The Company has incurred debt and may need or desire to incur additional debt to finance its operations. If the Company is unable to utilize its existing debt facilities, or secure additional credit in the future by extending the terms of its current credit agreements or obtaining other debt financing from another lender, its operations and profits will be negatively impacted.
The Company’s business is capital intensive. In April 2021, the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries entered into a five-year, $22,000,000 Credit Agreement with Fifth Third, which refinanced its existing domestic Gamma Knife portfolio. In January 2024, the Company and Fifth Third entered into the First Amendment which added an additional $2,700,000 term loan, and, in December 2024, the Company entered into the Second Amendment which added another $7,000,000 term loan. In June 2020, HoldCo, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASHS, entered into the DFC Loan in connection with the acquisition of GKCE. The first tranche of the DFC Loan was funded in June 2020 in the amount of $1,425,000. In October 2023, the second tranche of the DFC Loan was funded in the amount of $1,750,000.
The Company’s combined long-term debt, net, totaled $17,294,000 and $20,182,000 as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of ASHS and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, and the DFC Loan is secured by a lien on GKCE’s assets. Depending on the Company’s financing requirements and market conditions, the Company may seek to finance its operations by incurring additional long-term debt in the future. The Company’s current level of debt may adversely affect the Company’s ability to secure additional credit in the future and, as a result, may affect operations and profitability.
To secure additional credit, the Company may seek to enter into an extension of the Credit Agreements or to enter into a new facility with another lender. However, the Company may not be able to extend the terms of its Credit Agreements or to obtain other debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on satisfactory terms when required, the Company’s ability to support its business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and its business may be harmed.
The Company’s operations and profitability may also be materially adversely affected in the event of a default under the Credit Agreements, which could result in the Company’s creditors accelerating the defaulted loan, seizing the Company’s assets with respect to which a default has occurred, and applying any collateral they may have at the time to cure the default. On December 10, 2025, the Company received notice from Fifth Third asserting that an event of default had occurred under the Credit Agreement. For a discussion of the potential adverse effects of an event of default under the Credit Agreements, see the risk factors below titled “Upon a default under the Credit Agreements, the Company may be subject to suspended borrowing abilities, accelerated payment obligations with respect to outstanding indebtedness, and other adverse consequences that would negatively affect the Company’s business, operations, and financial condition” and “The Company’s liquidity position and the potential acceleration of payment obligations under the Credit Agreements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.”
Upon an event of default under the Credit Agreements, the Company may be unable to utilize certain of its debt facilities, payment obligations may be accelerated, and the Company could be subject to other adverse consequences that would negatively affect the Company’s business, operations, and financial condition.
The Company is obligated to comply with certain financial-reporting requirements, financial ratios, and liquidity and leverage thresholds under certain covenants in the Credit Agreements. The Company’s ability to meet those affirmative covenants on an on-going basis can be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial market, and industry conditions, and the Company cannot give assurance that it will be able to satisfy such ratios and tests when required. A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under the Credit Agreements. In December 2025 the Company was notified of an asserted default of a cash-maintenance covenant under the Credit Agreement with Fifth Third, as discussed in more detail below.
Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders could elect to declare the amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreements immediately due and payable and take actions to enforce their security interest in certain Company assets such as seeking to take possession of, and to dispose of, the collateral securing the credit facilities and loans. The Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected as a result of any of those events. Each of these adverse consequences remains a possibility due to the defaults under the Credit Agreements described below.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2024, HoldCo was not in compliance with all of its debt covenants then in effect pursuant to the DFC Loan. However, on March 28, 2024, the Company obtained a waiver for the covenant non-compliance as of December 31, 2023. On March 3, 2025, the Company received an additional waiver from DFC for certain covenants as of December 31, 2024 and through December 31, 2025. However, if a waiver from DFC is required in the future for potential non-compliance (including due to the Financial Covenant Defaults described below resulting from non-compliance with the Credit Agreement), DFC may be unwilling to provide a waiver and could, as a result, among other remedies, accelerate the repayment of the debt obligations outstanding under the DFC Loan, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company was not in compliance with the Minimum Cash Covenant under the Credit Agreement. On December 10, 2025, the Company received notice from Fifth Third asserting that an event of default had occurred under the Credit Agreement due to the Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the Minimum Cash Covenant for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025, and not due to a payment default. As a result of the September Event of Default, the notice informed the Loan Parties to the Credit Agreement that Fifth Third had effectively suspended the Borrowers’ ability to borrow additional amounts under the Revolving Line of the Credit Agreement.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, the maximum funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio, and the Minimum Cash Covenant required by the Credit Agreement. The Company has notified Fifth Third of the December Events of Default. As a result of the Financial Covenant Defaults as of September 30, 2025 and as of December 31, 2025, Fifth Third may exercise any of its rights, powers, privileges, and remedies under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, applicable law, and otherwise with respect to any event of default, including but not limited to the right to accelerate the Borrowers’ payment obligations under the Credit Agreement.
The Company determined that the Financial Covenant Defaults under the Credit Agreement could be deemed to have resulted in an event of default under the DFC Loan. Although, as the date of this Annual Report, the Company is currently in discussions with Fifth Third regarding a waiver and an amendment to the Credit Agreement, there can be no assurances regarding the outcome of such discussions. Similarly, if an event of default occurred under the DFC Loan due to non-compliance under the Credit Agreement, there can be no assurance that DFC will be willing to provide a waiver. Despite the Company’s efforts to obtain waivers, DFC and Fifth Third could instead exercise their rights to accelerate the repayment of outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreements, among other remedies that would adversely affect the Company’s business, operations, and financial condition.
In addition to the Company’s noncompliance with financial covenants and resulting defaults under the Credit Agreements, the Company faces risks associated with the upcoming maturity of its Facilities under the Credit Agreement with Fifth Third, which mature on April 9, 2026. Although the Company is currently in discussions with Fifth Third regarding a potential extension of such maturity date, there can be no assurance that Fifth Third will agree to any such extension or, if obtained, as to the terms or duration of any such extension. If the Company is unable to obtain an extension of the maturity of the Facilities, the Company will not have sufficient cash on hand to repay the Facilities at maturity. Any failure to repay such obligations when due would constitute an event of default under the Credit Agreement with Fifth Third, which could be deemed to result in a cross-default under the Credit Agreement with DFC and give rise to the possibility that Fifth Third and DFC will accelerate the Company’s payment obligations, exercise remedies against the collateral securing the Credit Agreements, or exercise any other adverse remedies available to them.
As of the date of this Annual Report, neither Fifth Third nor DFC has accelerated the obligations of the borrowers under the Credit Agreements or any related loan documents. However, unless and until the Company successfully negotiates a waiver or an agreement to amend, refinance, or replace the Credit Agreements, the possibility remains that Fifth Third and/or DFC will accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements and exercise the other adverse remedies available to them upon an event of default, including seizing the Company’s assets with respect to which a default has occurred and applying any collateral available at the time to cure the default.
If Fifth Third or DFC were to accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements, the Company would not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy such accelerated payment obligations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See the risk factor below titled “The Company’s liquidity position and the potential acceleration of payment obligations under the Credit Agreements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.”
The Company’s liquidity position and the potential acceleration of payment obligations under the Credit Agreements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Due to the Financial Covenant Defaults under the Credit Agreement and any resulting event of default that may be deemed to have occurred under the DFC Loan, the lenders could seek to accelerate the Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Agreements. Although, as of the date of this Annual Report, neither Fifth Third nor DFC has accelerated payment obligations under the Credit Agreements, there can be no assurance that they will not do so. If the Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Agreements are accelerated due to the Financial Covenant Defaults, or any other event of default, the Company would likely not have sufficient cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and other cash resources to immediately satisfy the obligations. Furthermore, if the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining an extension of the maturity date from Fifth Third, there would not be sufficient cash on hand to pay the Facilities under the Credit Agreement if they become due on April 9, 2026. As long as the Company remains in default under the Credit Agreements, and unless and until the Company successfully negotiates a waiver or an agreement to amend, refinance, or replace the Credit Agreements, the conditions described above raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s financial condition raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, which may adversely affect its business, stock price, financial condition, ability to obtain financing, and continued operations.
The existence of substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, and any related disclosure in the Company’s financial statements, may materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, or to otherwise raise capital necessary to execute its current operating plans. If the Company is unable to obtain such financing or capital, it may not be able to continue its operations at their current scope or scale or to carry out its future business objectives. In addition, substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern could negatively impact the trading price of the Company’s common stock, result in increased scrutiny by regulators and investors, and cause lenders, customers, and other third parties to limit or terminate their relationships with the Company. Any such results could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition.
The Company’s debt agreements contain restrictions that limit its flexibility in operating its business, which could have an adverse effect on its business and operations.
The Credit Agreement and the DFC Loan contain various restrictive covenants that limit the Company’s ability to engage in specified types of transactions. These covenants subject the Company to various restrictions that limit the Company from, among other activities, creating any unpermitted liens to exist on its assets, incurring additional indebtedness, causing a sale of all or substantially all of its assets, effecting a merger, paying dividends or other distributions on capital stock, redeeming shares of capital stock, engaging in transactions with affiliates, or undertaking lease obligations above certain thresholds. Moreover, under certain of our credit arrangements, we have granted the lender a security interest in Company assets as security for our obligations. Any new facility or loan agreement that the Company enters into in the future could subject the Company to additional restrictions on its business operations. These restrictions limit the Company’s flexibility in operating its business.
Congress enacted legislation in 2013 that significantly reduced the Medicare reimbursement rate for outpatient Gamma Knife treatment by setting it at the same amount paid for linear accelerator-basedLINAC-based radiosurgery treatment. Gamma Knife treatment has been relatively stable during the last five years. There can be no assurance that CMS reimbursement levels will be maintained at levels providing the Company an adequate return on its investment. Any future reductions in the reimbursement rate would adversely affect the Company’s revenues and financial results.
The Company'sCompany’s revenue sharing is subject to payor mixpayor-mix variability which could negatively impact the Company'sCompany’s revenue and financial results.
The Company’s average reimbursement rate for its revenue sharing and retaildirect patient service customers is dependent on the percentage mix of government associated payors and commercial managed care payors. Commercial and managed care payors tend to reimburse at a higher level than government payors. Therefore, a shift in payor mix to a higher level of government payors will reduce the Company’s average reimbursement rate per treatment.
Each Gamma Knife, PBRT or advanced LINEAR acceleratorLINAC device requires a substantial capital investment. In some cases, we contribute additional funds for capital costs and/or annual operating and equipment related costs such as marketing, maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Due to the structure of our contracts with medical centers, there can be no assurance that these costs will be fully recovered or that we will earn a satisfactory return on our investment, which could have a material negative impact on our revenues and financial results. Additionally, the Company ismay be obligated to remove the equipment at the end of the lease term. In the event the customer does not purchase the equipment from the Company or the Company is not able to trade in the equipment, the Company is required to remove the equipment and record an Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”).
The Company has incurred debt and may incur additional debt to finance its operations and if the Company is unable to secure additional credit in the future its operations and profits will be negatively impacted.
The Company’s business is capital intensive. On April 9, 2021, the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries entered into a five year $22,000,000 credit agreement with Fifth Third, which refinanced its existing domestic Gamma Knife portfolio. The lease financing previously obtained by Orlando was also refinanced as long-term debt by the Credit Agreement. On January 25, 2024, the Company and Fifth Third entered into the First Amendment which added an additional $2,700,000 term loan, and, on December 18, 2024 the Company entered into the Second Amendment which added another $7,000,000 term loan. In June 2020, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, HoldCo, entered into the DFC Loan in connection with the acquisition of GKCE. The first tranche of the DFC Loan was funded in June 2020 in the amount of $1,425,000. In October 2023, the second tranche of the DFC Loan was funded in the amount of $1,750,000 to finance its equipment upgrade in Ecuador.
The Company’s combined long-term debt, net, totaled $20,182,000 as of December 31, 2024. The Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries and the DFC Loan is secured by a lien on GKCE’s assets. The Credit Agreement includes a $7,000,000 Revolving Line available for future projects and general corporate purposes. Depending on the Company’s financing requirements and market conditions, the Company may seek to finance its operations by incurring additional long-term debt in the future. The Company’s current level of debt may adversely affect the Company’s ability to secure additional credit in the future, and as a result may affect operations and profitability. If a default on debt occurs in the future, the Company’s creditors would have the ability to accelerate the defaulted loan, to seize the Company’s assets with respect to which default has occurred, and to apply any collateral they may have at the time to cure the default.
The Company’s debt agreements contain restrictions that limit its flexibility in operating its business, and the Company may be required to repay the outstanding indebtedness in an event of default, which would have an adverse effect on our business.
The Credit Agreement and the DFC Loan contain various covenants that limit the Company’s ability to engage in specified types of transactions. These covenants subject the Company to various restrictions that limit the Company from, among other activities, creating any unpermitted liens to exist on its assets, incurring additional indebtedness, causing a sale of all or substantially all of its assets, effecting a merger, paying dividends or other distributions on capital stock, redeeming shares of capital stock, engaging in transactions with affiliates, or undertaking lease obligations above certain thresholds. Moreover, under certain of our credit arrangements we have granted the lender a security interest in Company assets as security for our obligations.
In addition, the Company is obligated to comply with certain financial-reporting requirements, financial ratios, and liquidity and leverage thresholds under certain covenants in its Credit Agreement and DFC Loan. The Company’s ability to meet those financial ratios and tests can be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial market and industry conditions and the Company cannot give assurance that it will be able to satisfy such ratios and tests when required.
A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under the Credit Agreement and the DFC Loan. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders could elect to declare the amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement or DFC Loan immediately due and payable. The lenders under the Credit Agreement and the DFC Loan could also exercise their rights to take possession of, and to dispose of, the collateral securing the credit facilities and loans. The Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected as a result of any of those events. The Company may seek to enter into an extension of the credit and loan agreements or to enter into a new facility or loan agreement with another lender. However, the Company may not be able to extend the term or obtain other debt financing on terms that are favorable to the Company, if at all, and the Company could be subject to additional restrictions on its business operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on satisfactory terms when required, the Company’s ability to support its business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and its business may be harmed.
As of December 31, 2023 and 2024, HoldCo was not in compliance with all of its debt covenants then in effect pursuant to the DFC Loan. However, on March 28, 2024, the Company obtained a waiver for the covenant non-compliance as of December 31, 2023 (the “DFC Waiver”). On March 3, 2025 the Company received an additional DFC waiver for certain covenants as of December 31, 2024 and through December 31, 2025. However, if a waiver from DFC is required in the future for potential non-compliance, DFC may be unwilling to provide a waiver and could, as a result, among other remedies, accelerate the repayment of the debt obligations outstanding under the DFC Loan, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.
The Company’s failure to file certain financial statements in connection with the RI Acquisition pursuant to Rules 8-04 and 8-05 of Regulation S-X and Item 9.01 of Form 8-K will limit the Company’s ability to raise capital.
On May 7, 2024, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report the completion of the Company’s acquisition of 60% of the equity interests in each of the RI Companies from GenesisCare. Based on information available to the Company, the Company believes that the acquisition would qualify as a “significant” acquisition under Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X and as a result, under Rules 8-04 and 8-05 of Regulation S-X, the Company would be required to provide (i) audited financial statements for the RI Companies as of and for the period ended June 30, 2023 and unaudited interim financial statements to the extent applicable (the “8-04 financial information”), and (ii) pro forma historical financial information combined to reflect the RI Companies’ financial information for the most recent fiscal year and interim period (the “8-05 financial information” and, together with the 8-04 financial information, the “S-X financial information”).
The Company purchased its interest in the RI Companies as part of the sale of certain of GenesisCare’s assets in its bankruptcy proceedings which were initiated in early June 2023. Due to the lack of reliable financial information for the RI Companies following the protracted bankruptcy proceedings, the Company is not able to obtain financial information sufficient to be able to provide the S-X financial information. The Company, therefore, is not in compliance with Rules 8-04 and 8-05 of Regulation S-X. Unless the Company files the S-X financial information, the Securities and Exchange Commission will not declare effective registration statements or post-effective amendments filed by the Company until twelve months following the date on which the Company has filed a periodic report with the Securities and Exchange Commission that meets the requirements of Regulation S-X, and affiliates will be not be permitted to make sales of securities pursuant to Rule 144 pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Company may fail to successfully integrate the interests acquired in the RI Acquisition with its legacy business in a timely manner, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, or the Company may fail to realize all of the expected benefits of the RI Acquisition, which could negatively impact the Company’s future results of operations.
The integration of any acquisitions, including the RI Acquisition, completed during the 2024 fiscal year, requires significant time and resources. A failure by the Company to successfully integrate the businesses, operations, and contractual obligations of the RI Companies with the Company’s existing business in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations. Acquiring a majority interest in the RI Companies, assuming obligations under the commercial payor contracts set forth in the IPA, and integrating the businesses of the three turn-key radiation therapy cancer centers that the RI Companies operate in Rhode Island has involved and likely will continue to involve several risks that could undermine the success and expected benefits of the RI Acquisition. Such risks include but are not limited to the following:
If the Company is not successful in addressing these risks effectively, the Company’s business and operations could be impaired.
The Company has commenced remediation of the above discussed material weakness as it has expanded its accounting staff and personnel since late in fiscal 2024.year 2024, including during fiscal year 2025. The Company will continue to evaluate its accounting and finance staffing needs as well as make planned enhancements to its systems and improvements to its financial reporting processes. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in remediating the material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. If the Company is unable to successfully complete its remediation efforts or favorably assess the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, the Company’s operating results, financial position, stock price, and ability to accurately report its financial results and timely file its SEC reports could be adversely affected.
The Company’s ability to make scheduled payments of the principal and interest on its indebtednessindebtedness, including under the Credit Agreements, depends on the Company’s financial condition and operating performance, which is subject to economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, and other factors.factors, and may be adversely affected if the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreements are accelerated upon an event of default. There can be no assurance that the Company will maintain a level of cash flow from operating activities sufficient to permit it to pay the principal of and any interest on its indebtedness. If the Company’s cash flow and capital resources are insufficient to fund its debt obligations, including as a result of any acceleration of indebtedness, the Company may be forced to delay investments and capital expenditures, to seek additional capital, or to restructure or refinance its indebtedness. There can be no guarantee that those alternative measures will be available, either at all or on terms that are favorable to the Company, or that they will be successful even if available in allowing the Company to meet its debt-service obligations. In the absence of such operating results and resources, the Company could experience liquidity issues, which could force the Company to take alternative measures to satisfy its debt obligations, such as selling assets, restructuring debt, or obtaining additional equity capital on potentially onerous or highly dilutive terms. The Credit Agreement and DFC LoanAgreements restrict the Company’s ability to dispose of assets and to use the proceeds from such dispositions, so the Company may be restricted from taking certain measures, such as conducting an asset sale, to meet its debt-service obligations. The ability to refinance indebtedness would also depend on the general state of capital markets and on the Company’s financial condition, neither of which can be predicted at this time.
Any acceleration of the Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Agreements could exacerbate the Company’s cash-flow constraints and further strain its liquidity. See the risk factors above titled “Upon an event of default under the Credit Agreements, the Company may be unable to utilize certain of its debt facilities, payment obligations may be accelerated, and the Company could be subject to other adverse consequences that would negatively affect the Company’s business, operations, and financial condition” and “The Company’s liquidity position and the potential acceleration of payment obligations under the Credit Agreements raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.”
Flaws in the Company’s due-diligence assessment in connection with the equity interests and payor contracts acquired in the RI Acquisition could have a significant negative effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
The Company conducted due diligence when evaluating the RI Acquisition prior to executing the IPA and during the interim period between signing the IPA and closing the RI Acquisition. The time and costs of the due-diligence process were amplified with respect to the Company’s evaluation of the potential costs and benefits of the RI Acquisition due to the distressed state and bankruptcy of GenesisCare. Despite the thoroughness of the Company’s review, diligence may not have revealed all material issues that could affect the Company’s interests in the RI Companies acquired in the RI Acquisition. In addition, factors outside of the Company’s control could later arise. The Company’s failure to identify material issues specific to the business and operations of the RI Companies and the liabilities and obligations the Company assumed from the assignment of the payor contracts, during the Company’s due diligence process, could negatively impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
There is constant change and innovation in the market for highly sophisticated medical equipment. New and improved medical equipment can be introduced that could make the Gamma Knife technology obsolete and that would make it uneconomical to operate. In 2006, Elekta introduced a new model of the Gamma Knife, the Perfexion, which the Company has implemented at all of its domestic sites. The Perfexion can perform procedures faster than previous Gamma Knife models and it involves less health care personnel intervention. In 2015, Elekta introduced the Leksell Gamma Knife Icon ™. The Perfexion is upgradeable to the Icon platforms which has enhanced imaging capabilities allowing for treatment without a head frame and the treatment of larger tumors. In 2022, Elekta introduced an upgrade to the Icon, called the Esprit. Existing model 4(C)s of the Gamma Knife are not upgradeable to the Perfexion model. Currently, four of the Company’s eight Gamma Knife units in the United States are Esprits and all of the Company’s eightnine Gamma Knife units are Perfexion models, onesix of which hashave the Icon upgrade. The Company’s equipment in Ecuador wasbeen upgraded to a Perfexion with Icon in November 2023. The Company is in the process of upgrading the equipment in Peru from a Model 4(C) to the Esprit (including the Company’s Gamma Knife unit in Peru in July 2025), and expectstwo of which have been upgraded to completethe thisIcon upgrade during(including the secondCompany’s quarterGamma ofKnife 2025.Unit in Ecuador in November 2023). The failure to acquire or use new technology and products could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
As of December 31, 2024, we determined that our Gamma Knife portfolio had no remaining salvage value, and certain sites experienced equipment impairment or the contracts are expired or are expected to expire in the second quarterquarters of 2025.2025 and 2026, respectively. Additionally, two sites that recently recognized their salvage value as part of the Esprit upgrade were subsequently impaired. Accordingly, we concluded that there was no salvage value remaining and the Company recognized equipment impairment as of December 31, 2024.

American Shared Hospital Services is a leading provider of turn-key technology solutions for stereotactic radiosurgery and advanced radiation therapy equipment and services. The main drivers of the Company’s revenue are numbers of sites, procedure volume, and reimbursement. The Company delivers radiation therapy through medical equipment leasing and direct patient services, its two reportable segments. The medical equipment leasing segment, which we also refer to as the Company’s leasing segment, operates by fee-per-use contracts or revenue sharing contracts where the Company shares in the revenue and operating costs of the equipment. The Company leases nineseven Gamma Knife systems and one PBRT system as of December 31, 2024,2025, where a contract exists between the hospital and the Company. The Company also owns and operates two single-unit Gamma Knife facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador, one single-unit radiation therapy facility in Puebla, Mexico, and as a result of the completion of the RI Acquisition on May 7, 2024, the Company also has an interest in and operates three single-unit radiation therapy facilities in Rhode Island. These facilities constitute the direct patient services segment, which we also refer to as the Company’s retail segment, where a contract exists between the Company'sCompany’s facilities and the individual treated at the facility. A summary of the Company’s medical equipment leases and direct patient service sites is set forth in the table below:
The Company had two contracts expire in the second and third quarters of 2023, respectively, and one in November 2024. In February 2025, the Company and one of its customercustomers mutually agreed to terminate their lease agreement prior to the contract term,term. andThe theCompany had one Gamma Knife contract expire in April 2025. The Company expects a fourththird contract to expire in the second quarter of 2025. The Company has one customer contract that was upgraded to the Esprit in January 2025.2026. A summary of the Company’s procedure volumes for fiscal years 20242025 and 20232024 are set forth in the table below.
The decrease in Gamma Knife volume during 20242025 in the leasing segment was primarily due to the expiration of twothree contracts in the secondfourth quarter of 2024, and thirdthe first and second quarters of 2023 and a third contract that expired in November 2024, respectively.2025. Same center procedures decreasedincreased 15%11% in 2025 compared to 2023,2024, partiallydriven dueby toequipment downtimeupgrades forat thetwo existing customers. The upgrade of one Gamma Knife system to the Esprit duringsystem allows for treatment of more types of diagnoses. We believe the seconddecrease quarterin ofPBRT 2024volume andduring other2025 was due to normal, cyclical fluctuations. The Company’s PBRT unit was impacted by several hurricanes during 2024, which drove lower procedure volume at that location.
The decrease in Gamma Knife volume during 2025 in the direct patient service segment was due to downtime to upgrade the unit in Peru from a Gamma Knife Model 4(C) to the Gamma Knife Esprit. The facility also relocated its physical location and incurred downtime to modify the new space to accommodate the Esprit unit.
The increase in Gamma Knife volume during 2024 in the retail segment was due to improved marketing and physician outreach at the Company’s international locations. In addition, the Company’s Gamma Knife unit in Ecuador was upgraded to the Esprit and received a Cobalt-60 reload in November 2023, providing for faster procedure time.
The increase in LINAC procedure volume during 20242025 was the result of the completion of the RI Acquisition in May 2024 and the beginning of the Company’s treatment of patients at its LINAC facility in Puebla, Mexico. On May 7, 2024, the Company acquired 60% of the interests of the RI Companies. The RI Companies operate three, existing, stand-alone radiation therapy cancer centers in Woonsocket, Warwick and Providence, Rhode Island. In July 2024, the Company began treating patients at a stand-alone LINAC facility in Puebla, Mexico. All four LINAC locations operated for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2025, compared to a partial period during 2024.
In addition, in March 2025, bipartisan legislation known as the ROCR Act was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. The ROCR Act would require CMS to establish a new, specialized payment program under Medicare pursuant to which radiation therapy providers and suppliers would receive bundled payments for episodes of care provided to individuals with specified cancer types (with each episode of care generally beginning at the time radiation therapy planning is furnished and ending 30 or 90 days later depending on the type of cancer being treated). The proposed program is intended to implement a case-rate payment methodology and has been described by industry participants as a more simplified alternative to the RO APM. The ROCR model would cover primarily EBRT modalities for the 15 most common cancer types. However, unlike the RO APM, proton beam radiation therapy services would remain outside the ROCR model and would remain subject to fee-for-service reimbursement. As a result, reimbursement for services involving the Company’s PBRT system would fall outside the scope of the ROCR Act as currently contemplated, while reimbursement for services involving the Company’s Gamma Knife units (which provide a specialized form of EBRT) would likely be subject to the ROCR Act program. The ROCR Act remains pending, and it is uncertain whether it will be enacted or, if enacted, the timing, scope, or ultimate form of any such program or its impact on the Company’s business.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and follow general practices within the industry in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the consolidated the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 2 – Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements. These policies along with the disclosures presented in the other consolidated financial statement notes and, in this discussion, and analysis, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the consolidated financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of the consolidated financial statement amounts,amounts and the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified estimated useful lives of property and equipment and its salvage values,equipment, impairment of property and equipment, business combinations, and revenue recognition for revenue sharing customers, and as such the aforementioned could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available. The following are our critical accounting policies in which management’s estimates, assumptions and judgments most directly and materially affect the consolidated financial statements:
The Company recognizes revenues under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 Leases (“ASC 842”) and ASC 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The Company delivers radiation therapy through medical equipment leasing (“leasing”) and direct patient services (“retail”).services. The Company leased nineseven Gamma Knife systems and one PBRT system as of December 31, 2024.2025. The leasing business operates by fee-per-use contracts or revenue sharing, where the Company shares in the revenue and operating costs of the equipment. The Company also owns and operates two single-unit Gamma Knife facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador, one single-unit radiation therapy facility in Puebla, Mexico, and following the RI Acquisition on May 7, 2024, the Company also owns a 60% interest in and operates three single-unit radiation therapy facilities in Rhode Island, collectively, the retaildirect patient service segment.
The Company recognizes revenues under ASC 842 when services have been rendered and collectability is reasonably assured, on either a fee per use or revenue sharing basis. The terms of the contracts do not contain any guaranteed minimum payments. The Company’s lease contracts typically have a ten-year term and are classified as either fee per use or revenue sharing. Fee per use revenues are recognized at the time the procedures are performed, based on each hospital’s contracted rate and the number of procedures performed. Under revenue sharing arrangements, the Company receives a contracted percentage of the reimbursement received by the hospital. The amount the Company expects to receive is recorded as revenue and estimated based on historical experience. Revenue estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted as necessary. Some of the Company’s revenue sharing arrangements also have a cost sharing component and net profit share for the operating costs of the center. The Company records an estimate of operating costs which are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted as necessary to more accurately reflect the actual operating costs and profit. The operating costs and estimated net operating profit are recorded as other direct operating costs in the consolidated statements of income.operations. For the years ended, December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, the Company recognized leasing revenue of approximately $15,629,000$12,553,000 and $17,772,000$15,629,000 under ASC 842, respectively, of which approximately $9,952,000$7,369,000 and $10,133,000$9,952,000 were for PBRT services, respectively.
Direct Patient Services Revenue (“Retail”)
On May 7, 2024, the Company acquired 60% of the interests of the RI Companies. The RI Companies operate three, existing, stand-alone radiation therapy cancer centers in Woonsocket, Warwick and Providence, Rhode Island, where contracts exist between the Company’s facilities and the individual patients treated at the facility. Under ASC 606, the Company acts as the principal in these transactions and provides, at a point in time, a single performance obligation, in the form of radiation therapy treatment. The Company’s stand alone radiation therapy facility in Puebla, Mexico is also accounted for under ASC 606. Revenue related to radiation therapy is recognized at the expected amount to be received, based on insurance contracts and payor mix, when the patient receives treatment. There is no variable consideration present in the Company’s performance obligation and the transaction price is agreed upon per the stated contractual rate. Payment terms at these facilities are typically prepaid for self-pay patients and insurance providers are paid net 30 to 60 days. The Company did not capitalize any incremental costs related to the fulfillment of its customer contracts. The Company also concluded these facilities are part of its retaildirect patient service segment, see further discussion below.
Accounts receivable under ASC 606 at December 31, 2025 and January 1, 2025 were $8,138,000 and $6,073,000. Accounts receivable under ASC 606 at December 31, 2024 and January 1, 2024 were $11,229,000$6,073,000 and $1,626,000. Accounts receivable under ASC 606 at December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2023 were $1,626,000 and $1,119,000. For the years ended December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, the Company recognized retaildirect patient service revenues of approximately $12,556,000$15,529,000 and $3,553,000$12,556,000 under ASC 606, respectively.
During the year-endedyear ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold one of its Gamma Knife Perfexion units with an Icon upgrade to the customer it was leased to and recorded a net gain on equipment sale. During the year-ended December 31, 2023, the Company completed a sale of equipment to a new customer. The Company assessed this transaction under ASC 606 and concluded the Company acted as the agent in this transaction and provided, at a point in time, twoa single performance obligations,obligation, in the form of an equipment sale of an Icon and Cobalt-60 reload.Icon. The performance obligation to sell, assign, transfer and deliver the equipment to the customer was carried out via Elekta. Revenue related to the equipment sale is recognized on a net basis when the sale is complete. The Company recognized net revenues of $155,000 and $200,000 on the sale of equipment for the yearsyear ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.2024.
Salvage Value on Equipment
The Company determines salvage value based on the estimated fair value of the equipment at the end of its useful life. There is no active resale market of Gamma Knife or PBRT equipment, but the Company believes its salvage value estimates are a reasonable assessment of the economic value of the equipment when the contract ends. There is no salvage value assigned to the two Gamma Knife units in Peru or Ecuador. The Company has not assigned salvage value to its PBRT equipment.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company had seven domestic Gamma Knife units with salvage value ranging from $140,000 to $300,000. As of December 31, 2024, the Company reduced its estimate of salvage value for the remaining five Gamma Knife units to $0. Prior to this change, the Company had five Gamma Knife units with salvage value ranging from $175,000 to $300,000. This change in estimate was made as of December 31, 2024, therefore, there was no impact for the current year, but this change in estimate will impact future periods.
See Note 3 - Property and Equipment to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on salvage value.

The Company also increased and impaired its ARO liability for one of the impaired units where the Company does not plan to renew the contract in early 20252026 and will remove this unit at its contract term. The six sites that were impaired and ARO for one of the impaired units were recorded as write down of impaired assets foras theof December 31, 2024. The Company also reviewed its long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of 2025 and concluded no events or circumstances existed that indicated additional impairment existed at December 31, 2025.
During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded an ARO for one of the customer contracts that expired during 2023. An ARO for the second contract that expired during 2023 was recorded and impaired in a prior period. For the ARO recorded during 2023, the Company concluded the related increase to the underlying assets could not be supported by the cash flows of the equipment and therefore the Company recorded a loss on the write-down of the ARO during the three-month period ended June 30, 2023. The Company also reviewed its long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of 2023 and concluded events and circumstances existed that indicated additional impairment existed at a third Gamma Knife site related to the existing equipment.
TheFor the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a $3,794,000 net bargain purchase gain related to the RI Acquisition that closed on May 7, 2024. The Company acquired 60% of the equity interests of the RI Companies, which operate three radiation therapy facilities, for $2,850,000. The assets acquired exceeded the total purchase price by the bargain purchase amount and the Company recorded this difference as a gain for the year ended December 31, 2024. See Note 12 - RI Acquisition to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion on bargain purchase.
Interest and other income decreasedincreased $174,000$120,000 in 20242025 compared to 2023.2024.

The Company’s direct patient segment incurred a net loss of $1,167,000 in 2025 compared to net income of $5,566,000 in 2024. Net income for the Company’s retail segment increased $5,474,000 in 2024 compared to 2023. The increase in 2024 compared to 2023 was primarily due to the bargain purchase gain from the RI Acquisition and profitability of the three stand-alone facilities acquired, in which the Company acquired an interest. The Company’s direct patient segment incurred a net loss in 2025, primarily due to physician turnover at the RI facilities, which impacted volumes during the year. Also, the Company experienced equipment downtime in Peru to upgrade its equipment in July 2025.

The Company’s expected primary cash needs on both a short and long-term basis are for capital expenditures, business expansion, working capital, and other general corporate purposes. The Company believes that its revenue from operations, together with borrowing capacity under the Revolving Line and its access to capital resources are sufficient to continue funding its present operations, to meet its commitments on its existing debt, and to meet its operating capital and funding requirements for the next 12 months from the date of this Annual Report.
Operating activities provided $167,000$3,098,000 of cash in 2024,2025, which was driven by net income of $1,532,000, non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $6,174,000, a loss on the write down of impaired assets of $3,084,000, gain on sale of equipment of $155,000,$5,714,000, stock-based compensation expense of $373,000,$404,000, accretion of deferred issuance costs of $95,000,$126,000, net changes in lease liabilities of $285,000, changes in related party liabilities of $324,000,$207,000, and changes in payables and other accrued liabilities of $2,227,000.

Cash Flows ProvidedUsed byin Financing Activities
Financing activities used $3,027,000 of cash during 2025, which was driven by payments on long-term debt of $3,014,000 and distributions to non-controlling interests of $21,000. These decreases were offset by capital contributions from non-controlling interests of $8,000.
Financing activities provided $4,405,000 of cash during 2024, which was driven by long-term debt financing from the Supplemental Term Loan and Second Supplemental Term Loan of $9,860,000 and capital contributions of $38,000. These increases were offset by net payments on the Revolving Line of $2,500,000, payments on long-term debt of $2,734,000, debt issuance costs of $164,000, and distributions of noncontrolling interests of $95,000.

The Company had a working capital deficit at December 31, 2025 of $5,724,000 compared to working capital of $15,853,000 at December 31, 2024. The $21,577,000 decrease in net working capital was primarily due to decreasing cash and an increase in the current portion of long-term debt, net, specifically following the notification from Fifth Third asserting an event of default under the Credit Agreements. The Company’s Credit Agreement with Fifth Third matures in April 2026, and, although the Company is optimistic it will be able to negotiate an extension to the Credit Agreement, if the Company is unable to do so, the Company’s liquidity will be adversely impacted and the Company’s ability to satisfy all of its commitments over the next twelve months in accordance with their current terms would be jeopardized. See additional discussion in the “Commitments” section below.
The Company, in the past, has secured financing for its projects from several lenders and anticipates that it will be able to secure financing on future projects from these or other lending sources, but there can be no assurance that financing will continue to be available on acceptable terms. If the Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Agreements become accelerated due to the events of default under such agreements, the Company would not have sufficient cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and other cash resources to satisfy such accelerated payment obligations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See additional discussion in the “Long-Term Debt” and “Going-Concern Consideration” sections below.
The Company had working capital at December 31, 2024 of $15,853,000 compared to working capital of $9,677,000 at December 31, 2023. The $6,176,000 increase in net working capital was primarily due to an increase in trade, tax, and other receivables, primarily attributable to the RI Companies.

American Shared Hospital Services is a leading provider of turn-key technology solutions for stereotactic radiosurgery and advanced radiation therapy equipment and services. The main drivers of the Company’s revenue are numbers of sites, procedure volume, and reimbursement. The Company delivers radiation therapy through medical equipment leasing and direct patient services, its two reportable segments. The medical equipment leasing segment, which we also refer to as the Company’s leasing segment, operates by fee-per-use contracts or revenue sharing contracts where the Company shares in the revenue and operating costs of the equipment. The Company leases seven Gamma Knife systems and one PBRT system as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, where a contract exists between the hospital and the Company.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (“CMS”) has established a 2026 delivery code reimbursement rate of approximately $7,525 ($7,645 in 2025) for a Medicare Gamma Knife treatment. The approximate CMS reimbursement rates for delivery of PBRT for a simple treatment without compensation for 2026 is $565 ($578 in 2025) and $1,277 ($1,276 in 2025) for simple with compensation, intermediate and complex treatments, respectively.
The Company recognizes revenues under ASC 842 and ASC 606. The Company had seven domestic Gamma Knife units, two international Gamma Knife units, three domestic LINAC units, one international LINAC unit, and one PBRT system in operation in the United States as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026,2026 and ten domestic Gamma Knife units, two international Gamma Knife units, three domestic LINAC units, and one PBRT system in operation in the United States as of MarchJune 31,30, 2025. Five of the Company’s seven domestic Gamma Knife customers are under fee-per-use contracts, and two customers are under revenue sharing arrangements. The seven domestic Gamma Knife contracts operate under the Company’s leasing segment. The Company’s PBRT system at Orlando Health is considered a revenue share contract operating under the leasing segment. On March 13, 2026, the Company and Orlando Health, Inc. entered into an amendment to their PBRT lease agreement to, among other things, extend the term through April 5, 2033. The Company’s interest in three single-unit radiation therapy facilities, acquired in Rhode Island in May 2024, and the Company’s single-unit LINAC facility in Puebla, Mexico operate under the Company’s direct patient services segment. The Company, through GKF, also owns and operates two single-unit, international Gamma Knife facilities in Lima, Peru and Guayaquil, Ecuador. These two units economically operate under the Company’s direct patient services segment.
Rental revenue from medical equipment leasing (“leasing”) – The Company recognizes revenues under ASC 842 when services have been rendered and collectability is reasonably assured, on either a fee-per-use or revenue sharing basis. The terms of the contracts do not contain any guaranteed minimum payments. The Company’s lease contracts typically have a ten-year term and are classified as either fee-per-use or revenue sharing. Fee-per-use revenues are recognized at the time the procedures are performed, based on each hospital’s contracted rate and the number of procedures performed. Under revenue sharing arrangements, the Company receives a contracted percentage of the reimbursement received by the hospital. The amount the Company expects to receive is recorded as revenue and estimated based on historical experience. Revenue estimates are reviewed periodically and adjusted as necessary. Some of the Company’s revenue sharing arrangements also have a cost sharing component. The Company records an estimate of operating costs which are reviewed on a regular basis and adjusted as necessary to more accurately reflect the actual operating costs. The operating costs are recorded as other direct operating costs in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The increase for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was due to increased procedure volume from the direct patient services segment, offset by lower procedure volume from the leasing segment.
The number of Gamma Knife procedures increased by 2131 and 52 to 229295 and 524 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, compared to 208264 and 472 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. Gamma Knife procedures from the Company’s leasing segment decreased 10.1%11.3% and 11.1% for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, primarily due to the expiration of one customer contract in April 2025. Gamma Knife procedures from the Company’s direct patient services segment, which are the two international Gamma Knife locations, increased 44%46.7% and 45.4% for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, compared to the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The Company completed the equipment upgrade in Peru to a Gamma Knife Esprit in June 2025. Following the upgrade, there was an increase in volume driven by shorter treatment times. The Company’s facility in Ecuador also experienced a 49% increase in volumes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to same period in the prior year. The patient populations in Peru and Ecuador are primarily insured by local government therefore volumes can be impacted by local legislation changes or social and economic factors. Both facilities were impacted by local factors during the first quarterand second quarters of 2025.
Total costs of revenue increased by $626,000$1,556,000 and $2,182,000 to $5,796,000$6,997,000 and $12,793,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, compared to $5,170,000$5,441,000 and $10,611,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively.
Maintenance and supplies and other direct operating costs, related party, increased by $200,000$117,000 and $317,000 to $1,061,000$973,000 and $2,034,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $861,000$856,000 and $1,717,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The increase in maintenance and supplies and other direct operating costs, related party, for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, was due to maintenance for the LINAC in Puebla, Mexico that was previously under warranty, maintenance for the LINAC equipment in Rhode Island, and the PBRT maintenance contract, which increases on an annual basis.
Depreciation and amortization decreased by $156,000 and $312,000 to $1,289,000$1,341,000 and $2,630,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $1,445,000$1,497,000 and $2,942,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The decrease in depreciation and amortization for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was due to the expiration of one Gamma Knife customer contract in April 2025, a change in estimate for the useful life of the PBRT equipment, and assets in Rhode Island that became fully depreciated. These decreases were partially offset by higher depreciation on the Gamma Knife equipment in Peru that was replacedupgraded during the second quarter of 2025,2025. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company amended its lease for the PBRT equipment with Orlando Health. The amendment extended the lease an additional seven years, beginning April 6, 2026. Following the amendment, the Company changed its remaining estimate for the useful life for the PBRT equipment. The net effect of this change in estimate for the three and assetssix-month periods ended June 30, 2026, was a decrease in Rhodenet Islandincome thatof becameapproximately fully$52,000 depreciated.or $0.01 per diluted share, for both periods. This change in estimate will also impact future periods.
Other direct operating costs increased by $582,000$1,595,000 and $2,177,000 to $3,446,000$4,683,000 and $8,129,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $2,864,000$3,088,000 and $5,952,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The increase in other direct operating costs for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was primarily due to operating costs at the RI facilities, which are part of the Company’s direct patient services segment and have higher operating costs compared to facilities in the Company’s leasing segment. The Company also increased the estimate for allowance for credit losses for the RI Facilities by $909,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026,which contributed to the increase compared to the same periods of the prior year, respectively.
Selling and administrative expense increased by $102,000$296,000 and $398,000 to $1,910,000$2,042,000 and $3,952,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $1,808,000$1,746,000 and $3,554,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The increase in selling and administrative expense for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was primarily due to audit, tax and consulting fees, offset by lower legal fees.fees incurred to negotiate the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement. See Note 10 - Subsequent Event for further information.
Interest expense decreased by $131,000$127,000 and $258,000 to $302,000$301,000 and $603,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, compared to $433,000$428,000 and $861,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. The decrease in interest expense for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was due to a lower average principal balance on the Company’s debt compared to the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively.
Interest and other income, net, increased by $2,000 and decreased by $8,000 to $47,000 and $101,000 for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 compared to $45,000 and $109,000 for the same periods in the prior year, respectively. Interest and other income, net, for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 was comparable to the same period of the prior year. Interest and other income, net, decreased for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 due to lower interest income received on the Company’s cash, driven primarily by lower average cash balances compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest and other income, net, decreased by $10,000 to $54,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to $64,000 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was due to lower interest income received on the Company’s cash, driven primarily by lower average cash balances compared to the same period in the prior year.
Income tax expense increased by $415,000$156,000 and $571,000 to an expense of $92,000$135,000 and $227,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, compared to an income tax benefit of $323,000$21,000 and $344,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. Income tax expense for the three-monthsix-month period ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026, included a non-recurring adjustment for unrecognized tax benefits related to foreign taxes of $31,000, which offset income tax expense for the same period, compared to $71,000 for the three-monthsix-month period ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025. Excluding this adjustment, income tax expense for the three-monthsix-month period ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 increased $375,000.$531,000 compared to the prior period. The increase in income tax expense for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was due to profits generated at the Company’s direct patient services segment in foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s direct patient services segment conducts operations in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions.
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests increased by $63,000$286,000 and $349,000 to a loss of $350,000$484,000 and $834,000 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 20262026, compared to $287,000$198,000 and $485,000 for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. Net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests represents net income or loss earned by the 40% non-controlling interest in the Rhode Island facilities, the 19% non-controlling interest in GKF, and net income or loss of the non-controlling interests in various subsidiaries controlled by GKF. The change in net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests reflects the relative profitability or loss of the three Rhode Island facilities and GKF and its subsidiaries.
Net loss attributable to American Shared Hospital Services decreasedincreased by $13,000$234,000 and $221,000 to a net loss of $612,000,$514,000, or $0.09$0.07 per diluted share and a net loss of $1,126,000, or $0.17 for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to a net loss of $625,000,$280,000, or $0.10$0.04 per diluted share and a net loss of $905,000 or $0.14 per diluted share for the same periodperiods in the prior year.year, respectively. Net loss for the three-monththree periodand six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 decreasedincreased primarily due to increasedlegal revenuesfees comparedincurred to negotiate the Third Amendment to the sameCredit periodAgreement inand the prior year.

The Company’s primary liquidity needs are to fund capital expenditures as well as support working capital requirements. In general, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents on hand. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $5,223,000$6,761,000 at MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $3,712,000 at December 31, 2025. The Company’s cash position increased by $1,511,000$3,049,000 during the first threesix months of 2026 driven by cash provided by operating activities of $2,149,000.$4,385,000. This increase was offset by payment for the purchase of property and equipment of $41,000,$99,000, payments on long-term debt of $472,000,$1,112,000, and distributions to non-controlling interests of $125,000. The Company’s expected primary cash needs on both a short and long-term basis are for capital expenditures, business expansion, working capital, and other general corporate purposes. The Company has scheduled interest and principal payments under its debt obligations of approximately $10,407,000$10,907,000 during the next 12 months. Of this amount, there was an aggregate of $7,605,000 due on April 9, 2026 for the Term Loan and DDTL.DDTL (although subsequent to June 30, 2026, the maturity date was extended to June 30, 2027). For a further discussion of these obligations, see “Long-Term Debt” below.
The Company had a working capital deficit at MarchJune 31,30, 2026 of $5,446,000$5,056,000 compared to a working capital deficit of $5,724,000 at December 31, 2025. The $278,000$668,000 decrease in working capital deficit was primarily due to increasingan cash and a decreaseincrease in the current portion of long-term debt, net,cash offset in part by an increase in accountsother payableaccrued liabilities and related party payables. If the Company is unable to negotiate an extension to the Credit Agreement,Agreement beyond June 30, 2027, the Company’s liquidity will be adversely impacted and the Company’s ability to satisfy all of its commitments over the next twelve months in accordance with their current terms would be jeopardized. See additional discussion in the “Long-Term Debt” and “Commitments” sections below. The Company, in the past, has secured financing for its Gamma Knife and radiation therapy units. The Company has secured financing for its projects from several lenders and anticipates that it will be able to secure financing on future projects from these or other lending sources, but there can be no assurance that financing will continue to be available on acceptable terms. Furthermore, if the Company’s payment obligations under the Credit Agreements becomewere to be accelerated due to theany new or uncured events of default under such agreements, the Company would not have sufficient cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and other cash resources to satisfy such accelerated payment obligations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See additional discussion in the “Long-Term Debt” and “Going-Concern Consideration” sections below.
Fifth Third Credit Agreement
On April 9, 2021, the Company along with certain of its domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Loan Parties”) entered into a five year $22,000,000 credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Fifth Third Bank, N.A. (“Fifth Third”). The Credit Agreement includes three loan facilities. The first loan facility is a $9,500,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”) which was used to refinance the domestic Gamma Knife debt and finance leases, and associated closing costs. The second loan facility of $5,500,000 is a delayed draw term loan (the “DDTL”) which was used to refinance the Company’s PBRT finance leases and associated closing costs, as well as to provide additional working capital. The third loan facility provides for a $7,000,000 revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Line”) available for future projects and general corporate purposes. The facilities have a five-year maturity, which matured on April 9, 2026, and carry a floating interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.0% (6.86%6.74% as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026) and are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Loan Parties and guaranteed by ASHS, Orlando and ASRS. There was $7,075,000 due on April 9, 2026 for the Term Loan and DDTL.
The long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Term Loan, DDTL, Revolving Line, Supplemental Term Loan and Second Supplemental Term Loan was $15,895,000$15,427,000 and $16,197,000 as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company did not capitalize any debt issuance as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, related to the issuance of the Supplemental Term Loan and Second Supplemental Term Loan.
On September 30, 2025, the Company received a limited waiver from Fifth Third with respect to its failure to be in compliance with the maximum funded debt to EBITDA ratio covenant in the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2025 and with respect to the delivery of items following the closing of the Second Amendment.
On December 16, 2025 and May 29, 2026, the Loan Parties received a notice from the Lender (the “Notice”) asserting that certain Events of Default had occurred under the Credit Agreement, including that the Company was not in compliance with the minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, the maximum funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio, and the Minimum Cash Covenant as of December 31, 2025 and as of March 31, 2026 and that the Company failed to pay outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement when the Term Loan and DDTL matured on April 9, 2026 (such alleged defaults being collectively referred to as the “Specified Events of Default”). In December 2025, Fifth Third notified the Company that, among other things, it had suspended the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to additional Revolving Loan Advances. In the notice delivered to the Loan Parties on May 29, 2026, Fifth Third exercised its right to increase interest on advances to the default rate effective from and after the earliest to occur of the Specified Events of Default. The default rate added two percent per annum to the existing interest rate in effect for amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. These Specified Events of Default were uncured as of June 30, 2026. Additionally, as of June 30, 2026, the Company was not in compliance with minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, the maximum funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio, and the Minimum Cash Covenant under the Credit Agreement. As a result, the Loan Parties were not in compliance with the Credit Agreement as of such date.
On July 22, 2026 (the “Third Amendment Effective Date”), the Loan Parties and Fifth Third entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement and Forbearance Agreement (the “Third Amendment”). In the Third Amendment, Fifth Third agreed to forbear from exercising certain rights and remedies in respect of certain events of default under the Credit Agreement (the “Designated Events of Default”), including the Specified Events of Default identified in a notice delivered to the Loan Parties on May 29, 2026, beginning on the Third Amendment Effective Date until June 30, 2027 (the “Standstill Period”), subject to certain forbearance termination events. Fifth Third also agreed that the minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, the maximum funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio, and the Minimum Cash Covenant covenants are not applicable during the Standstill Period. The Third Amendment imposes a variety of obligations and restrictions on the Loan Parties, including a prohibition from requesting any revolving loan advances, requires the Loan Parties to make defined payments in accordance with the terms of the Third Amendment, including to make monthly payments of interest on the Term Loan beginning on the Third Amendment Effective Date until the maturity date and quarterly payments of $125,000 of principal on the Term Loan beginning on October 10, 2026, and to make monthly payments of interest only on the Delayed Draw Term Loan beginning on the Third Amendment Effective Date until the maturity date, and quarterly payments of $75,000 of principal on the Delayed Draw Term Loan beginning on October 10, 2026. The Third Amendment imposes other covenants and obligations on the Loan Parties, including that the Company pursue a sale of all or a portion of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, achieve certain milestones with respect to a prospective sale, and pay certain fees to the Lender if such milestones are not achieved. The Third Amendment provides that all obligations under the Credit Agreement are due and payable at the end of the Standstill Period.
DFC Loan Agreement
As previously disclosed, (i) on December 10, 2025, the Loan Parties received notice from Fifth Third asserting that an Event of Default had occurred under the Credit Agreement due to the Borrowers’ failure to comply with the Minimum Cash Covenant as of September 30, 2025, and (ii) as of December 31, 2025, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum fixed-charge coverage ratio, the maximum funded debt-to-EBITDA ratio, and the Minimum Cash Covenant required by the Credit Agreement and notified Fifth Third of such non-compliance (all such defaults in clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Financial Covenant Defaults”). The Financial Covenant Defaults under the Credit Agreement remain uncured as of March 31, 2026, and, as a result, the Loan Parties are not in compliance with the Credit Agreement as of such date.
Due to the Financial Covenant Defaults described above, Fifth Third may exercise any of its rights, powers, privileges, and remedies under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and applicable law, including the right to accelerate the Borrowers’ payment obligations under the Credit Agreement. In December 2025, as a result of the Financial Covenant Defaults, Fifth Third notified the Company that, among other things, it had suspended the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to additional Revolving Loan Advances. To date, Fifth Third has not accelerated the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents.
As noted above, the Credit Agreement matured on April 9, 2026 and is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Loan Parties and is guaranteed by ASHS. The Loan Parties did not satisfy all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement on the maturity date. ASHS is currently in discussions with Fifth Third regarding a waiver and an amendment to extend the maturity date of the Credit Agreement. However, there can be no assurances regarding the outcome of such discussions.
The loan entered into with United States International Development Finance Corporation (“DFC”) in connection with the acquisition of GKCE in June 2020 (the “DFC Loan”) was obtained through the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, HoldCo and is guaranteed by GKF. The DFC Loan is secured by a lien on GKCE’s assets. The first tranche of the DFC Loan was funded in June 2020. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the second tranche of the DFC loan was funded to finance the equipment upgrade in Ecuador. The amount outstanding under the first tranche of the DFC Loan is payable in 29 quarterly installments with a fixed interest rate of 3.67%. The amount outstanding under the second tranche of the DFC Loan is payable in 16 quarterly installments with a fixed interest rate of 7.49%. The long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the DFC Loan was
$985,000 $821,000 and
$1,149,000 as of
March 31,June 30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, respectively.
The DFC Loan contains customary covenants including without limitation, requirements that HoldCo maintain certain financial ratios related to liquidity and cash flow as well as depository requirements. On March 28, 2024, HoldCo received a waiver and amendment from DFC forthat waived certain covenants as of December 31, 2023 and through December 31, 2024 and amended other covenants and definitions permanently. On March 3, 2025, the Company received an additional waiver from DFC for certain covenants as of December 31, 2024 and through December 31, 2025. HoldCo was not in compliance with the cash to debt covenant at March 31, 2026 and at June 30, 2026. The Company notified DFC of this non-compliance and is in discussions for an extended waiver or amendment to the DFC Loan. However, there can be no assurances regarding the outcome of such discussions.
Furthermore, ASHS has determined that HoldCo’s non-compliance with the DFC Loan could be deemed to have resulted in an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) under the Credit Agreement with Fifth Third. However, asprior ofto the dateparties ofentering thisinto Quarterlythe Report,Third Amendment, Fifth Third hasdid not delivereddeliver any notice to the Loan Parties asserting that such an Event of Default has occurred ornor sought to exercise any remedies it may have under the Credit Agreement as a result thereof.Agreement.
The Company’s failure to comply with the covenants under the Credit Agreements could result in the Company’s credit commitments being terminated and the principal of any outstanding borrowings, together with any accrued but unpaid interest, under the Credit Agreements could be declared immediately due and payable. Furthermore, upon declaring an Event of Default, the lenders under the Credit Agreements could also exercise their rights to take possession of, and to dispose of, the collateral securing the credit facilities and loans and could pursue additional default remedies uponDuring a period in which the Company is in default under the Credit Agreements, Fifth Third and DFC could accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements. If Fifth Third or DFC were to accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements as seta forthresult inof eachthe defaults thereunder, the Company would likely not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy such agreement.accelerated payment obligations. As a result, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
RCS/TIG Holdings LLC Promissory Note
On July 22, 2026, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and a Promissory Note and Security Agreement (the “Note”), with RCS/TIG Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Subordinated Lender”). The Subordinated Lender is controlled by the Executive Chairman of the Board of the Company. The principal amount of the Note is $2,000,000 and bears interest at an annual rate of 10%. All interest accrued and payable is capitalized and added to the outstanding principal amount of the Note. All unpaid principal and any unpaid and accrued interest is due and payable on July 21, 2027 (the “Maturity Date”). There are no prepayment fees associated with the Note. The Note is secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company, which lien is subordinated to the lien of the Lender. The Subordinated Lender’s ability to exercise its rights under the Note are limited by an Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement between the Lender and the Subordinated Lender.
GKCE Loans
As long as the Company remains in default under the Credit Agreements, Fifth Third and DFC could accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements. If Fifth Third or DFC were to accelerate all payment obligations under the Credit Agreements as a result of the defaults thereunder, the Company would not have sufficient cash on hand to satisfy such accelerated payment obligations. As a result, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In November and December 2024, GKCE obtained two loans with banks locally in Ecuador (the “GKCE Loans”). The GKCE Loans carry interest rates of 12.60% and 12.78% and are payable in twelve and thirty-six equal monthly installments of principal and interest, respectively. The Company did not capitalize any debt issuance costs related to the GKCE Loans. Total long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the GKCE Loans was $47,000$39,000 and $53,000 as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, long-term debtdebt, net, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets was $16,843,000.$16,216,000. See Note 3 - Long Term Debt to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Company had commitments to purchase and install two Esprit and two LINAC systems. The Esprit upgrades and one LINAC installation are anticipated to occur in the second half of 2026 or later at existing customer sites. The remaining LINAC is reserved for a future customer site. Total Gamma Knife and LINAC commitments as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were $7,884,000. There are no deposits on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to these commitments as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, nor are there any penalties if the Company decides to not execute these commitments. The Company’s current intent is to finance substantially all of these commitments. There can be no assurance that financing will be available for the Company’s initiatives or future projects, or at terms that are acceptable to the Company. However, the Company currently has cash on hand of $5,223,000$6,761,000 and is actively engaged with financing resources to fund these projects.
As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, the Company had commitments to service and maintain its Gamma Knife, LINAC, and PBRT equipment. The service commitments are carried out via contracts with Mevion, Elekta, Solutech and Mobius Imaging, LLC. The Company’s commitment to purchase one LINAC system also includes a 5-year agreement to service the equipment, respectively. Total service commitments as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 were $5,705,000.$5,764,000. The Gamma Knife and certain other service contracts are paid monthly, as service is performed. The Company believes that cash flow from cash on hand and operations will be sufficient to cover these payments.
The following table summarizes related party activity for the three-monththree and six-month periods ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025:
The Company also had commitments to purchase and install two Esprit units and two LINACs, and service the related equipment totaling $10,464,000$10,174,000 as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026.
