NOTE A – ORGANIZATION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Vaso Corporation was incorporated in Delaware in July 1987. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “we”, “our”, “us”, “Company”, “registrant”, “Vaso” or “management” refer to Vaso Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Overview
Vaso Corporation principally operates in three distinct business segments in the healthcare and information technology (“IT”) industries. We manage and evaluate our operations, and report our financial results, through these three business segments.
● | IT segment, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary VasoTechnology, Inc., primarily focuses on healthcare IT and managed network technology services; |
● | Professional sales service segment, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary Vaso Diagnostics, Inc. d/b/a VasoHealthcare, primarily focuses on the sale of healthcare capital equipment for GE Healthcare (“GEHC”) into the healthcare provider middle market; and |
● | Equipment segment, primarily focuses on the design, manufacture, sale and service of proprietary medical devices and software, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary VasoMedical, Inc., which in turn operates through Vasomedical Solutions, Inc. for domestic business and Vasomedical Global Corp. for international business, respectively. |
VasoTechnology
VasoTechnology, Inc. was formed in May 2015, at the time the Company acquired all of the assets of NetWolves, LLC and its affiliates, including the membership interests in NetWolves Network Services, LLC (collectively, “NetWolves”). It currently consists of a managed network and security service division and a healthcare IT application VAR (value added reseller) division, VasoHealthcare IT. Its current offerings include:
● | Managed radiology and imaging applications (channel partner of select vendors of healthcare IT products). |
● | Managed network infrastructure (routers, switches and other core equipment). |
● | Managed network transport (FCC licensed carrier reselling over 175 facility partners). |
● | Managed security services. |
VasoTechnology uses a combination of proprietary technology, methodology and third-party applications to deliver its value proposition.
VasoHealthcare
VasoHealthcare commenced operations in 2010, in conjunction with the Company’s execution of its exclusive sales representation agreement (“GEHC Agreement”) with GEHC to further the sale of certain healthcare capital equipment in the healthcare provider middle market. Sales of GEHC equipment by the Company have grown significantly since then.
VasoHealthcare’s current offerings consist of:
● | GEHC diagnostic imaging capital equipment and ultrasound systems. |
● | GEHC service agreements for the above equipment. |
● | GEHC training services for use of the above equipment. |
● | GEHC and third-party financial services. |

VasoMedical
VasoMedical is the Company’s business division for its proprietary medical device operations, including the design, development, manufacturing, sales and service of various medical devices in the domestic and international markets and includes the Vasomedical Global and Vasomedical Solutions business units. These devices are primarily for cardiovascular monitoring and diagnostic systems. Its current offerings consist of:
● | Biox™ series Holter monitors and ambulatory blood pressure recorders. |
● | ARCS® series analysis, reporting and communication software for ECG and blood pressure signals. |
● | MobiCare® multi-parameter wireless vital-sign monitoring system. |
● | EECP® therapy systems for non-invasive, outpatient treatment of ischemic heart disease. |
This segment uses its extensive cardiovascular device knowledge coupled with its significant engineering resources to cost-effectively create and market its proprietary technology. It works with a global distribution network of channel partners to sell its products. It also provides engineering and OEM services to other medical device companies.
Achari Business Combination Agreement
As previously announced, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), dated as of December 6, 2023, with Achari Ventures Holdings Corp. I, a Delaware corporation (“Achari”) (NASDAQ: AVHI), and Achari Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Achari (“Merger Sub”). The Business Combination Agreement provides, among other things, that on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Achari. Upon the closing of the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), we anticipate that Achari will change its name to “Vaso Holdings Corp.” or an alternative name chosen by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Achari (“New Vaso”). The Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Business Combination”.
Upon the Closing, New Vaso
would have authorized shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock. The Business Combination Agreement establishes a pro forma
equity value of the Company at approximately $
The Boards of Directors of
Vaso and Achari have each approved the Business Combination, the consummation of which is subject to various customary closing conditions,
including the filing and effectiveness of a Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended or supplemented, (the “Registration Statement”)
by Achari with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the filing of a proxy statement by Vaso with
the SEC and clearance by the SEC, and the approval of a majority of shareholders of both Achari and Vaso of the proposed Business Combination.
At the time of this filing, Achari shareholders have approved the Business Combination at a virtual meeting, and Vaso has scheduled a
special shareholders meeting for August 26, 2024 seeking their approval as well (Vaso shareholders representing approximately

NOTE B – INTERIM STATEMENT PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the companies over which we exercise control. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of interim results for the Company. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and cash flows during the periods presented. Actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates. The estimates and assumptions the Company makes are based on historical factors, current circumstances and the experience and judgment of the Company’s management. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.
Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements
We record commission revenue for certain products in our professional sales service segment based on GEHC’s reporting and payment of such commissions to us. In late August 2023, GEHC informed the Company that its calculations for such products were partially inaccurate and had remitted excess commissions. The Company has taken immediate steps to implement additional internal control procedures whereby GEHC will provide additional information sufficient to assess the accuracy of such commission payments going forward. We assessed the materiality of this misstatement on prior periods’ financial statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 1.M, Materiality, codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, (“ASC 250”) and concluded that the misstatements were not material to the prior annual or interim periods.
Accordingly, in accordance
with ASC 250 (SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements), we have increased the accumulated deficit at January 1, 2023 by $

Recently Issued Accounting Standards To Be Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures, including disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table and disaggregated information related to income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvement to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU enhances disclosures required for reportable segments in both annual and interim consolidated financial statements. The ASU, which requires retrospective application, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning with the year ending December 31, 2024, and interim periods beginning with the three months ending March 31, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Contract Balances
Contract
receivables include trade receivables, net and long-term receivables (recorded in Other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets).
Contract liabilities arise in our healthcare IT, VasoHealthcare, and VasoMedical businesses. In our healthcare IT business, payment
arrangements with clients typically include an initial payment due upon contract signing and milestone-based payments based upon product
delivery and go-live, as well as post go-live monthly payments for subscription and support fees. Customer payments received, or receivables
recorded, in advance of go-live and customer acceptance, where applicable, are deferred as contract liabilities. Such amounts aggregated
approximately $
In our VasoHealthcare business,
we bill amounts for certain milestones in advance of customer acceptance of the underlying equipment. Such amounts aggregated approximately
$
In our VasoMedical business,
we bill amounts for post-delivery services and varying duration service contracts in advance of performance. Such amounts aggregated approximately
$
During the three and six months
ended June 30, 2024, we recognized approximately $

The decrease in contract receivables in the first halves of 2024 and 2023 was due primarily to collections exceeding billings.
Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires that incremental costs of obtaining a contract are recognized as an asset and amortized to expense in a pattern that matches the timing of the revenue recognition of the related contract. We have determined the only significant incremental costs incurred to obtain contracts with customers within the scope of Topic 606 are certain sales commissions paid to associates. In addition, the Company elected the practical expedient to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract when incurred for contracts where the amortization period for the asset the Company would otherwise have recognized is one year or less.
Page 11
Vaso Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Under
Topic 606, sales commissions applicable to service contracts exceeding one year have been capitalized and amortized ratably over the term
of the contract. In our VHC IT business, commissions allocable to multi-year subscription contracts or multi-year post-contract
support performance obligations are amortized to expense ratably over the terms of the multi-year periods. VHC IT commissions allocable
to other elements are charged to expense at go-live or customer acceptance. In our professional sales services segment, commissions
paid to our sales force are deferred until the underlying equipment is accepted by the customer. We recognized approximately $
At
June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, our consolidated balance sheets include approximately $
Significant Judgments when Applying Topic 606
Contract transaction price is allocated to performance obligations using estimated stand-alone selling price. Judgment is required in estimating stand-alone selling price for each distinct performance obligation. We determine stand-alone selling price maximizing observable inputs such as stand-alone sales when they exist or substantive renewal price charged to clients. In instances where stand-alone selling price is not observable, we utilize an estimate of stand-alone selling price based on historical pricing and industry practices.
Certain revenue we record in our professional sales service segment contains an estimate for variable consideration. Due to the tiered structure of our commission rate, which increases as annual targets are achieved, under Topic 606 we record revenue and deferred revenue at the rate we expect to be achieved by year end. We base our estimate of variable consideration on historical results of previous years’ achievement under the GEHC agreement. Such estimate is reviewed each quarter and adjusted as necessary. In addition, the Company records commissions for arranging financing at an estimated rate which is subject to later revision based on certain factors.
The Company also records commission adjustments to contract liabilities in its professional sales service segment based on estimates of future order cancellations.

and non-cash stock-based compensation). Administrative functions such as finance, human resources, and information technology are centralized
and related expenses allocated to each segment. Other costs not directly attributable to operating segments, such as audit, legal, director
fees, investor relations, and others, as well as certain assets – primarily cash balances – are reported in the Corporate
entity below. There are no intersegment revenues.

NOTE F – SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The
Company’s short-term investments consist of bank deposits with yields based on underlying debt and equity securities and six-month US
Treasury bills. The bank deposits are carried at fair value of $
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash and short-term, highly liquid investments either in certificates of deposit, treasury bills, money market funds, or investment grade commercial paper issued by major corporations and financial institutions that generally have maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.
The Company complies with the provisions of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). Under ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Page 14
Vaso Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying amount of assets and liabilities including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, prepaids, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximated their fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, due to the relative short maturity of these instruments. Property and equipment, intangible assets, capital lease obligations, and goodwill are not required to be re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are evaluated for impairment if certain triggering events occur. If such evaluation indicates that impairment exists, the respective asset is written down to its fair value.

General Overview
COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on economies of the United States and the world, and it is possible that some negative impact to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations may continue. The pandemic caused workforce and travel restrictions and created business disruptions in supply chain, production and demand across many business sectors, and we have experienced negative impact in the recurring revenue business in our IT segment as some of our customers have been adversely affected by the shutdown, and new business in this segment appears to be slower as well. In addition, revenues in our China operations were adversely affected by its government’s lockdown policies, which have only recently been reversed.
Our Business Segments
Vaso Corporation (“Vaso”) was incorporated in Delaware in July 1987. We principally operate in three distinct business segments in the healthcare and information technology industries. We manage and evaluate our operations, and report our financial results, through these three business segments.
● | IT segment, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary VasoTechnology, Inc., primarily focuses on healthcare IT and managed network technology services; |
● | Professional sales service segment, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary Vaso Diagnostics, Inc. d/b/a VasoHealthcare, primarily focuses on the sale of healthcare capital equipment for GEHC into the healthcare provider middle market; and |
● | Equipment segment, primarily focuses on the design, manufacture, sale and service of proprietary medical devices and software, operating through a wholly-owned subsidiary VasoMedical, Inc., which in turn operates through Vasomedical Solutions, Inc. for domestic business and Vasomedical Global Corp. for international business, respectively. |

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events, our actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates. The estimates made are based on historical factors, current circumstances, and the experience and judgment of our management, who continually evaluate the judgments, estimates and assumptions and may employ outside experts to assist in the evaluations.
Certain of our accounting policies are deemed “critical”, as they are both most important to the financial statement presentation and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, see Note B to the condensed consolidated financial statements and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024.
Results of Operations – For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenues
Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $20,226,000 and $20,323,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $97,000, or less than 1% year-over-year. On a segment basis, revenue in the IT, professional sales services, and equipment segments increased/(decreased) $156,000, ($30,000), and ($223,000), respectively.
Revenue in the IT segment for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $10,591,000 compared to $10,435,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $156,000, or 1%, of which $523,000 resulted from higher network service revenues, offset by $367,000 lower revenues in the healthcare IT business. Our monthly recurring revenue in the IT segment accounted for $8,804,000 or 83% of the segment revenue in the second quarter of 2024, and $9,357,000 or 90% of the segment revenue for the same quarter last year (see Note C to condensed consolidated financial statements).
Commission revenues in the professional sales service segment were $9,110,000 in the second quarter of 2024, a decrease of $30,000, or less than 1%, as compared to $9,140,000 in the same quarter of 2023. The decrease in commission revenues was due primarily to lower deliveries of diagnostic imaging equipment, largely offset by increased deliveries of ultrasound products, by GEHC in the second quarter of 2024, as compared to the second quarter of 2023, and by slightly higher blended commission rates. The Company only recognizes commission revenue when the underlying equipment has been accepted at the customer site in accordance with the specific terms of the sales agreement. Consequently, amounts billable, or billed and received, under the agreement with GE Healthcare prior to customer acceptance of the equipment are recorded as deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2024, $31,696,000 in deferred commission revenue was recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, of which $15,774,000 was long-term. As of June 30, 2023, $33,578,000 in deferred commission revenue was recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, of which $16,722,000 was long-term. The decrease in deferred revenue is principally due to a decrease in new orders booked.
Revenue in the equipment segment decreased by $223,000, or 30%, to $525,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 from $748,000 for the same period of the prior year, due to lower sales of ARCS® cloud software as a service (SaaS) in the US, mainly due to the loss of a large customer for its inability to pay, and lower equipment deliveries in our China operations.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $12,151,000, or 60% of revenue, and $12,696,000, or 62% of revenue, respectively, representing a decrease of $545,000, or 4% year-over-year. On a segment basis, gross profit in the IT, professional sales service, and equipment segments decreased $160,000, or 3%; $224,000, or 3%; and $161,000, or 29%, respectively.
Page 22
Vaso Corporation and Subsidiaries
IT segment gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $4,582,000, or 43% of the segment revenue, compared to $4,742,000, or 45% of the segment revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The year-over-year decrease of $160,000, or 3%, was primarily a result of product mix change reflecting higher network service revenues and lower healthcare IT revenues, and by higher costs in both businesses.
Professional sales service segment gross profit was $7,173,000, or 79% of segment revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $7,397,000, or 81% of the segment revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting a decrease of $224,000, or 3%. The decrease in absolute dollars was primarily due to higher cost of commissions associated with increased ultrasound deliveries and by slightly lower commission revenue. Cost of commissions in the professional sales service segment of $1,937,000 and $1,743,000, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflected commission expense associated with recognized commission revenues.
Commission expense associated with short-term deferred revenue is recorded as short-term deferred commission expense, or with long-term deferred revenue as part of other assets, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets until the related commission revenue is recognized.
Equipment segment gross profit decreased to $396,000, or 75% of segment revenues, for the second quarter of 2024 compared to $557,000, or 74% of segment revenues, for the same quarter of 2023. The $161,000, or 29%, decrease in gross profit was the result of lower equipment revenue during the quarter partially offset by lower ARCS® software costs.
Operating Income
Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $996,000 and $1,817,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $821,000, or 45%, due primarily to the decrease in gross profit, higher selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) costs and transaction costs associated with the Achari Business Combination. On a segment basis, the IT segment recorded an operating loss of $173,000 in the second quarter of 2024 as compared to operating income of $163,000 in the same period of 2023; the professional sales service segment recorded operating income of $1,658,000 in the second quarter of 2024 as opposed to operating income of $2,058,000 in the same period of 2023; and the equipment segment recorded an operating loss of $291,000 in the second quarter of 2024 as compared to an operating loss of $106,000 in the same period of 2023.
Operating loss in the IT segment was $173,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to operating income of $163,000 in the same period of 2023, due mainly to higher SG&A costs and lower gross profit. Operating income in the professional sales service segment decreased by $400,000 to $1,658,000 in the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to operating income of $2,058,000 in the same period of 2023, due primarily to lower gross profit and higher SG&A costs. The equipment segment reported an operating loss of $291,000 in the second quarter of 2024, compared to an operating loss of $106,000 in the second quarter 2023, an increase in operating loss of $185,000, due mainly to lower gross profit.
SG&A costs for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $10,841,000 and $10,662,000, respectively, representing an increase of $179,000, or 2% year-over-year. On a segment basis, SG&A costs in the IT segment increased by $184,000 in the second quarter of 2024 from the same quarter of the prior year due mainly to higher personnel costs; SG&A costs in the professional sales service segment increased $175,000 due mainly to additional sales headcount associated with the ultrasound program; and SG&A costs in the equipment segment increased $28,000 due mainly to higher personnel costs in China. Corporate costs not allocated to segments decreased $100,000 due mainly to lower director fees.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses decreased by $12,000, or 6%, to $205,000 in the second quarter of 2024 from $217,000 for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to lower software development costs in our China operations.

Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA (earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income (loss), plus interest expense (income), net; tax expense; depreciation and amortization; and non-cash expenses for share-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric that is used by the investment community for comparative and valuation purposes. We disclose this metric in order to support and facilitate the dialogue with research analysts and investors.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for operating income, which we consider to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is set forth below:

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $887,000, to $1,201,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 from $2,088,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was attributable mainly to the decrease in net income, partially offset by the increase in income tax expense in the second quarter of 2024.
Interest and Other Income (Expense)
Interest and other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $271,000 as compared to $173,000 for the corresponding period of 2023. The increase in interest and other income (expense) was due primarily to interest income earned on higher money market and short-term investment balances in the second quarter of 2024.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded income tax expense of $112,000 as compared to $9,000 for the corresponding period of 2023. The $103,000 increase arose mainly from higher state tax expense.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $1,115,000 as compared to net income of $1,981,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, representing a decrease of $826,000. Income per share of $0.01 was recorded in both the three-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The principal cause of the decrease in net income is lower operating income, partially offset by higher interest income.

Results of Operations – For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenues
Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $38,963,000 and $39,359,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $396,000, or 1% year-over-year. On a segment basis, revenue in the IT, professional sales service, and equipment segments increased/(decreased) $34,000, ($28,000), and ($402,000), respectively.
Revenue in the IT segment for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $20,743,000 compared to $20,709,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $34,000, or less than 1%, resulting from $429,000 higher network service revenue and $395,000 lower healthcare IT revenue. Our monthly recurring revenue in the IT segment accounted for $18,105,000 or 87% of the segment revenue in the first half of 2024, and $18,878,000 or 91% of the segment revenue for the same period last year (see Note C to condensed consolidated financial statements).
Commission revenues in the professional sales service segment were $17,237,000 in the first half of 2024, a decrease of $28,000, or less than 1%, as compared to $17,265,000 in the first half of 2023. The decrease in commission revenues was due primarily to lower deliveries of diagnostic imaging equipment, largely offset by increased deliveries of ultrasound products, by GEHC in the second half of 2024, as compared to the second half of 2023, and by slightly higher blended commission rates. The Company recognizes commission revenue when the underlying equipment has been accepted at the customer site in accordance with the specific terms of the sales agreement. Consequently, amounts billable, or billed and received, under the agreement with GE Healthcare prior to customer acceptance of the equipment are recorded as deferred revenue in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2024, $31,696,000 in deferred commission revenue was recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, of which $15,774,000 was long-term. As of June 30, 2023, $33,578,000 in deferred commission revenue was recorded in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, of which $16,722,000 was long-term. The decrease in deferred revenue is principally due to a decrease in new orders booked.
Revenue in the equipment segment decreased by $402,000, or 29%, to $983,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 from $1,385,000 for the same period of the prior year, principally due to lower equipment deliveries in our China operations and lower ARCS® cloud SaaS revenues due to the loss of a large customer for its inability to pay in our US business.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $23,068,000, or 59% of revenue, and $24,258,000, or 62% of revenue, respectively, representing a decrease of $1,190,000, or 5% year-over-year. On a segment basis, gross profit in the IT, professional sales service, and equipment segments decreased $407,000, or 4%; $488,000, or 3%; and $295,000 or 28%, respectively.
IT segment gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $8,775,000, or 42% of the segment revenue, compared to $9,182,000, or 44% of the segment revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The year-over-year decrease of $407,000, or 4%, was primarily a result of product mix change reflecting higher network service revenues and lower healthcare IT revenues, and by higher costs in both businesses.
Professional sales service segment gross profit was $13,552,000, or 79% of segment revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $14,040,000, or 81% of the segment revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, reflecting a decrease of $488,000, or 3%. The decrease in absolute dollars was primarily due to higher cost of commissions associated with increased ultrasound deliveries and by slightly lower commission revenue. Cost of commissions in the professional sales service segment of $3,685,000 and $3,225,000, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflected commission expense associated with recognized commission revenues.
Commission expense associated with short-term deferred revenue is recorded as short-term deferred commission expense, or with long-term deferred revenue as part of other assets, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets until the related commission revenue is recognized.
Equipment segment gross profit increased to $741,000, or 75% of segment revenues, for the first half of 2024 compared to $1,036,000, or 75% of segment revenues, for the same half of 2023. The $295,000, or 28%, decrease in gross profit was primarily the result of lower equipment deliveries in our China operations and lower ARCS® cloud revenues in our US operations.

Operating (Loss) Income
Operating (loss) income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was ($473,000) and $2,079,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $2,552,000, or 123%, due primarily to the decrease in gross profit, higher SG&A costs and transaction costs associated with the Achari Business Combination. On a segment basis, the IT segment recorded operating loss of $593,000 in the first half of 2024 as compared to operating income of $53,000 in the same period of 2023; the professional sales service segment recorded operating income of $1,651,000 in the first half of 2024 as compared to operating income of $2,897,000 in the same period of 2023; and the equipment segment recorded an operating loss of $585,000 in the first half of 2024 as compared to an operating loss of $131,000 in the same period of 2023.
Operating loss in the IT segment was $593,000 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 as compared to operating income of $53,000 in the same period of 2023, due primarily to lower gross profit and higher SG&A costs. The professional sales service segment reported operating income of $1,651,000 in the first half of 2024, a decrease of $1,246,000 from operating income of $2,897,000 in the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, due to higher SG&A costs and lower gross profit. The equipment segment reported an operating loss of $585,000 in the first half of 2024, compared to an operating loss of $131,000 in the first half 2023, an increase in loss of $454,000 due mainly to lower gross profit and higher SG&A and R&D costs.
SG&A costs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $22,907,000 and $21,804,000, respectively, representing an increase of $1,103,000, or 5% year-over-year. On a segment basis, SG&A costs in the IT segment increased by $259,000 in the first half of 2024 from the same half of the prior year due to higher personnel costs partially offset by lower third-party commission costs; SG&A costs in the professional sales service segment increased by $758,000 due mainly to additional sales headcount associated with the ultrasound program; and SG&A costs in the equipment segment increased by $120,000 due mainly to higher personnel costs. Corporate costs not allocated to segments increased $206,000 due mainly to business combination transaction costs, partially offset by lower director fees.
Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were $396,000, or 1% of revenues, for the first half of 2024, an increase of $21,000, or 6%, from $375,000, or 1% of revenues, for the first half of 2023. The increase is primarily attributable to higher software development expenses in the equipment segment.
Business combination transaction costs reflect accounting, advisory, and other fees associated with the Achari Business Combination.
Adjusted EBITDA
We define Adjusted EBITDA (earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income (loss), plus interest expense (income), net; tax expense; depreciation and amortization; and non-cash expenses for share-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is a metric that is used by the investment community for comparative and valuation purposes. We disclose this metric in order to support and facilitate the dialogue with research analysts and investors.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for operating income, which we consider to be the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and when assessing our operating performance, you should not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation, or as a substitute for net income or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Depreciation and amortization | 411 | 537 | ||||||
Share-based compensation | 18 | 28 | ||||||
Adjusted EBITDA | $ | (65 | ) | $ | 2,579 |
Adjusted EBITDA decreased by $2,644,000 to ($65,000) in the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 from $2,579,000 in the same period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower net income and higher interest income, partially offset by higher income tax expense in the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest and Other Income (Expense)
Interest and other income (expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $579,000 as compared to $227,000 for the corresponding period of 2023. The increase in interest and other income was due primarily to higher interest income on higher money market and short-term investment balances.
Income Tax Expense
We recorded income tax expense of $124,000 and $19,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase arose mainly from higher state tax expense.
Net (Loss) Income
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $18,000 as compared to net income of $2,287,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, representing a decrease of $2,305,000, or 101%. Income/(loss) per share of ($0.00) and $0.01 was recorded in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The principal cause of the decrease in net income is lower operating income, partially offset by higher interest income in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Cash Flow
We have financed our operations from working capital. At June 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $25,652,000 and working capital of $14,053,000, compared to cash and cash equivalents of $11,342,000 and working capital of $15,059,000 at December 31, 2023.
Cash provided by operating activities was $1,718,000, which consisted of net loss after adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash of $562,000 and cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $1,156,000, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $6,019,000 for the same period in 2023. The changes in the account balances primarily reflect a decrease in accounts and other receivables of $5,086,000, partially offset by decreases in accrued commissions of $1,379,000 and accrued expenses of $2,358,000.
Cash provided by investing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 was $12,626,000 attributed to $13,756,000 in redemptions of short-term investments, offset by $787,000 used for the purchase of equipment and software and $343,000 loaned to Achari in connection with the business combination.
Cash used in financing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 was $39,000 primarily for the repayment of notes payable and finance lease obligations.
Liquidity
The Company expects to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to satisfy its obligations for at least the next twelve months.
