NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation

 

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from the ordinary course of its business, including personal injury, customer contract and employment claims. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to such actions, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

 

There were no material changes in litigation from that reported in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

 

Other Matters

 

The Company is also delinquent in filing sales tax returns for certain states, for which the Company has transacted business. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has recorded tax obligations of approximately $1,544 plus interest and penalties of approximately $1,034. The Company is in the process of determining the regulatory requirements in order to become compliant.

 

The Company maintains a self-funded health insurance program with a stop-loss umbrella policy with a third party insurer to limit the maximum potential liability for individual claims to $100 per person and for a maximum potential claim liability based on member enrollment. With respect to this program, the Company considers historical and projected medical utilization data when estimating its health insurance program liability and related expense. As of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $0 and $68, respectively, in reserve for its self-funded health insurance programs. The reserves are included in “Other current liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

The Company regularly analyzes its reserves for incurred but not reported claims, and for reported but not paid claims related to its reinsurance and self-funded insurance programs. The Company believes its reserves are adequate. However, significant judgment is involved in assessing these reserves such as assessing historical paid claims, average lags between the claims’ incurred date, reported dates and paid dates, and the frequency and severity of claims. There may be differences between actual settlement amounts and recorded reserves and any resulting adjustments are included in expense once a probable amount is known. There were no significant adjustments recorded in the periods covered by this report.
