GREENBROOK TMS REPORTS Second quarter operational and FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

August 5, 2021 – Toronto, Ontario – Greenbrook TMS Inc. (TSX: GTMS, NASDAQ: GBNH) (“Greenbrook” or the “Company”), today announced its second quarter 2021 (“Q2 2021”) operational and financial results. All values in this news release are in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated.

 

SECOND QUARTER 2021 OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

· Quarterly revenue increased by 40% to a record high of $13.7 million as compared to the second quarter of 2020 (“Q2 2020”) and by 21% compared to the first quarter of 2021 (“Q1 2021”). Revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 (“YTD 2021”) increased by 18% to $25.0 million, as compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 (“YTD 2020”).

 

· Quarterly treatment volumes increased by 37% to a record high of 58,219 as compared to Q2 2020 and 12% as compared to Q1 2021. New patient starts increased by 36% to a record high of 1,659 as compared to Q2 2020 and by 27% to 3,242 in YTD 2021 as compared to YTD 2020, which points to encouraging growth prospects.

 

· A return to entity-wide regional operating profitability with operating income of $0.9 million in Q2 2021 as compared to a loss of $0.2 million in Q2 2020 and a loss of $1.5 million in Q1 2021.

 

· Loss for the period and comprehensive loss decreased by 31% in Q2 2021 to $6.7 million as compared to Q2 2020, and increased by 4% to $14.6 million during YTD 2021 as compared to YTD 2020.

 

· On June 14, 2021, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of 2,353,347 common shares (“Common Shares”) at an offering price of $10.00 per Common Share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $23.5 million.

 

· Added three newly active TMS centers (“TMS Centers”) during Q2 2021, with an additional seven TMS Centers in development, bringing the total Company TMS Center network to 129 TMS Centers as at June 30, 2021. We believe our development pipeline remains robust and primed for further expansion.

 

· Based on the promising findings from the Spravato® (esketamine nasal spray) pilot program, we intend to expand offering Spravato® at an additional 8 TMS Centers, for a total of 13 TMS Centers.

 

Bill Leonard, President and Chief Executive Officer of Greenbrook commented:

 

“We are proud to announce our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date, driven by record quarterly treatment volumes. We also achieved a strong return to entity-wide regional operating profitability and we experienced a record quarterly high in new patient starts, which we anticipate will be a catalyst for future growth. We intend to continue the roll-out of the Spravato® Pilot Program, building on our long-term business strategy of utilizing our network of TMS Centers and affiliated physicians as a service delivery platform for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from Major Depressive Disorder and other mental health disorders.”

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

 

Certain information in this press release, including with respect to the Company’s future financial or operating performance and the Company’s expectations regarding the expansion of the Spravato® pilot program, constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws in Canada and the United States, including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, but not necessarily in all cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “targets”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “an opportunity exists”, “is positioned”, “estimates”, “intends”, “assumes”, “anticipates” or “does not anticipate” or “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will” or “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not historical facts but instead represent management’s expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events.

Forward-looking information is necessarily based on a number of opinions, assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the Company as of the date of this press release, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information, including but not limited to the factors described in greater detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s current annual information form and in the Company’s other materials filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, available at www.sedar.com and www.sec.gov, respectively. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect the Company; however, these factors should be considered carefully. There can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, and the Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update or alter statements containing any forward-looking information, or the factors or assumptions underlying them, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures

 

This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures including certain metrics specific to the industry in which we operate. These measures are not recognized measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered as alternatives to, loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook or other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. In addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, we use non-IFRS measures including, “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA”. These non-IFRS measures and industry metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. See the Company’s MD&A for a further discussion of these non-IFRS financial measures. Additionally, see the Company’s MD&A, along with the Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and the quarters ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, and March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, for a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook for each of the periods shown in the table below.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

 

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

 

 

 

1. Reporting entity:

 

Greenbrook TMS Inc. (the “Company”), an Ontario corporation along with its subsidiaries, controls and operates a network of outpatient mental health services centers that specialize in the provision of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (“TMS”) therapy for the treatment of depression and related psychiatric services.

 

Our head and registered office is located at 890 Yonge Street, 7th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M4W 3P4. Our United States corporate headquarters is located at 8401 Greensboro Drive, Suite 425, Tysons Corner, Virginia, USA, 22102.

 

2. Basis of preparation:

 

(a) Going concern:

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and the basis of presentation outlined in note 2(b) on the assumption that the Company is a going concern and will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has experienced losses since inception and has negative cash flow from operating activities of $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (six months ended June 30, 2020 – negative cash flow of $3.7 million). The coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”), including the related government-imposed social distancing and “shelter-in-place” measures, continues to have a negative impact on the Company’s cash flow used in operating activities. On December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a credit and security agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) for a $30 million secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Oxford Finance LLC (the “Lender”). See (note 9(a)). The Credit Facility provided a $15 million term loan that was funded at closing on December 31, 2020, with an option of drawing up to an additional $15 million in three $5 million delayed-draw term loan tranches within the 24 months following closing, subject to achieving specific financial milestones. The terms of the Credit Agreement require the Company to satisfy various affirmative and negative covenants and to meet certain financial tests. A failure to comply with these covenants, including a failure to meet the financial tests, would result in an event of default under the Credit Agreement and would allow the Lender to accelerate the debt, which could materially and adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company. On June 14, 2021, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement of common shares for aggregate gross proceeds of $23.5 million. See note 13.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

 

 

 

2. Basis of preparation (continued):

 

Although the Company believes it will become cash flow positive in the future, the timing of this will be negatively impacted until the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic subsides. The Company has historically been able to obtain financing from supportive shareholders and other sources when required. The Company will require additional financing to fund its operating and investing activities and such additional financing is required in order for the Company to repay its short-term obligations. The failure to raise such capital when required could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of current business objectives and additional financing may not be available on favorable terms or at all. These conditions indicate the existence of substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumptions were not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position classification used, and these adjustments may be material.

 

(b) Statement of compliance:

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the IASB. The disclosures contained in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the IASB (“IFRS”) for annual consolidated financial statements. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements comprise the accounts of Greenbrook TMS Inc., the parent company, and its subsidiaries. The Company accounts for its controlled subsidiaries using the consolidation method of accounting from the date that control commences and is deconsolidated from the date control ceases. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

2. Basis of preparation (continued):

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and authorized for issue by the Board on August 5, 2021.

 

(c) Basis of measurement:

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historic cost basis except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss, which are stated at their fair value. Other measurement bases are described in the applicable notes.

 

Presentation of the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position differentiates between current and non-current assets and liabilities. The condensed interim consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss is presented using the function classification of expense.

 

Regional operating income (loss) presents regional operating income (loss) on an entity-wide basis and is calculated as total service revenue less direct center and patient care costs, other regional and center support costs, and depreciation. These costs encapsulate all costs (other than incentive compensation such as share-based compensation granted to senior regional employees) associated with the center and regional management infrastructure, including the cost of the delivery of TMS treatments to patients and the cost of the Company’s regional patient acquisition strategy.

 

(d) Comparative information:

 

On January 12, 2021, the shareholders of the Company approved a special resolution for an amendment to the Company’s articles and authorized a consolidation (the “Share Consolidation”) of the common shares on the basis of a ratio that would permit the Company to qualify for a secondary listing on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). On January 12, 2021, following the shareholder approval of the Share Consolidation, the Board authorized the implementation of the Share Consolidation on the basis of one (1) post-consolidation common share for every five (5) pre-consolidation common shares. The Share Consolidation was completed on February 1, 2021 and resulted in the number of issued and outstanding common shares being reduced from approximately 67.5 million to approximately 13.5 million, on a non-diluted basis, and no fractional common shares were issued as a result of the Share Consolidation. Any fractional interest in common shares that would otherwise have resulted from the Share Consolidation were rounded up to the next whole common share, if the fractional interest was equal to or greater than one-half of a common share, and rounded down to the next whole common share if the fractional interest was less than one-half of a common share.

2. Basis of preparation (continued):

 

Effective on the date of the Share Consolidation, the exercise price and number of common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants and other outstanding convertible securities were proportionately adjusted to reflect the Share Consolidation in accordance with the terms of such securities for the holders of such instruments.

 

The Company has retrospectively presented the number of common shares, options and warrants on a post-Share Consolidation basis in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

In addition, certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation.

 

3. Significant accounting policies:

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the significant accounting policies consistent with those applied in the Company’s December 31, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements, except as noted below:

 

(a) Deferred share units:

 

The Company has a deferred share units (“DSU”) plan for its non-employee directors (the “DSU Plan”). Each tranche in an award is considered a separate award with its own grant date fair value. Grants of DSUs are recorded at fair value in corporate, general and administrative expenses. As these DSUs are cash settled, the fair value is recognized as a liability in the consolidated statements of financial position. The DSUs are subsequently remeasured at the end of each reporting period and any changes are recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of net loss and comprehensive loss until the award is settled.

 

The uncertainties around the outbreak of COVID-19 requires the use of judgements and estimates which resulted in no material impacts for the period ended June 30, 2021. The future impact of COVID-19 uncertainties could generate, in future reporting periods, a significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the following: goodwill and intangible assets, right-of-use assets, impairment, business combinations, provisions, litigation and claims.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

 

 

 

3. Significant accounting policies (continued):

 

In addition, areas involving judgements and estimation uncertainty include:

 

(a) Revenue recognition:

 

Due to the nature of the industry and complexity of the Company’s revenue arrangements, where price lists are subject to the discretion of payors, variable consideration exists that may result in price concessions and constraints to the transaction price for the services rendered.

 

In estimating this variable consideration, the Company uses significant judgement and considers various factors including, but not limited to, the following:

 

· commercial payors and the administrators of federally-funded healthcare programs exercise discretion over pricing and may establish a base fee schedule for TMS (which is subject to change prior to final settlement) or negotiate a specific reimbursement rate with an individual TMS provider;

 

· average of previous net service fees received by the applicable payor and fees received by other patients for similar services;

 

· management’s best estimate, leveraging industry knowledge and expectations of third-party payors’ fee schedules;

 

· factors that would influence the contractual rate and the related benefit coverage, such as obtaining pre-authorization of services and determining whether the procedure is medically necessary;

 

· probability of failure in obtaining timely proper provider credentialing (including re-credentialling) and documentation, in order to bill various payors which may result in enhanced price concessions; and

 

· variation in coverage for similar services among various payors and various payor benefit plans.

 

The Company updates the estimated transaction price (including updating its assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained) to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period in which such variances become known.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited)

 

 

 

3. Significant accounting policies (continued):

 

The above factors are not related to the creditworthiness of the large medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans encompassing the significant majority of the Company’s payors. The payors (large insurers and government agencies) have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As a result, the adjustment to reduce the transaction price and constrain the variable consideration is a price concession and not indicative of credit risk on the payors (i.e. not a bad debt expense).

 

(b) Accounts receivable:

 

The Company considers a default to be a change in circumstances that results in the payor no longer having the ability and intent to pay. In these circumstances, the Company will recognize a write-off against the related accounts receivable balance and a corresponding bad debt expense.

 

In estimating the collectability of its accounts receivable, the Company considers macroeconomic factors in assessing accounts receivable. Such factors would need to be significant in order to affect the ability and intent of the Company’s payors given their size and stature. As at June 30, 2021, no such factors were identified and therefore no bad debt was recognized (June 30, 2020 – nil).

 

4. Recent accounting pronouncements:

 

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that are applicable or that are expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

Payments are deferred for the first 16 months under the Loan with the first payments due August 23, 2021.

 

The effective interest rate used to measure the fair value of the Loan is 10% and the benefit of the interest rate concession is a grant which gives the Company economic benefits over the term of the Loan and is recorded as deferred grant income (see note 10). The undiscounted face value of the Loan as at June 30, 2021 is $3,080,760 (December 31, 2020 – $3,080,760). As at the inception date, the carrying value of the debt was $2,587,871.

All amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus 7.75%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 8.75%. The Credit Facility has a five-year term and amortizes over the life of the Credit Facility with 1% of the principal amount outstanding amortized over years one to four with the remaining outstanding principal repaid in installments over the fifth year. The undiscounted face value of the Credit Facility as at June 30, 2021 is $14,962,500 and the carrying amount is $13,426,886 (December 31, 2020 – $13,337,745).

(a) Share-based compensation:

 

On May 6, 2021, the stock options-based payment compensation plan was amended and restated (the “Equity Incentive Plan) to permit the Company to grant restricted share units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”). Under the plan, the Company pays equity instruments of the Company, or a cash payment equal to the fair market value thereof, as consideration in exchange for employee and similar services provided to the Company. The plan is open to employees, directors, officers and consultants of the Company and its affiliates; however, directors are not entitled to receive grants of PSUs.

 

Stock options granted under the Equity Incentive Plan are equity-settled. The fair value of the grant of the options is recognized as an expense in the condensed interim consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss. The total amount to be expensed is determined by the fair value of the options granted. The total expense is recognized over the vesting period which is the period over which all of the service vesting conditions are satisfied.

(a) Fair value:

 

The Company has Level 1 financial instruments which consists of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities which approximates their fair value given their short-term nature. The Company also has lender warrants and DSUs that are considered a Level 2 financial instrument (see note 12). The Company does not have any Level 3 financial instruments.

 

The carrying value of the non-current portion of loans payable, finance lease obligations and deferred and contingent consideration approximates their fair value given the difference between the discount rates used to recognize the liabilities in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position and the market rates of interest is insignificant.

 

Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: financial assets or financial liabilities.

 

(b) Credit risk:

 

Credit risk arises from the potential that a counterparty will fail to perform its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from patients and third-party payors including federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is mitigated in large part due to the majority of the accounts receivable balance being receivable from large, creditworthy medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans.

 

The Company’s aging schedule in respect of its accounts receivable balance as at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is provided below:

 

    June 30,     December 31,  
Days since service delivered   2021     2020  
0 - 90   $ 6,281,949     $ 5,009,224  
91 - 180     2,323,631       2,317,030  
181 - 270     1,047,471       1,746,512  
270+     1,140,013       1,635,296  
                 
Total accounts receivable   $ 10,793,064     $ 10,708,062

18. Risk management arising from financial instruments (continued):

 

Based on the Company’s industry, none of the accounts receivable in the table above are considered “past due”. Furthermore, the payors have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As such, the timing of collections is not linked to increased credit risk. The Company continues to collect on services rendered in excess of 24 months from the date such services were rendered.

 

(c) Liquidity risk:

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet its financial commitments or can only do so at excessive cost. The Company ensures there is sufficient liquidity to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations, its holdings of cash and its ability to raise capital from existing or new investors and/or lenders (see note 2(a)).

 

(d) Currency risk:

 

Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of those rates. The Company has minimal exposure to currency risk as substantially all of the Company’s revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company pays certain vendors and payroll costs in Canadian dollars from time to time, but due to the limited size and nature of these payments it does not give rise to significant currency risk.

 

(e) Interest rate risk:

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its cash and long-term debt. The Credit Facility (see note 9(a)) bears interest at a rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus 7.75%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 8.75%. A 1% increase in interest rates would result in a $634,550 increase to interest expense on the condensed interim consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss over the term of the Credit Facility.

 

19. Capital management:

 

The Company’s objective is to maintain a capital structure that supports its long-term growth strategy, maintains creditor and customer confidence, and maximizes shareholder value.

 

The capital structure of the Company consists of its shareholders’ equity (deficit), including contributed surplus and deficit, as well as loans payable.

19. Capital management (continued):

 

The Company’s primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new center start-up costs, finance acquisitions, increase non-cash working capital and capital expenditures. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure the Company will continue to have enough liquidity so it can provide its services to its customers and returns to its shareholders. The Company, as part of its annual budgeting process, evaluates its estimated annual cash requirements to fund planned expansion activities and working capital requirements of existing operations. Based on this cash budget and taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash, the Company validates whether it has the sufficient capital or needs to obtain additional capital.

 

20. Related party transactions:

 

Transactions with significant shareholder – Greybrook Health Inc.:

 

As at June 30, 2021, nil is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities for amounts payable for management services rendered and other overhead costs incurred by Greybrook Health Inc. in the ordinary course of business (December 31, 2020 – $71,286). These amounts were recorded at their exchange amount, being the amount agreed to by the parties.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $28,880 and $88,879, respectively, in corporate, general and administrative expenses (June 30, 2020 – $88,686 and $158,237, respectively) related to transactions with Greybrook Health Inc.

22. Non-controlling interest:

 

As a result of operating agreements with non-wholly owned entities, the Company has control over these entities under IFRS, as the Company has power over all significant decisions made by these entities and thus 100% of the financial results of these subsidiaries are included in the Company’s consolidated financial results.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides information concerning the financial condition and results of operations of Greenbrook TMS Inc. (the “Company”, “Greenbrook”, “us” or “we”). This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, including the related notes thereto, and our audited consolidated financial statements, including the related notes thereto, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related MD&A.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Our fiscal year is the 12-month period ending December 31. The next fiscal year will occur in the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021.

 

All references in this MD&A to “Q2 2021” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 and all references to “Q2 2020” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020. All references in this MD&A to “Q1 2021” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021. All references in this MD&A to “YTD 2021” or “year-to-date 2021” are to the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 and all references to “YTD 2020” or “year-to-date 2020” are to the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. All references in this MD&A to “Fiscal 2020” are to our fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 and all references in this MD&A to “Fiscal 2021” are to our fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.

 

On January 12, 2021, at a special meeting of shareholders, our shareholders approved a special resolution authorizing our board of directors (the “Board”) to amend our articles of incorporation (“Articles”) to effect a consolidation (the “Share Consolidation”) of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company (the “Common Shares”), such that the trading price of the Common Shares following the Share Consolidation would permit us to qualify for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). On February 1, 2021, the Board effected the Share Consolidation on the basis of one post-consolidation Common Share for every five pre-consolidation Common Shares and on February 4, 2021, the Common Shares began trading on a post-consolidation basis on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”). The Common Shares began trading on Nasdaq on March 16, 2021 under the symbol “GBNH”. Unless otherwise indicated, all Common Share numbers in this MD&A have been adjusted to give effect to the Share Consolidation.

 

Amounts stated in this MD&A are in United States dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING NON-IFRS MEASURES AND INDUSTRY METRICS

 

This MD&A makes reference to certain non-IFRS (as defined below) measures including certain metrics specific to the industry in which we operate. These measures are not recognized measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered as alternatives to, loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook or other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. In addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, we use non-IFRS measures including, “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” (each as defined below). This MD&A also refers to “Same-Region Sales Growth” (as defined below), which is an operating metric used in the industry in which we operate but may be calculated differently by other companies. These non-IFRS measures and industry metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures and industry metrics to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation.

 

3

 

 

We define such non-IFRS measures and industry metrics as follows:

 

Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) before amortization, depreciation, interest expenses, interest income and income taxes, adjusted for share-based compensation expenses, center development costs and one-time expenses. We believe our Adjusted EBITDA metric is a meaningful financial metric as it measures the ability of our current TMS Center (as defined below) operations to generate earnings while eliminating the impact of one-time expenses and share-based compensation expenses, neither of which has an impact on the operating performance of our existing TMS Center network.

 

EBITDAis defined as net income (loss) before amortization, depreciation, interest expenses, interest income and income taxes.

 

Same-Region Sales Growth” is a metric that we calculate as the percentage change in sales derived from our established management regions in a certain financial period as compared to the sales from the same management regions in the same period of the prior year. This metric reflects growth achieved through marketing and operational focus to increase volumes at existing TMS Centers as well as growth achieved through the opening of additional TMS Centers within established management regions. Our established management regions are defined as management regions containing open TMS Centers that have performed billable TMS (as defined below) services for a period of at least one full year prior to each of the comparable periods. Within a management region we focus on increasing patient volume in addition to assessing individual TMS Center locations on a standalone basis. As a result, we will from time to time establish a TMS Center that may, over the short term, negatively impact the patient volume at another TMS Center, but which is expected to add incremental patient volume to the management region as a whole in an economically beneficial manner. For more information regarding how we define our management regions, see “Business Overview”. We believe Same-Region Sales Growth is a useful metric to investors because it helps quantify our sales growth within regional management areas and the growth achieved by adding TMS Center density within established management regions. Our Same-Region Sales Growth is unique to our financial management strategy and may be calculated differently compared to other companies.

 

See “Reconciliation of Loss Attributable to the Common Shareholders of Greenbrook to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” for a reconciliation of certain of the foregoing non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS.

 

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

Some of the information contained in this MD&A, including with respect to the impact of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic (“COVID-19”) and the Company’s response thereto, the Company’s expectations regarding the expansion of the Spravato® (esketamine nasal spray) pilot program (the “Spravato® Pilot Program”), expansion opportunities, our expectations of future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities, constitutes “forward-looking information” within the meaning of applicable securities laws in Canada and the United States, including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This information is based on management’s reasonable assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to us and is current as of the date of this MD&A. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information contained in this MD&A as a result of various factors.

Particularly, information regarding our expectations of future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities or the markets in which we operate is forward-looking information. In some cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “targets”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “an opportunity exists”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “outlook”, “forecasts”, “projection”, “prospects”, “strategy”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “does not anticipate”, “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will”, “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Statements containing forward-looking information are not facts but instead represent management’s expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events or circumstances.

 

Many factors could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements or future events or developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the factors discussed in the “Risks and Uncertainties” section of this MD&A. Additional risks and uncertainties are discussed in the Company’s materials filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time, including the Company’s annual information form dated March 30, 2021 in respect of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect us; however, these factors should be considered carefully.

 

The purpose of the forward-looking information is to provide the reader with a description of management’s current expectations regarding the Company’s financial performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes; readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information contained herein. To the extent any forward-looking information in this MD&A constitutes future-oriented financial information or financial outlook, within the meaning of applicable securities laws, such information is being provided to demonstrate the potential of the Company and readers are cautioned that this information may not be appropriate for any other purpose. Future-oriented financial information and financial outlook, as with forward-looking information generally, are based on current assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Furthermore, unless otherwise stated, the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are made as of the date of this MD&A and we have no intention and undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable securities law. The forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are expressly qualified by this cautionary statement.

 

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

We are a leading provider of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (“TMS”) therapy in the United States for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (“MDD”) and other mental health disorders. Our predecessor, TMS NeuroHealth Centers Inc. (“TMS US”) was established in 2011 to take advantage of the opportunity created through the paradigm-shifting technology of TMS, an FDA-cleared, non-invasive therapy for the treatment of MDD. In 2018, our TMS Centers (as defined below) began offering treatment for obsessive compulsive disorder. Our business model takes advantage of the opportunity for a new, differentiated service channel for the delivery of TMS – a patient-focused, centers-based service model to make treatment easily accessible to all patients while maintaining a high standard of care.

 

After opening our first center in 2011 in Tysons Corner in Northern Virginia, we have grown to control and operate a network of outpatient mental health service centers that specialize in TMS treatment (each, a “TMS Center”) across the United States. We offer treatment facilities in convenient locations to provide easy access to patients and physicians. As at June 30, 2021, the Company owned and operated 129 TMS Centers in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the States of North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Delaware, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, Connecticut, Florida, Texas, Michigan, Alaska, Oregon and California. As of the date of this MD&A, the Company owns and operates 129 TMS Centers.

Our regional model seeks to develop leading positions in key regional markets, leveraging operational efficiencies by combining smaller local treatment centers that are strategically located within a single region for convenient patient and physician access, with regional management infrastructure in place to support center operations. Management regions typically cover a specific metropolitan area that meets a requisite base population threshold. The management region is typically defined by a manageable geographic area in terms of size, which facilitates the use of regional staff working across the various TMS Center locations within the management region, and which resides within a marketing capture area that allows for efficiencies in advertising cost. Management regions often have similar economic characteristics and are not necessarily defined by state lines, other geographic borders, or differentiating methods of services delivery, but rather are defined by a functional management area.

 

In Q1 2021, we implemented the Spravato® Pilot Program at select TMS Centers to treat adults with treatment-resistant depression and depressive symptoms in adults with MDD with suicidal thoughts or actions. See “Spravato® Pilot Program” below.

 

FACTORS AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE

 

We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us. These factors are also subject to a number of inherent risks and challenges, some of which are discussed below. See also the “Risks and Uncertainties” section of this MD&A.

 

Number of TMS Centers

 

We believe we have a meaningful opportunity to continue to grow the number of our TMS Centers in the United States through organic in-region growth, establishing new regions and potential future acquisitions. The opening and success of new TMS Centers is subject to numerous factors, including our ability to locate the appropriate space, finance the operations, build relationships with physicians, negotiate suitable lease terms and local payor arrangements, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.

 

Competition

 

The market for TMS is becoming increasingly competitive. We compete principally on the basis of our reputation and brand, the location of our centers, the quality of our TMS services and the reputation of our partner physicians. In the markets in which we are operating, or anticipate operating in the future, competition predominantly consists of individual psychiatrists that have a TMS device, an FDA-regulated medical device specifically manufactured to transmit the magnetic pulses required to stimulate the cortical areas in the brain to effectively treat MDD and other mental health disorders (each, a “TMS Device”), in their office and who can offer TMS therapy directly to their patients. We also face competition from a limited number of multi-location psychiatric practices or behavioral health groups that offer TMS therapy as part of their overall practice, as well as a few other specialist TMS providers.

 

We also face indirect competition from pharmaceutical and other companies that develop competitive products, such as anti-depressant medications, with certain competitive advantages such as widespread market acceptance, ease of patient use and well-established reimbursement. Our commercial opportunity could be reduced or eliminated if these competitors develop and commercialize anti-depressant medications or other treatments that are safer or more effective than TMS. At any time, these and other potential market entrants may develop treatment alternatives that may render our products uncompetitive or less competitive.

We are also subject to competition from providers of invasive neuromodulation therapies such as electroconvulsive therapy and vagus nerve stimulation.

 

Capital Management

 

Our objective is to maintain a capital structure that supports our long-term growth strategy, maintain creditor and customer confidence, and maximize shareholder value. Our primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new center start-up costs, increase non-cash working capital and capital expenditures. We may also use capital to finance potential acquisitions. See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments” below. We have experienced losses since inception and, although we completed a $23.5 million private placement in Q2 2021 (see “Key Highlights and Recent Developments—Private Placement” below), we expect that we will require additional financing to fund our operating, investing and acquisition activities and such additional financing is required in order for us to repay our short-term obligations. See the “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A.

 

Industry Trends

 

Our revenue is impacted by changes to United States healthcare laws, our clinical partners’ and contractors’ healthcare costs, the ability to secure favorable pricing structures with device manufacturers and payors’ reimbursement criteria and associated rates.

 

Technology

 

Our revenues are affected by the availability of, and reimbursement for, new TMS indications, new technology or other novel treatment modalities and our ability to incorporate the new technology into our TMS Centers.

 

Segments

 

We evaluate our business and report our results based on organizational units used by management to monitor performance and make operating decisions on the basis of one operating and reportable segment: Outpatient Mental Health Service Centers. We currently measure this reportable operating segment’s performance based on total revenues and entity-wide regional operating income.

 

COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND TRENDS AFFECTING OUR BUSINESS

 

In assessing our results of operations and trends affecting our business, we consider a variety of financial and operating measures that affect our operating results.

 

Total Revenue

 

Total revenue consists of service revenue attributable to the performance of treatments. In circumstances where the net patient fees have not yet been received, the amount of revenue recognized is estimated based on an expected value approach. Due to the nature of the industry and complexity of our revenue arrangements, where price lists are subject to the discretion of payors, variable consideration exists that may result in price concessions and constraints to the transaction price for the services rendered.

 

In estimating this variable consideration, we consider various factors including, but not limited to, the following:

 

commercial payors and the administrators of federally-funded healthcare programs exercise discretion over pricing and may establish a base fee schedule for TMS (which is subject to change prior to final settlement) or negotiate a specific reimbursement rate with an individual TMS provider;

 

7

 

 

average of previous net service fees received by the applicable payor and fees received by other patients for similar services;

 

management’s best estimate, leveraging industry knowledge and expectations of third-party payors’ fee schedules;

 

factors that would influence the contractual rate and the related benefit coverage, such as obtaining pre-authorization of services and determining whether the procedure is medically necessary;

 

probability of failure in obtaining timely proper provider credentialing (including re-credentialling) and documentation, in order to bill various payors which may result in enhanced price concessions; and

 

variation in coverage for similar services among various payors and various payor benefit plans.

 

We update the estimated transaction price (including updating our assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained) to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period in which such variances become known.

 

Third-party payors include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. Variable consideration also exists in the form of settlements with these third-party payors as a result of retroactive adjustments due to audits and reviews. We apply constraint to the transaction price, such that net revenues are recorded only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in the future.

 

Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs

 

Regional operating income presents regional operating income on an entity-wide basis and is calculated as total revenue less direct center and regional costs. Direct center and regional costs consist of direct center and patient care costs, regional employee compensation, regional marketing expenses, and depreciation. These costs encapsulate all costs (other than incentive compensation such as share-based compensation granted to senior regional employees) associated with the center and regional management infrastructure, including the cost of the delivery of treatments to patients and the cost of our regional patient acquisition strategy. Beginning in Q1 2020, the Company has excluded amortization from entity-wide regional operating income (loss) based on the nature of the expense as it is not associated with center and regional infrastructure. We have retrospectively updated our annual and quarterly financial information below to reflect this change (See “Results of Operations” and “Quarterly Financial Information” below).

 

Center Development Costs, Capital Expenditure and Working Capital Investment

 

Center development costs represent direct expenses associated with developing new TMS Centers, including small furnishings and fittings, wiring and electrical and, in some cases, the cost of minor space alterations. However, the main cash requirement for center development relates to working capital investment. This includes rental deposits or other non-capital costs required to open TMS Centers and the cost of treatment delivery while collections initially lag until payor contracting, credentialing and enrollment processes are completed.

 

8

 

 

Corporate Employee Compensation

 

Corporate employee compensation represents compensation incurred to manage the centralized business infrastructure of the Company, including annual base salary, annual cash bonuses and other non-equity incentives.

 

Corporate Marketing Expenses

 

Corporate marketing expenses represent costs incurred that impact the Company on an overall basis including investments in website functionality and brand management activities.

 

Other Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Other corporate, general and administrative expenses represent expenses related to the corporate infrastructure required to support our ongoing business including insurance costs, professional and legal costs and costs incurred related to our corporate offices.

 

Earn-Out Consideration

 

A portion of the purchase price payable in respect of acquisition of Achieve TMS Centers, LLC and Achieve TMS Alaska, LLC (collectively, “Achieve TMS”) in September 2019 (the “Achieve TMS Acquisition”) was subject to an earn-out based on the earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization achieved by Achieve TMS during the twelve-month period following the September 26, 2019 closing date of the Achieve TMS Acquisition (the “Earn-Out”). The Earn-Out was confirmed to be $10,319,429, of which $3,095,799 was settled through the issuance of an aggregate of 231,011 Common Shares to the vendors on March 26, 2021. Of the remaining $7,223,630 of Earn-Out consideration payable, $2,780,590 was paid in cash on March 26, 2021. Certain vendors agreed to defer $4,443,040 of the cash Earn-Out consideration due to them until June 30, 2021 in exchange for additional cash consideration in the aggregate amount of $300,000, which payment was made in full concurrently with the deferred cash payment on June 28, 2021.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

Share-based compensation represents stock options granted as consideration in exchange for employee and similar services to align personnel performance with the Company’s long-term goals.

 

Amortization

 

Amortization relates to the reduction in useful life of the Company’s intangible assets that were realized as part of the Achieve TMS Acquisition.

 

Interest

 

Interest expense relates to interest incurred on loans and lease liabilities. Interest income relates to income realized as a result of investing excess funds into investment accounts.

 

Adjusted EBITDA

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure that deducts share-based compensation expenses and expenses that represent one-time costs incurred for purposes of enhancing the performance of the business and to achieve our TMS Center growth. This measure is not a recognized financial measure under IFRS, does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures and Industry Metrics.” One-time costs include the recognition of a deferred payment cost with respect to the Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition and costs related to the listing of our Common Shares on the Nasdaq (the “Nasdaq listing”). On June 25, 2021, the Company elected to withdraw its previously announced public offering of Common Shares in light of market conditions (the “Withdrawn Public Offering”). Due to their nature, professional and legal fees associated with the Withdrawn Public Offering and the Private Placement (defined below) (collectively, the “Equity Financing”) are also considered one-time costs and, accordingly, have been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPARABILITY OF OUR RESULTS

 

COVID-19

 

During Fiscal 2020, we took the below measures to control costs as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic:

 

· approximately 20% of the Company’s employees were furloughed as of May 1, 2020. During the period of furlough, Greenbrook paid 100% of employer and employee medical premiums;

 

· a Company-wide hiring freeze was implemented;

 

· each member of the Company’s executive management team agreed to a 10% salary deferral; and

 

· budgeted discretionary expenses were reduced by approximately $2.0 million for Fiscal 2020.

 

In Fiscal 2021, the Company has reverted to normalized spending conditions.

 

See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments – COVID-19 Business Impact” and “Risks and Uncertainties” below.

 

Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate

 

In an effort to strengthen our billing relationship and rate negotiation position with payors, as well as optimize billing processes, including credentialling as we continue to scale our business, we decided to improve our collection practices by consolidating our billing structure to begin remitting claims on a state-wide basis in Fiscal 2020. This process included multiple re-credentialling processes across our payor population. This has caused a temporary disruption in collections as further described below in “Analysis of Results for Q2 2021 and YTD 2021 – Total Revenue”.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted payor processes through a lack of timely and accurate communication resulting in a greater chance of price concession. As a result, the following factors involved in estimating variable consideration further constrained the transaction price for services rendered:

 

management’s best estimate, leveraging industry knowledge and expectations of third-party payors’ fee schedules;

 

probability of failure in obtaining timely and accurate benefits information;

 

probability of failure in obtaining timely and accurate pre-authorization of services; and

 

probability of failure in obtaining timely proper provider credentialing (including re-credentialling) and documentation, in order to bill various payors.

 

During the initial onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we expected a temporary impact to the payor processes, as described above, including the impact of our billing enhancements. However, when operations began to normalize in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020 (“Q4 2020”), management determined that additional price concessions were necessary based on the continued nature of the impact to payor processes at that time. These additional price concessions have persisted, but are expected to decline as a percentage of revenue during Fiscal 2021. See “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”.

 

Regional Development Activity

 

Our regional model seeks to develop leading positions in key markets, and to leverage operational efficiencies by combining smaller local treatment centers within a region under a single shared regional management infrastructure. Part of our core strategy is to continue to develop new TMS Centers within our existing regions as well as in new management regions, in each case, organically or through acquisitions of existing centers or businesses, which may affect comparability of results.

 

10

 

 

Seasonality

 

Typically, we experience seasonal factors in the first quarter of each fiscal year that result in reduced revenues in those quarters as compared to the other three quarters of the year. These seasonal factors include cold weather and the reset of deductibles during the first part of the year.

 

KEY HIGHLIGHTS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

During Q2 2021, we achieved strong growth in revenue, regional operating income and treatment volumes, achieving our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date and a strong return to entity-wide regional operating profitability. As the COVID-19 pandemic continued to create a challenging operating environment, especially early in the quarter, we displayed our ability to adapt our business to current conditions while continuing to deliver the highest quality of care at all of our TMS Centers. Quarterly revenue increased by 40% to a record of $13.7 million as compared to Q2 2020 and by 21% as compared to Q1 2021. YTD 2021 revenue increased by 18% to $25.0 million, as compared to YTD 2020.

 

We also experienced a record quarterly high in new patient starts, which we anticipate will be a catalyst for accelerated future growth (see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” above). The continued roll-out of our Spravato® Pilot Program further builds on our long-term business plan of utilizing our TMS Centers as platforms for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders.

 

We added one new active TMS Centers during the quarter, while an additional seven TMS Centers remain in development. As at June 30, 2021, our current total TMS Center network is comprised of 129 TMS Centers. As of the date of this MD&A, our total TMS network is comprised of 129 TMS Centers.

 

We believe our development pipeline remains robust and primed for further expansion (see “Risk Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information”).

 

Spravato® Pilot Program

 

During Q2 2021, we continued the Spravato® Pilot Program at select TMS Centers to treat adults with treatment-resistant depression and depressive symptoms in adults with MDD with suicidal thoughts or actions. Based on the promising findings to date, we expect to expand our offering of Spravato® to an additional 8 TMS Centers, bringing our total to 13 TMS Centers offering Spravato®. We will also explore opportunities to: (i) utilize the “buy and bill” billing method where possible from a regulatory perspective; and (ii) explore offering Spravato® using mid-level practitioners such as nurse practitioners or physician assistants.

 

Participation in BrainsWay Smoking Cessation Trial

 

On April 29, 2021, our Richmond Heights, Missouri TMS Center was named as one of the participating centers in BrainsWay Ltd.’s (“BrainsWay”) roll-out of its smoking cessation TMS therapy. BrainsWay recently received FDA clearance for the use of their H4-coil TMS Device in aiding short-term smoking cessation.

 

Private Placement

 

On June 14, 2021, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) of Common Shares in reliance upon Rule 506(c) under the U.S. Securities Act. Pursuant to the Private Placement, an aggregate of 2,353,347 Common Shares were issued at a price of $10.00 per Common Share, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $23,533,470. The financing was led by new investor Masters Special Situations, LLC and affiliates thereof (“MSS”). Additional new investors, including BioStar Capital, Steward Capital Holdings, LP and Avenaero Holdings, LLC, also participated in the financing, along with existing investors, Greybrook Health Inc. and 1315 Capital II, L.P. (“1315 Capital”). The Company is using the net proceeds from the Private Placement to develop new TMS Centers as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

11

 

 

In connection with the Private Placement, MSS, Greybrook Health Inc. and 1315 Capital (collectively, the “Investors”) each received the right to appoint a nominee to the board of directors of the Company as well as rights to participate in future equity issuances by the Company to maintain such investors’ pro rata ownership interest in the Company for so long as the applicable Investor (together with its affiliates) owns, controls or directs, directly or indirectly, at least 5% of the outstanding Common Shares (on a partially-diluted basis). In addition, each of the subscribers in the Private Placement received customary resale, demand and “piggy-back” registration rights.

Analysis of Results for Q2 2021 and YTD 2021

 

The following section provides an overview of our financial performance during Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020 and during YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020.

 

13

 

 

Total Revenue

 

Consolidated revenue increased to a record high of $13.7 million in Q2 2021, a 40% increase compared to Q2 2020 (Q2 2020: $9.8 million), and $25.0 million in YTD 2021, an 18% increase compared to YTD 2020 (YTD 2020: $ 21.2 million). This increase is due to record quarterly treatments performed in Q2 2021 as a result of record patient starts as market conditions continue to normalize after the initial onset of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as an increase in reimbursement rates from certain payors with which we have had long-standing relationships in our established regions.

 

New patient starts increased to 1,659 in Q2 2021, a 36% increase compared to Q2 2020 (Q2 2020: 1,218), and increased to 3,242 in YTD 2021, a 27% increase compared to YTD 2020 (YTD 2020: 2,544). Treatment volumes were 58,219, a 37% increase compared to Q2 2020 (Q2 2020: 42,581), and were 110,345 in YTD 2021, a 22% increase compared to YTD 2020 (YTD 2020: 90,551). Consultations were 3,533 in Q2 2021, a 70% increase compared to Q2 2020 (Q2 2020: 2,075), and were 7,124 in YTD 2021, a 61% increase compared to YTD 2020 (YTD 2020: 4,435). The continued strong performance of these key operating metrics demonstrates sound business fundamentals and positive forward momentum, positioning us well for continued future growth as operating conditions normalize. We also believe that the COVID-19 pandemic has increased demand for mental health services (including TMS therapy), which we believe will promote continued growth (see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” above).

 

Same-Region Sales Growth was 38% in Q2 2021 and 16% in YTD 2021 as compared to -19% in Q2 2020 and 2% in YTD 2020. The increase was primarily due to increased revenue as market conditions continue to normalize after the initial onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures and Industry Metrics” above).

 

Average revenue per treatment increased by 2% to $235 in Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020 (Q2 2020: $230) and decreased by 3% to $227 in YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020 (YTD 2020: $234). This was primarily attributable to the adjustment to variable consideration estimate (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”) offset by an increase in reimbursement rates from certain payors with which we have had long-standing relationships in our established regions.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable decreased by $0.1 million to $10.8 million as at the end of Q2 2021 (end of Q2 2020: $10.9 million) and increased by $0.1 million as compared to the end of Fiscal 2020 (end of Fiscal 2020: $10.7 million). This is despite strong quarter-over-quarter revenue growth.

 

In an effort to strengthen our billing relationship and rate negotiation position with payors, as well as optimize billing processes, including credentialling, we decided to improve our collection practices by consolidating our billing structure to begin remitting claims on a state-wide basis in Fiscal 2020. This process included multiple re-credentialling processes across our payor population. The impact of COVID-19 on payor processes including the billing enhancements noted above, through a lack of timely and accurate communication, resulted in additional price concessions and an adjustment to variable consideration estimate that persisted into Q2 2021 (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustments to Variable Consideration Estimate” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”).

 

As a result of our new billing structure coupled with the transition to a scalable billing and reimbursement platform in Fiscal 2019, we set a quarterly record in cash collections in Q2 2021. We believe the changes to our billing processes will allow us to continue to significantly improve our billing and collection capabilities in the future. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” above.

 

We also continue to collect on services rendered in excess of 24 months from the date such services were rendered.

Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs

 

Direct center and regional costs increased by 28% to $12.8 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $10.0 million) and by 24% to $25.6 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $20.7 million). This increase is primarily due to an increase in treatments, operating 122 active TMS Centers as at June 30, 2021 as compared to 113 active TMS Centers as at June 30, 2020.

 

Q2 2021 marked a return to entity-wide regional operating profitability, achieving entity-wide regional operating income of $0.9 million in Q2 2021 as compared to an entity-wide regional operating loss of $0.2 million in Q2 2020. This was predominately attributable to the consolidated revenue growth rate of 40% in Q2 2021 eclipsing the direct center and regional cost growth rate of 28% over the same period.

 

YTD 2021 resulted in an entity-wide regional operating loss of $0.6 million as compared to entity-wide regional operating income of $0.5 million in YTD 2020. The entity-wide regional operating loss in YTD 2021 is primarily attributable to an adjustment to variable consideration estimate due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on payor processes (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”) and increased marketing spend, to lessen the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating metrics and increase momentum as market conditions began to normalize. The inclusion of nine newly active TMS Centers as compared to Q2 2020 and seven TMS Centers in development during Q2 2021, which will take time to generate positive regional operating income, also contributed to the loss position. The entity-wide regional operating income margin was 6.7% in Q2 2021 as compared to -2.3% in Q2 2020. The regional operating income margin was -2.3% in YTD 2021 as compared to 2.4% in YTD 2020.

 

Center Development Costs, Capital Expenditures and Working Capital Investment

 

Center development costs increased by 30% to $0.2 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.1 million) and by 25% to $0.5 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $0.4 million) predominantly as a result of the resumption in development activity in Q2 2021 after a curtailment of spend in Q2 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVID-19”). Average cash investment to establish new TMS Centers, including center development costs, capital expenditures and working capital investment, remained consistent at $0.16 million in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021 (Q2 2020 and YTD 2020: $0.16 million).

 

Corporate Employee Compensation

 

Corporate employee compensation incurred to manage the centralized business infrastructure of the Company increased by 53% to $3.7 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $2.4 million) and increased by 31% to $6.6 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $5.0 million). Corporate employee compensation in Q2 2020 and YTD 2020 was comparatively low due to measures put in place to control costs during the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVID-19”). As a result, the normalization of this spending in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021, coupled with the increase in corporate employee compensation due to key investment in our human resources, billing, operations and compliance capabilities, contributed to the increase in corporate employee compensation.

 

Corporate Marketing Expenses

 

Corporate marketing expenses decreased by 39% to $0.2 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.3 million) and by 43% to $0.3 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $0.6 million). The decrease was primarily a result of the timing of discretionary spending.

 

Other Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Other corporate, general and administrative expenses increased by 351% to $2.0 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.4 million). Other corporate, general and administrative expenses in Q2 2020 were comparatively low due to measures put in place to control costs during the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVID-19”). The normalization of this spending in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021, coupled with the one-time professional and legal fees related to the Nasdaq listing and Equity Financing (see “Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses” below), was primarily attributable for the increase in other corporate, general and administrative expenses.

 

15

 

 

Other corporate, general and administrative expenses increased by 163% to $3.6 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $1.4 million). Other corporate, general and administrative expenses in YTD 2020 were comparatively low due to measures put in place to control costs during the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVID-19”). The normalization of this spending in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021, coupled with the one-time deferred payment costs with respect to the Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition and one-time professional and legal fees related to the Nasdaq listing and Equity Financing (see “Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses” below), was primarily attributable to the increase in other corporate, general and administrative expenses.

 

Earn-Out Consideration

 

The Earn-Out consideration decreased by $5.3 million to nil in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021 (Q2 2020 and YTD 2020: $5.3 million). The decrease is a result of the Earn-Out amount confirmed during Q1 2021 and paid during YTD 2021. See “Components of Our Results of Our Operations and Trends Affecting our Business” – Earn-Out Consideration”.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

Share-based compensation increased by 16% to $0.2 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.2 million) and increased by 44% to $0.4 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $0.3 million), predominantly due to the timing and fair value of stock options granted to key personnel to ensure retention and long-term alignment with the goals of the Company.

 

Amortization

 

Amortization remained consistent at $0.1 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.1 million) and remained consistent at $0.2 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $0.2 million). The amortization was a result of the intangible assets acquired by the Company in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition.

 

Interest

 

Interest expense increased by 92% to $1.3 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.7 million) and by 75% to $2.4 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $1.4 million). The increase in interest expense is primarily due to the addition of new lease liabilities in connection with the execution of our regional growth strategy and the credit and security agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) entered into on December 31, 2020 for a secured $30 million credit facility (“Credit Facility”) with Oxford Finance LLC (the “Lender”). See “Indebtedness”.

 

Interest income decreased by 99% during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $0.001 million) and by 77% during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $0.01 million) as a result of a decrease in the amount of excess funds invested.

 

Loss for the Period and Comprehensive Loss and Loss for the Period Attributable to the Common Shareholders of Greenbrook

 

The loss for the period and comprehensive loss decreased by 31% to $6.7 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $9.7 million) predominately due to the record quarterly revenue achieved in Q2 2021 offset by the recognition of one-time professional and legal fees related to the Nasdaq listing and Equity Financing (see “Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses” below). In Q2 2020, we recognized Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition that did not occur in Q2 2021.

 

16

 

 

The loss for the period and comprehensive loss increased by 4% to $14.6 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $14.0 million). This was predominantly due to an adjustment to variable consideration estimate due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on payor processes (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate”, “Total Revenue” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”) and increased marketing spend, to lessen the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating metrics and increase momentum as market conditions started to normalize. In addition, we recognized one-time deferred payment costs with respect to the Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition and one-time professional and legal fees related to the Nasdaq listing and Equity Financing (see “Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses” below). In YTD 2020, we recognized Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition that did not occur in YTD 2021. The inclusion of nine newly active TMS Centers and seven TMS Centers in development (which will take time to generate positive entity-wide regional operating income as described above) also contributed to the loss position (see “Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs”, and “Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures and Industry Metrics” above).

 

The loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook decreased by 29% to $6.8 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $9.5 million). The loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook increased by 6% to $14.4 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $13.6 million). This was predominantly due to the factors described above impacting net losses.

 

Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses

 

The Adjusted EBITDA loss position increased by 62% to $2.7 million during Q2 2021 (Q2 2020: $1.7 million) and by 103% to $6.7 million during YTD 2021 (YTD 2020: $3.3 million) predominately due to an adjustment to variable consideration estimate due to the continued impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on payor processes (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results –Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate”, “Total Revenue” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”) and increased marketing spend, to lessen the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating metrics and increase momentum as market conditions started to normalize.

 

In YTD 2020, aggregate corporate costs (including corporate employee compensation, corporate marketing expenses and other corporate, general and administrative expenses) and regional costs were comparatively low due to measures put in place to control costs during the COVID-19 pandemic (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVD-19”). The normalization of this spending in Q2 2021 and YTD 2021, in addition to the inclusion of nine newly-active TMS Centers and seven TMS Centers in development (which will take time to generate positive entity-wide regional operating income as described above), also contributed to the loss position. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Non-IFRS Measures and Industry Metrics”. Also refer to “Corporate Employee Compensation”, “Other Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses”, “Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs” in this MD&A.

 

Due to their nature, the deferred payment costs with respect to the Earn-Out consideration in connection with the Achieve TMS Acquisition was a one-time expense incurred during YTD 2021 and was therefore excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. One-time professional and legal fees incurred in connection with the Nasdaq listing and the Equity Financing have also been excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.

Notes:

 

(1) Active TMS Centers represent TMS Centers that have performed billable TMS services during the applicable period.

 

(2) TMS Centers-in-development represents TMS Centers that have committed to a space lease agreement and the development process is substantially complete.

 

(3) Shared-services / corporate personnel is disclosed on a full-time equivalent basis. The Company utilizes part-time staff and consultants as a means of managing costs.

 

(4) Represents physician partners that are involved in the provision of TMS therapy services from our TMS Centers.

 

(5) Figures calculated for the applicable period ended.

 

New patient starts were 1,659 in Q2 2021, representing a 5% quarter-over-quarter increase compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: 1,583). Treatment volumes were 58,219 in Q2 2021, representing a 12% quarter-over-quarter increase compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: 52,126). Consultations were 3,533 in Q2 2021, remaining relatively flat compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: 3,591).

 

We achieved our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date of $13.7 million in Q2 2021, representing a 21% quarter-over-quarter increase compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: $11.3 million). Average revenue per treatment was $235 in Q2 2021, representing an 8% quarter-over-quarter increase compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: $217). This was primarily attributable to record quarterly treatments performed in Q2 2021, an increase in reimbursement rates from certain payors with which we have had long-standing relationships in our established regions and a reduction in the adjustment to variable consideration estimate as a percentage of revenue recognized based on expected value during Q2 2021 compared to Q1 2021. See “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”.

 

18

 

 

We experienced entity-wide regional operating income of $0.9 million in Q2 2021 as compared to an entity-wide regional operating loss of $1.5 million in Q1 2021, primarily as a result of our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date in Q2 2021.

 

The loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook was $6.8 million in Q2 2021, representing a 11% quarter-over-quarter decrease compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: $7.6 million). The decrease in the loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook was predominately due to achieving our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date, partially offset by an increase in one-time expenses in Q2 2021 as compared to Q1 2021. See “Analysis of Results for Q2 2021 and YTD 2021 – Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses” above.

 

The Adjusted EBITDA loss position decreased to $2.7 million in Q2 2021, representing a 33% quarter-over-quarter decrease compared to Q1 2021 (Q1 2021: $4.0 million). This was primarily attributable to our highest quarterly consolidated revenue results to date, an increase in reimbursement rates from certain payors with which we have had long-standing relationships in our established regions and a reduction in the adjustment to variable consideration estimate as a percentage of revenue recognized based on expected value during Q2 2021 compared to Q1 2021. See “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – Adjustment to Variable Consideration Estimate” and “Reconciliation of Accounts Receivable”.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Overview

 

The Company’s primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new TMS Center development costs, increase non-cash working capital and fund investments in its centralized business infrastructure. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure that the Company will continue to have enough liquidity to provide services to its customers and provide returns to its shareholders. We may also use capital to finance potential acquisitions. See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments” above.

 

The Company, as part of its annual budgeting process, evaluates its estimated annual cash requirements to fund planned expansion activities and working capital requirements of existing operations. Based on this budget and considering its anticipated cash flows from regional operations and its holdings of cash, the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to meet its future operating expenses, capital expenditures and future debt service requirements for approximately the next 12 to 14 months as of the date of this MD&A. However, our ability to fund operating expenses, capital expenditures and future debt service requirements will depend on, among other things, our ability to source external funding, our future operating performance, which will be affected by the velocity of our regional development strategy and general economic, financial and other factors, including factors beyond our control such as the COVID-19 pandemic. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information”, “Risks and Uncertainties” and “Factors Affecting our Performance” in this MD&A.

 

On June 14, 2021, the Company completed the Private Placement for aggregate gross proceeds of $23,533,470. The Company is using the net proceeds from the Private Placement to develop new TMS Centers as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments – Private Placement”.

Analysis of Cash Flows for YTD 2021

 

The following table presents our cash flows for each of the periods presented:

 

(US$)   YTD 2021     YTD 2020  
Net cash used in operating activities     (9,452,991 )     (3,674,550 )
Net cash generate from (used in) financing activities     17,909,659       9,545,619  
Net cash used in investing activities     (8,282,526 )     (224,402 )
Increase in cash     174,142       5,646,667  

 

Cash Flows used in Operating Activities

 

For YTD 2021, cash flows used in operating activities (which includes the full cost of developing new TMS Centers) totaled $9.5 million, as compared to $3.7 million in YTD 2020. The increase in cash flows used in operating activities is primarily attributable to increased losses (excluding the Earn-Out consideration with respect to the Achieve TMS Acquisition) during the period (see “Loss for the Period and Comprehensive Loss and Loss for the Period Attributable to the Common Shareholders of Greenbrook” above), as well as the normalization of spending in YTD 2021 subsequent to the measures put in place to control costs during the COVID-19 pandemic in YTD 2020 (see “Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results – COVID-19”). Of the net cash used in operating activities during YTD 2021, $6.2 million related to Q1 2021 and $3.2 million related to Q2 2021.

 

Cash Flows generated from (used in) Financing Activities

 

For YTD 2021, cash flows generated from financing activities amounted to $17.9 million as compared to $9.5 million in YTD 2020. This change is largely driven by the difference in the net proceeds received by the Company in connection with the Private Placement in Q2 2021 as compared to the net proceeds received by the Company in connection with its public offering of Common Shares completed in Q2 2020 for net proceeds of approximately $10.2 million and the PPP Loan (defined below). This was partially offset by an increase in distributions to non-controlling interests during YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020 and interest payments made in connection with the Credit Facility.

 

Cash Flows used in Investing Activities

 

For YTD 2021, cash flows used in investing activities totaled $8.3 million as compared to $0.2 million in YTD 2020, which primarily relates to the release of the deferred consideration held in an escrow account upon satisfying all escrow conditions and the Earn-Out consideration in relation to the Achieve TMS Acquisition. See “Components of our Results of our Operations and Trends Affecting our Business” – Earn-Out Consideration”.

 

INDEBTEDNESS

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company assumed loans from four separate banking institutions that were previously extended for the purchase of TMS Devices to non-controlling interest holder partners. The device loans were assumed as part of partnerships with local physicians, behavioral health groups or other investors, which own minority interests in certain TMS Center subsidiaries. These device loans bear an average interest rate of 10% with average monthly blended interest and capital payments of $1,575 and mature or matured, as applicable, during the years ended December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2023. There are no significant financial covenants associated with these loans. The loans related to one of the banking institutions were repaid during Fiscal 2019.

During Fiscal 2019, the Company assumed loans from two separate banking institutions that were previously extended for the purchase of TMS Devices to non-controlling interest holder partners. The device loans were assumed as part of partnerships with local physicians, behavioral health groups or other investors, which own minority interests in certain TMS Center subsidiaries. These device loans bear an average interest rate of 13% with average monthly blended interest and capital payments of $1,756 and mature during the year ending December 31, 2021. There are no significant financial covenants associated with these loans.

 

During Fiscal 2020, the Company was released from its obligations pertaining to one of the bank loans assumed during Fiscal 2019 in the amount of $45,680 as a result of the disposal of the related TMS Device.

 

During YTD 2021, the Company repaid TMS Device loans totalling $0.03 million (YTD 2020: $0.05 million).

 

On April 21, 2020, Greenbrook entered into a promissory note with the U.S. Bank National Association (the “PPP Lender”), evidencing an unsecured loan in the amount of $3,080,760 (the “PPP Loan”) made to the Company under the United States Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”). The PPP is a program organized by the U.S. Small Business Administration established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per annum with a maturity date of two years from the date of the Loan. Payments are deferred for the first 16 months under the PPP Loan, and the PPP Loan may be forgiven, in whole or in part, subject to various factors including that the proceeds from the PPP Loan are used by Greenbrook to cover payroll costs, rent and utilities.

 

The Company has applied for forgiveness of the PPP Loan it received under the PPP, though there can be no assurances at this time that the PPP Loan will be forgiven, whether in part or in whole.

 

On December 31, 2020, we entered into the Credit Agreement for our $30 million Credit Facility with the Lender. The Credit Facility provided a $15 million term loan that was funded at closing on December 31, 2020, with an option of drawing up to an additional $15 million in three $5 million delayed-draw term loan tranches within the 24 months following closing, subject to achieving specific financial milestones relating to the achievement of certain tiered EBITDA and revenue targets; debt-to-EBITDA ratio and debt-to-enterprise value ratio targets; and minimum unrestricted cash and daily average unrestricted cash requirements. As of the date of this MD&A, the Company does not currently meet these financial milestones and is, therefore, unable to draw down on any of the delayed-draw term loan tranches under the Credit Facility at this time. All amounts borrowed under the Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus 7.75%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 8.75%. The Credit Facility has a five-year term and amortizes over the life of the Credit Facility with 1% of the principal amount outstanding amortized over years one to four with the remaining outstanding principal repaid in installments over the fifth year. The Company has granted general security over all assets of the Company in connection with the performance and prompt payment of all obligations of the Credit Facility.

 

The terms of the Credit Agreement require us to satisfy various affirmative and negative covenants and to meet certain financial tests, including but not limited to, consolidated minimum revenue and minimum qualified cash, each of which became effective on March 31, 2021. These covenants limit, among other things, our ability to incur additional indebtedness outside of what is permitted under the Credit Agreement, create certain liens on assets, declare dividends and engage in certain types of transactions. As of the end of Q2 2021, we were in compliance with such covenants. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, including payment and covenant breaches, bankruptcy events and the occurrence of a change of control.

 

22

 

 

As consideration for providing the Credit Facility, we issued 51,307 common share purchase warrants (the “Lender Warrants”), each exercisable for one Common Share at an exercise price of C$11.20 per Common Share, to the Lender. The Lender Warrants will expire on December 31, 2025.

 

On March 30, 2021, the Company and TMS US received a waiver from the Lender with respect to their obligation under the Credit Agreement to deliver annual audited financial statements with respect to Fiscal 2020 that do not contain any “going concern” or similar qualification or exception. As consideration for the waiver granted by the Lender, the Company, TMS US and each of the other parties to the Credit Agreement covenanted that the Company would complete an equity and/or subordinated debt offering for proceeds of at least $12 million, which was satisfied through the completion of the Private Placement on June 14, 2021.

The Company transacts with key individuals from management who have authority and responsibility to plan, direct, and control the activities of the Company. Key management personnel are defined as the executive officers of the Company, including the President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Marketing Officer and the Chief Medical Officer.

 

On April 20, 2021, the Interim Chief Financial Officer stepped down from his role which he held since November 2020. During Q2 2021, he fully transitioned all responsibilities to the CFO, who has returned from his leave of absence.

 

Transactions with significant shareholder – Greybrook Health Inc.

 

As at June 30, 2021, nil was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities related to payables for management services and other overhead costs rendered by Greybrook Health Inc. (“Greybrook Health”) to the Company in the ordinary course of business under the MSA (as defined below) (June 30, 2020: $0.03 million).

 

23

 

 

On January 1, 2015, we entered into a management and consulting services agreement (the “MSA”) with our significant shareholder, Greybrook Health, pursuant to which Greybrook Health provided us and our subsidiaries with certain incidental services, including financial advisory services, business development advisory services and business and operating consulting services (collectively, the “Services”). More specifically, these Services included: (i) the provision of office space for our head office in Toronto, Ontario, and (ii) compensation for our CFO, COO and twelve other employees consisting of our general counsel, ten full-time employees and one part-time employee that, together, provided customary administrative, finance and accounting services to us and one part-time employee that provided customary IT infrastructure services to us. All of the Services provided by Greybrook Health were provided on a cost basis whereby we reimbursed Greybrook Health for costs incurred in connection with the provision of such Services. There was no mark-up charged by Greybrook Health for the provision of the Services. The aggregate amount paid by us to Greybrook Health under the MSA for each of YTD 2021 and YTD 2020 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The MSA was terminated effective February 1, 2021.

 

Subsequent to September 30, 2019, compensation for all employees noted above, except for the Chief Operating Officer and the part time contractor that provides customary IT infrastructure services to us, is no longer being provided by Greybrook Health and is being paid directly by us. Following the termination of the MSA on February 1, 2021, the compensation for the COO and the part time contractor that provides customary IT infrastructure services to the Company is being paid directly by the Company. Following termination of the MSA, we entered into a license agreement with Greybrook Capital Inc. for the provision of office space for our head office in Toronto, Ontario, effective as of February 1, 2021. Under the license, we are required to pay approximately C$10,000 per month. The initial term of the agreement expires on December 31, 2021, subject to the mutual agreement of the parties to extend the term. The license may be terminated by either party with 90 days’ written notice to the other party.

 

On June 14, 2021, Greybrook Health Inc. purchased 200,000 Common Shares from the Company at a subscription price of $10.00 per Common Share in connection with the Private Placement, for aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $2,000,000. In connection with the Private Placement, the Company also granted Greybrook Health Inc. the right to appoint a nominee to the board of directors of the Company as well as rights to participate in future equity issuances by the Company to maintain Greybrook Health Inc.’s pro rata ownership interest in the Company for so long as Greybrook Health Inc. (together with its affiliates) owns, controls or directs, directly or indirectly, at least 5% of the outstanding Common Shares (on a partially-diluted basis). In addition, Greybrook Health received customary resale, demand and “piggy-back” registration rights.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

We are exposed to a variety of financial risks in the normal course of our business, including currency, interest rate, credit, and liquidity risks. Our overall risk management program and business practices seek to minimize any potential adverse effects on our consolidated financial performance. Risk management is carried out under practices approved by the Board. This includes identifying, evaluating and hedging financial risks based on requirements of our organization. Our Board provides guidance for overall risk management, covering many areas of risk including interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and currency risk.

 

COVID-19

 

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a global emergency with respect to the outbreak of COVID-19 and then characterized it as a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The outbreak has spread globally, causing companies and various international jurisdictions to impose restrictions, such as quarantines, closures, cancellations and travel restrictions. While these effects are expected to be temporary and may be relaxed or rolled back if and when the COVID-19 pandemic abates, the actions may be reinstated as the pandemic continues to evolve and in response to actual or potential resurgences. The duration of the resulting business disruptions and related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. While all of our TMS Centers remain open, and are expected to remain open, during the pandemic, we experienced a temporary decline in both patient visits/treatments and new patient treatment starts during Fiscal 2020 as a result of the various “stay at home”, “shelter in place” and/or other restrictions imposed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This decline negatively impacted our business, and in particular has negatively impacted our cash flows during the year. As a result of our lower than expected cash flows during Fiscal 2020, we were required to obtain additional financing under the Credit Facility, the first $15 million tranche of which closed on December 31, 2020. On June 14, 2021, we also completed the Private Placement for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $23.5 million. However, it is possible that our consolidated results in future periods will be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

24

 

 

We currently expect to have available liquidity for between 12 to 14 months as of the date of this MD&A. Although we believe we will become cash flow positive in the future, we will require additional financing to fund our operating and investing activities, and we can provide no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

We rely on payors to make timely payments to us for services provided to their beneficiaries. If payors are negatively impacted by a decline in the economy, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we may experience slowdowns in collections and a reduction in the amounts we expect to collect.

 

We also rely on third-party suppliers and manufacturers for our TMS Devices. This outbreak has resulted in the extended shutdown of certain businesses around the globe, which may in turn result in disruptions or delays to our supply chain. These may include disruptions from the temporary closure of third-party supplier and manufacturer facilities, interruptions in TMS Device supply or restrictions on the export or shipment of TMS Devices. Any disruption to our suppliers and their contract manufacturers will likely impact our revenue and operating results. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic may also impact the availability of key TMS Device components, logistics flows and the availability of other resources to support critical operations.

 

A local, regional, national or international outbreak of a contagious disease, including, but not limited to, COVID-19, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, H1N1 influenza virus, avian flu or any other similar illness, or a fear of any of the foregoing, could adversely impact us by causing operating delays and disruptions, labor shortages and shutdowns (including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures). If we are unable to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operations, our costs may increase and revenue could decrease. It is unknown how we may be affected if such an epidemic persists for an extended period of time. A widespread health crisis could adversely affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could impact demand for the services we provide.

 

The future impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and there is no assurance that the outbreak will not have a material adverse impact on our future results. The extent of the impact will depend on future developments, including actions taken to contain COVID-19.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. We are exposed to changes in interest rates on our cash and long-term debt. The Credit Facility bears interest at a rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus 7.75%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 8.75%.

 

Credit Risk

 

Credit risk arises from the potential that a counterparty will fail to perform its obligations. We are exposed to credit risk from patients and third-party payors including federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. Our exposure to credit risk is mitigated in large part by the fact that the majority of our accounts receivable balances are receivable from large, creditworthy medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans.

 

25

 

 

Based on the Company’s industry, none of the accounts receivable is considered “past due”. Furthermore, the payors have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As such, the timing of collections is not linked to increased credit risk. The Company continues to collect on services rendered in excess of 24 months from the date such services were rendered.

 

Currency Risk

 

Currency risk is the risk to our earnings that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of those rates. We have minimal exposure to currency risk as substantially all of our revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars. We pay certain vendors and payroll costs in Canadian dollars from time to time, but due to the limited size and nature of these payments they do not expose us to significant currency risk.

 

Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that we may encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet our financial commitments or can only do so at an excessive cost. We aim to ensure there is sufficient liquidity to meet our short-term business requirements, taking into account our anticipated cash flows from operations, our holdings of cash and our ability to raise capital from existing or new investors and/or lenders.

 

Cash Flow From Operations and Need for Additional Financing

 

To date, we have had negative cash flow from operating activities. Although we believe that we will have positive cash flow from operating activities in the future, we may require additional financing to fund operating and investing activities. To the extent that we have negative cash flows in future periods, a portion of the proceeds of any offering may need to be allocated to funding this negative cash flow in addition to our operational expenses or other activities. While the Credit Facility provides the Company with an option of drawing up to an additional $15 million in three $5 million delayed-draw term loan tranches within the 24 months following closing of the Credit Facility, the ability to draw on such delayed-draw term loans is subject to the Company achieving specific financial milestones. See “Indebtedness”.

 

The Company, as part of its annual budgeting process, evaluates its estimated annual cash requirements to fund planned expansion activities and working capital requirements of existing operations. Based on this cash budget and considering its anticipated cash flows from regional operations, its holdings of cash, the Credit Facility and the net proceeds from the Private Placement, the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to meet its future operating expenses, capital expenditures and future debt service requirements for approximately the next 12 to 14 months. The Company’s cash balance and working capital as at June 30, 2021 was approximately $19.0 million and $14.3 million, respectively.

 

If additional liquidity is required, management plans to secure the necessary financing through the issuance of new public or private equity or debt instruments. There is no assurance that additional future funding will be available to the Company, or that it will be available on terms which are acceptable to management. The failure to raise such capital could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of all or any of the Company’s current contemplated or future business objectives and expansion plans and impede its continued development and growth. There can be no assurance that additional capital or other types of financing will be available if needed or that, if available, the terms of such financing will be favorable to the Company. If additional funds are raised through issuances of equity, existing shareholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities issued could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of Common Shares.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS & PROCEDURES AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

Disclosure Controls & Procedures

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that all material information relating to the Company is gathered and reported to senior management, including the CEO and the CFO, on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that the Company files or submits under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “U.S. Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Management, under the oversight of the CEO and CFO, has evaluated the design and effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and the CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings and in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the U.S. Exchange Act) were ineffective as a result of material weaknesses identified in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is further described below.

 

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the CEO and CFO do not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

 

There has been no change in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) which is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial reports for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. In designing such controls, it should be recognized that, due to inherent limitations, any controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Additionally, management is required to use judgment in evaluating controls and procedures.

 

An evaluation of the design and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting was carried out by management, under the supervision of the CEO and CFO. In making this evaluation, the CEO and CFO used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as a result of identified material weaknesses.

 

In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements that were prepared in accordance with IFRS, and audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

27

 

 

The Company discovered that, as an emerging growth company, it did not have the formalized internal control environment necessary to satisfy the accounting and financial reporting requirements, including a lack of documentation of its existing internal control environment. The control breakdown that gave rise to the material audit adjustment to revenue for the estimate for variable consideration identified by the external auditors was inadequate review and scrutiny of judgement involved in the application of IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers to changes to variable consideration estimates at December 31, 2020. The material weaknesses that our management identified related to the following:

 

the Company did not have an effective risk assessment process that successfully identified and assessed risks of misstatement to ensure controls were designed and implemented to respond to those risks;

 

the Company did not have an effective monitoring process to assess the consistent operation of internal control over financial reporting and to remediate known control deficiencies; and

 

the Company did not effectively design and maintain appropriate segregation of duties and controls over the effective preparation, review and approval, and associated documentation of journal entries.

 

These control deficiencies are pervasive in impact and resulted in certain material misstatements to the Company’s financial statements identified through the audit, and which were corrected by management. Identified errors resulted in certain adjustments to the amounts or disclosures included revenue, share-based compensation, contributed surplus, cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, loans payable, Lender Warrants, and professional and legal fees. These errors were corrected prior to the release of our annual financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2020.

 

The existence of these material weaknesses creates a reasonable possibility that an error may not be prevented or detected in the Company’s annual or interim financial statements on a timely basis.

 

We have established a remediation plan which includes the following specific remedial actions undertaken by management:

 

implementing a system to manage and automate our internal control over financial reporting processes and procedures;

 

hiring additional accounting and finance resources and personnel with expertise in internal control over financial reporting;

 

implementing processes and controls to better identify and manage the consistent operation of internal control over financial reporting and remediate known control deficiencies, including maintaining appropriate segregation of duties;
     
  implementing journal entry approval workflow within our key financial system; and

 

retaining an international accounting firm to conduct a comprehensive assessment of our internal control over financial reporting processes and procedures and make recommendations for additional improvements to such processes and procedures.

 

We will take all measures necessary to address and cure the underlying causes of the material weaknesses. Once implemented, our remediation plan may take significant time and expense to be fully implemented and may require significant management attention, and our efforts may not prove to be successful in remediating the material weakness and do not guarantee that we will not suffer additional material weaknesses and/or significant deficiencies in the future. Management has and will continue to take actions to implement these remedial measures throughout Fiscal 2021. At this time, management estimates that it will have remediated the material weaknesses described above by the end of Fiscal 2021.

 

Despite the material weaknesses, and based on management’s assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s control environment continued to result in financial statements in prior periods that presented fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in equity (deficit) and cash flows in accordance with IFRS. As a result, no changes to the required conclusions made by the Company’s certifying officers were necessary. Furthermore, management has concluded that the annual financial statements for the financial year ended December 31, 2020 and the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in equity (deficit) and cash flows in accordance with IFRS.

 

28

 

 

If our management is unable to certify the effectiveness of our internal controls or if additional material weaknesses in our internal controls are identified, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny and a loss of public confidence, which could harm our business and cause a decline in the price of the Common Shares. In addition, if we do not maintain adequate financial and management personnel, processes and controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial performance on a timely basis, which could cause a decline in the market price of the Common Shares and harm our ability to raise capital.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well-designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be 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. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within an organization are detected. The inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by individual acts of certain persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected in a timely manner or at all. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results could be materially adversely affected, which could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which in turn could result in a reduction in the trading price of the Common Shares.

 

As a result of our Nasdaq listing, we are now subject to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”). Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley (“Section 404”) requires companies subject to the reporting requirements of the U.S. securities laws to complete a comprehensive evaluation of our internal controls over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures and our management will be required to assess and issue a report concerning our internal controls over financial reporting. Pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”), we are classified as an “emerging growth company”. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies are exempt from certain reporting requirements, including the independent auditor attestation requirements of Section 404(b) of Sarbanes-Oxley. Under this exemption, our independent auditor will not be required to attest to and report on management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting during a transition period of up to five years from our initial registration in the United States. We will need to prepare for compliance with Section 404 by strengthening, assessing and testing our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. However, the continuous process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404 is complicated and time-consuming. Furthermore, we believe that our business will grow in the United States, in which case our internal controls will become more complex and will require significantly more resources and attention to ensure our internal controls remain effective overall. During the course of our testing, our management may identify additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies, which may not be remedied in a timely manner. If our management cannot favorably assess the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies additional material weaknesses in our internal controls, investor confidence in our financial results may weaken, and the market price of our securities may suffer.

 

29

 

 

There has been no change in the Company’s ICFR that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s ICFR.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments

 

There have been no changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates and judgments since the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, except for the following additional disclosures noted below.

 

Revenue recognition:

 

Due to the nature of the industry and complexity of the Company’s revenue arrangements, where price lists are subject to the discretion of payors, variable consideration exists that may result in price concessions and constraints to the transaction price for the services rendered.

 

In estimating this variable consideration, the Company uses significant judgement and considers various factors including, but not limited to, the following:

 

commercial payors and the administrators of federally-funded healthcare programs exercise discretion over pricing and may establish a base fee schedule for TMS (which is subject to change prior to final settlement) or negotiate a specific reimbursement rate with an individual TMS provider;

 

average of previous net service fees received by the applicable payor and fees received by other patients for similar services;

 

management’s best estimate, leveraging industry knowledge and expectations of third-party payors’ fee schedules;

 

factors that would influence the contractual rate and the related benefit coverage, such as obtaining pre-authorization of services and determining whether the procedure is medically necessary;

 

probability of failure in obtaining timely proper provider credentialing (including re-credentialling) and documentation, in order to bill various payors which may result in enhanced price concessions; and

 

variation in coverage for similar services among various payors and various payor benefit plans.

 

The Company updates the estimated transaction price (including updating its assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained) to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period in which such variances become known.

 

The above factors are not related to the creditworthiness of the large medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans encompassing the significant majority of the Company’s payors. The payors (large insurers and government agencies) have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As a result, the adjustment to reduce the transaction price and constrain the variable consideration is a price concession and not indicative of credit risk on the payors (i.e. not a bad debt expense).

 

Accounts receivable:

 

The Company considers a default to be a change in circumstances that results in the payor no longer having the ability and intent to pay. In these circumstances, a write-off of the related accounts receivable balance to bad debt would be recognized.

In estimating the collectability of its accounts receivable, the Company considers macroeconomic factors in assessing accounts receivable. Such factors would need to be significant to affect the ability and intent of the Company’s payors given their size and stature. No such factors were identified as at June 30, 2021, or the comparative period, and therefore no bad debt was recognized.

 

COVID-19:

 

The uncertainties around the outbreak of COVID-19 required the use of judgements and estimates which resulted in no material impacts for the period ended June 30, 2021. The future impact of COVID-19 uncertainties could generate, in future reporting periods, a significant risk of material adjustment to the carrying amounts of the following: goodwill and intangible assets impairment, leases, business combinations, provisions, litigations and claims.

 

The Company has experienced losses since inception and has negative cash flow from operating activities of $9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (six months ended June 30, 2020 – negative cash flow of $3.7 million). The COVID-19 pandemic, including the related government-imposed social distancing and “shelter-in-place” measures, continues to have a negative impact on the Company’s cash flow used in operating activities. Although the Company anticipates that it will have positive cash flow from operating activities in the future, the Company anticipates that its overall cash flows may continue to be negatively impacted until the global economic impact of COVID-19 subsides. The Company expects it will require additional financing to fund its operating and investing activities and such additional financing is required in order for the Company to repay its short-term obligations. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty that may cast substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company also has strong supportive shareholders and a proven track record of successfully raising capital when required. The failure to raise such capital when required could result in the delay or indefinite postponement of current business objectives and additional financing may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

 

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumptions were not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position classification used.
