Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Electromed, Inc. (the Company) as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Measurement of Customer Revenue Net of Adjustments As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, revenues are recognized at a point in time when control passes to the customer upon product shipment or delivery. Net patient revenues (patient revenue less estimated adjustments) are recognized at the estimated net realizable amounts from third-party payors and customers in exchange for the product. The Company has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments at amounts different from its established rates. Each quarter, the Company estimates its adjustments for each sale based on the terms of third-party payor contracts and the historical collection and write-off experience and applies an estimate for an adjustment reserve percentage to the gross accounts receivable balances. We identified the measurement of customer revenue net of adjustments as a critical audit matter due to the audit effort, degree of auditor judgment, and subjectivity involved in evaluating the audit evidence related to the adjustment reserves. F- 2 Our audit procedures related to the Company’s measurement of customer revenue net of adjustments included the following, among others. ● Selected a sample of product sales to inspect and compare to the underlying source documents and final cash collections to test the reasonableness of contractual adjustment and collection percentages. ● For a sample of product sales, we traced gross revenue and adjustments to net revenue recorded in the general ledger. ● Evaluated the reasonableness of management’s estimate of contractual and collection reserves by: ○ Comparing the estimates of realization percentages to historical net collection percentages for portfolio groups ○ Recalculating the contractual and collection reserve estimates and compared them to the general ledger ○ Evaluating the quarterly trend analysis for portfolio groups for changes in historical realization percentages. /s/ RSM US LLP We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2010.

F- 7 Electromed, Inc. Notes to Financial Statements Note 1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Nature of business: 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 $658,000 and $718,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2021 (“fiscal 2021 and June 30, 2020 (“fiscal 2020”), respectively. Since its inception, the Company has operated in a single industry segment: developing, manufacturing and marketing medical equipment. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies follows: Use of estimates: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“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 financial statements include revenue recognition and the related estimation of variable consideration, allowance for doubtful accounts, the potential impairment of intangible and long-lived assets, inventory obsolescence, share-based compensation and the warranty reserve. COVID-19 Pandemic and CARES Act Funding The Company did not receive any direct financial assistance from any government program during fiscal 2021. The Company received a one-time $913,000 payment under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, which partially offset lower profitability related to the revenue decline caused by the COVID-19 pandemic during the period. The amount received from the CARES Act is subject to compliance with certain terms and conditions and reporting requirements, and such report may be audited by a federal agency for compliance with the program’s terms and conditions. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the U.S. federal government’s declaration of a public health emergency, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services 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 were made retroactively effective to March 1, 2020 and were in place for the duration of fiscal 2021. Clinical indications and documentation typically required were not enforced for respiratory related products including the Company’s SmartVest® Airway Clearance System (“SmartVest System”) (solely with respect to direct Medicare covered patients) applicable for the Company’s home care prescriptions. The minimum documentation now requires a valid order and documentation of a respiratory related diagnosis. Face-to-face and in-person requirements for replacement respiratory devices are being waived during such period, both of which are currently scheduled to expire in October 2021. A temporary suspension of a 2% tax on Medicare payments was also initiated in May 2020 and has been extended through December 2021. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business remains uncertain and its effects on 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 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 deployment of treatments or vaccines, and the resumption of widespread economic activity. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and evolving situation, the Company is unable to predict with confidence the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its future operations. Revenue recognition: 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 noncash 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. See Note 2 for information on revenue. F- 8 Shipping and handling expense: Shipping and handling charges incurred by the Company are included in cost of revenues and were $530,000 and $515,000 for fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in bank deposits and money market funds with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts. Accounts receivable: The Company’s accounts receivable balance is comprised of amounts due from individuals, institutions and distributors. Balances due from individuals are typically remitted to the Company by third-party reimbursement agencies such as Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance companies. Accounts receivable are carried at amounts estimated to be received from patients under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payers. Accounts receivable are also net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition and credit history. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $45,000 as of June 30, 2021 and 2020. 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. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Work in process and finished goods are carried at standard cost, which approximates actual cost, and includes materials, labor and allocated overhead. Standard costs are reviewed at least quarterly by management, or more often in the event circumstances indicate a change in cost has occurred. The reserve for obsolescence is determined by analyzing the inventory on hand and comparing it to expected future sales. Estimated inventory to be returned is based on how many devices that have shipped that are expected to be returned prior to completion of the insurance reimbursement process. Property and equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining lease term. The Company retains ownership of demonstration equipment in the possession of both inside and outside sales representatives, who use the equipment in the sales process. Finite-life intangible assets: Finite-life intangible assets include patents and trademarks. These intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as described in Note 5. Long-lived assets: Long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment and finite-life intangible assets, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. In evaluating recoverability, the following factors, among others, are considered: a significant change in the circumstances used to determine the amortization period, an adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate, a transition to a new product or service strategy, a significant change in customer base, and a realization of failed marketing efforts. The recoverability of an asset or asset group is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of the asset to future undiscounted cash flows. If the Company believes the carrying value is unrecoverable, then it recognizes an impairment charge necessary to reduce the unamortized balance to the estimated fair value of the asset or asset group. The amount of such impairment is charged to operations in the current period. Warranty liability: The Company provides a lifetime warranty on its products to the prescribed patient for sales within the U.S. and Canada, and a three-year warranty for all institutional sales and sales to individuals outside the U.S. (except for Canadian home care). 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. F- 9 Changes in the Company’s warranty liability were approximately as follows: Years Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Beginning warranty reserve $ 740,000 $ 810,000 Accrual for products sold 354,000 79,000 Expenditures and costs incurred for warranty claims (154,000 ) (149,000 ) Ending warranty reserve $ 940,000 $ 740,000 Income taxes: Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company reverses a valuation allowance if it determines, based on the weight of all available evidence, including when cumulative losses become positive income, that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company recognizes tax liabilities when the Company believes that certain positions may not be fully sustained upon review by tax authorities. Benefits from tax positions are measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. To the extent that the final tax outcome of these matters is different than the amounts recorded, such differences impact income tax expense in the period in which such determination is made. Interest and penalties, if any, related to accrued liabilities for potential tax assessments are included in income tax expense. Research and development: Research and development costs include costs of research activities as well as engineering and technical efforts required to develop new products or make improvements to existing products. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs: Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. Advertising, marketing and trade show costs for fiscal 2021 and 2020 were approximately $1,062,000 and $781,000, respectively. Share-based payments: Share-based payment awards consist of options to purchase shares of common stock and restricted shares of common stock issued to employees for services. Expense for options is estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model at the date of grant and expense for restricted stock is determined by the closing price on the day the grant is made. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service or vesting period of the award, or at the time services are provided for non-employee awards. Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying value of long-term debt is the remaining amount due to debtors under borrowing arrangements. To estimate the fair value of debt, the Company estimates the interest rate necessary to secure financing to replace its debt. Basic and diluted earnings per 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 shares of common stock at the beginning of the period, unless their effect is anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents of 48,617 and zero shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively, as their impact was antidilutive. See Note 8 for information on share-based payments. F- 10 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 Financial Accounting Standards Board 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 SmartVest System after control has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of revenues. The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in accounts receivable on the balance sheets as further described below under Accounts receivable and Contract assets . Disaggregation of revenues. In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by market: Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Home Care $ 32,986,000 $ 29,323,000 Institutional 1,549,000 2,000,000 Home Care Distributor 563,000 430,000 International 658,000 718,000 Total $ 35,756,000 $ 32,471,000 F- 11 In the following table, home care revenue is disaggregated by payer type: Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Commercial $ 12,530,000 $ 11,728,000 Medicare 19,044,000 14,863,000 Medicaid 846,000 1,696,000 Other 566,000 1,036,000 Total $ 32,986,000 $ 29,323,000 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. 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. F- 12 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. 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. F- 13 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. ● Rentals – 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 fiscal 2021 and 2020 was approximately $1,000 and $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. From time to time the Company will provide accessory parts at its discretion at no cost to the customer. 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 expense sales incentives as incurred. These costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company’s statements of operations. Contract balances. The following table provides information about accounts receivable and contracts assets from contracts with customers: June 30, 2021 June 30, 2020 Receivables, included in “Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts” $ 17,032,000 $ 12,941,000 Contract assets $ 393,000 $ 903,000 F- 14 Significant changes in contract assets during the period are as follows: Fiscal Year Ended Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2021 June 30, 2020 Increase (decrease) Increase (decrease) Contract assets, beginning $ 903,000 $ 996,000 Reclassification of contract assets to accounts receivable (1,551,000 ) (1,858,000 ) Contract assets recognized 1,060,000 1,734,000 Increase (decrease) as a result of changes in the estimate of amounts to be realized from payers, excluding amounts transferred to receivables during the period (19,000 ) 31,000 Contract assets, ending $ 393,000 $ 903,000 Note 3. Inventories The components of inventories as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 were approximately as follows: June 30, 2021 2020 Parts inventory $ 1,779,000 $ 2,271,000 Work in process 23,000 127,000 Finished goods 445,000 827,000 Estimated inventory to be returned 167,000 150,000 Less: Reserve for obsolescence (300,000 ) (290,000 ) Total $ 2,114,000 $ 3,085,000 Note 4. Property and Equipment Property and equipment were approximately as follows: Estimated Useful June 30, Lives (Years) 2021 2020 Building and building improvements 15-39 $ 3,446,000 $ 3,437,000 Land N/A 200,000 200,000 Land improvements 15 166,000 166,000 Equipment 3-7 3,467,000 3,311,000 Demonstration and rental equipment 3 1,060,000 1,075,000 Construction in progress N/A 26,000 16,000 8,365,000 8,205,000 Less: Accumulated depreciation (4,760,000 ) (4,417,000 ) Net property and equipment $ 3,605,000 $ 3,788,000 Note 5. Finite-life Intangible Assets The carrying value of patents and trademarks includes the original cost of obtaining the patents, periodic renewal fees, and other costs associated with maintaining and defending patent and trademark rights. Patents and trademarks are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally 15 and 12 years, respectively. Accumulated amortization was approximately $1,248,000 and $1,119,000 as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. F- 15 The activity and net balances of finite-life intangible assets were approximately as follows: Years Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Balance, beginning $ 598,000 $ 581,000 Additions 198,000 139,000 Amortization expense (133,000 ) (122,000 ) Balance, ending $ 663,000 $ 598,000 Based on the carrying value as of June 30, 2021, future amortization is expected to be approximately as follows: Fiscal years ending June 30: 2022 $ 102,000 2023 41,000 2024 36,000 2025 34,000 2026 34,000 Thereafter 416,000 Total $ 663,000 Note 6. Financing Arrangements The Company has a credit facility that provides for a revolving line of credit and a term loan. Effective December 16, 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 June 30, 2021 or June 30, 2020. Interest on borrowings under the line of credit, if any, accrues at the prime rate (3.25% as of June 30, 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. As of June 30, 2021, the maximum $2,500,000 was eligible for borrowing. The line of credit is secured by a security interest in substantially all 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 7. Common Stock Authorized shares: The Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, have established 15,000,000 authorized shares of capital stock consisting of 13,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 2,000,000 shares of undesignated stock. On May 26, 2021 the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a stock repurchase authorization. Under the authorization, the Company may repurchase up to $3.0 million of shares of common stock through May 26, 2022. As of June 30, 2021, a total of 104,211 shares have been repurchased and retired under this authorization for a total cost of $1,124,000, or $10.79 per share. As of June 30, 2021, there were an additional $1,876,000 of shares of common stock available to be repurchased by the Company under the authorization. Repurchased shares have been retired and constitute authorized but unissued shares. Note 8. Share-Based Payments Share-based compensation expense for fiscal 2021 and 2020 was approximately $1,024,000 and $902,000, respectively, related to employee stock options and restricted stock awards. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $553,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested equity awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.9 years. F- 16 Employee options: The Company has historically granted stock options to employees as long-term incentive compensation. Options expire ten years from the grant date and vest over a period of three years. In November 2017, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) which supersedes the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”). The 2017 Plan allows the Board to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards, as well as cash incentive awards to all employees, non-employee directors, and advisors or consultants of the Company. The vesting schedule and term for each award are determined by the Board upon each grant. The maximum number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2017 Plan is 900,000. There were 258,500 options granted under the 2014 Plan and prior plans outstanding as of June 30, 2021. There were 209,549 options issued under the 2017 Plan outstanding and 476,224 shares available for grant under the 2017 Plan as of June 30, 2021. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to share-based payment transactions in the financial statements based on the estimated fair value of the award issued. The fair value of each option is estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model at the time of award grant. The Company estimates the expected life of options based on the expected holding period by the option holder. The risk-free interest rate is based upon observed U.S. Treasury interest rates for the expected term of the options. The Company makes assumptions with respect to expected stock price volatility based upon the historical volatility of its stock price. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Forfeitures are estimated based on the percentage of awards expected to vest, taking into consideration the seniority level of the award recipient. The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of options granted: Years Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Risk-free interest rate 0.31-0.59 % 1.85 % Expected term (years) 6 6 Expected volatility 283-335 % 190 % The following table presents employee stock option activity for fiscal 2021 and 2020: Number of Shares Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life (in Years) Options outstanding as of June 30, 2019 683,000 $ 3.35 $ 3.84 6.96 Granted 149,300 $ 5.19 $ 5.29 — Exercised (194,670 ) $ 2.47 $ 3.08 — Canceled or Forfeited (46,850 ) $ 5.16 $ 5.34 — Options outstanding as of June 30, 2020 590,780 $ 3.96 $ 4.34 6.87 Granted 61,017 $ 14.13 $ 14.14 — Exercised (71,150 ) $ 4.78 $ 5.09 — Canceled or Forfeited (112,598 ) $ 6.24 $ 6.50 — Options outstanding as of June 30, 2021 468,049 $ 4.61 $ 4.98 5.82 Options exercisable as of June 30, 2021 442,437 $ 4.16 $ 4.54 5.64 The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds its exercise price. As of June 30, 2021, the weighted average remaining contractual term for all outstanding stock options was 5.8 years and their aggregate intrinsic value was $3,094,000. Outstanding as of June 30, 2021 were 468,049 stock options issued to employees, of which 442,437 were vested and exercisable and had an aggregate intrinsic value of $3,074,000. F- 17 Restricted stock: The 2017 Plan permits the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board to grant other stock-based awards, including shares of restricted stock. The Company makes restricted stock grants to key employees and non-employee directors that vest over six months to three years following the applicable grant date. The Company issued restricted stock awards to employees totaling 30,756 and 35,000 during fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively, with a vesting term of one to three years and a fair value of $14.68 and $5.84 per share, respectively. During fiscal 2021 and 2020, the Company issued restricted stock awards to directors totaling 18,000 each year, with a vesting term of six months and a fair value of $9.94 and $9.74 per share, respectively. Restricted stock transactions during the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are summarized as follows: Shares of Restricted Stock Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Outstanding as of June 30, 2019 29,998 $ 5.46 Granted 53,000 $ 7.17 Vested (45,833 ) $ 6.83 Forfeited (14,666 ) $ 6.23 Outstanding as of June 30, 2020 22,499 $ 6.19 Granted 48,756 $ 12.93 Vested (40,752 ) $ 9.47 Outstanding as of June 30, 2021 30,503 $ 12.57 Note 9. Income Taxes Components of the provision for income taxes for fiscal 2021 and 2020 were as follows: Years Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Current: Current Federal $ 861,000 $ 922,000 Current State 238,000 282,000 Total Current 1,099,000 1,204,000 Deferred: Deferred Federal (204,000 ) (70,000 ) Deferred State (90,000 ) (56,000 ) Total Deferred (294,000 ) (126,000 ) Total Income Tax Expense $ 805,000 $ 1,078,000 The total income tax expense differed from the expected tax expense, computed by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s pretax income, as follows: Years Ended June 30, 2021 2020 Tax expense at statutory federal rate $ 665,000 $ 1,100,000 State income tax expense, net of federal tax effect 110,000 151,000 Change in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets 34,000 91,000 Other permanent items (4,000 ) (264,000 ) Income tax expense $ 805,000 $ 1,078,000 F- 18 The effective tax rates for fiscal 2021 and 2020 were 25.4% and 20.6%, respectively. The significant components of deferred income taxes were as follows: June 30, 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets (liabilities): Revenue recognition and accounts receivable reserves $ 655,000 $ 468,000 Accrued liabilities 297,000 253,000 Property and equipment (218,000 ) (202,000 ) Finite-life intangible assets (15,000 ) (6,000 ) Stock options 414,000 458,000 Tax credits 125,000 92,000 Accounting method change (140,000 ) (282,000 ) Valuation allowance on deferred taxes (125,000 ) (91,000 ) Other 56,000 65,000 Net deferred tax assets $ 1,049,000 $ 755,000 The Company has state tax credits of $125,000, net of federal taxes, which if unused, will begin to expire in calendar years 2026 and 2034. The Company has taken a full valuation allowance against these credits which relate to research and development tax credits in Minnesota, a state in which the Company has a low state apportionment factor. The Company applies the accounting standard for uncertain tax positions pursuant to which a more-likely-than-not threshold is utilized to determine the recognition and derecognition of uncertain tax positions. Once the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, the amount of benefit to be recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being ultimately realized upon settlement. It further requires that a change in judgment related to the expected ultimate resolution of uncertain tax positions be recognized in earnings in the period of such a change. The Company does not have any uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. With limited exceptions, tax years prior to the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 are no longer open to federal, state and local examination by taxing authorities. F- 19 Note 10. Leases The Company has six leases for office and warehouse space that require monthly payments. These leases have escalating payments ranging from approximately $200 to $4,400 per month which expire through January 2026 and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. The Company has a lease for office equipment that requires payments of approximately $1,600 per month through August 2022. All leases are classified as operating leases which do not include renewal options. The Company currently does not have any short-term or variable lease costs. The Company applied the practical expedient to calculate the present value of the fixed payments without having to perform an allocation to lease and non-lease components. The Company has recognized right of use assets associated with its operating leases of approximately $88,000 and $81,000 as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively, which is included in other assets on the Company’s balance sheet. Operating lease liabilities were $87,000 and $81,000 as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively, which are included in current maturities of long-term liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has a weighted-average lease term of 2.8 years for its operating leases, which have a weighted-average discount rate of 4.0%. Operating lease payments of $74,000 are included in operating cash flows in fiscal 2021. Maturities of lease liabilities, which are included in current maturities of long-term liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet, are as follows: Fiscal years ending June 30: 2022 $ 29,000 2023 18,000 2024 17,000 2025 17,000 2026 8,000 Total lease payments 89,000 Less: Interest (2,000 ) Present value of lease liabilities $ 87,000 Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation: The Company may occasionally be party to actions, proceedings, claims or disputes arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company insures certain business risks where possible to mitigate the financial impact of individual claims and establishes reserves for an estimate of any probable cost of settlement or other disposition. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan: The Company has an employee benefit plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code covering all employees who are 21 years of age or older and have at least 1,000 hours of service with the Company. The Company matches each employee’s salary reduction contribution, not to exceed four percent of annual compensation. Total employer contributions to this plan for fiscal 2021 and 2020 were approximately $399,000 and $329,000, respectively. Employment Agreements: The Company has entered into formal employment agreements with its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as amended from time to time. These agreements provide these officers with, among other things, twelve to eighteen months of base salary upon a termination without “Cause” or in the event the employee resigns for “Good Reason” or within twelve months of a “Change in Control,” as such terms are defined in the respective employment agreements.
