2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the interim periods presented. Our fiscal year ends on December 31. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto and the report of our independent registered public accounting firm included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The nature of our business is such that the results of any interim period may not be indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
Basis of consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon historical experience, existing and known circumstances, authoritative accounting pronouncements and other factors that management believes to be reasonable. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable and the related allowance for doubtful accounts, income tax provisions, and fair value of financial instruments. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
As of September 30, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic is ongoing and the impacts of the pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations continue to evolve as of the date of this report. As a result, the impacts remain uncertain and

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tabular dollar amounts expressed in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
September 30, 2020 and 2019
difficult to predict and will depend on, among other factors, the duration and severity of the pandemic, as well as any negative economic conditions arising from the pandemic, our ability to assess potential patients in hospitals and set up and treat patients in the home, and the impacts of government actions and administrative regulations on the healthcare industry and broader economy, including through existing and any future stimulus efforts . As events continue to evolve and additional information becomes available, our estimates may change materially in future periods.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are regularly reviewed for collectability and an allowance is recorded to cover the estimated bad debts and billing modifications. The accounts receivable are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. It is possible that the estimates of the allowance for doubtful accounts could change, which could have a material impact on our operations and cash flows.
The Company writes off receivables when the likelihood for collection is remote, and when the Company believes collection efforts have been fully exhausted and it does not intend to devote additional resources in attempting to collect. The write-offs are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our assessment considered business and market disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and estimates of expected emerging credit and collectability trends. The continued volatility in market conditions and evolving shifts in credit trends are difficult to predict causing variability and volatility that may have a material impact on our allowance for credit losses in future periods.
The estimates and write-offs for the allowance for doubtful accounts for each reporting period were as follows:
September 30, 2020 September 30, 2019
Balance, beginning of year $ 7,782 $ 4,266
Change in allowance for doubtful accounts 7,031 6,937
Amounts written off ( 6,025 ) ( 3,539 )
Balance, end of period $ 8,788 $ 7,664
As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, no one customer represented more than 10% of outstanding accounts receivable. The Company does have receivables at September 30, 2020 from Medicare and Medicaid, representing 59 % and 6 %, respectively, and 65 % combined, of total outstanding receivables (December 31, 2019 - 58 %). As these receivables are both from government programs, there is little credit risk associated with these balances; however, these receivables are subject to billing modifications and other adjustments and estimates of the amounts of such adjustments are included in the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Revenues from Medicare and Medicaid as percentages of the Company's traditional revenue streams, excluding COVID-19 response sales and services, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, were as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2020 2019 2020 2019
Medicare Revenues 57 % 57 % 60 % 59 %
Medicaid Revenues 9 % 7 % 9 % 7 %
Total Medicare and Medicaid 66 % 64 % 69 % 66 %
Inventory
Inventory represents non-serialized respiratory supplies that consist of equipment parts, consumables, and associated product supplies and is expensed at the time of sale or use. The Company values inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Obsolete and unserviceable inventories are valued at estimated net realizable value . Inventory is presented net of a reserve balance of $ 805,000 and $ 0 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, that relates to COVID-19 response supplies.

(Unaudited)
September 30, 2020 and 2019
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at historic cost less accumulated depreciation. Major renewals and improvements that extend the useful life of assets are capitalized to the respective property accounts, while maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the useful life of the respective assets, are expensed as incurred. Management has estimated the useful lives of equipment leased to customers. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Property and equipment are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:
Description Estimated Useful Lives
Medical Equipment 1 - 10 Years
Computer Equipment 5 Years
Office Furniture & Fixtures 5 - 10 Years
Leasehold Improvements Shorter of Useful Life or Lease
Vehicles 5 Years
Building 15 - 39 Years
Land Indefinite Life
Depreciation of medical equipment commences at the date of service, which represents the date that the asset has been deployed to a patient’s address and is put in use and continues through the useful life of the asset. Property and equipment and other non-current assets with definite useful lives are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Prepaid expenses and other assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets consists primarily of prepaid expenses such as insurance, rent, and supplier deposits for rental equipment.
Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income reflects the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Our comprehensive income represents net income adjusted for unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments. Accumulated other comprehensive loss is presented on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of shareholders' equity.
Revenue recognition
Revenue from a customer consists of any combination of the sale and rental of DME and/or patient medical services. Revenues are billed to and collections received from Medicare, Medicaid, third-party insurers, co-insurance and patient-pay. Revenue is recognized net of contractual adjustments and bad debt based on contractual arrangements with third-party payors, an evaluation of expected collections resulting from the analysis of current and past due accounts, past collection experience in relation to amounts billed and other relevant information. Contractual adjustments result from the differences between the rates charged for services and reimbursement rates paid by government-sponsored healthcare programs and insurance companies for such services.
The Company's contracts with customers often include multiple products and services, and the Company evaluates these arrangements to determine the unit of accounting for revenue recognition purposes based on whether the product or service is distinct from other products or services in the arrangement and should be accounted for as a separate performance obligation. A product or service is distinct if the customer can benefit from it on its own or together with other readily available resources and the Company's ability to transfer the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contractual arrangement with the customer (e.g. patient). Revenue is then allocated to each separately identifiable good or service based on the standalone price of the items underlying the performance obligations. Most of the Company’s products fall in the Medicare Fee-for-Service (“FFS”) program which is a payment model where services are unbundled and paid for separately. These services are paid based on a Medicare determined price that is publicly available on the website for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”).

September 30, 2020 and 2019
For commercial payors, DME companies must negotiate in-network pricing separately, though in general, the Company’s payors tend to benchmark their contract rates and coverage policies closely to those of Medicare.
The Company considers performance obligations for sales and rentals to be met when the customer receives the equipment, and revenue for rentals is recognized over time, over the respective rental period. For revenue associated with DME rentals, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 842, “Leases,” (Topic 842). For any DME sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue under FASB ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (Topic 606) and related amendments.
The Company recognizes equipment rental revenue over the non-cancelable lease term, which is one month , less estimated adjustments, in accordance with Topic 842. The Company has separate contracts with each patient that are not subject to a master lease agreement with any third-party payor. The Company would first consider the lease classification issue (sales-type lease or operating lease) and then appropriately recognize or defer rental revenue over the lease term .
The revenues from each major source are summarized in the following table:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2020 2019 2020 2019
Revenue from rentals under Topic 842
Ventilator rentals, non-invasive and invasive $ 19,962 $ 17,213 $ 58,672 $ 50,990

Total Revenues $ 33,447 $ 20,368 $ 100,107 $ 58,808
Revenue Accounting under Topic 842
The Company leases DME such as non-invasive and invasive ventilators, positive airway pressure ("PAP") machines, percussion vests, oxygen concentrator units and other small respiratory equipment to customers for a fixed monthly amount on a month-to-month basis. The customer generally has the right to cancel the lease at any time during the rental period. The Company considers these rentals to be operating leases.
Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, the Company recognizes rental revenue on operating leases on a straight-line basis over the contractual lease term which varies based on the type of equipment rental. The lease term begins on the date products are delivered to patients, and revenues are recorded at amounts estimated to be received under reimbursement arrangements with third-party payors, including Medicare, private commercial payors, and Medicaid. Certain customer co-payments are included in revenue when considered probable of payment, which is generally when paid.
Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application or claim denial.
Revenue Accounting under Topic 606
The Company sells DME, replacement parts and supplies to customers and recognizes revenue based on contractual payment rates as determined by the payors at the point in time where control of the good or service is transferred through delivery to the customer. The customer and, if applicable, the payors are generally charged at the time that the product is sold. For sales of equipment previously placed in service, proceeds associated with these sales are recorded to gain (loss) on disposal of property and equipment.
The Company also provides sleep study services to customers and recognizes revenue when the results of the sleep study are complete as that is when the performance obligation is met. The transaction price on both equipment sales and sleep studies is the

amount that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods and services provided. Due to the nature of the DME business, gross charges are retail charges and generally do not reflect what the Company is ultimately paid. As such, the transaction price is constrained for the difference between the gross charge and what is estimated to be collected from payors and from patients. The transaction price therefore is predominantly based on contractual payment rates as determined by the payors. The Company does not generally contract with uninsured customers. The payment terms and conditions of customer contracts vary by customer type and the products and services offered.
The Company determines its estimates of contractual allowances and discounts based upon contractual agreements, its policies and historical experience. While the rates are fixed for the product or service with the customer and the payors, such amounts typically include co-payments, co-insurance and deductibles, which vary in amounts, and are due from the patient. The Company includes in the transaction price only the amount that the Company expects to be entitled, which is substantially all of the payor billings at contractual rates. The transaction price is initially constrained by the amount of customer co-payments, which are included in the transaction price when considered probable of payment and included in revenue if the product or service has already been provided to the customer.
Due to the nature of the industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenue and accounts receivable at their net realizable values. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payors may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded. Such adjustments are typically identified and recorded at the point of cash application or claim denial.
Returns and refunds are not accepted on either equipment sales or sleep study services. The Company does not offer warranties to customers in excess of the manufacturer’s warranty. Any taxes due upon sale of the products or services are not recognized as revenue. The Company does not have any partially or unfilled performance obligations related to contracts with customers and as such, the Company has no contract liabilities as of September 30, 2020.
Stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 , "Compensation—Stock Compensation" , which establishes accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. Stock–based compensation cost for stock options are determined at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Stock-based compensation costs for restricted stock units are determined at the grant date based on the closing stock price. The expense of such stock-based compensation awards is recognized using the graded vesting attribution method over the vesting period and the offsetting credit is recorded as an increase in additional paid-in capital. Forfeitures are recorded as incurred. Any excess tax benefit or deficiency is recognized as a component of income taxes and within operating cash flows upon vesting of the share-based award.
Interest rate swaps
The Company utilizes an interest rate swap contract to reduce exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates for future interest payments on the Term Note (as defined below).
For determining the fair value of the interest rate swap contract, the Company uses significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs) that market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk. These fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate swap contract and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves. The Company includes unrealized gains in Prepaid expenses and other assets, as a component of Long-term Assets, and unrealized losses in Accrued Liabilities, as a component of Long-term Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company recognizes any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements from its swap counterparty as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swap. If determined to be an effective cash flow hedge, the Company will record the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income or loss on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. To the extent that interest rate swaps are determined to be ineffective, the Company would recognize the changes in the estimated fair value of swaps in Interest and other non-operating expenses, net in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The new guidance modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020 and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as defined by the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can selectively delay the adoption of all accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to utilize this exemption and, as a result, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers that are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies. To date, however, the Company has not delayed the adoption of any accounting standards except as noted below. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that the Company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period at any time, which election is irrevocable.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” to require the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The ASU will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2020 for issuers and annual periods beginning January 1, 2023 for non-issuers. The Company anticipates adopting this ASU on January 1, 2023 given its smaller reporting company status and is still evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements in future periods.
In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Among other things, the ASU expands the scope of the practical expedient that allows entities to exclude the accrued interest component of amortized cost from various disclosures required by ASC 326 to also include certain disclosures required by Topic 320. Entities that elect to apply the practical expedient must disclose the total amount of accrued interest that they exclude from their disclosures of amortized cost. The amendments have the same effective dates as ASU 2016-13 (Topic ASC 326) for entities that have not yet adopted that standard. For entities that early adopted ASU 2016-13 (Topic ASC 326), the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods therein. Entities that early adopted ASU 2016-13 (Topic ASC 326) may early adopt the amendments.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The new guidance also improves consistent application of and simplifies U.S. GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending the existing guidance. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the new guidance.

6. Fair value measurement
Under ASC Topic 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). ASC Topic 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. There are three levels to the hierarchy based on the reliability of inputs, as follows:
Level 1 - Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are measured using Level 1 inputs and include cash on hand, deposits in banks, and money market funds. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximate the fair value of cash and cash equivalents.
The fair value of debt is classified as Level 2 for the periods presented and approximates its carrying value.
Warrants
During 2019, the Company had warrants to purchase one common share of the Company denominated in Canadian dollars which is different from the functional currency of the Company, which is U.S. dollars. The conversion feature is treated as a derivative financial liability and the fair value movement during the period is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income. The change in the value of warrants has been recorded as an unrealized (gain) loss on derivative financial liability in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. All unexercised warrants expired during the year ended December 31, 2019.
The warrant derivative financial liability was valued using Level 3 inputs from the fair value hierarchy.
There were no warrants issued or outstanding during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020. A summary of the change in fair value of warrant conversion liability is as follows for the period ended September 30, 2019:
Warrant Conversion Liability
Balance December 31, 2018 $ 363

Unrealized gain on warrant conversion liability ( 363 )

Derivative instruments and hedging activities
The Company has one interest rate swap contract in place, which became effective on May 31, 2019 and has been designated as a cash flow hedge. This swap contract matures on May 30, 2026. This swap contract converts the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on borrowings under the Building Term Note. As of September 30, 2020, the notional amount of the interest rate swap was $ 4.7 million and will be amortized over the term of the swap. The fair value was $ 0.5 million (determined based on Level 2 inputs) and is included in Accrued liabilities, as a component of Long-term liabilities as of September 30, 2020.
In the first nine months of 2020, losses recognized as a result of ineffectiveness were immaterial.
7. Shareholders' Equity
Authorized share capital
The Company’s authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of common shares .
Issued and outstanding share capital
The Company has only one class of stock outstanding, common shares. The authorized stock consists of an unlimited number of common shares with no stated par value, of which 39,145,182 and 37,952,660 shares were issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Stock-based compensation
The purpose of the Company's RSU and Option Plans (collectively, the "Former Plan") is to provide incentive to employees, directors, officers, management companies, and consultants who provide services to the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Former Plan is a “fixed” stock plan, whereby the maximum number of the Company's shares reserved for issuance, combined with any equity securities granted under all other compensation arrangements adopted by the Company, may not exceed 7,582,000 shares (equal to 20 % of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of the adoption of the Plan).
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had outstanding issuances of options of 3,068,000 and restricted stock units of 679,000 under the Former Plan.
Effective June 11, 2020 (the "Effective Date"), the Company’s shareholders approved the Company's 2020 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan"), and the Former Plan was frozen. No future awards will be made under the Former Plan, and the common shares that were not settled or awarded under the Former Plan as of the Effective Date are available for awards under the Omnibus Plan. The maximum number of common shares that are available for awards under the Omnibus Plan and under any other security based compensation arrangements adopted by the Company, including the Former Plan, may not exceed 7,758,000 shares (equal to 20 % of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on the Effective Date). The maximum amount of the foregoing common shares that may be awarded under the Omnibus Plan as “incentive stock options” is 2,600,000 Common Shares.
The following table summarizes stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
2020 2019 2020 2019

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
We accrue estimates for resolution of any legal and other contingencies when losses are probable and reasonably estimable in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies (“ASC 450”). No less than quarterly, we review the status of each significant matter underlying a legal proceeding or claim and assess our potential financial exposure. We accrue a liability for an estimated loss if the potential loss from any legal proceeding or claim is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether the amount of an exposure is reasonably estimable, and accruals are based only on the information available to our management at the time the judgment is made, which may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate or unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause us to change those estimates and assumptions. Furthermore, the outcome of legal proceedings is inherently uncertain, and we may incur substantial defense costs and expenses defending any of these matters.
In March 2020, we (through our subsidiary Sleep Management LLC) entered into a purchase order (the “Purchase Order”) with
Vyaire Medical, Inc. d/b/a CareFusion Respiratory Technologies (“Vyaire”) for respiratory equipment and paid $ 1.4 million (the “Deposit”) towards the delivery of such respiratory equipment. As of September 30, 2020, outstanding supplier deposits in the amount of $ 0.9 million related to such Deposit are included within other prepaid and other current assets. Vyaire has been unable to deliver the vast majority of the respiratory equipment referenced in the Purchase Order. On July 29, 2020, we (through our subsidiary Sleep Management LLC) filed a lawsuit against Vyaire in the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana (the “Court”) seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company is not required to pay any further funds to Vyaire and demanding Vyaire refund all amounts currently held by Vyaire as a result of the Deposit.
On September 23, 2020, Vyaire filed its Defense and Counterclaim (“Counterclaim”) with the Court alleging breach of contract and seeking damages of $ 4.7 million, purportedly for the improper cancellation of the Purchase Order. On October 16, 2020, we filed an answer and affirmative defenses with the Court in response to the Counterclaim and intend to pursue further legal action. We continue to believe that we have valid legal and equitable grounds to recover our outstanding Deposit as a result of Vyaire’s failure to deliver the vast majority of the respiratory equipment referenced in the Purchase Order. We have not concluded that a loss

related to the Counterclaim is probable, nor have we accrued a liability related to this claim. Although a loss may be reasonably possible (as defined in ASC 450), we do not have sufficient information to determine the amount or range of reasonably possible loss with respect to the Counterclaim given that the dispute is in the early stages of the legal process.
9. Other Income
"CARES" Act Funds Received
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") created a Provider Relief Fund to support health care-related expenses or lost revenue attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company received $ 3.5 million of the Provider Relief Funds in April 2020 and has recognized this amount within other income on its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Department of Health and Human Services has stated that Provider Relief Fund payments are not loans and will not need to be repaid. However, as a condition to the receipt of funds, the Company and any other providers must agree to a detailed set of terms and conditions. CMS has indicated that the terms and conditions may be subject to ongoing changes and reporting. To the extent that reporting requirements and terms and conditions are modified, it may affect the Company’s ability to comply and may require the return of funds. In accordance with the terms of acceptance for the grant, the Company has utilized these funds to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
10. Income Taxes
At September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no amounts recorded for uncertain tax positions and does not expect any material changes in uncertain tax benefits during the next 12 months. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
The CARES Act which was signed into law on March 27, 2020 includes various income and payroll tax provisions. As of September 30, 2020, the CARES Act has not had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, however, the Company is still analyzing these provisions of the CARES Act.
The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in various states. The Company is generally not subject to examination by taxing authorities for years prior to 2016. Our annual estimated effective tax benefit rate for 2020 is ( 19.20 )%. Our effective tax rate is based on forecasted annual results which may fluctuate significantly through the rest of the year, in particular due to the uncertainty in our annual forecasts resulting from the unpredictable impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results. Included in the annual estimated effective tax rate of ( 19.20 )% are discrete permanent differences that make up ( 3.0 )% of the rate and a discrete benefit described below accounting for ( 31.50 )%.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that the Company believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. Pursuant to ASC 740, any change in judgment relating to the beginning of the year valuation allowance balance should be recognized discretely in continuing operations in the interim period in which the change occurs. At June 30, 2020, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax asset would be realized, and made an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which reduced the provision for income taxes by $ 7.8 million.

11. Earnings Per Share
Income per common share is calculated using earnings for the year divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year . Using the treasury stock method, diluted income per share amounts are calculated giving effect to the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted to common shares by assuming the proceeds received from the exercise of stock options, restricted stock units, and warrants are used to purchase common shares at the prevailing market rate.
The following reflects the earnings and share data used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:
