General
The following information should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto and in conjunction with Managements' Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
This report includes forward-looking statements, the realization of which may be
affected by certain important factors discussed previously above under Item 1A,
"Risk Factors."
Overview
The Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Pharmacy Value Management
Solutions, Inc. administers and operates a medically driven sleep apnea program
branded SleepMaster Solutions™ ("SMS"). Management believes that SMS is the
largest provider of these combined services in the nation. We are in all 50
states and provide a turnkey solution designed to effectively keep drivers on
the road with no down time, compliant with DOT regulations, improve their
health, and significantly decrease legal liability risk for the employer. We are
vertically integrated, and we provide a "Program" of services that addresses all
the needs of a corporate transportation system, union or other driver-related
organizations. We believe we are the only company capable of providing the full
range of needed services in a timely manner.
Our services start with the identification of the target population and the
potential risk the client currently has. We can do this through our SMS Program,
which includes the ability to screen every driver to identify if signs and
symptoms of sleep apnea are present. We can then take this data and provide the
employer with a list of those drivers that should be tested and the statistical
likelihood of the percentage of those drivers who will test positive for
obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Together with the employer/union, SMS provides a
realistic time frame, actual total cost, and process for testing all drivers who
need to be tested. For those drivers testing positive for OSA, we then provide
the appropriate treatment such that the driver will meet the DOT requirements
and remain on the road. We monitor 365 days per year driver's usage of the
treatment device according to DOT standards and we report that usage to all
stakeholders as required/permitted. We utilize mathematical algorithms to
determine if the driver is predicatively meeting the annual DOT requirements for
usage. Using those predictive algorithms, we reach out to those drivers and
provide case management, encouragement designed to solve problems such that the
driver increases usage, if necessary, and remains compliant.
PVMS constructed its model based upon the foregoing principles. The SMS Program
includes all processes attended in sleep apnea screening, testing, treatment,
monitoring and overall management of commercial drivers' as well as their
employers' needs. We have successfully established relationships with national
health care clinic providers, all with certified medical examiner ("CME")
status. These clinics total almost 1,000 throughout the U.S. We also have both
formal and informal relationships with employers; municipalities; a significant
veteran's group; union and non-union driving organizations; suppliers of home
sleep testing equipment and a variety of OSA treatment devices; and, a national
network of telemedicine sleep specialists covering all 50 states. We have an
internal medical team for governance and protocol purposes and a customer
service department that interfaces directly with our drivers. We also have a
marketing team that regularly interfaces with our existing accounts and markets
our services to potential new accounts. Our services are performed utilizing a
best medical practices model and an efficient, cost-effective delivery system.
We obtain the required equipment on a per order basis from a durable medical
equipment distributor.

Revenue is recognized when billed, which is approximately when the testing
service is performed, or CPAP machine is shipped.
The first quarter of 2020 saw the beginnings of a dramatic shift in the economic
business structure of the U.S., ultimately resulting in substantial nationwide
business closures and employee layoffs/furloughs. Unemployment went from a low
of 3.6% to over 14% in April 2020 - an almost overnight shift. All of this was a
result of the rapid spread of COVID-19. Caught up in the business closures
during a national "stay at home" directive, were a significant number of
Concentra clinics. During this same period, the federal government, specifically
the Department of Transportation ("DOT"), suspended the need for interstate
commercial drivers to report for previously mandated DOT physical exams and
lifted the commercial drivers' driving time restrictions. While the Company is
substantially dependent upon the commercial drivers' need for these physical
exams, their attendance at various Concentra clinics for these exams and the
referral of the drivers by these clinics to the Company when sleep apnea is
suspected, these closures and the suspension of the DOT physical exams did not
adversely impact on the Company as much as might have been anticipated. The
company was well positioned to withstand these events and had established itself
securely enough with both the still open Concentra clinics and new business
accounts to maintain its referral momentum, albeit not at the same pace.
The Company's sales in January 2020 were up 74% compared to its sales in January
2019. The Company's sales in February 2020 increased 101% over its sales in
February 2019. The Company's overall sales during the first quarter of 2020
increased over 88%. This increase resulted largely from the Company's senior
management's positioning with senior management of Concentra, its sales reps'
strategic restarting of their regional contacts with Concentra clinic managers
and the hiring of additional customer service representatives, adding depth to
an already solid rep force. The Company's growth over 2019 has continued into
the second quarter of 2020 with current sales being up an additional 7% over
last year's comparable period. It is also notable that during the first quarter
of 2020, approximately 7% of the Company's increased sales over the comparable
period of 2019 were occasioned by relationships established by the Company at
the end of 2019 with new third-party payers such as The Pacific Gas & Electric
Company (PG&E); the United States Postal Service in Indianapolis, Indiana; a
West Coast-based Workers' Compensation organization with substantial national
accounts; and the Transit Authority in Baltimore, Maryland. We expect our growth
pattern to continue in 2020 as the Company spends more time encouraging these
new accounts to utilize the Company's services, exclusively, and as
relationships established by the Company with labor in the latter part of 2019
and into 2020 mature and strengthen.
Additionally, the Company would note that while its staff was offered the choice
of working from home or at the Company's offices, 100% of the Company's
employees elected to work from the Company's offices. Thus, notwithstanding the
fact that many of the Company's accounts were not reachable, either personally
or by phone, during the first quarter of 2020, the Company's staff diligently
pursued those contacts and new accounts in a coordinated effort to maintain and
increase the Company's business.

While a number of labor-related programs were put on hold during the first
quarter of 2020, the Company elected to engage in a modified launch of its
program with CoreChoice. In March of 2020, the Company prepared for this launch
to a limited number of CoreChoice facilities (350 clinics). This launch occurred
in late April 2020, and while revenues have not yet commenced from these
clinics, management fully expects same to occur within the next 30 - 45 days as
the CoreChoice clinics reopen.
In addition, the Company hired two senior labor consultants whose directive is
to enhance our sales revenue from the Western Teamsters Welfare Trust Fund, a
long-standing Company account, and increase the Company's revenue through new
accounts from the labor/union market.
Additionally, the Company accelerated the development of its CPAP sanitizing
device and daily sanitizing wipes product line (see our announcement of April
13, 2020). In April 2020, we commenced taking orders for this product line and
first deliveries to our customers are expected to occur by the end of May. The
Company's sales reps market our sanitizer and sanitizing wipes products in
tandem with sales of the Company's CPAP device.
The Company believes that its sales activities will shortly place the Company in
a position to move forward with its expressed intent to relist the Company on
NASDAQ. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company commenced activities aimed at
reducing Company debt, much of which existed with the Company for decades. In
the second quarter of 2020, the Company successfully negotiated with debt
holders holding debt against the Company of approximately $2.9 million to
convert that debt into Common Stock of the Company (equity). Additionally, the
Company has received commitments to convert another approximately $7 million of
debt into equity of the Company. The Company intends to pursue these efforts
with the goal of ultimately converting much, if not all, of the Company's
long-standing debt (as opposed to continuing operation expenses) into equity in
the Company, bringing it one step closer to its "up-listing" goal.
Sources of Revenue
A quantitative summary of our revenues by source category for the three month
periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:
2020 2019 Change

Results of Operations
OSA services increased to $127,548 in 2020 from $67,923 in 2019. The increase
was primarily the result of the timing of the Concentra launch. Last year, on
May 14, 2019, we reached an agreement with Concentra whereby Concentra engaged
the Company, and the Company accepted the engagement, to serve as Concentra's
preferred national sleep apnea services provider. The launch by Concentra of
this program included notifying all of the Concentra clinics of same. The launch
was delayed but was initiated during the fourth quarter of 2019.
Cost of revenues increased to $64,909 in 2020 from $41,660 in 2019 due to an
increase in sales.

Financial Condition
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, we funded our operations
from revenues and $182,000 in private borrowings. We will continue to fund our
operations from these sources until we are able to produce operating revenue
sufficient to cover our cost structure. In the event we are not able to secure
such funding, our operations will be adversely affected.
Short Term: We funded our operations with revenues from sales and private
borrowings.
Subsequent Events
Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we issued a convertible promissory note in the
principal amount of $109,180. The term of the note is 12 months and the interest
rate is 10% per annum.
On April 27, 2020, we filed a report on Form 8-K regarding our entry into a
material definitive agreement and the creation of a direct financial obligation
which report is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
Agreements
On May 13, 2020, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the "Agreement") with
certain holders of our 10% Senior Debt Due April 15, 2012 (collectively, the
"Noteholders"). The Agreement provides that the Noteholders with Notes, totaling
$2,916,869 of principal and accrued but unpaid interest, exchange their Notes
for 14,584,350 shares of the Company's Common Stock and 5,121,105 Common Stock
purchase warrants. The exchange rate was $0.20 per share, which was the market
price of the Common Stock as of April 21, 2020. The warrants are for a term of
five years and the exercise price is $0.25 per share. The Agreement further
provides that the Noteholders lock-up their acquired shares until the earlier of
(a) one year from the date of the Agreement, or (b) the average daily trading
volume of the Company's Common Stock is no less than 500,000 shares for 30
consecutive trading days (collectively, the "Lock-up Period"). Following the
Lock-up Period and for a period of 18 months from the date of the Agreement, if
the Noteholders intend to sell more than 200,000 shares on any single trading
day, the Noteholders shall give the Company prior notice of the amount of shares
they intend to sell and the Company shall have a right to purchase all, but not
less than all, of the offered shares at the closing bid price of the Common
Stock on the date of the notice. The Agreement is in further implementation of
the Company's strategy to position the Company for the relisting of its
securities on a national stock exchange such as the New York Exchange, the
American Exchange or NASDAQ.
