EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On March 30, 2023, Reliance Global Group, Inc. (the “Company”) filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Original 2022 10-K”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) is being filed to:

 

  (i) Include the conformed signature of Mazars USA LLP (“Mazars”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, on Mazars’ Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (the “Audit Report”);
  (ii) Revise Part II, Item 9A to indicate that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2022; and
  (iii) Provide current dated certifications.

 

With respect to (i) above, although Mazars delivered to the Company a manually signed copy of the Audit Report, the version of the Original 2022 10-K that was filed with the SEC inadvertently omitted Mazar’s conformed signature on the copy of the Audit Report included in Part II, Item 8 of the 2022 10-K. Therefore, in this Amendment No. 1, Part IV, Item 15 has been replaced in its entirety, solely to include Mazars’ conformed signature on the Audit Report. No changes to the financial statements or notes have been made in Amendment No. 1.

 

With respect to (ii) above, as disclosed by the Company in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on May 18, 2023 with the SEC, on May 12, 2023, subsequent to the filing of the Original 2022 10-K, the Company determined that the following financial statements should be restated and should no longer be relied upon:

 

  (i) The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on May 16, 2022 (the “Q1 2022 10-Q”);
  (ii) The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on August 15, 2022 (the “Q2 2022 10-Q”)
  (iii) The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on November 14, 2022 (the “Q3 2022 10-Q” and collectively with the Q1 2022 10-Q and the Q2 2022 10-Q, the “10-Qs”).

 

Subsequent to the Company’s filing with the SEC of the 10-Qs, the Company performed an evaluation of its accounting in connection with the calculation of its basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS and identified errors in such calculations. The errors resulted from improper application of sequencing rules, a miscalculation of the numerator used in the determination of diluted EPS, and a miscalculation of the denominator used in the determination of weighted average shares outstanding for both basic EPS and diluted EPS, and the Company determined that the errors required adjustments of the previously issued financial statements in the 10-Qs.

 

The Company determined that the reporting effects of the above errors had a material impact to the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements included in the 10-Qs. As a result, the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022, the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were restated, and the Company filed an amendment to each of the 10-Qs with the SEC on May 18, 2023.

 

The Company’s management concluded that in light of the errors mentioned above, a material weakness existed in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022, and the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such dates. The material weakness was disclosed in the amendment to each of the 10-Qs, as filed with the SEC on May 18, 2023, as well as in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on May 18, 2023.

 

Although the Company was not aware of any material weaknesses, as of December 31, 2022, in its internal control over financial reporting and in its disclosure controls and procedures as of the filing date of the Original 2022 10-K, in this Amendment No. 1, the Company is replacing Part II, Item 9A (Controls and Procedures) in its entirety to disclose the existence of such material weaknesses as of December 31, 2022.

 

Amendment No. 1 speaks as of the filing date of the Original 2022 10-K, and does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the filing date of the Original 2022 10-K. Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original 2022 10-K, and Amendment No. 1 does not modify, amend or update in any way revenue, expenses, net income (loss), or any of the financial or other information contained in the Original 2022 10-K. Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Original 2022 10-K and the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The filing of this Amendment No. 1 is not an admission that the Original 2022 10-K, when filed, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement not misleading.

 

 
 

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Controls and Procedure Requirements

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our current chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our “Certifying Officers”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

The Company determined it had a material weakness in its disclosure controls and procedures as it pertains to earnings per share (EPS) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company mitigated this deficiency by consulting with qualified advisors that have in-depth EPS expertise. These advisors will assist the Company in the calculations and disclosures of EPS for future reporting periods.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 14d-14(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting reliability and financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. In making the assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO – 2013) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to the material weakness in disclosure controls and procedures discussed above.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm PCAOB ID 339

 

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Reliance Global Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Reliance Global Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the two years in the period December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period December 31, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matter

 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Impairment Evaluation of Goodwill

 

Critical Audit Matter Description

 

As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was approximately $19 million as of December 31, 2022. Management tests goodwill for impairment on October 1 of each year, or more frequently should an event or a change in circumstances occur that would indicate the carrying value may be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment is recorded equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, up to the amount of goodwill associated with the reporting unit. As a result of management’s assessment, the Company recognized impairment charges of $14.3 million related to goodwill during the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

The principal considerations for our determination that the goodwill impairment assessment was a critical audit matter are that there is significant judgment in selection of the valuation methods to use along with assumptions used to estimate the future revenues and cash flows, including revenue growth rates, operating expenses and cash outflows necessary to support the cash flows, weighted average costs of capital and future market conditions as well as the valuation methodologies applied by the Company. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to managements inputs and selection of methods used. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of auditor employed professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in performing these procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained.

 

How the Critical Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

 

The primary audit procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

 

-Obtaining an understanding over the Company’s process for evaluation whether an event of a change in circumstances occur that would indicate the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired.

 

-Utilizing a firm employed valuation specialist with the skills and knowledge to assist in: (i) evaluating and challenging the reasonableness of the valuation methods selected by management to determine the fair value of the Company, (ii) evaluating management’s significant assumptions by comparing inputs to market data (iii) performing a control premium sensitivity study to determine the impact to market approach, and (iv) performing recalculations of the method utilized by management.

 

-Testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data utilized by management in their evaluation of goodwill impairment.

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2020.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounting of Reliance Global Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Liquidity

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s reported cash and restricted cash aggregated balance was approximately $1,910,000, current assets were approximately $3,265,000, while current liabilities were approximately $7,794,000. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $4,529,000 and stockholders’ equity of approximately $8,911,039. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reported net income of approximately $6,466,162, which includes a non-cash goodwill impairment of approximately $14,373,000, offset by a non-cash, non-operating measurement gain on the warrant commitment of approximately $29,065,000. The Company reported negative cash flows from operations of approximately $3,190,000. The Company completed a capital offering in February 2021 and January 2022 that raised net proceeds of approximately $10,496,000 and $17,853,000, respectively. As noted in Note 17 - Subsequent Events, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement which closed on March 16, 2023, the Company received funds net of transaction costs of approximately $3,446,000, to be used primarily for working capital.

 

Management believes the company’s financial position and continued ability to raise capital to be reasonable and sufficient. Based on our assessment, we do not believe there are any conditions or events that, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Cash and Restricted Cash

 

Cash consists of checking accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Restricted cash includes cash pledged as collateral to secure obligations and/or all cash whose use is otherwise limited by contractual provisions.

 

At times, some cash balances held in banks may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, standard deposit insurance limit of $250,000.

 

F-8
 

 

The reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported within the applicable balance sheet accounts that sum to the total of cash and restricted cash presented in the statement of cash flows is as follows:

 

  

December 31,

2022

  

December 31,

2021

 
Cash  $505,410   $4,136,180 
Restricted cash   1,404,359    484,542 
Total cash and restricted cash  $1,909,769   $4,620,722 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset’s estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Certain capitalized software has been reclassified in the consolidated balance sheet from property and equipment, net to intangibles, net and comparative periods have been adjusted accordingly. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property and Equipment are as follows:

 

   Useful Life (in years)
Computer equipment  5
Office equipment and furniture  7
Leasehold improvements  Shorter of the useful life or the lease term

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting guidance includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which include management’s own assumption about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.

 

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively, the Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments, including cash, notes receivables, accounts payable, and short and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The carrying amounts of long-term debt approximate their fair value as the variable interest rates are based on a market index.

 

Warrant Liabilities: The Company’s warrant liabilities (see Note 9, Warrant Liabilities) represent liability-classified derivative financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the Warrant Liabilities includes significant inputs unobservable in the market and thus are considered Level 3. The Company measured the fair value of the warrant liabilities at the issuance date, December 22, 2022, and subsequently at the balance sheet date, using a binomial option pricing model. The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs, not accounting for the Reverse Split-2023:

2021

 
Stock price  $0.57   $6.44

*Recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities per income statement is $29,064,958. The difference of $3,672,624 is made up of the Warrant issuance costs.

 

Earn-out liabilities: The Company generally values its Level 3 earn-out liabilities using the income valuation approach. Key valuation inputs include contingent payment arrangement terms, projected revenues and cash flows, rate of return, and probability assessments. The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements:

 

   December 31, 2022  December 31, 2021
Valuation technique  Discounted cash flow  Discounted cash flow
Significant unobservable input  Projected revenue and probability of achievement  Projected revenue and probability of achievement

 

The Company values its Level 3 earn-out liability related to the Barra Acquisition using a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework (a special case of the Income Approach). The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs:

 

  

December 31,

2022

 
WACC Risk Premium:   14.0%
Volatility   50.0%
Credit Spread:   7.7%
Payment Delay (days)   90
Risk free rate   USD Yield Curve 
Discounting Convention:   Mid-period 
Number of Iterations   100,000 

 

Undiscounted remaining earn out payments are approximately $2,967,592 as of December 31, 2022. The following table reconciles fair value of earn-out liabilities for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Deferred Financing Costs

 

The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities. These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, unamortized deferred financing costs were $313,829, and $134,528, respectively and are netted against the related debt.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration such as earn-outs, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date. The Company remeasures fair value as of each reporting date and changes resulting from events after the acquisition date, are recognized as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value and accretion costs are recognized in earnings.

 

Identifiable Intangible Assets, net

 

Finite-lived intangible assets such as customer relationships assets, trademarks and tradenames are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally on a straight-line basis for periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of intangible assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value. No impairment was recognized during the periods presented.

 

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles

 

The Company records goodwill when the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned on the acquisition date and tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has more likely than not declined below its carrying value. Similarly, indefinite-lived intangible assets (if any) other than goodwill are tested annually or more frequently if indicated, for impairment. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on the expected discounted cash flows.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates issued financial instruments for classification as either equity or liability based on an assessment of the financial instrument’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the financial instruments issued are freestanding pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and, if applicable whether the financial instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the financial instruments are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the financial instruments are outstanding. Financial instruments that are determined to be liabilities under ASC 480 or ASC 815 are held at their initial fair value and remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded as a non-operating, non-cash loss or gain, as applicable.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the securities purchase agreement as discussed in Note 9, Warrant Liabilities. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. Upon the determination that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers which at its core, recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company’s revenue is primarily comprised of agency commissions earned from insurance carriers (the “Customer” or “Carrier”) related to insurance plans produced through brokering, producing and servicing agreements between insurance carriers and members. The Company defines a “Member” as an individual, family or entity currently covered or seeking insurance coverage.

 

The Company focuses primarily on agency services for insurance products in the “Healthcare” and property and casualty, which includes auto (collectively “P&C”) space, with nominal activity in the life insurance and bond sectors. Healthcare includes plans for individuals and families, Medicare supplements, ancillary and small businesses. The Company also earns revenue in the “Insurance Marketing” space as discussed further below.

 

Consideration for all agency services typically is based on commissions calculated by applying contractual commission rates to policy premiums. For P&C, commission rates are applied to premiums due, whereas for healthcare, commission rates, including override commissions, are applied to monthly premiums received by the Carrier.

 

The Company has two forms of billing practices, “Direct Bill” and “Agency Bill”. With Direct Bill, Carriers bill and collect policy premium payments directly from Members without any involvement from the Company. Commissions are paid to the Company by the Carrier in the following month. With Agency Bill, the Company bills Members premiums due and remits them to Carriers net of commission earned.

 

The following outlines the core principles of ASC 606:

 

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.

 

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

 

Determination of the transaction price. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer.

 

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis.

 

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company satisfies performance obligations either over time or at a point in time, as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.

 

F-12
 

 

Healthcare revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Carriers, to perform agency services that culminate in monthly premium cash collections by the Carrier. The performance obligation is satisfied through a combination of agency services including, marketing carrier’s insurance plans, soliciting Member applications, binding, executing and servicing insurance policies on a continuous basis throughout a policy’s life cycle which includes and culminates with the Customer’s collection of monthly premiums. No commission is earned if cash is not received by Carrier. Thus, commission revenue is earned only after a month’s cash receipts from Members’ dues is received by the Customer. Each month’s Carrier cash collections is considered a separate unit sold and transferred to the Customer i.e., the satisfaction of that month’s performance obligation.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on a commission rate applied to Member premiums paid and received by Carrier. The Company generally continues to receive commission payments from Carriers until a Member’s plan is cancelled or the Company terminates its agency agreement with the Carrier. Upon termination, the Company normally will no longer receive any commissions from Carriers even on business still in place. In some instances, trailing commissions could occur which would be recognized similar to other Healthcare revenue. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

Healthcare typically utilizes the Direct Bill method.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time, when it satisfies its monthly performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when Member insurance premium cash payments are received by the Customer. The Customer’s receipt of cash is the culmination and complete satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation, and the earnings process is complete.

 

With Direct Bill, since the amount of monthly Customer cash receipts is unknown to the Company until the following month when notice is provided by Customer to Company, the Company accrues revenue at each period end. Any estimated revenue accrued and recognized at a period-end is trued up for financial reporting per actual revenue earned as provided by the Customer during the following month.

 

P&C revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Customers, to perform agency services to solicit, receive proposals and bind insurance policies culminating with policy placement. Commission revenue is earned at the time of policy placement.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on commission rates applied to Member premiums due. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

P&C utilizes both the Agency Bill and Direct Bill methods, depending on the Carrier.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when the policy placement process is complete.

 

With both Direct Bill and Agency Bill, the Company accrues commission revenue in the period policies are placed. With Agency Bill, payment is typically received from Members in the month earned, however with Direct Bill, payment is typically received from Carriers in the month subsequent to the commissions being earned.

 

F-13
 

 

Insurance Marketing revenue recognition:

 

Medigap, a consolidated wholly owned subsidiary of the Company earns commission revenue by selling bound insurance policies with all renewal rights to insurance marketing organizations (the “IM Customer”). The IM Customers utilize innovative actuarial models to value and price policies purchased based on future projections. IM Customers pay a one-time commission per policy purchased to selling agencies based on a pre-agreed formula outlined in the parties’ contractual agreement. Commission payments are subject to chargeback in the event a policy is cancelled or lapses within 3 months of a policy’s effective date or until the first three payments are received from the insured party, depending on the IM Customer Contract.

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement to sell issued insurance policies to the IM Customer.

 

There is one performance obligation in IM Customer contracts, to sell the rights in Company procured issued insurance policies to the IM Customer. The performance obligation is satisfied when the rights to an issued policy have been transferred to the IM Customer.

 

Transaction price is stated in a contract and is a set range of commission amounts based on each policy sold. There are two variable components to consideration received:

 

  a) Commissions are only earned once a policy is “Placed”, defined as, an active policy sold to the IM Customer where the IM Customer has received the initial insurance carrier payment with respect to such policy. The Company requires end-user insured parties to pay the initial premium to the insurance carrier upon issuance of a policy. Insurance carrier in turn pays IM Customer its initial payment soon thereafter. Thus, upon sale of an issued policy to IM Customer, the Company has provided a bound issued policy and ensured first premium payment has been completed by insured party. This results in virtual assurance that the IM Customer will receive its initial insurance carrier payment, and it is more than probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. The Company thus considers all policies sold to the IM Customer to be Placed for revenue recognition purposes.
     
  b) Commission revenue is subject to chargeback in full if a policy is cancelled or lapses within three months from the policy effective date or if the insured party does not make the first three payments of the policy. The Company uses historical activity as well as current factors to estimate the unconstrained variable consideration for recognition per the expected value method. A chargeback reserve liability is credited for the difference between cash consideration received and variable consideration recognized. At each reporting period, the Company remeasures the chargeback reserve liability and recognizes any change as an increase or decrease to the then current period revenue. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the chargeback reserve liability was $1,585,435 and $0, respectively.

 

With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of an insurance policy transfers to the IM Customer. Transfer of control occurs when the Company submits the Policy to the IM Customer.

 

IM Customers generally pay the Company weekly, and accruals are recorded as necessary at period end.

 

Other revenue policies: Insurance commissions earned from Carriers for life insurance products are recorded gross of amounts due to agents, with a corresponding commission expense for downstream agent commissions being recorded as commission expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

F-14
 

 

When applicable, commission revenue is recognized net of any deductions for estimated commission adjustments due to lapses, policy cancellations, and revisions in coverage.

 

The Company could earn additional revenue from contingent commissions, profit-sharing, override and bonuses based on meeting certain revenue or profit targets established periodically by the Carriers (collectively, “Contingent Commissions”). Contingent Commissions are earned when the Company achieves targets established by Carriers. The Carriers notify the Company when it has achieved the target. The Company recognizes revenue for any Contingent Commissions at the time it is reasonably assured that a significant revenue reversal is not probable, which is generally when a Carrier notifies the Company that it is on track or has earned a Contingent Commission.

 

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by line of business, showing commissions earned:

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs for the Company’s administrative functions, professional service fees, office rent, all employee travel expenses, and other general costs.

 

Marketing and Advertising

 

The Company’s direct channel expenses primarily consist of costs for e-mail marketing and newspaper advertisements. The Company’s online advertising channel expense primarily consist of social media ads. Advertising costs for both direct and online channels are expensed as incurred.

 

F-15
 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, based on the terms of the awards. The fair value of the stock-based payments to nonemployees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date, unless there is a contractual term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the contractual term. To the extent possible, the Company will estimate and recognize expected forfeitures.

 

Leases

 

The Company recognizes leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842” or “ASU 2016-12”). This standard provides enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. Expenses associated with leases are recognized as a single lease expense, generally on a straight-line basis.

 

The Company is the lessee in a contract when the Company obtains the right to use an asset. We currently lease real estate and office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. When applicable, consideration in a contract is allocated between lease and non-lease components. Lease payments are discounted using the implicit discount rate in the lease. If the implicit discount rate for the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. The Company did not have any contracts accounted for as finance leases as of December 31, 2022, or 2021. Operating leases are included in the line items right-of-use assets, current portion of leases payable, and leases payable, less current portion in the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company determines a lease’s term by agreement with lessor and includes lease extension options and variable lease payments when option and/or variable payments are reasonably certain of being exercised or paid.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating its ability to recover deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction in which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the expected reversals of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, taxable income available via carryback to prior years, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including scheduling the reversal of its deferred tax assets and liabilities, to determine the amount of valuation allowance needed. Scheduling the reversal of deferred tax asset and liability balances requires judgment and estimation. The Company believes the deferred tax liabilities relied upon as future taxable income in its assessment will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets that will be realized.

 

Seasonality

 

A greater number of the Company’s Medicare-related health insurance plans are sold in the fourth quarter during the Medicare annual enrollment period when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage. The majority of the Company’s individual and family health insurance plans are sold in the annual open enrollment period as defined under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and related amendments in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Individuals and families generally are not able to purchase individual and family health insurance outside of these open enrollment periods, unless they qualify for a special enrollment period as a result of certain qualifying events, such as losing employer-sponsored health insurance or moving to another state.

 

Prior Period Adjustments

 

The Company identified certain immaterial adjustments impacting the prior reporting period. Specifically, the Company identified adjustments to correct certain asset and equity accounts in relation to historical purchase price allocation accounting and adjustments to true up retained earnings for certain historical accrued revenues.

 

F-16
 

 

The Company assessed the materiality of the adjustments to prior period financial statements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. (SAB) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, and ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

 

Accordingly, the Company’s comparative consolidated financial statements and impacted notes have been revised from amounts previously reported to reflect these adjustments. The following table illustrates the impact on previously reported amounts and adjusted balances presented in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments carried at amortized cost, such as accounts receivable, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financing Instruments—Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of FASB ASC Topic 326 for certain small public companies and other private companies. As amended, the effective date of ASC Topic 326 was delayed until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and simplifies other areas of the existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this pronouncement January 1, 2021 which did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which amends ASC 805 to require an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in accordance with ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) as if the entity had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

J.P. Kush and Associates, Inc. Transaction

 

On May 1, 2021, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with J.P. Kush and Associates, Inc. whereby we purchased the business and certain assets noted within the Purchase Agreement (the “Kush Acquisition”) for a total purchase price of $3,644,166. The purchase price was paid with a cash payment of $1,900,000, $50,000 in restricted shares of our common stock, in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and an earn-out payment.

 

The Kush Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method under the guidance in ASC 805-10 and 805-20. Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to intangible assets acquired based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.

 

F-18
 

 

The allocation of the purchase price in connection with the Kush Acquisition was calculated as follows:

 

Description  Fair Value  

Weighted Average Useful Life

(Years)

Accounts receivable  $291,414    
Trade name and trademarks   685,400   5
Customer relationships   551,000   10
Non-competition agreements   827,800   5
Goodwill   1,288,552   Indefinite
   $3,644,166    

 

Trade name and trademarks was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 5.85% and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Customer relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Non-competition agreements were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Goodwill of $1,288,552 arising from the Kush Acquisition consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued. Goodwill recognized pursuant to the Kush Acquisition is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total acquisition costs for the Kush Acquisition incurred were $58,092 recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses. The approximate revenue and net profit for the acquired business as a standalone entity per ASC 805 from January 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021 was $500,000 and $219,097, respectively.

Medigap Healthcare Insurance Agency, LLC Transaction

 

On January 10, 2022, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, dated December 21, 2021, we completed the acquisition of all of the assets of Medigap Healthcare Insurance Company, LLC (“Medigap”) for a purchase price of $20,096,250 consisting of: (i) payment to Medigap of $18,138,750 in cash and (ii) the issuance to Medigap of 40,402 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustment to reconcile certain pre-closing credits and liabilities of the parties. The shares issued to Medigap as part of the purchase price are subject to lock up arrangements pursuant to which 50% of the shares may be sold after the one-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction and the balance of the shares may be sold after the second-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction.

 

The acquisition of Medigap was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method under the guidance in ASC 805-10 and 805-20. Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to intangible assets acquired based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.

 

The allocation of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of Medigap was calculated as follows:

 

Description  Fair Value   Weighted Average
Useful Life
(Years)
Property, plant and equipment  $20,666   6
Right-of-use asset   317,787    
Trade name and trademarks   340,000   15
Customer relationships   4,550,000   12
Technology   67,000   3
Backlog   210,000   1

Lease liability   (317,787)   
Goodwill   19,199,008   Indefinite
   $22,902,201    

 

Trade name was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

Customer relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

F-19
 

 

Technology was measured at fair value using the cost replacement method of the cost approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of cost to replace, an obsolescence rate of 40.3%.

 

The value assigned to backlog acquired was estimated based upon the contractual nature of the backlog as of the acquisition date, using the income approach to discount back to present value the cash flows attributable to the backlog, using a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

Goodwill of $19,199,008 arising from the acquisition of Medigap consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued.

Barra & Associates, LLC Transaction

 

On April 26, 2022, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”) with Barra & Associates, LLC (“Barra”) pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets of Barra & Associates, LLC on April 26, 2022 for a purchase price in the amount of $7,725,000 in cash, with $6,000,000 paid to Barra at closing, $1,125,000 payable in nine months from closing, and a final earnout of $600,000 payable over two years from closing based upon meeting stated milestones. The APA contains standard, commercial representations and warranties and covenants. The source of the cash payment was $6,520,000 in funds borrowed from Oak Street Lending (“Loan”), our existing lender pursuant to a Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Promissory Note, of even date. The purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustment to reconcile certain pre-closing credits and liabilities of the parties.

 

The acquisition of Barra was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method pursuant to FASB Topic No. 805, Business Combination (ASC 805). Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.

 

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of Medigap was calculated as follows:

 

Description  Fair Value  

Weighted

Average Useful

Life (Years)

Acquired accounts receivable  $92,585    
Property, plant and equipment   8,593   7
Right-of-use asset   122,984    
Trade names   22,000   4
Customer relationships   550,000   10
Developed technology   230,000   5
Agency relationships   2,585,000   10
Lease liability   (122,984)   
Goodwill   4,236,822   Indefinite
   $7,725,000    

 

F-20
 

 

Trade name was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 19.5%.

 

Customer and Agency relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 19.5%.

 

Developed technology was measured at fair value using the cost replacement method of the cost approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of cost to replace, an obsolescence rate of 28.6%.

 

Goodwill of $4,236,822 arising from the acquisition of Barra consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued. Goodwill recognized pursuant to the acquisition of Barra is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total acquisition costs incurred through December 31, 2022 for the acquisition of Barra were $72,793 recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses.

 

The approximate revenue and net profit or loss for the acquired business as a standalone entity per ASC 805 from April 26, 2022 to December 31, 2022 was $1,090,023 and a loss of $(393,708), respectively.

NOTE 4. INVESTMENT IN NSURE, INC.

 

On February 19, 2020, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with NSURE, Inc. (“NSURE”), which was further amended on October 8, 2020, and as amended provides that the Company may invest up to an aggregate of $5,700,000 in NSURE to be funded in three tranches. In exchange, the Company will receive a total of 928,343 shares of NSURE’s Class A Common Stock.

 

During the course of calendar year 2020 and by October 8, 2020, the Company funded the first tranche, $1,350,000 in exchange for 394,029 shares. The second tranche allowed the Company to acquire an additional 209,075 shares at a price of $6.457 per share by no later than December 30, 2020. The third full tranche allowed the Company to purchase an additional 325,239 shares at a purchase price of $9.224 after December 20, 2020, but no later than March 31, 2021.

 

The Company did not fund tranches two and three in the required timeframes, thus, the Company relinquished its rights under the contract to any additional NSURE shares aside for the ones already acquired with tranche one.

 

During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 131,345 of its NSURE shares to unaffiliated third parties, receiving cash proceeds of $450,000. The Company’s remaining NSURE share balance as of December 31, 2022 is 262,684.

 

The Company measures the NSURE shares subsequent to acquisition in accordance with ASC 321-10-35-2, at cost less impairment since no readily determinable fair value is available to the Company. The investment is reviewed for impairment at each reporting period by qualitatively assessing any indicators demonstrating fair value of the investment is less than carrying value. The Company did not observe any price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar assets for the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. ASC 321-10-50-4 further requires an entity to disclose unrealized gains and losses for periods that relate to equity securities held at a reporting date. To date, the Company has not recognized any unrealized gains or losses on the NSURE security.

 

In accordance with ACS 321-10-35-3, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine if the investment may be impaired. After considering the indicators contained in ASC 321-10-35-3a –3e, the Company determined that the investment was not impaired.

NOTE 6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

In accordance with ASC 350-20-35-45, all the Company’s goodwill is assigned to a single operating and reporting unit. All of the acquisitions made by the Company are in one general insurance agency industry and operate in a very similar economic and regulatory environment. The Company has one executive who is responsible for the operations of the insurance agencies. This executive reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the CEO who is responsible for the strategic direction of the Company reviews the operations of the insurance agency business collectively, as opposed to office by office.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, due to a declining market cap, the Company performed a goodwill impairment test utilizing the Market Approach – Traded Market Value Method, concluding that the Company’s fair value and resultant net assets, implied a goodwill balance of $19.1 million vs. our goodwill balance prior to write-down of $33.4 million. Thus, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $14,373,374 presented in the Statements of Operations as goodwill impairment for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company assessed goodwill in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3, analyzing the relevant qualitative factors. The Company noted that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, thus determining that the two-step goodwill impairment test was not required. Pursuant to the qualitative assessment, the Company concluded that goodwill was not impaired as of and for the year ended December and 2021.

 

The following table rolls forward the Company’s goodwill balance for the periods ending December 31, 2022 and 2021.

NOTE 9. WARRANT LIABILITIES

 

Series B Warrants

 

On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (SPA) with several institutional buyers for the purchase and sale of (i) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 651,997 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.086 per share at an exercise price of $61.35 per share, (ii) an aggregate of 178,060 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 9,076 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.086 per share, with a stated value of $1,000 per share, initially convertible into an aggregate of 147,939 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $61.35 per share, each a freestanding financial instrument, (the “Private Placement”). The aggregate purchase price for the Common Shares, the Preferred Shares and the Warrants was approximately $20,000,000.

 

By entering into the Private Placement on December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a commitment to issue the Common Shares, Preferred Shares and Series B Warrants on the Initial Closing Date for a fixed price and exercise price, as applicable. The commitment to issue Series B Warrants (the “Warrant Commitment”) represents a derivative financial instrument, other than an outstanding share, that, at inception, has both of the following characteristics: (i) embodies a conditional obligation indexed to the Company’s equity. The Company classified the commitment to issue the warrants as a derivative liability because it represents a written option that does not qualify for equity accounting The Company initially measured the derivative liability at its fair value and will subsequently remeasure the derivative liability, at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. An option pricing model was utilized to calculate the fair value of the Warrant Commitment. The Company initially recorded $17,408,311 of non-operating unrealized losses within the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The Private Placement closed on January 4, 2022, at which time the Company remeasured the derivative liability for the warrants issued in the transaction, recognizing $17,408,311 of non-operating unrealized losses and a derivative liability of $55,061,119. The closing of the Private Placement settled the subscription receivable reported on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, due to a non-Private Placement related dilutive share issuance, effective December 27, 2022, the Series B Warrants outstanding increased to 1,333,333 and the exercise price reset to $7.50. On December 27, 2022, 1,667 Series B Warrants were exercised into 1,667 shares of common stock with cash proceeds to the Company of $12,500. As of December 31, 2022, there remains 1,331,667 Series B Warrants outstanding.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net fair value (gains) and losses recognized for the Series B Warrants were, ($48,668,869) and $0 respectively, presented in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations. The Series B Warrant liability outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is $6,384,250 and $0 respectively, presented in the warrant liability account on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Placement Agent Warrants

 

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued 16,303 warrants to the placement agent for the Private Placement. The warrants were issued as compensation for the Placement Agent’s services. The Placement Agent Warrants (PAW) are: (i) exercisable on any day after the six (6) month anniversary of the issue date, (ii) expire five years after the closing of the Private Placement, and (iii) exercisable at $61.35 per share. The Placement Agent Warrants contain terms that may require the Company to transfer assets to settle the warrants. Therefore, the Placement Agent Warrants are classified as a derivative liability, initially measured at fair value of $1,525,923 on the date of issuance and will be remeasured each accounting period with the changes in fair value reported in earnings. The Placement Agent Warrants are considered financing expense fees paid to the Placement Agent in relation to a derivative liability measured at fair value, thus, are included along with non-operating unrealized gains and losses in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net fair value (gains) and losses recognized for the PAW were, ($1,477,024) and $0 respectively, presented in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations. The PAW liability outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is $48,900 and $0 respectively, presented in the warrant liability account on the consolidated balance sheets.

Equity Incentive Plan

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company adopted the Reliance Global Group, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) under which various forms of equity awards can be granted to employees, directors, consultants, and service providers. Awards include but are not limited to, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and stock options. A total of 46,667 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Plan, and as of December 31, 2022, 32,391 shares remain available for issuance. With regards to options, the Company issues new shares of common stock from the shares reserved under the Plan upon exercise of options.

 

The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board is authorized to select from among eligible employees, directors, and service providers those individuals to whom shares and options are to be granted and to determine the number of shares to be subject to, and the terms and conditions of the options. The Board is also authorized to prescribe, amend, and rescind terms relating to options granted under the Plan. Generally, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan or any shares and options granted hereunder is within the discretion of the Board.

 

Stock Options:

 

The Plan provides that options may or may not be Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Only employees of the Company are eligible to receive ISOs, while employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and service providers are eligible to receive options which are not ISOs, i.e. “Non-Statutory Stock Options.” The options granted by the Board in connection with its adoption of the Plan were Non-Statutory Stock Options.

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the value of the services provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Black-Scholes option pricing model takes into account, as of the grant date, the exercise price and expected life of the option, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, various employee terminations occurred resulting in option forfeitures of $0 and $70,004 respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the options granted and outstanding had a total fair value of $2,421,960, which will be amortized in future periods through February 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized $178,579 of compensation expense relating to the stock options granted to employees, directors, and consultants. As of December 31, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense totaled $17,166 which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or requisite service period through February 2024.

 

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value and the exercise price of the shares on December 31, 2022. The market value as of December 31, 2022 was $8.55 based on the closing bid price for December 31, 2022.

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company determined that the options granted and outstanding had a total fair value of $2,421,960, which will be amortized in future periods through February 2024.

As of December 31, 2021, unrecognized compensation expense totaled $195,746 which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or requisite service period through February 2024.

 

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value and the exercise price of the shares on December 31, 2021. The market value as of December 31, 2021 was $96.60 based on the closing bid price for December 31, 2021.

 

The Company estimated the fair value of each stock option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Black-Scholes option-pricing models require the Company to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, recipient exercise behavior, and dividend yield. The Company estimated the future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option. The expected term of the options was computed by taking the mid-point between the vesting date and expiration date. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, not accounting for the reverse splits:

 SCHEDULE OF ASSUMPTION OF BLACK-SCHOLES OPTION PRICING MODEL

   Year Ended
December 31, 2022
   Year Ended

NOTE 12. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

 

If there is a loss from operations, diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as basic EPS is computed. Similarly, if the Company has net income but its preferred dividend adjustment made in computing income available to common stockholders results in a net loss available to common stockholders, diluted EPS would be computed in the same manner as basic EPS.

 

The following calculates basic and diluted EPS:

 

   2022   2021 
   For the Years Ended December 31, 
   2022   2021 
Net income (loss)  $6,466,162   $(21,098,465)
Deemed dividend   (6,930,335)   - 
Net loss  $(464,173)  $(21,098,465)
           
Weighted average common shares   1,094,781    673,137 
Effect of weighted average vested stock awards   208    - 
Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding   1,094,989    673,137 
Basic and diluted loss per common share:  $(0.42)  $(31.34)

 

Additionally, the following are considered anti-dilutive securities excluded from weighted-average shares used to calculate diluted net loss per common share:

 

   2022   2021 
   For the years ended December 31, 
   2022   2021 
Shares subject to outstanding common stock options   10,928    10,928 
Shares subject to outstanding Series A warrants   113,000    - 
Shares subject to outstanding Series B Warrants and PAW   1,347,970    - 
Shares subject to unvested stock awards   6,576    -

NOTE 13. LEASES

 

Operating Leases

 

ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. The standard requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the inception of the lease, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Company’s leases consist of operating leases on buildings and office space.

 

In accordance with ASU 2016-02, right-of-use assets are amortized over the life of the underlying leases. Lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $598,422 and $307,773 respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rates for the operating leases were 3.82 years and 5.67% and 5.28 years and 5.83% respectively.

 

Future minimum lease payment under these operating leases consisted of the following:

 

     
Year ending December 31,  Operating Lease
Obligations
 
2023  $570,275 
2024   269,908

2027   117,150 
Thereafter   151,053 
Total undiscounted operating lease payments   1,366,248

Present value of operating lease liabilities  $1,232,122 

 

NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Legal Contingencies

 

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, arising in the ordinary course of business.

COVID-19 pandemic contingencies

 

The spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the United States has resulted in economic uncertainties which may negatively impact the Company’s business operations. While the disruption is expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty surrounding the duration and extent of the impact.

 

Adverse events such as health-related concerns about working in our offices, the inability to travel and other matters affecting the general work environment could harm our business and our business strategy. While we do not anticipate any material impact to our business operations as a result of the coronavirus, in the event of a major disruption caused by the outbreak of pandemic diseases such as coronavirus, we may lose the services of our employees or experience system interruptions, which could lead to diminishment of our business operations. Any of the foregoing could harm our business and delay the implementation of our business strategy and we cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current global health crisis and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.

 

Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, industry and workforce.

The Company has approximately $19,784,000 of Federal Net Operating Loss Carry forwards, of which $1.3 million will begin to expire beginning 2031 and $18.5 million will not expire but are limited to use of 80% of current year taxable income.

 

The Company has approximately $15,264,000 of state net operation loss carry forward to offset future taxable income in the states in which it currently operates. These carryforwards start expiring in 2029.

 

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits the ability to utilize net operating losses if a 50% change in ownership occurs over a three-year period. Such limitation of the net operating losses may have occurred, but we have not analyzed it at this time as the deferred tax asset is fully reserved.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the valuation allowance increased $3,140,780 and $742,884, respectively.

 

The tax periods ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 are open for examination.

NOTE 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors promoted its then-current Chief Accounting Officer, Joel Markovits, to the position of Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the promotion letter entered into by the Company and Mr. Markovits on December 28, 2022, Mr. Markovits will receive an annual base salary of $275,000. Mr. Markovits was also granted 40,000 shares, per annum, of the Company’s common stock, with an effective grant date of December 28, 2022, which will vest monthly each year during the duration of his employment.

 

As previously disclosed, the Company issued a promissory note to YES Americana Group, LLC (“Americana”), a related party entity, for the principal sum of $1,500,000 (the “Note”). On February 7, 2023, the Company and Americana entered into an amendment to the Note pursuant to which (i) the principal amount of the Note was increased to $1,845,000 as a result of Americana’s funding of an additional $345,000 to the Company during the period of January 23, 2023 through February 2, 2023, (ii) the maturity date of the Note was amended to January 15, 2026, (iii) the interest rate under the Note shall not increase after the maturity date, and (iv) the Note can be converted at any time, at the option of Americana, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.086 per share (the “Common Stock”). The conversion price under the Note is equal to the Nasdaq minimum price, which is the lower of: (i) the closing price of the Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of the Amendment; or (ii) the average closing price of the Common Stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the Amendment. On February 13, 2023, Americana effectuated a conversion of $645,000 of the Note into 1,001,148 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.086 par value per share, in accordance with the terms of the Amendment.

 

On February 23, 2023, pursuant to authority granted by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company implemented a 1-for-15 reverse split of the Company’s authorized and issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Split-2023”). The par value remains unchanged. All share and per share information as well as common stock and additional paid-in capital have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split-2023 for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated.

 

On March 13, 2023, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with one institutional buyer for the purchase and sale of, subject to customary closing conditions, (i) an aggregate of 155,038 shares (the “Common Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.086 per share (the “Common Stock”) along with accompanying common warrants (the “Common Units”), (ii) prefunded warrants (the “Prefunded Warrants”) that are exercisable into 897,594 shares of Common Stock (the “Prefunded Warrant Shares”) along with accompanying common warrants (the “Pre-Funded Units”), and (iii) common warrants (the “Common Warrants”) to initially acquire up to 2,105,264 shares of Common Stock (the “Common Warrant Shares”) (representing 200% of the Common Shares and Prefunded Warrant Shares) in a private placement offering (the “Private Placement”). Additionally, the Company agreed to issue a warrant to the Placement Agent (defined below), to initially acquire 52,632 shares of common stock (the “PA Warrant”). The closing of the Private Placement occurred on March 16, 2023. EF Hutton, a division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (the “Placement Agent”) acted as the sole placement agent for the Company in connection with the Private Placement. Pursuant to that certain Engagement Letter, dated as of January 30, 2023, between the Company and the Placement Agent, the Placement Agent is entitled to a cash fee of 8% of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement and the reimbursement of certain Placement Agent fees and expenses, including, but not limited to, up to $95,000 for fees and expenses including “road show”, diligence, and reasonable legal fees and disbursements for the Placement Agent’s counsel.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounting of Reliance Global Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Liquidity

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s reported cash and restricted cash aggregated balance was approximately $1,910,000, current assets were approximately $3,265,000, while current liabilities were approximately $7,794,000. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $4,529,000 and stockholders’ equity of approximately $8,911,039. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reported net income of approximately $6,466,162, which includes a non-cash goodwill impairment of approximately $14,373,000, offset by a non-cash, non-operating measurement gain on the warrant commitment of approximately $29,065,000. The Company reported negative cash flows from operations of approximately $3,190,000. The Company completed a capital offering in February 2021 and January 2022 that raised net proceeds of approximately $10,496,000 and $17,853,000, respectively. As noted in Note 17 - Subsequent Events, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement which closed on March 16, 2023, the Company received funds net of transaction costs of approximately $3,446,000, to be used primarily for working capital.

 

Management believes the company’s financial position and continued ability to raise capital to be reasonable and sufficient. Based on our assessment, we do not believe there are any conditions or events that, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Cash and Restricted Cash

 

Cash consists of checking accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Restricted cash includes cash pledged as collateral to secure obligations and/or all cash whose use is otherwise limited by contractual provisions.

 

At times, some cash balances held in banks may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, standard deposit insurance limit of $250,000.

 

 

The reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported within the applicable balance sheet accounts that sum to the total of cash and restricted cash presented in the statement of cash flows is as follows:

 

  

December 31,

2022

  

December 31,

2021

 
Cash  $505,410   $4,136,180 
Restricted cash   1,404,359    484,542 
Total cash and restricted cash  $1,909,769   $4,620,722 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset’s estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Certain capitalized software has been reclassified in the consolidated balance sheet from property and equipment, net to intangibles, net and comparative periods have been adjusted accordingly. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property and Equipment are as follows:

 

   Useful Life (in years)
Computer equipment  5
Office equipment and furniture  7
Leasehold improvements  Shorter of the useful life or the lease term

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting guidance includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which include management’s own assumption about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.

 

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively, the Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments, including cash, notes receivables, accounts payable, and short and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The carrying amounts of long-term debt approximate their fair value as the variable interest rates are based on a market index.

 

Warrant Liabilities: The Company’s warrant liabilities (see Note 9, Warrant Liabilities) represent liability-classified derivative financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the Warrant Liabilities includes significant inputs unobservable in the market and thus are considered Level 3. The Company measured the fair value of the warrant liabilities at the issuance date, December 22, 2022, and subsequently at the balance sheet date, using a binomial option pricing model. The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs, not accounting for the Reverse Split-2023:

 

  

December 22,

2022

  

December 22,

2021

 
Stock price  $0.57   $6.44 
Volatility   105.0%   90%
Time to Expiry   4.01    5 
Dividend yield             0%              0%
Risk free rate   4.1%   1.10%

 

 

The following reconciles the warrant liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

 

                 
   Years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

Ending balance, December 31, 2022   -    6,384,250    48,900    6,433,150 

 

*Recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities per income statement is $29,064,958. The difference of $3,672,624 is made up of the Warrant issuance costs.

 

Earn-out liabilities: The Company generally values its Level 3 earn-out liabilities using the income valuation approach. Key valuation inputs include contingent payment arrangement terms, projected revenues and cash flows, rate of return, and probability assessments. The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements:

 

   December 31, 2022  December 31, 2021
Valuation technique  Discounted cash flow  Discounted cash flow
Significant unobservable input  Projected revenue and probability of achievement  Projected revenue and probability of achievement

 

The Company values its Level 3 earn-out liability related to the Barra Acquisition using a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework (a special case of the Income Approach). The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs:

 

  

December 31,

2022

 
WACC Risk Premium:   14.0%

Credit Spread:   7.7%
Payment Delay (days)   90
Risk free rate   USD Yield Curve 
Discounting Convention:   Mid-period 
Number of Iterations   100,000 

 

Undiscounted remaining earn out payments are approximately $2,967,592 as of December 31, 2022. The following table reconciles fair value of earn-out liabilities for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021:

Deferred Financing Costs

 

The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities. These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, unamortized deferred financing costs were $313,829, and $134,528, respectively and are netted against the related debt.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration such as earn-outs, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date. The Company remeasures fair value as of each reporting date and changes resulting from events after the acquisition date, are recognized as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value and accretion costs are recognized in earnings.

 

Identifiable Intangible Assets, net

 

Finite-lived intangible assets such as customer relationships assets, trademarks and tradenames are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally on a straight-line basis for periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of intangible assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value. No impairment was recognized during the periods presented.

 

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles

 

The Company records goodwill when the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned on the acquisition date and tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has more likely than not declined below its carrying value. Similarly, indefinite-lived intangible assets (if any) other than goodwill are tested annually or more frequently if indicated, for impairment. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on the expected discounted cash flows.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates issued financial instruments for classification as either equity or liability based on an assessment of the financial instrument’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the financial instruments issued are freestanding pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and, if applicable whether the financial instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the financial instruments are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the financial instruments are outstanding. Financial instruments that are determined to be liabilities under ASC 480 or ASC 815 are held at their initial fair value and remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded as a non-operating, non-cash loss or gain, as applicable.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the securities purchase agreement as discussed in Note 9, Warrant Liabilities. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. Upon the determination that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers which at its core, recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company’s revenue is primarily comprised of agency commissions earned from insurance carriers (the “Customer” or “Carrier”) related to insurance plans produced through brokering, producing and servicing agreements between insurance carriers and members. The Company defines a “Member” as an individual, family or entity currently covered or seeking insurance coverage.

 

The Company focuses primarily on agency services for insurance products in the “Healthcare” and property and casualty, which includes auto (collectively “P&C”) space, with nominal activity in the life insurance and bond sectors. Healthcare includes plans for individuals and families, Medicare supplements, ancillary and small businesses. The Company also earns revenue in the “Insurance Marketing” space as discussed further below.

 

Consideration for all agency services typically is based on commissions calculated by applying contractual commission rates to policy premiums. For P&C, commission rates are applied to premiums due, whereas for healthcare, commission rates, including override commissions, are applied to monthly premiums received by the Carrier.

 

The Company has two forms of billing practices, “Direct Bill” and “Agency Bill”. With Direct Bill, Carriers bill and collect policy premium payments directly from Members without any involvement from the Company. Commissions are paid to the Company by the Carrier in the following month. With Agency Bill, the Company bills Members premiums due and remits them to Carriers net of commission earned.

 

The following outlines the core principles of ASC 606:

 

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.

 

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

 

Determination of the transaction price. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer.

 

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis.

 

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company satisfies performance obligations either over time or at a point in time, as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.

 

 

Healthcare revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Carriers, to perform agency services that culminate in monthly premium cash collections by the Carrier. The performance obligation is satisfied through a combination of agency services including, marketing carrier’s insurance plans, soliciting Member applications, binding, executing and servicing insurance policies on a continuous basis throughout a policy’s life cycle which includes and culminates with the Customer’s collection of monthly premiums. No commission is earned if cash is not received by Carrier. Thus, commission revenue is earned only after a month’s cash receipts from Members’ dues is received by the Customer. Each month’s Carrier cash collections is considered a separate unit sold and transferred to the Customer i.e., the satisfaction of that month’s performance obligation.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on a commission rate applied to Member premiums paid and received by Carrier. The Company generally continues to receive commission payments from Carriers until a Member’s plan is cancelled or the Company terminates its agency agreement with the Carrier. Upon termination, the Company normally will no longer receive any commissions from Carriers even on business still in place. In some instances, trailing commissions could occur which would be recognized similar to other Healthcare revenue. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

Healthcare typically utilizes the Direct Bill method.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time, when it satisfies its monthly performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when Member insurance premium cash payments are received by the Customer. The Customer’s receipt of cash is the culmination and complete satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation, and the earnings process is complete.

 

With Direct Bill, since the amount of monthly Customer cash receipts is unknown to the Company until the following month when notice is provided by Customer to Company, the Company accrues revenue at each period end. Any estimated revenue accrued and recognized at a period-end is trued up for financial reporting per actual revenue earned as provided by the Customer during the following month.

 

P&C revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Customers, to perform agency services to solicit, receive proposals and bind insurance policies culminating with policy placement. Commission revenue is earned at the time of policy placement.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on commission rates applied to Member premiums due. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

P&C utilizes both the Agency Bill and Direct Bill methods, depending on the Carrier.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when the policy placement process is complete.

 

With both Direct Bill and Agency Bill, the Company accrues commission revenue in the period policies are placed. With Agency Bill, payment is typically received from Members in the month earned, however with Direct Bill, payment is typically received from Carriers in the month subsequent to the commissions being earned.

 

 

Insurance Marketing revenue recognition:

 

Medigap, a consolidated wholly owned subsidiary of the Company earns commission revenue by selling bound insurance policies with all renewal rights to insurance marketing organizations (the “IM Customer”). The IM Customers utilize innovative actuarial models to value and price policies purchased based on future projections. IM Customers pay a one-time commission per policy purchased to selling agencies based on a pre-agreed formula outlined in the parties’ contractual agreement. Commission payments are subject to chargeback in the event a policy is cancelled or lapses within 3 months of a policy’s effective date or until the first three payments are received from the insured party, depending on the IM Customer Contract.

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement to sell issued insurance policies to the IM Customer.

 

There is one performance obligation in IM Customer contracts, to sell the rights in Company procured issued insurance policies to the IM Customer. The performance obligation is satisfied when the rights to an issued policy have been transferred to the IM Customer.

 

Transaction price is stated in a contract and is a set range of commission amounts based on each policy sold. There are two variable components to consideration received:

 

  a) Commissions are only earned once a policy is “Placed”, defined as, an active policy sold to the IM Customer where the IM Customer has received the initial insurance carrier payment with respect to such policy. The Company requires end-user insured parties to pay the initial premium to the insurance carrier upon issuance of a policy. Insurance carrier in turn pays IM Customer its initial payment soon thereafter. Thus, upon sale of an issued policy to IM Customer, the Company has provided a bound issued policy and ensured first premium payment has been completed by insured party. This results in virtual assurance that the IM Customer will receive its initial insurance carrier payment, and it is more than probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. The Company thus considers all policies sold to the IM Customer to be Placed for revenue recognition purposes.
     
  b) Commission revenue is subject to chargeback in full if a policy is cancelled or lapses within three months from the policy effective date or if the insured party does not make the first three payments of the policy. The Company uses historical activity as well as current factors to estimate the unconstrained variable consideration for recognition per the expected value method. A chargeback reserve liability is credited for the difference between cash consideration received and variable consideration recognized. At each reporting period, the Company remeasures the chargeback reserve liability and recognizes any change as an increase or decrease to the then current period revenue. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the chargeback reserve liability was $1,585,435 and $0, respectively.

 

With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of an insurance policy transfers to the IM Customer. Transfer of control occurs when the Company submits the Policy to the IM Customer.

 

IM Customers generally pay the Company weekly, and accruals are recorded as necessary at period end.

 

Other revenue policies: Insurance commissions earned from Carriers for life insurance products are recorded gross of amounts due to agents, with a corresponding commission expense for downstream agent commissions being recorded as commission expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

When applicable, commission revenue is recognized net of any deductions for estimated commission adjustments due to lapses, policy cancellations, and revisions in coverage.

 

The Company could earn additional revenue from contingent commissions, profit-sharing, override and bonuses based on meeting certain revenue or profit targets established periodically by the Carriers (collectively, “Contingent Commissions”). Contingent Commissions are earned when the Company achieves targets established by Carriers. The Carriers notify the Company when it has achieved the target. The Company recognizes revenue for any Contingent Commissions at the time it is reasonably assured that a significant revenue reversal is not probable, which is generally when a Carrier notifies the Company that it is on track or has earned a Contingent Commission.

 

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by line of business, showing commissions earned:

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs for the Company’s administrative functions, professional service fees, office rent, all employee travel expenses, and other general costs.

 

Marketing and Advertising

 

The Company’s direct channel expenses primarily consist of costs for e-mail marketing and newspaper advertisements. The Company’s online advertising channel expense primarily consist of social media ads. Advertising costs for both direct and online channels are expensed as incurred.

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, based on the terms of the awards. The fair value of the stock-based payments to nonemployees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date, unless there is a contractual term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the contractual term. To the extent possible, the Company will estimate and recognize expected forfeitures.

 

Leases

 

The Company recognizes leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842” or “ASU 2016-12”). This standard provides enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. Expenses associated with leases are recognized as a single lease expense, generally on a straight-line basis.

 

The Company is the lessee in a contract when the Company obtains the right to use an asset. We currently lease real estate and office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. When applicable, consideration in a contract is allocated between lease and non-lease components. Lease payments are discounted using the implicit discount rate in the lease. If the implicit discount rate for the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. The Company did not have any contracts accounted for as finance leases as of December 31, 2022, or 2021. Operating leases are included in the line items right-of-use assets, current portion of leases payable, and leases payable, less current portion in the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company determines a lease’s term by agreement with lessor and includes lease extension options and variable lease payments when option and/or variable payments are reasonably certain of being exercised or paid.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating its ability to recover deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction in which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the expected reversals of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, taxable income available via carryback to prior years, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including scheduling the reversal of its deferred tax assets and liabilities, to determine the amount of valuation allowance needed. Scheduling the reversal of deferred tax asset and liability balances requires judgment and estimation. The Company believes the deferred tax liabilities relied upon as future taxable income in its assessment will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets that will be realized.

 

Seasonality

 

A greater number of the Company’s Medicare-related health insurance plans are sold in the fourth quarter during the Medicare annual enrollment period when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage. The majority of the Company’s individual and family health insurance plans are sold in the annual open enrollment period as defined under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and related amendments in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Individuals and families generally are not able to purchase individual and family health insurance outside of these open enrollment periods, unless they qualify for a special enrollment period as a result of certain qualifying events, such as losing employer-sponsored health insurance or moving to another state.

 

Prior Period Adjustments

 

The Company identified certain immaterial adjustments impacting the prior reporting period. Specifically, the Company identified adjustments to correct certain asset and equity accounts in relation to historical purchase price allocation accounting and adjustments to true up retained earnings for certain historical accrued revenues.

 

 

The Company assessed the materiality of the adjustments to prior period financial statements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. (SAB) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, and ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

 

Accordingly, the Company’s comparative consolidated financial statements and impacted notes have been revised from amounts previously reported to reflect these adjustments. The following table illustrates the impact on previously reported amounts and adjusted balances presented in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments carried at amortized cost, such as accounts receivable, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financing Instruments—Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of FASB ASC Topic 326 for certain small public companies and other private companies. As amended, the effective date of ASC Topic 326 was delayed until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and simplifies other areas of the existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this pronouncement January 1, 2021 which did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which amends ASC 805 to require an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in accordance with ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) as if the entity had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

J.P. Kush and Associates, Inc. Transaction

 

On May 1, 2021, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with J.P. Kush and Associates, Inc. whereby we purchased the business and certain assets noted within the Purchase Agreement (the “Kush Acquisition”) for a total purchase price of $3,644,166. The purchase price was paid with a cash payment of $1,900,000, $50,000 in restricted shares of our common stock, in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and an earn-out payment.

 

The Kush Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method under the guidance in ASC 805-10 and 805-20. Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to intangible assets acquired based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.

 

 

The allocation of the purchase price in connection with the Kush Acquisition was calculated as follows:

 

Description  Fair Value  

Weighted Average Useful Life

(Years)

Accounts receivable  $291,414    
Trade name and trademarks   685,400   5
Customer relationships   551,000   10
Non-competition agreements   827,800   5
Goodwill   1,288,552   Indefinite
   $3,644,166    

 

Trade name and trademarks was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 5.85% and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Customer relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Non-competition agreements were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 14.09%.

 

Goodwill of $1,288,552 arising from the Kush Acquisition consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued. Goodwill recognized pursuant to the Kush Acquisition is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total acquisition costs for the Kush Acquisition incurred were $58,092 recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses. The approximate revenue and net profit for the acquired business as a standalone entity per ASC 805 from January 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021 was $500,000 and $219,097, respectively.

 

Pro Forma Information

 

The results of operations of Kush will be included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of the date of acquisition through the current period end. The following approximate Company combined supplemental pro-forma financial information assumes that the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the year ended 2021:

Medigap Healthcare Insurance Agency, LLC Transaction

 

On January 10, 2022, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement, dated December 21, 2021, we completed the acquisition of all of the assets of Medigap Healthcare Insurance Company, LLC (“Medigap”) for a purchase price of $20,096,250 consisting of: (i) payment to Medigap of $18,138,750 in cash and (ii) the issuance to Medigap of 40,402 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock in a transaction exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The purchase price is subject to post-closing adjustment to reconcile certain pre-closing credits and liabilities of the parties. The shares issued to Medigap as part of the purchase price are subject to lock up arrangements pursuant to which 50% of the shares may be sold after the one-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction and the balance of the shares may be sold after the second-year anniversary of the date of closing of the transaction.

 

The acquisition of Medigap was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method under the guidance in ASC 805-10 and 805-20. Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to intangible assets acquired based on their respective estimated fair values. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows, developing appropriate discount rates, estimating the costs, and timing.

 

The allocation of the purchase price in connection with the acquisition of Medigap was calculated as follows:

 

Description  Fair Value   Weighted Average
Useful Life
(Years)
Property, plant and equipment  $20,666   6
Right-of-use asset   317,787    
Trade name and trademarks   340,000   15
Customer relationships   4,550,000   12
Technology   67,000   3
Backlog   210,000   1
Chargeback reserve   (1,484,473)   
Lease liability   (317,787)   
Goodwill   19,199,008   Indefinite
   $22,902,201    

 

Trade name was measured at fair value using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue from the trade name, a pre-tax royalty rate of 0.5% and a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

Customer relationships were measured at fair value using the multiple-period excess earnings method under the income approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of projected revenue and costs associated with existing customers, and a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

 

Technology was measured at fair value using the cost replacement method of the cost approach. Significant inputs used to measure the fair value include an estimate of cost to replace, an obsolescence rate of 40.3%.

 

The value assigned to backlog acquired was estimated based upon the contractual nature of the backlog as of the acquisition date, using the income approach to discount back to present value the cash flows attributable to the backlog, using a discount rate of 11.0%.

 

Goodwill of $19,199,008 arising from the acquisition of Medigap consisted of the value of the employee workforce and the residual value after all identifiable intangible assets were valued. Goodwill recognized pursuant to the acquisition of Medigap is currently expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Total acquisition costs for the acquisition of Medigap incurred were $94,065 recorded as a component of General and administrative expenses.

 

The approximate revenue and net profit or loss for the acquired business as a standalone entity per ASC 805 from January 10, 2022 to December 31, 2022 was $4,994,002 and a loss of $1,127,088, respectively.

INVESTMENT IN NSURE, INC

NOTE 4. INVESTMENT IN NSURE, INC.

 

On February 19, 2020, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with NSURE, Inc. (“NSURE”), which was further amended on October 8, 2020, and as amended provides that the Company may invest up to an aggregate of $5,700,000 in NSURE to be funded in three tranches. In exchange, the Company will receive a total of 928,343 shares of NSURE’s Class A Common Stock.

 

During the course of calendar year 2020 and by October 8, 2020, the Company funded the first tranche, $1,350,000 in exchange for 394,029 shares. The second tranche allowed the Company to acquire an additional 209,075 shares at a price of $6.457 per share by no later than December 30, 2020. The third full tranche allowed the Company to purchase an additional 325,239 shares at a purchase price of $9.224 after December 20, 2020, but no later than March 31, 2021.

 

The Company did not fund tranches two and three in the required timeframes, thus, the Company relinquished its rights under the contract to any additional NSURE shares aside for the ones already acquired with tranche one.

 

During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold 131,345 of its NSURE shares to unaffiliated third parties, receiving cash proceeds of $450,000. The Company’s remaining NSURE share balance as of December 31, 2022 is 262,684.

 

The Company measures the NSURE shares subsequent to acquisition in accordance with ASC 321-10-35-2, at cost less impairment since no readily determinable fair value is available to the Company. The investment is reviewed for impairment at each reporting period by qualitatively assessing any indicators demonstrating fair value of the investment is less than carrying value. The Company did not observe any price changes resulting from orderly transactions for identical or similar assets for the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. ASC 321-10-50-4 further requires an entity to disclose unrealized gains and losses for periods that relate to equity securities held at a reporting date. To date, the Company has not recognized any unrealized gains or losses on the NSURE security.

 

In accordance with ACS 321-10-35-3, the Company performed a qualitative assessment to determine if the investment may be impaired. After considering the indicators contained in ASC 321-10-35-3a –3e, the Company determined that the investment was not impaired.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

NOTE 6. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

In accordance with ASC 350-20-35-45, all the Company’s goodwill is assigned to a single operating and reporting unit. All of the acquisitions made by the Company are in one general insurance agency industry and operate in a very similar economic and regulatory environment. The Company has one executive who is responsible for the operations of the insurance agencies. This executive reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) on a quarterly basis. Additionally, the CEO who is responsible for the strategic direction of the Company reviews the operations of the insurance agency business collectively, as opposed to office by office.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, due to a declining market cap, the Company performed a goodwill impairment test utilizing the Market Approach – Traded Market Value Method, concluding that the Company’s fair value and resultant net assets, implied a goodwill balance of $19.1 million vs. our goodwill balance prior to write-down of $33.4 million. Thus, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $14,373,374 presented in the Statements of Operations as goodwill impairment for the year ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company assessed goodwill in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3, analyzing the relevant qualitative factors. The Company noted that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, thus determining that the two-step goodwill impairment test was not required. Pursuant to the qualitative assessment, the Company concluded that goodwill was not impaired as of and for the year ended December and 2021.

 

The following table rolls forward the Company’s goodwill balance for the periods ending December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Series B Warrants

 

On December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (SPA) with several institutional buyers for the purchase and sale of (i) warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 651,997 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.086 per share at an exercise price of $61.35 per share, (ii) an aggregate of 178,060 shares of Common Stock, and (iii) 9,076 shares of the Company’s newly-designated Series B convertible preferred stock, par value $0.086 per share, with a stated value of $1,000 per share, initially convertible into an aggregate of 147,939 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $61.35 per share, each a freestanding financial instrument, (the “Private Placement”). The aggregate purchase price for the Common Shares, the Preferred Shares and the Warrants was approximately $20,000,000.

 

By entering into the Private Placement on December 22, 2021, the Company entered into a commitment to issue the Common Shares, Preferred Shares and Series B Warrants on the Initial Closing Date for a fixed price and exercise price, as applicable. The commitment to issue Series B Warrants (the “Warrant Commitment”) represents a derivative financial instrument, other than an outstanding share, that, at inception, has both of the following characteristics: (i) embodies a conditional obligation indexed to the Company’s equity. The Company classified the commitment to issue the warrants as a derivative liability because it represents a written option that does not qualify for equity accounting The Company initially measured the derivative liability at its fair value and will subsequently remeasure the derivative liability, at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. An option pricing model was utilized to calculate the fair value of the Warrant Commitment. The Company initially recorded $17,408,311 of non-operating unrealized losses within the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

The Private Placement closed on January 4, 2022, at which time the Company remeasured the derivative liability for the warrants issued in the transaction, recognizing $17,408,311 of non-operating unrealized losses and a derivative liability of $55,061,119. The closing of the Private Placement settled the subscription receivable reported on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, due to a non-Private Placement related dilutive share issuance, effective December 27, 2022, the Series B Warrants outstanding increased to 1,333,333 and the exercise price reset to $7.50. On December 27, 2022, 1,667 Series B Warrants were exercised into 1,667 shares of common stock with cash proceeds to the Company of $12,500. As of December 31, 2022, there remains 1,331,667 Series B Warrants outstanding.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net fair value (gains) and losses recognized for the Series B Warrants were, ($48,668,869) and $0 respectively, presented in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations. The Series B Warrant liability outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is $6,384,250 and $0 respectively, presented in the warrant liability account on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Placement Agent Warrants

 

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company issued 16,303 warrants to the placement agent for the Private Placement. The warrants were issued as compensation for the Placement Agent’s services. The Placement Agent Warrants (PAW) are: (i) exercisable on any day after the six (6) month anniversary of the issue date, (ii) expire five years after the closing of the Private Placement, and (iii) exercisable at $61.35 per share. The Placement Agent Warrants contain terms that may require the Company to transfer assets to settle the warrants. Therefore, the Placement Agent Warrants are classified as a derivative liability, initially measured at fair value of $1,525,923 on the date of issuance and will be remeasured each accounting period with the changes in fair value reported in earnings. The Placement Agent Warrants are considered financing expense fees paid to the Placement Agent in relation to a derivative liability measured at fair value, thus, are included along with non-operating unrealized gains and losses in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net fair value (gains) and losses recognized for the PAW were, ($1,477,024) and $0 respectively, presented in the recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities account in the consolidated statements of operations. The PAW liability outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021 is $48,900 and $0 respectively, presented in the warrant liability account on the consolidated balance sheets.

Equity Incentive Plan

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company adopted the Reliance Global Group, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) under which various forms of equity awards can be granted to employees, directors, consultants, and service providers. Awards include but are not limited to, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and stock options. A total of 46,667 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Plan, and as of December 31, 2022, 32,391 shares remain available for issuance. With regards to options, the Company issues new shares of common stock from the shares reserved under the Plan upon exercise of options.

 

The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board is authorized to select from among eligible employees, directors, and service providers those individuals to whom shares and options are to be granted and to determine the number of shares to be subject to, and the terms and conditions of the options. The Board is also authorized to prescribe, amend, and rescind terms relating to options granted under the Plan. Generally, the interpretation and construction of any provision of the Plan or any shares and options granted hereunder is within the discretion of the Board.

 

Stock Options:

 

The Plan provides that options may or may not be Incentive Stock Options (ISOs) within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Only employees of the Company are eligible to receive ISOs, while employees, non-employee directors, consultants, and service providers are eligible to receive options which are not ISOs, i.e. “Non-Statutory Stock Options.” The options granted by the Board in connection with its adoption of the Plan were Non-Statutory Stock Options.

 

The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model or the value of the services provided, whichever is more readily determinable. The Black-Scholes option pricing model takes into account, as of the grant date, the exercise price and expected life of the option, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the option.

 

 

The following is a summary of the stock options granted, forfeited or expired, and exercised under the Plan for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively:

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, various employee terminations occurred resulting in option forfeitures of $0 and $70,004 respectively.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the options granted and outstanding had a total fair value of $2,421,960, which will be amortized in future periods through February 2024. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized $178,579 of compensation expense relating to the stock options granted to employees, directors, and consultants. As of December 31, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense totaled $17,166 which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period or requisite service period through February 2024.

 

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value and the exercise price of the shares on December 31, 2022. The market value as of December 31, 2022 was $8.55 based on the closing bid price for December 31, 2022.

The Company estimated the fair value of each stock option on the grant date using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Black-Scholes option-pricing models require the Company to make predictive assumptions regarding future stock price volatility, recipient exercise behavior, and dividend yield. The Company estimated the future stock price volatility using the historical volatility over the expected term of the option. The expected term of the options was computed by taking the mid-point between the vesting date and expiration date. The following assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, not accounting for the reverse splits:

 SCHEDULE OF ASSUMPTION OF BLACK-SCHOLES OPTION PRICING MODEL

   Year Ended

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

NOTE 12. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) applicable to common stockholders is computed by dividing earnings applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

 

If there is a loss from operations, diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as basic EPS is computed. Similarly, if the Company has net income but its preferred dividend adjustment made in computing income available to common stockholders results in a net loss available to common stockholders, diluted EPS would be computed in the same manner as basic EPS.

 

The following calculates basic and diluted EPS:

 

   2022   2021 
   For the Years Ended December 31, 
   2022   2021 
Net income (loss)  $6,466,162   $(21,098,465)

Operating Leases

 

ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. The standard requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability at the inception of the lease, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The Company’s leases consist of operating leases on buildings and office space.

 

In accordance with ASU 2016-02, right-of-use assets are amortized over the life of the underlying leases. Lease expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $598,422 and $307,773 respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rates for the operating leases were 3.82 years and 5.67% and 5.28 years and 5.83% respectively.

COVID-19 pandemic contingencies

 

The spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak in the United States has resulted in economic uncertainties which may negatively impact the Company’s business operations. While the disruption is expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty surrounding the duration and extent of the impact.

 

Adverse events such as health-related concerns about working in our offices, the inability to travel and other matters affecting the general work environment could harm our business and our business strategy. While we do not anticipate any material impact to our business operations as a result of the coronavirus, in the event of a major disruption caused by the outbreak of pandemic diseases such as coronavirus, we may lose the services of our employees or experience system interruptions, which could lead to diminishment of our business operations. Any of the foregoing could harm our business and delay the implementation of our business strategy and we cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current global health crisis and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.

 

Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, industry and workforce.

The Company did not have any material uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized benefits as a component income tax expense (benefit). The Company did not recognize any interest or penalties, nor did it have any interest or penalties accrued as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

 

Deferred income tax assets and (liabilities) consist of the following:

 

   December 31,

Deferred tax assets (liabilities)          
Net operating loss carryforward  $4,938,164   $1,900,194 
Stock based compensation   1,148,836    725,546

Valuation allowance   (5,975,846)   (2,835,065)
Net deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

The Company has approximately $19,784,000 of Federal Net Operating Loss Carry forwards, of which $1.3 million will begin to expire beginning 2031 and $18.5 million will not expire but are limited to use of 80% of current year taxable income.

 

The Company has approximately $15,264,000 of state net operation loss carry forward to offset future taxable income in the states in which it currently operates. These carryforwards start expiring in 2029.

 

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 limits the ability to utilize net operating losses if a 50% change in ownership occurs over a three-year period. Such limitation of the net operating losses may have occurred, but we have not analyzed it at this time as the deferred tax asset is fully reserved.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the valuation allowance increased $3,140,780 and $742,884, respectively.

 

The tax periods ending December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 are open for examination.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounting of Reliance Global Group, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Liquidity

Liquidity

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s reported cash and restricted cash aggregated balance was approximately $1,910,000, current assets were approximately $3,265,000, while current liabilities were approximately $7,794,000. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $4,529,000 and stockholders’ equity of approximately $8,911,039. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company reported net income of approximately $6,466,162, which includes a non-cash goodwill impairment of approximately $14,373,000, offset by a non-cash, non-operating measurement gain on the warrant commitment of approximately $29,065,000. The Company reported negative cash flows from operations of approximately $3,190,000. The Company completed a capital offering in February 2021 and January 2022 that raised net proceeds of approximately $10,496,000 and $17,853,000, respectively. As noted in Note 17 - Subsequent Events, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement which closed on March 16, 2023, the Company received funds net of transaction costs of approximately $3,446,000, to be used primarily for working capital.

 

Management believes the company’s financial position and continued ability to raise capital to be reasonable and sufficient. Based on our assessment, we do not believe there are any conditions or events that, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of filing these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Cash and Restricted Cash

Cash and Restricted Cash

 

Cash consists of checking accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Restricted cash includes cash pledged as collateral to secure obligations and/or all cash whose use is otherwise limited by contractual provisions.

 

At times, some cash balances held in banks may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, standard deposit insurance limit of $250,000.

 

 

The reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported within the applicable balance sheet accounts that sum to the total of cash and restricted cash presented in the statement of cash flows is as follows:

 

  

December 31,

2022

  

December 31,

2021

 
Cash  $505,410   $4,136,180 
Restricted cash   1,404,359    484,542 
Total cash and restricted cash  $1,909,769   $4,620,722 

 

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recognized over an asset’s estimated useful life using the straight-line method beginning on the date an asset is placed in service. The Company regularly evaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment to determine whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of depreciation. Certain capitalized software has been reclassified in the consolidated balance sheet from property and equipment, net to intangibles, net and comparative periods have been adjusted accordingly. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Estimated useful lives of the Company’s Property and Equipment are as follows:

 

   Useful Life (in years)
Computer equipment  5
Office equipment and furniture  7
Leasehold improvements  Shorter of the useful life or the lease term

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The accounting guidance includes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which include management’s own assumption about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk.

 

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively, the Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments, including cash, notes receivables, accounts payable, and short and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The carrying amounts of long-term debt approximate their fair value as the variable interest rates are based on a market index.

 

Warrant Liabilities: The Company’s warrant liabilities (see Note 9, Warrant Liabilities) represent liability-classified derivative financial instruments recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the Warrant Liabilities includes significant inputs unobservable in the market and thus are considered Level 3. The Company measured the fair value of the warrant liabilities at the issuance date, December 22, 2022, and subsequently at the balance sheet date, using a binomial option pricing model. The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs, not accounting for the Reverse Split-2023:

 

  

December 22,

2022

  

December 22,

2021

 
Stock price  $0.57   $6.44 
Volatility   105.0%   90%

*Recognition and change in fair value of warrant liabilities per income statement is $29,064,958. The difference of $3,672,624 is made up of the Warrant issuance costs.

 

Earn-out liabilities: The Company generally values its Level 3 earn-out liabilities using the income valuation approach. Key valuation inputs include contingent payment arrangement terms, projected revenues and cash flows, rate of return, and probability assessments. The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements:

 

   December 31, 2022  December 31, 2021
Valuation technique  Discounted cash flow  Discounted cash flow
Significant unobservable input  Projected revenue and probability of achievement  Projected revenue and probability of achievement

 

The Company values its Level 3 earn-out liability related to the Barra Acquisition using a Monte Carlo simulation in a risk-neutral framework (a special case of the Income Approach). The following summarizes the significant unobservable inputs:

 

  

December 31,

2022

 
WACC Risk Premium:   14.0%

Credit Spread:   7.7%
Payment Delay (days)   90
Risk free rate   USD Yield Curve

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

 

The Company has recorded deferred financing costs as a result of fees incurred by the Company in conjunction with its debt financing activities. These costs are amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method which approximates the interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, unamortized deferred financing costs were $313,829, and $134,528, respectively and are netted against the related debt.

 

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from business combinations and are expensed as incurred. If the business combination provides for contingent consideration such as earn-outs, the Company records the contingent consideration at fair value at the acquisition date. The Company remeasures fair value as of each reporting date and changes resulting from events after the acquisition date, are recognized as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value and accretion costs are recognized in earnings.

 

Identifiable Intangible Assets, net

Identifiable Intangible Assets, net

 

Finite-lived intangible assets such as customer relationships assets, trademarks and tradenames are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally on a straight-line basis for periods ranging from 3 to 20 years. Finite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of intangible assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value. No impairment was recognized during the periods presented.

 

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles

 

The Company records goodwill when the purchase price of a business acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned on the acquisition date and tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of a reporting unit has more likely than not declined below its carrying value. Similarly, indefinite-lived intangible assets (if any) other than goodwill are tested annually or more frequently if indicated, for impairment. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on the expected discounted cash flows.

 

Financial Instruments

Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates issued financial instruments for classification as either equity or liability based on an assessment of the financial instrument’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the financial instruments issued are freestanding pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and, if applicable whether the financial instruments meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the financial instruments are indexed to the Company’s own Common Stock, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance and as of each subsequent reporting period end date while the financial instruments are outstanding. Financial instruments that are determined to be liabilities under ASC 480 or ASC 815 are held at their initial fair value and remeasured to fair value at each subsequent reporting date, with changes in fair value recorded as a non-operating, non-cash loss or gain, as applicable.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the securities purchase agreement as discussed in Note 9, Warrant Liabilities. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. Upon the determination that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

 

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers which at its core, recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company’s revenue is primarily comprised of agency commissions earned from insurance carriers (the “Customer” or “Carrier”) related to insurance plans produced through brokering, producing and servicing agreements between insurance carriers and members. The Company defines a “Member” as an individual, family or entity currently covered or seeking insurance coverage.

 

The Company focuses primarily on agency services for insurance products in the “Healthcare” and property and casualty, which includes auto (collectively “P&C”) space, with nominal activity in the life insurance and bond sectors. Healthcare includes plans for individuals and families, Medicare supplements, ancillary and small businesses. The Company also earns revenue in the “Insurance Marketing” space as discussed further below.

 

Consideration for all agency services typically is based on commissions calculated by applying contractual commission rates to policy premiums. For P&C, commission rates are applied to premiums due, whereas for healthcare, commission rates, including override commissions, are applied to monthly premiums received by the Carrier.

 

The Company has two forms of billing practices, “Direct Bill” and “Agency Bill”. With Direct Bill, Carriers bill and collect policy premium payments directly from Members without any involvement from the Company. Commissions are paid to the Company by the Carrier in the following month. With Agency Bill, the Company bills Members premiums due and remits them to Carriers net of commission earned.

 

The following outlines the core principles of ASC 606:

 

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance, and (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.

 

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

 

Determination of the transaction price. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer.

 

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis.

 

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company satisfies performance obligations either over time or at a point in time, as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer.

 

 

Healthcare revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Carriers, to perform agency services that culminate in monthly premium cash collections by the Carrier. The performance obligation is satisfied through a combination of agency services including, marketing carrier’s insurance plans, soliciting Member applications, binding, executing and servicing insurance policies on a continuous basis throughout a policy’s life cycle which includes and culminates with the Customer’s collection of monthly premiums. No commission is earned if cash is not received by Carrier. Thus, commission revenue is earned only after a month’s cash receipts from Members’ dues is received by the Customer. Each month’s Carrier cash collections is considered a separate unit sold and transferred to the Customer i.e., the satisfaction of that month’s performance obligation.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on a commission rate applied to Member premiums paid and received by Carrier. The Company generally continues to receive commission payments from Carriers until a Member’s plan is cancelled or the Company terminates its agency agreement with the Carrier. Upon termination, the Company normally will no longer receive any commissions from Carriers even on business still in place. In some instances, trailing commissions could occur which would be recognized similar to other Healthcare revenue. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

Healthcare typically utilizes the Direct Bill method.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time, when it satisfies its monthly performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when Member insurance premium cash payments are received by the Customer. The Customer’s receipt of cash is the culmination and complete satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation, and the earnings process is complete.

 

With Direct Bill, since the amount of monthly Customer cash receipts is unknown to the Company until the following month when notice is provided by Customer to Company, the Company accrues revenue at each period end. Any estimated revenue accrued and recognized at a period-end is trued up for financial reporting per actual revenue earned as provided by the Customer during the following month.

 

P&C revenue recognition:

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement with a Carrier, the Customer, to provide agency services to Members.

 

There typically is one performance obligation in contracts with Customers, to perform agency services to solicit, receive proposals and bind insurance policies culminating with policy placement. Commission revenue is earned at the time of policy placement.

 

Transaction price is typically stated in a contract and usually based on commission rates applied to Member premiums due. With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

P&C utilizes both the Agency Bill and Direct Bill methods, depending on the Carrier.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of the service transfers to the Customer. Transfer occurs when the policy placement process is complete.

 

With both Direct Bill and Agency Bill, the Company accrues commission revenue in the period policies are placed. With Agency Bill, payment is typically received from Members in the month earned, however with Direct Bill, payment is typically received from Carriers in the month subsequent to the commissions being earned.

 

 

Insurance Marketing revenue recognition:

 

Medigap, a consolidated wholly owned subsidiary of the Company earns commission revenue by selling bound insurance policies with all renewal rights to insurance marketing organizations (the “IM Customer”). The IM Customers utilize innovative actuarial models to value and price policies purchased based on future projections. IM Customers pay a one-time commission per policy purchased to selling agencies based on a pre-agreed formula outlined in the parties’ contractual agreement. Commission payments are subject to chargeback in the event a policy is cancelled or lapses within 3 months of a policy’s effective date or until the first three payments are received from the insured party, depending on the IM Customer Contract.

 

The Company identifies a contract when it has a binding agreement to sell issued insurance policies to the IM Customer.

 

There is one performance obligation in IM Customer contracts, to sell the rights in Company procured issued insurance policies to the IM Customer. The performance obligation is satisfied when the rights to an issued policy have been transferred to the IM Customer.

 

Transaction price is stated in a contract and is a set range of commission amounts based on each policy sold. There are two variable components to consideration received:

 

  a) Commissions are only earned once a policy is “Placed”, defined as, an active policy sold to the IM Customer where the IM Customer has received the initial insurance carrier payment with respect to such policy. The Company requires end-user insured parties to pay the initial premium to the insurance carrier upon issuance of a policy. Insurance carrier in turn pays IM Customer its initial payment soon thereafter. Thus, upon sale of an issued policy to IM Customer, the Company has provided a bound issued policy and ensured first premium payment has been completed by insured party. This results in virtual assurance that the IM Customer will receive its initial insurance carrier payment, and it is more than probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. The Company thus considers all policies sold to the IM Customer to be Placed for revenue recognition purposes.
     
  b) Commission revenue is subject to chargeback in full if a policy is cancelled or lapses within three months from the policy effective date or if the insured party does not make the first three payments of the policy. The Company uses historical activity as well as current factors to estimate the unconstrained variable consideration for recognition per the expected value method. A chargeback reserve liability is credited for the difference between cash consideration received and variable consideration recognized. At each reporting period, the Company remeasures the chargeback reserve liability and recognizes any change as an increase or decrease to the then current period revenue. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the chargeback reserve liability was $1,585,435 and $0, respectively.

 

With one performance obligation, allocation of transaction price is normally not necessary.

 

The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when it satisfies its performance obligation and control of an insurance policy transfers to the IM Customer. Transfer of control occurs when the Company submits the Policy to the IM Customer.

 

IM Customers generally pay the Company weekly, and accruals are recorded as necessary at period end.

 

Other revenue policies: Insurance commissions earned from Carriers for life insurance products are recorded gross of amounts due to agents, with a corresponding commission expense for downstream agent commissions being recorded as commission expense within the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

When applicable, commission revenue is recognized net of any deductions for estimated commission adjustments due to lapses, policy cancellations, and revisions in coverage.

 

The Company could earn additional revenue from contingent commissions, profit-sharing, override and bonuses based on meeting certain revenue or profit targets established periodically by the Carriers (collectively, “Contingent Commissions”). Contingent Commissions are earned when the Company achieves targets established by Carriers. The Carriers notify the Company when it has achieved the target. The Company recognizes revenue for any Contingent Commissions at the time it is reasonably assured that a significant revenue reversal is not probable, which is generally when a Carrier notifies the Company that it is on track or has earned a Contingent Commission.

 

The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by line of business, showing commissions earned:

General and Administrative

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs for the Company’s administrative functions, professional service fees, office rent, all employee travel expenses, and other general costs.

 

Marketing and Advertising

Marketing and Advertising

 

The Company’s direct channel expenses primarily consist of costs for e-mail marketing and newspaper advertisements. The Company’s online advertising channel expense primarily consist of social media ads. Advertising costs for both direct and online channels are expensed as incurred.

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, based on the terms of the awards. The fair value of the stock-based payments to nonemployees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date, unless there is a contractual term for services in which case such compensation would be amortized over the contractual term. To the extent possible, the Company will estimate and recognize expected forfeitures.

 

Leases

Leases

 

The Company recognizes leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, “Leases” (“ASC 842” or “ASU 2016-12”). This standard provides enhanced transparency and comparability by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. Expenses associated with leases are recognized as a single lease expense, generally on a straight-line basis.

 

The Company is the lessee in a contract when the Company obtains the right to use an asset. We currently lease real estate and office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. When applicable, consideration in a contract is allocated between lease and non-lease components. Lease payments are discounted using the implicit discount rate in the lease. If the implicit discount rate for the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate. The Company did not have any contracts accounted for as finance leases as of December 31, 2022, or 2021. Operating leases are included in the line items right-of-use assets, current portion of leases payable, and leases payable, less current portion in the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use (“ROU”) asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company’s obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company determines a lease’s term by agreement with lessor and includes lease extension options and variable lease payments when option and/or variable payments are reasonably certain of being exercised or paid.

 

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In evaluating its ability to recover deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction in which they arise, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including the expected reversals of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, taxable income available via carryback to prior years, tax planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including scheduling the reversal of its deferred tax assets and liabilities, to determine the amount of valuation allowance needed. Scheduling the reversal of deferred tax asset and liability balances requires judgment and estimation. The Company believes the deferred tax liabilities relied upon as future taxable income in its assessment will reverse in the same period and jurisdiction and are of the same character as the temporary differences giving rise to the deferred tax assets that will be realized.

 

Seasonality

Seasonality

 

A greater number of the Company’s Medicare-related health insurance plans are sold in the fourth quarter during the Medicare annual enrollment period when Medicare-eligible individuals are permitted to change their Medicare Advantage. The majority of the Company’s individual and family health insurance plans are sold in the annual open enrollment period as defined under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and related amendments in the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. Individuals and families generally are not able to purchase individual and family health insurance outside of these open enrollment periods, unless they qualify for a special enrollment period as a result of certain qualifying events, such as losing employer-sponsored health insurance or moving to another state.

 

Prior Period Adjustments

Prior Period Adjustments

 

The Company identified certain immaterial adjustments impacting the prior reporting period. Specifically, the Company identified adjustments to correct certain asset and equity accounts in relation to historical purchase price allocation accounting and adjustments to true up retained earnings for certain historical accrued revenues.

 

 

The Company assessed the materiality of the adjustments to prior period financial statements in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. (SAB) 99, Materiality, and SAB 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, and ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

 

Accordingly, the Company’s comparative consolidated financial statements and impacted notes have been revised from amounts previously reported to reflect these adjustments. The following table illustrates the impact on previously reported amounts and adjusted balances presented in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement of expected credit losses for financial instruments carried at amortized cost, such as accounts receivable, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financing Instruments—Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of FASB ASC Topic 326 for certain small public companies and other private companies. As amended, the effective date of ASC Topic 326 was delayed until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC’s definition. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and simplifies other areas of the existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this pronouncement January 1, 2021 which did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which amends ASC 805 to require an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in accordance with ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) as if the entity had originated the contracts. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2022, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
