Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) on a basis consistent with reporting interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The year-end balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from audited consolidated financial statements.

On June 30, 2023, NextPlat Corp (“NextPlat”), Charles M. Fernandez, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Rodney Barreto, Vice-Chairman of the Company, entered into a voting agreement whereby at any annual or special shareholders meeting of the Company’s stockholders Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto agreed to vote all of the common stock shares that they own in the same manner that NextPlat votes its Common Stock and equivalents. On July 1, 2023, NextPlat, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto exercised common stock purchase warrants and were issued common stock shares by the Company. After the exercise of the common stock purchase warrants, NextPlat, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto collectively owned 53% of the Company’s voting common stock. Collectively, the exercise of the common stock purchase warrants and the entry into the voting agreement constituted a change in control in Progressive Care. As a result of the change in control, the Company elected to apply push-down accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The application of push-down accounting created a new basis of accounting for all assets and liabilities based on their fair value at the date of acquisition, with few exceptions permissible under US GAAP. As a result, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows subsequent to the acquisition on July 1, 2023 have been segregated to indicate pre-acquisition and post-acquisition periods. The pre-acquisition period through June 30, 2023 is referred to as the “Predecessor Company”. The post-acquisition period, July 1, 2023 and forward, includes the impact of push-down accounting and is referred to as the “Successor Company”.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented.

The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain 2022 financial information has been reclassified to conform to the 2023 presentation. Such reclassifications do not impact the Company’s previously reported financial position or net income (loss). On the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Interest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, has been reported on a separate line item apart from Selling, general, and administrative in the current period financial statements. Additionally, Revenues, net, Costs of revenue, and Operating expenses have been disaggregated for all periods presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies of the Company were described in Note 3 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Except as described above in Note 2, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. 

Cash

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts at several financial institutions, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and at times may exceed federally insured limits of $250,000. The Company had approximately $1.6 million that was uninsured as of  September 30, 2023. In July 2023, the Company entered into a deposit placement agreement for Insured Cash Sweep Services (“ICS”). This service is a secure and convenient way to access FDIC protection on large deposits, earn a return, and enjoy flexibility. The Company believes that the ICS agreement will mitigate its credit risk as it relates to uninsured FDIC amounts in excess of $250,000.

Concentrations

Suppliers:

The Company had significant concentrations with one vendor. The purchases from this significant vendor were 99% of total vendor purchases for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The purchases from this significant vendor were 97%, 93% and 95% of total vendor purchases for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-04, “Liabilities (Topic 405) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121”, to amend and add various SEC paragraphs in the Accounting Standards Codification to reflect the issuance of SEC Staff Bulletin No. 121. The Company adopted this conforming guidance upon issuance and the adoption had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-03, “Presentation of Financial Statement (Topic 205), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Equity (Topic 505), and Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718)”, to amend various SEC paragraphs in the Accounting Standards Codification to reflect the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 120, among other things. The Company adopted this conforming guidance upon issuance and the adoption had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an impairment model based on expected, rather than incurred, losses. Additionally, it requires expanded disclosures regarding (a) credit risk inherent in a portfolio and how management monitors the portfolio’s credit quality; (b) management’s estimate of expected credit losses; and (c) changes in estimates of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” This ASU clarifies receivables from operating leases are accounted for using the lease guidance and not as financial instruments. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” This ASU clarifies various scoping and other issues arising from ASU 2016-13. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments.” This ASU improves the Codification and amends the interaction of Topic 842 and Topic 326. ASU 2016-13 and related amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2023 and the adoption had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, the Company will contemplate forward-looking economic conditions in recording lifetime expected credit losses for the Company’s financial assets measured at cost.

Note 4. Business Combination

As referenced in Note 2, the Company has applied push-down accounting to its financial statements, which resulted in the initial recognition of its assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date, July 1, 2023. The assets and liabilities were measured at estimated fair values primarily using Level 3 inputs. Estimates of fair value represent management's best estimate which require a complex series of judgments about future events and uncertainties. Third-party valuation specialists were engaged to assist in the valuation of these assets and liabilities. The fair values of the Company’s current assets and current liabilities were assumed to approximate their carrying values. The estimated fair values of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets consist of trade name, developed technology, and pharmacy records. The fair values of trade name and developed technology were estimated by applying an income approach, specifically a relief from royalty method. The fair value of pharmacy records was estimated by applying a market approach. The estimated fair value of the Company's building and land, included in property and equipment, net, was estimated by applying a sales comparison approach while vehicles, furniture and equipment, leasehold improvements and fixtures, and computer equipment were assumed to approximate their carrying value. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market, and thus represent Level 3 measurements. Goodwill was recorded as the excess of the estimated enterprise value over the sum of the fair value amounts allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the fair value of the consideration to the assets and liabilities of the Company on July 1, 2023. The preliminary allocation to certain assets and/or liabilities may be adjusted by material amounts as the Company continues to finalize its fair value estimates. The total consideration is based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock outstanding at July 1, 2023, which was 6,162,343 common shares outstanding and a fair market value of $4.45 per share.

(1) 10 year amortization period

(2) 5 year amortization period

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and also establishes the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had common stock purchase warrants classified as Level 3 equity instruments. The fair value of the common stock purchase warrants on the date of issuance was approximately $4.6 million. As of September 30, 2023, the fair value of the remaining common stock purchase warrants was approximately $1.0 million. The Company used the Monte Carlo simulation model for valuation of the common stock purchase warrants. Key inputs into the Monte Carlo simulation model were as follows at the valuation date: risk-free interest rate: 3.5%-3.7%; expected term: 3-5.6 years; expected volatility: 93%-102%; exercise price: $2.20. For additional information on the initial issuance and subsequent exercise of the common stock purchase warrants, see also “Note 14. Stockholder’s Equity, Common Stock and Common Stock Purchase Warrants.”

Note 6. Revenue

The Company recognizes prescription revenue and 340B contract revenue from dispensing prescription drugs at the time the drugs are physically delivered to a customer or when a customer picks up their prescription or purchases merchandise at the store, which is the point in time when control transfers to the customer. Each prescription claim is considered an arrangement with the customer and is a separate performance obligation. Payments are received directly from the customer at the point of sale, or the customers’ insurance provider is billed electronically. For third-party medical insurance and other claims, authorization is obtained to ensure payment from the customer’s insurance provider before the medication is dispensed to the customer. Authorization is obtained for these sales electronically and a corresponding authorization number is issued by the customers’ insurance provider.

The Company accrues an estimate of PBM fees, including direct and indirect remuneration (“DIR”) fees, which are assessed or expected to be assessed by payers at some point after adjudication of a claim, as a reduction of revenue at the time revenue is recognized. Changes in the estimate of such fees are recorded as an adjustment to revenue when the change becomes known.

The Company recognizes COVID-19 testing revenue when the tests are performed and results are delivered to the customer. Each test is considered an arrangement with the customer and is a separate performance obligation. Payment is generally received in advance from the customer.

Billings for most prescription orders are with third-party payers, including Medicare, Medicaid, and insurance carriers. Customer returns are nominal. Prescription revenue, net of PBM fees, for the Successor Company was 80% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Prescription revenue, net of PBM fees, for the Predecessor Company was 84%, 86%, and 86% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

The following table disaggregates net revenues by categories:

Note 7. Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic weighted average (loss) earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net (loss) income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the year including common stock purchase warrants and stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt, using the if converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The components of basic and diluted EPS were as follows. For all periods presented, the Company incurred a net loss causing inclusion of any potentially dilutive securities to have an anti-dilutive effect, resulting in diluted weighted average loss per common share and basic weighted average loss per common share being equivalent.

The Successor Company recognized bad debt expense in the amount of approximately $12,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The Predecessor Company recognized bad debt expense (recovery) in the amount of approximately $21,100, ($2,300), and ($20,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2023, three months ended September 30, 2022, and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Accounts receivable – trade, net for the Predecessor Company as of January 1, 2022 and  September 30, 2022 were approximately $2.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

Receivables from covered entities represent the cost of inventory replenishments related to 340B contracts. Vendor credit receivables are timing differences of physical inventory returned to the vendor and the Company receiving the credit. Performance bonuses, paid annually by PBMs, are estimated based on historical pharmacy performance and prior payments received. Other receivables are loans to employees.

As of July 1, 2023, building, building improvements, and land were revalued at fair value as a result of the application of push-down accounting. See “Note 4. Business Combination” for a summary of amounts recognized for each major class of asset and liabilities, after application of push-down accounting.

Depreciation expense for the Successor Company was approximately $65,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Depreciation expense for the Predecessor Company was approximately $52,000, $33,000, and $97,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Note 11. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

As of September 30, 2023, goodwill increased to $3.1 million from $1.4 million as of December 31, 2022. The increase in goodwill was a result of the excess amount of the estimated enterprise value over the sum of the fair value amounts allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities as a result of the change in control on July 1, 2023.

As of July 1, 2023, intangible assets were revalued at fair value as a result of the application of push-down accounting. See “Note 4. Business Combination” for a summary of amounts recognized for each major class of asset and liabilities, after application of push-down accounting.

Amortization of intangible assets for the Successor Company was approximately $635,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Amortization of intangible assets for the Predecessor Company was approximately $24,400, $8,000, and $23,900 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The following table represents the total estimated future amortization of intangible assets:

The corresponding notes payable above are more fully discussed below:

(A) Convertible Note Payable – collateralized

NextPlat Investors

In August 2022, the Predecessor Company entered into the Modification Agreement with the NextPlat investors wherein the terms were modified for an existing Secured Convertible Promissory Note originally held by Iliad Research (the “Note”) and sold to the NextPlat investors (the “NextPlat Investors Note”). The NextPlat investors purchased the Note as part of a Confidential Note Purchase and Release Agreement between Iliad Research and the NextPlat investors. As of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”), the aggregate amount of principal and interest outstanding on the NextPlat Investors Note was approximately $2.8 million. As part of the Modification Agreement, the NextPlat investors agreed to modify the following terms of the NextPlat Investors Note:

On May 5, 2023, the Predecessor Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement (the “DCA”) with NextPlat and the other holders (the “Holders”) of the Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Promissory Note. Pursuant to the DCA, NextPlat and the other Holders agreed to modify and convert the total $2.9 million of outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest to Common Stock at a conversion price of $2.20 per share (the “Debt Conversion”) for a total of 1,312,379 shares. Additionally, the Predecessor Company issued 330,000 common stock purchase warrants to certain existing Progressive Care investors to induce them to approve the Debt Conversion (the “Inducement Warrants”). The Inducement Warrants were recorded at fair value as equity instruments. The Debt Conversion was recorded using inducement accounting and resulted in a total debt conversion expense of approximately $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Debt conversion expense consisted of debt issuance costs and debt discount of approximately $1.7 million, the fair value of the common stock purchase warrants issued of approximately $4.6 million, partially offset by the loss from inducement accounting of approximately $1.1 million. 

Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discount Associated with the NextPlat Investors Note - Predecessor Company

Debt issuance costs consisted of fees incurred from the Placement Agent and Investment Advisor associated with the NextPlat Investors Debt Modification Agreement. Debt discount consisted of the discount recorded from the issuance of approximately 105,000 shares of common stock to the NextPlat Investors as consideration for the Debt Modification Agreement. 

Debt issuance costs and debt discount were amortized to interest expense over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method. There was no amortization expense for debt issuance costs and debt discount for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Total amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was approximately $128,000.

As a result of the Debt Conversion, the remaining balance of debt issuance costs and debt discount of approximately $1.7 million at the date of the Debt Conversion was written off and recognized as part of debt conversion expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(B) Mortgage Note Payable – collateralized

In 2018, Pharmco 901 closed on the purchase of land and building located at 400 Ansin Boulevard, Hallandale Beach, Florida. The purchase price was financed in part through a mortgage note and security agreement entered into with a commercial lender in the amount of $1,530,000. The promissory note is collateralized by the land and building, bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.75% per annum, matures on December 14, 2028 and is subject to a prepayment penalty. Principal and interest will be repaid through 119 regular payments of $11,901 that began in January 2019, with the final payment of all principal and accrued interest not yet paid on December 14, 2028. Note repayment is guaranteed by Progressive Care Inc.

(C) Note Payable – Uncollateralized

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the uncollateralized note payable represents a noninterest-bearing loan that is due on demand from an investor.

(D) Notes Payable – Collateralized

In September 2019, the Predecessor Company entered into a note obligation with a commercial lender, the proceeds from which were used to pay off a capital lease obligation on pharmacy equipment in the amount of approximately $85,000. The terms of the promissory note payable require 48 monthly payments of $2,015, including interest at 6.5%. The balance outstanding on the note payable was due and paid in full during the third quarter of 2023 and no balance remains as of September 30, 2023. The balance outstanding on the note payable as of  December 31, 2022 was approximately $16,000.

In April 2021, the Predecessor Company entered into a note obligation with a commercial lender, the proceeds from which were used to purchase pharmacy equipment in the amount of approximately $30,000. During September 2021, pharmacy equipment was returned since the installation was cancelled and the note was amended. The amended promissory note payable requires 46 monthly payments of $331, including interest at 6.9%. The balance outstanding as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 on the note payable was approximately $6,500 and $9,000, respectively.

In July 2022, the Predecessor Company entered into a note obligation with a commercial lender, the proceeds from which were used to purchase pharmacy equipment in the amount of approximately $90,000. The terms of the promissory note payable require 60 monthly payments of $1,859, including interest at 8.78% starting January 2023. The balance outstanding on the note payable was approximately $78,000 and $90,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

In September 2022, the Predecessor Company entered into a note obligation with a commercial lender, the proceeds from which were used to purchase a vehicle in the amount of approximately $25,000. The terms of the promissory note payable require 24 monthly payments of $1,143, including interest at 8.29% starting October 2022. The balance outstanding on the note payable was approximately $13,000 and $22,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Principal outstanding as of September 30, 2023, is expected to be repayable as follows:

Interest expense on these notes payable for the Successor Company was approximately $15,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Interest expense on notes payable, exclusive of debt discount and debt issue cost amortization, for the Predecessor Company was approximately $82,000, $75,000, and $325,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Note 14. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, 100,000 shares are designated as Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 9,900,000 shares are undesignated preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share.

On August 30, 2022, pursuant to a SPA with NextPlat, the Predecessor Company sold 3,000 units wherein each unit is made up of one share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value, and Investor Warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $2,000. The Investor Warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, by means of a cashless exercise. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $2,000 per share and each Preferred Stock share has the equivalent voting rights of 500 common stock shares. Each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock determined by dividing the stated value by the conversion price of $4.00.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to our common stock as to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary. The shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall have a liquidation preference to all other class of stock of the Company in the amount of $2,000 per share. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the assets, whether capital or surplus, of the Company (i) $2,000 per share plus (ii) the same amount that a holder of common stock would receive if the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were fully converted to common stock which amounts shall be paid pari passu with all holders of common stock.

With respect to all matters upon which stockholders are entitled to vote or to which shareholders are entitled to give consent, the holders of the outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of common stock without regard to class, except as to those matters on which separate class voting is required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws. 

Common Stock and Common Stock Purchase Warrants

On December 29, 2022, the Predecessor Company effected a 1-for-200 reverse stock split of common stock and the number of shares of common stock authorized to issue was reduced to 100 million. All fiscal year 2022 common stock share information has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own common shares and whether the warrant holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

On May 5, 2023, the Predecessor Company entered into an SPA with NextPlat, pursuant to which NextPlat agreed to purchase 455,000 newly issued units of securities from the Predecessor Company (the “Units”) at a price per Unit of $2.20 for an aggregate purchase price of $1.0 million (the “Unit Purchase”). Each Unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Progressive Care (“Common Stock”) and one common stock purchase warrant to purchase a share of Common Stock (the “PIPE Warrants”). The PIPE Warrants have a three-year term and will be immediately exercisable. Each PIPE Warrant is exercisable at $2.20 per share of Common Stock. The Predecessor Company received cash proceeds of $880,000, net of placement agent commission of $70,000 and legal fees of $50,000. The Company accounted for the PIPE Warrants in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 480 and were classified as equity instruments. On the date of issuance, the fair value of the PIPE Warrants was approximately $1.0 million. On July 1, 2023, NextPlat exercised the PIPE Warrants on a cashless basis and was issued 230,056 common stock shares.

Also on May 5, 2023, the Predecessor Company entered into a DCA with NextPlat and the other Holders of that certain Amended and Restated Secured Convertible Promissory Note, dated as of September 2, 2022, made by the Predecessor Company in the original face amount of $2.8 million (the “Note”).
