NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, excepts share and per share data, unaudited)

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include OptimizeRx Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company", "we", "our", or "us").

We are a digital health technology company enabling care-focused engagement between life sciences organizations, healthcare providers, and patients at critical junctures throughout the patient care journey. Connecting over two million U.S. healthcare providers and millions of their patients through an intelligent technology platform embedded within a proprietary point-of-care network, as well as mass digital communications channels, OptimizeRx helps life sciences organizations engage and support their customers. We operate a single reporting segment and, accordingly, the consolidated statements of profit or loss provide this information and it is not presented separately here.

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at June 30, 2024, and our results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, has been derived from the audited consolidated condensed balance sheet as of that date.

Certain information and note disclosures, including a detailed discussion about the Company's significant accounting policies, normally included in our annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024 ("Form 10-K").

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

On October 24, 2023, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding preferred and common stock of Healthy Offers, Inc., a Nevada corporation d/b/a Medicx Health ("Medicx Health") - See Part II, Item 8. Financials Statements and Supplementary Data; Note 3 - Acquisitions in our Form 10-K for additional information regarding this transaction.

The following presents the pro forma consolidated statement of operations as if Medicx Health had been included in the consolidated results of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023:

		Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
Pro-forma consolidated statement of operations		June 30,
Revenue		$	22,408			$	43,439
Net loss			(6,076	)			(14,708	)

These amounts have been calculated after applying the Company's accounting policies, adjusting Medicx Health results to reflect the additional amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to intangible assets had been applied on January 1, 2023, interest expense associated with the term loan and elimination of interest income on short-term investments that were used to fund the acquisition,

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company disposed of its non-core Access business - See Part II, Item 8. Financials Statements and Supplementary Data; Note 7 - Goodwill and Intangible Assets in our Form 10-K for additional information regarding this transaction. A pro forma statement of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, is not presented for this transaction as the pro forma impacts were not material to the Company's consolidated results.

OPTIMIZERX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, excepts share and per share data, unaudited)

Revenue presented in the pro forma financial consolidated statement of operations data above includes $1,213 and $3,080, respectively related to the Access and other non-core solutions for which no revenue was recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, (see also the discussion under Net Revenues in Results of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 in Part I, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations).

Change in Accounting Estimate

In accordance with its policy, the Company periodically reviews the stand-alone selling prices of its performance obligations under ASC 606 for use in allocating the contract prices. As a result, effective April 1, 2024, the Company updated the methodology for determining the value of program design and consulting services from the residual method to using an adjusted market assessment approach. The effect of this change in estimate was immaterial to the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, but may become material in future periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid upon the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value, the disclosure requirements around fair value establish a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs, which is expanded. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels, which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

Level 1 - Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs are based upon significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques. The Company's stock options and warrants are valued using Level 3 inputs.

The Company's carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.

NOTE 2 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07 ("ASU 2023-07"), Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires annual and interim disclosures that are expected to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The provisions of ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 ("ASU 2023-09"), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The provisions of ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.

OPTIMIZERX CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, excepts share and per share data, unaudited)

NOTE 3 - CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Cash equivalents include items almost as liquid as cash comprised of investments in AAA rated money market funds that invest in first-tier only securities, which primarily include domestic commercial paper and securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies. We account for marketable equity securities in accordance with ASC 321-10, "Investments - Equity Securities", as the shares have a readily determinable fair value quoted on the national stock exchange and are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we have recorded $8.1 million and none, respectively, of money market funds at cost.

NOTE 4 - CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

The Company capitalizes certain development costs incurred in connection with software development for internal-use software platforms used in operations and for providing services to our customers. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once software has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct, are capitalized until the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality. Capitalized internal use software development costs are included in intangible assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software platforms and are included in depreciation and amortization within operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Amortization of capitalized internal use software expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $71 and $141 and $48 and $95, respectively. The Company accumulates capitalizable costs related to current projects in a construction in process ("CIP") software account, the balance of which was $393 and $696 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

NOTE 5 - REVENUES

Under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC Topic 606"), we record revenue when earned, rather than when billed. From time to time, we may record revenue based on our revenue recognition policies in advance of being able to invoice the customer, or we may invoice the customer prior to being able to recognize the revenue. Included in accounts receivable are unbilled amounts of $4,134 and $3,288 at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Amounts billed in advance of revenue recognition are presented as deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Revenues are primarily generated from content delivery activities in which the Company delivers financial, clinical, or brand messaging through a distribution network of ePrescribers and electronic health record technology providers (channel partners), directly to consumers, or from reselling services that complement the business. This content delivery for a customer is referred to as a program. Unless otherwise specified, revenue is recognized based on the selling price to customers.The Company's contracts are generally less than one year and the primary performance obligation is delivery of messages, or content, but the contract may contain additional services. Additional services may include program design, which is the design of the content delivery program, set up, and reporting.

We consider set up and reporting services to be complimentary to the primary performance obligation and recognized through performance of the delivery of content. We consider program design and related consulting services to be performance obligations separate from the delivery of messages. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the work product is delivered to the customer. The net contract balance for contracts in progress at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $26,766 and $2,021, respectively. The outstanding performance obligations are expected to be satisfied during the year ended December 31, 2024.

In certain circumstances, the Company will offer sales rebates to customers based on spend volume. Rebates are typically contracted based on a quarterly or annual spend amount based on a volume threshold or tiered model. At the beginning of the year, the rebate percentage is estimated based on input from the sales team and analysis of prior year sales. Thereafter, the open contract balance for the customer is assessed quarterly to ensure the estimated rebate percentage being used for the rebate accrual remains reasonable. The estimated amount of variable consideration will be included in the transaction price only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. For the year ended 2023 and during the first half of 2024, there were two contracts with customers that included a rebate clause.

As the content is distributed through the platform and network of channel partners (a transaction), these transactions are recorded, and revenue is recognized over time as the distributions occur. Revenue for transactions can be realized based on a price per message, a price per redemption, as a flat fee occurring over a period of time, or upon completion of the program, depending on the client contract. The Company recognizes setup fees that are required for integrating client offerings and campaigns into the rule-based content delivery system and network over the life of the initial program, based either on time, or units delivered, depending upon which is most appropriate in the specific situation. Should a program be cancelled before completion, the balance of set up revenue is recognized at the time of cancellation, as set up fees are nonrefundable. Additionally, the Company also recognizes revenue for providing program performance reporting and maintenance. This reporting revenue is recognized over time as the messages are delivered. Program design, which is the design of the content delivery program, and related consulting services are recognized as services are performed.

In some instances, we also resell messaging solutions that are available through channel partners that are complementary to the core business and client base. These partner specific solutions are frequently similar to our own solutions and revenue recognition for these programs is the same as described above. In instances where we sell solutions on a commission basis, net revenue is recognized based on the commission-based revenue split that we receive. In instances where we resell these messaging solutions and have all financial risk and significant operation input and risk, we record the revenue based on

the gross amount sold and the amount paid to the channel partner as a cost of sales.

The Company has several signed contracts with customers for the distribution of messaging, or other services, which include payment in advance. The payments are not recorded as revenue until the revenue is earned under its revenue recognition policy. Deferred revenue was $1,053 and $172 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The contracts are all short term in nature and all revenue is expected to be recognized within 12 months, or less. The following is a summary of activity for the deferred revenue account for the six months ended June 30:

Disaggregation of Revenue

Consistent with ASC Topic 606, we have disaggregated our revenue by timing of revenue recognition. The majority of our revenue is recognized over time as solutions are provided. A small portion of our revenue related to program development, solution architect design, and other solutions is recognized at a point in time upon delivery to customers. A break down is set forth in the table below.

		Three Months Ended June 30,			Six Months Ended June 30,
		2024			2023			2024			2023
Revenue recognized over time		$	17,769			$	13,034			$	34,694			$	25,606
Revenue recognized at a point in time			1,043				784				3,809				1,215
Total Revenue		$	18,812			$	13,818			$	38,502			$	26,821

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for credit losses, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company does not seek collateral to secure its accounts receivable and amounts billed are generally due within a short period of time based on terms and conditions normal for our industry. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. If current or expected future economic trends, events, or changes in circumstances indicate that specific receivable balances may be impaired, further consideration is given to the collectability of those balances and the allowance is adjusted accordingly. Past-due receivable balances are written off when the Company's collection efforts have been exhausted.

The following is a summary of changes in the allowance for credit losses for the six months ended June 30,:

Stock Options

The compensation expense related to options for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was $2,502 and $3,122, respectively. The fair value of these instruments was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There is $5,031 of remaining expense related to unvested options to be recognized in the future over a weighted average period of 1.57 years. The total intrinsic value of outstanding options at June 30, 2024 was $214.

During 2022, the Company granted certain performance based stock options, the expense for which will be recorded over time once the achievement of the performance is deemed probable. There was $8 in expense related to these options recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

Restricted Stock Units

The Company recorded $3,424 and $4,762 in compensation expense related to restricted stock units for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. A total of $8,337 remains to be recognized at June 30, 2024 over a weighted average period of 1.52 years.

The director's compensation program calls for the grant of restricted stock units with a one year vesting period. There was $402 and $352 included in the compensation expense discussed above related to director's compensation for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE 10 - LOSS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The number of shares related to options and restricted stock units included in diluted EPS is based on the "Treasury Stock Method" prescribed in ASC 260-10, Earnings per Share. This method assumes the theoretical repurchase of shares using proceeds of the respective stock options exercised, and for restricted stock units, the amount of compensation cost attributed to future services which have not yet been recognized, and the amount of current and deferred tax benefit, if any, that would be credited to additional paid in capital upon the vesting of the restricted stock units, at a price equal to the issuer's average stock price during the related earnings period. Accordingly, the number of shares that could be included in the calculation of EPS in respect of the stock options and restricted stock units is dependent on this average stock price and will increase as the average stock price increases.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that relate to future events and expectations and, as such, constitute forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our strategies, outlook, business and financial prospects, business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are "forward-looking statements." These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words "believes," "project," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "strategy," "plan," "may," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," and similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Although OptimizeRx believes that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, these expectations may not be attained and it is possible that actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances, many of which are beyond OptimizeRx's control.

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including: our history of losses, seasonal trends in the pharmaceutical brand marketing industry; the inability to support our technology and scale our operations successfully, developing and implementing new and updated applications, features and services for our solutions may be more difficult and expensive and take longer than expected; the inability to offer high-quality customer support for our solutions; dependence on a concentrated group of customers; inability to maintain contracts with electronic prescription platforms, agreements with electronic prescription platforms and electronic health record systems being subject to audit; inability to attract and retain customers; inability to comply with laws and regulations that affect the healthcare industry; competition; developments in the healthcare industry; inability to manage growth; inability to identify suitable acquisition targets, complete acquisitions, or integrate acquisitions successfully; acquisition activities may disrupt ongoing business and may involve increased expenses; inability to realize the financial and strategic goals contemplated at the time of a transaction;inability to realize any synergies or other anticipated benefits of an acquisition or that such synergies or benefits may take longer than anticipated to be realized; risk that the integration with an acquired entity may be more costly or difficult than expected; impairment charges for goodwill or other intangible assets may be increased as we shift our focus away from our non-core businesses;inability to comply with the restrictions in our credit agreement; inability to generate sufficient cash to service debt and fund other obligations; inability to attract and retain senior management and other key employees; economic, political, regulatory and other risks arising from our international operations; inability to protect our intellectual property; cybersecurity incidents; reduction in the performance, reliability and availability of our network infrastructure; increases in costs due to inflation and other adverse economic conditions; decreases in customer demand due to macroeconomic factors; lack of a consistent active trading market for our common stock; volatility in the market price of our common stock; and the failure to remediate the identified material weakness or any other material weaknesses identified in the future.

The risks and uncertainties included here are not exhaustive. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Moreover, we operate in a rapidly changing and competitive environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors.

Further, it is not possible to assess the effect of all risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. In addition, we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after the date of this report.

Overview

We are a digital health technology company enabling care-focused engagement between life sciences organizations, healthcare providers, and patients at critical junctures throughout the patient care journey. Connecting over two million U.S. healthcare providers and millions of their patients through an intelligent omnichannel technology platform embedded within a proprietary point-of-care network, as well as mass digital communications channels, OptimizeRx helps life sciences organizations engage and support their customers.

Historically, our revenue was generated primarily through the facilitation of various types of messages to health care providers via their EHR systems and ERx platforms using the OptimizeRx proprietary network to solve the ever-increasing communication barriers between pharmaceutical representatives and healthcare providers that have presented in the rapidly changing healthcare industry. Over time, the demand for different types of communication and marketing solutions among life sciences organizations, healthcare providers, and patients led us to expand upon our initial solutions to increase the variety of health-related information we deliver, as well as the platforms, technology, media distribution channels, and audiences through and to which we deliver. In addition, the October 2023 acquisition of Medicx Health provided the Company with a significant footprint for direct-to-consumer healthcare marketing. Today, we offer diverse tech-enabled marketing solutions through our AI-generated DAAP, using sophisticated machine-learning algorithms to find the best audiences in the correct channels at the right time. Customers are able to execute traditional marketing campaigns on our proprietary digital point-of-care network, as well as dynamic marketing campaigns that optimize audiences in real time to increase the value of treatment information for healthcare professionals and patients in response to clinical care events. We employ a "land and expand" strategy focused on growing our existing client base and generating greater and more consistent revenues in part through the continued shift in our business model toward enterprise level engagements, while also broadening our omnichannel network. Our strategy for driving revenue growth is also expected to work in tandem with our efforts to increase margin and profitability as revenue drivers such as DAAP have inherently higher margins than most other messaging solutions we offer.

Customer Concentration

Because the pharmaceutical industry is dominated by large companies with multiple brands, our revenue is concentrated in a relatively small number of companies. We have approximately 100 pharmaceutical companies as customers, and our revenues are concentrated in these customers. Loss of one of more of our larger customers could have a negative impact on our operating results. Our top five customers represented approximately 44% and 39% of our revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. In each of 2023 and 2022, we had one customer that each represented more than 10% of our revenues.

Seasonality

In general, the pharmaceutical brand marketing industry experiences seasonal trends that affect the vast majority of participants in the pharmaceutical digital marketing industry. Many pharmaceutical companies allocate the largest portion of their brand marketing to the fourth quarter of the calendar year. As a result, the first quarter tends to reflect lower activity levels and lower revenue, with gradual increases in the following quarters. We generally expect these seasonality trends to continue and our ability to effectively manage our resources in anticipation of these trends may affect our operating results.

Impact of Macroeconomic Events

Unfavorable conditions in the economy may negatively affect the growth of our business and our results of operations. For example, macroeconomic events including rising inflation and high interest rates have led to economic uncertainty. In addition, high levels of employee turnover across the pharmaceutical industry as well as a fewer number of U.S. drug approvals could create additional uncertainty within our target customer markets. Historically, during periods of economic uncertainty and downturns, businesses may slow spending, which may impact our business and our customers' businesses. Adverse changes in demand could impact our business, collection of accounts receivable and our expected cash flow generation, which may adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

Key Performance Indicators

We monitor the following key performance indicators to help us evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business and make strategic decisions. We have updated the definition of "top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturers" in our key performance indicators to be based upon Fierce Pharma's most updated list of "The top 20 pharma companies by 2023 revenue". We previously used "The top 20 pharma companies by 2022 revenue". As a result of this change, prior periods have been restated for comparative purposes.

Average revenue per top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturer. Average revenue per top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturer is calculated by taking the total revenue the Company recognized through pharmaceutical manufacturers listed in Fierce Pharma's "The top 20 pharma companies by 2023 revenue" over the last twelve months, divided by the total number of the aforementioned pharmaceutical manufacturers that our solutions helped support over that time period. The Company uses this metric to monitor its progress in "landing and expanding" with key customers within its largest customer vertical and believe it also provides investors with a transparent way to chart our progress in penetrating this important customer segment. The increase in the average in twelve months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 is primarily the result of stronger DAAP related revenue streams and the Company's October 2023 acquisition of Medicx Health, which added to 2024 revenues and was not included in the 2023 amounts (in thousands).

Percent of top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturers that are customers. Percent of top 20 pharmaceutical manufacturers that are customers is calculated by taking the number of revenue generating customers that are pharmaceutical manufacturers listed in Fierce Pharma's "The top 20 pharma companies by 2023 revenue" over the last 12 months, which is then divided by 20-which is the number of pharmaceutical manufacturers included in the aforementioned list. The Company uses this metric to monitor its progress in penetrating key customers within its largest customer vertical and believes it also provides investors with a transparent way to chart our progress in penetrating this important customer segment. Our penetration within this core customer group stayed consistent from the twelve months ended June 30, 2023 to the twelve months ended June 30, 2024.

The Company uses this metric to monitor its progress in "landing and expanding" with key customers within its largest customer vertical and believes it also provides investors with a transparent way to chart our progress in penetrating this important customer segment.

Net revenue retention. Net revenue retention is a comparison of revenue generated from all customers in the previous twelve-month period to total revenue generated from the same customers in the following twelve-month period (i.e., excludes new customer relationships for the most recent twelve-month period). The Company uses this metric to monitor its ability to improve its penetration with existing customers and believes it also provides investors with a metric to chart our ability to increase our year-over-year penetration and revenue with existing customers. The retention rate in the twelve months ended June 30, 2024 was higher due to stronger DAAP related revenue and the acquisition of Medicx Health in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Revenue per average full-time employee. We define revenue per average full-time employee ("FTE"), as total revenue over the last twelve months divided by the average number of employees over the last twelve months (i.e., the average between the number of FTEs at the end of the reported period and the number of FTEs at the end of the same period of the prior year). The Company uses this metric to monitor the productivity of its workforce and its ability to scale efficiently over time and believes the metric provides investors with a way to chart our productivity and scalability. Our revenue rate per employee increased year over year due to revenue growing at a higher rate than the average number of FTEs over the last 12 month period (in thousands).

Net Revenues

Net revenue reported for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $18,812, an increase of approximately 36% over the approximately $13,818 from the same period in 2023. Our net revenue reported for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $38,502, an increase of approximately 44% over the approximately $26,821 from the same period in 2023. The increase in net revenue was as a result of the impact of the fourth quarter 2023 acquisition of Medicx Health, which was not included in the prior year numbers, plus growth of DAAP related sales, where the quarter benefited from an increase list delivery related revenue tied to new DAAP program launches. The increases in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were partially offset by a reduction of approximately $1,213 and $3,080, respectively, as a result of the disposal of our non-core Access solutions and the sale of certain non-core solutions-related contracts in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Net revenues of $22,408 and $43,439, as shown in the pro forma financial consolidated statement of operations data table in Note 1 above, includes $1,213 and $3,080 related to the Access and other non-core solutions revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $18,812 and $38,502 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, for which no Access or other non-core solutions revenue was recorded.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues, comprised primarily of revenue share expense paid to our network partners as well as costs associated with licensing data from third parties, was approximately $7,108 or 37.8% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $5,993 or 43.4% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and was approximately $14,595 or 38% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $11,563 or 43% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The changes in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was a result of solution and channel mix. Additional discussion is included in the Gross Margin section below.

Gross Margin

Our gross margin, which is the difference between our revenues and our cost of revenues, was approximately $11,704 or 62.2% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $5,993 or 56.6% of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and was approximately $14,595 or 38% of net revenues for six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $11,563 or 43% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

We had higher second quarter revenues compared to the same year ago period due to the fourth quarter acquisition of Medicx Health and growth in our DAAP related sales, leading to increased gross margin. Our overall margin percentage improved, compared with a year ago, as a result of an increased delivery of higher margin revenue solutions, such as DAAP, and using more cost-effective channel partnerships.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased to approximately $15,453 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 from approximately $12,674 for the same period in 2023, an increase of approximately 22%. For six months ended June 30, 2024 operating expenses were approximately $32,685 compared to approximately $27,137 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, a increase of 20%. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below (in thousands).

		Three Months Ended June 30,			Six Months Ended June 30,
		2024			2023			2024			2023
Stock-based compensation		$	2,903			$	3,503			$	5,926			$	7,884
Depreciation and amortization			1,073				465				2,140				929
Other general and administrative expenses			11,477				8,706				24,619				18,325
Total operating expense		$	15,453			$	12,674			$	32,685			$	27,137

Stock-based compensation decreased from approximately $3,503 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $2,903 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and decreased from approximately $7,884 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $5,926 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in both periods was a result of the lower grant date fair value of awards due to declines in the Company's stock price as well as fewer equity awards made in such periods.

Depreciation and amortization increased from approximately $465 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $1,073 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased from approximately $929 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $2,140 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in both periods was a result of the additional amortization associated with the identifiable intangibles arising from the Medicx Health acquisition.

Other general and administrative expenses increased from approximately $8,706 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to approximately $11,477 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and increased from approximately $18,325 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $24,619 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase in both periods is primarily a result of increases in compensation expense, due to additional headcount as a result of the Medicx Health acquisition therefore causing a related increase in bonus and commission expense, professional fees, primarily audit and accounting fees, insurance costs and partner integration incentives.

Other income (expense)

Interest expense was approximately $1,528 and $3,074 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and represents interest charges on our Term Loan, which was raised to partially fund the acquisition of Medicx Health in the fourth quarter of 2023, together with the amortization of the related issuance costs.

Other income was $75 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and represents a reduction in the estimated amount due as a result of a supplier related payment contingency.

Interest income decreased from approximately $721 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $106 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, and from approximately $1,386 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, to approximately $125 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was a result of lower invested balances as we realized short-term investments during 2023 in order to partially fund the acquisition of Medicx Health.

Income tax expense

Income tax benefit was approximately $1,088, or an effective rate of 21.4%, and $744, or an effective rate of 6.4%for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. For further information, see Part I, Item I. Financial Statements; Note 12 - Income Taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Loss

We had a net loss of approximately $4,008 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to a net loss of approximately $4,161 during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and approximately $10,908 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 as compared to $10,559 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The reasons and specific components associated with the change are discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our primary sources of liquidity have been cash receipts from customers and proceeds from equity offerings, in addition, during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Term loan of $40.0 million in order to partially fund the acquisition of Medicx Health. As of June 30, 2024, the total principal balance outstanding on the Term loan was approximately $37.3 million and we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants of the Term loan.

As of June 30, 2024, we had total current assets of approximately $46.0 million, compared with current liabilities of approximately $15.0 million, resulting in working capital of approximately $31.0 million and a current ratio of approximately 3.1 to 1. This represents a decrease from our working capital of approximately $36.4 million, whilst maintaining the same current ratio at 3.0 to 1 when compared to December 31, 2023. This decrease in our working capital is discussed in more detail below.

We believe that funds generated from operations, together with existing cash, will be sufficient to finance our current operations and meet our obligations under the Term loan for the next twelve (12) months. In addition, we believe we can generate the cash needed to operate beyond the next 12 months from operations. However, we may seek additional debt, equity financing, or lines of credit to supplement cash from operations to fund acquisitions or strategic partner relationships, make capital expenditures, and satisfy working capital needs.

Cash Flows

Following is a table with summary data from the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, as presented (in thousands).

		Six Months Ended June 30,
		2024			2023
Net cash provided by /(used in) operating activities		$	2,900			$	(2,455	)
Net cash provided by /(used in) investing activities			(238	)			1,674
Net cash provided by /(used in) financing activities			(1,555	)			(7,621	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents		$	1,107			$	(8,402	)

We generated approximately $2,900 from operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with $2,455 used in operating activities in the same period in 2023. We had a net loss of $10,908 for the first six months of 2024, which included non-cash expenses of $8,431. This was offset by cash generated by the collection of receivables.

Cash used by investing activities was approximately $238 for the six months ended June 30, 2024. We invested in internally developed software in the amount of $161 and spent $77 on property and equipment. Cash used in investing activities for the same period in the prior year was $1,674 as we made a net investment of $3,000 in treasury bills and invested $1,274 in internally developed software.

Cash used for financing activities was approximately $1,555, during the six months ended June 30, 2024. We used $555 to pay withholding taxes on behalf of employees vesting in restricted stock units and made repayments totaling $1,000 on our Term loan. Cash used for financing activities for the same period in prior year was $7,621, primarily related to the repurchase of 526,999 shares of our common stock for approximately $7,522. The remaining amount arose from paying withholding taxes on behalf of employees vesting in restricted stock units, partially offset by receipt of funds from the exercise of stock options.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Estimates and assumptions have been made in determining the allowance for credit losses, carrying value of assets, fair values assigned to acquired long-lived assets, depreciable and amortizable lives of tangible and intangible assets, the carrying value of liabilities, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, the timing of revenue recognition and related revenue-share expenses, and inputs used in the calculation of stock based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K). The accounting policies we used in preparing these financial statements are substantially consistent with those we applied in our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our critical accounting estimates are described in Management's Discussion and Analysis included in the 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07 ("ASU 2023-07"), Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU 2023-07 requires annual and interim disclosures that are expected to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The provisions of ASU 2023-07 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 ("ASU 2023-09"), Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. This update also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The provisions of ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has contracts with various electronic health records systems and ePrescribe platforms, whereby we agree to share a portion of the revenue we generate for eCoupons or banners through their network. From time to time, the Company enters into arrangements with a partner to acquire minimum amounts of media, data or messaging capabilities. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had commitments for future minimum payments of approximately $18.5 million that will be reflected in cost of revenues during the remainder of 2024 and years 2025 through 2028.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e), were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

To address the material weakness referenced above, the Company performed additional analysis and performed other procedures in order to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weakness

Management is actively engaged in the planning for, and implementation of, remediation efforts to address the material weakness identified above. Management intends to implement the following remediation steps:

a.	The Company will require each third-party service organization to provide a SOC-1, Type 2 report to the Company for management to review and make adjustments to the remediation plans, as necessary.

b.	If a SOC-1, Type 2 report is not available, the Company will evaluate each third-party's relevant system(s) and reporting directly through inquiry and substantive testing of such third-party's control environment.

c.

If the Company is unable to obtain a valid SOC-1 Type 2 report or perform substantive testing of such third-party service organization's control environment, the Company will implement a qualification and program triaging process, which would include modifying customer contracts, limiting the volume of activity with those third-parties and establishing other controls to ensure the completeness and accuracy of information received from those third-parties, such as performing tagging procedures where possible.

Management believes the measures described above will remediate the material weakness that we have identified. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company continued to engage with the third-party service organizations to discuss the reporting requirements. As management continues to evaluate and improve our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting, the Company may decide to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify certain of the remediation measures identified.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as noted above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act), that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. The Company conducts periodic evaluations of its internal controls to enhance, where necessary, its procedures and controls.
