NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2016

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

1. Basis of Presentation, Principles of Consolidation, and Use of Estimates

Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Alliance HealthCare Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “Alliance”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of all subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company evaluates participating rights in its assessment of control in determining consolidation of joint venture partners. The Company records noncontrolling interest related to its consolidated subsidiaries that are not wholly owned. Investments in non-consolidated investees over which it exercises significant influence but does not control are accounted for under the equity method.

Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Critical Accounting Policies

Information with respect to the Company’s critical accounting policies which management believes could have the most significant effect on the Company’s reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the 2015 Form 10-K/A. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 in the Company’s critical accounting policies from those disclosed in Item 7 of the 2015 Form 10-K/A.

 

 

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” — to clarify and converge the revenue recognition principles under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards and to develop guidance that would streamline and enhance revenue recognition requirements while also providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry specific guidance. Key provisions of the ASU involve a 5-step model specific to recognizing revenue derived from customer contracts. In addition, ASU 2014-09 provides implementation guidance on several other important topics, including the accounting for certain revenue-related costs. The Company is currently assessing the impacts this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures as well as the transition method it will use to adopt the guidance. The Company is considering the impacts of the new guidance on its ability to recognize revenue for certain contracts. In addition, the Company will be required to capitalize costs to acquire new contracts, whereas currently, the Company expenses those costs as incurred. In August 2015, the FASB issued an amendment to provide a one year deferral of the effective date to annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, as well as an option to early adopt the standard for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. The Company does not plan to early adopt the standard.

Going Concern In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)”. Under U.S. GAAP, a going concern is presumed unless and until an entity’s liquidation becomes imminent. When an entity’s liquidation becomes imminent, financial statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 205-30, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Liquidation Basis of Accounting.” However, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, even if liquidation is not imminent. In those situations, financial statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to determine whether to disclose information about relevant conditions and events. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2014-15 may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Cost” that changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-03 requires entities to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct reduction to the related debt liability rather than as a deferred cost (i.e., an asset) as required by current guidance. In August 2015, the FASB issued clarifying authoritative guidance for debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line-of-credit arrangements. The guidance states that an entity should defer and present these debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. ASU 2015-03 does not change the recognition or measurement of debt issuance costs and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The guidance is required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $6,594 in deferred financing costs, net that was reclassified to offset long-term debt, net of current portion. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, “Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes,” which will require entities to present deferred tax assets (“DTAs”) and deferred tax liabilities (“DTLs”) as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. The ASU simplifies the current guidance, which requires entities to separately present DTAs and DTLs as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 is effective for publicly traded business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt this guidance and applied it retrospectively to periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $6,496 in DTAs that was reclassified to long-term DTLs. The adoption of ASU No. 2015-17 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The ASU supersedes the current guidance. The primary difference between current guidance and ASU 2015-02 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. ASU 2016-02 also requires an entity to separate the lease components from the nonlease components (for example, maintenance services or other activities that transfer a good or service to the customer) in a contract. Only the lease components must be accounted for in accordance with this guidance. ASU 2016-02 is effective for publicly traded business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Share-Based Payments In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718),” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic traded entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance, which is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, also contains two practical expedients under which nonpublic entities can use the simplified method to estimate the expected term of an award and make a one-time election to switch from fair value measurement to intrinsic value measurement for liability-classified awards. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, that the adoption of ASU 2016-09 may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

(“Thai Hot”) agreed to purchase approximately 5,537,945 shares of Company common stock from funds managed by Oaktree Capital Management, L.P. (“Oaktree”) and MTS Health Investors, LLC (“MTS”), and Larry C. Buckelew (together, the “Selling Stockholders”) for approximately $102.5 million or $18.50 per share (the “Thai Hot Transaction”). In connection with the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot and the Selling Stockholders agreed to bear a specified portion of the following Company expenses related to the Thai Hot Transaction: (i) 100% of the fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the amendment or waiver of its credit agreement, and (ii) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Thai Hot Transaction in excess of $1 million. In addition, subject to the approval of the Board or an authorized special committee of the Board, Thai Hot agreed to fund a new management incentive arrangement which involves the issuance of $1.5 million in cash-based awards to the Company’s management. The expenses associated with the cash-based awards will be recognized by the Company over the required service period of the awards. The Company accounted for reimbursements received prior to the Thai Hot Transaction close from the Selling Stockholders of $15,343 as capital contributions, and reimbursements received subsequent to the Thai Hot Transaction close from Thai Hot of $13,500 as capital contributions.

The Thai Hot Transaction closed on March 29, 2016.  As a result of the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot, through a wholly owned subsidiary, owns an aggregate of approximately 51.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.  The Company has not agreed to pay any management fees to Thai Hot for any financial advisory services to the Company.

The values assigned to the various assets and liabilities acquired in this transaction are preliminary and may be subject to adjustment as the calculation of their respective fair values could be subject to change.

Alliance-HNI, LLC and Subsidiaries

On August 1, 2015, the Company obtained through its Radiology Division an additional 15.5% interest in its previously non-consolidated investment, Alliance-HNI, LLC (“AHNI”) through a step acquisition. Prior to August 1, 2015, the Company held a noncontrolling interest in AHNI, pursuant to its acquisition of Medical Consultants Imaging, Co. (“MCIC”), which held a 50% interest in a joint venture that was subsequently renamed AHNI.

Prior to the step acquisition on August 1, 2015, AHNI had three subsidiaries: Alliance-HNI Leasing Co. (“AHNIL”), Alliance-HNV PET/CT Services, LLC (“AHNVPS”), and Alliance-HNV PET/CT Leasing, LLC (“AHNVPL”). AHNI held a 98% interest in AHNIL, which AHNI consolidated, a 53.4% interest in AHNVPS, and effectively, a 53.3% interest in AHNVPL through its ownership in AHNVPS, both of which AHNI did not consolidate. In addition to the Company's original 50% investment in AHNI, it also had a 46.6% direct interest in AHNVPS prior to the step acquisition and, accordingly, the Company has historically consolidated AHNVPS and AHNVPL.

On August 1, 2015, the Company contributed its 46.6% interest in HNVPS and its rights to certain assets to AHNI in exchange for an additional 15.5% interest in AHNI. After the transaction the Company holds a 65.5% interest in AHNI which, in turn, holds all of the outstanding interest in AHNVPS. As a result of gaining a controlling interest in AHNI, the Company began consolidating AHNI effective August 1, 2015.

Pursuant to ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” the transaction is considered a step acquisition and the Company was required to remeasure its previously held equity interest in AHNI at its acquisition-date fair value and recognize any resulting gain or loss. AHNVPS assets that the Company was in control of before and after the acquisition were maintained at their carrying amounts immediately before the acquisition date and no gain or loss or resulting goodwill was recognized on these assets.

The fair value of the consideration transferred was based on the net book value of the assets transferred by the Company to AHNI at the acquisition date because the Company had control of those assets before and after the transaction. The Company recorded goodwill of $2,988, which largely represents intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $13,700. The intangible assets consist primarily of physician referral networks, trademarks, and CONs, a portion of which are being amortized over 15 years.

The values assigned to the various assets and liabilities acquired in this transaction are preliminary and may be subject to adjustment as the calculation of their respective fair values could be subject to change.

The Pain Center of Arizona

On February 17, 2015, the Company purchased approximately a 59% membership interest in The Pain Center of Arizona (“TPC”), a comprehensive full-time pain management medical practice with 12 locations within the state of Arizona. The acquisition took place in two stages: a purchase of a 60% membership interest in TPC by the Company, and a 50% membership interest in Medical Practice Innovations, Inc. (“MPI”), followed by a transfer of MPI assets to TPC. The MPI transaction diluted the ownership interests of TPC, with the Company retaining approximately 59% membership interest in TPC. The purchase price consisted of $24,087 in cash, net of $234 cash acquired, and net of extinguishment of $3,071 of related-party notes receivable. The Company financed this acquisition using the revolving line of credit.

As a result of this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $22,566, which largely represents intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition, such as prominent leadership and the solid record of patient care programs that set national standards for quality coordinated care in pain management. In addition, the Company recorded intangible assets of $24,600, of which $13,500 was assigned to physician referral network and $11,100 was assigned to trademarks, which are being amortized over 20 years. The Company recorded the intangible assets at fair value at the acquisition date, which was estimated using the income approach. A portion of the recorded goodwill and intangible assets is being amortized over 15 years for tax purposes. The fair value of noncontrolling interest related to this transaction was estimated to be $20,598 as of the acquisition date using the implied fair value based on the Company's ownership percentage. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 included $7,961 and $15,793 of net revenue, respectively, and $417 and $1,056 of net loss, respectively, generated by TPC. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 included $8,167 and $12,023 of net revenue, respectively, and $20 and $291 of net income, respectively, generated by TPC.

The agreement includes contingent consideration arrangements, which are based on performance of the 12-month period following the transaction date. The fair value of these contingent consideration arrangements of $960 at June 30, 2016, of which $150 remained in other accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, was calculated using achieved performance estimates.

Pro Forma Impact of Acquisitions

The following table provides unaudited pro forma revenues and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2015. The pro forma results were prepared from financial information obtained from the sellers of the businesses, as well as information obtained during the due diligence process associated with the acquisitions. The unaudited pro forma results reflect certain adjustments related to the acquisitions, such as increased depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the stepped-up basis to fair value of assets acquired and adjustments to reflect the Company’s borrowing and tax rates. The pro forma operating results do not include any anticipated synergies related to combining the businesses. Accordingly, such pro forma operating results were prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisitions been made as of January 1, 2015 or of results that may occur in the future.

4. Share-Based Payment

The Company has adopted ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation,” and has elected to follow the alternative transition method as described in ASC 718 for computing its beginning additional paid-in capital pool. In addition, the Company treats the tax deductions from stock options as being realized when they reduce taxes payable in accordance with the principles and timing under the relevant tax law.

Stock Option Plans and Awards

In November 1999, the Company adopted an employee stock option plan (as amended and restated, the “1999 Equity Plan”) pursuant to which options and awards with respect to a total of 3,005,000 shares have become available for grant. As of June 30, 2016, a total of 1,091,795 shares remained available for grant under the 1999 Equity Plan. Options are granted with exercise prices equal to the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. All options have 10-year terms. Options granted after January 1, 2008 were typically time based and vest in equal tranches over three or four years. During the first quarter of 2016, 71,057 options were accelerated due to a change in control in connection with the closing of the Thai Hot Transaction. There were no options in which vesting was accelerated during 2015.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the compensation expense associated with share-based payment awards. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the assumptions presented in the table below. In addition, forfeitures are estimated when recognizing compensation expense and the estimate of forfeitures will be adjusted over the requisite service period to the extent that actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.

The following weighted average assumptions were used in the estimated grant date fair value calculations for stock option awards:

The intrinsic value of stock options exercised is the amount by which the market price of the stock on the date of exercise exceeded the market price of the stock on the date of grant.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded share-based payment related to stock options of $174 and $257, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded share-based payment related to stock options of $1,406 and $475, respectively. At June 30, 2016, the total unrecognized fair value share-based payment related to unvested stock options granted to employees was $992, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.1 years. The valuation model applied in this calculation utilizes highly subjective assumptions that could potentially change over time, including the expected forfeiture rate and performance targets. Therefore, the amount of unrecognized share-based payment noted above does not necessarily represent the value that will ultimately be realized by the Company in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Stock Awards

The 1999 Equity Plan, as amended and restated, permits the award of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock bonus awards and performance-based stock awards (collectively referred to as “stock awards”). During the six months ended June 30, 2016, 85,206 restricted stock units were granted to employees. There were no stock awards granted to employees during the six months ended June 30, 2015. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded share-based payment related to stock awards of $205 and $172, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded share-based payment related to stock awards of $837 and $344, respectively.

In the third quarter of 2014, 25,000 restricted stock units (“RSU”) were granted to executive management, which vest based upon achieving certain market performance conditions. Specifically, the Company's closing stock price per common share must equal or exceed a value of $40.00 per share for 10 consecutive days between the dates of January 1, 2015 and April 21, 2017. If these conditions are not achieved before April 21, 2017, these RSUs will expire. In accordance with ASC 718, expense related to restricted stock units that vest based on achieving a market condition should not be recognized until the derived vesting period has been met, and at such time the derived vesting period becomes the requisite service period. Since the market condition has not been met, and is currently not probable of being met based on the current market condition, the Company has not recognized any expense related to these RSUs. These RSUs contain provisions that vesting may be accelerated under a change in control of the Company. The RSU Award provided that in the event of a change in control, the unvested portion of the award will convert into the right to receive a cash amount (the “Cash Right”) equal to the number of unvested restricted stock units multiplied by the per share consideration received by the holders of the Company’s Common Stock in the change in control and the Cash Right shall vest on the six month anniversary of the consummation of the change in control subject to the executive’s continued service through such date; provided, that in the event the executive is terminated without “cause” or for “good reason” (each as defined in the executive’s Employment Agreement) the Cash Right shall vest in full on the date of such termination (the “Cash Right Conversion”). The Thai Hot Transaction constituted a change in control under the terms of the RSU Award agreement and for purposes of the Cash Right Conversion, the Special Committee approved that the per share consideration received by the holders of the Company’s Common Stock upon the consummation of the Thai Hot Transaction was $18.50 per share. The monetary value of the Cash Right of $463 is included as accrued compensation and related expenses on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For additional information on the Thai Hot Transaction, see Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

At June 30, 2016, unrecognized fair value share-based payments related to stock awards granted to employees was $426, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.7 years. At June 30, 2015, there were no unrecognized fair value share-based payments related to stock awards granted to employees.

 

 

5. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

Cash and cash equivalents The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity or variable rates of these instruments.

Debt The carrying amounts of variable-rate borrowings at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 approximate fair value estimates based on current market rates and credit spreads for similar debt instruments.

Contingent consideration The carrying amounts of contingent consideration related to acquisitions at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 approximate fair value using probability-adjusted or achieved performance estimates.

Mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest The carrying amount of mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the PRC acquisition at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 approximates fair value using the estimated implied fair value based on the Company's ownership percentage. Further discussion of the mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Derivative instruments Fair value of derivative instruments was determined based on the income approach and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount and approximates the net gains and losses that would have been realized if the contracts had been settled at each period-end.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 requires disclosure that establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1

Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs, including identical securities in inactive markets or similar securities in active markets, which are corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3

Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The Company’s fixed and variable-rate debt represent level 2 liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. None of the Company’s instruments has transferred from one level to another.

The Company’s derivative instruments are primarily pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps and caps based on the LIBOR swap rate. The Company has elected to use the income approach to value these derivatives, using observable Level 2 market expectations at measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact. Level 2 inputs for interest rate swap and cap valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (specifically futures contracts on LIBOR for the first two years) and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates at commonly quoted intervals and implied volatilities for options). ASC 820 states that the fair value measurement of an asset or liability must reflect the nonperformance risk of the entity and the counterparty. Therefore, the impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness and the Company’s creditworthiness has also been factored into the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments. For additional information see Note 9 - Derivatives of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In 2016, the Company intends to perform its annual impairment test in the fourth quarter for goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets, absent other events occurring or changes in circumstances that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company compares the fair value of its reporting units to its carrying amount to determine if there is potential impairment. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined by an income approach and a market capitalization approach. Significant management judgment is required in the forecasts of future operating results that are used in the income approach. The estimates that the Company has used are consistent with the plans and estimates that it uses to manage its business. The Company bases its fair value estimates on forecasted revenue and operating costs which include a number of factors including, but not limited to, securing new customers, retention of existing customers, growth in radiology, oncology and interventional revenues and the impact of continued cost savings initiatives. However, it is possible that plans and estimates may change. Based on financial information as of June 30, 2016, impairment testing was not required during the three months then ended. Although the Company concluded that no impairment was present in its intangible assets in the six months of 2016, the Company intends to test its goodwill and other intangibles assets for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2016, as described above.

The Company uses the estimated useful life to amortize customer contracts, which is a weighted-average of 15 years. Other intangible assets subject to amortization are estimated to have a weighted-average useful life of 11 years. Amortization expense for intangible assets subject to amortization was $2,494 and $2,495 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $4,937 and $4,530 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The intangible assets not subject to amortization represent certificates of need and regulatory authority rights that have indefinite useful lives.

Credit Facility and Senior Secured Term Loan Refinancing

On June 3, 2013, the Company replaced its existing credit facility with a new senior secured credit agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement consists of (i) a $340,000, six-year term loan facility, (ii) a $50,000, five-year revolving loan facility, including a $20,000 sublimit for letters of credit, (iii) uncommitted incremental loan facilities of $100,000 of revolving or term loans, plus an additional amount if the Company’s pro forma leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.25, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of specified conditions, and (iv) an $80,000 delayed draw term loan facility, which was required to be drawn within thirty days of June 3, 2013 and used for the redemption of the Company's $190,000 of 8% Senior Notes (“Notes”).

On July 3, 2013 the delayed draw term loan facility was utilized, of which the proceeds were used to redeem $80,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company's outstanding Notes that were originally issued in December 2009 as a cash tender offer for any and all of its outstanding 7.25% Notes originally issued in December of 2004. The delayed draw term loan facility converted into, and matched the terms of, the new $340,000 term loan facility.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at the Company's option, either the LIBOR or the base rate (which is the highest of the administrative agent’s prime rate, one-half of 1.00% in excess of the overnight federal funds rate, and 1.00% in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate), plus, in each case, an applicable margin. With respect to the term loan facilities, the applicable margin for LIBOR loans is 3.25% per annum, and with respect to the revolving loan facilities, the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 3.00% to 3.25% per annum, in each case, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans under the term loan facilities is 2.25% per annum and under the revolving loan facility ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 2.00% to 2.25% per annum. Prior to the refinancing of the term loan facilities, the applicable margin for base rate loans was 4.25% per annum and the applicable margin for revolving loans was 5.25% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 2.00%. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee which ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 0.38% to 0.50% per annum on the undrawn portion available under the revolving loan facility and variable per annum fees with respect to outstanding letters of credit.

During the first five and one-half years after the closing date, and including the full amount of the delayed draw term loan facility, the Company is required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loans in the amount of $1,050. The Company is also required to make mandatory prepayments of term loans under the Credit Agreement, subject to specified exceptions, from excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and with the proceeds of asset sales, debt issuances and specified other events.

Obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all the Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Agreement and the guarantees are secured by a lien on substantially all tangible and intangible property, and by a pledge of all of the shares of stock and limited liability company interests of the Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, of which the Company now owns or later acquires more than a 50% interest, subject to limited exceptions.

In addition to other covenants, the Credit Agreement places limits on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to declare dividends or redeem or repurchase capital stock, prepay, redeem or purchase debt, incur liens and engage in sale-leaseback transactions, make loans and investments, incur additional indebtedness, amend or otherwise alter debt and other material agreements, engage in mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, transact with affiliates and alter the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement also contains a leverage ratio covenant requiring the Company to maintain a maximum ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA that ranges from 4.95 to 1.00 to 4.30 to 1.00. At June 30, 2016, the Credit Agreement requires a maximum leverage ratio of not more than 4.55 to 1.00. Failure to comply with the covenants in the Credit Agreement could permit the lenders under the Credit Agreement to declare all amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement, together with accrued interest and fees, to be immediately due and payable, and to terminate all commitments under the Credit Agreement.

Amendments to the Credit Agreement

On October 11, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “First Amendment”). Pursuant to the First Amendment, the Company raised $70,000 in incremental term loan commitments to repurchase the remaining Notes. On December 2, 2013, the Company borrowed $70,000 of incremental term loans and, with such proceeds plus borrowings under its revolving line of credit and cash on hand, completed the redemption of all its outstanding Notes on December 4, 2013. As a result, the revolving loan facility’s maturity date remained on June 3, 2018 and the term loan maturity date remained on June 3, 2019.  

On June 19, 2015, the Company entered into a second amendment to the Credit Agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Second Amendment”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Company raised the remaining $30,000 in incremental term loan commitments. The funds were used to repay all outstanding borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility, pay fees and expenses related to the Second Amendment, and general corporate purposes. The Second Amendment did not impact the borrowing capacity on the revolving credit facility, which remains at $50,000.

The incremental term loan under the Second Amendment was funded at 99.5% of principal amount and will mature on the same date as the existing term loan under the Company’s credit agreement, which is June 3, 2019. Upon funding, the incremental term loans were converted to match all the terms of existing term loans. Interest on the incremental term loan is calculated, at the Company’s option, at a base rate plus a 2.25% margin or LIBOR plus a 3.25% margin, subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor.

The quarterly amortization payments of all term loans under the credit facility for the first five and one-half years was initially established at $1,050. The quarterly amortization payment was increased to $1,300 in June 2015, pursuant to the Second Amendment.

On March 29, 2016, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Third Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Amendment, (i) the defined term “Investors” was amended to include THAIHOT Investment Company Limited, so that the sale by the Selling Stockholders would not be deemed to constitute a change of control and (ii) the soft call provision was reinstated to commence on the date the Third Amendment is effective and end the date that is twelve months after such commencement.

Under the soft call provision, if the Company makes a voluntary prepayment of any Term Loan or prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term Loan, and such action results in a reduction in the effective interest cost or weighted average yield of the Term Loan, then the Company shall pay to the administrative agent, for the ratable account of each of the lenders holding Term Loans a prepayment premium equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced.

In connection with the Third Amendment, the Company paid fees totaling $25.0 million, which were capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis as interest expense over the term of the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement was 4.15 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had $29.1 million of available borrowings under the revolving line of credit, net of $16.5 million outstanding on the revolving line of credit and $4.4 million outstanding in letters of credit.

As a result of the step acquisition on August 1, 2015, and subsequent consolidation of AHNI, the Company had notes payable to PNC Equipment Finance, LLC (“PNC”) totaling $6,746 at June 30, 2016. The notes payable are due in various installments through December 2020 at interest rates between 1.83% and 1.95% per annum. The notes are also collateralized by equipment and contain restrictive covenants. AHNI also has a $4,700 line of credit with PNC, with interest calculated based on LIBOR plus 1.4%. As of June 30, 2016, there was $1,389 amount outstanding on the line of credit.

9. Derivatives

The Company accounts for derivative instruments and hedging activities in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” Management generally designates derivatives in a hedge relationship with the identified exposure on the date the Company enters into a derivative contract, as disclosed below. The Company has only executed derivative instruments that are economic hedges of exposures that can qualify in hedge relationships under ASC 815. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. In this documentation, the Company specifically identifies the firm commitment or forecasted transaction that has been designated as a hedged item and states how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the risks related to the hedged item. The Company formally assesses effectiveness of its hedging relationships, both at the hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, then measures and records ineffectiveness. The Company would discontinue hedge accounting prospectively (i) if it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting change in the cash flows of a hedged item, (ii) when the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, (iii) because it is probable that the forecasted transaction will not occur, or (iv) if management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedge instrument is no longer appropriate. The Company’s derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at their fair value. For additional information refer to Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. For derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges, any effective unrealized gains or losses on fair value are included in comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, and any ineffective gains or losses are recognized in income immediately. Amounts recorded in comprehensive income (loss) are reclassified to earnings when the hedged item impacts earnings.

Cash Flow Hedges

Interest Rate Cash Flow Hedges

The Company has entered into multiple interest rate swap and cap agreements to hedge the future cash interest payments on portions of its variable rate bank debt. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had interest rate swap and cap agreements to hedge approximately $263,520 and $257,057 of its variable rate bank debt, respectively, or 46.1% and 47.3% of total debt, respectively. Over the next twelve months, the Company expects to reclassify $563 from unrealized gain (loss) on hedging transactions, net of taxes to interest expense and other, net.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in connection with equipment financing. The swap, which matures in December 2017, had a notional amount of $1,658 as of June 30, 2016. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company receives one-month LIBOR plus 2.50% and pays a fixed rate of 3.75%. The net effect of the hedge is to convert interest expense to a fixed rate of 3.75%, as the underlying debt incurred interest based on one-month LIBOR plus 2.50%.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement in connection with equipment financing. The swap, which matures in April 2018, had a notional amount of $1,612 as of June 30, 2016. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company receives one-month LIBOR plus 2.00% and pays a fixed rate of 2.87%.

The AHNI swaps mature on various dates ranging from April 2017 through April 2020 and had notional amounts totaling $2,631 as of June 30, 2016. Under the terms of these arrangements, the Company receives one-month LIBOR and pays fixed rates ranging from 0.75% to 1.68%. The changes in fair market value of the AHNI Swaps are recorded in interest expense and other, net, as incurred.

In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements in connection with equipment financing. The swaps mature in December 2020 and in December 2021 and had notional amounts totaling $6,445 as of June 30, 2016. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company receives one-month LIBOR and one-month LIBOR plus 2.00% and pays fixed rates of 1.37% and 3.69%, respectively. The net effect of these hedges is to convert interest expense to fixed rates of 1.37% and 3.69%, as the underlying debt incurred interest based on one-month LIBOR and one-month LIBOR plus 2.00%, respectively.

10. Income Taxes

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded income tax expense of $2.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively, or 47.4% and 50.1%, respectively, of the Company’s pretax income. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded income tax (benefit) expense of $(1,366) and $206, respectively, or 41.0% and (5,275.0)%, respectively, of the Company’s pretax income. The provision for income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, which is applied to current year to date pre-tax income. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is recorded. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 differed from the federal statutory rate principally as a result of state income taxes and permanent non-deductible tax items, including share-based payments, unrecognized tax benefits and other permanent differences.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company has provided a liability for $263 of unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. The tax-effected amount that would reduce the Company’s effective income tax rate if recognized is $221. As of December 31, 2015, the Company has provided a liability for $229 of unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters. The tax-effected amount that would reduce the Company’s effective income tax rate if recognized is $192.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company had approximately $13 and $16, respectively, in accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company is subject to United States federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state tax jurisdictions. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended December 31, 2012 through 2015. The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ state income tax returns are open to audit under the applicable statutes of limitations for the years ended December 31, 2011 through 2015. The Company does not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

 

 

11. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed utilizing the two-class method and is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented, excluding unvested restricted stock units which do not contain nonforfeitable rights to dividend and dividend equivalents.

Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods utilizing the two-class method for stock options, unvested restricted stock and unvested restricted stock units. Potentially dilutive securities are not considered in the calculation of net loss per share as their impact would be anti-dilutive.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

The Company has maintenance contracts with its equipment vendors for substantially all of its radiology and oncology equipment. The contracts range from one to seven years from inception and extend through the year 2022, but may be canceled by the Company under certain circumstances. The Company's total contract payments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were $9,978 and $20,262, respectively, and $9,893 and $19,780, respectively. At June 30, 2016, the Company had binding equipment purchase commitments totaling $17,745.

Guarantees and Indemnities

The Company has applied the disclosure provisions of ASC 460, “Guarantees,” to its agreements that contain guarantee or indemnification clauses. These disclosure provisions expand those required by ASC 440, “Commitments,” and ASC 450, “Contingencies,” by requiring a guarantor to disclose certain types of guarantees, even if the likelihood of requiring the guarantor's performance is remote.

In the normal course of business, the Company has made certain guarantees and indemnities, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain transactions. The Company indemnifies other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company has agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from certain events as defined within the particular contract, which may include, for example, litigation or claims arising from a breach of representations or covenants. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its executive officers and directors and the Company's bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations. Under these arrangements, the Company is obligated to indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, its current or former officers and directors for various amounts incurred with respect to actions, suits or proceedings in which they were made, or threatened to be made, a party as a result of acting as an officer or director.

ALLIANCE HEALTHCARE SERVICES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS––(Continued)

(Unaudited)

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made related to these indemnifications have been immaterial. At June 30, 2016, the Company has determined that no liability is necessary related to these guarantees and indemnities.

Litigation

In November 2015, the Company was served with a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio by Todd S. Elwert, DC, Inc.  The Complaint alleges violations of the Junk Fax Prevention Act for allegedly sending an unsolicited advertisement to Plaintiff which promoted commercial availability and/or quality of the Company’s services. The Plaintiff further alleges that it is part of a class of similarly situated chiropractors who received the blast fax, and as such, requested class certification.  The Company filed its response on December 17, 2015 and is currently in the discovery phase of the lawsuit.

Other Matters

The Company from time to time is involved in routine litigation and regulatory matters incidental to the conduct of its business. The Company believes that resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

 

13. Related-Party Transactions

Ownership Structure

On April 16, 2007, Oaktree and MTS purchased 4,900,301 shares of the Company’s common stock. Upon completion of the transaction, Oaktree and MTS owned in the aggregate approximately 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. At December 31, 2015, Oaktree and MTS owned in the aggregate approximately 51% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. The Company has not paid management fees to Oaktree and MTS for their financial advisory services to the Company.

On September 16, 2015, Fujian Thai Hot Investment Co., Ltd. (“Thai Hot”) agreed to purchase approximately 5,537,945 shares of Company common stock from funds managed by the Selling Stockholders for approximately $102.5 million or $18.50 per share. In connection with the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot and the Selling Stockholders agreed to bear a specified portion of the following Company expenses related to the Thai Hot Transaction: (i) 100% of the fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the amendment or waiver of its credit agreement, and (ii) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Thai Hot Transaction in excess of $1 million. In addition, subject to the approval of the Board or an authorized special committee of the Board, Thai Hot agreed to fund a new management incentive arrangement which involves the issuance of $1.5 million in cash-based awards to the Company’s management. The expenses associated with the cash-based awards will be recognized by the Company over the required service period of the awards. The Company accounted for reimbursements received prior to the Thai Hot Transaction close from the Selling Stockholders of $15,343 as capital contributions and reimbursements received subsequent to the Thai Hot Transaction close from Thai Hot of $13,500 as capital contributions. In addition, the Selling Stockholders provided $1.5 million related to the potential tax impact of the credit amendment costs incurred by the Company, measured after the close of the Thai Hot Transaction. This amount was subsequently returned to the Selling Stockholders. 

The Thai Hot Transaction closed on March 29, 2016.  As a result of the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot, through its wholly owned subsidiary, owns an aggregate of approximately 51.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.  The Company has not agreed to pay any management fees to Thai Hot for any financial advisory services to the Company.

Management Agreements

The Company had direct ownership in two unconsolidated investees at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Company obtained an additional 15.5% interest in one of its previously unconsolidated investees, AHNI, on August 1, 2015, thereby increasing its ownership position in AHNI to 65.5% and giving it a controlling interest.

Revenues from management agreements with unconsolidated equity investees were $352 and $2,209 during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $705 and $4,587 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Company provides services as part of its ongoing operations for and on behalf of the unconsolidated equity investees, which are included in the management agreement revenue, and reimburse the Company for the actual amount of the expenses incurred. The Company records the expenses as cost of revenues and the reimbursement as revenue in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the amounts of the revenues and expenses were $233 and $1,782, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the amounts of the revenues and expenses were $485 and $3,729, respectively.

 

 

14. Investments in Unconsolidated Investees

The Company has direct ownership in two unconsolidated investees at June 30, 2016. The Company owns 15% and 50% of these investees, respectively, and provides management services under agreements with these investees, expiring at various dates through 2025. Both of these investees are accounted for under the equity method because the Company does not exercise control over the operations of these investees.

On August 1, 2015, the Company obtained an additional 15.5% interest in a previously unconsolidated investee, AHNI, thereby increasing its ownership position to 65.5% and giving it a controlling interest. Prior to August 1, 2015, the Company's interest in AHNI was deemed a noncontrolling interest and, as such, the Company accounted for the investment using the equity method.

Set forth below are certain operating results for the aggregate of the Company’s unconsolidated investees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Operating results for AHNI are included for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015:

16. Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. In accordance with ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” and based on the nature of the financial information that is received by the CODM, the Company operates in three operating segments (Radiology Division, Oncology Division, and Interventional Division) that also qualify as reportable segments under the definition of ASC 280. Prior to 2016, the Company operated in two reportable business segments – Radiology and Oncology Divisions. Effective January 1, 2016, the Interventional Division qualified as an additional reportable business segment. Accordingly, the information contained herein has been revised to reflect this change in presentation. Each of these reportable segments, on a stand-alone basis, provides and makes available their respective medical services in similar settings, and operates within a singular regulatory environment. Further, management assesses the segment operations and each segment’s degree of efficiency and performance based on this structure of financial reporting, and primarily makes operating decisions from these reportable segment results.

The radiology segment is comprised of diagnostic imaging services including MRI, PET/CT and other imaging services. The oncology segment is comprised of radiation oncology services. The interventional operating segment is comprised of therapeutic minimally invasive pain management procedures medical management, laboratory testing, and other services. All intercompany revenues, expenses, payables and receivables are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance. Each segment’s performance is evaluated based on Revenue, Segment Income and Net Income.

The following table summarizes the Company’s revenue by segment:

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Overview

We are a leading national provider of outsourced healthcare services to hospitals and providers. We also operate freestanding outpatient radiology, oncology and interventional clinics, and Ambulatory Surgical Centers (“ASC”) that are not owned by hospitals or providers. Our diagnostic radiology services are delivered through the Radiology Division (Alliance HealthCare Radiology), radiation oncology services through the Oncology Division (Alliance Oncology, LLC), and interventional and pain management services through the Interventional Division (Alliance Interventional). We are the nation’s largest provider of advanced diagnostic mobile radiology services, an industry-leading operator of fixed-site radiology centers, and a leading provider of stereotactic radiosurgery nationwide. As of June 30, 2016, we operated 621 diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy systems, including 112 fixed-site radiology centers across the country, and 34 radiation therapy centers and stereotactic radiosurgery (“SRS”) facilities. With a strategy of partnering with hospitals, health systems and physician practices, we provide quality healthcare services for over 1,000 hospitals and healthcare partners in 45 states where approximately 2,400 Alliance Team Members are committed to providing exceptional patient care and exceeding customer expectations. We were incorporated in the state of Delaware on May 27, 1987.

Service Overview

 

·

Radiology Division: We provide comprehensive radiology service line management and fixed-site radiology center management through our RAD360TM service in our Radiology Division. We also provide mobile and interim medical imaging systems to hospitals, health systems and provider groups. These services normally include the use of our medical imaging systems, technologists to operate the systems, sales and marketing, patient scheduling and pre authorization, billing and payor management, equipment maintenance and upgrades, and overall management of day-to-day shared-service and fixed-site diagnostic imaging operations.

 

·

Oncology Division: We provide a wide range of radiation oncology services for cancer patients covering initial consultation, preparation for treatment, simulation of treatment, radiation oncology delivery, therapy management and follow-up care. Our services include the use of our linear accelerators (“Linac”) and SRS, therapists to operate those systems, sales and marketing, patient scheduling and pre authorization, billing and payor management, equipment maintenance and upgrades and management of day-to-day operations.

 

·

Interventional Division: We provide interventional healthcare through therapeutic minimally invasive pain management procedures, medical management, laboratory testing, and other services. Interventional procedures are performed in either a procedure room or ASC environment, as determined by the treating physician. Interventional therapies are playing a more critical role in the care and treatment pathway for patients, but they are also playing an important role in how care is delivered.

Prior to 2016, we operated in two reportable business segments – Radiology and Oncology Divisions. Effective January 1, 2016, our Interventional Division qualified as an additional reportable business segment in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, the information contained herein has been revised to reflect this change in presentation. We operate in three reportable business segments – Radiology, Oncology and Interventional Divisions. Radiology, Oncology and Interventional Divisions generated 70%, 21% and 9% of our revenue, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, and 70%, 21% and 9% of our revenue, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Radiology, Oncology and Interventional Divisions generated 72%, 21% and 7% of our revenue, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, and 73%, 22% and 5% of our revenue, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2015. For additional information on reportable business segments, see Note 16 – Segment Information of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our clients and partners contract with us to provide radiology, radiation oncology and interventional healthcare services to:

 

·

take advantage of our extensive radiology, radiation oncology and interventional healthcare service lines management experience;

 

·

partner with a leader whose core competency is high-quality, efficient and scalable services in the areas of radiology, interventional healthcare and radiation oncology services;

 

·

avoid capital investment, financial risk and contracting for maintenance associated with the purchase of their own systems;

 

·

provide access to radiology, radiation oncology, interventional healthcare and other services for their patients when the demand for these services does not justify the purchase of dedicated, full-time systems;

 

·

eliminate the need to recruit, train and manage qualified technologists or therapists;

32


 

 

·

make use of our ancillary services; and, 

 

·

gain access to services under our regulatory and licensing approvals when they do not have these approvals.

Thai Hot Transaction

On September 16, 2015, Thai Hot agreed to purchase approximately 5,537,945 shares of Company common stock from funds managed by the Selling Stockholders for approximately $102.5 million or $18.50 per share (the “Thai Hot Transaction”). In connection with the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot and the Selling Stockholders agreed to bear a specified portion of the following Company expenses related to the Thai Hot Transaction: (i) 100% of the fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the amendment or waiver of its credit agreement, and (ii) all reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the Thai Hot Transaction in excess of $1 million.  In addition, subject to the approval of the Board or an authorized special committee of the Board, Thai Hot agreed to fund a new management incentive arrangement which involves the issuance of $1.5 million in cash-based awards to the Company’s management.

The Thai Hot Transaction closed on March 29, 2016.  As a result of the Thai Hot Transaction, Thai Hot, through a wholly owned subsidiary, owns an aggregate of approximately 51.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.  The Company has not agreed to pay any management fees to Thai Hot for any financial advisory services to the Company. For additional information on the Thai Hot Transaction, see Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Factors Affecting our Results of Operations

Pricing

Continued expansion of health maintenance organizations, preferred provider organizations and other managed care organizations have influence over the pricing of our services because these organizations can exert greater control over patients' access to our services and reimbursement rates for accessing those services.

Cost of revenues

The principal components of our cost of revenues include compensation paid to technologists, therapists, drivers and other clinical staff; system maintenance costs; insurance; medical supplies; system transportation; team members’ travel costs; and professional costs related to the delivery of radiation therapy and professional radiology interpretation services. Because a majority of these expenses are fixed, increased revenues as a result of higher scan and treatment volumes per system significantly improves our margins while lower scan and treatment volumes result in lower margins.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

The principal components of selling, general and administrative expenses are sales and marketing costs, corporate overhead costs, provision for doubtful accounts, and share-based payment.

Noncontrolling interest and earnings

We record noncontrolling interest and earnings from unconsolidated investees related to our consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries, respectively. These subsidiaries primarily provide shared-service and fixed-site diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy services.

Third-party payor reimbursement rates and policies

Payments to us by third-party payors depend substantially upon each payor's coverage, coding and reimbursement policies. Third-party payors may impose limits on coverage or reimbursement for diagnostic imaging services, including denying reimbursement for tests that do not follow recommended diagnostic procedures. In addition, we are subject to a variety of billing and coding requirements, including the implementation of the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition (“ICD-10”) on October 1, 2015. The adoption of ICD-10 could create claims processing issues for our clinics or our payors that could result in additional claims submission or payment delays or denials.

33


 

Seasonality

We experience seasonality in the revenues and margins generated for our services. First and fourth quarter revenues are typically lower than those from the second and third quarters. First quarter revenue is affected primarily by fewer calendar days and inclement weather, typically resulting in fewer patients being scanned or treated during the period. Fourth quarter revenues are affected by holiday and client and patient vacation schedules, resulting in fewer scans or treatments during the period. The variability in margins is higher than the variability in revenues due to the fixed nature of our costs. We also experience fluctuations in our revenues and margins due to acquisition activity and general economic conditions, including recession or economic slowdown.

Quarter Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2015

Revenue increased $6.8 million, or 5.7%, to $125.3 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $118.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, mostly due to an increase in interventional revenue of $3.2 million, an increase in MRI revenue of $3.6 million and an increase to oncology revenue of $0.5 million, partially offset by an decrease in PET/CT revenue of $0.5 million. Other revenue remained consistent with second quarter 2015.

35


 

MRI revenue increased $3.6 million in the second quarter of 2016, or 8.0%, compared to the second quarter of 2015. Scan-based MRI revenue increased $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2016, or 7.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2015, to $41.9 million in the second quarter of 2016 from $39.2 million in the second quarter of 2015. The increase in scan-based MRI revenue was primarily due to year-over-year increases in the average number of scan-based systems in service, scans per system per day and total number of scan-based MRI scans, partially offset by a 3.0% decrease in price per scan from $316.84 in second quarter 2015 to $307.39 in the second quarter 2016. The average number of scan-based systems in service increased to 216.5 systems in the second quarter of 2016 from 200.6 systems in the second quarter of 2015. Scans per scan-based system per day increased to 9.36 in the second quarter of 2016 from 8.99 in the second quarter of 2015. Total scan-based MRI scan volume increased 10.4% to 136,251 scans in the second quarter of 2016 from 123,461 scans in the second quarter of 2015. Non scan-based MRI revenue increased $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2016 over the same period in 2015. Included in the revenue totals above are fixed-site imaging center revenues, which decreased $0.6 million, or 2.1%, to $27.5 million in the second quarter of 2016 from $28.1 million in the second quarter of 2015.

PET/CT revenue decreased $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2016, or 1.5%, compared to the second quarter of 2015. This decrease was primarily due to decreased total volume of PET/CT scans of 2.0% from 35,569 scans in second quarter 2015 to 34,863 scans in the second quarter of 2016. As we priced competitively to protect and maintain our market share in the mobile imaging market, the average price per PET/CT scan also decreased from to $890.59 per scan in the second quarter of 2015 to $885.34 per scan in the second quarter of 2016. The average number of PET/CT systems in service increased to 120.5 systems in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 115.1 systems in the second quarter of 2015. Scans per system per day increased to 5.51 in the second quarter of 2016 from 5.38 in the second quarter of 2015.

Oncology revenue increased $0.5 million, or 2.0%, to $25.8 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $25.3 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to a 17.8% increase in revenue per Linac treatment performed in the second quarter of 2016 when compared to the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by a 2.8% decrease in the number of Linac treatments performed during the second quarter of 2016 when compared to the second quarter of 2015. During the second quarter 2016, the number of SRS patients we treated increased by 6.0% when compared to the same prior year quarter.

Interventional revenue increased $3.2 million, or 39.0%, to $11.4 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $8.2 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to our acquisition of PRC in October 2015.  Further discussion of the PRC acquisition is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other revenues remained consistent at $7.2 million for both the second quarter of 2016 and 2015.

Cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $2.5 million, or 3.6%, to $69.9 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $67.5 million in the second quarter of 2015. The increase in cost of revenues is primarily due to a $3.4 million increase over prior year in compensation and related employee expenses, primarily due to salary costs in connection with our new affiliations with TPC, PRC and PCI as well as incremental radiology resources to support volume growth, an increase to rents expense of $0.6 million, or 25.2%, partially offset by a decrease in equipment rental expense of $0.6 million, or 22.4% and a decrease in license, taxes and fees expense of $0.6 million, or 51.1%. All other cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization, remained stable year over year. Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 55.8% in the second quarter of 2016, compared to 56.9% in the second quarter of 2015.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.4 million, or 11.4%, to $23.2 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $20.8 million in the second quarter of 2015. The increase to selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in compensation and related employee expenses of $2.4 million, or 19.2%, as a result of increased headcount due to our acquisitions. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was 18.5% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 17.6% in the second quarter of 2015.

Transaction costs decreased $0.7 million, or 61.3%, to $0.4 million in the second quarter 2016 compared to $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2015. Transaction costs represent expenses incurred in connection with ongoing strategic planning by management.

Shareholder transaction costs of $1.5 million are a direct result of the Thai Hot Transaction, whereby Thai Hot and the Selling Stockholders agreed to bear a specified portion of the transaction costs.  Further discussion of the Thai Hot Transaction is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Severance and related costs increased $0.5 million to $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2015. During the first quarter 2016, an executive officer departed from our Company, leading to higher expenses into the second quarter of 2016.

There were no impairment charges in the second quarter of 2016. During the second quarter of 2015, we implemented a plan to start the process to close a radiation therapy center and, as a result, recorded a non-cash charge to write off $6.7 million of intangible assets not subject to amortization associated with that center in its Oncology Division. 

Depreciation expense increased $1.7 million, or 13.7%, to $13.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $12.1 million in the second quarter of 2015, due to the year over year increase in the number of units in our fleet along with our decision to upgrade units we currently own as an alternative to purchasing new equipment.

Amortization expense remained consistent in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same quarter in 2015.

Interest expense and other, net increased $2.0 million, or 28.5% to $8.9 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily due increased deferred financing costs associated with the amendments to our credit facility, increased borrowings under our senior secured credit agreement and increased equipment debt. We expect interest expense to increase in future periods due to increased deferred financing costs associated with amendments to our credit facility.

Other income, net of expenses was $3.5 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to other expenses, net of income of $0.5 million in the same prior year period. As a result of finalizing TPC’s earnout and remeasuring PCI’s and PRC’s earnouts, we recorded a non-cash gain of $3.0 million during the second quarter of 2016.

Income tax expense was $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to an income tax benefit of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2015. Our effective tax rate was 47.4% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 41.0% in the second quarter of 2015. This rate differed from the federal statutory rate principally as a result of state income taxes and permanent non-deductible tax items, including share-based payments, unrecognized tax benefits, and other permanent differences.

Earnings from unconsolidated investees decreased $0.9 million, or 69.6%, to $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease in earnings from unconsolidated investees is primarily as a result of the consolidation of AHNI, effective August 1, 2015. Further discussion of the AHNI transaction is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest decreased $1.2 million, or 23.9%, to $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease was mostly attributed to decreased year-over-year net income we derived from our joint venture partners.

Net income attributable to Alliance HealthCare Services, Inc. was $2.5 million, or $0.23 per share on a diluted basis, in the second quarter of 2016 compared to net loss of $2.0 million, or $0.18 loss per share, in the second quarter of 2015.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2015

Revenue increased $21.1 million, or 9.3%, to $249.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $227.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, mostly due to an increase in interventional revenue of $11.0 million, and increase in MRI revenue of $8.2 million and an increase to oncology revenue of $2.4 million. PET/CT and other revenues remained consistent with the first half of 2015.

MRI revenue increased $8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, or 9.3%, compared to six months ended June 30, 2015. Scan-based MRI revenue increased $6.6 million in the first half of 2016, or 8.6%, compared to the first half of 2015, to $83.5 million in 2016 from $76.8 million in 2015. The increase in scan-based MRI revenue was primarily due to year-over-year increases in the average number of scan-based systems in service, scans per system per day and total number of scan-based MRI scans, partially offset by a 4.3% decrease in price per scan from $323.53 in 2015 to $309.67 in 2016. The average number of scan-based systems in service increased to 217.5 systems for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from 201.7 systems for the same prior year period. Scans per scan-based system per day increased to 9.22 in 2016 from 8.74 in 2015. Total scan-based MRI scan volume increased 13.5% to 269,484 scans in the first half of 2016 from 237,494 scans in the first half of 2015. Non scan-based MRI revenue increased $1.6 million in the first half of 2016 over the same period in 2015. Included in the revenue totals above are fixed-site imaging center revenues, which decreased $0.5 million, or 0.9%, to $54.7 million in 2016 from $55.2 million in 2015.

37


 

PET/CT revenue decreased $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016, or 0.5%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015. As we priced competitively to protect and maintain our market share in the mobile imaging market, the average price per PET/CT scan decreased from $902.98 per scan in 2015 to $883.33 per scan in 2016. Total volume of PET/CT scans increased 0.6%, from 69,012 scans in 2015 to 69,460 scans in 2016. The average number of PET/CT systems in service increased to 118.6 systems in 2016 compared to 114.8 systems in 2015. Scans per system per day increased to 5.49 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 5.32 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Oncology revenue increased $2.4 million, or 4.8%, to $51.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $49.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due to an 11.4% increase in revenue per Linac treatment performed in the first half of 2016 when compared to the same prior year period and a 10.1% increase in the number of SRS patients we treated. The growth in Linac treatments was primarily due to our acquisition of PCI in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Interventional revenue increased $11.0 million, or 90.9%, to $23.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $12.1 million for the period February 17, 2015 to June 30, 2015. The increase is primarily due to our acquisitions of TPC in February 2015 and PRC in October 2015.  Further discussion of the acquisitions is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other revenues were $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $14.1 million for the same prior year period.

Cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $11.5 million, or 8.9%, to $140.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $129.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in cost of revenues is primarily due to a $9.7 million increase over prior year in compensation and related employee expenses, primarily due to salary costs in connection with our new affiliations with TPC, PRC and PCI as well as incremental radiology resources to support volume growth and an increase to rents expense of $1.5 million, or 37.2%. All other cost of revenues, excluding depreciation and amortization, remained stable year over year. Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 56.6% in the first half of 2016, compared to 56.8% in the first half of 2015.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.7 million, or 16.0%, to $48.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $41.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase to selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increases in compensation and related employee expenses of $5.8 million, or 22.1% and non-cash stock-based compensation expenses of $1.0 million, or 117.5%, due to a change in control in connection with the Thai Hot Transaction. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was 19.5% in the first half of 2016 compared to 18.3% in the first half of 2015.

Transaction costs decreased $0.7 million, or 44.6%, to $0.8 million in the first half of 2016 compared to $1.5 million in the first half of 2015. Transaction costs represent expenses incurred in connection with ongoing strategic planning by management.

Shareholder transaction costs of $2.5 million are a direct result of the Thai Hot Transaction, whereby Thai Hot and the Selling Stockholders agreed to bear a specified portion of the transaction costs.  Further discussion of the Thai Hot Transaction is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Severance and related costs increased $2.0 million to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the first quarter 2016, an executive officer departed from our Company, leading to higher expenses.

There were no impairment charges during the six months ended June 30, 2016. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we implemented a plan to start the process to close a radiation therapy center and, as a result, recorded a non-cash charge to write off $6.7 million of intangible assets not subject to amortization associated with that center in its Oncology Division. 

Depreciation expense increased $3.1 million, or 13.0%, to $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $23.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 due to the year over year increase in the number of units in our fleet along with our decision to upgrade units we currently own as an alternative to purchasing new equipment.

Amortization expense increased $0.4 million, or 9.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same prior year period. This increase is primarily due to additional amortization charges related to intangible assets that were acquired in recent transactions. Further discussion of recent transactions is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

38


 

Interest expense and other, net increased $3.4 million, or 26.7% to $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, primarily due increased deferred financing costs associated with the amendments to our credit facility, increased borrowings under our senior secured credit agreement and increased equipment debt. We expect interest expense to increase in future periods due to increased deferred financing costs associated with amendments to our credit facility.

Other income, net of expenses was $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared other expenses, net of income of $0.1 million for the same prior year period. As a result of finalizing TPC’s earnout and remeasuring PCI’s and PRC’s earnouts, we recorded a non-cash gain of $3.6 million.

Income tax expense was $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Our effective tax rate was 50.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to (5,725.0)% for the same prior year period. This rate differed from the federal statutory rate principally as a result of state income taxes and permanent non-deductible tax items, including share-based payments, unrecognized tax benefits, and other permanent differences.

Earnings from unconsolidated investees decreased $1.8 million, or 73.7%, to $0.6 million in the first half of 2016 compared to $2.5 million in the first half of 2015. The decrease in earnings from unconsolidated investees is primarily as a result of the consolidation of AHNI, effective August 1, 2015. Further discussion of the AHNI transaction is disclosed in Note 3 – Acquisitions and Transactions of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest decreased $1.0 million, or 10.0%, to $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $9.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease was mostly attributed to decreased year-over-year net income we derived from our joint venture partners.

Net income attributable to Alliance HealthCare Services, Inc. was $1.3 million, or $0.12 per share on a diluted basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to net loss of $0.2 million, or $0.02 loss per share, for the same prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). We believe that, in addition to GAAP metrics, this non-GAAP metric is a useful measure for investors, for a variety of reasons. Our management regularly communicates Adjusted EBITDA and their interpretation of such results to our board of directors. We also compare actual periodic Adjusted EBITDA against internal targets as a key factor in determining cash incentive compensation for executives and other employees, largely because we view Adjusted EBITDA results as indicative of how our radiology, radiation oncology and interventional healthcare services businesses are performing and are being managed.

Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA is consistent with the definition pursuant to our Credit Agreement and represents net income (loss) before: interest expense, net of income tax (benefit) expense, interest income, depreciation expense, amortization expense, non-cash share-based payment, severance and related costs, net income attributable to noncontrolling interest, restructuring charges, fees and expenses related to acquisitions, costs related to debt financing, non-cash impairment charges, legal matter expenses, and other non-cash charges included in other (income) expense, net, which includes non-cash losses on sales of equipment. The components used to reconcile Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA are consistent with our historical presentation of Adjusted EBITDA.

The presentation of a non-GAAP metric does not imply that the reconciling items presented are non-recurring, infrequent or unusual. In general, non-GAAP metrics have certain limitations as analytical financial measures and are used in conjunction with GAAP results to evaluate our operating performance and by considering independently the economic effects of the items that are, or are not, reflected in non-GAAP metrics. We compensate for such limitations by providing GAAP-based disclosures concerning the excluded items in our financial disclosures. As a result of these limitations, and because non-GAAP metrics may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, however, the non-GAAP metrics are not an alternative to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, or as an alternative to any other GAAP measure of operating performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operating activities. We generated $57.9 million and $47.7 million of cash flow from operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our ability to generate cash flow is affected by numerous factors, including demand for MRI, PET/CT, other diagnostic imaging, radiation oncology, and interventional services. Our ability to generate cash flow from operating activities is also dependent upon the collections of our accounts receivable. The provision for doubtful accounts in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, or 0.5% and 0.5% of revenue, respectively. Our number of days of revenue outstanding for our accounts receivable falls within our expected range and historical experience, increasing to 54 days as of June 30, 2016 compared to 52 days at June 30, 2015. We believe this number is comparable to other diagnostic imaging and radiation oncology providers. As of June 30, 2016, we had $29.1 million of available borrowings under our revolving line of credit, net of outstanding letters of credit.

We used cash of $54.1 million and $59.9 million for investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Investing activities during the first half of 2016 included $34.0 million in cash used for equipment purchases, $6.7 million in cash used for acquisitions, and $13.8 million in cash used for deposits on equipment, offset by $0.4 million of proceeds from sales of assets.

Other than acquisitions, our primary use of capital resources is to fund capital expenditures. We spend capital:

 

·

to purchase new systems;

 

·

to replace less advanced systems with new systems;

 

·

to upgrade MRI, PET/CT and radiation oncology systems; and

 

·

to upgrade our corporate infrastructure, primarily in information technology.

Cash capital expenditures totaled $34.0 million and $26.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. In addition, we financed $3.6 million of capital expenditures under equipment financing arrangements in the six months ended June 30, 2016. We purchased 17 MRI systems, 11 PET/CT systems and 32 other imaging equipment units, upgraded various imaging equipment and traded-in or sold a total of eight systems during the six months ended June 30, 2016. At June 30, 2016 we operated 277 MRI systems and 129 PET/CT systems. We also operated 112 fixed-site imaging centers (including one in an unconsolidated joint venture) and 34 radiation oncology centers (including one in an unconsolidated joint venture) at June 30, 2016.

40


 

We expect to purchase additional systems in the remainder of 2016 and finance substantially all of these purchases with our available cash, cash from operating activities and equipment leases. We expect capital expenditures to total approximately $80 to $90 million in 2016 based on planned expansion of our Radiology, Oncology and Interventional Divisions, which will require significant investment, and capital expenditures to maintain our existing portfolio of assets.

Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 of $17.6 million resulted from our proceeds from shareholder transaction of $28.6 million, proceeds from equipment and other assets debt of $4.8 million, proceeds from revolving loan facility of $21.0 million, proceeds from share-based payment arrangements of $0.6 million, offset by principal payments on equipment debt and capital lease obligations of $8.0 million, principal payments on revolving loan facility of $24.0 million, principal payments on term loan facility of $2.6 million, payments of debt issuance costs and deferred financing costs of $25.1 million, noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries of $11.7 million, settlement of contingent consideration related to acquisition of $0.8 million and excess tax benefits from share-based payment arrangements of $0.4 million.

At June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $24.3 million. This available cash and cash equivalents are held in accounts managed by third-party financial institutions and consist of cash in our operating accounts. At June 30, 2016, we had $16.7 million in our accounts with third-party financial institutions that exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. While we monitor daily the cash balances in our operating accounts and adjust the cash balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be adversely affected if the underlying financial institutions fail or could be subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in our operating accounts.

We believe that, based on current levels of operations, our cash flow from operating activities, together with other available sources of liquidity, including borrowings available under our revolving line of credit, will be sufficient over the next one to two years to fund anticipated capital expenditures and potential acquisitions and make required payments of principal and interest on our debt and other contracts. As of June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants contained in our long-term debt agreements and expect that we will be in compliance with these covenants for the remainder of 2016.

If we are able to secure financing with more favorable terms, or our ability to borrow under our revolving and incremental term loan credit facility is insufficient for our capital requirements, it will be necessary to seek alternative sources of financing, including issuing equity, which may be dilutive to our current stockholders, or incurring additional debt. Our ability to incur additional debt is subject to the restrictions in our existing credit facility. We cannot assure you that the restrictions contained in the existing credit facility will permit us to borrow the funds that we need to finance our operations, or that additional debt will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain funds sufficient to finance our capital requirements, we may have to forego opportunities to expand our business.

Credit Facility

On June 3, 2013, we replaced our existing credit facility with a new senior secured credit agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement consists of (i) a $340.0 million, six-year term loan facility, (ii) a $50.0 million, five-year revolving loan facility, including a $20.0 million sublimit for letters of credit, (iii) uncommitted incremental loan facilities of $100.0 million of revolving or term loans, plus an additional amount if our pro forma leverage ratio is less than or equal to 3.25, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of specified conditions, and (iv) an $80.0 million delayed draw term loan facility, which was required to be drawn within thirty days of June 3, 2013 and used for the redemption of our 8% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”) in the original aggregate principal amount of $190.0 million.

On March 29, 2016, the Company entered into a third amendment to the Credit Agreement with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Third Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Amendment, (i) the defined term “Investors” was amended to include THAIHOT Investment Company Limited, so that the sale by the Selling Stockholders would not be deemed to constitute a change of control and (ii) the soft call provision was reinstated to commence on the date the Third Amendment is effective and end the date that is twelve months after such commencement.

Under the soft call provision, if the Company makes a voluntary prepayment of any Term Loan or prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term Loan, and such action results in a reduction in the effective interest cost or weighted average yield of the Term Loan, then the Company shall pay to the administrative agent, for the ratable account of each of the lenders holding Term Loans a prepayment premium equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced. The Third Amendment did not impact the borrowing capacity on the revolving credit facility which remains at $50,000.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at our option, either the London interbank offered rate ("LIBOR") or the base rate (which is the highest of the administrative agent’s prime rate, one-half of

41


 

1.00% in excess of the overnight federal funds rate, and 1.00% in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate), plus, in each case, an applicable margin. With respect to the term loan facilities, the applicable margin for LIBOR loans is 3.25% per annum, and with respect to the revolving loan facilities, the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 3.00% to 3.25% per annum, in each case, with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. The applicable margin for base rate loans under the term loan facilities is 2.25% per annum and under the revolving loan facility ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 2.00% to 2.25% per annum. Prior to the refinancing of the term loan facilities, the applicable margin for base rate loans was 4.25% per annum and the applicable margin for revolving loans was 5.25% per annum, with a LIBOR floor of 2.00%. We are required to pay a commitment fee which ranges, based on the applicable leverage ratio, from 0.375% to 0.50% per annum on the undrawn portion available under the revolving loan facility and variable per annum fees with respect to outstanding letters of credit.

During the first five and one-half years after the closing date, and including the full amount of the delayed draw term loan facility, we were required to make quarterly amortization payments of the term loans in the amount of $1.05 million. We are also required to make mandatory prepayments of term loans under the Credit Agreement, subject to specified exceptions, from excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and with the proceeds of asset sales, debt issuances and specified other events.

Obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Agreement and the guarantees are secured by a lien on substantially all tangible and intangible property, and by a pledge of all of the shares of stock and limited liability company interests of our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, of which we now own or later acquire more than a 50% interest, subject to limited exceptions.

In addition to other covenants, the Credit Agreement places limits on our ability, including our subsidiaries, to declare dividends or redeem or repurchase capital stock, prepay, redeem or purchase debt, incur liens and engage in sale-leaseback transactions, make loans and investments, incur additional indebtedness, amend or otherwise alter debt and other material agreements, engage in mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, transact with affiliates and alter the business we and our subsidiaries conduct.

The Credit Agreement also contains a leverage ratio covenant requiring us to maintain a maximum ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA that ranges from 4.95 to 1.00 to 4.30 to 1.00. At June 30, 2016, the Credit Agreement requires a maximum leverage ratio of not more than 4.55 to 1.00. Failure to comply with the covenants in the Credit Agreement could permit the lenders under the Credit Agreement to declare all amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement, together with accrued interest and fees, to be immediately due and payable, and to terminate all commitments under the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2016, our ratio of consolidated total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA calculated pursuant to the Credit Agreement was 4.15 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2016, there was $500.3 million outstanding under the term loan facility and $16.5 million in borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

If our remaining ability to borrow under our Credit Agreement is insufficient for our capital requirements, we will be required to seek additional sources of financing, including issuing equity, which may be dilutive to our current stockholders, or incurring additional debt. Our ability to incur additional debt is subject to the restrictions in our existing credit facility. We cannot assure that the restrictions contained in the Credit Agreement will permit us to borrow the funds that we need to finance our operations, or that additional debt will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain funds sufficient to finance our capital requirements, we may have to forgo opportunities to expand our business.

Amendments to the Credit Agreement

Our obligations under the incremental term loan are guaranteed by substantially all our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the incremental term loan and the guarantees are secured by a lien on substantially all of our tangible and intangible property, and by a pledge of all of the shares of stock and limited liability company interests of our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, of which we own or later acquire more than a 50% interest, subject to limited exceptions.

The incremental term loans were funded at 99.5% of principal amount and will mature on the same date as the existing term loan facility under the Company’s credit facility on June 3, 2019. Upon funding, the incremental term loans were converted to match all the terms of existing term loans. Interest on the incremental term loan is calculated, at the Company’s option, at a base rate plus a 2.25% margin or LIBOR plus a 3.25% margin, subject to a 1.00% LIBOR floor.

Interest Rate Swaps

We have entered into multiple interest rate swap and cap agreements to hedge the future cash interest payments on portions of our variable rate bank debt. At June 30, 2016, we had interest rate swap and cap agreements to hedge approximately $263.5 million of variable rate bank debt, or 46.1% of total debt. Over the next twelve months, we expect to reclassify $0.6 million from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest expense and other, net.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Audit Committee Investigation

In April 2016, management identified and brought to the attention of the Audit Committee a historical fixed asset impairment issue. Management promptly commenced an investigation into the scope and cause of this fixed asset impairment issue and reported the results to the Audit Committee. Based on the results of the investigation management has concluded a deficiency exists in the operating effectiveness of certain of our internal controls, and we have determined that a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified this deficiency in operating effectiveness that represents a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as follows:

Equipment impairment accounting records in historical periods prior to 2011 were not consistently maintained in the Company’s ERP system in accordance with established procedures. As a result, accumulated depreciation was overstated in the calculation of gain (loss) on disposals, resulting in overstated equipment, net and understated depreciation expense and net losses on disposals in prior periods.  The Company’s internal control related to the review of reconciliations of the ERP system subledger information to the general ledger did not timely and accurately resolve reconciling items for many years back to 2003. This deficiency represented a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weakness. We have made and will continue to make improvements to our internal control over financial reporting, and management, with oversight from our Audit Committee, has identified and is executing the following actions that we believe will remediate the material weakness described above. Specifically, management implemented a plan and is allowing a sufficient period of time to assess effectiveness with regard to the accounting for equipment to:

 

·

Require certain changes to the equipment subledgers be reviewed and approved by the Vice President, Corporate Controller, with specific focus on processes and controls governing the tracking and timely disposition of equipment, net; and

 

·

Enhance control procedures over our equipment, net, including increased education, training, support and oversight of our employees tasked with the completion of reconciliation procedures and resolution of reconciliation items.

As management continues to evaluate the appropriateness of the corrective action plan that we have implemented and work to improve our internal controls over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation plan described above.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting described above and in the 2015 Form 10-K/A. In light of the material weaknesses described above, management performed additional analyses and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management has concluded that the Company's consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented therein, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management has determined that, as of June 30, 2016, there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
