricted stock awards which have not vested. The diluted net income per common share calculation includes outstanding restricted
stock grants and assumes that all stock options were exercised and converted into common stock at the beginning of the period,
unless their effect would be anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share
because their impact was anti-dilutive was 52,017 and zero for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and
were 52,017 and 134,100 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Note
2. Revenues
Revenue
is measured based on consideration specified in the contract with a customer, adjusted for any applicable estimates of variable
consideration and other factors affecting the transaction price, including non-cash consideration, consideration paid or payable
to customers and significant financing components. Revenue from all customers is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied
by transferring control of a distinct good or service to a customer, as further described below under Performance obligations
and transaction price .
Individual
promised goods and services in a contract are considered a performance obligation and accounted for separately if the individual
good or service is distinct (i.e., the customer can benefit from the good or service on its own or with other resources that are
readily available to the customer and the good or service is separately identifiable from other promises in the arrangement).
If an arrangement includes multiple performance obligations, the consideration is allocated between the performance obligations
in proportion to their estimated standalone selling price, unless discounts or variable consideration is attributable to one or
more but not all the performance obligations. Costs related to products delivered are recognized in the period incurred, unless
criteria for capitalization of costs under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-40, “Other Assets and
Deferred Costs” (“ASC 340”), or other applicable guidance are met.
The
Company includes shipping and handling fees in net revenues. Shipping and handling costs associated with the shipment of the Company’s
SmartVest® Airway Clearance System (“SmartVest System”) after control has transferred to a customer are accounted
for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of revenues in the Condensed Statements of Operations.
The
timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in accounts receivable on the Condensed Balance Sheets as
further described below under Accounts receivable and Contract assets .

Revenues
in the Company’s home care, home care distributor, and international markets are recognized at a point in time when control
passes to the customer upon product shipment or delivery. Revenues in the Company’s institutional market include sales recognized
at a point in time upon shipment or delivery as well as revenues recognized over time under operating leases.
Performance
obligations and transaction price. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service
to the customer and is the unit of account under ASC 606, “Revenue From Contracts With Customers” (“ASC 606”).
A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation in proportion to the standalone selling
price for each and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance
obligations and the timing or method of revenue recognition in each of the Company’s markets are discussed below:
Home
care market . In the Company’s home care market, its customers are patients who use the SmartVest System. The various
models of the SmartVest System are comprised of three main components - a generator, a vest and a connecting hose - that are sold
together as an integrated unit. Accordingly, in contracts within the home care market, the Company regards the SmartVest System
to be a single performance obligation.
6
The
Company makes available to its home care patients limited post-sale services that are not material in the context of the contracts,
either individually or taken together, and therefore does not consider them to be performance obligations. The costs associated
with the services are accrued and expensed when the related revenues are recognized. As such, transactions in the home care market
consist of a single performance obligation: the SmartVest System.
Home
care patients generally will rely on third-party payers, including commercial payers and governmental payers such as Medicare,
Medicaid and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to cover and reimburse all or part of the cost of the SmartVest System. The
third-party payers’ reimbursement programs fall into three types, distinguished by the differences in the timing of payments
from the payer, consisting of either (i) outright sale, in which payment is received from the payer based on standard terms, (ii)
capped installment sale, under which the SmartVest System is sold for a series of payments that are capped not to exceed a prescribed
or negotiated amount over a period of time or (iii) installment sale, under which the SmartVest System is paid for over a period
of several months as long as the patient continues to use the SmartVest System.
Regardless
of the type of transaction, provided criteria for an enforceable contract are met, it is the Company’s long-standing business
practice to regard all home care agreements as transferring control to the patient upon shipment or delivery, in spite of possible
payment cancellation under government or commercial programs where the payer is controlling the payment over specified time periods.
For home care sales that feature installment payments, the ultimate amount of consideration received from Medicare, Medicaid or
commercial payers can be significantly less than expected if the contract is terminated due to changes in the patient’s
status, including insurance coverage, hospitalization, death or otherwise becoming unable to use the SmartVest System. However,
once delivered to a patient who needs the SmartVest System, the patient is under no obligation to return the SmartVest System
should payments be terminated as a result of the described contingencies. As a result, the Company’s product sales qualify
for point in time revenue recognition. Control transfers to the patient, and revenue is recognized, upon shipment of the SmartVest
System. At this point, physical possession and the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the patient and
either a current or future right to payment is triggered, as further discussed under Accounts receivable and Contract
assets below.
The
Company’s contractually stated transaction prices in the home care market are generally set by the terms of the contracts
negotiated with insurance companies or by government programs. The transaction price for the Company’s products may be further
impacted by variable consideration. ASC 606 requires the Company to adjust the transaction price at contract inception and throughout
the contract duration for the estimated value of payments to be received from insurance payers based on historical experience
and other available information, subject to the constraint on estimates of variable consideration. Transactions requiring estimates
of variable consideration primarily include (i) capped installment payments, which are subject to the third-party payer’s
termination due to changes in insurance coverage, death or the patient’s discontinued use of the SmartVest System, (ii)
contracts under appeal and (iii) patient responsibility amounts for deductibles, coinsurance, copays and other similar payments.
Although
estimates may be made on a contract-by-contract basis, whenever possible, the Company uses all available information, including
historical collection patterns, to estimate variable consideration for portfolios of contracts. The Company’s estimates
of variable consideration consist of amounts it may receive from insurance providers in excess of its initial revenue estimate
due to patients meeting deductibles or coinsurance during the payment duration, changes to a patient’s insurance status,
changes in an insurance allowable, claims in appeals with Medicare and amounts received directly from patients for their allowable
or coinsurance. The Company believes it has representative historical information to estimate the amount of variable consideration
in relevant portfolios considering the significant experience it has with each portfolio and the similarity of patient accounts
within a portfolio. The analysis includes steps to ensure that revenue recognized on a portfolio basis does not result in a material
difference when compared with an individual contract approach. The Company also leverages its historical experience and all available
relevant information for each portfolio of contracts to minimize the risk its estimates used to arrive at the transaction price
will result in a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized when the uncertainty associated with the
variable consideration is subsequently resolved. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s
judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur.
For
example, for contracts in which the Company believes the criteria for reimbursement under government or commercial payer contracts
have been met but for which coverage is unconfirmed or payments are under appeal, the Company has significant observable evidence
of relatively consistent claims recovery experience over the prior three to five years. The Company believes the low volatility
in historical claims approval rates for populations of patients whose demographics are similar to those of current patients provides
reliable predictive value in arriving at estimates of variable consideration in such contracts. Similarly, historical payment
trends for recovery of claims subject to payer installments and payments from patients have remained relatively consistent over
the past five years. No significant changes in patient demographics or other relevant factors have occurred that would limit the
predictive value of such payment trends
in estimating variable consideration for current contracts. As a result, the Company believes its estimates of variable consideration
are generally not subject to the risk of significant revenue reversal.
7
For
each type of variable consideration discussed above, there are a large number of contracts with similar characteristics with a
wide range of possible transaction prices. For that reason, the Company uses the probability-weighted expected value method provided
under ASC 606 to estimate variable consideration.
The
Company often receives payment from third-party payers for the SmartVest System sales over a period of time that may exceed one
year. Despite these extended payment terms, no significant financing component is deemed to exist because the purpose of such
terms is not to provide financing to the patient, the payer or the Company. Rather, the extended payment terms are mandated by
the government or commercial insurance programs; the fundamental purpose of which is to avoid paying the full purchase price of
equipment that may potentially be used by the patient for only a short period of time.
Home
care distributors. Sales to distributors, who sell direct to patients, are made at fixed contract prices and may include
tiered pricing structures or volume-based rebates which offer more favorable pricing once certain volumes are achieved per the
negotiated contract. The distributor’s purchases accumulate to give the distributor a right to a higher discount on purchases
in excess of the specified level within the contract period. As a result, to the extent the Company expects the distributor to
exceed the specified volume of purchases in the annual period, it recognizes revenue at a blended rate based on estimated total
annual volume and sales revenue. This effectively defers a portion of the transaction price on initial purchases below the specified
volumes for recognition when the higher discount is earned on purchases in excess of specified volumes. Transfer of control of
the products occurs upon shipment or delivery to the distributor, as applicable.
Institutional
market. The Company’s institutional sales are made to hospitals and home health care centers, pulmonary rehabilitation
centers and other clinics. Sales to these institutions are negotiated with the individual institution or with group purchasing
organizations, with payments received directly from the institution. No insurance reimbursement is involved. Generators are either
sold or leased to the institutions and associated hoses and wraps (used in institutional settings rather than vests) are sold
separately. Accordingly, each product is distinct and considered a separate performance obligation in sales to institutional customers.
The agreements with institutions fall into two main types, distinguished by differences in the timing of transfer of control and
timing of payments:
● Outright
sale – Under these transactions, the Company sells its products for a prescribed
or negotiated price. Transfer of control of the product, and associated revenue recognition,
occurs at the time of shipment and payment is made within normal credit terms, usually
within 30 days.
● Rental
– Under these transactions, the customer obtains a right to use the product for
a period of time in exchange for consideration as usage occurs. These transactions are
treated as operating leases and revenue is recognized ratably over the applicable rental
period. Lease revenue recognized during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020
was zero and approximately $6,000, respectively.
International
market. Sales to international markets are made directly to a number of independent distributors at fixed contract prices
that are not subject to further adjustments for variable consideration. Transfer of control of the products occurs upon shipment
or delivery to the distributor, as applicable.
Product
warranty. The Company offers warranties on its products. These warranties are assurance type warranties not sold on a standalone
basis or are otherwise considered immaterial in the context of the contract, and therefore are not considered distinct performance
obligations under ASC 606. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranties and records a liability in
the amount of such costs at the time the product is sold.
Accounts
receivable. Accounts receivable include amounts billed to customers and third-party payers, for which only the passage of
time is required before payment of consideration is due. Amounts due are stated at their net estimated realizable value.
Contract
assets. Contract assets include amounts recognized as revenue that are estimates of variable consideration for Medicare appeals
where the final determination of the insurance coverage amount is dependent on future approval of an appeal, or when the consideration
due to the Company is dependent on a future event such as the patient meeting a deductible prior to the Company’s claim
being processed by the payer. Contract assets are classified as current as amounts will turn into accounts receivable and be collected
during the Company’s normal business operating cycle. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable when the right
to receive payment is unconditional.
Incremental
costs to obtain a contract. Sales incentives paid to sales representatives are eligible for capitalization as they are
incremental costs that would not have been incurred without entering into a specific sales arrangement and are recoverable
through the expected margin on the transaction. However, the recovery period is less than one year as the performance
obligation is satisfied upon shipment or delivery. Consequently, the Company applies the practical expedient provided by ASC
340 and expenses sales incentives as incurred. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in
the Condensed Statements of Operations.

5. Warranty Liability
The
Company provides a lifetime warranty on its products to the prescribed patient for sales within the U.S. and a three-year warranty
for all institutional sales and sales to individuals outside the U.S. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under
its warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time the product is shipped. Factors that affect the Company’s
warranty liability include the number of units shipped, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, the product’s
useful life and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts
the amounts as necessary.
Changes

6. Income Taxes
Income
tax expense was estimated at $29,000 and $555,000 and the effective tax rate was 11.5% and 22.0% for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 2021, respectively. Estimated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 included a $37,000
discrete tax benefit as a result of lower federal and state taxes than what was originally estimated in the Company’s fiscal
2020 tax provision. The net impact of this discrete event decreased the estimated effective tax rates by 14.6% during the three
months ended March 31, 2021. Estimated income tax expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 included a $37,000 discrete
tax benefit as a result of lower federal and state taxes than what was originally estimated in the Company’s fiscal 2020
tax provision and a $32,000 discrete tax benefit related to the exercise of stock options. The net impact of these discrete events
decreased the estimated effective tax rates by 2.7% during the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
Income
tax expense was estimated at $294,000 and $1,087,000, and the effective tax rate was 31.0% and 27.6%, for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 2020, respectively. Estimated income tax expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 included a $30,000 discrete
tax expense as a result of higher federal and state taxes than what was originally estimated in the Company’s tax provision
for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, and a $13,000 discrete tax benefit related to the exercise of stock options. The net
impact of these discrete events increased the estimated effective tax rates by 0.4% during the nine months ended March 31, 2020.
Note
7. Financing Arrangements
The
Company has a credit facility that provides for a revolving line of credit and a term loan. Effective December 18, 2020, the Company
renewed its $2,500,000 revolving line of credit. There was no outstanding principal balance on the line of credit as of March
31, 2021 or June 30, 2020. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit, if any, accrues at the prime rate (3.25% at March
31, 2021) less 1.00% and is payable monthly. The amount eligible for borrowing on the line of credit is limited to the lesser
of $2,500,000 or 57.00% of eligible accounts receivable and the line of credit expires on December 18, 2021, if not renewed. At
March 31, 2021, the maximum $2,500,000 was eligible for borrowing. Payment obligations under the line of credit, if any, are secured
by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company.
The
documents governing the line of credit contain certain financial and nonfinancial covenants that include a minimum tangible net
worth covenant of not less than $10,125,000 and restrictions on the Company’s ability to incur certain additional indebtedness
or pay dividends.

Note
8. Share-Based Compensation
The
Company’s share-based compensation plans are described in Note 8 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal
2020. Share-based compensation expense was approximately $756,000 and $677,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020,
respectively. This expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Statements of Operations.
As of March 31, 2021, approximately $921,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non- vested equity awards was
expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 0.8 years.

2. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The
following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our
unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and related notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, and our audited financial statements and related notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 (“fiscal 2020”).
Overview
Electromed,
Inc. (“we,” “our,” “us,” “Electromed” or the “Company”) develops and
provides innovative airway clearance products applying High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (“HFCWO”) technologies
in pulmonary care for patients of all ages.
11
We
manufacture, market and sell products that provide HFCWO, including the SmartVest® Airway Clearance System (“SmartVest
System”) that includes our newest generation SmartVest SQL® and previous generation SV2100, and related products, to
patients with compromised pulmonary function. The SmartVest SQL is smaller, quieter and lighter than our previous product, with
enhanced programmability and ease of use. Our products are sold in both the home health care market and the institutional market
for use by patients in hospitals, which we refer to as “institutional sales.” The SmartVest SQL has been sold in the
domestic home care market since 2014. In 2015, we launched the SmartVest SQL into institutional and certain international markets.
In June 2017, we announced the launch of the SmartVest SQL with SmartVest Connect™ wireless technology, which allows data
connection between physicians and patients to track therapy performance and collaborate in treatment decisions. SmartVest Connect
is currently available to pediatric and cystic fibrosis patients and was made available to certain targeted adult pulmonary clinics
starting in November 2017. Since 2000, we have marketed the SmartVest System and its predecessor products to patients suffering
from cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis and repeated episodes of pneumonia. Additionally, we offer our products to a patient population
that includes neuromuscular disorders such as cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophies, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (“ALS”),
the combination of emphysema and chronic bronchitis commonly known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (“COPD”),
and patients with post-surgical complications or who are ventilator dependent or have other conditions involving excess secretion
and impaired mucus transport.
The
SmartVest System is often eligible for reimbursement from major private insurance providers, health maintenance organizations
(“HMOs”), state Medicaid systems, and the federal Medicare system, which we believe is an important consideration
for patients considering an HFCWO course of therapy. For domestic sales, the SmartVest System may be reimbursed under the Medicare-assigned
billing code (E0483) for HFCWO devices if the patient has cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis (including chronic bronchitis or COPD
that has resulted in a diagnosis of bronchiectasis), or any one of certain enumerated neuromuscular diseases, and can demonstrate
that another less expensive physical or mechanical treatment did not adequately mobilize retained secretions. Private payers consider
a variety of sources, including Medicare, as guidelines in setting their coverage policies and payment amounts.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
For
a description of our critical accounting policies, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements,
including the unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, see Note 1 to our unaudited Condensed
Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part II, Item 7, and Note 1 to our audited
financial statements included in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2020.
Some
of our accounting policies require us to exercise significant judgment in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating
financial statements. Such judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Among other factors, these judgments are
based upon our historical experience, known trends in our industry, terms of existing contracts and other information from outside
sources, as appropriate. We believe the critical accounting policies that require the most significant assumptions and judgments
in the preparation of our financial statements, including the unaudited Condensed Financial Statements contained in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, include: revenue recognition and the estimation of variable consideration, allowance for doubtful accounts,
inventory obsolescence, share-based compensation and warranty liability.
Impacts
of COVID-19 on Our Business and Operations
In
March 2020, the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 as a global pandemic and the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services designated COVID-19 as a public health emergency. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business remains uncertain
and its effects on our operational and financial performance will depend in part on future developments, which cannot be reasonably
estimated at this time. Such future developments include, but are not limited to, the duration, scope and severity of the COVID-19
pandemic in geographic areas in which we operate or in which our patients live, actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact,
the impact on governmental healthcare programs and budgets, the development and distribution of treatments or vaccines, and the
resumption of widespread economic activity. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and evolving situation, we are
unable to predict with confidence the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations.
12
The
COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption and has negatively impacted business
in our industry since March 2020. In particular, certain healthcare facilities and clinics restricted access to their clinicians,
reducing patient consultations and treatments, or closed temporarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which reduced home care referrals
and resulted in certain institutional orders being postponed. We believe that these and other responses by healthcare systems
have had a negative impact on our operating results and cash flows during the third quarter of our fiscal year ending June 30,
2021 (“fiscal 2021”). During the first half of fiscal 2021, as state and local government restrictions began to ease
in jurisdictions in which we operate, we observed increased patient face-to-face re-engagement with clinicians and an increased
number of clinics allowing face-to-face access by our sales team. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, referrals declined
early in the quarter compared to prior period due to reduced patient face-to-face interactions with clinicians, likely due to
COVID-19 cases increasing as well as a desire for patients to be vaccinated before visiting healthcare facilities. Referral growth
increased significantly in March compared to prior year, as we benefited from increased patient visits to clinics and greater
access for our sales representatives, restrictions were further lifted, and vaccines started to become more widely administered
throughout the country. Our sales team continues to utilize a hybrid sales process of virtual and face- to-face clinician interaction
with strict adherence to specific clinic and healthcare system safety protocols.
We
estimate that institutional revenue has been negatively impacted since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic as hospitals and long-term
care facilities have adjusted their operating protocols and procurement management.
We
believe that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our home care and institutional business will likely continue during the remainder
of fiscal 2021. We have experienced improvement in our home care referrals and approvals for the three months ended March 31,
2021 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020; however, if COVID-19 infection rates increase and federal, state and
local restrictions on commerce, stay-at-home orders or other restrictions on businesses are reinstated, then such measures could
have a material adverse effect on our business.
We
believe that the COVID-19 pandemic’s adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition will be
primarily driven by: the severity and duration of the pandemic; its impact on the U.S. healthcare system and economy; and the
timing, scope and effectiveness of U.S. governmental responses to the pandemic.
We
have observed some minor changes to our supply chain timelines and increased product costs, but we have not experienced any material
adverse impacts on our supply chain or product costs at this time. It is possible the COVID-19 pandemic could have an adverse
impact on our supply chain in the future, including impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that other businesses
and applicable governments are taking. A reduction or interruption in any of our manufacturing processes could have a material
adverse effect on our business. Any significant increases to our product costs could reduce our gross margins.
We
have also taken measures to ensure the safety of our employees and to comply with applicable governmental orders. We consider
our business to be essential under applicable governmental orders due primarily to our role in manufacturing and supplying needed
medical devices to patients with respiratory related issues and have therefore continued to operate during the government restrictions
put in place in response to the pandemic.
In
response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the U.S. federal government’s declaration of a public health emergency, the Centers
for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) implemented a number of temporary rule changes and waivers to allow prescribers
to best treat patients during the period of the public health emergency. These waivers are retroactively effective to March 1,
2020. Clinical indications and documentation typically required will not be enforced for respiratory related products including
the SmartVest System (solely with respect to Medicare patients). The minimum documentation now requires a valid order and documentation
of a respiratory related diagnosis. Face-to-face and in-person requirements for respiratory devices are being waived during such
period. The CMS waiver was recently extended in conjunction with the extension of the federal public health emergency for an additional
90-day period beginning on April 21, 2021.

Home care revenue .
Home care revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $8,163,000, representing an increase of approximately
$329,000, or 4.2%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. For the nine months ended March 31, 2021, home care revenue was
approximately $24,529,000, representing an increase of approximately $1,534,000, or 6.7%, compared to the same period in fiscal
2020. The revenue increase compared to the prior year periods was primarily due to an increase in referrals and approvals. The
increase in referrals compared to the prior year periods was due to the sales team adapting to a hybrid virtual and face-to-face
selling model implemented to combat clinic access limitations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, benefits of the CMS waiver on the non-commercial
Medicare portion of our home care revenue, and an increase in direct sales representatives.
The CMS waiver benefited
the non-commercial Medicare portion of our home care revenue by increasing the number of referrals and the approval percentage
for non-covered diagnoses. We believe that our ongoing sales team execution, along with the expected return to pre-COVID-19 levels
of patient face-to-face engagement with physicians and clinic access for our sales team, has the potential to mitigate the impact
of a CMS waiver expiration, which is currently effective until July 2021.
Institutional revenue.
Institutional revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $443,000, representing a decrease of
approximately $166,000, or 27.3%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. For the nine months ended March 31, 2021, institutional
revenue was approximately $1,029,000, a decrease of approximately $698,000, or 40.4%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020.
The decrease in the current year periods was primarily due to the continued impact of COVID-19 on hospital purchasing activity.
Home care distributor
revenue . Home care distributor revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $105,000, representing
a decrease of approximately $59,000, or 36.0%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. For the nine months ended March 31,
2021, home care distributor revenue was approximately $432,000, an increase of approximately $16,000, or 3.8%, compared to the
same period in fiscal 2020. We began selling to home medical equipment distributors during the three months ended September 30,
2019, who in turn sell our SmartVest System in the U.S. home care market.
International revenue .
International revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $76,000, representing a decrease of approximately
$61,000, or 44.5%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. For the nine months ended March 31, 2021, international revenue
was approximately $297,000, a decrease of approximately $158,000, or 34.7%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2020. International
sales are affected by the timing of international distributor purchases that can cause significant fluctuations in reported revenue
on a quarterly basis.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased to
approximately $6,701,000, or 76.3% of net revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from approximately $6,594,000,
or 75.4% of net revenues, in the same period in fiscal 2020. Gross profit increased to approximately $20,374,000, or 77.5% of
net revenues, for the nine months ended March 31, 2021, from approximately $19,611,000, or 76.6% of net revenues, in the same
period in fiscal 2020. The increase in gross profit percentage compared to the prior year periods was primarily due to a
higher mix of home care revenue and a favorable mix of Medicare within the home care channel.
14
Operating expenses
Selling, general and
administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were approximately $6,051,000
and $16,490,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, representing increases of approximately $763,000
and $1,342,000, or 14.4% and 8.9%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year.
Payroll and compensation-related
expenses were approximately $3,838,000 and $10,569,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively,
representing increases of approximately $561,000 and $1,118,000, or 17.1% and 11.8%, respectively, compared to the same
periods in the prior year. The increase in the current year periods was primarily due to a higher average number of sales and
marketing personnel, increased temporary resources to assist with systems infrastructure investments, and increased incentive
payments on higher home care revenue . Field sales employees totaled 48, of which 39 were
direct sales, as of March 31, 2021, compared to 44 as of March 31, 2020, of which 37 were direct sales. We commenced recruiting
for four additional direct field sales employees in April 2021.
Travel, meals and entertainment
expenses were approximately $440,000 and $1,270,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, representing
decreases of approximately $85,000 and $397,000, or 16.2% and 23.8%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year.
The decrease in the current year periods was primarily due to travel reductions in connection with COVID-19.
Total discretionary marketing
expenses were approximately $348,000 and $853,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, representing
an increase of approximately $126,000 and $385,000, or 56.8% and 82.3%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior
year. The increase in the current year periods was primarily due to a direct-to-consumer marketing campaign that began in May 2020
and a comprehensive market research project.
Professional fees were
approximately $700,000 and $1,686,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, representing an increase
of approximately $124,000 and $212,000, or 21.5% and 14.4%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. Professional
fees are primarily for services related to legal costs, shareowner services and reporting requirements, information technology
technical support and consulting fees. The increase in the current year periods was primarily due to higher legal fees, annual
fees associated with a new human resources platform, increased investment in leadership development training, and fees associated
with the implementation of our new revenue cycle management software. We expect to make continued investments in our systems
infrastructure over the next year, including an enterprise resources planning software implementation.
Research and development
expenses. Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were approximately $407,000 and $1,396,000 for the
three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, representing increases of approximately $15,000 and $762,000, or
3.8% and 120.2%, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in the current year periods was
primarily due to next generation platform development activities. R&D expenses were approximately 4.6% and 5.3% of
revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, and we expect R&D investment to remain in a
similar range through calendar 2021.
Interest income, net
Net
interest income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $10,000 and $29,000, respectively, compared
to approximately $34,000 and $111,000, respectively, in the comparable prior year periods. The decrease in the current year periods
was primarily due to lower rates earned on our cash deposits.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense was
estimated at $29,000 and $555,000 and the effective tax rate was 11.5% and 22.0% for the three and nine months ended March 31,
2021, respectively. Estimated income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 included a $37,000 discrete tax benefit
as a result of lower federal and state taxes than what was originally estimated in our fiscal 2020 tax provision. The net impact
of this discrete event decreased the estimated effective tax rates by 14.6% during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Estimated income tax expense
for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 included a $37,000 discrete tax benefit as a result of lower federal and state taxes than
what was originally estimated in our fiscal 2020 tax provision and a $32,000 discrete tax benefit related to the exercise of stock
options. The net impact of these discrete events decreased the estimated effective tax rates by 2.7% during the nine months ended
March 31, 2021.
15
Estimated income tax expense
for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 included a $30,000 discrete tax expense as a result of higher federal and state taxes
than what was originally estimated in our fiscal 2019 tax provision and a $13,000 discrete tax benefit related to the exercise
of stock options. The net impact of these discrete events increased the estimated effective tax rates by 0.4% during the nine months
ended March 31, 2020.
Net income
Net income for the three
and nine months ended March 31, 2021 was approximately $224,000 and $1,962,000, respectively, compared to $653,000 and $2,853,000
for the same periods in the prior year. The decrease in the current year periods was driven by increased strategic investments
in SG&A and R&D, partially offset by stronger home care revenue performance and higher gross margin percentage.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows and Sources of Liquidity
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the nine months ended
March 31, 2021, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $2,325,000. Cash flows provided by operating activities
consisted of net income of approximately $1,962,000, an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,219,000, non-cash
expenses of $1,315,000, a decrease in contract assets of $345,000, and a decrease in inventory of $839,000. These cash flows from
operating activities were partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $3,296,000 and an increase in prepaid expenses
and other assets of $69,000. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to an increase in the Medicare portion of our
home care business, which has a 13-month payment cycle.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the nine months ended March 31, 2021,
cash used in investing activities was approximately $208,000. Cash used in investing activities consisted of approximately $105,000
in expenditures for property and equipment and approximately $103,000 in expenditures for patent costs.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the nine months ended
March 31, 2021, cash used in financing activities was approximately $95,000, which consisted of approximately $46,000 of cash provided
from stock option exercises offset by approximately $141,000 of taxes paid on net share settlements of stock option exercises.
Adequacy of Capital Resources
Our primary working capital
requirements relate to adding employees to our sales force and support functions, continuing R&D efforts, IT infrastructure
projects, and supporting general corporate needs, including financing equipment purchases and other capital expenditures incurred
in the ordinary course of business. Based on our current operational performance, we believe our working capital of approximately
$28,050,000 and available borrowings under our existing credit facility will provide adequate liquidity during fiscal 2021.
Effective December 18,
2020, we renewed our credit facility, which provides us with a revolving line of credit. Interest on borrowings on the line of
credit accrues at the prime rate (3.25% at March 31, 2021) less 1.00% and is payable monthly. There was no outstanding principal
balance on the line of credit as of March 31, 2021 or June 30, 2020. The amount eligible for borrowing on the line of credit is
limited to the lesser of $2,500,000 or 57.00% of eligible accounts receivable, and the line of credit expires on December 18, 2021,
if not renewed. At March 31, 2021, the maximum $2,500,000 was available under the line of credit. Payment obligations under the
line of credit are secured by a security interest in substantially all of our tangible and intangible assets.
The documents governing
our line of credit contain certain financial and nonfinancial covenants that include a minimum tangible net worth of not less than
$10,125,000 and restrictions on our ability to incur certain additional indebtedness or pay dividends.
16
Any failure to comply with
these covenants in the future may result in an event of default, which if not cured or waived, could result in the lender accelerating
the maturity of our indebtedness, preventing access to additional funds under the line of credit, requiring prepayment of outstanding
indebtedness, or refusing to renew the line of credit. If the maturity of the indebtedness is accelerated or the line of credit
is not renewed, sufficient cash resources to satisfy the debt obligations may not be available and we may not be able to continue
operations as planned. If we are unable to repay such indebtedness, the lender could foreclose on these assets.
For the nine months ended March
31, 2021 and 2020, we spent approximately $105,000 and $753,000, respectively, on property and equipment. We currently expect to
finance planned equipment purchases with cash flows from operations or borrowings under our credit facility. We may need to incur
additional debt if we have an unforeseen need for additional capital equipment or if our operating performance does not generate
adequate cash flows.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2021, we had no off-balance sheet
arrangements.
