Electromed, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

 

 

Note 1.

Interim Financial Reporting

Basis of presentation: Electromed, Inc. (the “Company”) develops, manufactures and markets innovative airway clearance products which apply High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (“HFCWO”) therapy in pulmonary care for patients of all ages. The Company markets its products in the United States to the home health care and institutional markets for use by patients in personal residences, hospitals and clinics. The Company also sells internationally both directly and through distributors. International sales were approximately $149,000 and $109,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Since its inception, the Company has operated in a single industry segment: developing, manufacturing and marketing medical equipment.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for annual reports. This interim report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Principles of consolidation: The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Electromed, Inc. and its subsidiary, Electromed Financial, LLC. Operating activities and net assets in Electromed Financial, LLC were insignificant as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and the year ended June 30, 2013.

Liquidity: For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $335,000, primarily as a result of a decrease in domestic home care revenues. Cash provided by operating activities was $742,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The principal sources of liquidity in the future are expected to be cash flows from operations and availability on our line of credit. In order to operate profitably in the future, the Company must increase its revenue.

The Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows in fiscal 2014 could be negatively impacted by the business challenges in reimbursement from third party payers. There continues to be downward pressure on pricing and added administrative procedures implemented by third party payers in the insurance claims process which has lengthened the approval process compared with the prior year. In fiscal 2013, one of the largest domestic third party payers decentralized its contracting process. As a result, the decentralization has required significantly more administrative efforts on the part of the Company to complete the necessary contracts to maintain our national coverage with that payer. Certain contracts were resolved during fiscal 2013, although the final completion of this process has extended into fiscal year 2014. The challenges the Company currently faces could result in future noncompliance with the covenants contained within the Company’s credit facility. Any failure to comply with these covenants in the future may result in an event of default, which if not cured or waived, could result in the lender accelerating the maturity of the Company’s indebtedness or preventing access to additional funds under the credit facility, or requiring prepayment of outstanding indebtedness under the credit facility. If the maturity of the indebtedness is accelerated, or the Company is unable to renew the line of credit, sufficient cash resources to satisfy the debt obligations may not be available and the Company may not be able to continue operations as planned. The indebtedness under the credit agreement is secured by a security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible assets of the Company. If the Company is unable to repay such indebtedness, the bank could foreclose on these assets.

Table of Contents


A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies follows:

Use of estimates: Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used. The Company believes the critical accounting policies that require the most significant assumptions and judgments in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition and the related estimation of selling price adjustments, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, share-based compensation, income taxes and the warranty reserve.

Net loss per common share: Net loss is presented on a per share basis for both basic and diluted common shares. Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The diluted net loss per common share calculation assumes that all stock warrants were exercised and converted into common stock at the beginning of the period, unless their effect would be anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents of 614,900 and 599,900 were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September, 2013 and 2012, respectively, as their impact was antidilutive.

Finite-Life Intangible Assets

The carrying value of patents and trademarks includes the original cost of obtaining the patents, periodic renewal fees, and other costs associated with maintaining and defending patent and trademark rights. Patents and trademarks are amortized over their estimated useful lives, generally 15 and 12 years, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $511,000 and $479,000 at September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

Note 4.

Warranty Liability

The Company provides a lifetime warranty on its products to the prescribed patient for sales within the United States and a three-year warranty for all institutional sales and sales to individuals outside the United States. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs at the time the product is shipped. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of units shipped, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability were approximately as follows:

Note 5.

Income Taxes

On a quarterly basis, the Company estimates what its effective tax rate will be for the full fiscal year and records a quarterly income tax provision (benefit) based on the anticipated rate. As the year progresses, the Company refines its estimate based on the facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was 43.4% and 46.6%, respectively.

 

 

Note 6.

Financing Arrangements

The Company has a credit facility that provides for term loans and a revolving line of credit of $2,250,000, as of September 30, 2013. The line of credit expires on December 31, 2013, if not renewed. Advances are due at the expiration date and are secured by substantially all Company assets. Interest on advances accrues at LIBOR plus 3.50% (3.75% at September 30, 2013) and is payable monthly. The amount available for borrowing is limited to 60% of eligible accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had net unused availability of $2,250,000 under the line of credit. The Company’s credit facility contains certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and restricts the payment of dividends. The Company is working with the bank to renew its line of credit. Given the Company’s ability to service its debt and its past relationship with its lender, the Company believes that it will be able to successfully renew the line of credit.

 

 

Note 7.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is occasionally involved in claims and disputes arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company insures its business risks where possible to mitigate the financial impact of individual claims, and establishes reserves for an estimate of any probable cost of settlement or other disposition.

 

 

Note 8.

Related Parties

The Company uses a parts supplier whose founder and president is a director of the Company. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company made payments to the supplier of approximately $14,000 and $101,000, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

          Some of the statements in this report may contain forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect our current view on future events, future business, industry and other conditions, our future performance, and our plans and expectations for future operations and actions. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: anticipate, believe, continue, could, estimate, expect, intend, may, ongoing, plan, potential, predict, project, should, will, would, or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Our forward-looking statements in this report primarily relate to the following: our expectations regarding international markets and their impact on our sales; our expectations regarding long-term margins; our expectations regarding research and development expenses; our expectations regarding sales growth, future efficiencies and profitability with the increase in our sales force; our expectations regarding capital expenditures; our expectations regarding insurance coverage for incurred litigation expenses; and our beliefs regarding the sufficiency of working capital and our ability and intention with regard to future financing. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our results or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from the information expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information.

          You should read this report thoroughly with the understanding that our actual results and actions may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the reasons described in this report. These factors include, but are not limited to: the competitive nature of our market; the risks associated with expansion into international markets; changes to Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance reimbursement policies; changes to health care laws; changes affecting the medical device industry; our need to maintain regulatory compliance and to gain future regulatory approvals and clearances; our ability to recruit, train and retain an effective sales force, reimbursement staff, and patient services staff; our ability to protect our intellectual property; the effect of litigation, including legal expenses, which may arise with respect to our intellectual property in the ordinary course of business or otherwise; the impact of tight credit markets on our ability to continue to obtain financing on reasonable terms; and general economic and business conditions.

Overview

          Electromed, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Electromed”) was incorporated in 1992. We are engaged in the business of providing innovative airway clearance products applying High Frequency Chest Wall Oscillation (“HFCWO”) therapy in pulmonary care for patients of all ages.

          We manufacture, market and sell products that provide HFCWO, including the Electromed, Inc. SmartVest® Airway Clearance System (SmartVest System) and related products, to patients with compromised pulmonary function. The products are sold for both the home health care market and the institutional market for use by patients in hospitals, which are referred to as “institutional sales.” For approximately twelve years, we have marketed the SmartVest System and its predecessor products to patients suffering from cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis (including chronic bronchitis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that has resulted in a diagnosis of bronchiectasis), or any one of certain enumerated neuro-muscular diseases. Reimbursement often requires the patients with these conditions to demonstrate that another less expensive physical or mechanical treatment did not adequately mobilize retained secretions. Additionally, we offer such products, upon physician prescription to a patient population that includes post-surgical and intensive care patients, patients with end-stage neuromuscular disease, and ventilator-dependent patients. Our goal is to be a consistent innovator with unmatched customer service in providing HFCWO to patients with impaired pulmonary function.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

          Our critical accounting policies and estimates are disclosed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and Note 1 to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The critical accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements as of September 30, 2013 have remained unchanged from June 30, 2013.

          Some of our accounting policies require us to exercise significant judgment in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial statements. Such judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based upon our historical experience, known trends in our industry, terms of existing contracts and other information from outside sources, as appropriate. We believe the critical accounting policies that require the most significant assumptions and judgments in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements include: revenue recognition and the estimation of selling price adjustments, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, share-based compensation, income taxes, and warranty liability.

          Home Care Revenue. Home care revenue was approximately $2,843,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of approximately $731,000, or 20.5%, compared to the same period in 2012. The decrease in revenue was caused by lower average selling price with continued downward pricing pressure and a decrease in referral counts, as compared with the same period in the prior year. There also continues to be added administrative procedures implemented by third party payers in the insurance claims process which has lengthened the approval process compared to the prior year. In fiscal 2013, one of the largest domestic third party payers, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, decentralized its contracting process. As a result, the decentralization has required significantly more administrative efforts on the part of the Company to complete the necessary contracts to maintain our national coverage with that payer. Certain contracts were resolved during fiscal 2013, although the final completion of this process has extended into fiscal year 2014.

          International Revenue. International revenue was approximately $149,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of approximately $40,000, or 36.7%, compared to the same period in 2012.

          Government/Institutional Revenue. Government/institutional revenue was approximately $426,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of approximately $78,000, or 22.4%, compared to approximately $348,000 during the same period in 2012. This resulted from a $127,000 increase in Government sales, which increased to approximately $188,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, from approximately $61,000 during the same period the prior year. Institutional revenue, which includes sales to distributors, group purchasing organization (GPO) members, and other institutions, decreased by $49,000 compared to the same period the prior year. The overall increase in Institutional and Governmental sales was the result of the continued focused efforts of our sales force.

          Gross Profit

          Gross profit decreased to approximately $2,356,000, or 68.9% of net revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2013, from approximately $2,821,000, or 70.0% of net revenues in the same period in 2012. The decrease in gross profit dollars resulted primarily from the decrease in sales volume. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily the result of reduced leverage of manufacturing costs on lower revenue levels. We believe that as we grow sales, we will again be able to leverage manufacturing costs more effectively and margins will return to historical levels above 70%. The decrease in gross profit percentage was also the result of lower than average reimbursement from the mix of referrals during the three months ended September 30, 2013. Factors such as diagnoses that are not assured of reimbursement, insurance programs with lower allowable reimbursement amounts (for example, state Medicaid programs), and whether the patient meets prerequisite medical criteria for reimbursement, affect average reimbursement received.

          Operating expenses

          Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were approximately $2,724,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of approximately $92,000, or 3.3%, compared to SG&A expenses of approximately $2,816,000 for the same period the prior year. Payroll and compensation-related expenses were approximately $1,388,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of approximately $52,000, or 3.9%, compared to approximately $1,336,000 in the same period the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a change in our sales compensation plan which resulted in higher total sales compensation compared to the same period in 2012.

          Professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were approximately $281,000, an increase of approximately $37,000 compared to approximately $244,000 in the same period in the prior year. These fees are for services related to legal costs, reporting requirements, expenses related to information technology security and backup, and expenses for printing and other shareowner services. The increase in fees over the same period last year was primarily due to a shareholder’s proposal at our 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and the resulting litigation, which has now been concluded by settlement of the parties (see Part II, Item 1 for further discussion). We have insurance for professional fees and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation and are working with our insurance carrier on coverage matters. While we believe that a majority of our fees and expenses incurred as a result of the litigation will be covered by insurance, there can be no guarantee of any specific coverage amount.

          Advertising and marketing expenses, including tradeshows and event sponsorships for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased by approximately $52,000 to approximately $108,000, compared to approximately $160,000 in the same period in the prior year. The decrease was related to bringing marketing leadership in-house, thus reducing our external marketing fees, as well as targeting more cost-effective advertising. Travel, meals and entertainment expenses were approximately $314,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of approximately $55,000, or 14.9%, compared to approximately $369,000 for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to the elimination of industry training that was sponsored by Electromed, as well as eliminating costs related to tradeshows that do not fit our growth strategies.

          In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $31,000 compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of the medical device excise tax that went into effect January 1, 2013.

          Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were approximately $209,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of approximately $108,000, or 107%, compared to approximately $101,000 in the same period the prior year. Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were 6.1% of revenue, compared to 2.5% of revenue in the same period the prior year. As a percentage of revenue, management expects to spend up to 5.0% of revenue on research and development expenses over the long term, although the timing of certain projects will cause the expense in any individual quarter to fluctuate.

          Interest expense

          Interest expense was approximately $23,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of approximately $18,000, or 43.9%, compared to approximately $41,000 for the same period the prior year. The decrease resulted from a decrease in average debt outstanding due to payments on term loans.

          Income tax benefit

          Income tax benefit is estimated at approximately $257,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to income tax benefit of $62,000 in the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 were 43.4% and 46.6%, respectively.

          Net loss

          Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $335,000 compared to net loss of approximately $71,000 for the same period the prior year. The net loss was primarily the result of a decrease in domestic home care revenue caused by lower average selling price with continued downward pricing pressure and a decrease in referral counts, year over year. There also continues to be added administrative procedures implemented by third party payers in the insurance claims process which has lengthened the approval process compared to the prior year. In fiscal 2013, one of the largest domestic third party payers, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, decentralized its contracting process. As a result, the decentralization has required significantly more administrative efforts on the part of the Company to complete the necessary contracts to maintain our national coverage with that payer. Certain contracts were resolved during fiscal 2013, although the final completion of this process has extended into fiscal year 2014. The net loss was also impacted by reduced leverage of manufacturing costs on lower revenue levels which decreased our gross margin percentage, as well as by the increase in legal expenses primarily due to a shareholder’s proposal at our 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and the resulting litigation, which has now been concluded by settlement of the parties (see Part II, Item 1 for further discussion).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Sources of Liquidity

          Cash Flows from Operating Activities

          For the three months ended September 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $742,000. Cash flows provided by operations consisted of approximately $335,000 in net loss, offset by non-cash expenses of approximately $214,000, decreases in accounts receivable of $1,025,000, and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of approximately $161,000. In addition, inventory, prepaid expenses and other assets increased by approximately $323,000.

          For the three months ended September 30, 2012, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $114,000. Cash flows provided by operations consisted of approximately $71,000 in net loss, adjusted for non-cash expenses of approximately $198,000, offset by decreases in accounts receivable and inventory of $435,000 and $87,000, respectively, and increases in prepaid expenses and other assets of $188,000. In addition, accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased by approximately $347,000.

Table of Contents


          Management believes that the net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2013 was attributable, in part, to the reduction of expenses and better accounts receivable collection as demonstrated by the decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $1,025,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to a decrease of approximately $435,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

          Cash Flows from Investing Activities

          For the three months ended September 30, 2013, cash used in investing activities was approximately $149,000 for purchases of property and equipment.

          For the three months ended September 30, 2012, cash used in investing activities was approximately $224,000. During this period we paid approximately $197,000 for purchases of property and equipment. We also paid approximately $27,000 for patent related costs.

          Cash Flows from Financing Activities

          For the three months ended September 30, 2013, cash used in financing activities was approximately $19,000, which consisted entirely of principal payments on long-term debt.

          For the three months ended September 30, 2012, cash used in financing activities was approximately $110,000, which consisted entirely of principal payments on long-term debt.

Adequacy of Capital Resources

          Based on our current operational performance, we believe our working capital of approximately $10 million and available borrowings under the existing credit facility will provide adequate liquidity for the next year. Our current line of credit expires on December 31, 2013. Based on our ability to service our debt we believe that we will be able to renew our line of credit prior to December 31, 2013 or obtain alternative financing. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to procure additional financing upon favorable terms, if at all. The Company’s credit facility contains certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and restricts the payment of dividends. The agreement also contains financial covenants that require maintaining minimum liquidity, a minimum EBITDA and maintenance of certain fixed charge and balance sheet leverage ratios.

          Any failure to comply with these covenants in the future may result in an event of default, which if not cured or waived, could result in the lender accelerating the maturity of our indebtedness or preventing access to additional funds under the credit facility, or requiring prepayment of outstanding indebtedness under the credit facility, or the inability to renew the line of credit. If the maturity of the indebtedness is accelerated or the line of credit is not renewed, sufficient cash resources to satisfy the debt obligations may not be available and we may not be able to continue operations as planned. The indebtedness under the credit agreement is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our tangible and intangible assets of the Company. If we are unable to repay such indebtedness, the bank could foreclose on these assets.

          We have an amended and restated credit facility with U.S. Bank, National Association (“U.S. Bank”), which was most recently amended on July 8, 2013, that provides for a revolving line of credit of $2,250,000, and $2,520,000 in term debt. The term debt consists of a $1,520,000 term loan (“Term Loan A”) that bears interest at 5.79% and a $1,000,000 term loan (“Term Loan B”) that bore interest at 4.28% and was paid in full during October 2012.

Table of Contents


          Interest on the operating line of credit accrues at LIBOR plus 3.50% (3.75% at September 30, 2013) and is payable monthly. The amount eligible for borrowing on the line of credit is limited to 60% of eligible accounts receivable. The line of credit will expire on December 31, 2013, if not earlier renewed. Term Loan A requires monthly payments of principal and interest of approximately $10,700 and has a maturity date of December 9, 2014. As of September 30, 2013, we had no outstanding borrowings on the operating line of credit and approximately $1,318,000 outstanding on Term Loan A for a total amount outstanding under the U.S. Bank credit facility of approximately $1,318,000. As of September 30, 2013, we had net unused availability of $2,250,000 under the line of credit. We are required to pay a fee of 0.125% per annum on unused portions of the revolving line of credit.

          For the first three months of fiscal years 2013 and 2012, we spent approximately $148,000 and $197,000 on property and equipment, respectively. We currently expect to finance equipment purchases with cash flows from operations or borrowings under our credit facility. We may need to incur additional debt if we have an unforeseen need for additional capital equipment or if our operating performance does not generate adequate cash flows.

          In May 2012, we entered into a separation agreement and release with our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, which called for a payment equal to one year’s base salary of $209,000 payable on December 1, 2012. In July 2012, he also received earned and unpaid bonus for the period through May 11, 2012 of approximately $96,000. The Company agreed to make payments of all COBRA health insurance premiums for a period of 18 months following the effective date of retirement, estimated at $16,500. In connection with the litigation relating to our 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which included a claim relating to alleged breaches of the separation agreement, we withheld payment of the $209,000 pending resolution of the litigation. On September 6, 2013, we settled the litigation with our former Chief Executive Officer and entered into an agreement with him that requires a payment by us of $150,000 in exchange for an extended standstill agreement preventing him from taking certain actions relating to the control of the company for a period of three years from September 6, 2013, restrictions on his ability to vote his shares of Electromed for 18 months from September 6, 2013 and certain other agreements. We paid the $150,000 due to the former Chief Executive Officer during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Certain Information Concerning Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

          We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

          As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide disclosure pursuant to this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes to Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

          There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first three months of fiscal 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

          Occasionally, we may be party to legal actions, proceedings, or claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims based on assertions of patent and trademark infringement. Corresponding costs are accrued when it is probable that loss will be incurred and the amount can be precisely or reasonably estimated. We are not aware of any undisclosed actual or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

          On December 7, 2012, we instituted a lawsuit in the District Court for Scott County, Minnesota against Eileen Manning, the proponent of a shareholder proposal at the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) seeking to elect two individuals to the Company’s board of directors, and Robert D. Hansen, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Company asserted that Ms. Manning, the owner of an entity that formerly provided marketing services to the Company, violated the proxy solicitation rules in connection with the nomination and election of directors at the Annual Meeting. Ms. Manning asserted a counterclaim alleging that the Company has violated her rights as a shareholder by failing to count and certify the results of the election. The Company also asserted that Mr. Hansen violated his Separation Agreement and Release in connection with his actions relating to Ms. Manning’s proposal prior to and at the Annual Meeting and sought declaratory relief and damages. Mr. Hansen asserted a counterclaim alleging that the Company breached the Separation Agreement and Release by failing to make a payment of $209,000 to him under the agreement, as well as that the Company has violated his rights as a shareholder by failing to make the payment under the agreement. On September 6, 2013, we settled the litigation with Mr. Hansen and entered into an agreement with him that required a payment by us of $150,000 in exchange for an extended standstill agreement preventing him from taking certain actions relating to the control of the Company for a period of three years from September 6, 2013, restrictions on his ability to vote his shares of Electromed for 18 months from September 6, 2013, and certain other agreements. We paid the $150,000 due to the former Chief Executive Officer during the three months ended September 30, 2013. On September 23, 2013, the Company settled the litigation with Ms. Manning and entered into an agreement with her whereby Ms. Manning agreed to dismiss her claims with prejudice, to refrain from taking certain actions relating to the control of the Company for a period of three years from September 23, 2013, and to withdraw her nomination of two individuals for election to the Company’s board of directors, in addition to certain other agreements.

               We have insurance for professional fees and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation described in the immediately preceding paragraph and are working with our insurance carrier on coverage matters. While we believe that a majority of our fees and expenses incurred as a result of the litigation will be covered by insurance, there can be no guarantee of any specific coverage amount.

Item 5. Other Information

          On September 23, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Eileen Manning. Previously, on September 6, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Robert D. Hansen, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to these settlement agreements, the Company resolved a lawsuit filed by the Company against Ms. Manning and Mr. Hansen in December 2012.

          On December 7, 2012, the Company instituted a lawsuit in the District Court for Scott County, Minnesota against Ms. Manning, the proponent of a shareholder proposal at the Company’s 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) seeking to elect two individuals to the Company’s board of directors, and Mr. Hansen, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The Company asserted that Ms. Manning, the owner of an entity that formerly provided marketing services to the Company, violated the proxy solicitation rules in connection with the nomination and election of directors at the Annual Meeting. Ms. Manning asserted a counterclaim alleging that the Company has violated her rights as a shareholder by failing to count and certify the results of the election. The Company also asserted that Mr. Hansen violated his Separation Agreement and Release in connection with his actions relating to Ms. Manning’s proposal prior to and at the Annual Meeting and sought declaratory relief and damages. Mr. Hansen asserted a counterclaim alleging that the Company breached the Separation Agreement and Release by failing to make a payment of $209,000 to him under the agreement, as well as that the Company has violated his rights as a shareholder by failing to make the payment under the agreement.

          On September 6, 2013, the Company settled the litigation with Mr. Hansen and entered into an agreement with him that required a payment by us of $150,000 in exchange for an extended standstill agreement preventing him from taking certain actions relating to the control of the Company for a period of three years from September 6, 2013, restrictions on his ability to vote his shares of Electromed for 18 months from September 6, 2013 and certain other agreements. We paid the $150,000 due to the former Chief Executive Officer during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

          On September 23, 2013, the Company settled the litigation with Ms. Manning and entered into an agreement with her whereby Ms. Manning agreed to dismiss her claims with prejudice, to refrain from taking certain actions relating to the control of the Company for a period of three years from September 23, 2013 and to withdraw her nomination of two individuals for election to the Company’s board of directors, in addition to certain other agreements.

          The foregoing summaries of the settlement agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the settlement agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4, and are incorporated herein by reference.
