In addition, changes in U.S. or foreign sanctions, export controls, or cross-border data transfer requirements could restrict our ability to operate or to deliver services from our offshore locations, increase compliance costs, or require costly migration to alternative delivery models.
We believe that the labor costs in our Offshore Offices are approximately 15% - 17% of the cost of comparably educated and skilled workers in the U.S. If there were potential disruptions in any of these locations, they could have a negative impact on our business.
We use and plan to expand our use of artificial intelligence, and challenges associated with the development, deployment and regulation of AI technologies could adversely affect our business, reputation and results of operations.
We currently incorporate, and plan to further expand the use of, artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies across our products, services and internal operations. AI is a rapidly evolving technology and its use presents significant technical, operational, legal, regulatory, compliance, cybersecurity, privacy and reputational risks. AI technologies are probabilistic in nature and may produce inaccurate, incomplete or misleading outputs, reflect or amplify unintended biases, or result in discriminatory or otherwise adverse outcomes. If our AI-enabled products or services are perceived to be deficient, unreliable, biased or otherwise flawed, our reputation, customer relationships, competitive position and business could be materially adversely affected, and customers may delay adoption of, reduce reliance on, or discontinue use of our solutions.
The use of AI also increases the risk of cybersecurity incidents and unauthorized access to, disclosure of, or misuse of sensitive information, including Protected Health Information (“PHI”) and other personal or proprietary data. Failures in our governance, controls or safeguards relating to AI could result in violations of applicable privacy, security and healthcare laws and regulations, contractual obligations or industry standards, including those applicable to certified health IT products, and could expose us to regulatory enforcement actions, litigation, significant remediation costs, contractual liability and reputational harm.
Our AI initiatives may rely on third-party technologies, tools, data sources or open-source components, over which we have limited control. In addition, the legal and regulatory framework governing AI is rapidly evolving and uncertain. New or existing laws and regulations may increase our compliance costs, require changes to our products or business practices, delay or limit deployment of AI-enabled solutions, or expose us to additional liability. Further, our competitors may adopt AI technologies more quickly or more successfully than we do, and market demand for AI-enabled healthcare solutions remains uncertain. If we are unable to effectively develop, govern and deploy AI technologies, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
We may not be successful in our artificial intelligence initiatives, which could adversely affect our business, reputation, or financial results.
We have made, and expect to continue to make, investments to integrate AI into our products and update our products to enable our customers to use Al for insights, digital experiences, and applications, as well as to use Al to enhance our own engineering and business operations. Such integration and use of AI may become more important in our product offerings and operations over time. Our AI efforts may not be successful and our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their offerings more successfully and efficiently than we do and achieve greater and faster adoption, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our business and financial results. In addition, given the rapidly developing nature of Al, we may fail to adequately adopt and adapt to technological advancements, which may have a negative impact on our product development capabilities and adversely affect our business and financial results.
In
order to operate more efficiently, control costs and improve profitability, we incurred $606,000$154,000 and $645,000$606,000 of restructuring costs
in 20242025 and 2023,2024, respectively, primarily consisting of severance and separation costs associated with the optimization of the Company’s
operations and profitability improvements. WeThere expect to incur approximately an additional $100,000 of restructuring costs in 2025. There
can be no assurance that these actions will achieve their intended benefits.
Our
business depends on our ability to adapt to evolving technologies and industry standards and upgrade existing products and introduce
new products and services accordingly. If we cannot adapt to changing technologies and industry standards, including changing requirements
of third-party applications and software and meetmeeting the requirements of our customers, our products and services may become obsolete,
and and
our business would suffer significantly. Because both the healthcare industry and the healthcare IT technology market are constantly
evolving, our success will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to enhance our existing products and services, develop new technology
that addresses the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our customers, respond to technological advances and emerging industry
standards and practices on a timely and cost-effective basis, educate our customers to adopt these new technologies, and successfully
assist them in transitioning to our new products and services. The development of our proprietary technology entails significant technical
and business risks. We may not be successful in developing, using, marketing, selling, or maintaining new technologies effectively or
adapting our proprietary technology to evolving customer requirements, emerging industry standards or changing third party applications,
and, as a result, our business and reputation could materially suffer. We may not be able to introduce new products or services on schedule,
or at all, or such products or services may not achieve market acceptance or existing products or services may cease to function properly.
A failure by us to timely adapt to ever changing technologies or our failure to regularly upgrade existing or introduce new products
or to introduce these products on schedule could cause us to not only lose our current customers but also fail to attract new customers.
We
believe that the labor costs in our Offshore Offices are approximately 15% of the cost of comparably educated and skilled workers in
the U.S. If there were potential disruptions in any of these locations, they could have a negative impact on our business.
If
the federal government were to impose a tax on imports or services performed abroad, we might be subject to additional liabilities. At
this time,
there is no way to predict whether this will occur or estimate the impact on our business.
If
we lose the services of Mahmud Haq as Executive Chairman, Stephen Snyder as Chief Executive Officer, A. Hadi Chaudhry and Stephen Snyder as Co-ChiefChief Executive Officers,Strategy
Officer, or other
members of our management team, or if we are unable to attract, hire, integrate and retain other necessary employees,
our business would
be harmed.
Our
future success depends in part on our ability to attract, hire, integrate and retain the members of our management team and other qualified
personnel. In particular, we are dependent on the services of Mahmud Haq, our founder, principal stockholder and Executive Chairman,
Stephen Snyder as Chief Executive Officer and A. Hadi Chaudhry and Stephen Snyder as Co-ChiefChief ExecutiveStrategy Officers.Officer. Mr. Haq is instrumental in managing our offshore
operations in
our Pakistan Offices and coordinating those operations with our U.S. activities. The loss of Mr. Haq, who would be particularly
difficult difficult
to replace, could negatively impact our ability to effectively manage our cost-effective workforce in our Pakistan Offices,
which enables
us to provide our products and solutions at attractive prices. Our future success also depends on the continued contributions
of our
other executive officers and certain key employees, each of whom may be difficult to replace, and upon our ability to attract
and retain
additional management personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we compete for qualified personnel with other
employers. employers.
We may face difficulty identifying and hiring qualified personnel at compensation levels consistent with our existing compensation
and and
salary structure. If we fail to retain our employees, we could incur significant expenses in hiring, integrating and training their
replacements, replacements,
and the quality of our services and our ability to serve our customers could diminish, resulting in a material adverse
effect on our
business.
We
may not be able to negotiate a credit facility at reasonable terms as the current credit facility expires in October 2025.
Our
$10 million credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First Citizens Bank, (“SVB”) expires in October 2025.
The Company believes it will be able to enter into a new credit facility that will provide sufficient liquidity at favorable terms either
with SVB or another lending institution. However, negotiations have not yet started, and we may not be able to obtain a credit facility
that provides sufficient liquidity at favorable terms.
We
maintain our cash at domestic and foreign financial institutions,institutions. oftenBalances inheld balancesdomestically thatmay exceed federally insured limits. Foreign
banking institutions do not provide bank deposit insurance.
The
financial markets recently have encountered volatility associated with concerns about the balance sheets of domestic banks, especially
small and
regional banks who may have significant losses associated with investments that make it difficult to fund demands to withdraw
deposits deposits
and other liquidity needs. Although the federal government has announced measures to assist these banks and protect depositors,
some some
banks have already been impacted and others may be materially and adversely impacted. Our business is dependent on bank relationships,relationships
and we are proactively monitoring the financial health of such bank relationships. Continued strain on the banking system may adversely
impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Foreign banking institutions do not provide insurance against balances
held there.
We
perform an annual goodwill impairment test on October 31st of each year, or more frequently if indicators for potential impairment
exist. As a result of the 2023 annual goodwill impairment test, we recorded impairment charges of approximately $2 million at that time.
Indicators that were considered included significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results, significant negative
industry or economic trends, or a significant decline in our stock price and/or market capitalization or enterprise value for a sustained
period of time. While we believe the assumptions used in determining whether there was an impairment and the amount of any resulting
impairment were reasonable and commensurate with the views of a market participant, changes in key assumptions in the future, including
increasing the discount rate, lowering forecast for revenue and operating margin, selection of guideline public companies or lowering
the long-term growth rate, could result in additional charges; similarly, one or more changes in these assumptions in future periods
due to changes in circumstances could result in additional future impairments. There was a triggering event at August 31, 2023, but it
was determined that there was no impairment. During December 2023, the Company had an additional triggering
event as a result of the
suspension of the payment of the dividends on the Preferred Stock. As a result of a December 2023 triggering
event, the Company recorded
additional impairment charges of approximately $40 million. We cannot predict if or when additionala future goodwill impairments
impairment may occur.
Any additional goodwill impairments could have material adverse effects on our operating results, net assets, or
our cost of, or access
to, capital, which could harm our business. For the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, no additional goodwill impairment
was recorded. See
Note 3,4, Goodwill and Intangible Assets - Net, to our consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report
on Form 10-K for
more details.
We
use artificial intelligence in our business, and challenges with properly managing its use could result in reputational and competitive
harm, legal liability, and adversely affect our results of operations.
We
currently incorporate artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions into our intelligent cloud products, and these applications
will become important in our operations over time. Our competitors or other third parties may incorporate AI into their products and
offerings quicker or more successfully than us, which could impair our ability to compete effectively and adversely affect our results
of operations. Additionally, if the content, analyses, or recommendations that AI applications assist in producing are, or are alleged
to be inaccurate, deficient, or biased, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected. The use
of AI applications has resulted in, and may in the future result in, cybersecurity incidents that implicate the sensitive data of customers
analyzed within such applications. Any such cybersecurity incidents related to our use of AI applications for analysis of sensitive data
could adversely affect our reputation and results of operations. AI also presents emerging ethical issues and if our use of AI becomes
controversial, we may experience brand or reputational harm, competitive harm, or legal liability. The rapid evolution of AI, including
potential government regulation of AI and its various uses will require significant resources to develop, test and maintain our intelligence
cloud platform, offerings, services, and features to help us implement AI ethically in order to minimize any unintended, harmful impact.
We
are subject to risks related to a public health crisis such as a global pandemic similar to the coronavirus (COVID-19). Numerous governmental
jurisdictions, including the State of New Jersey where we maintain our principal executive offices, and those in which many of our U.S.
and international offices are basedbased, may impose “shelter-in-place” orders, quarantines, executive orders and similar government
orders and restrictions for their residents to control the spread of public health emergencies. Such orders or restrictions, and the
perception that such orders or restrictions could occur, could result in business closures, work stoppages, slowdowns and delays, work-from-home
policies, travel restrictions and cancellation of events, among other effects, thereby negatively impacting our customers, employees,
and offices, among others.
Our
managed medical practices and customers could face supply chain issues that would disrupt their ability to service patients and therefore,therefore
impact our revenue.
We
have no unconditional commitments with respect to any acquisition as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although we expect
that one or more
acquisition opportunities will become available in the future, we may not be able to acquire additional companies at
all or on terms
favorable to us. We will likely need additional financing for such acquisitions, but there is no assurance that we will
be able to borrow
funds or raise capital through the issuance of our equity on favorable terms. Certain of our larger, better capitalized
competitors may
seek to acquire some of the companies we may be interested in. Competition for acquisitions would likely increase acquisition
prices prices
and result in us having fewer acquisition opportunities.
Depending
on the type of businessesbusiness we acquire (e.g., RCM, practice management, EHR, etc.), we may have varying cost saving and/or cross-selling
opportunities with the acquired business. However, there is no assurance that we will achieve anticipated cost savings and cross-selling
on our acquisitions, and failure to do so may mean we overpaid for such acquisitions.
At
the current pricesprice of our common and Preferred Stock,stock, we may be unable to execute accretive acquisitions.
HistoricallyAt
times we have used our common and Preferred Stockstock to pay in part for acquisitions. Due to the lower market pricesprice of thesethe securities,common stock, we
may not be
able to use thesethis securitiessecurity to execute future acquisitions.
Actual or perceived failures to comply with healthcare, data protection, privacy, security and fraud and abuse laws and regulations could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The healthcare industry is subject to extensive and evolving federal, state and foreign laws, regulations, standards and contractual obligations, including those governing healthcare operations, data protection, privacy and security, fraud and abuse and the handling of sensitive information. The global data protection and privacy landscape continues to evolve rapidly, and we are or may become subject to additional or more stringent requirements governing the collection, use, disclosure, retention, transfer and security of personal information, including health information. Compliance with these requirements is complex, costly and resource-intensive, and changes in laws, regulations or their interpretation or enforcement may restrict our operations, require modifications to our products or services, increase our costs or expose us to liability.
Any failure, or perceived failure, by us or our third-party service providers to comply with applicable laws, regulations, industry standards, contractual obligations or internal policies could result in regulatory investigations, enforcement actions, civil litigation, contractual liability, fines, penalties, negative publicity or reputational harm, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we are subject to contractual and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection and information security that may be more stringent than applicable legal requirements, which may increase compliance costs, slow sales cycles or limit customer adoption of our products and services.
HIPAA and its implementing regulations impose significant requirements relating to the privacy and security of protected health information (“PHI”). We are subject to HIPAA and related contractual obligations, including obligations to safeguard PHI and to enter into business associate agreements with certain third-party vendors. Any failure by us or our vendors to comply with these obligations could expose us and our customers to significant contractual, civil or regulatory liability. We also process certain de-identified data subject to HIPAA requirements, which requires safeguards to prevent re-identification and compliance obligations if re-identification occurs.
In the ordinary course of our business, we collect, process and store sensitive information, including proprietary business information, intellectual property and personally identifiable information. Any data security incident involving us or our third-party vendors could result in regulatory investigations, reporting obligations, enforcement actions, litigation, fines or penalties under applicable federal and state privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), as well as reputational harm, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, certain federal and state fraud and abuse laws, including anti-kickback and false claims laws, may apply to us indirectly through our relationships with healthcare providers, customers and partners. Violations of these laws can result in substantial civil and criminal penalties, exclusion from government healthcare programs and reputational harm. If we are found to have violated, or facilitated the violation of, such laws, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
The Office of Inspector General (the “OIG”) of the Department of Health and Human Services (the “HHS”) has a longstanding concern that percentage-based billing arrangements may increase the risk of improper billing practices. In addition, certain states have adopted laws or regulations forbidding splitting of fees with non-physicians which may be interpreted to prevent business service providers, including medical billing providers, from using a percentage-based billing arrangement. The OIG and HHS recommend that medical billing companies develop and implement comprehensive compliance programs to mitigate this risk. While we have developed and implemented a comprehensive billing compliance program that we believe is consistent with these recommendations, our failure to ensure compliance with controlling legal requirements, accurately anticipate the application of these laws and regulations to our business and contracting model, or other failure to comply with regulatory requirements, could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity and negatively affect our business.
The federal Anti-Kickback Statute (the “AKS”) prohibits us from knowingly and willfully soliciting, receiving, offering or providing remuneration in exchange for referrals or recommendations for purposes of selling products or services which are paid for by federal healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. In addition, a claim including products or services resulting from a violation of the AKS constitutes a violation of the federal False Claims Act (the “FCA”). If we are determined to have violated the FCA, we may be required to pay up to three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus mandatory civil penalties for each separate false claim. If we are found to be in violation of the FCA, AKS, ACA, or any other applicable state or any federal fraud and abuse laws, whether by our current practices or for the past practices of a company we acquire, we may be subject to substantial civil damages and criminal penalties and fines that could have a material adverse impact on our business.
In
addition, federal and state legislatures and agencies periodically consider proposals to revise aspects of the healthcare industry or
to revise or create additional statutory and regulatory requirements. For instance, the current administration may make changes to the
ACA, the nature and scope of which are presently unknown. Similarly, certain computer software products are regulated as medical devices
under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. While the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) has sometimes chosen to
disclaim disclaim
authority to, or to refrain from actively regulating certain software products which are similar to our products, this area
of medical
device regulation remains in flux. We expect that the FDA will continue to be active in exploring legal regimes for regulating
computer computer
software intended for use in healthcare settings. Any additional regulation can be expected to impose additional overhead costs
on us
and should we fail to adequately meet these legal obligations, we could face potential regulatory action. Regulatory authorities
such such
as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services may also impose functionality standards with regard to electronic prescribing
technologies. technologies.
If implemented, proposals like these could impact our operations, the use of our services and our ability to market new
services, or
could create unexpected liabilities for us. We cannot predict what changes to laws or regulations might be made in the future
or how
those changes could affect our business or our operating costs.
The
conversion of the majority of the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock in March 2025 (the "“Conversion"”) increased the
total number
of outstanding shares, potentially diluting the value of existing common shareholders’ equity.
The
Conversion resulted in the dilution of existing common shareholders’ ownership percentages. This dilution of ownership will

The
Conversion and any subsequent conversions could be perceived negatively by the market, potentially leading to a decline

Political,
economic and regulatory developments have effectedaffected fundamental changes in the healthcare industry. In response to perceived increases
in healthcare costs in recent years, there have been, and continue to be, proposals by the federal government, state governments, regulators,
and third-party payors to control these costs and, more generally, to reform the U.S. health care system. Certain of these proposals
could limit the amounts CareCloud will receive for its products and services. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the “ACA”)
substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both government and private insurers.
The
Company cannot predict at this time the full impact of the ACAACA, or any other legislative changes thereto, other new legislation, the new
current Administration, agency
priorities, rulemaking and healthcare reform measures from U.S. federal or state governments, or third-party
payors that may be adopted
or implemented in the future on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Although several legislative
initiatives to repeal and replace the ACA have been proposed, and legal challenges to the constitutionality
of the ACA or its component parts have been made, the nature and effect of any modification or repeal of, or legislative substitution
for, for,
the ACA, or any court decision regarding the ACA’s validity, is uncertain, and the Company cannot
predict the effect that
any of these events would have on the longer-term viability of the act, or on the Company’s financial condition,
results of operations
or cash flows. However, any changes that create stricter and more costly compliance obligations or lower reimbursement
for the Company’s
customers could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Future significant changes
in the healthcare systems in the United States could also have a negative impact on the demand for the Company’s
current and future

Our
Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 7,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, privileges and other
other terms of these shares, of which 4,526,231984,530 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 1,511,372 of Series B Preferred Stock were outstanding

any further approval of common stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock may be adversely affected by
the rights of future

Currently,
we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to holders of our common stock. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common
stock will be a stockholder’sshareholder’s sole source of gain.
As
a public company, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we assess the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting annually and the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures quarterly. AsFor athe “smalleryear reportingended December 31,

Moreover, if we are not able to stay in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 applicable to us in a timely manner, or if we
or our independent
registered public accounting firm identifies any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that
are deemed to be
material weaknesses, the market price of our stock could decline and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations
by the SEC or
other regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources.
There
are many exemptions available to smaller reporting companies like us that have less than $250 million of worldwide common equity held
by non-affiliates. The disclosures we will be required to provide in our SEC filings are still less than they would be if we were not
considered a smaller reporting company. Specifically, smaller reporting companies are able to provide simplified executive compensation
disclosures in their fillingsfilings and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings. Our status as a smaller reporting
company may make it harder for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects. We cannot predict if investors
will find our common stock less attractive because we will rely on the exemption available to smaller reporting companies. If some investors
find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price
may be more volatile.
As
a result of the Conversion, there may not be an organized trading market for the Series A Preferred Stock.
The
Nasdaq Global Market requires a minimum number of shareholder to maintain a security’s listing on the exchange. Due to the
limited number of Series A Preferred Stock shareholders after the Conversion, this security is likely to be delisted from the Nasdaq
Global Market and there may no longer be an organized market for trading of Series A Preferred Stock.
In
December 2023 we suspended the payment of the dividends on the Preferred Stock. The Company resumed paying monthly dividends in
February February
2025, paying one month of the arrearage.arrearage each month for the rest of the year. The Company has also announced that starting
with the February 2026 dividend payment, it will start paying double dividends monthly on the Series B Preferred Stock to reduce
the dividends in arrears. We may not be able to continue to pay dividends on the Preferred Stock if we fall out of compliance with
with our loan covenants and are prohibited by our bank lender from paying dividends or if we have insufficient cash to make dividend
payments.
Our
ability to pay cash dividends on the Preferred Stock requires us to have either net profits or positive net assets (total assets less
total liabilities), and to be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business. We cannot predict with certainty
whether we will remain in compliance with the covenants of our senior secured lender SVB,Provident, which include, among other things, generatinga
adjustedminimum trailing 12-month debt service coverage ratio and an EBITDA or complying with a minimum liquidity ratio at timesrequirement when we are utilizing our line of credit. If we
fall out of compliance,
our lender may exercise any of its rights and remedies under the loan agreement, including restricting us from making dividend payments.agreement.
Notwithstanding
these factors, during December 2023, the Company suspended the dividends on the Preferred Stock. Although the Company resumed payment
payment of the monthly dividends in February 2025, we may not maintain sufficient cash to continue to pay dividends on the Preferred Stock, including
Stockthe double dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock, and we cannot assure you that our businesses will generate sufficient cash flow
from operations or that future borrowings will
be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to make the Preferred Stock dividend
payments that are currently due or in
arrears and to fund our other liquidity needs. Our ability to pay dividends may again be impaired
if any of the risks described in
this document, including the documents incorporated by reference herein, were to occur. Also, payment
of our dividends depends upon
our financial condition, remaining in compliance with our affirmative and negative loan covenants with SVB,
Provident, which we may be unable
to do in the future, and other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant from time to time.
Our
Series A Preferred Stock ranks pari passu to our Series B Preferred Stock with respect to the distribution of assets upon our liquidation,
dissolution or winding-up of our affairs. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our affairs, our
assets will be available to pay obligations on the Preferred Stock only after all of our indebtedness and other liabilities have been
paid. The rights of holders of the Preferred Stock to participate in the distribution of our assets will rank junior to the prior claims
of our current and future creditors and any future series or class of preferred stock we may issue that ranks senior to the Preferred
Stock. Also, the Preferred Stock effectively ranks junior to all existing and future indebtedness and to the indebtedness and other liabilities
of our existing subsidiaries and any future subsidiaries. Our existing subsidiaries are, and future subsidiaries would be, separate legal
entities and have no legal obligation to pay any amounts to us in respect of dividends due on the Preferred Stock. If we are forced to
liquidate our assets to pay our creditors, we may not have sufficient assets to pay amounts due on any or all of the Preferred Stock
then outstanding. We may in the future incur debt and other obligations that will rank senior to the Preferred Stock. At December 31,
2024,2025, our total liabilities excluding contingent consideration equaled approximately $21.8$27.0 million.
Certain
of our existing or future debt instruments may restrict the authorization, payment or setting apart of dividends on the Preferred Stock.
Our Credit Agreement with SVB restricts the payment of dividends in the event of any event of default, including failure to meet certain
financial covenants. There can be no assurance that we will remain in compliance with the SVBProvident Creditcredit Agreement,agreement, and if we default, we
may be contractually
prohibited from paying dividends on the Preferred Stock. Also, future offerings of debt or senior equity securities
may adversely affect
the market price of the Preferred Stock. If we decide to issue debt or senior equity securities in the future, it
is possible that these
securities will be governed by an indenture or other instruments containing covenants restricting our operating
flexibility. Additionally,
any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges
more favorable than
those of the Preferred Stock and may result in dilution to owners of the Preferred Stock. We and, indirectly, our
shareholders, will
bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in
any future offering
will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount,
timing or nature of
our future offerings. The holders of the Preferred Stock will bear the risk of our future offerings, which may reduce
the market price
of the Preferred Stock and will dilute the value of their holdings.
We
may issue additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock that rank on parity with the Preferred
Stock Stock
as to dividend rights, rights upon liquidation or voting rights.
We
are allowed to issue additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock that would rank equal to
or below
the Preferred Stock as to dividend payments and rights upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs pursuant
to our
amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designations relating to the Preferred Stock without
any vote
of the holders of the Preferred Stock. Upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares
of Preferred
Stock (voting together as a class with all other series of parity preferred stock we may issue upon which like voting rights
have been
conferred and are exercisable), we are allowed to issue additional series of preferred stock that would rank above the Preferred
Stock Stock
as to dividend payments and rights upon our liquidation, dissolution or the winding up of our affairs pursuant to our amended and
restated restated
certificate of incorporation and the certificate of designations relating to the Preferred Stock. The issuance of additional
shares of
Series B Preferred Stock and additional series of preferred stock could have the effect of reducing the amounts available to
the Preferred Stock
upon our liquidation or dissolution or the winding up of our affairs. It also may reduce dividend payments on the
Preferred Stock if
we do not have sufficient funds to pay dividends on all Preferred Stock outstanding and other classes or series of
stock with equal priority
with respect to dividends.

Providers
and Practices Served: As of December 31, 20242025 and December 31, 2023,2024, we provided services to approximately 45,000 and 40,000 providersproviders, respectively,
(which
we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render bills for their
services),
representing approximately 2,900 and 2,600 practices.practices, respectively. In addition, we served approximately 15080 clients who were
not medical practices, but are
service organizations who serve the healthcare community. The foregoing numbers include clients leveraging
any of our products or services
and are based in part upon estimates in cases where the precise number of practices or providers is unknown.
We
earned approximately 1% of our revenue from group purchasing services during boththe years ended December 31, 20242025 and 2023.2024. We earned approximately

This revenue represents fees based on our actual costs plus a percentage of the operating profit and is reported in our Medical Practice
Management segment.
Goodwill
Impairment Charges. Goodwill impairment charges in 2023, which were related to the Healthcare IT reporting unit, represent the impairment
recorded as it was determined that the fair value of the goodwill was less than the carrying value.
LeaseRestructuring
Terminations, Unoccupied Lease Charges and Restructuring Costs. Lease terminations represent the write-off of leasehold improvements
and gains or losses as the result of lease terminations. Unoccupied lease charges represent the portion of lease and related costs for
vacant space not being utilized by the Company. Restructuring costs, primarily consist of severance and separation costs associated with
the optimization of the Company’s
operations and profitability improvements.
Income
Taxes. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we
operate. operate.
This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment
of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and
liabilities. Although the
Company reported GAAP earnings in 2025 and 2024, it has incurred tax losses historically and there is
uncertainty regarding future U.S. taxable income,
which make realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance
with ASC 740. Accordingly, a valuation allowance has
been recorded against all deferred tax assets as of December 31, 20242025 and
December 31, 2023.2024. For the global intangible low-taxed income
(“GILTI”) tax, companies can either account for the GILTI
inclusion in the period in which they are incurred or establish
deferred tax liabilities for the expected future taxes associated
with GILTI. The Company records the GILTI provisions as they are incurred
each period.
Goodwill
is evaluated for impairment annually as of October 31st, referred to as the annual test date. As a result of the annual impairment
test, an impairment of approximately $2 million was recorded in October 2023. The Company also tests for impairment
between annual test
dates if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment
testing for goodwill
is performed at the reporting-unit level. The Company has determined that its business consists of two operating
segments and two reporting
units (Healthcare IT and Medical Practice Management). Application of the goodwill impairment test requires
judgment including the use
of a discounted cash flow approach, the trading price of publicly traded stock and the guideline public company
method. These analyses
require significant assumptions and judgments. These assumptions and judgments include estimation of future cash
flows, which is dependent
on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful
life over which cash flows
will occur, determination of our weighted average cost of capital and the selection of comparable companies
and the interpretation of
their data. Future business and economic conditions, as well as differences in actual financial results related
to any of the assumptions,
could materially impact the consolidated financial statements through impairment of goodwill or intangible
assets and acceleration of
the amortization period of the purchased intangible assets which are finite-lived assets. There was a triggering event at August 31,
2023, but it was determined that there was no impairment. Due to a triggering event in December 2023, an additional impairment test was
performed. As a result, the Company recorded an additional impairment of approximately $40 million. No impairment charges
were recorded
during the yearyears ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.

The use of artificial intelligence by threat actors, and our own development and deployment of AI-enabled products, may increase the risk and potential severity of future cybersecurity incidents.
Advances in AI have lowered the barriers to, and increased the sophistication of, cyberattacks, including AI-generated phishing and social-engineering campaigns, deepfake-enabled impersonation, and automated discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities, and we expect the frequency and sophistication of such attacks to increase. In addition, our own AI solutions, including CareCloud cirrusAI and CareCloud stratusAI, process personally identifiable information and protected health information and rely on third-party models and cloud infrastructure, which may create new attack surfaces and data-handling risks. Although we have implemented and continue to enhance safeguards, we cannot guarantee these measures will prevent future incidents, and any future incident could result in costs, regulatory action, litigation, customer attrition and reputational harm materially greater than those associated with the March 2026 incident.
Geopolitical or economic developments affecting our offshore operations could increase our costs and impair our ability to service client accounts.
As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our business model depends on our offshore operations in Pakistan, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Sri Lanka, where approximately 3,100 of our team members are located and where personnel costs are significantly lower than in the United States. Regional conflicts or the escalation of tensions in or affecting the regions where we operate, trade restrictions, sanctions, changes in diplomatic relations or political stability, currency devaluation or restrictions on the repatriation of funds, infrastructure disruptions, visa or travel restrictions, and local wage inflation could increase our operating costs or impair our ability to deliver services to our clients at current service levels and prices. Because our offshore operations are concentrated in a small number of locations, a disruption affecting any one of them could have a disproportionate impact on our ability to deliver services. If we were required to shift a material portion of this work to the United States or other higher-cost locations, our expenses would increase materially, our margins would decline, and we may be unable to serve client accounts at current service levels or competitive prices.
The
financial markets recentlyhave havefrom time to time encountered volatility associated with concerns about the balance sheets of banks, especially small and
regional banks who may have significant losses associated with investments that make it difficult to fund demands to withdraw deposits
and other liquidity needs. Although the federal government has announced measures to assist these banks and protect depositors, some
banks have already been impacted and others may be materially and adversely impacted. Our business is dependent on bank relationships
and we are proactively monitoring the financial health of such bank relationships. Continued strain on the banking system may adversely
impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The increase was primarily due to a $50,000 deferred income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 related to the amortization of goodwill for tax purposes. There was no deferred tax liability recorded atMarch 31, 2026 orDecember 31, 2025. There were no deferred income taxes for the three months and six months endedMarchJune31, 2026 and30, 2025.
We have not been adversely affected by inflation as typically we receive a percentage of the fees our clients collect from our revenue cycle management services. Additionally, our medical practice management contracts are based on our costs plus a percentage of the medical practice’s operating income. We continue to monitor the impact of inflation in order to minimize its effects through pricing strategies, productivity improvements and cost reductions. In the event of inflation, we believe that we will be able to pass on any price increases for fixed rate contracts to our customers, as the prices that we charge are not governed by long-term contracts.

The
following is a discussion of our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended
June March
31,30, 2026 and 2025, and other factors that are expected to affect our prospective financial condition. The following discussion and
analysis analysis
should be read together with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes beginning on page 4 of this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed
with the SEC on March 12, 2026.
The
Company maintains cash balances at Provident Bank (“Provident”) in excess of the FDIC insurance coverage limits. The Company
performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of Provident to ensure their credit worthiness. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025, the Company held cash of approximately $547,000$1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in the name of its subsidiaries
at at
banks in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The banking systems in these countries do not provide deposit insurance coverage. The Company has
not not
experienced any losses on its cash accounts.
Our
offshore operations in the Pakistan Offices and Sri Lanka together accounted for approximately 17% and 18% of total expenses for boththe
six the three
months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025.2025, respectively. A significant portion of those foreign expenses were personnel-related costs
(approximately 76%
73% and 78%77% for the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively). Because personnel-related costs are
significantly lower in
Pakistan and Sri Lanka than in the U.S. and many other offshore locations, we believe our offshore operations
give us a competitive advantage
over many industry participants. We are able to achieve significant cost reductions and leverage
technology to reduce manual work and
strategically transition a portion of the remaining manual tasks to our highly-specialized,
cost-efficient team in the U.S., the Pakistan
Offices and Sri Lanka. Our offshore operations are subject to geopolitical, economic
and operational risks; see “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form
10-K.

as a percentage of net revenue for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025:
No
tax effect has been provided in computing non-GAAP adjusted net income and non-GAAP adjusted net income per share as the Company has

following table shows our reconciliation of GAAP net income to non-GAAP adjusted net income for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30,
2026 2026
and 2025:
For
purposes of determining non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share, the Company used the number of common shares outstanding at the end of
MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share does not take into account dividends declared or earned on preferred stock.
Providers
and Practices Served: As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, we provided services to approximately 45,00044,000 and 40,000 providers, respectively
respectively (which we define as physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and other clinical staff that render
bills for their
services), representing approximately 2,900 independent medical practices, hospitals and service organizations. The foregoing numbers
include clients leveraging any of our products or services and are based in part upon estimates in cases where the precise number of
practices or providers is unknown.
Revenue:
We primarily derive our revenue from subscription-based technology-enabled business solutions, reported in our Healthcare IT segment,
which are typically billed as a percentage of payments collected by our customers. This fee includes technology-enabled RCM, as well
as the ability to use our EHR, practice management system and other software as part of the bundled fee. These solutions accounted for
approximately 74%75% and 64%69% of revenue for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 74% and 67% of revenue for
the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Other healthcare IT services,
including printing and mailing operations, group
purchasing and professional services, represented approximately 14%13% and 25%19% of revenue
for the three months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and 2025,
respectively, and 14% and 22% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
We
earned approximately 12% and 11% of our revenue from medical practice management services during both the three and six months ended March 31,June
30, 2026
and 2025, respectively. This revenue represents fees based on our actual costs plus a percentage of the operating profit
and is reported
in our Medical Practice Management segment.
Direct
Operating Costs. Direct operating costcosts consistsconsist primarily of salaries and benefits related to personnel who provide services to our
customers, claims processing costs, costs to operate the three managed practices, including facility lease costs, supplies, insurance
and other direct costs related to our services. Costs associated with the implementation of new customers are expensed as incurred. The
reported amounts of direct operating costs do not include depreciation and amortization, which are broken out separately in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations.
Restructuring
Costs. Restructuring costs primarily consistsconsist of severance and separation costs associated with the optimization of the Company’s
operations and profitability improvements.
Income
Taxes. In preparing our condensed consolidated financial statements, we estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which
we operate. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment of items for tax and financial reporting purposes. These differences result in deferred income tax assets and liabilities.
Although the Company has returned to profitability, it incurred losses historically and there is uncertainty regarding sufficient future
U.S. taxable income, which makes realization of a deferred tax asset difficult to support in accordance with ASC 740. Accordingly, a
valuation allowance has been recorded against all deferred tax assets as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
As
of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the carrying amountsamount of internally-developed capitalized software in use was $3.7$2.5 million and
$5.3 million, respectively. The decrease was due to the amortization exceeding the amounts being capitalized.

2026 increased by $283,000
$182,000 or 25%16% and $465,000 or 21% from selling and marketing expense of $1.1 million and $2.2 million for the three
and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025.2025, respectively. The increase for the three and six months
ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 was primarily due to
additional headcount.
General
and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense of $5.5$5.4 million and $10.9 million for the three and six months

costs for the newly purchased aircraft used to support business development and maintain client relationships were $276,000 and
$438,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively.
Research
and Development Expense. Research and development expense of $2.4$2.2 million and $4.6 million for the three and six months ended March 31,June
30, 2026 increased by
approximately $1.2 million or 96%115% and $2.4 million or 104% from research and development expense of $1.2$1.0 million
and $2.3 million for the three monthsand ended March 31, 2025. During
the threesix months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2025, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 the
Company capitalized approximately $820,000$1.6 million and $846,000,$1.7 million, respectively, of development
costs in connection with its internal-use
software. The increase in expense was primarily due to a shift in the nature of development
activities, with fewer costs qualifying for
capitalization as internal-use software, resulting in a greater portion of costs being recognized
as operating expenses in the current
period.
Change
in Contingent Consideration. Change in contingent consideration of $57,000$(34,000) and $23,000 for the three and six months ended March 31,June

expense of $2.8 million and $5.6 million for the three and six months ended
June March30, 31,2025, 2025.respectively. The increase in the expense is due to the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in the recent
acquisitions.
Restructuring
Costs. There were no restructuring costs for the three and six months ended MarchJune 31,30, 2026 as compared to $114,000$23,000 and $137,000 for
the three and six months ended
March 31,June 30, 2025, respectively, which primarily consists of severance and separation costs associated with

timing and scope of client projects, and our timely execution of integration and expense-management initiatives intended to align
our cost structure with those objectives. If these assumptions prove incorrect or these initiatives are delayed or not fully
