MEDCOM
USA INCORPORATED
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 and 2007
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
MedCom
USA, Inc. (the "Company or MedCom") a Delaware corporation was formed in August
1991 under the name Sims Communications, Inc. The Company’s primary
business was providing telecommunications services. In 1996 the
Company introduced four programs to broaden the Company's product and service
mix: (a) cellular telephone activation, (b) sale of prepaid calling cards, (c)
sale of long distance telephone service and (d) rental of cellular telephones
using an overnight courier service. With the exception of the sale of
prepaid calling cards and cellular telephone activation, the other programs were
discontinued in December 1997. The Company changed its name to MedCom USA, Inc.
in October 1999. During the fiscal years of 1999 and continuing
through present, we have directed our efforts in medical information
processing.
NOTE 2. GOING
CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However,
the Company has year end losses from operations during the three months ended
December 31, 2008. During the three months ended December 31, 2008 the Company
incurred a net income of $182,620 and has an accumulated deficit of
$91,419,674. Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to
maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from private
investors and the support of certain stockholders.
These
factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as
a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. In this regard,
Management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds through loans
and additional sales of its common stock. There is no assurance that the Company
will be successful in raising additional capital.
NOTE 3. INTERIM
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The
accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the six months period ended December 31, 2008 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending

NOTE 4. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Summarized
below are the significant accounting policies of MedCom USA, Inc. (“we,”
“MedCom,” or the “Company”). Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in
these notes to the financial statements pertain to continuing
operations.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
We
prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation
of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our
management periodically evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management
bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various
factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual
results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or
conditions.
The
following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and
estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
Reclassifications
Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period
presentation for comparative purposes.
Accounting
Policies and Estimates
The
preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management to
make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Our management periodically
evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management bases its estimates and
judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to
be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these
estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions. As such,
in accordance with the use of accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, our actual realized results may differ from
management’s initial estimates as reported. A summary of significant
accounting policies are detailed in notes to the financial statements which are
an integral component of this filing.
Revenues
A sales
staff meets with a dental or medical professional. During that
initial meeting a demo is displayed so the professional has first hand knowledge
of the software and its use. At the time of the meeting a
noncancellable licensing agreement is executed along with a service
agreement. The license agreement indicates the life of the agreement
if the customer wants check readers, pin pads, portal wedge, etc. with the
software. These units allow the professional swipe a credit card and medical
card for the software to read.
The
professional executes the licensing agreement which states the terms for a
period of 24 – 60 month agreements, number of portal/units needed, at which
location the portals will be used, the monthly licensing amount, (which varies
per contract) type of contract whether dental or medical, the amount of the
gateway access fee usually $24.95 per month which includes provider enrollment,
EDI connectivity, and the monthly maintenance charges that are billed when used
as commercial benefit verification, Referral transactions, claims status,
service authorizations, maintenance, training, support, programs upgrades,
carrier additions, and customized reports. The professional then
provides MedCom a voided check or credit card number to automatically withdraw
or charge the licensing fee and gateway access fees on a monthly
basis. Also those automatic withdrawals include the maintenance
charges based upon usage. The professional also agrees to allow
MedCom to provide merchant services for Visa/MasterCard. MedCom
further agrees that the monthly fees charged for gateway access and licensing
fees will commence with in 10 day of the execution of the noncancellable
agreements.
We
recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,”
as modified by SOP 98-9 “Modifications of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions,” and interpreted by the
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 -
Revenue Recognition. The Company has also adopted Emerging Issues Task Force
(“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables.
We
recognize revenue on software related transactions on single element
arrangements and on each element of a multiple element arrangement, when all of
the following criteria are met:
1.
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which consists of a written,
non-cancelable contract signed by both parties;
2.
The fee is fixed or determinable when we have a signed contract that states the
agreed upon fee for our products and/or services, which specifies the related
payment terms and conditions of the arrangement and it is not subject to refund
or adjustment;
3.
Delivery occurs:
a. For
licenses - due to the Web nature of our software, when the software is shipped
to our customer. Our arrangements are typically not contingent upon the customer
providing the hardware; staff for training or scheduling conflicts in general
nor do our arrangements contain acceptance clauses;
b. Non
Software deliverables- when shipped to our customers;
c. For
access, authorization, verification and other services – ratably over the annual
service period.
d. For
post-contract customer support - ratably over the annual service
period.
e. For
professional services - as the services are performed for time and materials
contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price
contracts.
4.
Collection upfront cash received from contracts is probable as determined by a
credit evaluation, the customer’s payment history (either with other vendors or
with us in the case of follow-on sales and renewals) and financial
position.
Our
arrangements typically represent large value “multiple element” arrangements
where a multi-year term license is delivered in the first year with post
contract support (PCS) and certain professional services. PCS some
through the life of the contract includes technical support, maintenance,
enhancements and upgrades. In the first year, PCS is packaged with
the license and accordingly the Company allocates the arrangement fees to the
elements using the residual method which generally results in 63% of the first
year’ arrangement fee being allocated to license revenue. The Company
recognizes revenue from license fees when the software is shipped to the
customer. PCS subsequent to year one is optional and renewable at a
customer’s discretion on an annual basis. The PCS revenue
subsequent to year 1 is realized annually, upon customer acceptance, as deferred
revenue and recognized as revenue over the service period of one
year. Professional services include training and installation
services and are accounted for separately as they are not considered essential
to the functionality of the software.
We charge
various fees for other services as utilized by the customer. These services
include, but are not limited to, access fee, provider enrollment fees, EDI
connectivity fees, Payer/Provider fees, benefit verification fees, referral
transfer fees and service authorization fees.
Deferred
Revenue
Deferred
revenue result from fees billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been
recognized or for which the conditions of the arrangement have been modified.
Current deferred revenue generally represents PCS and training services not yet
rendered and deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are satisfied. Non-current
deferred revenue represents license fees which will be deferred until such
time as all SOP 97-2 requirements have been satisfied.
We have
adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
No. 104, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure
of revenue in financial statements.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2008,
cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the
bank.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful
lives of the assets using principally the straight-line method. When items are
retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the
difference between net book value and proceeds realized
thereon. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.
The range
of estimated useful lives used to calculated depreciation for principal items of
property and equipment are as follow:

Intangible
Assets
The
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective July 1, 2002. As a result, the
Company discontinued amortization of goodwill, and instead annually evaluates
the carrying value of goodwill for impairment, in accordance with the provisions
of SFAS No. 142. The Company holds one asset the cost basis of the development
of the patent infringement litigation.
Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and
equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for
impairment annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by
a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is
recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the
fair value of the asset. There were no events or changes in
circumstances that necessitated a review of impairment of long lived
assets.
Income
Taxes
Deferred
income taxes are provided based on the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting
for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), to reflect the tax consequences in future years
of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary
to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized.
Earnings Per
Share
Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution
that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock
were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock
that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of December 31,
2008, there were no potential dilutive instruments that could result in share
dilution.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The fair
value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a
forced sale or liquidation.
The
carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash,
accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable and related party
payable approximate fair value due to their most maturities.
Stock-Based
Compensation
Statements
of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS No.”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, (“SFAS No. 123”) established accounting and disclosure
requirements using a fair-value based method of accounting for stock-based
employee compensation. In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company has elected
to continue accounting for stock based compensation using the intrinsic value
method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees."
The
Company accounts for stock awards issued to nonemployees in accordance with the
provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No.
96-18 Accounting for Equity
Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in
Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services. Under SFAS No. 123
and EITF 96-18, stock awards to nonemployees are accounted for at their fair
value as determined under Black-Scholes option pricing model.
In
December 2004, the FASB issued a revision of SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS No. 123(R)")
that requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to
be recognized in the statement of operations. With limited exceptions, the
amount of compensation cost will be measured based on the grant-date fair value
of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition, liability awards
will be re-measured each reporting period. Compensation cost will be recognized
over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.
SFAS No. 123(R) replaces SFAS No. 123 and is effective as of the beginning of
January 1, 2006. Based on the number of shares and awards outstanding as of
December 31, 2005 (and without giving effect to any awards which may be granted
in 2006), we do not expect our adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) in January 2006 to
have a material impact on the financial statements.
In
October 10, 2006 FASB Staff Position issued Financial Statement Position (“FSP”)
FAS No. 123(R)-5 “Amended of FASB Staff Position FAS 123(R)-1 “Classification
and Measurement of Freestanding Financial Instruments Originally issued in
Exchange of Employee Services under FASB Statement No. 123(R)”. The
FAS provides that instruments that were originally issued as employee
compensation and then modified, and that modifications made to the terms of the
instrument solely to reflect an equity restructuring that occurs when the
holders are no longer employees, then no change in the recognition or the
measurement (due to a change in classification) of those instruments will result
if both of the following conditions are met: (a). There is no increase in fair
value of the award (or the ratio of intrinsic value to the exercise price of the
award is preserved, that is, the holder is made whole), or the antidilution
provision is not added to the terms of the award in contemplation of an equity
restructuring; and (b). All holders of the same class of equity instruments (for
example, stock options) are treated in the same manner. The provisions in this
FSP shall be applied in the first reporting period beginning after the date the
FSP is posted to the FASB website. The Company does not expect the adoption of
FSP FAS No. 123(R)-5 to have a material impact on its results of operations and
financial condition.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
Company maintains its operating cash balances in banks in Scottsdale,
Arizona. The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insures
accounts at each institution up to $250,000.
RECENT
PRONOUNCEMENTS
Determining
Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are
Participating Securities
In
June 2008, the FASB issued FSP Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue
No. 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment
Transactions Are Participating Securities.” The FSP addresses whether
instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating
securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings
allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method. The FSP
affects entities that accrue dividends on share-based payment awards during the
awards’ service period when the dividends do not need to be returned if the
employees forfeit the award. This FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of
FSP EITF 03-6-1 on its consolidated financial position and results of
operations.
Determining
Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an entity's Own
Stock
In June
2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, "Determining Whether an Instrument
(or an Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock" (EITF
07-5). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two step
approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded
feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument's
contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies on
the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based
employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. EITF
07-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of EITF 07-5 on
its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Accounting
for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion
(Including Partial Cash Settlement)
In
May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion
No. 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be
Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement).” The FSP
clarifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in
cash (including partial cash settlement) upon conversion. The FSP
requires issuers to account separately for the liability and equity components
of certain convertible debt instruments in a manner that reflects the issuer's
nonconvertible debt (unsecured debt) borrowing rate when interest cost is
recognized. The FSP requires bifurcation of a component of the debt,
classification of that component in equity and the accretion of the resulting
discount on the debt to be recognized as part of interest expense in our
consolidated statement of operations. The FSP requires retrospective
application to the terms of instruments as they existed for all periods
presented. The FSP is effective as of January 1, 2009 and early
adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact of FSP APB 14-1 upon its consolidated financial
statements.
The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles" (FAS No.162). SFAS No. 162 identifies the
sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles
used in the preparation of financial statements. SFAS No. 162 is
effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in
Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". The
implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Determination
of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
In April
2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of
Intangible Assets”, which amends the factors that should be considered in
developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of
intangible assets under SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets”. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the
useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period
of the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under
SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” and other U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. The Company is currently
evaluating the potential impact of FSP FAS No. 142-3 on its consolidated
financial statements.
Disclosure
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS No.
133”, (SFAS No.161). This statement requires that objectives for using
derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting
designation. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 161 on January 1, 2009.
The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of SFAS No. 161 on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Delay
in Effective Date
In
February 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 157”. This FSP delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for
all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are
recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually)
to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. The impact of adoption was not material to the
Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of
operations.
Business
Combinations
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R) “Business Combinations” (SFAS
141(R)). This Statement replaces the original SFAS No.
141. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS
No. 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS No. 141
called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an
acquirer to be identified for each business combination. The objective of SFAS
No. 141(R) is to improve the relevance, and comparability of the information
that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business
combination and its effects. To accomplish that, SFAS No. 141(R) establishes
principles and requirements for how the acquirer:
|
a.
|
Recognizes
and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired,
the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the
acquiree.
|
|
b.
|
Recognizes
and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain
from a bargain purchase.
|
|
c.
|
Determines
what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements
to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination.
|
This
Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the
acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting
period beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and may not be applied before
that date. The Company does not expect the effect that its adoption of SFAS No.
141(R) will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial
condition.
Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No.
51
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51” (SFAS No.
160). This Statement amends the original Accounting Review Board
(ARB) No. 51 “Consolidated Financial Statements” to establish accounting and
reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in
a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be
reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. This Statement is
effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and may not be applied before that
date. The does not expect the effect that its adoption of SFAS No.
160 will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial
condition.
Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of SFAS No.
115” (SFAS No. 159), which becomes effective for the Company on February 1,
2008, permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and
certain other items at fair value and report unrealized gains and losses in
earnings. Such accounting is optional and is generally to be applied instrument
by instrument. The Company does not anticipate that the election, of this
fair-value option will have a material effect on its consolidated financial
condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
NOTE 5. SHARE
CAPITAL
MedCom

ITEM
2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Management’s
Discussion and Analysis contains various “forward looking statements” within the
meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
regarding our future events or our future financial performance that involve
risks and uncertainties. Certain statements included in this quarterly report on
Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements related to anticipated cash
flow sources and uses, and words including but not limited to “anticipates”,
“believes”, “plans”, “expects”, “future” and similar statements or expressions,
identify forward looking statements. Any forward-looking statements herein are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties in our business, including but not
limited to, reliance on key customers and competition in its markets, market
demand, product performance, technological developments, maintenance of
relationships with key suppliers, difficulties of hiring or retaining key
personnel and any changes in current accounting rules, all of which may be
beyond our control. We adopted at management’s discretion, the most conservative
recognition of revenue based on the most astringent guidelines of the SEC in
terms of recognition of software licenses and recurring revenue. Management will
elect additional changes to revenue recognition to comply with the most
conservative SEC recognition on a forward going accrual basis as the model is
replicated with other similar markets (i.e. SBDC). Our actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as
a result of certain factors, including those set forth therein.
Forward-looking
statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our
actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from
those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks
that could affect our results and achievements and cause them to materially
differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those
identified in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008, as well as other factors that we
are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the
future.
In
addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of
operations, and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of

Overview
MedCom
USA, Inc. (the "Company, we, our"), a Delaware corporation, was formed in August
1991 under the name Sims Communications, Inc. Our prior primary
business was providing telecommunications services. In 1996 our
management introduced four programs to broaden the Company's product and service
mix: (a) cellular telephone activation, (b) sale of prepaid calling cards, (c)
sale of long distance telephone service and (d) rental of cellular telephones
using an overnight courier service. With the exception of the sale of
prepaid calling cards and cellular telephone activation, the other programs were
discontinued in December 1997. In October, 1999 we changed our name
to MedCom USA, Inc. During the fiscal years of 1999 and continuing
through present, we have directed our management’s efforts in medical
information processing.
MedCom
System
We
provide innovative web-based technology solutions for the healthcare industries
that enable medical providers to check patient eligibility and a variety of
financial services to efficiently collect patient co-pays and deductibles, The
MedCom System currently operates through a web-portal. We still
continue to support point-of-sale terminals which we have previously sold. All
new business is sold through its web-portal.
Management
contends that our “web portal” encourages customers to process their medical
claims through an online portal. Many customers purchase the
terminal for the front office and the portal system for the back office to take
advantage of the ease of both products.
Financial
Services
Our
credit card center and check services, provides the healthcare industry a
combination of services designed in management’s opinion to improve collection
and approvals of credit/debit card payments along with the added benefit and
convenience of personal check guarantee from financial
institutions.
Easy-Pay
is an accounts receivable management program that allows a provider to swipe a
patient’s credit card and store the patient’s signature in the terminals, and
bill the patient’s card at a later date when it is determined what services
rendered were not covered by the patient’s insurance. Also, Easy- Pay
allows patient’s the added benefit and convenience of a one-time payment option
or recurring installment payments that will be processed on a specified date
determined by the provider and patient. These options insure
providers that payments are timely processed with the features of electronic
accounts receivable management. These services are all deployed
through point-of-sale terminals or web portal. Using the MedCom
system, medical providers are relieved of many of the problems associated with
billings and account management, and results in lower administrative
documentation and costs.
Patient
Eligibility
The
MedCom System is also an electronic processing system that consolidates
insurance eligibility verification, and payment services. Presently,
the MedCom System is able to retrieve on-line eligibility information from over
450 medical insurance companies and plans in seconds Included in this
group is the newly activated Medicare Part A & B eligibility for all 50
states. Management believes that this gives us access to over 42
million lives. These insurance providers include CIGNA, Prudential,
Oxford Health Plan, United Health Plans, Blue Cross, Medicaid, Aetna, Blue
Cross/Blue Shield, and Prudential.
Competition
Competing
health insurance claims processing and/or benefit verification systems include
Emdeon and McKesson. There are similar companies that compete with
our company with respect to its financial transaction processing services
performed by the MedCom system. These companies compete with us
directly or to some degree. Many of these competitors are better
capitalized than we are and maintain a significant market share in their
respective industries.
Technical
Support Assistance
We offer
multiple training options for our products and services and are easily accessed
at www.medcomusa.com. Training
and teleconferencing, and technical support assistance are also features offered
to health care providers.
Marketing
Strategy
Our
management has broadened the marketing strategy to reduce cost and increase
efficiency. We recently completed our final phase of its portal
software development which has broadened the sales model to its Web
Portal. Our management believes that the completion of the portal
will increase sales to hospitals which results in multiple sales. In
addition, management contends that the portal has become popular for individual
doctors, dentist, and other healthcare professionals which often results in a
single or possibly multiple sales. Management has focused our sales
to hospitals as a growing revenue source.
In the
past we have built our marketing around a strategy of expanding our sales
capacity by using experienced external Independent Sales Organizations (ISO) and
putting less reliance on an internal sales force. We have set-up
these Independent Sales Organizations (ISOs) to market and distribute the MedCom
System throughout the U.S. Financial service companies comprise, in
managements’ opinion, an important sales channel that views the healthcare
industry as an important growth opportunity. Also, management
believes that 6% of all healthcare payments are made with a credit card today.
However, management has ascertained, but not verified, that according to a
recent survey 55% of all consumers would prefer to pay doctor and hospital
visits by credit/debit card.
We have
been expanding its position with hospitals and working closely with hospital
consultants and targeted seminars. With our new Online web portal
product and Medicare access, management contends that we are becoming an
increasingly valuable tool for the outpatient and faculty practice areas of
hospitals. While the ISO groups focus on individual doctors, dentists
and clinics, our hospital team is focusing on multiple unit sales opportunities
with hospitals around the country. We are working on acquiring strategic
companies with additional services and client bases to increase its market share
and revenue.
Patent
Card
Activation Technologies Inc. (“Card”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in
Chicago, Illinois that owns proprietary patented payment transaction technology
used for electronic activation of phone, gift and affinity
cards. MedCom owns approximately 53,000,000 shares of common stock of
Card which represents 32% of the issued and outstanding shares of
Card.
The
patent was transferred to Card by MedCom on the formation of Card and in
exchange for 146,770,504 shares of our Common Stock.
Card was
incorporated in August 2006 in order to own and license, the assigned patent
which covers payment transaction technology and the process for taking a card
with a magnetic strip or other data capture mechanism and processing
transactions or activating the card. This process is utilized for prepaid phone
cards, gift cards, and debit-styled cards. Card has one principal
asset, the patented payment transaction technology assigned from MedCom, and two
full-time employees. Card has begun to commence full scale operations or
generate additional revenues. Since incorporation, Card has not made any
significant purchases or sale of assets, nor has Card been involved in any
mergers, acquisitions or consolidations. Card has filed thirteen lawsuits
to enforce its patented technology and has sent license agreement requests to a
number of companies in order to obtain license agreements with entities that
Card believes are infringing its patent.
Card has
the ability to market and sell licensing opportunities for the patented
technology of processing debit-styled transactions, including processing
transactions with debit, phone and gift cards and also activating and adding
value to those debit-styled cards. New View Technologies, which was
acquired by MedCom USA, developed the patent and all patents were ultimately
assigned to Card.
Service
Agreements
During
June 2005, we entered into a service agreement with TESIA-PCI,
Inc. This agreement to replace and service and support POS terminals
inclusive of eligibly, claims processing, credit card processing for TESIA’s
dental providers.
Revenues
A sales
staff meets with a dental or medical professional. During that
initial meeting a demo is displayed so the professional has first hand knowledge
of the software and its use. At the time of the meeting a
noncancellable licensing agreement is executed along with a service
agreement. The license agreement indicates the life of the agreement
if the customer wants check readers, pin pads, portal wedge, etc. with the
software. These units allow the professional to swipe a credit card
and medical card for the software to read.
The
professional executes the licensing agreement which states the terms for a
period of 24 – 60 month agreements, number of portal/units needed, at which
location the portals will be used, the monthly licensing amount, (which varies
per contract) type of contract whether dental or medical, the amount of the
gateway access fee usually $24.95 per month which includes provider enrollment,
EDI connectivity, the monthly maintenance charges that are billed
when used as commercial benefit verification, Referral transactions, claims
status, service authorizations, maintenance, training, support, programs
upgrades, carrier additions, and customized reports. The professional
then provides us with a voided check or credit card number to automatically
withdraw or charge the licensing fee and gateway access fees on a monthly
basis. Also those automatic withdrawals include the maintenance
charges based upon usage. The professional also agrees to allow us to
provide merchant services for Visa/MasterCard. We further agree that
the monthly fees charged for gateway access and licensing fees will commence
with in 10 day so of the execution of the noncancellable
agreements.
We
recognize revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,”
as modified by SOP 98-9 “Modifications of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue
Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions,” and interpreted by the
Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 -
Revenue Recognition. We have also adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”)
Issue No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables.
We
recognize revenue on software related transactions on single element
arrangements and on each element of a multiple element arrangement, when all of
the following criteria are met:
1. Persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, which consists of a written, non-cancelable
contract signed by both parties;
2. The
fee is fixed or determinable when we have a signed contract that states the
agreed upon fee for our products and/or services, which specifies the related
payment terms and conditions of the arrangement and it is not subject to refund
or adjustment;
3. Delivery
occurs:
a. For
licenses - due to the Web nature of our software, when the software is shipped
to our customer. Our arrangements are typically not contingent upon the customer
providing the staff for training or scheduling and or conflicts in general, or
do our arrangements contain acceptance clauses;
b. Non
Software deliverables- when shipped to our customers;
c. For
access, authorization, verification and other services – ratably over the annual
service period.
d. For
post-contract customer support - ratably over the annual service
period.
e. For
professional services - as the services are performed for time and materials
contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price
contracts.
4.
Collection upfront cash received from contracts is probable as determined by a
credit evaluation, the customer’s payment history (either with other vendors or
with us in the case of follow-on sales and renewals) and financial
position.
Our
arrangements typically represent large value “multiple element” arrangements
where a multi-year term license is delivered in the first year with post
contract support (PCS) and certain professional services. PCS some
through the life of the contract includes technical support, maintenance,
enhancements and upgrades. In the first year, PCS is packaged with
the license and accordingly we allocate the arrangement fees to the elements
using the residual method which generally results in 63% of the first year’
arrangement fee being allocated to license revenue. We recognize
revenue from license fees when the software is shipped to the
customer. PCS subsequent to year one is optional and renewable at a
customer’s discretion on an annual basis. The PCS revenue
subsequent to year 1 is realized annually, upon customer acceptance, as deferred
revenue and recognized as revenue over the service period of one
year. Professional services include training and installation
services and are accounted for separately as they are not considered essential
to the functionality of the software.
We charge
various fees for other services as utilized by the customer. These services
include, but are not limited to, access fee, provider enrollment fees, EDI
connectivity fees, Payer/Provider fees, benefit verification fees, referral
transfer fees and service authorization fees.
Deferred
Revenue
Deferred
revenue result from fees billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been
recognized or for which the conditions of the arrangement have been modified.
Current deferred revenue generally represents PCS and training services not yet
rendered and deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are satisfied. Non-current
deferred revenue represents license fees which will be deferred until such
time as all SOP 97-2 requirements have been satisfied.
We have
adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB)
No. 104, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure
of revenue in financial statements.
Additional
Information
We file
reports and other materials with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. These documents may be inspected and copied at the
Commission’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC
20549. You can obtain information on the operation of the Public
Reference Room by calling the Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330. You can
also get copies of documents that the Company files with the Commission through
the Commission’s Internet site at www.sec.gov.
Results of
Operations
Revenues
for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased to $419,668 from $711,218
for the three months ended December 31, 2007 respectively. Revenues for the six
months ended December 31, 2008 decreased to 1,108,883 from $1,648,274 for the
six months ended December 31, 2007. This decrease in revenue is
directly the result of changes in our strategic direction in core
operations. Our management continues to aggressively pursue and
devote its resources and focus its direction in electronic medical transaction
processing. Our agreements with our credit facilities in
connection with the licensing of terminals and portal transactions therewith, we
must defer revenue on licensing agreement of the terminals and portal
software. However, with our new acquisition of asset we anticipate an
increase by the next quarter.
Cost of
deliverables for three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased to $248,349 from
$260,080 for three months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. Cost of deliverables for the six months ended
December 31, 2008 decreased to $420,729 from $591,685 for the six months ended
December 31, 2007. We have developed the MedComConnect portal package
that will decrease the cost of deliverables as the company focuses on the sale
of the portal software which rendered the medical terminals sales no longer the
core revenue model for us. The decrease in cost of deliverables is directly
related to the decrease in revenues from the two fiscal
years. Further we no longer pay commission or royalties on current
and future revenues from its noncancellable licensing
agreements. Commissions are paid at inception of the licensing
agreement at a 10% rate and there are no future payments on residuals revenues
from gateway access fees and licensing fees.
General
and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008
decreased to $277,646 from $517,576 for three months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. General and administrative for the six months ended
December 31, 2008 decreased to $684,735 from $1,138,507 for the six months ended
December 31, 2007. This decrease is attributed to our reduction of
workforce in their New York operations as we have streamlined overall employee
use. We have implemented and advanced its in-house software to
perform many of the services the prior employees were performing
manually. The decrease is related to settling outstanding litigation
which resulted decrease in legal fees. We do expect additional legal
expenses related to our pursuit of (9) causes of action against prior
management.
Selling
and marketing expenses for three months ended December 31, 2008 decrease to
$21,682 from $16,667 for three months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. Selling and marketing for the six months ended December
31, 2008 decreased to $82,122 from $33,467 for the six months ended December 31,
2007. This increase is primarily the result of additional expenses
related to prior managements expensing pilot fees and fuel costs of his
jet. We have been focused on the practice management and large dental
groups and should see the results of their efforts in the next
quarter.
Interest
expense for three months ended December 31, 2008 decrease to $27,813 from
$36,631 for the three months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. Interest expenses for the six months ended December 31,
2008 decreased to $49,005
from $236,050 for the six months ended December 31,
2007. LadCo Financing, Inc. and LeeCo Financial, Inc. are financing
companies that factor our receivable. LadCo factored our receivables
from the period of 2002 through 2005 and LeeCo factored our receivables from the
period of 2005 through 2007. The Company presently has their
receivables factored through North Shore Financial, Inc. This decrease is a
result of renegotiation of our credit facility with LeeCo and Ladco who was
charging a higher interest rate. Also, expenses were incurred and
paid on notes we have outstanding with LeeCo. Further our
renegotiation has reduced the accrual of interest below 3% until paid in full in
2009. We also have been paying down the LeeCo obligation which has
grown from the increase in financing through LeeCo Financial Inc. The
payments to Ladco represented a high interest rate and the Company has
systematically reduced the Ladco debt. We are presently investigating
the origin of these obligations to LeeCo and LadCo and believe that they are
invalid obligations dating back to 2002 through 2005 and later in
2006. Interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2008
decreased to $18,858 from $50,341 for the three months ended December 31, 2007,
respectively. Interest income for the six months ended December 31,
2008 decreased to $40,798 from $119,188 for the six months ended December 31,
2007. The decrease is due to the reduction in current sales of the
portal software from our license agreements. The licensing agreements
are noncancellable licensing of our portal software in which we charge interest
expense and interest income related to the life of the licensing
agreement.
The net
loss for three months ended December 31, 2008 was $182,620 from $69,395 for the
three months ended December 31, 2007, respectively. The net loss for
the six months ended December 31, 2008 decreased to $148,223 from $232,247 for
the six months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease is directly due
to the decrease in the sale of our core product and lack of funding our sales
and marketing team to increase the companies over all value. We have
further reduced royalty expense, commissions, and our operations in our New York
facility.
No tax
benefit was recorded on the expected operating loss for December 31, 2008 and
2007 as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. For the quarter ended we do not expect
to realize a deferred tax asset and it is uncertain, therefore we have provided
a 100% valuation of the tax benefit and assets until we are certain to
experience net profits in the future to fully realize the tax benefit and tax
assets.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our
operating requirements have been funded primarily on its sale of licensing
agreements with hospitals, medical and dental professionals and sales of our
common stock. During the six months ended December 31, 2008, our net
proceeds from the licensing of our software portals were $1,108,883 as compared
to 2007 of $1,648,274 respectively. We received $143,500 as compared
to 2007 of $958,001 in proceeds from the sale of common
stock. Management believes that the cash flows from its monthly
service and transaction fees are inadequate to repay the capital obligations and
has relied upon the sale of common stock through a private place to sustain its
operations.
Cash
provided by (used in) from operating activities for the six months ended
December 31, 2008 was $845,145 compared to ($1,072,796) for
2007. Management’s focus on core operations results in a decrease in
licenses receivable. We are focusing on core operations results in an
increase in licenses receivable. We receive payments from customers
automatically through electronic fund transfers. Collection cycles
are generally less than thirty days. We have grown its operations to
begin to reduce the deficit cash flow positions. However we are still
operating in a deficit.
Cash
provided by investing activities was $31,959 for six months ended December 31,
2008, compared to $300,851 for 2007. Streamlining operations and
capital budget curtailment practices promoted a reduction in equipment purchases
for our company. However, we continue to employ software development
teams that are upgrading the existing proprietary software in our terminal and
portal licensing agreements sold. We purchased equipment for six
months ended December 31, 2008 of $0.00 as compared to ($28,123) for December
31, 2007.
Cash
(used in) provided by financing activities was ($899,651) for the six months
ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $746,005 for 2007. Financing
activities primarily consisted of proceeds from the licensing of our software
portal transactions through our licensing agreements with hospitals and medical
and dental professionals. We do not have adequate cash flows to
satisfy its obligations although have improved cash flow and anticipates have
adequate cash flows in the upcoming fiscal period. We received
proceeds from the sale of our common stock for six months ended December 31,
2008 of $143,500 as compared to $958,001 for 2007. We are decreasing
our licensing debt for the six months ended December 31, 2008 of $269,431 as
compared to $646,932 for 2007. We are decreasing the cost of raising
capital which was $29,850 for the six months ended December 31, 2008 as compared
to $65,975 for 2007.
We had
funding agreements with LeeCo Financial Service Inc. and Ladco Financial Group
whom provide exclusive funding for the License agreement between the Licensing
and us. The funding groups accept contracts and adopt the same terms
and conditions that Licensing and we have agreed. In prior years
Ladco required to personally guarantee the licensing agreements which were a
financial burden to us. In Fiscal 2005, we no longer sought funding
through Ladco and have consistently sought the funding of
LeeCo. LeeCo does not require personal guarantees of licensing
agreements other then hospital agreements. LeeCo requires us to
personally guarantee the hospital agreements due to the size and volume of
transaction with the terminal and web portals. We believe that we
have no affiliation with our funding providers.
We expect
increased cash flow from its existing services fees which include transaction
processing, benefit claims processing, direct terminal sales, and credit card
processing. The decrease in cost of deliverables is directly related to the
sales through our telesales.
We are
looking at expanding the market for its services
and considering prospective acquisitions that would complement
the existing revenue model. We have investigated two possible
acquisitions but until due diligence is completed and negotiations have been
completed we will continue to look for possible new horizontal business
mergers.
On
September 14, 2006 we have renegotiated the Ladco debt. We have
agreed to pay penalties and late fees of $268,585.73 in exchange the
renegotiated balance would only carry an interest rate of 3% reduced from 26% in
the original note. We originally owed $3,015,063 and renegotiated the
balance to $3,880,500 which included the accrued penalties and late
fees. Further we would be able to pay the remaining balance of the
note for 39 months at $99,500 payments per month until paid in
full. Under the renegotiated note the note matures on October
2009.
LeeCo
agreement adopts the agreement that we execute with the
customer. LeeCo collects all funds through ACH and is paid from those
proceeds. The excess of those proceeds are collected by
us. LeeCo holds as collateral all the proceeds from the customer
leases, access fees and all cash collections and is secured from all assets of
ours.
The
licensing agreement is executed between the professional and the
MedCom. During the course of the agreement we ACH the accounts of the
professionals and LeeCo collects the fees and reduces the liability for the
licensing fees collected and returns any excess transaction fees to
us. The professional does not finance their agreement with LeeCo, we
finance the agreement. LeeCo is not a related party of
ours. The financing of the licensing agreement is calculated as part
of our revenue recognition process as the monthly collection of the licensing
fee is recorded against the outstanding balance. Revenue is not
recognized in excess of the cash received from our financing of the likening
agreement in accordance with SAB 101. The guarantees that are
provided in connection with the hospital agreements have not changed our revenue
recognition process except the accrual of the interest expense related to the
unpaid balances.
We have
renegotiated the credit facility with LEECO Financial Services in July,
2008. We have agreed to transfer 2,000,000 common shares of its
holdings in Card Activation Technologies, Inc. a Delaware Corporation
(“CDVT”). Commencing January 1, 2009, LEECO shall be permitted to
sell the CDVT stock in increments and shall promptly apply the proceeds from
such sales to discharge the LEECO Indebtedness, provided that LEECO shall not
sell in any given 30 day period more than a number of shares of CDVT stock that
is equal to the greater of 200,000 shares or 150% of the average daily trading
volume for such shares in the previous 30 day period provided the stock price is
over $2.00. These common stock sales will be offset against the
outstanding balance with LEECO Financial Services, Inc. We have been
in agreement to allocate the interest of $500,000 and payments over a period of
18 months effective September 1, 2008.
We are
further renegotiating our agreement with LADCO Financial Services,
Inc. Presently we have been making minimum payments to reduce our
structured debt agreement. LadCo and LeeCo believe that we have no
affiliation with the Company.
We are
uncertain the validity of licensing agreements entered into in prior years and
are investigating the validity of the obligations.
We now
have funding agreement with North Shore Financial Services that is not
affiliated with MedCom. North Shore does not require any personal
guarantee and collects all licensing fees directly through the process of ACH of
the individual doctor accounts. We finance our receivables with them
however; we continue to collect our servicing fees over the life of the
agreement. These agreements are also noncancellable agreements with
our medical and dental professionals.
Other
Considerations
There are
numerous factors that affect our business and the results of its operations.
Sources of these factors include general economic and business conditions,
federal and state regulation of business activities, the level of demand for the
Company’s product or services, the level and intensity of competition in the
medical transaction processing industry and the pricing pressures that may
result, in our ability to develop new services based on new or
evolving technology and the market’s acceptance of those new services, the
Company’s ability to timely and effectively manage periodic product transitions,
the services, customer and geographic sales mix of any particular period, and
the ability to continue to improve infrastructure including personnel and
systems, to keep pace with the growth in its overall business
activities.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not
hold any derivative instruments or other market risk sensitive instruments and
do not engage in any hedging activities. As a result, we have no exposure to
potential loss in future earnings, fair values or cash flows as a result of
holding any market risk sensitive instruments.
ITEM
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our
management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our
principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of the last
day of the fiscal period covered by this report, December 31, 2008. The term
disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that
are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules
and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,
controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive
and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company
and its independent registered public accounting firm identified certain
significant internal control deficiencies during their audit for the year ended
June 30, 2008. We considered this weakness, in the aggregate, to be a material
weakness. The primary concern was the preparation and allocation of
securities underlying certain stock subscriptions, severance agreements,
and asset purchase agreements. The other area of concern was the
proper allocation of the securities underlying the
agreements with the appropriate entity. These same issues have continued
through the quarter ended December 31, 2008. New management intends
to rectify these deficiencies. Management, at this time, believe these
concerns will not have a material impact on the financials presented herein and
do not require any restatement of past financials. If such restatement is
required, the Company will publish a Form 8-K regarding any restatement and file
amended financial statements. These same issues have continued through the
quarter ended December 31, 2008. Due to the size of our Company and the costs
associated to remediate these issues, we still consider these concerns to be
relevant. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our
principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures as of December 31, 2008 may not be effective due to possible material
weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting described below, and
other factors related to the Company’s financial reporting processes. The
Company is in the process of evaluating the internal controls and procedures to
ensure that the internal controls and procedures satisfy the criteria set forth
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)
in Internal Control — Integrated Framework.
.Our
principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, are responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f).
Management is required to base its assessment of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting on a suitable, recognized control
framework, such as the framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations (COSO). The COSO framework, published in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework, is known as the COSO Report. Our principal executive officer
and our principal financial officer, have has chosen the COSO framework on which
to base its assessment.
Management’s
report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit us to provide only management’s report in our annual reports on Form 10-K
for the annual reporting periods through June 30, 2009.
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the last quarter of 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our
principal executive officer and our principal financial officer’s, report was
not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm
pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual
report.
It should
be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can
provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the
system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part
upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of
these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
CHANGES
IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During
the quarter December 31, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control
over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
LACK
OF AUDIT COMMITTEE
Management
is aware that an audit committee composed of the requisite number of independent
members along with a qualified financial expert has not yet been established.
Considering the costs associated with procuring and providing the infrastructure
to support an independent audit committee and the limited number of
transactions, Management has concluded that the risks associated with the lack
of an independent audit committee are not justified. Management will
periodically reevaluate this situation.
LACK
OF SEGREGATION OF DUTIES
Management
is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the
small number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial
matters. However, at this time management has decided that considering the
abilities of the employees now involved and the control procedures in place, the
risks associated with such lack of segregation are low and the potential
benefits of adding employees to clearly segregate duties do not justify the
substantial expenses associated with such increases. Management will
periodically reevaluate this situation
New
management is actively investigating and correcting these internal control
deficieancies since their appointment as officers and/or directors as of January
23, 2009.
PART
II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM
1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The
Company and its related party Card Activation Technologies, Inc. are Plaintiffs
in a law suit filed against prior management William P. Williams, Eva S.
Williams; Wilcom, Inc., a Texas Corporation; WPW Aircraft LLC an Arizona Limited
Liability Corporation; and American Nortel Communications, Inc., a Nevada
Corporation in Case No. 2:09-cv-00298 filed in the United States District Court
in the District of Arizona. The Company has alleged (9) nine causes of action
including but not limited to securities violation of Section 10 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, thereunder Rule 10b-5 and we are uncertain the
legal costs associated with this suit or its outcome.
Also
MedCom is involved in various other legal proceedings and claims as described in
our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2008. No material developments
occurred in any of these proceedings during the quarter ended December 31, 2008.
The costs and results associated with these legal proceedings could be
significant and could affect the results of future operations.
ITEM 1A
- Risk Factors
You
should carefully consider the following risk factors before making an investment
decision. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial
condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In
such cases, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose
all or a part of your investment.
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO PENNY STOCK REGULATION
Our
shares are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly
referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain
requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates
the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has
a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule
3a51-1
provides that any equity security is considered to be penny stock unless that
security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting
specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on the NASDAQ
Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the
definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the registrant's
net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. Since
our shares are deemed to be "penny stock", trading in the shares will be subject
to additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny stock
to persons other than established customers and accredited
investors.
WE
MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT CAPITAL TO PURSUE OUR LITIGATION AND THEREFORE
WOULD BE UNABLE TO ACHIEVE OUR PLANNED FUTURE GROWTH:
We intend
to pursue a growth strategy that includes development of the Company business
and technology. Currently we have limited capital which is insufficient to
pursue our plans for development and growth. Our ability to implement our growth
plans will depend primarily on our ability to obtain additional private or
public equity or debt financing. We are currently seeking additional capital.
Such financing may not be available at all, or we may be unable to locate and
secure additional capital on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us. Our
failure to obtain additional capital will have a material adverse effect on our
business.
OUR
LACK OF DIVERSIFICATION IN OUR BUSINESS SUBJECTS INVESTORS TO A GREATER RISK OF
LOSSES:
All of
our efforts are focused on the development and growth of that business and its
technology in an unproven area. Although the medical billing is substantial, we
can make no assurances that the marketplace will accept our
products.
WE
DO NOT INTEND TO PAY DIVIDENDS
We do not
anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends. Even if funds are
legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide in our sole
discretion not to pay dividends. The declaration, payment and amount of any
future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and
will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows
and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors
our board of directors may consider relevant. There is no assurance that we will
pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are rapid, there is no
assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.
BECAUSE
WE ARE QUOTED ON THE OTCBB INSTEAD OF AN EXCHANGE OR NATIONAL QUOTATION SYSTEM,
OUR INVESTORS MAY HAVE A TOUGHER TIME SELLING THEIR STOCK OR EXPERIENCE NEGATIVE
VOLATILITY ON THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR STOCK.
Our
common stock is traded on the OTCBB. The OTCBB is often highly illiquid, in part
because it does not have a national quotation system by which potential
investors can follow the market price of shares except through information
received and generated by a limited number of broker-dealers that make markets
in particular stocks. There is a greater chance of volatility for securities
that trade on the OTCBB as compared to a national exchange or quotation system.
This volatility may be caused by a variety of factors, including the lack of
readily available price quotations, the absence of consistent administrative
supervision of bid and ask quotations, lower trading volume, and market
conditions. Investors in our common stock may experience high fluctuations in
the market price and volume of the trading market for our securities. These
fluctuations, when they occur, have a negative effect on the market price for
our securities. Accordingly, our stockholders may not be able to realize a fair
price from their shares when they determine to sell them or may have to hold
them for a substantial period of time until the market for our common stock
improves.
FAILURE
TO ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN EFFECTIVE INTERNAL CONTROLS IN ACCORDANCE
WITH SECTION 404 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT COULD HAVE A MATERIAL
ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS.
It may be
time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the
additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures required by the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal
auditing and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate
additional internal controls, processes and reporting procedures. If we are
unable to comply with these requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not
be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires of publicly traded companies.
If we
fail to comply in a timely manner with the requirements of Section 404 of
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to
remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify,
such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements,
cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and
have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.
Pursuant
to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations,
beginning with our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal period ending
December 31, 2007, we will be required to prepare assessments regarding
internal controls over financial reporting and beginning with our annual report
on Form 10-K for our fiscal period ending December 31, 2008, furnish a
report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. We
have begun the process of documenting and testing our internal control
procedures in order to satisfy these requirements, which is likely to result in
increased general and administrative expenses and may shift management time and
attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. While our
management is expending significant resources in an effort to complete this
important project, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve our
objective on a timely basis. There also can be no assurance that our auditors
will be able to issue an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Failure to
achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment or complete our
Section 404 certifications could have a material adverse effect on our
stock price.
In
addition, in connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting, we may discover “material weaknesses”
in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB. A material weakness is a
significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results
in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The PCAOB
defines “significant deficiency” as a deficiency that results in more
than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements
that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or
detected.
In the
event that a material weakness is identified, we will employ qualified personnel
and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any material
weaknesses that we identify. However, the process of designing and implementing
effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to
anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory
environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of
internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a
public company. We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will
remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement
and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the
future.
Any
failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial
reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to
implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their
implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our
reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial
statements. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of the
periodic management evaluations of our internal controls and, in the case of a
failure to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify, would
adversely affect the annual auditor attestation reports regarding the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting that are required
under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Inadequate internal controls
could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial
information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our
common stock.
THE
REPORT OF OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM CONTAINS EXPLANATORY
LANGUAGE THAT SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT EXISTS ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING
CONCERN
The
independent auditor’s report on our financial statements contains explanatory
language that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going
concern. The report states that we depend on the continued contributions of our
executive officers to work effectively as a team, to execute our business
strategy and to manage our business. The loss of key personnel, or their failure
to work effectively, could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations. If we are unable to obtain
sufficient financing in the near term or achieve profitability, then we would,
in all likelihood, experience severe liquidity problems and may have to curtail
our operations. If we curtail our operations, we may be placed into bankruptcy
or undergo liquidation, the result of which will adversely affect the value of
our common shares.
OPERATING
HISTORY AND LACK OF PROFITS WHICH COULD LEAD TO WIDE FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR SHARE
PRICE. THE PRICE AT WHICH YOU PURCHASE OUR COMMON SHARES MAY NOT BE INDICATIVE
OF THE PRICE THAT WILL PREVAIL IN THE TRADING MARKET. YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL
YOUR COMMON SHARES AT OR ABOVE YOUR PURCHASE PRICE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN
SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES TO YOU. THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR
COMMON SHARES IS PARTICULARLY VOLATILE GIVEN OUR STATUS AS A RELATIVELY UNKNOWN
COMPANY WITH A SMALL AND THINLY TRADED PUBLIC FLOAT, LIMITED
The
market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility
when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will
continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future.
The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First,
as noted above, our common shares are sporadically and thinly traded. As a
consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small
quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the
price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for
example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common
shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a
seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on
its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our
limited operating history and lack of profits to date, and uncertainty of future
market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced
risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of
their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more
inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater
discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. Many of
these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our
common shares, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any
predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common
shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will
sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of
shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on
the prevailing market price.
Shareholders
should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for
penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such
patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few
broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
(2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and
sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices
involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by
inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask
differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale
dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have
been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable
collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is
aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.
Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the
market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will
strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described
patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence
of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share
price.
VOLATILITY
IN OUR COMMON SHARE PRICE MAY SUBJECT US TO SECURITIES LITIGATION, THEREBY
DIVERTING OUR RESOURCES THAT MAY HAVE A MATERIAL EFFECT ON OUR PROFITABILITY AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
As
discussed in the preceding risk factors, the market for our common shares is
characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers,
and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a
seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often
initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods
of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may in the future be the
target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial
costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and
resources.
