NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of CareView Communications, Inc. (“CareView”, the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the financial information included herein in accordance with GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“ASC 606”). For our subscription service contracts, we have employed the practical expedient discussed in ASC 606-10-55-18 related to invoicing as we have the right to consideration from our customers in the amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of our performance completed to date and therefore, we recognize revenue upon invoicing as further discussed below.
In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The provisions of ASC 606 include a five-step process by which we determine revenue recognition, depicting the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts reflecting the payment to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 requires us to apply the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation. For those customers for which we are required to collect sales taxes, we record such sales taxes on a net basis which has no effect on the amount of revenue or expenses recognized as the sales taxes are a flow through to the taxing authority.
We enter into contracts with customers that may provide multiple combinations of our products, software solutions, and other related services which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Performance obligations that are not distinct at contract inception are combined.
Customer contract fulfillment typically involves multiple procurement promises which may include various equipment, software subscription, project-related installation and training services, and support. We allocate the transaction price to each performance obligations based on estimated relative standalone selling price. Revenue is then recognized for each performance obligation upon transferring control of the hardware, software, and services to the customer an in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive and the estimated benefit the customer receives over the term of the contract.

Generally, we recognize revenue under each of our performance obligations as follows:
| ● | Subscription services – We recognize subscription revenues monthly over the contracted license period. |
| ● | Equipment packages related to sales-based contracts – We recognize equipment revenues when control of the devices has transferred to the client (“point in time”). |
| ● | Software bundle and related services related to sales-based contracts – We recognize our software subscription, installation, training, and other services on a straight-line basis over the estimated contracted license period (“over time”). |

These amounts are recorded as “Deferred revenue” in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and recognized into revenues over time.
Our sales-based contract payment arrangements with our customers typically include an initial equipment payment due upon signing of the contract and subsequent payments when certain performance obligations are completed. Customer payments received in advance of satisfaction of related performance obligations are deferred as contract liabilities.

We defer and capitalize all costs associated with the installation of the CareView System into a healthcare facility until the CareView System is fully operational and accepted by the healthcare facility. Installation costs are specifically identifiable based on the amounts we are charged from third party installers or directly identifiable labor hours incurred for each installation. Upon acceptance, the associated costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract with the healthcare facility. These costs are included in network operations on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Significant Judgements When Applying Topic 606
Contracts with our customers are typically structured similarly and include various combinations of our products, software solutions, and related services. Determining whether the various contract promises are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment.
Contract transaction price is allocated to distinct performance obligations using estimated standalone selling price. We determine standalone selling price maximizing observable inputs such as standalone sales, competitor standalone sales, or substantive renewal prices charged to customers when they exist. In instances where standalone selling price is not observable, we utilize an estimate of standalone selling price. Such estimates are derived from various methods that include cost plus margin, and historical pricing practices. Judgment may be required to determine standalone selling prices for each performance obligation and whether it depicts the amount we expect to receive in exchange for the related good or service.
Contract modifications occur when we and our customers agree to modify existing customer contracts to change the scope or price (or both) of the contract or when a customer terminates some, or all, of the existing services provided by us. When a contract modification occurs, it requires us to exercise judgment to determine if the modification should be accounted for as a separate contract, the termination of the original contract and creation of a new contract, a cumulative catch-up adjustment to the original contract, or a combination.
Contracts with our customers include a limited warranty on our products covering materials, workmanship, or design for the duration of contract. We do not offer paid additional extended or lifetime warranty packages. We determined the limited warranty in our contract is not a distinct performance obligation. We do not believe our estimates of warranty costs to be significant to our determination of revenue recognition and, therefore, did not reserve for warranty costs.
Leases
The Company has an operating lease primarily consisting of office space with a remaining lease term of 35 months. At the least commence date, an operating lease liability and related operating lease asset are recognized. The operating lease liability are calculated using the present value of lease payments. The discount rate used is either the rate implicit in the lease, when known, or our estimated incremental borrowing rate. Operating lease assets are valued based on the initial operating lease liability plus an prepare rent and direct costs from executing the leases.
We calculate earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with GAAP, which requires the computation and disclosure of two EPS amounts, basic and diluted. Basic EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period under the treasury stock method. Such potential dilutive common shares consist of stock options, warrants to purchase our Common Stock (the “Warrants”) and convertible debt. Potential common shares totaling approximately and at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive due to our reported net loss.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN, LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN
Accounting standards require management to evaluate whether the Company can continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q (“evaluation period”). In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, Management considers the conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months after the Company issues its financial statements. For the period ended September 30, 2022, Management considers the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows, and the Company’s conditional and unconditional obligations due within 12 months of the date these financial statements are issued.
The Company is subject to risks like those of healthcare technology companies whereby revenues are generated based on both on a sales-based and subscription-based business model such as dependence on key individuals, uncertainty of product development, generation of revenues, positive cash flow, dependence on outside sources of capital, risks associated with research, development, and successful testing of its products, successful protection of intellectual property, ability to maintain and grow its customer base, and susceptibility to infringement on the proprietary rights of others. The attainment of profitable operations is dependent on future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill the Company’s growth and operating activities and generating a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.
The
Company has experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities over the past years. As
of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $
As
of September 30, 2022, the Company had an operating net working capital of $
As of March 8, 2022, the Company extended HealthCor 2011 and 2012 notes through April 20, 2023, by entering Allonge No. 4 and we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $ per share.
On June 23, 2022, we agreed with the PDL Investment Holdings, LLC along with Steven G. Johnson and Dr. James R. Higgins in their collective capacity as the Tranche Three Lender to extend the due date from June 30, 2022 until December 31, 2022.
Management continues to monitor the immediate and future cash flows needs of the company in a variety of ways which include forecasted net cash flows from operations, capital expenditure control, new inventory orders, debt modifications, increases sales outreach, streamlining and controlling general and administrative costs, competitive industry pricing, sale of equities, debt conversions, new product or services offerings, and new business partnerships.
The Company’s net losses and cash outflows raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. A successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of positive cash flows adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.

NOTE 3 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock of the Company
We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes Model”) to determine the fair value of Warrants (except Warrants issued to HealthCor in 2011 (the “2011 HealthCor Warrants”) as discussed in NOTE 11 and the warrants issued in connection with a private placement completed in April 2013 (“Private Placement Warrants”). The Black-Scholes Model requires the use of several assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average term of the Warrants.
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the Warrants and is calculated by using the average daily historical stock prices through the day preceding the grant date. Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. Our estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of our stock prices (and that of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available) over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. Where appropriate we used the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of our stock price during 2007-2009. On April 20, 2021, we issued and warrants to purchase our Common Stock at an exercise price of $ per share to HealthCor Partners and HealthCor Hybrid, respectively.
On March 8, 2022, we agreed with the HealthCor Parties to (i) amend the 2011 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2011 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2011 HealthCor Notes (the “Fourth 2011 Note Allonges”) and (ii) amend the 2012 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2012 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2012 HealthCor Notes (the “Fourth 2012 Note Allonges”) (such amendments to the 2011 HealthCor Notes and 2012 HealthCor Notes together, the “2022 HealthCor Note Extensions”). In connection with the 2022 HealthCor Note Extensions, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $ per share (subject to adjustment as described therein) and with an expiration date of March 8, 2032 to the HealthCor Parties (collectively the “2022 HealthCor Warrants”).
Also on March 8, 2022, in connection with the 2022 HealthCor Note Extensions and the issuance of the 2022 HealthCor Warrants, we entered into a Consent and Agreement Pursuant to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “NWPA Consent”) with the HealthCor Parties and certain additional Existing Investors (in their capacity as Majority Holders acting together with the HealthCor Parties), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the Majority Holders consented to the 2022 HealthCor Note Extensions, (ii) the Majority Holders consented to the issuance of the 2022 HealthCor Warrants and (iii) the parties agreed that the holders of the 2022 HealthCor Warrants would have registration rights for the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the 2022 HealthCor Warrants under the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of April 20, 2011, as amended June 30, 2015, by and among the Company, the HealthCor Parties and the additional investors party thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. We do not expect to pay any significant federal or state income tax for 2021 because of the losses recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and net operating loss carry forwards from prior years. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is “more likely than not” that some component or all the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of September 30, 2022, we maintained a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets. Based on these requirements, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been recorded. There were no recorded unrecognized tax benefits at the end of the reporting period.
The
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2017. Among its numerous changes to the Internal
Revenue Code, the Act reduces U.S. corporate rates from
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was different from the federal statutory rate due primarily to change in the valuation allowance and nondeductible interest and amortization expense.

Accounting Treatment
When
issuing debt or equity securities convertible into common stock at a discount to the fair value of the common stock at the
date the debt or equity financing is committed, a company is required to record a beneficial conversion feature
(“BCF”) charge. We had three separate issuances of equity securities convertible into common stock that qualify
under this accounting treatment, (i) the 2011 HealthCor Notes, (ii) the 2012 HealthCor Notes and (iii) the 2014 HealthCor
Notes. Because the conversion option and the 2011 HealthCor Warrants on the 2011 HealthCor Notes were originally classified
as a liability when issued due to the down round provision and the removal of the provision requiring liability treatment,
and subsequently reclassified to equity on December 31, 2011 when the 2011 HealthCor Notes were amended, only the accrued

General
The following discussion and analysis provide information which our management believes to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with our financial statements and the notes to the financial statements, which are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”). This information should also be read in conjunction with the information contained in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The reported results will not necessarily reflect future results of operations or financial condition.
Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”), the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “CareView,” or “Company” refers to CareView Communications, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and unless otherwise specified, includes our wholly owned subsidiaries, CareView Communications, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CareView-TX”) and CareView Operations, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“CareView Operations”) (collectively known as the “Company’s Subsidiaries”).
We maintain a website at www.care-view.com and our Common Stock trades on the OTCQB under the symbol “CRVW.’’
Company Overview
As a leader in turnkey patient video monitoring solutions, CareView is redefining the standard of patient safety in hospitals and healthcare facilities across the country. For over a decade, CareView has relentlessly pursued innovative ways to increase patient protection, providing next generation solutions that lower operational costs and foster a culture of safety among patient, staff, and hospital leadership. With installations in more than 150 hospitals, CareView has proven that its innovative technology is creating a culture of patient safety where patient falls have decreased by 80% with sitter costs reduced by more than 65%. Anchored by the CareView Patient Safety System, this modular, scalable solution delivers flexible configurations to fit any facility while significantly increasing patient safety and operational savings. All configurations feature HD cameras, high-fidelity 2-way audio/video, LCD displays for the ultimate in capability, flexibility, and affordability.
SitterView® and TeleMedView allows hospital staff to use CareView’s high-quality video cameras with pan-tilt-zoom and 2-way video functionality to observe and communicate with patients remotely. With CareView, hospitals are safely monitoring more patients while providing a higher level of care by leveraging CareView’s patented technology, a portfolio that includes 40 patents. TeleMedView leverages the CareView Mobile Controller’s built-in monitor and can work with the CareView Portable Controller as well. Usage of SitterView® and TeleMedView has increased in response to a growing demand for remote patient monitoring driven by increasing demands for care and staffing shortages in the healthcare industry.
COVID-19 Outbreak
The Company has considered the effects of COVID-19 in the preparation of the financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2022. We have been able to continue providing services to our current customer base and have not yet experienced a slowdown in collections.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act (the “Act”) was enacted. The CARES Act is an approximately $2 trillion emergency economic stimulus package in response to the coronavirus outbreak, which among other things contains numerous income tax provisions. Some of these tax provisions were retroactively effective for years ending before the date of enactment.

CareView Patient Safety System®
Our CareView Patient Safety System provides innovative ways to increase patient protection, provides advanced solutions that lower operational costs, and helps hospitals foster a culture of safety among patients, staff, and hospital leadership. We understand the importance of providing high quality patient care in a safe environment and believe in partnering with hospitals to improve the quality of patient care and safety by providing a system that monitors continuously. We are committed to providing an affordable video monitoring tool to improve the practice of nursing, create a better work environment and make the patient’s hospital stay more satisfying. Our suite of products and services can simplify and streamline the task of preventing and managing patients’ falls, enhance patient safety, improve quality of care, and reduce costs. Our products and services can be used in all types of hospitals, nursing homes, adult living centers, and selected outpatient care facilities domestically and internationally.
The CareView Patient Safety System includes CareView’s SitterView®, providing a clear picture of up to 40 patients at once, allowing staff to intervene and document patient risks more quickly. SitterView features intuitive decision support pathway, guiding staff alarm response and pan- tilt-zoom functionality, allowing staff to home in on areas of interest. CareView’s new Analytics Dashboard provides real-time metrics on utilization, compliance, and outcome data by day, week, month, and quarter. Outcomes are automatically compared to organizational goals to evaluate real-time ROI.
CareView’s next generation of in-room camera; the CareView Controller features an HD camera, high- fidelity 2-way audio, and an LCD display, harnessing increased performance to deliver the ultimate in capability, flexibility, and affordability for all types of hospitals. Building on top of CareView’s patented Virtual Bed Rails and Virtual Chair Rails predictive technology, the CareView Controller uses machine learning to differentiate between normal patient movements and behaviors of a patient at risk. This technology results in less false alarms, faster staff intervention, and a significant reduction in patient falls.
The CareView Controller is available in multiple configurations for permanent or temporary situations, the CareView Mobile, Portable, and Fixed Controller. For situations that demand that the camera come to the patient, the CareView Mobile Controller on wheels comes with an uninterrupted external power supply for situations where power may not be readily available and can operate on the facility’s wireless network. For monitoring patients within a general care unit, the CareView Portable Controller can be easily removed from mounts and moved where the workflow dictates, making this application perfect for general use. For high-risk patient rooms where behavior and self-harm may be a factor, or where a patient must be continuously monitored, the CareView fixed Controller can be installed seamlessly in the ceiling tiles leaving no exposed wiring making it ligature resistant.
The CareView Patient Safety System can be easily configured to meet the individual privacy and security requirements of any hospital or nursing facility. CareView is (“HIPAA”) compliant and HITRUST certified. Additional HIPAA-compliant features allow privacy options to be enabled at any time by the patient, nurse, or physician.
CareView’s Patient Safety System® Products and Services Agreement with Healthcare Facilities
CareView’s subscription-based model is offered to healthcare facilities through a Products and Services Agreement (the “P&S Agreement(s)”). During the term of the P&S Agreement, we provide continuous monitoring of the CareView Patient Safety System products and services deployed to a healthcare facility and maintain and service all equipment installed by us. Under the subscription-based model, terms of each P&S Agreement require the healthcare facility to pay us a monthly fee based on the number of selected, installed, and activated services. None of the services provided through the Primary Package are paid or reimbursed by any third-party provider including insurance companies, Medicare, or Medicaid. We also enter into corporate-wide agreements with healthcare companies (the “Master Agreement(s)”), wherein the healthcare companies enter into individual facility level agreements that are substantially like our P&S Agreements.
25
Master Agreements and P&S Agreements are currently negotiated for a period of five years with a minimum of two or three years; however, older P&S Agreements were negotiated for a five-year period with a provision for automatic renewal. P&S Agreements specific to pilot programs (“P&S Pilot Agreements”) contain pricing terms substantially like P&S Agreements, are generally three or six-months in length and can be extended on a month-to-month basis as required. Regarding the subscription-based model, we own all rights, title, and interest in and to the equipment we install at each location and agree to maintain and repair it; although, we may charge for repairs or replacements due to damage or misuse. We are not responsible for maintaining data arising from use of the CareView Patient Safety System or for transmission errors, corruption or compromise of data carried over local or interchange telecommunication carriers. We grant each healthcare facility a limited, revocable, non-transferable, and nonexclusive license to use the software, network facilities, content, and documentation on and in the CareView Patient Safety System to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to access, explore and otherwise use the CareView Patient Safety System in real time. Such non-exclusive license expires upon termination of the P&S Agreement.
We use specific terminology to better define and track the staging and billing of the individual components of the CareView Patient Safety System. The CareView Patient Safety System includes three components which are separately billed; the CareView Controller (previously known as RCP), the CareView SitterView Monitor, and the CareView Application Server (each component referred to as a “unit”). The term “bed” refers to each healthcare facility bed as part of the overall potential volume that a healthcare facility represents. For example, if a healthcare facility has 200 beds, the aggregate of those beds is the overall potential volume of that healthcare facility. The term “bed” is often used interchangeably with “CareView Controller” as this component of the CareView Patient Safety System consistently resides within each room where the “bed” is located. On average, there are six SitterView Monitors for each 100 beds. The term “deployed” means that the units have been delivered to the healthcare facility but have not yet been installed at their respective locations within the facility. The term “installed” means that the units have been mounted and are operational. The term “billable” refers to the aggregate of all units on which we charge fees. Units become billable once they are installed and the required personnel have been trained in their use. Units are only deployed upon the execution of a P&S Agreement or P&S Pilot Agreement.
CareView Patent Safety System Sales-Based Model
CareView’s sales-based model has commenced with the introduction of our updated technology. CareView has also aligned its contracting model to meet the preferred acquisition model in the hospital industry. CareView now sells its proprietary equipment to facilities in lieu of lending the equipment as defined above, under the subscription-based model. In doing so, the facility is billed for the hardware on acceptance of the contract. After CareView’s equipment is delivered to the facility, CareView begins the process of installing and securely integrating the equipment and software. Upon completion of installation, training, and “go-live”; referring to all systems in full operation, CareView bills the facility for the installation, training, and an annual software license fee. CareView will continue to bill the facility an annual software license fee until end of the contract. The shift in our new contracting model has an immediate impact on the company’s operations resulting in greater cash flow within 30 days of contract signing.
CareView continues its dedication to provide service and support on a 24x7x365 basis for every customer under the prior and updated revenue models.
CareView Connect®
Our mission is to be the leading provider of resident monitoring products and services for the long- term care industry. We took what we learned in our medical facility business and applied it to developing a product to serve the long-term care market. With CareView Connect Quality of Life System (“CareView Connect”), CareView has again positioned itself as a technology leader with its innovative suite of products specifically designed for all aspects of the long-term care market, including Nursing Care, Home Care, Assisted Living and Independent Living.
26
With this mission in mind, in the second quarter of 2018, the Company introduced a new sensor product that has application in both the assisted living center market and the home health market. CareView Connect leverages both passive and active sensors to track the activities of daily life. CareView Connect provides peace of mind by using data from the resident’s activity, existing conditions, and environment to notify a caregiver of potential emergencies and identify the need for dignified support. CareView Connect consists of a small emergency assist button, two motion sensors, one sleep sensor, and one event sensor. Resident activity levels, medication administration, sleep patterns, and requests for assistance can all be monitored depending on which options are selected.
The skilled nursing home market consists of approximately 2,000,000 beds, which is double the size of the current hospital/healthcare facility bed market. The assisted living center market is even larger at approximately 3,000,000 beds. Our products flow naturally into the nursing home space as it is substantially the same setting as hospital rooms.
CareView Connect is a platform consisting of several products and applications targeted at improving level of care and efficiency. CareView is building a cohesive and tightly integrated solution that solves several problems that long-term care facilities face. We offer an array of wearable and stationary buttons that allow a resident to summon help either for an emergency or assistance, which can be anything from toileting help to assistance putting on their shoes. We offer a mobile app capable of delivering an alert to the caregiver and allows them document information around that alert. This allows for workflows and reports around the alerts, i.e. how long before the alert was handled, what was the cause of the alert, and if it was not acknowledged in a timely manner then the alert is escalated to another individual or group. This ensures that every alert is responded to timely and is verifiable. In addition, the caregiver usually is carrying out a litany of daily activities directed at each facility resident.
Alert Management and Monitoring System
CareView Connect provides a suite of hardware and software that facilitate a data-driven solution for alert management and monitoring. CareView Connect’s solution provides additional context, including location of the resident, which improves response time by the staff. The alert system includes a documentation platform that allows the facility’s staff to classify reason for alerts and provides metrics around response time. CareView Connect’s solution involves several passive sensors that monitor the resident.
Caregiver Platform
The caregiver platform includes a “Leave of Absence” component, which allows the facility to document when the resident is outside of their room for a duration of time. This information is incorporated with known data from the workflows and sensors to improve awareness. The Caregiver Connect mobile application provides a convenient and intuitive interface to the CareView Connect platform. The caregiver can use the mobile app to capture important information and interface with critical workflows, such as acknowledging and documenting alert presses by the resident. CareView Connect also provides a product focused on capturing and measuring the mental state and pain experienced by the resident. “How are you feeling today?” provides a convenient way to capture information about the mental state of the resident using emojis. Similarly, “What is your pain today?” allows the staff to categorize and document pain. Connect Resident is a tablet application intended for the resident’s direct use. This product currently supports video conferencing with a remote caregiver, becoming a communications conduit for telehealth. Connect Resident also supports “How are you feeling today?”, which allows the resident to submit this information directly.
Quality of Life Metrics
CareView is developing its own algorithm for measuring quality of life based on “best of breed” research and leveraging the data collected by the platform. CareView Connect’s Quality of Life Metrics focuses on several categories, including Physical Activity, Bodily Pain, General Health, Vitality, Social Interaction, Mental Health, and Sleep Quality. Leveraging this data, the facility and their staff have improved visibility into the health and well-being of their residents. By applying machine learning and predictive analytics, subtle patterns and trends that may not otherwise be visible become actionable. The facility can use this information to present a more compassionate and capable level of care, differentiating the facility from their competition. The Quality of Life Metrics information can be made available to the family and loved ones, opening a new channel of remote awareness and care. Because the information is collected automatically, the family gains awareness on issues of which their loved ones may normally be unaware. The Connect Family mobile application allows family members to monitor their loved one and receive alerts and notifications based on their preferences.
27
Pricing Structure and Revenue Streams
The CareView Connect suite of products and services offers multiple pricing models. We work with each facility on pricing to offer an affordable package based on the demographics of the residents of the facility. The pricing structure with each facility is negotiated separately. Typically, we offer the CareView Connect basic package at a price per monitored room with varying price structures based on number of sensors and number of residents in each facility.

Revenue
Revenue decreased approximately $244,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease in revenue resulted from a decrease in our sales-based contracts (equipment sales revenue).

Operating expenses were approximately $229,000 higher than prior comparative period. This increase is due to the strategic initiative legal costs, higher economic cost of travel to the subscription clients as well as sales & marketing and patent maintenance expenses.
Other, net
Other, net increased approximately $894,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was attributable to suspension of related party interest to December 31, 2021.
Net income (loss)
Our third quarter 2022 net loss of approximately $1,479,000 decreased approximately $421,000 as compared to approximately $1,900,000 net loss for the third quarter of 2021. Again, this decrease in net loss is due to the suspension of related party interest effective for December 31, 2021.

Other, net
Other, net decreased approximately $1,909,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was attributable to suspension of the related party accrued interest as compare to the same period in 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Accounting standards require management to evaluate whether the Company can continue as a going concern for a period of one year after the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q (“evaluation period”). In evaluating the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, Management considers the conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months after the Company issues its financial statements. For the period ended September 30, 2022, Management considers the Company’s current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows, and the Company’s conditional and unconditional obligations due before November 21, 2023.
The Company is subject to risks like those of healthcare technology companies whereby revenues are generated based on both on a sales-based and subscription-based business model such as dependence on key individuals, uncertainty of product development, generation of revenues, positive cash flow, dependence on outside sources of capital, risks associated with research, development, and successful testing of its products, successful protection of intellectual property, ability to maintain and grow its customer base, and susceptibility to infringement on the proprietary rights of others. The attainment of profitable operations is dependent on future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill the Company’s growth and operating activities and generating a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.
The Company has experienced net losses and significant cash outflows from cash used in operating activities over the past years. As of the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $204,216,037, loss from operations of $1,188,846, net cash used in operating activities of $282,598, and an ending cash balance of $288,828.
31
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had an operating net working capital of $377,757, which is accounts receivable plus inventory minus accounts payable. Management has evaluated the significance of the conditions described above in relation to the Company’s ability to meet its obligations and concluded that, without additional funding, the Company will not have sufficient funds to meet its obligations within one year from the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. While management will look to continue funding operations by increased sales volumes and raising additional capital from sources such as sales of its debt or equity securities or loans to meet operating cash requirements, there is no assurance that management’s plans will be successful.
As of the date of this quarterly filing, the Company modified its 2011 HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP senior secured notes currently classified as long-term liabilities that were due April 20, 2021, for a total of approximately $46,000,000 and 2012 HealthCor Partners Fund, LP and HealthCor Hybrid Offshore Master Fund, LP senior secured notes classified as long- term liabilities due January 31, 2022, for a total of approximately $10,600,000 to extend the due dates to April 20, 2023.
On March 08, 2022, we agreed with the HealthCor Parties to (i) amend the 2011 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2011 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2011 HealthCor Notes (the “Third 2011 Note Allonges”) and (ii) amend the 2012 HealthCor Notes to extend the maturity date of the 2012 HealthCor Notes from April 20, 2022 to April 20, 2023 by entering into Allonge No. 4 to the 2012 HealthCor Notes (the “Fourth 2012 Note Allonges”) (such amendments to the 2011 HealthCor Notes and 2012 HealthCor Notes together, the “HealthCor Note Extensions”). In connection with the HealthCor Note Extensions, we issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.09 per share (subject to adjustment as described therein) and with an expiration date of March 08, 2032, to the HealthCor Parties (collectively the “2021 HealthCor Warrants”).
On June 23, 2022, we agreed with the PDL Investment Holdings, LLC along with Steve G. Johnson and Dr. James R. Higgins in their collective capacity as the Tranche Three Lender to extend the due date from June 30, 2022 until December 31, 2022.
Management continues to monitor the immediate and future cash flows needs of the company in a variety of ways which include forecasted net cash flows from operations, capital expenditure control, new inventory orders, debt modifications, increases sales outreach, streamlining and controlling general and administrative costs, competitive industry pricing, sale of equities, debt conversions, new product or services offerings, and new business partnerships.
The Company’s net losses and cash outflows raise doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through November 21, 2023. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. A successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of positive cash flows adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Commission on March 31, 2022 and incorporated herein by reference, for detailed explanation of our critical accounting estimates, which have not changed significantly during the three months ended September 30, 2022.

Recently Issued and Newly Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
We do not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recent Events
None.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
None.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including Steve G. Johnson, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and principal executive officer, and Jason T. Thompson, our principal financial officer and chief accounting officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and principal financial and chief accounting officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and principal financial and chief accounting officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022 due to the continuing existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below (which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures). Based on the performance of additional procedures designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, we believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).
Material Weakness and Remediation Plan
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls 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. Management has determined that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of the month ended September 30, 2022 due to the existence of the material weaknesses described below.
33
Management determined that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2022, due to the following material weaknesses:
| a. | It was determined that the Company does not have effective controls over the identification and evaluation of the GAAP, transactions in the areas of revenues, debt, and income taxes, due to a lack of technical expertise. |
| b. | Due to a lack of accounting resources, it was determined that the Company had inadequate segregation of duties in place of reporting and other management oversight. Specifically, the accounting personnel had responsibility for initiating transactions in the financial statement areas of revenues, equity, payroll, debt, and financial reporting, recording transactions, and preparing financial reports. |
| c. | Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2021, management identified a material weakness in the segregation of information technology (“IT”) systems that support the Company’s financial reporting processes due to a lack of IT resources. |
Based on additional procedures and post-closing review, Management concluded that the consolidated financial statements including this report present fairly, in all material respects, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles accepted in the United States.
Steps to address material weaknesses through our remediation plan are as follows:
| ● | Identify and employ additional full-time highly qualified accounting personnel to join the corporate accounting function to enhance overall monitoring, maintain standard internal controls, and accounting oversight within the Company. |
| ● | The Company hired on May 16, 2022 a certified public accountant (“CPA”) as its Controller who is in process of recruiting a senior-level accountant CPA eligible in addition to the staff-level accountant pursuing CPA eligibility. |
| ● | Implement enhanced documentation associated with management review controls and validation of the completeness and accuracy of financial reporting and key management financial reports. |
| ● | Provide training of standard operating procedures and internal controls to key stakeholders within the supply chain, logistics, and inventory processes. |
| ● | Enhance and automate existing internal control to ensure proper authorization, review, and recording of financial transactions. |
| ● | On an as-needed basis, identify and engage certain third-party subject matter experts to assist with the preparation and reporting of complex business and accounting transactions. |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluations pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Controls
Our management can provide no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting can prevent all errors and all fraud under all circumstances. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been or will be detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
