Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Description of Business
Organization and description of business
OneMedNet Corporation (the “Company”) is a healthcare software company with solutions focused on digital medical image management, exchange, and sharing. The Company was founded in Delaware on November 20, 2015. The Company has been solely focused on creating solutions that simplify digital medical image management, exchange, and sharing. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc., incorporated on October 16, 2015 under the provisions of the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar. The Company’s headquarters location is Eden Prairie, Minnesota.
On November 7, 2023, Data Knights Merger Sub, Inc., (“Merger Sub”) a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Data Knights Acquisition Corp. (“Data Knights”), a Delaware corporation, merged with and into OneMedNet Solutions Corporation (formerly named OneMedNet Corporation) (“Legacy ONMD”), with Legacy ONMD surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Data Knights (the “Business Combination”). Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Data Knights was renamed to “OneMedNet Corporation.”
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain notes or other financial information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results for the interim periods presented. The results from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2024, or for any future annual or interim period.
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, filed with the SEC on November 5, 2024 (the “Form 10-K/A”).
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, OneMedNet Technologies (Canada) Inc. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidity and going concern
The Company has incurred recurring net losses since its inception, including $2.1 million and $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $93.5 million as of March 31, 2024. The Company’s cash balance of $0.2 million is not adequate to fund its operations through at least twelve months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were available for issuance. Therefore, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
To continue in existence and expand its operations, the Company will be required to, and management plans to, raise additional working capital through an equity or debt offering and ultimately hopes to attain profitable operations to fulfill its operating and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the date of the issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements. However, the Company may not be able to secure such financing in a timely manner or on favorable terms, if at all. Furthermore, if the Company issues equity securities to raise additional funds, its existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the Company’s existing stockholders. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue receiving working capital cash payments and generating cash flow from operations.
Risks and uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the markets it serves, including, but not limited to, global economic and financial market conditions, fluctuations in customer demand, acceptance of new products, development by its competitors of new technological innovations, dependence on key personnel, and protection of proprietary technology.
Segment information
The Company operates in one operating segment and, accordingly, no segment disclosures have been presented herein.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Except as described below, the accounting policies of the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Form 10-K/A, and the accounting policies followed by the Company for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies therein.
Treasury stock
The Company records the repurchase of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) at cost on the trade date of the transaction. These shares are considered treasury stock, which is a reduction to stockholders’ equity. Treasury stock is included in authorized and issued shares but excluded from outstanding shares.
Emerging growth company status
The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”). Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards, delaying the adoption of these accounting standards until they would apply to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period for complying with certain new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date that it (1) is no longer an emerging growth company or (2) affirmatively and irrevocably opts out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act.
Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09,Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740) (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2023-09.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07,Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which is intended to provide enhancements to segment disclosures, even for entities with only one reportable segment. In particular, the standard will require disclosures of significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit and loss. The standard will also require disclosure of all other segment items by reportable segment and a description of its composition. Finally, the standard will require disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and an explanation of how the chief operating decision maker uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on the presentation of its consolidated financial statements and footnotes.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-08,Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets(“ASU 2023-08”). ASU 2023-08 requires fair value measurement of certain crypto assets each reporting period with the changes in fair value reflected in net income. The amendments also require disclosures of the name, fair value, units held, and cost bases for each significant crypto asset held and annual reconciliations of crypto asset holdings. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company has opted to adopt this guidance early on January 1, 2024. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2023-08 had no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
3. Convertible Debt
Convertible Promissory Notes
From 2019 to 2023, the Company issued various convertible promissory notes to related and unrelated party investors, which were convertible into equity securities of Legacy ONMD upon a next equity financing transaction (the “Convertible Promissory Notes”). The Convertible Promissory Notes bore interest at a rate of either 4% or 6% annually from the date of issuance until the outstanding principal was paid or converted. In connection with the issuance of Convertible Promissory Notes in 2022 and 2023, the Company also issued warrants at an exercise price of $1.00 per share (the “Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants”). See additional information on the accounting for the warrants in Note 9.
The Convertible Promissory Notes were issued for general working capital purposes. The Company elected the fair value option (“FVO”) of accounting under ASC 825,Financial Instruments, for its Convertible Promissory Notes. Under the FVO election, the financial instrument is initially measured at its issue-date estimated fair value and subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis at each reporting period date. The estimated fair value adjustment is presented as a single line item within other (income) expenses, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption change in fair value of convertible debt.
In November 2023, all Convertible Promissory Notes were converted pursuant to their provision in connection with the Business Combination between Data Knights and Legacy ONMD and were no longer outstanding as of December 31, 2023. See the Form 10-K/A for all other details relating to the Convertible Promissory Notes issued prior to December 31, 2023.
PIPE Notes
On June 28, 2023, the Company and Data Knights entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Data Knights issued and sold to certain investors (the “Purchasers”) a new series of senior secured convertible notes (the “PIPE Notes”), which are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the Purchasers election at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $10.00 per share, or (ii) 92.5% of the lowest volume weighted average trading price for the ten (10) Trading Days immediately preceding the conversion date. The PIPE Notes mature on the first anniversary of the issuance date, or November 7, 2024.
The Company elected the FVO of accounting for its PIPE Notes. The estimated fair value adjustment is presented as a single line item within other (income) expenses, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations under the caption change in fair value of PIPE Notes. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair value of the PIPE Notes was $1.6 million, which is included in current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Shareholder Loans
In January 2024, the Company received gross proceeds of $1.0 million in connection with a shareholder loan with a related party investor which is convertible into 1,327,070 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.7535 per share. The balance of $1.0 million is included in loan, related party on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2024.
Helena Notes
On March 28, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement (the “Helena SPA”) with Helena Global Investment Opportunities 1 Ltd. (“Helena”), an affiliate of Helena Partners Inc., a Cayman-Islands based advisor and investor providing for up to $4.5 millionin funding through a private placement for the issuance of senior secured convertible notes and warrants across multiple tranches. The Helena SPA was subsequently terminated in June 2024 prior to the closing of any tranches (the “Helena Termination Agreement”). As such, the Helena SPA had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended March 31, 2024.
Pursuant to the Helena Termination Agreement, the Company issued to Helena a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share and agreed to reimburse Helena for certain reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with entry into the Helena SPA and Helena Termination Agreement and related documents.
4. Line of Credit
In March 2024, the Company obtained a line of credit of $1.0 million with BOC Bank to support short-term working capital needs, of which $0.4 million was drawn and remains outstanding as of March 31, 2024. The line of credit bears an interest rate of 5.0% and matures in 120 days. In July 2024, the maturity date was extended an additional 120 days, to November 2, 2024. The outstanding balance was repaid in full on July 30, 2024, and the line of credit was terminated at maturity in November 2024.
5. Canadian Emergency Business Loan Act (“CEBA”)
During December 2020, the Company applied for and received a $60 thousand CAD ($40 thousand USD) equivalent CEBA loan. The loan was provided by the Government of Canada to provide capital to organizations to see them through the challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic and better position them to return to providing services and creating employment. The loan is unsecured. The loan was interest free through December 31, 2023. If the loan was paid back by January 18, 2024, $15 thousand of the loan would have been forgiven. If the loan was not paid back by January 18, 2024, the full $40 thousand loan would have been converted to a loan repayable over three years with a 5% interest rate. The loan was paid back prior to January 18, 2024, and the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of $15 thousand, which is presented in other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024.
6. Stockholders’ Deficit
Common Stock
In connection with the Business Combination, Data Knights entered into an agreement with their underwriters (“EF Hutton”) whereby EF Hutton agreed to waive the related merger underwriting fees that were payable at closing ($4.0 million) in exchange for allocated payments as follows: (i) $0.5 million in cash at closing; (ii) a $0.5 million promissory note that matured on March 1, 2024; and (iii) a transfer of 277,778 shares of Common Stock, which were valued at the closing stock price of $10.89 per share on June 28, 2023. If, five trading days prior to the six-month anniversary, the aggregate VWAP value of the 277,778 shares of Common Stock was lower than the original share value of $3.0 million, the Company was obligated to compensate EF Hutton at a new share price equal to the difference in amount on such date. Due to the decrease in share value on the six-month anniversary, the Company was required to either pay to EF Hutton an additional $2.8 million or issue to EF Hutton an additional 3,175,000 shares of Common Stock. In January 2024, the Company issued the original 277,778 shares of Common Stock as consideration for $0.2 million owed by the Company. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was obligated to pay to EF Hutton the true-up of either $2.8 million or 3,175,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $0.88 per share, plus the $0.5 million promissory note. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the promissory note bears interest at a rate of 12.5% until such event of default is cured. The promissory note remained unpaid upon maturity on March 1, 2024, and the Company recorded interest expense of $25 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2024, because of the event of default. In August 2024, the Company made a promissory note payment of $0.1 million.
In February 2024, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with a former holder of Convertible Promissory Notes pursuant to which the Company repurchased 187,745 shares of Common Stock in exchange for cash of $0.5 million that is payable in installments. The Company made payments of $0.1 million in July and October 2024 and the remaining $0.3 million is expected to be repaid in early 2025. The $0.5 million represents the principal and accrued interest outstanding on the holder’s Convertible Promissory Note immediately prior to the Business Combination. The $0.5 million outstanding at March 31, 2024 is classified in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The 187,745 repurchased shares were reclassified to treasury stock as of March 31, 2024.
Preferred Stock
As of March 31, 2024, no shares of Preferred Stock were issued or outstanding. All shares of Legacy ONMD Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination. See the Form 10-K/A for all other details relating to the Series A-2 Preferred Stock and Series A-1 Preferred Stock issued prior to December 31, 2023.
7. Net Loss Per Share
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding used to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share is the same. In computing diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded the following potentially dilutive securities, as the effect would be anti-dilutive and reduce the net loss per share calculated for each period:

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense in the following categories on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented (in thousands):
| Three Months Ended March 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|

| Cost of revenue | $4 | $ | - |
| General and administrative | 127 | 116 | |
| Sales and marketing | 2 | - | |
| Research and development | 4 | 252 | |

9. Stock Warrants
The Company has the following warrants outstanding for the periods presented:
| As of | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 31, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |
| Liability Classified Warrants | ||
| Private Placement Warrants | 585,275 | 585,275 |
| PIPE Warrants | 95,744 | 95,744 |
| Subtotal | 681,019 | 681,019 |

| Subtotal | 11,500,000 | 11,500,000 |
| Grand Total | 12,181,019 | 12,181,019 |
Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants
As described in Note 3, the Company issued Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants in 2022 and 2023. The Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants are classified as equity in accordance with ASC subtopic 815-40,Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity(“ASC 815-40”). The Company determined that the fair value of the combined instrument (inclusive of the Convertible Promissory Notes) significantly exceeds the proceeds received; therefore, the Company concluded that the Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants are most accurately portrayed as an issuance cost related to the Convertible Promissory Notes. This resulted in an expense of $1.9 million being allocated to the Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants during the three months ended March 31, 2023, which is classified as stock warrant expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In connection with the closing of the Business Combination on November 7, 2023, all Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants were cashless exercised into shares of Legacy ONMD common stock and exchanged based on the appropriate conversion ratio for the Common Stock less an exercise price of $1.00. See the Form 10-K/A for all other details relating to the Convertible Promissory Notes Warrants issued prior to December 31, 2023.
PIPE Warrants
In conjunction with the issuance of the PIPE Notes described in Note 3, Data Knights also issued and sold to each of the Purchasers 95,745 warrants to purchase Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (the “PIPE Warrants”). The PIPE Warrants are classified as liabilities because they did not meet the criteria for equity treatment under ASC 815-40. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a change in fair value of PIPE Warrants of $(12) thousand.
Private Placement Warrants
In connection with the closing of the Business Combination on November 7, 2023, the Company assumed 585,275 private warrants to purchase Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (the “Private Placement Warrants”). The Private Placement Warrants are classified as liabilities because they did not meet the criteria for equity treatment under ASC 815-40. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a change in fair value of Private Placement Warrants of $5 thousand.

The following table presents the changes in the Private Warrants, PIPE Notes and PIPE Warrants measured at fair value for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (in thousands):
| Level 3 Rollforward: | Private Warrants | PIPE Notes | PIPE Warrants |
|---|---|---|---|
| Balance, December 31, 2023 | 9 | 1,637 | 14 |
| Changes in fair value | 5 | (20) | (12) |
| Balance, March 31, 2024 | $14 | $1,617 | $2 |
Private Placement Warrants and PIPE Warrants
The aggregate fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and PIPE Warrants was $17 thousand and $24 thousand as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company remeasured the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and PIPE Warrants at March 31, 2024 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
| As of March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| PIPE | Private | |
| Warrants | Warrants | |
| Stock price | $0.71 | $0.71 |
| Exercise price | $10.00 | $11.50 |
| Expected volatility | 59.9% | 59.9% |
| Weighted average risk-free rate | 4.2% | 4.3% |
| Expected dividend yield | - | - |
| Expected term (in years) | 4.6 | 4.6 |
PIPE Notes
The estimated fair values of the PIPE Notes are determined based on the aggregated, probability-weighted average of the outcomes of certain possible scenarios. The combined value of the probability-weighted average of those outcomes is then discounted back to each reporting period in which the convertible notes are outstanding, in each case, based on a risk-adjusted discount rate estimated based on the implied discount rate. The discount rate was held constant over the valuation periods given the fact pattern associated with the company and the stage of development.
The fair value of the PIPE Notes was $1.6 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Standby Equity Purchase Agreement
On June 17, 2024, the Company entered into a standby equity purchase agreement (the “SEPA”) with YA II PN, LTD, a Cayman Islands exempt limited partnership managed by Yorkville Advisors Global, LP (“Yorkville”). Pursuant to the SEPA, subject to certain conditions, the Company has the option to sell to Yorkville an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million of shares of Common Stock at the Company’s request from time to time following both the repayment of the Yorkville Promissory Note described below and the effectiveness of a resale registration statement covering the shares of Common Stock issued under the SEPA. The SEPA terminates on its 24-month anniversary.
Each advance may not exceed the greater of 500,000 shares and 100% of the average daily volume traded of the Common Stock during the five trading days immediately prior to requested advance. The shares would be purchased at a price equal to 97% of the Market Price as defined in the SEPA. The Company may establish a minimum acceptable price in each advance below which the Company will not be obligated to make any sales to Yorkville.
Any purchase under an advance would be subject to certain limitations, including that Yorkville will not purchase or acquire any shares that would result in it and its affiliates beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the then outstanding voting power or number of shares of Common Stock or any shares that when aggregated with shares issued under all other earlier advances, would exceed 4,767,616 shares of Common Stock (representing 19.99% of the aggregate number of then outstanding shares of Common Stock) (the “Exchange Cap”) unless shareholders approved issuances in excess of the Exchange Cap.
In connection with the execution of the SEPA, the Company paid a $25,000 structuring fee to Yorkville. The Company agreed to pay a commitment fee of $0.5 million to Yorkville, which was payable in shares. In September 2024, the Company issued 526,312 shares of Common Stock to Yorkville to settle the commitment fee.
Additionally, Yorkville agreed to advance to the Company, in exchange for a convertible promissory note (the “Yorkville Promissory Note”), a principal amount of $1.5 million, which was funded on June 18, 2024. The Yorkville Promissory Note is due on June 18, 2025, and interest accrues at an annual rate equal to 0%, subject to an increase to 18% upon an event of default as described in the Yorkville Promissory Note. The Yorkville Promissory Note will be convertible by Yorkville into shares of Common Stock at an aggregate purchase price based on a price per share equal to the lower of (a) $1.3408 per share (subject to downward reset upon the filing of the resale registration statement described below) or (b) 90% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock on Nasdaq during the seven trading days immediately prior to each conversion (the “Variable Price”), but which Variable Price may not be lower than the Floor Price then in effect. The “Floor Price” is $0.28 per share, subject to the Company’s option to reduce the Floor Price to any amount set forth in a written notice to Yorkville. While the Yorkville Promissory Note is outstanding, Yorkville may initiate an investor advance under the SEPA at the Yorkville Promissory Note conversion price, the proceeds of which would be used to repay the Yorkville Promissory Note.
The Yorkville Promissory Note may be accelerated by Yorkville upon specified events of default, and may become amortizable for cash if (i) the daily VWAP is less than the Floor Price for five trading days during a period of seven consecutive trading days, (ii) the Company has issued in excess of 95% of the shares of Common Stock available under the Exchange Cap or (iii) the Company is in material breach of its obligations under a registration rights agreement it entered into with Yorkville in connection with the SEPA or Yorkville becomes limited in its ability to freely resell shares subject to an advance as further described in the Yorkville Promissory Note, subject to de-amortization after certain cures.
Yorkville Letter
On October 8, 2024, Yorkville sent the Company a letter notifying the Company that it had breached a registration rights agreement with Yorkville by failing to file a Registration Statement on Form S-1 on the timeline set forth in the registration rights agreement (the “Yorkville Letter”). The Yorkville Letter asserted that this breach was an event of default and an amortization event under the prepaid advance in connection with the SEPA. The Yorkville Letter also asserted that the Company’s failure to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 was an event of default under the Yorkville Promissory Note. The Company subsequently engaged in discussions with Yorkville regarding the Yorkville Letter, which discussions are ongoing.
Pursuant to the Yorkville Promissory Note, upon the occurrence of an amortization event, the Company is required to pay all principal and accrued interest on the Yorkville Promissory Note, plus a 10% payment premium on the principal amount, in equal installments over 3 calendar months or until the amortization event is cured, whichever is earlier. In addition, upon the occurrence of an event of default, the interest rate on the Yorkville Promissory Note increases to 18% retroactive to the date of the event of default.
