Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash

 

The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s account at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. All cash amounts in excess of $250,000, approximately $4.4 million, are unsecured. The Company has a deposit placement agreement for Insured Cash Sweep Service (“ICS”). This service is a secure, and convenient way to access FDIC protection on large deposits, earn a return, and enjoy flexibility. The Company believes that the ICS agreement will mitigate its credit risk as it relates to uninsured FDIC amounts in excess of $250,000.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTC, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

 

The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the six months ended June 30, 2024, closing rate at $1.28 US$: GBP, quarterly average rate at $1.27 US$: GBP, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, closing rate at $1.23 US$: GBP, quarterly average rate at $1.22 US$: GBP, for the year ended  December 31, 2023 closing rate at 1.27 US$: GBP, yearly average rate at 1.24 US$: GBP.

 

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block]

Unearned Revenue

 

Contract liabilities are shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as current liabilities. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had contract liabilities of approximately $142,000 and $42,000, respectively.

 

Direct and Indirect Remuneration (DIR) Fees

 

Progressive Care reports DIR fees as a reduction of revenue on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. DIR fees are fees charged by PBMs to pharmacies for network participation as well as periodic reimbursement reconciliations. The Company accrues an estimate of PBM fees, including DIR fees, which are assessed or expected to be assessed by payers at some point after adjudication of a claim, as a reduction of prescription revenue at the time revenue is recognized. Changes in the estimate of such fees are recorded as an adjustment to revenue when the change becomes known. Through December 31, 2023, for some PBMs, DIR fees were charged at the time of the settlement of a pharmacy claim. Other PBMs do not determine DIR fees at the claim settlement date, and therefore DIR fees are collected from pharmacies after claim settlement, often as clawbacks of reimbursements based on factors that vary from plan to plan. For example, two PBMs calculate DIR fees on a trimester basis and charge the Company for these fees as reductions of reimbursements paid to the Company two to three months after the end of the trimester (e.g., DIR fees for January – April 20xx claims were clawback by these PBMs in July – August 20xx). As of December 31, 2023, DIR fees that were not collected at the time of claim settlement, the Company recorded an accrued liability for estimated DIR fees that are expected to be collected by the PBMs by the end of the second quarter of 2024. The estimated liability for these fees is highly subjective and the actual amount collected may differ from the accrued liability. The uncertainty of management’s estimates is due to inadequate disclosure to the Company by the PBMs as to exactly how these fees are calculated either at the time the DIR fees are actually assessed and reported to the Company. The detail level of the disclosure of assessed DIR fees varies based on the information provided by the PBM. Effective January 1, 2024, all PBMs began charging DIR fees at the time of the settlement of a pharmacy claim.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but not yet Adopted

 

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-07”), which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses. ASU 2023-07 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim period within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the standard in its interim reporting beginning with Q1-2025, and the Company will adopt the standard in its annual reporting for the year ending December 31, 2024. The Company expects that the adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements but will enhance our current disclosures.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure” (“ASU 2023-09”), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. ASU 2023-09 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this accounting standard update effective January 1, 2025. The Company expects that the adoption of the standard will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to be relevant or have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
