.
In November 2007, our Board of Directors approved a change to our fiscal year end from
January 31 to September 30. In view of this change, we filed a Transition Report on Form 10-KT
for the eight-month period ended September 30, 2007 (the
Transition Period Ended September
30, 2007
) on January 15, 2008. A Form 10-KT/A amendment to that report was filed on
February 11, 2008. Since that time, we filed a Form 10-K for each of the fiscal years ended
September 30, 2008 (the
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
) and September 30, 2009
(the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009) on January 12, 2009 and January 12, 2010
respectively. This Form 10-K report covers the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2010 and
the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2009, with additional information on other fiscal
years, as required by SEC rules and regulations.
Information in this Form 10-K is current as of January 31, 2011 unless otherwise specified.
COMPANY BACKGROUND
We were originally incorporated in Nevada in October 1980 and re-incorporated in Delaware in
November 2000. From 2001 to November 2004, we provided Fortune 500 and Global 500 companies with
customizable and comprehensive business process outsourcing (
BPO
) solutions into and
across the Asia-Pacific region. In November 2004, our active business operations ceased with the
sale of our BPO operations in Asia.
On December 16, 2005, at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to amend
our Certificate of Incorporation to change our legal name from Vsource, Inc. to Tri-Isthmus
Group, Inc. (
TIGroup
) and to reduce the number of authorized shares of our common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
Common Stock
), from 500,000,000 shares to
100,000,000 shares, as described in our Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on November
28, 2005. The reduction of the number of authorized shares of our Common Stock did not affect the
number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
During the Fiscal Year Ended January 31, 2007 (the
Fiscal Year Ended January 31,
2007
), we resumed active operations following the acquisition of two ambulatory surgical
centers located in Southern California. On December 2, 2005, through newly created indirect
subsidiaries, we entered into two separate purchase agreements to acquire from Surgical Ventures,
Inc., a California corporation, a controlling interest in two separate outpatient surgical
centers in San Diego, California, Point Loma Surgical Center, L.P. and Outpatient Surgery of Del
Mar, L.P. and we completed these acquisitions on November 16, 2006. On February 9, 2007, we
converted these limited partnerships into Outpatient Surgery of Point Loma, L.L.C. (
Point
Loma
) and Outpatient Surgery of Del Mar, L.L.C. (
Del Mar
,) and, together with
Point Loma, the (
San Diego ambulatory surgical centers
), respectively. In June 2007,
we consolidated the operations of the San Diego ambulatory surgical centers at the Del Mar
facility.
3
On October 29, 2007, we acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Rural
Hospital Acquisition, LLC,
an Oklahoma limited liability company (
RHA
). Based in Oklahoma City, RHA owns
and operates three critical access hospitals, one medical clinic and an ancillary support
services unit, all focused on the delivery of healthcare services to rural communities in
Oklahoma. On May 1, 2008, RHA Anadarko, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of RHA, purchased 100% of
the issued and outstanding membership interests of Southern Plains Medical Center (
SPMC
). Founded in 1915, SPMC is one of the oldest continuously operating multi-specialty physician
practices in the United States. Located in Chickasha, Oklahoma, SPMCs 15 physicians and other
licensed healthcare providers deliver primary and specialty care in the following areas: family
medicine; pediatrics; internal medicine; acute care; occ/med; general surgery; gynecology;
ophthalmology; orthopedic surgery; radiology; oncology; cardiology and urology. Ancillary
services provided onsite include imaging (computer-assisted tomography (
CT
), magnetic
resonance imaging (
MRI
), mammography, x-ray, EKG, vascular and ultra-sound bone
densitometry) and laboratory services. SPMC also provides urgent care services outside of normal
business hours seven days a week through its Quick Care department. Beginning November 18,
2008, RHA began operating under the trade name Southern Plains Medical Group. On December 11,
2008, we acquired the remaining 49% of the issued and outstanding membership units of RHA, making
RHA an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.
On December 12, 2008, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into three loan agreements,
effective November 6, 2008, with two Oklahoma-based lenders, Canadian State Bank and Valliance
Bank, resulting in an aggregate debt financing of $8.4 million. We obtained the financing to
purchase the building and real property of the Stroud Regional Medical Center Hospital and
clinics, refinance existing loans totaling $4.6 million, upgrade facilities at the Johnston
Memorial Hospital and improve the consolidated balance sheet and maintain general working
capital. The loans are evidenced by promissory notes issued by RHA Anadarko, LLC, RHA Stroud, LLC
and RHA Tishomingo, LLC, two of which mature on November 6, 2028 and one of which matures on
November 6, 2024.
On May 1, 2009, we purchased The Chandler Clinic (
TCC
), a family medical practice
located in Chandler, Oklahoma. TCC is located within the service area of the Stroud Regional
Medical Center.
On September 29, 2009, at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to
amend our Certificate of Incorporation to change our legal name from Tri-Isthmus Group, Inc. to
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. to reflect our focus on the healthcare industry. We became
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. on September 29, 2009.
CURRENT OPERATIONS
Following the sale of our BPO operations in November 2004, we reduced our headcount
significantly to a two-person staff when David Hirschhorn and Todd Parker joined us as our
Co-Chief Executive Officers in July 2005. Our new management initiated a growth strategy defined
by acquisitions. Our management team and Board of Directors have been and are currently comprised
of a group of individuals with complementary talents across a broad range of disciplines,
including mergers and acquisitions, finance and operations.
During the Fiscal Years Ended January 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, our management team
focused our acquisition strategy on the healthcare industry.
In December 2006, we resumed active operations following the acquisition of the San Diego
ambulatory surgical centers.
In 2007, we refined our acquisition strategy to focus on the delivery of financial and
managerial services to healthcare facilities in non-urban markets.
In September 2007, David Hirschhorn became our sole Chief Executive Officer upon Todd
Parkers resignation. Dennis M. Smith, formerly a director and senior consultant to us, re-joined
us as our Chief Financial Officer. On October 9, 2008, Mr. Smiths employment agreement with us
was terminated. Effective January 26, 2009, Mr. Smith ceased to be our Chief Financial Officer.
Upon the termination of his employment agreement, Mr. Smith had certain contractual rights,
pursuant to which we continued to pay Mr. Smith until April 9, 2009. Mr. Smith was offered a
severance package to continue his pay beyond April 9, 2009 in recognition for past services
rendered, and Mr. Smith accepted the severance package which entitled him to severance payments
which began May 10, 2009 and lasted until October 20, 2009. Mr. Smith had and has no
disagreements with us on any matter related to our operations, policies or practices. On March 3,
2009, Mr. Smith resigned as a member of our Board of Directors.
In November 2008, we appointed Thomas Rice as President of RHA. Mr. Rice has over 37 years
experience in the administration and operation of healthcare facilities, including key senior
management positions with major Oklahoma-based healthcare services companies. Also in November
2008, we announced the addition of Donald C. Parkerson as Chief Financial Officer of RHA, a
position he held until June 2009 when he ceased acting as the CFO of RHA. On January 30, 2009,
Mr. Parkerson was also appointed as our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Parkerson has served in
financial leadership positions with companies in healthcare businesses during his more than
30-year career. In November 2008, we hired Richard Rentsch as Vice President of Finance of RHA,
and currently he serves as the Chief Accounting Officer of RHA. Mr. Rentsch is an experienced
financial leader with more than 25 years of healthcare experience.
4
Our support staff at RHAs hospitals and Del Mar consists of registered nurses, operating
room technicians, an administrator who supervises the day-to-day activities of the surgery center
and a small number of office staff. Each operating unit also has appointed a medical director,
who is responsible for and supervises the quality of medical care provided at the center. Use of
our surgery centers is limited to licensed physicians. With the acquisition of SPMC in May 2008,
we added 15 physicians and other healthcare providers to our team at RHA as employees. Our
business depends upon the efforts and success of these physicians and non-employee physicians who
provide medical services at our facilities. Our business could be adversely affected by the loss
of our relationship with, or a reduction in use of our facilities by, a key physician or group of
physicians.
As discussed above, in December 2008, RHA became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours
with the acquisition by RHA of the interests not already held by us.
On January 13, 2010, Southern Plains Medical Center, Inc., our wholly-owned indirect
subsidiary and an Oklahoma corporation (
SPMC
), entered into a sale/leaseback
transaction pursuant to a purchase agreement, whereby SPMC sold certain property to Southern
Plains Associates, LLC (SPA). SPA is an Oklahoma limited liability company, in which our
wholly-owned subsidiary, First Physicians Realty Group, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability
company owns 50% and Capital Investors of Oklahoma, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company
own the other 50%.
The purchase price for the sale/leaseback transaction was paid to SPMC as follows: (i)
$1,500,000 was paid in the form of a promissory note, dated January 13, 2010, and (ii) $4,500,000
was paid in cash at the closing. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, First Physicians Realty Group, LLC,
an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA, and Capital Investors of Oklahoma, LLC,
an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA.
In connection with the purchase agreement, SPMC leased back from SPA the property sold,
pursuant to a lease agreement dated December 16, 2009. The lease agreement provides for a 20-year
term with an automatic 10-year renewal.
The $4,500,000 in cash proceeds was used to pay off short-term debt associated with the
property sold in the amount of $3,700,942, plus related interest. SPMC received net proceeds of
$732,221 after retirement of the debt and other associated closing costs. Restricted cash on
deposit with the debt holder and pledged as a security on the debt in the amount of $1,524,091
was released and returned to us.
More detailed information regarding this transaction may be found in our Current Report on
Form 8-K, which was filed with the SEC on January 20, 2010.
On June 14, 2010, Sean Kirrane was hired as our Vice President of Finance and Controller.
Mr. Kirrane has over 10 years experience in senior finance and accounting roles for large
publicly traded companies. On August 23, 2010, Mr. Kirrane was appointed to serve as the
Companys Principal Accounting Officer following Mr. Parkersons departure.
On August 23, 2010 Donald C. Parkerson resigned his position as Chief Financial Officer,
effective this same date. Mr Parkersons employment with the Company was governed by an
Executive Services Agreement, dated June 27, 2008, by and between the Company and Tatum LLC. Mr.
Parkerson had no disagreements with us on any matter related to our operations, policies or
practices.
Strategy
Our initial strategy was to identify and invest in platform companies in the business
services and healthcare industries that provided essential core offerings, which could be
expanded over time. As we focused our efforts in the healthcare industry, two particular
segments, ambulatory surgical centers and rural hospitals, stood out in terms of potentially
favorable economics, positive regulatory trends, inherent cost advantages, improving demographics
and, for non-urban healthcare opportunities, a large, under-served market. We determined that the
top-down trends and attractive cash flows of ambulatory surgical centers made this an area of
particular interest. Less well-known, however, is the non-urban sector, which has suffered from a
long-term lack of access to capital despite providing care to more than 50 million people in the
United States. We determined that focusing on rural healthcare could represent a significant
long-term opportunity for us.
On October 29, 2007, we acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding membership units of RHA.
Based in Oklahoma City, RHA owns and operates three critical access hospitals, one medical clinic
and an ancillary support services unit, all focused on the delivery of healthcare services to
rural communities in Oklahoma. Together, the acquisition of RHA and the subsequent acquisition of
SPMC by RHA are referred to herein collectively as the
RHA Acquisition
, and the three
RHA hospitals, the medical clinic, ancillary support services units and SPMC are referred to
herein collectively as the
RHA Healthcare Operations
. On May 1, 2008, RHA purchased
100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of SPMC. Beginning November 18, 2008, RHA
began operating under the trade name Southern Plains Medical Group. On December 11, 2008,
through one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, we acquired the remaining 49% of the issued and
outstanding membership units of RHA, making RHA an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary.
5
Our portfolio was expected to consist of (i) majority interests in healthcare platforms or
facilities, such as RHA, the San Diego ambulatory surgical center and SPMC and (ii) equity
positions in a diversified portfolio of minority interests in ambulatory surgical centers with a
history of positive cash flows. In addition, we expect to selectively invest in business
solutions providing financial and processing services to healthcare providers and physicians and
in support of new treatment solutions.
In line with our strategy, we re-branded our activities. The operations in non-urban markets
previously known as RHA were re-branded Southern Plains Medical Group to leverage the old and
well-established recognition that SPMC has in the regional markets. In addition, effective
September 29, 2009, we changed our name to First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. to reflect our
focus on the healthcare industry.
In response to local market economic conditions including the expected impact of changes in
healthcare law, during the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2010 we have shifted our strategy and embarked upon initiatives to reorganize our
operations. Our strategy has transitioned away from majority ownership in healthcare delivery
companies to a focus on healthcare management services and the financing of equipment and real
estate used by healthcare entities. We will maintain or acquire minority ownership in selected
healthcare delivery companies that complement our management services and financing activities.
We will also invest in, acquire or partner with other companies that provide similar services in
our markets.
In pursuit of this reorganization, we are divesting underperforming facilities and reducing
or outsourcing administrative functions to better align cost structures and business volume.
FUNDING
We have sustained operating losses and negative operating cash flow since our inception and
had an accumulated deficit of approximately $95.5 million as of September 30, 2010, which has
been funded primarily through the issuance of preferred stock and common stock, the issuance of
promissory notes and cash generated from operations.
Our recurring losses from operations and anticipated future losses raises substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan of operations, even if successful, may
not result in cash flow sufficient to finance our business. Realization of our assets is
dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon meeting financing
requirements and the success of future operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving profitability and cash
flow and securing additional financing. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to
raise additional funds and that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity to
continue as a going concern, there can be no assurances to that effect. Our financial statements
do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
As of September 30, 2010 we had current liabilities of $10.3 million and current assets of
$6.5 million.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We formerly operated under the trademarks Tri-Isthmus Group and TIGroup. In line with our
strategy, we re-branded our activities. The operations in non-urban markets currently known as
RHA were re-branded Southern Plains Medical Group to leverage the old and well-established
recognition that SPMC has in the regional markets in which we operate. In addition, effective
September 29, 2009, we changed our name to First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. to reflect our
focus on the healthcare industry.
We do not currently have any patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, royalty
agreements or labor contracts, other than those that are incidental and customary to our
business, such as licenses to use software applications.
EMPLOYEES
We have four employees at the parent company level as of January 31, 2011, including David
Hirschhorn, our chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Sean Kirrane, our Vice President of Finance
and Controller, a director of corporate development and an administrative secretary. We consider
our relations with employees to be good. None of our employees are represented by a labor union
or work under any collective bargaining agreement.
As of January 31, 2011, RHA and Del Mar employed 160 and 26 personnel, respectively. The RHA
employee count excludes those employed by RHA Tishomingo, LLC and The Chandler Clinic, LLC, both
wholly-owned subsidiaries of RHA. As of January 6, 2011, we have divested the operations of RHA
Tishomingo, LLC and The Chandler Clinic, LLC. See Item 8, Footnote No. 17, Subsequent Events,
for further discussion of the sale of these operations. We consider relations with employees at
each of RHA and Del Mar to be good. None of these employees are represented by a labor union or
work under any collective bargaining agreement.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
The United States healthcare industry is subject to extensive regulation by a number of
governmental entities at the federal, state and local level. Government regulation affects our
business activities by controlling our growth, requiring licensure and certification for our
facilities, regulating the use of our properties and controlling reimbursement to us for the
services we provide.
State Licensing and CONs
State licensing of ambulatory surgical centers, rural hospitals and surgical hospitals is
generally a prerequisite to the operation of each center and to participation in federally-funded
programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid. Once a facility becomes licensed and operational, it
must continue to comply with federal, state and local licensing and certification requirements,
as well as local building and safety codes. In addition, every state imposes licensing
requirements on individual physicians and facilities, as well as services operated and owned by
physicians. Physician practices are also subject to federal, state and local laws dealing with
issues such as occupational safety, employment, medical leave, insurance regulations, civil
rights and discrimination and medical waste and other environmental issues.
Certificate of Need (
CON
) statutes and regulations control the development of
ambulatory surgical centers in certain states. CON statutes and regulations generally provide
that, prior to the expansion of existing centers, the construction of new centers, the
acquisition of major items of equipment or the introduction of certain new services, approval
must be obtained from the designated state health planning agency. In giving approval, a
designated state health planning agency must determine that a need exists for expanded or
additional facilities or services. We do not operate in any CON states currently, but we may do
so in the future.
Corporate Practice of Medicine
The laws of certain states in which we operate or may operate in the future do not permit
business corporations to practice medicine, exercise control over physicians who practice
medicine or engage in various business practices, such as fee-splitting with physicians. The
interpretation and enforcement of these laws vary significantly from state to state. We are not
required to obtain a license to practice medicine in any jurisdiction in which we currently own
and operate ambulatory surgical centers, rural hospitals or surgical hospitals because these
entities are not engaged in the practice of medicine as defined by state laws. The physicians who
perform procedures at the ambulatory surgical centers, rural hospitals and surgical hospitals are
individually licensed to practice medicine. In some instances, the physicians and physician group
practices are not affiliated with us other than through the physicians ownership in the limited
partnerships and limited liability companies that own the surgery centers and through the service
agreements we have with some physicians. The laws in most states regarding the corporate practice
of medicine have been subjected to limited judicial and regulatory interpretation. We cannot
provide assurances that our activities, if challenged, will be found to be in compliance with
these laws.
Certification
We depend on third-party programs, including governmental and private health insurance
programs, to reimburse us for services rendered to patients in our facilities. In order to
receive Medicare reimbursement, each facility must meet the applicable conditions of
participation set forth by the United States Department of Health and Human Services, or DHS,
relating to the type of facility, the services it provides, its equipment, personnel and standard
of medical care, as well as compliance with state and local laws and regulations, all of which
are subject to change from time to time. Ambulatory surgical centers and hospitals undergo
periodic on-site Medicare certification surveys. Each of our existing facilities is certified as
a Medicare provider. Although we intend for our facilities to participate in Medicare and other
government reimbursement programs, there can be no assurance that these centers will continue to
qualify for participation.
Medicare-Medicaid Fraud and Abuse Provisions
Section 1128B(b) of the Social Security Act (the
Federal Anti-Kickback Statute
)
prohibits the knowing or willful offering, payment, solicitation or receipt or remuneration,
directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind, for: (1) the referral of
patients or arranging for the referral of patients to receive services for which payment may be
made in whole or in part under a federal or state healthcare program; or (2) the purchase, lease,
order or arranging for the purchase, lease or order of any good, facility, service or item for
which payment may be made under a federal or state healthcare program. The Federal Anti-Kickback
Statute is very broad in scope and many of its provisions have not been uniformly or definitively
interpreted by case law or regulations. Violations may result in criminal penalties or fines of
up to $25,000, imprisonment for up to five years, or both. Violations of the Federal
Anti-Kickback Statute may also result in substantial civil penalties, including penalties of up
to $50,000 for each violation, plus three times the amount claimed and exclusion from
participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Exclusion from these programs would result
in significant reductions in revenue and would have a material adverse effect on our business.
7
As authorized by Congress, the Office of the Inspector General (
OIG
) promulgated
safe harbor regulations that outline categories of activities protected from prosecution under
the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute. These safe harbors cover, among other
things, investment interests, personal services and management contracts and employment
arrangements. Although conduct or business arrangements that do not fall within a safe harbor are
not unlawful
per se
, noncompliant conduct or business arrangements risk increased scrutiny by
governmental enforcement authorities.
In addition to the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996, or
HIPAA,
provides for criminal penalties for healthcare
fraud offenses that apply to all health benefit programs, including the payment of inducements to
Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries in order to influence those beneficiaries to order or receive
services from a particular provider or practitioner. Federal enforcement officials have numerous
enforcement mechanisms to combat fraud and abuse, including the Medicare Integrity Program and an
incentive program under which individuals can receive up to $1,000 for providing information on
Medicare fraud and abuse that leads to the recovery of at least $100 of Medicare funds. In
addition, federal enforcement officials have the ability to exclude from Medicare and Medicaid
any investors, officers and managing employees associated with business entities that have
committed healthcare fraud.
Evolving interpretations of current, or the adoption of new, federal or state laws or
regulations could affect many of our arrangements. Law enforcement authorities, including the
OIG, the courts and Congress, are increasing their scrutiny of arrangements between healthcare
providers and potential referral sources to ensure that the arrangements are not designed as a
mechanism to exchange remuneration for patient care referrals and opportunities. Investigators
also have demonstrated a willingness to look behind the formalities of a business transaction to
determine the underlying purposes of payments between healthcare providers and potential referral
sources.
Prohibition on Physician Ownership of Healthcare Facilities and Certain Self-Referrals
Section 1877(a) of the Social Security Act sets forth the federal physician self-referral
law, commonly referred to as the Stark Law, which prohibits a physician from making a referral
for a designated health service to an entity if the physician or a member of the physicians
immediate family has a financial relationship with the entity, subject to certain exceptions.
Sanctions for violating the Stark Law include civil money penalties of up to $15,000 per
prohibited service provided and exclusion from the federal healthcare programs. The Stark Law
applies to referrals involving the following services under the definition of designated health
services: clinical laboratory services; physical therapy services; occupational therapy
services; radiology and imaging services; radiation therapy services and supplies; durable
medical equipment and supplies; parenteral and enteral nutrients, equipment and supplies;
prosthetics, orthotics and prosthetic devices and supplies; home health services; outpatient
prescription drugs and inpatient and outpatient hospital services.
The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (
CMS
) issued two phases of final
regulations implementing the Stark Law, which became effective on January 4, 2002 and July 26,
2004, respectively. Most recently, on September 5, 2007, CMS issued the third phase of final
regulations which became effective on December 4, 2007. While these regulations help clarify the
requirements of the exceptions to the Stark Law, it is unclear how the government will interpret
the exceptions for enforcement purposes.
Nevertheless, under these regulations, services that would otherwise constitute a designated
health service, but that are paid by Medicare as a part of the surgery center payment rate, are
not a designated health service for purposes of the Stark Law. In addition, the Stark Law
contains an exception covering implants, prosthetics, implanted prosthetic devices and implanted
durable medical equipment provided in a surgery center setting under certain circumstances.
Therefore, we believe the Stark Law does not prohibit physician ownership or investment interests
in our surgery centers to which they refer patients.
With regard to the rural hospitals and the surgical hospitals, the Stark Law regulations
include exceptions for investments in rural providers and hospital ownership. We believe the
investment structure of each of our rural hospitals and surgical hospitals complies with either
the rural provider or hospital ownership exception.
The rural provider exception under the Stark Law reads as follows:
The following ownership or investment interests in the following entities do not constitute
a financial relationship: (1) A rural provider, in the case of DHS furnished in a rural area by
the provider. A rural provider is an entity that furnishes substantially all (not less than 75
percent) of the DHS that it furnishes to residents of a rural area and, for the 18-month period
beginning on December 8, 2003 (or such other period as Congress may specify), is not a specialty
hospital. A rural area for purposes of this paragraph (c)(1) is an area that is not an urban area
as defined in Sec. 412.62(f)(1)(ii) of this chapter.
The hospital ownership exception under the Stark Law reads as follows:
The following ownership or investment interests in the following entities do not constitute
a financial relationship: A hospital that is located outside of Puerto Rico, in the case of DHS
furnished by such a hospital, if:
(i) the referring physician is authorized to perform services at the hospital;
8
(ii) effective for the 18-month period beginning on December 8, 2003 (or such other period
as Congress may specify), the hospital is not a specialty hospital; and
(iii) the ownership or investment interest is in the entire hospital and not merely in a
distinct part or department of the hospital.
In 2003, Congress passed legislation modifying the hospital ownership exception to the Stark
Law by creating an 18-month moratorium on allowing physician ownership of new specialty
hospitals. While the moratorium technically expired in 2005, the DHS suspended the processing of
new provider enrollment applications for specialty hospitals, effectively extending the
moratorium. On August 28, 2006, CMS issued its final report to Congress (the
Final
Report
) addressing the specialty hospital moratorium as required by the Deficit Reduction
Act of 2005. In the Final Report, CMS declined to extend the suspension of processing new
provider enrollment applications for specialty hospitals. CMS also declined to recommend an
amendment to the whole hospital exception to exclude physician investments in specialty
hospitals. Nevertheless, future regulatory changes may prohibit physicians from investing in
specialty hospitals. The Stark Law defines a specialty hospital as a hospital that primarily or
exclusively treats cardiac, orthopedic or surgical conditions or any other specialized category
of patients or cases designated by regulation. According to this definition, we believe that none
of our facilities is a specialty hospital, and therefore, the moratorium does not apply to our
facilities. There can be no assurance, however, that the federal government will not amend the
definition of specialty hospital to include the any of our facilities.
Furthermore, on July 12, 2007, CMS published proposed updates to the Medicare Physician Fee
Schedule for 2008, which included a number of significant proposed revisions to the Stark Law.
While none of the proposed revisions are directly relevant for purposes of this disclosure,
investors should be aware that CMS may propose changes to the Stark Law in the future that may
significantly impact our investment structures and our relationships with referring physicians.
We also have various compensation arrangements, including personal service arrangements and
management arrangements with physicians that we have structured to comply with applicable Stark
Law exceptions.
The Federal False Claims Act and Similar Federal and State Laws
The False Claims Act (the
FCA
) prohibits any person from knowingly presenting or
causing to be presented a false or fraudulent claim, record or statement to obtain payment from
the government or decrease any payments owed to the government. Governmental enforcement agencies
or courts may impose fines up to three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus
mandatory civil penalties of between $5,500 and $11,000 for each separate false claim.
Criminal false claims provisions apply to (1) false claims or statements made knowingly or
willfully to obtain benefits under Medicare or Medicaid or feign compliance with certification
requirements, or (2) failure to refund, knowingly and with fraudulent intent, Medicare and
Medicaid funds not properly paid. Governmental enforcement agencies or courts may impose up to
five years in prison, $25,000 in fines for each offense, or both.
FCA claims may be brought by governmental enforcement authorities or by individuals on the
governments behalf under the FCAs
qui tam
, or whistleblower, provisions. Whistleblower
provisions allow private individuals to bring actions on behalf of the government alleging that
the defendant defrauded the federal government. Additionally, HIPAA established (1) civil
liability for up-coding and billing medically unnecessary items and services, and (2) federal
criminal sanctions for healthcare fraud against a private, nongovernmental healthcare benefit
program. Although we have implemented policies and procedures to avoid violations of these laws,
there can be no assurance that the conduct will not be reviewed and challenged by whistleblowers
or governmental enforcement authorities. Any adverse determination could subject us to criminal
and civil liability.
A number of states have adopted their own false claims provisions as well as their own
qui
tam
provisions whereby a private party may file a civil lawsuit in state court. We are currently
not aware of any actions against us under any such state laws.
Healthcare Industry Investigations
Both federal and state government agencies have heightened and coordinated civil and
criminal enforcement efforts as part of numerous ongoing investigations of healthcare companies,
as well as their executives and managers. These investigations relate to a wide variety of
topics, including referral and billing practices.
From time to time, the OIG and the United States Department of Justice (the
DOJ
)
have established national enforcement initiatives that focus on specific billing practices or
other suspected areas of abuse. Some of our activities could become the subject of governmental
investigations or inquiries. For example, we have significant Medicare billings and we have joint
venture arrangements involving physician investors. In addition, our executives and managers,
many of whom have worked at other healthcare companies that are or may become the subject of
federal and state investigations and private litigation could be included in governmental
investigations or named as defendants in private litigation. We are not aware of any governmental
investigations involving any of our facilities, our executives or our managers. A future adverse
investigation of us, our executives or our
managers could result in significant expense to us, as well as adverse publicity.
9
Privacy Requirements and Administrative Simplification
Federal and state governmental enforcement authorities extensively regulate the
confidentiality of patient health information. HIPAA privacy regulations regulate the use and
disclosure of patient health information, whether communicated electronically, on paper or
orally. The regulations also provide patients with significant rights related to understanding
and controlling how their health information is used or disclosed. HIPAA security regulations
require healthcare providers to implement administrative, physical and technical safeguards to
protect the security of patient health information that is maintained or transmitted
electronically. Further, as required by HIPAA, DHS has adopted regulations establishing
electronic data transmission standards that all healthcare providers must use when submitting or
receiving certain healthcare transactions electronically.
The penalty for failure to comply with HIPAA privacy and security standards is a fine of up
to $100 for each violation, with a maximum penalty of $25,000 imposed for all violations of an
identical requirement during a calendar year. Additionally, any person or entity who violates
HIPAA privacy or security regulations may be fined up to $250,000, imprisoned for not more than
10 years or both. We believe we comply in all material respects with all applicable federal and
state laws, rules and regulations governing the privacy and security of patient health
information. Because of the complexity of these regulations, however, there can be no assurance
that our privacy and security practices will not be reviewed and found not to be in compliance
with these standards. An adverse determination by governmental enforcement authorities could
materially and adversely affect our business.
In addition, our facilities will continue to remain subject to any state laws that are more
restrictive than the HIPAA privacy and security regulations. These statutes vary by state and
could impose additional penalties.
Environmental Regulation
Our operations generate medical waste that must be disposed of in compliance with federal,
state and local environmental laws, rules and regulations. Our operations are also subject to
compliance with various other environmental laws, rules and regulations. Such compliance costs
are not significant, and we do not anticipate that they will be significant in the future.
Medicare and Medicaid Regulatory and Audit Impacts
Medicare and state Medicaid programs are subject to regulatory changes, administrative
rulings, interpretations and determinations, post-payment audits, requirements for utilization
review and new governmental funding restrictions, all of which could materially increase or
decrease program payments, impact cost of providing services and affect the timing of payments to
our hospitals. The final determination of amounts received under the Medicare and Medicaid
programs often takes many years because of audits by the programs representatives, providers
rights of appeal and the application of numerous technical reimbursement provisions. Until final
adjustments are made, certain issues remain unresolved and established allowances may be higher
or lower than what is ultimately required.
The Medicare program utilizes a system of contracted carriers and fiscal intermediaries
across the country to process claims and conduct post-payment audits. Per the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the
2003 Act
), CMS is
reforming the carrier and fiscal intermediary functions. As part of such reform, CMS is
competitively bidding the carrier and fiscal intermediary functions to Medicare Administrative
Contractors. These changes could affect claims processing, auditing and cash flow to Medicare
providers.
COMPETITORS
In our current markets, we compete with other healthcare providers, including major acute
care, surgical, specialty and rural hospitals and other surgery centers. We compete with other
providers for patients, physicians and for contracts with insurers or managed care payors. There
are several publicly-held companies, or divisions of large publicly-held companies, that acquire
and develop freestanding multi-specialty surgery centers. Some of these competitors have greater
resources than we do. The principal competitive factors that affect our ability and the ability
of our competitors to acquire surgery centers and private surgical, rural and specialty hospitals
are price, experience, reputation and access to capital. The principal competitive factors that
affect our surgery centers are location and the quality of medical care provided by our
physician-partners and other physicians who use our facilities.
10
ANY INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER
THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT.
Risks Related to Our Business
We have a need for ongoing financing.
We will need additional capital to continue to maintain and expand our operations and will
endeavor to raise funds through the sale of equity shares and other types of securities and
revenues from operations. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues from
operations or obtain sufficient capital on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to obtain such
capital or generate such operating revenues would have an adverse impact on our financial
position and results of operations and ability to continue as a going concern. Our operating
capital and capital expenditure requirements during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011 and
thereafter will vary based on a number of factors, including the level of sales and marketing
activities for our services and products.
Our recurring losses from operations and anticipated future losses raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan of operations, even if successful, may
not result in cash flow sufficient to finance our business. Realization of our assets is
dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon meeting financing
requirements and the success of future operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving profitability and cash
flow and securing additional financing. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to
raise additional funds and that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity to
continue as a going concern, there can be no assurances to that effect.
There can be no assurance that additional private or public financings, including debt or
equity financing, will be available as needed, or, if available, on terms favorable to us. Any
additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and such additional equity securities
may have rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our existing Common Stock.
Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve
restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility. Our failure to
successfully obtain additional future funding may jeopardize our ability to continue our business
and operations. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, existing stockholders
may experience a dilution in their ownership. In addition, as a condition to giving additional
funds to us, future investors may demand, and may be granted, rights superior to those of
existing stockholders.
We are subject to uncertainties regarding healthcare reform.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the PPACA), passed by Congress and signed
into law in March 2010, has created uncertainty related to our ability to grow and pursue
profitable healthcare services. The PPACA has provisions with phased implementation starting in
2010 and continuing through 2014. Among the PPACA provisions are price controls and incentives
placed on doctors and hospitals, insurance market reforms to increase the availability of health
insurance, requirements that all individuals obtain health insurance coverage or pay a tax and
the creation of government health insurance exchanges for small businesses and individuals Since
Congressional approval of the PPACA, several states have passed legislation challenging the
constitutionality of the legislation. We cannot predict which healthcare reforms will be adopted
and, if adopted how such reforms could harm our business. It is possible that these reforms may
be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our business practices. If so,
in addition to the possibility of fines, this could result in an order requiring that we change
our business practices, which could have an adverse effect on our business. Complying with these
various reforms could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business
practices in a manner adverse to our business.
The recent disruption in the overall economy and the financial markets may adversely impact our
business.
Many industries, including businesses providing healthcare solutions outside of traditional
hospital settings, have been affected by current economic factors, including the deterioration of
national, regional and local economic conditions, declines in employment levels and shifts in
consumer spending patterns. The recent disruptions in the overall economy and volatility in the
financial markets have reduced, and may continue to reduce, consumer confidence in the economy,
negatively affecting consumer spending, which could be harmful to our financial position.
Disruptions in the overall economy may also lead to a lower collection rate on billings as
consumers or businesses are unable to pay their bills in a timely fashion. Decreased cash flow
generated from our businesses may adversely affect our financial position and our ability to fund
our operations. In addition, macroeconomic disruptions, as well as the restructuring of various
commercial and investment banking organizations, could adversely affect our ability to access the
credit markets. The disruption in the credit markets may also adversely affect the availability
of financing for our acquisition of interests in ambulatory surgical centers, rural hospitals,
surgical hospitals and other healthcare delivery platforms. There can be no assurance that
government responses to the disruptions in the financial markets will restore consumer
confidence, stabilize the markets or increase liquidity and the availability of credit.
11
We are dependent for our success on a few key executive officers. Were we to lose one or more of
these key executive officers, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the
pursuit of a replacement, which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our
business plan and the diversion of working capital.
Our success depends to a critical extent on the continued efforts and services of our Chief
Executive Officer, David Hirschhorn and our Vice President of Finance and Controller, Sean
Kirrane. Were we to lose one or more of these key executive officers, we would
be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement or replacements,
which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion
of limited working capital. We can give you no assurance that we can find satisfactory
replacements for these key executive officers at all, or on terms that are not unduly expensive
or burdensome to us. Although Mr. Hirschhorn has signed an employment agreement with us, his
agreement does not preclude him from leaving us, nor can we assure you that the noncompetition
provisions contained in his employment agreement would be enforceable in any such event.
Our ability to retain or attract employees that provide healthcare services may be adversely
impacted by recent changes in employee benefit programs.
Our success depends to a critical extent on the healthcare services provided by our current
and future employees. The recent removal of certain employee benefit programs in response to
escalating health care costs may result in the loss of current employees and the inability to
recruit future employees. In this event, we would be forced to expend significant time and money
in the pursuit of satisfactory replacements. We can give you no assurance that we can find
satisfactory replacements for these employees, or on terms that are not unduly expensive or
burdensome to us.
If we are unable to acquire and develop additional healthcare facilities on favorable terms, we
may be unable to execute our acquisition and development strategy, which could limit our future
growth.
Part of our strategy to increase our revenues and earnings is through the continuing
acquisition of interests in hospitals, physician practices, ambulatory surgical centers, surgical
hospitals and other healthcare delivery platforms operating in partnership with physicians. Our
efforts to execute our acquisition and development strategy may be affected by our ability to
identify suitable candidates and negotiate and close acquisition and development transactions. We
are currently evaluating potential acquisitions and development projects and expect to continue
to evaluate acquisitions and development projects in the foreseeable future. The businesses we
acquire may experience losses in their early months of operation, or may never become profitable.
We may not be successful in acquiring additional companies or achieving satisfactory operating
results at acquired or newly developed facilities. Further, the companies or assets we acquire in
the future may not ultimately produce returns that justify our related investment. If we are
unable to execute our acquisition and development strategy, our ability to increase revenues and
earnings through future growth would be impaired.
We have incurred significant losses and may incur losses in the future.
We have sustained operating losses since inception and had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $95.7 million as of September 30, 2010. This deficit has been funded primarily
through sales of equity, the issuance of promissory notes and cash generated from operations. Our
management intends to continue in the pursuit of a growth strategy defined by acquisitions. We
anticipate that our operating expenses will increase in the foreseeable future as we increase our
acquisition activities, and continue to develop our technology, products and services. We will
need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, and we cannot assure you that we
will ever realize revenues at such levels. If we do achieve profitability in any period, we may
not be able to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
If we incur material liabilities as a result of acquiring companies, hospitals or ambulatory
surgical centers, our operating results could be adversely affected.
Although we conduct extensive due diligence prior to the acquisition of companies,
hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, physician practices and other healthcare businesses, and
seek indemnification from prospective sellers covering unknown or contingent liabilities, we may
acquire companies that have material liabilities for failure to comply with healthcare laws and
regulations or other past activities. Although we maintain professional and general liability
insurance, we do not currently maintain insurance specifically covering any unknown or contingent
liabilities that may have occurred prior to any acquisition. If we incur these liabilities and
are not adequately indemnified or insured for them, our operating results and financial condition
could be adversely affected.
If we are unable to manage growth, we may be unable to achieve our growth strategy.
We expect to continue to expand our operations in the future. To accommodate our past and
anticipated future growth, and to compete effectively, we will need to continue to implement and
improve our management, operational and financial information systems and to expand, train,
manage and motivate our workforce. Our personnel, systems, procedures or controls may not be
adequate to support our operations in the future. Further, focusing our financial resources and
management attention on the expansion of our operations may negatively impact our financial
results. Any failure to implement and improve our management, operational and financial
information systems, or to expand, train, manage or motivate our workforce, could reduce or
prevent our growth.
12
If we rely on third parties to provide services that are critical to our operations, we may have
reduced financial and operational control which may result in a material impact on our ability to
operate.
In the future, we expect to utilize third parties to provide outsourced business functions.
The reduced financial and operational control over third parties poses an additional risk over
having direct control over these functions.
If we are unable to grow revenues at our existing facilities, our operating margins and
profitability could be adversely affected.
Our growth strategy includes increasing our revenues and earnings by increasing the number
of procedures performed at our facilities. Because we expect the amount of the payments we
receive from third-party payors to remain fairly consistent, our operating margins will be
adversely affected if we do not increase the revenues and procedure volume of our facilities to
offset increases in our operating costs. We seek to increase procedure volume and revenues at our
surgical facilities by increasing the number of physicians performing procedures at our centers,
obtaining new or more favorable managed care contracts, improving patient flow at our centers,
promoting screening programs, increasing patient and physician awareness of our facilities and
achieving operating efficiencies. We can give you no assurances that we will be successful at
increasing or maintaining revenues and operating margins at our facilities.
Appropriate acquisitions or investment opportunities may not be available.
As noted above, we may use a portion of our cash resources to pursue acquisition
opportunities. If we decide to seek such opportunities, our future results will be dependent on
our ability to identify, attract and complete desirable acquisition opportunities, which may take
considerable time. In addition, our cash position, $1.7 million at September 30, 2010, may limit
the scale and therefore the number of opportunities available. Our future results will be
dependent on the performance of the acquired businesses, if any. We may not be successful in
identifying, attracting or acquiring desirable acquisition candidates, or in realizing profits
from any acquisitions.
With the completion of the acquisition of the San Diego ambulatory surgical centers, our
strategy evolved during the Fiscal Year Ended January 31, 2007 from a focus on investment in
platform strategies in the business services and healthcare industries to a concentration on
healthcare and ancillary services, targeting companies valued at $3 million to $50 million. In
particular, we are actively seeking to build our portfolio of interests in healthcare services
operations, including ambulatory surgical centers, rural hospitals, surgical hospitals and other
healthcare delivery platforms operating in partnership with physicians. Our strategy is
predicated on managements belief that the provision of flexible financial solutions to
ambulatory surgical centers, specialty hospitals and other healthcare platforms aligns our
interests with those of physician-partners, providing the basis for interdependent relationships
that should establish sound operating partnerships and deliver solid risk adjusted returns. Our
portfolio is expected to consist of (i) majority interests in healthcare platforms or facilities,
such as RHA and the San Diego ambulatory surgical center and (ii) equity positions in a
diversified portfolio of minority interests in ambulatory surgical centers with a history of
positive cash flows. In addition, we will selectively invest in business solutions providing
financial and processing services to healthcare providers and physicians and in support of new
treatment solutions.
We will have sole and absolute discretion in identifying and selecting acquisition and
investment opportunities and in structuring, negotiating and undertaking transactions with our
target companies. We may acquire, invest or be sold (in whole or in part) at any time, as our
Board of Directors and management determine is appropriate. Our stockholders generally will not
be able to evaluate the merits of the acquisition, investment or sale (partial or otherwise)
before we take any of these actions. In addition, in making decisions to complete acquisitions,
investments or a sale, we will rely, in part, on financial projections developed by our
management and financial advisors and the management of potential target companies. These
projections will be based on assumptions and subjective judgments. The actual results of these
transactions may differ significantly from these projections.
A significant portion of our revenues are produced by a small number of our facilities, which are
concentrated in Oklahoma and California.
A significant portion of our revenues are produced by a small number of our facilities based
in Oklahoma and California. Our future patient volumes, net revenues and profitability in this
market could be unfavorably impacted as a result of increased competitor capacity and expansion
of services. A continuation of increased provider competition in this market, as well as
potential future capacity added by us and others, could result in additional erosion of the
patient volumes, net revenues and financial operating results of our facilities in this market.
The significant portion of our revenues derived from these facilities makes us particularly
sensitive to regulatory, economic, environmental and competition changes in Oklahoma and
California. Any material change in the current payment programs or regulatory, economic,
environmental or competitive conditions in these states could have a disproportionate effect on
our overall business results.
We depend on our relationships with the physicians who use our facilities. Our ability to provide
medical services at our facilities would be impaired and our revenues reduced if we were unable
to maintain these relationships.
Our business depends upon the efforts and success of the physicians who provide medical and
surgical services at our
facilities and the strength of our relationships with these physicians. Our revenues would
be reduced if we lost our relationship with one or more key physicians or group of physicians or
if such physicians or groups reduce their use of our facilities. In addition, any failure of
these physicians to maintain the quality of medical care provided or to otherwise adhere to
professional guidelines at our surgical facilities, or any damage to the reputation of a key
physician or group of physicians could damage our reputation, subject us to liability and
significantly reduce our revenues.
13
Continued growth in the number of uninsured and underinsured patients or further deterioration in
the collectability of the accounts of such patients could harm our results of operations.
The principal collection risks for our accounts receivable relate to uninsured patient
accounts and patient accounts for which the primary insurance carrier has paid the amounts
required by the applicable agreement but patient responsibility amounts (e.g., deductibles,
co-payments and other amounts not covered by insurance) remain outstanding. If we continue to
experience significant increases in uninsured and underinsured patients and/or uncollectible
accounts receivable, our results of operations could be harmed.
We may incur liabilities not covered by our insurance or which exceed our insurance limits.
In the ordinary course of business, our subsidiary hospitals are subject to medical
malpractice lawsuits, product liability lawsuits and other legal actions. Some of these actions
may involve large claims, as well as significant defense costs. We self-insure a substantial
portion of our liability risks for property and other typical insurance coverage with commercial
carriers, subject to self-insurance retention levels. We believe that, based on our past
experience and actuarial estimates, our insurance coverage and our self-insurance reserves are
sufficient to cover claims arising from the operations of our subsidiary hospitals. However, if
payments for claims and related expenses exceed our estimates or if payments are required to be
made by us that are not covered by insurance, our business could be harmed and our results of
operations could be adversely impacted. We believe that our insurance is adequate in amount and
coverage. However, in the future, insurance may not be available at reasonable prices or we may
have to increase our levels of self-insurance.
Because we have facilities in Oklahoma and California, we may incur liabilities or have
operational difficulties as a result of damage from tornados, mudslides, earthquakes and
wildfires, as well as damage from other natural disasters.
We own and operate hospitals in Oklahoma. Oklahoma has one of the highest rates of tornado
activity in the United States. Potential tornado damage and disruption to our hospitals, as well
as employees homes, local businesses, local infrastructure (such as roads and bridges leading to
our hospitals) and physicians offices could be extensive. If we experience damage as a result of
tornados or other natural disasters in the vicinity of any of our Oklahoma facilities, the
results of operations could be harmed due to financial losses to repair or rebuild our facilities
or disruption to our customers or employees that could negatively impact our operations.
We also own and operate facilities in California. Mudslides, earthquakes, wildfires and
other natural disasters occur frequently in California. Potential damage and disruption in our
facilities, local businesses, local infrastructure (such as roads and bridges leading to our
hospitals) or employees homes located in California as a result of mudslides, earthquakes,
wildfires or other natural disasters could be substantial. If we experience mudslides,
earthquakes, wildfires or other natural disasters in the vicinity of any of our California
facilities, our reputation and results of operations could be harmed due to financial losses to
repair or rebuild our facilities or disruption to our customers or employees that could hurt our
ability to effectively provide our services.
Risks Related to Our Industry/General Market Conditions
Current and future disruptions in the banking industries may limit our access to our funds or
cause us to lose funds, which could negatively impact our business.
We are affected by certain economic factors that are beyond our control, including changes
in the overall banking environment. Due to the current economic climate, some banks may fail. The
rate of bank failures has increased significantly in recent periods. A large percentage of our
cash is held in banks, not all of our cash is insured by the FDIC against an event of bank
failure and it would be impractically burdensome to rearrange our banking relationships to ensure
a 100% insurance coverage rate on our deposits. Should a bank at which we have a deposit fail, we
could lose all funds that are not insured or face significant delays in recovering funds if any
recovery of our uninsured amounts is possible at all. The loss of our cash, or the ability to
access our cash, could have a material adverse affect on our business and could possibly cause us
to file for bankruptcy or be forced to dissolve.
We depend on payments from third-party payors, including government healthcare programs. If these
payments are reduced, our revenue will decrease.
We are dependent upon private and governmental third-party sources of payment for the
services provided to patients in our facilities. The amount of payment a facility receives for
its services may be adversely affected by market and cost factors as well as
other factors over which we have no control, including Medicare and Medicaid regulations and
the cost containment and utilization decisions of third-party payors. Fixed fee schedules,
capitation payment arrangements, exclusion from participation in or inability to reach agreement
with managed care programs or other factors affecting payments for healthcare services over which
we have no control could also cause a reduction in our revenues.
14
If federal or state healthcare programs or managed care companies reduce the payments we receive
as reimbursement for services we provide, our net operating revenues may decline.
In recent years, federal and state governments made significant changes in the Medicare and
Medicaid programs, including the 2003 Act. Some of these changes could decrease the amount of
money we receive for our services relating to these programs
.
In recent years, Congress and some
state legislatures have introduced an increasing number of other proposals to make major changes
in the healthcare system including an increased emphasis on the linkage between quality of care
criteria and payment levels such as the submission of patient quality data to the Secretary of
Health and Human Services. Federal funding for existing programs may not be approved in the
future. Future federal and state legislation may further reduce the payments we receive for our
services. In addition, insurance and managed care companies and other third parties from whom we
receive payment for our services increasingly are attempting to control healthcare costs by
requiring that hospitals discount payments for their services in exchange for exclusive or
preferred participation in their benefit plans. We believe that this trend may continue and may
reduce the payments we receive for our services, which will lead to a decrease in our revenues
without a corresponding reduction in our costs.
Providers in the hospital industry have been the subject of federal and state investigations and
we could become subject to such investigations in the future.
For the past several years, significant media and public attention has been focused on the
hospital industry due to ongoing investigations related to referrals, cost reporting and billing
practices, laboratory and home healthcare services and physician ownership of joint ventures
involving hospitals. Both federal and state government agencies have previously announced
heightened and coordinated civil and criminal enforcement efforts. Moreover, the OIG and the DOJ
have, from time to time, established enforcement initiatives that focus on specific areas of
suspected fraud and abuse. Recent initiatives included a focus on hospital billing practices.
In March 2005, CMS implemented a three-year pilot recovery audit contractor program,
commonly known as RAC, covering providers in certain states where we operate hospitals. RAC
auditors are independent contractors hired by CMS. Among other things, the auditors have been
focusing on clinical documentation supporting billings under the Medicare program. If an auditor
concludes that such documentation does not support the providers Medicare billings, CMS will
revise the amount due to the provider, compare such amount to what was previously paid and
withhold the difference from a current remittance. The affected facility can appeal the auditors
decision through an administrative process. At the conclusion of the pilot demonstration program,
a permanent program may be implemented that will include hospital providers throughout the
country.
We closely monitor our billing and other hospital practices to maintain compliance with
prevailing industry interpretations of applicable laws and regulations, and we believe that our
practices are consistent with those in our industry. However, government investigations could be
initiated that are inconsistent with industry practices and prevailing interpretations of
existing laws and regulations. In public statements, government authorities have taken positions
on issues for which little official interpretation had been previously available. Some of those
positions appear to be inconsistent with practices that have been common within our industry and,
in some cases, they have not yet been challenged. Moreover, some government investigations that
were previously conducted under the civil provisions of federal law are now being conducted as
criminal investigations under fraud and abuse laws.
We cannot predict whether we will be the subject of future governmental investigations or
inquiries. Any determination that we have violated applicable laws or regulations or even a
public announcement that we are being investigated for possible violations could harm our
business by the issuance of injunctions requiring that we change our practices, loss of
confidence by customers and damage to our reputation, fines and other losses. Becoming subject to
such investigations could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our
business practices in a manner adverse to our business.
If we fail to comply with other applicable laws and regulations, we could suffer penalties or be
required to make significant changes to our operations.
We are subject to many laws and regulations at the federal, state and local government
levels in the jurisdictions in which we operate. These laws and regulations require that our
healthcare facilities meet various licensing, certification and other requirements, including
those relating to:
|
|
|
physician ownership of our facilities;
|
|
|
|
|
the adequacy of medical care, equipment, personnel, operating policies and procedures;
|
|
|
|
|
building and safety codes;
|
15
|
|
|
licensure, certification and accreditation;
|
|
|
|
|
billing for services;
|
|
|
|
|
maintenance and protection of records; and
|
|
|
|
|
environmental protection.
|
We believe that we are in material compliance with applicable laws and regulations. However,
if we fail or have failed to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we could suffer civil
or criminal penalties, including the loss of our licenses to operate and our ability to
participate in Medicare, Medicaid and other government-sponsored healthcare programs. New
interpretations or enforcement of existing or new laws and regulations could subject our current
practices to allegations of impropriety or illegality, or could require us to make changes in our
facilities, equipment, personnel, services, capital expenditure programs and operating expenses.
Current or future legislative initiatives or government regulation may have a material adverse
effect on our operations or reduce the demand for our services.
In pursuing our growth strategy, we may expand our presence into new geographic markets. In
entering a new geographic market, we will be required to comply with laws and regulations of
jurisdictions that may differ from those applicable to our current operations. If we are unable
to comply with these legal requirements in a cost-effective manner, we may be unable to enter new
geographic markets.
We are subject to anti-kickback and self-referral laws and regulations that provide for
criminal and civil penalties if they are violated.
The healthcare industry is subject to many laws and regulations designed to deter and
prevent practices deemed by the government to be fraudulent or abusive. Unless an exception
applies, Stark Law prohibits physicians from referring Medicare or Medicaid patients to providers
of enumerated designated health services with whom the physician or a member of the physicians
immediate family has an ownership interest or compensation arrangement. Such referrals are deemed
to be self-referrals due to the physicians financial relationship with the entity providing
the designated health services. Moreover, many states have adopted or are considering similar
legislative proposals, some of which extend beyond the scope of the Stark Law to prohibit the
payment or receipt of remuneration for the prohibited referral of patients for designated
healthcare services and physician self-referrals, regardless of the source of the payment for the
patients care.
We review our operations from time to time and believe that we are either exempted from or
in compliance with the Stark Law and similar state statutes. We are currently working to
implement a more systematic review process, which will ensure ongoing compliance. When evaluating
strategic joint ventures or other collaborative relationships with physicians, we consider the
scope and effect of these statutes and seek to structure the arrangements in full compliance with
their provisions. Nevertheless, if it is determined that certain of our practices or operations
violate the Stark Law or similar statutes, we could become subject to civil and criminal
penalties, including exclusion from the Medicare and/or Medicaid programs. The imposition of any
such penalties could harm our business.
We could fail to comply with the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, or
EMTALA, which could subject us to civil monetary penalties or cause us to be excluded from
participation in the Medicare program.
Our hospital facilities are subject to EMTALA, which requires every hospital participating
in the Medicare program to conduct a medical screening examination of each person presented for
treatment at its emergency room. If a patient is suffering from an emergency medical condition,
the hospital must either stabilize that condition or make an appropriate transfer of the patient
to a facility that can handle the condition, regardless of the individuals ability to pay for
care. EMTALA imposes severe penalties if a hospital fails to screen, appropriately stabilize or
transfer a patient, or if a hospital delays service while first inquiring about the patients
ability to pay. Such penalties include, but are not limited to, civil monetary penalties and
exclusion from participation in the Medicare program. In addition to civil monetary penalties, an
aggrieved patient, a patients family or a medical facility that ultimately suffers a financial
loss as a direct result of a transferring hospitals EMTALA violation can commence a civil suit
under EMTALA. Although we believe that our facilities comply with EMTALA, there can be no
assurances that claims will not be brought against us and, if successfully asserted against one
or more of our hospitals, such claims could adversely affect our business and results of
operations.
Our hospitals face competition for medical support staff, including nurses, pharmacists, medical
technicians and other personnel, which may increase our labor costs and adversely affect our
business.
We are highly dependent on our experienced medical support personnel, including nurses,
pharmacists and lab technicians, seasoned local hospital management and other medical personnel.
We compete with other healthcare providers to recruit and ultimately retain these healthcare
professionals. On a national level, a shortage of nurses and other medical support personnel has
become a significant operating issue for a number of healthcare providers. In the future, this
shortage may require us to enhance
wages and benefits to recruit and retain such personnel or require us to hire expensive
temporary and per diem personnel. Additionally, to the extent that a significant portion of our
employee base unionizes, or attempts to unionize, our labor costs could increase. If our wages
and related expenses increase, we may not be able to raise our reimbursement rates
correspondingly. Our failure to recruit and retain qualified hospital management, nurses and
other medical support personnel or modulate our labor costs could adversely affect our results of
operations and harm our business.
16
If we do not continually enhance our hospitals with the most recent technological advances in
diagnostic and surgical equipment, our ability to maintain and expand our markets will be
adversely affected.
There are ongoing technological advances regarding CT scanners, MRI equipment, positron
emission tomography (
PET
) scanners and other similar equipment. In order to
effectively compete, we must continually assess our equipment needs and upgrade when significant
technological advances occur. If our hospitals do not stay abreast of the technological advances
in the healthcare industry, patients may seek treatment from other providers and physicians may
refer their patients to alternate sources.
If we are unable to effectively compete for patients, local residents could use other hospitals.
The hospital industry is highly competitive. In addition to the competition we face for
acquisitions and physicians, we must also compete with other hospitals and healthcare providers
for patients. The competition among hospitals and other healthcare providers for patients has
intensified in recent years. Our hospitals are located in non-urban service areas. However, our
hospitals face competition from hospitals outside of their primary service area, including
hospitals in urban areas that provide more complex services. Patients in our primary service
areas may travel to these other hospitals for a variety of reasons. These reasons include
physician referrals or the need for services we do not offer. Patients who seek services from
these other hospitals may subsequently shift their preferences to those hospitals for the
services we provide.
Some of our hospitals operate in primary service areas where they compete with other
hospitals. Some of these competing hospitals use equipment and services more specialized than
those available at our hospitals. In addition, some competing hospitals are owned by
tax-supported governmental agencies or not-for-profit entities supported by endowments and
charitable contributions. These hospitals can make capital expenditures without paying sales,
property and income taxes. We also face competition from other specialized care providers,
including outpatient surgery, orthopedic, oncology and diagnostic centers.
We expect that these competitive trends will continue. Our inability to compete effectively
with other hospitals and other healthcare providers could cause local residents to use other
hospitals.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
We have broad discretion in using our cash resources and may not use them in a manner that our
stockholders would prefer.
We have broad discretion in how we use our limited cash resources. In general, our
stockholders will not have the opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other
information on which we base our decisions on how to use our cash resources. The choices of our
Board of Directors and management on how to apply the funds could have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition.
We may finance acquisitions by issuing additional capital stock or incurring substantial debt,
both of which could have negative consequences.
As noted, we may use a portion of our resources to pursue acquisition opportunities and the
timing, size and success of our acquisition efforts and any associated capital commitments cannot
be readily predicted. We may raise additional funds to complete such acquisitions. Generally, our
Board of Directors has the power to issue new equity (to the extent of authorized shares) without
stockholder approval. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities,
the percentage ownership of our then-current stockholders would be diluted, our earnings and book
value per share could be diluted and, if such equity securities take the form of preferred stock,
the holders of such preferred stock may have the rights, preferences or privileges senior to
those of holders of Common Stock. If we are able to raise additional funds through the incurrence
of debt, and we do so, we would likely become subject to restrictive financial covenants and
other risks associated with the incurrence of debt.
The market for our Common Stock may be illiquid.
The 90-day average daily trading volume of our registered Common Stock in the
over-the-counter markets derived from historical data reported by finance.google.com as of
January 10, 2011 was approximately 141 shares and we have had some days with no trading. There
can be no assurance that trading volumes will increase to a consistently higher level or that
holders of the shares will be able to sell their shares in a timely manner or at all.
17
Our common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange.
Our Common Stock is currently traded on the Over The Counter Bulletin Board, commonly
referred to as the OTCBB, and we do not currently meet the listing requirements for the NASDAQ
Global Market or any other national securities exchange in the United States. The fact that our
Common Stock is not listed for trading in such markets may have an effect on the perception of us
among potential investors or acquirers and may adversely affect the liquidity of our shares and
therefore can have an effect on our ability to complete such transactions or raise additional
funds.
In the event we are unable to grow through acquiring or merging with other businesses or
unable to obtain additional financing, our Common Stock may no longer meet listing requirements
for the OTCBB and thereby eliminating any public market for our Common Stock.

DIVIDENDS
We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our Common Stock or preferred stock.
Holders of our Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to non-cumulative dividends,
if declared by the Board of Directors, of $0.20 per share annually. Holders of our Series 2-A
Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to non-cumulative dividends, if declared by the Board of
Directors, in an amount equal to 8% of the price originally paid to us for each share of Series
2-A Convertible Preferred Stock. Holders of our Series 5-A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value
$0.01 per share (the
5-A Preferred
) are entitled to non-cumulative dividends, if
declared by the Board of Directors, of $40 per share annually. Holders of our 6-A Preferred are
entitled to non-cumulative dividends, if declared by the Board of Directors and
pari passu
with
5-A Preferred, of $40 per share annually. No dividend may be declared and paid upon shares of our
Common Stock in any fiscal year unless dividends on all such preferred stock have been paid or
declared and set aside for payment to holders of our preferred stock for such fiscal year. We
currently intend to retain all future earnings to finance future growth and therefore do not
anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

In July 2000, our Board of Directors approved a stock option plan (the
2000 Plan
). Our stockholders have not
approved this plan. The 2000 Plan authorizes the grant of incentive stock options and non-statutory stock
options covering an aggregate of 39,750 shares of Common Stock, as adjusted for our November 2002 reverse stock
split (subject to limitations of applicable laws, and adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits,
reverse stock splits and certain other corporate events). The 2000 Plan expires on July 6, 2010, unless it is
terminated earlier or suspended by the Board. The 2000 Plan is not subject to any provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. As of September 30, 2009, options to purchase an aggregate of 27,171
shares of Common Stock are classified as outstanding under the 2000 Plan, with a weighted average exercise price
of $15.25. We do not intend to issue any further options under the 2000 Plan or warrants to purchase stock to
additional individuals or vendors as compensation for services rendered.

In 2001, at our 2001 Annual Meeting, our stockholders
approved two equity compensation plans: (a) our 2001
Stock Options/Stock Issuance Plan (the
2001 Plan
)
and (b) our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (
ESPP
).
The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may
be issued under the 2001 Plan cannot exceed 20% of the
total shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time
the calculation is made (including, on an as-converted
basis, all convertible preferred stock, convertible
debt securities, warrants, options and other
convertible securities that are exercisable), but in no
event will the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
which may be issued under the 2001 Plan as incentive
stock options exceed 20,000,000. The weighted average
exercise price under the 2001 Plan shall be fixed by
the Plan Administrator (as that term is defined in the
2001 Plan) and, in the case of an incentive option,
shall be limited by the following: 1) the exercise
price per share shall not be less than 100% of the fair
market value (as that term is defined in the 2001 Plan)
per share of our Common Stock on the date of option
grant and 2) in the event that the optionee is a 10%
stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall
not be less than 110% of the fair market value per
share of Common Stock on the date of option grant. We
have granted various incentive stock options as well as
non-qualified stock options to key executives,
management and other employees at exercise prices equal
to or below the market price at the date of grant. As
of September 30, 2009, based on the 20% calculation,
the maximum number of shares issuable under the 2001
Plan was 17,756,180, and as of September 30, 2009,
9,682,601 shares remain available for issuance. The
maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be
purchased under our ESPP is 350,000, with a weighted
average exercise price of $1.48. As of September 30,
2009, we have discontinued offering the ESPP, no shares
have been issued subsequent to the original issuance,
and we currently have no intention to issue additional
shares under the ESPP. Since its inception, a total of
22,940 shares of Common Stock have been purchased
pursuant to the ESPP.

On November 20, 2001, our Board of Directors approved a
grant of options to purchase a total of 3,750 shares
(adjusted for reverse split) of our Common Stock at an
exercise price of $2.00 per share to Robert N.
Schwartz, one of the members of our Board of Directors.

On August 2, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the
issuance of warrants to purchase an aggregate of
727,500 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price
of $0.35 per share to the seven initial members of our
Advisory Board, as compensation for participation on
our Advisory Board. The shares underlying these
warrants became fully vested in August 2007. In August
2008, three of the initial Advisory Board members
exercised their warrants in full and a total of 302,500
shares of Common Stock were issued. The other four
initial Advisory Board members, holding an aggregate of
425,000 shares of Common Stock, allowed their warrants
to expire unexercised. In December 2006, our Board of
Directors approved the issuance of a warrant to
purchase 50,000 shares of our Common Stock at an
exercise price of $0.45 per share to Steven Spector,
upon his addition as a member to the Advisory Board.
The shares underlying the warrant issued to Mr. Spector
became fully vested on December 12, 2008. The warrant
issued to Mr. Spector expired unexercised on December
12, 2008. On September 11, 2007, our Board of Directors
approved the issuance of warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 350,000 shares of our Common Stock at an
exercise price of $0.45 per share to six new members of
our Advisory Board. The shares underlying these
warrants became fully vested on September 13, 2009 and
expired on September 13, 2009. On February 15, 2008,
our Board of Directors approved the issuance of a
warrant dated October 30, 2007, to purchase a total of
714,285 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price
of $0.45 per share to Brian Potiker, in consideration
for his continued service as a member of our Advisory
Board. The shares underlying the warrant issued to Mr.
Potiker became fully vested on October 30, 2008, and
the warrant was exercised on October 30, 2009. During
the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, we issued
warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of our Common Stock
to individuals for participation on our Advisory Board.
These warrants were issued at an exercise price of
$0.625. One-third of the shares underlying the warrants
vested immediately, one-third vest on March 16, 2010
and one-third vest on March 16, 2011. These warrants
expire on March 16, 2012. As of September 30, 2009, all
of these warrants remain outstanding. During the Fiscal
Year Ended September 30, 2009, we issued warrants to

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto
appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information set forth in this Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations contains certain forward-looking statements. Please refer to
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-
LOOKING STATEMENTS at the beginning of this Form 10-K for more information about
forward-looking statements.
22
We undertake no obligation to release publicly the results of any future revisions we may
make to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this
report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
OVERVIEW
From 2001 to November 2004, we provided Fortune 500 and Global 500 companies with BPO
solutions into and across the Asia-Pacific region. In November 2004, our active business
operations ceased with the sale of our BPO operations in Asia.
On December 2, 2005, we resumed active operations through newly created indirect
subsidiaries, and we entered into two separate purchase agreements to acquire from Surgical
Ventures, Inc., a California corporation, a controlling interest in Del Mar and Point Loma, two
separate outpatient surgical centers in the San Diego ambulatory surgical centers. In June 2007,
we consolidated the operations of the San Diego ambulatory surgical centers at the Del Mar
facility.
On October 29, 2007, we acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding membership units of RHA.
Based in Oklahoma City, RHA owns and operates three critical access hospitals, one medical clinic
and an ancillary support services units all focused the delivery of healthcare services to rural
communities in Oklahoma. On May 1, 2008, RHA completed a material acquisition with the purchase
of SPMC, a multi-specialty physician practice, also located in Oklahoma. Beginning November 18,
2008, RHA began operating under the trade name Southern Plains Medical Group. On December 11,
2008, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, we acquired the remaining 49% of the issued and
outstanding membership units of RHA, thus making RHA an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.
CHANGE IN THE FISCAL YEAR END
In November 2007, our Board of Directors approved a change to our fiscal year end from
January 31 to September 30. In view of this change, this report includes the twelve-month periods
ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, data for all periods are derived from our audited consolidated
financial statements.
FUNDING
We have sustained operating losses since our inception and had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $95.5 million as of September 30, 2010, which has been funded primarily through the
issuance of preferred stock, the issuance of promissory notes and cash generated from operations.
As of September 30, 2010 we had current liabilities of $10.3 million and current assets of
$6.5 million.
In December 2008, subsidiaries of RHA completed the 2008 Loans. The completion of the 2008
Loans, which carry amortization schedules of 16 years to 20 years and are guaranteed up to 80% by
the USDA, had the effect of reducing our current liabilities by $4.6 million.
In 2009, we completed a bridge financing transaction (the
Bridge Financing
) for
$2.2 million, which was consummated in three separate closings. The notes were due and payable as
follows: $1.5 million was due on November 6, 2009, $0.5 million was due on December 3, 2009, $0.1
million was due on December 31, 2009 and $50,000 was due on January 14, 2010. On the due dates of
the $1.5 million due on November 6, 2009, the $0.5 million due on December 3, 2009 and the $0.1
million due on December 31, 2009, we exercised our right to extend the due dates to February 6,
2010, March 3, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. On the extended due dates, we exercised
our right to again extend the due dates. The $1.5 million previously due on February 6, 2010,
was extended to provide for $0.5 million to be due August 6, 2011 and $1 million to be due
February 6, 2013. The $0.5 million previously due on March 3, 2010 was extended to provide for
$0.2 million to be due on September 3, 2011 and $0.3 million to be due on March 3, 2013. The
$150,000 previously due March 31, 2010 was extended to provide for $100,000 to be due March 31,
2013 and $50,000 to be due September 30, 2011. The $50,000 previously due April 4, 2010 was
extended to be due April 14, 2013.
As disclosed in an August 10, 2010 press release, the Company, as part of its strategic
growth plan entered into various Letters of Intent to acquire new operations with new capital and
divest other existing operations that no longer fit its strategic profile moving forward or no
longer provided any attractive return on capital or was creating a significant drag on
operational performance and company liquidity.
The poorly performing units at the Company have put liquidity pressure on the better
performing facilities. The Company was not able to grow into its cost structure in Oklahoma.
Consequently, we are eliminating poorly performing facilities and the related infrastructure
necessary to support them specifically as it relates to our Oklahoma facilities.
An inability to complete our re-organization would have necessitated a mandatory capital
infusion to sustain our operations
in Fiscal 2011. Management intends to continue to prune its balance sheet in fiscal 2011
and expand its capital base as appropriate or necessary for operations and/or its transaction
needs.
23
Our recurring losses from operations and anticipated future losses raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan of operations, even if successful, may
not result in cash flow sufficient to finance our business. Realization of our assets is
dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon meeting financing
requirements and the success of future operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving profitability and cash
flow and securing additional financing. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to
raise additional funds and that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity to
continue as a going concern, there can be no assurances to that effect.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make certain
estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information
available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which we believe are the most critical
to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the
following:
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are reported at estimated net realizable amounts from services rendered
from federal and state agencies (under the Medicare and Medicaid programs), managed care health
plans, commercial insurance companies, workers compensation, employers and patients. A
significant portion of our revenues are concentrated with federal and state agencies.
Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts are made by means of the line item
Provision for Doubtful Accounts in our financial statements. We write off uncollectible
accounts against the allowance for doubtful accounts after exhausting collection efforts and
adding subsequent recoveries. Net accounts receivable include only those amounts we estimate we
will collect.
We perform an analysis of our historical cash collection patterns and consider the impact of
any known material events in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts. In performing our
analysis, we considered the impact of any adverse changes in general economic conditions,
business office operations, payor mix, or trends in federal or state governmental healthcare
coverage.
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets
We review long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangible assets and goodwill related to
these assets for impairment. For assets to be held and used, including acquired intangibles, we
initiate a review whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of
a long-lived asset may not be recoverable and annually for goodwill and other intangible assets
not subject to amortization. Recoverability of an asset is measured by comparison of its carrying
value to the future undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. Any
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the
projected discounted future operating cash flows. Assets to be disposed of and for which
management has committed a plan to dispose of the assets, whether through sale or abandonment,
are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, we determined there was no impairment of
Goodwill, however we recorded an impairment of $187,000 of the intangible assets of The Chandler
Clinic arising from the sale of the operation on December 1, 2010. See Item 8, Footnote No. 17,
Subsequent Events for a discussion of the sale of The Chandler Clinic.
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, we determined that an impairment of the
goodwill previously recorded upon the acquisition of RHA had occurred. An impairment charge of
$209,000 was recorded. In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008, we recorded an impairment of
$308,000 with respect to fixed assets at Point Loma arising from the termination of activities at
this facility as part of our review of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangible assets
and goodwill.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or
performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable
or reasonably assured.
24
Income Taxes
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by recognizing deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. We record a valuation
allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be
realized.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
Financial Accounting Standards Board (
FASB
) Accounting Standards Codification
(
ASC
) 740 creates a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions
by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition,
measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure
and transition. There are no unrecognized tax benefits to disclose in the notes to the
consolidated financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective February 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB ASC
718, Accounting for Compensation Arrangements, using the modified prospective application
method. Our stock option plans are described in Note 15 to our financial statements contained in
Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted
average shares of Common Stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of Common Stock and potential
common shares outstanding during the year. Potential common shares outstanding consist of
dilutive shares issuable upon the conversion of our preferred stock to Common Stock as computed
using the if-converted method and the exercise of outstanding options and warrants to purchase
Common Stock, computed using the treasury stock method.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance on Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51. This guidance requires companies with
non-controlling interests to disclose such interests clearly as a portion of equity but separate
from the parents equity. The non-controlling interests portion of net income must also be
clearly presented on the income statement. This is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and was adopted by us in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2010. The adoption of the new rules did not have a material impact on our financial
condition or results of operation.
In December 2007, the FASB issued updated guidance on business combinations. This guidance
applies the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations where the acquirer gains a
controlling interest, regardless of whether consideration was exchanged. The updated guidance
requires the acquirer to fair value the assets and liabilities of the acquiree and record
goodwill on bargain purchases and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008 and was adopted by us in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.
The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operation.
In January 2010, new guidance was issued regarding improving disclosures about fair value
measurements. This standard amends the disclosure guidance with respect to fair value
measurements for both interim and annual reporting periods. Specifically, this standard requires
new disclosures for significant transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 in
the fair value hierarchy; separate disclosures for purchases, sales, issuance and settlements of
Level 3 fair value items on a gross rather than net, basis; and more robust disclosure of the
valuation techniques and inputs used to measure Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities.
Except for the detailed disclosures of changes in Level 3 items, which will be effective as of
October 1, 2011, the remaining new disclosure requirements are effective as of October 1, 2010.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash equivalents,
accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Carrying value of notes payable and long-term debt approximate fair values as they bear market
rates of interest. None of our financial instruments are held for trading purposes.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 2010 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009
Revenue
Revenue of $39.5 million was generated in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 compared
with $39.1 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, an increase of 1.02%, primarily
due to the inclusion of a full year of The Chandler Clinic operations during Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2010 and only five months during Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses and Provision for Doubtful Accounts
Selling, general and administrative expenses, including provision for doubtful accounts,
consisted primarily of employee-related costs that are directly related to providing goods or
services, such as salaries and benefits of administrative and support personnel, rental,
insurance premiums and costs relating to other outside services.
Selling, general and administrative expenses and provision for doubtful accounts totaled
$44.2 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 and $44.1 million in the Fiscal Year
Ended September 30, 2009. Operating efficiencies realized at the parent company and RHA were
offset by additional operating expenses at Del Mar which was commensurate with the increase in
revenue.
Amortization of Stock-Based Compensation
Amortization of stock-based compensation consists of the expense incurred as the grant of
options and warrants to purchase common stock vest over the term of the grant agreements. Since
2006, we have granted to officers, employees and members of our Advisory Board options to
purchase our common stock.
We granted options to purchase 650,000 and 1,839,390 shares of our common stock during the
Fiscal Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively. As a result of the decreased number
of shares granted during the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2010 and the related vesting
schedules, the amortization of stock-based compensation expense decreased to $1,078,000 during
the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2010 from $1,245,000 during the Fiscal Year ended September
30, 2009.
See Item 8, Footnote No. 14, Stock Options for a discussion of our stock option plans and
stock-based compensation.
26
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, we determined there was no impairment of
Goodwill, however we recorded an impairment of $187,000 of the intangible assets of The Chandler
Clinic arising from the sale of the operations on December 1, 2010. See Item 8, Footnote No. 17,
Subsequent Events, for a discussion of the sale of The Chandler Clinic. In the Fiscal Year
Ended September 30, 2009, we determined that an impairment of the goodwill previously recorded
upon the acquisition of RHA had occurred. An impairment charge of $209,000 was recorded.
Operating Loss
As a result of the foregoing, we had an operating loss in the Fiscal Year Ended September
30, 2010 of $7.3 million compared to an operating loss of $7.5 million in the Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2009, or a decrease of 3.2%. The operating loss decreased as a result of operating
efficiencies achieved at the parent company and RHA and revenue growth at Del Mar.
Other Income (Expense)
In Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, we received $429,000 of insurance proceeds which
were a reimbursement for tornado damage at one of our critical access hospitals.
We had no gain or loss from the sale of assets in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010.
We recognized a $281,000 loss from the sale of a 10.9% equity interest in Del Mar in the Fiscal
Year Ended September 30, 2009.
Interest Income
We had interest income of $42,000 in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 and $42,000 in
the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009.
Interest Expense
We recorded interest expense of $2.0 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 and
$2.1 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, reflecting a decrease of 4.8%. This
decrease was due primarily to a decrease in the interest rate on the Bridge Financing.
Non-Controlling Interest
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, non-controlling interest amounted to ($0.7)
million, compared to ($0.2) million for the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009. The increase
in non-controlling interest over the prior years is due to improved earnings at Del Mar coupled
with the increased ownership share of Del Mar non-controlling interests.
Taxation
FASB ASC 740 creates a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions
by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before
being recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on
de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure and transition. There are no unrecognized tax benefits to disclose in the
notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Net Income or Loss Before Non-Cash Beneficial Conversion Feature
As a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net loss of $9.5 million and $10.1, in the
Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively, a decrease of $0.6 million or 5.9%
The net loss decreased as a result of operating efficiencies achieved at the parent company and
RHA and revenue growth at Del Mar.
Non-Cash Beneficial Conversion Feature Preferred Dividend
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a $48,000 non-cash beneficial
conversion feature preferred dividend expense compared to $317,000 in the Fiscal year Ended
September 30, 2009, relating to the issuance of our 5-A Preferred and 6-A Preferred, each
together with warrants, during the periods. The expense, which arose from a beneficial conversion
feature resulting from the fact that such convertible securities could be converted into our
Common Stock at an amount below its market price on the commitment date of the securities, was
recognized in accordance with FASB standards on accounting for convertible securities with
beneficial conversion features.
27
Net Income or Loss Allocable to Common Stockholders
Net income or loss allocable to common stockholders is computed from net income or loss and
adding or deducting deemed non-cash dividend to preferred stockholders and credit on exchanges.
We had net loss allocable to common stockholders of $9.5 million, or ($0.64) per basic share in
the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, compared with $10.4 million, or $(0.94) per basic share
in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.7 million as of September 30, 2010, compared with
$2.3 million as of September 30, 2009.
At September 30, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $3.7 million and a stockholders
deficit of $16.4 million, as compared to a working capital of $1.8 million and a stockholders
deficit of $9.0 million at September 30, 2009. We have long-term liabilities of $16.6 million as
of September 30, 2010, compared to $12.4 million as of September 30, 2009. To date, we have
financed our operations primarily through sales of preferred and common equity, issuance of
promissory notes, and cash from operations.
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $2.9 million in the Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2010, compared with $3.5 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009. The
decrease in net cash used in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 arose from the decrease in
the net operating loss during the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010.
Net cash provided in (used) by investing activities in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30,
2010 was $1.4 million, compared to ($4.3) million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009.
During the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, cash was provided by the removal of restrictions
on $1.5 million of cash held on deposit with the former debt holder on the SPMC building. The net
cash used by investing in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to the
purchase of real property for our hospital located in Stroud, Oklahoma and the acquisition of the
remaining membership units in RHA, which we did not previously own.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.9 million in the Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2010, compared with $7.2 million in the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009. Net
cash provided by financing activities in the Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was
provided primarily by the issuance of promissory notes. At September 30, 2010, we had total
liabilities of $28.6 million and assets of $25.7 million.
Our recurring losses from operations and anticipated future losses raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan of operations, even if successful, may
not result in cash flow sufficient to finance our business. Realization of our assets is
dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon meeting financing
requirements and the success of future operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving profitability and cash
flow and securing additional financing. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to
raise additional funds and that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity to
continue as a going concern, there can be no assurances to that effect.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCING
We currently have no off-balance sheet financing arrangements, other than operating
leases.

Other contractual obligations consist primarily of obligations to purchase goods or
services that are enforceable and legally binding on us. These obligations specify all
significant terms and are not cancelable without a penalty. Our obligations primarily relate to
software licensing, clinical coding, medical waste removal, equipment maintenance and linen
service.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
INTEREST RATE RISK
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash on
deposit with high quality financial institutions and a portion of our long-term debt that is
based on prime rates. We are exposed with respect to interest rate fluctuations in the U.S. as
changes in U.S. interest rates affect the interest earned on our cash and interest paid on our
debt.
FOREIGN CURRENCY RISK
We derive our revenues from operations in the United States. All of our revenues are
currently denominated in U.S. dollars. An increase or decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar
relative to foreign currencies does not have a material impact on the demand for our services or
on our expenses. Currently, we do not hedge against any foreign currencies and, as a result,
could incur unanticipated gains or losses.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of First Physicians Capital Group,
Inc. (the Company), as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended.
The Companys management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control
over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits of the financial
statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Company, as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as
a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of
$9,544,000 during the year ended September 30, 2010, and, as of that date, had a working capital
deficiency of $3,716,000. As noted in footnote 1 to the financial statements, the recurring losses
from operations and anticipated future losses raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability
to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FIRST PHYSICIANS CAPITAL GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Company Background
We were originally incorporated in Nevada in October 1980 and re-incorporated in Delaware in
November 2000. From 2001 to November 2004, we provided Fortune 500 and Global 500 companies with
customizable and comprehensive business process outsourcing (
BPO
) solutions into and
across the Asia-Pacific region. In November 2004, our active business operations ceased with the
sale of our BPO operations in Asia.
On December 16, 2005, at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to amend
our Certificate of Incorporation to change our legal name from Vsource, Inc. to Tri-Isthmus
Group, Inc. (
TIGroup
) and to reduce the number of authorized shares of our common
stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
Common Stock
), from 500,000,000 shares to
100,000,000 shares, as described in our Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the
SEC
) on November 28, 2005. The reduction of the number of authorized
shares of our Common Stock did not affect the number of shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding.
During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2007 (the
Fiscal Year Ended January 31,
2007
), we resumed active operations following the acquisition of two ambulatory surgical
centers located in Southern California. On December 2, 2005, through newly created indirect
subsidiaries, we entered into two separate purchase agreements to acquire from Surgical Ventures,
Inc., a California corporation, a controlling interest in two separate outpatient surgical
centers in San Diego, California, Point Loma Surgical Center, L.P. and Outpatient Surgery of Del
Mar, L.P., and we completed these acquisitions on November 16, 2006. On February 9, 2007, we
converted these limited partnerships into Outpatient Surgery of Point Loma, L.L.C. (
Point
Loma
) and Outpatient Surgery of Del Mar, L.L.C. (
Del Mar
, and, together with
Point Loma, the
San Diego ambulatory surgical centers
), respectively. In June 2007,
we consolidated the operations of the San Diego ambulatory surgical centers at the Del Mar
facility.
On October 29, 2007, we acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Rural
Hospital Acquisition, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company (
RHA
). Based in
Oklahoma City, RHA owns and operates three critical access hospitals, one medical clinic and an
ancillary support services unit, all focused on the delivery of healthcare services to rural
communities in Oklahoma. On May 1, 2008, RHA Anadarko, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of RHA,
purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Southern Plains Medical
Center (
SPMC
). Founded in 1915, SPMC is one of the oldest continuously operating
multi-specialty physician practices in the United States. Located in Chickasha, Oklahoma, SPMCs
15 physicians and other licensed healthcare providers deliver primary and specialty care in the
following areas: family medicine; pediatrics; internal medicine; acute care; occ/med; general
surgery; gynecology; ophthalmology; orthopedic surgery; radiology; oncology; cardiology and
urology. Ancillary services provided onsite include imaging (computer-assisted tomography (
CT
), magnetic resonance imaging (
MRI
), mammography, x-ray, EKG, vascular and
ultra-sound bone densitometry) and laboratory services. SPMC also provides urgent care services
outside of normal business hours seven days a week through its Quick Care department. Beginning
November 18, 2008, RHA began operating under the trade name Southern Plains Medical Group. On
December 11, 2008, we acquired the remaining 49% of the issued and outstanding membership units
of RHA, making RHA an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.
On December 12, 2008, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into three loan agreements,
effective November 6, 2008, with two Oklahoma-based lenders, Bank of Commerce and Valliance
Bank, resulting in an aggregate debt financing of $8.4 million. We obtained the financing to
purchase the building and real property of the Stroud Regional Medical Center Hospital and
clinics, refinance existing loans totaling $4.6 million, upgrade facilities at the Johnston
Memorial Hospital and improve the consolidated balance sheet and maintain general working
capital. The loans are evidenced by promissory notes issued by RHA Anadarko, LLC, RHA Stroud, LLC
and RHA Tishomingo, LLC, two of which mature on November 6, 2028 and one of which matures on
November 6, 2024.
On May 1, 2009, we purchased The Chandler Clinic (
TCC
), a family medical practice
located in Chandler, Oklahoma. TCC is located within the service area of the Stroud Regional
Medical Center. As further described in Note 19, Subsequent Events, on December 1, 2010, we
sold the operations of The Chandler Clinic.
On September 29, 2009, at our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, our stockholders voted to
amend our Certificate of Incorporation to change our legal name from Tri-Isthmus Group, Inc. to
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. to reflect our focus on the healthcare industry. We became
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. on September 29, 2009.
Following the sale of our BPO operations in November 2004, we reduced our headcount
significantly to a two-person staff when David Hirschhorn and Todd Parker joined us as our
Co-Chief Executive Officers in July 2005. Our new management initiated a growth strategy defined
by acquisitions. Our management team and Board of Directors have been and are currently comprised
of a group of individuals with complementary talents across a broad range of disciplines,
including mergers and acquisitions, finance and operations.
35
During the Fiscal Years Ended January 31, 2006 and January 31, 2007, our management team
focused our acquisition strategy on the healthcare industry.
In December 2006, we resumed active operations following the acquisition of the San Diego
ambulatory surgical centers.
In 2007, we refined our acquisition strategy to focus on the delivery of financial and
managerial services to healthcare facilities in non-urban markets.
In September 2007, David Hirschhorn became our sole Chief Executive Officer upon Todd
Parkers resignation. Dennis M. Smith, formerly a director and senior consultant to us, re-joined
us as our Chief Financial Officer. On October 9, 2008, Mr. Smiths employment agreement with us
was terminated. Effective January 26, 2009, Mr. Smith ceased to be our Chief Financial Officer.
Upon the termination of his employment agreement, Mr. Smith had certain contractual rights,
pursuant to which we continued to pay Mr. Smith until April 9, 2009. Mr. Smith was offered a
severance package to continue his pay beyond April 9, 2009 in recognition for past services
rendered, and Mr. Smith accepted the severance package which entitled him to severance payments
which began May 10, 2009 and lasted until October 20, 2009. Mr. Smith had and has no
disagreements with us on any matter related to our operations, policies or practices. On March 3,
2009, Mr. Smith resigned as a member of our Board of Directors.
In November 2008, we appointed Thomas Rice as President of RHA. Mr. Rice has over 37 years
experience in the administration and operation of healthcare facilities, including key senior
management positions with major Oklahoma-based healthcare services companies. Also in November
2008, we announced the addition of Donald C. Parkerson as Chief Financial Officer of RHA, a
position he held until June 2009 when he ceased acting as the CFO of RHA. On January 30, 2009,
Mr. Parkerson was also appointed as our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Parkerson has served in
financial leadership positions with companies in healthcare businesses during his more than
30-year career. In November 2008, we hired Richard Rentsch as Vice President of Finance of RHA,
and currently he serves as the Chief Accounting Officer of RHA. Mr. Rentsch is an experienced
financial leader with more than 25 years of healthcare experience.
Our support staff at RHAs hospitals and Del Mar consists of registered nurses, operating
room technicians, an administrator who supervises the day-to-day activities of the surgery center
and a small number of office staff. Each operating unit also has appointed a medical director,
who is responsible for and supervises the quality of medical care provided at the center. Use of
our surgery centers is limited to licensed physicians. With the acquisition of SPMC in May 2008,
we added 15 physicians and other healthcare providers to our team at RHA as employees. Our
business depends upon the efforts and success of these physicians and non-employee physicians who
provide medical services at our facilities. Our business could be adversely affected by the loss
of our relationship with, or a reduction in use of our facilities by, a key physician or group of
physicians.
As discussed above, in December 2008, RHA became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours
with the acquisition by RHA of the interests not already held by us.
On January 13, 2010, Southern Plains Medical Center, Inc., our wholly-owned indirect
subsidiary and an Oklahoma corporation (
SPMC
), entered into a sale/leaseback
transaction pursuant to a purchase agreement, whereby SPMC sold certain property to Southern
Plains Associates, LLC (SPA). SPA is an Oklahoma limited liability company, in which our
wholly-owned subsidiary, First Physicians Realty Group, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability
company owns 50% and Capital Investors of Oklahoma, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company
own the other 50%.
The purchase price for the sale/leaseback transaction was paid to SPMC as follows: (i)
$1,500,000 was paid in the form of a promissory note, dated January 13, 2010, and (ii) $4,500,000
was paid in cash at the closing. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, First Physicians Realty Group, LLC,
an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA, and Capital Investors of Oklahoma, LLC,
an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA.
In connection with the purchase agreement, SPMC leased back from SPA the property sold,
pursuant to a lease agreement dated December 16, 2009. The lease agreement provides for a 20-year
term with an automatic 10-year renewal.
The $4,500,000 in cash proceeds was used to pay off short-term debt associated with the
property sold in the amount of $3,700,942, plus related interest. SPMC received net proceeds of
$732,221 after retirement of the debt and other associated closing costs. Restricted cash on
deposit with the debt holder and pledged as a security on the debt in the amount of $1,524,091
was released and returned to us.
On June 14, 2010, Sean Kirrane was hired as the Vice President of Finance and Controller. Mr.
Kirrane has over 10 years experience in senior finance and accounting roles for large publicly
traded companies. On August 23, 2010, Mr. Kirrane was appointed to serve as the Companys
Principal Accounting Officer following Mr. Parkersons departure.
36
On August 23, 2010 Donald C. Parkerson resigned his position as Chief Financial Officer,
effective this same date. Mr Parkersons employment with the Company was governed by an Executive Services Agreement,
dated June 27, 2008, by and between the Company and Tatum LLC. Mr. Parkerson had no
disagreements with us on any matter related to our operations, policies or practices.
Strategy
Our initial strategy was to identify and invest in platform companies in the business
services and healthcare industries that provided essential core offerings, which could be
expanded over time. As we focused our efforts in the healthcare industry, two particular
segments, ambulatory surgical centers and rural hospitals, stood out in terms of
fundamentally-favorable economics, positive regulatory trends, inherent cost advantages,
improving demographics and, for non-urban healthcare opportunities, a large, under-served market.
We determined that the top-down trends and attractive cash flows of ambulatory surgical centers
made this an area of particular interest. Less well-known, however, is the non-urban sector,
which has suffered from a long-term lack of access to capital despite providing care to more than
50 million people in the United States. We determined that focusing on rural healthcare could
represent a significant long-term opportunity for us.
On October 29, 2007, we acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding membership units of RHA.
Based in Oklahoma City, RHA owns and operates three critical access hospitals, one medical clinic
and an ancillary support services unit, all focused on the delivery of healthcare services to
rural communities in Oklahoma. Together, the acquisition of RHA and the subsequent acquisition of
SPMC by RHA are referred to herein collectively as the
RHA Acquisition
, and the three
RHA hospitals, the medical clinic, ancillary support services units and SPMC are referred to
herein collectively as the
RHA Healthcare Operations
. On May 1, 2008, RHA purchased
100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of SPMC. Beginning November 18, 2008, RHA
began operating under the trade name Southern Plains Medical Group. On December 11, 2008,
through one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, we acquired the remaining 49% of the issued and
outstanding membership units of RHA, making RHA an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary.
Our portfolio was expected to consist of (i) majority interests in healthcare platforms or
facilities, such as RHA, the San Diego ambulatory surgical center and SPMC and (ii) equity
positions in a diversified portfolio of minority interests in ambulatory surgical centers with a
history of positive cash flows. In addition, we expect to selectively invest in business
solutions providing financial and processing services to healthcare providers and physicians and
in support of new treatment solutions.
In line with our strategy, we re-branded our activities. The operations in the non-urban
market previously known as RHA were re-branded Southern Plains Medical Group to leverage the
old and well-established recognition that SPMC has in the regional markets. In addition,
effective September 29, 2009, we changed our name to First Physicians Capital Group, Inc. to
reflect our focus on the healthcare industry.
In response to local market economic conditions including the expected impact of changes in
healthcare law, during the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2010 we have shifted our strategy and embarked upon initiatives to reorganize our
operations. Our strategy has transitioned away from majority ownership in healthcare delivery
companies to a focus on healthcare management services and the financing of equipment and real
estate used by healthcare entities. We will maintain or acquire minority ownership in selected
healthcare delivery companies that complement our management services and financing activities.
We will also invest in, acquire or partner with other companies that provide similar services in
our markets.
In pursuit of this reorganization, we are divesting underperforming facilities and reducing
or outsourcing administrative functions to better align cost structures and business volume.
Funding
We have sustained operating losses since our inception and had an accumulated deficit of
approximately $95.5 million as of September 30, 2010, which has been funded primarily through the
issuance of preferred stock and common stock, the issuance of promissory notes and cash generated
from operations.
As of September 30, 2010 we had current liabilities of $10.3 million and current assets of
$6.5 million.
Upon completion of the RHA Acquisition in October 2007, RHA assumed a bank obligation in the
amount of $4.4 million (the
RHA Loan
). With the completion of the SPMC acquisition by
RHA in May 2008, we acquired SPMC bank obligations in the amount of $4.5 million. In December
2008, subsidiaries of RHA obtained three loans totaling an aggregate of $8.4 million, the
proceeds of which were used for (i) the purchase of the real property and assets of the hospital
operated by RHA in Stroud, Oklahoma for a consideration of $3.2 million pursuant to an existing
option agreement; (ii) the repayment of the RHA Loan and (iii) the financing of capital
expenditures, fees associated with the financings and working capital requirements (the
2008 Loans
). The 2008 Loans carry amortization schedules of 16-years to 20-years and are
guaranteed up to 80% by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development 80% Business &
Industry Loan Guarantee program (
USDA
). The completion of the 2008 Loans had the
effect of reducing our current liabilities by $4.6 million.
37
Our recurring losses from operations and anticipated future losses raise substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plan of operations, even if successful, may
not result in cash flow sufficient to finance our business. Realization of our assets is
dependent upon our continued operations, which in turn is dependent upon meeting financing
requirements and the success of future operations.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on improving profitability and cash
flow and securing additional financing. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to
raise additional funds and that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity to
continue as a going concern, there can be no assurances to that effect. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of
asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary if we are
unable to continue as a going concern.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make certain
estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information
available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which we believe are the most critical
to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the
following:
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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 actual results could differ
from estimates and assumptions made.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications and format changes have been made to the prior period amounts in
order to conform to the current period presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash consists of cash on hand and amounts deposited with high quality financial
institutions. Amounts on deposit at times exceeds the insurance limits. Cash equivalents are
highly liquid instruments including cash in money market current accounts that are
interest-bearing, capital guaranteed and without any withdrawal restrictions.
Restricted cash consists of funds on deposit with a bank held as security for debt relating
to the SPMC acquisition.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are reported at estimated net realizable amounts from services rendered
from federal and state agencies (under the Medicare and Medicaid programs), managed care health
plans, commercial insurance companies, workers compensation, employers and patients. A
significant portion of our revenues are concentrated with federal and state agencies.
Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts are made by means of the line item
Provision for Doubtful Accounts in our financial statements. We write off uncollectible
accounts against the allowance for doubtful accounts after exhausting collection efforts and
adding subsequent recoveries. Net accounts receivable include only those amounts we estimate we
will collect.
We perform an analysis of our historical cash collection patterns and consider the impact of
any known material events in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts. In performing our
analysis, we considered the impact of any adverse changes in general economic conditions,
business office operations, payor mix, or trends in federal or state governmental healthcare
coverage.
38
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation for property and equipment is
provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Computer hardware
|
|
|

|
|
Buildings
|
|
|

|
|
Leasehold improvements
|
|
|
15 years
|
|
Depreciation for leasehold improvements is provided using the straight-line method over the
shorter of the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or the remaining lease term.
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-lived Assets
We review long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangible assets and goodwill related to
these assets for impairment. For assets to be held and used, including acquired intangibles, we
initiate a review whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of
a long-lived asset may not be recoverable and annually for goodwill and other intangible assets
not subject to amortization. Recoverability of an asset is measured by comparison of its carrying
value to the future undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. Any
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the
projected discounted future operating cash flows. Assets to be disposed of and for which
management has committed a plan to dispose of the assets, whether through sale or abandonment,
are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell.
In the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, we determined there was no impairment of
Goodwill, however we recorded an impairment of $187,000 of the intangible assets of The Chandler
Clinic arising from the sale of the operations on December 1, 2010. See Note 19, Subsequent
Events, for a discussion of the sale of The Chandler Clinic. In the fiscal year ended September
30, 2009 (the
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009
), we determined that an impairment
of the goodwill previously recorded upon the acquisition of RHA had occurred. An impairment
charge of $209,000 was recorded.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or
performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable
or reasonably assured.
Income Taxes
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by recognizing deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We record a valuation
allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be
realized.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
Financial Accounting Standards Board (
FASB
) Accounting Standards Codification
(
ASC
) 740 creates a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions
by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition,
measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure
and transition. There are no unrecognized tax benefits to disclose in the notes to the
consolidated financial statements.
Functional Currency
Our functional currency is United States dollars.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to expenses, gains and losses that under generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States are included in comprehensive income (loss)
but are excluded from net income (loss), as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment
to stockholders equity, net of tax. Our other comprehensive income (loss) is composed of
unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation adjustments.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective February 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB ASC
718, Accounting for Compensation Arrangements, using the modified prospective application method. Our stock
option plans are described in Note 14.
39
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted
average shares of Common Stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares of Common Stock and potential
common shares outstanding during the year. Potential common shares outstanding consist of
dilutive shares issuable upon the conversion of our preferred stock to Common Stock as computed
using the if-converted method and the exercise of outstanding options and warrants to purchase
Common Stock, computed using the treasury stock method.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance on Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51. This guidance requires companies with
non-controlling interests to disclose such interests clearly as a portion of equity but separate
from the parents equity. The non-controlling interests portion of net income must also be
clearly presented on the income statement. This is effective for financial statements issued for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and was adopted by us in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2010. The adoption of the new rules did not have a material impact on our financial
condition or results of operation.
In December 2007, the FASB issued updated guidance on business combinations. This guidance
applies the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations where the acquirer gains a
controlling interest, regardless of whether consideration was exchanged. The updated guidance
requires the acquirer to fair value the assets and liabilities of the acquiree and record
goodwill on bargain purchases and is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008 and was adopted by us in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.
The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operation.
In January 2010, new guidance was issued regarding improving disclosures about fair value
measurements. This standard amends the disclosure guidance with respect to fair value
measurements for both interim and annual reporting periods. Specifically, this standard requires
new disclosures for significant transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 in
the fair value hierarchy; separate disclosures for purchases, sales, issuance and settlements of
Level 3 fair value items on a gross rather than net, basis; and more robust disclosure of the
valuation techniques and inputs used to measure Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities.
Except for the detailed disclosures of changes in Level 3 items, which will be effective as of
October 1, 2011, the remaining new disclosure requirements are effective as of October 1, 2010.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash equivalents,
accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Carrying value of notes payable and long-term debt approximate fair values as they bear market
rates of interest. None of our financial instruments are held for trading purposes.

The gross value of leased capital assets were $7,002,889 at September 30, 2010 and
$608,704 at September 30, 2009 which are included in Property and Equipment on the Consolidated
Balance Sheet. The accumulated amortization on leased capital assets was $665,960 and $113,012 at
September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009, respectively. Amortization of capital lease assets is
recognized over the term of the lease on a straight line basis and included in depreciation
expense.

7. Advance to Affiliated Entity
On April 28, 2006, we entered into an agreement with CSA II, LLC, a Cayman Islands company
controlled by Dennis M. Smith, one of our former directors. Under the terms of this agreement, we
advanced $333,333 to CSA II, LLC to finance the purchase of securities issued by Cross Shore
Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (
Cross Shore
), pursuant to a private
placement of $112,000,008 of Cross Shores securities completed on April 24, 2006. The securities
were listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange (the
AIM
) and started trading on April 28, 2006 and ceased trading on the AIM on September 4, 2009. On
August 29, 2007, Cross Shore completed an acquisition by way of a reverse merger
with Research Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (
RPS
) and changed its name to RPS as
part of the transaction. At September 30, 2007, CSA II, LLC held 167,420 common shares in RPS. In
addition, for consideration of $239.38, we purchased warrants to purchase 239,375 membership
units of CSA II, LLC, constituting 22.5% of the total issued limited liability company interests
outstanding on a fully diluted basis upon payment of the exercise price equal to $0.001 per unit.
On May 24, 2006, we received a partial repayment of this advance in the amount of $60,654,
leaving a balance of approximately $272,000 at January 31, 2007. On June 12, 2006, we were
reimbursed $75,000, representing expenses associated with this advance. In October 2007,
approximately $33,000 was reimbursed to us, leaving a balance outstanding of $239,000. Mr.
Smiths interests in RPS represent less than 2% of the issued and outstanding share capital of
RPS as of the date of the completion of the reverse merger in August 2007. In light of the
disruption in the overall economy at the time, the volatility in the financial markets and
restrictions applicable to the sale of RPS common shares by CSA II, LLC, we recorded a charge of
$71,635 as a reserve against the repayment of this advance during the Fiscal Year Ended September
30, 2009.
8. Bridge Financing
During the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, we entered into a bridge financing
transaction (the
Bridge Financing
) which was consummated in three separate closings.
On February 11, 2009, we completed the first closing of the Bridge Financing, a transaction in
which we entered into the following two promissory notes, each dated as of February 6, 2009: (i)
a convertible promissory note with SMP Investments, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company
(
SMP
), in the principal amount of $500,000 and (ii) a convertible promissory note
with Anthony J. Ciabattoni, Trustee of the Ciabattoni Living Trust, dated August 17, 2000 (
Ciabattoni
), in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (collectively, the
Bridge
Notes
). SMP and Ciabattoni are each a
Bridge Lender
and are collectively
referred to herein as the
Bridge Lenders
.
On February 11, 2009, in addition to the issuance of the Bridge Notes, we issued four
warrants to purchase Common Stock to the Bridge Lenders as follows: (i) a warrant issued to SMP
for the purchase of up to 375,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $0.50
per share and exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance; (ii) a warrant
issued to SMP for the purchase of up to 250,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise
price of $0.75 per share and exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance;
(iii) a warrant issued to Ciabattoni for the purchase of up to 750,000 shares of Common Stock at
an initial exercise price of $0.50 per share and exercisable for a period of three years from the
date of issuance and (iv) a warrant issued to Ciabattoni for the purchase of up to 500,000 shares
of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $0.75 per share and exercisable for a period of
three years from the date of issuance.
Each Bridge Note originally became due and payable on November 6, 2009; we extended these
notes under the terms of an extension option contained in the Bridge Notes. Pursuant to the terms
of the extension option, we are required to issue warrants to the Bridge Lenders to purchase
shares of Common Stock in the following amounts: (i) to SMP, 125,000 shares at a price of $0.50
per share, and 83,333 shares at a price of $0.75 per share and (ii) to Ciabattoni, 250,000 shares
at a price of $0.50 per share, and 166,667 shares at a price of $0.75 per share. The new due date
of the Bridge Notes pursuant to the extension option was February 6, 2010; we were to repay the
unpaid principal of each Bridge Note on this date, together with accrued and unpaid interest of
16% per annum.
The Bridge Lenders have agreed to extensions as follows: the maturity date of the promissory
note held by SMP, in the principal amount of $500,000, is extended to August 6, 2011; the
maturity date of the promissory note held by Ciabattoni, in the principal amount of $1,000,000,
is extended to February 6, 2013. Effective February 1, 2010, the interest rate was changed from
16% to 10% per annum for the Bridge Notes.
The Bridge Notes include a conversion feature allowing each Bridge Lender to convert all or
any portion of the entire unpaid principal and any unpaid accrued interest at the date upon which
the conversion is to be effected into a number of shares of Common Stock, determined by dividing
the sum of the unpaid principal and unpaid accrued interest at the conversion date by the
conversion price in effect at the conversion date. The initial conversion price is $0.625, which
price is adjustable as set forth in the Notes. As of September 30, 2010, none of the Bridge
Lenders has effected such a conversion.
The Bridge Notes include a provision granting the Bridge Lenders, to the extent that the
Bridge Lenders holding notes representing a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Bridge Notes agree, demand registration rights with respect to the resale of the
shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the Bridge Notes, which rights
vest thirty six (36) months after the date of issuance of the Bridge Notes. The registration
statement would be prepared by us at our expense and filed on Form S-1 or other appropriate form
and, once declared effective, allow the registered securities to be sold on a continuous basis
and we will keep the registration statement continuously effective until certain conditions are
met which would allow us to stop maintaining its effectiveness.

On March 3, 2009, we completed the second closing of the Bridge Financing, a transaction in
which we entered into nine (9) promissory notes, each dated as of March 3, 2009, in the aggregate
principal amount of $500,000 (the
Second Bridge Notes
), with various investors (the
Second Bridge Lenders
).
Each Second Bridge Note originally became due and payable on December 3, 2009, unless the
maturity date is extended pursuant to the terms of an extension option. The Second Bridge Notes include a conversion
feature allowing each Second Bridge Lender to convert all or any portion of the entire unpaid
principal and any unpaid accrued interest at the date upon which the conversion is to be effected
into a number of shares of Common Stock, determined by dividing the sum of the unpaid principal
and unpaid accrued interest at the conversion date by the conversion price in effect at the
conversion date. The initial conversion price is $0.625, which price is adjustable as set forth
in the Second Bridge Notes. As of September 30, 2010, none of the Second Bridge Lenders has
effected such a conversion.
We extended the Second Bridge Notes for an additional three months under the terms of the
extension option contained in the Second Bridge Notes. Upon exercising this option, we were
required to issue warrants to the Second Bridge Lenders to purchase an aggregate of 208,333
shares of our Common Stock, 125,000 shares of which will be issued at an exercise price of $0.50
per share and 83,333 shares of which will be issued at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. The
new due date for the Second Bridge Notes pursuant to the extension option was March 3, 2010. The
Second Bridge Lenders have agreed to an additional extension period for the Second Bridge Notes
ranging from eighteen to thirty-six months from the March 3, 2010 due date and also agreed to a
reduction in the annual interest rate from 16% to 10%.
The Second Bridge Notes also include a provision granting the Second Bridge Lenders, to the
extent holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Bridge Notes
and Second Bridge Notes agree, demand registration rights with respect to the resale of the
shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the Second Bridge Notes, which
rights vest thirty-six (36) months after the date of issuance of the Second Bridge Notes. The
registration statement would be prepared by us at our expense and filed on Form S-1 or other
appropriate form and, once declared effective, allow the registered securities to be sold on a
continuous basis and we will keep the registration statement continuously effective until certain
conditions are met which would allow us to stop maintaining its effectiveness.
On April 14, 2009, we completed the third closing of the Bridge Financing, a transaction in
which we entered into the following three (3) promissory notes: (i) a convertible promissory
note, dated as of March 31, 2009, with Frank Darras, Trustee of the Darras Family Trust (
Darras
), in the principal amount of $100,000 (the
Darras Note
); (ii) a
convertible promissory note, dated as of March 31, 2009, with SFV, Inc., a California corporation
(
SFV
), in the principal amount of $50,000 (the
SFV Note
) and (iii) a
convertible promissory note, dated as of April 14, 2009, with NFS LLC/FMTC Rol IRA FBO Neal Katz
(
Katz
), in the principal amount of $50,000 (the
Katz Note
) (each, a
Third Bridge Note
and collectively, the
Third Bridge Notes
). Darras, SFV and
Katz are each a
Third Bridge Lender
and are collectively referred to herein as the
Third Bridge Lenders
.
The Darras Note and the SFV Note originally became due and payable on December 31, 2009 and
the Katz Note originally became due and payable on January 14, 2010. The terms of each of the
Third Bridge Notes contained an extension option to extend such notes for an additional three
months at our discretion. We extended the Darras Note and the SFV Note under the terms of the
respective options, and therefore are obligated to issue warrants to Darras and SFV as follows:
(i) Darras 25,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, and 16,667 shares at an
exercise price of $0.75 per share; (ii) SFV 12,500 shares at an exercise price of $0.50 per
share, and 8,333 shares at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. We extended the Katz Note under
the terms of an extension option contained in the Katz Note. By exercising this option, we are
required to issue warrants to Katz to purchase an aggregate of 20,833 shares, 12,500 shares of
which will be issued at an exercise price of $0.50 per share and 8,333 shares of which will be
issued at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. The new due dates for the Third Bridge Notes,
pursuant to the extension option, were March 31, 2010 for each of the Darras Note and the SFV
Note and April 14, 2010 for the Katz Note. The Third Bridge Lenders have agreed to an additional
extension period for the notes ranging from eighteen to thirty-six months from the March 31, 2010
and April 14, 2010 due dates and also agreed to a reduction in the annual interest rate from 16%
to 10%.
The Third Bridge Notes include a conversion feature allowing each Third Bridge Lender to
convert all or any portion of the entire unpaid principal and any unpaid accrued interest at the
date upon which the conversion is to be effected into a number of shares of Common Stock,
determined by dividing the sum of the unpaid principal and unpaid accrued interest at the
conversion date by the conversion price in effect at the conversion date. The initial conversion
price is $0.625, which price is adjustable as set forth in the Third Bridge Notes.
The Third Bridge Notes include a provision granting the Third Bridge Lenders, to the extent
the holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the notes issued in
the Bridge Financing agree, demand registration rights with respect to the resale of the shares
of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the Third Bridge Notes, which rights
vest thirty-six (36) months after the date of issuance of the Third Bridge Notes. The
registration statement would be prepared by us at our expense and filed on Form S-1 or other
appropriate form and, once declared effective, allow the registered securities to be sold on a
continuous basis and we will keep the registration statement continuously effective until certain
conditions are met which would allow us to stop maintaining its effectiveness.
43
The fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the convertible notes issued under
the Bridge Financing amounted to $932,000, and the fair value of the warrants issued in
conjunction with the extension of the Bridge Notes, the Second Bridge Notes, the Darras Note, the
SFV Note and the Katz Note amounted to $291,000. The beneficial conversion feature associated
with the convertible notes issued in conjunction with the Bridge Financing totaled $253,000. Both
the fair value of the warrants issued under the Bridge Financing and the subsequent extension of
the Bridge Notes, the Second Bridge Notes the Darras Note, the SFV
Note and the Katz Note, as well as the beneficial conversion feature, will be amortized over
the term of the loans. Amortization for the Fiscal Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009
amounted to $522,000 and $952,000, respectively.
Sales of Unregistered Equity Securities
On May 15, 2008, we sold and issued 25 shares of 5-A Preferred to an investor, pursuant to a
Series 5-A Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement. Such investor represented to us in
writing that he was an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act. On May 15, 2008, in connection with this issuance, we also
issued warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of our Common Stock to an investor, pursuant to the
same Series 5-A Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement. These warrants are exercisable
for a period of 2 years at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. Such investor represented to us
in writing that he was an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501 of
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
In May 2009, we accepted warrant exercises in the amount of 60,000 shares of Common Stock
for an aggregate amount of $30,000 from one investor, who represented to us in writing that he is
an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated
under the Securities Act. The shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of warrants originally
issued on March 23, 2007, in connection with a private placement of our 5-A Preferred to various
investors.
In September 2009, we accepted warrant exercises in the amount of 60,000 shares of Common
Stock for an aggregate amount of $30,000 from two investors, each of whom represented to us in
writing that he is an accredited investor, as that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D promulgated under the Securities Act. The shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of
warrants originally issued on August 10, 2007 and March 8, 2007 in connection with a private
placement of our 5-A Preferred to various investors.
On May 21, 2010, we accepted warrant exercises in the amount of 60,000 shares (the
Warrant Exercise Shares
) of Common Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000
from one investor. The Warrant Exercise Shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of a warrant
to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, in connection with
the private placement of our Series 5-A Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock.
The investor represented to us in writing that he is an Accredited Investor, as that term is
defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the
Securities Act
). The offers and sales of the Warrant Exercise Shares pursuant to
the warrant exercises were exempt from the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of
the Securities Act, by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated
thereunder.

10. Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests attributable to the equity interests in SPA, RHA, Del Mar and
Point Loma not held by us and recorded during the Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009
amounted to $681,000 and $177,000 respectively.
On December 11, 2008, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with RHA,
pursuant to which RHA repurchased 49% of the issued and outstanding voting membership units of
RHA for an aggregate purchase price of $1,800,000. In connection with the repurchase, RHA issued
a promissory note and we entered into a limited guaranty agreement of RHAs obligations under the
promissory note.
During the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009, we entered into a series of equity
transactions at Del Mar, which resulted in an increase in non-controlling interests held in Del
Mar. Non-controlling interests increased from 39% at September 30, 2008 to 65% at September 30,
2009 and 2010. However, we have a 3:2 voting majority on the board of managers, which gives us
control of the management decisions of the center, and Del Mar is still subject to
consolidation.
During the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, SPMC, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary,
entered into a sale/leaseback transaction pursuant to a purchase agreement, whereby SPMC sold
certain property to SPA. The purchase price for the sale/leaseback transaction was paid to SPMC
as follows: (i) $1,500,000 was paid in the form of a promissory note, dated January 13, 2010, and
(ii) $4,500,000 was paid in cash at the closing. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, First Physicians
Realty Group, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA, and Capital Investors
of Oklahoma, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company, owns 50% of SPA. First Physicians Realty
Group, LLC has control of SPA and is therefore consolidated into First Physicians Capital Group,
Inc.

67,600 respectively, shares of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding with an
aggregate liquidation value of $167,000 and $169,000 respectively. In the event of any

distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds, to the holders of the Common Stock by reason
of their ownership thereof, a preference amount per share consisting of the sum of (A) $2.50 for
each outstanding share of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock and (B) an amount equal to
declared but unpaid dividends on such shares, if any. Each share of Series 1-A Convertible
Preferred Stock shall be convertible at any time after the date of issuance of such shares, into
such number of fully paid shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the original issue
price by the then-applicable conversion price in effect on the date the certificate evidencing
such share is surrendered for conversion. Each share of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock,
subject to the surrendering of the certificates of the Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock,
shall be automatically converted into shares of Common Stock at the then-effective conversion
price, immediately upon closing of a public offering of our Common Stock with aggregate gross
proceeds of at least $10.0 million and a per share price of at least $5.00, or at the election of
the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock.
The holder of each share of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock has the right to that number
of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued upon conversion of
the Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock
are entitled to non-cumulative dividends, if declared by our Board of Directors, of $0.20 per
share annually. Under certain circumstances, such as stock splits or issuances of Common Stock at
a price less than the issuance price of the Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock, these shares
are subject to stated Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock conversion price adjustments. There
are currently three holders of Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock.
Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock
As of the end of the Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, we had 3,900 and 3,900

entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or
surplus funds, to the holders of the Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, a
preference amount per share consisting of the sum of (A) $6.41 for each outstanding share of
Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock and (B) an amount equal to declared but unpaid dividends
on such shares, if any. Each share of Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock shall be convertible
at any time after the date of issuance of such shares, into such number of fully paid shares of
Common Stock as is determined by dividing the original issue price by the then-applicable
conversion price in effect on the date the certificate evidencing such share is surrendered for
conversion. Each share of Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to the surrendering of
the certificates of the Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock, shall be automatically converted
into shares of Common Stock at the then-effective conversion price, immediately upon closing of a
public offering of our Common Stock with aggregate gross proceeds of at least $20.0 million and a
per share price of at least $13.00, or at the election of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock. The holder of each share of Series
2-A Convertible Preferred Stock has the right to that number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued upon conversion of the Series 2-A Convertible
Preferred Stock. Holders of the Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to

to stated Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock conversion price adjustments. There is currently
one holder of Series 2-A Convertible Preferred Stock.
Series 5-A Convertible Preferred Stock
Under the terms of the Series 5-A Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement, in the

Preferred shall be entitled to receive,
pari passu
with the 6-A Preferred, after distribution
of all amounts due to the holders of the Series 1-A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series 2-A
Convertible Preferred Stock, but prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets
or surplus funds to the holders of the Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, a
preference amount per share consisting of the sum of (A) the original issue price, which
initially is $1,000 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and the like)
plus (B) an amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends on such shares, if any. Each share
of 5-A Preferred shall be convertible at any time after the date of issuance of such shares, into such number of fully paid shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the original issue
price by the then-applicable conversion price in effect on the date the certificate evidencing
such share is surrendered for conversion. Each share of 5-A Preferred, subject to the
surrendering of the certificates of the 5-A Preferred, shall be automatically converted into shares of Common Stock at the then-applicable conversion price, upon the election of the holders
of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares of 5-A Preferred electing to effect such
conversion. The holder of each share of 5-A Preferred shall have the right to that number of
votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issued upon conversion of the
5-A Preferred. Holders of the 5-A Preferred are entitled to non-cumulative dividends, if declared
by our Board of Directors, of $40 per share annually. Under certain circumstances, such as stock

Convertible Preferred Stock, these shares are subject to stated Series 5-A Convertible Preferred
Stock conversion price adjustments. Shares of 5-A Preferred had an initial conversion price of
$0.3125 per share.
49
Shares of 5-A Preferred Stock are subject to redemption at our option or if required by a
majority of the outstanding 5-A Preferred shares after certain events have occurred (Triggering
Events). Triggering Events include our failure to honor a properly tendered request for
conversion and if our Common Stock is not eligible for quotation on certain public stock
exchanges including the OTC Bulletin Board and the Nasdaq Small Cap Market. No Triggering Event
has occurred as of September 30, 2010.

Net proceeds from the issuance totaled $3.3 million. As of September 30, 2010, all of the

to receive,
pari passu
with the 5-A Preferred, after distribution of all amounts due to the

but prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets or surplus funds to the
holders of the Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, a preference amount per share
consisting of the sum of (A) the original issue price, which initially is $1,000 (as adjusted for
stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and the like) plus (B) an amount equal to all
declared but unpaid dividends on such shares, if any. The holders of 6-A Preferred shall be
entitled to receive dividends
pari passu
with the 5-A Preferred stockholders. Each share of 6-A
Preferred shall be convertible at any time after the date of issuance of such shares, into such
number of fully paid shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the original issue price
by the then-applicable conversion price in effect on the date the certificate evidencing such
share is surrendered for conversion. Each share of 6-A Preferred, subject to the surrendering of
the certificates of the 6-A Preferred, shall be automatically converted into shares of Common
Stock at the then-applicable conversion price, upon the election of the holders of not less than
a majority of the outstanding shares 6-A Preferred electing to effect such conversion. The holder

splits and certain other corporate events). The 2000 Plan expires on July 6, 2010, unless it is
terminated earlier or suspended by the Board of Directors. The 2000 Plan is not subject to any
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. As of each of September 30,
2009 and September 30, 2008 options to purchase an aggregate of 27,171 shares of Common Stock
were outstanding under the 2000 Plan, with a weighted average exercise price of $15.25. We do not
intend to issue any further options under the 2000 Plan or warrants to purchase stock to
additional individuals or vendors as compensation for services rendered. This plan was allowed
to expire.
In 2001, our Board of Directors approved the 2001 Stock Options/Stock Issuance Plan (the
2001 Plan
). Stockholders at the 2001 Annual Meeting approved the 2001 Plan in November
2001. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2001 Plan cannot
exceed 20% of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding at the time the calculation is made
(including, on an as-converted basis, all convertible preferred stock, convertible debt
securities, warrants, options and other convertible securities that are exercisable), but in no
event can the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be issued under this plan as
incentive stock options exceed 20,000,000. As of September 30, 2010 and 2009, based on the 20%
calculation, the maximum number of shares issuable under the 2001 Plan was 16,108,800 and
16,750,800 respectively. Options are generally granted for a term of ten years and generally vest
over periods ranging from one to three years. We have granted various non-qualified stock options
to key executives, management and other employees at exercise prices equal to or below the market
price at the date of grant.
On November 10, 2008, in connection with the appointment of Thomas Rice as President and
Chief Operating Officer of RHA, we entered into an Option Grant Agreement, under which we granted
to Mr. Rice an incentive stock option to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock, at an
exercise price of $0.625 per share, which option shall expire on November 10, 2015. Mr. Rices
option to purchase Common Stock shall vest incrementally on the following vesting schedule: (1)
125,000 shares vested immediately on November 10, 2008; (2) 125,000 shares vested on November 10,
2009; and (3) 250,000 shares shall vest on November 10, 2010. For the Fiscal Years Ended
September 30, 2010 and 2009, the amortization recognized was $57,000 and $86,000 respectively.
On April 22, 2009, pursuant to the terms of our 2001 Plan, we granted options (the
2009
Employee Options
) to employees of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, RHA (the
2009
Employee Optionees
), to purchase an aggregate of 1,319,390 shares of Common Stock in
variable individual amounts. Pursuant to the terms of the Option Grant Agreements, and subject to
the terms of the 2001 Plan, the shares underlying the 2009 Employee Options vest according to the
following schedule: (1) one-quarter vested immediately upon the date of issuance, (2) an
additional one-quarter of the 2009 Employee Option Shares vest upon the passing of the one year
anniversary of the date of issuance and (3) the remaining one-half of the 2009 Employee Option
Shares vest upon the second anniversary of the date of issuance. The 2009 Employee Options were
issued at an exercise price of $0.625 per share and are exercisable by the 2009 Employee
Optionees with respect to all or any of the vested 2009 Employee Option Shares until April 22,
2016, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2001 Plan and the related Option Grant
Agreements. For the Fiscal Years Ended September 30,2010 and 2009, the amortization recognized
was $146,000 and $201,000 respectively.
51
On May 27, 2009, in connection with the employment of David Jamin as the administrator
of RHA Stroud, LLC, we entered into an Option Grant Agreement, under which we granted to Mr.
Jamin an incentive stock option to purchase up to 20,000 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise

vest on May 27, 2012. For the Fiscal Years Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the amortization
recognized was $0 and $2,000, respectively. As of September 30, 2010, 20,000 shares had expired
effective with Mr. Jamins termination.
On December 29, 2009, in connection with Dan Chens employment agreement, we entered into an
option grant agreement with Mr. Chen effective as of December 29, 2009, under which we granted to
Mr. Chen an incentive stock option to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Common Stock, at an
exercise price of $0.625 per share, which option shall expire on December 29, 2016. Mr. Chens

thereafter (with the final options vesting on the fourth anniversary date of the date of grant).
The amortization recognized in connection with this option for the Fiscal Year Ended September
30, 2010 was $80,000.
On June 14, 2010, in connection with Sean Kirranes employment agreement, we entered into an
option grant agreement with Mr. Kirrane effective as of June 14, 2010, under which we granted to
Mr. Kirrane an incentive stock option to purchase up to 150,000 shares of Common Stock, at an
exercise price of $0.625 per share, which option shall expire on June 14, 2017. Mr. Kirranes

thereafter (with the final options vesting on the fourth anniversary date of the date of grant).

30, 2010 was $23,000.

The intrinsic value of options that have an exercise price below the market price at September
30, 2010 is $72,000.
As of September 30, 2010, there was $2,402,000 in unrecognized compensation cost related to
outstanding options, net of forecasted forfeitures. This amount is expected to be recognized over a
weighted average of 2.4 years.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In November 2001, our stockholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
ESPP
), which provides (after adjustment to reflect our November 20, 2002 reverse stock
split) for the issuance of a maximum of 350,000 shares of Common Stock. Eligible employees can
have up to 10% of their earnings withheld, up to certain maximum limits, to be used to purchase
shares of Common Stock at certain plan-defined dates. The price of Common Stock purchased under
the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the
commencement date and specified purchase date of each six-month offering period. We have
discontinued offering the ESPP and no shares have been issued subsequent to the original
issuance, and we have no current intention to issue any more shares under the ESPP.
15. 401(k) Plan
We sponsor a 401(k) employee savings plan (
401(k) Plan
) under which eligible U.S.
employees may choose to defer a portion of their eligible compensation on a pre-tax basis,
subject to certain IRS limitations.

The valuation allowance at September 30, 2010, principally applies to federal tax loss
carry-forwards that, in the opinion of the management, are more likely than not to expire before
we can use them.
As of September 30, 2010, we had net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $48.7
million, available to offset future regular, alternative minimum and foreign taxable income, if
any. Change of ownership of more than 50% occurred on June 22, 2001 and according to applicable
U.S. tax laws, losses that occurred before that date are limited to $0.3 million per year for up
to 20 years, totaling approximately $6.5 million. The loss carryovers will expire between 2011
and 2029. Changes in our ownership may lead to further restrictions in respect of the
availability and use of these tax losses.
53
FASB ASC 740 creates a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions
by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition,
measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure
and transition. There are no unrecognized tax benefits to disclose in the notes to the
consolidated financial statements.
17. Subsequent Events
In preparing these financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions
for potential recognition or disclosure through January 31, 2011, the date on which the financial
statements became available to be issued. The Company noted the following items for disclosure.
Reorganization of Operations
:
As disclosed in an August 10, 2010 press release, the Company, as part of its strategic
growth plan entered into various Letters of Intent to acquire new operations with new capital and
divest other existing operations that no longer fit its strategic profile moving forward or no
longer provided any attractive return on capital or was creating a significant drag on
operational performance and company liquidity.
The poorly performing units at the Company have put liquidity pressure on the better
performing facilities. The Company was not able to grow into its cost structure in Oklahoma.
Consequently, we are eliminating poorly performing facilities and the related infrastructure
necessary to support them specifically as it relates to our Oklahoma facilities.
An inability to complete our re-organization would have necessitated a mandatory capital
infusion to sustain our operations in Fiscal 2011. Management intends to continue to prune its
balance sheet in fiscal 2011 and expand its capital base as appropriate or necessary for
operations and/or its transaction needs.
Operational Changes:
Additionally, the Company had carried a fully staffed administrative and back office
operation in Oklahoma City, OK that no longer fit the long term needs of the Company. An
outsourced solution, joint venture solution or working with eventual merger partners larger back
office solution provided a more attractive and more flexible approach for the Company moving into
the 2011 fiscal operating year. Management also believes that the potential merger partners and
transactions it has been pursuing provide a better and more efficient back office solution than
what the Company currently has in place.
Proposed Corporate Structure Changes
:
The Company has continued to work with its bank lenders to effect a separation of its
operations from its real estate assets to provide more access to less expensive capital related
to its accounts receivable, equipment and its real estate. The Company has received various
indications of interest to provide financing once this separation has been completed. The
Company previously discussed this desire during the recently completed fiscal year 2010. There
is no guarantee the Company will complete these financing opportunities, Management believes they
are available if needed once the Company restructures its operations.
Contemplated and Completed Asset Sales
:
The Company is a more attractive merger partner with the completion of the transactions
described below in Managements opinion. Management also believes that it would not be prudent
to continue to carry the non-core operations as they created a significant negative financial
drag on the Company including creating pressure on operating liquidity and vendor relationships.
Transactions
:
Management pursued offers and interest from various parties to divest itself of the
following non-core business lines as part of a one-time reorganization of its operations and
administrative offices:
|
|
|
The Chandler Clinic
|
|
|
|
|
Johnson Memorial Hospital in Tishomingo OK
|
|
|
|
|
Southern Plains Medical Clinic
|
54
Chandler-Sale
In December 2010, Southern Plains Medical Group LLC successfully sold its Chandler Clinic to
the physician group that it was originally purchased from. The Company has no further
obligations or interests in this facility. The buyer assumed the liabilities and leases related
to this facility in the transaction. The company did not receive any consideration at closing.
Johnson Memorial Hospital in Tishomingo OK-Sale
In January 2011, Southern Plains Medical Group LLC signed an agreement related to Johnson
Memorial Hospital in Tishomingo OK to sell the hospital operations to one group and the real
estate and equipment to another group. As part of the transaction, the USDA mortgage debt
related to the facility was retired in the amount of $1.14 million. The transaction structure
includes an escrow agreement related to transaction related representations, warranties and
indemnities which will remain in place for a period of time and restrict the Companys access to
approximately $500,000 in net sale proceeds after bank debt repayment. The gross proceeds in the
transaction was $1.687 million in cash plus retention of net accounts receivable of approximately
$275,000. As part of the Tishomingo sale, the Company expects to transition a significant
portion of its back office operation in cooperation with the new owner. The Company may continue
this co-back office arrangement for a period of time or indefinitely or it may opt to completely
outsource these functions. The company does expect a wind-down of its corporate back office and
revenue cycle management operations in Oklahoma City in fiscal 2011 in favor of another solution.
Southern Plains Medical Clinic LOI
The Company has entered into a Letter of Intent to sell the Southern Plains Medical Clinic
to a consortium of local healthcare services providers in Oklahoma. The contemplated transaction
is a sale of the stock of SPMC including the related real estate held in our First Physicians
Realty Group. The transaction would also transfer any and all debt related to SPMC that the
Company holds to the buyer which at present is approximately $4.7 million plus related operating
liabilities and accrued expenses as the parties deem appropriate. While there are no guarantees
the transaction will be consummated as currently contemplated, the Company believes it should
close during the first calendar quarter of 2011.
Other Operating Facilities in Oklahoma
While the Company has signed LOIs with potential buyers for its other facilities in
Oklahoma there is no guarantee that those transactions will be completed. The Company continues
to receive both solicited and un-solicited proposals from time to time to sell, joint-venture,
partner or combinations of approaches. The Company is always open to transactions that make good
business sense relative to its strategic plan, provide an appropriate buyer or partners for the
community the facility is located and creates a good opportunity for the employees working at
those facilities.
Acquisitions, Mergers and Growth Initiatives:
The Company has continued its dialogues with the businesses in its transaction pipeline.
Additionally, the Company met with bank lenders and other capital providers to the extent
funding would be required for these transactions. These transactions may or may not be
completed. These transactions may or may not result in a change in control of the Company.
Other
:
Local Management Changes
in Oklahoma:
On
February 14, 2011, Tom Rices employment as President and Chief
Operating Officer at Southern Plains Medical Group was terminated by
mutual agreement. While Mr. Rice had an employment agreement and
severance agreement, by mutual consent he accepted 3 months severance
plus vesting of his stock options per the Company stock option plan
terms. His resulting severance payments will begin once certain
asset sales and the reorganization of the Oklahoma operations are
completed.
Certain Common Stock Warrants
Management has been in discussions with the holders of certain common stock warrants as they
related to Series 5A and 6A preferred and certain advisory board warrants and bridge loan
warrants that expired during Fiscal 2010 for any number of reasons to extend those warrants. The
number of warrants involved is approximately 6,415,200. Management expects to document the
changes if any, during the first calendar quarter of 2011.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules
13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of September 30, 2010. Based on such evaluation, such
executive officers have concluded that, as of September 30, 2010, our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to
us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be included in our reports filed or
submitted under the Exchange Act. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer
also concluded that the controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial
officers or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during
the quarter ended September 30, 2010, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Assessment of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Our management assessed the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010. The
criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in
Internal Control Integrated Framework were used to make this assessment. Management believes
that our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010 is effective based on
those criteria.
This Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting
firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to

Board Meetings and Committees
The Board of Directors did not meet during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. It did
however take action by unanimous written consent on eleven (11) occasions. During the Fiscal
Year Ended September 20, 2010, our board decided to transition to monthly and twice-monthly board
and committee calls (that included all board members and minimally 4 out of 5 board members)
given the volume of transactions, financings and operationally changes being undertaken and
contemplated by the company. This approach proved more efficient and obtained more input and
leverage from the board and more timely dialog given the sheer volume of project and negotiations
in process simultaneously. As the first large phase of the Companys reorganization is nearing
completion the board expects to resume is normal quarterly meeting schedule with monthly interim
board calls.
Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors
Our stockholders may communicate with the members of our Board of Directors and may
recommend nominees to our Board of Directors by writing directly to our Board of Directors or
specified individual directors at the following address:
First Physicians Capital Group, Inc.
Attn: Corporate Secretary
9663 Santa Monica Boulevard, #959
Beverly Hills, California 90210
Our Secretary will deliver stockholder communications to the specified individual director,
if so addressed, or to one of our directors who can address the matter.
Compensation of Directors
Mr. Hirschhorn is the only director also serving as a full-time employee of ours as of
September 30, 2010. He receives no additional compensation for serving as a director. With
respect to non-employee, independent directors, our philosophy is to provide competitive
compensation necessary to attract and retain qualified non-employee, independent directors.
In addition, on November 17, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the grants of options to
acquire an aggregate of 360,000 shares of our Common Stock to two independent directors. The
shares underlying these options vested in quarterly increments over three years, with an
effective grant date of August 1, 2005. The exercise price of these options is $0.40 per share,
which was the closing price of our Common Stock on November 17, 2005. These options were granted
with Black-Scholes assumptions of 99% volatility, $0.37 share price, risk-free interest rates of
4.1% and exercise price of $0.40.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and officers and persons who
beneficially own more than ten percent of our Common Stock to file with the SEC reports of
beneficial ownership on Forms 3 and changes in beneficial ownership of our Common Stock and other
equity securities on Form 4s or Forms 5. SEC regulations require all officers, directors and
greater than 10% stockholders to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
58
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us
during, and Forms 5 and amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to, the Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2010, and any written representations from reporting persons that no Form 5 is
required, the following table sets forth information regarding each person who, at any time
during the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, was a director, officer or beneficial owner of
more than 10% of our Common Stock who failed to file on a timely basis, as disclosed in the above
forms, reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during the Fiscal Year Ended
September 30, 2010:

). The Code of Ethics applies to
the Board, the Chief Executive Officer, the President, the Chief Operations Officer (should one
be appointed), the Chief Financial Officer, each financial or accounting officer at the level of
the principal accounting officer or controller and all other Section 16 reporting executive

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
|
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Compensation Philosophy and Compensation Program Objectives
As a growing public company operating in the competitive healthcare industry, we place
high value on attracting and retaining our executives since it is their talent and performance
that is responsible for our success. Therefore, our compensation philosophy is to create a
performance-based culture that attracts and retains a superior team. We aim to achieve this goal
by designing a competitive and fiscally responsible compensation program to:
|
|
|
Attract the highest caliber of talent required for the success of our business;
|
|
|
|
|
Retain those individuals capable of achieving challenging performance standards;
|
|
|
|
|
Incent our executives to strive for superior company-wide and individual performance; and
|
|
|
|
|
Align management and stockholder interests over both the short and long-term.
|
Our executive compensation program is designed in a manner to offer a compensation package
that utilizes three key elements: (1) base salary, (2) annual cash incentives and (3) long-term
equity incentives. We believe that together these performance-based elements support the
objectives of our compensation program.
|
|
|
Base Salaries.
We seek to provide competitive base salaries factoring
in the position, the executives skills and experience, the
executives performance, as well as other factors. We believe
appropriate base salary levels are critical in helping us to attract
and retain talented executives.
|
|
|
|
|
Annual Cash Incentives.
The aim of this element of compensation is to
reward individual contributions to align with our annual operating
performance and to recognize the achievement of challenging
performance standards.
|
|
|
|
|
Long-Term Equity Incentives.
The long-term element of our compensation
program consists of discretionary grants of equity awards which are
reviewed annually. These are designed to align our interests with
those of management, employees and our stockholders by directly
linking individual compensation to our long-term performance, as
reflected in stock price appreciation and increased stockholder value.
|
59
Below is a description of our executive compensation process and a detailed discussion of
each of the key elements of our compensation program as they apply to the executive officers
named in the Summary Compensation Table set forth below. Because we are a growing public company,
we will continue to review the overall design of our executive compensation program to ensure
that it is structured to most effectively meet our compensation philosophy and objectives. We
will also evaluate the program in the context of competitive market practice, as well as
applicable legal and regulatory guidelines, including IRS rules governing the deductibility of
compensation. This review may result in changes to the program we use today.
The Executive Compensation Process
The Board of Directors
We established a Compensation Committee in September 2007 with responsibility for
determining all aspects of officer and director compensation, which goes through the following
process prior to determining equity compensation:
|
|
|
Reviewing and approving our compensation philosophy;
|
|
|
|
|
Determining executive compensation levels;
|
|
|
|
|
Annually reviewing and assessing performance goals and objectives for
all executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer; and
|
|
|
|
|
Determining short-term and long-term incentive compensation for all
executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officers and Chief
Financial Officer.
|
Upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors is responsible
for making all decisions with respect to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer. In the first quarter of each the fiscal year, the Compensation Committee
reviews base salaries, determines payout amounts for annual cash incentives and reviews long-term
equity for the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. In the first quarter of
the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, the Compensation Committee met as needed to consider
specific contracts of executive officers, as revised from time to time, including a meeting to
discuss David Hirschhorns employment agreement. Upon recommendation from the Compensation
Committee, the Board of Directors reviews and establishes performance metrics for the current
years annual incentive plan.
Outside Compensation Advice
The Compensation Committee may also seek compensation advice from our Advisory Board. These
individuals advise the Board of Directors on compensation plan design issues, regulatory changes
and best practices related to compensation.
Benchmarking Process
When making compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considers the competitive
market for executives and compensation levels provided by comparable companies. Though we
generally target salary levels at the median of our peer group, total compensation may exceed or
fall below the median for our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Since one of
the objectives of our compensation program is to consistently reward and retain top performers,
actual compensation will vary depending on individual and our overall performance.
Compensation of Executive Officers
Mr. Hirschhorn joined us as Co-Chief Executive Officer and Co-Chief Financial Officer in
July 2005, during a period when we were discontinuing active operations and entering a new
industry. In order to attract Mr. Hirschhorn, we negotiated a compensation package with Mr.
Hirschhorn that provided increasing annual salaries as we grow and other incentives that align
his interests with those of our stockholders. Mr. Hirschhorn entered into an initial employment
agreement, effective July 18, 2005, in which he received annual base salaries for the years
ending July 18, 2006, 2007 and 2008, of $204,000, $240,000 and $360,000, respectively, and was
eligible for an annual target incentive bonus of up to 300% of the applicable base salary. This
bonus was payable upon achievement of certain performance targets set by the Board of Directors.
Under his employment agreement, Mr. Hirschhorn was guaranteed annual incentive bonuses of
$50,000, $75,000 and $100,000. Mr. Hirschhorn was also issued no less than 50,000 vested shares
of our restricted Common Stock annually beginning with the second year of his employment
agreement. At the time of his hire, Mr. Hirschhorn was also issued 1,250,000 restricted shares of
our Common Stock. The cash components of Mr. Hirschhorns compensation package were intentionally
set below market with performance incentives that would compensate him as we grew. The
combination of Mr. Hirschhorns compensation structure and the equity awards granted to him at
the time of his hire created a heavy weighting on long-term incentives. Mr. Hirschhorn entered
into a second employment agreement, effective July 1, 2008, in which he will receive annual base
salaries for the years ending July 1, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 of $480,000, $540,000,
$600,000, $630,000 and $661,500, respectively, and he is eligible for an annual incentive bonus
as determined by the Compensation Committee of an amount not exceeding three times the base
salary or 10% of our EBITDA for the immediately preceding fiscal year. Mr. Hirschhorn has also
received options to purchase up to 6,250,000 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price
of $0.625 per share. Mr. Hirschhorns shares vest according to the following schedule: 1,250,000
shares vested on July 1, 2009; 1,250,000 shares vest on July 1, 2010; 1,250,000 shares vest on
July 1, 2011; 1,250,000 shares vest on July 1, 2012 and the last 1,250,000 vest on July 1, 2013.
60
Details regarding Mr. Hirschhorns current compensation package are contained in the
tables that follow, and a description of Mr. Hirschhorns employment agreement is described below
as well. We continue to evaluate the components and level of compensation for our executive
management.
Mr. Kirrane joined us as Vice President of Finance and Controller in June 2010, following
the resignation of Donald Parkerson our CFO, Mr. Kirrane was appointed to serve as the Companys
Principal Accounting Officer. Mr. Kirrane entered into an initial employment agreement
effective June 9, 2010, in which he received an annual base salary of $150,000 with an automatic
increase upon completing six months of employment to $165,000. Mr. Kirrane is eligible for an
annual incentive bonus of up to 50% of his fiscal year end base salary, prorated the first year
to percentage of time worked, based upon a percentage of 10% of adjusted EBITDA as defined in
the bonus pool for all other C-level executives at the Company. Mr. Kirrane was also granted an
incentive stock option to purchase up to 150,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of
$0.625 per share. Mr Kirranes options vested on the following schedule, 30,000 immediately,
and 30,000 each anniversary over the next four years.
Details regarding Mr. Kirranes compensation package are contained in the tables that
follow, and a description of Mr. Kirranes employment agreement is described below as well. We
continue to evaluate the components and level of compensation for our executive management.
Components of the Executive Compensation Program
Though we feel it is important to provide competitive cash compensation, we believe that a
substantial portion of executive compensation should be performance-based. We believe it is
essential for executives to have a meaningful equity stake linked to our long-term performance
and, therefore, we have created compensation packages that aim to foster an owner-operator
culture. Other than base salary, compensation of our executive officers and other key associates
is also largely comprised of variable or at risk incentive pay linked to our financial and
stock performance and individual contributions. Other factors we consider in evaluating executive
compensation include internal equity, external market and competitive information, assessment of
individual performance, level of responsibility and the overall expense of the program. In
addition, we also strive to offer competitive benefits and appropriate perquisites.
Base Salary
Base salary represents the fixed component of our executive officers compensation.
Following the review and recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board of Directors
sets base salary levels based upon experience and skills, position, level of responsibility, the
ability to replace the individual and market practices. The Compensation Committee reviews base
salaries of the executive officers annually and approves all salary increases for the executive
officers. Increases are based on several factors, including the Compensation Committees
assessment of individual performance and contribution, promotions, level of responsibility, scope
of position and competitive market data. These salaries are below the salary level normally
provided to a Chief Executive Officer and/or Chief Accounting Officer of a company of comparable
size, complexity and performance and below the median level of our peer group.
Annual Cash Incentives
Our executive officers have the opportunity to earn cash incentives for meeting annual
performance goals. Following review and recommendation of the Compensation Committee, the Board
of Directors establishes financial and performance targets and opportunities linked to our
overall performance.
Long-Term Equity Incentives
Our executive officer compensation is heavily weighted in long-term equity, as we believe
superior stockholder returns are achieved through an ownership culture that encourages a focus on
long-term performance by our executive officers. By providing our executive officers with an
equity stake in our future, we are better able to align the interests of our executive officers
and our stockholders. In establishing long-term equity incentive grants for our executive
officers, the Compensation Committee reviews certain factors, including the outstanding equity
grants held both by the individual and by our executives as a group, total compensation,
performance, accumulated wealth analysis that includes projections of the potential value of
vested equity (which is prepared reflecting assumptions about future stock price growth rates),
the vesting dates of outstanding grants, tax and accounting costs, potential dilution and other
factors.
Perquisites and Other Benefits
We do not generally provide material perquisites that are not, in the Board of Directors
view, integrally and directly related to the executive officers duties. Our executive officers
also participate in other broad-based benefit programs that are generally available to our
salaried employees, including health, dental and life insurance programs.
61
Retirement Plans
The Board of Directors believes that an important aspect of attracting and retaining
qualified individuals to serve as executive officers involves providing methods for those
individuals to save for retirement. We currently do not have an established a retirement plan for
our executive officers, but may create one in the future.
Benefits Upon Termination of Employment
We have employment agreements with Mr. Hirschhorn, our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kirrane,
Vice President of Finance and Principal Accounting Officer, Mr. Chen, Managing Director, Director
of Corporate Development and Mr. Rice, an executive officer of RHA. The agreement with Mr.
Hirschhorn provides that in the event Mr. Hirschhorn is terminated without cause we are obligated
to pay Mr. Hirschhorn certain lump sum payments, as set forth below in the table entitled The
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.
Mr. Kirrane joined us as Vice President of Finance in June 2010. Mr. Kirranes employment
was effective June 14, 2010, pursuant to which he will receive an annual base salary of $150,000,
with an automatic increase after 6 months of employment to $165,000 per fiscal year. In the
event Mr. Kirranes employment is terminated during the first six months of employment, he shall
receive the continued payment of his base salary for three months. In the event Mr. Kirranes
employment is terminated between six and twenty months of employment, he shall receive the
continued payment of his base salary for six months. In the event Mr. Kirranes employment is
terminated after two years of employment, he shall receive the continued payment of his pay base
for twelve months.
Mr. Rice joined us as President and Chief Operating Officer of RHA in November of 2008. Mr.
Rice entered into an employment agreement, effective November 10, 2008, pursuant to which he will
receive an annual base salary of $275,000 per fiscal year. In the event Mr. Rices employment is
terminated without cause or upon death or disability, RHA is obligated to pay Mr. Rice certain
severance payments. If the termination occurs after Mr. Rice has been employed for less than
twelve consecutive months, he shall receive the continued payment of his base salary for six
months following the termination date. If the termination occurs after Mr. Rice has been employed
for at least twelve consecutive months, he shall receive the continued payment of his base salary
for twelve months following the termination date..
The Board of Directors believes that the severance provisions contained in the employment
agreements are an important element in attracting and retaining executive officers. See The
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control
below for information with respect to potential payments and benefits under these employment
agreements and our other compensation arrangements upon the termination of our executive
officers.
Tax and Accounting Matters
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the
Code
), enacted as part of
the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, generally disallows a tax deduction to public
companies for compensation over $1,000,000 paid to the Chief Executive Officer and the four other
most highly compensated executive officers. Under Internal Revenue Service regulations,
qualifying performance-based compensation will not be subject to the deduction limit if certain
requirements are met. The Compensation Committee does not believe that any of the executive
compensation arrangements for the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 will result in the loss of
a tax deduction pursuant to Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee expects to continue to
monitor the application of Section 162(m) to executive compensation and will take appropriate
action if it is warranted in the future.
We operate our compensation programs with the intention of complying with Section 409A of
the Code. Effective February 1, 2006, we began accounting for stock-based compensation with
respect to our long-term equity incentive award programs in accordance with the requirements of
existing accounting standards.

Mr. Hirschhorn was entitled to a guaranteed bonus
payment in the amount of $56,250 during the Transition
Period Ended September 30, 2007. He did not receive
this bonus during the Transition Period Ended September
30, 2007, we have reserved this bonus amount in its
financial statements.

|
|
Mr. Hirschhorn has voluntarily agreed to assist with
our liquidity needs by deferring payment of $100,000 of
his salary, which was earned, from August 1, 2010
through September 30, 2010.

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
Mr. Hirschhorn is party to an employment agreement with us dated effective as of July 1,
2008 and approved by our Compensation Committee. The employment agreement expires on July 1,
2013. Under the employment agreement, Mr. Hirschhorn receives annual base salaries for the years
ending July 1, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 of $480,000, $540,000, $600,000, $630,000 and
$661,500, respectively, and is eligible for an annual incentive bonus as determined by the
Compensation Committee in an amount not to exceed three times his base salary for that fiscal
year or 10% of our EBITDA for the immediately preceding fiscal year. Mr. Hirschhorn entered into
an Option Grant Agreement pursuant to the 2001 Plan, effective July 1, 2008, pursuant to which
Mr. Hirschhorn was granted the option to acquire 6,250,000 shares of our Common Stock at an
exercise price of $0.625. The shares underlying this option vest according to the following
schedule: 1,250,000 vested on July 1, 2009, 1,250,000 on July 1, 2010, 1,250,000 on July 1, 2011,
1,250,000 on July 1, 2012, and the remaining 1,250,000 on July 1, 2013; Mr. Hirschhorn was not
terminated for Misconduct (as that term is defined in the Option Grant Agreement, filed as
Exhibit 10.2 to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 7, 2008), nor has he, to our knowledge,
engaged in Misconduct through the date of this Form 10-K. Either party may terminate Mr.
Hirschhorns employment by providing written notice to the other party. If we terminate the
employment, our notice shall include a statement indicating whether the termination was because
of disability or for cause or without cause. In the event Mr. Hirschhorn is terminated, we are
obligated to pay Mr. Hirschhorn certain lump sum payments, as set forth below in the table
entitled The Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010 Potential Payments Upon Termination or
Change in Control.
The employment agreement with Mr. Hirschhorn also states that Mr. Hirschhorn shall receive a
term life insurance policy with a death benefit of $1.0 million for the first year of the
agreement, $1.5 million for the second and third years of the agreement and $2.0 million for each
of the fourth and fifth years of the agreement. The premiums for this policy are to be paid by us
as long as Mr. Hirschhorn remains employed by us pursuant to the Agreement. We are not the
beneficiary of the policy. The life insurance policy has not been purchased at this time, and in
the event that Mr. Hirschhorn passes away, we may be liable to his estate in an amount to be
determined, which may be up to $2.0 million.

(2) THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR A
CHANGE IN CONTROL
The following tables show the estimated amount of potential payments, as well as estimated
value of continuing benefits, assuming the executive officers employment terminated effective
September 30, 2010, and based on compensation and benefit levels in effect on September 30, 2010.
Due to the numerous factors involved in estimating these amounts, the actual benefits and amounts
payable can only be determined at the time of an executive officers termination.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
|
Since we are not listed on a national securities exchange, we have decided to use the
independence standards of the NYSE Amex (formerly known as the American Stock Exchange or AMEX).
We believe that the Board of Directors would determine that Richardson E. Sells, Robert N.
Schwartz and William Houlihan would be independent directors under the rules of the NYSE Amex
if we were listed on the NYSE Amex and asked to make such a determination.
Advisory Board
On August 22, 2005, we announced the creation of an Advisory Board with seven initial
members. We issued warrants to purchase up to 900,000 shares of Common Stock to Advisory Board
members as compensation for their service. On November 9, 2005, we delivered 727,500 of such
warrants to our seven initial Advisory Board members, with an effective issuance date of August
2, 2005. All such warrants were issued with Black-Scholes assumptions of 99% volatility, $0.35
share price, risk-free interest rates of 4.1% and an exercise price of $0.35. The warrants become
one-third vested upon issuance and vest an additional third after each calendar year. The shares
underlying these warrants became fully vested in August 2007. In December 2006, our Board of
Directors approved the issuance of a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of our Common Stock at an
exercise price of $0.45 per share to Steven Spector, upon his addition as a member to the
Advisory Board. The shares underlying the warrant issued to Mr. Spector became fully vested on
December 12, 2008 and are currently in the process of being exercised. On September 11, 2007, our
Board of Directors approved the issuance of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 350,000 shares
of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share to six new members of our Advisory
Board. The shares underlying these warrants become fully vested on September 13, 2009. 125,000 of
these warrants expired and 225,000 are in the process of being exercised On February 15, 2008,
our Board of Directors approved the issuance of a warrant to purchase a total of 714,285 shares
of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share to Brian Potiker, in consideration
for his continued service as a member of our Advisory Board. The shares underlying the warrant
issued to Mr. Potiker became fully vested on October 30, 2008 and expired on October 30, 2009.
In March 2009, in consideration for their strategic advice and assistance, Messrs. Jay
Beaghan, Rod Rivera, I. Bobby Majumder and Dr. Harley Liker, as members of our Advisory Board,
were issued Advisory Board warrants to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $0.625 per share. These warrants will expire on March 16, 2012 and were
issued in the following individual amounts: (i) 25,000 warrants to Mr. Beaghan; (ii) 25,000
warrants to Mr. Rivera; (iii) 25,000 warrants to Mr. Majumder and (iv) 50,000 warrants to Dr.
Liker. One-third of the warrants vested immediately, one-third vest on March 16, 2010 and
one-third vest on March 16, 2011. These warrants expire on March 16, 2012. As of September 30,
2010 all of these warrants remain outstanding.
In June 2009, we issued warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock to a member of
the newly created Medical Advisory Board. These warrants were issued an exercise price of $0.625.
One-third of the warrants vested immediately upon issuance on June 10, 2009 and the remaining
two-thirds vest on June 10, 2010. These warrants expire on June 10, 2012. As of September 30,
2010 all of these warrants remain outstanding.

Advance to Affiliated Entity
On April 28, 2006, we entered into an agreement with CSA II, LLC, a Cayman Islands company
controlled by Dennis M. Smith, one of our directors at that time. Under the terms of this
agreement, we advanced $333,333 to CSA II, LLC to finance the purchase of securities issued by
Cross Shore Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation, pursuant to a private placement of
$112,000,008 of securities completed on April 24, 2006. The securities were listed on the
Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange (the
AIM
) and started
trading on April 28, 2006 and ceased trading on the AIM on September 4, 2009. In addition, for
consideration of $239.38, we purchased warrants to purchase 239,375 membership units of CSA II,
LLC, constituting 22.5% of the total issued limited liability company interests outstanding on a
fully diluted basis upon payment of the exercise price equal to $0.001 per unit. On May 24, 2006,
we received a partial repayment of this advance in the amount of $60,654. In addition, on June
12, 2006, we were reimbursed $75,000, representing expenses associated with this advance. As of
September 30, 2009 we have written the remaining amounts due on this advance off as
uncollectible.
Sub-Lease from HSP, Inc.
We are subleasing office space located at 433 N. Camden, Suite 810, Beverly Hills,
California 90210 from HSP, Inc. which is a related entity to SMP, an affiliate of ours. The
sub-lease is for a term of 5 years at a monthly rental of $4,800 per month, subject to adjustment
downward based on other subtenants occupying space at the same location.
Repurchase of 49% Interest in RHA
Beginning November 18, 2008, RHA began operating under the trade name Southern Plains
Medical Group. On December 11, 2008, through our subsidiary RHA, we purchased the remaining 49%
issued and outstanding membership units of RHA not owned by us from Carol Schuster, an individual
residing in Oklahoma and holder of approximately forty-two percent (42%) of our Common Stock. RHA
repurchased the remainder of its issued and outstanding membership units for $1,800,000 through a
series of cash payments and the issuance of a promissory note. We serve as guarantor for those
payment obligations.
Exercise of Warrants

Year Ended September 30, 2009 are compatible with maintaining the independence of the auditors.

auditors at its quarterly meetings.
