Previous wording
The increase in total revenues of $6,340,047 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year consisted primarily of a $1,420,944 increase in plasma revenue, a $4,645,716 increase in pharma revenue, and a $273,387 increase in other revenue. The increase in plasma revenue was primarily due to the addition of 117 net plasma centers during the past 12 months offset by a decline in plasma donations and dollars loaded to cards as plasma inventory levels have normalized, which has reduced our average monthly revenue per center as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in pharma revenue was primarily due to the financial benefit of 39 net pharma patient affordability programs launched during the past 12 months, and a corresponding increase in monthly management fees, setup fees, claim processing fees, and other billable services such as dynamic business rules and call center support. The number of claims processed increased over 60% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in other revenue was primarily due to the growth and usage in the number of cardholders of our payroll, retail, and corporate incentive programs.

The increase in pharma revenue was primarily due to the financial benefit of 45 net pharma patient affordability programs launched during the prior twelve-month period, and a corresponding increase in monthly management fees, setup fees, claim processing fees and other billable services such as dynamic business rules and call center support. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 the number of claims processed increased approximately 49% compared to the same period in the prior year.

Conversion Rates on Gross Dollar Volume Loaded on Cards: Represents revenues, gross profit or net income (loss) conversion rates of gross dollar volume loaded on cards which are calculated by taking our total revenues, gross profit or net income (loss), respectively, as a numerator and dividing by the gross dollar volume loaded on cards as a denominator. As we derive a number of our financial results from cardholder fees, we utilize these metrics as an indication of the amount of money that is added to cards and will eventually be converted to revenues, gross profit and net income (loss).

Management also reviews key performance indicators, such as revenues, gross profit, operational expenses as a percentage of revenues, and cardholder participation. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or “adjusted”) measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented and provide a financial tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment and investment in new card programs. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators:

Operating activities provided $4,360,171 of cash as of September 30, 2025, a decrease of $4,273,751 compared to same period in the prior year. This change in cash flow compared to the change in cash flow in the prior period is primarily due to net decreases in operating assets and liabilities. The changes in accounts receivable, accounts payable, and customer card funding, a net decrease of $12,667,611, are primarily related to the growth in our pharma patient affordability business and timing of pass-through payments as we are invoiced by third-party service providers at the end of the period and are due monies from our pharma patient affordability customers to cover these third-party payables. The decrease in cash flows from operating activities was offset by an increase in net income, reduced prepaid expenses, collection of tax credits and non-cash adjustments for depreciation and amortization, deferred income tax, stock-based compensation, and lease expense.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, $6,436,339 of cash was used for investing activities primarily attributable to an increase in software licenses and capitalization of internally developed software as we continue to invest in our technology platform. The remaining amount of $2,000,000 was used for the Gamma acquisition that closed on March 19, 2025 (see “Note 2- ACQUISITION” in the notes to the accompanying consolidated financial statements).

Unrestricted cash was $7,529,047 as of September 30, 2025, a decrease of $2,764,160 compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease resulted primarily in payment timing on passthrough claim reimbursement receivables and related payables associated with our patient affordability business in the amount of $9,364,030, offset from the improvement in our operating results. We believe that our available cash on hand, excluding restricted cash, at September 30, 2025 of $7,529,047, along with our forecast for revenues and cash flows for the remainder of 2025 and through the third quarter of 2027, will be sufficient to sustain our operations for the next twenty-four months. In light of the recent bank failures, we continue to monitor the health and soundness of our bank relationships through publicly available information. Based on recent SEC filings, we have not discovered any issues that would cause us to alter our bank relationships.

We believe this cash position, together with our forecast for revenues and cash flows for the remainder of 2026 and through the first quarter of 2028, will be sufficient to sustain our operations for the next twenty-four months. In light of the recent bank failures, we continue to monitor the health and soundness of our bank relationships through publicly available information.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
The increase in total revenues of $16,494,876 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in the prior year consisted primarily of a $66,548 decrease in plasma revenue, a $15,954,730 increase in pharma revenue, and a $606,694 increase in other revenue. The decrease in plasma revenue was primarily due to a decline in plasma donations and dollars loaded to cards as plasma inventory levels have normalized, which has reduced our average monthly revenue per center as compared to the same period in the prior year. This decline was offset by the addition of 117 net plasma centers during the past 12 months. The increase in pharma revenue was primarily due to the financial benefit of 39 net pharma patient affordability programs launched during the past 12 months, and a corresponding increase in monthly management fees, setup fees, claim processing fees, and other billable services such as dynamic business rules and call center support. For the nine months ending September 30, 2025 the number of claims processed increased over 90% compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in other revenue was primarily due to the growth and usage in the number of cardholders of our payroll, retail, and corporate incentive programs.

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased $12,598,054 compared to the same period in the prior year resulting primarily from the launch of an additional 39 net pharma patient affordability programs during the past 12 months, and a corresponding increase in setup fees, monthly management fees, claim processing fees, and other billable fees. Gross profit also benefited from the addition of 117 net plasma centers during the past 12 months, and corresponding revenue and beneficial impact of a variable cost structure, as many of the plasma transaction costs are variable in nature and are provided by third parties who charge us based on the number of active cards outstanding and transactions that occurred during the period. The increase in gross profit was offset by increased costs from network fees, third-party service providers, sales commission expense and customer service costs mentioned above, primarily driven by the overall growth in our business. The increase in gross margin resulted primarily from a greater contribution of total revenue from our pharma patient affordability business which has higher gross profit margins than our other businesses.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased $1,819,872 compared to the same period in the prior year.
