Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of University General Health System, Inc. (the “Company”) are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) and include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2012, Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Although the Company believes the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the interim financial information presented not misleading, certain information relating to the Company’s organization and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year.

Principles of Consolidation and Reporting. The Company presents its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Affiliates. The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of less-than-100%-owned affiliates the Company controls. Accordingly, the Company has recorded non-controlling interests in the earnings and equity of such entities. The Company recorded adjustments to non-controlling interests for the allocable portion of income or loss to which the non-controlling interest holders are entitled based upon their portion of the subsidiaries they own. Distributions to holders of non-controlling interest are adjusted to the respective non-controlling interest holders’ balance.

Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable primarily consist of amounts due from third-party payors and patients. Receivables from government-related programs (i.e. Medicare and Medicaid) represent the only concentrated groups of credit risk for the Company and management does not believe that there is significant credit risks associated with these receivables. Commercial and managed care receivables consist of receivables from various payors involved in diverse activities and subject to differing economic conditions, and do not represent any concentrated credit risk to the Company. Self-pay revenues are derived primarily from patients who do not have any form of healthcare coverage. The revenues associated with self-pay patients are generally reported at the Company’s gross charges. The Company evaluates these patients, after the patient’s medical condition is determined to be stable, for their ability to pay based upon federal and state poverty guidelines, qualifications for Medicaid or other governmental assistance programs. Accordingly, the accounts receivable reported in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets are recorded at net amount expected to be received.

Accounts receivables are stated at estimated net realizable value. The breakdown of accounts receivable by payer classification as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 consists of the following:

 

     March 31, 2012     December 31, 2011  

Commercial and managed care providers

     56.5     54.3

Government-related programs

     36.4     34.5

Self-pay patients

     7.1     11.2
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Total

     100.0     100.0
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

Accounts receivable are based on gross patient receivables of $48,231,877 and $45,726,222, net of contractual adjustments of $28,835,251 and $27,909,614 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Additionally, the Company had other accounts receivable of $562,812 and $167,080 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The Company maintains allowances for uncollectible accounts for estimated losses resulting from the payors’ inability to make payments on accounts. The Company assesses the reasonableness of the allowance account based on historic write-offs, the aging of accounts and other current conditions. Furthermore, management continually monitors and adjusts the allowances associated with its receivables. Accounts are reserved as bad debt when collection efforts have been exhausted. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $8,479,365 and $7,070,327 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues in the period in which services are performed. The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from the hospital segment. Accordingly, the revenues reported in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations are recorded at the net amount expected to be received.

Hospital Segment

The Company recognizes net patient service revenues in the reporting period in which it performs the service based on its current billing rates (i.e., gross charges), less adjustments and estimated discounts for contractual allowances (principally for patients covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and managed care and other health plans). The Company records gross service charges in its accounting records on an accrual basis using its established rates for the type of service provided to the patient. The Company recognizes an estimated contractual allowance to reduce gross patient charges to the amount it estimates it will actually realize for the service rendered based upon previously agreed to rates with a payor. Such estimated contractual allowances are based primarily upon historical collection rates for various payers, and assumes consistently with regard to patients discharged in similar time periods for the same payor classes. Payors include federal and state agencies, including Medicare and Medicaid, managed care health plans, commercial insurance companies and patients.

The process of estimating contractual allowances requires the Company to estimate the amount expected to be received based on payor contract provisions. The key assumption in this process is the estimated contractual reimbursement percentage, which is based on payor classification and historical paid claims data. Due to the complexities involved in these estimates, actual payments the Company receives could be different from the amounts it estimates and records. If the actual contractual reimbursement percentage under government programs and managed care contracts differed by 1.0% at March 31, 2012 from its estimated reimbursement percentage, net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 would have changed by approximately $0.8 million, and net accounts receivable at March 31, 2012 would have changed by approximately $0.1 million. Final settlements under some of these programs are subject to adjustment based on administrative review and audit by third parties. The Company accounts for adjustments to previous program reimbursement estimates as contractual allowance adjustments and reports them in the periods that such adjustments become known.

The hospital has agreements with third-party payors that provide for payments to the hospital at amounts different from its established rates. Payment arrangements include prospectively-determined rates per discharge, reimbursed costs, discounted charges, and per diem payments. Net patient service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amount from patients, third-party payors, and others for services rendered, including estimated contractual adjustments under reimbursement agreements with third party payors. Allowances and discounts are accrued on an estimated basis in the period the related services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined. These allowance and discounts are related to the Medicare and Medicaid programs and managed care contracts.

The following table sets forth the revenues (after contractual adjustments and discounts) and percentages from major payor sources for the Company’s hospital segment during the periods indicated:

Senior Living Segment

Revenues related to the Company’s Senior Living segment consist primarily of resident fees, entrance fees, community fees and management fees. Resident fee revenue is recorded when services are rendered and consists of fees for basic housing, support services and fees associated with additional services such as personalized assisted living care. Residency agreements are generally non-binding, for a term of one year, with resident fees billed monthly in advance.

The TrinityCare Facilities have residency agreements that require the resident to pay an upfront fee prior to occupying the senior living community. The non-refundable portion of the entrance fee is recorded as deferred revenue and amortized over the estimated stay of the resident based on an actuarial valuation. The refundable portion of a resident’s entrance fee is generally refundable within a certain number of months or days following contract termination. In such instances, the refundable portion of the fee is not amortized and included in refundable entrance fees and deferred revenue.

All refundable amounts due to residents at any time in the future, including those recorded as deferred revenue are classified as current liabilities. The non-refundable portion of entrance fees expected to be earned and recognized in revenue in one year is recorded as a current liability. The balance of the non-refundable portion is recorded as a long-term liability.

The majority of community fees received by the TrinityCare Facilities is non-refundable and is recorded initially as deferred revenue. The deferred amounts, including both the deferred revenue and the related direct resident lease origination costs, are amortized over the estimated stay of the resident, which is consistent with the contractual terms of the resident lease. The refundable portion of a resident’s community fee is generally refundable within a certain number of months or days following the resident’s move-in into the community. In such instances, the refundable portion of the fee is not amortized and included in refundable community fees and deferred revenue.

TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC provides management services to the TrinityCare Facilities, as well as an assisted living community and two memory care greenhouses in Georgia. Management fee revenue is determined by an agreed upon percentage of gross revenues and recorded as services are provided. Management fee revenue received from the TrinityCare Facilities has been eliminated in consolidation.

Support Services Segment

Billing and coding revenues are generated from revenue cycle management services provided by UGHS Autimis Billing Inc. and UGHS Autimis Coding Inc. to UGH LP and other third-party clients. Fees charged for these services are defined in service agreements and based upon a stated percentage of cash collections. Food and support services revenues are generated from environmental, food and nutrition, and facilities management services by Sybaris Group Inc. to clients in the Houston metropolitan area. Revenue is recognized as services are performed. Billing, coding and food and support services revenue received from the Hospital operating segment has been eliminated in consolidation.

Other Comprehensive Income. The Company has no components of Other Comprehensive Income and, accordingly, no Statement of Comprehensive Income has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In July 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-07 “Health Care Entities (Topic 954) Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities” (“ASU 2011-07”), which requires the provision for bad debts associated with patient service revenue to be separately displayed on the face of the statement of operations as a component of net revenue. This standard also requires enhanced disclosure of significant changes in estimates related to patient bad debts. ASU 2011-07 requires retrospective application and will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. This pronouncement will change the presentation of the Company’s revenues on its statements of operations as well as requiring additional disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2011-07 during the period ended March 31, 2012. All periods presented in this Form 10-Q have been reclassified in accordance with ASU 2011-7.

NOTE 3 — GOING CONCERN

The Company had net income of $489,438 and net cash provided by operating activities of $2,971,037 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In addition, the Company had negative working capital of $57,712,710 and held cash and cash equivalents of $423,894 at March 31, 2012. The negative working capital amounts raise substantial doubt concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

Management believes that the Company’s current level of cash flows will be sufficient to sustain operations in the next twelve months. The Company is currently working with certain vendors to extend repayment terms. Further, management believes that the Company has additional opportunities to raise capital in the public markets and is in current negotiations with investors and banks to raise capital and secure additional financing.

Effective April 30, 2012 the Company completed a private placement transaction for the purchase of 35,950,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $0.14 per share from a group of accredited investors, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.0 million. The shares were issued without registration in reliance on the exemption in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. Effective May 2, 2012 the Company also completed a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), for the private issuance and sale by the Company to the Purchasers an aggregate of 3,808 shares of the Company’s Series C Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) with each Preferred Share initially convertible into approximately 4,545 shares of the Company’s common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 17,309,094 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Warrants”). The Preferred Shares were issued at an original issue discount. As such, for each $1,000 invested, a Purchaser will receive Preferred Shares with an aggregate stated value of $1,120. After deducting for fees and expenses, the aggregate net proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Shares and Warrants was approximately $3.1 million. The Company used these proceeds to pay tax payments and retired certain outstanding loan balances.

There can be no assurance that the plans and actions proposed by management will be successful or that unforeseen circumstances will not require the Company to seek additional funding sources in the future or effectuate plans to conserve liquidity. In addition, there can be no assurance that in the event additional sources of funds are needed they will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

NOTE 4 — ACQUISITIONS

TrinityCare

On June 28, 2011, the Company, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, agreed to acquire 100% of the assets and assumed certain of the liabilities of the TrinityCare Facilities and separately agreed to acquire 51% of the ownership interests of TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC ( "TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC"). The acquisitions contemplated by these agreements were completed effective June 30, 2011 (the “Closing Date”). The TrinityCare Facilities consist of three senior living communities, located in Texas and Tennessee. TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC is a developer of senior living communities and provides management services to the TrinityCare Facilities as well as an assisted living community and two memory care greenhouses in Georgia. The TrinityCare Facilities and TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC are sometimes referred to collectively as “TrinityCare.” The Company acquired TrinityCare to further its integrated regional diversified healthcare network. The Company has included the financial results of TrinityCare in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. TrinityCare is included in the Senior Living operating segment.

The total purchase consideration for the TrinityCare Facilities was $17,898,735, consisting of: 1) $1,407,546 cash payable on August 30, 2011; 2) $2,815,089 in seller subordinated promissory notes payable over two years; and 3) the issuance by UGHS of 14,395,895 shares of its Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "UGHS Common Stock"), valued at $13,676,100. The total purchase consideration was based upon a fair market valuation of TrinityCare determined by the Company, with consideration of the valuation report obtained from a third party appraisal firm. As of March 31, 2012, the outstanding balance of the cash payable for the acquisitions was $1,007,380.

This acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company conducted assessments of net assets acquired and recognized amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair values, while transaction and integration costs associated with the acquisitions were expensed as incurred. The initial accounting for the business combinations is not complete and adjustments to provisional amounts, or recognition of additional assets acquired or liabilities assumed, may occur as more detailed analyses are completed and additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition dates.

Goodwill includes goodwill attributable to both the Company’s and noncontrolling interest. The fair value of goodwill attributable to noncontrolling interest was estimated to be approximately $5,150,146 and was based on the purchase price the Company paid for its 51% ownership interest of TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC. The goodwill balance is primarily attributable to TrinityCare’s assembled workforce and the expected synergies and revenue opportunities when combining the senior living communities with the Company’s integrated healthcare network.

On June 30, 2011, separate and apart from the TrinityCare acquisitions, the Company through wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into Profit Participation Agreements (“Profit Agreements”) with one of the minority members (“Member”) of each of the Sellers of the TrinityCare Facilities. Pursuant to the Profit Agreements, through which the Company granted a 10.0% interest in the net proceeds attributable to any fiscal year during the term of the Profit Agreements for each of the facilities in exchange for specified future and on-going duties and services to be provided by the Member for the benefit of the facility. The Company will estimate and accrue for anticipated profit interest payments for each fiscal year.

Autimis

On June 30, 2011, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company executed asset acquisition agreements with Autimis Billing and Autimis Coding (collectively “Autimis”), pursuant to which the Company acquired the business assets and properties of Autimis. Autimis Billing is a revenue cycle management company that specializes in serving hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, outpatient laboratories and free-standing outpatient emergency rooms. Autimis Coding is a specialized health care coding company also serving hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, outpatient laboratories and free-standing outpatient emergency rooms. Prior to the acquisition, Autimis had provided billing, coding and other revenue cycle management services to UGH since September 2009 under separate service agreements. The Company acquired Autimis to further its integrated regional diversified healthcare network. The Company has included the financial results of Autimis in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Autimis is included in the Support Services segment.

The total purchase consideration for Autimis was approximately $8,280,000, consisting of the issuance by UGHS of 9,000,000 shares (the “Autimis Stock Consideration”) of the Company’s Common Stock. Following completion of the Autimis acquisition, Sellers of Autimis owned approximately 3.3% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

In 2006, the Company entered into a $9,000,000 construction loan with Amegy Bank. Advances under this loan were originally scheduled to mature on March 27, 2007.

The loan contains various terms and conditions, including operational and financial restrictions and limitations, and affirmative covenants. The covenants include financial covenants measured on a quarterly basis which require the Company to maintain maximum leverage and minimum fixed charge ratios as defined in the loan agreement.

The Lease Agreement has an initial term of 10 years beginning October 1, 2006, plus tenant's option to renew the term for two additional 10 year periods. In addition to base rent, the Lease Agreement provides that the Company pays its pro-rata share of the operating expenses. The obligations of the Company under the Lease Agreement are secured by the personal guarantees of certain shareholders of the Company. The Company has previously been in litigation with Cambridge concerning monetary default of certain rent obligations under the Lease Agreement. The Company has cured such defaults and makes periodic payment of rent as permitted by current cash flows requirements. Should the Company’s relationship with Cambridge deteriorate further, the Company will be required to devote additional resources to protect its rights under the Lease Agreement.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company recorded a related party capital lease obligation of $30,981,663 and $31,042,859, respectively.

The Company and Sybaris have entered into a management services agreement, pursuant to which Sybaris provides food services, plant operations and management, environmental and other services to the hospital for an initial term of five years. Compensation under this agreement is based on (i) expense reimbursement for direct costs incurred by Sybaris, (ii) a general expense allowance of six percent (6.0%) of the direct costs incurred by Sybaris and (iii) a service fee of four percent (4.0%) of the direct costs incurred by Sybaris.

NOTE 8 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of its properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company, except for the following:

Prexus

On December 4, 2009, Prexus Health Consultants, LLC and its affiliate, Prexus Health LLC (collectively, “Prexus”), sued UGH LP and Ascension Physician Solutions, LLC ("APS") in the 270th District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 2009-77474, seeking (i) $224,863 for alleged breaches of a Professional Services Agreement (the “PSA”) under which Prexus provided billing, coding and transcription services, (ii) $608,005 for alleged breaches of a Consulting Services Agreement (the “CSA”) under which Prexus provided professional management and consulting services, and (iii) lost profit damages for the remaining term of the agreements (UGH LP and APS terminated these contracts effective September 9, 2009). Prexus subsequently added additional claims seeking lost profits and other damages for alleged tortious interference of Prexus contracts. In October 2010, UGH LP and APS filed counterclaims against Prexus seeking $1,687,242 in damages caused by Prexus’ breach of the CSA.

On October 11, 2011, the trial court judge entered judgment against UGH LP for approximately $2,900,000, including $2,100,000 in lost profits. The judgment also awarded additional amounts for pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. UGH LP timely appealed the lost profits portion of the judgment and has suspended enforcement of the judgment pending the result of the appeal. The Company believes the appellate court is likely to reduce the amount of the judgment to $861,000 which is the amount of unpaid fees to Prexus prior to the effective date of termination. As a result, the Company accrued this amount plus $139,000 for attorney fees and estimated post judgment interest as of March 31, 2012, which is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Siemens

On June 29, 2010, Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. (“Siemens”) sued UGH LP in the 215th District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 2010-40305, seeking approximately $7,000,000 for alleged breaches of (i) a Master Equipment Lease Agreement dated August 1, 2006 and related agreements (the “Lease Agreements”), pursuant to which UGH LP leased certain radiology equipment and (ii) an Information Technology Agreement dated March 31, 2006 and related agreements (the “IT Agreements”) pursuant to which Siemens agreed to provide an information technology system, software and related services. On November 22, 2010 UGH LP filed counterclaims against Siemens seeking approximately $5,850,000 against Siemens for breach of contract, negligent representation and breach of warranty based on Siemens breach of the Lease Agreements and the IT Agreements. On February 28, 2011, the court signed an order granting partial summary judgment in favor of Siemens and against UGH LP as to UGH LP's liability for breach of the Lease Agreements, but not as to damages sought by Siemens.

On September 15, 2011, the parties to the Siemens litigation reached a settlement of the pending litigation. As part of the settlement, UGH LP agreed to pay Siemens an aggregate of $4,850,000 over a period of 20 months beginning in October 2011 through May 2013. The Company will have an on-going relationship with Siemens. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 the Company accrued the present value of this unpaid claim of $2,753,232 and $3,451,555 in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

UGH LP is currently in a dispute with Siemens regarding the settlement agreement entered into on September 15, 2011. Specifically UGH LP disputes the entry of the agreed judgment securing the settlement as a result of an alleged breach of the settlement agreement. UGH LP has filed a timely appeal and suspended enforcement of the agreement judgment pending such appeal.

Internal Revenue Service

UGH LP currently owes the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) past due payroll taxes. Until paid in full, statutory penalties and interest will continue to accrue. The IRS has filed tax liens covering such amounts with various governmental authorities and has taken other actions to collect these balances. UGH LP is working with IRS representatives on payment arrangements to satisfy these balances on an amicable basis. In August 2011, UGH LP entered into an installment agreement with the IRS pursuant to which UGH LP paid $165,000 per month towards satisfaction of the outstanding balance for various quarters in 2009. In March 2012, this agreement was terminated and the outstanding balance thereafter has been paid in full. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company accrued $4,943,678 and $4,171,826, respectively.

Management Service Agreements

Kingwood Neighborhood Emergency Center

On February 25, 2011, UGH LP entered into agreements to establish the emergency room operations of Kingwood Neighborhood Emergency Center (“Emergency Center”) as a hospital outpatient department (“HOPD”) of UGH, and the Emergency Center was opened on April 25, 2011. UGH conducts these operations pursuant to real estate and equipment subleases with Emergency Center.

Emergency Center and UGH LP also entered into a management services agreement whereby the Emergency Center provides ongoing administrative and management services to UGH LP for this department. All agreements have an initial term of two years beginning February 25, 2011, plus automatic renewal options for additional one year periods. In consideration for such services, UGH LP pays an agreed percentage of all revenue received for each Emergency Center patient less the lease expenses and other expenses for these operations as defined in the agreement.

UGH LP also retains an exclusive right of first refusal for the purchase of the Emergency Center business during the term of the management services agreement and 12 months following any termination of that agreement. Effective February 10, 2012, both parties have mutually agreed to terminate this agreement.

NOTE 9 — EQUITY

Common Stock Offerings

On March 28, 2011, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (“Reorganization Agreement”) executed on March 10, 2011, UGH GP and UGH LP (collectively “UGH Partnerships”) were acquired by SeaBridge Freight Corp. (“SeaBridge”), a publicly reporting Nevada corporation, in a “reverse” merger (“Merger”) in exchange for the issuance of shares of common stock, a majority of the common stock, to the former partners of the UGH Partnerships.

The Company is subject to a tax mandated by the State of Texas based on a defined calculation of gross margin (the “margin tax”). The margin tax is calculated by applying a tax rate to a base that considers both revenue and expenses and therefore has the characteristics of an income tax. As a result, the Company recorded $99,000 and $81,000 in state income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively

NOTE 12 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Under ASC Topic No. 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial statement is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision-making group is composed of the chief executive officer, chief financial officers and members of senior management.

The Company operates in three lines of business—(i) as a hospital, (ii) as a senior living care community, and (iii) as a support services company. These segments were determined based on the way that the Company’s chief operating decision makers organize the Company’s business activities for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

Before the second quarter of 2011, the Company reported one operating segment, the Hospital. As a result of the acquisitions of TrinityCare and Autimis in June 2011 and Sybaris in December 2011, the Company changed its reportable segments as follows:

 

  (i) Hospital. The Company provides a full array of services including inpatient and outpatient medical treatments and surgeries, heart catheterization procedures, physical therapy, diagnostic imaging and respiratory therapy, as well as other ancillary services. The Company also provides 24-7 emergency services and comprehensive inpatient services including critical care and cardiovascular services.

 

  (ii) Senior Living. Senior living communities offer housing and 24-hour assistance with activities of daily life to mid-acuity frail and elderly residents. The Company also operates memory care services specially designed for residents with Alzheimer’s disease and progressive dementia.

 

  (iii) Support Services. The Company provides billing, coding and other revenue cycling management services to University General Hospital, its 69-bed acute care hospital in Houston, as well as other clients not affiliated with the Company. The Company’s food and support services group provides a number of interrelated service including food, hospitality and facility services for businesses and healthcare facilities.

NOTE 13 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 13, 2012, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company completed the assets acquisition of Baytown Endoscopy Center, LLC (the “Baytown Center”). The Baytown Center is a three-bed ambulatory surgery center which operates as a hospital outpatient department (HOPD) of the Company’s hospital segment. Primary procedures at the Baytown Center include gastroenterology and pain management. The Baytown Center is co-managed with Jacinto Medical Group, P.A., which is a prominent multi-specialty group of physicians operating in Baytown. The Company expects the Baytown Center to contribute approximately $12 million in net patient revenue, along with projected Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) of $5 million, during its first year of operations. Baytown Center is included in the hospital segment. The Company paid $161,915 in total consideration for the assets. The transaction was financed primarily with issuing a one-year promissory note payable. The purchase included assets and assumption of certain equipment financing commitments.

Effective April 30, 2012 the Company completed a private placement transaction for the purchase of 35,950,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $0.14 per share from a group of accredited investors, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.0 million.

General

University General Health System, Inc. (“we,” “UGHS” or the “Company”) is a diversified, integrated multi-specialty health care provider that delivers concierge physician- and patient-oriented services by providing timely, innovative health solutions that are uniquely competitive, efficient, and adaptive in today's health care delivery environment. We currently operate one hospital and two ambulatory surgical centers in the Houston area. We also own a revenue management company, a hospitality service provider and facility management company, three senior living facilities and manage six senior living facilities. We plan to complete additional complementary acquisitions during the remainder of 2012 and future years in Houston and other markets.

Our current business was founded in 2005 to establish University General Hospital in Houston, Texas (“UGH”), a 69-bed physician-owned general acute care hospital, including six intensive care unit beds and 11 intermediate care unit beds. The hospital provides inpatient, outpatient and ancillary services including inpatient surgery, outpatient surgery, heart catheterization procedures, physical therapy, diagnostic imaging and respiratory therapy. UGH provides 24-7 emergency services and comprehensive inpatient services including critical care and cardiovascular services. We formed University General Hospital, LP (“UGH LP”) as a Texas limited partnership to own and operate UGH and formed University Hospital Systems, LLP as a Delaware limited liability partnership (“UGH GP”) to act as the general partner of UGH LP. UGH commenced business operations as a general acute care hospital on September 27, 2006.

On March 31, 2011, we formed UGHS Hospitals, Inc., UGHS Ancillary Services, Inc., UGHS Management Services, Inc., and UGHS Real Estate, Inc. Effective June 30, 2011, we completed the acquisitions of the three senior living communities: Trinity Oaks of Pearland, Texas, Trinity Shores of Port Lavaca, Texas, and Trinity Hills of Knoxville, Tennessee. UGHS also acquired 51.0% of the ownership interests of TrinityCare Senior Living, LLC (“TrinityCare”), a developer and manager of senior living communities. As UGHS’ majority-owned subsidiary, TrinityCare continues to manage the three existing senior living communities, and will continue to develop additional communities across the United States and internationally. Additionally, effective June 30, 2011, UGHS acquired specialized health care billing, coding and other revenue cycle management companies, Autimis, LLC, and Autimis Medical Billing, LLC.

On December 31, 2011, we completed the acquisition of Sybaris Group, LLC (“Sybaris”), a luxury hospitality service provider and facility management company. The acquisition of Sybaris will allow us to grow more rapidly and leverage the scalability of our business model. In connection with the acquisition of Sybaris, we changed our Revenue Management operating segment name to Support Services, Inc. (“Support Services”) and additionally Sybaris changed its name to Sybaris Group, Inc. and is included in the Support Services operating segment. We have included the financial results of Sybaris in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

As of March 31, 2012, we conducted operations through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, UGHS Hospitals, Inc., UGHS Ancillary Services, Inc., UGHS Management Services, Inc., UGHS Real Estate, Inc., UGHS Senior Living of Pearland, LLC, UGHS Senior Living of Port Lavaca, LLC, UGHS Senior Living of Knoxville, LLC, UGHS Autimis Billing, Inc., UGHS Coding, Inc. and Sybaris Group, Inc.

We made progress on a number of our strategic initiatives during the three months ended March 31, 2012. During the first quarter, our hospital segment earned national recognition for distinction in Bariatric Surgery by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas for demonstrating better overall quality of care and patient results in bariatric surgery. Blue Distinction is a national designation awarded by Blue Cross and Blue Shield companies to medical facilities that have demonstrated expertise in delivering quality healthcare in the areas of bariatric surgery, cardiac care, complex and rare cancers, knee and hip replacement, spine surgery or transplants. To earn this designation, University General Hospital was evaluated based on objective, evidence-based selection criteria established with input from expert physicians and medical organizations. The goal of Blue Distinction is to identify medical facilities that deliver better overall quality and medical outcomes for specific types of specialty care, thereby helping patients and doctors make more informed hospital choices.

In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2012, we entered into a three-year agreement with Vital Weight Control, Inc. (“NeWeigh”) in order to expand the bariatric services offered by University General Hospital. NeWeigh, a patient advocacy group, is a pioneer in comprehensive weight loss programs in the Houston area. Founded in 1991, NeWeigh’s mission was to provide a multi-disciplinary program to assist people who desired treatment for morbid obesity. NeWeigh’s services include motivational support; access to psychological and dietary counseling; non-medical, medical and surgical treatment options; and pre- and post-operative support groups. Additionally, NeWeigh offers assistance to those who are seeking insurance approval for treatment of this condition. Based upon historical data, we anticipate that University General Hospital will increase the number of bariatric surgeries and other related procedures once the NeWeigh program is fully implemented, resulting in an increase in revenue for the hospital. Moreover, no additional immediate outlay of capital is anticipated by us, as University General Hospital is fully equipped for bariatric procedures at the present time.

The financial information, discussion and analysis that follow should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements as included in the Form 10-K.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $3.7 million, or 24.0%, to $19.1 million as compared to $15.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The revenues increase was primarily attributable to a 6.3% increase in our average daily census. The average daily census for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 34 as compared to 32 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This increase in net patient revenues was also driven by the continued development of the physician-centric, integrated health delivery system strategy. The acquisitions of TrinityCare, Autimis and Sybaris contributed to additional revenues of approximately $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Salaries, wages and benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased approximately $2.2 million, or 36.1%, to $8.3 million from $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, salaries, wages and benefits increased to 43.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 39.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in the salaries, wages and benefits rate was primarily due to the acquisitions of TrinityCare, Autimis and Sybaris of approximately $2.1 million.

Medical supplies expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased approximately $0.2 million, or 6.5%, to $2.9 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On an adjusted patient day (“APD”) basis, medical expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased approximately by 24.8% or $486 per APD from $646 per APD for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our medical supplies expense decreased to 15.4% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to 20.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2011. Medical supplies rate decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to an increase in net revenues, coupled with a decrease in the number of surgeries performed as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Surgeries for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were 1,515 compared to 1,618 for the comparable prior year period.

We have terminated all of our remaining management services agreements during the first quarter of 2012. Management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1.4 million.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased approximately $0.8 million, or 22.9%, to $4.3 million from $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in G&A expenses was due to the acquisitions of TrinityCare, Autimis and Sybaris of approximately $1.4 million, offset by a decrease in a hospital segment by approximately $0.6 million. As a percentage of revenues, G&A expenses improved to 22.1% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 22.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to increased net revenue.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we settled certain accounts payable with vendors, and reduced the accounts payable owed to those vendors. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized a gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $0.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization expense remained consistent at $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, as a result of some assets being fully depreciated in the current quarter as compared to prior quarter, offset by an increase of approximately $0.3 million in the acquisitions of TrinityCare, Autimis and Sybaris.

Net interest expense was $1.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011. Interest expense is primarily comprised of interest on borrowings under the lines of credit, amortization of debt issue costs, interest on financing lease obligations, related party notes and debt obligations. The increase in interest expense in the first quarter of 2012, as compared to the prior year first quarter, was attributable to an increase in our outstanding debt balance in the fourth quarter and debt assumed from the acquisition of TrinityCare and Sybaris.

We are subject to a tax mandated by the State of Texas based on a defined calculation of gross margin (the “margin tax”). The margin tax is calculated by applying a tax rate to a base that considers both revenue and expenses and therefore has the characteristics of an income tax. As a result, we recorded $99,000 and $81,000 in state income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

As a result of the foregoing, our net income was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Segment Results of Operations

Hospital

Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased by $1.3 million, or 8.4%, to $16.7 million as compared to $15.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The revenues increase was primarily attributable to a 6.3% increase in our average daily census. The average daily census for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 34 as compared to 32 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This increase in net patient revenues was also driven by the continued development of the physician-centric, integrated health delivery system strategy.

Our provision for doubtful accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased $1.1 million to 7.8% of net revenue before the provision for doubtful accounts as compared to 1.8% of net revenue before the provision for doubtful accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2011. This change was primarily due to an increase in self-pay patients in the mix of patients that we serve.

We adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-07, Presentation and Disclosure of Patient Service Revenue, Provision for Bad Debts, and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts for Certain Health Care Entities (“ASU 2011-07”), during the period ended March 31, 2012. ASU 2011-07 requires health care entities to change the presentation of the statement of operations by reclassifying the provision for doubtful accounts from an operating expense to a deduction from patient service revenues. All periods presented have been reclassified in accordance with ASU 2011-07.

Our day’s revenues outstanding were 62 days at March 31, 2012 as compared to 59 days at December 31, 2011. To calculate our day’s revenues outstanding, we divide our average accounts receivable net of allowance for doubtful accounts by our net revenues per day. Our net revenues per day is calculated by dividing our revenues for the periods by the number of calendar days in the periods.

Salaries, wages and benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased approximately $0.1 million, or 1.6%, to $6.2 million from $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, salaries, wages and benefits decreased to 37.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 from 39.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in the salaries, wages and benefits rate was primarily due to increased net revenue as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Medical supplies expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased approximately $0.2 million, or 6.5%, to $2.9 million from $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. On an adjusted patient day (“APD”) basis, medical expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased approximately by 24.8% or $486 per APD from $646 per APD for the three months ended March 31, 2011. As a percentage of revenues, our medical supplies expense decreased to 17.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to 20.5% in the three months ended March 31, 2011. Medical supplies decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to an increase in net revenues, coupled with a decrease in the number of surgeries performed as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011. Surgeries for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were 1,515 compared to 1,618 for the comparable prior year period.

We have terminated all of our remaining management services agreements during the first quarter of 2012. Management fees for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $1.4 million.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased approximately $0.6 million, or 17.1%, to $2.9 million from $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in G&A expenses was due to the benefits of the acquisitions of Autimis and Sybaris which provided hospitality services, facilities management and revenue management services. These expenses were eliminated in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 decreased by $0.4 million, or 22.2%, to $1.4 million as compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense resulted from assets being fully depreciated in the current year first quarter as compared to the prior year period.

Net interest expense was $1.1 million in current year first quarter as compared to $1.2 million in the prior year first quarter. Interest expense is primarily comprised of interest on borrowings under the lines of credit, amortization of debt issue costs, interest on financing lease obligations, related party notes and debt obligations. The decrease in interest expense was due to a lower average outstanding amount on note during the current year first quarter.

Operating income of the hospital segment was approximately $1.9 million for the current year first quarter, as compared to the operating income of $0.8 million for the year prior year first quarter. The increase in operating income was due to improved leveraging of expenses from higher revenues. In addition, the decrease in net operating expense was driven by the services costs provided by the support services segment, coupled with no management fees incurred in this period as compared to the prior year period.

Senior Living

Senior living net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $1.9 million. This reflects average revenue per unit occupied of $2,987. This is a blended rate of assisted living dominant facilities which includes independent living and memory care units. The senior living properties reported continued stable occupancy, with an overall occupancy in excess of 92% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Overall occupancy and revenues were not negatively impacted by the significant downturn in the macroeconomic environment, including the high unemployment levels and poor housing markets which affect private pay occupancy.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, salaries and benefit expense was $0.8 million, G&A expense was $0.7 million, depreciation and amortization was $0.3 million and interest expenses was $0.3 million. The income from operations was approximately $0.2 million.

Support Services

Support services segment revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were approximately $0.5 million. The net operating expense was $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary cash requirements are paying our operating expenses, servicing our debt, capital expenditures on our existing properties, acquisitions and distributions to non-controlling interests. Our primary cash sources are cash flows from operating activities, issuances of debt and equity securities.

Key components of our cash flows for the current year and prior year are summarized below:

 

     Three Months Ended
March 31,
 
     2012     2011  

Net cash provided by (used in):

    

Operating activities

   $ 2,971,037      $ (5,027,217

Investing activities

     (295,319     (176,744

Financing activities

     (2,789,842     3,037,141   

During the current year first quarter, we generated $3.0 million in cash from operating activities. Net income, adjusted for non-cash expenses and income, provided cash of approximately $3.5 million. Net changes in operating assets and liabilities used net cash of approximately $0.5 million, which primarily included a $1.0 million increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and tax payable, offset by a $1.9 million increase in accounts receivable and a decrease of $0.4 million in prepaid expenses and other assets.

During the prior year first quarter, the cash used in operating activities was $5.0 million. Net loss, adjusted for non-cash expenses and income, provided cash of approximately $0.4 million. Net change in operating assets and liabilities used net cash of approximately $5.4 million, which primarily included a $4.2 million decrease in accounts payable, accrued expenses, tax payable and related party receivables and payables. This decrease was partially offset by an approximately $0.9 million in accounts receivable and a $0.3 million increase in inventories and prepaid expenses and other assets.

The cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.3 million for the current year first quarter, compared to $0.2 million for the prior year first quarter. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to additional purchases of property and equipment as compared to the prior year.

The cash used in financing activities was approximately $2.8 million for the current year first quarter, compared to cash provided of approximately $3.0 million for the prior year period. The decrease over the prior year was primarily caused by higher payments on short-term notes payable. Additionally, during the current year first quarter, we did not incur any new borrowings and capital raise.

As of March 31, 2012, we had a negative working capital of approximately $58.0 million compared to a negative of approximately $58.5 million as of December 31, 2011. We are a highly leveraged company with debt service requirements. Our short-term debt totaled approximately $38.7 million at March 31, 2012. The negative working capital amounts raise substantial doubt concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

Effective April 30, 2012 the Company completed a private placement transaction for the purchase of 35,950,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $0.14 per share from a group of accredited investors, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $5.0 million. The shares were issued without registration in reliance on the exemption in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. Effective May 2, 2012 the Company also completed a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), for the private issuance and sale by the Company to the Purchasers an aggregate of 3,808 shares of the Company’s Series C Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”) with each Preferred Share initially convertible into approximately 4,545 shares of the Company’s common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 17,309,094 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Warrants”). The Preferred Shares were issued at an original issue discount. As such, for each $1,000 invested, a Purchaser will receive Preferred Shares with an aggregate stated value of $1,120. After deducting for fees and expenses, the aggregate net proceeds from the sale of the Preferred Shares and Warrants was approximately $3.1 million. The Company used these proceeds to pay tax payments and retired certain outstanding loan balances.

We intend to complete a series of transactions comprising a refinancing and restructuring plan (the "Restructuring Plan") of certain current debt obligations that is expected to involve (i) the refinancing loans with certain financial institutions, (ii) the completion of a new revolving line of credit secured by the hospital's accounts receivable, (iii) work-outs of certain of our accounts payable with our trade creditors and equipment providers, as many of these accounts are in default, and (iv) work-outs of taxes payable with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Management believes that this can be achieved by the end of 2012, while there can be no assurances that the restructuring plan will be completed on terms acceptable to us or at all.

Inflation

The healthcare industry is labor-intensive. Wages and other expenses increase during periods of inflation and when labor shortages in marketplaces occur. In addition, suppliers pass along rising costs to us in the form of higher prices. Private insurers pass along their rising costs in the form of lower reimbursement to us. Our ability to pass on these increased costs in increased rates is limited because of increasing regulatory and competitive pressures and the fact that the majority of our revenues are fee-based. Accordingly, inflationary pressures could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Recent Accounting Standards

Disclosure concerning recent accounting standards is incorporated by reference to Note 1 of our Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) contained in this Form 10-Q.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

None.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure and control procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment.

Based on the evaluation described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2012.

The material weaknesses relate to inadequate staffing within our accounting department, lack of consistent policies and procedures within our newly formed operating segments, and inadequate monitoring of controls, including our lack of an audit committee.

Planned Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weakness

To mitigate these weaknesses, we are in the process of implementing an on-going process to identify and resolve critical vacancies in an expeditious manner. We are also in the process of designing and implementing controls to correct identified internal control deficiencies and conducting ongoing evaluations to ensure all deficiencies have been identified. We believe that after a sufficient period of operation of the controls implemented to remediate the control deficiencies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal course of business. We are not involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which we are a party or to which any of our properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on us, except for the following:

Prexus

On December 4, 2009, Prexus Health Consultants, LLC and its affiliate, Prexus Health LLC (collectively, “Prexus”), sued UGH LP and Ascension Physician Solutions, LLC ("APS") in the 270th District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 2009-77474, seeking (i) $224,863 for alleged breaches of a Professional Services Agreement (the “PSA”) under which Prexus provided billing, coding and transcription services, (ii) $608,005 for alleged breaches of a Consulting Services Agreement (the “CSA”) under which Prexus provided professional management and consulting services, and (iii) lost profit damages for the remaining term of the agreements (UGH LP and APS terminated these contracts effective September 9, 2009). Prexus subsequently added additional claims seeking lost profits and other damages for alleged tortious interference of Prexus contracts. In October 2010, UGH LP and APS filed counterclaims against Prexus seeking $1,687,242 in damages caused by Prexus’ breach of the CSA.

On October 11, 2011, the trial court judge entered judgment against UGH LP for approximately $2,900,000, including $2,100,000 in lost profits. The judgment also awarded additional amounts for pre-judgment and post-judgment interest. UGH LP timely appealed the lost profits portion of the judgment and has suspended enforcement of the judgment pending the result of the appeal. We believe the appellate court is likely to reduce the amount of the judgment to $861,000 which is the amount of unpaid fees to Prexus prior to the effective date of termination. As a result, we accrued this amount plus $139,000 for attorney fees and estimated post judgment interest as of March 31, 2012, which is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Siemens

On June 29, 2010, Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. (“Siemens”) sued UGH LP in the 215th District Court of Harris County, Texas, Cause No. 2010-40305, seeking approximately $7,000,000 for alleged breaches of (i) a Master Equipment Lease Agreement dated August 1, 2006 and related agreements (the “Lease Agreements”), pursuant to which UGH LP leased certain radiology equipment and (ii) an Information Technology Agreement dated March 31, 2006 and related agreements (the “IT Agreements”) pursuant to which Siemens agreed to provide an information technology system, software and related services. On November 22, 2010 UGH LP filed counterclaims against Siemens seeking approximately $5,850,000 against Siemens for breach of contract, negligent representation and breach of warranty based on Siemens breach of the Lease Agreements and the IT Agreements. On February 28, 2011, the court signed an order granting partial summary judgment in favor of Siemens and against UGH LP as to UGH LP's liability for breach of the Lease Agreements, but not as to damages sought by Siemens.

On September 15, 2011, the parties to the Siemens litigation reached a settlement of the pending litigation. As part of the settlement, UGH LP agreed to pay Siemens an aggregate of $4,850,000 over a period of 20 months beginning in October 2011 through May 2013. We will have an on-going relationship with Siemens. The outstanding balance of this settlement was 2,753,232 and $3,451,555 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

UGH LP is currently in a dispute with Siemens regarding the settlement agreement entered into on September 15, 2011. Specifically UGH LP disputes the entry of the agreed judgment securing the settlement as a result of an alleged breach of the settlement agreement. UGH LP has filed a timely appeal and suspended enforcement of the agreement judgment pending such appeal.
