Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Annual Report on Form 10-K, including documents incorporated herein by reference, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: any projections of net sales, earnings, or other financial items; any statements of the strategies, plans and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new products or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Forward-looking statements can be identified by their use of such words as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” or “anticipate” and similar references to future periods.
 
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the uncertainty regarding the impact or duration of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") virus pandemic that is rapidly spreading globally and adversely affecting communities and businesses. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, those that are discussed in “Business” (Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-K), “Risk Factors” (Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K), and throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K). Readers are cautioned that actual results could differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations that are expressed in forward-looking statements within this report. The forward-looking statements included in this report speak only as of the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Recent Developments
 
Fulfillment and Distribution Service Agreement 
 
On June 23, 2020, the Company announced its plans to close its Ooltewah, Tennessee facility as part of its previously announced consolidation and cost reduction initiatives. The production of products historically manufactured in our Tennessee facility have been transferred to our New Jersey and Minnesota facilities. As described more fully below, distribution operations were transferred to a third party logistics ("3PL") partner to provide fulfillment and distribution services. Dynatronics believes these actions will result in reduced costs, improved operating profitability, and provide scalability for growth. The facility closure is in the final stages at this time.
  
Effective July 8, 2020, the Company entered into a Master Service Agreement (“Agreement”) with Millstone Medical Outsourcing, LLC (“Millstone”) to provide fulfillment and distribution services. Pursuant to the Agreement, Millstone will store and distribute products as directed by the Company and the Company will pay Millstone fees at prices and on terms provided in the Agreement. The initial term of the Agreement is for three years from the effective date. The Agreement will automatically renew for one-year terms thereafter. Either party may terminate the Agreement with or without cause upon 180 days’ written notice. Either party may terminate in the event of material breach by the other party, following 60-days’ written notice and opportunity to cure, or immediately upon written notice in the event of a material breach incapable of cure that is resulting in continuing damage or loss. Either party may also terminate immediately with written notice in the event of the failure to obtain or renew any necessary governmental permit, license or approval, or in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party. Management believes the outsourcing of these distribution capabilities to Millstone is consistent with the Company’s objectives of streamlining its operations, continuing to align operating expenses with current revenue levels and, where advantageous, producing additional benefits from a reduction in workforce and related costs.

Resignation of Principal Executive Officer
 
On July 7, 2020, Brian Baker, citing the need for a reduced work schedule to allow more flexibility to address health issues relating to the COVID-19 virus, stepped down as Chief Executive Officer of Dynatronics Corporation. Mr. Baker continues to serve as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and, subject to the conditions and provisions of the Company’s equity incentive plans, equity awards held by Mr. Baker will continue to vest and be exercisable according to their respective terms. In connection with Mr. Baker’s resignation, the Company and Mr. Baker entered into a Separation and Pay Continuation Agreement (“Separation Agreement”). The Separation Agreement provides that through October 7, 2020 (the “Separation Date”), Mr. Baker will receive the same compensation and benefits, including continued vesting of outstanding equity awards, as under his existing employment agreement, effective August 19, 2019. The Separation Agreement includes a general release of claims and waivers customary in such agreements. Mr. Baker’s departure was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. The Company also entered into a Consulting Agreement with Mr. Baker (the “Baker Consulting Agreement”), effective October 8, 2020, pursuant to which Mr. Baker will provide consulting services to the Company on a part-time basis following the Separation Date for up to 20 hours per week.
 
Appointment of New Principal Executive Officer and Director
 
The Board named John Krier as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer effective July 7, 2020. Mr. Krier has served as Chief Financial Officer of Dynatronics since March 2020. Mr. Krier will continue to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer on an interim basis until a successor has been hired. On the recommendation of the Nominating Committee, the Board increased the number of directors constituting the full Board from six to seven directors and appointed Mr. Krier as a director to fill the resultant vacancy. Mr. Krier’s initial term as director will expire at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
 
Prior to joining the Company as Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Krier served as Vice President of Marketing of Breg, Inc. (“Breg”), a global medical device company, from March 2014 to November 2019, and provided consulting services to Breg from December 2019 until March 2020. Prior to joining Breg, Mr. Krier was President of Viscent, LLC, an orthopedic bracing supplier, from September 1, 2009 through October 1, 2012, and Executive Consultant to the Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors from October 2012 through September 2013. Mr. Krier holds a B.S. degree in Business Administration from the University of South Dakota. He is 43 years old.
 
In connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Krier entered into an employment agreement with the Company (the “Krier Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Krier Employment Agreement, the Company will pay Mr. Krier an annual base salary of $250,000 per year and he will be eligible for an annual bonus targeted at a maximum payout of $75,000, and an annual equity award of restricted stock units, or RSUs, up to a maximum value of $75,000, which amount will be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board, based on results of operations and Mr. Krier’s performance against goals established by the Compensation Committee. On the date of his appointment, Mr. Krier received a grant of 50,000 RSUs under the Dynatronics 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”), vesting in four equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. Upon vesting, Mr. Krier will receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of RSUs that have vested. Also upon his appointment date, the Company granted Mr. Krier a stock option under the 2018 Plan for the purchase of 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting over a four-year period with one-fourth of the shares vesting annually on the anniversary of the grant date. The exercise price of the stock option is the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Mr. Krier will operate from the Company’s Eagan, Minnesota location.
 
The Krier Employment Agreement continues until terminated by the Company or by Mr. Krier in accordance with the terms of the agreement. If the Company terminates Mr. Krier’s employment during the first 12 months without cause as defined under the agreement, the Company must pay Mr. Krier an amount equal to three months base salary. In addition, in such event, one-half of the initial equity compensation awards granted to him at the time of his appointment as CEO will automatically vest, subject to his execution of a release of all claims against the Company. Mr. Krier is also subject to a non-solicitation, non-competition and confidentiality agreement with post-termination restrictive covenants. The Company has also entered into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Krier on the same terms as it has with its other directors and executive officers.
 
Electrotherapy Manufacture and Assembly Agreement 
 
Effective March 2, 2020, the Company entered into a Master Supply Agreement with Ascentron, Inc. (“Ascentron”) for the manufacture and assembly of the Company’s electrotherapy products, previously manufactured in our Utah facility. Ascentron manufactures and assembles the products to specifications provided by the Company and the Company purchases the finished products from Ascentron at prices and on terms provided in the agreement. Management believes the outsourcing of these manufacturing capabilities to Ascentron is consistent with the Company’s objectives of streamlining its operations, continues to align operating expenses with current revenue levels and, where advantageous, produces additional benefits from a reduction in workforce and related costs. The agreement limits price increases to 2.5% annually. The Company retains the right in its sole discretion to extend the agreement for up to two additional two-year terms upon written notice to Ascentron. The Company may terminate the agreement at any time and for any reason upon 365-days’ written notice. Either party may terminate in the event of breach by the other party, following 60-days’ written notice and opportunity to cure, or in the event of the failure to obtain or renew any necessary governmental permit, license or approval, or in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party.

Our Products
 
We sell products that we manufacture and we sell and distribute products that are manufactured by unrelated third parties. To distinguish between these types of products, in this report, we refer to products manufactured by any of our Dynatronics affiliated entities or contract manufacturer as “Manufactured Products” and we refer to our products that we distribute that are manufactured by third parties as “Distributed Products”. All of these products are selected by us to fulfill our goal of providing quality restorative products to our customers. Manufactured Products accounted for approximately 75% of our net sales (excluding freight, repairs, and miscellaneous items) in fiscal year 2020.
 
We offer a broad range of restorative products for clinical use in physical therapy, rehabilitation, orthopedics, pain management, and athletic training. Our offerings include orthopedic soft bracing products, treatment tables, exercise and rehabilitation equipment, therapeutic modalities, and related supplies.
 
We are consistently recognized as Best in Class by our various distribution, OEM, and branded partners for our trusted high-quality products, on-time delivery, and superior customer care. Our focus on delivering products on-time is supported by our accelerated shipping options, including our “Quick Ship” program that promises shipment within one to 10 business days from date of order for many of our products.
 
Our products are used primarily by orthopedists, physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, sports medicine practitioners, clinics, hospitals, and consumers. The following illustrates a few select restorative products in our portfolio.
 
Orthopedic Soft Bracing Products
Our orthopedic soft bracing products are designed to accelerate health for patients both pre- and post-surgical intervention, and during fracture recovery, joint stabilization, and ligament injury.
 
Our Bird & Cronin® Manufactured Products include, among others, cervical collars, shoulder immobilizers, arm slings, wrist and elbow supports, abdominal and lumbosacral supports, maternity supports, knee immobilizers and supports, ankle walkers and supports, plantar fasciitis splints, and cold therapy. We continually seek to update our line of soft bracing Manufactured Products.

Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Products
Our physical therapy and rehabilitation products are designed to accelerate health in a wide range of clinical settings, including physical therapy, rehabilitation, pain management, and athletic training.
 
Our Solaris®, Hausmann™, and PROTEAM™ brands include products for physical therapy, rehabilitation, and athletic training. These products include treatment tables, exercise and rehabilitation equipment, therapeutic modalities, and related supplies.
 
Therapeutic Modalities
We manufacture and distribute a premium line of therapeutic modality devices that include electrotherapy, ultrasound, phototherapy, therapeutic laser, shortwave diathermy, radial pulse therapy, hot and cold therapy, compression therapy, and electrodes. These modalities can be effective in treating pain, increasing local blood circulation, promoting relaxation of muscle spasms, preventing retardation of disuse atrophy, and accelerating muscle re-education. Our branded line of modalities are well known to clinicians across all of our end-markets.
 
Treatment Tables, Exercise and Rehabilitation Equipment
We manufacture and distribute a premium line of power and manually operated treatment tables, mat platforms, work tables, parallel bars, training stairs, weight racks, treadmills, recumbent bikes, and other related equipment. These products are essential to treating patients in a variety of clinical settings.
 
Supplies
We manufacture and distribute various clinical supplies that include exercise bands and tubing, topical analgesics, lotions and gels, orthopedic bracing, paper products, athletic tape, and other related supplies.
 
Sales Mix among Key Products
 
No single product accounted for more than 10% of total revenues in fiscal years 2020 and 2019. Sales of Manufactured Products represented approximately 75% and 74% of total product sales, excluding freight and other revenue, in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively.
 
Patents and Trademarks
 
Patents. We own a United States patent on our thermoelectric technology that will remain in effect until February 2033. We also hold a United States patent on our combination traction/phototherapy technology that will remain in effect until December 2026, and a United States patent on our phototherapy technology that will remain in effect until August 2025.
 
Trademarks and Copyrights. We own trademarks used in our business, particularly marks relating to our corporate and product names. United States trademark registrations that are significant to our business, include Dynatron®, Dynatron Solaris®, Dynaheat®, BodyIce®, Powermatic®, Bird & Cronin®, Physician’s Choice®, and the Hausmann designed logo.

Federal registration of a trademark enables the registered owner of the mark to bar the unauthorized use of the registered mark in connection with a similar product in the same channels of trade by any third party anywhere in the United States, regardless of whether the registered owner has ever used the trademark in the area where the unauthorized use occurs. We may register additional trademarks in countries where our products are or may be sold in the future. Protection of registered trademarks in some jurisdictions may not be as extensive as the protection provided by registration under U.S. law. Trademark protection continues in some countries so long as the trademark is used, and in other countries, so long as the trademark is registered. Trademark registration is for fixed terms and can be renewed indefinitely. Our print materials are also protected under copyright laws, both in the United States and internationally.

We also claim ownership and protection of certain product names, unregistered trademarks, and service marks under common law. Common law trademark rights do not provide the same level of protection that is afforded by the registration of a trademark. In addition, common law trademark rights are limited to the geographic area in which the trademark is actually used. We believe these trademarks, whether registered or claimed under common law, constitute valuable assets, adding to recognition of the Company and the effective marketing of our products.
 
Trade Secrets. We own certain intellectual property, including trade secrets that we seek to protect, in part, through confidentiality agreements with key employees and other parties involved in manufacturing, research, and development. Even where these agreements exist, there can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets will not otherwise become known to or independently developed by competitors.
 
We intend to protect our legal rights in our intellectual property by all appropriate legal action. Consequently, we may become involved from time to time in litigation to determine the enforceability, scope, and validity of any of the foregoing proprietary rights. Any litigation related to our intellectual property could result in substantial cost and divert the efforts of management and technical personnel.
 
Warranty Service
 
We provide a warranty on all Manufactured Products for time periods generally ranging in length from 90 days to two years from the date of sale. We service warranty claims on these products at our Utah, New Jersey and Minnesota sites depending on the product and service required. We also have field service available in other parts of the United States. Our warranty policies are comparable to warranties generally available in the industry. Warranty claims were approximately $24,000 in fiscal year 2020, and $88,000 in fiscal year 2019.
 
Distributed Products carry warranties provided by the various manufacturers of those products. We do not generally supplement these warranties or provide unreimbursed warranty services for Distributed Products. We also sell accessory items for our Manufactured Products that are supplied by other manufacturers. These accessory products carry warranties from their original manufacturers without supplement from us.
 
Customers and Markets
 
We sell products to licensed practitioners such as orthopedists, physical therapists, chiropractors, and athletic trainers. Our customers also include professional sports teams and universities, sports medicine specialists, post-acute care facilities, hospitals, clinics, retail distributors and equipment manufacturer (OEM) partners. We utilize a network of over 300 independent dealers throughout the United States. Most dealers purchase and take title to the products, which they then sell to end users. In addition, we utilize a network of independent sales representatives combined with a small number of targeted direct sales representatives.
 
We have entered into agreements with independent clinics and hospitals, regional and national chains of physical therapy clinics and hospitals, integrated delivery networks, group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”), and government agencies. We sell products directly to these clinics, hospitals, and groups pursuant to preferred pricing arrangements. No single customer or group of related accounts was responsible for 10% or more of net sales in fiscal years 2020 and 2019.
 
We export products to approximately 30 different countries. Sales outside North America totaled approximately $1,286,000 in fiscal year 2020 (or approximately 2.4% of net sales) and $1,435,000 in fiscal year 2019 (or approximately 2.3% of net sales). We have no foreign manufacturing operations, but we purchase certain products and components from foreign manufacturers.

Competition
 
We do not compete with a single competitor across all of our product lines. Our industry comprises numerous competitors of varying sizes, including personal care companies, branded consumer healthcare companies and private label manufacturers. Information necessary to determine or reasonably estimate our market share or that of any competitor in any of these markets of our highly fragmented industry is not readily available to us.
 
We compete against various manufacturers and distributors, some of which are larger and more established, and have greater resources available to them, than Dynatronics. Our competitors in soft bracing products are primarily regional manufacturers, as well as several large corporations. Our competitors in treatment tables, exercise and rehabilitation equipment, and related supplies are from several domestic and international manufacturers and distributors.
 
In the clinical market for therapeutic modality devices, we compete with both domestic and foreign companies. Several of our products are protected by patents or where patents have expired, the proprietary technology on which those patents were based. We believe that the integration of advanced technology in the design of our products has distinguished Dynatronics-branded products in this competitive market. For example, we were the first company to integrate infrared phototherapy as part of a combination therapy device. We believe these factors give us a competitive edge. Our primary domestic competitors in the therapeutic device manufacturing market include four large manufacturers.
 
Trusted high-quality brands, on-time product delivery, and superior customer care are of key importance for us to remain competitive in this market and to maintain established relationships within our distribution channels.
 
Manufacturing and Quality Assurance
 
We produce Manufactured Products at our facilities in Northvale, New Jersey, Eagan, Minnesota, and Cottonwood Heights, Utah. The production of products historically manufactured in our Ooltewah, Tennessee facility have been transferred to our New Jersey and Minnesota facilities. Our Manufactured Products utilize custom components both fashioned internally from sourced raw materials, as well as components purchased from third-party suppliers. All parts and components purchased from third-party suppliers meet established specifications. Trained staff performs all sub-assembly, final assembly and quality assurance testing by following established procedures. Our design and development process ensures that Manufactured Products meet specified design requirements. The supply chain process manages suppliers of components and materials to ensure their quality and availability for our manufacturing teams.
 
Ascentron manufactures and assembles the Company's electrotherapy products, previously manufactured in our Utah facility, to specifications provided by the Company, and the Company purchases the finished products from Ascentron. The development and manufacture of a portion of our products manufactured to our specifications by Ascentron is subject to rigorous and extensive regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and international regulatory agencies, as applicable. In compliance with the FDA’s Current Good Manufacturing Practices, or cGMP, and standards established by the International Organization for Standardization, or ISO, we have developed a comprehensive quality system that processes customer feedback and analyzes product performance trends. Conducting prompt reviews of timely information allows us to respond to customer needs to enhance quality performance of the devices we produce.
 
Our Utah facility holds certification to ISO 13485:2016. Products manufactured at our facilities in New Jersey, and Minnesota meet the requirements of cGMP. Applicable quality systems enhance our ability to provide products and services that meet the expectations of our customers.
 
Research and Development
 
Total research and development (“R&D”) expenses in fiscal year 2020 were $95,000, compared to approximately $54,000 in fiscal year 2019. As a percentage of net sales, R&D expenses represented approximately 0.2% and 0.1% in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Regulatory Matters
 
The manufacture, packaging, labeling, advertising, promotion, distribution and sale of our products are subject to regulation by numerous national and local governmental agencies in the United States and other countries. In the United States, the FDA regulates some of our products pursuant to the Medical Device Amendment of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FD&C Act, and regulations promulgated under the FD&C Act. Advertising and other forms of promotion (including claims) and methods of marketing of the products are subject to regulation by the FDA and by the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, under the Federal Trade Commission Act, as applicable.
 
As a medical device manufacturer, we are required to register with the FDA and once registered we are subject to inspection for compliance with the FDA’s Quality Systems Regulations, as applicable. These regulations require us to manufacture our products and maintain related documents in a prescribed manner with respect to manufacturing, testing, and control activities. Further, we are required to comply with various FDA requirements for reportable events involving our devices. The FD&C Act and its medical device reporting regulations require us to provide information to the FDA if allegations are made that one of our products has caused or contributed to a death or serious injury, or if a malfunction of a product would likely cause or contribute to death or serious injury. The FDA also prohibits an approved device from being marketed for unapproved uses. All of our therapeutic treatment devices, as currently designed, are cleared for marketing under section 510(k) of the Medical Device Amendment to the FD&C Act or are considered 510(k) exempt. If a device is subject to section 510(k) clearance requirements, the FDA must receive pre-market notification from the manufacturer of its intent to market the device. The FDA must find that the device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device before the agency will clear the new device for marketing.
 
We intend to continuously improve our products after they have been introduced into the market. Certain modifications to our marketed devices may require a pre-market notification and clearance before the changed device may be marketed, if the change or modification could significantly affect safety and/or effectiveness. As appropriate, we may therefore submit future 510(k) notifications to the FDA. No assurance can be given that clearance or approval of such new applications will be granted by the FDA on a timely basis, or at all. Furthermore, we may be required to submit extensive pre-clinical and clinical data depending on the nature of the product changes. All of our devices, unless specifically exempted by regulation, are subject to the FD&C Act’s general controls, which include, among other things, registration and listing, adherence to the Quality System Regulation requirements for manufacturing, medical device reporting and the potential for voluntary and mandatory recalls described above.
 
In March 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, known as the Affordable Care Act, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 were signed into law. The passage of the Affordable Care Act imposed new reporting and disclosure requirements for device manufacturers with regard to payments or other transfers of value made to certain healthcare providers. Specifically, any transfer of value exceeding $10 in a single transfer or cumulative transfers over a one-year period exceeding $100 to any statutorily defined practitioner (primarily physicians, podiatrists, and chiropractors) must be reported to the federal government by March 31st of each year for the prior calendar year. The data is assembled and posted to a publicly accessible website by September 30th following the March 31st reporting date. If we fail to provide these reports, or if the reports we provide are not accurate, we could be subject to significant penalties. Several states have adopted similar reporting requirements. We believe we are in compliance with the Affordable Care Act and we have systems in place to assure continued compliance.
 
In March 2017, the FDA published guidance relating to Class II devices that would no longer be required to submit a pre-market notification (510(k)). This list was finalized in the Federal Register on July 11, 2017. Among the Class II devices exempted by this determination are some phototherapy devices such as those manufactured by us. That guidance indicates that such devices are considered safe and effective without adding the burden of a pre-market approval by the FDA. While this change diminishes the regulatory burden for such products, it also lowers the barriers to entry for competitive products. We view this change as generally positive for us and our ability to leverage existing technology competencies in this segment.
 
Failure to comply with applicable FDA regulatory requirements may result in, among other things, injunctions, product withdrawals, recalls, product seizures, fines, and criminal prosecutions. Any such action by the FDA could materially adversely affect our ability to successfully market our products. Our Utah, Tennessee, Minnesota and New Jersey facilities are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA for compliance with the FDA’s cGMP and other requirements, including appropriate reporting regulations and various requirements for labeling and promotion.
 
Advertising of our products is subject to regulation by the FTC under the FTC Act, as applicable. Section 5 of the FTC Act prohibits unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce. Section 12 of the FTC Act provides that the dissemination or the causing to be disseminated of any false advertisement pertaining to, among other things, drugs, cosmetics, devices or foods, is an unfair or deceptive act or practice. Pursuant to this FTC requirement, we are required to have adequate substantiation for all advertising claims made about our products. The type of substantiation required depends upon the product claims made.

If the FTC has reason to believe the law is being violated (e.g., a manufacturer or distributor does not possess adequate substantiation for product claims), it can initiate an enforcement action. The FTC has a variety of administrative and judicial processes and remedies available to it for enforcement, including compulsory process authority, cease and desist orders, and injunctions. FTC enforcement could result in orders requiring, among other things, limits on advertising, consumer redress, and divestiture of assets, rescission of contracts, or such other relief as may be deemed necessary. Violation of such orders could result in substantial financial or other penalties. Any such action against us by the FTC could materially and adversely affect our ability to successfully market our products.
 
From time to time, legislation is introduced in the Congress of the United States or in state legislatures that could significantly change the statutory provisions governing the approval, manufacturing, and marketing of medical devices and products like those we manufacture. In addition, FDA regulations and guidance are often revised or reinterpreted by the agency in ways that may significantly affect our business and our products. It is impossible to predict whether legislative changes will be enacted, or FDA regulations, guidance, or interpretations will be changed, and what the impact of such changes, if any, may be on our business and our results of operations. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations, or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative orders, when and if promulgated, domestically or internationally, would have on our business in the future. They could include, however, the recall or discontinuance of certain products, additional record keeping, expanded documentation of the properties of certain products, expanded or different labeling, and additional scientific substantiation. The necessity of complying with any or all such requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
 
In addition to compliance with FDA rules and regulations, we are also required to comply with international regulatory laws or other regulatory schemes used by other countries in which we choose to do business. Foreign governmental regulations have become increasingly stringent and more common, and we may become subject to more rigorous regulation by foreign governmental authorities in the future. Penalties for non-compliance with foreign governmental regulation could be severe, including revocation or suspension of a company’s business license and criminal sanctions. Any domestic or foreign governmental law or regulation imposed in the future may have a material adverse effect on us. We believe all of our present products are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable performance standards in countries where the products are sold. We also believe that our products comply with cGMP, record keeping and reporting requirements in the production and distribution of the products in the United States.
 
Foreign Government Regulation
 
Although it is not a current focus, we may expand our activities to market our products in select international markets in the future. The regulatory requirements for our products vary from country to country. Some countries impose product standards, packaging requirements, labeling requirements and import restrictions on some of the products we manufacture and distribute. Each country has its own tariff regulations, duties and tax requirements. Failure to comply with applicable foreign regulatory requirements may subject us to fines, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals, product recalls, seizure of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecution.
 
Environment
 
Environmental regulations and the cost of compliance with them are not material to our business. Numerous federal, state and local laws regulate the sale of products containing certain identified ingredients that may impact human health and the environment. For instance, California has enacted Proposition 65, which requires the disclosure of specified listed ingredient chemicals on the labels of products sold in that state and the use of warning labels when such ingredients may be found. We believe we are compliant with such regulations.
 
Seasonality
 
Our business is affected by some seasonality, which could result in fluctuation in our operating results. Sales are typically higher in our first and fourth fiscal quarters (the summer and spring months), while sales in our second and third fiscal quarters are generally slower (the fall and winter months). Therefore, our quarterly operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year, and historical operating results in a quarterly or annual period are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Employees
 
As of June 30, 2020, we employed 195 people, of which 190 were employed on a full-time basis. Certain of our employees (38 individuals) are subject to a collective bargaining agreement scheduled to expire in February 2022. We believe our labor relations with both union and non-union employees are satisfactory.
 
Item 1A. Risk Factors
 
In addition to the risks described elsewhere in this report and in certain of our other filings with the SEC, we have identified the following risks and uncertainties, among others, as risks that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by us or by any forward-looking statement contained in this report. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the uncertainty regarding the impact or duration of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") virus pandemic that is rapidly spreading globally and adversely affecting communities and businesses, including ours. You should consider the following risk factors, in addition to the information presented elsewhere in this report, particularly under the heading "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," on page 1 of this report, and statements and disclosures contained in the sections “Part I, Item 1. Business,” “Part II, Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as in the filings we make from time to time with the SEC, in evaluating us, our business and an investment in our securities. The fact that some of these risk factors may be the same or similar to those that we have included in other reports that we have filed with the SEC in past periods means only that the risks are present in multiple periods. We believe that many of the risks that are described here are part of doing business in the industry in which we operate and will likely be present in all periods. The fact that certain risks are endemic to the industry does not lessen their significance.
 
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
 
We rely on a third party logistics (“3PL”) provider for the storage, fulfillment, and distribution of a majority of our Distributed Products. The failure or inability of our 3PL to perform these services in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, could result in an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. We generally rely on the uninterrupted and efficient operation of our 3PL provider to fulfill orders and distribute our products. This provider may experience disruptions to their operations, including disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and a shortage of manpower. Disruptions experienced by our provider may result in monetary damages and an adverse effect on our customer relationships.
 
Furthermore, the facilities where our products are stored by such provider may also be harmed or rendered inoperable by natural or man-made disasters, including earthquakes, power outages, communications failure or terrorism. Any material damage to the facilities where our products are stored could adversely affect its inventory and the ability of such 3PL provider to meet the needs of its customers. In addition, an inability to maintain our logistics providers or a delay, disruption or quality control problems in the operations of such  provider, including as a result of damage to the facilities of such provider or a strike by such provider, could cause delays in our ability to fulfill customer orders and may cause orders to be canceled, or delivered late, our products to be returned, or receipt of products to be refused, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 
Our contract with our 3PL provider is terminable upon written notice by either party for convenience without cause upon 180 days’ written notice. If we are unable to maintain our contract with the provider, we would be required to retain a new 3PL provider and may be unable to retain such third party at a cost that is acceptable to us.
 
Finally, the failure or inability of this provider to deliver products from us to our customers, for any reason, could disrupt our business and harm our reputation and operating results. We work closely with our 3PL provider to anticipate issues, and also review public information regarding their financial health. However, issues may not be identified quickly, which may lead to lack of or poor execution of services, loss, or litigation. Additionally, deterioration of the financial condition of our 3PL provider could result in delayed responsiveness or delivery failure, which would ultimately affect our responsiveness to our customers and thus may adversely affect our business, operations, and financial performance.
 
We expect to rely on third-party manufacturers and will be dependent on their quality and effectiveness. Our electrotherapy products require precise, high-quality manufacturing. The failure to achieve and maintain high manufacturing standards, including failure to detect or control unexpected events or unanticipated manufacturing errors, or the frequent occurrence of such errors, could result in patient injury or death, delays or failures in product testing or delivery, cost overruns, product recalls or withdrawals and other problems that could seriously hurt our business. Third party manufacturers can encounter difficulties involving manufacturing processes, facilities, operations, production yields, quality control, compliance, and shortages of qualified personnel.
 
 
10
 
 
If for any reason our third-party manufacturer is unable or unwilling to perform, we may not be able to terminate our agreements with them, and we may not be able to locate alternative manufacturers or enter into favorable agreements with them, nor can we be certain that any such third-parties will have the manufacturing capacity to meet future requirements. If these manufacturers, or any alternate manufacturer, experience any significant difficulties in their respective manufacturing processes for our electrotherapy products, or should these manufacturers cease doing business with us, we could experience significant interruptions in the supply of our electrotherapy products or may not be able to create a supply of our electrotherapy products at all. Were we to encounter manufacturing issues, our ability to produce a sufficient supply of our electrotherapy products might be negatively affected. Our inability to coordinate the efforts of our third-party manufacturer, or the lack of capacity available at our third-party manufacturer, could impair our ability to supply our electrotherapy products at required levels.

We cannot guarantee our manufacturing and assembly partners will be able to manufacture our electrotherapy products at commercial scale on a cost-effective basis. If the commercial-scale manufacturing costs of our electrotherapy products are higher than expected, these costs may significantly impact our operating results.
 
Disruption of our supply chain could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our ability to make, move, and sell our products is critical to our success. Damage or disruption to our supply chain, including third-party manufacturing, assembly or transportation and distribution capabilities, due to weather, including any potential effects of climate change, natural disaster, fire or explosion, terrorism, pandemics (such as the COVID-19 pandemic), strikes, government action, or other reasons beyond our control or the control of our suppliers and business partners, could impair our ability to manufacture or sell our products. Failure to take adequate steps to mitigate the likelihood or potential impact of such events, or to effectively manage such events if they occur, particularly when a product is sourced from a single supplier or location, could adversely affect our business or financial results. In addition, disputes with significant suppliers, including disputes regarding pricing or performance, could adversely affect our ability to supply products to our customers and could materially and adversely affect our product sales, financial condition, and results of operations.
 
In particular, we are actively monitoring the recent COVID-19 pandemic and its potential impact on our supply chain and our consolidated results of operations. Due to restrictions resulting from the pandemic, global supply may become constrained, which may cause the price of certain ingredients and raw materials used in our products to increase and/or we may experience disruptions to our operations.
 
We face risks related to health epidemics and other widespread outbreaks of contagious disease, which could significantly disrupt our supply chain and impact our operating results. Significant outbreaks of contagious diseases, and other adverse public health developments, could have a material impact on our business operations and operating results. In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus causing respiratory illness emerged in China and has continued to spread to other countries, including the United States, and has been deemed a pandemic. Global governments, including local, state and federal government of the United States, have taken certain emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus, including implementation of stay-at-home orders, social distancing, travel bans and closure of factories and businesses. We have implemented guidelines and redundancies to promote employee health and wellness in order to meet our obligations as a manufacturer and infrastructure provider. If our employee health and wellness activities are not fully successful, it could have a material effect on our ability to manufacture products in required quantities. Although we are considered an essential manufacturer, some of our materials and products are sourced from suppliers located in affected areas. Likewise, many of our customers have had to temporarily close or limit their operations. While the full impact of this outbreak is unknown at this time, we are closely monitoring the developments and continually assessing the potential impact on our business. Any prolonged disruption to our suppliers, our manufacturing, or our customers could negatively impact our sales, operating results, collection of receivables, and valuation of inventory; however, the situation continues to develop and the extent or duration is still uncertain.
 
               Any current or future outbreak of a health epidemic or other adverse public health developments, such as the current outbreak of COVID-19, could disrupt our manufacturing and supply chain, and adversely affect our business and operating results. Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of health epidemics. For example, our materials suppliers could be disrupted by conditions related to COVID-19, or other epidemics, possibly resulting in disruption to our supply chain. If our suppliers are unable or fail to fulfill their obligations to us for any reason, we may not be able to manufacture our products and satisfy customer demand or our obligations under sales agreements in a timely manner, and our business could be harmed as a result. At this point in time, there is uncertainty relating to the potential effect of COVID-19 on our business. Infections may become more widespread and should that limit our ability to timely sell and distribute our products or cause supply disruptions, it would have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, a significant health epidemic could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could affect demand for our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Although certain of our products are used by healthcare professionals in settings where patients are treated, we do not make claims that our products are effective in the treatment, prevention or cure of disease, including COVID-19. If sales representatives, retailers or online resellers make unauthorized representations concerning the use of our products in the prevention, treatment or mitigation of COVID-19, the response to such statements may adversely affect our business and results of operations and the market price of our common stock. The manufacture, marketing and sale of our products are regulated by governmental agencies, including the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or FDA, or FDA, and the Federal Trade Commission, or FTC. Recently the FDA and the FTC issued warning letters to several companies for selling fraudulent COVID-19 products, as part of these agencies’ response in protecting Americans during the global COVID-19 outbreak. Companies that sell products that fraudulently claim to prevent, treat or cure COVID-19 may be subject to legal action, including but not limited to seizure or injunction. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak continues to impact our financial condition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new government actions or restrictions, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19, the longevity of COVID-19 and the impact of COVID-19 on economic activity.
 
We have a recent history of losses, and we may not return to or sustain profitability in the future. We have incurred net losses for nine consecutive fiscal years. We cannot predict when we will again achieve profitable operations or that we will not require additional financing to fulfill our business objectives. We may not be able to increase revenue in future periods, and our revenue could decline or grow more slowly than we expect. We may incur significant losses in the future for many reasons, including due to the risks described in this report.
 
We may need additional funding and may be unable to raise additional capital when needed, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In the future, we may require additional capital to pursue business opportunities or acquisitions or respond to challenges and unforeseen circumstances. We may also decide to engage in equity or debt financings or enter into credit facilities for other reasons. We may not be able to secure additional debt or equity financing in a timely manner, on favorable terms, or at all. Any debt financing obtained by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Failure to obtain additional financing when needed or on acceptable terms would have a material adverse effect on our business operations.
 
Our level of indebtedness may harm our financial condition and results of operations. Our level of indebtedness will impact our future operations in many important ways, including, without limitation, by:
 
Requiring that a portion of our cash flows from operations be dedicated to the payment of any interest or amortization required with respect to outstanding indebtedness;
Increasing our vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic and industry conditions, as well as to competitive pressure; and
Limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, general corporate and other purposes.
 
At the scheduled maturity of our credit facilities or in the event of an acceleration of a debt facility following an event of default, the entire outstanding principal amount of the indebtedness under such facility, together with all other amounts payable thereunder from time to time, will become due and payable. It is possible that we may not have sufficient funds to pay such obligations in full at maturity or upon such acceleration. If we default and are not able to pay any such obligations due, our lenders have liens on substantially all of our assets and could foreclose on our assets in order to satisfy our obligations. If we are unable to meet our debt service obligations and other financial obligations, we could be forced to restructure or refinance our indebtedness and other financial transactions, seek additional equity capital or sell our assets. We might then be unable to obtain such financing or capital or sell our assets on satisfactory terms, if at all. Our line of credit with a lender matures in January 2022, which will require that we renew the facility at that time. There is no assurance we will be successful in renewing the credit facility with our current lender or refinancing the facility with another lender. In addition, any refinancing of our indebtedness could be at significantly higher interest rates, and/or result in significant transaction fees.
 
If we fail to generate sufficient cash flow in the future, we may require additional financing. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future to service our debt, we may be required to refinance some or all our existing debt, sell assets, borrow more money or raise capital through the sale of our equity securities. If these or other kinds of additional financing become necessary, we may be unable to arrange such financing on terms that would be acceptable to us or at all.
 
 
12
 
 
Our inability to successfully manage growth through acquisitions, and the integration of acquired businesses, products or technologies may present significant challenges and could harm our operating results. Our business plan includes the acquisition of other businesses, products, and technologies. In the future we expect to acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies that we believe could complement our existing product lines, expand our customer base and operations, and enhance our technical capabilities or otherwise offer growth or cost-saving opportunities. As we grow through acquisitions, we face additional challenges of integrating the operations, personnel, culture, information management systems and other characteristics of the acquired entity with our own. Efforts to integrate future acquisitions may be hampered by delays, the loss of certain employees, changes in management, suppliers or customers, proceedings resulting from employment terminations, culture clashes, unbudgeted costs, and other issues, which may occur at levels that are more severe or prolonged than anticipated. If we identify an appropriate acquisition candidate, we may not be successful in negotiating favorable terms of the acquisition, financing the acquisition or effectively integrating the acquired business, product or technology into our existing business and operations. Our due diligence may fail to identify all of the problems, liabilities or other shortcomings or challenges of an acquired business, product or technology, including issues related to intellectual property, product quality or product architecture, regulatory compliance practices, revenue recognition or other accounting practices, or employee or customer issues.
 
We have incurred, and will likely continue to incur, significant expenses in connection with negotiating and consummating acquisitions. We may not achieve the synergies or other benefits we expected to achieve. And we may incur write-downs, impairment charges or unforeseen liabilities, all of which could negatively affect our operating results or financial position or could otherwise harm our business. If we finance acquisitions by issuing convertible debt or equity securities, the ownership interest of our existing shareholders may be significantly diluted, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. Further, contemplating, investigating, negotiating or completing an acquisition and integrating an acquired business, product or technology could divert management and employee time and resources from other matters that are important to our existing business.
 
If we fail to establish new sales and distribution relationships or maintain our existing relationships, or if our third party distributors and dealers fail to commit sufficient time and effort or are otherwise ineffective in selling our products, our results of operations and future growth could be adversely impacted. The sale and distribution of certain of our products depend, in part, on our relationships with a network of third-party distributors and dealers. These third-party distributors and dealers maintain the customer relationships with the hospitals, clinics, orthopedists, physical therapists and other healthcare professionals that purchase, use and recommend the use of our products. Although our internal sales staff trains and manages these third-party distributors and dealers, we do not control or directly monitor the efforts that they make to sell our products. In addition, some of the dealers that we use to sell our products also sell products that directly compete with our core product offerings. These dealers may not dedicate the necessary effort to market and sell our products or they may source products we distribute directly from the manufacturer. If we fail to attract and maintain relationships with third-party distributors and dealers or fail to adequately train and monitor the efforts of the third-party distributors and dealers that market and sell our products, or if our existing third-party distributors and dealers choose not to carry our products, our results of operations and future growth could be adversely affected.
 
Healthcare reform in the United States has had and is expected to continue to have a significant effect on our business and on our ability to expand and grow our business. The Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, significantly expanded health insurance coverage to uninsured Americans and changed the way health care is financed by both governmental and private payers. These provisions may be modified, repealed, or otherwise invalidated, in whole or in part. Future rulemaking could affect rebates, prices or the rate of price increases for health care products and services, or required reporting and disclosure. We cannot predict the timing or impact of any future rulemaking or changes in the law.
 
Our products are regulated by numerous government agencies, both inside and outside the United States. The impact of this factor on us is direct, to the extent we are subject to these laws and regulations, and indirect in that in a number of situations, even though we may not be directly regulated by specific healthcare laws and regulations, our products must be capable of being used by our customers in a manner that complies with those laws and regulations. The manufacture, distribution, marketing, and use of some of our products are subject to extensive regulation and increased scrutiny by the FDA and other regulatory authorities globally. Any new Class II product must undergo lengthy and rigorous testing and other extensive, costly and time-consuming procedures mandated by FDA and foreign regulatory authorities. Changes to current Class II products may be subject to vigorous review, including additional 510(k) and other regulatory submissions, and marketing clearances are not certain. Our facilities must be registered prior to production and remain subject to inspection from time to time thereafter. Failure to comply with the requirements of FDA or other regulatory authorities, including a failed inspection or a failure in our adverse event reporting system, could result in adverse inspection reports, warning letters, product recalls or seizures, monetary sanctions, injunctions to halt the manufacture and distribution of products, civil or criminal sanctions, refusal of a government to grant approvals or licenses, restrictions on operations or withdrawal of existing approvals and licenses. Any of these actions could cause a loss of customer confidence in us and our products, which could adversely affect our sales. The requirements of regulatory authorities, including interpretative guidance, are subject to change and compliance with additional or changing requirements or interpretative guidance may subject us or our products to further review, result in product launch delays or otherwise increase our costs.

 
13
 
 
Changing market patterns may affect demand for our products. Increasingly, medical markets are moving toward evidence-based practices. Such a move could shrink demand for products we offer if it is deemed there is inadequate evidence to support the efficacy of the products. Likewise, to achieve market acceptance in such environments may require expenditure of funds to do clinical research that may or may not prove adequate efficacy to satisfy all customers.
 
The cost of healthcare has risen significantly over the past decade and numerous initiatives and reforms initiated by legislators, regulators and third-party payers to curb these costs have resulted in a consolidation trend in the restorative products industry as well as among our customers, including healthcare providers. These conditions could result in greater pricing pressures and limitations on our ability to sell to important market segments, such as group purchasing organizations, integrated delivery networks and large single accounts. We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide healthcare industry, resulting in further business consolidations and alliances which may exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products and adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
The sale, marketing, and pricing of our products, and relationships with healthcare providers are under increased scrutiny by federal, state, and foreign government agencies. Compliance with anti-kickback statutes, false claims laws, the FDC Act (including as these laws relate to off-label promotion of products), and other healthcare related laws, as well as competition, data and patient privacy, and export and import laws, is under increased focus by the agencies charged with overseeing such activities, including FDA, the Office of Inspector General (OIG), Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FTC. The DOJ and the SEC have increased their focus on the enforcement of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) described below under “Our commercial activities internationally are subject to special risks associated with doing business in environments that present a heightened corruption and trade sanctions risk.” The laws and standards governing the promotion, sale, and reimbursement related to our products and laws and regulations governing our relationships with healthcare providers and governments can be complicated, are subject to frequent change and may be violated unknowingly. Violations or allegations of violations of these laws may result in large civil and criminal penalties, debarment from participating in government programs, diversion of management time, attention and resources and may otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the event of a violation, or the allegation of a violation of these laws, we may incur substantial costs associated with compliance or to alter one or more of our sales and marketing practices and we may be subject to enforcement actions which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our commercial activities internationally are subject to special risks associated with doing business in environments and jurisdictions that present a heightened corruption and trade sanctions risk. We operate our business and market and sell products internationally, including in countries in Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, which may be considered business environments that pose a relatively higher risk of corruption than the United States, and therefore present greater political, economic and operational risk to us, including an increased risk of trade sanction violations. In addition, there are numerous risks inherent in conducting our business internationally, including, but not limited to, potential instability in international markets, changes in regulatory requirements applicable to international operations, currency fluctuations in foreign countries, political, economic and social conditions in foreign countries and complex U.S. and foreign laws and treaties, including tax laws, the FCPA, and the Bribery Act of 2010 (“U.K. Anti-Bribery Act”). The FCPA prohibits U.S.-based companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to government officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. The FCPA also imposes recordkeeping and internal controls requirements on public companies in the U.S. The U.K. Anti-Bribery Act prohibits both domestic and international bribery as well as bribery across both public and private sectors. In recent years, the number of investigations and other enforcement activities under these laws has increased. As we expand our business to include pursuit of opportunities in certain parts of the world that experience government corruption, in certain circumstances compliance with anti-bribery laws may conflict with local customs and practices. Our policies mandate compliance with all applicable anti-bribery laws. Further, we require our partners, subcontractors, agents and others who work for us or on our behalf to comply with these and other anti-bribery laws. If we fail to enforce our policies and procedures properly or maintain adequate record-keeping and internal accounting practices to accurately record our transactions, we may be subject to regulatory sanctions. In the event that we believe or have reason to believe that our employees have or may have violated applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, trade sanctions or other laws or regulations, we are required to investigate or have outside counsel investigate the relevant facts and circumstances, and if violations are found or suspected, could face civil and criminal penalties, and significant costs for investigations, litigation, settlements and judgments, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
If significant tariffs or other restrictions are placed on imports or any related counter-measures are taken by foreign countries, our revenue and results of operations may be materially harmed. Potential changes in international trade relations between the United States and other countries could have a material adverse effect on our business. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and various other countries, with respect to trade policies, treaties, government regulations and tariffs. The U.S. government has adopted a new approach to trade policy including in some cases to renegotiate, or potentially terminate, certain existing bilateral or multi-lateral trade agreements. The U.S. government has also imposed tariffs on certain foreign goods. These measures may materially increase costs for goods imported into the United States. This in turn could require us to materially increase prices to our customers which may reduce demand, or, if we are unable to increase prices to adequately address any tariffs, quotas or duties result in lowering our margin on products sold. Changes in U.S. trade policy have resulted in, and could result in more, U.S. trading partners adopting responsive trade policies, including imposition of increased tariffs, quotas or duties, making it more difficult or costly for us to export our products to those countries. The implementation of a border tax, tariff or higher customs duties on our products manufactured abroad or components that we import into the U.S., or any potential corresponding actions by other countries in which we do business, could negatively impact our financial performance.

If we fail to obtain regulatory approval in foreign jurisdictions, then we cannot market our products in those jurisdictions. We sell some of our products in foreign jurisdictions. Many foreign countries in which we market or may market our products have regulatory bodies and restrictions similar to those of the FDA. International sales are subject to foreign government regulation, the requirements of which vary substantially from country to country. The time required to obtain approval by a foreign country may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA clearance and the requirements may differ. Companies are now required to obtain a CE Mark, which shows conformance with the requirements of applicable European Conformity directives, prior to the sale of some medical devices within the European Union. Some of our current products that require CE Markings have them and it is anticipated that additional and future products may require them as well. We may be required to conduct additional testing or to provide additional information, resulting in additional expenses, to obtain necessary approvals. If we fail to obtain approval in such foreign jurisdictions, we would not be able to sell our products in such jurisdictions, thereby reducing the potential revenue from the sale of our products.
 
We store, process, and use data, some of which contain personal information and are subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection and other matters, which are subject to change. Some of the data we store, process, and use, contains personal information, subjecting us to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and other countries with respect to privacy, rights of publicity, data protection, content, protection of minors, and consumer protection. These laws can be particularly restrictive. Both in the United States and abroad, these laws and regulations are evolving and remain subject to change. Several proposals are pending before federal, state and foreign legislative and regulatory bodies that could significantly affect our business. A number of states have enacted laws or are considering the enactment of laws governing the release of credit card or other personal information received from consumers:
 
California has enacted legislation, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) that, among other things, will require covered companies to provide new disclosures to California consumers, and afford such consumers new abilities to opt-out of certain sales of personal information. The CCPA went into effect on January 1, 2020.
 
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), effective May, 2018, establishes new requirements applicable to the processing of personal data (i.e., data which identifies an individual or from which an individual is identifiable), affords new data protection rights to individuals, and imposes penalties for serious data breaches. Individuals also have a right to compensation under GDPR for financial or non-financial losses. GDPR has imposed additional responsibility and liability in relation to our processing of personal data in the EU. GDPR has also required us to change our various policies and procedures in the EU and, if we are not compliant, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Canada’s Personal Information and Protection of Electronic Documents Act provides Canadian residents with privacy protections in regard to transactions with businesses and organizations in the private sector and sets out ground rules for how private sector organizations may collect, use, and disclose personal information in the course of commercial activities.
 
In November 2016, the Standing Committee of China’s National People’s Congress passed its Cybersecurity Law (“CSL”), which took effect in June 2017. The CSL is the first Chinese law that systematically lays out regulatory requirements on cybersecurity and data protection, subjecting many previously under-regulated or unregulated activities in cyberspace to government scrutiny.
 
               The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the GDPR, CSL and related laws may limit the use and adoption of our products and services and could have an adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. Foreign governments also may attempt to apply such laws extraterritorially or through treaties or other arrangements with U.S. governmental entities. In addition, the application and interpretation of these laws and regulations are often uncertain and could result in investigations, claims, changes to our business practices, increased cost of operations and declines in sales, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure you that the privacy policies and other statements regarding our practices will be found sufficient to protect us from liability or adverse publicity relating to the privacy and security of personal information. Whether and how existing local and international privacy and consumer protection laws in various jurisdictions apply to the internet and other online technologies is still uncertain and may take years to resolve. Privacy laws and regulations, if drafted or interpreted broadly, could be deemed to apply to the technology we use and could restrict our information collection methods or decrease the amount and utility of the information that we would be permitted to collect. A determination by a court or government agency of a failure, or perceived failure, by us, the third parties with whom we work or our products and services to protect employee, applicant, vendor, website visitor or customer personal data (including as a result of a breach by or of a third-party provider) or to comply with any privacy-related laws, government regulations or directives or industry self-regulatory principles or our posted privacy policies could result in damage to our reputation, legal proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or otherwise, which could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure, or security of personally identifiable information or other privacy-related matters, even if unfounded and even if we are in compliance with applicable laws, could damage our reputation and harm our business. We have and post on our website our own privacy policy and cookie statement concerning the collection, use and disclosure of user personal data.

Failures in, material damage to, or interruptions in our information technology systems, software or websites, including as a result of cyber-attacks, and difficulties in updating our existing software or developing or implementing new software, could have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations. We depend increasingly on our information technology systems in the conduct of our business. For example, we own, license or otherwise contract for sophisticated technology and systems to do business online with customers, including for order entry and fulfillment, processing and payment, product shipping and product returns. We also maintain internal and external communications, product inventory, supply, production and enterprise management, and personnel information on information systems. Our information systems are subject to damage or interruption from power outages, computer and telecommunications failures, computer viruses, security breaches and natural and manmade disasters. In particular, from time to time we and third parties who provide services for us experience cyber-attacks, attempted breaches of our or their information technology systems and networks or similar events, which could result in a loss of sensitive business or customer information, systems interruption or the disruption of our operations. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time, and accordingly we may be unable to anticipate and prevent all data security incidents. Like many businesses, our systems come under frequent attack from third parties. We are required to expend capital and other resources to protect against such cyber-attacks and potential security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such potential breaches or attacks. Despite the constant monitoring of our technology systems and hiring of specialized third parties to identify and address any vulnerabilities through implementation of multi-tiered network security measures, it is possible that computer programmers and hackers, or even internal users, may be able to penetrate, create systems disruptions or cause shutdowns of our network security or that of third-party companies with which we have contracted. As a result, we could experience significant disruptions of our operations and incur significant expenses addressing problems created by these breaches. Such unauthorized access could disrupt our business and could result in a loss of revenue or assets and any compromise of customer information could subject us to customer or government litigation and harm our reputation, which could adversely affect our business and growth. Although we maintain cyber liability insurance that provides liability and insurance coverages, subject to limitations and conditions of the policies, our insurance may not be sufficient to protect against all losses or costs related to any future breaches of our systems.
 
Market access could be a limiting factor in our growth. The emergence of GPO’s that control a significant amount of product flow to hospitals and other acute care customers may limit our ability to grow in the acute care space. GPO’s issue contracts to manufacturers approximately every three years through a bidding process. Despite repeated efforts, we have been relatively unsuccessful in landing any significant GPO contracts. The process for being placed on contract with a GPO is rigorous and non-transparent. Performance Health, a large competitor, controls the majority of GPO contracts in our market space holding in many instances a sole source contract.
 
A significant percentage of our workforce is subject to a collective bargaining agreement. Approximately 19% of our workforce is subject to a collective bargaining agreement, which is subject to negotiation and renewal every three years. The current agreement is scheduled to expire in February 2022. Our inability to negotiate the renewal of this collective bargaining agreement, or any prolonged work stoppages, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We cannot ensure that we will be successful in negotiating new collective bargaining agreements, that such negotiations will not result in significant increases in the cost of labor, or that a breakdown in such negotiations will not result in the disruption of our operations. In addition, employees who are not currently represented by labor unions may seek representation in the future. Although we have generally enjoyed good relations with both our union and non-union employees, if we are subject to labor actions, we may experience an adverse impact on our operating results.
 
We rely on a combination of patents, trade secrets, and nondisclosure and non-competition agreements to protect our proprietary intellectual property, and we will continue to do so. While we intend to defend against any threats to our intellectual property, these patents, trade secrets, or other agreements may not adequately protect our intellectual property. Third parties could obtain patents that may require us to negotiate licenses to conduct our business, and the required licenses may not be available on reasonable terms or at all. We also rely on nondisclosure and non-competition agreements with certain employees, consultants, and other parties to protect, in part, trade secrets and other proprietary rights. We cannot be certain that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information, or that third parties will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or proprietary knowledge.
 
Certain of the products we sell are subject to market and technological obsolescence. We offer approximately 10,000 products or variations of products. If our customers discontinue purchasing a given product, we might have to record expense related to the diminution in value of inventories we have in stock, and depending on the magnitude, that expense could adversely impact our operating results. In addition to the products of others that we distribute, we design and manufacture our own medical devices and products. We may be unable to effectively develop and market products against the products of our competitors in a highly competitive industry. Our present or future products could be rendered obsolete or uneconomical by technological advances by our competitors. Competitive factors include price, customer service, technology, innovation, quality, reputation and reliability. Our competition may respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies, undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, have greater financial, marketing and other resources than us or be more successful in attracting potential customers, employees and strategic partners. Given these factors, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to continue our level of success in the industry.

We are dependent on a limited number of third-party suppliers for components and raw materials and the loss of any of these suppliers, or their inability to provide us with an adequate supply of materials that meet our quality and other requirements, could harm our business. We rely on third-party suppliers to provide components for our products, manufacture products that we do not manufacture ourselves and perform services that we do not provide ourselves, including package-delivery services. Because these suppliers are independent third parties with their own financial objectives, actions taken by them could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations. The risks of relying on suppliers include our inability to enter into contracts with such suppliers on reasonable terms, breach, or termination by suppliers of their contractual obligations, inconsistent or inadequate quality control, relocation of supplier facilities, and disruption to suppliers’ business, including work stoppages, suppliers’ failure to comply with complex and changing regulations, and third-party financial failure. Any problems with our suppliers and associated disruptions to our supply chain could materially negatively impact our ability to supply the market, substantially decrease sales, lead to higher costs, or damage our reputation with our customers, and any longer-term disruptions could potentially result in the permanent loss of our customers, which could reduce our recurring revenues and long-term profitability. Disruption to our supply chain could occur as a result of any number of events, including, but not limited to, increases in wages that drive up prices; the imposition of regulations, trade protection measures, tariffs, duties, import/export restrictions, quotas or embargoes on key components; labor stoppages; transportation failures affecting the supply and shipment of materials and finished goods; the unavailability of raw materials; severe weather conditions; natural disasters; civil unrest, geopolitical developments, war or terrorism; computer viruses, physical or electronic breaches, or other information system disruptions or security breaches; and disruptions in utility and other services.
 
We may be adversely affected by product liability claims, unfavorable court decisions or legal settlements. Our business exposes us to potential product liability risks that are inherent in the design, manufacture and marketing of medical devices. We maintain product liability insurance coverage which we deem to be adequate based on historical experience; however, there can be no assurance that coverage will be available for such risks in the future or that, if available, it would prove sufficient to cover potential claims or that the present amount of insurance can be maintained in force at an acceptable cost. In addition, we may incur significant legal expenses regardless of whether we are found to be liable. Furthermore, the assertion of such claims, regardless of their merit or eventual outcome, also may have a material adverse effect on our business reputation and results of operations.
 
Intellectual property litigation and infringement claims could cause us to incur significant expenses or prevent us from selling certain of our products. The medical device industry is characterized by extensive intellectual property litigation and, from time to time, we are the subject of claims by third parties of potential infringement or misappropriation. Regardless of outcome, such claims are expensive to defend and divert the time and effort of management and operating personnel from other business issues. A successful claim or claims of patent or other intellectual property infringement against us could result in our payment of significant monetary damages and/or royalty payments or negatively impact our ability to sell current or future products in the affected category.
 
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
 
Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq could result in a delisting of our common stock. Our common stock is currently listed for trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market, and the continued listing of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market is subject to our compliance with a number of listing standards. On May 15, 2020, we received notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that because the closing bid price for our common stock had fallen below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days, we no longer complied with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Rule 5550(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rules, as tolled for the extraordinary and unprecedented turmoil in U.S. and world financial markets, we have until December 28, 2020 to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days prior to December 28, 2020. If that occurs, Nasdaq will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the minimum bid requirement.
 
If the Company does not regain compliance by December 28, 2020, it may be eligible for an additional grace period, provided it meets the applicable market value of publicly held shares requirement for continued listing, and all other applicable Nasdaq standards for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of bid price. If we do not regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement by December 28, 2020 and the Nasdaq staff determines that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible for such additional compliance period, Nasdaq will provide notice that our common stock will be subject to delisting. We would have the right to appeal a determination to delist our common stock, and the common stock would remain listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market until the completion of the appeal process. If our common stock were no longer listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market, investors might only be able to trade on one of the over-the-counter markets. This would impair the liquidity of our common stock not only in the number of shares that could be bought and sold at a given price, which might be depressed by the relative illiquidity, but also through delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in media coverage. In addition, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for us; and;
a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
 
 
17
 
 
We may take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, or prevent future non-compliance with Nasdaq's listing requirements.
 
             A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise working capital and adversely impact our operations. Our operating results, including components of operating results such as gross margin and cost of product sales, may fluctuate from time to time, and such fluctuations could adversely affect our stock price. Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and can be expected to fluctuate from time to time in the future. The market price for our common stock may also be affected by our ability to meet or exceed expectations of analysts or investors. Any failure to meet these expectations, even if minor, could materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock. A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock for any reason could result in a reduction in our ability to raise capital.
 
Our stock price has been volatile and we expect that it will continue to be volatile. For example, during the year ended June 30, 2020, the selling price of our common stock ranged from a high of $3.70 to a low of $0.63. The volatility of our stock price can be due to many factors, including:
 
quarterly variations in our operating results;
changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results;
failure of our operating results to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;
changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us or the healthcare industry in general;
strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestments, spin-offs, joint ventures, strategic investments or changes in business strategy;
operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;
news reports relating to trends in our markets;
changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;
material announcements by us or our competitors;
material announcements by the manufacturers and suppliers we use;
sales of substantial amounts of our common stock by our directors, executive officers or significant shareholders or the perception that such sales could occur; and
general economic and political conditions such as trade wars and tariffs, recession, and acts of war or terrorism.
 
The recent COVID-19 global pandemic has increased capital markets volatility. The global stock markets have experienced, and may continue to experience, significant volatility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the price of our common stock has been volatile in recent months. The COVID-19 pandemic and the significant uncertainties it has caused for the global economy, business activity, and business confidence have had, and is likely to continue to have, a significant effect on the market price of securities generally, including our securities. For example, in the 12 months ended June 30, 2020, the sales price on The Nasdaq Capital Market for our common stock ranged from a low of $0.63 to a high of $3.70 per share. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which we cannot control, including, among others, the current and future public response and investor reaction to rumors or factual reports of global events, terrorism, outbreaks of disease and other natural disasters, such as the recent COVID-19 or coronavirus pandemic and the other factors discussed in this report and in our other reports and documents filed with the SEC.

Investors in our securities may experience substantial dilution upon the conversion of preferred stock to common, exercise of stock options and warrants, future issuances of stock, grants of restricted stock and the issuance of stock in connection with acquisitions of other companies. Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common and preferred stock up to the authorized capital stated in the articles of incorporation. The Board may choose to issue some or all of such shares of common or preferred stock to acquire one or more businesses or to provide additional financing in the future. As of September 21, 2020, we had outstanding a total of 1,992,000 shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred”), 1,459,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred”), and 230,000 shares of Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred”), as well as warrants for the purchase of approximately 6,738,500 shares of common stock. The Series A Preferred, Series B Preferred and Series C Preferred shares are convertible into a total of 3,681,000 shares of common stock. The conversion of these outstanding shares of preferred stock and the exercise of the warrants will result in substantial dilution to our common shareholders. In addition, from time to time, we have issued and we expect we will continue to issue stock options or restricted stock grants or similar awards to employees, officers, and directors pursuant to our equity incentive award plans. Investors in our equity securities may expect to experience dilution as these awards vest and are exercised by their holders and as the restrictions lapse on the restricted stock grants. We also may issue stock or stock purchase warrants for the purpose of raising capital to fund our growth initiatives, in connection with acquisitions of other companies, or in connection with the settlement of obligations or indebtedness, which would result in further dilution of existing shareholders. The issuance of any such shares of common or preferred stock may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we do issue any such additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for the purchase of common stock, such issuance also will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other shareholders and may result in a change in control of the Company.
 
The stock markets (including the NASDAQ Capital Market, on which we list our common stock) have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. As a result, the market price of our common stock could be similarly volatile, and investors in our common stock may experience a decrease in the value of their shares, including decreases unrelated to our financial condition, operating performance or prospects. The market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors, including strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestments, spin-offs, joint ventures, strategic investments or changes in business strategy.
 
We are able to issue shares of preferred stock with greater rights and preferences than our common stock. Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue one or more series of preferred stock from time to time without any action on the part of our shareholders. The Board also has the power, without shareholder approval, to set the terms of any such series of preferred stock that may be issued, including voting rights, dividend rights and preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends and other terms. If we issue additional preferred stock in the future that has a preference over our common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or other terms, or if we issue additional preferred stock with voting rights that dilute the voting power of our common stock, the rights of holders of our common stock or the market price of our common stock would be adversely affected.
 
The holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred are entitled to receive dividends on the Series A and Series B Preferred they hold and depending on whether these dividends are paid in cash or stock, the payment of such dividends will either decrease cash that is available to us to invest in our business or dilute the holdings of other shareholders. Our agreements with the holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred provide that they will receive quarterly dividends at 8%, subject to adjustment as provided in the applicable declarations of the rights and preferences of these series of preferred stock. We may under certain circumstances elect to pay these dividends in stock. Payment of the dividends in cash decreases cash available to us for use in our business and the use of shares of common stock to pay these dividends results in dilution of our existing shareholders.
 
The concentration or potential concentration of equity ownership by Prettybrook Partners, LLC and its affiliates may limit your ability to influence corporate matters. As of June 30, 2020, Prettybrook Partners, LLC and its managing directors and affiliates (collectively “Prettybrook”), owned approximately 1,349,000 shares of common stock, 1,069,000 shares of Series A Preferred, and 300,000 shares of Series B Preferred. These securities represent approximately 15% of the voting power of our issued and outstanding equity securities. Under the terms of the Series A Preferred, by agreement with us and the remaining holders of the Series A Preferred, Prettybrook has the right to appoint up to three members of our seven-member Board of Directors (the Preferred Directors) and has appointed a non-voting observer to the Board. Moreover, the exercise of warrants issued to Prettybrook in the Series A Preferred financing and the Series B Preferred financing transactions in which Prettybrook was an investor could further enable Prettybrook to exert significant control over operations and influence over all corporate activities, including the election or removal of directors and the outcome of tender offers, mergers, proxy contests or other purchases of common stock that could give our shareholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market price for their shares of common stock. This concentrated control will limit your ability to influence corporate matters and, as a result, we may take actions that our shareholders do not view as beneficial. In addition, such concentrated control could discourage others from initiating changes of control. In such cases, the perception of our prospects in the market and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected.
 
 
19
 
 
Sales of a large number of our securities, or the perception that such sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock. A substantial number of shares of our equity securities are eligible for immediate resale in the public market. Any sales of substantial amounts of our securities in the public market, or the perception that such sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock.
 
Our ability to issue preferred stock could delay or prevent takeover attempts. As of September 21, 2020, we had 3,681,000 shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding and our Board of Directors has the authority to cause us to issue, without any further vote or action by the shareholders, up to approximately 46,319,000 additional shares of preferred stock, no par value per share, in one or more series, and to designate the number of shares constituting any series, and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption, redemption price or prices and liquidation preferences of such series of preferred stock. In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be used as a method of discouraging, delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control without further action by the shareholders, even where shareholders might be offered a premium for their shares. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our preferred stock, we may do so in the future under appropriate circumstances.
 
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments 
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 2. Properties
 
We lease an 85,000 square-foot manufacturing, warehouse, and office facility in Eagan, Minnesota, which houses our corporate headquarters and principal executive offices. This lease has an initial three-year term that commenced in October 2017, with monthly lease payments of $50,000. We may extend the lease under two, two-year optional extensions. We have extended the term of the lease through October 2022. The landlord is Bird & Cronin, Inc., from which we acquired the Bird & Cronin assets and operations in 2017. Stockholders of Bird & Cronin, Inc. include an employee of the Company. The lease was negotiated at arms’ length as part of the applicable acquisition transaction. We believe that the terms of the agreement are commercially reasonable for the market in which the facility is located.
 
We lease a 60,000 square-foot manufacturing and office facility in Northvale, New Jersey to house our Hausmann Enterprises, LLC operations. The initial two-year term of this lease commenced in April 2017, with monthly lease payments of $30,000 for the first year and 2% increases in each subsequent year. The lease provides for two options to extend the term of the lease for two years per extension term, subject to annual 2% per year increases in base rent, and a third extension option at the end of the second option term for an additional five years at fair market value. We have exercised options to extend the term of the lease through April 2023. The landlord is a stockholder and the previous owner of the assets and operations acquired in 2017. The lease was negotiated at arms’ length as part of the applicable acquisition transaction. We believe that the terms of the agreement are commercially reasonable for the market in which the facility is located.
 
We own a 53,000 square-foot manufacturing facility and undeveloped acreage in Chattanooga, Tennessee, subject to a mortgage requiring monthly payments to a bank of approximately $13,000 and maturing in 2021. The interest rate on this obligation is 6.4% per annum. We currently have this building for sale.
 
We lease a 36,000 square-foot manufacturing, warehouse, and office facility in Cottonwood Heights, Utah. We sold the building in August 2014, and now lease it back from the purchaser. The monthly lease payment is approximately $30,000 and the lease terminates in 2029. We account for the lease-back agreement as a finance lease which results in depreciation and implied interest expense each period, offset by an amortized gain on the sale of the property. Overall the net monthly occupancy cost of this lease is $29,000. We are currently exploring leasing a portion of the building to a third-party and have engaged a broker to assist us.
 
We believe the facilities described above are adequate for our current needs and that they will accommodate our presently expected growth and operating needs. As our business continues to grow, additional facilities or the expansion of existing facilities may be required.
 
               We also own equipment used in the manufacture and assembly of our products and computer equipment. The nature of this equipment is not specialized and replacements may be readily obtained from any of a number of suppliers.

Outstanding Common Shares and Number of Shareholders
 
As of September 21, 2020, we had approximately 14,096,252 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and approximately 400 shareholders of record, not including shareholders whose shares are held in “nominee” or “street” name by a bank, broker or other holder of record.
 
Dividends
 
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock. Our anticipated capital requirements are such that we intend to follow a policy of retaining earnings, if any, in order to finance the development of the business.
 
 
21
 
 
As of September 21, 2020, we had outstanding 1,992,000 shares of Series A Preferred, 1,459,000 shares of Series B Preferred, and 230,000 shares of Series C Preferred. These series of preferred stock have rights and preferences that rank senior to or in certain circumstances, on par with, our common stock. The declarations of the rights and preferences of these series of preferred stock contain covenants that prohibit us from declaring and distributing dividends on our common stock without first making all distributions that are due to any senior securities. Dividends payable on the Series A and the Series B Preferred accrue at the rate of 8% per year and are payable quarterly. We may, at our option under certain circumstances, make distributions of these dividends in cash or in shares of common stock. When possible, we pay dividends on the Series A and Series B Preferred in shares of common stock. The formula for paying these dividends in common stock can change the effective yield on the dividend to more or less than 8% depending on the market price of the common stock at the time of issuance.
 
Sales of Equity Securities
 
During the year ended June 30, 2020, we sold an aggregate of 3,200,585 shares of common stock. We incurred offering costs totaling $238,000, inclusive of commissions paid to the sales agents at a fixed rate of 3.0%, together with legal, accounting and filing fees. Net proceeds from the sale of the shares totaled $2,287,000.
 
Purchases of Equity Securities
 
We did not purchase any shares of common stock during the year ended June 30, 2020 or in the prior eight fiscal years.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
               The following discussion contains assumptions, estimates and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” on page 1 of this Form 10-K, Risk Factors (Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K) and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto, which are included in Part II, Item 8 of this report.
 
Overview
 
We design, manufacture, and sell a broad range of restorative products for clinical use in physical therapy, rehabilitation, orthopedics, pain management, and athletic training. Through our distribution channels, we market and sell to orthopedists, physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, sports medicine practitioners, clinics, hospitals, and consumers.
 
Results of Operations
 
Fiscal Year 2020 Compared to Fiscal Year 2019
 
Net Sales
 
Net sales in fiscal year 2020 decreased $9,156,000, or 14.6%, to $53,409,000, compared to net sales of $62,565,000 in fiscal year 2019. The year-over-year decrease is primarily due to the expected decline in sales due to stay-at-home policies and government restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the continued decline in physical therapy and rehabilitation product sales.
 
 
22
 
 
Gross Profit
 
Gross profit for the year ended June 30, 2020 decreased $4,076,000, or 21.3%, to $15,098,000, or 28.3% of net sales. By comparison, gross profit for the year ended June 30, 2019 was $19,174,000, or 30.6% of net sales. The year-over-year decrease in gross profit was attributable to: (1) lower sales which reduced gross profit by approximately $2,806,000 and (2) reduced gross margin percent which reduced gross profit by approximately $1,270,000. The year-over-year decrease in gross margin percentage to 28.3% from 30.6% was due primarily to lower efficiency of the production process as a result of lower sales.
 
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
 
Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $1,879,000, or 9.4%, to $18,091,000 for the year ended June 30, 2020, compared to $19,970,000 for the year ended June 30, 2019. Selling expenses decreased $1,605,000 compared to the prior year period, due primarily to lower commission expense on lower sales and decreased sales management salaries during the year. General and administrative ("G&A") expenses decreased $274,000 compared to the prior-year period, driven by a  $234,000 increase in severance expenses offset by a $508,000 decrease in other G&A expenses primarily related to lower payroll and benefits as a result of headcount reductions.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense decreased approximately $76,000 in fiscal year 2020, to approximately $436,000, compared to approximately $512,000 in fiscal year 2019. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to lower interest rates and lower average borrowings on our line of credit resulting in interest charges of $196,000 and $269,000 for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Another large component of interest expense is imputed interest related to the sale/leaseback of our corporate headquarters facility which totaled $156,000 and $167,000, respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Interest expense also included interest on the mortgage on our Tennessee property, imputed interest related to other capital leases, and interest paid on equipment loans for office furnishings and vehicles.
 
Net Loss Before Income Tax
 
Pre-tax loss for the year ended June 30, 2020 was $3,436,000 compared to $916,000 for the year ended June 30, 2019. The $2,519,000 increase in pre-tax loss was primarily attributable to a decrease of $4,076,000 in gross profit and an increase of $322,000 in net other expense,  partially offset by a decrease of $1,879,000 in SG&A. The increase in net other expense was primarily attributable to a $375,000 gain on revaluation of the Bird & Cronin acquisition earn-out liability in the year ended June 30, 2019 partially offset by a decrease in interest expense. 
 
Income Tax
 
Income tax benefit was $10,000 in fiscal year 2020, compared to an income tax provision of $5,000 in fiscal year 2019.
 
Net Loss
 
Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2020 was $3,425,000, compared to $922,000 for the year ended June 30, 2019. The reasons for the change in net loss are the same as those given under the headings Net Loss Before Income Tax and Income Tax in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”).
 
 
23
 
 
Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders
 
Net loss attributable to common stockholders increased $2,601,000 to $4,317,000 ($0.42 per share) for the year ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1,716,000 ($0.21 per share) for the year ended June 30, 2019. The increase in net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year is due primarily to: (1) a $2,503,000 increase in net loss; (2) a $174,000 increase in deemed dividends on convertible preferred stock and accretion of discounts; and (3) a $77,000 decrease in preferred stock dividends
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We have historically financed operations through cash from operating activities, available cash reserves, borrowings under a line of credit facility (see, Line of Credit, below) and proceeds from the sale of our equity securities. As of June 30, 2020, we had $2,216,000 in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $156,000 as of June 30, 2019. During fiscal year 2020, we had positive cash flows from operating activities.
 
Working capital was $8,396,000 as of June 30, 2020, compared to working capital of $5,638,000 as of June 30, 2019. The current ratio was 2.1 to 1 as of June 30, 2020 and 1.4 to 1 as of June 30, 2019. Current assets were 42.8% of total assets as of June 30, 2020, and 50.2% of total assets as of June 30, 2019.
 
We believe that our cash generated from operations, current capital resources including recent loan and equity proceeds, and available credit provide sufficient liquidity to fund operations for the next 12 months. However, the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could have an adverse effect on our liquidity and cash and we continue to evaluate and take action, as necessary, to preserve adequate liquidity and ensure that our business can continue to operate during these uncertain times.
 
In March 2020, we entered into an equity distribution agreement with Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners LLC, pursuant to which we arranged to offer and sell shares of our common stock in an at-the-market offering (“ATM”) under a registration statement previously filed by us on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On March 13, 2020, we filed a Prospectus Supplement amending the registration statement and commenced the ATM. Under the terms of the equity distribution agreement, we may sell shares of our common stock in an aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000, with Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners LLC acting as our sales agents at the market prices prevailing on The Nasdaq Capital Market at the time of the sale of such shares. We will pay Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners, LLC a fixed commission rate equal to 3.0% of the gross sale price per share of common stock sold.
 
  In April 2020, we sold an aggregate of 3,200,585 shares of common stock under the equity distribution agreement in the ATM. We incurred offering costs totaling $238,000, inclusive of commissions paid to the sales agents at a fixed rate of 3.0%, together with legal, accounting and filing fees. Net proceeds from the sale of the shares totaled $2,287,000. Proceeds were used to strengthen our liquidity and working capital position.
 
On April 29, 2020, we entered into a promissory note (the “Note”) with Bank of the West to evidence a loan to the Company in the amount of $3,477,412 under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”).
 
In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, we expect to use the proceeds from the loan exclusively for qualified expenses under the PPP, including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs, as further detailed in the CARES Act and applicable guidance issued by the SBA. Interest will accrue on the outstanding balance of the Note at a rate of 1.00% per annum. We intend to apply for forgiveness of all amounts due under the Note, in an amount equal to the sum of qualified expenses under the PPP incurred during the 24 weeks following initial disbursement. Notwithstanding our expected eligibility to apply for forgiveness, no assurance can be given that we will obtain forgiveness of all or any portion of amounts due under the Note.
 
Subject to any forgiveness granted under the PPP, the Note is scheduled to mature two years from the date of initial disbursement under the Note and is payable in monthly installments beginning 10 months after the completion of the 24 week covered period. The Note may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty. The Note contains customary provisions related to events of default, including, among others, failure to make payments, bankruptcy, breaches of representations, significant changes in ownership, and material adverse effects. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the collection of all amounts owing under the Note, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against us. Our obligations under the Note are not secured by any collateral or personal guarantees.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
 
Our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash position increased $2,060,000 to $2,316,000 as of June 30, 2020, compared to $256,000 as of June 30, 2019. The primary sources of cash in the year ended June 30, 2020, was $3,090,000 of net cash provided by operating activities, $2,287,000 net proceeds from issuance of common stock, and $3,477,000 proceeds from the PPP Note. Primary uses of cash included net payments of $5,528,000 under our line of credit and acquisition holdbacks of $500,000.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Trade accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, decreased approximately $2,601,000, or 34.7%, to $4,894,000 as of June 30, 2020, from $7,495,000 as of June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in sales in the year ended June 30, 2020. Trade accounts receivable represents amounts due from our customers including dealers and distributors, medical practitioners, clinics, hospitals, colleges, universities and sports teams. We believe that our estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate based on our historical experience and relationships with our customers. Accounts receivable are generally collected within approximately 40 days of invoicing.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories, net of reserves, decreased $3,156,000, or 27.4%, to $8,372,000 as of June 30, 2020, compared to $11,528,000 as of June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to steps taken to right-size incoming material purchases and adjust inventory management as part of our working capital plans in response to the impacts of COVID-19. During fiscal year 2020, we recorded in cost of goods sold, $460,000 in non-cash write-offs of inventory related to discontinued product lines, excess repair parts, product rejected for quality standards, and other non-performing inventory, compared to inventory write-offs of $0 in fiscal year 2019. We believe that our estimate of the allowance for inventory reserves is adequate based on our historical knowledge and product sales trends.
 
Accounts Payable
 
Accounts payable decreased approximately $976,000, or 24.5%, to $3,014,000 as of June 30, 2020, from $3,990,000 as of June 30, 2019. The decrease in accounts payable was driven primarily by a reduction in inventory purchases and timing of payments.
 
Line of Credit
 
  We have a line of credit with Bank of the West (“Line of Credit”) available pursuant to a loan and security agreement, as amended (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), that matures on January 15, 2022. Our obligations under the Line of Credit are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of our assets. The Line of Credit requires a lockbox arrangement and contains affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee indebtedness, incur liens, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, make changes in the nature of our business, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The agreement also contains financial covenants including a minimum monthly consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio which only applies when the excess availability amount under the Line of Credit is less than the greater of $1,000,000 or 10% of the borrowing base. As amended, the Loan and Security Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings in an amount up to the lesser of $11,000,000 or the calculated borrowing base. The borrowing base is computed monthly and is equal to the sum of stated percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, less a reserve. Amounts outstanding bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% (approximately 2.4% as of June 30, 2020). The Line of Credit is subject to a quarterly unused line fee of .25%.
 
As of June 30, 2020, we had borrowed $1,013,000 under the Line of Credit compared to total borrowings of $6,541,000 as of June 30, 2019. There was approximately $5,040,000 and $1,480,000 available to borrow as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
 
 
25
 
 
Debt
 
               Long-term debt increased approximately $3,302,000 to approximately $3,605,000 as of June 30, 2020, compared to approximately $303,000 as of June 30, 2019. Our long-term debt is primarily comprised of the PPP Note, mortgage loan on our office and manufacturing facility in Tennessee maturing in 2021, and also includes loans related to equipment and a vehicle. The principal balance on the PPP Note is $3,477,412, all of which is classified as long-term debt at June 30, 2020. The principal balance on the mortgage loan is approximately $91,000, all of which is classified as current portion of long-term debt at June 30, 2020, with monthly principal and interest payments of $13,000.
 
  Finance Lease Liability
 
Finance lease liability as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled approximately $2,914,000 and $3,199,000, respectively. Our capital lease obligations consist primarily of a capitalized building lease. In conjunction with the sale and leaseback of our Utah building in August 2014, we entered into a 15-year lease, classified as a finance lease, originally valued at $3,800,000. The building lease asset is amortized on a straight line basis over 15 years at approximately $252,000 per year. Total accumulated amortization related to the leased building is approximately $1,491,000 at June 30, 2020. The sale generated a profit of $2,300,000, which is being recognized straight-line over the life of the lease at approximately $150,000 per year as an offset to amortization expense. The balance of the deferred gain as of June 30, 2020 is $1,379,000. Lease payments, currently approximately $30,000, are payable monthly and increase annually by approximately 2% per year over the life of the lease. Imputed interest for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $156,000. In addition to the Utah building, we lease certain equipment which have been determined to be finance leases. As of June 30, 2020, future minimum gross lease payments required under the capital leases were as follows:
 
2021
 $465,624 
2022
  472,874 
2023
  445,280 
2024
  384,754 
2025
  392,446 
Thereafter
  1,720,902 
Total
 $3,881,880 

Operating Lease Liability
 
  Operating lease liability as of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 totaled approximately $3,358,000 and $0, respectively. The operating lease liability was recorded upon the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. Our operating lease liability consists primarily of building leases for office, manufacturing, warehouse and storage space.
 
 Acquisition Holdback and Earn-Out Liability
 
Acquisition earn-out liability decreased $500,000 or 100.0%, to $0 as of June 30, 2020, from $500,000 as of June 30, 2019. The decrease is due to payments during the year ended June 30, 2020.
 
Inflation
 
Our revenues and net income have not been unusually affected by inflation or price increases for raw materials and parts from vendors.
 
 
26
 
 
Stock Repurchase Plan
 
In 2011, our Board of Directors adopted a stock repurchase plan authorizing repurchases of shares in the open market, through block trades or otherwise. Decisions to repurchase shares under this plan are based upon market conditions, the level of our cash balances, general business opportunities, and other factors. The Board may periodically approve amounts for share repurchases under the plan. As of June 30, 2020, approximately $449,000 remained available under this authorization for purchases under the plan. No purchases have been made under this plan since September 28, 2011.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
                This MD&A is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements (see Part II, Item 8 below), which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We regularly review our estimates and assumptions. The SEC has requested that all registrants address their most critical accounting policies. The SEC has indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the representation of the registrant’s financial condition and results and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We base our estimates on past experience and on various other assumptions our management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results will differ, and may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Additionally, changes in accounting estimates could occur in the future from period to period. Our management has discussed the development and selection of our most critical financial estimates with the audit committee of our Board of Directors. The following paragraphs identify our most critical accounting policies:
 
Inventories
 
The nature of our business requires that we maintain sufficient inventory on hand at all times to meet the requirements of our customers. We record finished goods inventory at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Raw materials are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Inventory valuation reserves are maintained for the estimated impairment of the inventory. Impairment may be a result of slow-moving or excess inventory, product obsolescence or changes in the valuation of the inventory. In determining the adequacy of reserves, we analyze the following, among other things:
 
Current inventory quantities on hand;
Product acceptance in the marketplace;
Customer demand;
Historical sales;
Forecast sales;
Product obsolescence;
Strategic marketing and production plans
Technological innovations; and
Character of the inventory as a distributed item, finished manufactured item or raw material.
 
Any modifications to estimates of inventory valuation reserves are reflected in cost of goods sold within the statements of operations during the period in which such modifications are determined necessary by management. As of June 30, 2020, and 2019, our inventory valuation reserve balance, was approximately $568,000 and $139,000, respectively, and our inventory balance was $8,372,000 and $11,528,000, net of reserves, respectively.
 
 
27
 
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Our sales force and distributors sell Manufactured and Distributed Products to end users, including orthopedists, physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, sports medicine practitioners, clinics, hospitals, and consumers. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied which occurs upon the transfer of control of a product. This occurs either upon shipment or delivery of goods, depending on whether the contract is FOB origin or FOB destination. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products to a customer. Contracts sometimes allow for forms of variable consideration including rebates and incentives. In these cases, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring products to customers utilizing the most likely amount method. Rebates and incentives are estimated based on contractual terms or historical experience and a liability is maintained for rebates and incentives that have been earned but are unpaid. Revenue is reduced by estimates of potential future contractual discounts including prompt payment discounts. Provisions for contractual discounts are recorded as a reduction to revenue in the period sales are recognized. Estimates are made of the contractual discounts that will eventually be incurred. Contractual discounts are estimated based on negotiated contracts and historical experience. Shipping and handling activities are accounted for as fulfillment activities. As such, shipping and handling are not considered promised services to our customers. Costs for shipping and handling of products to customers are recorded as cost of sales.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
We must make estimates of the collectability of accounts receivable. In doing so, we analyze historical bad debt trends, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Our accounts receivable balance was $4,894,000 and $7,495,000, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $185,000 and $90,000 as of June 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively.
 
Deferred Income Taxes
 
A valuation allowance is required when there is significant uncertainty as to the realizability of deferred tax assets. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryforward periods provided for in the tax law for each tax jurisdiction. We have considered the following possible sources of taxable income when assessing the realization of our deferred tax assets:
 
future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences;
future taxable income or loss, exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards; 
tax-planning strategies; and
taxable income in prior carryback years.
 
We considered both positive and negative evidence in determining the continued need for a valuation allowance, including the following:
 
Positive evidence:
 
Current forecasts indicate that we will generate pre-tax income and taxable income in the future. However, there can be no assurance that our strategic plans will result in profitability.
A majority of our tax attributes have indefinite carryover periods.
 
Negative evidence:
 
 We have nine years of cumulative losses as of June 30, 2020.
 
 
28
 
 
We place more weight on objectively verifiable evidence than on other types of evidence and management currently believes that available negative evidence outweighs the available positive evidence. We have therefore determined that we do not meet the “more likely than not” threshold that deferred tax assets will be realized. Accordingly, a valuation allowance is required. Any reversal of the valuation allowance will favorably impact our results of operations in the period of reversal. As of June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, we recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred income tax assets. The anticipated accumulated net operating loss carryforward as of June 30, 2020, is approximately $9,237,000, which will begin to expire in 2037.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the Form 10-K for a description of recent accounting pronouncements.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financing
 
We have no off-balance sheet debt or similar obligations. We have no transactions or obligations with related parties that are not disclosed, consolidated into or reflected in our reported results of operations or financial position. We do not guarantee any third-party debt.
 
Business Plan and Outlook

This past year our focus has been on driving profitability in our legacy business through multiple cost-reduction initiatives, while continuing to build our restorative products platform for long-term success. We are confident that the steps we have taken will position the company for success moving forward. In fiscal 2021 we are focused on executing our strategies as follows:
 
Drive sales through enhancing our partnerships with key strategic accounts, optimizing our sales channels, demand generation, and continuing to deliver superior customer care;
Increase our operating profitability through disciplined management of our financial ratios, cost reduction initiatives, and product portfolio management;
Pursue merger and acquisition opportunities in our core markets through pipeline management, disciplined valuation, and superior execution; and
Bolster our communication with the investor community through investor conferences, non-deal road shows, and calls with equity research analysts and investors. 
 
We are actively pursuing an acquisition strategy to consolidate other manufacturers and distributors in our core markets (i.e. physical therapy, rehabilitation, orthopedics, pain management, and athletic training). We are primarily seeking candidates that fall into the following categories:
 
Manufacturers in markets where we have a competitive advantage;
Distributors that extend geographic reach or provide different channel access;
Tuck-in manufacturers / distributors in adjacent markets; and
Value-oriented businesses with growth potential, stable margins, and cash flow.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Dynatronics Corporation
 
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dynatronics Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  
 
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
We have served as the Company’s auditor since October 24, 2016.

DYNATRONICS CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
Note 1.  Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Description of Business
 
Dynatronics Corporation (“Company,” “Dynatronics”) is a leading medical device company committed to providing high-quality restorative products designed to accelerate optimal health. The Company designs, manufactures, and sells a broad range of restorative products for clinical use in physical therapy, rehabilitation, orthopedics, pain management, and athletic training. Through its distribution channels, Dynatronics markets and sells to orthopedists, physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, sports medicine practitioners, clinics, hospitals, and consumers.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Dynatronics Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Hausmann Enterprises, LLC, Bird & Cronin, LLC and Dynatronics Distribution Company, LLC. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP). All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
 
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. Also included within cash and cash equivalents are deposits in-transit from banks for payments related to third-party credit card and debit card transactions. Cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $2,216,000 and $156,000 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Restricted cash totaled approximately $101,000 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and consisted of a certificate of deposit.
 
Inventories
 
Finished goods inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual cost using the first-in, first-out method, or net realizable value. Raw materials are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and records write-downs or write-offs based on its assessment of slow moving or obsolete inventory. The Company maintains a reserve for obsolete inventory and generally makes inventory value adjustments against the reserve.
 
Trade Accounts Receivable
 
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest, although finance charges may be applied to past due accounts. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts that is the Company’s estimate of credit risk in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on a combination of statistical analysis, historical collection patterns, customers’ current credit worthiness, the age of account balances, and general economic conditions. All account balances are reviewed on an individual basis. Account balances are charged against the allowance when the potential for recovery is considered remote. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are recognized when payment is received.
 
 
36
 
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Buildings and improvements are depreciated over estimated useful lives that range from 5 to 31 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the remaining term of the respective building lease. Machinery, office equipment, computer equipment and software and vehicles are depreciated over estimated useful lives that range from 3 to 7 years.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill resulted from the Hausmann and Bird & Cronin acquisitions. Goodwill in a business combination represents the purchase price in excess of identifiable tangible and intangible assets. Goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not amortized. Instead they are reviewed periodically for impairment.
 
The Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter or more frequently if management believes indicators of impairment exist. Such indicators could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If management concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, management conducts a quantitative goodwill impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the applicable reporting unit with its carrying value. The Company estimates the fair values of its reporting units using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company’s evaluation of goodwill completed during the year resulted in no impairment losses.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
Long–lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed are separately presented in the balance sheet at the lower of net book value or fair value less estimated disposition costs, and are no longer depreciated.
 
Intangible Assets
 
Costs associated with the acquisition of trademarks, certain trade names, license rights and non-compete agreements are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over periods ranging from 3 months to 20 years. Trade names determined to have an indefinite life are not amortized, but are required to be tested for impairment and written down, if necessary. The Company assesses indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment each fiscal year or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.
 
Leases
 
Management determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception or modification of a contract. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified asset means the lessee has both (a) the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and (b) the right to direct the use of the asset. Such assets are classified as right-of-use ("ROU") assets with a corresponding lease liability.
 
Finance and operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recorded at commencement at the present value of future minimum lease payments over the expected lease term. As the implicit discount rate for the present value calculation is not determinable in most of the Company’s leases, management uses the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement of the lease. The expected lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise such options. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Leases with an expected term of 12 months or less are not accounted for on the balance sheet and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term.
 
 
37
 
 
The Company has operating and finance leases for various administrative, manufacturing, and distribution facilities and equipment. Most of the Company’s leases include one or more options to renew and extend the lease term two years to five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at the Company's sole discretion, however, as a material economic incentive to exercise the option exists, the majority of renewals to extend the lease terms are included in the ROU assets and lease liabilities as they are reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material non-lease components, residual value guarantees, or material restrictive covenants.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied which occurs upon the transfer of control of a product. This occurs either upon shipment or delivery of goods, depending on whether the contract is FOB origin or FOB destination. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring products to a customer. Contracts sometimes allow for forms of variable consideration including rebates and incentives. In these cases, the Company estimates the amount of consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring products to customers utilizing the most likely amount method. Rebates and incentives are estimated based on contractual terms or historical experience and a liability is maintained for rebates and incentives that have been earned but are unpaid. Revenue is reduced by estimates of potential future contractual discounts including prompt payment discounts. Provisions for contractual discounts are recorded as a reduction to revenue in the period sales are recognized. Estimates are made of the contractual discounts that will eventually be incurred. Contractual discounts are estimated based on negotiated contracts and historical experience. Shipping and handling activities are accounted for as fulfillment activities. As such, shipping and handling are not considered promised services to our customers. Costs for shipping and handling of products to customers are recorded as cost of sales. 
 
Research and Development Costs
 
Research and development ("R&D") costs are expensed as incurred. R&D expense for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 totaled $95,000 and $54,000, respectively. R&D expense is included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
Product Warranty Costs
 
The Company provides a warranty on all products it manufactures for time periods ranging in length from 90 days to five years from the date of sale. Costs estimated to be incurred in connection with the Company’s product warranty programs are charged to expense as products are sold based on historical warranty rates. The Company maintains a reserve for estimated product warranty costs to be incurred related to products previously sold.
 
Net Loss per Common Share
 
Net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and, when appropriate, dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the year. Convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants are considered to be potential common shares. The computation of diluted net loss per common share does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.
 
Basic net loss per common share is the amount of net loss for the year available to each weighted-average share of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is the amount of net loss for the year available to each weighted-average share of common stock outstanding during the year and to each potential common share outstanding during the year, unless inclusion of potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
 
Outstanding options, warrants and convertible preferred stock for common shares not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share because they were anti-dilutive, totaled 11,211,018 as of June 30, 2020 and 11,764,083 as of June 30, 2019.
 
 
38
 
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company recognizes an asset or liability for the deferred income tax consequences of all temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Accounting standards require the consideration of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if it is “more likely than not” that some component or all of the benefits of deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The Company may recognize the tax benefits from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
  
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award determined by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is recognized as expense over the applicable vesting period of the stock award (zero to five years) using the straight-line method.
 
Concentration of Risk
 
In the normal course of business, the Company provides unsecured credit to its customers. Most of the Company’s customers are involved in the medical industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for probable losses which, when realized, have been within the range of management’s expectations. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which at times may exceed federally insured limits.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had approximately $2,100,000 and $0, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents in excess of federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
 
Certain of the Company's employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. As of June 30, 2020, approximately 19% of the Company's employees were covered by a collective bargaining agreement scheduled to expire in 2022. 
 
Operating Segments
 
The Company operates in one line of business: the development, manufacturing, marketing, and distribution of a broad line of medical products for the orthopedic, physical therapy and similar markets. As such, the Company has only one reportable operating segment.
 
Use of Estimates
 
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the impairment and useful lives of long-lived assets; valuation allowances for doubtful accounts receivables, deferred income taxes, and obsolete inventories; accrued product warranty costs; and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases ("Topic 842"). This guidance replaces the prior lease accounting guidance in its entirety. The underlying principle of the new standard is the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities by lessees for substantially all leases. The standard also requires additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The Company adopted Topic 842 as of July 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective method. Under this method, financial results reported in periods prior to July 1, 2019 are unchanged. The Company elected the ‘package of practical expedients’ which permits the Company to carryforward the historical lease classification. Adoption of the standard resulted in the recording of additional ROU assets and lease liabilities for operating leases of $4,203,925 as of July 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on net loss.
 
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (“Topic 740”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of the standard requires certain changes to be made prospectively, with some changes to be made retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its financial condition and results of operations.
 
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which is intended to simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The guidance allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements. 
 
Note 2.  Acquisitions

On October 2, 2017, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Bird & Cronin, LLC, completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Bird & Cronin, Inc. (“Bird & Cronin”), a manufacturer and distributor of orthopedic soft bracing products. The purchase price was subject to an earn-out payment ranging from $500,000 to $1,500,000, based on future sales. The earn-out liability was reduced by $375,000 in fiscal year 2019, with the change in the fair value of the earn-out liability being included in other income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The earn-out liability was $0 and $500,000 as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, reflecting payments during the year ended June 30, 2020 totaling $500,000.

Note 7.  Line of Credit
 
The Company has a line of credit with Bank of the West (“Line of Credit”) available pursuant to a loan and security agreement, as amended (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), that matures on January 15, 2022. The Company’s obligations under the Line of Credit are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Line of Credit requires a lockbox arrangement and contains affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the Company's ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee indebtedness, incur liens, dispose of assets, engage in mergers and consolidations, make acquisitions or other investments, make changes in the nature of its business, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The agreement also contains financial covenants including a minimum monthly consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio which only applies when the excess availability amount under the Line of Credit is less than the greater of $1,000,000 or 10% of the borrowing base. As amended, the Loan and Security Agreement provides for revolving credit borrowings in an amount up to the lesser of $11,000,000 or the calculated borrowing base. The borrowing base is computed monthly and is equal to the sum of stated percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory, less a reserve. Amounts outstanding bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% (approximately 2.4% as of June 30, 2020). The Line of Credit is subject to a quarterly unused line fee of .25%.
  
Borrowings on the Line of Credit were $1,012,934 and $ 6,540,639 as of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, there was approximately $5,040,000 available to borrow.

Note 8.  Long-Term Debt
 
As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, long-term debt was $3,604,935 and $303,349, respectively. Long-term debt is primarily comprised of the mortgage loan on the Company's office and manufacturing facility in Tennessee maturing in 2021 and Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) loan. 
 
On April 29, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note (the “Note”) with Bank of the West to evidence a loan to the Company in the amount of $3,477,412 under the PPP established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”).
 
In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the Company expects to use the proceeds from the loan exclusively for qualified expenses under the PPP, including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility costs, as further detailed in the CARES Act and applicable guidance issued by the SBA. Interest will accrue on the outstanding balance of the Note at a rate of 1.00% per annum. The Company intends to apply for forgiveness of all amounts due under the Note, in an amount equal to the sum of qualified expenses under the PPP incurred during the 24 weeks following initial disbursement. Notwithstanding the Company's expected eligibility to apply for forgiveness, no assurance can be given that the Company will obtain forgiveness of all or any portion of amounts due under the Note.
 
Subject to any forgiveness granted under the PPP, the Note is scheduled to mature two years from the date of initial disbursement under the Note and is payable in monthly installments beginning 10 months after the completion of the 24 week covered period. The Note may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty. The Note contains customary provisions related to events of default, including, among others, failure to make payments, bankruptcy, breaches of representations, significant changes in ownership, and material adverse effects. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the collection of all amounts owing under the Note, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against us. The Company's obligations under the Note are not secured by any collateral or personal guarantees.
 
Long-term debt consists of the following as of June 30:

Quarterly, the Company assesses the likelihood by jurisdiction that its net deferred income tax assets will be recovered. Based on the weight of all available evidence, both positive and negative, the Company records a valuation allowance against deferred income tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that a future tax benefit will not be realized. When there is a change in judgment concerning the recovery of deferred income tax assets in future periods, a valuation allowance is recorded into earnings during the quarter in which the change in judgment occurred. As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company has established a full valuation allowance.
 
The anticipated accumulated net operating loss carryforward as of June 30, 2020, is approximately $9,237,000, which will begin to expire in 2037. The Company has no uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2020.

In March 2020, The Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners LLC, pursuant to which the Company arranged to offer and sell shares of common stock in an at-the-market offering (“ATM”) under a registration statement previously filed on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On March 13, 2020, the Company filed a Prospectus Supplement amending the registration statement and commenced the ATM. Under the terms of the equity distribution agreement, the Company may sell shares of common stock in an aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000, with Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners LLC acting as our sales agents at the market prices prevailing on The Nasdaq Capital Market at the time of the sale of such shares. The Company will pay Canaccord Genuity LLC and Roth Capital Partners, LLC a fixed commission rate equal to 3.0% of the gross sale price per share of common stock sold.
 
In April 2020, the Company sold an aggregate of 3,200,585 shares of common stock under the equity distribution agreement in the ATM. Offering costs were incurred totaling $238,168, inclusive of commissions paid to the sales agents at a fixed rate of 3.0%, together with legal, accounting and filing fees. Net proceeds from the sale of the shares totaled $2,286,939. Proceeds were used to strengthen the Company's liquidity and working capital position.
 
The Company issued 730,592 shares of common stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 and 302,105 shares of common stock during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 as payment of preferred stock dividends. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 1,218,000 shares of common stock in conversion of 1,218,000 shares of preferred stock. 
 
The Company maintains an equity incentive plan for the benefit of employees.

Share remaining available under the 2015 Equity Plan are eligible for use under the 2018 Equity Plan. Incentive and nonqualified stock options, restricted common stock, stock appreciation rights, and other share-based awards may be granted under the plans including performance-based awards. As of June 30, 2020, 463,978 shares of common stock remained authorized and reserved for issuance, but were not granted under the terms of the 2018 Equity Plan.

Note 14.  Convertible Preferred Stock and Common Stock Warrants
 
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had issued and outstanding a total of 1,992,000 shares of Series A 8% Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) and 1,459,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred"). The Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred are convertible into a total of 3,451,000 shares of common stock. Dividends payable on these preferred shares accrue at the rate of 8% per year and are payable quarterly in stock or cash at the option of the Company. The Company generally pays the dividends on the preferred stock by issuing shares of our common stock. The formula for paying these dividends using common stock in lieu of cash can change the effective yield on the dividend to more or less than 8% depending on the market price of the common stock at the time of issuance. Certain redemption rights are attached to the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred, but none of the redemption rights for cash are deemed outside the control of the Company. The redemption rights deemed outside the control of the Company require common stock payments or an increase in the dividend rate. The Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred includes a liquidation preference under which investors would receive cash equal to the stated value of their stock plus unpaid dividends. A forced conversion can be initiated based on a formula related to share price and trading volumes. As of June 30, 2020, there were also issued and outstanding 230,000 shares of Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”). The Series C Preferred shares are non-voting, do not receive dividends, and have no liquidation preferences or redemption rights. During the year ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued 1,218,000 shares of common stock upon conversion of 1,210,000 shares of Series C Preferred and 8,000 shares of Series A Preferred.
 
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had issued and outstanding a total of 6,738,500 warrants to purchase 1.5 shares of Common Stock, exercisable at $2.75 per share for cash only. The warrants are exercisable for 72 months from the date of issuance and carry a put feature in the event of a change in control. The put right is not subject to derivative accounting as all equity holders are treated the same in the event of a change in control.
 
In connection with each of the issuances of the Series A Preferred, the Series B Preferred and the Series C Preferred, the Company recorded a deemed dividend related to a beneficial conversion feature, which reflects the difference between the underlying common share value of the Series A Preferred, the Series B Preferred, and the Series C Preferred shares as if converted, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the applicable transaction, less an amount of the purchase price assigned to the Series A Preferred, the Series B Preferred or the Series C Preferred, as applicable, in an allocation of purchase price between the preferred shares and common stock purchase warrants that were issued with the Series A Preferred, the Series B Preferred and the Series C Preferred. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded deemed dividend discount accretion of $173,758 associated with the conversion of preferred shares.
 
The Company chose to pay preferred stock dividends by issuing common shares valued at $745,714 in fiscal year 2020 and $776,014 in fiscal year 2019. At June 30, 2020, there was $180,123 in accrued dividends payable for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, which were paid by issuing 207,736 shares of common stock in July 2020.
 
In case of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, preferred stock has preferential treatment beginning with the Series A Preferred, then the Series B Preferred, followed by the Series C Preferred. After preferential amounts, if any, to which the holders of preferred stock may be entitled, the holders of all outstanding shares of common stock shall be entitled to share ratably in the remaining assets of the Company. Liquidation preference is as follows:
 
 
 
Shares Designated

  1,992,000

Note 15.  Accrued Payroll and Benefits Expense
 
As of June 30, 2020 and 2019, accrued payroll and benefits expense was $1,204,964 and $1,373,481, respectively. Included in the balance as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, was $199,914 and $310,903, respectively, of accrued severance expense maturing in less than one year. The Company recognized $533,706 and $300,011 in severance expense during the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Severance expense is included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
 
Note 16.  Employee Benefit Plan  
 
The Company has deferred savings plans which qualify under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k). The plans covers all employees of Dynatronics Corporation, who have at least 12 months of service and who are age 21 or older. For fiscal year 2020, the Company made matching contributions of 50% of the first 6% of each employee’s contribution up to a maximum of $3,000, with a six-year vesting schedule. For fiscal year 2019, the Company made matching contributions of 25% to 100% of the first 5% of each employee’s contribution, with a six-year vesting schedule. Contributions to the plan for fiscal years 2020 and 2019 were $206,366 and $322,728, respectively. Matching contributions for future years are at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
 
Note 17.  Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $2,316,301 in cash, compared to $256,030 as of June 30, 2019. During fiscal year 2020 and 2019, the Company had positive cash flows from operating activities. The Company believes that its existing revenue stream, cash flows from consolidated operations, current capital resources, and borrowing availability under the Line of Credit provide sufficient liquidity to fund operations through at least September 30, 2021.
 
As of June 30, 2020 there was approximately $5,040,000 of additional borrowing capacity available on the Line of Credit. To fully execute on its business strategy of acquiring other entities, the Company will need to raise additional capital. Absent additional financing, the Company may have to curtail its current acquisition strategy.
 
Note 18. Revenue
 
On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which establishes principles for recognizing revenue and reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance was applied using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized, therefore, no adjustments were recorded to the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. For the year ended June 30, 2019, revenue recognized pursuant to ASC 606 would not have differed materially had revenue continued to be recognized under ASC 605.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the rebate liability was $247,388 and $287,430, respectively. The rebate liability is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
 
As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, the allowance for sales discounts was $8,000 and $14,500, respectively. The allowance for sales discounts is included in trade accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
              We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding any required disclosure. In designing and evaluating these disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2020. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of June 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at a reasonable assurance level, to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is (b) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020. In making this assessment, management used the criteria that have been set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our evaluation under the COSO criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2020 is effective.
 
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting since we are a smaller reporting company under the rules of the SEC. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the year ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

B. Executive’s last day of employment with the Company is October 7, 2020 (the “Separation Date”).

C. The Company has offered to provide Executive with pay continuation through the Termination Date, in addition to other benefits that Executive otherwise would not is entitled to receive, in consideration for Executive entering into this Agreement, and agreeing to, and complying with, the promises, covenants, agreements, obligations, releases and waivers contained herein.
 
D. Executive is willing to enter into this Agreement, as well as an attestation of this Agreement after his Separation Date and be bound by the promises, covenants, agreements, conditions, waivers and releases set forth herein in exchange for the benefits being offered by the Company in this Agreement.
 
AGREEMENT
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, covenants, agreements, releases and waivers contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

The Executive warrants and represents that as of the Separation Date, he has returned all Company property, including identification cards or badges, access codes or devices, keys, laptops, computers, telephones, mobile phones, hand-held electronic devices, credit cards, electronically stored documents or files, physical files, and any other Company property in the Executive’s possession; provided, however, that Executive may retain certain Company property, approved by the Company CEO, for the performance of his ongoing duties as a director of the Company, as set forth in Section 3 or his ongoing duties under that certain Consulting Agreement dated October 8, 2020 entered into between the parties.
 
2. Resignation from All Officer Positions. Effective on the Execution Date, the Executive shall be deemed to have resigned from all positions that the Executive holds as an officer of the Company or any of its affiliates.

As consideration for the Executive’s execution of, non-revocation of, and compliance with this Agreement, including the Executive’s waiver and release of claims in Section 8 and other post-termination obligations, and Executive’s subsequent execution of an attestation within then (10) days after his Separation Date, the Company agrees to provide the following separation benefits (“Separation Benefits”) to which the Executive is not otherwise entitled:
 
(a) Pay continuation from the Execution Date to the Separation Date, at Executive’s current base salary rate, less all relevant deductions for benefits, taxes and other withholdings, which shall be payable in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll practices.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to provide any of the Separation Benefits prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement as defined in Section 13. The Executive understands, acknowledges, and agrees that these benefits exceed what the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive on separation from employment, and that these benefits are being given as consideration in exchange for executing this Agreement and the general release and restrictive covenants contained in it. Except for Executive’s ability to continue vesting in restricted stock units and/or stock options granted to him as an employee provided he meets the definition of “continuous service” as defined in the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, the Executive further acknowledges that the Executive is not entitled to any additional payment or consideration not specifically referenced in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed as an express or implied policy or practice of the Company to provide these or other benefits to any individuals other than the Executive.

The Parties hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of these courts and waive the defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding in such venue.
 
(d) Dispute Resolution. All disputes and controversies arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively by the state and federal courts located in Salt Lake County in the State of Utah, and each Party hereto agrees to submit to the jurisdiction of said courts and agrees that venue shall lie exclusively with such courts. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which such Party may raise now, or hereafter have, to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR PARTIES, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF.

(g) Amendments; Waivers. This Agreement may not be modified, amended, or changed except by an instrument in writing, signed by Executive and by a duly authorized representative of the Company other than Executive. No waiver or consent shall be binding except in a writing signed by the Party making the waiver or giving the consent. No waiver of any provision or consent to any action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.
 
(h) Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”), including the exceptions thereto, and shall be construed and administered in accordance with such intent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, payments provided under this Agreement may only be made upon an event and in a manner that complies with Section 409A or an applicable exemption. Any payments under this Agreement that may be excluded from Section 409A either as separation pay due to an involuntary separation from service, as a short-term deferral, or as a settlement payment pursuant to a bona fide legal dispute shall be excluded from Section 409A to the maximum extent possible. For purposes of Section 409A, any installment payments provided under this Agreement shall each be treated as a separate payment. To the extent required under Section 409A, any payments to be made under this Agreement in connection with a termination of employment shall only be made if such termination constitutes a “separation from service” under Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company makes no representations that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement comply with Section 409A and in no event shall Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest, or other expenses that may be incurred by Executive on account of non-compliance with Section 409A.

vi.
any other information that Consultant should, in the exercise of reasonable business judgment, recognize as confidential; and
vii.

B. Essential Obligation. Consultant shall retain the Confidential Information in secret, shall not utilize the Confidential Information for the benefit of Consultant or any third party, and shall not divulge, furnish, or make accessible Confidential Information to any third party. Consultant shall use the Confidential Information solely and exclusively for the purpose of performing under or receiving the benefit of the Agreement. Upon the earlier of DYNA’s request, or the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, Consultant will return to DYNA all documents, copies thereof, including electronic or digital copies, and other material fixed in tangible form in the possession of Consultant that pertains to the business of DYNA, including, but not limited to, Confidential Information, as well as all copies, adaptations and independent compilations thereof in Consultant’s possession.
 
C. Compelled Disclosure. In the event Consultant becomes legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information, Consultant shall provide the Company with prompt notice so that Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event that such a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Consultant shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which in the opinion of Consultant’s counsel is legally required and shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded to the Confidential Information.
 
D. Return or Destruction of Confidential Information. Upon termination of this Agreement or a Statement of Work, or earlier request, Consultant must return or destroy all Confidential Information of Company, and upon request, provide Company written certification attesting to its destruction.

B. It is expressly agreed between Company and Consultant that if any Work Products are copyrightable and such Work Products fall within the definition of a “work made for hire” as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101 and § 201(b), such Work Products will be considered a “work made for hire” and all copyrights and copyright registrations related to such copyrightable Work Products will be the sole and exclusive property of Company.

Millstone shall be liable only for proven actual damages incurred as a direct result of Millstone’s material breach of this Agreement, and not for any other reason except Millstone’s gross negligence, willful misconduct. MILLSTONE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR SPECIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES TO CUSTOMER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOSS OF PROFIT OR LOSS OF USE EVEN IF MILLSTONE IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES.

AS SUCH, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION HEREIN TO THE CONTRARY, CUSTOMER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT CUSTOMER ASSUMES THE RISK OF LOSS AND MILLSTONE SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO ANY OR ALL CUSTOMER PROPERTY IN MILLSTONE’S FACILITIES, IN TRANSIT, OR STORED OFF-SITE, FOR LOSS RESULTING FROM ANY REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS RESULTING FROM FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY, FAILURE OF MILLSTONE’S ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS, OR ANY CAUSE REASONABLY BEYOND THE CONTROL OF MILLSTONE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACTS OF NATURE AND CHANGES IN APPLICABLE LAWS OR REGULATIONS), EXCEPT THAT THIS PROVISION SHALL NOT APPLY TO LOSS RESULTING FROM MILLSTONE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

6.
Indemnity.
 
a)
Millstone agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless Customer, its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, managers, agents and representatives, (collectively, "Customer Indemnified Parties") to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Customer Indemnified Parties in any third party claim, action, or lawsuit, to the extent such losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses are finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (or by specific reference in a settlement of litigation consented to by Millstone) to have been directly caused by Millstone’s breach of a material obligation of Millstone under this Agreement, except to the extent that such losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses resulted from Customer’s negligence or willful misconduct. If Customer seeks indemnification hereunder from Millstone with respect to a third party claim, Customer will notify Millstone as promptly as practicable and give Millstone an opportunity to defend the claim. Customer will extend reasonable cooperation in connection with such defense. If Millstone fails to defend the claim within a reasonable time, Customer may assume the defense thereof, and Millstone will repay Customer for all expenses incurred in connection with such defense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, settlement payments and payments of judgments) until Millstone assumes such defense. The foregoing indemnity obligations will extend only to the losses, costs or expenses actually suffered by Customer, reduced by any offsetting funds or services received from any third party including any insurer. Customer Indemnified Parties must approve any resolution or course of action in a matter that could directly or indirectly have any adverse effect on Customer Indemnified Parties or could serve as a precedent for other matters. Millstone’s indemnification obligations shall be subject to the terms and limitations set forth in Section 5 and Section 6(c).
 
b)
Customer agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless Millstone, its subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, managers, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, “Millstone Indemnified Parties”), to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses incurred by Millstone Indemnified Parties in any third party claim, action, or lawsuit, to the extent such losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses are directly caused by (i) any breach of or failure by Customer to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or material obligations set forth in this Agreement, (ii) Customer’s property or products violating a third party’s rights, including without limitation, a third party’s intellectual property rights, (iii) Customer’s breach or violation of any law, regulation, or ruling, or (iv) any act, error or omission (active or passive) constituting negligence or willful misconduct by Customer or its officers, directors, employees, agents, or affiliates. However, Customer has no obligation to indemnify Millstone Indemnified Parties to the extent the liability for which Millstone Indemnified Parties seek indemnification was caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of any Millstone Indemnified Parties. Customer will respond promptly to any matter described above, and defend Millstone Indemnified Parties. Customer will reimburse Millstone Indemnified Parties for all costs of defending the matter, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Millstone Indemnified Parties if Customer or Customer’s insurer does not assume defense because of actual or potential conflicts of interest. Millstone Indemnified Parties must approve any resolution or course of action in a matter that could directly or indirectly have any adverse effect on Millstone Indemnified Parties or could serve as a precedent for other matters.

Insurance. Millstone shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain insurance in form and coverage in accordance with industry standard business practices and standards.

Customer shall, at its own cost and expense, maintain insurance in form and coverage in accordance with industry standard business practices and standards, but in any event, with minimum liability limits of [***]. Such coverage limit shall in no way limit Customer’s liability to Millstone hereunder. As set forth in Section 5, Customer shall be responsible for insuring all of Customer’s products, implants, kits and any other Customer property while at Millstone facilities, in transit, or stored at off-site locations. Customer shall provide certificate(s) of insurance to Millstone evidencing compliance with the foregoing upon Millstone’s reasonable request. Customer shall provide at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to Millstone of any cancellation of any of Customer’s insurance policies relevant to coverage for indemnification, risk of loss, or any other liability of Customer hereunder.

Proprietary Information does not include (i) information lawfully in the possession of the receiving party prior to the disclosure by the disclosing party, (ii) information which becomes known to the general public through no act or omission of the receiving party and (iii) information which is lawfully disclosed to the receiving party by a third party. Neither Millstone nor Customer shall use, reproduce, copy or disclose any of the other party’s Proprietary Information, in whole or in part, without the written consent of the other party, except that Proprietary Information of one party may be used, reproduced, copied or disclosed to others by the other party on a confidential basis when such use, reproduction, copy or disclosure is necessary for the receiving party to perform Services, any Additional Services and/or any other covenants or other obligations under this Agreement.
