  2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company at the dates and for the periods indicated. The interim results for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full 2018 fiscal year or any other future interim periods. As such, the information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of Mynd, its wholly owned subsidiary, Arcadian Services, one professional association, Arcadian Telepsychiatry (“PA”) which is located in Texas, and one professional corporation, Arcadian Telepsychiatry P.C. (“PC”) which is located in Pennsylvania, collectively the “entities.”

 

Arcadian Services is party to Management Services Agreements by and among it and the entities pursuant to which each entity provides services to Arcadian Services.  Each entity is established pursuant to the requirements of its respective domestic jurisdiction governing the corporate practice of medicine.

 

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Variable Interest Entities (VIE)

 

On November 13, 2017, Arcadian Services entered into a management and administrative services agreement with Arcadian Telepsychiatry PA (“PA”) which is located in Texas, for an initial fixed term of 20 years. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, PA is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) and MYnd is the primary beneficiary with the ability to direct the activities (excluding clinical decisions) that most significantly affect PA’s economic performance through its majority representation of the PA; therefore, PA is consolidated by MYND.

 

On November 13, 2017, Arcadian Services entered into a management and administrative services agreement with Arcadian Telepsychiatry P.C. (“PC”) which is located in Pennsylvania, for an initial fixed term of 20 years. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance, PC is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity and MYnd is the primary beneficiary with the ability to direct the activities (excluding clinical decisions) that most significantly affect PC’s economic performance through its majority representation of PC; therefore, PC is consolidated by MYND.

 

The Company holds a variable interest in the entities, which contract with physicians and other health professionals in order to provide services to Arcadian Services. The entities are considered variable interest entity since they do not have sufficient equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. An enterprise having a controlling financial interest in a VIE must consolidate the VIE if it has both power and benefits—that is, it has (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance (power) and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that potentially could be significant to the VIE (benefits). The Company has the power and rights to control all activities of the entities and funds and absorbs all losses of the VIE.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of furniture and equipment, intangible assets, valuation allowance on deferred taxes, valuation of equity instruments, and accrued liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

 

Cash

 

The Company deposits its cash with major financial institutions and may at times exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000.  At December 31, 2017 cash exceeds the federally insured limit by $2,346,600.  The Company believes that the risk of loss is minimal. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses related to cash deposits with financial institutions. 

 

Debt Instruments

 

Debt instruments are initially recorded at fair value, with coupon interest and amortization of debt issuance discounts recognized in the statement of operations as interest expense at each period end while such instruments are outstanding.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, ASC 825-10 - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. The Company considers the carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to approximate their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

 

The Company also analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480-10, ASC 815-10 and ASC 815-40.

 

The Company adopted ASC 820-10 on January 1, 2008. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

  Level I inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

 

  Level II inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments; and

 

  Level III inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

 

The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2017 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

 

    Level I   Level II   Level III   Total
Long-term borrowings   $       559,700     $       559,700  

 

The changes in carrying amounts of the debt for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were as follows:

 

    December 31,
2017
  December 31,
2016
Beginning balance   $     $  
Debt acquired through acquisition     555,000        
Accretion of debt discount     4,700        
Ending balance   $ 559,700     $  

 

Liabilities were fair valued in connection with the business combination will not be fair valued going forward.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company estimates the collectability of customer receivables on an ongoing basis by reviewing past-due invoices and assessing the current creditworthiness of each customer.  Allowances are provided for specific receivables deemed to be at risk for collection which as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 are $1,600 and $1,000, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and Equipment, which are recorded at cost, consist of office furniture and equipment which are depreciated, over their estimated useful life on a straight-line basis.  The useful life of these assets is estimated to be between three and five years.  Depreciation expense on furniture and equipment for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $12,400 and $700, respectively.  Accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 was $96,600 and $84,200, respectively.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

As required by ASC 350-30 - Intangibles — Goodwill and other (formerly SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets), the Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value. No impairment loss was recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. 

 

Intangible Assets 

 

Costs for software developed for internal use are accounted for through the capitalization of those costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Capitalized costs for internal-use software are included in intangible assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over three years. Costs incurred during the preliminary project along with post-implementation stages of internal use computer software development and costs incurred to maintain existing product offerings are expensed as incurred. The capitalization and ongoing assessment of recoverability of development costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological and economic feasibility and estimated economic life. At December 31, 2017, the Company had $80,500 in capitalized software development costs. The Company started amortizing the software over its estimated economic life once it was placed into service in September 2016. Amortization was $6,700 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and $6,700 for the three months ended December 31, 2016.  Accumulated amortization on the intellectual property was $35,800 and $29,100 at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 respectively.

 

On November 23, 2011, the Company acquired intellectual property in the form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) biomarkers at a cost of $21,200 which was recorded at cost and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years on a straight-line basis. Amortization was $500 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and $500 for the three months ended December 31, 2016.  Accumulated amortization on the intellectual property was $12,900 and $12,400 at December 31, 2017 and at September 30, 2017, respectively.

 

On November 13, 2017, the Company acquired customer relationship and tradename intangibles in connection with the Arcadian Services acquisition at $109,000 which was recorded at fair value and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of four years on a straight-line basis. Amortization was $3,700 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and $0 for the three months ended December 31, 2016.  Accumulated amortization on the intellectual property was $3,700 and $0 at December 31, 2017 and at September 30, 2017, respectively.

  

The expected amortization of the intangible assets, as of December 31, 2017, for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

 

      For the fiscal years ending
September 30,
 
2018 (for the remaining nine months)     $ 44,300  
2019       51,700  
2020       29,400  
2021       29,400  
2022       3,500  
Total     $ 158,300  

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identified net assets of businesses acquired. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are measured at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The Company does not amortize goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives.

 

The Company reviews goodwill at least annually, or at the time a triggering event is identified for possible impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for possible impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. The Company tests its goodwill each year on September 30th. The Company reviews the carrying value of goodwill utilizing an income approach model, and, where appropriate, a market value approach is also utilized to supplement the discounted cash flow model. The Company makes assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, discount rates, long-term growth rates and market values to determine each reporting unit’s estimated fair value. If these estimates or related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges. At December 31, 2017, the Company did not record any Goodwill impairment. The Goodwill balance was $1,386,800 as of December 31, 2017 and $0 as of December 31, 2016, respectively.

 

Accrued Compensation

 

Accrued compensation consists of accrued vacation pay, accrued bonuses granted by the Board but not paid, and accrued pay due to staff members.

 

Accrued compensation – related parties consists of accrued vacation pay, accrued bonuses granted by the Board but not paid for officers and directors.

 

Deferred Revenue

 

Deferred revenue represents cash collected in advance of services being rendered but not earned as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017. This represents a philanthropic grant for the payment of PEER Reports ordered in a clinical trial for a member of the U.S. Military, a veteran or their family members, the cost of which is not covered by other sources. These deferred revenue grant funds total $45,900 as of December 31, 2017 and at September 30, 2017.

 

Revenues

 

The Company recognizes revenue on services, in accordance with the ASC No. 605, “Revenue Recognition”. Revenue is recognized when we have persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a determinable fee, collection is considered to be reasonably assured and the services are delivered.

  

Research and Development Expenses

 

The Company charges research and development expenses to operations as incurred.

 

Advertising Expenses

 

The Company charges all advertising expenses to operations as incurred. For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 advertising expenses were $151,000 and $0, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company has adopted ASC 718-20 and related interpretations which establish the accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under ASC 718-20, share-based compensation cost for employees, directors and consultants is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. The expense is recognized over the option grantees’ requisite service period, generally the vesting period of the award.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into legislation. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the Tax Cuts and Job Act on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for Fiscal 2018 and cannot be determined with certainty at this time because of a blended rate. Any impact against the Company’s gross deferred tax asset will be offset by a 100% valuation allowance, therefore the Company expects no material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company will continue to review the components of the Tax Cuts and Job Act and its related regulations and evaluate their impact to its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for Fiscal 2018.

 

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, the Company has analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions.  We have identified U.S. Federal and California as our major tax jurisdictions.  Generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 through 2016 U.S. federal income tax returns, and remain subject to California Franchise Tax Board examination of our 2012 through 2016 California Franchise Tax Returns.  We have certain tax attribute carryforwards which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

 

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position.  Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740.  Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes.

 

Noncontrolling Interest

 

The Company consolidates entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. The Company consolidates subsidiaries in which the Company holds, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights, and variable interest entities (VIEs) in which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent third-party equity ownership interests in the Company’s consolidated entities. The amount of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended December 31, 2017 was $0. There was no equity or losses for the three months ended December 31, 2017.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised and converted into Common Stock.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Apart from the below-mentioned recent accounting pronouncements, there are no new accounting pronouncements that are currently applicable to the Company.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, ASU, ASU 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-9) and has subsequently issued a number of amendments to ASU 2014-9. The new standard, as amended, provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will be effective for us beginning October 1, 2018 and permits two methods of adoption: the full retrospective method, which requires the standard to be applied to each prior period presented, or the modified retrospective method, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-9 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet selected the transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the method and timing of its adoption and impact of adopting this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires that a lessee recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and will be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This ASU may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The impact on the Company’s results of operations is currently being evaluated.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-9, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures, and classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The guidance will be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted, dependent upon the specific amendment that is adopted within the ASU. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material effect on the consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and financial position. The Company adopted the guidance on October 1, 2017 and chose to prospectively apply the guidance in its financial statements.

  

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). Restricted Cash: this update clarifies how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance requires a reconciliation of totals in the statement of cash flows to the related cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash captions in the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on October 1, 2017.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This guidance narrows the definition of a business. This standard provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. This guidance must be applied prospectively to transactions occurring within the period of adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and prospectively applied ASU 2017-01 as required with no impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, instead requiring an entity to recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the goodwill carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. This guidance is effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. This guidance must be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and prospectively applied ASU 2017-04 as required with no impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-9, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting,” to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 to a change to the terms and conditions of a stock-based payment award. ASU 2017-9 also provides guidance about the types of changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award that require an entity to apply modification accounting in accordance with Topic 718. For all entities, including emerging growth companies, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted the guidance on October 1, 2017 and there is no impact on the financial statements.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued a two-part ASU 2017-11, I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments With Down Round Features and II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11 amends guidance in FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The amendments in Part I of ASU 2017-11 change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. The amendments in Part II of ASU 2017-11 re-characterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. ASU 2017-11 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-11 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and retrospectively applied ASU 2017-11 as required with no impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
