RISK FACTORS

 

Readers and prospective investors in our common stock should carefully consider the following risk factors as well as the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

 

If any of the following risks actually occurs, our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected. If this were to happen, the value of our common stock could decline, and if you invest in our common stock, you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

The discussion below highlights some important risks we have identified related to our business and operations and an investment in shares of our common stock, but these should not be assumed to be the only factors that could affect our future performance and condition, financial and otherwise. We do not have a policy of updating or revising forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by law, and silence by management over time should not be construed to mean that actual events are occurring as estimated in such forward-looking statements.

 

Risks Relating to Business and Financial Condition

 

Because we have historically experienced losses, if we are unable to achieve profitability, our financial condition and company could suffer.

 

Since the inception of our business we have historically incurred losses. While we have increased revenues significantly, we have not yet been able to achieve profitability due to significant investments in our growth. Our ability to achieve consistent profitability depends on our ability to generate sales through our technology platform and advertising model, while maintaining reasonable expense levels. If we do not achieve sustainable profitability, it may impact our ability to continue our operations.

 

Our business and growth may suffer if we are unable to attract and retain key employees.

 

Our success depends on the expertise of our executive officers and certain other key technical personnel. It may be difficult to find sufficiently qualified individuals to replace management or other key technical personnel in the event of death, disability or resignation, thus frustrating our ability to implement our business plan, which could negatively affect our operating results.

 

Furthermore, our ability to expand operations to accommodate our anticipated growth will also depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified media, management, finance, marketing, sales and technical personnel. However, competition for these types of employees is intense due to the limited number of qualified professionals. Our ability to meet our business development objectives will depend in part on our ability to recruit, train and retain top quality people with advanced skills who understand our technology and business. We believe that we will be able to attract competent employees, but no assurance can be given that we will be successful in this regard. If we are unable to engage and retain the necessary personnel, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

 

Our failure to obtain retain or attract additional customers could prevent us from successfully executing our business plan.

 

We currently work with many leading pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Auxilium, Actavis, AstraZeneca, Alcon, Daichi Sankyo, Shire, Activis, and others. Our failure to retain existing customers or expand with new customers could negatively impact our business.

 

We are dependent on a concentrated group of customers

 

Our revenues are concentrated in approximately 25 customers, primarily large pharmaceutical manufacturers and large advertising agencies. Approximately 64% of our revenue came from our largest five customers. Loss of one or more of these customers could have a significant negative impact on our operating results.

 

 

We may be unable to support our technology to further scale our operations successfully.

 

Our plan is to grow rapidly through further integration of our technology in electronic platforms. Our growth will place significant demands on our management and technology development, as well as our financial, administrative and other resources. We cannot guarantee that any of the systems, procedures and controls we put in place will be adequate to support the commercialization of our operations. Our operating results will depend substantially on the ability of our officers and key employees to manage changing business conditions and to implement and improve our financial, administrative and other resources. If we are unable to respond to and manage changing business conditions, or the scale of our products, services and operations, then the quality of our services, our ability to retain key personnel and our business could be harmed.

 

If we are unable to maintain our contracts with electronic prescription platforms, our business will suffer.

 

We are reliant upon our contracts with leading electronic prescribing platforms, including Allscripts, Dr. First, Quest Diagnostics, and others. We will need to maintain these relationships as well as diversify them. The inability to do so could adversely impact our business. Loss of any of these contracts would adversely affect our revenue and impede our ability to grow revenues.

 

Our agreements with electronic prescription platforms are subject to audit, which could subject us to additional costs that might affect our results of operations.

 

Our agreements with our electronic prescription platform partners provide for revenue sharing payments to the platform partners based on the revenue we generate through the platform. These payments are subject to audit by our partners, at their cost, and if there is a dispute as to the calculation, we may be liable for additional payments. If an underpayment is determined to be in excess of a certain amount, for example 10%, some agreements would require us to pay for the cost of the audit, as well.

 

Developing and implementing new and updated applications, features and services for our portals may be more difficult than expected, may take longer and cost more than expected and may not result in sufficient increases in revenue to justify the costs.

 

We have completed the development and migration of SampleMD 2.0’s on-demand, rule based content delivery platform. The system can now manage up to 1 million rules and return the appropriate content within 1 second. This allows unsurpassed response time to avoid delays, and the ability to meet the upcoming dramatic scale we expect. Despite the launch of Sample MD 2.0, attracting and retaining users of our portals requires us to continue to improve the technology underlying those portals and to continue to develop new and updated applications, features and services for those portals. If we are unable to do so on a timely basis or if we are unable to implement new applications, features and services without disruption to our existing ones, we may lose potential users and clients. The costs of development of these enhancements may negatively impact our ability to achieve profitability.

 

We rely on a combination of internal development, strategic relationships, licensing and acquisitions to develop our portals and related applications, features and services. Our development and/or implementation of new technologies, applications, features and services may cost more than expected, may take longer than originally expected, may require more testing than originally anticipated and may require the acquisition of additional personnel and other resources. There can be no assurance that the revenue opportunities from any new or updated technologies, applications, features or services will justify the amounts spent.

 

If we are unable to adhere to the regulatory and competitive climate in which we operate, we could be materially and negatively impacted.

 

Do to the labyrinth of regulations in healthcare space, state and federal, as well as political sensitivity of healthcare delivery our business model could be negatively impacted or fail.

 

The markets in which we operate are competitive, continually evolving and, in some cases, subject to rapid change.

 

●

Our portals face competition from numerous other companies, both in attracting users and in generating revenue from advertisers and sponsors. We compete for users with online services and Web sites that provide savings on medications and healthcare products, including both commercial sites and not-for-profit sites. We compete for advertisers and sponsors with: health-related web sites; general purpose consumer web sites that offer specialized health sub-channels; other high-traffic web sites that include both healthcare-related and non-healthcare-related content and services; search engines that provide specialized health search; and advertising networks that aggregate traffic from multiple sites.

 

 

●

Our healthcare provider portals compete with: providers of healthcare decision-support tools and online health management applications; wellness and disease management vendors; and health information services and health management offerings of healthcare benefits companies and their affiliates.

 

Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical, product development, marketing and other resources than we do. These organizations may be better known than we are and have more customers or users than we do. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against these organizations or any alliances they have formed or may form. Since there are no substantial barriers to entry into the markets in which our public portals participate, we expect that competitors will continue to enter these markets.

 

Developments in the healthcare industry could adversely affect our business

 

Most of our revenue is derived from the healthcare industry and could be affected by changes affecting healthcare spending. We are particularly dependent on pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies for our advertising and sponsorship revenue.

 

General reductions in expenditures by healthcare industry participants could result from, among other things:

 

government regulation or private initiatives that affect the manner in which healthcare providers interact with patients, payers or other healthcare industry participants, including changes in pricing or means of delivery of healthcare products and services;

 

●

government regulation prohibiting the use of coupons by patients covered by federally funded health insurance programs;

 

●

consolidation of healthcare industry participants;

 

●

reductions in governmental funding for healthcare; and

 

●

adverse changes in business or economic conditions affecting healthcare payers or providers, pharmaceutical, biotechnology or medical device companies or other healthcare industry participants.

 

Even if general expenditures by industry participants remain the same or increase, developments in the healthcare industry may result in reduced spending in some or all of the specific market segments that we serve or are planning to serve. For example, use of our products and services could be affected by:

 

●

changes in the design of health insurance plans;

 

●

a decrease in the number of new drugs or medical devices coming to market; and

 

●

decrease in marketing expenditures by pharmaceutical or medical device companies, including as a result of governmental regulation or private initiatives that discourage or prohibit advertising or sponsorship activities by pharmaceutical or medical device companies.

 

In addition, our customers’ expectations regarding pending or potential industry developments may also affect their budgeting processes and spending plans with respect to products and services of the types we provide.

 

The healthcare industry has changed significantly in recent years and we expect that significant changes will continue to occur. However, the timing and impact of developments in the healthcare industry are difficult to predict. We cannot assure you that the markets for our products and services will continue to exist at current levels or that we will have adequate technical, financial and marketing resources to react to changes in those markets.

 

 

Because we are embroiled in various lawsuits from time to time with uncertain consequences, the outcome of potential judgments may negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

 

We are currently involved in litigation and other disputes, as described in Item 3 of this report. As we continue to grow, we can expect to have to deal with lawsuits that affect our business. Lawsuits are uncertain and involve a substantial degree of risk. If we are unable to successfully prosecute or defend these actions, our financial condition and results of operations could suffer.

 

Our success is dependent in part on obtaining, maintaining and enforcing our proprietary rights and our ability to avoid infringing on the proprietary rights of others.

 

We seek patent protection for those inventions and technologies for which we believe such protection is suitable and is likely to provide a competitive advantage to us. Because patent applications in the United States are maintained in secrecy until either the patent application is published or a patent is issued, we may not be aware of third-party patents, patent applications and other intellectual property relevant to our products that may block our use of our intellectual property or may be used in third-party products that compete with our products and processes. In the event a competitor or other party successfully challenges our products, processes, patents or licenses or claims that we have infringed upon their intellectual property, we could incur substantial litigation costs defending against such claims, be required to pay royalties, license fees or other damages or be barred from using the intellectual property at issue, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

We also rely substantially on trade secrets, proprietary technology, nondisclosure and other contractual agreements, and technical measures to protect our technology, application, design, and manufacturing know-how, and work actively to foster continuing technological innovation to maintain and protect our competitive position. We cannot assure you that steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property and other contractual agreements for our business will be adequate, that our competitors will not independently develop or patent substantially equivalent or superior technologies or be able to design around patents that we may receive, or that our intellectual property will not be misappropriated.

 

Our business will suffer if our network systems fail or become unavailable.

 

A reduction in the performance, reliability and availability of our network infrastructure would harm our ability to distribute our products to our users, as well as our reputation and ability to attract and retain customers. Our systems and operations could be damaged or interrupted by fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure, Internet breakdown, earthquake and similar events. Our systems could also be subject to viruses, break-ins, sabotage, acts of terrorism, acts of vandalism, hacking, cyber-terrorism and similar misconduct. We might not carry adequate business interruption insurance to compensate us for losses that may occur from a system outage. Any system error or failure that causes interruption in availability of our product or an increase in response time could result in a loss of potential customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we suffer sustained or repeated interruptions, then our products and services could be less attractive to our users and our business would be materially harmed.

 

If we are unable to manage growth, our operations could be adversely affected.

 

Our progress is expected to require the full utilization of our management, financial and other resources. Our ability to manage growth effectively will depend on our ability to improve and expand operations, including our financial and management information systems, and to recruit, train and manage personnel. There can be no absolute assurance that management will be able to manage growth effectively.

 

If we do not properly manage the growth of our business, we may experience significant strains on our management and operations and disruptions in our business. Various risks arise when companies and industries grow quickly. If our business or industry grows too quickly, our ability to meet customer demand in a timely and efficient manner could be challenged. We may also experience development delays as we seek to meet increased demand for our products. Our failure to properly manage the growth that we or our industry might experience could negatively impact our ability to execute on our operating plan and, accordingly, could have an adverse impact on our business, our cash flow and results of operations, and our reputation with our current or potential customers.

 

 

Our business is subject to changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure.

 

Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal and state entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities have continued to develop additional regulations and requirements in response to laws enacted by Congress, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Complying with these new regulations has resulted in, and is likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative costs and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating and other business activities to compliance activities.

 

Risks Relating to Our Securities

 

If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may be unable to sell their shares.

 

Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “OPRX” on the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., an electronic inter-dealer quotation medium for equity securities. We do not currently have an active trading market. There can be no assurance that an active and liquid trading market will develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained.

 

Our securities are very thinly traded. Accordingly, it may be difficult to sell shares of our common stock without significantly depressing the value of the stock. Unless we are successful in developing continued investor interest in our stock, sales of our stock could continue to result in major fluctuations in the price of the stock.

 

Because we are subject to the “Penny Stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any listed, trading equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules which may increase the difficulty Purchasers may experience in attempting to liquidate such securities.

 

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will occur only if our stock price appreciates.

 

 

Provisions in the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws could make it very difficult for an investor to bring any legal actions against our directors or officers for violations of their fiduciary duties or could require us to pay any amounts incurred by our directors or officers in any such actions.

 

Members of our board of directors and our officers will have no liability for breaches of their fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer, except in limited circumstances, pursuant to provisions in the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws as authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes. Specifically, Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that a director or officer is not individually liable to the company or its shareholders or creditors for any damages as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that (1) the director’s or officer’s act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer and (2) his or her breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. This provision is intended to afford directors and officers protection against and to limit their potential liability for monetary damages resulting from suits alleging a breach of the duty of care by a director or officer. Accordingly, you may be unable to prevail in a legal action against our directors or officers even if they have breached their fiduciary duty of care. In addition, our Bylaws allow us to indemnify our directors and officers from and against any and all costs, charges and expenses resulting from their acting in such capacities with us. This means that if you were able to enforce an action against our directors or officers, in all likelihood, we would be required to pay any expenses they incurred in defending the lawsuit and any judgment or settlement they otherwise would be required to pay. Accordingly, our indemnification obligations could divert needed financial resources and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, and adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

All of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus are being sold by the Selling Shareholders. See “Selling Shareholders” below. We will not receive any proceeds from these sales of shares of our common stock. A portion of the shares covered by this prospectus are issuable upon exercise of the Agent Warrants to purchase our common stock. Upon any exercise of the Agent Warrants for cash, such Selling Shareholders would pay us the exercise price of the warrants. Cash received from exercise of Agent Warrants will be used for general corporate purposes. Additionally, the Warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis. If any Agent Warrants are exercised on a cashless basis, we would not receive any cash payment from such Selling Shareholders upon any exercise of such Agent Warrants.

 

The Selling Shareholders will pay any underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses incurred by the Selling Shareholders for brokerage, accounting, tax, or legal services or any other expenses incurred by the Selling Shareholders in disposing of the shares. We will bear all other costs, fees, and expenses incurred in effecting the registration of the shares covered by this prospectus, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees, and fees and expenses of our counsel and our accountants.

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

The Selling Shareholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices, or at privately negotiated prices.

 

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

 

We have prepared this prospectus to allow the Selling Shareholders or their successors, assignees or other permitted transferees to sell or otherwise dispose of, from time to time, up to 849,139 shares of our Common Stock. Of the shares of common stock being offered under this prospectus 804,139 shares are able to be acquired pursuant to the Agent Warrants we issued in connection with our March 2014 Private Placement, which Agent Warrants are currently exercisable. The remaining 45,000 Advisory Shares were issued in connection with an Advisory Agreement with Merriman. We have issued and delivered to Merriman the 45,000 shares of common stock that were earned under the Advisory Agreement as of the date of execution.

 

The Agent Warrants and Advisory Shares were sold pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. In connection therewith, the investors made to us certain representations, warranties, covenants, and conditions customary for private placement investments.

 

The table below presents information regarding the Selling Shareholders and the shares of our Common Stock that they may sell or otherwise dispose of from time to time under this prospectus. Percentages of beneficial ownership are based upon 22,912,319 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of April 17, 2015. Beneficial ownership is determined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities and including any securities that grant the Selling Shareholders the right to acquire Common Stock within 60 days of April 17, 2015. Unless otherwise noted, each person or group identified possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares, subject to community property laws where applicable.

 

 

We do not know when or in what amounts the Selling Shareholders may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares covered hereby. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the Selling Shareholders regarding the sale of any of the shares by them other than the registration rights agreement described below. The Selling Shareholders might not sell any or all of the shares covered by this prospectus or may sell or dispose of some or all of the shares other than pursuant to this prospectus. Because the Selling Shareholders may not sell or otherwise dispose of some or all of the shares covered by this prospectus and because there are currently no agreements, arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale or other disposition of any of the shares, we cannot estimate the number of the shares that will be held by the Selling Shareholders after completion of the offering.

 

Each Selling Shareholder has indicated to us that neither it nor any of its affiliates has held any position or office or had any other material relationship with us in the past three years except as described in the footnotes to the table.

 

The shares of common stock being offered under this prospectus may be offered for sale from time to time during the period the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part remains effective, by or for the accounts of the Selling Shareholders named below.

As of the time of the purchase of the securities to be resold under this Prospectus, the Selling Shareholders either received their securities as compensation in connection with investment banking services provided in connection with the March 2014 Private Placement, or purchased the securities in the ordinary course of business and represented to us that they did not have any agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

 

The Selling Shareholders, or their partners, pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors that receive the shares and their corresponding registration in accordance with the registration rights agreement to which the Selling Shareholder is party (each also a selling shareholder for purposes of this prospectus), may sell up to all of the shares of our common stock shown in the table above pursuant to this Prospectus in one or more transactions from time to time as described below under “Plan of Distribution.” However, the Selling Shareholders are not obligated to sell any of the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus.

 

Information about the Selling Shareholders may change from time to time. Any changed information with respect to which we are given notice will be included in prospectus supplements.

 

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

We are registering the shares of Common Stock to permit the resale of these shares of Common Stock by the Selling Shareholders and any of their transferees, pledgees, assignees, donees, and successors-in-interest from time to time after the date of this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale by the Selling Shareholders of the shares of Common Stock. Upon any exercise of the Agent Warrants by payment of cash, however, we will receive the exercise price of the Agent Warrants. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register the shares of Common Stock.

 

Each Selling Shareholder (the “Selling Shareholders”) of the securities and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on the OTC Bulletin Board, OTCQB or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

 

●

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

 

●

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 

●

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 

●

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 

●

privately negotiated transactions;

 

●

settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

 

●

in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Shareholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

 

●

through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 

●

a combination of any such methods of sale; or

 

●

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

 

The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Shareholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA IM-2440.

 

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Shareholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The Selling Shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

 

 

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

 

Because Selling Shareholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. The Selling Shareholders have advised us that there is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale securities by the Selling Shareholders.

 

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Shareholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale securities will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

 

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of securities of the common stock by the Selling Shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

In September 2014, we initiated litigation against Shadron Stastney, the Company’s previous CEO, in the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan as a result of a dispute related to his separation agreement. Mr. Stastney alleged damages related to the non-registration of shares that he was granted as part of his separation agreement signed in September 2013. Under the terms of the contract we are not obligated to register the shares and we deny any obligation to do so. We have requested declarative relief from the court and also requested an injunction from the court preventing Mr. Stastney from continuing to pursue his claims. Mr. Stastney has filed a counterclaim requesting damages of $450,000 related to the nonregistration of his shares.

 

In March 2015, we initiated litigation against LDM Group, LLC and PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Missouri related to the breach by LDM, and PDR as successor, of the settlement agreement signed February 28, 2014 related to previous litigation with LDM. LDM has failed to live up to its obligations under the settlement agreement including, but not limited to, not allowing us to distribute its eCoupon programs in the LDM network, not allowing us to distribute the LDM patient education programs, and not providing other information required under the settlement agreement. We are seeking enforcement of the settlement agreement and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal to the amounts paid to date to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $1.0 million, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of LDM’s breach of the agreement.

 

In March 2015, we also initiated litigation against PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the District of New Jersey as a result of PDR’s breach of the Master Services Agreement between the parties requiring PDR to exclusively use our eCoupon solution. We assert that PDR’s acquisition of LDM and the use of the LDM network to distribute coupons by PDR violates the agreement between the parties and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal the amounts we have paid to date to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $1.0 million, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of PDR’s actions.

 

In May 2015, we filed an amended complaint in the Missouri case to consolidate the two cases and withdrew the case against PDR Networks in the United States District Court in the District of New Jersey, without predjudice.

   

 

In early 2014 we learned that Mr. Milton Wilpon (“Mr. Wilpon”) of New Jersey claimed to have obtained a default judgment for approximately $929,000 in the New Jersey Superior Court, Essex County (the “Judgment”) against a predecessor of the Company and was seeking to amend the Judgment to add us as a judgment debtor. The Judgment was entered in 2006 when the predecessor of the Company was a dormant shell company and the Judgment allegedly related to a settlement agreement that was breached in 2001 (the “Settlement Agreement”). We appeared in the action and filed a motion to vacate the Judgment on several grounds, including that it appeared that the Summons and Complaint were never properly served and that plaintiff had never filed an arbitration as was required by the Settlement Agreement. In September 2014, the Court granted our motion and vacated the Judgment in its entirety and dismissed the action.

 

In December 2014, we were served with a copy of a Demand for Arbitration filed by Mr. Wilpon relating to his claims under the Settlement Agreement. On February 24, 2015, we filed an appearance with the AAA objecting to the arbitration on several grounds, including (1) that claims arose in 2001 and are barred by the applicable statute of limitations; (2) plaintiff did not properly serve and file the demand for arbitration and (3) plaintiff has not followed the proper procedure for the appointment of an arbitrator as provided by the Settlement Agreement. We petitioned the AAA to terminate the proceeding and in April 2015, the proceeding was terminated.

Overview

Common Stock

 

Our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by law or provided in any resolution adopted by our board of directors with respect to any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock will possess all voting power. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of our common stock that are present in person or represented by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock. Holders of our common stock representing fifty percent (50%) of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of our stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation. Our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

 

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created by our board of directors from time to time, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to such cash dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors from funds available therefore.

 

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created from time to time by our board of directors, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive pro rata all assets available for distribution to such holders.

 

In the event of any merger or consolidation with or into another company in connection with which shares of our common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash). Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our board of directors may become authorized to authorize preferred shares of stock and to divide the authorized shares of our preferred stock into one or more series, each of which must be so designated as to distinguish the shares of each series of preferred stock from the shares of all other series and classes. Our board of directors is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and our articles of incorporation, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of preferred stock including, but not limited to, the following:

 

(1)

The number of shares constituting that series and the distinctive designation of that series, which may be by distinguishing number, letter or title;

 

(2)

The dividend rate on the shares of that series, whether dividends will be cumulative, and if so, from which date(s), and the relative rights of priority, if any, of payment of dividends on shares of that series;

 

(3)

Whether that series will have voting rights, in addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the terms of such voting rights;

Registration Rights

 

The Shares Underlying Warrants Issued in Connection With the March 2014 Private Placement Financing

 

In connection with the March 2014 Private Placement, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement required us to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with shares sold in the March 2014 Private Placement. We filed a registration statement that went effective on May 28, 2014 to comply with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement. In addition, we granted piggyback registration rights to the Placement Agents in the March 2014 Private Placement, which comprise the shares of common stock underlying the Agent Warrants that are being registered herein. We are filing this registration statement to maintain the registered status of those shares underlying the Agent Warrants.

 

The Shares Issued in Connection with the Merriman Capital, Inc. Advisory Agreement

 

On February 23, 2015, we entered into the Advisory Agreement with Merriman. We granted registration rights to Merriman concerning the 45,000 shares in the Advisory Agreement.

 

Provisions in Our Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws That Would Delay, Defer or Prevent a Change in Control

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue a class of preferred stock commonly known as a "blank check" preferred stock. Specifically, the preferred stock may be issued from time to time by the board of directors as shares of one (1) or more classes or series. Our board of directors, subject to the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and limitations imposed by law, is authorized to adopt resolutions; to issue the shares; to fix the number of shares; to change the number of shares constituting any series; and to provide for or change the following: the voting powers; designations; preferences; and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions, including the following: dividend rights, including whether dividends are cumulative; dividend rates; terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions; redemption prices; conversion rights and liquidation preferences of the shares constituting any class or series of the preferred stock.

  

In each such case, we will not need any further action or vote by our shareholders. One of the effects of undesignated preferred stock may be to enable the board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock pursuant to the board of director's authority described above may adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock. For example, preferred stock issued by us may rank prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of common stock. Accordingly, the issuance of shares of preferred stock may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock.  We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. As a result, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

 

Share Purchase Warrants

  

We had warrants outstanding to purchase 1,854,139 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.69 as of December 31, 2014.

 

Options

 

We had options outstanding to purchase 1,307,500 shares of our common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.31 as of December 31, 2014.

 

Convertible Securities

 

We have not issued and do not have outstanding any securities convertible into shares of our common stock or any rights convertible or exchangeable into shares of our common stock.

 

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions

 

Nevada Anti-Takeover Laws

 

Nevada Revised Statutes sections 78.378 to 78.379 provide state regulation over the acquisition of a controlling interest in certain Nevada corporations unless the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation provide that the provisions of these sections do not apply. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws do not state that these provisions do not apply. The statute creates a number of restrictions on the ability of a person or entity to acquire control of a Nevada company by setting down certain rules of conduct and voting restrictions in any acquisition attempt, among other things. The statute is limited to corporations that are organized in the state of Nevada and that have 200 or more stockholders, at least 100 of whom are stockholders of record and residents of the State of Nevada; and does business in the State of Nevada directly or through an affiliated corporation. Because of these conditions, the statute currently does not apply to our company.

 

Listing of Common Stock

 

Our common stock is currently traded on the OTCQB under the trading symbol “OPRX.”

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar of our common stock is Empire Stock Transfer, 1859 Whitney Mesa Dr, Henderson, NV 89014, telephone: (702) 974-1444.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION

 FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES.

  

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the following provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the shares being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

  

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Company Highlights For 2014

 

In 2014 and into 2015, our company continues to be focused on four key operational areas:

 

	1.	Expand pharmaceutical brands and budgets
	2.	Expand physician utilization in our current EHR Network
	3.	Expand our promotional network in other EHRs and platforms
	4.	Expand infrastructure and resources to fully support and exploit each of the above three

 

Per this focus, we were able to demonstrate success in each during 2014 through:

 

●

increased sales of approximately 39% over 2013

 

●

increased promotional transactions of approximately 26% over those in 2013.

 

●

distributed eCoupons related to approximately 80 different brands.

 

●

generated operating income of approximately $400,000, excluding non-cash expenses.

 

●

successfully launching our SampleMD e-coupon solution within Quest Diagnostics’ Care360 EMR and eHealthline networks.

 

●

continued acquisition of new pharmaceutical manufacturers and brands promoting through our platforms.

 

●

hiring of key senior level personnel, including a highly experienced financial executive as CFO and a former global marketing director from AstraZeneca to lead east coast sales, while expanded our Board of Directors with seasoned executives.

 

●

acquisition of $10 million dollars in new capital to exercise the negotiated buyout of Vicis, which netted out an additional $2.8 million dollars to us, and a reduction of approximately 7 million in potential fully diluted shares.

 

●

completion and launch of the SampleMD 2.0 technology platform to support growth and are upgrading to Oracle database software to further improve system and reporting capacity.

 

●

conducting and proving an outstanding Return on Investment associated with our pharmaceutical promotions through three independent analytics firms involving multiple pharmaceutical brands and manufacturers.

 

●

unveiling VoucherDVM and engaged leading platforms to offer automated vet product savings. The company has formalized an agreement with National Veterinary Associates, a leading national hospital network, to beta launch in second quarter of 2015.

 

We generated positive cash flow from operations in 2014, excluding working capital fluctuations, and we expect to continue to do so in 2015, as well as to be profitable during the upcoming year based on the expected escalation of revenues.

 

Our success in acquiring, integrating and expanding into new promotional EHR/eRx platforms continues to grow as well. We are in the process of completing the initial rollout of brands into the Practice Fusion network, as well as discussing 2015 rollout dates with other potential networks.

 

In the fourth quarter of 2014, we signed an agreement with Practice Fusion, the largest cloud-based electronic health records (EHR) platform, to integrate and automate our patient savings and support system to enable Practice Fusion prescribers to more efficiently help patients better afford and adhere to their prescribed medications. Practice Fusion’s EHR is used by a community of more than 112,000 active medical professionals monthly with over 91 million patient records and should have a significant impact on our prescribing reach and sales once live. We anticipate that the integration will be completed early in the second quarter of 2015.

 

 

We are enforcing our agreements to integrate our promotions within LDM/PDR’s network of over 100,000 physicians and work collectively to integrate into NextGen. This delay in implementation of agreed terms has resulted in significant loss of revenue and profits to OptimizeRx. Thus we are aggressively seeking multiple strategies, including legal, to address and resolve this.

 

In March 2015, we signed an agreement with HCA Information Technology & Services, Inc.to pilot our eCoupon promotional system within their network. HCA is the largest hospital system in the nation.

 

We also signed our first agreement with National Veterinary Associates (NVA), one of the largest veterinary hospital systems in the nation.

 

Pharmaceutical Sales and Marketing Updates

 

Our sales team continues to expand opportunities within existing and new clients. We are focused on adding additional brands at existing clients, expanding the utilization of our network for existing brands, and obtaining new clients.

 

Additionally, we are expanding our non e-Coupon services as follows:

 

●

We will focus on our New Drug File Integration.

 

●

We will begin a test rollout of our demand drug rep and sample request with two Urology EHR platforms to provide immediate access to assigned drug reps. Drug rep access via cold calling has become a very inefficient way to support and market to physician offices. This provides a novel, potentially ground breaking new way to increase access and meaningful support by reps in a more efficient, effective manner.

 

●

ePrescribe Training – we have multiple opportunities pending to leverage our partnership with WPP/Grey to train representatives on understanding and leveraging EHR sales opportunities.

 

●

VoucherDVM - we continue to advance our negotiations with each of the leading veterinarian technology platforms and have signed an agreement with National Veterinary Associates, one of the largest veterinary groups in the U.S., to initiate a beta launch within the second quarter of 2015.

 

We are also continuing to ramp up our marketing efforts as follows:

 

●

Held multiple meetings generated through Pharma to bring on new Health Systems/ePrescribe Platforms.

 

●

Spoke at Coupon and Co-Pay Off-set Strategies Conference.

 

●

Spoke at the Noble Financial Capital Markets Eleventh Annual Equity Conference at Club Med.

 

●

Sponsored the 2nd Annual ePrescribe/EHR Conference.

 

●

Developed and distributed a White Paper to demonstrate the eCoupon ROI to Pharmaceutical Manufacturers.

 

●

Through our partnership with Grey Healthcare, rebranded our promotional marketing items, including new brochures, presentations, and digital media.

  

With the growth of both our pharmaceutical products and our distribution network, we expect that our distribution of e-coupons will continue to increase substantially over last year.

 

 

Financial Update

 

We generated positive cash flow from operations, when ignoring working capital fluctuations, of approximately $400,000 in 2014 as set forth in the following table.

 

		Years Ended December 31
		2014				2013
Net Revenue		$	6,502,962			$	4,679,741
Revenue Share Expense			3,221,534				1,861,316
Gross Margin			3,281,428				2,818,425
Total Operating Expenses			4,307,756				3,085,961
Less Noncash operating expenses			1,439,877				717,173
Cash operating Expenses			2,867,879				2,368,788
Income from Operations excluding noncash expenses		$	413,549			$	449,637

 

Operational Update

 

In 2015, we are intensively focused on increasing physician utilization of our partner networks. Prior to the launch of the Practice Fusion network, the total reach of our partner networks was approximately 300,000 providers. However, only approximately 100,000 providers have access to eCoupon functionality. Approximately 65,000 providers have used our eCoupon functionality at least once, but only approximately 20,000 providers actually use the networks regularly at the present time. We are working individually with each of our partners based on their particular situation to improve workflow to increase coupon utilization by those providers that have access, obtain access for those providers that currently do not have e-coupon access, and increase overall revenue derived from each channel. We believe there is significant revenue growth available within our existing brands by better utilization of our existing partner networks in addition to the revenue growth provided by new brands and new network partners.  

 

Technology Updates

 

To support our growth, we have completed the development and migration of SampleMD 2.0’s on-demand, rule based content delivery platform. The system can now manage up to 1 million rules and return the appropriate content within 1 second. This allows unsurpassed response time to avoid delays, and the ability to meet the upcoming dramatic scale we expect.

 

We have launched downloadable “wrapper” code, which streamlines the integration requirements for our solution from a few weeks to a few days, if EHR channel partners choose to utilize this method. This addresses one of the biggest hurdles we face in getting health systems and EHRs to implement our system, given the extensive demand on their available technical resources.

 

On top of building out our updated software solution, we also updated our infrastructure by replacing and updating our computers in a high availability environment, taking greater precautions for security and building out the architecture to facilitate disaster recovery with a secondary facilitated computer environment. We believe this technology investment will increase performance, simplify integrations, insure availability and protect the investments of our shareholders. We will also be migrating our platform to Oracle database software to support our anticipated growth requirements.

 

Other Key Events in 2014

 

During 2014, we also successfully completed a $10 million capital raise and exercised the option to redeem Vicis Capital Master Fund’s holdings in our company. By successfully executing these initiatives we reduced potential fully diluted shares by approximately 7 million and provided an additional $2.8 million in working capital to support our growth and eliminate dividend payments and other unfavorable provisions of Vicis’ preferred stock.

  

We added two new outside members to our Board of Directors. Gus Halas has an extensive operating background at a variety of companies across a wide range of industries. He brings broad based business and investor perspectives to our senior leadership and is a real asset to us as we hone our strategy and further position ourselves for growth acceleration. Dr. Jack Pinney brings broad based medical knowledge and extensive experience in physician practice and an important user perspective to our Board of Directors and works with us to better understand how we can help more healthcare providers utilize our automated access to needed information and support for their practice and patients.

  

 

We expanded our senior leadership team by adding Ed Berger, a former AstraZenica global marketing director with extensive contacts throughout the pharmaceutical industry to lead our sales efforts on the east coast. We also added Doug Baker as our Chief Financial Officer, a certified public accountant with extensive financial experience with public companies.

 

In August 2014, we settled litigation related to a patent infringement case with Physicians Interactive Holdings, Inc. and Skyscape.com. All actions and claims have been released. We believe this settlement will reduce legal expenses moving forward.

 

Summary

 

Despite the lengthy sales cycle involved in creating this new e-coupon market, we remain very excited about our core e-coupon business and expect acceleration to continue with the launch of additional channels and our joint pursuit of leading health systems with our pharmaceutical partners. We expect our active network to grow substantially in 2015 and feel confident our active users will double by the end of the second quarter of 2015 based on anticipated contractual and platform commitments being implemented.

 

We are also pleased with the status of our current discussions with, and the value recognized by, leading veterinary platform providers that are interested in partnering to deliver similar automated savings to animal owners—while allowing veterinarians to remain competitive in their pharmacy business. These discussions are leading to expanded ways we can offer savings directly to veterinarians—as well as to their pet owners outside of the vet clinics.

 

Principal Products and Applications

 

Our principal products and applications can be summarized as follows:

 

●

SampleMD is a revolutionary virtual "Patient Support Center" that allows doctors and staff to access a universe of sample vouchers, co-pay coupons and other patient support through their EMR and/or e-Prescribe systems to search, print or electronically dispense directly to patients and a national network of pharmacies. SampleMD eliminates the need for physicians to manage and store physical drug samples by offering a more convenient and efficient way to allocate, administer and track samples and co-pay savings provided to their patients. Today, almost 60% of doctors’ offices ban or limit drug representatives and the samples they offer. Although samples are still valuable, many healthcare systems and doctors are looking for an easier, more effective way to increase affordable access and adherence to their prescribed branded medications. Over 90% of our revenue comes through activities related to our SampleMD platform.

 

●

OPTIMIZEHR – Our consulting practice focused on educating and working with pharmaceutical manufacturers on identifying, formulating, and implementing new eRx media strategies for promoting their products. Our consulting services include: 1) Drug File Integration - a service to insure that the manufacturer’s drug is present in every ePrescribing platform available; 2) Sales Force Training – a service to educate the extended field sales force on this new integrated solution and what to look for within their client base to insure maximum exposure of their bands; and 3) Strategy Development – a service that assists manufactures in identifying and building a competitive strategy to take advantage of this new digital frontier. Currently, this activity results in less than 10% of our revenue, but we believe this represents a significant growth opportunity for us.

 

●

OPTIMIZERx.com – Our Direct to Consumer Website is a portal to healthcare savings for patients to centrally review and participate in prescription and healthcare savings and support programs. To date, we have over 2.4 million members who have registered. We strive to provide all the information and guidance that patients undergoing long-term pharmaceutical treatments may require. Patients can search by their medication or their condition in order to access educational information regarding their condition, information regarding their medication, coupons for instant savings when they purchase their medications, information on free drug trials, and guidance to any other savings programs available to them. At the present time, we generate no revenue through this site, but we believe it represents a significant potential future revenue source.

  

 

Marketing and Sales

  

We continue to extend our marketing efforts to build both brand and capabilities awareness in the market. As previously discussed, we continue to actively participate in industry and partner events such as exlPharma and the ACE – Allscripts Users Conference as well as taking a lead sponsor position in the CBInet eRx and EHR conferences in March and October of 2014. We are also a cosponsor of the March 2015 conference. During the course of the year, we also initiated and delivered successful email marketing campaigns, which generated viable leads for our sales force.

 

In 2013, we also announced our strategic partnership with WPP/Grey Health Group, a leading agency within the healthcare marketplace. We plan to continue to increase our marketing efforts with all of our strategic partners, as we intend to continue to promote SampleMD and OPTIMIZERx primarily through the following:

 

●

Industry and Partner Events;

 

●

Email Campaigns;

 

●

Internet Marketing;

 

●

Public Relations Campaigns;

 

●

Physician Offices;

 

●

Direct to Consumer Marketing;

 

●

Trade Media Advertising;

 

●

Pharmacy Partners;

 

●

Physician Organizations and Associations; and

 

●

Strategic Relationships.

 

Additionally, in 2014, we hired a highly seasoned Sales and Marketing Executive, who has decades of global pharmaceutical marketing and sales experience at AstraZeneca and elsewhere, as our Eastern Vice President of Sales. We continue to be alert for qualified sales personnel and will expand our sales force as revenues continue to grow.

 

Competition

 

Our SampleMD platform competes in the highly competitive pharmaceutical and healthcare advertising industry that is dominated by large well-known companies with established names, solid market niches, wide arrays of product offerings and marketing networks. Coupon offerings compete for pharmaceutical budgets with a variety of other forms of advertising and promotion.

 

Despite these overall competitors, we do not have major competition in our space of the market. We have been experiencing a growing list of potential partners whom either have content that want to deliver through the SampleMD engine and network, or whom have complementary technology and want to integrate our solution as a channel partner, expanding our reach to clinicians. The primary competitors in our space of the market are PDR Network, LLC and Physicians Interactive Holdings, Inc. However, we believe our breadth of brands offered, extensive list of pharmaceutical clients, and the vast reach of our network give us a substantial advantage and allows us to achieve a dominant position in the marketplace.

 

Intellectual Property

 

In 2012, we were awarded a patent for our innovative SampleMD solution (US Patent No. 8,341,015). This award was a result of our extensive research and development efforts. The awarded claims cover our ability to electronically process, display and distribute eligible prescription savings on the medications and therapies healthcare providers wish to prescribe for their patients. We have also submitted and will be preparing additional filings to protect our intellectual property on forthcoming solutions that will further assist and support physicians, pharmacists and patients.

 

 

In addition, we have hired Harness, Dickey & Pierce, a nationally ranked IP firm, to further expand and protect our intellectual property. Through them, we have filed two additional patents on our technology. We believe our current and expanding IP will allow us to continue being the leader in this rapidly growing space.

 

OPTIMIZERx and SampleMD are both licensed trademarks of ours.

 

Government Regulation

 

Fraud and Abuse Laws

 

Anti-Kickback Statutes

 

The federal healthcare program Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce either the referral of an individual for, or the furnishing, arranging for or recommending a good or service for which payment may be made in whole or part under a federal healthcare program such as Medicare or Medicaid. The definition of remuneration has been broadly interpreted to include anything of value, including for example gifts, discounts, the furnishing of supplies or equipment, credit arrangements, payments of cash and waivers of payments. Several courts have interpreted the statute's intent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals or otherwise generate business involving goods or services reimbursed in whole or in part under federal healthcare programs, the statute has been violated. The law contains a few statutory exceptions, including payments to bona fide employees, certain discounts and certain payments to group purchasing organizations. Violations can result in significant penalties, imprisonment and exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs. Exclusion of a manufacturer would preclude any federal healthcare program from paying for its products. In addition, kickback arrangements can provide the basis for an action under the Federal False Claims Act, which is discussed in more detail below. The Anti-Kickback Statute is broad and potentially prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful in businesses outside of the healthcare industry. Recognizing that the Anti-Kickback Statute is broad and may technically prohibit many innocuous or beneficial arrangements, the Office of Inspector General of Health and Human Services, or OIG, issued a series of regulations, known as the safe harbors, beginning in July 1991. These safe harbors set forth provisions that, if all the applicable requirements are met, will assure healthcare providers and other parties that they will not be prosecuted under the Anti-Kickback Statute. The failure of a transaction or arrangement to fit precisely within one or more safe harbors does not necessarily mean that it is illegal or that prosecution will be pursued. However, conduct and business arrangements that do not fully satisfy each applicable safe harbor may result in increased scrutiny by government enforcement authorities such as the OIG. Arrangements that implicate the Anti-Kickback Law, and that do not fall within a safe harbor, are analyzed by the OIG on a case-by-case basis. Government officials have focused recent enforcement efforts on, among other things, the sales and marketing activities of healthcare companies, and recently have brought cases against individuals or entities with personnel who allegedly offered unlawful inducements to potential or existing customers in an attempt to procure their business. Settlements of these cases by healthcare companies have involved significant fines and/or penalties and in some instances criminal pleas. In addition to the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute, many states have their own kickback laws. Often, these laws closely follow the language of the federal law, although they do not always have the same exceptions or safe harbors. In some states, these anti-kickback laws apply with respect to all payors, including commercial health insurance companies.

 

False Claims Laws

 

Federal false claims laws prohibit any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a false claim for payment to the federal government or knowingly making, or causing to be made, a false statement to get a false claim paid. Manufacturers can be held liable under false claims laws, even if they do not submit claims to the government, if they are found to have caused submission of false claims. The Federal Civil False Claims Act also includes whistle blower provisions that allow private citizens to bring suit against an entity or individual on behalf of the United States and to recover a portion of any monetary recovery. Many of the recent highly publicized settlements in the healthcare industry related to sales and marketing practices have been cases brought under the False Claims Act. The majority of states also have statutes or regulations similar to the federal false claims laws, which apply to items and services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs, or, in several states, apply regardless of the payor. Sanctions under these federal and state laws may include civil monetary penalties, exclusion of a manufacturer's products from reimbursement under government programs, criminal fines and imprisonment.

 

 

Privacy and Security

 

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, and the rules promulgated there under require certain entities, referred to as covered entities, to comply with established standards, including standards regarding the privacy and security of protected health information, or PHI. HIPAA further requires that covered entities enter into agreements meeting certain regulatory requirements with their business associates, as such term is defined by HIPAA, which, among other things, obligate the business associates to safeguard the covered entity's PHI against improper use and disclosure. While not directly regulated by HIPAA, our customers or distributors might face significant contractual liability pursuant to such an agreement if the business associate breaches the agreement or causes the covered entity to fail to comply with HIPAA.  It is possible that HIPPA compliance could become a substantial regulatory burden and expense to our operations, although we do not believe that this will occur as a general website publisher.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2014, we had 12 full time employees and 1 part time employee, in addition to contracted programmers, as needed, through our established relationship with Simple eSolutions, a technical and programming resources partner. Additionally, we have one contracted business development individual targeting new EMR channel and pharma clients.

 

Subsidiaries

 

We conduct our operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, OptimizeRx Michigan.

 

Description of Property

 

Currently, we do not own any real estate. Our principal executive offices are located at 400 Water Street, Suite 200, Rochester, Michigan, 48307. We initially entered into a 3 year lease for this 2,886 square foot facility, with a cost of $5,049.25 per month. We renewed that lease for a two year period on December 1, 2014 for a monthly rental rate of $5,201.50. We believe that our properties are adequate for our current needs, but growth potential may require larger facilities due to anticipated addition of personnel. We do not have any policies regarding investments in real estate, securities or other forms of property.

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Company Highlights through May, 2015

 

	1)	Our sales for the first three months of 2015 approached $1.5 million, a 15% increase over the same period in 2014.
	2)	We generated positive cash flow from operations of $86,692 during the quarter
	3)	Our cash balance increased to in excess of $3.5 million.
	4)	Our balance sheet continued to improve with working capital of approximately $3.2 million and a working capital ratio of 2.5 to 1.
	5)	Excluding non-cash expenses, the first quarter of 2015 generated operating income of $47,762.
	6)	We initially launched our SampleMD e-coupon solution in April of 2015 within  Practice Fusion’s EMR and expect to be fully integrated by the end of the 2nd Quarter. We also have received commitment to begin running key campaigns through NextGen and anticipate impact beginning in June. Additionally, company is actively engaging and advancing with other leading platforms to position and prioritize integration of services.
	7)	We sponsored the ePrescribe/EHR conference held in Philadelphia in March 2015, which generated significant leads for our sales force.
	8)	We continued to add new brands in 2015 at both existing customers such as AstraZenica and Lilly, as well as at new customers such as Otsuka and Shionogi.
	9)	We continued to prove an outstanding return on investment on our pharmaceutical promotions through independent analytics firms
	10)	Completing major technical upgrades, including migration to Oracle database, to allow for very robust growth and performance.

  

We generated positive cash flow from operations for the quarter and we expect to continue to do so in future quarters. We expect to achieve profitability in future quarters based on the expected escalation of revenues. We also generated positive income from operations, when excluding non-cash expenses, as set forth in the table below.

 

		Quarter Ended March 31
		2015				2014
Net Revenue		$	1,487,553			$	1,289,428
Revenue Share Expense			756,440				561,411
Gross Margin			731,113				728,017
Total Operating Expenses			842,610				1,490,218
Less Noncash operating expenses			159,259				498,744
Cash operating Expenses			683,351				991,474
Income from Operations excluding noncash expenses		$	47,762			$	(263,457	)

 

 

Our success in acquiring, integrating and expanding into new promotional EHR/eRx platforms continues to grow as well. We have launched our initial brands into Practice Fusion on a limited basis and are anticipating expanded rollout throughout the second quarter. We are also working extensively with our existing platforms to expand the reach of our eCoupon product to all of their providers, as well as increasing the utilization of the eCoupon functionality by their existing users.

 

With the growth of both our pharmaceutical products and our distribution network, we expect that our distribution of e-coupons will continue to increase over last year.

 

Operating Results

 

We finished the first quarter with a loss of approximately $100,000, a substantial reduction over the same period last year, and we generated positive cash flow from operations.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

 

Revenues

 

Our total revenue reported for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was approximately $1.5 million, an increase of 15% over the approximately $1.3 million from the same period in 2014. These increased revenues result from both increased pharmaceutical brands being promoted and expanded distribution channels. We expect continued quarter over quarter revenue increases for the balance of 2015.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Our cost of sales, composed of revenue share expense, increased over the same period in 2014 as a result of both the revenue increases and the LDM settlement signed in March 2014. In addition, revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue in 2015 increased over the same period in 2014. In the three month period, revenue share expense increased to approximately 51% of sales in 2015 from approximately 44% in the same period in 2014.

 

These increases in revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue result from a combination of factors, including product mix whereby a larger percentage of overall revenues are subject to revenue share, the LDM settlement agreement which resulted in increased revenue share payments, and increased distributions at channel partners with financial incentives to increase distributions that result in higher payments per distribution. We expect revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue in future quarters to continue at levels similar to that of the quarter ended March 31, 2015 as revenues subject to revenue share expense continues to increase as a percentage of our overall revenues.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses decreased from approximately $1.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 to approximately $850,000 for the same period in 2015, a decrease of approximately 43%. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

 

		Three months ended March 31
		2015				2014
Salaries, Wages, & Benefits		$	395,199			$	349,170

Lawsuit settlement			-				400,000
Total Operating Expense		$	842,610			$	1,490,218

 

The main reasons for the decrease in operating expenses in 2015 are the lawsuit settlement in 2014, which resulted in a $400,000 payment to the plaintiff, and the reduction in stock-based compensation from 2014 to 2015. Ignoring those two items, operating expenses increased approximately 17%, however the majority of those increases related to things implemented after the first quarter of 2014, as opposed to new items in 2015. This would include new hires, as well as the addition of outside Directors and related compensation.

 

 

We expect our operating expenses to continue to increase as we further implement our business plan and expand our operations, however, we do not expect those increases to be significant in the near future. Professional fees are significantly affected by litigation, and we do have litigation in progress, causing those fees to fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was approximately $110,000 as compared to a loss of approximately $760,000 during the same period in 2014. The reasons for specific components are discussed above. Overall, the decreased loss is mostly explained by the decrease in operating expenses.

 

Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2014 and 2013

 

Revenues

 

Our total revenue reported for the year ended December 31, 2014 was approximately $6.5 million, an increase of 39% from the year ended December 31, 2013. This increased revenue resulted from increases in all major revenue categories including setup fees, reporting fees, and eCoupon distributions and resulted from both increased pharmaceutical brands being promoted and expanded distribution channels. We expect continued revenue increases in 2015.

  

Because the pharmaceutical industry is dominated by large companies with multiple brands, our revenue is concentrated in a relatively small number of companies. We have approximately 25 pharmaceutical companies as customers and we received approximately 64% of our revenue in the year ended December 31, 2014 from our largest 5 customers, with approximately 20% of revenue from our largest customer. During the year ended December 31, 2013, approximately 75% of revenue came from our 5 largest customers, with 36% from our largest customer. While we are still dependent on major customers, as our customer base expands, we are becoming less dependent on any one customer.

 

 

Cost of Sales

 

Our cost of sales, composed of revenue share expense, increased in the year ended December 31, 2014, over the year ended December 31, 2013 as a result of the revenue increases. In addition, revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue in 2014 increased over 2013 from approximately 40% in the year ended December 31, 2013 to approximately 50% in the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

These increases in revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue result from a combination of factors, including product mix whereby a larger percentage of overall revenues are subject to revenue share, the LDM settlement agreement, which resulted in increased revenue share payments, and increased distributions at channel partners with financial incentives to increase distributions that result in higher payments per distribution. We expect revenue share expense as a percentage of revenue in 2015 to continue at levels similar to, or greater than, that of 2014 as revenues subject to revenue share expense continues to increase as a percentage of our overall revenues, and as a result of the LDM agreement being in effect for all of 2015, compared with only 10 months of 2014.

  

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses increased to approximately $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 from approximately $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of approximately 40%. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

 

		Years Ended December 31
		2014				2013
Salaries, wages, & Benefits		$	1,477,450			$	1,320,065
Professional Fees			242,169				426,426

Depreciation and Amortization			264,340				193,791

Travel			131,637				143,560
Subtotal			2,735,514				2,562,579
Stock-based compensation			1,172,242				523.382
Lawsuit settlement			400,000				-0-
Total Operating Expense		$	4,307,756			$	3,085,961

  

The main reasons for the increase in operating expenses in 2014 are stock-based compensation, and the lawsuit settlement, which resulted in a $400,000 payment to the plaintiff. Ignoring those items, operating expenses only increased approximately 7% compared with a revenue increase of approximately 40%. The lawsuit settlement is a one-time expense that is not expected to recur, although as discussed above, it affects revenue share expense on an ongoing basis. Stock based compensation expense increased significantly as a result of stock grants to two executive officers and option grants to new and existing employees. We expect that stock compensation expenses will be significantly reduced in 2015 as there are no stock grants scheduled, aside from some remaining shares that will come due in 2015 to our new directors under our Director Compensation Plan, and amortization of the stock granted to the previous CEO has been completed.

 

Within the remaining operating expenses, there were a variety of increases, some of which were offset by savings in other areas. Salaries, wages and benefits increased as a result of additional staff. Professional fees decreased primarily as a result of the resolution of litigation in 2014, resulting in lower legal fees. Advertising and promotion increased as a result of our sponsorship of eCoupon conferences. Development and Maintenance increased as a result of expansion of our system capacity and capabilities.

 

 

Net Loss

 

We finished the year ended December 31, 2014 with a loss of approximately $1.0 million, as compared to a loss of approximately $0.25 million during the year ended December 31, 2013. The reasons for specific components are discussed above. Overall, the increase in revenue and resulting gross margin was offset by increased operating expenses, however the majority of those increases were in non-recurring or non-cash items. The lawsuit settlement with LDM accounted for $400,000 of the increased loss. In addition, the 2014 loss included noncash items of approximately $1.2 million related to stock based compensation and approximately $264,000 of depreciation and amortization. Ignoring working capital changes, we had positive cash flow from operations of approximately $400,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014. In the year ended December 31, 2013, the loss of approximately $267,000 included non-cash expenses of only approximately $525,000 in stock-based compensation and $195,000 in depreciation and amortization, resulting in cash flow from operations (ignoring working capital items) of slightly over $450,000 in 2013.

 

Quarterly Financial Information

 

As discussed in the notes to the financial statements, we have restated our 2013 financial statements. The restatement relates to unrecorded stock compensation related to investor relations and consulting services, unrecorded revenue share payables, and changes in revenue recognition, all occurring during the year ended December 31, 2013. The revenue recognition relates to promotional programs started in 2013 that were expected to be completed in 2013, but actually carried over into 2014. These items were discovered as a result of their effect on the 2014 financial statements and a result, the quarterly financial statements also will be restated. Following are the restated income statement numbers for the first three quarters that will be used in the 2015 quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, as well as the fourth quarter amounts for information purposes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2014, we had total current assets of approximately $5.6 million, compared with current liabilities of approximately $2.4 million, resulting in working capital of approximately $3.2 million and a current ratio of approximately 2.3 to 1. This is a significant improvement over the working capital balance of approximately $350,000 and current ratio of 1.15 to 1 at December 31, 2013. The increase is largely due to the private offering we conducted in March of 2014, resulting in $2.8 million in working capital. We are currently generating positive cash flow from operations, ignoring working capital fluctuations, and we expect our working capital balance to continue to improve in future quarters.

 

 

Our operating activities used approximately $50,000 in the year ended December 31, 2014, however, this was significantly impacted by working capital items, primarily an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $589,000 as a result of increasing sales throughout the year. Without this, we would have had positive cash flow from operations and we expect positive cash flow from operations in future quarters in 2015 and for the full year in 2015. When ignoring working capital fluctuations, we generated positive cash flow from operations in both years as shown in the table below.

  

		Years Ended December 31
		2014				2013
Net Revenue		$	6,502,962			$	4,679,741
Revenue Share Expense			3,221,534				1,861,316
Gross Margin			3,281,428				2,818,425
Total Operating Expenses			4,307,756				3,085,961
Less Noncash operating expenses			1,439,877				717,173
Cash operating Expenses			2,867,879				2,368,788
Income from Operations excluding noncash expenses		$	413,549			$	449,637

 

We used approximately $400,000 in investing activities in the year ended December 31, 2014 compared with about $300,000 in the year ended December 31, 2013. These investment activities relate to improvements being implemented in our SampleMD website, as well as protection and expansion of our patent portfolio. These items both represent important components of our business strategy moving forward.

 

Financing activities provided approximately $2.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2014. This results from a $10 million equity raise in March 2014, partially offset by costs of the raise and redemption of all the common stock, preferred stock, and warrants held by a major shareholder that significantly reduced the potential fully diluted shares count, even when considering the new equity issued. The redemption also alleviated further dilution in connection with dividends payable to the preferred shareholder. With the financing and cash on hand, we have sufficient cash to operate our business for more than the next twelve months and we do not anticipate the need to raise additional equity for operating purposes. There were no cash flows from financing activities in the same period in 2013.

 

As of March 31, 2015, we had total current assets of approximately $5.4 million, compared with current liabilities of approximately $2.2 million, resulting in working capital of approximately $3.2 million and a current ratio of approximately 2.5 to 1, similar to the working capital of approximately $3.2 million and current ratio of 2.3 to 1 at December 31, 2014. We are currently generating positive cash flow from operations and we expect our working capital balance to continue to improve in future quarters.

 

Our operating activities generated approximately $87,000 in cash flow during the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared with cash generated of approximately $227,000 in the same period in 2014. This decrease is primarily the result of increased accounts receivable balances resulting from the increased sales.

 

We used approximately $23,000 in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared with approximately $109,000 in the same period in 2014. These investment activities relate to improvements being implemented in our SampleMD website, as well as protection and expansion of our patent portfolio. These items both represent important components of our business strategy moving forward.

 

There were no cash flows from financing activities in 2015, however financing activities provided approximately $2.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. This results from a $10 million equity raise in March 2014, partially offset by costs of the raise and redemption of all the common stock, preferred stock, and warrants held by a major shareholder that significantly reduced the fully diluted shares count, even when considering the new equity issued. With the financing and cash on hand, we have sufficient cash to operate our business for more than the next twelve months and we do not anticipate the need to raise additional equity.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2015, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

A “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’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.

 

Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in the footnotes to our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, however, we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to revenue recognition, calculation of revenue share expense, stock-based compensation, capitalization and related amortization of intangible assets, and impairment of assets.

 

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operation, financial position or cash flow.

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

 

Other than described below or the transactions described under the heading “Executive Compensation” (or with respect to which such information is omitted in accordance with SEC regulations), there have not been, and there is not currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or will be a participant in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any director, executive officer, holder of 5% or more of any class of our capital stock or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

 

On March 17, 2014, we raised gross proceeds of $10,000,000 in an unregistered offering (the “Offering”) with certain accredited investors. We used a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering to exercise the Securities Redemption Option Agreement, as amended, with Vicis Capital Master Fund (“Vicis”) that provides us with an option to purchase all of the outstanding shares and derivative securities held by Vicis for total payment of six million dollars ($6,000,000). The shares and derivative securities include the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, Common Stock, and warrants to purchase shares of common stock held by Vicis in our company. In connection with this fundraising, we agreed to grant 200,000 shares of fully vested common stock to officers David, Harrell, David Lester, and Terry Hamilton.

 

In February 2014, we agreed to grant 337,500 shares of common stock, half of which vested immediately and half of which vested in August 2014, to both David Harrell and Terry Hamilton as bonuses based on their efforts to recapitalize the company to secure approximately $3 million in working capital while reducing potential fully diluted shares by approximately 7 million shares. Stock-based compensation related to these bonuses was $570,375 during the year ended December 31, 2014. These shares have not yet been issued and are recorded as stock payable, but can be requested by the officers at any time.

 

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “OPRX” on the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc.  Only a limited market exists for our securities. There is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop, or if developed, that it will be sustained. Therefore, a shareholder may be unable to resell his securities in our company.

 

The following tables set forth the range of high and low prices for our common stock for the each of the periods indicated as reported by the OTCQB. These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

On June 1, 2015, the last sales price per share of our common stock was $1.02.

 

Penny Stock

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

As of April 17, 2015, we had 22,912,319 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by 326 shareholders of record at our transfer agent, with approximately 1,000 additional shareholders holding our shares in street name.

 

Dividends

 

We currently intend to retain future earnings for the operation of our business. We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

In the event that a dividend is declared, common stockholders on the record date are entitled to share ratably in any dividends that may be declared from time to time on the common stock by our board of directors from funds legally available.

 

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1.

We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 

2.

Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities, plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

  

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

 

On June 13, 2013, our Board of Directors adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility with us, to provide additional incentive to employees, directors and consultants, and to promote our success. Under the Plan, we may issue up to an aggregate total of 1,500,000 incentive or non-qualified options to purchase our common stock or stock awards.

 

Equity Compensation Plans as of December 31, 2014

 

Plan Category		Number of Securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options				Weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options				Number of Securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans
		(a)				(b)				(c)
Plan approved by shareholders (2013 Equity Compensation Plan)			552,500			$	1.51				410,000
Plan not approved by shareholders (Other Equity Compensation (includes options and warrants))			2,609,139			$	1.54				–
Total			3,161,639			$	1.53				410,000

 

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

In January 2015, we issued 12,500 shares of restricted common stock to our outside Directors as part of our director compensation package for services rendered in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

In March 2015, we signed a capital markets advisory agreement whereby we agreed to issue 90,000 shares of common stock in two increments as payment for the advisory services. The first 45,000 shares were issued in March 2015.

 

These securities were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The holders represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view towards distribution. The investors were given adequate information about us to make an informed investment decision. We did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising. We directed our transfer agent to issue the stock certificates with the appropriate restrictive legend affixed to the restricted stock.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors

OptimizeRx Corporation

Rochester, Michigan

 

We have audited, before the effects of the adjustments for the correction of the errors described in Note 17, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of OptimizeRx Corporation as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (the 2013 financial statements before the effects of the adjustments discussed in Note 17 have been withdrawn and are not presented herein). The 2013 financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, except for the errors described in Note 17, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of OptimizeRx Corporation as of December 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments for the correction of the errors described in Note 17 and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by KLJ & Associates, LLP.

To the Board of Directors and

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of OptimizeRx Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. OptimizeRx Corporation’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of OptimizeRx Corporation as of December 31, 2014, the results of their operations, and their cash flows, for the year ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

As discussed in Note 17 to the financial statements, errors resulting in an understatement of deferred revenue, liabilities, and stock compensation expense were discovered by management. Accordingly, adjustments have been made to correct the error.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

OptimizeRx Corporation, is a technology solutions company targeting the health care industry. Our objective is to bring better access to better care through connecting patients, physicians and pharmaceutical manufacturers through technology. Originally defined as a marketing and advertising company through our consumer website, we have matured into a technology solutions provider as we launched our direct to physician solution, SampleMD. SampleMD allows physicians to search, print and send available sample trial vouchers and/or co-pay coupons on behalf of their patients. The SampleMD solution is integrated into the physician’s ePrescribing or Electronic Medical Records applications, but could also be a stand-alone desktop application. OptimizeRx solutions provide pharmaceutical manufacturers a direct to physician channel for communicating and promoting their products. It provides health care providers a means to provide sampling and coupons without having to physically store samples on site, and it provides better access and affordability to patients.

 

The company was originally formed as Optimizer Systems, LLC in the State of Michigan on January 31, 2006.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and deferred revenue approximates the carrying amount of these financial instruments due to their short-term nature.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, patent rights, web development costs, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and deferred revenue are valued using level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, exchange or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. Because the Company’s customers are primarily large well capitalized companies, historically there has been very little bad debt expense. Bad debt expense was $0 for each of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 as of both December 31, 2014 and 2013.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Property and Equipment

The capital assets are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives of three to seven years using the straight-line method of depreciation for book purposes.

 

Revenue Recognition and Revenue Share Expense

Revenue is recognized when it is earned. Revenues are generated from our SampleMD activities in which we deliver eCoupons and eVouchers through a distribution network of ePrescribers and Electronic Health Record technology providers (channel partners), or from reselling services that complement our business for other of our partners.

 

We recognize setup fees that are required for integrating client offerings and campaigns into the SampleMD content delivery system and network upon completion of the setup and launch of the client’s campaign within the SampleMD system. As the eCoupons and or eVouchers are distributed through the SampleMD platform and network of channel partners (a transaction), these transactions are recorded and revenue is recognized at the time of distribution. Revenue for transactions can be realized based on a price per distribution or a price per redemption depending on the client contract. Additionally, the company also recognizes revenue for providing program performance reporting and maintenance, either by the company directly delivering reports or by providing access to its online reporting portal that the client can utilize. These fees are charged monthly and recognized as recurring monthly revenue.

 

The company on occasion has also resold products and or services that are available through our channel partners, and that is complementary to our core businesses and client base. In these instances net revenue is recognized based on the commission based revenue split that the company receives.

 

Based on the volume of transactions that are delivered through our channel partner network, we provide a revenue share to compensate the partner for their promotion of the campaign. Revenue shares are a negotiated percentage of the transaction fees and can also be specific to special considerations and campaigns. In addition, we pay revenue share to PDR/LDM as a result of a 2014 legal settlement in an amount equal to the greater of 10% of eCoupon revenues generated or $0.37 per eCoupon distributed.

 

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions have been made in determining the depreciable lives of such assets and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risks

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Research and Development

The Company expenses research and development expenses as incurred. Our research efforts are focused on understanding the market dynamics that have the potential to affect the business in both the short and long term. Our primary goal is to help patients better afford and access the medicines their doctor prescribes, as well as other healthcare products and services they need. Based on this, the Company continually seeks better ways to meet this mission through improved technology, better user experiences and new ways to engage industries to provide new support for patients needing their products, as well seeking new services and solutions to offer.

 

Share-based Payments

The Company uses the fair value method to account for stock-based compensation. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered. The fair value of each award is estimated on the date of each grant. For restricted stock the fair market value is based on the market value of the stock granted on the date of the grant. For options, it is estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Estimated volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock over the same period as the expected term of the options. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise behavior and to determine this term. The risk free rate used is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant using a time period equal to the expected option term. The Company has never paid dividends and does not expect to pay any dividends in the future.

 

		2014				2013
Expected dividend yield			0	%			0	%
Risk free interest rate			0.90%-1.44%				0.79%-1.42%
Expected option term			3.5 years				5.0 years
Turnover/forfeiture rate			0	%			0	%
Expected volatility			117% - 138%				155% - 171%

 

The Black-Scholes option valuation model and other existing models were developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. These option valuation models require the input of, and are highly sensitive to, subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. OptimizerRx’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions could materially affect the fair value estimate.

 

Loss Per Common and Common Equivalent Share

The computation of basic earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year plus common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of warrants outstanding using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the year. Options, warrants and convertible preferred stock have not been included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for either year since their effect is anti-dilutive.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

NOTE 3 – PREPAID EXPENSES

NOTE 11 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS 

The Company sponsors a stock-based incentive compensation plan known as the 2013 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), which was established by the Board of Directors of the Company and approved by the shareholders of the Company in June 2013. A total of 1,500,000 shares were initially reserved for issuance under the plan, of which 552,500 options have been granted, 537,500 shares have been granted, and 410,000 remain available for grant.

The plan allows the Company to grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation right, or restricted stock. The incentive stock options are exercisable for up to ten years, at an option price per share not less than the fair market value on the date the option is granted. The incentive stock options are limited to persons who are regular full-time employees of the Company at the date of the grant of the option. Non-qualified options may be granted to any person, including, but not limited to, employees, independent agents, consultants and attorneys, who the Company’s Board or Compensation Committee believes have contributed, or will contribute, to the success of the Company. Non-qualified options may be issued at option prices of less than fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable for up to ten years from date of grant. The option vesting schedule for options granted is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time of the grant. The Plan provides for accelerated vesting of unvested options if there is a change in control, as defined in the plan.

 

Prior to establishment of the plan, the Board granted options under terms similar to those described in the preceding paragraphs.

 

The compensation cost that has been charged against income related to options for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, was $272,804 and $94,998, respectively. No income tax benefit was recognized in the income statement and no compensation was capitalized in any of the years presented.

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES

 

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $8.8 million that expire from 2027 through 2034 that are available to offset future taxable income. The Company was formed in 2006 as a limited liability company and incorporated in 2007. Activity prior to incorporation is not reflected in the Company’s corporate tax returns. In the future, the cumulative net operating loss carry-forward for income tax purposes may differ from the cumulative financial statement loss due to timing differences between book and tax reporting.

 

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2012:

 

		2014				2013
Federal income tax benefit attributable to:
Current operations		$	349,000			$	91,000
Permanent and Timing Differences (net)			(160,000	)			(294,000	)
Valuation allowance			(189,000	)			203,000
Net provision for federal income tax		$	0			$	0

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES (continued)

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows as of December 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

		2014				2013
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
Net operating loss carryover		$	2,982,000			$	2,793,000
Valuation allowance			(2,982,000	)			(2,793,000	)
Net deferred tax asset		$	0			$	0

 

Under certain circumstances issuance of common shares can result in an ownership change under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 which limits the Company’s ability to utilize carry forwards from prior to the ownership change. Any such ownership change resulting from stock issuances and redemptions could limit the Company’s ability to utilize any net operating loss carry forwards or credits generated before this change in ownership. These limitations can limit both the timing of usage of these laws, as well as the loss of the ability to use these net operating losses.

 

NOTE 16 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

 

Legal

The company is currently involved in the following legal proceedings.

 

In September 2014, we initial litigation against Shadron Stastney, the Company’s previous CEO, in the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan as a result of a dispute related to his separation agreement. Mr. Stastney alleged damages related to the non-registration of shares that he was granted as part of his separation agreement signed in September 2013. Under the terms of the contract we are not obligated to register the shares and we deny any obligation to do so. We have requested declarative relief from the court and also requested an injunction from the court preventing Mr. Stastney from continuing to pursue his claims. Mr. Stastney has filed a counterclaim requesting damages of $450,000 related to the nonregistration of his shares.

 

In March 2015, we initiated litigation against LDM Group, LLC and PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Missouri related to the breach by LDM, and PDR as successor, of the settlement agreement signed February 28, 2014 related to previous litigation with LDM. LDM has failed to live up to its obligations under the settlement agreement including, but not limited to, not allowing the Company to distribute its eCoupon programs in the LDM network, not allowing the Company to distribute the LDM patient education programs, and not providing other information required under the settlement agreement. The Company is seeking enforcement of the settlement agreement and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal to the amounts paid to date to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $900,000, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of LDM’s breach of the agreement.

 

In March 2015, we also initiated litigation against PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the District of New Jersey as a result of PDR’s breach of the Master Services Agreement between the parties requiring PDR to exclusively use the Company’s eCoupon solution. The Company asserts that PDR’s acquisition of LDM and the use of the LDM network to distribute coupons by PDR violates the agreement between the parties and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal the amounts paid to date by the Company to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $900,000, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of PDR’s actions.

NOTE 16 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (continued)

 

In early 2014 the Company learned that Mr. Milton Wilpon (“Mr. Wilpon”) of New Jersey claimed to have obtained a default judgment for approximately $929,000 in the New Jersey Superior Court, Essex County (the “Judgment”) against a predecessor of the Company and was seeking to amend the Judgment to add the Company as a judgment debtor.   The Judgment was entered in 2006 when the predecessor of the Company was a dormant shell company and the Judgment allegedly related to a settlement agreement that was breached in 2001 (the “Settlement Agreement”).  The Company appeared in the action and filed a motion to vacate the Judgment on several grounds, including that it appeared that the Summons and Complaint were never properly served and that plaintiff had never filed an arbitration as was required by the Settlement Agreement.  In September 2014, the Court granted the Company’s motion and vacated the Judgment in its entirety and dismissed the action.

 

In December 2014, the Company was served with a copy of a Demand for Arbitration filed by Mr. Wilpon relating to his claims under the Settlement Agreement.  On February 24, 2015, the Company filed an appearance with the AAA objecting to the arbitration on several grounds, including (1) that claims arose in 2001 and are barred by the applicable statute of limitations; (2) plaintiff did not properly serve and file the demand for arbitration and (3) plaintiff has not followed the proper procedure for the appointment of an arbitrator as provided by the Settlement Agreement.   The Company intends vigorously to oppose Mr. Wilpon’s claims.

 

Revenue-share contracts

The Company has contacts with various Electronic Health Records systems and ePrescribe platforms, whereby we agree to share a portion of the revenue we generate for eCoupons distributed through their networks. These contracts grant audit rights related to the payments to our partners, and in some cases would require us to pay for the audit if the audit determined there was an underpayment and the underpayment meets certain thresholds, such as 10%.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

OptimizeRx Corporation, is a technology solution company focused on the health care industry. Its objective is to bring better access to better care by leveraging its proprietary technology to provide on demand savings and support within physicians and patients web based platforms, including Electronic Health Records and Patient Portals. Initially defined as a marketing and advertising company through its consumer website, OptimizeRx.com, the Company has matured as a technology solutions provider through its direct to physician solution, SampleMD. SampleMD allows physicians to automatically display and distribute sample vouchers and/or co-pay coupons electronically within the ePrescription platform to pharmacies on behalf of their patients. The SampleMD solution is integrated into the ePrescribing or Electronic Medical Records applications, but can also sit on a prescriber’s desktop.

 

OptimizeRx solutions provide health care institutions with an alternative option to the traditional hassles and issues associated with storing and managing physical drug samples and pre-printed coupons and it provides better access and affordability to patients to improve affordability, adherence and outcomes. In turn, OptimizeRx provides pharmaceutical manufacturers with both direct to consumer and direct to physician channels for more efficiently communicating and promoting their products and savings.

 

The consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, and for the periods then ended, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date.

 

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior period’s consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.

 

NOTE 2 – STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

 

In January 2015, we issued 12,500 shares of common stock to outside Directors in connection with our Director Compensation plan which calls for issuance of 6,250 shares per quarter for each Director. Those shares were recorded as stock payable at December 31, 2014. In addition, we recorded an additional 12,500 shares, valued at $16,375 as stock payable at March 31, 2015 for shares to be issued in April 2015.

 

In February 2015 we entered into a capital markets advisory agreement covering a one year period which calls for 90,000 shares of common stock to be issued as compensation. These shares were valued at $112,500 and are being amortized to expense over the period of service. 45,000 of these shares were issued in March 2015, with the balance to be issued in August 2015. The agreement also allows an additional 60,000 shares to be earned based on future contingencies.

 

In March 2014, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, pursuant to which we sold 8,333,333 shares of our common stock for $1.20 per share, or gross proceeds of $10,000,000.

NOTE 2 – STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY (CONTINUED)

 

Placement agents in the offering received commissions equal to approximately 9.7% of gross proceeds, for an aggregate commission of approximately $970,000, including reimbursements for their reasonable out of pocket expenses. Placement agents also received warrants to purchase up to 804,139 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.20 per share and a term of 5 years. The warrants were valued at $1,110,211, have been recorded as equity issuance costs, and were registered on a registration statement that went effective May 28, 2014. In addition to the warrants to placement agents, we also paid cash bonuses of $240,000 to three executive officers, agreed to issue 200,000 shares to three executive officers, and issued 150,000 shares to a consultant, in connection with the equity raise. The stock was valued based on the fair market value on the grant date, which was $630,000 in total. These amounts have been recorded as equity issuance costs, resulting in total equity issuance costs of $2.95 million. The 200,000 shares for the three executive officers have not been issued, but are recorded as stock payable and can be requested by the executive officers at any time.

 

We used the net proceeds of the offering to exercise the securities redemption option agreement, as amended, with Vicis Capital Master Fund that provided us with an option to purchase all of the outstanding shares and derivative securities held by Vicis for total payment of $6,000,000. The shares and derivative securities included the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, Common Stock, and warrants to purchase shares of common stock held by Vicis in the Company. The balance of the net proceeds were used for working capital purposes.

 

In January 2014, an executive officer exercised 500,000 stock warrants using the cashless exercise feature included in the warrants. In exchange for the 500,000 warrants, 410,348 shares of common stock were issued.

 

In February 2014, we agreed to grant 337,500 shares of our common stock, half of which vested immediately and half of which vested in August 2014, to two executive officers as bonuses based on their efforts to recapitalize the company to secure approximately $3 million in working capital while reducing fully diluted shares by approximately 7 million shares. These shares have not been issued, but are recorded as stock payable and can be requested by the officers at any time.

 

NOTE 3 – SHARE BASED PAYMENTS – OPTIONS

 

We use the fair value method to account for stock based compensation. We recorded $53,841 and $36,235 in compensation expense in the periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to options issued under our stock-based incentive compensation plan. This includes expense related to options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current year. No options were issued in the current year. The fair value of these instruments was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Information related to the assumptions used in this model is set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

NOTE 4 – CONTINGENCIES

 

Litigation

 

The company is currently involved in the following legal proceedings.

 

In September 2014, we initiated litigation against Shadron Stastney, the Company’s previous CEO, in the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan as a result of a dispute related to his separation agreement. Mr. Stastney alleged damages related to the non-registration of shares that he was granted as part of his separation agreement signed in September 2013. Under the terms of the contract we are not obligated to register the shares and we deny any obligation to do so. We have requested declarative relief from the court and also requested an injunction from the court preventing Mr. Stastney from continuing to pursue his claims. Mr. Stastney has filed a counterclaim requesting damages of $450,000 related to the nonregistration of his shares.

 

In March 2015, we initiated litigation against LDM Group, LLC and PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Missouri related to the breach by LDM, and PDR as successor, of the settlement agreement signed February 28, 2014 related to previous litigation with LDM. LDM has failed to live up to its obligations under the settlement agreement including, but not limited to, not allowing us to distribute our eCoupon programs in the LDM network, not allowing us to distribute the LDM patient education programs, and not providing other information required under the settlement agreement. We are seeking enforcement of the settlement agreement and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal to the amounts paid to date to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $1.0 million, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of LDM’s breach of the agreement.

 

In March 2015, we also initiated litigation against PDR Network, LLC in the United States District Court in the District of New Jersey as a result of PDR’s breach of the Master Services Agreement between the parties requiring PDR to exclusively use our eCoupon solution. We assert that PDR’s acquisition of LDM and the use of the LDM network to distribute coupons by PDR violates the agreement between the parties and is seeking damages in an amount at least equal the amounts paid to date by us to LDM under the settlement agreement, which approximates $1.0 million, as well as damages for lost income and business value as a result of PDR’s actions.

 

In May 2015, we filed an amended complaint in the Missouri case to consolidate the two cases and withdrew the case against PDR Networks in the United States District Court in the District of New Jersey, without predjudice.

 

In early 2014 we learned that Mr. Milton Wilpon (“Mr. Wilpon”) of New Jersey claimed to have obtained a default judgment for approximately $929,000 in the New Jersey Superior Court, Essex County (the “Judgment”) against a predecessor of the Company and was seeking to amend the Judgment to add us as a judgment debtor.   The Judgment was entered in 2006 when the predecessor of the Company was a dormant shell company and the Judgment allegedly related to a settlement agreement that was breached in 2001 (the “Settlement Agreement”).  We appeared in the action and filed a motion to vacate the Judgment on several grounds, including that it appeared that the Summons and Complaint were never properly served and that plaintiff had never filed an arbitration as was required by the Settlement Agreement.  In September 2014, the Court granted our motion and vacated the Judgment in its entirety and dismissed the action.

 

In December 2014, we were served with a copy of a Demand for Arbitration filed by Mr. Wilpon relating to his claims under the Settlement Agreement.  On February 24, 2015, we filed an appearance with the AAA objecting to the arbitration on several grounds, including (1) that claims arose in 2001 and are barred by the applicable statute of limitations; (2) plaintiff did not properly serve and file the demand for arbitration and (3) plaintiff has not followed the proper procedure for the appointment of an arbitrator as provided by the Settlement Agreement.   We petitioned the AAA to terminate the proceeding and in April 2015, the proceeding was terminated.

Item 14.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Our officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws.

Under the governing Nevada statutes, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's articles of incorporation.  Our articles of incorporation do not contain any limiting language regarding director immunity from liability.  Excepted from this immunity are:

1.

a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest;

 

2.

a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful);

 

3.

a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and

 

4.

willful misconduct.

 

Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless:

1.

such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law;

 

2.

the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors;

 

3.

such indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers  vested us under Nevada law; or;

 

4.

such indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws.

 

Our bylaws provide that we will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.

Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer of the company, except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the company in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company.

Item 15.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

 

In January 2015, we issued 12,500 shares of restricted common stock to our outside Directors as part of our director compensation package for services rendered in the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

In March 2015, we signed a capital markets advisory agreement whereby we agreed to issue 90,000 shares of common stock in two increments as payment for the advisory services. The first 45,000 shares were issued in March 2015.

 

These securities were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The holders represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view towards distribution. The investors were given adequate information about us to make an informed investment decision. We did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising. We directed our transfer agent to issue the stock certificates with the appropriate restrictive legend affixed to the restricted stock.

Item 17.

Undertakings.

 

The registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(a)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

  

(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

 

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(b) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(c) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

 

(d) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however , that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

 

(e) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other that the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit of proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

SIGNATURES

 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Registrant has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized in the City of Rochester, State of Michigan on June 1, 2015.

Re:	OptimizeRx Corp. Registration Statement on Form S-1

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

I have acted as counsel for OptimizeRx Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 23, 2015, and any amendments thereto, pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the resale registration of: (a) 804,139 shares of common stock reserved for issuance and issuable upon the exercise of the warrants; and (b) 45,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, all of which are to be offered and sold by certain stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Stockholders”) as set forth in the Registration Statement.

 

In rendering the opinion set forth below, I have reviewed: (a) the Registration Statement and the exhibits attached thereto; (b) the Company's Articles of Incorporation; (c) the Company's Bylaws; (d) certain records of the Company's corporate proceedings as reflected in its minute books; and (e) such statutes, records and other documents as we have deemed relevant. In my examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof. In addition, I have made such other examinations of law and fact, as I have deemed relevant in order to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

 

Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

 

	1.	The shares of common stock to be sold by the Selling Stockholders are legally and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
	2.	The shares of common stock underlying the warrants to be sold by the Selling Stockholders will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will be a binding obligation of the Company under the law of the State of Nevada when issued by the Company if the exercise price is received by the Company.

 

This opinion is based on Nevada general corporate law, including the statutory provisions, all applicable provisions of the Nevada constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws.

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Scott Doney
Scott Doney, Esq.

 

 

CONSENT

 

I HEREBY CONSENT to the use of my opinion in connection with the Form S-1 Registration Statement and any amendments thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as counsel for the registrant, OptimizeRx Corp.

  

Very truly yours,

APPENDIX A — INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

 

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Merriman and its officers, directors, employees, consultants, attorneys, agents, affiliates, parent company and controlling persons (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (Merriman and each such other persons are collectively and individually referred to below as an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all loss, claim, damage, liability and expense whatsoever, as incurred, including, without limitation, reasonable costs of any investigation, legal and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with, and any amounts paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, to which the Indemnified Party may become subject under any applicable federal or state law (whether in tort, contract or on any other basis) or otherwise, (i) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any written or oral communication provided by or on behalf of the Company to any actual or prospective purchaser of the securities or arising out of or based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) related to the performance by the Indemnified Party of the services contemplated by this letter agreement (including, without limitation, the offer and sale of the securities) and will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all expenses (including legal fees and expenses) in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim or any action or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not the Indemnified Party is a party and whether or not such claim, action or proceeding is initiated or brought by the Company. The Company will not be liable under clause (ii) of the foregoing indemnification provision to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final judgment by a court or arbitrator, not subject to appeal or further appeal, to have resulted directly from the Indemnified Party's willful misconduct or gross negligence. The Company also agrees that the Indemnified Party shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Company related to, or arising out of, the engagement of the Indemnified Party pursuant to, or the performance by the Indemnified Party of the services contemplated by, this letter agreement except to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a final judgment by a court or arbitrator, not subject to appeal or further appeal, to have resulted directly from the Indemnified Party's willful misconduct or gross negligence.

If the indemnity provided above shall be unenforceable or unavailable for any reason whatsoever, the Company, its successors and assigns, and the Indemnified Party shall contribute to all such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all costs of any investigation, legal or other fees and expenses incurred in connection with, and any amounts paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and Merriman under the terms of this letter agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided for by clause

 

(i) of this sentence is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i), but also the relative fault of the Company and Merriman in connection with the matter(s) as to which contribution is to be made. The relative benefits received by the Company and Merriman shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the fee the Company actually pays to Merriman bears to the total value of the consideration paid or to be paid to the Company. The relative fault of the Company and Merriman shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by Merriman and the Company's and Merriman's relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct. The Company and Merriman agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this paragraph were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account these equitable considerations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permitted by law, in no event shall the Indemnified Party's share of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses exceed, in the aggregate, the fee actually paid to the Indemnified Party by the Company. The Company further agrees that, without Merriman's prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, it will not enter into any settlement of a lawsuit, claim or other proceeding arising out of the transactions contemplated by this agreement unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such lawsuit, claim or other proceeding of all such lawsuits, claims, or other proceedings against the Indemnified Parties.

The Indemnified Party will give prompt written notice to the Company of any claim for which it seeks indemnification hereunder, but the omission to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability which it may otherwise have hereunder except to the extent that the Company is damaged or prejudiced by such omission or from any liability it may have other than under this Appendix A. The Company shall have the right to assume the defense of any claim, lawsuit or action (collectively an "action") for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder, subject to the provisions stated herein with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. After notice from the Company to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, and so long as the Company performs its obligations pursuant to such election, the Company will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof at its own expense; provided, however, that the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Company if (1) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Company in writing, (ii) the Company has failed after a reasonable period of time to assume such defense and to employ counsel or (iii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Company and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from, or in conflict with, any legal defenses which may be available to the Company (in which event the Company shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, that the Company shall not be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys for all Indemnified Parties in each jurisdiction in which counsel is needed). Despite the foregoing, the Indemnified Party shall not settle any claim without the prior written approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, so long as the Company is not in material breach of this Appendix A. Also, each Indemnified Party shall make reasonable efforts to mitigate its losses and liabilities. In addition to the Company's other obligations hereunder and without limitation, the Company agrees to pay monthly, upon receipt of itemized statements therefor, all reasonable fees and expenses of counsel incurred by an Indemnified Party in defending any claim of the type set forth in the preceding paragraphs or in producing documents, assisting in answering any interrogatories, giving any deposition testimony or otherwise becoming involved in any action or response to any claim relating to the engagement referred to herein, or any of the matters enumerated in the preceding paragraphs, whether or not any claim is made against an Indemnified Party or an Indemnified Party is named as a party to any such action.
