GRAYMARK HEALTHCARE, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
For the Periods Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Graymark Healthcare, Inc. (the “Company”) is organized in Oklahoma and provides diagnostic sleep testing services and care management solutions for people with chronic sleep disorders. In addition, the Company sells equipment and related supplies and components used to treat sleep disorders. The Company’s products and services are used primarily by patients with obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA. The Company’s sleep centers provide monitored sleep diagnostic testing services to determine sleep disorders in the patients being tested. The majority of the sleep testing is to determine if a patient has OSA. A continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP, device is the American Academy of Sleep Medicine’s, or AASM, preferred method of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. The Company’s sleep diagnostic facilities also determine the correct pressure settings for patient treatment with positive airway pressure. The Company sells CPAP devices and supplies to patients who have tested positive for sleep apnea and have had their positive airway pressure determined. There are noncontrolling interest holders in some of the Company’s testing facilities, who are typically physicians in the geographical area being served by the diagnostic sleep testing facility.
In May 2011 and December 2010, the Company executed the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries, Nocturna East, Inc. (“East”) and ApothecaryRx, LLC (“ApothecaryRx”), respectively. East operated the Management Services Agreement (“MSA”) under which the Company provided certain services to the sleep centers owned by Independent Medical Practices (“IMA”) including billing and collections, trademark rights, non-clinical sleep center management services, equipment rental fees, general management services, legal support and accounting and bookkeeping services. ApothecaryRx operated 18 retail pharmacy stores selling prescription drugs and a small assortment of general merchandise, including diabetic merchandise, non-prescription drugs, beauty products and cosmetics, seasonal merchandise, greeting cards and convenience foods. As a result of the sale of East and ApothecaryRx, the related assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East and ApothecaryRx have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation
As of December 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $29.2 million and reported a net loss of approximately $19.1 million for the year then ending. The Company used approximately $2.4 million in cash from operating activities of continuing operations during the year ending December 31, 2010. Furthermore, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $20.5 million as of December 31, 2010. At that time, there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
During May 2011 and June 2011, the Company raised a total of $9.3 million in net proceeds from a private and public offering of common stock and warrants. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5.5 million and total equity of $6.8 million. In addition, the Company expects to collect $2.0 million in the next eight months from the Indemnity Escrow Fund related to the ApothecaryRx sale transaction. The $5.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2011, and the expected cash availability over the next twelve months of $7.5 million are both more than management’s projected cash needs for the next twelve months of approximately $5.3 million. As a result, the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been eliminated.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.25 to 1 which is ratio required by the Company’s loan agreement with Arvest Bank (see Note 6). The Company has obtained a waiver from Arvest Bank for the Debt Service Coverage Ratio through December 31, 2011. Since the waiver does not extend past twelve months from September 30, 2011, the associated debt with Arvest Bank has been classified as current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. There are no assurances that Arvest Bank will waive the debt covenant violation beyond December 31, 2011. However, management has historically been successful in obtaining waivers from Arvest Bank.

On June 3, 2011, the Company executed a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock in a ratio of 1-for-4 (see Note 8). The effect of the reverse split reduced the Company’s outstanding common stock shares from 34,126,022 to 8,531,506 shares as of the date of the reverse split. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements give effect to the reverse split as of the first date presented.
Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
For a complete list of the Company’s significant accounting policies, please see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2010.
Interim Financial Information — The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2011. The consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The December 31, 2010 consolidated condensed balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements.
Reclassifications — Certain amounts presented in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation including the assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East and ApothecaryRx which are reflected as discontinued operations.
Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned, majority owned and controlled subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue recognition — Sleep center services and product sales are recognized in the period in which services and related products are provided to customers and are recorded at net realizable amounts estimated to be paid by customers and third-party payers. Insurance benefits are assigned to the Company and, accordingly, the Company bills on behalf of its customers. For its sleep diagnostic business, the Company estimates the net realizable amount based primarily on the contracted rates stated in the contracts the Company has with various payors. The Company has used this method to determine the net revenue for the business acquired from somniCare, Inc. and somniTech, Inc. (“Somni”) business since the date of the acquisition in 2009 and for the Company’s remaining sleep diagnostic business since the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company does not anticipate any future changes to this process. In the Company’s historic sleep therapy business, the business has been predominantly out-of-network and as a result, the Company has not had contract rates to use for determining net revenue for a majority of its payors. For this portion of the business, the Company performs a quarterly analysis of actual reimbursement from each third party payor for the most recent 12-months. In the analysis, the Company calculates the percentage actually paid by each third party payor of the amount billed to determine the applicable amount of net revenue for each payor. The key assumption in this process is that actual reimbursement history is a reasonable predictor of the future reimbursement for each payor at each facility. During the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company migrated much of its historic sleep diagnostic business to an in-network position. As a result, commencing with the fourth quarter of 2010, the revenue from the Company’s historic sleep diagnostic business was determined using the process utilized in the Somni business. The Company expects to transition its historic sleep therapy business to the same process currently used for its sleep diagnostic business by the end of 2011. This change in process and assumptions for the Company’s historic sleep therapy business is not expected to have a material impact on future operating results.

For certain sleep therapy and other equipment sales, reimbursement from third-party payers occur over a period of time, typically 10 to 13 months. The Company recognizes revenue on these sales as payments are earned over the payment period stipulated by the third-party payor.
The Company has established an allowance to account for contractual adjustments that result from differences between the amount billed and the expected realizable amount. Actual adjustments that result from differences between the payment amount received and the expected realizable amount are recorded against the allowance for contractual adjustments and are typically identified and ultimately recorded at the point of cash application or when otherwise determined pursuant to the Company’s collection procedures. Revenues in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are reported net of such adjustments.
Due to the nature of the healthcare industry and the reimbursement environment in which the Company operates, certain estimates are required to record net revenues and accounts receivable at their net realizable values at the time products or services are provided. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available, which could have a material impact on the Company’s operating results and cash flows in subsequent periods. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payers may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded.
The patient and their third party insurance provider typically share in the payment for the Company’s products and services. The amount patients are responsible for includes co-payments, deductibles, and amounts not covered due to the provider being out-of-network. Due to uncertainties surrounding deductible levels and the number of out-of-network patients, the Company is not certain of the full amount of patient responsibility at the time of service. Starting in 2010, the Company implemented a process to estimate amounts due from patients prior to service and increase collection of those amounts prior to service. Remaining amounts due from patients are then billed following completion of service.
Cost of Services and Sales — Cost of services includes technician labor required to perform sleep diagnostics, fees associated with interpreting the results of the sleep study and disposable supplies used in providing sleep diagnostics. Cost of sales includes the acquisition cost of sleep therapy products sold. Costs of services are recorded in the time period the related service is provided. Cost of sales is recorded in the same time period that the related revenue is recognized. If the revenue from the sale is recognized over a specified period, the product cost associated with that sale is recognized over that same period. If the revenue from a product sale is recognized in one period, the cost of sale is recorded in the period the product was sold.
Restricted cash — As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had long-term restricted cash of approximately $236,000 included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. This amount is pledged as collateral to the Company’s senior bank debt and bank line of credit.
Accounts receivable — The majority of the Company’s accounts receivable is due from private insurance carriers, Medicare/Medicaid and other third-party payors, as well as from patients relating to deductible and coinsurance provisions of their health insurance policies.
Third-party reimbursement is a complicated process that involves submission of claims to multiple payers, each having its own claims requirements. Adding to this complexity, a significant portion of the Company’s business has historically been out-of-network with several payors, which means the Company does not have defined contracted reimbursement rates with these payors. For this reason, the Company’s systems reported revenue at a higher gross billed amount, which the Company adjusted to an expected net amount based on historic payments. This process continues in the Company’s historic sleep therapy business, but was changed in the fourth quarter of 2010 for the Company’s historic sleep diagnostic business. As a result, the reserve for contractual allowance has been reduced, compared to the same periods in 2010, as our systems now report a larger portion of our business at estimated net contract rates. As the Company continues to move more of its business to in-network contracting, the level of reserve related to contractual allowances is expected to decrease. In some cases, the ultimate collection of accounts receivable subsequent to the service dates may not be known for several months. As these accounts age, the risk of collection increases and the resulting reserves for bad debt expense reflect this longer payment cycle. The Company has established an allowance to account for contractual adjustments that result from differences between the amounts billed to customers and third-party payers and the expected realizable amounts. The percentage and amounts used to record the allowance for doubtful accounts are supported by various methods including current and historical cash collections, contractual adjustments, and aging of accounts receivable.

The Company offers payment plans to patients for amounts due from them for the sales and services the Company provides. For patients with a balance of $500 or less, the Company allows a maximum of three months for the patient to pay the amount due. For patients with a balance over $500, the Company allows a maximum of six months to pay the full amount due. The minimum monthly payment amount for both plans is calculated based on the down payment and the remaining balance divided by three or six months, respectively.
Accounts are written-off as bad debt using a specific identification method. For amounts due from patients, the Company utilizes a collections process that includes distributing monthly account statements. For patients that are not on a payment plan, collection efforts including collection letters and collection calls begin at 60 days from the initial statement. If the patient is on a payment program, these efforts begin within 30 days of the patient failing to make a planned payment. For diagnostic patients, the Company submits patient receivables to an outside collection agency if the patient has failed to pay 120 days following service or, if the patient is on a payment plan, they have failed to make two consecutive payments. For therapy patients, patient receivables are submitted to an outside collection agency if payment has not been received between 180 and 240 days following service depending on the service provided and circumstances of the receivable or, if the patient is on a payment plan, they have failed to make two consecutive payments. It is the Company’s policy to write-off as bad debt all patient receivables at the time they are submitted to an outside collection agency. If funds are recovered by a collection agency, the amounts previously written-off are accounted for as a recovery of bad debt. For amounts due from third party payors, it is the Company’s policy to write-off an account receivable to bad debt based on the specific circumstances related to that claim resulting in a determination that there is no further recourse for collection of a denied claim from the denying payor.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the amounts the Company collected in excess of recorded contractual allowances were approximately $187,000 and $243,000, respectively. These amounts reflect the amount of actual cash received in excess of the original contractual amount recorded at the time of service.
Accounts receivable are reported net of allowances for contractual adjustments and doubtful accounts as follows:
                 
    September 30,     December 31,

Total
  $ 2,945,502     $ 2,597,848  
 
           
In addition to the aging of accounts receivable shown above, management relies on other factors to determine the collectability of accounts including the status of claims submitted to third party payors, reason codes for declined claims and an assessment of the Company’s ability to address the issue and resubmit the claim and whether a patient is on a payment plan and making payments consistent with that plan.
Included in accounts receivable are earned but unbilled receivables of approximately $216,000 and $129,000 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Unbilled accounts receivable represent charges for services delivered to customers for which invoices have not yet been generated by the billing system. Prior to the delivery of services or equipment and supplies to customers, the Company performs certain certification and approval procedures to ensure collection is reasonably assured and that unbilled accounts receivable is recorded at net amounts expected to be paid by customers and third-party payers. Billing delays can occur due to delays in obtaining certain required payer-specific documentation from internal and external sources, interim transactions occurring between cycle billing dates established for each customer within the billing system and new sleep centers awaiting assignment of new provider enrollment identification numbers. In the event that a third-party payer does not accept the claim for payment, the customer is ultimately responsible.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets — Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of the acquired business. Goodwill and other indefinitely-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment reviews during the fourth quarter, or more frequent reviews if events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment of goodwill.
Intangible assets other than goodwill which include customer relationships, customer files, covenants not to compete, trademarks and payor contracts are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight line method. The remaining lives range from three to fifteen years. The Company evaluates the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Earnings (loss) per share — Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted during the period. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted earnings (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
Adopted Guidance
On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to revenue recognition for multiple-deliverable arrangements. These changes require separation of consideration received in such arrangements by establishing a selling price hierarchy (not the same as fair value) for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which will be based on available information in the following order: vendor-specific objective evidence, third-party evidence, or estimated selling price; eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that the consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the arrangement to each deliverable on the basis of each deliverable’s selling price; require that a vendor determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis; and expand the disclosures related to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as the Company does not currently have any such arrangements with its customers.

On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted changes issued by the FASB to disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Specifically, the changes require a reporting entity to disclose, in the reconciliation of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), separate information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). The adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted changes issued by the FASB to the testing of goodwill for impairment. These changes require an entity to perform all steps in the test for a reporting unit whose carrying value is zero or negative if it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that a goodwill impairment exists based on qualitative factors. This will result in the elimination of an entity’s ability to assert that such a reporting unit’s goodwill is not impaired and additional testing is not necessary despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate otherwise. Based on the most recent impairment review of the Company’s goodwill (2010 fourth quarter), the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted changes issued by the FASB to the disclosure of pro forma information for business combinations. These changes clarify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. Also, the existing supplemental pro forma disclosures were expanded to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The adoption of these changes had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Issued Guidance
In July 2011, the FASB issued “Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities” (ASU 2011-07), which requires healthcare organizations that perform services for patients for which the ultimate collection of all or a portion of the amounts billed or billable cannot be determined at the time services are rendered to present all bad debt expense associated with patient service revenue as an offset to the patient service revenue line item in the statement of operations. The ASU also requires qualitative disclosures about the Company’s policy for recognizing revenue and bad debt expense for patient service transactions and quantitative information about the effects of changes in the assessment of collectability of patient service revenue. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2012. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial position.
In September 2011, the FASB issued changes to the testing of goodwill for impairment. These changes provide an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Such qualitative factors may include the following: macroeconomic conditions; industry and market considerations; cost factors; overall financial performance; and other relevant entity-specific events. If an entity elects to perform a qualitative assessment and determines that an impairment is more likely than not, the entity is then required to perform the existing two-step quantitative impairment test, otherwise no further analysis is required. An entity also may elect not to perform the qualitative assessment and, instead, go directly to the two-step quantitative impairment test. These changes become effective for the Company for any goodwill impairment test performed on January 1, 2012 or later, although early adoption is permitted. Management performs a review of the Company’s goodwill in the fourth quarter of each calendar year and plans to early adopt these changes effective for its review of goodwill in the fourth quarter of 2011. As these changes should not affect the outcome of the impairment analysis of a reporting unit, management has determined these changes will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 — Discontinued Operations
On May 10, 2011, the Company executed an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with Daniel I. Rifkin, M.D., P.C. pursuant to which we sold substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiary, Nocturna East, Inc. (“East”) for $2,500,000. In conjunction with the sale of East assets, the Management Services Agreement (“MSA”) under which the Company provided certain services to the sleep centers owned by Independent Medical Practices (“IMA”) including billing and collections, trademark rights, non-clinical sleep center management services, equipment rental fees, general management services, legal support and accounting and bookkeeping services was terminated. The Company’s decision to sell the assets of East was primarily based on management’s determination that the operations of East no longer fit into the Company’s strategic plan of providing a full continuum of care to patients due to significant regulatory barriers that limit the Company’s ability to sell CPAP devices and other supplies at the East locations. As a result of the sale of East, the related assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
On September 1, 2010, the Company executed an Asset Purchase Agreement, which was subsequently amended on October 29, 2010, (as amended, the “Agreement”) pursuant to which we sold substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiary, ApothecaryRx (the “ApothecaryRx Sale”). ApothecaryRx operated 18 retail pharmacy stores selling prescription drugs and a small assortment of general merchandise, including diabetic merchandise, non-prescription drugs, beauty products and cosmetics, seasonal merchandise, greeting cards and convenience foods. The final closing of the sale of ApothecaryRx assets occurred in December 2010. As a result of the sale of ApothecaryRx, the related assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of ApothecaryRx have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Under the Agreement, the consideration for the ApothecaryRx assets sold and liabilities assumed was $25,500,000 plus up to $7,000,000 for inventory (“Inventory Amount”), but less any payments remaining under goodwill protection agreements and any amounts due under promissory notes which are assumed by buyer (the “Purchase Price”). For purposes of determining the Inventory Amount, the parties agreed to hire an independent valuator to perform a review and valuation of inventory being purchased from each pharmacy location; the independent valuator valued the Inventory Amount at approximately $3.8 million. The resulting total Purchase Price was $29.3 million. Of the Purchase Price, $2,000,000 was deposited in an escrow fund (the “Indemnity Escrow Fund”) pursuant to the terms of an indemnity escrow agreement. All proceeds from the sale of ApothecaryRx were deposited in a restricted account at Arvest Bank. Of the proceeds, $22,000,000 was used to reduce outstanding obligations under the Company’s credit facility with Arvest Bank.
Generally, in December 2011 (the 12-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale of ApothecaryRx), 50% of the remaining funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund will be released, subject to deduction for any pending claims for indemnification. All remaining funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, if any, will be released in May 2012 (the 18-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale), subject to any pending claims for indemnification. Of the $2,000,000 Indemnity Escrow Fund, $1,000,000 was subject to partial or full recovery by the buyer if the average daily prescription sales at the buyer’s location in Sterling, Colorado over a six-month period after the buyer purchased the ApothecaryRx location in Sterling, Colorado did not increase by a certain percentage of the average daily prescription sales of ApothecaryRx’s Sterling, Colorado location during a period prior to the closing (the “Retention Rate Earnout”). The six-month period has passed and there was no adjustment as a result of the Retention Rate Earnout.

Carrying value
  $ 12,844,223     $ 12,844,223  
 
           
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives must be tested for impairment at least once a year. Carrying values are compared with fair values, and when the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the carrying value of the impaired asset is reduced to its fair value. The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if management believes indicators of impairment exist. The performance of the test involves a two-step process. The first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair values of the applicable reporting units with their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. The Company generally determines the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach methodology of valuation that includes the discounted cash flow method as well as other generally accepted valuation methodologies. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, the Company performs the second step of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of impairment loss. The second step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the affected reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying value of that goodwill.

In May 2008 and as amended in May 2009, July 2010 and December 2010, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Arvest Bank consisting of a $30 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $15 million line of credit to be used for future acquisitions (the “Acquisition Line”); collectively referred to as the “Credit Facility.” The Term Loan was used by the Company to consolidate certain prior loans to the Company’s subsidiaries SDC Holdings LLC (“SDC Holdings”) and ApothecaryRx LLC. The Term Loan and the Acquisition Line bear interest at the greater of the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal or the floor rate of 6%. The rate on the Term Loan is adjusted annually on May 21. The rate on the Acquisition Line is adjusted on the anniversary date of each advance or tranche. The Term Loan matures on May 21, 2014 and requires quarterly payments of interest only. Commencing on September 1, 2011, the Company is obligated to make quarterly payments of principal and interest calculated on a seven-year amortization based on the unpaid principal balance on the Term Loan as of June 1, 2011. Each advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line will become due on the sixth anniversary of the first day of the month following the date of the advance or tranche. Each advance or tranche is repaid in quarterly payments of interest only for three years and thereafter, quarterly principal and interest payments based on a seven-year amortization until the balloon payment on the maturity date of the advance or tranche. The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets and is personally guaranteed by various individual shareholders of the Company. The Company has also agreed to maintain certain financial covenants including a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1, as defined.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.25 to 1. In June 2011, the Company prepaid approximately $1.1 million in principal and interest to Arvest Bank and as a result, Arvest Bank has waived the Debt Service Coverage Ratio requirement through December 31, 2011. The prepayment represents all principal and interest payments due to Arvest Bank between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, the prepayment has a remaining balance of $694,307 and is reflected in other current assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The prepayment will be recorded as interest expense and a reduction of principal in accordance with the loan agreement. There is no assurance that Arvest Bank will waive the Debt Service Coverage Ratio requirement beyond December 31, 2011. Since the waiver does not extend past twelve months from September 30, 2011, the associated debt with Arvest Bank has been classified as current in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Issues: The Company is exposed to asserted and unasserted legal claims encountered in the normal course of business. Management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the operating results or the financial position of the Company. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not incur any material costs or settlement expenses related to its ongoing asserted and unasserted legal claims.

Note 8 — Capital Structure
In June 2011, the Company completed a public offering of 6,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants exercisable for the purchase of 6,700,000 shares for gross proceeds of $8,400,000 or $1.40 per combination of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The underwriter of the offering received sales commissions of $420,350 (5% of the gross proceeds), a corporate finance fee of $168,140 (2% of the gross proceeds) and a legal and other expense allowance of $116,094 (1.4% of the gross proceeds). In conjunction with the offering, each investor received a warrant to purchase one share of common stock for each share of common stock purchased. The amount received for the warrants has been included in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The warrants are exercisable for the purchase of one share of common stock for $1.50 beginning June 20, 2011 and on or before June 20, 2016. The Company incurred $824,603 in expenses directly associated with the offering. These expenses have been reflected as a reduction in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheets.
In conjunction with the offering, the underwriter had an option to purchase an additional 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock solely to cover over-allotments. The underwriter exercised the full over-allotment option with respect to the warrants in conjunction with the initial closing in June 2011 and the Company received $7,000 for the purchase of such warrants. In July 2011, the Company received $472,600 in gross proceeds from the sale of 340,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of a portion of the over-allotment shares by the underwriter. The net proceeds of the over-allotment were $439,518.
In May 2011, the Company executed subscription agreements with existing accredited investors or their affiliates to sell 1,293,103 shares of the Company’s common stock in a private placement. The proceeds of the private placement were approximately $3 million ($2.32 per share). The proceeds included $2 million in cash and $1 million from the conversion of a note payable to Valiant Investments, LLC. In conjunction with the private placement, each investor received a warrant to purchase one share of common stock for each common share purchased pursuant to the subscription agreement. The warrants are exercisable for the purchase of one share of common stock for $1.80 beginning November 4, 2011 and on or before May 4, 2014.
On January 26, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split in one of five ratios, namely 1 for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. On February 1, 2011, the Company received the consent of a majority of our shareholders for this reverse stock split. On May 18, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to effect the reverse stock split of our common stock in a ratio of 1-for-4 effective after the close of business on June 3, 2011. The Company executed the reverse stock split to regain compliance with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market. The effect of the reverse split reduced the Company’s outstanding common stock shares from 34,126,022 to 8,531,506 shares as of the date of the reverse split.
Note 9 — Stock Awards
In August 2011, the Company issued 85,000 shares in restricted stock grant awards to certain key employees and directors. The fair value of the restricted stock grant awards was $93,500 and was calculated by multiplying the number of restricted shares issued times the closing share price on the date of issuance. The stock grants immediately vested and as a result, were recorded as compensation expense on the grant date.
In July 2011, the Company issued 40,000 shares in restricted stock grant awards to a consultant to perform professional services. The fair value of the restricted stock grant awards was $50,000 and was calculated by multiplying the number of restricted shares issued times the closing share price on the date of issuance. The stock grants vested over a five month period ending in December 2011. Professional services expense will be recorded evenly over the vesting period.
During July and August, 2011, the Company issued options to certain key employees and the Company’s chairman for the purchase of 225,000 shares of the Company’s stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.25 to $2.32. The fair value of the options was estimated to be approximately $69,000. The value of the options is recorded as compensation expense over the requisite service period which equals the vesting period for the options.

Table of Contents

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards was approximately $148,000 and $22,000, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards was approximately $191,000 and $360,000, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
Note 10 — Fair Value Measurements
Recurring Fair Value Measurements: The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities is their cost, which may differ from fair value. The carrying value of cash held as demand deposits, money market and certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated their fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion approximated its carrying value. Fair value for long-term debt was estimated based on market prices of similar debt instruments and values of comparable borrowings.
Note 11 — Related Party Transactions
On March 16, 2011, the Company executed a promissory note with Valiant Investments, LLC in the amount of $1,000,000. The note bears interest at 6%. All accrued interest and principal are due at the maturity of the Note on August 1, 2011. Valiant Investments, LLC is controlled by Mr. Roy T. Oliver, one of the Company’s greater than 5% shareholders and affiliates. The promissory note is subordinate to the Company’s credit facility with Arvest Bank. In May 2011, the Valiant Note was converted to common stock in conjunction with a private placement stock offering. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred approximately $5,000 in interest expense on the Valiant Note.
As of September 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $5.1 million on deposit at Valliance Bank. Valliance Bank is controlled by Mr. Roy T. Oliver, one of our greater than 5% shareholders and affiliates. In addition, the Company is obligated to Valliance Bank under certain sleep center capital notes totaling approximately $91,000 and $110,000 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The interest rates on the notes are fixed at 6.0%. Non-controlling interests in Valliance Bank are held by Mr. Stanton Nelson, the Company’s chief executive officer and Mr. Joseph Harroz, Jr., a director of the Company. Mr. Nelson and Mr. Harroz also serve as directors of Valliance Bank.
The Company’s corporate headquarters and offices and the executive offices of SDC Holdings are occupied under a 60-month lease with Oklahoma Tower Realty Investors, LLC, requiring monthly rental payments of approximately $10,000 through May 2014. Mr. Roy T. Oliver, one of our greater than 5% shareholders and affiliates, controls Oklahoma Tower Realty Investors, LLC (“Oklahoma Tower”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred approximately $90,000 in lease expense under the terms of the lease. Mr. Stanton Nelson, the Company’s chief executive officer, owns a non-controlling interest in Oklahoma Tower Realty Investors, LLC.
Note 12 — Subsequent Events
Management evaluated all activity of the Company and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, except the following:
On October 1, 2011, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Stanton Nelson, pursuant to a restricted stock grant agreement and the employment agreement between the Company and Mr. Nelson. In accordance with the terms of the restricted stock grant agreement, Mr. Nelson elected to have the Company fund the personal tax liability of approximately $25,000 that Mr. Nelson owed at the time of vesting. In return, Mr. Nelson forfeited 22,216 of the shares vested which were calculated by dividing the tax withholding requirements by the market value of the stock on the date of vesting.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
Graymark Healthcare, Inc. is organized under the laws of the State of Oklahoma and is one of the largest providers of care management solutions to the sleep disorder market based on number of independent sleep care centers and hospital sleep diagnostic programs operated in the United States. We provide a comprehensive diagnosis and care management solutions for patients suffering from sleep disorders.
We provide diagnostic sleep testing services and care management solutions, or SMS, for people with chronic sleep disorders. In addition, we provide therapy services (delivery and set up of CPAP equipment together with training related to the operation and maintenance of CPAP equipment) and the sale of related disposable supplies and components used to maintain the CPAP equipment. Our products and services are used primarily by patients with obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA. Our sleep centers provide monitored sleep diagnostic testing services to determine sleep disorders in the patients being tested. The majority of the sleep testing is to determine if a patient has OSA. A continuous positive airway pressure, or CPAP, device is the American Academy of Sleep Medicine’s, or AASM, preferred method of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. Our sleep diagnostic facilities also determine the correct pressure settings for patient CPAP devices via titration testing. We sell CPAP devices and disposable supplies to patients who have tested positive for sleep apnea and have had their positive airway pressure determined.
As of September 30, 2011, we operated 96 sleep diagnostic and therapy centers in 9 states; 22 of which are located in our facilities with the remaining centers operated under management agreements. There are certain noncontrolling interest holders in some of our testing facilities, who are typically physicians in the geographical area being served by the diagnostic sleep testing facility.
Our sleep management solution is driven by our clinical approach to managing sleep disorders. Our clinical model is led by our staff of medical directors who are board-certified physicians in sleep medicine, who oversee the entire life cycle of a sleep disorder from initial referral through continuing care management. Our approach to managing the care of our patients diagnosed with OSA is a key differentiator for us. We believe our overall patient CPAP usage compliance rate, as articulated by the Medicare Standard of compliance requirements, is approximately 80%, compared to a national compliance rate of approximately 50%. Five key elements support our clinical approach:
    Referral: Our medical directors, who are board-certified physicians in sleep medicine, have forged strong relationships with referral sources, which include primary care physicians, as well as physicians from a wide variety of other specialties and dentists.
    Diagnosis: We own and operate sleep testing clinics that diagnose the full range of sleep disorders including OSA, insomnia, narcolepsy and restless legs syndrome.
    CPAP Device Supply: We sell CPAP devices, which are used to treat OSA.
    Re-Supply: We offer a re-supply program for our patients and other CPAP users to obtain the required disposable components for their CPAP devices that must be replaced on a regular basis.
    Care Management: We provide continuing care to our patients led by our medical directors who are board-certified physicians in sleep medicine and their staff.
Our clinical approach increases the long-term compliance of our patients, and enables us to manage a patient’s sleep disorder care throughout the life cycle of the disorder, thereby allowing us to generate a long-term, recurring revenue stream. We generate revenues via three primary sources: providing the diagnostic tests and related studies for sleep disorders through our sleep diagnostic centers, the sale of CPAP devices, and the ongoing re-supply of components of the CPAP device that need to be replaced. In addition, as a part of our ongoing care management program, we monitor the patient’s sleep disorder and as the patient’s medical condition changes, we are paid for additional diagnostic tests and studies.

In addition, we believe that our clinical approach to comprehensive patient care, provides higher quality of care and achieves higher patient compliance. We believe that higher compliance rates are directly correlated to higher revenue generation per patient compared to our competitors through increased utilization of our resupply or PRSP program and a greater likelihood of full reimbursement from federal payors and those commercial carriers who have adopted federal payor standards.
Public Offering and Private Placement Offering
In June 2011, we completed a public offering of 6,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants exercisable for the purchase of 6,700,000 shares for gross proceeds of $8,400,000 or $1.40 per combination of one share of common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The underwriter of the offering received sales commissions of $420,350 (5% of the gross proceeds), a corporate finance fee of $168,140 (2% of the gross proceeds) and a legal and other expense allowance of $116,094 (1.4% of the gross proceeds). In conjunction with the offering, each investor received a warrant to purchase one share of common stock for each share of common stock purchased. The warrants are exercisable for the purchase of one share of common stock for $1.50 beginning June 20, 2011 and on or before June 20, 2016. We incurred $824,603 in expenses directly associated with the offering.
In conjunction with the offering, the underwriter had an option to purchase an additional 700,000 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 700,000 shares of our common stock solely to cover over-allotments. The underwriter exercised the full over-allotment option with respect to the warrants in June 2011 in connection with the initial closing and we received $7,000 for the purchase of such warrants. In July 2011, we received $472,600 in gross proceeds from the sale of 340,000 over-allotment shares that the underwriter purchased directly from us. The net proceeds of the over-allotment were $439,518.
In May 2011, we executed subscription agreements with existing accredited investors or their affiliates to sell 1,293,103 shares of the Company’s common stock in a private placement. The proceeds of the private placement were approximately $3 million ($2.32 per share). The proceeds included $2 million in cash and $1 million from the conversion of the Valiant Note. In conjunction with the private placement, each investor received a warrant to purchase one share of common stock for each common share purchased pursuant to the subscription agreement. The warrants are exercisable for the purchase of one share of common stock for $1.80 beginning November 4, 2011 and on or before May 4, 2014.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 26, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a reverse stock split in one of five ratios, namely 1 for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6. On February 1, 2011, we received the consent of a majority of our shareholders for this reverse stock split. On May 18, 2011, our Board of Directors resolved to effect the reverse stock split of our common stock in a ratio of 1-for-4 effective after the close of business on June 3, 2011. We executed the reverse stock split to regain compliance with the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq Capital Market requires issuers to maintain a $1.00 minimum bid price. In determining a reverse stock split ratio of 1-for-4, the Board of Directors considered the continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Markets, considered a ratio that would allow us to achieve long-term compliance with the listing standards and which allowed us to have a number of outstanding shares to have sufficient trading volume. Our Board of Directors determined that a ratio of 1-for-4 was the best balance of these various factors. The effect of the reverse split reduced our outstanding common stock shares from 34,126,022 to 8,531,506 shares as of the date of the reverse split.
Basis of Presentation
As of December 31, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $29.2 million and reported a net loss of approximately $19.1 million for the year then ending. We used approximately $2.4 million in cash from operating activities of continuing operations during the year ending December 31, 2010. Furthermore, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $20.5 million as of December 31, 2010. At that time, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

19


Table of Contents

During May 2011 and June 2011, we raised a total of $9.3 million in net proceeds from a private and public offering of common stock and warrants. As of September 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5.5 million and total equity of $6.8 million. In addition, we expect to collect $2.0 million, in the next eight months, from the Indemnity Escrow Fund related to the ApothecaryRx sale transaction. The $5.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, as of September 30, 2011, and the expected cash availability over the next twelve months of $7.5 million are both more than our projected cash needs for the next twelve months of approximately $5.3 million. As a result, the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern has been eliminated.
As of September 30, 2011, our Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.25 to 1 which is ratio required by our loan agreement with Arvest Bank. We have obtained a waiver from Arvest Bank for the Debt Service Coverage Ratio through December 31, 2011. Since the waiver does not extend past twelve months from September 30, 2011, the associated debt with Arvest Bank has been classified as current in our consolidated balance sheets. There are no assurances that Arvest Bank will waive the debt covenant violation beyond December 31, 2011. However, we have historically been successful in obtaining waivers from Arvest Bank.
Discontinued Operations
In May 2011, we executed an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with Daniel I. Rifkin, M.D., P.C. providing for the sale of substantially all of the assets of our subsidiary, Nocturna East, Inc. (“East”) for $2,500,000. In conjunction with the sale of East assets, the Management Services Agreement (“MSA”) under which the Company provided certain services to the sleep centers owned by Independent Medical Practices (“IMA”) including billing and collections, trademark rights, non-clinical sleep center management services, equipment rental fees, general management services, legal support and accounting and bookkeeping services will be terminated. Our decision to sell the assets of East was primarily based on our determination that the operations of East no longer fit into our strategic plan of providing a full continuum of care to patients due to significant regulatory barriers that limit our ability to sell CPAP devices and other supplies at the East locations. As a result of the sale of East, the historical assets, and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East have been classified as discontinued operations for financial statement reporting purposes.
On September 1, 2010, we executed an Asset Purchase Agreement, which was subsequently amended on October 29, 2010, (as amended, the “Agreement”) providing for the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company’s subsidiary, ApothecaryRx to Walgreens. ApothecaryRx operated 18 retail pharmacies selling prescription drugs and a small assortment of general merchandise, including diabetic merchandise, non-prescription drugs, beauty products and cosmetics, seasonal merchandise, greeting cards and convenience foods. The final closing of the sale of ApothecaryRx’s assets occurred in December 2010. As a result of the sale of ApothecaryRx’s assets, the remaining assets, and liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of ApothecaryRx have been classified as discontinued operations for financial statement reporting purposes.
Under the Agreement, the consideration for the ApothecaryRx assets purchased and liabilities assumed is $25,500,000 plus up to $7,000,000 for inventory (“Inventory Amount”), but less any payments remaining under goodwill protection agreements and any amounts due under promissory notes which are assumed by buyer (the “Purchase Price”). For purposes of determining the Inventory Amount, the parties agreed to hire an independent valuator to perform a review and valuation of inventory being purchased from each pharmacy location. We received approximately $24.5 million in net proceeds from the sale of assets of which $2.0 million was deposited into an indemnity escrow account (the “Indemnity Escrow Fund”) as previously agreed pursuant to the terms of an indemnity escrow agreement. These proceeds are net of approximately $1.0 million of security deposits transferred to the buyer and the assumption by the buyer of liabilities associated with goodwill protection agreements and promissory notes. We also received an additional $3.8 million for the sale of inventory to Buyer at 17 of our pharmacies with the inventory for the remaining pharmacy being sold as part of the litigation settlement. We used $22.0 million of the proceeds to pay-down our senior credit facility.
In December 2011 (the 12-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale of ApothecaryRx), 50% of the remaining funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund ($1.0 million) will be released, subject to deduction for any pending claims for indemnification. All remaining funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund will be released in June 2012 (the 18-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale), subject to any pending claims for indemnification. Of the $2,000,000 Indemnity Escrow Fund, $1,000,000 was subject to partial or full recovery by the buyer if the average daily prescription sales at the buyer’s location in Sterling, Colorado over a six-month period after the buyer purchases the ApothecaryRx location in Sterling, Colorado did not increase by a certain percentage of the average daily prescription sales by the ApothecaryRx Sterling, Colorado location (the “Retention Rate Earnout”). The six-month period has passed and there was no adjustment as a result of the Retention Rate Earnout.

Discussion of Three Month Periods Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
Services revenues decreased $0.2 million (a 6.9% decrease) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010. Our sleep diagnostic services are performed in two environments, our independent diagnostic testing facilities (“IDTF”) and at contracted client locations (“Hospital/Outreach”). For studies performed in our IDTF locations, we generally bill third-party payors for the sleep study. In our hospital and outreach agreements, we are paid a contracted fee per study performed. In our more rural outreach locations, our contracted rates are typically higher due to the additional costs associated with servicing more remote locations. Our urban hospital agreements tend to be at a lower rate due to the reimbursement environment and lower costs to serve.
The decline in revenues from sleep diagnostic services during the third quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010 was due to a $0.5 million decrease at our IDTF locations which was offset by a $0.3 million increase at our Hospital/Outreach locations.

Table of Contents

The $0.5 million decrease at our IDTF locations was due to the following:
    In May 2011, we transitioned our Tulsa Midtown IDTF location to a contracted hospital location. As part of this transition, the reimbursement model at this location changed from the IDTF third-party billing model to a rate per day model under the hospital contract and is now included in the Hospital/Outreach category. This change resulted in a decrease in IDTF revenue of $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2011 compared with the same quarter in 2010.
    Since the third quarter of 2010, we have closed two unprofitable IDTF facilities. The closing of these facilities accounts for $0.1 million of the reduction in IDTF revenue.
    A decrease in volumes at our existing IDTF locations during the third quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010 drove $0.2 million of the revenue reduction.
    The average reimbursement per sleep study from third-party payers at our existing IDTF locations was flat during the third quarter of 2011 compared with the same quarter in 2010.
The $0.3 million increase in our Hospital/Outreach locations was due to the following:
    As described above, we transitioned our Tulsa Midtown IDTF location to a contracted hospital location in May 2011. As a result for the third quarter of 2011, revenue from this location is included in our Hospital/Outreach category. This change accounts for $0.2 million of the increase in revenues from Hospital/Outreach locations compared to the same quarter in 2010.
    Since the third quarter of 2010, we have executed six new hospital agreements. The addition of these Hospital/Outreach locations accounts for $0.1 million of the increase in Hospital/Outreach revenue during the third quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter in 2010.
    Periodically, we receive revenues from performing research studies at our clinics in Kansas City, MO. The volume of research studies is sporadic and is driven by the physicians who lead the studies. During the third quarter of 2011, we performed significantly less research sleep studies compared to the third quarter of 2010. This decline in research studies resulted in a reduction of $0.1 million in revenue in the third quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010.
    An increase in volumes in our existing Hospital/Outreach business during the third quarter of 2011 caused an increase of $0.2 million in revenue compared to the third quarter of 2010.
    A reduction in the average revenue per sleep study in our existing Hospital/Outreach business during the third quarter of 2011 resulted in a decrease in revenue of $0.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2010. The lower average reimbursement is due to a change in sleep study mix between facilities towards lower average reimbursement locations.
We continue to see improvement in sleep study volumes during 2011 at both our IDTF and Hospital/Outreach locations on a sequential quarter basis. However, much of this growth has been in Hospital/Outreach locations which provide a lower average reimbursement per sleep study
Product revenues from our sleep therapy business decreased $0.1 million (an 11.1% decrease) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010. The decrease was due to a $0.2 million reduction in revenue from the initial set-up of CPAP devices, partially offset by a $0.1 million increase in revenue from our re-supply business. The reduction in CPAP set-up revenues was a combination of lower volumes, driven by a lower conversion rate of sleep studies to CPAP set-ups, and a reduction in average revenue per set-up performed due to a combination of a change in the mix of payors and rate reductions from some payors. The increase in supply revenue was driven by the continued growth of our recurring re-supply revenue stream.
During the first quarter of 2011 we focused on driving increased volume in our sleep diagnostic centers by making several key management changes in our sales team and implementing new sales incentive initiatives. In addition, during the third quarter of 2011, we centralized the majority of our benefits verification and scheduling processes, which drove an improvement in our conversion rate of referrals to sleep studies. We expect to complete the centralization of these processes in the early part of the fourth quarter of 2011, which we anticipate will bring additional volume enhancements.

Cost of services decreased $0.1 million (a 3.8% decrease) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in cost of services was primarily due to operational efficiencies including a decrease in technician labor cost per sleep study performed and the renegotiation and resulting reduction of professional interpretation fees.
Cost of services as a percent of service revenue was 39.5% and 38.2% during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cost of services as a percent of service revenue was primarily due to the shift in our business towards Hospital/Outreach sleep studies, Studies performed at our Hospital/Outreach locations have a lower reimbursement per sleep study compared to our IDTF locations, and as a result, have a higher cost of service as a percentage of revenue. During the third quarter of 2010, 75% of our sleep studies were preformed in an IDTF location compared to the third quarter of 2011 when 58% of our sleep studies were performed at an IDTF location. The higher cost of service percentage in Hospital/Outreach locations is more than offset by the significantly lower operating expense associated with these locations, primarily related to the lack of facility costs at these locations.
Cost of sales from our sleep therapy business was flat during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010.
Cost of sales as a percent of product sales was 38.6% and 31.7% during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cost of sales as a percent of product sales was due to a combination of higher volumes, during the third quarter of 2011, driving a higher number of product sales at an overall lower average reimbursement per set-up and average reimbursement per shipment compared to the third quarter of 2010. In addition, the following changes contributed to the increase in the cost of sales as a percent of product sales:
    Beginning in July 2011, we began providing monthly supply shipments in our Texas, Oklahoma and Nevada markets. These monthly shipments contain fewer products than our quarterly shipments and, while profitable, the monthly shipments have a lower average revenue per shipment than quarterly shipments and a lower margin than CPAP set-ups.
    During the third quarter of 2011, due to the CPAP prescribing patterns of a few physicians in our Texas and Oklahoma markets, our mix of CPAP equipment shifted to higher cost equipment which caused an increase in the average cost of our CPAP equipment compared to the third quarter of 2010.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.4 million (an 11.5% decrease) to $3.3 million or 74.0% of revenue from $3.7 million or 76.8% of revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2011, compared with the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to:
    a decrease in operating expenses in our sleep diagnostic business of $0.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2010 primarily due to the implementation of several cost reduction initiatives including staff reductions related to the centralization of the billing, scheduling and verification of benefits functions, renegotiating of facility leases, the consolidation of non-profitable facilities during the last quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 and the increase in Hospital/Outreach agreements which have significantly lower operating costs than our IDTF facilities; and
    a decrease in overhead incurred at the parent-company level of $0.1 million due to reductions in executive labor expenses related to staff reductions and reduced legal and other professional fee expenses which was partially offset by an increase in stock compensation expense.
Bad debt expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011, was flat compared with the third quarter of 2010 at $0.4 million. For the third quarter of 2011, bad debt expense was 8.6% of revenue compared to 7.7% in 2010. Our bad debt expense is driven primarily by the aging of our account receivable balances. In the third quarter of 2011, we saw growth in our aging categories over 180 days compared to the third quarter of 2010. The aging categories over 180 days are where our reserve rates are highest. In addition to the growth in these aging categories, in the fourth quarter of 2010, we increased our reserve rates on the claims in these categories. The combination of the growth in these older categories, which relate to revenue billed in late 2010 and early 2011, and the more conservative reserve rates in those categories compared to the third quarter of 2010 resulted in a higher reserve as a percentage of current quarter revenue.

Depreciation and amortization represents the depreciation expense associated with our fixed assets and the amortization attributable to our intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization decreased approximately $39,000 (a 12.3% decrease) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010. The decrease is primarily due to the fixed asset impairment of $0.8 million recorded in the third quarter of 2010 which reduced the overall asset base and depreciation rates.
Net other expense represents interest expense on borrowings reduced by interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents. Net other expense decreased approximately $39,000 (an 11.3% decrease) during the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the third quarter of 2010. The decrease is related to principal reductions made on our borrowings.
Income from discontinued operations represents the net income (loss) from the operations of East and ApothecaryRx. In May 2011 and December 2010, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of East and ApothecaryRx, respectively. As a result, the related assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East and ApothecaryRx have been classified as discontinued operations. In addition, we have discontinued operations related to our discontinued  internet sales division and discontinued film operations. The results of East, ApothecaryRx and our other discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 follows:

Noncontrolling interests are the equity ownership interests in our SDC Holdings subsidiaries that are not wholly-owned.
Net income (loss) attributable to Graymark Healthcare. Our operations resulted in a net loss of approximately $1.6 million (35% of approximately $4.5 million in net revenues) during the third quarter of 2011, compared to a net loss of approximately $3.8 million (77% of approximately $4.9 million in net revenues) during the third quarter of 2010.

Discussion of Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2011 and 2010
Services revenues decreased $2.3 million (a 19.9% decrease) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. The decline in revenues from sleep diagnostic services during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010 was due to a $2.6 million decrease at our IDTF locations and a $0.1 million decrease in our clinics, offset by a $0.4 million increase at our Hospital/Outreach locations.
The $2.6 million decrease at our IDTF locations was due to the following:
    In May 2011, we transitioned our Tulsa Midtown IDTF location to a contracted hospital location. As part of this transition, reimbursement at this location changed from the IDTF third-party billing model to a rate per day model under the hospital contract and is now included in the Hospital/Outreach category. This change resulted in a reduction in revenue of $0.5 million during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
    Since the third quarter of 2010, we have closed two unprofitable IDTF facilities. The closing of these facilities accounted for $0.3 million of the reduction in IDTF revenue in the first 9 months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010.
    A decrease in volumes at our existing IDTF locations during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010 resulted in a revenue reduction of $0.9 million. During the first quarter of 2011, we incurred a series of severe weather events at our locations in Kansas, Iowa, South Dakota, Oklahoma and Texas which negatively impacted our volumes in those months. As a result of the severe weather, several of our labs were forced to close on multiple days during those months, contributing to reduced volumes in the first nine months of 2011.
    A decrease in our average reimbursement per sleep study from our existing facilities during the first nine months of 2011 resulted in a revenue reduction of $0.9 million compared to the first nine months of 2010. The year to date variance occurred primarily in the first six months of 2011 compared to the first six months of 2010 and was driven by a significant shift to in-network reimbursement beginning in the third quarter of 2010. Our average reimbursement per sleep study in our base business during the third quarter of 2011 compared to the third quarter of 2010 was consistent.
The $0.4 million increase in our Hospital/Outreach locations was due to the following:
    As described above, we transitioned our Tulsa Midtown IDTF location to a contracted hospital location in May 2011. As a result for the third quarter, revenue from this location is included in our Hospital/Outreach category. This change accounts for $0.3 million of the revenue increase during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
    Since the third quarter of 2010, we have executed six new hospital agreements. The addition of these Hospital/Outreach locations resulted in a revenue increase $0.3 million for the first nine months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010.
    Periodically, we receive revenues from performing research studies at our clinics in Kansas City, MO. The volume of research studies is sporadic and is driven by the physicians who lead the studies. During the first nine months of 2011, we performed significantly less research sleep studies compared to the same period in 2010. This decline in research studies resulted in a reduction of $0.1 million in revenue in the first nine months of 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
    Volume in our existing Hospital/Outreach business was flat during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010.
    A reduction in the average revenue per sleep study in our existing Hospital/Outreach business resulted in decreased revenue of $0.1 million during the first nine months of 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010. The lower average reimbursement is primarily due to a change in sleep study mix between facilities towards lower average reimbursement locations.

Table of Contents

The $0.1 million decline in revenues related to our clinic services was related to the closing of our clinics in the Oklahoma City area.
During the first quarter of 2011, we focused on driving increased volume in our sleep diagnostic centers by making several key management changes in our sales team and implementing new sales incentive initiatives. In addition, during the third quarter of 2011, we centralized the majority of our benefits verification and scheduling processes, which drove an improvement in our conversion rate of referrals to sleep studies. We expect to complete the centralization of these processes in the early part of the fourth quarter of 2011, which we anticipate will bring additional volume enhancements.
Product revenues from our sleep therapy business decreased $0.3 million (a 7.3% decrease) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. The decrease was due to $0.5 million in lower set-up revenue driven by a combination of lower volumes due to lower conversion rates of sleep studies to CPAP set-ups and lower average reimbursement per set-up, offset by a $0.2 million increase in supply revenues reflecting the continued growth of our re-supply business.
Cost of services decreased $0.4 million (a 9.3% decrease) to $3.8 million from $4.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in cost of services was primarily due to decreased sleep study volumes and operational efficiencies including a decrease in technician labor cost per sleep study performed and the renegotiation and resulting reduction of professional interpretation fees.
Cost of services as a percent of services was 40.6% and 35.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cost of services as a percent of service revenue was primarily due to the shift in our business towards Hospital/Outreach sleep studies which have a lower reimbursement per sleep study compared to our IDTF locations, and as a result has a higher cost of service as a percentage of revenue. In the first nine months of 2010, 72% of our sleep studies were preformed in an IDTF location compared to the first nine months of 2011, when 63% of our sleep studies were performed at an IDTF location. The higher cost of service percentage in Hospital/Outreach locations is more than offset by the significantly lower operating expense associated with these locations, primarily related to the lack of facility costs at these locations.
Cost of sales from our sleep therapy business increased $0.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. The increase was due to an adjustment of approximately $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2010 to reflect the appropriate cost of sales and inventory levels for in-service equipment. Net of that adjustment, cost of sales from our therapy business would have been flat compared to the first nine months of 2010.
Cost of sales as a percent of product sales was 34.0% and 28.0% during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cost of sales as a percent of product sales was due to the previously described adjustment in the third quarter of 2010 (accounting for 2.7% of the 6.0% variance). In addition, the following changes contributed to the increase in the cost of sales as a percent of product sales:
    Beginning in July 2011, we began providing monthly supply shipments in our Texas, Oklahoma and Nevada markets. These monthly shipments contain fewer products than our quarterly shipments and, while profitable, the monthly shipments have a lower average revenue per shipment than quarterly shipments and a lower margin than CPAP set-ups.
    During the third quarter of 2011, due to the CPAP prescribing patterns of a few physicians in our Texas and Oklahoma markets, our mix of CPAP equipment shifted to higher cost equipment which caused an increase in the average cost of our CPAP equipment compared to the third quarter of 2010.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.9 million (a 15.6% decrease) to $10.0 million or 77% of revenue from $11.9 million or 76% of revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared with the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to:
    a decrease in operating expenses in our sleep diagnostic business of $1.4 million compared to the first nine months of 2010 primarily due to the implementation of several cost reduction initiatives including staff reductions, renegotiating of facility leases, consolidation of non-profitable facilities during the last three quarters of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 and the increase in Hospital/Outreach agreements which have significantly lower operating costs than our IDTF facilities;

    an increase in operating expense in our sleep therapy business of $0.3 million as we expanded our infrastructure in order to gain operating efficiencies and prepare for continued growth in this business unit; and
    a decrease in overhead incurred at the parent-company level of $0.8 million due to decreased stock option expense of $0.2 million and $0.6 million related to reductions in executive labor expenses due to staff reductions and lower legal and other professional fees.
Bad debt expense for the first nine months of 2011 decreased $0.5 million (a 45.6% decrease) to $0.6 million or 4.8% of revenue from $1.2 million or 7.3% of revenue for the first nine months of 2010. Although we saw an increase in our bad debt as a percent of revenue in the third quarter of 2011, the bad debt expense for the first nine months of 2011 in dollars and as a percent of revenue have improved compared to the first nine months of 2010. Overall, we have improved our collections on current claims compared to the first nine months of 2010 and we have specific programs in place to address the growth in our older aging categories which we feel will result in an overall improvement in bad debt, both in expense and as a percent of revenue, compared to 2010.
Depreciation and amortization represents the depreciation expense associated with our fixed assets and the amortization attributable to our intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization decreased $0.1 million (a 15.0% decrease) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the first nine months of 2010. The decrease is primarily due to the fixed asset impairment of $0.8 million recorded in the third quarter of 2010 which reduced the overall asset base and depreciation rates.
Net other expense represents interest expense on borrowings reduced by interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents. Net other expense increased $0.1 million (a 7.9% increase) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared with the first nine months of 2010. The increase is related to interest expense on debt that was moved from discontinued operations to continuing operations.
Income from discontinued operations represents the net income (loss) from the operations of East and ApothecaryRx. In May 2011 and December 2010, we completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of East and ApothecaryRx, respectively. As a result, the related assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows of East and ApothecaryRx have been classified as discontinued operations. In addition, we have discontinued operations related to our discontinued  internet sales division and discontinued film operations. The results of East, ApothecaryRx and our other discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 follows:

Noncontrolling interests were allocated approximately $131,000 and $96,000 of net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Noncontrolling interests are the equity ownership interests in our SDC Holdings subsidiaries that are not wholly-owned.
Net income (loss) attributable to Graymark Healthcare. Our operations resulted in a net loss of approximately $4.0 million (42% of approximately $13.1 million in net revenues) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, compared to a net loss of approximately $5.3 million (46% of approximately $15.7 million in net revenues) during the first nine months of 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Generally our liquidity and capital resources needs are funded from operations, loan proceeds and equity offerings. As of September 30, 2011, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and cash equivalents of $5.5 million and working capital deficit of $10.6 million. The working capital deficit is a result of classifying our Arvest Credit Facility as current due to non-compliance with certain loan covenants. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal amount of the Arvest Credit Facility was $19.2 million. As of December 31, 2010, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million and a working capital deficit of $20.5 million.
Cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was $4.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $2.5 million for the first nine months of 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the primary uses of cash from operating activities from continuing operations were cash required to fund losses from continuing operations (net of non-cash adjustments) of $2.8 million, a net reduction of accounts payable and accrued liabilities totaling $0.6 million, and an increase in accounts receivable and other assets totaling $1.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the primary uses of cash from operating activities from continuing operations were cash required to fund losses from continuing operations (net of non-cash adjustments) of $2.1 million, increase in inventories and accounts receivable totaling $0.2 million and a decrease in accrued liabilities of $0.5 million. The primary sources of cash from operating activities from continuing operations during the third quarter of 2010 was a net increase in accounts payable of $0.2 million.
Cash provided by discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $0.2 million compared to $4.5 million for the first nine months of 2010.
Net cash used by investing activities from continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was approximately $32,000 compared to the first nine months of 2010 when investing activities from continuing operations used approximately $202,000.
Net cash provided by investing activities from discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.5 million compared to the first nine months of 2010 when we used $0.3 million. In May 2011, we sold substantially all of the assets of East for $2.5 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $6.8 million compared to net cash used in financing activities of $0.5 million during the first nine months of 2010. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we raised $7.3 million and $2.0 million in a public offering and private placement offering, respectively. We also received $1.0 million in proceeds from our credit facility with Valiant Investments, LLC which was subsequently repaid with common stock in conjunction with the private placement. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we made debt payments of $3.5 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the primary use of cash from financing activities from continuing operations was debt payments totaling $0.5 million.
Net cash used in financing activities from discontinued operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1.5 million.

On the 12-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale of ApothecaryRx (December 2011), 50% of the funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund ($1.0 million) will be released, subject to deduction for any pending claims for indemnification. There are no pending indemnity claims at this time. All remaining funds held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund will be released on the 18-month anniversary of the final closing date of the sale (June 2012), subject to any pending claims for indemnification at that time. Of the $2,000,000 Indemnity Escrow Fund, $1,000,000 was subject to partial or full recovery by the buyer if the average daily prescription sales at the buyer’s location in Sterling, Colorado over a six-month period after the buyer purchased the ApothecaryRx location in Sterling, Colorado did not increase by a certain percentage of the average daily prescription sales of ApothecaryRx’s Sterling, Colorado location during a period prior to the closing (the “Retention Rate Earnout”). The six-month period has passed and there was no adjustment as a result of the Retention Rate Earnout.
Arvest Credit Facility
Effective May 21, 2008, we and each of Oliver Company Holdings, LLC, Roy T. Oliver, The Roy T. Oliver Revocable Trust, Stanton M. Nelson, Vahid Salalati, Greg Luster, Kevin Lewis, Roger Ely and, Lewis P. Zeidner (the “Guarantors”) entered into a Loan Agreement with Arvest Bank (the “Arvest Credit Facility”). The Arvest Credit Facility consolidated the prior loan to our subsidiaries, SDC Holdings and ApothecaryRx in the principal amount of $30 million (referred to as the “Term Loan”) and provided an additional credit facility in the principal amount of $15 million (the “Acquisition Line”) for total principal of $45 million. The Loan Agreement was subsequently amended in January 2009 (the “Amendment”), May 2009, July 2010 and December 2010. As of September 30, 2011, the outstanding principal amount of the Arvest Credit Facility was $19,224,492. See “Loan Agreement” below for a description of a recent consent granted by Arvest in March 2011.
Personal Guaranties. The Guarantors unconditionally guarantee payment of our obligations owed to Arvest Bank and our performance under the Loan Agreement and related documents. The initial liability of the Guarantors as a group is limited to $15 million of the last portion or dollars of our obligations collected by Arvest Bank. The liability of the Guarantors under the guaranties initially was in proportion to their ownership of our common stock as a group on a several and not joint basis. In conjunction with the employment termination of Mr. Luster, we agreed to obtain release of his guaranty. The Amendment released Mr. Luster from his personal guaranty and the personal guaranties of the other Guarantors were increased, other than the guaranties of Messrs. Salalati and Ely. During the third quarter of 2010, Mr. Oliver and Mr. Nelson assumed the personal guaranty of Mr. Salalati.
Furthermore, the Guarantors agreed to not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or create, assume or suffer to exist any pledge, lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance on the shares of our common stock owned by them that exceeds, in one or an aggregate of transactions, 20% of the respective common stock shares owned at May 21, 2008, except after notice to Arvest Bank. Also, the Guarantors agreed to not sell, transfer or permit to be transferred voluntarily or by operation of law assets owned by the applicable Guarantor that would materially impair the financial worth of the Guarantor or Arvest Bank’s ability to collect the full amount of our obligations.
Maturity Dates. Each advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line will become due on the sixth anniversary of the first day of the month following the date of advance or tranche (the “Tranche Note Maturity Date”). As of September 30, 2011, the Term Loan has an outstanding balance of $4,856,001 and will become due on May 21, 2014. The following table outlines the contractual due dates of each tranche of debt under the Acquisition Line:
                 
Tranche   Amount     Maturity Date

Interest Rate. The outstanding principal amounts of Acquisition Line and Term Loan bear interest at the greater of the prime rate as reported in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal (the “WSJ Prime Rate”) or 6% (“Floor Rate”). Prior to September 30, 2010, the Floor Rate was 5%. The WSJ Prime Rate is adjusted annually, subject to the Floor Rate, then in effect on May 21 of each year of the Term Loan and the anniversary date of each advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line. In the event of our default under the terms of the Arvest Credit Facility, the outstanding principal will bear interest at the per annum rate equal to the greater of 15% or the WSJ Prime Rate plus 5%.

Interest and Principal Payments. Provided we are not in default, the Term Note is payable in quarterly payments of accrued and unpaid interest on each September 1, December 1, March 1, and June 1. Commencing on September 1, 2011, and quarterly thereafter on each December 1, March 1, June 1 and September 1, we are obligated to make equal payments of principal and interest calculated on a seven-year amortization of the unpaid principal balance of the Term Note as of June 1, 2011 at the then current WSJ Prime Rate or Floor Rate, and adjusted annually thereafter for any changes to the WSJ Prime Rate or Floor Rate as provided herein. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Term Note plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be due and payable on May 21, 2014.
Furthermore, each advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line is repaid in quarterly payments of interest only for up to three years and thereafter, principal and interest payments based on a seven-year amortization until the balloon payment on the Tranche Note Maturity Date. We agreed to pay accrued and unpaid interest only at the WSJ Prime Rate or Floor Rate in quarterly payments on each advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line for the first three years of the term of the advance or tranche commencing three months after the first day of the month following the date of advance and on the first day of each third month thereafter. Commencing on the third anniversary of the first quarterly payment date, and each following anniversary thereof, the principal balance outstanding on an advance or tranche of the Acquisition Line, together with interest at the WSJ Prime Rate or Floor Rate on the most recent anniversary date of the date of advance, will be amortized in quarterly payments over a seven-year term beginning on the third anniversary of the date of advance, and recalculated each anniversary thereafter over the remaining portion of such seven-year period at the then applicable WSJ Prime Rate or Floor Rate. The entire unpaid principal balance of the Acquisition Line plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon will be due and payable on the respective Tranche Note Maturity Date.
Use of Proceeds. All proceeds of the Term Loan were used solely for the funding of the acquisition and refinancing of the existing indebtedness and loans owed to Intrust Bank, the refinancing of the existing indebtedness owed to Arvest Bank; and other costs we incurred by Arvest Bank in connection with the preparation of the loan documents, subject to approval by Arvest Bank.
The proceeds of the Acquisition Line were to be used solely for the funding of up to 70% of either the purchase price of the acquisition of existing pharmacy business assets or sleep testing facilities or the startup costs of new sleep centers and other costs incurred by us or Arvest Bank in connection with the preparation of the Loan Agreement and related documents, subject to approval by Arvest Bank.
Collateral. Payment and performance of our obligations under the Arvest Credit Facility are secured by the personal guaranties of the Guarantors and in general our assets. If the Company sells any assets which are collateral for the Arvest Credit Facility, then subject to certain exceptions and without the consent of Arvest Bank, such sale proceeds must be used to reduce the amounts outstanding to Arvest Bank.
Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Based on the latest four rolling quarters, we agreed to continuously maintain a “Debt Service Coverage Ratio” of not less than 1.25 to 1. Debt Service Coverage Ratio is, for any period, the ratio of:
    the net income of Graymark Healthcare (i) increased (to the extent deducted in determining net income) by the sum, without duplication, of our interest expense, amortization, depreciation, and non-recurring expenses as approved by Arvest, and (ii) decreased (to the extent included in determining net income and without duplication) by the amount of minority interest share of net income and distributions to minority interests for taxes, if any, to
    the annual debt service including interest expense and current maturities of indebtedness as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
If we acquire another company or its business, the net income of the acquired company and the new debt service associated with acquiring the company may both be excluded from the Debt Service Coverage Ratio, at our option.

Compliance with Financial Covenants. As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s Debt Service Coverage Ratio is less than 1.25 to 1. In June 2011, the Company prepaid approximately $1.1 million in principal and interest to Arvest Bank and as a result, Arvest Bank has waived the Debt Service Coverage Ratio requirement through December 31, 2011. The prepayment represents all principal and interest payments due to Arvest Bank between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. The prepayment is reflected in other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. The prepayment will be recorded as interest expense and a reduction of principal in accordance with the loan agreement. There is no assurance that Arvest Bank will waive the Debt Service Coverage Ratio requirement beyond December 31, 2011. Since the waiver does not extend past twelve months from September 30, 2011, the associated debt with Arvest Bank has been classified as current in our consolidated balance sheets. There are no assurances that Arvest Bank will waive the debt covenant violation beyond December 31, 2011. However, we have historically been successful in obtaining waivers from Arvest Bank.
Default and Remedies. In addition to the general defaults of failure to perform our obligations and those of the Guarantors, collateral casualties, misrepresentation, bankruptcy, entry of a judgment of $50,000 or more, failure of first liens on collateral, default also includes our delisting by The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. In the event a default is not cured within 10 days or in some case five days following notice of the default by Arvest Bank (and in the case of failure to perform a payment obligation for three times with notice), Arvest Bank will have the right to declare the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest immediately due and payable.
Deposit Account Control Agreement. Effective September 30, 2010, we entered into a Deposit Control Agreement (“Deposit Agreement”) with Arvest Bank and Valliance Bank covering the deposit accounts that we have at Valliance Bank. The Deposit Agreement requires Valliance Bank to comply with instructions originated by Arvest Bank directing the disposition of the funds held by us at Valliance Bank without our further consent. Without Arvest Bank’s consent, we cannot close any of our deposit accounts at Valliance Bank or open any additional accounts at Valliance Bank. Arvest Bank may exercise its rights to give instructions to Valliance Bank under the Deposit Agreement only in the event of an uncured default under the Loan Agreement, as amended.
Loan Agreement
On March 16, 2011, we entered into a Loan Agreement with Valiant Investments, LLC, an entity owned and controlled by Roy T. Oliver one of our controlling shareholders, of up to $1 million. We used the loan proceeds to fund our working capital needs. We fully advanced the loan during the third quarter of 2011 and in May 2011, we repaid the loan with common stock as part of our private placement offering.
On March 11, 2011, we received the consent of Arvest to obtain this loan and requirements for payments of interest and principal on this loan and Arvest will waive the debt service coverage ratio and minimum net worth covenants through December 31, 2011 on the following conditions:
    On or before September 30, 2011, Graymark will pay to Arvest the greater of $3 million or one-third of the proceeds of any public equity offering (we made a $3 million payment to Arvest on May 12, 2011);
    On or before September 30, 2011, Graymark will pay Arvest a fee equal to 0.25% of the outstanding loan balance as of September 30, 2011 (we paid this fee on September 30, 2011);
    If Graymark is not in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio and minimum net worth covenants on December 31, 2011, Graymark will pay Arvest a fee equal to 0.50% of the then outstanding balance of the loan (which does not cure any default in such covenants);
    On September 30, 2011, Graymark will prepay all interest and principal payments due to Arvest between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 (we made this prepayment in the amount of $1.1 million on September 30, 2011);
    On September 30, 2011, if Graymark has received at least $15 million in proceeds from a public equity offering then Graymark will escrow with Arvest all principal and interest payments due to Arvest between January 1, 2012 and September 30, 2012 (our public offering did not exceed $15 million);

    Graymark may not repay any amounts on the $1 million loan from Valiant Investments before August 1, 2011 except that Graymark may repay such loan in full if Graymark has received more than $10 million in proceeds from a public equity offering and if Graymark has received less than $10 million from a public equity offering then Graymark will be permitted to make interest payments only on such loan; and
    The $1 million Valiant Investments loan is subordinated to Arvest’s credit facility in all respects (the Valiant Investments loan was converted into shares of our common stock in May 2011).
Financial Commitments
Our future commitments under contractual obligations by expected maturity date at September 30, 2011 are as follows:

(1)   Includes principal and interest obligations.
Our uses of cash for the next twelve months will be principally for working capital needs and debt service as we do not have any material capital expenditures planned, however, we do have contractual commitments of approximately $21.9 million for payments on our indebtedness and for operating lease payments. Included in the long-term debt obligations due in the next twelve months is our Arvest Credit Facility of $19.2 million. The Arvest Credit Facility is currently classified as current due to non-compliance with certain loan covenants. There are no assurances that Arvest Bank will waive the debt covenant violation beyond December 31, 2011. However, management has historically been successful in obtaining waivers from Arvest Bank. Assuming we are successful in obtaining a waiver of our debt covenant violation beyond December 31, 2011, we believe we have sufficient liquidity from cash and cash equivalents on hand and funds that will be received from the Indemnity Escrow Fund to fund our operations for the next twelve months.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include amounts based on management’s prudent judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Management believes that any reasonable deviation from those judgments and estimates would not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. To the extent that the estimates used differ from actual results, however, adjustments to the statement of earnings and corresponding balance sheet accounts would be necessary. These adjustments would be made in future statements. For a complete discussion of all our significant accounting policies please see our 2010 annual report on Form 10-K. Some of the more significant estimates include revenue recognition, allowance for contractual adjustments and doubtful accounts, and goodwill and intangible asset impairment. We use the following methods to determine our estimates:
Revenue recognition — Sleep center services and product sales are recognized in the period in which services and related products are provided to customers and are recorded at net realizable amounts estimated to be paid by customers and third-party payers. Insurance benefits are assigned to us and, accordingly, we bill on behalf of our customers. For our sleep diagnostic business, we estimate the net realizable amount based primarily on the contracted rates stated in the contracts we have with various payors. We have used this method to determine the net revenue for the business acquired from somniCare, Inc. and somniTech, Inc. (“Somni”) business since the date of the acquisition in 2009 and for our remaining sleep diagnostic business since the fourth quarter of 2010. We do not anticipate any future changes to this process. In our historic sleep therapy business, the business has been predominantly

out-of-network and as a result, we have not had contract rates to use for determining net revenue for a majority of our payors. For this portion of the business, we perform a quarterly analysis of actual reimbursement from each third party payor for the most recent 12-months. In the analysis, we calculate the percentage actually paid by each third party payor of the amount billed to determine the applicable amount of net revenue for each payor. The key assumption in this process is that actual reimbursement history is a reasonable predictor of the future reimbursement for each payor at each facility. During the fourth quarter of 2010, we migrated much of our historic sleep diagnostic business to an in-network position. As a result, commencing with the fourth quarter of 2010, the revenue from our historic sleep diagnostic business was determined using the process utilized in the Somni business. We expect to transition our historic sleep therapy business to the same process currently used for our sleep diagnostic business by the end of 2011. This change in process and assumptions for our historic sleep therapy business is not expected to have a material impact on future operating results.
For certain sleep therapy and other equipment sales, reimbursement from third-party payers occur over a period of time, typically 10 to 13 months. We recognize revenue on these sales as payments are earned over the payment period stipulated by the third-party payor.
We have established an allowance to account for contractual adjustments that result from differences between the amount billed and the expected realizable amount. Actual adjustments that result from differences between the payment amount received and the expected realizable amount are recorded against the allowance for contractual adjustments and are typically identified and ultimately recorded at the point of cash application or when otherwise determined pursuant to our collection procedures. Revenues are reported net of such adjustments.
Due to the nature of the healthcare industry and the reimbursement environment in which we operate, certain estimates are required to record net revenues and accounts receivable at their net realizable values at the time products or services are provided. Inherent in these estimates is the risk that they will have to be revised or updated as additional information becomes available, which could have a material impact on our operating results and cash flows in subsequent periods. Specifically, the complexity of many third-party billing arrangements and the uncertainty of reimbursement amounts for certain services from certain payers may result in adjustments to amounts originally recorded.
The patient and their third party insurance provider typically share in the payment for our products and services. The amount patients are responsible for includes co-payments, deductibles, and amounts not covered due to the provider being out-of-network. Due to uncertainties surrounding deductible levels and the number of out-of-network patients, we are not certain of the full amount of patient responsibility at the time of service. Starting in 2010, we implemented a process to estimate amounts due from patients prior to service and increase collection of those amounts prior to service. Remaining amounts due from patients are then billed following completion of service.
Cost of Services and Sales — Cost of services includes technician labor required to perform sleep diagnostics, fees associated with interpreting the results of the sleep study and disposable supplies used in providing sleep diagnostics. Cost of sales includes the acquisition cost of sleep therapy products sold. Costs of services are recorded in the time period the related service is provided. Cost of sales is recorded in the same time period that the related revenue is recognized. If the revenue from the sale is recognized over a specified period, the product cost associated with that sale is recognized over that same period. If the revenue from a product sale is recognized in one period, the cost of sale is recorded in the period the product was sold.
Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are reported net of allowances for contractual adjustments and doubtful accounts. The majority of our accounts receivable is due from private insurance carriers, Medicare and Medicaid and other third-party payors, as well as from customers under co-insurance and deductible provisions.
Third-party reimbursement is a complicated process that involves submission of claims to multiple payers, each having its own claims requirements. Adding to this complexity, a significant portion of our business has historically been out-of-network with several payors, which means we do not have defined contracted reimbursement rates with these payors. For this reason, our systems reported revenue at a higher gross billed amount, which we adjusted to an expected net amount based on historic payments. This process continues in our historic sleep therapy business, but was changed in the fourth quarter of 2010 for our historic sleep diagnostic

business. As a result, the reserve for contractual allowance has been reduced, compared to the same periods in 2010, as our systems now report a larger portion of our business at estimated net contract rates. As we continue to move more of our business to in-network contracting, the level of reserve related to contractual allowances is expected to decrease. In some cases, the ultimate collection of accounts receivable subsequent to the service dates may not be known for several months. As these accounts age, the risk of collection increases and the resulting reserves for bad debt expense reflect this longer payment cycle. We have established an allowance to account for contractual adjustments that result from differences between the amounts billed to customers and third-party payers and the expected realizable amounts. The percentage and amounts used to record the allowance for doubtful accounts are supported by various methods including current and historical cash collections, contractual adjustments, and aging of accounts receivable.
We offer payment plans to patients for amounts due from them for the sales and services we provide. For patients with a balance of $500 or less, we allow a maximum of three months for the patient to pay the amount due. For patients with a balance over $500, we allow a maximum of six months to pay the full amount due. The minimum monthly payment amount for both plans is calculated based on the down payment and the remaining balance divided by three or six months, respectively.
Accounts are written-off as bad debt using a specific identification method. For amounts due from patients, we utilize a collections process that includes distributing monthly account statements. For patients that are not on a payment plan, collection efforts including collection letters and collection calls begin at 60 days from the initial statement. If the patient is on a payment program, these efforts begin within 30 days of the patient failing to make a planned payment. For our diagnostic patients, we submit patient receivables to an outside collection agency if the patient has failed to pay 120 days following service or, if the patient is on a payment plan, they have failed to make two consecutive payments. For our therapy patients, patient receivables are submitted to an outside collection agency if payment has not been received between 180 and 240 days following service depending on the service provided and circumstances of the receivable or, if the patient is on a payment plan, they have failed to make two consecutive payments. It is our policy to write-off as bad debt all patient receivables at the time they are submitted to an outside collection agency. If funds are recovered by our collection agency, the amounts previously written-off are accounted for as a recovery of bad debt. For amounts due from third party payors, it is our policy to write-off an account receivable to bad debt based on the specific circumstances related to that claim resulting in a determination that there is no further recourse for collection of a denied claim from the denying payor.
Included in accounts receivable are earned but unbilled receivables. Unbilled accounts receivable represent charges for services delivered to customers for which invoices have not yet been generated by the billing system. Prior to the delivery of services or equipment and supplies to customers, we perform certain certification and approval procedures to ensure collection is reasonably assured and that unbilled accounts receivable is recorded at net amounts expected to be paid by customers and third-party payers. Billing delays, ranging from several weeks to several months, can occur due to delays in obtaining certain required payer-specific documentation from internal and external sources, interim transactions occurring between cycle billing dates established for each customer within the billing system and new sleep centers awaiting assignment of new provider enrollment identification numbers. In the event that a third-party payer does not accept the claim for payment, the customer is ultimately responsible.
A summary of the Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) and management’s expectations follows:
                                 
    September 30, 2011     December 31, 2010  
    Actual     Expected     Actual     Expected  
Sleep diagnostic business
    55.48       45 to 50       48.62       50 to 55  
Sleep therapy business
    66.96       55 to 60       51.30       55 to 60  
Our DSO for September 20, 2011 was above expectations for both our diagnostic and therapy business. In both businesses, we saw an increase in the balances in our aging categories over 180 days, which are our highest reserve rate categories. We have identified specific action plans to address the claims in these categories and expect our DSO to return to expected levels in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets — Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of the acquired business. Goodwill and other indefinitely-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment reviews, or more frequent reviews if events or circumstances indicate there may be an impairment of goodwill.

Table of Contents

Intangible assets other than goodwill which include customer relationships, customer files, covenants not to compete, trademarks and payor contracts are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight line method. The remaining lives range from three to fifteen years. We evaluate the recoverability of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an intangible asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
Adopted Guidance
On January 1, 2011, we adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to revenue recognition for multiple-deliverable arrangements. These changes require separation of consideration received in such arrangements by establishing a selling price hierarchy (not the same as fair value) for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which will be based on available information in the following order: vendor-specific objective evidence, third-party evidence, or estimated selling price; eliminate the residual method of allocation and require that the consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the arrangement to each deliverable on the basis of each deliverable’s selling price; require that a vendor determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis; and expand the disclosures related to multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements, as we do not currently have any such arrangements with its customers.
On January 1, 2011, we adopted changes issued by the FASB to disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. Specifically, the changes require a reporting entity to disclose, in the reconciliation of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), separate information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number). The adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2011, we adopted changes issued by the FASB to the testing of goodwill for impairment. These changes require an entity to perform all steps in the test for a reporting unit whose carrying value is zero or negative if it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that a goodwill impairment exists based on qualitative factors. This will result in the elimination of an entity’s ability to assert that such a reporting unit’s goodwill is not impaired and additional testing is not necessary despite the existence of qualitative factors that indicate otherwise. Based on the most recent impairment review of our goodwill (2010 fourth quarter), the adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2011, we adopted changes issued by the FASB to the disclosure of pro forma information for business combinations. These changes clarify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. Also, the existing supplemental pro forma disclosures were expanded to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Issued Guidance
In July 2011, the FASB issued “Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities” (ASU 2011-07), which requires healthcare organizations that perform services for patients for which the ultimate collection of all or a portion of the amounts billed or billable cannot be determined at the time services are rendered to present all bad debt expense associated with patient service revenue as an offset to the patient service revenue line item in the statement of operations. The ASU also requires qualitative disclosures about the our policy for recognizing revenue and bad debt expense for patient service transactions and quantitative information about the effects of changes in the assessment of collectability of patient service revenue. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and will be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2012. We are currently assessing the potential impact the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial position.

In September 2011, the FASB issued changes to the testing of goodwill for impairment. These changes provide an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not (more than 50%) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Such qualitative factors may include the following: macroeconomic conditions; industry and market considerations; cost factors; overall financial performance; and other relevant entity-specific events. If an entity elects to perform a qualitative assessment and determines that an impairment is more likely than not, the entity is then required to perform the existing two-step quantitative impairment test, otherwise no further analysis is required. An entity also may elect not to perform the qualitative assessment and, instead, go directly to the two-step quantitative impairment test. These changes become effective for us for any goodwill impairment test performed on January 1, 2012 or later, although early adoption is permitted. We perform a review of our goodwill in the fourth quarter of each calendar year and plan to early adopt these changes effective for our review of goodwill in the fourth quarter of 2011. As these changes should not affect the outcome of the impairment analysis of a reporting unit, we have determined these changes will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Cautionary Statement Relating to Forward Looking Information
We have included some forward-looking statements in this section and other places in this report regarding our expectations. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, business plans or objectives, levels of activity, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, business plans or objectives, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some of these forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology including “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should” or “anticipates” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategies that involve risks and uncertainties. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they
    discuss our future expectations;
    contain projections of our future operating results or of our future financial condition; or
    state other “forward-looking” information.
We believe it is important to discuss our expectations; however, it must be recognized that events may occur in the future over which we have no control and which we are not accurately able to predict. Readers are cautioned to consider the specific business risk factors described in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K and not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report or our Annual Report, which speak only as of the date of this report or the date of our Annual Report. We undertake no obligation to publicly revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report.
Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting entity as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and as such, are not required to provide the information required by Item 305 of Regulation S-K with respect to Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management (with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer) evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of September 30, 2011. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Material Weakness
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
During the fourth quarter of 2010 and as part of the sale of ApothecaryRx assets, we incurred significant charges related to the accounts receivable and inventory balances at ApothecaryRx. In addition, we noted additional control deficiencies that in aggregate with the material special charges incurred at ApothecaryRx caused us to conclude that we had a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Although the accounts receivable trends and the inventory physical counts related to the ApothecaryRx throughout prior periods did not generate unusual results or cause us to question the validity of the accounts to receivable or inventory balances, we feel that the significant charges recorded as a result of adjusting the inventory and accounts receivable amounts to their net realizable value subsequent to the sale of the ApothecaryRx assets represented a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.
Since the operations of ApothecaryRx were sold, no remediation efforts were needed related to those specific control deficiencies. However, due to the significance of the ApothecaryRx special charges, we began an evaluation of the circumstances and potential changes to our entity wide controls to address the other identified control deficiencies. We have not identified any additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, but we have identified areas of improvement to eliminate identified control deficiencies, including enhancing the level of documentation and testing of our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings.
In the normal course of business, we may become involved in litigation or in legal proceedings. We are not aware of any such litigation or legal proceedings, that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Item 1A.   Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
