Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for annual financial statements are not included herein. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 of Merge Healthcare Incorporated, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries and affiliates (which we sometimes refer to collectively as Merge, we, us or our).
Principles of Consolidation
|
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise noted. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable, based on information available at the time they are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

In the quarter ended March, 31, 2011, we decreased the gross carrying amount of purchased software by $61 and increased the carrying amount of customer relationships, trade names and non-competes by $591, $60 and $40, respectively, related to the finalization of accounting for insignificant acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of 2010.
Our purchased and capitalized software assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 3 inputs (as defined in Note 4). In calculating potential impairment losses, we evaluate the expected future benefit of the assets using undiscounted cash flow techniques.
Estimated aggregate amortization expense for our intangible assets, which become fully amortized in 2022, is as follows:

Fair Value Measurement
|
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable and non-marketable securities, accounts payable, notes payable, and certain accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents (which are comprised primarily of deposit and overnight sweep accounts), accounts receivable, accounts payable, and certain accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of our marketable equity security is based on the quoted price of the security in an active market. The estimated fair values of the non-marketable equity securities have been determined from information obtained from independent valuations and management estimates. The carrying value of our notes payable approximates fair value due to the interest rates and terms approximating those available to the company for similar obligations.
We use a three-tier value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in measuring fair value of our financial assets and liabilities. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore, requiring us to develop our own assumptions.
We also consider additional information in estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased, or circumstances indicate a transaction is not suitable for fair value measurement.
Non-Current Investments
At March 31, 2011, we held certain securities in a publicly traded entity and private companies which are classified within other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The investment in the publicly traded equity security, over which we do not exert significant influence, is classified as “available-for-sale” and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. Unrealized gains and losses are reported within the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholders’ equity. The investments in equity securities of private companies, over which we do not exert significant influence, are classified as Level 3 investments and are reported at cost or fair value, if an other-than-temporary loss has been determined. Any loss due to impairment in value is recorded when such loss occurs. We performed the evaluation of our Level 3 investments as of March 31, 2011, and concluded that there was no significant change in their fair value.
The following table sets forth the change in the fair value of our Level 1 publicly traded equity security:

As of March 31, 2011, $1,225 of the remaining balance was recorded in the restructuring accrual in current liabilities, with the remainder recorded in other long term liabilities.
In April 2010, we issued $200,000 of Senior Secured Notes (Notes) at 97.266% of the principal amount, which bear interest at 11.75% of principal (payable on May 1st and November 1st of each year) and will mature on May 1, 2015. The Notes were offered in a private placement pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with the Notes, we incurred issuance costs of $9,015 (which are recorded in other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011). These issuance costs are recorded as a long-term asset and amortized over the life of the Notes using the effective interest method. In the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded $6,443 of interest expense related to the Notes, including $354 and $215 in amortization of debt issuance costs and debt discount, respectively.
In the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded a cumulative dividend of $1,566 related to our outstanding preferred stock. This dividend is reflected as a reduction of net income available to common shareholders in our condensed statement of operations.
In the three months ended March 31, 2011, we issued 974,701 shares as partial consideration for an insignificant acquisition which was completed in the fourth quarter of 2010. These shares had been recorded as common stock subscribed as of December 31, 2010.

Commitments and Contingencies
|
On June 1, 2009, Merge Healthcare was sued in the Milwaukee County Circuit Court, State of Wisconsin, by William C. Mortimore and David M. Noshay with respect to the separation of Mortimore’s and Noshay’s employment and our subsequent refusal to indemnify them with respect to litigation related to their service as officers of Merge. The plaintiffs allege that we breached their employment agreements, unreasonably refused their requests for indemnification and breached other covenants of good faith and fair dealing. The plaintiffs seek indemnification and unspecified monetary damages. Discovery in this case is on-going. On April 6, 2011, the Milwaukee County Circuit Court rendered a decision in which it concluded that Merge and Mortimore entered into an oral employment contract on or about June 15, 2006, but did not make any decision as to damages, which would be addressed in a later phase of the litigation. We have retained litigation counsel and intend to continue to vigorously defend this action, including an evaluation of the Company’s rights to an appeal from the court’s April 6, 2011 decision and Order.
In January 2010, a purported stockholder class action complaint was filed in the Superior Court of Suffolk County, Massachusetts in connection with AMICAS Inc.’s (AMICAS) proposed acquisition by Thoma Bravo, LLC (the “Thoma Bravo Merger”). A second similar action was filed in the same court in February 2010 and consolidated with the first action. In March 2010, because AMICAS had terminated the Thoma Bravo Merger and agreed to be acquired by us, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims as moot. Subsequently, counsel for the plaintiffs filed an application for approximately $5,000 of attorneys’ fees for its work on this case, which fee petition AMICAS opposed. We retained litigation counsel to defend against the fee petition. On December 23, 2010, the court awarded plaintiffs approximately $3,200 in attorneys’ fees and costs. AMICAS has filed a notice of appeal from this judgment, and the plaintiffs have cross-appealed. We previously tendered the defense in this matter to our appropriate insurers, who have provided coverage against the claims asserted against AMICAS. After receipt of the court’s attorneys’ fee award decision, the applicable insurer denied policy coverage for approximately $2,500 of the fee award. We do not believe that the insurer’s denial has merit and have retained counsel to contest it. We will vigorously assert all of our rights under our applicable insurance policies, which we believe cover the claims and expenses incurred by AMICAS or us in connection with the fee award. However, an adverse outcome could negatively impact our financial condition.

On February 1, 2010, Merge filed a complaint against its former CEO, Richard Linden, and its former CFO, Scott Veech, in the U.S. District for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, seeking a declaration that we do not have to indemnify either Linden or Veech for liabilities they incurred in connection with SEC investigation and enforcement actions and various securities fraud and shareholder derivative litigation. Merge also seeks to recover from both defendants all costs incurred by Merge associated with defending Linden and Veech in those prior actions. On October 15, 2010, the court concluded that it did not have subject matter jurisdiction over Merge’s claims and dismissed the claims in their entirety. The court rendered no opinion on the merits of Merge’s claims. Merge is evaluating its further options with respect to the Scott Veech matter in Wisconsin state court. On February 8, 2011, Merge filed a complaint against its former CEO, Richard Linden, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin captioned Merge Healthcare Incorporated v. Richard Linden, Case no. 11-CV-001541. On May 4, 2011, Merge and Linden entered into a confidential settlement agreement resolving all claims against Mr. Linden and through which Linden agreed to issue a statement of regret and apology to Merge’s Board of Directors and reimburse Merge for a portion of the Company’s legal fees to defend Linden in prior legal actions. Merge believes that it has numerous meritorious claims against Mr. Veech and will continue to pursue these claims, which have not been affected by the settlement with Mr. Linden.
In August, 2010, Merge Healthcare was sued in the Northern District of Texas by the court-appointed receiver for Stanford International Bank, Ltd. The receiver alleges that Merge was a recipient of a fraudulent conveyance as a result of a Ponzi scheme orchestrated by Robert Stanford and Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (SIBL). Merge is not alleged to have participated in the Ponzi scheme. The receiver’s claims arise from the failed acquisition of Emageon, Inc. (Emageon) by Health Systems Solutions, Inc. (HSS) an affiliate of SIBL in February 2009, which resulted in the payment of a $9,000 break-up fee by HSS, which payment is alleged to have been financed by SIBL. Merge subsequently acquired Emageon as part of our AMICAS acquisition. The complaint seeks to recover the $9,000 payment to Emageon, plus interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. We have retained litigation counsel and intend to vigorously defend this action. We have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. That motion has been fully briefed, and we are awaiting a decision from the court. However, an adverse outcome could negatively impact our operating results and financial condition.
In addition to the matters discussed above, we are, from time to time, parties to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims incident to our business activities. Such matters may include, among other things, assertions of contract breach or intellectual property infringement, claims for indemnity arising in the course of our business and claims by persons whose employment has been terminated. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable. We are unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability, amounts which may be covered by insurance or recoverable from third parties, or the financial impact with respect to these matters as of the date of this report.
Guarantees
As a result of the acquisition of AMICAS, we assumed a guarantee to a lender on behalf of a customer. At March 31, 2011, the balance outstanding on the loan was approximately $805. As the customer makes loan payments to the lender, the guarantee is reduced.

Transactions with Related Party
|
Effective January 1, 2009, we entered into a consulting agreement with Merrick RIS, LLC (Merrick), an affiliate of Merrick Ventures, LLC (Merrick Ventures). We amended the agreement effective January 1, 2010 to extend the term through December 31, 2011, and modify the payment terms from a flat fee arrangement per quarter to a per transaction or success based arrangement. Michael W. Ferro, Jr. and trusts for the benefit of Mr. Ferro’s family members beneficially own a majority of the equity interest in Merrick Ventures. Mr. Ferro, who is the Chairman of our Board of Directors, also serves as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Merrick Ventures. Accordingly, Mr. Ferro indirectly owns or controls all of the shares owned by Merrick. As of March 31, 2011, Merrick and its affiliates owned approximately 37.7% of our common stock.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and in thousands, except for share and per share data)
We paid $304 and zero to Merrick for such services and recognized $94 and $250 in expenses in the three month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As of March 31, 2011 and 2010, we have $94 and $253, respectively, recorded in accounts payable covering all obligations under this agreement.
On April 1, 2010, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Merrick, under which Merrick subscribed to purchase 10,000 shares of Series A Non-Voting Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (Series A Preferred Stock) and 1,800,000 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $10,000, under the same terms and conditions as other investors.
Merrick also purchased, at the same purchase price per note as the other investors in the offering, $5.0 million of the $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes that we issued on April 28, 2010 to complete our acquisition of AMICAS.
We are subject to tax in multiple jurisdictions and record income tax expense on an interim basis using an estimated annual effective tax rate. The estimated annual effective tax rate is modified to exclude the effect of losses for those jurisdictions where the tax benefit cannot be recognized and a separate estimated annual tax rate is required. Items discrete to a specific quarter are reflected in tax expense for that interim period. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more-likely-than-not to be realized. Further limitations may apply to deferred tax assets if ownership changes occur. There was no material change in unrecognized tax benefits in the three month period ended March 31, 2011. Within the next twelve months we estimate that unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $4,119 due to statute expirations.

Earnings Per Share Available to Common Shareholders
|
Basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share are computed by dividing earnings or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Earnings or loss available to common shareholders is computed as net income or loss less the 15% cumulative annual compounding dividend earned by preferred shareholders in the respective periods. The computation of earnings or loss available to common shareholders is presented in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilution that could occur based on outstanding restricted stock awards and the potential exercise of stock options, except for stock options with an exercise price of more than the average market price of our common stock, as such exercise would be anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated:

In the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, options to purchase 1,273,768 and 1,980,467 shares of our common stock, respectively, had exercise prices greater than the average market price of our common stock, and, therefore, are not considered in the above calculations of diluted net loss per share.
As a result of the losses in the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, incremental shares from the assumed conversion of employee stock options and restricted stock awards totaling 7,800,000 and 1,280,452 shares, respectively, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Guarantor Subsidiaries
|
The obligations under the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of our current and future 100% owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (Guarantors). No other subsidiaries guarantee the Notes. The Notes and guarantees are secured by a first-priority lien on certain collateral which comprises substantially all of the Parent and Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets, subject to certain exceptions. The following tables present the balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows of the Parent, Guarantor and Non-Guarantor entities along with the eliminations necessary to arrive at the information on a consolidated basis.
General corporate expenses, including public company costs, certain amortization, corporate administration costs, acquisition-related expenses and net interest expense are included in the results of the Parent.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
|
There were no recent pronouncements that have had or may have a significant effect on our financial condition or results of operation. We do not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to our financial condition, results of operations, or related disclosures.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
|
The discussion below contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. We have used words such as “believes,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “expects” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on information currently available to us and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, performance, business prospects and opportunities and the timing of certain events to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, without limitation, those matters discussed in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Except as expressly required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update such factors or to publicly announce the results of any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events, developments, or changed circumstances, or for any other reason. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis is presented in the following order:
|
· Liquidity and Capital Resources
|
|
· Material Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
|
|
· Critical Accounting Policies
|
Our solutions are designed to help solve some of the toughest challenges in health information exchange today, such as the incorporation of medical images and diagnostic information into broader healthcare IT applications, the interoperability of proprietary software solutions, advanced clinical tools like computer aided detection (CAD), the profitability of outpatient imaging practices in the face of declining reimbursement and the ability to improve the efficiency and cost effectiveness of our customers’ businesses. Our proven ability to innovate has driven consistent expansion of solutions and services and entry into new markets. We also look to expand through strategic acquisitions that will allow us to further expand our addressable market and customer base.
We primarily generate revenue from the sale of perpetual software licenses, upgrading and/or renewing those licenses, hardware, professional services and maintenance. Except for maintenance, these contract elements comprise the majority of non-recurring revenue. Our backlog of non-recurring revenue was approximately $42.3 million as of March 31, 2011. Maintenance, which we renew annually with our customer base, is the primary component of recurring revenues. Recurring revenue also includes software licenses sold through contracts that are annually renewed and recognized ratably over the annual period and recorded as software revenue, revenues derived from SaaS offerings which are recorded as professional services revenue and Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) revenues which are recognized based on monthly transactional volumes. During the first quarter of 2011, recurring revenue was approximately 65% of total net sales.
Our solutions optimize processes for healthcare organizations ranging in size from single-doctor practices to health systems, for the sponsors of clinical trials, for the medical device industry, for the healthcare commerce system and for consumers of healthcare. These solutions are licensed by more than 1,500 hospitals; 4,000 clinics and labs, 250 OEM customers and 70% of the top pharmaceutical companies. We believe that we have an opportunity to grow revenues by expanding our solution footprint in existing customers, as only a small percent currently have more than one of our solutions. With the benefit of a broad customer base and several product lines undergoing ongoing innovation, we also believe that we are well-positioned to continue to leverage technologies into new segments where customers see value. For example, as the push for Meaningful Use incentives drives adoption of Electronic Health Records, we envision this will create significant demand for our vendor-neutral archiving and iConnect access platforms to image enable those newly deployed systems. In order to take advantage of these opportunities, we began aggressively hiring sales and marketing personnel in the fourth quarter of 2010. We continue these hiring efforts today.
Results of Operations
The following have significantly impacted the results of operations for the periods discussed herein:
|
·
|
During 2010, we expanded our product offerings through the acquisition of AMICAS, Inc. (AMICAS), an image and information management solutions provider, which we acquired on April 28, 2010 as well as five other acquisitions. As a result of the timing of the completion of the acquisition of AMICAS, the comparability of the results of operations in the three months ended March 31, 2011 differ significantly from the same period in 2010. In addition, in the three months ended March 31, 2010, we incurred $5.9 million in acquisition related expenses associated with the acquisition of AMICAS.
|
|
·
|
We issued $200.0 million of Senior Secured Notes (Notes) in April 2010 as part of the financing for the acquisition of AMICAS. The Notes were issued at 97.266% of the principal amount, are due in 2015 and bear interest at 11.75% of principal (payable on May 1st and November 1st of each year). In connection with the Notes, we incurred issuance costs of $9.0 million. The three months ended March 31, 2011 include three months of interest expense and amortization of the original issuance discount and costs of the Notes, while 2010 has no such expenses.

Net Sales
Software and Other Sales. Total software and other sales in 2011 were $18.7 million, an increase of $9.3 million, or 99.4%, from $9.4 million in 2010, primarily due to sales arising from the acquisition of AMICAS. We anticipate that the revenue recognized from software and other sales may vary significantly on a quarterly basis.
Professional Services Sales. Total professional services sales in 2011 were $8.4 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 124.3%, from $3.7 million in 2010, primarily due to sales arising from the acquisition of AMICAS.
Maintenance and EDI Sales. Total maintenance and EDI sales in 2011 were $25.6 million, an increase of $18.7 million, or 273.2%, from $6.9 million in 2010 due to sales arising from the acquisition of AMICAS.
Gross Margin
Gross Margin – Software and Other Sales. Gross margin on software and other sales was $12.1 million in 2011, an increase of $3.4 million, or 39.6%, from $8.7 million in 2010. Gross margin as a percentage of software and other sales decreased to 64.8% in 2011 from 92.5% in 2010, due to an increase in hardware sales, which are at lower margins than software only sales, as a result of the acquisition of AMICAS. Hardware sales were 28% of software and other sales in 2011 compared to 5% in 2010. We expect gross margin on software and other sales to fluctuate depending on the mix of sales among our products.
Gross Margin – Professional Service Sales. Gross margin on professional service sales was $3.3 million in 2011, an increase of $2.6 million, or 346.1%, from $0.7 million in 2010. Gross margin as a percentage of professional service sales increased to 39.7% in 2011 from 20.0% in 2010, primarily due to an increase in the billable utilization of our professional services resources. As the majority of professional services costs are fixed, we expect gross margins going forward to fluctuate depending on billable utilization of these resources.
Gross Margin – Maintenance and EDI Sales. Gross margin on maintenance and EDI sales was $17.6 million in 2011, an increase of $12.3 million, or 228.9%, from $5.3 million in 2010. Gross margin as a percentage of maintenance and EDI sales decreased to 68.9% in 2011 from 78.2% in 2010, primarily due to the impact of the AMICAS acquisition, which included more third party maintenance costs. Further, EDI margins are typically lower than that of maintenance.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.3 million, or 105.2%, to $2.5 million in 2011 from $1.2 million in 2010, primarily due to the acquisition of AMICAS.
Sales and marketing expense increased $5.9 million, or 208.4%, to $8.7 million in 2011 from $2.8 million in 2010, primarily due to the acquisition of AMICAS. As a percentage of net sales, sales and marketing expense increased by 2.4% to 16.5% as a result of our investments in these functions to allow us to meet our sales goals. We expect that our quarterly sales and marketing expenses will continue to increase in 2011 as we invest further in these functions.
Product Research and Development
|
Product research and development expense increased $3.5 million, or 107.4%, to $6.8 million in 2011 from $3.3 million in 2010, primarily due to the acquisition of AMICAS. As a percentage of net sales, product research and development decreased by 3.5% to 12.8% as we were able to leverage our innovation efforts. We expect that our quarterly product research and development expense will increase in 2011 as we invest and grow these functions to allow us to innovate and expand our product solution capabilities.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense increased $2.7 million, or 71.1%, to $6.6 million in 2011 from $3.9 million in 2010, primarily due to the acquisition of AMICAS. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased by 6.8% to 12.5% as a result of the cost saving initiatives which were implemented in connection with the acquisition of AMICAS. We expect to leverage our current level of general and administrative operations during 2011.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.8 million, or 215.5%, to $2.6 million in 2011 from $0.8 million in 2010, due to depreciation and amortization on fixed assets and intangible assets acquired from AMICAS.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Net other expense increased $6.6 million in 2011, primarily due to $6.5 million of interest expense and amortization of issuance costs and note discount associated with our $200.0 million Notes issued to fund the AMICAS acquisition.
Income Tax Expense
In 2011, we recorded income tax expense of $0.8 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of (113.6%) compared to (1.5%) of income tax expense recorded in 2010. The effective tax rate for 2011 differs significantly from the statutory rate primarily due to non-cash income tax expense being recorded for profitable foreign operations that cannot be offset by unprofitable U.S. domestic operations requiring a full valuation allowance. The effective tax rate for 2010 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the effect of changes in valuation allowances in both our primary foreign and domestic tax jurisdictions. Our expected effective income tax rate is volatile and may move up or down with changes in, among other items, operating income and the results of changes in tax laws and regulations of the U.S. and the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
|
Our cash and cash equivalents were $47.7 million at March 31, 2011, an increase of approximately $6.7 million, or 16.3%, from our balance of $41.0 million at December 31, 2010. In addition, our working capital was $36.7 million at March 31, 2011, an increase of $7.9 million from our working capital of $28.8 million at December 31, 2010.
The change in cash and cash equivalents during the three month periods ended March 31, 2011and 2010 is attributed to the following factors:

Cash provided by operating activities was $6.9 million in 2011, compared to cash used in operating activities of $4.6 million in 2010. The net loss in 2011 of $1.6 million includes non-cash expenses of $7.2 million and interest expense from our Notes of $5.9 million, which is not payable until May 2011. In addition, the timing between the recording of acquisition-related and restructuring costs and payments thereof impacted operating cash flows.
In addition to the payments related to restructuring initiatives as noted in the table above, we have remaining payments as of March 31, 2011 of $1.6 million. DSO, based on pro forma revenues, was 91 days in the first quarter of 2011 compared to a quarterly average of 99 days in 2010.

The above obligations include lease payments, net of contractually committed sub-lease income of $0.2 million, $0.4 million, zero and zero in the respective periods indicated, involving facilities that we use and those we have either ceased to use or previously abandoned.
Except for restricted cash of $0.8 million (primarily letters-of-credit related to our leased facilities) and a $0.8 million guarantee to a lender on behalf of a customer of ours at March 31, 2011, we do not have any other significant long-term obligations, contractual obligations, lines of credit, standby letters of credit, guarantees, standby repurchase obligations or other commercial commitments.
We believe our current cash and cash equivalent balances will be sufficient to meet our operating, financing and capital requirements through at least the next 12 months, including interest payments due under the Notes. However, any projections of future cash inflows and outflows are subject to uncertainty. In the event that it is necessary to raise additional capital to meet our short term or long term liquidity needs, such capital may be raised through additional debt, equity offerings or sale of certain assets. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or debt securities, such securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of our common stock. Furthermore, the number of shares of any new equity or equity-related securities that may be issued may result in significant dilution to existing shareholders. In addition, the issuance of debt securities could increase the liquidity risk or perceived liquidity risk that we face. We cannot, however, be certain that additional financing, or funds from asset sales, will be available on acceptable terms. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we will likely not be able to take advantage of opportunities, develop or enhance services or products or respond to competitive pressures. Any projections of future cash inflows and outflows are subject to uncertainty. In particular, our uses of cash in 2011 and beyond will depend on a variety of factors such as the costs to implement our business strategy, the amount of cash that we are required to devote to defend and address any regulatory proceedings, and potential merger and acquisition activities.
For a more detailed description of risks and uncertainties that may affect our liquidity, see Item 1A., “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

We have no material off balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
|
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates these estimates. We base our estimates and judgments on our experience, our current knowledge (including terms of existing contracts), our beliefs of what could occur in the future, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and information available from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
We have identified the following accounting policies and estimates as those that we believe are most critical to our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most subjective and complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent uncertainties: revenue recognition, allowance for sales returns and doubtful accounts, intangible assets and goodwill, share-based compensation expense, income taxes, guarantees and loss contingencies. There have been no significant changes in the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011 in our method of application of these critical accounting policies. For a complete description of our critical accounting policies, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Our cash and cash equivalents are exposed to financial market risk due to fluctuations in interest rates, which may affect our interest income. As of March 31, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents included money market funds and short term deposits totaling $47.7 million, and earned interest at a weighted average rate of approximately 0.2%. The value of the principal amounts is equal to the fair value for these instruments. Due to the relative short-term nature of our investment portfolio, our interest income is vulnerable to changes in short-term interest rates. At current investment levels, our results of operations would vary by approximately $0.5 million on an annual basis for every 100 basis point change in our weighted average short-term interest rate. We do not use our portfolio for trading or other speculative purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
|
We have sales and expenses in Canada, China and Europe that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and, as a result, have exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. In the event our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk increases to levels that we do not deem acceptable, we may choose to hedge those exposures. We did not enter into any derivative financial instruments to hedge such exposures in 2011 or 2010.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
|
We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to provide resonable assurance of achieving their objectives, as of March 31, 2011, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure (1) that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
|
There were no changes with respect to our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting in the quarterly period ended March 31, 2011.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
On June 1, 2009, Merge Healthcare was sued in the Milwaukee County Circuit Court, State of Wisconsin, by William C. Mortimore and David M. Noshay with respect to the separation of Mortimore’s and Noshay’s employment and our subsequent refusal to indemnify them with respect to litigation related to their service as officers of Merge. The plaintiffs allege that we breached their employment agreements, unreasonably refused their requests for indemnification and breached other covenants of good faith and fair dealing. The plaintiffs seek indemnification and unspecified monetary damages. Discovery in this case is on-going. On April 6, 2011, the Milwaukee County Circuit Court rendered a decision in which it concluded that Merge and Mortimore entered into an oral employment contract on or about June 15, 2006, but did not make any decision as to damages, which would be addressed in a later phase of the litigation. We have retained litigation counsel and intend to continue to vigorously defend this action, including an evaluation of the Company’s rights to an appeal from the court’s April 6, 2011 decision and Order.
In January 2010, a purported stockholder class action complaint was filed in the Superior Court of Suffolk County, Massachusetts in connection with AMICAS’ proposed acquisition by Thoma Bravo, LLC (the “Thoma Bravo Merger”). A second similar action was filed in the same court in February 2010 and consolidated with the first action. In March 2010, because AMICAS had terminated the Thoma Bravo Merger and agreed to be acquired by us, the court dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims as moot. Subsequently, counsel for the plaintiffs filed an application for approximately $5.0 million of attorneys’ fees for its work on this case, which fee petition AMICAS opposed. We retained litigation counsel to defend against the fee petition. On December 23, 2010, the court awarded plaintiffs approximately $3.2 million in attorneys’ fees and costs. AMICAS has filed a notice of appeal from this judgment, and the plaintiffs have cross-appealed. We previously tendered the defense in this matter to our appropriate insurers, who have provided coverage against the claims asserted against AMICAS. After receipt of the court’s attorneys’ fee award decision, the applicable insurer denied policy coverage for approximately $2.5 million of the fee award. We do not believe that the insurer’s denial has merit and have retained counsel to contest it. We will vigorously assert all of our rights under our applicable insurance policies, which we believe cover the claims and expenses incurred by AMICAS or us in connection with the fee award. However, an adverse outcome could negatively impact our financial condition.
On February 1, 2010, Merge filed a complaint against its former CEO, Richard Linden and its former CFO, Scott Veech, in the U.S. District for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, seeking a declaration that we do not have to indemnify either Linden or Veech for liabilities they incurred in connection with SEC investigation and enforcement actions and various securities fraud and shareholder derivative litigation. Merge also seeks to recover from both defendants all costs incurred by Merge associated with defending Linden and Veech in those prior actions. On October 15, 2010, the court concluded that it did not have subject matter jurisdiction over Merge’s claims and dismissed the claims in their entirety. The court rendered no opinion on the merits of Merge’s claims. Merge is evaluating its further options with respect to the Scott Veech matter in Wisconsin state court. On February 8, 2011, Merge filed a complaint against its former CEO, Richard Linden, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin captioned Merge Healthcare Incorporated v. Richard Linden, Case no. 11-CV-001541. On May 4, 2011, Merge and Linden entered into a confidential settlement agreement resolving all claims against Mr. Linden and through which Linden agreed to issue a statement of regret and apology to Merge’s Board of Directors and reimburse Merge for a portion of the Company’s legal fees to defend Linden in prior legal actions. Merge believes that it has numerous meritorious claims against Mr. Veech and will continue to pursue these claims, which have not been affected by the settlement with Mr. Linden.
In August, 2010, Merge Healthcare was sued in the Northern District of Texas by the court-appointed receiver for Stanford International Bank, Ltd. The receiver alleges that Merge was a recipient of a fraudulent conveyance as a result of a Ponzi scheme orchestrated by Robert Stanford and Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (SIBL). Merge is not alleged to have participated in the Ponzi scheme. The receiver’s claims arise from the failed acquisition of Emageon, Inc. (Emageon) by Health Systems Solutions, Inc. (HSS) an affiliate of SIBL in February 2009, which resulted in the payment of a $9.0 million break-up fee by HSS, which payment is alleged to have been financed by SIBL. Merge subsequently acquired Emageon as part of our AMICAS acquisition. The complaint seeks to recover the $9.0 million payment to Emageon, plus interest, costs, and attorneys’ fees. We have retained litigation counsel and intend to vigorously defend this action. We have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. That motion has been fully briefed, and we are awaiting a decision from the court. However, an adverse outcome could negatively impact our operating results and financial condition.
In addition to the matters discussed above, we are, from time to time, parties to legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims incident to our business activities. Such matters may include, among other things, assertions of contract breach or intellectual property infringement, claims for indemnity arising in the course of our business and claims by persons whose employment has been terminated. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes are not predictable. We are unable to estimate the ultimate aggregate amount of monetary liability, amounts which may be covered by insurance or recoverable from third parties, or the financial impact with respect to these matters as of the date of this report.
