Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any control system, including the potential for human error and the possible circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures. No matter how well designed and operated, an effective control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the system are adequately met. Accordingly, the management of the Company, including its Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the control system can prevent or detect all error or fraud. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2025, due to the material weaknesses described below.
Considering the material weaknesses described below, management performed additional analysis and other procedures to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Material Weakness
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In connection with the preparation of our combined/consolidated financial statements for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025, together with facts learned during the course of the Audit Committee’s independent investigation, our management identified control deficiencies that, individually or in the aggregate, constitute a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses identified by management were:
We did not design and maintain an effective control environment commensurate with the financial reporting requirements of a public company. Specifically, we did not design and maintain sufficient processes to identify, assess, and communicate relevant risks to appropriate levels of the organization, including potential compliance issues received through the hotline process.
In addition, we did not design and maintain adequate controls within the revenue process to appropriately recognize revenue for new services in accordance with ASC 606.
These material weaknesses led to errors in our previously issued interim condensed combined/consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 (the “Prior
Financial Statements”), which will be included in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, at Note 22 to our combined/consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Remediation Plan
Our management is committed to maintaining a strong internal control environment. In response to the identified material weaknesses above, management with the oversight of the Audit Committee, is taking comprehensive actions to remediate the above material weaknesses. Specifically, we have made, and are continuing to advance, the following enhancements to our internal control over financial reporting:
We have retained an Interim Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) who has extensive healthcare regulatory experience and experience advising public companies, and who reports directly to our CEO accompanied by regular reporting and access to the Audit Committee. We we are in the process of hiring an experienced candidate, with both public company and post-acute healthcare experience, to serve as the permanent CCO.
We also are in the process of recruiting additional compliance, legal and internal audit personnel to enhance our risk assessment capabilities.
We have formed a Compliance Committee of senior management, chaired by the Interim CCO, with a detailed charter and oversight from the Audit Committee and Board of Directors.
We have developed and launched an enhanced compliance training program throughout the organization, and have upgraded our compliance hotline and process for investigating complaints, including elevating matters that may have a financial impact to the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and Board of Directors.
We are in the process of enhancing the controls related to revenue recognition, in which the Company’s compliance team will oversee a thorough review and approval process for new billing codes prior to billing. Once approved for use by the compliance team, these services will be reviewed in accordance with ASC 606, by the accounting function, prior to revenue recognition.
We enhanced our Disclosure Committee process by adding sub-certifications and key personnel to specifically address the evaluation and communication of compliance and other business activities as they inform financial reporting. In addition, we are including a broader group of internal stakeholders to certain other meetings to ensure timely information is being shared which impacts financial reporting.
The material weaknesses will not be remediated until the necessary internal controls have been designed, implemented, tested and determined to be operating effectively. In addition, we may need to take additional measures to address the material weaknesses or modify the planned remediation steps, and we cannot be certain that the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls will be sufficient to address the issues identified, to ensure that our internal controls are effective or to ensure that the identified material weaknesses will not result in a material misstatement of our combined/consolidated financial statements. Moreover, we cannot provide assurance that we will not identify additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. Until we remediate the material weaknesses, our ability to record, process and report financial information accurately, could be adversely affected.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the ongoing remediation efforts described above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
