However, delays in cash collections, lower revenue than anticipated, unforeseen expenditures, or our inability to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing funds under the Keep Well Agreement could impact our expectations.
In addition to revenue from business operations, our primary sourceamount of capital is the amount available under the Keep Well Agreement. We may also be able to raise capital through equity financing, however, when we can effect such sales and the amount of shares we can sellraised depends on a variety of factors, to be determined by us from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and our determination as to the appropriate sources of funding for our operations.

Regardless of our success in raising additional capital, we expect our cash on hand and the remaining $6.0 million to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement will be sufficient to meet our obligations for at least the next 12 months from the date these financial statements are released.

The amendments in ASU 2021-08 require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. The amendments in ASU 2021-08, however, do not affect the accounting for other assets or liabilities that may arise from revenue contracts with customers in accordance with Topic 606, such as refund liabilities, or in a business combination, such as customer-related intangible assets and contract-based intangible assets. ASU 2021-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

Keep Well Agreement

On April 15, 2022, the Company entered into a Master Note Purchase Agreement (the “Original Keep Well Agreement”) with Acuitas Capital LLC (“Acuitas Capital”), an entity indirectly wholly owned and controlled by Terren S. Peizer, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, a related party. On August 12, 2022, the Company and Acuitas Capital entered into an amendment to the Original Keep Well Agreement in connection with the appointment of a collateral agent under the Original Keep Well Agreement (the “First Amendment”). On November 19, 2022, the Company and Acuitas Capital entered into a further amendment to the Original Keep Well Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment (the “Second Amendment”), and on December 30, 2022, the Company and Acuitas Capital entered into a further amendment to the Original Keep Well Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment and the Second Amendment (the “Third Amendment”). The Company refers to the Original Keep Well Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, the Second Amendment and the Third Amendment, as the “Keep Well Agreement” and to Acuitas Capital, together with any of its transferees or affiliates under the Keep Well Agreement, as “Acuitas.”

The Original Keep Well Agreement

Under the terms of the Original Keep Well Agreement, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent (some of which are described below), the Company could borrow from Acuitas up to $25.0 million, and in connection with each such borrowing, the Company agreed to issue to Acuitas a senior secured note (each, an “Original Keep Well Note”) with a principal amount equal to the amount borrowed. Subject to obtaining approval of the Company’s stockholders as required by applicable Nasdaq listing rules, which approval was obtained at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders held on August 29, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders”), in connection with each Original Keep Well Note issued by the Company, the Company agreed to issue to Acuitas a warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (each, an “Original Keep Well Warrant”). The number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying each Original Keep Well Warrant was equal to (y) the product of the principal amount of the applicable Keep Well Note and 20% divided by (z) the exercise price of the applicable Original Keep Well Warrant, which was $1.69 per share, the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the time the parties entered into the Original Keep Well Agreement. The maturity date of the Original Keep Well Notes was September 1, 2023.

The conditions precedent to the Company’s ability to borrow, and Acuitas’ obligation to lend, under the Original Keep Well Agreement included that (x) the Company have used best efforts to obtain sufficient financing from a third party for the Company to pay and discharge, when due and payable, its obligations, (y) the Company be unable despite its best efforts to obtain such financing from a third party on reasonably acceptable terms, and (z) (1) absent obtaining the funds requested by the Company to borrow under the Original Keep Well Agreement, the Company would not have sufficient unrestricted cash to pay and discharge

all of its obligations then due or scheduled to become due within the 30 days following the date of the borrowing request, and (2) there be no conditions or events that, when considered in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through August 15, 2023 (the “Funding Condition”).

In connection with entering into the Original Keep Well Agreement, subject to obtaining approval of the Company’s stockholders as required by applicable Nasdaq listing rules, which approval was obtained at the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company agreed to issue 739,645 shares of its common stock to Acuitas (or an entity affiliated with Acuitas, as designated by Acuitas) (the “Original Commitment Shares”). The Original Commitment Shares were issued to Acuitas in September 2022.

The Second Amendment and the Third Amendment

Below is a summary of certain amendments effected by the Second Amendment and the Third Amendment (as indicated):

the maturity date of the Original Keep Well Notes (and of any other secured notes issued under the Keep Well Agreement) was extended from September 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024, subject to acceleration for certain customary events of default, including for failure to make payments when due, breaches by the Company of certain covenants and representations in the Keep Well Agreement, defaults by the Company under other agreements related to indebtedness, the Company’s bankruptcy or dissolution, and a change of control of the Company;
the remaining amount available to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement was increased from $10.7 million to $14.0 million and the provision that previously reduced the amount available to be borrowed by the net proceeds the Company received from equity financings was eliminated;
the funding structure was changed from borrowings as needed from time to time at the election of the Company, to the Company agreeing to borrow, and Acuitas agreeing to lend, subject to the conditions in the Keep Well Agreement (which conditions were also amended as described below), the entire remaining amount of $14.0 million, to be funded as follows: $4.0 million in each of January (which was borrowed on January 5, 2023), March (which was borrowed on March 6, 2023) and June 2023, and $2.0 million in September 2023;
many of the conditions precedent to the Company’s ability to borrow, and Acuitas’ obligation to lend, were eliminated, including the Funding Condition;
the Company’s obligation to pay accrued interest on a monthly basis was eliminated, and instead accrued interest will be added to the principal amount of the applicable Original Keep Well Note (and of any other secured note issued under the Keep Well Agreement);
the financial covenant that the Company’s consolidated recurring revenue be at least $15.0 million was reduced to $11.0 million, however, the satisfaction of such covenant as a condition to funding was eliminated, and certain other affirmative and negative covenants of the Company, the satisfaction of which were conditions to funding, were also eliminated as conditions to funding; and
as provided in the Third Amendment, (a) the minimum conversion price of the Keep Well Notes (as discussed below) and (b) the minimum dollar amount to which the denominator will be reduced for purposes of calculating the warrant coverage on future borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement (as discussed below), will be $0.15 (subject to adjustment for stock splits or other recapitalizations that affect all common stockholders proportionately).

Conversion of Keep Well Notes

Following approval of the Company’s stockholders obtained at a special meeting of stockholders held in February 2023 (the “2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders”), Acuitas, at its option, has the right to convert the entire principal amount of the secured notes issued under the Keep Well Agreement, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) $0.40 per share and (ii) the greater of (a) the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the applicable conversion date and (b) $0.15 (the “Conversion Right”). The $0.40 and $0.15 referenced in the preceding sentence are subject to adjustment for stock splits and similar corporate actions.

Each Original Keep Well Note outstanding as of the date of stockholder approval was deemed to be amended to contain the Conversion Right. The Company refers to such Original Keep Well Notes, as so amended, and to all other secured notes issued under the Keep Well Agreement, as the “Keep Well Notes.”

In addition, in connection with the conversion of the principal amount of any Keep Well Note and/or accrued interest thereon into shares of the Company’s common stock (as described above), the Company will issue to Acuitas a five-year warrant to purchase

Increase in Warrant Coverage

Following approval of the Company’s stockholders obtained at the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders, the exercise price of the warrants issued under the Keep Well Agreement (both the Original Keep Well Warrants outstanding as of the date of the Second Amendment and those issued thereafter) was reduced and to warrant coverage on all previous and future borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement was increased as follows:

the exercise price of the warrants outstanding at the time of the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders was reduced to $0.45 per share, which was the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) of the Company’s common stock immediately preceding the time the parties entered into the Second Amendment, and which is subject to future adjustment as described below;
the number of shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the warrants outstanding at the time of the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders (i.e., 1,775,148 shares) was increased to the number of shares that would have been subject to such warrants if the warrant coverage was equal to 100% of the amount borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement in respect of which the applicable Keep Well Warrant was issued (instead of 20%) divided by $0.45 (i.e., 33,333,333 shares, or an additional 31,558,185 shares);
the warrant coverage on borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement after the date of the Second Amendment was increased to a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to (x) 100% of the amount borrowed (instead of 20% of such amount) divided by (y) $0.45 (the “Warrant Coverage Denominator”), subject to future adjustment as described below, and each warrant issued after the date of the Second Amendment has an exercise price equal to $0.45 per share, subject to future adjustment as described below;
if the reverse stock split that was also approved at the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders is effected in the future, then:
the exercise price of each warrant issued pursuant to the Keep Well Agreement that is outstanding as of the effective time of the reverse stock split will be reduced to the lesser of (i) the volume-weighted average price of the Company’s common stock over the five trading days beginning on the trading day that commences immediately after the effective time of the reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split Price”) and (ii) the exercise price after giving effect to the adjustment thereto as a result of the reverse stock split (the lesser of (i) and (ii), the “Post-Stock Split Price”), subject to further reduction as described in the bullet immediately below; and
the Warrant Coverage Denominator will be reduced to the greater of $0.15 (adjusted for the reverse stock split) and the Post-Stock Split Price, subject to further reduction as described in the bullet immediately below; and
upon the occurrence of the final funding under the Keep Well Agreement (the date on when such final funding occurs, the “Final Funding Date”):
the exercise price of each warrant issued pursuant to the Keep Well Agreement that is outstanding as of the Final Funding Date will be reduced to (i) if the Final Funding Date occurs at any time prior to the time the Reverse Stock Split Price is determined, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the Final Funding Date (the “Final Funding Date Price”), or (ii) if the Final Funding Date occurs at any time from and after the time the Reverse Stock Split Price is determined, the lesser of (x) the Post-Stock Split Price and (y) the Final Funding Date Price; and
the Warrant Coverage Denominator will be reduced to the lesser of (i) if the Final Funding Date occurs at any time prior to the time the Reverse Stock Split Price is determined, the greater of (a) $0.15 (subject to adjustment for stock splits and the like, including the reverse stock split) and (b) the Final Funding Date Price, or (ii) if the Final Funding Date occurs at any time from and after the time the Reverse Stock Split Price is determined, the greater of (a) $0.15 (subject to adjustment for stock splits and the like, including the reverse stock split) and (b) the lesser of (x) the Post-Stock Split Price and (y) the Final Funding Date Price.


As a result of approvals obtained at the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders, the Company issued to the holder of each warrant issued under the Keep Well Agreement outstanding as of the date of such approval, in exchange for such warrant, a new warrant

Borrowings Under the Keep Well Agreement

In February 2023, as a result of approvals obtained at the 2023 Special Meeting of Stockholders relating to the terms provided for in the Second Amendment, as described above, the Company determined that terms of the Keep Well Agreement as amended by the Second Amendment is substantially different from the terms in the Original Keep Well Agreement and that extinguishment of the senior secured notes issued under the Original Keep Well Agreement and recognition of a new debt instrument for the senior secured notes under the Original Keep Well Agreement as amended by the Second Amendment is appropriate. As such, in February 2023, the Company recorded the extinguishment of the senior secured notes under the Original Keep Well Agreement, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.2 million, which was recorded as part of additional paid in capital since the debt transaction is with Acuitas, a significant shareholder. The new debt instrument includes an embedded conversion feature, as described above, which was accounted for in accordance with ASU 2020-06, "Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity," which the Company adopted on January 1, 2022, and accordingly the Company did not

separately present such embedded conversion feature in equity but rather accounted for the convertible debt wholly as debt. The Company also assessed and determined that the Keep Well Warrants qualified for equity classification and applied the relative fair value method to allocate proceeds from the debt issuance to the Keep Well Warrants. The Company incurred $0.3 million of debt issuance costs related to the Second Amendment. The fair value of the Keep Well Warrants and new debt issuance costs are recorded as part of debt discount and accreted using the effective interest method over the contractual term of the debt.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company borrowed a total of $19.0 million under the Keep Well Agreement. Each borrowing was evidenced with the issuance of a Keep Well Note, which will accrue interest based on the adjusted term SOFR for each interest period. At March 31, 2023, the Company had a total of $1.4 million of accrued paid-in-kind interest, of which $0.8 million related to the three months ended March 31, 2023, related to the Keep Well Notes, and the effective weighted average interest rate for the Keep Well Notes was 20.34%. At March 31, 2023, $6.0 million remained to be funded under the Keep Well Agreement: $4.0 million in June 2023 and $2.0 million in September 2023.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level I) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level III). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level InputInput Definition
Level IInputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level IIInputs, other than quoted prices included in Level I, that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level IIIUnobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.
The following tables summarize fair value measurements by level for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of the periods presented (in thousands):

Note 12. Variable Interest Entities
Generally, an entity is defined as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under current accounting rules if it either lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or it is structured such that the holders of the voting rights do not substantively participate in the gains and losses of the entity. When determining whether an entity that meets the definition of a business, qualifies for a scope exception from applying VIE guidance, the Company considers whether: (i) it has participated significantly in the design of the entity, (ii) it has provided more than half of the total financial support to the entity, and (iii) substantially all of the activities of the VIE are conducted on its behalf. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, the party that has the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economics of the VIE and has the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The primary beneficiary assessment must be re-evaluated on an ongoing basis.
As discussed under the heading Management Services Agreements (“MSA”) below, the Company has an MSA with a Texas nonprofit health organization (“TIH”) and a California Professional Corporation (“CIH”). Under the MSAs, the equity owners of TIH and CIH have only a nominal equity investment at risk, and the Company absorbs or receives a majority of the entity’s expected losses or benefits. The Company participates significantly in the design of these MSAs. The Company also agrees to provide working capital loans to allow for TIH and CIH to fund their day to day obligations. Substantially all of the activities of

(unaudited)
TIH and CIH, including its decision making and approvals are conducted for its benefit, as evidenced by the fact that (i) the operations of TIH and CIH are conducted primarily using the Company's licensed network of providers and (ii) under the MSA, the Company agrees to provide and perform all non-medical management and administrative services for the entities. Payment of the Company's management fee by TIH and CIH is subordinate to payments of the other obligations of TIH and CIH, and repayment of the working capital loans is not guaranteed by the equity owner of the affiliated medical group or other third party. Creditors of TIH and CIH do not have recourse to the Company's general credit.
Based on the design of the entity and the lack of sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional working capital loans, the Company has determined that TIH and CIH are VIEs. The Company, as the primary beneficiary, is required to consolidate the VIE entities as it has power and potentially significant interests in the entities. Accordingly, the Company is required to consolidate the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the managed treatment centers.
Management Services Agreements
In April 2018, the Company executed an MSA with TIH and in July 2018, the Company executed an MSA with CIH. Under the MSAs, the Company licenses to TIH and CIH the right to use its proprietary treatment programs and related trademarks, and provides all required day-to-day business management services, including, but not limited to:

general administrative support services;
information systems;
recordkeeping;
billing and collection; and
obtaining and maintaining all federal, state and local licenses, certifications and regulatory permits.
All clinical matters relating to the operation of TIH and CIH and the performance of clinical services through the network of providers shall be the sole and exclusive responsibility of the TIH and CIH Board free of any control or direction from the Company.
TIH pays the Company a monthly fee equal to the aggregate amount of (a) its costs of providing management services (including reasonable overhead allocated to the delivery of its services and including salaries, rent, equipment, and tenant improvements incurred for the benefit of the medical group, provided that any capitalized costs will be amortized over a five-year period), (b) 10%-15% of the foregoing costs, and (c) any performance bonus amount, as determined by TIH at its sole discretion.
CIH pays the Company a monthly fee equal to the aggregate amount of (a) its costs of providing management services (including reasonable overhead allocated to the delivery of its services and including salaries, rent, equipment, and tenant improvements incurred for the benefit of the entity, provided that any capitalized costs will be amortized over a five-year period), and (b) any performance bonus amount, as determined by CIH at its sole discretion.

On March 3, 2021, a purported securities class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, entitled Farhar v. Ontrak, Inc., Case No. 2:21-cv-01987. On March 19, 2021, another similar lawsuit was filed in the same court, entitled Yildrim v. Ontrak, Inc., Case No. 2:21-cv-02460. On July 14, 2021, the Court consolidated the two actions under the Farhar case (“Consolidated Class Action”), appointed Ibinabo Dick as lead plaintiff, and the Rosen Law Firm as lead counsel. On August 13, 2021, lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint. In the Consolidated Amended Complaint, lead plaintiff, purportedly on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of Ontrak securities from August 5, 2020 through February

(unaudited)
26, 2021, alleges that the Company and Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne and Curtis Medeiros, violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78j(b), 78t(a), and Rule 10b-5, 17 C.F.R. § 240.10b-5, promulgated thereunder, by intentionally or recklessly making false and misleading statements and omissions in various press releases, SEC filings and conference calls with investors on August 5, 2020 and November 5, 2020. Specifically, the Consolidated Amended Complaint alleges that the Company was inappropriately billing its largest customer, Aetna, causing Aetna to, in May 2020, shut off its data feed to Ontrak, and, in July 2020, require Ontrak to complete a Corrective Action Plan (“CAP”). Lead plaintiff alleges that defendants: (1) misrepresented to investors that the data feed was shut off in July 2020, and that it was part of Aetna’s standard compliance review of all of its vendors; (2) failed to disclose to investors that Aetna had issued the CAP; and (3) failed to disclose to investors that Ontrak was engaging in inappropriate billing practices. Lead plaintiff seeks certification of a class and monetary damages in an indeterminate amount. On September 13, 2021, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Complaint for failure to state a claim under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) and 9(b) and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78u-4, et seq. The motion is fully briefed and has beenwas taken under submission, with no oral argument. Prior to any ruling being issued on the motion to dismiss, on March 29, 2023, lead plaintiff filed a Second Amended Complaint. The Second Amended Complaint (1) adds Jonathan Mayhew as a defendant; (2) expands the purported class period to August 5, 2020 through August 19, 2021; and (3) now includes allegations that the defendants additionally intentionally or recklessly made false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s relationship with its then-second largest customer, Cigna, in various press releases, SEC filings and conference calls with investors on May 6, 2021 and August 5, 2021. Pursuant to the Court’ scheduling order, the Company’s response to the Second Amended Complaint is due on or before May 15, 2023. The Company believes that the allegations lack merit and intends to defend against the action vigorously.

On August 6, 2021, a purported stockholder derivative complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, entitled Aptor v. Peizer, Case No. 2:21-cv-06371, alleging breach of fiduciary duty on behalf of the
26

Company against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo and Katherine Quinn, and contribution against Terren S. Peizer and Brandon H. LaVerne. On October 6, 2021, a similar shareholder derivative action was filed in the same Court, entitled Anderson v. Peizer, Case No. 2:21-cv-07998, for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, unjust enrichment, gross mismanagement and waste of corporate assets against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Curtis Medeiros, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Edward Zecchini, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo, and Katherine Quinn, and contribution against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne and Curtis Medeiros. On December 1, 2021, a similar shareholder derivative action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, entitled Vega v. Peizer, Case No. 1:21-cv-01701, for violation of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and waste of corporate assets against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Curtis Medeiros, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Edward Zecchini, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo, and Katherine Quinn. In these actions, plaintiffs allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by allowing or causing the Company to violate the federal securities laws as alleged in the Consolidated Class Action discussed above. The plaintiffs seek damages (and contribution from the officers) in an indeterminate amount. On December 7, 2021, the Court in the Central District of California consolidated the two Central District of California actions under the Aptor case caption and number (the "Consolidated Derivative Action"), stayed the action pending a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action and ordered plaintiffs to file a consolidated amended complaint within fourteen (14) days of a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action. On February 7, 2022, the Court in the District of Delaware extended the deadline for defendants to respond to the complaint in the Vega action to April 8, 2022. On March 21, 2022 the Court in the District of Delaware granted plaintiff’s unopposed motion to transfer the case to the United States District Court for Central District of California in the interest of judicial efficiency due to the Consolidated Class Action and Consolidated Derivative Action already pending in that district, and that same day the case was transferred into the United States District Court for Central District of California and given the new Case No. 2:22-cv-01873-CAS-AS. On April 11, 2022, the Court stayed the action pending a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action and ordered plaintiffs to inform defendants regarding their intention to amend their initial complaint within thirty (30) days of said ruling. Although all of the claims asserted in these actions purport to seek recovery on behalf of the Company, the Company will incur certain expenses due to indemnification and advancement obligations with respect to the defendants. The Company understands that defendants believe these actions are without merit and intend to defend themselves vigorously.

On February 28, 2022, a purported securities class action was filed in the Superior Court of California for Los Angeles County, entitled Braun v. Ontrak, Inc., et al., Case No. 22STCV07174. The plaintiff filed this action purportedly on behalf of a putative class of all purchasers of the 9.50% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Preferred stock”) of Ontrak pursuant to Registration Statements and Prospectuses issued in connection with Ontrak’s August 21, 2020 initial public stock offering, its September 2020 through December 2020 “at market” offering, and its December 16, 2020 follow-on stock offering (collectively, the “Offerings”). The plaintiff brings this action against the Company; its officers: Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, and Christopher Shirley; its board members: Richard A. Berman, Sharon Gabrielson, Gustavo Giraldo, Katherine B. Quinn, Robert Rebak, Diane Seloff, Michael Sherman, and Edward Zecchini; and the investment banking firms that acted as underwriters for the Offerings: B. Riley Securities, Inc., Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc., William Blair & Company, LLC, Aegis Capital Corp., Insperex LLC (f/k/a Incapital LLC), The Benchmark Company, LLC, Boenning & Scatteredgood, Inc., Colliers Securities, LLC, Kingswood Capital Markets, and ThinkEquity.ThinkEquity (the "Underwriters"). The plaintiff asserts three causes of action alleging that Ontrak violated § 11, §

12(a)(2), and § 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, respectively, (1) by failing to disclose facts required to be disclosed under SEC Regulation S-K items 105 and 303 – that Aetna had turned off the data feed of customer records to Ontrak citing dissatisfaction with the Company’s value proposition and billing practices and thereafter submitted a CAP to which Ontrak’s senior executives were unable to effectively respond to;respond; and (2) by issuing allegedly false or misleading statements in its Registration Statements and Prospectuses: (a) regarding Ontrak’s growing customer base; (b) regarding its ability to scale its operations; (c) that revenue from a limited number of its customers would continue; (d) that its services are provided to customers continuously; (e) that revenue increases were attributable to continued expansion of the Ontrak program; and (f) regarding the healthcare experience of its executives. The plaintiff seeks damages in an indeterminate amount. On July 7, 2022, the defendants filed demurrers to the complaint. On October 4, 2022, the Court issued its ruling, allowing the case to proceed but with a narrowed scope. Specifically, of the six alleged misleading statements, only two remain (that Ontrak had a growing “growing customer base” and that Ontrak’s revenue growth was attributed to “[t]he continued expansion of [its] Ontrak program with [its] existing health plan customers”). The Court sustained the Company’s demurrer to the second cause of action, for violation of Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, with leave to amend. The Company believes that the remaining allegations lack merit and intends to defend against the action vigorously.

On February 3, 2022, a stockholder of the Company made a demand for inspection of books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, in which the stockholder alleged that (a) disclosures in advance of a meeting of stockholders scheduled for March 2022 were inadequate and (b) certain sales of Ontrak stock by Terren S. Peizer were suspiciously timed. In response to the letter, the Company issued supplemental disclosures in advance of the meeting of stockholders and made certain revisions to its insider trading policy. On August, 2, 2022, the parties executed a settlement agreement, in which the stockholder agreed that its demands were met, and Ontrak agreed to pay the stockholder’s attorneys’ fees of $75,000. That amount has been paid in full.

Keep Well Agreement

On April 15, 2022, we entered into a Master Note Purchase Agreement with Acuitas Capital, LLC ("Acuitas"), an entity indirectly wholly owned and controlled by Terren S.Mr. Peizer the Company's Executive Chairman and largest stockholder, and on November 19, 2022, we and Acuitas entered into an amendment to that agreement (the “Second Amendment,” and the Master Note Purchase Agreement as amended to date, the “Keep Well Agreement”). In connection with each borrowing under the Keep Well Agreement, we are required to issue a senior secured note for the amount borrowed (each such note a "Keep Well Note") to Acuitas or an entity affiliated with it, which accrues interest based on a variable rate based on the 30 day tenor Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a corresponding applicable margin (the "adjusted term SOFR") and are due on June 30, 2024, subject to acceleration for customary events of default, including for failure to make payments when due, breaches by us of certain covenants and representations in the Keep Well Agreement, defaults by us under other agreements related to indebtedness, our bankruptcy or dissolution, and a change of control.

At September 30, 2022, the amount available to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement was approximately $10.7 million, which reflects the reduction in the total amount available to be borrowed resulting from the $3.3 million of net proceeds we raised in the equity offering discussed below. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the $3.3 million reduction was reversed, such that amount available to be borrowed was increased to $14.0 million, and which will be borrowed as follows: $4.0 million in each of January, March and June 2023 and $2.0 million in September 2023.

Also, we agreed to issue to the Holder, beginning March 31, 2022 and until the earlier of (i) date the 2024 Notes have been paid in full and (ii) October 31, 2022, additional warrants (each a “Ticking Warrant” and together with the Amendment Warrant, the “Warrants”), having the same terms as the Amendment Warrant, to purchase a number of shares of our common stock equal to $47,500, to be calculated based on the volume weighted average trading price of our common stock during the five (5) trading day period immediately preceding the date such Ticking Warrant is issued, not to exceed 7% of the outstanding shares of our common stock on the date of the Eighth Amendment.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our ability
We generate revenues from the services we provide to fund ongoing operations is dependent on several factors.commercial (employer funded), managed Medicare Advantage, managed Medicaid and dual eligible (Medicare and Medicaid) populations. We also generate revenues from the mental health and wellbeing support services we provide to members of employer customers under our LifeDojo wellbeing solution. We aim to increase the number of members that are eligible for our solutions by signing new contracts and identifying more eligible members inwithin customers with whom we have existing contracts. Additionally, our funding is dependent upon the success of management’s plan to increase revenue and control expenses. We provide services to commercial (employer funded), managed Medicare Advantage, managed Medicaid and duel eligible (Medicare and Medicaid) populations. We also provide mental health and wellbeing support to members of employer customers under our LifeDojo wellbeing solution.

We have incurred significant net losses and negative operating cash flows since our inception, and we expect to continue to incur net losses and negative operating cash flow, in part due to the negative impact on our operations by customer terminations. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, our cash and restricted cash was $11.9$12.1 million and we had working capital of approximately $11.5$7.2 million. For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, our average monthly cash flow from operations burn rate was $2.5$1.7 million. Based onThroughout 2022 and in March 2023, as part of our cash and restricted cash levels, expected revenue from business operations, and after taking into account the amount availablecontinued cost saving measures to borrow under the Keep Well Agreement, we expect to have sufficient cash to coverreduce our operating expenses through at leastcosts and to better align with our
35


previously stated strategic initiatives, we implemented a number of reduction in workforce and vendor cost optimization plans. We expect the next twelve months followingfull effect of these plans to be realized during the dateremainder of 2023 and beyond, including a decrease in our financial statementsoperating costs and an improvement in this report are issued. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we had $14 million of available borrowing capacity under the Keep Well Agreement. See Note 10 and Note 14 of the Notesour average monthly cash flow from operations. The cost optimization plans were necessary to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information about the Keep Well Agreement. However, delays in cash collections, lower revenue than anticipated, unforeseen expenditures, orright size our inability to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing funds under the Keep Well Agreement could impactbusiness commensurate with our expectation.current customer base.

In addition to revenue from business operations, our primary source of working capital is borrowings under the amount availableKeep Well Agreement. As of March 31, 2023, $6.0 million remained to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement. We may also be able to raise capital through equity financing,financings, however, when we can effectaffect such salesfinancings and the amount of shareshow much capital we can sellraise depends on a variety of factors, to be determined by us from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and our determination as to the appropriate sources of funding for our operations.

Regardless of our success in raising additional capital, we expect our cash on hand and the remaining $6.0 million to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement will be sufficient to meet our obligations for at least the next 12 months from the date the financial statements in this report are released.

Management plans to continue to execute on its strategy by (i) exploring other sources of capital with either debt or equity financing for on-goingfuture liquidity needs; (ii) continuing to manage operating costs by strategically pursuing cost optimization initiatives; and (iii) continuing to pursue executing our growth strategy by improving our marketing techniques and implementing new features to increase customer engagement, adding new members and securing new customer contracts.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy the conditions precedent to future borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement or that other capital will be available when needed or that, if available, it will be obtained on terms favorable to us and our stockholders, that we will be successful in implementing cost optimization initiatives, or that we will be successful in executing our growth strategy. In addition, ourthe Keep Well Agreement contains various financial and other covenants, and any unanticipated non-compliance with those covenants could prevent us from borrowing additional amounts under the Keep Well Agreement and/or result in an acceleration of the repayment of the amounts outstanding loan balance, and our ability to borrow funds under the Keep Well Agreement is subject to conditions precedent being satisfied, and we may not satisfy such conditions precedent if and when we need to borrow funds thereunder. Furthermore, equity or debt financings may have a dilutive effect on the holdings of our existing stockholders, and debt financings may subject us to restrictive covenants, operational restrictions and security interests in our assets. See the risk factors entitled, “We expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses and may be unable to obtain additional financing,” and “We will need additional funding, and we cannot guarantee that we will satisfy the conditions precedent for the $6.0 million that remains to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement or find adequate sources of capital in the future,” in Item 1A.

As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,report, we were not a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position, except for the following:
Loss Contingencies
On March 3, 2021, a purported securities class action was filedlegal proceedings discussed in Note 13, “Commitments and Contingencies” in the United States District Court for the Central DistrictNotes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in Part I, Item 1 of California, entitled Farhar v. Ontrak, Inc., Case No. 2:21-cv-01987. On March 19, 2021, another similar lawsuit was filed in the same court, entitled Yildrim v. Ontrak, Inc., Case No. 2:21-cv-02460. On July 14, 2021, the Court consolidated the two actions under the Farhar case (“Consolidated Class Action”), appointed Ibinabo Dick as lead plaintiff, and the Rosen Law Firm as lead counsel. On August 13, 2021, lead plaintiff filed a consolidated amended complaint. In the Consolidated Amended Complaint, lead plaintiff, purportedly on behalf of a putative class of purchasers of Ontrak securities from August 5, 2020 through February 26, 2021, alleges that the Company and Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne and Curtis Medeiros, violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78j(b), 78t(a), and Rule 10b-5, 17 C.F.R. § 240.10b-5, promulgated thereunder,this report, which is incorporated by intentionally or recklessly making false and misleading statements and omissions in various press releases, SEC filings and conference calls with investors on August 5, 2020 and November 5, 2020. Specifically, the Consolidated Amended Complaint alleges that the Company was inappropriately billing its largest customer, Aetna, causing Aetna to, in May 2020, shut off its data feed to Ontrak, and, in July 2020, require Ontrak to complete a Corrective Action Plan (“CAP”). Lead plaintiff alleges that defendants: (1) misrepresented to investors that the data feed was shut off in July 2020, and that it was part of Aetna’s standard compliance review of all of its vendors; (2) failed to disclose to investors that Aetna had issued the CAP; and (3) failed to disclose to investors that Ontrak was engaging in inappropriate billing practices. Lead plaintiff seeks certification of a class and monetary damages in an indeterminate amount. On September 13, 2021, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Complaint for failure to state a claim under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) and 9(b) and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78u-4, et seq. The motion is fully briefed and has been taken under submission, with no oral argument. The Company believes that the allegations lack merit and intends to defend against the action vigorously.

On August 6, 2021, a purported stockholder derivative complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, entitled Aptor v. Peizer, Case No. 2:21-cv-06371, alleging breach of fiduciary duty on behalf of the Company against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo and Katherine Quinn, and contribution against Terren S. Peizer and Brandon H. LaVerne. On October 6, 2021, a similar shareholder derivative action was filed in the same Court, entitled Anderson v. Peizer, Case No. 2:21-cv-07998, for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, unjust enrichment, gross mismanagement and waste of corporate assets against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Curtis Medeiros, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Edward Zecchini, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo, and Katherine Quinn, and contribution against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne and Curtis Medeiros. On December 1, 2021, a similar shareholder derivative action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, entitled Vega v. Peizer, Case No. 1:21-cv-01701, for violation of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and waste of corporate assets against Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, Curtis Medeiros, Richard A. Berman, Michael Sherman, Edward Zecchini, Diane Seloff, Robert Rebak, Gustavo Giraldo, and Katherine Quinn. In these actions, plaintiffs allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by allowing or causing the Company to violate the federal securities laws as alleged in the Consolidated Class Action discussed above. The plaintiffs seek damages (and contribution from the officers) in an indeterminate amount. On December 7, 2021, the Court in the Central District of California consolidated the two Central District of California actions under the Aptor case caption and number (the "Consolidated Derivative
39


Action"), stayed the action pending a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action and ordered plaintiffs to file a consolidated amended complaint within fourteen (14) days of a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action. On February 7, 2022, the Court in the District of Delaware extended the deadline for defendants to respond to the complaint in the Vega action to April 8, 2022. On March 21, 2022 the Court in the District of Delaware granted plaintiff’s unopposed motion to transfer the case to the United States District Court for Central District of California in the interest of judicial efficiency due to the Consolidated Class Action and Consolidated Derivative Action already pending in that district, and that same day the case was transferred into the United States District Court for Central District of California and given the new Case No. 2:22-cv-01873-CAS-AS.On April 11, 2022, the Court stayed the action pending a ruling on the Motion to Dismiss in the Consolidated Class Action and ordered plaintiffs to inform defendants regarding their intention to amend their initial complaint within thirty (30) days of said ruling. Although all of the claims asserted in these actions purport to seek recovery on behalf of the Company, the Company will incur certain expenses due to indemnification and advancement obligations with respect to the defendants. The Company understands that defendants believe these actions are without merit and intend to defend themselves vigorously.

On February 28, 2022, a purported securities class action was filed in the Superior Court of California for Los Angeles County, entitled Braun v. Ontrak, Inc., et al., Case No. 22STCV07174. The plaintiff filed this action purportedly on behalf of a putative class of all purchasers of the 9.50% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Preferred stock”) of Ontrak pursuant to Registration Statements and Prospectuses issued in connection with Ontrak’s August 21, 2020 initial public stock offering, its September 2020 through December 2020 “at market” offering, and its December 16, 2020 follow-on stock offering (collectively, the “Offerings”). The plaintiff brings this action against the Company; its officers: Terren S. Peizer, Brandon H. LaVerne, and Christopher Shirley; its board members: Richard A. Berman, Sharon Gabrielson, Gustavo Giraldo, Katherine B. Quinn, Robert Rebak, Diane Seloff, Michael Sherman, and Edward Zecchini; and the investment banking firms that acted as underwriters for the Offerings: B. Riley Securities, Inc., Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc., William Blair & Company, LLC, Aegis Capital Corp., Insperex LLC (f/k/a Incapital LLC), The Benchmark Company, LLC, Boenning & Scatteredgood, Inc., Colliers Securities, LLC, Kingswood Capital Markets, and ThinkEquity. The plaintiff asserts three causes of action alleging that Ontrak violated § 11, § 12(a)(2), and § 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, respectively, (1) by failing to disclose facts required to be disclosed under SEC Regulation S-K items 105 and 303 – that Aetna had turned off the data feed of customer records to Ontrak citing dissatisfaction with the Company’s value proposition and billing practices and thereafter submitted a CAP to which Ontrak’s senior executives were unable to effectively respond to; and (2) by issuing allegedly false or misleading statements in its Registration Statements and Prospectuses: (a) regarding Ontrak’s growing customer base; (b) regarding its ability to scale its operations; (c) that revenue from a limited number of its customers would continue; (d) that its services are provided to customers continuously; (e) that revenue increases were attributable to continued expansion of the Ontrak program; and (f) regarding the healthcare experience of its executives. The plaintiff seeks damages in an indeterminate amount. On July 7, 2022, the defendants filed demurrers to the complaint. On October 4, 2022, the Court issued its ruling, allowing the case to proceed but with a narrowed scope. Specifically, of the six alleged misleading statements, only two remain (that Ontrak had a growing “growing customer base” and that Ontrak’s revenue growth was attributed to “[t]he continued expansion of [its] Ontrak program with [its] existing health plan customers”). The Court sustained the Company’s demurrer to the second cause of action, for violation of Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, with leave to amend. The Company believes that the remaining allegations lack merit and intends to defend against the action vigorously.

On February 3, 2022, a stockholder of the Company made a demand for inspection of books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, in which the stockholder alleged that (a) disclosures in advance of a meeting of stockholders scheduled for March 2022 were inadequate and (b) certain sales of Ontrak stock by Terren S. Peizer were suspiciously timed. In response to the letter, the Company issued supplemental disclosures in advance of the meeting of stockholders and made certain revisions to its insider trading policy. On August, 2, 2022, the parties executed a settlement agreement, in which the stockholder agreed that its demands were met, and Ontrak agreed to pay the stockholder’s attorneys’ fees of $75,000. That amount has been paid in full.

Risk Factors

Risks related to our business

We expect to continue to incur substantial operating losses and may be unable to obtain additional financing.

We have been unprofitable since our inception in 2003. Historically, we have seen and continue to see net losses, net loss from operations and negative cash flow from operating activities as we experienced a period of rapid growth, and more recently our results have been negatively impacted by customer terminations. At September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, our cash and restricted cash was $11.9$12.1 million and we had a working capital of approximately $11.5$7.2 million. We had an average monthly cash flow from operations burn rate of approximately $2.5$1.7 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and could continue to incur negative cash flows and operating losses for the next twelve months.

We will continue to monitor liquidity, however, if we are unable to make sufficient new sales or expand existing customer contracts, we may not continue to have sufficient capital to continue to scale our operations, service our contracts and future enrollments or cover our operating expenses. Additionally, if we add more health plans than budgeted, increase the size of the outreach pool by more than we anticipate, decide to invest in new products or seek out additional growth opportunities, or in order to provide liquidity for an extended period of losses, we would consider financing these options with either a debt or equity financing for which there can be no assurance that any such financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We maywill need additional funding, and we cannot guarantee that we will satisfy the conditions precedent for borrowing fundsthe $6.0 million that remains to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement or find adequate sources of capital in the future.

We have incurred negative cash flows from operations since inception and have expended, and expect to continue to expend, substantial funds to support and grow our business. We maywill require additional funds before we are able to generate enough cash flows to fund our operations and meet our obligations.

On April 15, 2022, weWe entered into a Master Note Purchase Agreement with Acuitas Capital LLC ("Acuitas"(“Acuitas Capital” and together with its affiliates, including Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC and Terren S. Peizer, “Acuitas”), dated as of April 15, 2022, as amended on each of August 12, 2022, November 19, 2022, and December 30, 2022 (as amended, the “Keep Well Agreement”). Acuitas

Capital is our largest stockholder and an entity indirectly wholly owned and controlled by Terren S.Mr. Peizer, the Company'sour former Chief Executive ChairmanOfficer and largest stockholder, and on November 19, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the Keep Well Agreement (as amended toChairman. To date, the "Keep Well Agreement"). On July 15, 2022, we borrowed $5.0$19.0 million of the $25.0 million that we may borrow under the Keep Well Agreement and appliedAgreement. Of the proceeds therefrom to pay off in full all outstanding amounts owed under that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 24, 2019, by and among us, as issuer, certain of our subsidiaries, as guarantors, the purchasers party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Specialty Lending Group, L.P., as collateral agent. On September 7, 2022, we borrowedremaining $6.0 million under Keep Well Agreement to fund our working capital requirements. Under the terms of the amendment we entered into on November 19, 2022, the funding structure was changed from borrowings as needed from time to time at our election, to us agreeing tomay borrow, and Acuitas agreeing to lend, subject to the conditions in the Keep Well Agreement, the entire remaining amount of $14.0$4.0 million is to be funded as follows: $4.0 million in each of January, March and June 2023 and $2.0 million in September 2023.
One of the conditions precedent to funding is that our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), and there are no assurances that we will satisfy that condition in the future. See “
AsAcuitas Group Holdings, LLC owns approximately 40.6% of our outstanding common stock and beneficially owns approximately 85.5% of our outstanding common stock, and as a result of such ownership has the ability to substantially influence the election of directors and other matters submitted to stockholders” and “There can be no assurance that our borrowing funds undercommon stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq or, if listed, that we will be able to comply with the Keep Well Agreement, we are subjectcontinued listing standards of Nasdaq, which could limit investors’ ability to certain negative and affirmative covenantsmake transactions in our securities and subject us to otheradditional trading restrictions on our business operations.,” below. For additional information regarding the Keep Well Agreement, and the transactions related thereto, please see the discussion regarding Keepsection titled, “Keep Well AgreementAgreement” in Note 10 and Note 14 ofin the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.report.

In connection with each borrowingaddition, even if we borrow the remaining $6.0 million available under the Keep Well Agreement, Acuitas received and will receive warrantswe may need to purchase shares of our common stock, and, subject to stockholder approval, Acuitas, at its option, will have the right to convert the entire principal amount of all amounts we borrow under the Keep Well Agreement, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in whole or in part, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.40 per share and the closing price of our common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the applicable conversion date. In addition, subject to stockholder approval, in connection with any such conversion, we will issue Acuitasraise additional warrants to purchase shares of our common stock; the number of shares subject to each such warrantfunding. We do not know whether additional funding will be equalavailable on commercially acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on commercially acceptable terms, we may need to (x) 100% of the amount converted divided by (y) the conversion price then in effect, and the exercise price of each such warrant will be equal to the conversion price then in effect. Assumingdownsize, curtail program development efforts or halt our stockholders approve all the equity issuances under the Keep Well Agreement that require stockholder approvaloperations altogether.

under the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the issuance of all of the remaining warrants under Keep Well Agreement (assuming the denominator for determining the number of warrants that would be issued is 0.45) and the exercise thereof, and the conversion of the principal amount of all Keep Well Notes into shares (at a conversion price equal to $0.40 per share), the issuance of warrants in connection with such conversion and the exercise thereof, we will issue to Acuitas approximately 183 million shares of our common stock, subject to the 90% issuance cap in the Keep Well Agreement. The number of shares issuable under the Keep Well Agreement, if issued, will result in substantial dilution to our stockholders, other than Acuitas. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, such financing will result in further dilution to our stockholders. Any equity securities issued also may provide for rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock. If we raise funds by issuing debt securities, these debt securities would have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock, and the terms of the debt securities issued could impose significant restrictions on our operations in addition to those referenced above.operations.

We do not know whether additional financinghave $19.0 million in principal amount of secured debt outstanding under the Keep Well Agreement, and a default thereunder would have material adverse consequences to our financial condition, operating results, and business.

The Keep Well Agreement includes customary events of default for a first priority senior secured debt facility. In the event of default under the Keep Well Agreement, Acuitas and the collateral agent under the Keep Well Agreement would have the rights that a secured creditor with a first priority lien on a company’s assets would have, including, the right to collect, enforce or satisfy any secured obligations then owing, including by foreclosing on the collateral securing our obligations under the Keep Well Agreement (which generally comprise all of our assets), restrictions on the operation of our business would spring into effect, and Acuitas would have no obligation to fund any future borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement. A default under the Keep Well Agreement would have material adverse consequences to our financial condition, operating results, and business, and could cause us to become insolvent or enter bankruptcy proceedings, and our stockholders may lose all or a portion of their investment because of the priority of the claims of Acuitas, in its capacity as a secured creditor, on our assets. See also “Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC owns approximately 40.6% of our outstanding common stock and beneficially owns approximately 85.5% of our outstanding common stock, and as a result of such ownership has the ability to substantially influence the election of directors and other matters submitted to stockholders,” below.

The amounts we borrow under the Keep Well Agreement bear interest at a variable rate which could cause our outstanding indebtedness to increase significantly.

The amounts we borrow under the Keep Well Agreement bear interest based on the 30 day tenor Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Reference Rate, which is subject to a monthly adjustment, plus a margin specified in the Keep Well Agreement. As a result, in an increasing interest rate environment, the interest rate on the amounts we borrow under the Keep Well Agreement is subject to increase, thereby resulting in increased interest expense. The 30 day tenor Term SOFR Reference Rate has steadily increased in the past year. At March 31, 2023, we had a total of $1.4 million of accrued paid-in-kind interest related to the Keep Well Notes and the effective weighted average interest rate for the Keep Well Notes was 20.34%. Accrued interest on the principal amount of borrowings under the Keep Well Agreement is added to principal, which either we will be availablerequired to repay on commercially acceptablethe maturity date, June 30, 2024, or, if converted into shares of our common stock in accordance with the terms or at all.

See Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for more information.

We may fail to successfully manage and grow our business, which could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and business.

Continued expansion could put significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources. The need to comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC will continue to place significant demands on our financial and accounting staff,
40


financial, accounting and information systems, and our internal controls and procedures, any of which may not be adequate to support our anticipated growth. The need to comply with the state and federal healthcare, security and privacy regulation will continue to place significant demands on our staff and our policies and procedures, any of which may not be adequate to support our anticipated growth. We may not be able to effectively hire, train, retain, motivate and manage required personnel. Our failure to manage growth effectively could limit our ability to satisfy our reporting obligations, or achieve our marketing, commercialization and financial goals.

We may be unable to successfully execute on our growth initiatives, business strategies or operating plans.

We are continually executing a number of growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans designed to enhance our business. The anticipated benefits from these efforts are based on several assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Moreover, we may not be able to successfully complete these growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans and realize all of the benefits, including growth targets and cost savings, that we expect to achieve or it may be more costly to do so than we anticipate. A variety of risks could cause us not to realize some or all of the expected benefits. These risks include, among others, delays in the anticipated timing of activities related to such growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans, increased difficulty and cost in implementing these efforts, including difficulties in complying with new regulatory requirements and the incurrence of other unexpected costs associated with operating the business, failure of our products to receive sufficient market acceptance and a highly competitive, rapidly evolving marketplace. Moreover, our continued implementation of our programs may disrupt our operations and performance. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will realize the intended benefits. If, for any reason, the benefits we realize are less than our estimates or the implementation of our growth initiatives, strategies and operating plans adversely affect our operations or cost more or take longer to effectuate than we expect, or if our assumptions prove inaccurate, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Failure to effectively develop and expand our sales and marketing capabilities could harm our ability to execute our business plan, increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our program.

Our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our Ontrak program will depend to a significant extent on our ability to deploy our sales and marketing resources efficiently and our ability to drive our current sales pipeline to secure new customers and to cultivate customer and partner relationships to drive revenue growth in the next twelve months. We are focused on identifying and developing new customer opportunities and these efforts require us to invest significant financial and other resources. Our business and operating results will be harmed if our sales and marketing efforts do not generate significant increases in revenue in the next twelve months.

Our programs may not be as effective as we believe them to be, which could limit our potential revenue growth.

Our belief in the efficacy of our Ontrak solution is based on a limited experience with a relatively small number of members in comparison to the total addressable members. Such results may not be indicative of the long-term future performance of
43


treatment with our programs. If the initially indicated results cannot be successfully replicated or maintained over time, utilization of our programs could decline substantially. There are no standardized methods for measuring efficacy of programs such as ours. Even if we believe our solutions are effective, our customers could determine they are not effective by utilizing different outcome measures. In addition, even if our customers determine our solutions are effective, they may discontinue them because they determine that the aggregate cost savings are not sufficient, our programs do not have a high enough return on investment, they prefer other competitive or strategic solutions or do not believe our programs deliver other desired benefits such as clinical outcomes. Our success is dependent on our ability to enroll third-party payor members in our Ontrak solutions. Large scale outreach and enrollment efforts have not been conducted and only for limited time periods and we may not be able to achieve the anticipated enrollment rates.

Our Ontrak solution may not become widely accepted, which could limit our growth.

Our ability to achieve further marketplace acceptance for our Ontrak solution is dependent on our ability to demonstrate financial and clinical outcomes from our agreements. If we are unable to secure sufficient contracts to achieve recognition or acceptance of our Ontrak solution or if our program does not demonstrate the expected level of clinical improvement and cost savings, it is unlikely that we will be able to achieve widespread market acceptance.

Disappointing results for our solutions or failure to attain our publicly disclosed milestones could adversely affect market acceptance and have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

41


Disappointing results, later-than-expected press release announcements or termination of evaluations, pilot programs or commercial Ontrak solutions could have a material adverse effect on the commercial acceptance of our solutions, our stock price and on our results of operations. In addition, announcements regarding results, or anticipation of results, may increase volatility in our stock price. In addition to numerous upcoming milestones, from time to time we provide financial guidance and other forecasts to the market. While we believe that the assumptions underlying projections and forecasts we make publicly available are reasonable, projections and forecasts are inherently subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Any failure to achieve milestones, or to do so in a timely manner, or to achieve publicly announced guidance and forecasts, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and the price of our common stock.

We face business disruption and related risks resulting from the novel coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our business could be disrupted and materially adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, including as a result of mutations of such virus and the global spread of viral variants that may be more contagious or resistant to currently known treatments. As a result of measures imposed by the governments in affected regions, businesses and schools have been from time to time suspended due to quarantines intended to contain this outbreak and many people have been forced to work from home in those areas. As a result of the global pandemic, trade and business activities around the world have been adversely affected, international stock and commodity markets have fluctuated widely and many regions are exhibiting signs of economic recession. Several programs were enacted in different countries in efforts to alleviate rising levels of unemployment and economic dislocation created by significantly reduced levels of social and business activity, although their longer term effectiveness is still uncertain particularly in view of the spread of the contagion and related variants. We are continuously assessing our business operations and system supports and the impact COVID-19 may have on our results and financial condition, but there can be no assurance that this analysis will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business sentiment generally or in our sector in particular, or its effects on our members or outreach pool.

Our industry is highly competitive, and we may not be able to compete successfully.

The healthcare business in general, and the behavioral health treatment business in particular, are highly competitive and rapidly evolving. While we believe our products and services are in many aspects unique, we operate in highly competitive markets. We compete with other healthcare management service organizations, care management and disease management companies, including Managed Behavioral Healthcare Organizations (MBHOs), other specialty healthcare and managed care companies, and healthcare technology companies that are offering treatment and support of behavioral health on-line and on mobile devices. Most of our competitors are significantly larger and have greater financial, marketing and other resources than us. We believe that our ability to offer customers a comprehensive and integrated behavioral health solution, including the utilization of our analytical models and innovative member engagement methodologies, will enable us to compete effectively. However, there can be no assurance that we will not encounter more effective or more strategically desirable competition in the future, that we will have financial resources to continue to improve our offerings or that we will be successful improving them, which would limit our ability to maintain or increase our business.

44


Our competitors may develop and introduce new processes and products that are equal or superior to our programs in treating behavioral health conditions. Accordingly, we may be adversely affected by any new processes and products developed by our competitors.

A substantial percentage of our revenues are attributable to a few large customers, any or all of which may terminate our services at any time.

Three customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 95%97% and fivefour customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 94%95% of our total revenue for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. Three customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 93% and five customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 96% of our total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Also, twofour customers represented an aggregate of approximately 93%100% and 100%99% of our total accounts receivable as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, respectively.

On February 26, 2021, we received a termination notice from our then largest customer and working with this customer on a transition plan, we completed the participation of this customer's members in the program as of December 31, 2021. On August 18, 2021, we received a termination notice from another large customer of their intent not to continue the program past December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2021, members from these two customers have completed their participation in the program.

We expect that revenues from a limited number of customers will continue for the foreseeable future. Sales to these customers are made pursuant to agreements with flexible termination provisions, generally entitling the customer to terminate with or without cause on limited notice to us, as we have recently experienced during fiscal year 2021 as described above, and which have
42


adversely affected our business and financial condition and results. We may not be able to keep our key customers, or these customers may decrease their enrollment levels. Any substantial decrease or delay in revenues relating to one or more of our key customers would harm our business and financial condition and results. If revenues relating to current key customers cease or are reduced, we may not obtain sufficient enrollments from other customers necessary to offset any such losses or reductions.

We depend on key personnel, the loss of which could impact the ability to manage our business.

We are highly dependent on our senior management and key operating and technical personnel. The loss of the services of any member of our senior management and key operating and technical personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. We also rely on consultants and advisors to assist us in formulating our strategy.

As our company grows, we will need to hire additional employees in order to achieve our objectives. There is currently intense competition for skilled executives and employees with relevant expertise, and this competition is likely to continue. The inability to attract and retain sufficient personnel could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our key executive officers. These executive officers are at-will employees and therefore they may terminate employment with us at any time with no advance notice. We also rely on our leadership team in the areas of research and development, marketing, services and general and administrative functions. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives, which could disrupt our business. The replacement of one or more of our executive officers or other key employees would likely involve significant time and costs and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.

To continue to execute our growth strategy, we also must attract and retain highly skilled personnel. Competition is intense for qualified professionals. We may not be successful in continuing to attract and retain qualified personnel. We have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled personnel with appropriate qualifications. The pool of qualified personnel with experience working in the healthcare market is limited overall. In addition, many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have.

In addition, in making employment decisions, particularly in high-technology industries, job candidates often consider the value of the stock options or other equity instruments they are to receive in connection with their employment. Volatility in the price of our stock may, therefore, adversely affect our ability to attract or retain highly skilled personnel. Further, the requirement to expense stock options and other equity instruments may discourage us from granting the size or type of stock option or equity awards that job candidates require to join our company. Failure to attract new personnel or failure to retain and motivate our current personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
45



We are dependent on our ability to recruit, retain and develop a very large and diverse workforce. We must transform our culture in order to successfully grow our business.

Our products and services and our operations require a large number of employees. A significant number of employees have joined us in recent years as we continue to grow and expand our business. Our success is dependent on our ability to transform our culture, align our talent with our business needs, engage our employees and inspire our employees to be open to change, to innovate and to maintain member- and client-focus when delivering our services. Our business would be adversely affected if we fail to adequately plan for succession of our executives and senior management; or if we fail to effectively recruit, integrate, retain and develop key talent and/or align our talent with our business needs, in light of the current rapidly changing environment. While we have succession plans in place and we have employment arrangements with a limited number of key executives, these do not guarantee that the services of these or suitable successor executives will continue to be available to us.

Our business and growth strategy depend on our ability to maintain and expand a network of qualified healthcare providers. If we are unable to do so, our future growth and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be negatively impacted.

The success of our business is dependent upon our continued ability to maintain a network of qualified healthcare providers. In any particular market that we operate in, providers could demand higher payments or take other actions that could result in higher medical costs, less attractive service for our members or difficulty meeting regulatory or accreditation requirements. The failure to maintain or to secure new cost-effective provider contracts may result in a loss of or inability to grow our member base, higher costs, healthcare provider network disruptions, and less attractive service for our members, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, growth strategy, financial condition and results of operations.
43



We are subject to ongoing litigation and may be subject to future litigation, any of which could result in substantial liabilities that may exceed our insurance coverage.liabilities.

All significant medical treatments and procedures, including treatment utilizing our programs, involve the risk of serious injury or death. While we have not been the subject of any such claims, our business entails an inherent risk of claims for personal injuries and substantial damage awards. We cannot control whether individual physicians and therapists will apply the appropriate standard of care in determining how to treat their patients. While our agreements typically require physicians to indemnify us for their negligence, there can be no assurance they will be willing and financially able to do so if claims are made. In addition, our license agreements require us to indemnify physicians, hospitals or their affiliates for losses resulting from our negligence.

We are also subject to ongoing securities class action and stockholder derivative litigation. See Note 13, “Commitments and Contingencies” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in Part I, Item 1, included in this report. In addition, on March 1, 2023, the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) announced charges and the SEC filed a civil complaint against Mr. Peizer, our former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Board of Directors, alleging unlawful insider trading in our stock. Mr. Peizer owns and controls Acuitas Capital, our largest stockholder. See “Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC owns approximately 40.6% of our outstanding common stock and beneficially owns approximately 85.5% of our outstanding common stock, and as a result of such ownership has the ability to substantially influence the election of directors and other matters submitted to stockholders.” Neither we nor any of our other current or former directors or employees were charged by the DOJ or sued by the SEC. On November 15, 2022, we received a notification from the SEC’s Division of Enforcement that it is conducting an investigation captioned "In the Matter of Trading in the Securities of Ontrak, Inc. (HO-14340)" and issued a preservation letter as well as a subpoena for documents relating to the investigation. The notification indicates the investigation is a fact-finding inquiry for compliance with federal securities laws and should not be construed as an indication by the SEC that any violation of law has occurred, nor as a reflection upon any person, entity or security. We have been cooperating fully with the terms of the subpoena. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the DOJ or SEC proceedings, nor can we predict whether the DOJ or SEC or any other governmental authorities will initiate separate investigations or litigation, including against us. Investigations and any related legal and administrative proceedings could include a wide variety of outcomes, including the institution of administrative, civil injunctive or criminal proceedings involving the Company and/or its current or former executives and/or directors, the imposition of fines and other penalties, remedies and/or sanctions.

In addition, from time to time, we may also be involved in legal proceedings and investigations arising in the ordinary course of business, including those relating to employment matters, relationships with partners, intellectual property disputes, and other business matters.

We currently have insurance coverage for personal injury claims, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage, and errors and omissions insurance. We may not be able to maintain adequate liability insurance at acceptable costs or on favorable terms. We expect that liability insurance will be more difficult to obtain and that premiums will increase over time and as the volume of patients treated with our programs increases. In the event

We have incurred and may continue to incur significant expenses as a result of litigation we may sustain significant damagesand other legal proceedings. In addition, the results of litigation and other legal proceedings are inherently uncertain and adverse judgments or settlement expensesettlements (regardless of a claim'sclaim’s merit), in any legal disputes may result in materially adverse monetary damages or injunctive relief against us. Any claims, investigations or litigation, expenseeven if fully indemnified or insured, could damage our reputation and significant harmmake it more difficult to compete effectively or obtain adequate insurance in the future. In addition, claims, investigations or litigation may be time-consuming, costly, divert management resources, and otherwise have a material adverse effect on our reputation.business and result of operations.

If third-party payors fail to provide coverage and adequate payment rates for our solutions, our revenue and prospects for profitability will be harmed.

Our future revenue growth will depend in part upon our ability to contract with health plans and other insurance payors for our Ontrak solutions. In addition, insurance payors are increasingly attempting to contain healthcare costs, and may not cover or provide adequate payment for our programs. Adequate insurance reimbursement might not be available to enable us to realize an appropriate return on investment in research and product development, and the lack of such reimbursement could have a material adverse effect on our operations and could adversely affect our revenues and earnings.

We may not be able to achieve promised savings for our Ontrak contracts, which could result in pricing levels insufficient to cover our costs or ensure profitability.

44


Many of our Ontrak contracts are based upon anticipated or guaranteed levels of savings for our customers and achieving other operational metrics resulting in incentive fees based on savings. If we are unable to meet or exceed promised savings, achieve agreed upon operational metrics, or favorably resolve contract billing and interpretation issues with our customers, we may be required to refund from the amount of fees paid to us any difference between savings that were guaranteed and the savings, if any, which were actually achieved; or we may fail to earn incentive fees based on savings. Accordingly, during or at the end of the contract terms, we may be required to refund some or all of the fees paid for our services. This exposes us to significant risk that contracts negotiated and entered into may ultimately be unprofitable. In addition, managed care operations are
46


at risk for costs incurred to provide agreed upon services under our solution. Therefore, failure to anticipate or control costs could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

Our ability to use our net operating losses to offset future taxable income has been limited in certain cases and may be subject to certain limitations in the future.

Our federal net operating loss carryforwardscarry forwards ("NOLs") will begin to expire in 2023.have an indefinite life. These NOLs may be used to offset future taxable income, to the extent we generate any taxable income, and thereby reduce or eliminate our future federal income taxes otherwise payable. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes limitations on a corporation's ability to utilize NOLs if it experiences an ownership change as defined in Section 382. In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership of certain stockholders in the stock of a corporation by more than 50% over a three-year period. In the event that an ownership change has occurred, or were to occur, utilization of our NOLs would be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 determined by multiplying the value of our stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years. We have experienced ownership changes in the past and can continue to experience ownership changes under Section 382 as a result of events in the past or the issuance of shares of common or preferred stock, or a combination thereof. As a result of such ownership changes, the use of our NOLs, or a portion thereof, against our future taxable income may be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382, which may result in expiration of a portion of our NOLs before utilization.

In order to protect the Company’s significant NOLs, we filed an Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company containing an amendment (the “Protective Amendment”) with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 28, 2019. The Protective Amendment was approved by the Company’s stockholders by written consent dated September 24, 2019.

The Protective Amendment is designed to assist in protecting the long-term value of our accumulated NOLs by limiting certain transfers of our stock. The Protective Amendment’s transfer restrictions generally restrict any direct or indirect transfers of stock if the effect would be to increase the direct or indirect ownership of the stock by any person from less than 4.99% to 4.99% or more of the stock, or increase the percentage of the stock owned directly or indirectly by a person owning or deemed to own 4.99% or more of the stock. Any direct or indirect transfer attempted in violation of the Protective Amendment will be void as of the date of the prohibited transfer as to the purported transferee.

The Protective Amendment also requires any person attempting to become a holder of 4.99% or more of our common stock to seek the approval of our Board. This may have an unintended “anti-takeover” effect because our Board may be able to prevent any future takeover. Similarly, any limits on the amount of stock that a shareholder may own could have the effect of making it more difficult for shareholders to replace current management. Additionally, because the Protective Amendment may have the effect of restricting a shareholder’s ability to dispose of or acquire our common stock, the liquidity and market value of our common stock might suffer.

The Protective Amendment is not binding with respect to shares of stock issued prior to its adoption unless the holder of such shares has voted in favor of the Protective Amendment and the resulting transfer restriction is noted conspicuously on the certificate representing such shares, or, in the case of uncertificated shares, the registered owners are notified of the Protective Amendment, or such registered owner has actual knowledge of the Protective Amendment. Therefore, even after the effectiveness of the Protective Amendment, we cannot assure you that we will not experience an ownership change as defined in Section 382, including as a result of a waiver or modification by our Board as permitted by the Protective Amendment.

On July 15, 2022, our Board approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to remove the Protective Amendment and declared its advisability. By notice dated July 25, 2022, our stockholders were notified of the meeting date of our annual stockholders meeting for 2022, at which annual meeting our stockholders was asked to approve, and approved, the removal of the Protective Amendment provisions. We cannot assure you that such removal will be effected, though approved by our stockholders, or that the use of our NOLs, or a portion thereof, against our future taxable income will not be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382, which may result in expiration of a portion of our NOLs before utilization.

We may periodically consummate opportunistic acquisitions of other companies, and we may not realize expected benefits or such acquisitions or we may have difficulties integrating acquired companies into our operations in a cost-effective manner, if at all.

We may periodically consummate opportunistic acquisitions of businesses, assets, personnel or technologies that allow us to complement our existing operations, expand our market coverage, enter new geographic markets, or add new business capabilities. We continually evaluate and explore strategic opportunities as they arise, including business combination
47


transactions, strategic partnerships, and the purchase or sale of assets. No assurance can be given that the benefits or synergies we may expect from an acquisition will be realized to the extent or in the time frame we anticipate. We may lose key employees, customers, vendors and other business partners of a company we acquire after announcement of acquisition plans. In addition, an acquisition may involve a number of risks and difficulties, including expansion into new geographic markets and business areas in which our management has limited prior experience, the diversion of management’s attention to the operations and personnel of the acquired company, the integration of the acquired company’s personnel, operations and technology systems and applications, changing relationships with customers, vendors or strategic partners, differing regulatory requirements including in new geographic markets and new business areas, and potential short-term adverse effects on our operating results. These challenges can be magnified as the size of the acquisition increases. Any delays or unexpected costs incurred in connection with the integration of an acquired company or otherwise related to an acquisition could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

An acquisition may require significant expenses and can result in increased debt or other contingent liabilities, adverse tax consequences, deferred compensation charges, the recording and later amortization of amounts related to deferred compensation and certain purchased intangible assets, and the refinement or revision of fair value acquisition estimates following the completion of an acquisition, any of which items could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we may record goodwill in connection with an acquisition and incur goodwill impairment charges in the future. Any of these charges could cause the price of our common stock to decline. An acquisition also could absorb substantial cash resources, require us to incur or assume debt obligations, or involve our issuance of additional equity securities. If we issue equity securities in connection with an acquisition, we may dilute our common stock with securities that have an equal or a senior interest in our company. An acquired entity also may be leveraged or dilutive to our earnings per share, or may have unknown liabilities. In addition, the combined entity may have lower than expected revenues or higher expenses and therefore may not achieve the anticipated results. Any of these factors relating to an acquisition could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks related to our intellectual property

Confidentiality agreements with employees, treating physicians and others may not adequately prevent disclosure of trade secrets and other proprietary information.

In order to protect our proprietary technology and processes, we rely in part on confidentiality provisions in our agreements with employees, treating physicians, and others. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of confidential information and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. In addition, others may independently discover trade secrets and proprietary information. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could adversely affect our competitive business position.

We may be subject to claims that we infringe the intellectual property rights of others, and unfavorable outcomes could harm our business.

Our future operations may be subject to claims, and potential litigation, arising from our alleged infringement of patents, trade secrets, trademarks or copyrights owned by other third parties. Within the healthcare, drug and bio-technology industry, many companies actively pursue infringement claims and litigation, which makes the entry of competitive products more difficult. We may experience claims or litigation initiated by existing, better-funded competitors and by other third parties. Court-ordered injunctions may prevent us from continuing to market existing products or from bringing new products to market and the outcome of litigation and any resulting loss of revenues and expenses of litigation may substantially affect our ability to meet our expenses and continue operations.

Risks related to our healthcare industry

Recent changes in insurance and health care laws have created uncertainty in the health care industry.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, each enacted in March 2010, generally known as the Health Care Reform Law, significantly expanded health insurance coverage to uninsured Americans and changed the way health care is financed by both governmental and private payors. Following the 2016 federal elections, which resulted in the election of the Republican presidential nominee and Republican majorities in both houses of Congress, there were renewed legislative efforts to significantly modify or repeal the Health Care Reform Law and certain executive policy changes designed to modify its impact, including the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017 which repealed the penalties under the Health Care Reform Law for uninsured persons. In light of the Supreme Court ruling in
48


California et al. v. Texas et al. in June 2021 generally supporting the Health Care Reform Law, we cannot predict what further reform proposals, if any, will be adopted, when they may be adopted, or what impact they may have on our business. There may also be other risks and uncertainties associated with the Health Care Reform Law. If we fail to comply or are unable to effectively manage such risks and uncertainties, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We expect that additional state and federal healthcare reform measures may be adopted in the future, any of which could limit the amounts that federal and state governments will pay for healthcare therapies, which could result in reduced demand for our services or additional pricing pressures. In August 2022, President Biden signed into law the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”), which, among other provisions, included several measures intended to lower the cost of prescription drugs and related healthcare reforms. The IRA permits the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to implement many of these provisions through guidance, as opposed to regulation, for the initial years. We cannot be sure whether additional legislation or rulemaking related to the IRA will be issued or enacted, or what impact, if any, such changes will have on our business.

Our policies and procedures may not fully comply with complex and increasing regulation by state and federal authorities, which could negatively impact our business operations.

The healthcare industry is highly regulated and continues to undergo significant changes as third-party payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid, traditional indemnity insurers, managed care organizations and other private payors, increase efforts to control cost, utilization and delivery of healthcare services. Healthcare companies are subject to extensive and complex federal, state and local laws, regulations and judicial decisions. Our failure or the failure of our treating physicians, to comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations may result in the imposition of civil or criminal sanctions that we cannot afford, or require redesign or withdrawal of our programs from the market.

We may become subject to medical liability claims, which could cause us to incur significant expenses and may require us to pay significant damages if not covered by insurance.
46



Our business entails the risk of medical liability claims against both our providers and us. Although we carry insurance covering medical malpractice claims in amounts that we believe are appropriate in light of the risks attendant to our business, successful medical liability claims could result in substantial damage awards that exceed the limits of our insurance coverage. We carry professional liability insurance for ourselves, and we separately carry a general insurance policy, which covers medical malpractice claims. In addition, professional liability insurance is expensive and insurance premiums may increase significantly in the future, particularly as we expand our services. As a result, adequate professional liability insurance may not be available to us in the future at acceptable costs or at all.

Any claims made against us that are not fully covered by insurance could be costly to defend against, result in substantial damage awards against us and divert the attention of our management and our providers from our operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any claims may adversely affect our business or reputation.

Our business practices may be found to constitute illegal fee-splitting or corporate practice of medicine, which may lead to penalties and adversely affect our business.

Many states have laws that prohibit business corporations, such as us, from practicing medicine, exercising control over medical judgments or decisions of physicians or other health care professionals (such as nurses or nurse practitioners), or engaging in certain business arrangements with physicians or other health care professionals, such as employment of physicians and other health care professionals or fee-splitting. The state laws and regulations and administrative and judicial decisions that enumerate the specific corporate practice and fee-splitting rules vary considerably from state to state and are enforced by both the courts and government agencies, each with broad discretion. Courts, government agencies or other parties, including physicians, may assert that we are engaged in the unlawful corporate practice of medicine, fee-splitting, or payment for referrals by providing administrative and other services in connection with our treatment programs. As a result of such allegations, we could be subject to civil and criminal penalties, our contracts could be found invalid and unenforceable, in whole or in part, or we could be required to restructure our contractual arrangements. If so, we may be unable to restructure our contractual arrangements on favorable terms, which would adversely affect our business and operations.

Our business practices may be found to violate anti-kickback, physician self-referral or false claims laws, which may lead to penalties and adversely affect our business.

The healthcare industry is subject to extensive federal and state regulation with respect to kickbacks, physician self-referral arrangements, false claims and other fraud and abuse issues.

The federal anti-kickback law (the “Anti-Kickback Law”) prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting, receiving, or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an individual, or the furnishing, arranging for, or recommending of an item or service that is reimbursable, in whole or in part, by a federal health care program. “Remuneration” is broadly defined to include anything of value, such as, for example, cash payments, gifts or gift certificates, discounts, or the furnishing of services, supplies, or equipment. The Anti-Kickback Law is broad, and it prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful in businesses outside of the health care industry.

49


Recognizing the breadth of the Anti-Kickback Law and the fact that it may technically prohibit many innocuous or beneficial arrangements within the health care industry, the Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) has issued a series of regulations, known as the “safe harbors.” Compliance with all requirements of a safe harbor immunizes the parties to the business arrangement from prosecution under the Anti-Kickback Law. The failure of a business arrangement to fit within a safe harbor does not necessarily mean that the arrangement is illegal or that the OIG will pursue prosecution. Still, in the absence of an applicable safe harbor, a violation of the Anti-Kickback Law may occur even if only one purpose of an arrangement is to induce referrals. The penalties for violating the Anti-Kickback Law can be severe. These sanctions include criminal and civil penalties, imprisonment, and possible exclusion from the federal health care programs. Many states have adopted laws similar to the Anti-Kickback Law, and some apply to items and services reimbursable by any payor, including private insurers.

In addition, the federal ban on physician self-referrals, commonly known as the Stark Law, prohibits, subject to certain exceptions, physician referrals of Medicare patients to an entity providing certain “designated health services” if the physician or an immediate family member of the physician has any financial relationship with the entity. A “financial relationship” is created by an investment interest or a compensation arrangement. Penalties for violating the Stark Law include the return of funds received for all prohibited referrals, fines, civil monetary penalties, and possible exclusion from the federal health care programs. In addition to the Stark Law, many states have their own self-referral bans, which may extend to all self-referrals, regardless of the payor.
47



The federal False Claims Act imposes liability on any person or entity that, among other things, knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment to the federal government. Under the False Claims Act, a person acts knowingly if he has actual knowledge of the information or acts in deliberate ignorance or in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of the information. Specific intent to defraud is not required. Violations of other laws, such as the Anti-Kickback Law or the FDA prohibitions against promotion of off-label uses of drugs, can lead to liability under the federal False Claims Act. The qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act allow a private individual to bring an action on behalf of the federal government and to share in any amounts paid by the defendant to the government in connection with the action. The number of filings of qui tam actions has increased significantly in recent years. When an entity is determined to have violated the False Claims Act, it may be required to pay up to three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus civil penalties of between $5,500 and $11,000 for each false claim. Conduct that violates the False Claims Act may also lead to exclusion from the federal health care programs. Given the number of claims likely to be at issue, potential damages under the False Claims Act for even a single inappropriate billing arrangement could be significant. In addition, various states have enacted similar laws modeled after the False Claims Act that apply to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state health care programs, and, in several states, such laws apply to claims submitted to all payors.

On May 20, 2009, the Federal Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009, or FERA, became law, and it significantly amended the federal False Claims Act. Among other things, FERA eliminated the requirement that a claim must be presented to the federal government. As a result, False Claims Act liability extends to any false or fraudulent claim for government money, regardless of whether the claim is submitted to the government directly, or whether the government has physical custody of the money. FERA also specifically imposed False Claims Act liability if an entity “knowingly and improperly avoids or decreases an obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the Government.” As a result, the knowing and improper failure to return an overpayment can serve as the basis for a False Claims Act action. In March 2010, Congress passed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, collectively the ACA, which also made sweeping changes to the federal False Claims Act. The ACA also established that Medicare and Medicaid overpayments must be reported and returned within 60 days of identification or when any corresponding cost report is due.

Finally, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its implementing regulations created the crimes of health care fraud and false statements relating to health care matters. The health care fraud statute prohibits knowingly and willfully executing a scheme to defraud any health care benefit program, including a private insurer. The false statements statute prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing, or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for health care benefits, items, or services. A violation of this statute is a felony and may result in fines, imprisonment, or exclusion from the federal health care programs.

Federal or state authorities may claim that our fee arrangements, our agreements and relationships with contractors, hospitals and physicians, or other activities violate fraud and abuse laws and regulations. If our business practices are found to violate any of these laws or regulations, we may be unable to continue with our relationships or implement our business plans, which would have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Further, defending our business practices could be time consuming and expensive, and an adverse finding could result in substantial penalties or require us to restructure our operations, which we may not be able to do successfully.

50


Our business practices may be subject to state regulatory and licensure requirements.

Our business practices may be regulated by state regulatory agencies that generally have discretion to issue regulations and interpret and enforce laws and rules. These regulations can vary significantly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and the interpretation of existing laws and rules also may change periodically. Some of our business and related activities may be subject to state health care-related regulations and requirements, including managed health care, utilization review (UR) or third-party administrator-related regulations and licensure requirements. These regulations differ from state to state, and may contain network, contracting, and financial and reporting requirements, as well as specific standards for delivery of services, payment of claims, and adequacy of health care professional networks. If a determination is made that we have failed to comply with any applicable state laws or regulations, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

If our providers or experts are characterized as employees, we would be subject to employment and withholding liabilities.

We structure our relationships with our providers and experts in a manner that we believe results in an independent contractor relationship, not an employee relationship. An independent contractor is generally distinguished from an employee by his or her degree of autonomy and independence in providing services. A high degree of autonomy and independence is generally indicative of a contractor relationship, while a high degree of control is generally indicative of an employment relationship. On October 13,
48


2022, the Department of Labor published its “Employee or Independent Contractor Classification under the Fair Labor Standards Act” (the “FLSA Standards”) that would rescind existing guidance adopted under the Trump Administration and broaden the scope of the so-called “economic realities test” used to classify workers, likely making it more difficult for workers to be classified as independent contractors. Although we believe that our providers and experts are properly characterized as independent contractors, tax or other regulatory authorities may in the future challenge our characterization of these relationships particularly if the new FLSA Standards are adopted. If such regulatory authorities or state, federal or foreign courts were to determine that our providers or experts are employees, and not independent contractors, we would be required to withhold income taxes, to withhold and pay social security, Medicare and similar taxes and to pay unemployment and other related payroll taxes. We would also be liable for unpaid past taxes and subject to penalties. As a result, any determination that our providers or experts are our employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to healthcare anti-fraud initiatives, which may lead to penalties and adversely affect our business.

State and federal government agencies are devoting increased attention and resources to anti-fraud initiatives against healthcare providers and the entities and individuals with whom they do business, and such agencies may define fraud expansively to include our business practices, including the receipt of fees in connection with a healthcare business that is found to violate any of the complex regulations described above. While to our knowledge we have not been the subject of any anti-fraud investigations, if such a claim were made, defending our business practices could be time consuming and expensive and an adverse finding could result in substantial penalties or require us to restructure our operations, which we may not be able to do successfully.

Our use and disclosure of patient information is subject to privacy and security regulations, which may result in increased costs.

In providing administrative services to healthcare providers and operating our treatment programs, we may collect, use, disclose, maintain and transmit patient information in ways that will be subject to many of the numerous state, federal and international laws and regulations governing the collection, use, disclosure, storage, privacy and security of patient-identifiable health information, including the administrative simplification requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its implementing regulations (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009 (HITECH). The HIPAA Privacy Rule restricts the use and disclosure of certain patient information (“Protected Health Information” or “PHI”), and requires safeguarding that information. The HIPAA Security Rule and HITECH establish elaborate requirements for safeguarding PHI transmitted or stored electronically. HIPAA applies to covered entities, which may include healthcare facilities and also includes health plans that will contract for the use of our programs and our services. HIPAA and HITECH require covered entities to bind contractors that use or disclose protected health information (or “Business Associates”) to compliance with certain aspects of the HIPAA Privacy Rule and all of the HIPAA Security Rule. In addition to contractual liability, Business Associates are also directly subject to regulation by the federal government. Direct liability means that we are subject to audit, investigation and enforcement by federal authorities. HITECH imposes breach notification obligations requiring us to report breaches of “Unsecured Protected Health Information” or PHI that has not been encrypted or destroyed in accordance with federal standards. Business Associates must report such breaches so that their covered entity customers may in turn notify all affected patients, the federal government, and in some cases, local or national media outlets. We may be required to indemnify our covered entity customers for costs associated with breach notification and the mitigation of harm resulting from breaches that we cause. If we are providing management services that include electronic billing
51


on behalf of a physician practice or facility that is a covered entity, we may be required to conduct those electronic transactions in accordance with the HIPAA regulations governing the form and format of those transactions. Services provided under our Ontrak solution not only require us to comply with HIPAA and HITECH but also Title 42 Part 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations (“Part 2”). Part 2 is a federal, criminal law that severely restricts our ability to use and disclose drug and alcohol treatment information obtained from federally-supported treatment facilities. Our operations must be carefully structured to avoid liability under this law. Our Ontrak solution qualifies as a federally funded treatment facility which requires us to disclose information on members only in compliance with Title 42.

In addition to the federal privacy regulations, there are a number of state laws governing the privacy and security of health and personal information. The penalties for violation of these laws vary widely and the area is rapidly evolving.

In 2018, California passed the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”), which gives consumers significant rights over the use of their personal information, including the right to object to the “sale” of their personal information. In 2020, Californians voted to enact the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which amends the CCPA by expanding consumers' rights in their personal information and creating a new governmental agency to interpret and enforce the statute. Most provisions of the CPRA will become effective on January 1, 2023. While information covered by HIPAA is generally exempt from the applicability of the
49


CCPA as amended by the CPRA, the rights of consumers under the CCPA may restrict our ability to use personal information in connection with our business operations. The CCPA also provides a private right of action for certain security breaches.

In 2019, New York passed a law known as the SHIELD Act, which expands data breach reporting obligations and requires companies to have robust data security programs in place. More recently, New York and other states, including Washington, have introduced significant privacy bills, and Congress is debating federal privacy legislation, which if passed, may restrict our business operations and require us to incur additional costs for compliance.

In addition, several foreign countries and governmental bodies, including the E.U., Brazil and Canada, have laws and regulations concerning the collection and use of personally identifiable information obtained from their residents, including identifiable health information, which are often more restrictive than those in the U.S. laws and regulations in these jurisdictions apply broadly to the collection, use, storage, disclosure and security of personally identifiable information, including health information, identifying, or which may be used to identify, an individual, such as names, email addresses and, in some jurisdictions, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, device identifiers and other data. Although we currently conduct business only in the United States of America, these laws and regulations could become applicable to us in the event we expand our operations into other countries. These and other obligations may be modified and interpreted in different ways by courts, and new laws and regulations may be enacted in the future.

Within the EEA, the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") took full effect on May 25, 2018, superseding the 1995 European Union Data Protection Directive and becoming directly applicable across E.U. member states. The GDPR includes more stringent operational requirements for processors and controllers of personal data (including health information) established in and outside of the EEA, imposes significant penalties for non-compliance and has broader extra-territorial effect. As the GDPR is a regulation rather than a directive, it applies throughout the EEA, but permits member states to enact supplemental requirements if they so choose. Noncompliance with the GDPR can trigger fines of up to the greater of €20 million or 4% of global annual revenues. Further, a Data Protection Act substantially implementing the GDPR was enacted in the U.K., effective in May 2018. It remains unclear, however, how U.K. data protection laws or regulations will develop in the medium to longer term and how data transfers to and from the U.K. will be regulated in light of the U.K.'s withdrawal from the E.U. In addition, some countries are considering or have enacted legislation requiring local storage and processing of data that could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our services.

We believe that we have taken the steps required of us to comply with laws governing the privacy and security of personal information, including health information privacy and security laws and regulations, in all applicable jurisdictions, both state and federal. However, we may not be able to maintain compliance in all jurisdictions where we do business. In addition, to the extent we disclose such information to our third-party service providers in the course of our business, we may be indirectly liable for their misuse or other unauthorized disclosure of such personal information (including health information). Failure to maintain compliance, or changes in state or federal privacy and security laws could result in civil and/or criminal penalties and could have a material adverse effect on our business, including significant reputational damage associated with a breach. Under HITECH, we are subject to prosecution or administrative enforcement and increased civil and criminal penalties for non-compliance, including a four-tiered system of monetary penalties. We are also subject to enforcement by state attorneys general who were given authority to enforce HIPAA under HITECH, and who have authority to enforce state-specific data privacy and security laws. If regulations change, if we expand the territorial scope of our operations, or if it is determined that we are not in compliance with
52


privacy regulations, we may be required to modify aspects of our program, which may adversely affect program results and our business or profitability.

Security breaches, loss of data and other disruptions could compromise sensitive information related to our business, prevent us from accessing critical information or expose us to liability, which could adversely affect our business and our reputation.

In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store sensitive data, including legally protected patient health information, personally identifiable information about our employees, intellectual property, and proprietary business information. We manage and maintain our applications and data utilizing an off-site co-location facility. These applications and data encompass a wide variety of business critical information including research and development information, commercial information and business and financial information.

The secure processing, storage, maintenance and transmission of this critical information is vital to our operations and business strategy, and we devote significant resources to protecting such information. Although we take measures to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access or disclosure, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers, viruses, breaches or interruptions due to employee error or malfeasance, breaches or interruptions due to the malfeasance or negligence of any of our third-party service providers, terrorist attacks, earthquakes, fire, flood, other natural
50


disasters, power loss, computer systems failure, data network failure, Internet failure or lapses in compliance with privacy and security mandates. We may be subject to distributed denial of service (DDOS) attacks by hackers aimed at disrupting service to patients and customers. Our response to such DDOS attacks may be insufficient to protect our network and systems. In addition, there has been a continuing increase in the number of malicious software attacks in a wide variety of different industries, including malware, ransomware, and email phishing scams, particularly since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Any such virus, breach or interruption could compromise our networks and the information stored there could be accessed by unauthorized parties, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. We have measures in place that are designed to detect and respond to such security incidents and breaches of privacy and security mandates. Nonetheless, we cannot guarantee our backup systems, regular data backups, security protocols, network protection mechanisms and other procedures currently in place, or that may be in place in the future, will be adequate to prevent or remedy network and service interruption, system failure, damage to one or more of our systems, data loss, security breaches or other data security incidents. We might be required to expend significant capital and resources to protect against or address such incidents. Any access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability under laws that protect the privacy of personal information (such as HIPAA and state data security laws), government enforcement actions and regulatory penalties. We may also be required to indemnify our customers for costs associated with having their data on our system breached. Unauthorized access, loss or dissemination could also interrupt our operations, including our ability to provide treatment, bill our customers, provide customer support services, conduct research and development activities, process and prepare company financial information, manage various general and administrative aspects of our business and damage our reputation, or we may lose one or more of our customers, especially if they felt their data may be breached, any of which could adversely affect our business.

Certain of our professional healthcare employees, such as nurses, must comply with individual licensing requirements.

All of our healthcare professionals who are subject to licensing requirements, such as our care coaches, are licensed in the state in which they provide professional services in person. While we believe our nurses provide coaching and not professional services, one or more states may require our healthcare professionals to obtain licensure if providing services telephonically across state lines to the state’s residents. Healthcare professionals who fail to comply with these licensure requirements could face fines or other penalties for practicing without a license, and we could be required to pay those fines on behalf of our healthcare professionals. If we are required to obtain licenses for our nurses in states where they provide telephonic coaching, it would significantly increase the cost of providing our product. In addition, new and evolving agency interpretations, federal or state legislation or regulations, or judicial decisions could lead to the implementation of out-of-state licensure requirements in additional states, and such changes would increase the cost of services and could have a material effect on our business.

Risks related to our preferred stock

Our Series A Preferred Stock ranks junior to all of our indebtedness and other liabilities.

In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our affairs, our assets will be available to pay obligations on the Series A Preferred Stock only after all of our indebtedness and other liabilities have been paid. The rights of holders of the Series A Preferred Stock to participate in the distribution of our assets will rank junior to the prior claims of our current and future creditors and any future series or class of preferred stock we may issue that ranks senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, the Series A Preferred Stock effectively ranks junior to all existing and future indebtedness and to the
53


indebtedness and other liabilities of our existing subsidiaries and any future subsidiaries. Our existing subsidiaries are, and future subsidiaries would be, separate legal entities and have no legal obligation to pay any amounts to us in respect of dividends due on the Series A Preferred Stock.

At SeptemberMarch 31, 30, 2022,2023, our total liabilities equaled $17.5was $18.2 million. If we are forced to liquidate our assets to pay our creditors, we may not have sufficient assets to pay amounts due on any or all of the Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding.
Our future debt instruments may restrict the authorization, payment or setting apart of dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, future offerings of debt or senior equity securities may adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. If we decide to issue debt or senior equity securities in the future, it is possible that these securities will be governed by an indenture or other instruments containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of the Series A Preferred Stock and may result in dilution to owners of the Series A Preferred Stock. We and, indirectly, our stockholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock will bear the risk of our future offerings, which may reduce the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock and will dilute the value of their holdings in us.
51



There can be no assurance that our Series A Preferred Stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our Series A Preferred Stock.

Our Series A Preferred Stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “OTRKP.” To maintain our listing we are required to satisfy continued listing requirements, including the requirement commonly referred to as the minimum bid price rule. The minimum bid price rule requires that the closing bid price of our Series A Preferred Stock be at least $1.00 per share. At the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023, we were not in compliance with the minimum bid price rule with respect to our Series A Preferred Stock. We regained compliance with the rule in February 2023, but subsequently on April 13, 2023, we received a notice from the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC indicating that we no longer met the minimum bid price rule with respect to our Series A Preferred Stock because the closing bid price of our Series A Preferred Stock was less than $1.00 for the previous 30 consecutive business days. The notice had no immediate effect on the listing of our Series A Preferred Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market. We have 180-calendar days (or until October 10, 2023) to regain compliance. If at any time during such 180-calendar day period the closing bid price of our Series A Preferred Stock is at least $1.00 for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide us written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed. There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the minimum bid price rule or continue to satisfy other continued listing standards and maintain the listing of our Series A Preferred Stock on Nasdaq. The suspension or delisting of our Series A Preferred Stock, or the commencement of delisting proceedings, for whatever reason could, among other things, materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell shares of our Series A Preferred Stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our Series A Preferred Stock. See also “There can be no assurance that our common stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq or, if listed, that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions,” below.

The liquidity of the market for our Series A Preferred Stock also depends on a number of other factors, including prevailing interest rates, our financial condition and operating results, the number of holders of our Series A Preferred Stock, the market for similar securities and the interest of securities dealers in making a market in our Series A Preferred Stock. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our Company will maintain the trading market in our Series A Preferred Stock, or how liquid that market will be. If an active market is not maintained, investors may have difficulty selling shares of our Series A Preferred Stock.


We may not be able to pay dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock if we have insufficient cash or available ‘surplus’ as defined under Delaware law to make such dividend payments.

Our ability to pay cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock requires us to have either net profits or positive net assets (total assets less total liabilities) over our capital, and that we have sufficient working capital in order to be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business. Our ability to pay dividends may also be impaired if any of the risks described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qreport or our Annual Report on Formin the 2022 10-K were to occur. Also, payment of our dividends depends upon our financial condition and other factors as our boardBoard of directorsDirectors may deem relevant from time to time. We cannot assure you that our businesses will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to make distributions on our common stock, if any, and preferred stock, including the Series A Preferred Stock to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs.

We have established a segregated account that was funded with a portion of the proceeds from sales of Series A Preferred Stock to pre-fund quarterly dividend payments on the Series A Preferred Stock until August 2022, although the payment of such amounts on deposit to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to compliance with applicable laws and with the foregoing limitations. Additionally, once the funds in the segregated account are exhausted, there can be no assurance that we will have sufficient cash flow from operationsor “surplus” to continue such dividend payments. The amounts on deposit are also assets of our consolidated entity and while we have agreed not to use such amount for any corporate purposes other than payments ofpay the cash dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock, such account will be available to our creditors generally in the event holders of our indebtedness or other obligations arising in the ordinary course of business seek to pursue remedies under bankruptcy or insolvency laws or otherwise.Stock. In addition, our Board of Directors is not required to declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock and did not declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock for the quarters ended May 30, 2022, and August 31, 2022. In addition, our Board of Directors may determine2022, November 30, 2022 and February 28, 2023. On April 19, 2023, approximately $4.5 million that the use of such amountCompany maintained in a segregated account to pre-fund quarterly dividend payments on deposit for other corporate purposes is required pursuant to the exercise of their fiduciary duties to our common stockholders. You should be aware that the pre-funded dividends may not be available to make such payments in the amounts and at the times required under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock.

Our Certificate of Incorporation currently contains provisions limiting the transferability and conversion of the Series A Preferred stock.

As noted above, the Protective Amendment was designed to assist in protecting the long-term value of our accumulated NOLs by limiting certain transfers of our common stock and certain of our other securities coming within the rules of the Internal Revenue Service under Section 382, including the Series A Preferred Stock until August 2022 was made available for general corporate purposes and was classified as such does not meetunrestricted cash on the exception provided by Section 1504(a) of the Code and related Treasury Regulation §1.382.-2(a)(3)(i) (collectively, “382 Stock”).While theCompany’s consolidated balance sheet. Our Board of Directors has approveddeemed the issuance of our Series A Preferred Stock after determining that such issuance is not likelyforegoing to resultbe in a prohibited ownership shift, the Protective Amendment will continue to apply to the Series A Preferred Stock after issuance, including the restrictions on transfer and exchange, until such time as our stockholders approve the removalbest interests of the Protective Amendment. By notice dated July 25, 2022, ourCompany and its common stockholders were notifiedin light of the meeting date of our annual stockholders meeting for 2022, at which annual meeting our stockholders was asked,Company’s current and the stockholders approved, the removal of the Protective Amendment provisions.

The market for our Series A Preferred Stock may not provide investors with adequate liquidity.

Our Series A Preferred Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. However, the trading market for the Series A Preferred Stock may not be maintained and may not provide investors with adequate liquidity. The liquidity of the market for the Series A Preferred Stock depends on a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates, ouranticipated financial condition and operating results,outlook, and after considering its fiduciary duties to the number of holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, the market for similar securitiesCompany’s common stockholders and the interest of securities dealers in making a market in the Series A Preferred Stock. We cannot predict the extent to which investor interest in our Company will maintain the trading market in our Series A Preferred Stock, or how liquid that market will be. If an active market is not maintained, investors may have difficulty selling shares of our Series A Preferred Stock.other relevant factors.


Future issuances of preferred stock may reduce the value of the Series A Preferred Stock.

We may sell additional shares of preferred stock on terms that may differ from the Series A Preferred Stock. Such shares could rank on parity with or, subject to the voting rights referred to above (with respect to issuances of new series of preferred stock), senior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to distribution rights or rights upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. The subsequent issuance of additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock, or the creation and subsequent issuance of additional classes of preferred stock on parity with the Series A Preferred Stock, could dilute the interests of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock offered hereby. Any issuance of preferred stock that is senior to the Series A Preferred Stock would not only dilute the interests of
52


the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, but also could affect our ability to pay distributions on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on the Series A Preferred Stock.

Market interest rates may materially and adversely affect the value of the Series A Preferred Stock.

One of the factors that influences the price of the Series A Preferred Stock is the dividend yield on the Series A Preferred Stock (as a percentage of the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock) relative to market interest rates. Continued increase in market interest rates may lead prospective purchasers of the Series A Preferred Stock to expect a higher dividend yield (and higher interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for dividend payments). Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock to materially decrease.

The special exchange right that the Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to may make it more difficult for a party to acquire us or discourage a party from acquiring us.

The Series A Preferred Stock special exchange right may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us or of delaying, deferring or preventing certain of our change of control transactions under circumstances that otherwise could provide the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-current market price of such equity securities or that stockholders may otherwise believe is in their best interests.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be unable to use the dividends-received deduction and may not be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to “qualified dividend income.”

Distributions paid to corporate U.S. holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be eligible for the dividends-received deduction, and distributions paid to non-corporate U.S. holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be subject to tax at the preferential tax rates applicable to “qualified dividend income,” if we have current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We do not currently have any accumulated earnings and profits. Additionally, we may not have sufficient current earnings and profits during future fiscal years for the distributions on the Series A Preferred Stock to qualify as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the distributions fail to qualify as dividends, U.S. holders would be unable to use the dividends-received deduction and may not be eligible for the preferential tax rates applicable to “qualified dividend income.”

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be subject to tax if we make or fail to make certain adjustments to the Exchange Rate of the Series A Preferred Stock even though you do not receive a corresponding cash dividend.

The exchange rate for the Series A Preferred Stock special exchange right is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. A failure to adjust (or to adjust adequately) such exchange rate after an event that increases your proportionate interest in us could be treated as a deemed taxable dividend to you. If you are a non-U.S. holder, any deemed dividend may be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable treaty, which may be set off against
55


subsequent payments on the Series A Preferred Stock. In April 2016, the Internal Revenue Service issued new proposed income tax regulations in regard to the taxability of changes in exchange rights that will apply to the Series A Preferred Stock when published in final form and may be applied to us before final publication in certain instances.

Our revenues, operating results and cash flows may fluctuate in future periods, and we may fail to meet investor expectations, which may cause the price of our Series A Preferred Stock to decline.

Variations in our quarterly and year-end operating results are difficult to predict, and our income and cash flows may fluctuate significantly from period to period. If our operating results fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, the price of our Series A Preferred Stock could decline substantially. Specific factors that may cause fluctuations in our operating results include:

The Series A Preferred Stock represents perpetual equity interests in us, and it has no maturity or mandatory redemption date and are not redeemable at the option of investors under any circumstances. As a result, the Series A Preferred Stock will not give rise to a claim for payment of a principal amount at a particular date. As a result, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in the Series A Preferred Stock for an indefinite period of time. In addition, the Series A Preferred Stock will rank junior to all our current and future indebtedness and other liabilities. The Series A Preferred Stock will also rank junior to any other senior securities we may issue in the future with respect to assets available to satisfy claims against us.
53



The Series A Preferred Stock has not been rated.

We have not sought to obtain a rating for the Series A Preferred Stock. No assurance can be given, however, that one or more rating agencies might not independently determine to issue such a rating or that such a rating, if issued, would not adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. Also, we may elect in the future to obtain a rating for the Series A Preferred Stock, which could adversely affect the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock. Ratings only reflect the views of the rating agency or agencies issuing the ratings and such ratings could be revised downward, placed on a watch list or withdrawn entirely at the discretion of the issuing rating agency if in its judgment circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision, placing on a watch list or withdrawal of a rating could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock.

The market price of the Series A Preferred Stock could be substantially affected by various factors.

The market price of the Series A Preferred Stock depends on many factors, which may change from time to time, including:

prevailing interest rates, increases in which may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock;
trading prices of similar securities;
our history of timely dividend payments;
the annual yield from dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock as compared to yields on other financial instruments;
general economic and financial market conditions;
government action or regulation;
the financial condition, performance and prospects of us and our competitors;
changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts with respect to us or our competitors in our industry;
our issuance of additional preferred equity or debt securities;
actual or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results of us and our competitors; and
the ongoing impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic.

As a result of these and other factors, holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may experience a decrease, which could be substantial and rapid, in the market price of the Series A Preferred Stock, including decreases unrelated to our operating performance or prospects.



56


A holder of Series A Preferred Stock has extremely limited voting rights.

The voting rights for a holder of Series A Preferred Stock are limited. Our shares of common stock are the only class of our securities that carry full voting rights. Voting rights for holders of the Series A Preferred Stock exist primarily with respect to voting on amendments to our certificate of incorporation, including the certificate of designations relating to the Series A Preferred Stock, that materially and adversely affect the rights of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock or authorize, increase or create additional classes or series of our capital stock that are senior to the Series A Preferred Stock. Other than the limited circumstances described in the Certificate of Designations establishing the Series A Preferred Stock and except to the extent required by law, holders of Series A Preferred Stock do not have any voting rights.

Risks related to our common stock

Failure to maintain effective internal controls could adversely affect our operating results and the market for our common stock.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we maintain internal control over financial reporting that meets applicable standards. As with many smaller companies with small staff, material weaknesses in our financial controls and procedures may be discovered. If we are unable, or are perceived as unable, to produce reliable financial reports due to internal control deficiencies, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and operating results, which could result in a negative market reaction and adversely affect our ability to raise capital.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, 12,195,575report, 11,891,933 shares of our outstanding common stock were owned by, and 102,654,155 shares of our common stock were beneficially held of recordowned by, Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC, (“Acuitas”), an entity indirectly wholly owned and controlled by Terren S.Mr. Peizer, which represents the Company's Executive Chairmanownership of approximately 40.6% of our outstanding common stock and largest stockholder, which representedthe beneficial ownership of approximately 42% of our outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, if our stockholders approve the terms of the Keep Well Agreement that require stockholder approval under Nasdaq listing rules for the issuance of shares85.5% of our common stock, and for the issuance of securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of our common stock,stock. In addition, under the Keep Well Agreement, the beneficial ownership of Acuitas Group Holdings and its affiliates may increase to 90% of our future outstanding shares of common stock. AsAs a result, heAcuitas has and is expected to continue to have the ability to significantlysignificantly influence the election of our Board of Directors and the outcome of all other matters submitted to our stockholders. HisAcuitas’ interest may not always coincide with our interests or the interests of other stockholders, and heAcuitas may act in a manner that advances hisits best interests and not necessarily those of other stockholders. One consequence to this substantial influence or control is that it may be difficult for investors to remove management of our Company.management. It could also deter unsolicited takeovers, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices.

There can be no assurance that our common stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq or, if listed, that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

Our common stock is traded on NASDAQ under the symbol “OTRK.” On September 14, 2022, we received a notice from the Staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Companywe no longer met the minimum bid price requirement set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”) because the closing bid price for the Company’sour common stock was less than $1.00 for the previous 30 consecutive business days. The notice had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’sour common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company haswe had a 180-calendar day grace period, or until March 13, 2023, (the “Compliance Date”),to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. Because we did not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement by March 13, 2023, in order to receive a second 180-calendar day grace period within which to regain compliance, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, we applied to the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq to transfer the listing of our common stock from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market and notified Nasdaq of our intention to cure the deficiency during the additional 180-calendar day grace period, such as by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.

On March 14, 2023, we received approval to transfer the listing of our common stock from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market, and as a result, we were granted a second 180-day grace period, or until September 11, 2023, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. The Minimum Bid Price Requirement will be met if the Company’sour common stock has a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days during the 180-calendar day grace period, unless Nasdaq exercises its discretion to extend such 10-day period. If the Company does not regain compliance by the Compliance Date, the Company mayWe will be eligible for an additional 180-calendar day compliance period, subject to satisfying the conditions in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Company is monitoring the closing bid price of itsour common stock and will consider optionseffect a reverse stock split, if necessary, in an attempt to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. However, therecompliance. There can be no assurance that the Companywe will be able to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If we do not regain compliance by September 11, 2023, we will receive a notification from Nasdaq that our common stock is subject to delisting. At that time, we may appeal the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearings panel. Such notification will have no immediate effect on our listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, nor will it have an immediate effect on the trading of our common stock pending such hearing, if we were to seek an appeal. In addition, even if we were to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, orthere can be no assurance that the Companywe will continuebe able to meetmaintain compliance with other continued listing requirements.requirements for The Nasdaq Capital Market or that our common stock will not be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market in the future. For example, the Company must continue to meet one of four different listing standards to remain listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. Currently, the
57


Company satisfies the “equity standard” which requires that the Company have: (a) stockholders' equity of at least $10 million; (b) at least 750,000 publicly held shares; (c) a market value of publicly held shares of at least $5 million; and (d) at least two registered and active market makers. The Company’s stockholders’ equity may become less than $10 million in early 2023, and, if it does, the Company would not satisfy the “equity standard” and may not satisfy any of the other continued listing standards to remain listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. If that were to be the case, the Company could seek to transfer to the Nasdaq Capital Market. However, the Nasdaq Capital Market requires that companies have: (x) stockholders' equity of at least $2.5 million; (y) a market value of listed securities of at least $35 million; or (z) net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the Company’scompany’s most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the three most recently completed fiscal years. The Company’sOur stockholders’ equity may become less than $2.5 million later in early 2023 and the Company doeswe do not currently meet either of the two alternative compliance standards described in clause (y) and (z).

In addition, even if we were to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain compliance with other continued listing requirements for The Nasdaq Capital Market or that our common stock will not be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market in the future. For example, The Nasdaq Capital Market requires that companies have: (x) stockholders' equity of at least $2.5 million; (y) a market value of listed securities of at least $35 million; or (z) net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the company’s most recently completed fiscal year or in two
55


of the three most recently completed fiscal years. Our stockholders’ equity may become less than $2.5 million later in 2023 and we do not currently meet either of the two alternative compliance standards described in clause (y) and (z).

In addition to the specified criteria for continued listing, Nasdaq also has broad discretionary public interest authority that it can exercise to apply additional or more stringent criteria for continued listing on the Nasdaq. Nasdaq has exercised this discretionary authority in the past. As reported above, as of the date of this report, Acuitas Group Holdings, LLC owns approximately 40.6% of our outstanding common stock, beneficially owns approximately 85.5% of our common stock, and we have borrowed $19.0 million in principal amount of secured debt from Acuitas under the Keep Well Agreement. Mr. Peizer owns and controls Acuitas and, as reported above, on March 1, 2023, the DOJ announced charges and the SEC filed a civil complaint against Mr. Peizer alleging unlawful insider trading in our stock. On March 1, 2023, Nasdaq requested certain information from us related to the charges against Mr. Peizer. We responded to those requests. No assurances can be given that Nasdaq will not exercise its discretionary public interest authority to delist our common stock or Series A preferred stock due to public interest concerns related to Acuitas’ ownership of our common stock or its relationship to us under the Keep Well Agreement.

Maintaining the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq is a condition precedent to receiving the remaining $6.0 million that we will borrow under the Keep Well Agreement. See “We will need additional funding, and we cannot guarantee that we will satisfy the conditions precedent for the $6.0 million that remains to be borrowed under the Keep Well Agreement or find adequate sources of capital in the future,” above.

If our common stock is ultimately delisted by Nasdaq, and we are not able to list our securities on another national securities exchange, we expect our securities could be quoted on an over-the-counter market. If this were to occur, then we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

less liquid trading market for our securities;
more limited market quotations for our securities;
determination that our common stock is a “penny stock” that requires brokers to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;
more limited research coverage by stock analysts;
loss of reputation; and
more difficult and more expensive equity financings in the future.

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” If our common stock remains listed on Nasdaq, our common stock will be covered securities. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of our securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. If our securities were no longer listed on Nasdaq and therefore not “covered securities”,securities,” we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities.

We incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management devotes substantial time to compliance initiatives.

We incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses as a public company, including costs resulting from public company reporting obligations under the Exchange Act and regulations regarding corporate governance practices. TheNasdaq's listing requirements of The Nasdaq Global Market and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, require that we satisfy certain corporate governance requirements relating to director independence, filing annual and interim reports, stockholder meetings, approvals and voting, soliciting proxies, conflicts of interest and a code of conduct. Our management and other personnel devote a substantial amount of time to ensure that we comply with all of these requirements. Moreover, the reporting requirements, rules and regulations associated with being a public company result in significant legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. These reporting requirements, rules and regulations, coupled with the increase in potential litigation exposure associated with being a public company, could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or board committees or to serve as executive officers, or to obtain certain types of insurance, including directors’ and officers’ insurance, on acceptable terms and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage.

Our stock price may be subject to substantial volatility, and the value of our stockholders' investment may decline.

56


The price at which our common stock trades fluctuates as a result of a number of factors, including the number of shares available for sale in the market, quarterly variations in our operating results and actual or anticipated announcements of our Ontrak solution, announcements regarding new or discontinued Ontrak solution contracts, new products or services by us or competitors, regulatory investigations or determinations, acquisitions or strategic alliances by us or our competitors, recruitment or departures of key personnel, the gain or loss of significant customers, changes in the estimates of our operating performance, actual or threatened litigation, market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole.

Numerous factors, including many over which we have no control, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock, including:
58



● announcements of new products or services by us or our competitors;
● current events affecting the political, economic and social situation in the United States;
● trends in our industry and the markets in which we operate;
● changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts;
● acquisitions and financings by us or our competitors;
● the gain or loss of a significant customer;
● quarterly variations in operating results;
● the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may consider to be comparable;
● purchases or sales of blocks of our securities; and
● issuances of stock.

We have used the market price of our common stock to establish future payment obligations to stockholders of acquisition targets in the past and may continue to do so in the future; any decline in the market price regardless of whether due to our performance or external market dynamics would give rise to a payment obligation to such holders. Furthermore, stockholders may initiate additional securities class action lawsuits if the market price of our stock drops significantly, which may cause us to incur further substantial costs and continue to divert the time and attention of our management.

Future sales of common stock by existing stockholders, or the perception that such sales may occur, could depress our stock price.

The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales by, or the perceived possibility of sales by, our existing stockholders. Most of our outstanding shares are eligible for public resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, approximately 10 m12 million shares illion shares of our common stock were held by our affiliates and may be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or in accordance with the volume and other limitations of Rule 144 or pursuant to other exempt transactions. Future sales of common stock by significant stockholders, including those who acquired their shares in private placements or who are affiliates, or the perception that such sales may occur, could depress the price of our common stock.

Future issuances of common stock and hedging activities may depress the trading price of our common stock.

Any future issuance of equity securities, including the issuance of shares upon direct registration, upon satisfaction of our obligations, compensation of vendors, exercise of outstanding warrants, or effectuation of a reverse stock split, could dilute the interests of our existing stockholders, and could substantially decrease the trading price of our common stock. As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had outstanding options to purchase 3,378,6265,585,828 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.65$0.36 to $86.57 per share and warrants to purchase 1,576,25642,496,703 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.01 to $13.68 per share. Also, as of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had a total of 1,452,0261,443,651 unvested RSUs outstanding. We may issue equity securities in the future for a number of reasons, including to finance our operations and business strategy, in connection with acquisitions, to adjust our ratio of debt to equity, to satisfy our obligations upon the exercise of outstanding warrants or options or for other reasons.

There may be future sales or other dilution of our equity, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

In the future, we may need to raise additional funds through public or private financing, which might include sales of equity securities. The issuance of any additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive common stock or the exercise of such securities could be substantially dilutive to holders of shares of our common stock. Holders of shares of our common stock have no preemptive rights that entitle holders to purchase their pro rata share of any offering of shares of any class or series. The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of sales of shares of our common stock made after this offering or the perception that such sales could occur. Because our decision to
57


issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our common stock and diluting their interests in our Company.

We have historically relied in part on sales of our common stock to fund our operations, and our future ability to obtain additional capital through stock sales or other securities offerings may be more costly than in the past, or may not be available to us at all.

We have historically relied in part on sales of our common stock to fund our operations. For example, we raised an aggregate of approximately $15.1 million in gross proceeds in fiscal years 2021 and 2022 through the sale of shares of our common stock in offerings made under a Form S-3 “shelf” registration statement. Using a shelf registration statement to conduct an equity offering to raise capital generally takes less time and is less expensive than other means, such as conducting an offering under a Form S-1 registration statement. We are no longer eligible to use a shelf registration statement due to non-payment of dividends on our Series A preferred stock since December 31, 2022. We may choose to conduct an offering of our securities under an exemption from registration under the Securities Act or under a Form S-1 registration statement, but we would expect either of these alternatives to be a more expensive method of raising additional capital and more dilutive to our stockholders relative to using a shelf registration statement.

The holders of our Series A Preferred Stock may be entitled to elect two directors to our board of directors.

Under the terms of the certificate of designation for our Series A Preferred Stock, if dividends on our Series A Preferred have not been paid in an aggregate amount equal to the equivalent of at least six or more quarterly dividends (whether consecutive or not), the number of directors constituting our Board of Directors will be increased by two, and the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock, will have the right, voting separately as a single class, to fill such newly created directorships (and to fill any vacancies in the terms of such directorships). Dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock are payable every February 28, May 30, August 31, and November 30. We did not pay the dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock payable in each of May 2022, August 2022, November 2022 and February 2023. Accordingly, if we do not pay all such dividends and we do not pay dividends with respect at least two additional quarterly dividend dates, the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to elect two directors to our board of directors.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and Delaware law could discourage a change in control, or an acquisition of us by a third party, even if the acquisition would be favorable to you.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the Delaware General Corporation Law contain provisions (including the Section 382 Ownership Limit) that may have the effect of making more difficult or delaying attempts by others to
59


obtain control of our Company, even when these attempts may be in the best interests of stockholders. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, to issue one or more series of preferred stock, which could have voting and conversion rights that adversely affect or dilute the voting power of the holders of common stock. Delaware law also imposes conditions on certain business combination transactions with “interested stockholders.” These provisions and others that could be adopted in the future could deter unsolicited takeovers or delay or prevent changes in our control or management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then current market prices. These provisions may also limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.

We do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We have paid no cash dividends on our common stock to date, and we intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to fund the continued development and growth of our business. As a result, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock. Further, any payment of cash dividends will also depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors, including contractual restrictions to which we may be subject, and will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
