NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1
BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Forian Inc. (the “Company” or “Forian”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 15, 2020 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC (“MOR”) for the purpose of effecting the business combination with Helix Technologies Inc. (“Helix”). Forian provides a unique suite of data management capabilities and proprietary information and analytics solutions to optimize and measure operational, clinical and financial performance for customers within the healthcare and related industries.

The business combination with Helix was accounted for as a reverse acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with the Company deemed the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Helix provides software and analytics solutions to state governments and licensed operators in the cannabis industry, primarily through its subsidiary, Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. (“BioTrack”), until its sale of BioTrack in 2023.

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of BioTrack, on March 3, 2022, Helix completed the sale of the assets of its security monitoring business, and on October 31, 2022, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding membership interest of its Engeni LLC subsidiary (these businesses together are referred to as the “Helix Businesses”). As a result of these transactions, Helix has no remaining active operations and the Company no longer provides products or services to the cannabis industry. The results of the Helix Businesses are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Helix Businesses to discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022. The Company will continue to provide analytics solutions to customers within the healthcare and related industries. For further discussion on the discontinued operations, refer to Note 4.

Note 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

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”). Certain footnotes and other financial information normally required by U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2023. The operating results presented herein are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2023.

Note 3
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of (i) Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC and (ii) Helix Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Helix TCS, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Security Consultants Group, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Helix Legacy, Inc. (f/k/a Security Grade Protective Services, Ltd.), Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc (through February 10, 2023), and Engeni, LLC (including Engeni S.A. (“Engeni SA”), which is 99% owned by Engeni, LLC) (through October 31, 2022). Effective October 31, 2022, 100% of the outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC held by Helix was sold. Effective December 31, 2022, (i) Security Consultants Group, LLC was merged with and into Helix TCS, LLC and (ii) Helix TCS, LLC was merged with and into Helix Legacy, Inc. On February 10, 2023, 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. was sold. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

6

Discontinued Operations

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTrack.

On March 3, 2022, the Company sold certain assets, consisting of customer contracts, accounts receivable, and other property related to its security monitoring services. On October 31, 2022, the Company sold 100% of its outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC for a note with payments of up to $100,000 if certain conditions are met.

As the sale of BioTrack, the security monitoring business and Engeni, LLC, together, represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations separate from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, as applicable. The results from operations and gain (loss) on sale of the security monitoring business and Engeni LLC, net, was previously classified as part of continuing operations as their disposition individually did not have a major impact on the business prior to the sale of BioTrack. For further discussion, refer to Note 4.

Foreign Currency

ASC Topic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”), requires the use of highly inflationary accounting when a country has experienced a cumulative inflation of approximately 100% or more over a 3-year period. Under highly inflationary accounting, financial statements are remeasured into the reporting currency with resulting gains and losses included in earnings. The Company acquired a subsidiary as part of the Helix acquisition that operates in Argentina, which has been designated a highly inflationary economy. Accordingly, the Company has remeasured the financial statements of the subsidiary under ASC 830-10 as if the US dollar is its functional currency with resulting gains or losses as other income or expense. The Company sold all of the assets of its operations in Argentina, Engeni LLC and Engeni SA, during October 2022. The financial results of the Company’s Argentina operations are included in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, sales in Argentina, which are included in discontinued operations, were less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated sales. The hyperinflationary conditions did not have a material impact on the Company’s business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses together with amounts disclosed in related notes to the financial statements. The significant areas of estimation include but are not limited to accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, contingencies, discontinued operations and stock-based compensation. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is possible that the external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. Certain personnel, information licensing and data processing costs that were previously classified in research and development expenses when the Company’s healthcare information business was in its start-up stage were reclassified to cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable; and

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company’s warrant liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $2,053 and $4,547, respectively, based on Level 3 inputs. Refer to Note 9.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Credit Risk

The Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, as cash and cash equivalents.

The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held at U.S. bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. The portion of deposits in excess of FDIC coverage is not protected by such insurance and represents a credit risk to the Company. At times, the Company’s deposits exceed this coverage.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions.

8

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $78,422 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Management charges account balances against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations, net

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations consists of eight remaining monthly payments due through February 10, 2024 resulting from the sale of BioTrack, aggregating $6,666,667, less an unamortized discount of $164,958. The Company recognized $190,000 and $245,041 of amortization of the $410,000 discount in interest and investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets, Including Definite Lived Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows derived from such assets. Definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, software technology and trade names. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. When an impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually.

Goodwill

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, it is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce its fair value below its carrying amount.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. The qualitative factors considered by Forian may include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, the Company’s outlook, market performance of the Company’s industry and recent and forecasted financial performance. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and to determine whether further action is needed. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the quantitative impairment test is unnecessary. An impairment charge is recognized when the fair value of the Company’s goodwill is less than its carrying amount. No impairment losses have been recognized during the periods presented.

All of the Company’s previously reported goodwill related to discontinued operations and has been classified as non-current assets of discontinued operations at December 31, 2022. See Note 4 – Discontinued Operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when (or as) customers obtain control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue following the five-step model prescribed under ASC 606: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 606 to an arrangement when a substantive contract exists and collectability is probable.

The Company derives revenue primarily from license fees for the Company’s information products. Information products contracts are generally for a period of one month to five years. Information products’ customers may access data analytics products through the use of tools provided by the Company or by utilizing their own tools per the contract. Data products may consist of historical information as it exists at the time of delivery or information that will be updated over a period of time as agreed with the customer. In most cases, the provision of information products is considered a single performance obligation. In cases where the Company is not obligated to update information over the access period, and control over the use of the products passes to the customer when delivered, revenue is recognized when the information products are made available to the customer. In cases where information updates are provided over the contract term, they are considered highly interrelated with the information product delivered upon contract inception, and revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract. Customers are generally invoiced according to monthly, quarterly or annual amounts specified in the contract. Any amounts invoiced in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced is recorded as a contract asset.

In some cases, contracts provide for variable consideration that is contingent upon the occurrence of uncertain future events, which can either increase or decrease the transaction price, including sales of products by customers derived from data analytics products the Company provides. Variable consideration based on sales of products by customers is recognized in the period of sales, subject to minimum amounts specified in contracts. Variable consideration is estimated at the expected value or at the most likely amount depending on the type of consideration. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The estimate of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to the Company and reevaluated each reporting period. The effect of revisions in recognized estimated variable consideration in excess of minimums are recorded beginning in the period in which the estimates are revised. Actual results could differ from periodic estimates.

Significant judgments and estimates are sometimes necessary for the determination of whether performance obligations in a contract are distinct and whether they are delivered at a point in time or over time. Judgement is also necessary to assess revenue recognized under contingent revenue arrangements.

Contract acquisition costs, which consist of sales commissions paid or payable, are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions for initial and renewal contracts are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term.

10

During November 2020, the Company entered into a Master Services Agreement (the “November 2020 Agreement”) with a customer to provide information services described in certain statements of work under the November 2020 Agreement. As part of the November 2020 Agreement, the Company was granted shares of restricted stock representing approximately 23.4% of the outstanding common stock of the customer at the time of issuance, vesting in quarterly increments specified in the November 2020 Agreement through December 2023. Concurrently, the Company entered into a Stockholders Agreement specifying its voting and other rights as a stockholder. As a result, the Company determined that it does not exert influence over the customer. ASC 606-10-32-21 requires an entity to measure the fair value of noncash consideration at contract inception. The fair value of the restricted stock was determined to be $0 on the date of inception. The Company recorded revenue from the customer of $654,489, $1,306,251, $377,276, and $754,466 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company has outstanding accounts receivable from this customer of $1,331,759 and $469,786 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Note 17.

 Contract assets and deferred revenues consist of the following as of June 30, 2023:

	Contract Assets								Contract Liability
	Costs of obtaining contracts		Unbilled revenue			Total			Deferred Revenue

Segment Information

FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer, who reviews the financial performance and the results of operations of the segments prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company.

Customer Concentration

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had two customers representing 13.4% and 12.6% of revenue. At June 30, 2023, the Company had three customers representing 34.7%, 14.3% and 11.8% of accounts receivable.  

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had two customers representing 17.0% and 10.5% of revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 15.8%, 10.6% and 10.3% of revenue. At December 31, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 25.9%, 14.8% and 14.6% of accounts receivable.

Concentration of Vendors

The Company licenses certain information assets from third parties as a key input to certain Information and Software products. Any disruption associated with these suppliers could have a material short-term impact on the business while alternate sources are secured.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, which is recorded commencing at the in-service date using the straight-line method at rates sufficient to charge the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, which are 1 to 7 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets annually and whenever events and or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Such indicators include, among others, the nature of the asset, the projected future economic benefit of the asset, historical and future cash flows and profitability measurements. An impairment loss would be recognized when the value of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying value. There were no impairment losses recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for costs incurred in the development of computer software in accordance with ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software and ASC Subtopic 985-20, Software Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed. Product development costs are primarily related to Company personnel and contractors for design and evaluating software development, testing, bug fixes and other maintenance activities. Product development costs incurred in the application development stage for internal use software are subject to capitalization and subsequent amortization, and possible impairment. The Company begins to capitalize these costs when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software would be used as intended. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. Such costs are amortized when placed in service, on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally estimated to be three years. Product development costs not pertaining to the application development stage are expensed as incurred.

12

Contingencies

Occasionally, the Company may be involved in claims and legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a provision for a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If these estimates and assumptions change or prove to be incorrect, it could have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Contingencies are inherently unpredictable, and the assessments of the value can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in sales and marketing expenses and amounted to $20,294, $35,419, $0 and $2,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The calculation of earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares or ordinary stock equivalents outstanding during the applicable period. The dilutive effect of ordinary stock equivalents is excluded from basic earnings per share and is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, unless their impact is antidilutive to the “control number”, which is loss from continuing operations. Employee equity share options and similar equity instruments granted by the Company are treated as potential ordinary shares outstanding in computing diluted earnings per share. Diluted shares outstanding are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of benefits that would be recorded in ordinary shares when the award becomes deductible for tax purposes are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company relies on the guidance provided by ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), to classify certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares.

Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the balance sheet (“temporary equity”). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e. at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity.

Initial Measurement

The Company records its financial instruments classified as liability, temporary equity or permanent equity at issuance at the fair value, or cash received.

13

Subsequent Measurement – Financial instruments classified as liabilities

The Company records the fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities at each subsequent measurement date. The changes in fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities are recorded as other expense/income.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“2020 Plan”) permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units. A total of 4,000,000 shares of Company common stock were originally authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan. On June 15, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2020 Plan, which amended the 2020 Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance by 2,400,000 shares to a total of 6,400,000 shares. Stock options represent the right to purchase Company common stock at the exercise price on the date of grant of the stock option at a future date. Restricted stock awards are grants of shares of Company common stock. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of Company common stock on future specified dates. Stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted contain restrictions that cause them to be subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and restrict their exercise, sale or other transfer by the grantee until they vest. The terms of the stock options, restricted stock awards and units granted under the 2020 Plan are determined by the Board of Directors in the agreement evidencing the award, including the number of shares, period of restriction or vesting schedule and other terms. The fair value of the stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units is based on the underlying grant date fair value of Company common stock. The fair value is then expensed over the requisite service periods of the awards, net of forfeitures, which is generally the service period and the related amount is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 (“ASC 740”). Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, which are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The provision for income taxes represents Federal and state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of state and local income taxes, tax benefit of R&D credits, and certain nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, derecognition, or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized net income tax expense of $36,187, $66,096, $5,000 and $10,000, respectively. The Company claims R&D tax credits on eligible R&D expenditures. The R&D tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense.

The Company recognized a taxable gain on sale of discontinued operations during the for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which resulted in utilization of certain available federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, the Company recorded income taxes related to discontinued operations of $2,722,570 after utilization of federal and state net operating losses during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Income taxes related to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 result from adjustments to estimates impacting intraperiod tax allocations.

14

The Company files a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in certain state and local jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is not subject to examination in any tax jurisdictions.

Tax contingencies are recorded, if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was enacted and signed into law. Regarded as the reduced version of the proposed Build Back Better Act, the IRA contains two main corporate income tax provisions, including a 15% minimum tax on the average annual adjusted financial statement income of corporations with profits over $1 billion over a three-year period, as well as a 1% excise tax on the corporate stock buybacks by domestic publicly traded corporations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the IRA on its financial statements for tax year 2023 but does not expect a material impact to the Company’s tax position.

Separation Expenses

Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, (i) salary continuation for twelve months and (ii) accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of Company common stock. Separation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 include $250,000 related to the salary continuation and $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock. There were no such expenses incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

On March 2, 2022, the Company and two advisors agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. The advisors were the former chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Helix who were granted stock options in conjunction with their respective advisory agreements that were entered into upon the completion of the Helix acquisition. The Company and the advisors mutually agreed not to renew the advisory agreements. The services provided by these advisors included transition planning and consulting services related to integration of the business operations of Helix and Forian. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through  March 2, 2023.

In addition, the Company records normal course of business severance expenses in the operating expense line item related to its employees’ activities.

15

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). The FASB issued ASU 2021-08 to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendment is effective for financial statements for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2021-08 was adopted on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Helix Businesses Discontinued Operations

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTrack, in exchange for $30.0 million, consisting of $20.0 million paid at closing and $10.0 million paid in twelve unconditional monthly installments thereafter. In March 2022, Helix sold its security monitoring business and in October 2022, sold its Argentinian subsidiary, Engeni LLC. The security monitoring business, BioTrack and Engeni are collectively referred to as the “Helix Businesses.” As a result of these transactions, as of February 10, 2023, the Company no longer provides products or services to the cannabis industry. The Company continues to provide analytics solutions to customers in the healthcare and related industries.

The Company recognized a gain on sale of BioTrack of $11,531,849 and a loss from discontinued operations of $94,427 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, which is included as part of discontinued operations. The Company also recorded income taxes related to discontinued operations of $32,426 and $2,722,570 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

The Company recorded a gain on the sale of assets related to its security monitoring business of $202,159 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The amount was reclassified to discontinued operations in 2023 as it was part of a strategic shift which became significant to the Company’s operations upon the sale of BioTrack.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Marketable securities are stated at estimated fair value based upon current market quotes (level 1 inputs) and are classified as available-for-sale. Realized gains and losses are included in investment income. Unrealized gains and losses are immaterial and therefore the Company has presented such amounts within investment income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company invests in short-term U.S. Treasuries and money market mutual funds. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, marketable securities consisted of the following:

Note 9
WARRANT LIABILITY

In conjunction with the business combination with Helix, outstanding warrants to purchase Helix common stock were converted to warrants to purchase Company common stock. As the warrant holders have the option to receive cash in lieu of common stock in certain circumstances, the Company determined that the warrants require classification as a liability pursuant to ASC 815-40. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the outstanding warrants are recognized as a warrant liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and were measured at their inception date fair value (the closing date of the business combination with Helix) and subsequently re-measured at each reporting period with changes being recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 55,121 and 92,058 warrants outstanding classified as liabilities, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 36,936 warrants expired.

19

The fair value of the Company’s warrant liability, measured at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy,  was calculated using the Black-Scholes model and the following inputs:

	As of June 30, 2023			As of December 31, 2022
Fair value of Company's common stock	$	2.45		$	2.73
Dividend yield		0	%		0	%

Exercise price	$	8.00 - $28.00		$	8.00 - $28.00
Fair value of financial instruments - warrants	$	2,053		$	4,547

The change in fair value of the Company’s financial instruments – warrants, measured at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, was calculated using the Black-Scholes model and the following inputs:

Note 10 CONVERTIBLE NOTES

	June 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Principal outstanding	$	24,000,000		$	24,000,000
Add: accrued interest		1,537,315			1,120,767
Less: unamortized debt issuance costs		(11,553	)		(14,220	)
Convertible note payable, net of debt issuance costs	$	25,525,762		$	25,106,547

On September 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors and a director of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued at 100% of par value $24,000,000 in aggregate principal balance of 3.5% Convertible Promissory Notes due September 1, 2025 (the “Notes”), convertible into (i) shares of Company common stock, and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock equal to 20% of the principal amount of the Notes divided by the conversion price of the Notes (the “Warrants”). The Notes will mature on the fourth-year anniversary of the date of issuance, which time is also the termination date of the Warrants if issued. The conversion price of the Notes and the exercise price of the Warrants is $11.98 per share, which was the consolidated closing bid price of the Company common stock as reported by Nasdaq on August 31, 2021, the most recently completed trading day preceding the Company entering into the Note Purchase Agreement with investors with respect to the Notes. The holders of the Notes may, at any time, convert all or a portion of the Notes plus accrued interest (subject to a minimum principal amount of $100,000) at the conversion price. The Company may redeem all or a portion of any Notes then outstanding at any time after the first anniversary of issuance at a price of 112.5% of par value plus accrued interest. In the event of a change of control of the Company, the Company may redeem all Notes then outstanding at a price of 108% of par value plus accrued interest. Interest expense on the Notes is payable upon maturity or earlier redemption unless the Notes are converted prior to such time. In the event the holders of the Note convert all or a portion of the Notes, the related accrued interest is converted at the conversion price. Interest expense related to the Notes was $209,425, $416,548, $207,315 and $417,315 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company evaluated the embedded features in accordance with ASC 815-15-25 and determined embedded features are all clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument and therefore are not required to be bifurcated and separately measured at fair value. The Warrants were not issued in connection with the Notes, and issuance of the Warrants is contingent upon conversion of the Notes at the option of the Holder, therefore no portion of the proceeds are allocated to the Warrants.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs associated with the Notes in the amount of $21,330, which were deferred and  are being amortized over the term of the Notes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $1,333, $2,667, $1,333 and $2,666 in amortization of debt issuance costs, respectively.

Note 11 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

The table below includes issuances of restricted stock awards and units under the 2020 Plan and unvested equity interests of MOR which were converted into restricted Company common stock.

	Number of Restricted Shares and Units			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Unvested at January 1, 2022		1,146,131		$	1.28
Issued		—			11.71

Unvested at June 30, 2023		865,606		$	3.31

The 865,606 of unvested awards at June 30, 2023 consisted of 128,608 restricted stock units and 736,998 shares of restricted stock.

Stock Options

As part of the business combination with Helix, the Company assumed the Helix TCS, Inc. Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan and the Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, each as amended, pursuant to which options exercisable at prices between $2.00 and $51.80 per share for 455,089 shares of Company common stock were outstanding. The value attributable to service subsequent to the business combination is recognized as compensation cost by the Company.

The fair value of the stock options was estimated at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgement. The assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the options outstanding at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

	June 30, 2023			December 31, 2022
Exercise Price		$	2.00 to $51.80	$	2.00 to $51.80
Fair value of Company common stock		$	2.98 to $15.61	$	2.98 to $15.61
Dividend yield			0%		0%
Expected volatility		83% to 188%		83% to 188%
Risk Free interest rate	0.27% to 4.52%			0.27% to 4.52%
Expected life (years) remaining	0.01 to 9.62			0.01 to 9.62

22

Stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 is as follows:

	Shares Underlying Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)
Outstanding at January 1, 2022		4,046,973		$	14.25		8.75
Granted		1,203,250		$	4.02		9.14

Vested options at June 30, 2023		2,076,200		$	12.59		6.69

The weighted average exercise price and remaining contractual life of exercisable options as of June 30, 2023 is $7.54 and 8.54 years, respectively. The total aggregate intrinsic value of the exercisable options as of June 30, 2023 was approximately $25,482.

Stock Compensation Expense

The weighted-average grant date fair value per share for the stock options granted was $3.42 and $6.17 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of the Company common stock. Stock based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock.

On March 2, 2022, the Company and the former chief executive officer and the former chief financial officer of Helix mutually agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through March 2, 2023.

23

At June 30, 2023, the total unrecognized stock compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards and restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted was $13,823,992, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.86 years. Stock compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

Note 13 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Adam Dublin, the Company’s Chief Strategy Officer, was previously a consultant for a current vendor of the Company. Mr. Dublin’s consultancy with the vendor ended on December 11, 2020 and the parties have agreed not to renew the consulting agreement. Pursuant to Mr. Dublin’s consulting agreement with the vendor, Mr. Dublin received payments from the vendor for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 of $127,050, $176,082, $142,266 and $234,635, respectively.

On September 1, 2021, the Company issued at 100% of par value $24,000,000 in aggregate principal balance of 3.5% Convertible Promissory Notes due 2025 convertible into (i) shares of Company common stock and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock equal to 20% of the principal amount of the Notes divided by the conversion price to a select group of institutional and accredited investors, which included a director of the Company who holds $6,000,000 of the Notes. See Note 10 for additional information.

Note 14
SEGMENT RESULTS

The Company provides innovative solutions, proprietary data and predictive analytics to optimize the operational, clinical and financial performance of its customers.

ASC 280 requires that public companies report profits and losses and certain other information on their “reportable operating segments” in their annual and interim financial statements. The internal organization used by the public company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for reportable operating segments. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM evaluates financial performance based on revenues and operating income.

As discussed above, the Company disposed of its businesses servicing the cannabis industry in 2023, and has reclassified their historical results as discontinued operations. As such, the Company’s continuing operations are comprised of a single reportable segment providing analytic and information services to the healthcare and related industries.

Note 15 LEASES

Operating Leases

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). All contracts are evaluated to determine whether or not they represent a lease. A lease conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of facilities with remaining lease terms of 1-5 years. The lease term represents the period up to the early termination date unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will not exercise the early termination option. Certain leases include rental payments that are adjusted periodically based on changes in consumer price and other indices.

Leases are classified as finance or operating in accordance with the guidance in ASC 842. The Company does not hold any finance leases.

The Company is obligated under two short-term leases related to offices in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. These short-term leases are currently leased on a month-to-month basis. A short-term lease is a lease with a term of 12 months or less and does not include the option to purchase the underlying asset that we would expect to exercise. The Company has elected to adopt the short-term lease exemption in ASC 842 and as such has not recognized a “right of use” asset or lease liability for these short-term leases.

25

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, therefore an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments.

Supplemental cash flow information and non-cash activity related to leases for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Legal Proceedings

From time to time the Company may be involved in claims that arise during the ordinary course of business. For any matters where management currently believes it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and that the probable loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records reserves in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on its best estimates of such loss. In other instances, because of the uncertainties related to either the probable outcome or the amount or range of loss, management is unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability, if any. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can be costly and time consuming, and it can divert management’s attention from important business matters and initiatives, negatively impacting the Company’s overall operations. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not currently have any pending litigation to which it is a party or to which its property is subject that we believe to be material, except for the below.

Audet v. Green Tree International, et. al.

On February 14, 2020, John Audet filed a complaint in 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida against multiple parties, including Green Tree International (“GTI”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, claiming that he owned 10% of GTI. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages equivalent to the value a 10% shareholder of GTI would have received in the subsequent Helix and Forian transactions, along with an equitable accounting and constructive trust to determine if Audet suffered any loss of profit distributions. The case is in the process of discovery and trial is currently scheduled to occur between September and December of 2023. Each of the parties’ motions for summary judgment were denied. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

Grant Whitus et al. v. Forian Inc., Zachary Venegas and Scott Ogur

On July 30, 2021, four former Helix employees filed a lawsuit in the Arapahoe County, Colorado District Court against the Company and Helix’s former managers asserting claims of breach of contract, promissory estoppel, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, civil theft and conversion, fraudulent misrepresentation, civil conspiracy, and unjust enrichment/quantum meruit, all relating to the plaintiffs’ claims that they were promised equity interest in Helix or compensation that they never received. The original complaint was never served, and in November 2021 the plaintiffs filed and served an amended complaint adding a fifth plaintiff, and seeking over $27.5 million in damages as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company removed the matter to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado in December 2021, and both the Company and the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss on January 20, 2022. Plaintiffs subsequently amended their complaint on April 21, 2022, adding Helix TCS LLC and Helix Technologies, Inc. as defendants and advancing additional claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violation of the Colorado Wage Claims Act. The Company and the individual defendants filed separate motions to dismiss on June 1, 2022, which were granted in part and denied in part by the Court on February 28, 2023. Plaintiffs supplemented their complaint on March 3, 2023, consistent with the Court’s ruling. Written discovery, which commenced in July 2022, is ongoing. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 21, 2023, a customer in which the Company held an equity interest (See Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Revenue Recognition) was acquired. As a result, the Company received approximately $5.9 million of cash proceeds in consideration of all of its equity interest in the customer. The Company may receive additional earnout payments in 2025 and 2026 in an aggregate amount of up to approximately $3.6 million if certain conditions are met.

On August 10, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the grant of nonqualified stock options to an employee to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.60 per share, which amount represents the closing price of the Company’s common stock on such date.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under Item 1A. Risk Factors appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

Unless expressly indicated or the context requires otherwise, the terms “Forian”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to Forian Inc.

Overview

Forian Inc. (the “Company” or “Forian”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 15, 2020 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC (“MOR”) for the purpose of effecting the business combination with Helix Technologies Inc. (“Helix”). Forian provides a unique suite of data management capabilities and proprietary information and analytics solutions to optimize and measure operational, clinical and financial performance for customers within the healthcare and related industries.

The business combination with Helix was accounted for as a reverse acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with the Company deemed the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Helix provides software and analytics solutions to state governments and licensed operators in the cannabis industry, primarily through its subsidiary, Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. (“BioTrack”), until its sale of BioTrack in 2023.

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of BioTrack, on March 3, 2022, Helix completed the sale of the assets of its security monitoring business, and on October 31, 2022, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding membership interest of its Engeni LLC subsidiary (these businesses together are referred to as the “Helix Businesses”). As a result of these transactions, Helix has no remaining active operations and the Company no longer provides products or services to the cannabis industry. The results of the Helix Businesses are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Helix Businesses to discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022. The Company will continue to provide analytics solutions to customers within the healthcare and related industries.

Financial Operations Overview

The following discussion sets forth certain components of our statements of operations as well as factors that impact those items.

Revenues

Revenues are derived from licensing fees for our proprietary information products. The Company recognizes revenues from information products as performance obligations under customer contracts are satisfied. Services revenues are primarily from contracts with government agencies and revenue is recognized upon completion of the various milestones within the contract.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues is generated from direct costs associated with the delivery of our products and services to our customers. The cost of revenues relates primarily to labor costs, information licensing, hosting and infrastructure costs and client service team costs. We record the cost of direct fulfillment as cost of revenues.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee-related expenses, subcontractor and third-party consulting fees, and hosted infrastructure costs. We continue to focus our research and development efforts on adding new features and applications to our product offerings.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expense is primarily salaries and related expenses, including commissions, for our sales, marketing and product management staff. Marketing program costs are also recorded as sales and marketing expense including advertising, market research and events (such as trade shows, corporate communications, brand building, etc.). The Company plans to continue to invest in marketing and sales by expanding our selling and marketing staff, building brand awareness, attracting new clients and sponsoring additional marketing events. The timing of these marketing events will affect our marketing costs in any particular quarter.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include salaries and benefits and other costs of departments serving administrative functions, such as executives, finance and accounting and human resources. In addition, general and administrative expense includes non-personnel costs, such as professional fees, legal fees, accounting and finance advisory fees and other supporting corporate expenses not allocated to cost of revenues, product and development or sales and marketing.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

Depreciation and Amortization relate to long lived assets used in our business. Depreciation expense relates primarily to furniture and equipment, and computers.

Separation Expenses

Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, (i) salary continuation for 12 months and (ii) accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of the Company common stock. Separation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 include $250,000 related to the salary continuation and $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock.

32

On March 2, 2022, the Company and two advisors agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. The advisors were the former chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Helix who were granted stock options in conjunction with their respective advisory agreements that were entered into upon the completion of the Helix acquisition. The Company and the advisors mutually agreed not to renew the advisory agreements. The services provided by these advisors included transition planning and consulting services related to integration of the business operations of Helix and Forian. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through March 2, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we have provided a non-GAAP measure, which we define as financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measure provided herein is earnings before interest, taxes, non-cash and other items (“Adjusted EBITDA”), which should be viewed as supplemental to, and not as an alternative for, net income or loss calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP (referred to below as “net loss”).

Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management as an additional measure of our Company’s performance for purposes of business decision-making, including developing budgets, managing expenditures and evaluating potential acquisitions or divestitures. Period-to-period comparisons of Adjusted EBITDA help our management identify additional trends in our Company’s financial results that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparisons of net loss. In addition, we may use Adjusted EBITDA in the incentive compensation programs applicable to some of our employees in order to evaluate our Company’s performance. Our management recognizes that Adjusted EBITDA has inherent limitations because of the excluded items, particularly those items that are recurring in nature. In order to compensate for those limitations, management also reviews the specific items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, but included in net loss, as well as trends in those items contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in their analysis of our results for reasons similar to the reasons why our management finds it useful and because it helps facilitate investor understanding of decisions made by management in light of the performance metrics used in making those decisions. In addition, as more fully described below, we believe that providing Adjusted EBITDA, together with a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA, helps investors make comparisons between our Company and other companies that may have different capital structures, different effective income tax rates and tax attributes, different capitalized asset values and/or different forms of employee compensation. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended as a substitute for comparisons based on net loss. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measures and the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures provided by each company under applicable SEC rules.

The following is an explanation of the items excluded by us from Adjusted EBITDA but included in net loss from continuing operations:

• Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense is a non-cash expense relating to capital expenditures and intangible assets arising from acquisitions that are expensed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related assets. We exclude depreciation and amortization expense from Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods as a result of new acquisitions and full amortization of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets. Accordingly, we believe that this exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance. Investors should note that the use of tangible and intangible assets contributed to revenue in the periods presented and will contribute to future revenue generation and should also note that such expense will recur in future periods.

33

• Stock-Based Compensation Expense. Stock-based compensation expense is a non-cash expense arising from the grant of stock-based awards to employees. We believe that excluding the effect of stock-based compensation from Adjusted EBITDA assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons in our Company’s operating performance because (i) the amount of such expenses in any specific period may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations and (ii) such expenses can vary significantly between periods as a result of the timing of grants of new stock-based awards, including grants in connection with acquisitions. Stock-based compensation expense includes certain separation expenses related to the vesting of stock options. Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of the Company common stock. Stock based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 includes $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock. On March 2, 2022, we and the former chief executive officer and the former chief financial officer of Helix mutually agreed not to renew special advisor agreements. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, we recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expenses during March 2022 related to the options that vested through the twelve months ending March 2, 2023. We believe that excluding stock-based compensation from Adjusted EBITDA assists management and investors in making meaningful comparisons between our Company’s operating performance and the operating performance of other companies that may use different forms of employee compensation or different valuation methodologies for their stock-based compensation. Investors should note that stock-based compensation is a key incentive offered to employees whose efforts contributed to the operating results in the periods presented and are expected to contribute to operating results in future periods. Investors should also note that such expenses will recur in the future.

• Interest Expense. Interest expense is associated with the convertible notes entered into on September 1, 2021 in the amount of $24,000,000 (the “Notes”). The Notes are due on September 1, 2025 and accrue interest at an annual rate of 3.5%. We exclude interest expense from Adjusted EBITDA (i) because it is not directly attributable to the performance of our business operations and, accordingly, its exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance and (ii) to assist management and investors in making comparisons to companies with different capital structures. Investors should note that interest expense associated with the Notes will recur in future periods.

• Investment Income. Investment income is associated with the level of marketable debt securities and other interest-bearing accounts in which we invest. Interest and investment income can vary over time due to a variety of financing transactions, changes in interest rates, cash used to fund operations and capital expenditures and acquisitions that we have entered into or may enter into in the future. We exclude interest and investment income from Adjusted EBITDA (i) because these items are not directly attributable to the performance of our business operations and, accordingly, their exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance and (ii) to assist management and investors in making comparisons to companies with different capital structures. Investors should note that interest income will recur in future periods.

34

• Other Items. We engage in other activities and transactions that can impact our net loss. In the periods being reported, these other items included (i) change in fair value of warrant liability which related to warrants assumed in the acquisition of Helix; and (ii) other income which consists of profits on marketable security investments. We exclude these other items from Adjusted EBITDA because we believe these activities or transactions are not directly attributable to the performance of our business operations and, accordingly, their exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance. Investors should note that some of these other items may recur in future periods.

• Severance expenses. Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, (i) salary continuation for twelve months and (ii) accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of the Company common stock. Severance expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $250,000 related to the salary continuation. We exclude these other items from Adjusted EBITDA because we believe these costs are not recurring and not directly attributable to the performance of our business operations and, accordingly, their exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance. In addition, the Company records normal course of business severance expenses in the operating expense line item related to our employees’ activities.

• Income tax expense. We exclude the income tax expense from Adjusted EBITDA (i) because we believe that the income tax expense is not directly attributable to the underlying performance of our business operations and, accordingly, its exclusion assists management and investors in making period-to-period comparisons of operating performance and (ii) to assist management and investors in making comparisons to companies with different tax attributes.

Limitations on the use of non-GAAP financial measures

There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures because non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures are limited in value because they exclude certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which items are adjusted to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures. We compensate for these limitations by analyzing current and future results on a U.S. GAAP basis as well as a non-GAAP basis and also by providing U.S. GAAP measures in our public disclosures.

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We encourage investors and others to review our financial information in its entirety, not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business and to view our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures.

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023

Adjusted EBITDA - continuing operations

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $67,059 compared to a loss of $2,537,648 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2,604,707. The increase is primarily due to higher revenues and the lower research and development and general and administrative expenses discussed above.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

Adjusted EBITDA - continuing operations

Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was a loss of $204,075 compared to a loss of $5,233,323 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $5,029,248. The decrease is primarily due to higher revenues and the lower research and development and general and administrative expenses discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since the Company’s inception in 2020, most of the Company’s resources have been devoted to scaling our research and development, sales and marketing, and management infrastructure. The Company’s operations have been financed primarily from the cash proceeds received from equity issuances and the issuance of the Notes. The Company expects to continue to fund its operations and potential future acquisitions through a combination of cash flow generated from operating activities, debt financing, and/or additional equity issuances. To date, the Company has not generated sufficient revenues from the licensing of information products to fund all of its operating expenses and as a result the Company has incurred losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since inception. On February 10, 2023 the Company sold BioTrack for $30.0 million consisting of $20.0 million in cash at closing and twelve unconditional monthly payments aggregating $10.0 million thereafter. As of June 30, 2023, the Company’s balance of cash and marketable securities aggregated $41.2 million. Additionally the Company has proceeds receivable from the BioTrack sale of $6.7 million and principal and accrued interest on the Notes, due September 1, 2025, of $25.5 million outstanding at June 30, 2023.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes selected information about our sources and uses of cash and cash equivalents for the periods presented:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2023			2022
Net cash used in operating activities - continuing operations	$	(1,418,149	)	$	(4,386,089	)
Net cash provided by investing activities - continuing operations		1,711,284			1,019,759
Net cash used in financing activities - continuing operations		(127,357	)		(71,207	)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents - continuing operations	$	165,778		$	(3,437,537	)

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $2,967,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily the result of a decreased Adjusted EBITDA loss, partially offset by changes in deferred revenue, accounts payable and other working capital accounts related to the timing of cash flows from operations.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities of $1,711,284 increased by $691,525 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to cash used in investing activities of $1,019,759 for the for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This is primarily the result of an increase in net purchases of marketable securities, offset by an increase in cash received from the sale of discontinued operations.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities of $127,357 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $56,150 compared to cash used in financing activities of $71,207 for the for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily related to cash used to fund income tax withholding payments on vesting of employee restricted stock which was settled by surrendering shares to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe that several accounting policies are important to understanding our historical and future performance. We refer to these policies as critical because these specific areas generally require us to make judgments and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time we make the estimate, and different estimates – which also would have been reasonable – could have been used. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and other market-specific or other relevant assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

37

Critical accounting policies and estimates are further discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. There have been no changes to these policies and estimates other than described below.

Discontinued Operations

In accordance with ASC 205-20 Discontinued Operations, the results of the Helix Businesses are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Helix Businesses as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022, and recorded a gain on the sale of discontinued operations, net of tax during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company evaluated the divestitures in accordance with ASC 205-20 and determined that transactions in aggregate represented a strategic shift that had a major impact on the Company. Accounting for discontinued operations and the related gain on sale of discontinued operations requires us to make estimates and judgements regarding the allocation of costs and net asset values to discontinued operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). The FASB issued ASU 2021-08 to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. ASU 2021-08 was adopted on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements.

JOBS Act

On April 5, 2012, the JOBS Act was signed into law. The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for an “emerging growth company.” As an “emerging growth company,” the Company is electing to take advantage of the extended transition period afforded by the JOBS Act for the implementation of new or revised accounting standards.

Subject to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, as an “emerging growth company,” the Company is not required to, among other things, (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis), and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation-related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply until the fifth anniversary of the business combination or until we no longer meet the requirements for being an “emerging growth company,” whichever occurs first.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

This item is not required.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer (who is also the Company’s principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (who is also the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023, which is the end of the three-month period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting as disclosed in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer therefore concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 remain ineffective to the extent of the material weaknesses identified.

We have implemented several processes and control procedures in 2022 and 2023, including those outlined below, to remediate the deficiencies noted above.

We currently are assessing and improving the operating effectiveness of these controls to ensure they will operate at an acceptable level of assurance.

We have hired additional personnel and outside consultants to fill accounting functions and expect to hire and train additional personnel. In addition, we are in the process of implementing upgraded accounting and finance systems, which we expect will enhance our ability to implement appropriate internal controls.

We have contracted an outside consulting firm to assist in the overall evaluation and documentation of the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. We are implementing newly designed controls and testing their operating effectiveness.

We believe these actions, when complete, will remediate the control weaknesses. However, the weaknesses will not be considered fully remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time for management to test the results for operating effectiveness. Once implemented, we intend to continue periodic testing and reporting of the internal controls to ensure continuity of compliance.

39

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except for the items described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time we may be involved in claims that arise during the ordinary course of business. For any matters where management currently believes it is probable that we will incur a loss and that the probable loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, we record reserves in our condensed consolidated financial statements based on our best estimates of such loss. In other instances, because of the uncertainties related to either the probable outcome or the amount or range of loss, management is unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability, if any. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can be costly and time consuming, and it can divert management’s attention from important business matters and initiatives, negatively impacting our overall operations. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not currently have any pending litigation to which we are a party or to which our property is subject that we believe to be material, except for the below.

Audet v. Green Tree International, et. al.

On February 14, 2020, John Audet filed a complaint in 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida against multiple parties, including Green Tree International (“GTI”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, claiming that he owned 10% of GTI. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages equivalent to the value a 10% shareholder of GTI would have received in the subsequent Helix and Forian transactions, along with an equitable accounting and constructive trust to determine if Audet suffered any loss of profit distributions. The case is in the process of discovery and trial is currently scheduled to occur between September and December of 2023. Each of the parties’ motions for summary judgment were denied. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

Grant Whitus et al. v. Forian Inc., Zachary Venegas and Scott Ogur

On July 30, 2021, four former Helix employees filed a lawsuit in the Arapahoe County, Colorado District Court against the Company and Helix’s former managers asserting claims of breach of contract, promissory estoppel, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, civil theft and conversion, fraudulent misrepresentation, civil conspiracy, and unjust enrichment / quantum meruit, all relating to the plaintiffs’ claims that they were promised equity interest in Helix or compensation that they never received. The original complaint was never served, and in November 2021, the plaintiffs filed and served an amended complaint adding a fifth plaintiff and seeking over $27.5 million in damages as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company removed the matter to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado in December 2021, and both the Company and the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss on January 20, 2022. Plaintiffs subsequently amended their complaint on April 21, 2022, adding Helix TCS LLC and Helix Technologies, Inc. as defendants and advancing additional claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violation of the Colorado Wage Claims Act. The Company and the individual defendants filed separate motions to dismiss on June 1, 2022, which were granted in part and denied in part by the Court on February 28, 2023. Plaintiffs supplemented their complaint on March 3, 2023, consistent with the Court’s ruling. Written discovery, which commenced in July 2022, is ongoing. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS [Abstract]

BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Note 1
BUSINESS ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Forian Inc. (the “Company” or “Forian”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 15, 2020 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC (“MOR”) for the purpose of effecting the business combination with Helix Technologies Inc. (“Helix”). Forian provides a unique suite of data management capabilities and proprietary information and analytics solutions to optimize and measure operational, clinical and financial performance for customers within the healthcare and related industries.

The business combination with Helix was accounted for as a reverse acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with the Company deemed the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Helix provides software and analytics solutions to state governments and licensed operators in the cannabis industry, primarily through its subsidiary, Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. (“BioTrack”), until its sale of BioTrack in 2023.

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of BioTrack, on March 3, 2022, Helix completed the sale of the assets of its security monitoring business, and on October 31, 2022, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding membership interest of its Engeni LLC subsidiary (these businesses together are referred to as the “Helix Businesses”). As a result of these transactions, Helix has no remaining active operations and the Company no longer provides products or services to the cannabis industry. The results of the Helix Businesses are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and, as such, have been excluded from continuing operations. Further, the Company reclassified the assets and liabilities of the Helix Businesses to discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022. The Company will continue to provide analytics solutions to customers within the healthcare and related industries. For further discussion on the discontinued operations, refer to Note 4.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Note 3
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of (i) Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC and (ii) Helix Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Helix TCS, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Security Consultants Group, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Helix Legacy, Inc. (f/k/a Security Grade Protective Services, Ltd.), Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc (through February 10, 2023), and Engeni, LLC (including Engeni S.A. (“Engeni SA”), which is 99% owned by Engeni, LLC) (through October 31, 2022). Effective October 31, 2022, 100% of the outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC held by Helix was sold. Effective December 31, 2022, (i) Security Consultants Group, LLC was merged with and into Helix TCS, LLC and (ii) Helix TCS, LLC was merged with and into Helix Legacy, Inc. On February 10, 2023, 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. was sold. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Discontinued Operations

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTrack.

On March 3, 2022, the Company sold certain assets, consisting of customer contracts, accounts receivable, and other property related to its security monitoring services. On October 31, 2022, the Company sold 100% of its outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC for a note with payments of up to $100,000 if certain conditions are met.

As the sale of BioTrack, the security monitoring business and Engeni, LLC, together, represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations separate from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, as applicable. The results from operations and gain (loss) on sale of the security monitoring business and Engeni LLC, net, was previously classified as part of continuing operations as their disposition individually did not have a major impact on the business prior to the sale of BioTrack. For further discussion, refer to Note 4.

Foreign Currency

ASC Topic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”), requires the use of highly inflationary accounting when a country has experienced a cumulative inflation of approximately 100% or more over a 3-year period. Under highly inflationary accounting, financial statements are remeasured into the reporting currency with resulting gains and losses included in earnings. The Company acquired a subsidiary as part of the Helix acquisition that operates in Argentina, which has been designated a highly inflationary economy. Accordingly, the Company has remeasured the financial statements of the subsidiary under ASC 830-10 as if the US dollar is its functional currency with resulting gains or losses as other income or expense. The Company sold all of the assets of its operations in Argentina, Engeni LLC and Engeni SA, during October 2022. The financial results of the Company’s Argentina operations are included in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, sales in Argentina, which are included in discontinued operations, were less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated sales. The hyperinflationary conditions did not have a material impact on the Company’s business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses together with amounts disclosed in related notes to the financial statements. The significant areas of estimation include but are not limited to accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, contingencies, discontinued operations and stock-based compensation. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is possible that the external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. Certain personnel, information licensing and data processing costs that were previously classified in research and development expenses when the Company’s healthcare information business was in its start-up stage were reclassified to cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable; and

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company’s warrant liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $2,053 and $4,547, respectively, based on Level 3 inputs. Refer to Note 9.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Credit Risk

The Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, as cash and cash equivalents.

The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held at U.S. bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. The portion of deposits in excess of FDIC coverage is not protected by such insurance and represents a credit risk to the Company. At times, the Company’s deposits exceed this coverage.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $78,422 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Management charges account balances against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations, net

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations consists of eight remaining monthly payments due through February 10, 2024 resulting from the sale of BioTrack, aggregating $6,666,667, less an unamortized discount of $164,958. The Company recognized $190,000 and $245,041 of amortization of the $410,000 discount in interest and investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets, Including Definite Lived Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows derived from such assets. Definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, software technology and trade names. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. When an impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually.

Goodwill

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, it is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce its fair value below its carrying amount.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. The qualitative factors considered by Forian may include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, the Company’s outlook, market performance of the Company’s industry and recent and forecasted financial performance. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and to determine whether further action is needed. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the quantitative impairment test is unnecessary. An impairment charge is recognized when the fair value of the Company’s goodwill is less than its carrying amount. No impairment losses have been recognized during the periods presented.

All of the Company’s previously reported goodwill related to discontinued operations and has been classified as non-current assets of discontinued operations at December 31, 2022. See Note 4 – Discontinued Operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when (or as) customers obtain control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue following the five-step model prescribed under ASC 606: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 606 to an arrangement when a substantive contract exists and collectability is probable.

The Company derives revenue primarily from license fees for the Company’s information products. Information products contracts are generally for a period of one month to five years. Information products’ customers may access data analytics products through the use of tools provided by the Company or by utilizing their own tools per the contract. Data products may consist of historical information as it exists at the time of delivery or information that will be updated over a period of time as agreed with the customer. In most cases, the provision of information products is considered a single performance obligation. In cases where the Company is not obligated to update information over the access period, and control over the use of the products passes to the customer when delivered, revenue is recognized when the information products are made available to the customer. In cases where information updates are provided over the contract term, they are considered highly interrelated with the information product delivered upon contract inception, and revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract. Customers are generally invoiced according to monthly, quarterly or annual amounts specified in the contract. Any amounts invoiced in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced is recorded as a contract asset.

In some cases, contracts provide for variable consideration that is contingent upon the occurrence of uncertain future events, which can either increase or decrease the transaction price, including sales of products by customers derived from data analytics products the Company provides. Variable consideration based on sales of products by customers is recognized in the period of sales, subject to minimum amounts specified in contracts. Variable consideration is estimated at the expected value or at the most likely amount depending on the type of consideration. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The estimate of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to the Company and reevaluated each reporting period. The effect of revisions in recognized estimated variable consideration in excess of minimums are recorded beginning in the period in which the estimates are revised. Actual results could differ from periodic estimates.

Significant judgments and estimates are sometimes necessary for the determination of whether performance obligations in a contract are distinct and whether they are delivered at a point in time or over time. Judgement is also necessary to assess revenue recognized under contingent revenue arrangements.

Contract acquisition costs, which consist of sales commissions paid or payable, are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions for initial and renewal contracts are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term.

During November 2020, the Company entered into a Master Services Agreement (the “November 2020 Agreement”) with a customer to provide information services described in certain statements of work under the November 2020 Agreement. As part of the November 2020 Agreement, the Company was granted shares of restricted stock representing approximately 23.4% of the outstanding common stock of the customer at the time of issuance, vesting in quarterly increments specified in the November 2020 Agreement through December 2023. Concurrently, the Company entered into a Stockholders Agreement specifying its voting and other rights as a stockholder. As a result, the Company determined that it does not exert influence over the customer. ASC 606-10-32-21 requires an entity to measure the fair value of noncash consideration at contract inception. The fair value of the restricted stock was determined to be $0 on the date of inception. The Company recorded revenue from the customer of $654,489, $1,306,251, $377,276, and $754,466 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company has outstanding accounts receivable from this customer of $1,331,759 and $469,786 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Note 17.

 Contract assets and deferred revenues consist of the following as of June 30, 2023:

	Contract Assets								Contract Liability
	Costs of obtaining contracts		Unbilled revenue			Total			Deferred Revenue

Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes unearned revenue and unbilled amounts that will be recognized as revenue in future periods. The majority of the Company’s noncurrent remaining performance obligations will be recognized over the next 36 months.

The transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Estimated next twelve months	$	16,980,376	$	15,790,233
Thereafter		22,499,147		22,192,028
Total	$	39,479,523	$	37,982,261

Segment Information

FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer, who reviews the financial performance and the results of operations of the segments prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company.

Customer Concentration

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had two customers representing 13.4% and 12.6% of revenue. At June 30, 2023, the Company had three customers representing 34.7%, 14.3% and 11.8% of accounts receivable.  

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had two customers representing 17.0% and 10.5% of revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 15.8%, 10.6% and 10.3% of revenue. At December 31, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 25.9%, 14.8% and 14.6% of accounts receivable.

Concentration of Vendors

The Company licenses certain information assets from third parties as a key input to certain Information and Software products. Any disruption associated with these suppliers could have a material short-term impact on the business while alternate sources are secured.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, which is recorded commencing at the in-service date using the straight-line method at rates sufficient to charge the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, which are 1 to 7 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets annually and whenever events and or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Such indicators include, among others, the nature of the asset, the projected future economic benefit of the asset, historical and future cash flows and profitability measurements. An impairment loss would be recognized when the value of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying value. There were no impairment losses recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for costs incurred in the development of computer software in accordance with ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software and ASC Subtopic 985-20, Software Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed. Product development costs are primarily related to Company personnel and contractors for design and evaluating software development, testing, bug fixes and other maintenance activities. Product development costs incurred in the application development stage for internal use software are subject to capitalization and subsequent amortization, and possible impairment. The Company begins to capitalize these costs when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software would be used as intended. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. Such costs are amortized when placed in service, on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally estimated to be three years. Product development costs not pertaining to the application development stage are expensed as incurred.

Contingencies

Occasionally, the Company may be involved in claims and legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a provision for a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If these estimates and assumptions change or prove to be incorrect, it could have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Contingencies are inherently unpredictable, and the assessments of the value can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in sales and marketing expenses and amounted to $20,294, $35,419, $0 and $2,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The calculation of earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares or ordinary stock equivalents outstanding during the applicable period. The dilutive effect of ordinary stock equivalents is excluded from basic earnings per share and is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, unless their impact is antidilutive to the “control number”, which is loss from continuing operations. Employee equity share options and similar equity instruments granted by the Company are treated as potential ordinary shares outstanding in computing diluted earnings per share. Diluted shares outstanding are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of benefits that would be recorded in ordinary shares when the award becomes deductible for tax purposes are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company relies on the guidance provided by ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), to classify certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares.

Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the balance sheet (“temporary equity”). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e. at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity.

Initial Measurement

The Company records its financial instruments classified as liability, temporary equity or permanent equity at issuance at the fair value, or cash received.

Subsequent Measurement – Financial instruments classified as liabilities

The Company records the fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities at each subsequent measurement date. The changes in fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities are recorded as other expense/income.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“2020 Plan”) permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units. A total of 4,000,000 shares of Company common stock were originally authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan. On June 15, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2020 Plan, which amended the 2020 Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance by 2,400,000 shares to a total of 6,400,000 shares. Stock options represent the right to purchase Company common stock at the exercise price on the date of grant of the stock option at a future date. Restricted stock awards are grants of shares of Company common stock. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of Company common stock on future specified dates. Stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted contain restrictions that cause them to be subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and restrict their exercise, sale or other transfer by the grantee until they vest. The terms of the stock options, restricted stock awards and units granted under the 2020 Plan are determined by the Board of Directors in the agreement evidencing the award, including the number of shares, period of restriction or vesting schedule and other terms. The fair value of the stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units is based on the underlying grant date fair value of Company common stock. The fair value is then expensed over the requisite service periods of the awards, net of forfeitures, which is generally the service period and the related amount is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 (“ASC 740”). Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, which are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The provision for income taxes represents Federal and state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of state and local income taxes, tax benefit of R&D credits, and certain nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, derecognition, or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized net income tax expense of $36,187, $66,096, $5,000 and $10,000, respectively. The Company claims R&D tax credits on eligible R&D expenditures. The R&D tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense.

The Company recognized a taxable gain on sale of discontinued operations during the for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which resulted in utilization of certain available federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, the Company recorded income taxes related to discontinued operations of $2,722,570 after utilization of federal and state net operating losses during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Income taxes related to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 result from adjustments to estimates impacting intraperiod tax allocations.

The Company files a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in certain state and local jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is not subject to examination in any tax jurisdictions.

Tax contingencies are recorded, if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was enacted and signed into law. Regarded as the reduced version of the proposed Build Back Better Act, the IRA contains two main corporate income tax provisions, including a 15% minimum tax on the average annual adjusted financial statement income of corporations with profits over $1 billion over a three-year period, as well as a 1% excise tax on the corporate stock buybacks by domestic publicly traded corporations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the IRA on its financial statements for tax year 2023 but does not expect a material impact to the Company’s tax position.

Separation Expenses

Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, (i) salary continuation for twelve months and (ii) accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of Company common stock. Separation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 include $250,000 related to the salary continuation and $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock. There were no such expenses incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

On March 2, 2022, the Company and two advisors agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. The advisors were the former chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Helix who were granted stock options in conjunction with their respective advisory agreements that were entered into upon the completion of the Helix acquisition. The Company and the advisors mutually agreed not to renew the advisory agreements. The services provided by these advisors included transition planning and consulting services related to integration of the business operations of Helix and Forian. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through  March 2, 2023.

In addition, the Company records normal course of business severance expenses in the operating expense line item related to its employees’ activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). The FASB issued ASU 2021-08 to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendment is effective for financial statements for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2021-08 was adopted on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Helix Businesses Discontinued Operations

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTrack, in exchange for $30.0 million, consisting of $20.0 million paid at closing and $10.0 million paid in twelve unconditional monthly installments thereafter. In March 2022, Helix sold its security monitoring business and in October 2022, sold its Argentinian subsidiary, Engeni LLC. The security monitoring business, BioTrack and Engeni are collectively referred to as the “Helix Businesses.” As a result of these transactions, as of February 10, 2023, the Company no longer provides products or services to the cannabis industry. The Company continues to provide analytics solutions to customers in the healthcare and related industries.

The Company recognized a gain on sale of BioTrack of $11,531,849 and a loss from discontinued operations of $94,427 during the six months ended June 30, 2023, which is included as part of discontinued operations. The Company also recorded income taxes related to discontinued operations of $32,426 and $2,722,570 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

The Company recorded a gain on the sale of assets related to its security monitoring business of $202,159 during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The amount was reclassified to discontinued operations in 2023 as it was part of a strategic shift which became significant to the Company’s operations upon the sale of BioTrack.

WARRANT LIABILITY

Note 9
WARRANT LIABILITY

In conjunction with the business combination with Helix, outstanding warrants to purchase Helix common stock were converted to warrants to purchase Company common stock. As the warrant holders have the option to receive cash in lieu of common stock in certain circumstances, the Company determined that the warrants require classification as a liability pursuant to ASC 815-40. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the outstanding warrants are recognized as a warrant liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet and were measured at their inception date fair value (the closing date of the business combination with Helix) and subsequently re-measured at each reporting period with changes being recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 55,121 and 92,058 warrants outstanding classified as liabilities, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 36,936 warrants expired.

The fair value of the Company’s warrant liability, measured at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy,  was calculated using the Black-Scholes model and the following inputs:

	As of June 30, 2023			As of December 31, 2022
Fair value of Company's common stock	$	2.45		$	2.73

Convertible note payable, net of debt issuance costs	$	25,525,762		$	25,106,547

On September 1, 2021, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors and a director of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued at 100% of par value $24,000,000 in aggregate principal balance of 3.5% Convertible Promissory Notes due September 1, 2025 (the “Notes”), convertible into (i) shares of Company common stock, and (ii) warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock equal to 20% of the principal amount of the Notes divided by the conversion price of the Notes (the “Warrants”). The Notes will mature on the fourth-year anniversary of the date of issuance, which time is also the termination date of the Warrants if issued. The conversion price of the Notes and the exercise price of the Warrants is $11.98 per share, which was the consolidated closing bid price of the Company common stock as reported by Nasdaq on August 31, 2021, the most recently completed trading day preceding the Company entering into the Note Purchase Agreement with investors with respect to the Notes. The holders of the Notes may, at any time, convert all or a portion of the Notes plus accrued interest (subject to a minimum principal amount of $100,000) at the conversion price. The Company may redeem all or a portion of any Notes then outstanding at any time after the first anniversary of issuance at a price of 112.5% of par value plus accrued interest. In the event of a change of control of the Company, the Company may redeem all Notes then outstanding at a price of 108% of par value plus accrued interest. Interest expense on the Notes is payable upon maturity or earlier redemption unless the Notes are converted prior to such time. In the event the holders of the Note convert all or a portion of the Notes, the related accrued interest is converted at the conversion price. Interest expense related to the Notes was $209,425, $416,548, $207,315 and $417,315 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company evaluated the embedded features in accordance with ASC 815-15-25 and determined embedded features are all clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument and therefore are not required to be bifurcated and separately measured at fair value. The Warrants were not issued in connection with the Notes, and issuance of the Warrants is contingent upon conversion of the Notes at the option of the Holder, therefore no portion of the proceeds are allocated to the Warrants.

The Company incurred debt issuance costs associated with the Notes in the amount of $21,330, which were deferred and  are being amortized over the term of the Notes. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized $1,333, $2,667, $1,333 and $2,666 in amortization of debt issuance costs, respectively.

The 865,606 of unvested awards at June 30, 2023 consisted of 128,608 restricted stock units and 736,998 shares of restricted stock.

Stock Options

As part of the business combination with Helix, the Company assumed the Helix TCS, Inc. Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan and the Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, each as amended, pursuant to which options exercisable at prices between $2.00 and $51.80 per share for 455,089 shares of Company common stock were outstanding. The value attributable to service subsequent to the business combination is recognized as compensation cost by the Company.

The fair value of the stock options was estimated at Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgement. The assumptions used to calculate the grant date fair value of the options outstanding at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are as follows:

	June 30, 2023			December 31, 2022

The weighted average exercise price and remaining contractual life of exercisable options as of June 30, 2023 is $7.54 and 8.54 years, respectively. The total aggregate intrinsic value of the exercisable options as of June 30, 2023 was approximately $25,482.

Stock Compensation Expense

The weighted-average grant date fair value per share for the stock options granted was $3.42 and $6.17 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of the Company common stock. Stock based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 includes $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock.

On March 2, 2022, the Company and the former chief executive officer and the former chief financial officer of Helix mutually agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through March 2, 2023.

At June 30, 2023, the total unrecognized stock compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards and restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted was $13,823,992, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.86 years. Stock compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

SEGMENT RESULTS

Note 14
SEGMENT RESULTS

The Company provides innovative solutions, proprietary data and predictive analytics to optimize the operational, clinical and financial performance of its customers.

ASC 280 requires that public companies report profits and losses and certain other information on their “reportable operating segments” in their annual and interim financial statements. The internal organization used by the public company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) to assess performance and allocate resources determines the basis for reportable operating segments. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM evaluates financial performance based on revenues and operating income.

As discussed above, the Company disposed of its businesses servicing the cannabis industry in 2023, and has reclassified their historical results as discontinued operations. As such, the Company’s continuing operations are comprised of a single reportable segment providing analytic and information services to the healthcare and related industries.

LEASES [Abstract]

LEASES

Note 15 LEASES

Operating Leases

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). All contracts are evaluated to determine whether or not they represent a lease. A lease conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of facilities with remaining lease terms of 1-5 years. The lease term represents the period up to the early termination date unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will not exercise the early termination option. Certain leases include rental payments that are adjusted periodically based on changes in consumer price and other indices.

Leases are classified as finance or operating in accordance with the guidance in ASC 842. The Company does not hold any finance leases.

The Company is obligated under two short-term leases related to offices in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. These short-term leases are currently leased on a month-to-month basis. A short-term lease is a lease with a term of 12 months or less and does not include the option to purchase the underlying asset that we would expect to exercise. The Company has elected to adopt the short-term lease exemption in ASC 842 and as such has not recognized a “right of use” asset or lease liability for these short-term leases.

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, therefore an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments.

Supplemental cash flow information and non-cash activity related to leases for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Legal Proceedings

From time to time the Company may be involved in claims that arise during the ordinary course of business. For any matters where management currently believes it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and that the probable loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company records reserves in the condensed consolidated financial statements based on its best estimates of such loss. In other instances, because of the uncertainties related to either the probable outcome or the amount or range of loss, management is unable to make a reasonable estimate of a liability, if any. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can be costly and time consuming, and it can divert management’s attention from important business matters and initiatives, negatively impacting the Company’s overall operations. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not currently have any pending litigation to which it is a party or to which its property is subject that we believe to be material, except for the below.

Audet v. Green Tree International, et. al.

On February 14, 2020, John Audet filed a complaint in 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida against multiple parties, including Green Tree International (“GTI”), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, claiming that he owned 10% of GTI. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages equivalent to the value a 10% shareholder of GTI would have received in the subsequent Helix and Forian transactions, along with an equitable accounting and constructive trust to determine if Audet suffered any loss of profit distributions. The case is in the process of discovery and trial is currently scheduled to occur between September and December of 2023. Each of the parties’ motions for summary judgment were denied. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

Grant Whitus et al. v. Forian Inc., Zachary Venegas and Scott Ogur

On July 30, 2021, four former Helix employees filed a lawsuit in the Arapahoe County, Colorado District Court against the Company and Helix’s former managers asserting claims of breach of contract, promissory estoppel, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, civil theft and conversion, fraudulent misrepresentation, civil conspiracy, and unjust enrichment/quantum meruit, all relating to the plaintiffs’ claims that they were promised equity interest in Helix or compensation that they never received. The original complaint was never served, and in November 2021 the plaintiffs filed and served an amended complaint adding a fifth plaintiff, and seeking over $27.5 million in damages as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Company removed the matter to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado in December 2021, and both the Company and the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss on January 20, 2022. Plaintiffs subsequently amended their complaint on April 21, 2022, adding Helix TCS LLC and Helix Technologies, Inc. as defendants and advancing additional claims for breach of fiduciary duty and violation of the Colorado Wage Claims Act. The Company and the individual defendants filed separate motions to dismiss on June 1, 2022, which were granted in part and denied in part by the Court on February 28, 2023. Plaintiffs supplemented their complaint on March 3, 2023, consistent with the Court’s ruling. Written discovery, which commenced in July 2022, is ongoing. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and intends to defend vigorously against the claims in the lawsuit.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of (i) Medical Outcomes Research Analytics, LLC and (ii) Helix Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries including Helix TCS, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Security Consultants Group, LLC (through December 31, 2022), Helix Legacy, Inc. (f/k/a Security Grade Protective Services, Ltd.), Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc (through February 10, 2023), and Engeni, LLC (including Engeni S.A. (“Engeni SA”), which is 99% owned by Engeni, LLC) (through October 31, 2022). Effective October 31, 2022, 100% of the outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC held by Helix was sold. Effective December 31, 2022, (i) Security Consultants Group, LLC was merged with and into Helix TCS, LLC and (ii) Helix TCS, LLC was merged with and into Helix Legacy, Inc. On February 10, 2023, 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Bio-Tech Medical Software, Inc. was sold. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued Operations

On February 10, 2023, Helix completed the sale of 100% of the outstanding capital stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, BioTrack.

On March 3, 2022, the Company sold certain assets, consisting of customer contracts, accounts receivable, and other property related to its security monitoring services. On October 31, 2022, the Company sold 100% of its outstanding membership interest of Engeni, LLC for a note with payments of up to $100,000 if certain conditions are met.

As the sale of BioTrack, the security monitoring business and Engeni, LLC, together, represented a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results, they have been presented in discontinued operations separate from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, as applicable. The results from operations and gain (loss) on sale of the security monitoring business and Engeni LLC, net, was previously classified as part of continuing operations as their disposition individually did not have a major impact on the business prior to the sale of BioTrack. For further discussion, refer to Note 4.

Foreign Currency

Foreign Currency

ASC Topic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”), requires the use of highly inflationary accounting when a country has experienced a cumulative inflation of approximately 100% or more over a 3-year period. Under highly inflationary accounting, financial statements are remeasured into the reporting currency with resulting gains and losses included in earnings. The Company acquired a subsidiary as part of the Helix acquisition that operates in Argentina, which has been designated a highly inflationary economy. Accordingly, the Company has remeasured the financial statements of the subsidiary under ASC 830-10 as if the US dollar is its functional currency with resulting gains or losses as other income or expense. The Company sold all of the assets of its operations in Argentina, Engeni LLC and Engeni SA, during October 2022. The financial results of the Company’s Argentina operations are included in discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, sales in Argentina, which are included in discontinued operations, were less than 1% of the Company’s consolidated sales. The hyperinflationary conditions did not have a material impact on the Company’s business during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgements and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses together with amounts disclosed in related notes to the financial statements. The significant areas of estimation include but are not limited to accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, income taxes, depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, contingencies, discontinued operations and stock-based compensation. Certain of the Company’s estimates could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is possible that the external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period financial statements to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. Certain personnel, information licensing and data processing costs that were previously classified in research and development expenses when the Company’s healthcare information business was in its start-up stage were reclassified to cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable; and

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company’s warrant liabilities as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $2,053 and $4,547, respectively, based on Level 3 inputs. Refer to Note 9.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Credit Risk

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Credit Risk

The Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, as cash and cash equivalents.

The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held at U.S. bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. The portion of deposits in excess of FDIC coverage is not protected by such insurance and represents a credit risk to the Company. At times, the Company’s deposits exceed this coverage.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $78,422 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Management charges account balances against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Proceeds from Sale of Discontinued Operations, Net

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations, net

Proceeds from sale of discontinued operations consists of eight remaining monthly payments due through February 10, 2024 resulting from the sale of BioTrack, aggregating $6,666,667, less an unamortized discount of $164,958. The Company recognized $190,000 and $245,041 of amortization of the $410,000 discount in interest and investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets, Including Definite Lived Intangible Assets

Long-Lived Assets, Including Definite Lived Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows derived from such assets. Definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of customer relationships, software technology and trade names. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. When an impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized. Instead, it is tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce its fair value below its carrying amount.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. The qualitative factors considered by Forian may include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, the Company’s outlook, market performance of the Company’s industry and recent and forecasted financial performance. Further testing is only required if the entity determines, based on the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. Otherwise, no further impairment testing is required. The Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount and to determine whether further action is needed. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the quantitative impairment test is unnecessary. An impairment charge is recognized when the fair value of the Company’s goodwill is less than its carrying amount. No impairment losses have been recognized during the periods presented.

All of the Company’s previously reported goodwill related to discontinued operations and has been classified as non-current assets of discontinued operations at December 31, 2022. See Note 4 – Discontinued Operations.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).

Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when (or as) customers obtain control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which is expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue following the five-step model prescribed under ASC 606: (i) identify contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenues when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 606 to an arrangement when a substantive contract exists and collectability is probable.

The Company derives revenue primarily from license fees for the Company’s information products. Information products contracts are generally for a period of one month to five years. Information products’ customers may access data analytics products through the use of tools provided by the Company or by utilizing their own tools per the contract. Data products may consist of historical information as it exists at the time of delivery or information that will be updated over a period of time as agreed with the customer. In most cases, the provision of information products is considered a single performance obligation. In cases where the Company is not obligated to update information over the access period, and control over the use of the products passes to the customer when delivered, revenue is recognized when the information products are made available to the customer. In cases where information updates are provided over the contract term, they are considered highly interrelated with the information product delivered upon contract inception, and revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the contract. Customers are generally invoiced according to monthly, quarterly or annual amounts specified in the contract. Any amounts invoiced in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue recognized in excess of amounts invoiced is recorded as a contract asset.

In some cases, contracts provide for variable consideration that is contingent upon the occurrence of uncertain future events, which can either increase or decrease the transaction price, including sales of products by customers derived from data analytics products the Company provides. Variable consideration based on sales of products by customers is recognized in the period of sales, subject to minimum amounts specified in contracts. Variable consideration is estimated at the expected value or at the most likely amount depending on the type of consideration. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The estimate of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available to the Company and reevaluated each reporting period. The effect of revisions in recognized estimated variable consideration in excess of minimums are recorded beginning in the period in which the estimates are revised. Actual results could differ from periodic estimates.

Significant judgments and estimates are sometimes necessary for the determination of whether performance obligations in a contract are distinct and whether they are delivered at a point in time or over time. Judgement is also necessary to assess revenue recognized under contingent revenue arrangements.

Contract acquisition costs, which consist of sales commissions paid or payable, are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. Sales commissions for initial and renewal contracts are deferred and then amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term.

During November 2020, the Company entered into a Master Services Agreement (the “November 2020 Agreement”) with a customer to provide information services described in certain statements of work under the November 2020 Agreement. As part of the November 2020 Agreement, the Company was granted shares of restricted stock representing approximately 23.4% of the outstanding common stock of the customer at the time of issuance, vesting in quarterly increments specified in the November 2020 Agreement through December 2023. Concurrently, the Company entered into a Stockholders Agreement specifying its voting and other rights as a stockholder. As a result, the Company determined that it does not exert influence over the customer. ASC 606-10-32-21 requires an entity to measure the fair value of noncash consideration at contract inception. The fair value of the restricted stock was determined to be $0 on the date of inception. The Company recorded revenue from the customer of $654,489, $1,306,251, $377,276, and $754,466 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company has outstanding accounts receivable from this customer of $1,331,759 and $469,786 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. See Note 17.

Segment Information

Segment Information

FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer, who reviews the financial performance and the results of operations of the segments prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the Company.

Customer Concentration

Customer Concentration

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had two customers representing 13.4% and 12.6% of revenue. At June 30, 2023, the Company had three customers representing 34.7%, 14.3% and 11.8% of accounts receivable.  

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had two customers representing 17.0% and 10.5% of revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 15.8%, 10.6% and 10.3% of revenue. At December 31, 2022, the Company had three customers representing 25.9%, 14.8% and 14.6% of accounts receivable.

Concentration of Vendors

Concentration of Vendors

The Company licenses certain information assets from third parties as a key input to certain Information and Software products. Any disruption associated with these suppliers could have a material short-term impact on the business while alternate sources are secured.

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and Equipment, Net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation, which is recorded commencing at the in-service date using the straight-line method at rates sufficient to charge the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives, which are 1 to 7 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

The Company reviews for the impairment of long-lived assets annually and whenever events and or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Such indicators include, among others, the nature of the asset, the projected future economic benefit of the asset, historical and future cash flows and profitability measurements. An impairment loss would be recognized when the value of the undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying value. There were no impairment losses recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Software Development Costs

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for costs incurred in the development of computer software in accordance with ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software and ASC Subtopic 985-20, Software Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed. Product development costs are primarily related to Company personnel and contractors for design and evaluating software development, testing, bug fixes and other maintenance activities. Product development costs incurred in the application development stage for internal use software are subject to capitalization and subsequent amortization, and possible impairment. The Company begins to capitalize these costs when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software would be used as intended. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. Such costs are amortized when placed in service, on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally estimated to be three years. Product development costs not pertaining to the application development stage are expensed as incurred.

Contingencies

Contingencies

Occasionally, the Company may be involved in claims and legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business. The Company records a provision for a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If these estimates and assumptions change or prove to be incorrect, it could have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Contingencies are inherently unpredictable, and the assessments of the value can involve a series of complex judgments about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions.

Advertising

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in sales and marketing expenses and amounted to $20,294, $35,419, $0 and $2,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net Income (Loss) per Share

The calculation of earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares or ordinary stock equivalents outstanding during the applicable period. The dilutive effect of ordinary stock equivalents is excluded from basic earnings per share and is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, unless their impact is antidilutive to the “control number”, which is loss from continuing operations. Employee equity share options and similar equity instruments granted by the Company are treated as potential ordinary shares outstanding in computing diluted earnings per share. Diluted shares outstanding are calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of benefits that would be recorded in ordinary shares when the award becomes deductible for tax purposes are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity

The Company relies on the guidance provided by ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), to classify certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares.

Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the balance sheet (“temporary equity”). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e. at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity.

Initial Measurement

The Company records its financial instruments classified as liability, temporary equity or permanent equity at issuance at the fair value, or cash received.

Subsequent Measurement – Financial instruments classified as liabilities

The Company records the fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities at each subsequent measurement date. The changes in fair value of its financial instruments classified as liabilities are recorded as other expense/income.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based Compensation

The Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (“2020 Plan”) permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock awards and/or restricted stock units. A total of 4,000,000 shares of Company common stock were originally authorized and reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan. On June 15, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the 2020 Plan, which amended the 2020 Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance by 2,400,000 shares to a total of 6,400,000 shares. Stock options represent the right to purchase Company common stock at the exercise price on the date of grant of the stock option at a future date. Restricted stock awards are grants of shares of Company common stock. Restricted stock units represent the right to receive shares of Company common stock on future specified dates. Stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted contain restrictions that cause them to be subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and restrict their exercise, sale or other transfer by the grantee until they vest. The terms of the stock options, restricted stock awards and units granted under the 2020 Plan are determined by the Board of Directors in the agreement evidencing the award, including the number of shares, period of restriction or vesting schedule and other terms. The fair value of the stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units is based on the underlying grant date fair value of Company common stock. The fair value is then expensed over the requisite service periods of the awards, net of forfeitures, which is generally the service period and the related amount is recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 (“ASC 740”). Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, which are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The provision for income taxes represents Federal and state and local income taxes. The effective rate differs from statutory rates due to the effect of state and local income taxes, tax benefit of R&D credits, and certain nondeductible expenses. Our effective tax rate will change from quarter to quarter based on recurring and non-recurring factors including, but not limited to, the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation and state and local income taxes. In addition, changes in judgment from the evaluation of new information resulting in the recognition, derecognition, or re-measurement of a tax position taken in a prior annual period is recognized separately in the quarter of the change.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized net income tax expense of $36,187, $66,096, $5,000 and $10,000, respectively. The Company claims R&D tax credits on eligible R&D expenditures. The R&D tax credits are recognized as a reduction to income tax expense.

The Company recognized a taxable gain on sale of discontinued operations during the for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which resulted in utilization of certain available federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. As a result, the Company recorded income taxes related to discontinued operations of $2,722,570 after utilization of federal and state net operating losses during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Income taxes related to discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 result from adjustments to estimates impacting intraperiod tax allocations.

The Company files a consolidated U.S. income tax return and tax returns in certain state and local jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is not subject to examination in any tax jurisdictions.

Tax contingencies are recorded, if needed, to address potential exposure involving tax positions the Company has taken that could be challenged by tax authorities. These potential exposures could result from applications of various statutes, rules, regulations and interpretations. Any estimates of tax contingencies contain assumptions and judgments about potential actions by taxing jurisdictions. Any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions would be included as part of the income tax provision. The Company’s conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon ongoing analysis of or changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof as well as other factors.

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IRA”) was enacted and signed into law. Regarded as the reduced version of the proposed Build Back Better Act, the IRA contains two main corporate income tax provisions, including a 15% minimum tax on the average annual adjusted financial statement income of corporations with profits over $1 billion over a three-year period, as well as a 1% excise tax on the corporate stock buybacks by domestic publicly traded corporations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the IRA on its financial statements for tax year 2023 but does not expect a material impact to the Company’s tax position.

Separation Expenses

Separation Expenses

Effective February 10, 2023, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Class II member of the Board of Directors resigned. In connection with the resignation, the Company entered into a separation agreement providing for, among other things, (i) salary continuation for twelve months and (ii) accelerated vesting of 106,656 unvested restricted shares of Company common stock. Separation expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 include $250,000 related to the salary continuation and $349,832 related to the accelerated vesting of stock. There were no such expenses incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

On March 2, 2022, the Company and two advisors agreed not to renew special advisor agreements between the advisors and the Company. The advisors were the former chief executive officer and chief financial officer of Helix who were granted stock options in conjunction with their respective advisory agreements that were entered into upon the completion of the Helix acquisition. The Company and the advisors mutually agreed not to renew the advisory agreements. The services provided by these advisors included transition planning and consulting services related to integration of the business operations of Helix and Forian. Per the terms of the agreements, options to purchase 366,166 shares of common stock continued to vest according to their original terms through March 2, 2023, and unvested stock options to purchase 732,332 shares of common stock were forfeited. The advisors were not required to perform services to the Company beyond the non-renewal date of March 2, 2022. As a result, the Company recorded $5,417,043 of stock compensation expense during March 2022 related to the options that vested through  March 2, 2023.

In addition, the Company records normal course of business severance expenses in the operating expense line item related to its employees’ activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”). The FASB issued ASU 2021-08 to improve the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination by addressing diversity in practice and inconsistency related to recognition of an acquired contract liability and payment terms and their effect on subsequent revenue recognized by the acquirer. The amendment is effective for financial statements for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. ASU 2021-08 was adopted on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2021-08 did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.
