Basis of preparation

The Company adopted the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as the basis of preparation for the 2020 annual financial statements effective for the fiscal year-ended December 31, 2020. Previously, the Company’s financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), for the period up to and including the 9-months ended September 30, 2020. On August 28, 2020, the Company filed a Form 40-F with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This filing resulted in the Company becoming an “SEC Issuer” for purposes of National Instrument 51-102 — Continuous Disclosure Obligations and as such the Company is entitled to prepare and report its financial statements in GAAP as opposed to IFRS.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2020 have been prepared in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 270, Interim Reporting. The disclosures contained in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP do not include all the requirements of GAAP for annual financial statements. The condensed interim consolidated financial

statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on accounting policies as described in the December 31, 2020 consolidated financial statements.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company, the Subsidiaries and the Revenue Practices. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

Variable interest entities

In accordance with the FASB’s ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, a reporting entity with a variable interest in another entity is required to include the assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses of that separate entity (i.e., consolidate with the financial statements of the reporting entity) when the variable interest is determined to be a controlling financial interest. Under ASC 810, a reporting entity is considered to have a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE) if (1) the reporting entity has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impacts its economic performance and (2) the reporting entity has the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be potentially significant to the VIE.

As a result of the financial relationship established between the Company and the Revenue Practices through respective management service agreements, the Revenue Practices individually qualify as VIEs as the Company, which provides them non-medical, technical and administrative services, has the power to direct their respective activities and the obligation to absorb their gains and losses. As a result, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of the Revenue Practices, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses of the Revenue Practices are included in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The following information excludes any intercompany transactions and costs allocated by the Company to the Revenue Practices. The Revenue Practices’ assets and liabilities included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as at September 30, 2020 were $64.6 million (2019 – $58.7 million) and $2.4 million (2019 – $nil), respectively. The assets of the Revenue Practices can only be used to settle their obligations. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, the Revenue Practices’ net revenue was $110.4 million (2019 – $107.0 million) and the net contribution to the Company’s cash flow from operations was $98.6 million (2019 – $77.0 million).

The Company has a variable interest in a single purpose entity in Texas which operates an imaging center. The Company also has a variable interest in certain operations of an imaging center of another Texas entity. In both cases, the Company is not a primary beneficiary of the variable interest since it does not have any equity ownership in these entities nor does it have the power to direct the activities of either of these entities that most significantly impact the entities’ economic performance. Rather, in both cases, the Company is entitled to a management fee based upon written agreements in exchange for certain agreed upon management services. The assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses of these entities are not included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Business combinations

 

  i)

On January 1, 2020, the Company acquired, through a subsidiary, a single outpatient diagnostic imaging centre in Coral Springs, Florida, for cash consideration of approximately $2.1 million (Coral Springs Acquisition). In accordance with the transaction agreement, $100,000 of this purchase price (Holdback Fund) was withheld as security for indemnity obligations and was released to the seller during June 2020. This asset acquisition was considered a business combination. The Company has made a preliminary fair value determination of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as follows:

This acquisition was an opportunity for the Company to increase its economies of scale across Florida. The goodwill assessed on acquisition, expected to be deductible for income tax purposes, reflects the Company’s expectation of future benefits from the acquired business and workforce, and potential synergies from cost savings. The results of operations of this acquisition have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) from the acquisition date. Since the acquisition date, this acquisition contributed revenue of approximately $2.9 million and income before tax of approximately $0.5 million to the Company’s consolidated results for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

 

  ii)

On January 1, 2020, the Company acquired, through a subsidiary, a single outpatient diagnostic imaging centre in Crystal Lake, Illinois, for cash consideration of approximately $1.2 million (Crystal Lake Acquisition). In accordance with the transaction agreement, $60,000 of this purchase price (Holdback Fund) was withheld as security for indemnity obligations and was released to the seller during June 2020. This asset acquisition was considered a business combination. The Company has made a preliminary fair value determination of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities as follows:

A portion of the purchase price payable in respect of the ADG Acquisitions in 2019, specifically for SFL Radiology Holdings, LLC (Georgia business), was subject to an earn-out (the ADG Acquisition – earn-out liability) based on its annualized revenues earned in the first two quarters of 2020 less certain costs including certain operating expenses, capital expenditures and incremental working capital. In accordance with the purchase agreement, 50% of this liability is expected to be settled in the latter half of 2020 and the balance in the first half of 2021.

The value of the ADG Acquisition – earn-out liability was estimated by management using a probability weighted valuation technique related to information including revenue and operating expenses; changes in the fair value of this liability are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Management estimated the fair value of the ADG Acquisition – earn-out liability as at May 31, 2019 at approximately $14.7 million based on a discount rate of approximately 7% and management’s estimated probability weighted range of the ADG Acquisition – earn-out liability (it is considered a Level 3 liability as described in note 13; this liability was subsequently settled as noted below). An increase in the discount rate by 1.0% point decreased the value of this liability by about $0.2 million and vice versa. Subsequently, the ADG Acquisition – earn-out liability estimate was revalued at approximately $14.8 million as at December 31, 2019, at approximately $8.3 million as at March 31, 2020 and at approximately $6.2 million as at June 30, 2020 and the respective changes in fair value were recognized in financial instruments revaluation in the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2020, this liability was revalued at approximately $9.4 million based on a settlement reached pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement with the representatives of the sellers of the Company’s Georgia business and the change in fair value was recognized in financial instruments revaluation in the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As discussed in note 19, 50% of this liability was paid in November 2020 and the balance is to be paid in May 2021 pursuant to the process outlined in the related purchase agreement, a copy of which is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Amended May 2019 Loans

On June 2, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to its senior credit agreement which amended the credit agreement signed effective May 31, 2019 (such amended credit agreement, the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement). Under the terms of the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement, the Company received in May 2019 a term loan A and term loan B (Term Loan A, Term Loan B and collectively, Term Loans) of $66,000,000 and $266,000,000, respectively (face value) and a revolving credit facility of $50,000,000, which was increased to $69,000,000 on June 2, 2020 (the Revolving Facility, and together with the Term Loans, the Amended May 2019 Loans). In addition, among other things, the amendment adjusted Akumin’s leverage and fixed charge ratios for the four quarters ended March 31, 2021, providing the Company with greater flexibility in its financial ratio covenants. Sixteen million dollars of the Term Loan A was subject to a delayed draw, which was drawn by the Company in October 2019 to partly finance the West Palm Beach Acquisition. The term of the Amended May 2019 Loans is five years from May 31, 2019. The Amended May 2019 Loans can be increased by an additional $100,000,000 subject to certain conditions. The proceeds of the Term Loans were used during 2019 to settle the Syndicated Loans for $112,482,181, the principal outstanding under Subordinated Note and related accrued and unpaid interest for $1,596,250, partly finance the ADG Acquisitions and Deltona Acquisition in May 2019 and pay related debt issuance costs. On May 31, 2019, management determined the fair value of the Amended May 2019 Loans to be their face value of $319,300,000 net of debt issuance costs of approximately $14.8 million and a debt modification accounting adjustment of approximately $1.0 million related to the settlement of the Syndicated Loans. The fair value of the Amended May 2019 Loans was determined based on management’s estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing similar liabilities (it is considered a Level 3 liability as described in note 13). As at December 31, 2019, the Amended May 2019 Loans had a balance of approximately, $338.5 million. In June 2020, the amendment costs related to the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement were netted against the balance of the Amended May 2019 Loans. The above-noted amendment to the senior credit agreement in June 2020 was considered debt modification for accounting purposes. As at September 30, 2020, the Amended May 2019 Loans had an amortized cost balance of approximately, $343.9 million. As discussed in note 19, the Amended May 2019 Loans and related accrued and unpaid interest and costs were settled completely on November 2, 2020 using proceeds of the 2025 Senior Notes.

Effective November 14, 2018, the Company entered into a derivative financial instrument contract with a financial institution in order to mitigate interest rate risk under the variable interest rate Syndicated Loans (which were settled in 2019). The derivative financial instrument is an interest rate cap rate of 3.75% (LIBOR) per annum on a notional amount of 50% of the face value of the Syndicated Term Loan ($50,000,000 as at November 14, 2018). The termination date of this arrangement is August 31, 2021. The cost of this derivative financial instrument was $155,000. The Company has not designated this interest rate cap agreement as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. The fair value of this derivative as determined by the financial institution as at September 30, 2020 represented an asset to the Company of $8 (2019 - $597). As discussed in note 19, this derivative financial instrument was terminated and settled completely on November 2, 2020.

In addition, effective July 31, 2019, the Company entered into a derivative financial instrument, an interest rate collar contract (further amended in November 2019 and February 2020), with a financial institution in order to mitigate interest rate risk under the variable interest rate Term Loans. This derivative financial instrument has an underlying notional amount of 100% of the face value of Term Loan B ($266,000,000 as at July 31, 2019) and a

termination date of July 31, 2022 with (i) a cap rate of 3.00% (LIBOR) per annum, and (ii) a floor rate of 1.1475% (LIBOR) per annum. There was no upfront cost of this derivative financial instrument. The Company has not designated this interest rate cap agreement as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. The fair value of this derivative as determined by the Company as at September 30, 2020 represented a liability to the Company of $4,905,871 (2019 - $951,702). As discussed in note 19, this derivative financial instrument was terminated and settled completely on November 2, 2020.

Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the line “Financial instruments revaluation and other (gains) losses”. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred interest expense of $1,082,767 (2019 - $nil) with respect to the derivative financial instrument that was entered into in July 2019. The interest expense was paid on a monthly basis.

The Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement provides for the following (capitalized terms used below in this note and not defined elsewhere in these notes have the respective meanings given to them in the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement):

 

   

Interest

The interest rates payable on the Amended May 2019 Loans are as follows: (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at one-month LIBOR plus Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at the Base Rate (the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the prime rate and (c) Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0%) plus Applicable Rate. As part of the amendments on June 2, 2020, an additional paid-in-kind interest accrues on the outstanding Term B Loans from time to time, which interest rate shall be (i) 2.00% per annum from June 2, 2020 to March 31, 2021, and (ii) thereafter the applicable percentage per annum will be determined by reference to the leverage ratio thresholds in the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement. All advances under the Amended May 2019 Loans are currently classified as Eurodollar Rate Loans. The annualized effective interest rate under the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement as at September 30, 2020 was approximately 7.6% per annum (September 30, 2019 – 8.1%). With respect to interest rate sensitivity as at September 30, 2020, a 1% increase in variable interest rates would have increased interest expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 by approximately $0.4 million (2019 – $1.1 million).

 

   

Payments

The minimum principal payment schedule for the Amended May 2019 Loans is noted herein.

 

   

Termination

The termination date of the Amended May 2019 Loans is the earliest of (i) May 31, 2024 and (ii) the date on which the obligations become due and payable pursuant to the Amended May 2019 Credit Agreement.

As part of the Tampa Acquisition, Akumin FL entered into a subordinated 6% note and security agreement with the seller’s secured lender on May 11, 2018 (the Subordinated Note and Subordinated Note Lender, respectively) with a face value of $1,500,000 and a term of four years. The Subordinated Note was recognized at fair value of $1,490,932 on May 11, 2018 using an effective interest rate. The fair value was determined based on management’s estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing similar liabilities (it is considered a Level 3 liability as described in note 13; this liability was subsequently settled as noted below).

In accordance with the terms of the Subordinated Note, the Company used part of the proceeds of the Term Loans to settle the principal outstanding under the Subordinated Note on May 31, 2019, together with accrued and unpaid interest, for $1,596,250 (face value of $1,500,000 and accrued interest of $96,250). The Company also recorded a fair value loss of $6,830 on the extinguishment of the Subordinated Note, which was reflected in the 2019 consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

According to the Subordinated Note, the Company was subject to an earn-out liability (Subordinated Note – Earn-out) of up to $4.0 million during the three-calendar year period beginning on January 1, 2019 and ending on December 31, 2021 (the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period), subject to the satisfaction of certain revenue-based milestones, as follows:

 

  a)

The Subordinated Note – Earn-out for any given calendar year during the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period shall be equal to 50% of any positive difference calculated by subtracting the Base Revenue ($16,000,000) for such calendar year from the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Revenue (defined below) for such calendar year.

 

  b)

The Subordinated Note – Earn-out Revenue for any calendar year during the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period shall be the gross revenue generated by the centres related to the Tampa Acquisition during such calendar year.

(expressed in US dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

  c)

If Subordinated Note – Earn-out Revenue for any calendar year of the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period is less than or equal to $16,000,000, no Subordinated Note – Earn-out shall be payable for such calendar year.

 

  d)

The maximum aggregate amount of the Subordinated Note – Earn-out that may be earned over the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period is $4,000,000.

The value of Subordinated Note – Earn-out has been estimated by management using a probability-weighted valuation technique; changes in the fair value of this liability are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Management estimated the fair value of Subordinated Note – Earn-out as at May 11, 2018 of $160,790 based on a discount rate of 8.75% and management’s estimated probability-weighted range of Subordinated Note – Earn-out Revenue during the Subordinated Note – Earn-out Period (it is considered a Level 3 liability as described in note 13; this liability was subsequently settled as noted below). The Subordinated Note – Earn-out was revalued at $200,000 as at September 30, 2020 and the change in fair value was recognized in financial instruments revaluation in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As discussed in note 19, the Company entered into a settlement with the holders of the Subordinated Note – Earn-out to fully settle and terminate the Subordinated Note – Earn-out for $200,000 on October 23, 2020.

Payments and termination

Under the Subordinated Note agreement, prior to May 11, 2022 (the Maturity Date), the Company may repay, without penalty, all or any portion of the Subordinated Note – Earn-out, and accrued but unpaid interest.

Restrictive covenants

The Subordinated Note agreement places certain limits on Akumin FL’s ability to declare dividends or other distributions, incur liens or indebtedness, make investments, undertake mergers or reorganizations or dispose of assets outside the ordinary course of business.

Financial covenants

None.

Events of default

Events of default under the Subordinated Note agreement include failure to pay any Subordinated Note – Earn-out, once earned, together with interest when due, defaults in complying with terms of the Subordinated Note agreement, and the occurrence of bankruptcy events relating to Akumin FL. The occurrence of an event of default would permit the Subordinated Note Lender to declare any Subordinated Note – Earn-out, once earned, together with accrued interest and fees, to be immediately due and payable and to exercise other default remedies.

Security

The Company has granted a security interest over all assets of Akumin FL as security for its obligations under the Subordinated Note. The Subordinated Note – Earn-out is subordinate to the intercompany loan from the Company to Akumin FL.

The Company is in compliance with the terms of the Subordinated Note agreement as at September 30, 2020.

Commitments and contingencies

The Company is party to various legal proceedings, claims, and regulatory, tax or government inquiries and investigations that arise in the ordinary course of business. With respect to these matters, the management evaluates the developments on a regular basis and accrues a liability when it believes a loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We believe that the amount or any estimable range of reasonably possible or probable loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business and condensed consolidated financial statements. However, the outcome of these matters is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if one or more of these matters were resolved against the Company for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, our results of operations and financial condition, including in a particular reporting period in which any such outcome becomes probable and estimable, could be materially adversely affected.

Management believes a loss is probable in connection with the settlement of a government investigation that relates predominantly to historical reimbursements paid under federal healthcare programs to subsidiaries or the Revenue Practices. Management estimates the amount of the loss to be around $0.7 million to $0.9 million and that it would be paid prior to December 31, 2020. As a result, at September 30, 2020, a provision for this matter is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Commencing during Q1 2020 and continuing through the present and beyond, a pandemic relating to the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 occurred causing significant financial market disruption and social dislocation. The pandemic is dynamic with various cities, counties, states and countries around the world responding or having responded in different ways to address and contain the outbreak, including the declaration of a global pandemic by the World Health Organization, a National State of Emergency in the United States and state and local executive orders and ordinances forcing the closure of non essential businesses and persons not employed in or using essential services to “stay at home” or “shelter in place”. At this stage, we have no certainty as to how long the pandemic, or a more limited epidemic, will last, what regions will be most affected or to what extent containment measures will be applied.

Imaging centers are healthcare facilities and as such are generally considered an essential service and expected to continue to operate during any epidemic or pandemic. However, there is potential that actions taken by government, referring physicians or individual actions, in response to containment or avoidance of this coronavirus could impact a patient’s ability or decision to seek imaging services at a given time which could have a significant impact on volume at our imaging centers leading to temporary or prolonged staff layoffs, reduced hours, closures and other cost containment efforts. Further, there is potential that certain services which are not urgent and can be deferred without significant harm to a patient’s health may be delayed, either by the Company in response to local laws or good public health practice or voluntarily by the patient. In addition, there is potential that the outbreak of the coronavirus could impact supply chains, including the Company’s supply of personal protective equipment, and lead to personnel shortages, each of which could impact the ability of the Company to safely perform imaging services. It is also possible that social distancing efforts and sanitization and decontamination procedures could cause delays in the performance of imaging services. Depending on the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is potential for the Company to incur incremental credit losses beyond what is currently expected and potential future reduction in revenue and income and asset impairments.

Risk management arising from financial instruments

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and leases (current portion) approximates their fair value given their short-term nature.

The carrying value of the non-current portion of leases approximates their fair value given the difference between the discount rates used to recognize the liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the normalized expected market rates of interest is insignificant. The estimated fair values of other non-current liabilities were as follows:

Financial instruments recorded at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets are classified using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. As at September 30, 2020, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value under the Level 1 category.

 

   

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability; either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices). As at September 30, 2020, the derivative financial instruments were measured at fair value under the Level 2 category on recognition. They are subsequently remeasured at fair value under the Level 2 category.

 

   

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Amended May 2019 Loans, Wesley Chapel Loan, Subordinated Note – Earn-out and ADG Acquisition – Earn-out were measured at fair value under the Level 3 category on recognition. The ADG Acquisition – Earn-out and Subordinated Note – Earn-out were subsequently remeasured at fair value under the Level 3 category (these liabilities were subsequently settled as discussed in note 6 and 9, respectively).

The following table summarizes information regarding the change in carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments carried at fair value.

ASU 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal Use Software (Topic 350-40)

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40). The ASU is intended to improve the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. The new guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). This ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. For all other entities, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is considered an Emerging Growth Company as classified by SEC, which gives the Company relief in the timing of implementation of this standard by allowing the private company timing for adoption. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and related clarifying standards, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to assess credit loss estimates. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. For all other entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is considered an Emerging Growth Company as classified by SEC, which gives the Company relief in the timing of implementation of this standard by allowing the private company timing for adoption. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

CARES Act

 

  i)

During April 2020, the Company received approximately $1.1 million in grant under the first appropriation made by the U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) to Medicare providers pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). Subsequently, in December 2020, the Company received an additional grant from the HHS of approximately $4 million. Additional grants may be available to the Company through subsequent appropriations under this program. The Company applied for these grants after determining that it was eligible to do so. Also, the Company has incurred expenses and experienced loss of revenue that are eligible to be reimbursed under these grants. The grants received are

  recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the category “Other revenue”.

 

  ii)

During April 2020, the Company received approximately $3.1 million of accelerated Medicare payments under the expanded Accelerated and Advance Payments Program from Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service (CMS). These payments are required to be applied to claims beginning one year after their receipt through the adjudication of Medicare claims over a future period. These payments to the Company are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in the category “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” until earned.

 

  iii)

The CARES Act allows employers to defer the deposit and payment of the employer’s share of Social Security taxes. As of September 30, 2020, such taxes were approximately $1.5 million and are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in the category “Accrued payroll taxes”.

 

19

Subsequent events

 

  i)

On October 23, 2020, the Company paid $200,000 to completely settle the Subordinated Note – Earn-out.

 

  ii)

On November 2, 2020, the Company closed its previously announced offering of $400 million of aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior secured notes due November 1, 2025 (the 2025 Senior Notes). The net proceeds from this offering were used to repay in full, in accordance with respective contracts, the Amended May 2019 Term Loans and Revolving Facility and the net derivative financial instrument liabilities and to pay related financing fees and expenses. The balance has been retained as cash. The 2025 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by the Company and each of its direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, including the Revenue Practices and the guarantors.

 

  iii)

Concurrently with the closing of the 2025 Senior Notes, the Company entered into a new revolving credit agreement (the November 2020 Revolving Credit Agreement) with BBVA USA, as administrative and collateral agent to provide for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $55 million (the November 2020 Revolving Facility), with sub-limits for the issuance of letters of credit and for swingline loans. The November 2020 Revolving Facility is secured pari passu with the obligations under the 2025 Senior Notes. The November 2020 Revolving Facility will mature on the date that is five years after the issue date (the November 2020 Revolving Facility Maturity Date); provided that, if more than $50 million in aggregate principal amount of notes is outstanding on the date that is 181 days prior to the November 2020 Revolving Facility Maturity Date, then the November 2020 Revolving Facility Maturity Date shall instead be the date that is 181 days prior to the November 2020 Revolving Facility Maturity Date.

The availability of borrowings under the November 2020 Revolving Facility is subject to customary terms and conditions.

 

  iv)

On November 2, 2020, the Company reached a settlement with the sellers of its Georgia business pursuant to the process contemplated by the purchase agreement for that business which valued the ADG Acquisition - Earn-out at approximately $9.4 million. In accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement between the parties, 50% of the value of ADG Acquisition - Earn-out (approximately $4.7

  million) was paid within 5 business days after the value was finally determined and the balance is to be paid 6 months thereafter, in May 2021.

 

  v)

The Company announced on February 11, 2021 that it completed its private offering of $75 million aggregate principal amount of additional 7.00% senior secured notes due November 2025 (the “New Notes”). The New Notes were offered as additional notes under the same indenture as the previously issued 2025 Senior Notes and will be treated as a single series with the 2025 Senior Notes.

The Company expects to use the net proceeds from this offering for future acquisitions, with any unused proceeds to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include reducing debt. The New Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by each wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, including the Revenue Practices and the guarantors.

 

  vi)

Effective March 1, 2021, the Company completed a common equity investment in an artificial intelligence business as part of a private placement offering for approximately $4.6 million. The target develops artificial intelligence aided software programs for use in medical businesses, including outpatient imaging services of the sort provided by the Company. As a result of the investment, a previous investment in a convertible note instrument issued by the target to the Company in May 2020 converted for common equity. The Company’s total investment is estimated to be valued at approximately $8.0 million and represents a 34.5% interest in the target. In addition, the Company holds share purchase warrants which, subject to the occurrence of certain events, and the payment of approximately $0.4 million, would entitle the Company to acquire a further 2.4% interest in the target’s common equity.

 

  vii)

On March 9, 2021, the Board granted 645,000 RSUs and 70,000 options to certain employees and consultants of the Company pursuant to the Company’s RSU plan and stock option plan, respectively, in connection with the Company’s equity bonus awards. In addition, 84,032 RSUs were granted to non-executive directors of the Company as part of their 2021 compensation and 50,000 RSUs were awarded as part of a signing bonus to an executive who started with the Company on March 29, 2021. Subject to and in accordance with the terms of the RSU plan, 50% of the RSUs granted will vest and settle for common shares one year after the date of grant and the remaining 50% will vest and settle for common shares two years after the date of grant. Subject to and in accordance with the stock option plan, the options were granted with an exercise price of $3.58 per share, representing the 5-day volume weighted average price of the shares prior to the date of grant and an expiry date of 7 years after the date of grant. The options granted will vest as follows: 34% of the grant vest one year after the date of grant, 33% two years after the date of grant and the remaining 33% three years after the date of grant.
