2017 Annual ReportPioneering innovative cancer detection and therapy solutions Dear Shareholder,

2017 was a year in which we expanded our core 
products and broadened our reach throughout the 
marketplace. We have continued to work passionately to 
provide precise, powerful healthcare solutions expertly 
engineered to optimize operational efficiency, clinician 
confidence, and patient outcomes. Our commitment 
to research and innovation has never been stronger. 
Our accomplishments are proving the value of our past 
investments and creating a strong foundation for future 
revenue growth.

At the Forefront of a Cancer Detection Revolution

With artificial intelligence (AI) fundamentally changing 
the healthcare landscape, we continued to expand our 
breast health solutions by providing innovative tools to 
radiologists. iCAD is currently the only company that 
leverages the power of artificial intelligence and deep 
learning technology to enhance 3D mammography, 
or digital breast tomosynthesis, and streamline the 
workflow for radiologists in the U.S.  This has become 
increasingly important as radiologists are challenged to 
keep pace with the growing amount of data produced 
by digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). 

In 2017, we launched PowerLook® Tomo Detection 
expanding our breast health portfolio in the U.S. with 
PMA approval in March 2017 after obtaining CE mark 
in April 2016.  This is the first innovative technology 
solution of its kind in the breast health market and is 
increasingly being adopted throughout the U.S. and 
Europe by radiologists to improve breast tomosynthesis 
reading workflow. With our powerful software connected 
to over 6,000 mammography systems worldwide, we 
recognize that our continued product innovations will 
expand our market.  Our existing installed base illustrates 
the impact that our landmark workflow solution is having 
as a transformative tool for radiologists to improve breast 
cancer detection.  In addition, planned expansion of 
the platform will introduce compatibility with other 
mammography system providers worldwide.  

PowerLook Tomo Detection enables the creation of 
an enhanced, highly sensitive, computer generated or 
synthetic 2D image of the breast with approximately 
40% more visible malignant soft tissue densities than 
a standard synthetic 2D image. Our reader study 
demonstrated that radiologists can read approximately 
30% faster on average without impacting clinical 
performance when reading with PowerLook Tomo 
Detection compared to reading without it. 

As we continue our momentum to maximize the 
potential of our addressable market and our commitment 

to invest in the breast health market through product 
development and research, we were pleased to 
introduce PowerLook Tomo Detection 2.0 with support 
of multiple system providers.  The product received CE 
mark in March of 2018.  The PowerLook Tomo Detection 
2.0 solution introduces an unprecedented performing 
algorithm that is changing the reading paradigm for 3D 
mammography.  A reader study showed that the new 2.0 
product can simultaneously improve radiologists’ cancer 
detection rates and reduce false positive or recalls rates 
while also reducing reading time by more than 50%.    

PowerLook Tomo Detection 2.0 provides iCAD with the 
potential to significantly expand our addressable market 
through compatibility and partnership with the leading 
3D mammography system providers such as Hologic, GE 
Healthcare and Siemens.  The 2.0 product is approved 
for sale in Europe and Canada and currently pending 
approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Driving Worldwide Commercialization of 
Innovative Cancer Treatments 

2017 also marked great strides in building our 
cancer therapy business, as we establish a strong 
global footprint with our Xoft® Axxent® Electronic 
Brachytherapy (eBx®) System®. eBx, which is used for the 
treatment of early-stage breast cancer, gynecological 
cancers and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), 
experienced wider adoption in Europe, Asia, Australia, 
as well as the United States. Already cleared by the U.S. 
Food and Drug Administration, CE marked in Europe, 
and licensed in a growing number of countries, in 
2017, we secured approval of our balloon applicators 
by the China Food & Drug Administration (CFDA) for 
the treatment of breast cancer. With this approval, the 
complete suite of Xoft System products is now available 
to clinicians and patients in China, significantly increasing 
our worldwide market opportunity. We remain intently 
focused on continuing to expand global access to our 
innovative, clinically-proven therapies in additional, key 
international markets such as India, Latin America and the 
Middle East.

understanding about the power our technology has 
to change the lives of patients, and the clinicians who 
detect and treat cancer. Our most impactful solution 
will be the 3D PowerLook Tomo Detection System, 
which highlights our unique expertise with the practical 
application of AI and deep learning to assist radiologists 
and other clinicians in an increasing complex medical 
imaging environment.

Commitment to Future Success 

Our commitment to research, innovation and results will 
serve as a strong foundation enabling us to optimize 
our opportunities in cancer detection and therapy. Core 
to this foundation is the support of our shareholders, 
employees, customers and industry partners. As we 
look ahead , our focus on our primary tenets will not 
waiver, and we will build on those to extend our market 
lead, increase adoption of our detection and treatment 
solutions, and most importantly, leverage advanced 
technologies to improve the lives of individuals affected 
by cancer.

Sincerely,

Ken Ferry

Chief Executive Officer

As diagnoses of NMSC increase worldwide, our 
painless, non-invasive alternative to Mohs surgery 
continues to present us with a strong market opportunity. 
In January 2018, we made a strategic shift in our 
commercial strategy to no longer offer professional 
services to practices providing skin eBx under a 
subscription model, and instead continue to market our 
systems into the skin market as a capital sale. Given the 
considerable size of the market opportunity for capital 
sales in cancer centers alone, we believe this transition 
will better position us to achieve profitable growth in 
this important market for iCAD in the future. Numerous 
peer-reviewed clinical studies have underscored the 
effectiveness of skin eBx and continue to support growth 
in new sites and procedure volume. Specifically, in 2017, 
we announced that results of a matched-pair cohort 
study of NMSC patients treated with skin eBx or Mohs 
surgery showed that rates of recurrence of cancer were 
virtually identical. These breakthrough data confirm that 
treatment with eBx can help patients achieve similar low 
rates of recurrence with excellent cosmetic outcomes 
compared to Mohs surgery. In addition to being 
published in a peer-reviewed medical journal, the study 
earned the “Best of ASTRO” distinction reserved for the 
most relevant and highly influential research presented at 
this important industry meeting. 

Demand for our intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) 
solution for breast cancer treatment continues to increase 
on a global scale. With more than 90 sites treating in 
a rising number of diverse, international markets, in 
2017, we delivered meaningful growth in adoption 
and utilization. To support this growth, we continue to 
make strategic investments in clinical trials validating the 
unique benefits of this breakthrough solution for patients 
and providers alike. In 2017, we reached enrollment for 
our breast IORT clinical study, which is one of the largest 
breast IORT trials to date. In addition, a landmark, lifetime 
cost-effectiveness analysis published in a peer-reviewed 
medical journal highlighted significant economic 
and health benefits of IORT compared to traditional 
treatment, noting the potential for $630 million in annual 
cost savings for the U.S. healthcare system. Results from 
these studies, in addition to a growing, international 
body of clinical evidence, consistently demonstrate 
IORT to be a safe and effective treatment option offering 
improved quality of life for appropriately selected 
patients. 

We also reached key clinical milestones in our 
gynecological eBx business in 2017 with the first-ever 
European analysis of the Xoft System for endometrial 
and cervical cancer treatment presented by Spanish 
researchers at a key, global meeting. The promising 
study results demonstrated encouraging outcomes in

Company Overview and Strategy

iCAD continues to evolve from a business focused on image analysis for the early detection of cancers to a broader 
player in the oncology market. As a global medical technology leader, the Company’s strategy is to provide customers 
with a broad portfolio of innovative oncology solutions that address the two primary stages of the cancer care, detection 
and treatment. The Company believes that early detection, together with earlier targeted intervention, provides patients 
and healthcare providers with the best tools available to achieve better clinical outcomes resulting in market demand 
that will drive adoption of iCAD’s solutions.

Cancer Detection:

Approximately 40 million mammograms were performed in the U.S. in 2017. Although mammography is the most 
effective method for early detection of breast cancer, studies have shown that an estimated 20% or more of all breast 
cancers go undetected in the screening stage. More than half of the cancers missed are due to observational errors. 
Computer aided detection (“CAD”), when used in conjunction with mammography, has been proven to help reduce 
the risk of these observational errors by as much as 20%. Earlier cancer detection typically leads to more effective, 
less invasive, and less costly treatment options which ultimately should translate into improved patient survival rates.

1

The  Company  intends  to  address  the  detection  and  diagnosis  stages  of  the  cancer  care  cycle  through  continued 
extension  of  its  image  analysis  and  clinical  decision  support  solutions  for  mammography,  breast  tomosynthesis, 
and  CT  imaging.  iCAD  believes  that  advances  in  digital  imaging  techniques  should  bolster  its  efforts  to  develop 
additional commercially viable CAD and breast density assessment advanced image analysis and workflow solutions. 
CAD and density assessment for breast tomosynthesis is a growth area which the Company believes will provide 
additional benefits for early breast cancer detection. The Company believes that CAD and breast density assessment 
for  tomosynthesis  has  the  potential  to  help  radiologists  better  detect  cancer  and  manage  the  workflow  efficiency 
issues created by large 3D datasets. The Company completed development of a tomosynthesis CAD and workflow 
tool in 2015 and launched the product in the European market in April 2016, HealthCanada in June 2016 and in the 
United States after FDA clearance in April 2017. The Company also developed a breast density assessment product 
for tomosynthesis that assesses breast density using 2D synthetic images that are generated from 3D tomosynthesis 
datasets. The Company’s tomosynthesis breast density solution is pending FDA clearance and is expected in 2018.

The Company believes that the CAD and breast density assessment solutions for breast tomosynthesis may represent 
a  significant  growth  opportunity  over  the  next  three  to  five  years.  With  over  5,600  installation  opportunities  for 
tomosynthesis systems in the U.S., there is a significant future opportunity for CAD and density assessment solutions 
for tomosynthesis. The Company anticipates that CAD for tomosynthesis will become the standard of care in the near 
future, similar to what CAD for 2D mammography is today in the U.S.

In  the  U.S.,  approximately  8,726  facilities  (with  approximately  18,451  accredited  full  field  digital  mammography 
(“FFDM”) and tomosynthesis mammography systems) were Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) certified 
to provide mammography screening in 2017. The majority of these centers are using 2D digital mammography FFDM 
systems and we believe approximately 46% of the market has converted to 3D mammography or tomosynthesis. 

With several European countries currently exploring the advantages of radiologists reading digital mammograms with 
CAD, the Company believes there is growth opportunity for mammography CAD in the international markets both 
from the analog to digital conversion and as more countries accept the use of radiologists using CAD, rather than 
two radiologists having to read each case. Based on the report published by the European Commission in April 2012, 
breast cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer and it is also responsible for the most cancer-related deaths 
among women in the European Union (“EU”). The number of expected breast cancer cases based on the 2012 report 
was expected to continue to rise as the incidence of cancer increases steeply with age and life expectancy. On average 
one out of every 10 women in the EU is expected to develop breast cancer at some point in her life. As a result, most 
countries in Western Europe have or are planning to implement mammography screening programs resulting in an 
expected increase in the number of mammograms performed in the coming years. 

Although sales of CAD with 2D mammography in Europe have been historically lower than in the U.S., the Company 
believes sales of its CAD for tomosynthesis will be adopted with a higher attachment rate in Europe than previously 
due to workflow improvements and reading time reduction that we believe the solution offers.

Cancer Therapy:

Radiation  therapy  is  the  medical  use  of  ionizing  radiation,  generally  as  part  of  cancer  treatment  to  control  or  kill 
malignant cells. Radiation therapy may be curative in a number of types of cancer if the cancer cells are localized 
to one area of the body. It may also be used as part of curative therapy to prevent tumor recurrence after surgery to 
remove a primary malignant tumor (for example, early stages of breast cancer). The clinical goal in radiation oncology 
is to deliver the highest radiation dose possible directly to the tumor to kill the cancer cells while minimizing radiation 
exposure to healthy tissue surrounding the tumor in order to limit complications and side effects. Global incidence 
rates  of  new  cancer  cases  are  rising,  primarily  due  to  aging  populations  and  changing  lifestyle  habits.  However, 
survival rates are also improving as a result of earlier detection and enhanced treatment options.

The three main types of radiation therapy are external beam radiation therapy (“EBRT”), brachytherapy or sealed 
source radiation therapy, and systemic radioisotope therapy or unsealed source radiotherapy. One of the differences 
relates  to  the  position  of  the  radiation  source;  external  is  outside  the  body,  brachytherapy  uses  sealed  radioactive 
sources placed precisely in the treatment area, and systemic radioisotopes are given by infusion or oral ingestion. 
Brachytherapy uses temporary or permanent placement of radioactive sources. Conventional EBRT typically involves 
multiple treatments of a tumor in up to 50 radiation sessions (fractions). In the case of brachytherapy, radiation of 
healthy tissues further away from the sources is reduced. In addition, if the patient moves or if there is any tumor 
movement  within  the  body  during  treatment,  the  radiation  source(s)  retain  their  correct  position  in  relation  to  the 
tumor. These aspects of brachytherapy offer advantages over EBRT in that brachytherapy is able to direct high doses 
of radiation to the size and shape of the cancerous area while sparing healthy tissue and organs.

2

Brachytherapy is commonly used as an effective treatment for endometrial, cervical, prostate, breast, and skin cancer, 
and can also be used to treat tumors in many other body sites. Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx) is a type of radiotherapy 
that utilizes a miniaturized high dose rate X-ray source to apply radiation directly to the cancerous site. The Xoft® 
Axxent®  Electronic  Brachytherapy  (eBx®)  System®  (“Xoft  System”)  is  a  proprietary  electronic  brachytherapy 
platform designed to deliver isotope-free (non-radioactive) radiation treatment in virtually any clinical setting without 
the limitations of radionuclides.

The process for delivering radiation therapy typically includes a radiation oncologist, a medical physicist responsible 
for planning the treatment and performing appropriate quality assurance procedures and, in certain instances, other 
specialty physicians depending upon the type of cancer e.g. a breast surgeon for breast cancer, a dermatologist for skin 
cancer, a gynecologist for endometrial or cervical cancer.

The  Company’s  Xoft  System  is  a  disruptive  radiation  oncology  treatment  solution  with  significant  cost,  mobility, 
and treatment time advantages over its competitors or other standards of care. While the primary applications of this 
system currently are localized breast cancer treatment using a ten to fifteen-minute breast Intraoperative Radiation 
Therapy (“IORT”) protocol and the treatment of non-melanoma skin cancers (“NMSC”), the Xoft System platform 
can also be used to treat a wide and growing array of additional cancers, including gynecological and other non-breast 
IORT clinical indications.

There are approximately 300,000 new cases of breast cancer in the United States each year. The Company believes 
that the Xoft System is uniquely well positioned to offer a differentiated treatment alternative for the approximately 
111,000 of these 300,000 annual new cases of early stage breast cancer in the U.S. where patients fit the clinical criteria 
to make this treatment a viable alternative to conventional radiation treatments. The Xoft System does not require a 
shielded environment and is relatively small in size, which means that it can easily be transported for use in virtually 
any clinical setting (including the operating room where IORT is delivered) under radiation oncology supervision. The 
Xoft System may also be used for Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (“APBI”), which can be delivered twice daily 
for five days. There is a growing body of clinical evidence in support of breast IORT and Category I Current Procedural 
Terminology (“CPT”) codes have been in place for several years, providing reimbursement for the hospital, radiation 
oncologist, and surgeon for performing the IORT treatment.

Basal  and  Squamous  Cell  Carcinoma  are  two  of  the  most  prevalent  types  of  NMSC  in  the  U.S.,  with  more  than 
5.4  million  cases  being  diagnosed  annually.  The  Xoft  System  enables  radiation  oncologists  and  dermatologists 
to  collaborate  in  offering  their  patients  a  non-surgical  treatment  option  that  is  particularly  appropriate  for  certain 
challenging lesion locations on the ear, face, scalp, neck and extremities. Xoft also offers the Axxent Hub web-based 
software platform that enables centers to improve patient safety, conduct treatment planning, enhance and monitor 
workflow, and improve communication between clinical specialties.

The  Company  views  additional  Xoft  System  platform  indications  as  important  opportunities  in  both  the  U.S.  and 
international markets. The Xoft System is also marketed for gynecological cancers including endometrial and cervical 
cancer.  In  2013  the  Company  received  FDA  clearance  for  an  application  for  the  treatment  of  cervical  cancer  and 
launched a new applicator to treat cervical cancer in 2015. Vaginal cancer is the fourth most common cancer affecting 
women worldwide and cervical cancer incidence rates outside of the U.S. are very high due to inadequate penetration 
of screening modalities. The Company believes an additional strategic growth opportunity exists in the application 
of the Xoft System for the treatment of other cancers beyond NMSC and breast cancer in the IORT setting including 
integration with minimally invasive surgical techniques and systems.

On  January  4,  2018,  the  Company  adopted  a  plan  to  discontinue  offering  radiation  therapy  professional  services 
to  practices  that  provide  the  Company’s  electronic  brachytherapy  solution  for  the  treatment  of  NMSC  under  the 
subscription service model within the Therapy Segment. As a result, the Company will no longer offer the subscription 
service model to customers. The Company will continue to offer its capital sales model for both skin cancer treatment 
and IORT, which provides a brachytherapy system and related source and service agreements. The discontinuance of 
the subscription service model is expected to reduce radiation therapy professional services delivery costs, decrease 
cash burn, and re-focus the Company on the higher margin capital product and service offerings.

Cancer Therapy Segment Overview and Products

The Xoft System utilizes a miniaturized high dose rate yet low energy X-ray source to apply radiation directly to the 
cancerous site. The goal is to direct the radiation dose to the size and shape of the cancerous area while sparing healthy 
tissue and organs. The Xoft System delivers clinical dose rates similar to traditional radioactive systems. However, 
because of the electronic nature of the Xoft technology, the dose fall off is much faster, thus lowering the radiation 
exposure outside of the prescribed area. Given this rapid dose fall off, there is no need for a lead vault as compared to 
traditional isotope based radiation therapy, enabling the Xoft System to be transported to different locations within the 
same facility or between multiple facilities.

Intraoperative radiation therapy (“IORT”) can be delivered during an operative procedure, in as little as eight minutes, 
and  may  be  used  as  a  primary  or  secondary  modality. This  technology  enables  radiation  oncology  departments  in 
hospitals, clinics and physician offices to perform traditional radiotherapy treatments and offer advanced treatments 
such as IORT. Current customers of the Xoft System include university research and community hospitals, private and 
governmental institutions, doctors’ offices, cancer care clinics, veterinary facilities, and strategic partnerships with 
radiation oncology service providers that enable the supervised delivery of the technology in dermatologist offices.

Of the approximately 300,000 women who are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in the U.S., the majority, or 60% are 
diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. About 60% of early stage breast cancers qualify as candidates for treatment with 
eBx. Currently, a majority of early stage breast cancer patients who are treated with radiation therapy follow a five to seven-
week daily protocol of traditional external beam radiation while a small portion are treated with a five-day protocol using 
brachytherapy. IORT aims to simplify radiation treatment for early-stage breast cancer patients by delivering one precise dose 
of radiation directly to the lumpectomy cavity in a single, safe and effective procedure.

Breast cancer is a relatively common disease and is often treatable by surgery, followed by radiotherapy with an additional 
therapy such as chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy. Early detection has led to earlier diagnosis with small, early stage 
diseases  that  can  be  removed  by  local  excision  rather  than  a  complete  mastectomy.  Microscopic  cancerous  cells  can  be 
present and easily managed with the application of radiotherapy. The protocol for many years for most women included a 
day procedure for a lumpectomy and five to seven weeks of daily radiation. IORT allows the physician to treat the remaining 
breast tissue in the operating room while the patient is still under anesthesia, eliminating the need for five to seven weeks of 
daily traditional radiation therapy. In the last few years, in Europe and in the U.S., shorter treatment protocols of external beam 
radiation therapy hypo-fractionated to as few as three weeks have emerged as alternatives.

In a scientific paper presented at the 2010 ASCO Meeting, Dr. Jayant Vaidya of the University College London, UK, 
concluded that in the 2,200 patient multinational clinical trial (TARGIT-A trial) IORT, generated with 50 kV electronic 
brachytherapy, is equivalent to conventional external beam radiotherapy. In December 2012, Dr. Vaidya presented 
five-year  follow  up  data  on  the  TARGIT-A  trial  at  a  forum  in  conjunction  with  the  San  Antonio  Breast  Cancer

Symposium. Following this presentation, in November 2013 the Lancet online published the five-year update results 
of the TARGIT-A trial. The updated results of the trial demonstrated that local recurrence rates in the TARGIT (IORT) 
group were within the non-inferiority boundary when compared to the results in the group who received external beam 
radiation therapy and that mortality rates from causes other than breast cancer were lower in the TARGIT (IORT) 
group. In addition, the data revealed that at five years, the local recurrence rate in patients who were treated with IORT 
“concurrent”  with  lumpectomy  was  2.3%  compared  with  the  recurrence  rate  for  patients  who  received  traditional 
external beam radiation therapy which was 1.3%. Given the study had a non-inferiority boundary of 2.5%, the study 
revealed that IORT is a non-inferior treatment relative to external beam radiation therapy for patients who meet the 
established clinical criteria.

Additionally, in 2016, Melinda Epstein, PhD, et al. of Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian in Newport Beach, CA 
published two clinical papers on their experience with the Xoft System for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer 
with IORT. In June 2016, the Annals of Surgical Oncology published data on 702 patients treated from June 2010 to 
January 2016, demonstrating a 1.7% recurrence rate. Further, less than 5% of patients had significant complications, 
concluding that IORT safely delivers radiation and allows some women who cannot (or decline to) undergo whole 
breast radiation to consider breast-conserving therapy rather than mastectomy. In August 2016, The Breast Journal 
published  20-month  mean  follow-up  data  on  146  patients  with  pure  ductal  carcinoma  in  situ  (DCIS)  treated  with 
IORT. The data showed a 2.1% recurrence rate with relatively few complications and again concluded that x-ray based 
IORT is a promising treatment modality that greatly simplifies the delivery of post-excision radiation therapy.

Further,  in  2017,  researchers  from  Hoag  Memorial  Hospital  Presbyterian  published  another  clinical  paper  in  the 
Annals of Surgical Oncology on their experience with the Xoft System in treating 204 early-stage breast cancers in 
a prospective, X-ray IORT trial from June 2010 to September 2013. With a median follow-up of 50 months, results 
indicated there have been seven ipsilateral breast tumor events (IBTE), no regional or distant recurrences, and no 
breast cancer-related deaths. Kaplan-Meier analysis projects that 2.9% of patients will recur locally at 4 years. The 
site’s low complication and recurrence rates support the cautious use and continued study of IORT in selected woman 
with low-risk breast cancer. The Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian IORT series is currently the largest single-
facility IORT series with the Xoft System in the United States.

Also, in 2017, the Company announced results of a landmark study that showed the benefits of IORT compared to 
external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) in the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. The analysis demonstrated that 
IORT could result in direct cost savings for the U.S. healthcare system of more than $630 million over the lifetime of 
patients diagnosed annually with early-stage breast cancer, as well as significantly benefit patient health by minimizing 
radiation exposure and offering a better quality of life. The results of the study were published in November 2017 in 
the peer-reviewed Cost Effectiveness and Resource Allocation and determined IORT to be the preferred method of 
treatment.

As the Company continues to focus on broadening global awareness and patient access to IORT, 2017 also brought 
meaningful  progress  in  the  area  of  international  research.  Physicians  from  Taiwan  published  a  clinical  paper  in 
November 2017 in the peer-reviewed PLOS One journal. The multi-center study examined patient selection and the 
oncologic safety of IORT with the Xoft System for the management of early-stage breast cancer. From 2013-2015, 26 
hospitals in Taiwan performed a total of 261 IORT procedures. With a mean follow-up of 15.6 months, locoregional 
recurrence was observed in 0.8% of patients. The study concluded that preliminary results of IORT in Taiwan showed 
it is well accepted by patients and clinicians.

In August 2017, the Company announced that its balloon applicators received approval from the China Food & Drug 
Administration (CFDA) for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer. With this CFDA approval, the complete suite 
of  Xoft  System  products  is  now  available  to  clinicians  and  patients  in  China.  In  addition  to  the  Chinese  market, 
the company continues to build positive momentum and has regulatory approval in key geographies such as Spain, 
Australia, and Switzerland.

The reimbursement for IORT has improved from 2011 when the American Medical Association (AMA) established 
Category  I  CPT  codes  for  IORT  based  on  clinical  evidence.  These  codes  and  payment  values  became  effective 
beginning January 2013. In 2014, CMS announced that the payment value for IORT treatments would increase for the 
2015 year from the payment values in 2011. Current IORT payment values have remained consistent with the values 
established in 2014.

NMSC  is  considered  an  epidemic  in  the  U.S.  with  over  3.5  million  cases  diagnosed  annually.  Of  those  cases, 
approximately 20%-30% have specific diagnoses and lesion characteristics that make such patients potential candidates 
for  electronic  brachytherapy  treatment.  The  Xoft  System  is  a  viable  alternative  treatment  option  for  patients  with 
lesions in cosmetically challenging locations (ear, nose, scalp, neck), locations that experience difficulties in healing 
(lower legs, upper chest, fragile skin), patients on anticoagulants, and patients who are anxious about surgery. The 

5

Xoft System has been used to treat more than 10,000 NMSC lesions. Recent clinical data published from 2015 to 2017 
demonstrates promising local control and supports eBx as a convenient, effective, nonsurgical treatment option offering 
minimal toxicity and excellent cosmesis for eligible NMSC patients. In 2017, the Company announced that results of 
a matched-pair cohort study of 369 early-stage NMSC patients treated with the Xoft System or Mohs micrographic 
surgery  showed  that  rates  of  recurrence  of  cancer  were virtually  identical at  a mean follow-up  of 3.4  years.  Mohs 
micrographic surgery is accepted as the most effective technique for removing basal cell carcinoma and squamous 
cell carcinoma. The study results were published online in the peer-reviewed Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy.

Since 2016, electronic brachytherapy for the treatment of NMSC has been reimbursed under a skin-specific Category 
III CPT code. Reimbursement for the treatment delivery is provided through the Category III CPT code, 0394T, which 
covers high dose rate electronic brachytherapy, skin surface application, per fraction, and includes basic dosimetry, 
when performed. There are additional Category I CPT codes reportable with the service as determined by physician 
orders, medical necessity, and documentation. Coverage policies and payment values associated with CPT code 0394T 
are determined by the regional U.S. Medicare Administrative Contractors. There are several Medicare Administrative 
Contractors that have published rates for the 0394T code and others that reimburse on a case-by-case basis.

Gynecological  cancers  are  also  appropriate  for  treatment  with  electronic  brachytherapy.  There  are  approximately 
50,000 new cases of endometrial cancer each year in the U.S. and nearly 300,000 new cases worldwide. In 2017, the 
first-ever European analysis of electronic brachytherapy using the Xoft System for endometrial and cervical cancer 
treatment was presented at the ESTRO meeting. Researchers from Miguel Servet University Hospital in Zaragoza, 
Spain  presented  promising  study  results  demonstrating  excellent  outcomes  in  acute  toxicity  in  29  endometrial  or 
cervical cancer patients treated with the Xoft System from September 2015 to September 2016. Additional research 
showed that electronic brachytherapy delivered a lower dose of radiation to surrounding healthy organs at risk, such 
as the bladder and rectum, than would have been delivered had 192Ir been utilized instead of the Xoft System.

Additionally, electronic brachytherapy is appropriate for use in other IORT clinical settings where surgical resection 
is unable to completely eliminate all cancer cells. In the U.S. and international settings, the Company believes that 
IORT for prostate, pelvic, gastrointestinal, abdominal, spinal, and soft tissue sarcoma applications remains a potential 
market given the minimal shielding requirements associated with this treatment modality.

Electronic Brachytherapy products:

Electronic Brachytherapy (eBx®) Treatment for Breast Cancer 
Xoft System

The portable Xoft system uses isotope-free miniaturized X-ray tube technology to deliver therapy directly to cancer 
sites with minimal radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissue. The Xoft System is FDA-cleared, CE marked 
and licensed in a growing number of countries for the treatment of cancer anywhere in the body, including early-stage

the Xoft system including breast applicators for IORT and APBI in the treatment of breast cancer, vaginal applicators 
for the treatment of endometrial cancer, cervical applicators for the treatment of cervical cancer, and skin applicators 
for  the  treatment  of  non-melanoma  skin  cancers.  The  flexible  single-use  breast  IORT  and  APBI  applicators  are 
offered in a variety of sizes based on clinical need. The endometrial, cervical and skin applicators are reusable and 
are manufactured in various sizes based on the anatomical requirements of the patient or the size of the lesion. The 
Company also provides the 50kV isotope-free energy source, a comprehensive service warranty program, and various 
accessories such as the Axxent eBx Rigid Shield for internal IORT shielding. The 50kV energy source is typically sold 
as an annual contract customized to individual customer volume/usage requirements.

The  Company  has  made  several  enhancements  to  the  Xoft  system  controller  including  a  new  software  interface 
enabling enhanced system functionality and an upgraded high voltage connection improving system performance. In 
2014, the Company developed and launched a new SPX Controller which includes an optimized skin treatment arm 
customized for compatibility in confined patient treatment rooms in physician office-based facilities. This controller 
complements the MPX Controller which is designed for multi-application use. In 2016, the Company unveiled a new 
Streamlined Module for Advanced Radiation Therapy (SMART) solution for its Xoft System and Axxent Hub cloud-
based oncology collaboration software solution. Comprising a new Wi-Fi enabled Xoft System and enhanced Axxent 
Hub cloud software, the SMART solution improves workflow efficiency and the flexibility and security of skin eBx 
treatments while also improving clinical collaboration and supervision.

In early 2013, the Company received FDA clearance for a new applicator for use in the treatment of cervical cancer 
and  launched  this  product  in  the  U.S  and  international  markets  in  2015.  This  new  applicator  further  expands  the 
Company’s  product  portfolio  in  the  gynecological  cancer  market  and  enables  customers  to  offer  comprehensive 
electronic brachytherapy solutions to their patients in need of gynecological radiation therapy.

Cancer Detection Segment Overview and Products

Mammography CAD systems use sophisticated algorithms to analyze image data and mark suspicious areas in the 
image that may indicate cancer. The locations of the abnormalities are marked in a manner that allows the reader of the 
image to reference the same areas in the original mammogram for further review. The use of CAD aids in the detection 
of potential abnormalities for the radiologist to review. After initially reviewing the case films or digital images, a 
radiologist reviews the CAD results and subsequently re-examines suspicious areas that warrant a second look before 
making a final interpretation of the study. The radiologist determines if a clinically significant abnormality exists and 
whether further diagnostic evaluation is warranted. As a medical imaging tool, CAD is most prevalent as an adjunct 
to mammography given the documented success of CAD for detecting breast cancer.

Digital Mammography CAD products:

Advanced Image Analysis and Workflow Solutions in Breast Imaging (Mammography)

iCAD develops and markets a comprehensive range of high-performance Artificial Intelligent cancer detection and 
workflow solutions for digital mammography systems worldwide. iCAD’s PowerLook Mammo Detection (also known 
as SecondLook Digital) is based on sophisticated patented algorithms that analyze the data, automatically identifying 
and marking suspicious regions in 2D full field digital mammography images. The solution provides the radiologist 
with a “second look” which helps the radiologist detect actionable missed cancers earlier than screening mammography 
alone. PowerLook Mammo Detection detects and identifies suspicious masses and micro-calcifications utilizing image 
processing, pattern recognition and artificial intelligence techniques. Information from thousands of mammography 
images are incorporated into these algorithms enabling the product to distinguish between characteristics of cancerous 
and  normal  tissue. The  result  is  earlier  detection  of  hard-to-find  cancers,  improved  workflow  for  radiologists,  and 
higher quality patient care.

In June 2012, iCAD introduced its next generation PowerLook Advanced Mammography Platform® (AMP) recently 
rebranded as PowerLook Breast Health Solutions. The technology expands on iCAD’s legacy SecondLook Digital 
platform and is the mammography platform upon which all future breast imaging offerings from iCAD will be built. 
PowerLook  Breast  Health  Solutions  is  the  first  product  suite  of  its  kind  to  integrate  cancer  detection  and  breast 
density  assessment  software,  which  aids  radiologists  by  standardizing  their  approach  to  breast  density  assessment 
and categorization. The Company acquired the breast density assessment solution from VuComp in April 2015 and 
subsequently released it to market under the product name iReveal and recently rebranded to PowerLook Density 
Assessment. Thirty states now mandate reporting of a breast density score to patients as part of the annual mammogram, 
PowerLook Density Assessment provides an automated, consistent and standardized reporting tool to assist with this 
process.

Included with PowerLook is a multi-vendor CAD and density assessment server that allows hospitals and imaging 
facilities  to  connect  up  to  four  mammography  acquisition  devices  regardless  of  vendor. This  reduces  the  need  for 
separate CAD servers while lowering hardware and service costs. iCAD’s PowerLook also provides a powerful flexible 
DICOM  connectivity  solution  enabling  universal  compatibility  with  leading  picture  archive  and  communication 
systems (“PACS”) and Review Workstations. The Company expects additional modules to be released and integrated 
into PowerLook AMP platform in the future.

PowerLook Server

PowerLook Server is designed to function with leading digital mammography systems (digital breast tomosynthesis, 
FFDM  and  computed  radiography)  –  including  systems  sold  by  GE  Healthcare,  Siemens  Medical  Systems,  Fuji 
Medical Systems, Hologic, Inc., Sectra Medical Systems, Philips, Carestream, IMS Giotto, Agfa Corporation, and 
Planmed. The algorithms in the PowerLook solutions have been optimized for each digital imaging provider based 
upon characteristics of their unique detectors.

PowerLook Server is a computer server residing on a customer’s network that receives patient studies from the imaging 
modality,  performs  analysis  and  sends  the  results  to  PACS  and/or  review  workstations.  Workflow  and  efficiency 
are  critical  in  digital  imaging  environments  therefore  iCAD  has  developed  flexible,  powerful  DICOM  integration 
capabilities  that  enable  PowerLook AMP  to  integrate  with  leading  PACS  and  review  workstations  from  multiple 
providers. iCAD has worked with its OEM partners to ensure its product results are integrated and easily viewed using 
each review workstation’s graphical user interface.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (“MRI”)

In July 2012, iCAD entered into a strategic partnership agreement with Invivo Corp., a subsidiary of Philips Healthcare. 

7

With  this  agreement,  iCAD  began  developing  the  DynaCAD  product  software  for  breast  and  prostate  MR  image 
analysis workstations to help radiologists find cancer earlier and more efficiently. Invivo sells the DynaCAD product 
both  directly  and  through  the  Philips  global  distribution  network.  In August  2015,  Invivo  exercised  a  contractual 
right to a perpetual paid up license in exchange for a payment of approximately $2.0 million. In January 2017, the 
MRI products and related assets were sold to Invivo Corp. for $3.2 million. Prior to the January 2017 sale of the MRI 
products and related assets, the paid-up license fee was being amortized over the remaining life of the agreement.

Breast Tomosynthesis

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (“DBT”) was introduced in the United States in 2010 by Hologic, Inc., followed by GE 
Healthcare who received FDA approval for their tomosynthesis system in August 2014, Siemens approval followed in 
April 2015, and Fuji was approved in early 2017. Tomosynthesis has been demonstrated to have multiple advantages 
over  traditional  2D  mammography.  It  has  improved  tissue  visualization  and  detection  and  results  in  lower  recall 
rates  for  patients.  Tomosynthesis  improves  the  sensitivity  and  specificity  of  cancer  diagnosis  when  compared  to 
mammography. Clinical studies indicate that digital breast tomosynthesis improves the ability to distinguish malignant 
from benign tumors and can detect early signs of cancer hidden by overlapping tissues. This helps reduce the overall 
number of biopsies performed and the call back rates. Initial studies have indicated that tomosynthesis has the ability to 
detect 41% more invasive cancers than conventional mammography, and it also reduces false-positives by up to 40%.

Artificial  intelligence  can  play  an  important  role  in  improving  the  accuracy  and  efficiency  of  reading  breast 
tomosynthesis  cases  by  automatically  identifying  breast  masses  and  micro-calcifications.  In  2015,  the  Company 
completed development of its cancer detection and workflow solution for DBT to aid radiologists in their review of 
DBT as a means of improving lesion detection and reducing the time to read the large tomosynthesis datasets. The 
initial solution is developed for use with GE Healthcare’s digital breast tomosynthesis for the detection of soft tissue 
densities (masses, architectural distortions and asymmetries). In January 2017, the Company submitted an amendment 
to its original PMA application for its 3D tomosynthesis product and the Company received FDA Approval in March 
of  2017.  The  Company  is  continuing  to  develop  a  multi-vendor  DBT  solution  that  will  detect  calcifications  and 
contain additional functionality and workflow tools. The Company received CE mark in early 2018 and expects Health 
Canada and FDA clearance in late 2018.

Computed Tomography Applications and Colonic Polyp Detection

CT  Colonography  (“CT”)  is  a  well-established  and  widely  used  imaging  technology  that  is  used  to  image  cross-
sectional “slices” of various parts of the human body. When combined, these “slices” provide detailed volumetric 
representations of the imaged areas. With recent image quality improvements and greatly increased imaging speeds, 
CT imaging use has expanded in both the number of procedures performed as well as the applications for which it is 
utilized. While the increased image quality and number of cross sectional slices per scan provides valuable diagnostic 
information, it adds to the challenge of managing and interpreting the large volume of data generated. The Company 
believes  that  the  challenges  in  CT  imaging  present  it  with  opportunities  to  provide  automated  image  analysis  and 
clinical decision support solutions.

CTC is a less invasive technique than traditional colonoscopy for imaging the colon. However, the process of reading 
a CTC exam can be lengthy and tedious as the interpreting physician is often required to traverse the entire length of 
the colon multiple times. Computer Aided Detection (“CAD”) technology can play an important role in improving 
the  accuracy  and  efficiency  of  reading  CTC  cases  by  automatically  identifying  potential  polyps.  CAD  technology 
has been developed to aid radiologists in their review of CTC images as a means of improving polyp detection. The 
Company believes that CAD could become an important adjunct to CTC.

Advanced Image Analysis and Workflow Solutions in CT Colonography

VeraLook™

iCAD introduced a CAD solution, VeraLook, a CAD algorithm for CTC, in August 2010 following FDA clearance 
of  the  product.  This  solution  is  designed  to  support  detection  of  colonic  polyps  in  conjunction  with  CTC.  iCAD 
believes that Veralook is a natural extension of iCAD’s core competencies in image analysis and image processing. 
The system works in conjunction with third party display workstations and PACS vendors. Field testing of the product 
was initiated in 2008 and iCAD conducted a multi-reader clinical study of iCAD’s Veralook product, for use with 
CTC.  Results  of  the  Company’s  clinical  study,  “Impact  of  Computer-Aided  Detection  for  CT  Colonography  in  a 
Multireader, Multicase Trial” demonstrated that reader sensitivity improved 5.5% for patients with both small and 
large  polyps  with  the  use  of  Veralook.  The  use  of  Veralook  reduced  specificity  of  readers  by  2.5%.  The  clinical 
relevance of Veralook was improved reader performance while maintaining high reader specificity. Throughout 2016, 
iCAD  distributed  the  VeraLook  product  with  advanced  visualization  reading  workstations  manufactured  by  Vital 

8

Images, a Toshiba Medical System Group Company and added Philips Healthcare in the U.S. in early 2018. In 2014, 
iCAD received CFDA (China Food and Drug Administration) approval to sell VeraLook in China.

Sales and Marketing

iCAD, through its Xoft subsidiary, markets the Xoft System in the United States and select countries worldwide. The 
Company has expanded its installed base of Xoft Systems in the U.S. and has established increasing installations in 
a number of countries located in Europe and Asia. Xoft has established strong partnerships in Australia, Bulgaria, 
Canada, China, Hong Kong, Macau Egypt/ Saudi Arabia, India, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Russia, South Korea, Spain, 
Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Luxemburg, Taiwan, Turkey, United Kingdom and Ireland, and is actively 
exploring market entry in South and Central America.

Xoft’s direct U.S. sales force sells the system on the basis of its clinical effectiveness as a platform high dose rate, 
low  energy  radiation  therapy  solution  for  hospitals,  ambulatory  care  centers  and  free-standing  radiation  oncology 
facilities and other office-based uses, e.g. dermatology clinical practices. The Xoft System offers a distinct competitive 
advantage in that it is a highly mobile unit with minimal shielding requirements that can easily be moved from room 
to room within a single healthcare institution or be transported from facility to facility given its relatively compact 
form factor.

Breast IORT is a strategic focus of the Company due to the significant clinical /lifestyle benefits to the patient and 
economic  advantages  to  the  facility.  NMSC  is  an  additional  strategic  priority  given  the  high  incidence  rate  of  the 
disease and the benefits of the Xoft System in this clinical indication. Based on the additional clinical applications 
including gynecological cancers, other IORT applications (in addition to breast IORT), as well as its potential to scale 
in the future to address other indications for use, the Company believes the Xoft System offers unique flexibility and 
opportunities for growth.

Core to the Company’s eBx market development strategy is a comprehensive medical education program. Xoft actively 
participates in several key industry scientific conferences in the United States and Europe including but not limited to 
ASTRO, ESTRO and ASBrS on an annual basis. More recently, Xoft has participated in key dermatology conferences 
in the U.S. including AAD. At select industry conferences and at independent venues, the Company provides specific 
additional eBx professional education programs and product demonstrations in the form of live educational sessions in 
U.S. markets. The Company supported its medical education program in 2017 with educational webinars and clinical 
presentations at key industry meetings to broaden physician awareness of the Xoft System and eBx technology in 
the U.S. The Company also maintains a scientific advisory board composed of leading clinician experts who share a 
commitment to raising awareness of the unique benefits the Xoft eBx system offers to providers and patients alike.

The Company further supports breast IORT through its ongoing ExBRT Clinical Trial– a post-market clinical trial 
designed to enroll 1,000 patients at up to 50 sites. The study enables facilities interested in treating early stage breast 
cancer patients with the Xoft System to participate in a common clinical protocol and follow enrolled patients for up 
to ten years. The ExBRT study is led by brachytherapy and breast care physicians including breast surgeons, radiation 
oncologists, pathologists, and medical physicists from leading U.S. breast cancer care institutions. In February 2018, 
the study completed enrollment of 1,200 patients at 27 centers in the U.S. and Europe. Clinical results from the ExBRT 
study are expected to be presented at key medical conferences in 2018.

iCAD’s mammography products are sold through its direct regional sales organization in the U.S. as well as through its 
OEM partners, including GE Healthcare, Fuji Medical Systems, and Siemens Medical Systems. The VeraLook CTC 
CAD product is primarily distributed by Vital Images and Philips Healthcare, which will integrate the iCAD solution 
in the U.S.

The  Company’s  cancer  detection  products  are  marketed  on  the  basis  of  their  clinical  superiority  and  their  ability 
to  assist  radiologists  detect  more  cancers  earlier,  while  seamlessly  integrating  into  the  clinical  workflow  of  the 
radiologist. As part of its sales and marketing efforts, iCAD has developed and executed a variety of public relations 
and local outreach programs with numerous iCAD customers. Additional investments continue to be made to cultivate 
relationships with the leaders in breast cancer solutions such as at worldwide or national trade shows, where industry 
leaders discuss the future of image analysis solutions in these clinical disciplines.

Competition

The  Company’s  existing  eBx  products  face  competition  in  breast  IORT  primarily  from  one  company:  Carl  Zeiss 
Meditec, Inc., (“Zeiss”) a multinational company, where eBx products are only one of that company’s many products. 
Zeiss manufactures and sells eBx products for the delivery of IORT. Zeiss has expanded their product portfolio to 
include additional anatomical areas beyond breast IORT. Zeiss now offers a range of radiation therapy applicators 

9

for use in various applications including spine, the gastrointestinal tract, skin, and endometrial cancers. Zeiss has an 
established base of breast IORT installations in Europe where the majority of the TARGIT-A trial clinical sites are 
located. IntraOp Medical is an additional competitor in the high dose rate (“HDR”) radiation therapy market.

The Company’s NMSC products face numerous competitors utilizing a variety of technologies. Surface Radiation 
Therapy (SRT) systems, including Sensus Healthcare, directly compete with the Xoft System in this market in which 
Dermatologists and Radiation Oncologists seek mobile, efficient, non-surgical treatment options. In late 2013, Elekta 
received clearance for its electronic brachytherapy system “Esteya” for use in the treatment of NMSC. This system 
utilizes  a  low  energy  69.5  kV  source  and  a  range  of  surface  applicators  in  a  small  footprint  system  profile.  Other 
competitors in the NMSC market include surgery (excision, Mohs surgery, and destruction). Mohs surgery remains the 
primary treatment option for dermatologists in the majority of NMSC cases. Traditional radiation therapy including 
external beam radiation therapy is also a treatment modality used to treat NMSC patients.

New market opportunities including expansion of the gynecological product portfolio and other IORT applications 
beyond breast IORT have brought competitive dynamics to the Company’s efforts. Larger, more diversified radiation 
therapy  companies  offering  a  wide  variety  of  clinical  solutions  for  HDR  brachytherapy  including Varian  Medical 
Systems and Elekta compete in these areas. These multi-national firms offer broad product portfolios including a full 
range of HDR brachytherapy afterloaders and applicators as well as traditional radiation therapy solutions including 
linear accelerators, treatment planning solutions, and workflow management capabilities.

The Company currently faces direct competition in its cancer detection and density assessment business from Hologic, 
Inc., Volpara, Parascript, and StatLife. The Company believes that its market leadership in mammography CAD and 
density assessment and strong relationships with its strategic partners will provide it with a competitive advantage in 
the mammography CAD and density assessment market.

The  Company  has  a  strong  OEM  relationship  with  GE  Healthcare  worldwide  supporting  its  PowerLook  Tomo 
Detection for breast tomosynthesis. The Company believes that there is no direct competition at this time. With the 
pending release of the multi-vendor solution PowerLook Tomo Detection 2.0, the Company expects to expand its 
OEM partnerships with other DBT providers.

The  Company’s  CT  Colon  solution  faces  competition  from  the  traditional  imaging  CT  equipment  manufacturers 
and  emerging  CAD  companies.  Siemens  Medical,  GE  Healthcare,  and  Philips  Medical  Systems  currently  offer 
polyp  detection  products  outside  the  U.S.  Siemens  Medical  received  FDA  clearance  for  CT  Polyp  CAD  in  2014. 
The Company expects that CT manufacturers will offer a colonic polyp detection solution as an advanced feature of 
their image management and display products typically sold with their CT equipment. The Company believes that 
current regulatory requirements present a significant barrier to entry into this market and that its market leadership in 
mammography CAD provides it with a competitive advantage within the CT Colonography community.

iCAD operates in highly competitive and rapidly changing markets with competitive products available from nationally 
and internationally recognized companies. Many of these competitors have significantly greater financial, technical 
and  human  resources  than  iCAD  and  these  competitors  are  well  established  in  the  healthcare  market.  In  addition, 
some companies have developed or may develop technologies or products that could compete with the products the 
Company  manufactures  and  distributes  or  that  would  render  our  products  obsolete  or  noncompetitive.  Moreover, 
competitors may achieve patent protection, regulatory approval, or product commercialization before we do, which 
would limit our ability to compete with them. These and other competitive pressures could have a material adverse 
effect on the Company’s business.

Manufacturing and Professional Services 

The Company’s CAD products are manufactured and assembled by the Company. In addition, the Company conducts 
purchasing and supply chain management, planning/scheduling, manufacturing engineering, service repairs, quality 
assurance, inventory management, and warehousing. Once the product has shipped, it is usually installed by one of 
the Company’s OEM partners at the customer site. When a product sale is made directly to the end customer by iCAD, 
the product is generally installed by iCAD personnel at the customer site.

iCAD’s  professional  services  staff  is  composed  of  a  team  of  trained  and  specialized  individuals  providing 
comprehensive product support on a pre-sales and post-sales basis. This includes pre-sale product demonstrations, 
product  installations,  applications  training,  and  call  center  management  (or  technical  support). The  support  center 
is the single point of contact for the customer, providing remote diagnostics, troubleshooting, training, and service 
dispatch. Service repair efforts are generally performed at the customer site by third party service organizations or in 
the Company’s repair depot by the Company’s repair technicians.

10

Xoft’s portable Xoft System is manufactured and assembled for Xoft by contract manufacturers. Xoft’s electronic 
brachytherapy  miniaturized  X-ray  source,  which  is  used  to  deliver  radiation  directly  to  the  cancerous  site,  is 
manufactured  in  the  Company’s  San  Jose,  CA  facility.  Xoft  operations  consist  of  manufacturing,  engineering, 
administration, purchasing, planning and scheduling, service repairs, quality assurance, inventory management, and 
warehousing. Once the product has shipped, it is typically installed by Xoft personnel at the customer site.

Xoft’s field service and customer service staff is composed of a team of trained and specialized individuals providing 
comprehensive  product  support,  physics  support,  radiation  therapists  and  billing  support  on  a  pre-sales  and  post-
sales basis. The field service staff also provides product installations, maintenance, training and service repair efforts 
generally  performed  at  the  customer  site.  The  customer  service  staff  provides  pre-sale  product  demonstrations, 
customer support, troubleshooting, service dispatch and call center management.

Government Regulation

The  Company’s  systems  are  medical  devices  subject  to  extensive  regulation  by  the  FDA  under  the  Federal  Food, 
Drug, and Cosmetic Act with potentially significant costs for compliance. The FDA’s regulations govern, among other 
things, product development, product testing,  product labeling,  product storage, pre-market clearance or approval, 
advertising and promotion, and sales and distribution. The Company’s devices are also subject to FDA clearance or 
approval before they can be marketed in the U.S. and may be subject to additional regulatory approvals before they 
can be marketed outside the U.S. There is no guarantee that future products or product modifications will receive the 
necessary approvals.

The  FDA’s  Quality  System  Regulations  require  that  the  Company’s  operations  follow  extensive  design,  testing, 
control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during the manufacturing process. The Company is 
subject to FDA regulations covering labeling and adverse event reporting including the FDA’s general prohibition of 
promoting products for unapproved or off-label uses.

The  Company’s  manufacturing  facilities  are  subject  to  periodic  inspections  by  the  FDA  and  corresponding  state 
agencies. Compliance with extensive international regulatory requirements is also required. Failure to fully comply 
with  applicable  regulations  could  result  in  the  Company  receiving  warning  letters,  non-approvals,  suspensions  of 
existing approvals, civil penalties and criminal fines, product seizures and recalls, operating restrictions, injunctions, 
and criminal prosecution.

We are also subject to a variety of federal, state and foreign laws which broadly relate to our interactions with healthcare 
practitioners and other participants in the healthcare system, including, among others, the following:

• 

• 

• 

• 

anti-kickback, false claims, physician self-referral, and anti-bribery laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt 
Practices Act, or FCPA, the UK’s Bribery Act 2010, or the UK Anti-Bribery Act;
state law and regulation regarding fee splitting and other relationships between health care providers 
and non-professional entities, including companies providing management and reimbursement services;
laws  regulating  the  privacy  and  security  of  personally  identifiable  information,  such  as  the  Health 
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, and the Health Information Technology 
for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH Act; and
healthcare  reform  laws,  such  as  the  Patient  Protection  and Affordable  Care Act  and  the  Health  Care 
and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010, which we refer to together as PPACA, which 
include regulatory mandates and other measures designed to constrain medical costs, as well as stringent 
reporting  requirements  of  financial  relationships  between  device  manufacturers  and  physicians  and 
teaching hospitals.

In  addition,  we  are  subject  to  numerous  federal,  state,  foreign  and  local  laws  relating  to  safe  working  conditions, 
manufacturing  practices,  environmental  protection,  fire  hazard  control  and  disposal  of  hazardous  or  potentially 
hazardous substances, among others. We may be required to incur significant costs to comply with these laws and 
regulations in the future, and complying with these laws may result in a material adverse effect upon our business, 
financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, in order to market and sell our products in certain countries outside of the U.S., we must obtain and 
maintain regulatory approvals and comply with the regulations of each specific country. These regulations, including 
the requirements for approvals, and the time required for regulatory review vary by country.

Federal, state, and foreign regulations regarding the manufacture and sale of medical devices and management services 
and software are subject to future change. We cannot predict what impact, if any, such changes might have on our 
business.

11

Reimbursement

The federal and state governments of the United States establish guidelines and pay reimbursements to hospitals and 
free-standing clinics for diagnostic examinations and therapeutic procedures under Medicare at the federal level and 
Medicaid at the state level. Private insurers often establish payment levels and policies based on reimbursement rates 
and guidelines established by the government.

The  federal  government  reviews  and  adjusts  coverage  policies  and  reimbursement  levels  periodically  and  also 
consider various Medicare and other healthcare reform proposals that could significantly affect both private and public 
reimbursement  for  healthcare  services  in  hospitals  and  free-standing  clinics.  State  government  reimbursement  for 
services  is  determined  pursuant  to  each  state’s  Medicaid  plan,  which  is  established  by  state  law  and  regulations, 
subject to requirements of federal law and regulations.

Market  acceptance  of  our  medical  products  in  the  U.S.  and  other  countries  is  dependent  upon  the  purchasing  and 
procurement practices of our customers, patient demand for our products and procedures, and the reimbursement of 
patients’ medical expenses by government healthcare programs, private insurers or other healthcare payors.

The provisions of the Affordable Care Act went into effect in 2012. We are continuing to evaluate the Affordable 
Care Act and its impact on our business. We believe that elements of the program including the shift to value-based 
healthcare and increased focus on patient satisfaction will benefit the Company in the future. Other elements of this 
legislation, including comparative effectiveness research, payment system reforms (including shared savings pilots) 
and other provisions, could meaningfully change the way healthcare is developed and delivered, and may materially 
impact numerous aspects of our business, including the demand and availability of our products, the reimbursement 
available  for  our  products  from  governmental  and  third-party  payors,  and  reduced  medical  procedure  volumes. 
Additionally, we are now evaluating the possible effect of the repeal or replacement of the Affordable Care Act.

Intellectual Property

The Company primarily relies on a combination of patents, trade secrets and copyright law, third-party and employee 
confidentiality agreements, and other protective measures to protect its intellectual property rights pertaining to our 
products and technologies.

The Company has many patents covering its CAD and eBx technologies expiring between 2018 and 2028. These 
patents help the Company maintain a proprietary position in its markets. Additionally, the Company has a number of 
patent applications pending domestically, some of which have been also filed internationally, and the Company plans 
to file additional domestic and foreign patent applications when it believes such protection will benefit the Company. 
These  patents  and  patent  applications  relate  to  current  and  future  uses  of  iCAD’s  cancer  detection  and  digitizer 
technologies and products, including cancer detection solutions for tomosynthesis, CAD for CT colonography and 
lung and CAD for MRI breast and prostate, as well as Xoft’s current and future eBx technologies and products. The 
Company has also secured a non-exclusive patent license from the National Institute of Health which relates broadly 
to CAD in colonography, a non-exclusive patent license from Cytyc/Hologic which relates to balloon applicators for 
breast brachytherapy, and a non-exclusive license from Zeiss which relates to brachytherapy. The Company believes 
it has all the necessary licenses from third parties for software and other technologies in its products; however, we do 
not know if current or future patent applications will issue with the full scope of the claims sought, if at all, or whether 
any patents issued will be challenged or invalidated.

Sources and Availability of Materials

The Company depends upon a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers for its products, and certain components 
in its products may be available from a sole or limited number of suppliers. The Company’s products are generally 
either manufactured and assembled for it by a sole manufacturer, by a limited number of manufacturers or assembled 
by it from supplies it obtains from a limited number of suppliers. Critical components required to manufacture these 
products, whether by outside manufacturers or directly, may be available from a sole or limited number of component 
suppliers. The Company generally does not have long-term arrangements with any of its manufacturers or suppliers. 
The loss of a sole or key manufacturer or supplier would impair the Company’s ability to deliver products to customers 
in  a  timely  manner  and  would  adversely  affect  its  sales  and  operating  results. The  Company’s  business  would  be 
harmed if any of its manufacturers or suppliers could not meet its quality and performance specifications and quantity 
and delivery requirements.

Major Customers

The  Company  operates  in  two  segments:  Cancer  Detection  (“Detection”)  and  Cancer  Therapy  (“Therapy”).  The 

12

Company markets its products for digital mammography and cancer therapy systems through its direct regional sales 
organization. Cancer detection products are also sold through OEM partners, including GE Healthcare, Fuji Medical 
Systems, Siemens Medical and Invivo. OEM partners generated approximately 55% of Detection revenues and 36% 
of  revenue  overall.  GE  Healthcare  was  the  largest  single  customer  with  approximately  $7.1  million  in  2017,  $3.9 
million in 2016, and $4.1 million in 2015 or 25%, 15%, and 10% of total revenues, respectively.

Engineering and Product Development 

The Company spent $9.6 million, $10.3 million, and $9.8 million on research and development activities including 
depreciation and amortization, during the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Research 
and development expenses are primarily attributed to personnel, consulting, subcontract, licensing and data collection 
expenses relating to the Company’s new product development and clinical testing.

Employees

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had 119 employees, of whom 115 are full time employees, with 31 involved 
in sales and marketing, 20 in research and development, 56 in service, manufacturing, technical support and operations 
functions, and 12 in administrative functions. None of the Company’s employees is represented by a labor organization. 
The Company considers its relations with employees to be good.

Environmental Protection

Compliance with federal, state and local provisions which have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of 
materials into the environment, or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, has not had a material effect 
upon the capital expenditures, earnings (losses) or competitive position of the Company.

Financial Geographic Information 

The Company’s primary market is in the United States through its direct sales force and OEM partners. Export sales 
are typically through OEM and channel partners. Total export sales represented approximately $3.9 million or 14% 
of revenue in 2017 as compared to $2.3 million or 9% of revenue in 2016 and $2.3 million or 6% of total revenue in 
2015. Export sales by region are as follows (in thousands):

Foreign Regulations

International sales of the Company’s products are subject to foreign government regulation, the requirements of which 
vary substantially from country to country. The time required to obtain approval by a foreign country may be longer 
or shorter than that required for FDA approval, and the requirements may differ. Obtaining and maintaining foreign 
regulatory approvals is an expensive and time-consuming process. The Company cannot be certain that it will be able 
to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals timely or at all in any foreign country in which it plans to market its CAD 
products and the Xoft system, and if it fails to receive and maintain such approvals, its ability to generate revenue may 
be significantly diminished.

Product Liability Insurance

The  Company  believes  that  it  maintains  appropriate  product  liability  insurance  with  respect  to  its  products.  The 
Company cannot be certain that with respect to its current or future products, such insurance coverage will continue 
to be available on terms acceptable to the Company or that such coverage will be adequate for liabilities that may 
actually be incurred.

Item 1A. 

Risk Factors.

We operate in a changing environment that involves numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could 
materially adversely affect our operations. The following highlights some of the factors that have affected, and/or in 
the future could affect, our operations.

We have incurred significant losses from inception through 2017 and there can be no assurance that we will be 
able to achieve and sustain future profitability.

We have incurred significant losses since our inception. We incurred a net loss of $14.3 million in fiscal 2017 and have 
an accumulated deficit of $201.9 million at December 31, 2017. We may not be able to achieve profitability.

We rely on intellectual property and proprietary rights to maintain our competitive position and may not be 
able to protect these rights.

We rely heavily on proprietary technology that we protect primarily through licensing arrangements, patents, trade 
secrets, proprietary know-how and non-disclosure agreements. There can be no assurance that any pending or future 
patent applications will be granted or that any current or future patents, regardless of whether we are an owner or a 
licensee of the patent, will not be challenged, rendered unenforceable, invalidated, or circumvented or that the rights 
will provide a competitive advantage to us. There can also be no assurance that our trade secrets or non-disclosure 
agreements  will  provide  meaningful  protection  of  our  proprietary  information.  Further,  we  cannot  assure  you  that 
others will not independently develop similar technologies or duplicate any technology developed by us or that our 
technology will not infringe upon patents or other rights owned by others. There is a risk that our patent applications will 
not result in granted patents or that granted patents will not provide significant protection for our products and technology. 
Unauthorized third parties may infringe our intellectual property rights, or copy or reverse engineer portions of our technology. 
Our competitors may independently develop similar technology that our patents do not cover. In addition, because patent 
applications in the U.S. are not generally publicly disclosed until eighteen months after the application is filed, applications 
may have been filed by third parties that relate to our technology. Moreover, there is a risk that foreign intellectual property 
laws will not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as intellectual property laws in the U.S. The rights 
provided by a patent are finite in time. Over the coming years, certain patents relating to current products will expire in the 
U.S. and abroad thus allowing third parties to utilize certain of our technologies. In the absence of significant patent protection, 
we may be vulnerable to competitors who attempt to copy our products, processes or technology.

In addition, in the future, we may be required to assert infringement claims against third parties, and there can be no 
assurance that one or more parties will not assert infringement claims against us. Any resulting litigation or proceeding 
could  result  in  significant  expense  to  us  and  divert  the  efforts  of  our  management  personnel,  whether  or  not  such 
litigation or proceeding is determined in our favor. In addition, to the extent that any of our intellectual property and 
proprietary rights was ever deemed to violate the proprietary rights of others in any litigation or proceeding or as a 
result of any claim, we may be prevented from using them, which could cause a termination of our ability to sell our 
products. Litigation could also result in a judgment or monetary damages being levied against us. 

Unfavorable results of legal proceedings could materially adversely affect our financial results 

From time to time, we are a party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings, claims and government inspections or 
investigations and other legal matters, both inside and outside the United States, arising in the ordinary course of our 

14

business or otherwise. Legal proceedings are often lengthy, taking place over a period of years with interim motions or 
judgments subject to multiple levels of review (such as appeals or rehearings) before the outcome is final. Litigation is 
subject to significant uncertainty and may be expensive, time-consuming, and disruptive to our operations. For these 
and other reasons, we may choose to settle legal proceedings and claims, regardless of their actual merit.

If a legal proceeding were finally resolved against us, it could result in significant compensatory damages, and in 
certain circumstances, punitive or trebled damages, disgorgement of revenue or profits, remedial corporate measures 
or injunctive relief imposed on us. If our existing insurance does not cover the amount or types of damages awarded, or 
if other resolutions or actions taken as a result of the legal proceeding were to restrain our ability to market one or more 
of our material products or services, our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows could be 
materially adversely affected. In addition, legal proceedings, and any adverse resolution thereof, can result in adverse 
publicity and damage to our reputation, which could adversely impact our business.

We may be exposed to significant product liability for which we may not have sufficient insurance coverage or be 
able to procure sufficient insurance coverage.

Our  product  and  general  liability  insurance  coverage  may  be  inadequate  with  respect  to  potential  claims  and  adequate 
insurance coverage may not be available in sufficient amounts or at a reasonable cost in the future. If available at all, product 
liability insurance for the medical device industry generally is expensive. Future product liability claims could be costly to 
defend and/or costly to resolve and could harm our reputation and business.

Sales and market acceptance of our products is dependent upon the coverage and reimbursement decisions 
made by third-party payors. The failure of third-party payors to provide appropriate levels of coverage and 
reimbursement for the use of our products and treatments facilitated by our products could harm our business 
and prospects.

Sales and market acceptance of our medical products and the treatments facilitated by our products in the United States 
and other countries is dependent upon the coverage decisions and reimbursement policies established by government 
healthcare  programs  and  private  health  insurers.  Market  acceptance  of  our  products  and  treatments  has  and  will 
continue to depend upon our customers’ ability to obtain an appropriate level of coverage for, and reimbursement 
from third-party payors for, these products and treatments. In the U.S., CMS establishes coverage and reimbursement 
policies for healthcare providers treating Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Under current CMS policies, varying 
reimbursement levels have been established for our products and treatments. Coverage policies for Medicare patients 
may  vary  by  regional  Medicare  carriers  in  the  absence  of  a  national  coverage  determination  and  reimbursement 
rates for treatments may vary based on the geographic price index. Coverage and reimbursement policies and rates 
applicable to patients with private insurance are dependent upon individual private payor decisions which may not 
follow the policies and rates established by CMS. The use of our products and treatments outside the United States 
is similarly affected by coverage and reimbursement policies adopted by foreign governments and private insurance 
carriers. We cannot provide assurance that government or private third-party payors will continue to reimburse for our 
products or services using the existing codes, nor can we provide assurance that the payment rates will be adequate. If 
providers and physicians are unable to obtain reimbursement for our products or services at cost-effective levels, this 
could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. In addition, in the event that the current coding 
and/or payment methodology for these products or services changes, this could have a material adverse effect on our 
business and business operations.

Our  business  is  dependent  upon  future  market  growth  of  full  field  digital  mammography  systems,  digital 
computer  aided  detection  products,  and  tomosynthesis  as  well  as  advanced  image  analysis  and  workflow 
solutions for use with MRI and CT and the market growth of electronic brachytherapy: this growth may not 
occur or may occur too slowly to benefit us.

Our future business is substantially dependent on the continued growth in the market for electronic brachytherapy, full 
field digital mammography systems, digital computer aided detection products and tomosynthesis as well as advanced image 
analysis and workflow solutions for use with MRI and CT. The market for these products may not continue to develop 
or may develop at a slower rate than we anticipate due to a variety of factors, including, general economic conditions, 
delays in hospital spending for capital equipment, the significant costs associated with the procurement of full field digital 
mammography systems and CAD products and MRI and CT systems and the reliance on third party insurance reimbursement. 
In addition, we may not be able to successfully develop or obtain FDA clearance for our proposed products. 

A limited number of customers account for a significant portion of our total revenue. The loss of a principal 
customer could seriously hurt our business.

Our principal sales distribution channel for our digital products is through our OEM partners which accounted for 36% 

15

 
of our total revenue in 2017, with one major customer, GE Healthcare at 25% of our revenue. In addition, six customers 
accounted for 37% of our total revenue, which includes both OEM partners and direct customers. A limited number of major 
customers have in the past and may continue in the future to account for a significant portion of our revenue. The loss of our 
relationships with principal customers or a decline in sales to principal customers could materially adversely affect 
our business and operating results.

The  markets  for  our  newly  developed  products  and  treatments  and  newly  introduced  enhancements  to  our 
existing products and treatments may not develop as expected.

The successful commercialization of our newly developed products and treatments and newly introduced enhancements 
to our existing products and treatments are subject to numerous risks, both known and unknown, including:

• 
• 

• 
• 

• 
• 

• 

uncertainty of the development of a market for such product or treatment;
trends  relating  to,  or  the  introduction  or  existence  of,  competing  products,  technologies  or  alternative 
treatments or therapies that may be more effective, safer or easier to use than our products, technologies, 
treatments or therapies;
the perceptions of our products or treatments as compared to other products and treatments;
recommendation  and  support  for  the  use  of  our  products  or  treatments  by  influential  customers,  such  as 
hospitals, radiological practices, breast surgeons and radiation oncologists and treatment centers;
the availability and extent of data demonstrating the clinical efficacy of our products or treatments;
competition, including the presence of competing products sold by companies with longer operating histories, 
more recognizable names and more established distribution networks; and
other technological developments.

Often, the development of a significant market for a product or treatment will depend upon the establishment of a 
reimbursement code or an appropriate reimbursement level for use of the product or treatment. Moreover, even if 
addressed,  such  reimbursement  codes  or  levels  frequently  are  not  established  until  after  a  product  or  treatment  is 
developed and commercially introduced, which can delay the successful commercialization of a product or treatment.

If we are unable to successfully commercialize and create a significant market for our newly developed products and 
treatments and newly introduced enhancements to our existing products and treatments, our business and prospects 
could be harmed.

If goodwill and/or other intangible assets that we have recorded in connection with our acquisitions become 
impaired, we could have to take significant charges against earnings.

In connection with the accounting for our acquisitions, we have recorded a significant amount of goodwill and other 
intangible assets. We have recorded multiple impairments: $26.8 million in September 2011, $14.0 million in June 
2015, $4.7 million in September 2017 and $2.0 million in December 2017. Under current accounting guidelines, we 
must assess, at least annually and potentially more frequently, whether the value of our goodwill of $8.4 million at 
December 31, 2017 and our other intangible assets have been impaired. Any reduction or impairment of the value of 
goodwill or other intangible assets will result in a charge against earnings which could materially adversely affect our 
reported results of operations in future periods.

The healthcare industry is highly regulated, and government authorities may determine that we have failed to 
comply with applicable laws, rules or regulations.

The  healthcare  industry  is  subject  to  extensive  and  complex  federal,  state  and  local  laws,  rules  and  regulations, 
compliance with which imposes substantial costs on us. Such laws and regulations include those that are directed 
at payment for services and the conduct of operations, preventing fraud and abuse, and prohibiting general business 
corporations,  such  as  ours,  from  engaging  in  practices  that  may  influence  professional  decision-making,  such  as 
splitting  fees  with  physicians.  Many  healthcare  laws  are  complex,  and  their  application  to  specific  services  and 
relationships  may  not  be  clear.  Further,  healthcare  laws  differ  from  state  to  state  and  it  is  difficult  to  ensure  our 
business complies with evolving laws in all states. In addition, we believe that our business will continue to be subject 
to increasing regulation, the scope and effect of which we cannot predict. Federal and state legislatures and agencies 
periodically consider proposals to revise or create additional statutory and regulatory requirements. Such proposals, 
if implemented, could impact our operations, the use of our services, and our ability to market new services, or could 
create unexpected liabilities for us.

We may in the future become the subject of regulatory or other investigations or proceedings, and our interpretations 
of applicable laws, rules and regulations may be challenged. For example, regulatory authorities or other parties may 
assert  that  our  arrangements  with  the  physician  practices  to  which  we  lease  equipment  and  provide  management 

16

services violate anti-kickback, fee splitting, or self-referral laws and regulations and could require us to restructure these 
arrangements, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, 
cash flows and the trading price of our common stock. Such investigations, proceedings and challenges could also 
result in substantial defense costs to us and a diversion of management’s time and attention. In addition, violations of 
these laws are punishable by monetary fines, civil and criminal penalties, exclusion from participation in government-
sponsored healthcare programs, and forfeiture of amounts collected in violation of such laws and regulations, any of 
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and 
the trading price of our common stock.

We  may  incur  substantial  costs  defending  our  interpretations  of  federal  and  state  government  regulations 
and if we lose, the government could force us to restructure our operations and subject us to fines, monetary 
penalties and possibly exclude us from participation in government-sponsored health care programs such as 
Medicare and Medicaid.

Our operations, including our arrangements with healthcare providers, are subject to extensive federal and state government 
regulation and are subject to audits, inquiries and investigations from government agencies from time to time. Those 
laws may have related rules and regulations that are subject to interpretation and may not provide definitive guidance as 
to their application to our operations, including our arrangements with physicians and professional corporations.

We believe we are in substantial compliance with these laws, rules and regulations based upon what we believe are 
reasonable and defensible interpretations of these laws, rules and regulations. However, federal and state laws are 
broadly worded and may be interpreted or applied by prosecutorial, regulatory or judicial authorities in ways that we 
cannot predict. Accordingly, our arrangements and business practices may be the subject of government scrutiny or be 
found to violate applicable laws. If federal or state government officials challenge our operations or arrangements with 
third parties that we have structured based upon our interpretation of these laws, rules and regulations, the challenge 
could potentially disrupt our business operations and we may incur substantial defense costs, even if we successfully 
defend our interpretation of these laws, rules and regulations. In addition, if the government successfully challenges 
our  interpretation  as  to  the  applicability  of  these  laws,  rules  and  regulations  as  they  relate  to  our  operations  and 
arrangements with third parties, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results 
of operations.

In the event regulatory action were to limit or prohibit us from carrying on our business as we presently conduct it or 
from expanding our operations into certain jurisdictions, we may need to make structural, operational and organizational 
modifications to our Company or our contractual arrangements with physicians and professional corporations. Our 
operating costs could increase significantly as a result. We could also lose contracts or our revenues could decrease 
under existing contracts. Any restructuring would also negatively impact our operations because our management’s 
time and attention would be diverted from running our business in the ordinary course.

Regulations related to “conflict minerals” may cause us to incur additional expenses and could limit the supply 
and increase the cost of certain metals used in manufacturing our products.

In August  2012,  the  SEC  adopted  a  rule  requiring  disclosures  of  specified  minerals,  known  as  conflict  minerals, 
that are necessary to the functionality or production of products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured by 
public companies. The conflict minerals rule requires companies annually to perform diligence, disclose and report 
whether or not such minerals originate from the Democratic Republic of Congo and other specified countries. The 
rule could affect sourcing at competitive prices and availability in sufficient quantities of certain minerals used in the 
manufacture of our products, including tungsten. The number of suppliers who provide conflict-free minerals may be 
limited. In addition, there may be material costs associated with complying with the disclosure requirements, such as 
costs related to determining the source of certain minerals used in our products, as well as costs of possible charges 
to products, processes or sources of supply as a consequence of such verification activities. Since our supply chain is 
complex, we may not be able to sufficiently verify the origins of the relevant minerals used in our products through 
the  due  diligence  procedures  that  we  implement,  which  may  harm  our  reputation.  In  addition,  we  may  encounter 
challenges to satisfy those customers who require that all of the components of our products be certified conflict-free, 
which could place us at a competitive disadvantage if we are unable to do so.

Compliance with the many laws and regulations governing the healthcare industry could restrict our sales and 
marketing practices, and exclusion from such programs as a result of a violation of these laws could have a 
material adverse effect on our business.

Once our products are sold, we must comply with various U.S. federal and state laws, rules and regulations pertaining 
to healthcare fraud and abuse, including false claims laws, anti-kickback laws and physician self-referral laws, rules 
and regulations. Violations of the fraud and abuse laws are punishable by criminal and civil sanctions, including, in 

17

some instances, exclusion from participation in federal and state healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, 
Veterans Administration health programs, workers’ compensation programs and TRICARE. Compliance with these 
laws could restrict our sales and marketing practices, and exclusion from such programs as a result of a violation of 
these laws could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Anti-Kickback Statutes

The  federal Anti-Kickback  Statute  prohibits  persons  from  knowingly  or  willfully  soliciting,  receiving,  offering  or 
paying remuneration, directly or indirectly, in exchange for or to induce:

•	

•	

the referral of an individual for a service or product for which payment may be made by Medicare, 
Medicaid or other government-sponsored healthcare program; or

purchasing, ordering, arranging for, or recommending the ordering of, any service or product for which 
payment may be made by a government-sponsored healthcare program.	

The Anti-Kickback Statute is broad and prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful in businesses outside 
of the healthcare industry. The statutory penalties for violating the Anti-Kickback Statute include imprisonment for up 
to five years and criminal fines of up to $25,000 per violation. In addition, through application of other laws, conduct 
that violates the Anti-Kickback Statute can also give rise to False Claims Act lawsuits, civil monetary penalties and 
possible exclusion from Medicare and Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs. In addition to the Federal 
Anti-Kickback Statute, many states have their own anti-kickback laws. Often, these laws closely follow the language 
of the federal law, although they do not always have the same scope, exceptions, safe harbors or sanctions. In some 
states, these anti-kickback laws apply not only to payment made by a government health care program but also with 
respect to other payers, including commercial insurance companies.

Government officials have focused recent kickback enforcement efforts on, among other things, the sales and marketing 
activities of healthcare companies, including medical device manufacturers, and recently have brought cases against 
individuals or entities with personnel who allegedly offered unlawful inducements to potential or existing customers 
in an attempt to procure their business. This trend is expected to continue. Settlements of these cases by healthcare 
companies have involved significant fines and/or penalties and in some instances criminal plea or deferred prosecution 
agreements.

Our relationships with healthcare providers and our marketing practices are subject to the federal Anti-Kickback 
Statute and similar state laws.

We are subject to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which prohibits the knowing and willful offer, payment, solicitation 
or receipt of any form of “remuneration” in return for, or to induce, the referral of business or ordering of services 
paid for by Medicare or other federal programs. “Remuneration” has been broadly interpreted to mean anything of 
value, including, for example, gifts, discounts, credit arrangements, and in-kind goods or services, as well as cash. 
Certain federal courts have held that the Anti-Kickback Statute can be violated if “one purpose” of a payment is to 
induce referrals. The Anti-Kickback Statute is broad and prohibits many arrangements and practices that are lawful 
in businesses outside of the healthcare industry. Violations of the Anti-Kickback Statute can result in imprisonment, 
civil or criminal fines or exclusion from Medicare and other governmental programs. Many states have adopted laws 
similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. Some of these state prohibitions apply to referral of patients for healthcare 
items or services reimbursed by any payor, not only the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Additionally, we could be 
subject to private actions brought pursuant to the False Claims Act’s “whistleblower” or “qui tam” provisions which, 
among other things, allege that our practices or relationships violate the Anti-Kickback Statute. The False Claims Act 
imposes liability on any person or entity that, among other things, knowingly presents, or causes to be presented, a 
false or fraudulent claim for payment by a federal healthcare program. The qui tam provisions of the False Claims 
Act allow a private individual to bring actions on behalf of the federal government alleging that the defendant has 
submitted a false claim to the federal government, and to share in any monetary recovery. In recent years, the number 
of suits brought by private individuals has increased dramatically. In addition, various states have enacted false claim 
laws analogous to the False Claims Act. Many of these state laws apply where a claim is submitted to any third-party 
payor and not merely a federal healthcare program.

Although we have attempted to structure our marketing initiatives and business relationships to comply with the Anti-
Kickback Statute, we cannot assure you that we will not have to defend against alleged violations from private or 
public entities or that the Office of Inspector General or other authorities will not find that our marketing practices and 
relationships violate the statute. If we are found to have violated the Anti-Kickback Statute or a similar state statute, 
we may be subject to civil and criminal penalties, including exclusion from the Medicare or Medicaid programs, or 
may be required to enter into settlement agreements with the government to avoid such sanctions. Typically, such 

18

settlement agreements require substantial payments to the government in exchange for the government to release its 
claims, and may also require us to enter into a Corporate Integrity Agreement.

Physician Self-Referral Laws

The  federal  ban  on  physician  self-referrals,  commonly  known  as  the  “Stark  Law,”  prohibits,  subject  to  certain 
exceptions, physician referrals of Medicare and Medicaid patients to an entity providing certain “designated health 
services” if the physician or an immediate family member of the physician has any financial relationship with the 
entity. The Stark Law also prohibits the entity receiving the referral from billing for any good or service furnished 
pursuant to an unlawful referral, and any person collecting any amounts in connection with an unlawful referral is 
obligated to refund these amounts. A person who engages in a scheme to circumvent the Stark Law’s referral prohibition 
may be fined up to $100,000 for each such arrangement or scheme. The penalties for violating the Stark Law also 
include civil monetary penalties of up to $15,000 per service, could result in denial of payment, disgorgements of 
reimbursement received under a non-compliant agreement, and possible exclusion from Medicare, Medicaid or other 
federal healthcare programs. In addition to the Stark Law, many states have their own self-referral laws. Often, these 
laws closely follow the language of the federal law, although they do not always have the same scope, exceptions, safe 
harbors or sanctions. In some states these self-referral laws apply not only to payment made by a federal health care 
program but also with respect to other payers, including commercial insurance companies. In addition, some state laws 
require physicians to disclose any financial interest they may have with a healthcare provider to their patients when 
referring patients to that provider even if the referral itself is not prohibited.

If  we  fail  to  comply  with  federal  and  state  physician  self-referral  laws  and  regulations  as  they  are  currently 
interpreted  or  may  be  interpreted  in  the  future,  or  if  other  legislative  restrictions  are  issued,  we  could  incur  a 
significant loss of revenue and be subject to significant monetary penalties, which could have a material adverse 
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to federal and state laws and regulations that limit the circumstances under which physicians who have 
a financial relationship with entities that furnish certain specified healthcare services may refer to such entities for the 
provision of such services, including clinical laboratory services, radiology and other imaging services and certain 
other diagnostic services. These laws and regulations also prohibit such entities from billing for services provided in 
violation of the laws and regulations.

We have financial relationships with physicians in the form of equipment leases and services arrangements. While we 
believe our arrangements with physicians are in material compliance with applicable laws and regulations, government 
authorities might take a contrary position or prohibited referrals may occur. Further, because we cannot be certain 
that we will have knowledge of all physicians who may hold an indirect ownership interest, referrals from any such 
physicians may cause us to violate these laws and regulations.

Violation of these laws and regulations may result in the prohibition of payment for services rendered, significant 
fines  and  penalties,  and  exclusion  from  Medicare,  Medicaid  and  other  federal  and  state  healthcare  programs,  any 
of  which  could  have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  our  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of  operations.  In 
addition, expansion of our operations to new jurisdictions, new interpretations of laws in our existing jurisdictions, 
or new physician self-referral laws could require structural and organizational modifications of our relationships with 
physicians to comply with those jurisdictions’ laws. Such structural and organizational modifications could result in 
lower profitability and failure to achieve our growth objectives.

False Claims Laws

The federal False Claims Act, or FCA, prohibits any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a 
false claim or knowingly making, or causing to made, a false statement to obtain payment from the federal government. 
Those found in violation of the FCA can be subject to fines and penalties of three times the damages sustained by the 
government, plus mandatory civil penalties of between $5,000 and $10,000 (adjusted for inflation) for each separate 
false claim. Actions filed under the FCA can be brought by any individual on behalf of the government, a “qui tam” 
action, and this individual, known as a “relator” or, more commonly, as a “whistleblower,” may share in any amounts 
paid by the entity to the government in damages and penalties or by way of settlement. In addition, certain states 
have enacted laws modeled after the FCA, and this legislative activity is expected to increase. Qui tam actions have 
increased significantly in recent years, causing greater numbers of healthcare companies, including medical device 
manufacturers, to defend false claim actions, pay damages and penalties or be excluded from Medicare, Medicaid or 
other federal or state healthcare programs as a result of investigations arising out of such actions.

19

 
Increased Regulatory Scrutiny of Relationships with Healthcare Providers

Certain state governments and the federal government have enacted legislation, including the Physician Payments 
Sunshine Act provisions under the Federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, aimed at increasing transparency 
of our interactions with healthcare providers. As a result, we are required by law to disclose payments, gifts, and other 
transfers of value to certain healthcare providers in certain states and to the federal government. Any failure to comply 
with these legal and regulatory requirements could result in a range of fines, penalties, and/or sanctions, and could 
affect our business. In addition, we have devoted and will continue to devote substantial time and financial resources 
to develop and implement enhanced structure, policies, systems and processes to comply with these enhanced legal 
and regulatory requirements, which may also impact our business.

Third-Party Reimbursement

Because we expect to receive payment for our products directly from our customers, we do not anticipate relying 
directly on payment for any of our products from third-party payers, such as Medicare, Medicaid, commercial health 
insurers and managed care companies. However, our business will be affected by coverage policies adopted by federal 
and state governmental authorities, such as Medicare and Medicaid, as well as private payers, which often follow 
the  coverage  policies  of  these  public  programs.  Such  policies  may  affect  which  products  customers  purchase  and 
the prices they are willing to pay for those products in a particular jurisdiction. For example, our business will be 
indirectly impacted by the ability of a hospital or medical facility to obtain coverage and third-party reimbursement for 
procedures performed using our products. These third-party payers may deny coverage if they determine that a device 
used in a procedure was not medically necessary, was not used in accordance with cost-effective treatment methods, 
as determined by the third-party payer, or was used for an unapproved indication. They may also pay an inadequate 
amount for the procedure which could cause healthcare providers to use a lower cost competitor’s device or perform 
a medical procedure without our device.

Reimbursement decisions by particular third-party payers depend upon a number of factors, including each third-party 
payer’s determination that use of a product is:

a covered benefit under its health plan;
appropriate and medically necessary for the specific indication;
cost effective; and

• 
•  
•  
•   neither experimental nor investigational.

Many third-party payers use coverage decisions and payment amounts determined by the Centers for Medicare and 
Medicaid Services, or CMS, which administers the U.S. Medicare program, as guidelines in setting their coverage 
and reimbursement policies. Medicare periodically reviews its reimbursement practices for various products. As a 
result, there is no certainty as to the future Medicare reimbursement rate for our products. In addition, those third-
party payers that do not follow the CMS guidelines may adopt different coverage and reimbursement policies for our 
current and future products. It is possible that some third-party payers will not offer any coverage for our current or 
future products.

Furthermore, the healthcare industry in the United States is increasingly focused on cost containment as government 
and private insurers seek to control healthcare costs by imposing lower payment rates and negotiating reduced contract 
rates with third-party payers. If third-party payers deny coverage or reduce their current levels of payment, or if our 
production costs increase faster than increases in reimbursement levels, we may be unable to sell our products on a 
profitable basis.

Healthcare reform legislation in the United States may adversely affect our business and/or results of operations.

In March 2010, significant reforms to the U.S. healthcare system were adopted in the form of the Patient Protection 
and Affordable Care Act (the “PPACA”). The PPACA includes provisions that, among other things, reduce and/or 
limit Medicare reimbursement, require all individuals to have health insurance (with limited exceptions) and impose 
new and/or increased taxes. Specifically, beginning in 2013, the medical device industry was required to subsidize 
healthcare reform in the form of a 2.3% excise tax on United States sales of most medical devices. In December 2015, 
as part of the Omnibus Appropriations Act, collection of the medical device excise tax was suspended thru 2017. That 
postponement has been extended again for 2018 and 2019. We are unable to predict whether the postponement will 
be continued beyond 2019. While the PPACA is intended to expand health insurance coverage to uninsured persons 
in the United States, other elements of this legislation, such as Medicare provisions aimed at improving quality and 
decreasing  costs,  comparative  effectiveness  research,  an  independent  payment  advisory  board,  and  pilot  programs 
to  evaluate  alternative  payment  methodologies,  make  it  difficult  to  determine  the  overall  impact  on  sales  of,  and 
reimbursement  for,  our  products. We  are  unable  to  predict  what  additional  legislation  or  regulation  relating  to  the 

20

 
 
 
 
health  care  industry  or  third-party  coverage  and  reimbursement  may  be  enacted  in  the  future  or  what  effect  such 
legislation  or  regulation  would  have  on  our  business. Any  cost  containment  measures  or  other  health  care  system 
reforms that are adopted could have a material and adverse effect on our ability to commercialize our existing and 
future products successfully.

Healthcare industry consolidation could impose pressure on our prices, reduce potential customer base and 
reduce demands for our systems.

Many hospitals and imaging centers have consolidated to create larger healthcare enterprises with greater market and 
purchasing power. If this consolidation trend continues, it could reduce the size of our potential customer base and 
give the resulting enterprises greater bargaining or purchasing power, which may lead to erosion of the prices for our 
systems or decreased margins for our systems. In addition, when hospitals and imaging centers combine, they often 
consolidate infrastructure, and consolidation of our customers could result in fewer overall customers.

Our products and manufacturing facilities are subject to extensive regulation with potentially significant costs 
for compliance.

Our CAD systems for the computer aided detection of cancer and Axxent eBx systems are medical devices subject 
to extensive regulation by the FDA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. In addition, our manufacturing 
operations are subject to FDA regulation and we are also subject to FDA regulations covering labeling, adverse event 
reporting, and the FDA’s general prohibition against promoting products for unapproved or off-label uses.

Our failure to fully comply with applicable regulations could result in the issuance of warning letters, non-approvals, 
suspensions of existing approvals, civil penalties and criminal fines, product seizures and recalls, operating restrictions, 
injunctions,  and  criminal  prosecution.  Moreover,  unanticipated  changes  in  existing  regulatory  requirements  or 
adoption of new requirements could increase our application, operating and compliance burdens and adversely affect 
our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Sales  of  our  products  in  certain  countries  outside  of  the  U.S.  are  also  subject  to  extensive  regulatory  approvals. 
Obtaining and maintaining foreign regulatory approvals is an expensive and time-consuming process. We cannot be 
certain that we will be able to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals timely or at all in any foreign country in which 
we plan to market our CAD products and Axxent eBx systems, and if we fail to receive such approvals, our ability to 
generate revenue may be significantly diminished.

We may not be able to obtain regulatory approval for any of the other products that we may consider developing.

We have received FDA approvals for our currently offered products. Before we are able to commercialize any new 
product, we must obtain regulatory approvals for each indicated use for that product. The process for satisfying these 
regulatory requirements is lengthy and costly and will require us to comply with complex standards for research and 
development, clinical trials, testing, manufacturing, quality control, labeling, and promotion of products.

Our products may be recalled even after we have received FDA or other governmental approval or clearance.

If the safety or efficacy of any of our products is called into question, the FDA and similar governmental authorities in 
other countries may require us to recall our products, even if our product received approval or clearance by the FDA or 
a similar governmental body. Such a recall would divert the focus of our management and our financial resources and 
could materially and adversely affect our reputation with customers and our financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to criminal or civil sanctions if we fail to comply with privacy regulations regarding the use 
and disclosure of sensitive personally identifiable information. 

Numerous state and federal laws and regulations govern the collection, dissemination, use, privacy, confidentiality, 
security, availability and integrity of personally identifiable information, including The Health Insurance Portability 
and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, and the regulations that have been issued thereunder (“HIPAA”). In the 
provision of services to our customers, we and our third-party vendors may collect, use, maintain and transmit patient 
health information in ways that are subject to many of these laws and regulations.

Our customers are covered entities, and we are a business associate of our customers under HIPAA as a result of our 
contractual obligations to perform certain functions on behalf of and provide certain services to those customers. If we 
or any of our subcontractors experience a breach of the privacy or security of patient information, the breach reporting 
requirements and the liability for business associates under HIPAA could result in substantial financial liability and 
reputational harm.

21

Federal and state consumer laws are being applied increasingly by the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys 
general to regulate the collection, use and disclosure of personal or patient health information, through web sites or 
otherwise, and to regulate the presentation of web site content. Numerous other federal and state laws protect the 
confidentiality, privacy, availability, integrity and security of personally identifiable information. These laws in many 
cases are more restrictive than, and not preempted by, HIPAA and may be subject to varying interpretations by courts 
and  government  agencies,  creating  complex  compliance  issues  for  us  and  our  customers  and  potentially  exposing 
us to additional expense, adverse publicity and liability. We may not remain in compliance with the diverse privacy 
requirements in all of the jurisdictions in which we do business.

HIPAA and federal and state laws and regulations may require users of personally identifiable information to implement 
specified security measures. Evolving laws and regulations in this area could require us to incur significant additional 
costs to re-design our products in a timely manner to reflect these legal requirements, which could have an adverse 
impact on our results of operations.

New personally identifiable information standards, whether implemented pursuant to HIPAA, congressional action 
or otherwise, could have a significant effect on the manner in which we must handle healthcare related data, and the 
cost of complying with standards could be significant. If we do not properly comply with existing or new laws and 
regulations related to patient health information, we could be subject to criminal or civil sanctions. 

If our security measures are breached or fail and unauthorized access is obtained to a customer’s data, our service may 
be perceived as insecure, the attractiveness of our services to current or potential customers may be reduced, and we 
may incur significant liabilities.

Our  services  involve  the  storage  and  transmission  of  customers’  proprietary  information  and  patient  information, 
including  health,  financial,  payment  and  other  personal  or  confidential  information.  We  rely  on  proprietary  and 
commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring, as well as other processes, to provide security for 
processing, transmission and storage of such information. Because of the sensitivity of this information and due to 
requirements under applicable laws and regulations, the effectiveness of such security efforts is very important. If 
our security measures are breached or fail as a result of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, 
someone may be able to obtain unauthorized access to customer or patient data. Improper activities by third-parties, 
advances in computer and software capabilities and encryption technology, new tools and discoveries and other events 
or developments may facilitate or result in a compromise or breach of our computer systems. Techniques used to obtain 
unauthorized access or to sabotage systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against 
a target, and we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or fail to implement adequate preventive measures. Our 
security measures may not be effective in preventing such unauthorized access. If a breach of our security occurs, we 
could face damages for contract breach, penalties for violation of applicable laws or regulations, possible lawsuits 
by individuals affected by the breach and significant remediation costs and efforts to prevent future occurrences. In 
addition, whether there is an actual or a perceived breach of our security, the market perception of the effectiveness of 
our security measures could be harmed and we could lose current or potential customers.

Data protection laws in Europe and around the world may restrict our activities and increase our costs. 

Various statutes and rules in Europe and around the world regulate privacy and data protection which may affect our 
collection, use, storage, and transfer of information both abroad and in the United States. New laws and regulations 
are being enacted, so that this area remains in a state of flux. Monitoring and complying with these laws requires 
substantial financial resources. Failure to comply with these laws may result in, among other things, civil and criminal 
liability, negative publicity, restrictions on further use of data, and/or liability under contractual warranties. In addition, 
changes in these laws (including newly released interpretations of these laws by courts and regulatory bodies) may 
limit our data access, use and disclosure, and may require increased expenditures by us. 

The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), will take effect in May 2018 and will require 
us to meet new and more stringent requirements regarding the handling of personal data about EU residents. Failure 
to meet the GDPR requirements could result in penalties of up to 4% of worldwide revenue.

Our effective tax rate may fluctuate and we may incur obligations in tax jurisdictions in excess of amounts that 
have been accrued. 

As a global company, we are subject to taxation in numerous countries, states and other jurisdictions. In preparing our 
financial statements, we record the amount of tax payable in each of the countries, states and other jurisdictions in which 
we operate. Our future effective tax rate, however, may be lower or higher than prior years due to numerous factors, 
including a change in our geographic earnings mix, changes in the measurement of our deferred taxes, and recently 
enacted and future tax law changes in jurisdictions in which we operate. We are also subject to ongoing tax audits in 

22

various jurisdictions, and tax authorities may disagree with certain positions we have taken and assess additional taxes. 
Any of these factors could cause us to experience an effective tax rate significantly different from previous periods or 
our current expectations, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Changes in interpretation or application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles may adversely affect our 
operating results.

We prepare our financial statements to conform to GAAP. These principles are subject to interpretation by the Financial 
Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”), American  Institute  of  Certified  Public Accountants,  the  SEC  and  various 
other regulatory or accounting bodies. A change in interpretations of, or our application of, these principles can have a 
significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change 
is announced. In addition, when we are required to adopt new accounting standards, our methods of accounting for 
certain items may change, which could cause our results of operations to fluctuate from period to period and make it 
more difficult to compare our financial results to prior periods.

As our operations evolve over time, we may introduce new products or new technologies that require us to apply 
different accounting principles, including ones regarding revenue recognition, than we have applied in past periods. 
The application of different types of accounting principles and related potential changes may make it more difficult 
to compare our financial results from quarter to quarter, and the trading price of our common stock could suffer or 
become more volatile as a result.

Our acquisitions involve risks.

We have completed acquisitions in the past and we may make acquisitions in the future. Such transactions involve 
numerous risks, including possible adverse effects on our operating results or the market price of our common stock. 
Some of the potential risks involved with acquisitions are the following:

• 
• 
• 

• 

difficulty in realizing anticipated financial or strategic benefits of such acquisition;
diversion of capital and potential dilution of stockholder ownership;
the risks related to increased indebtedness, as well as the risk such financing will not be available on 
satisfactory terms or at all;
diversion of management’s attention and other resources from current operations, including potential 
strain on financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures;

•  management of employee relations across facilities;
• 

• 

• 

• 

difficulties in the assimilation of different corporate cultures and practices, as well as in the 
assimilation and retention of broad and geographically dispersed personnel and operations;
difficulties and unanticipated expenses related to the integration of departments, systems (including 
accounting systems), technologies, books and records, procedures and controls (including internal 
accounting controls, procedures and policies), as well as in maintaining uniform standards, including 
environmental management systems;
assumption of known and unknown liabilities, some of which may be difficult or impossible to 
quantify;
inability to realize cost savings, sales increases or other benefits that we anticipate from such 
acquisitions, either as to amount or in the expected time frame;
non-cash impairment charges or other accounting charges relating to the acquired assets; and

• 
•  maintaining strong relationships with our and our acquired companies’ customers after the acquisitions.

If  our  integration  efforts  are  not  successful,  we  may  not  be  able  to  maintain  the  levels  of  revenues,  earnings  or 
operating efficiency that we and the acquired companies achieved or might achieve separately.

Our acquisitions may not result in the benefits and revenue growth we expect.

We integrate companies that we acquire including the operations, services, products and personnel of each company 
within  our  management  policies,  procedures  and  strategies.  We  cannot  be  sure  that  we  will  achieve  the  benefits 
of  revenue  growth  that  we  expect  from  these  acquisitions or  that  we  will  not  incur  unforeseen  additional costs  or 
expenses in connection with these acquisitions. To effectively manage our expected future growth, we must continue 
to successfully manage our integration of these companies and continue to improve our operational systems, internal 
procedures, working capital management, and financial and operational controls. If we fail in any of these areas, our 
business could be adversely affected.

Our quarterly and annual operating and financial results and our gross margins are likely to fluctuate 
significantly in future periods. 

23

Our quarterly and annual operating and financial results are difficult to predict and may fluctuate significantly from 
period to period. Our revenue and results of operations may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors that are outside 
of our control including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, the timing of orders from our OEM partners, 
our  OEM  partners  ability  to  manufacture  and  ship  their  digital  mammography  systems,  our  timely  receipt  by  the 
FDA for the clearance to market our products, our ability to timely engage other OEM partners for the sale of our 
products, the timing of product enhancements and new product introductions by us or our competitors, the pricing of 
our products, changes in customers’ budgets, competitive conditions and the possible deferral of revenue under our 
revenue recognition policies.

The markets for many of our products are subject to changing technology.

The markets for many products we sell are subject to changing technology, new product introductions and product 
enhancements,  and  evolving  industry  standards.  The  introduction  or  enhancement  of  products  embodying  new 
technology or the emergence of new industry standards could render our existing products obsolete or result in short 
product life cycles or our inability to sell our products without offering a significant discount. Accordingly, our ability 
to compete is in part dependent on our ability to continually offer enhanced and improved products.

If we are unable to successfully introduce new technology solutions or services or fail to keep pace with advances in 
technology, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

Our  business  depends  on  our  ability  to  adapt  to  evolving  technologies  and  industry  standards  and  introduce  new 
technology solutions and services accordingly. If we cannot adapt to changing technologies, our technology solutions 
and services may become obsolete, and our business would suffer. Because the healthcare information technology 
market  is  constantly  evolving,  our  existing  technology  may  become  obsolete  and  fail  to  meet  the  requirements  of 
current and potential customers. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to enhance our existing 
technology solutions and services, develop new technology that addresses the increasingly sophisticated and varied 
needs  of  our  customers,  and  respond  to  technological  advances  and  emerging  industry  standards  and  practices  on 
a  timely  and  cost-effective  basis. The  development  of  our  proprietary  technology  entails  significant  technical  and 
business risks. We may not be successful in developing, using, marketing, selling, or maintaining new technologies 
effectively or adapting our proprietary technology to evolving customer requirements or emerging industry standards, 
and, as a result, our business and reputation could suffer. We may not be able to introduce new technology solutions 
on  schedule,  or  at  all,  or  such  solutions  may  not  achieve  market  acceptance.  Moreover,  competitors  may  develop 
competitive products that could adversely affect our results of operations. A failure by us to introduce new products or 
to introduce these products on schedule could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results 
of operations.

We depend upon a limited number of suppliers and manufacturers for our products, and certain components 
in our products may be available from a sole or limited number of suppliers.

Our products are generally either manufactured and assembled for us by a sole manufacturer, by a limited number of 
manufacturers or assembled by us from supplies we obtain from a limited number of suppliers. Critical components 
required to manufacture our products, whether by outside manufacturers or directly by us, may be available from a 
sole or limited number of component suppliers. We generally do not have long-term arrangements with any of our 
manufacturers  or  suppliers. The  loss  of  a  sole  or  key  manufacturer  or  supplier  could  materially impair  our  ability 
to deliver products to our customers in a timely manner and would adversely affect our sales and operating results. 
Our business would be harmed if any of our manufacturers or suppliers could not meet our quality and performance 
specifications and quantity and delivery requirements. 

We distribute our products in highly competitive markets and our sales may suffer as a result.

We  operate  in  highly  competitive  and  rapidly  changing  markets  that  contain  competitive  products  available  from 
nationally and internationally recognized companies. Many of these competitors have significantly greater financial, 
technical and human resources than us and are well established. In addition, some companies have developed or may 
develop technologies or products that could compete with the products we manufacture and distribute or that would 
render our products obsolete or noncompetitive. Our competitors may achieve patent protection, regulatory approval, 
or product commercialization that would limit our ability to compete with them. These and other competitive pressures 
could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Disruptions in service or damage to our third-party providers’ data centers could adversely affect our business.

We rely on third-parties who provide access to data centers. Our information technologies and systems are vulnerable 
to damage or interruption from various causes, including (i) acts of God and other natural disasters, war and acts of 

24

terrorism and (ii) power losses, computer systems failures, internet and telecommunications or data network failures, 
operator error, losses of and corruption of data and similar events. We conduct business continuity planning and work 
with our third-party providers to protect against fires, floods, other natural disasters and general business interruptions 
to mitigate the adverse effects of a disruption, relocation or change in operating environment at the data centers we 
utilize. In addition, the occurrence of any of these events could result in interruptions, delays or cessations in service to 
our customers. Any of these events could impair or prohibit our ability to provide our services, reduce the attractiveness 
of our services to current or potential customers and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.

In  addition,  despite  the  implementation  of  security  measures,  our  infrastructure,  data  centers,  or  systems  that  we 
interface with, including the Internet and related systems, may be vulnerable to physical break-ins, hackers, improper 
employee or contractor access, computer viruses, programming errors, denial-of-service attacks or other attacks by 
third-parties seeking to disrupt operations or misappropriate information or similar physical or electronic breaches of 
security. Any of these can cause system failure, including network, software or hardware failure, which can result in 
service disruptions. As a result, we may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against 
security breaches and hackers or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches.

If our products fail to perform properly due to errors or similar problems, our business could suffer.

Complex software, may contain defects or errors, some of which may remain undetected for a period of time. It is 
possible that such errors may be found after the introduction of new software or enhancements to existing software. 
We continually introduce new solutions and enhancements to our solutions, and, despite testing by us, it is possible 
that errors may occur in our software. If we detect any errors before we introduce a solution, we might have to delay 
deployment  for  an  extended  period  of  time  while  we  address  the  problem.  If  we  do  not  discover  software  errors 
that  affect  our  new  or  current  solutions  or  enhancements  until  after  they  are  deployed,  we  would  need  to  provide 
enhancements to correct such errors. Errors in our software could result in:

• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 
• 

harm to our reputation;
lost sales;
delays in commercial releases;
product liability claims;
delays in or loss of market acceptance of our solutions;
license terminations or renegotiations;
unexpected expenses and diversion of resources to remedy errors; and
privacy and security vulnerabilities.

Furthermore, our customers might use our software together with products from other companies or those that they 
have developed internally. As a result, when problems occur, it might be difficult to identify the source of the problem. 
Even when our software does not cause these problems, the existence of these errors might cause us to incur significant 
costs, divert the attention of our technical personnel from our solution development efforts; impact our reputation and 
cause significant customer relations problems.

We cannot be certain of the future effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting or the impact 
of the same on our operations or the market price for our common stock.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”), we are required to include in our Annual 
Report on Form 10-K our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. We have 
dedicated a significant amount of time and resources to ensure compliance with this legislation for the year ended 
December 31, 2017 and will continue to do so for future fiscal periods. Although we believe that we currently have 
adequate internal control procedures in place, we cannot be certain that future material changes to our internal controls 
over financial reporting will be effective. If we cannot adequately maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls 
over financial reporting, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC. 
Any such action could adversely affect our financial results and the market price of our common stock.

An inability to meet the requirements of Section 404 could adversely affect investor confidence and, as a result, 
our stock price.

We  are  required  to  comply  with  the  requirements  of  Section  404. Although  we  have  implemented  procedures  to 
comply with the requirements of Section 404, there is no assurance that we will continue to meet the requirements. 
Failure to meet the ongoing requirements of Section 404, our inability to comply with Section 404’s requirements, 
and the costs of ongoing compliance could have a material adverse effect on investor confidence and our stock price.

Our future prospects depend on our ability to retain current key employees and attract additional qualified 
personnel.

25

 
 
Our success depends in large part on the continued service of our executive officers and other key employees. We may 
not be able to retain the services of our executive officers and other key employees. The loss of executive officers or 
other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on us.

In addition, in order to support our continued growth, we will be required to effectively recruit, develop and retain 
additional qualified personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain additional necessary personnel, it could delay or 
hinder our plans for growth. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that we will 
be able to successfully attract, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel. The failure to retain and attract 
necessary personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our international operations expose us to various risks, any number of which could harm our business. 

Our revenue from sales outside of the United States represented approximately 14% of our revenue for 2017. We are subject to 
the risks inherent in conducting business across national boundaries, any one of which could adversely impact our business. In 
addition to currency fluctuations, these risks include, among other things: economic downturns; changes in or interpretations 
of local law, governmental policy or regulation; restrictions on the transfer of funds into or out of the country; varying tax 
systems; and government protectionism. One or more of the foregoing factors could impair our current or future operations 
and, as a result, harm our overall business. 

The  market  price  of  our  common  stock  has  been,  and  may  continue  to  be  volatile,  which  could  reduce  the 
market price of our common stock.

The publicly traded shares of our common stock have experienced, and may experience in the future, significant price 
and volume fluctuations. This market volatility could reduce the market price of our common stock without regard to 
our operating performance. In addition, the trading price of our common stock could change significantly in response 
to actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results, announcements by us or our competitors, factors 
affecting the medical imaging industry generally, changes in national or regional economic conditions, changes in 
securities analysts’ estimates for us or our competitors’ or industry’s future performance or general market conditions, 
making it more difficult for shares of our common stock to be sold at a favorable price or at all. The market price of 
our common stock could also be reduced by general market price declines or market volatility in the future or future 
declines or volatility in the prices of stocks for companies in our industry.

A substantial number of shares of our common stock are eligible for future sale, and the sale of shares of common 
stock into the market, or the perception that such sales may occur, may depress our stock price. 

Sales of substantial additional shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales may occur, 
may significantly lower the market price of our common stock. We are unable to estimate the amount, timing or nature of 
future sales of shares of our common stock. We have previously issued a substantial number of shares of common stock, 
which are eligible for resale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and may become 
freely tradable. We have also registered shares that are issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants. If holders of options 
or warrants choose to exercise their securities and sell shares of common stock issued upon the exercise in the public market, 
or if holders of currently restricted common stock choose to sell such shares of common stock in the public market under Rule 
144 or otherwise, or attempt to publicly sell such shares all at once or in a short time period, the prevailing market price for 
our common stock may decline.

Future issuances of shares of our common stock may cause significant dilution of equity interests of existing 
holders of common stock and decrease the market price of shares of our common stock.

We have previously issued options that are exercisable into a significant number of shares of our common stock. Should 
existing holders of options exercise their securities into shares of our common stock, it may cause significant dilution 
of equity interests of existing holders of our common stock and reduce the market price of shares of our common stock.

Provisions in our corporate charter and in Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire 
us, discourage a takeover and adversely affect existing stockholders. 

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock. 
The  preferred  stock  may  be  issued  in  one  or  more  series,  the  terms  of  which  may  be  determined  at  the  time  of 
issuance by our Board of Directors, without further action by stockholders, and may include, among other things, 
voting rights (including the right to vote as a series on particular matters), preferences as to dividends and liquidation, 
conversion and redemption rights, and sinking fund provisions. Although there are currently no shares of preferred 
stock outstanding, future holders of preferred stock may have rights superior to our common stock and such rights 
could also be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell our assets to a third party.

26

 
We are also subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which could prevent 
us from engaging in a “business combination” with a 15% or greater stockholder” for a period of three years from the 
date such person acquired that status unless appropriate board or stockholder approvals are obtained. 

These provisions could deter unsolicited takeovers or delay or prevent changes in our control or management, including 
transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over the then current market 
price. These provisions may also limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in 
their best interests.

Changes  in  credit  markets  or  to  our  credit  rating  could  impact  our  ability  to  obtain  financing  for  business 
operations or result in increased borrowing costs and interest expense. 

Our credit ratings reflect each credit rating agency’s then opinion of our financial strength, operating performance and 
ability to meet our debt obligations. We utilize the short- and long-term debt markets to obtain capital from time to 
time. Adverse changes in our credit ratings may result in increased borrowing costs for future long-term debt or short-
term borrowing facilities and may limit financing options, including access to the unsecured borrowing market. We 
may also be subject to additional restrictive covenants that would reduce flexibility. Macroeconomic conditions, such 
as continued or increased volatility or disruption in the credit markets, may adversely affect our ability to refinance 
existing debt or obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures or to fund new acquisitions.

Our existing and future debt obligations could impair our liquidity and financial condition, and in the event we 
are unable to meet our debt obligations the lenders could foreclose on our assets. 

In connection with our Loan and Security Agreement entered into on August 7, 2017, as amended by that certain First 
Loan Modification Agreement entered into on March 22, 2018 (the “Loan Agreement”), Silicon Valley Bank agreed to 
provide $13 million in financing to the Company, with Silicon Valley Bank making revolving loans to the Company 
in the principal amount of up to $4 million and providing a term loan facility up to $9 million to be drawn in two 
tranches. Our debt obligations:

•  Could impair our liquidity;
•  Could make it more difficult for us to satisfy our other obligations;
•  Require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to payments on our debt obligations, which 
reduces the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate 
requirements;

•  Impose  restrictions  on  our  ability  to  incur  indebtedness,  other  than  permitted  indebtedness,  and  could 
impede  us  from  obtaining  additional  financing  in  the  future  for  working  capital,  capital  expenditures, 
mergers, acquisitions and general corporate purposes;

•  Impose restrictions on us with respect to the use of our available cash, including in connection with future 

acquisitions;

•  Require us to maintain net revenues ranging from $10.25 million to $14.0 million for each calendar quarter 
ended until December 31, 2017 and maintain minimum Detection revenues ranging from $8.622 million to 
$9.517 million for each calendar quarter ended until December 31, 2018;

•	 Require us to maintain adjusted EBITDA ranging from negative $4.5 million to $1.00 as of the last day of 

each calendar quarter until December 31, 2018;

•  Require us to agree with Silicon Valley Bank and provide all necessary financial information in connection 
with minimum detection revenue levels for the periods following December 31, 2018 by a defined date or 
the indebtedness under the Loan Agreement shall be accelerated to April 30 of the applicable following 
year;

•  Make us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business prospects and could limit our flexibility 

to plan for, or react to, changes in our licensing markets;

•  Could result in a prepayment premium if we elected to prepay the indebtedness under the Loan Agreement 

prior to the maturity date; and

•  Could place us at a competitive disadvantage when compared to our competitors who have less debt.

We have pledged substantially all of our assets to secure our obligations under the Loan Agreement, excluding any 
intellectual property. In the event that we were to fail in the future to make any required payment under the Loan 
Agreement or fail to comply with the financial and operating covenants contained in the Loan Agreement, in some 
cases subject to applicable cure periods, we would be in default regarding the indebtedness. A debt default would 
enable the lenders to foreclose on the assets securing such debt and could significantly diminish the market value 
and  marketability  of  our  common  stock  and  could  result  in  the  acceleration  of  the  payment  obligations  under  our 
indebtedness.

Properties.

The Company’s executive offices are leased pursuant to a five-year lease (the “Lease”) that commenced on December 
15, 2006, with renewals in January 2012 and August 2016, referred to as the August 2016 Lease Renewal, consisting of 
approximately 11,000 square feet of office space located at 98 Spit Brook Road, Suite 100 in Nashua, New Hampshire 
(the “Premises”). The August 2016 Lease renewal provides for an annual base rent of $184,518 for the period from 
March 2017 to February 2020. Additionally, the Company is required to pay its proportionate share of the building and 
real estate tax expenses and obtain insurance for the Premises.

The Company leases a facility consisting of approximately 24,350 square feet of office, manufacturing and warehousing 
space located at 101 Nicholson Lane, San Jose, CA. The operating lease commenced September 2012 and provided 
for an annual payment of $295,140 through September 2017 in equal monthly installments. In September 2016, the 
Company extended this lease for the period from October 2017 to March 2020 with annual payments of $540,588 from 
October 2017 to September 2018, $558,120 from October 2018 to September 2019 and $286,368 for the period from 
October 2019 to March 2020, with all amounts payable in equal monthly installments. Additionally, the Company is 
required to pay its proportionate share of the building and real estate tax expenses and obtain insurance for the facility.

In addition to the foregoing leases relating to its principal properties, the Company also has a lease for an additional 
facility in Nashua, New Hampshire used for product repairs, manufacturing and warehousing.

If the Company is required to seek additional or replacement facilities, it believes there are adequate facilities available 
at commercially reasonable rates.

Item 3.   

Legal Proceedings. 

The Company may be a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of its business. 
Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company currently 
believes that there are no current proceedings or claims pending against it of which the ultimate resolution would have 
a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, should we fail to prevail in any 
legal matter or should several legal matters be resolved against us in the same reporting period, such matters could 
have a material adverse effect on our operating results and cash flows for that particular period. In all cases, at each 
reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable 
and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

As of March 12, 2018, there were 235 holders of record of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company 
believes that there are in excess of 3,300 holders of its common stock whose shares are held in “street name”.

The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock to date, and the Company does not expect to 
pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Future dividend policy will depend on the Company’s earnings, capital 
requirements, financial condition, and other factors considered relevant by the Company’s Board of Directors. There 
are no non-statutory restrictions on the Company’s present ability to pay dividends.

Results of Operations

Overview

iCAD, Inc. is an industry-leading provider of advanced image analysis, workflow solutions and radiation therapy for 
the early identification and treatment of cancer. The Company reports in two segments –Cancer Detection (“Detection”) 
and Cancer Therapy (“Therapy”).

The Company has grown primarily through acquisitions to become a broad player in the oncology market.

In  the  Detection  segment,  the  Company’s  solutions  include  advanced  image  analysis  and  workflow  solutions  that 
enable healthcare professionals to better serve patients by identifying pathologies and pinpointing the most prevalent 
cancers earlier, a comprehensive range of high-performance, upgradeable Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) systems 
and workflow solutions for mammography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT).

The Company intends to continue the extension of its superior image analysis and clinical decision support solutions 
for mammography, MRI and CT imaging. iCAD believes that advances in digital imaging techniques should bolster 
its efforts to develop additional commercially viable CAD/advanced image analysis and workflow products.

In the Therapy segment the Company offers an isotope-free cancer treatment platform technology. The Xoft Electronic 
Brachytherapy System (“Xoft System”) can be used for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer, endometrial cancer,

cervical cancer and skin cancer. We believe the Xoft System platform indications represent strategic opportunities in 
the United States and International markets to offer differentiated treatment alternatives. In addition, the Xoft System 
generates additional recurring revenue for the sale of consumables and related accessories which will continue to drive 
growth in this segment.

On  January  4,  2018,  the  Company  adopted  a  plan  to  discontinue  offering  radiation  therapy  professional  services 
to  practices  that  provide  the  Company’s  electronic  brachytherapy  solution  for  the  treatment  of  NMSC  under  the 
subscription service model within the Therapy Segment. As a result, the Company will no longer offer the subscription 
service model to customers. The Company will continue to offer its capital sales model for both skin cancer treatment 
and IORT, which provides a brachytherapy system and related source and service agreements. The discontinuance of 
the subscription service model is expected to reduce radiation therapy professional services delivery costs, decrease 
cash burn, and re-focus the Company on the higher margin capital product and service offerings.

Based  on  the  decision  to  discontinue  offering  radiation  therapy  professional  services  within  the  Cancer  Therapy 
Segment,  the  Company  revised  its  forecasts  related  to  the Therapy  segment,  which  we  deemed  to  be  a  triggering 
event. As a result, the Company recorded a goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charge of approximately $2.0 
million for the period ended December 31, 2017 (see Note h and Note i to the consolidated financial statements for 
additional discussion).

In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 
the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company evaluated the Therapy reporting unit for both long-lived asset 
and goodwill impairment. As a result of this assessment, the Company recorded material impairment charges in the 
Therapy reporting unit (see Note h and Note i to the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion).

On January 30, 2017, the Company completed the sale of certain intellectual property relating to the VersaVue Software 
and the DynaCAD product and related assets to Invivo for $3,200,000 in cash with a holdback amount of $350,000.

The Company’s headquarters are located in Nashua, New Hampshire, with manufacturing facilities in Nashua, New 
Hampshire and, an operations, research, development, manufacturing and warehousing facility in San Jose, California.

Critical Accounting Policies 

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows are based on 
its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally 
accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates 
and  judgments  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of  assets,  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses,  and  related  disclosure 
of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, including those 
related  to  revenue  recognition,  allowance  for  doubtful  accounts,  inventory  valuation  and  obsolescence,  intangible 
assets, goodwill, warrants, income taxes, contingencies and litigation. Additionally, the Company uses assumptions 
and estimates in calculations to determine stock-based compensation and the value of warrants. The Company bases 
its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the 
circumstances,  the  results  of  which  form  the  basis  for  making  judgments  about  the  carrying  values  of  assets  and 
liabilities  that  are  not  readily  apparent  from  other  sources. Actual  results  may  differ  from  these  estimates  under 
different assumptions or conditions.

The Company’s critical accounting policies include:

Inventory;

-   Revenue recognition;
-   Allowance for doubtful accounts; 
-  
-   Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets;
-   Goodwill;
- 
- 

Stock based compensation; and
Income taxes.

Revenue Recognition 

The  Company  recognizes  revenue  primarily  from  the  sale  of  products  and  from  the  sale  of  services  and  supplies. 
Revenue is recognized when delivery has occurred, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or 
determinable and collectability of the related receivable is probable. For product revenue, delivery has occurred upon 
shipment provided title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Services and supplies revenue are considered to 
be delivered as the services are performed or over the estimated life of the supply agreement.

31

 
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its digital, film-based CAD and cancer therapy products and services 
in  accordance  with  Financial Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”) Accounting  Standards  Codification  (“ASC”) 
Update No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements” (“ASU 2009-13”) and ASC Update No. 2009-
14, “Certain Arrangements That Contain Software Elements” (“ASU 2009-14”) and ASC 985-605, “Software” (“ASC 
985-605”).  Revenue  from  the  sale  of  certain  CAD  products  is  recognized  in  accordance  with ASC  840  “Leases” 
(“ASC 840”). For multiple element arrangements, revenue is allocated to all deliverables based on their relative selling 
prices.  In  such  circumstances,  a  hierarchy  is  used  to  determine  the  selling  price  to  be  used  for  allocating  revenue 
to  deliverables  as  follows:  (i)  vendor-specific  objective  evidence  of  fair  value  (“VSOE”),  (ii)  third-party  evidence 
of  selling  price  (“TPE”)  and  (iii)  best  estimate  of  the  selling  price  (“BESP”).  VSOE  generally  exists  only  when 
the deliverable is sold separately and is the price actually charged for that deliverable. The process for determining 
BESP for deliverables without VSOE or TPE considers multiple factors including relative selling prices; competitive 
prices in the marketplace, and management judgment; however, these may vary depending upon the unique facts and 
circumstances related to each deliverable.

The Company uses customer purchase orders that are subject to the Company’s terms and conditions or, in the case 
of an Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) are governed by distribution agreements. In accordance with the 
Company’s distribution agreements, the OEM does not have a right of return, and title and risk of loss passes to the 
OEM  upon  shipment.  The  Company  generally  ships  Free  On  Board  shipping  point  and  uses  shipping  documents 
and third-party proof of delivery to verify delivery and transfer of title. In addition, the Company assesses whether 
collection is probable by considering a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the 
creditworthiness of the customer, as obtained from third party credit references.

If  the  terms  of  the  sale  include  customer  acceptance  provisions  and  compliance  with  those  provisions  cannot  be 
demonstrated, all revenue is deferred and not recognized until such acceptance occurs. The Company considers all 
relevant facts and circumstances in determining when to recognize revenue, including contractual obligations to the 
customer, the customer’s post-delivery acceptance provisions, if any, and the installation process.

The Company has determined that iCAD’s digital and film based sales generally follow the guidance of FASB ASC 
Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”) as the software has been considered essential to the functionality of 
the product per the guidance of ASU 2009-14. Typically, the responsibility for the installation process lies with the 
OEM partner. On occasion, when iCAD is responsible for product installation, the installation element is considered a 
separate unit of accounting because the delivered product has stand-alone value to the customer. In these instances, the 
Company allocates revenue to the deliverables based on the framework established within ASU 2009-13. Therefore, 
the installation and training revenue is recognized as the services are performed according to the BESP of the element. 
Revenue from the digital and film based equipment, when there is installation, is recognized based on the relative 
selling price allocation of the BESP, when delivered.

Revenue from certain CAD products is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605. Sales of this product include 
training, and the Company has established VSOE for this element. Product revenue is determined based on the residual 
value in the arrangement and is recognized when delivered. Revenue for training is deferred and recognized when the 
training has been completed.

Sales of the Company’s Therapy segment products typically include a controller, accessories, source agreements and 
services. The Company allocates revenue to the deliverables in the arrangement based on the BESP in accordance 
with ASU 2009-13. Product revenue is generally recognized when the product has been delivered and service and 
source  revenue  is  typically  recognized  over  the  life  of  the  service  and  source  agreement.  The  Company  includes 
the following in service and supplies revenue: the sale of physics and management services, the lease of electronic 
brachytherapy  equipment,  development  fees,  supplies  and  the  right  to  use  the  Company’s  AxxentHub  software. 
Physics and management services revenue and development fees are considered to be delivered as the services are 
performed or over the estimated life of the agreement. The Company typically bills items monthly over the life of the 
agreement except for development fees, which are generally billed in advance or over a 12 month period and the fee 
for treatment supplies which is generally billed in advance.

The  Company  defers  revenue  from  the  sale  of  certain  service  contracts  and  recognizes  the  related  revenue  on  a 
straight-line basis in accordance with ASC Topic 605-20, “Services”. The Company provides for estimated warranty 
costs on original product warranties at the time of sale.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s policy is to maintain allowances for estimated losses from the inability of its customers to make required 
payments. Credit limits are established through a process of reviewing the financial results, stability and payment history 
of each customer. Where appropriate, the Company obtains credit rating reports and financial statements of customers 

32

when determining or modifying credit limits. The Company’s senior management reviews accounts receivable on a 
periodic basis to determine if any receivables may potentially be uncollectible. The Company includes any accounts 
receivable balances that it determines may likely be uncollectible, along with a general reserve for estimated probable 
losses based on historical experience, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. An amount would be written off 
against the allowance after all attempts to collect the receivable had failed. Based on the information available to the 
Company, it believes the allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2017 is adequate.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. 
The  Company  regularly  reviews  inventory  quantities  on  hand  and  records  a  provision  for  excess  and/or  obsolete 
inventory primarily based upon historical usage of its inventory as well as other factors.

Goodwill

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350-20, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”, (“ASC 350-20”), the Company 
tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is 
more likely than not that the fair value of the Company is less than the carrying value of the Company.

Factors the Company considers important, which could trigger an impairment of such asset, include the following:

•	
•	

•	
•	
•	

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
significant  changes  in  the  manner  or  use  of  the  assets  or  the  strategy  for  the  Company’s  overall 
business;
significant negative industry or economic trends;
significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period; and
a decline in the Company’s market capitalization below net book value.

The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The Company 
determined that it has two reporting units and two reportable segments based on the information that is provided to the 
CODM. The two segments and reporting units are Cancer Detection (“Detection”) and Cancer Therapy (“Therapy”). 
Each reportable segment generates revenue from the sale of medical equipment and related services and/or sale of 
supplies. Upon initial adoption, goodwill was allocated to the reporting units based on the relative fair value of the 
reporting units.

The Company records an impairment charge if such an assessment were to indicate that the fair value of a reporting 
unit  was  less  than  the  carrying  value.  When  the  Company  evaluates  potential  impairments  outside  of  its  annual 
measurement  date,  judgment  is  required  in  determining  whether  an  event  has  occurred  that  may  impair  the  value 
of  goodwill  or  intangible  assets.  The  Company  utilizes  either  discounted  cash  flow  models  or  other  valuation 
models, such as comparative transactions and market multiples, to determine the fair value of its reporting units. The 
Company makes assumptions about future cash flows, future operating plans, discount rates, comparable companies, 
market multiples, purchase price premiums and other factors in those models. Different assumptions and judgment 
determinations could yield different conclusions that would result in an impairment charge to income in the period that 
such change or determination was made.

In January 2018 the Company adopted a plan to discontinue offering radiation therapy professional services to practices 
that  provide  the  Company’s  electronic  brachytherapy  solution  for  the  treatment  of  NMSC  under  the  subscription 
service  model  within  the  Therapy  Segment. As  result,  the  Company  will  no  longer  offer  the  subscription  service 
model to customers. Based on the decision to discontinue offering radiation therapy professional within the Therapy 
Segment, the Company revised its forecasts related to the Therapy segment, which we deemed to be a triggering event.

The  Company  elected  to  early  adopt ASU  2017-04,  Intangibles  –  Goodwill  and  Other:  Simplifying  the  Test  for 
Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”) as of September 30, 2017 which affected both the third quarter and fourth 
quarter impairment tests. ASU 2017-04 specifies that goodwill impairment is the amount by which a reporting unit’s 
carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. In accordance with the standard, 
the fair value of the Therapy reporting unit as of the fourth quarter was $0.1 million and the carrying value was $2.1 
million. The deficiency exceeded the carrying value of goodwill and the balance of $1.7 million was recorded as an 
impairment charge in the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

As a result of the underperformance of the Therapy reporting unit as compared to expected future results, the Company 
determined there was a triggering event in the third quarter of 2017. As a result, the Company completed an interim 
impairment assessment. The interim test resulted in the fair value of the Therapy reporting unit being less than the 

33

carrying value of the reporting unit. The fair value of the Therapy reporting unit was $3.5 million and the carrying 
value was $7.5 million. The deficiency of $4.0 million was recorded as an impairment charge in the third quarter 
ended September 30, 2017. The Company did not identify a triggering event within the Detection reporting unit and 
accordingly did not perform an interim test.

As a result of external factors and general uncertainty related to reimbursement for non-melanoma skin cancer and in 
conjunction with the long-lived asset impairment testing, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the 
Therapy reporting unit as of June 30, 2015. As a result the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $14.0 
million during the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

The Company determines the fair value of reporting units based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, 
discounted  at  an  appropriate  risk  adjusted  rate.  This  approach  was  selected  as  it  measures  the  income  producing 
assets, primarily technology and customer relationships. This method estimates the fair value based upon the ability 
to generate future cash flows, which is particularly applicable when future profit margins and growth are expected to 
vary significantly from historical operating results.

The Company uses internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and includes an estimate of long-term future growth 
rates based on the most recent views of the long-term forecast for the reporting unit. Accordingly, actual results can 
differ from those assumed in the forecasts. Discount rates are derived from a capital asset pricing model and analyzing 
published rates for industries relevant to the reporting unit to estimate the cost of equity financing. The Company uses 
discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in the respective businesses and in the 
internally developed forecasts.

Other significant assumptions include terminal value margin rates, future capital expenditures, and changes in future 
working  capital  requirements.  While  there  are  inherent  uncertainties  related  to  the  assumptions  used  and  to  the 
application of these assumptions to this analysis, the income approach provides a reasonable estimate of the fair value 
of the Therapy reporting unit.

The Company performed the annual impairment assessment at October 1, 2017 and compared the fair value of each of 
reporting unit to its carrying value as of this date. Fair value exceeded the carrying value for the Detection reporting 
unit, and the carrying value approximated fair value of the Therapy reporting unit after the impairment as of September 
30, 2017. The carrying values of the reporting units were determined based on an allocation of our assets and liabilities 
through specific allocation of certain assets and liabilities, to the reporting units and an apportionment of the remaining 
net assets based on the relative size of the reporting units’ revenues and operating expenses compared to the Company 
as a whole. The determination of reporting units also requires management judgment.

Fair values for the reporting units are based on a weighting of the income approach and the market approach. For 
purposes of the income approach, fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, 
discounted at an appropriate risk adjusted rate. The Company uses internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and 
includes estimates of long-term future growth rates based on our most recent views of the long-term forecast for each 
segment. Accordingly, actual results can differ from those assumed in our forecasts. Discount rates are derived from a 
capital asset pricing model and by analyzing published rates for industries relevant to our reporting units to estimate 
the cost of equity financing. The Company uses discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty 
inherent in the respective businesses and in our internally developed forecasts.

In the market approach, the Company uses a valuation technique in which values are derived based on market prices 
of  publicly  traded  companies  with  similar  operating  characteristics  and  industries. A  market  approach  allows  for 
comparison  to  actual  market  transactions  and  multiples.  It  can  be  somewhat  limited  in  its  application  because  the 
population of potential comparable publicly-traded companies can be limited due to differing characteristics of the 
comparative business and ours, as well as the fact that market data may not be available for divisions within larger 
conglomerates or non-public subsidiaries that could otherwise qualify as comparable, and the specific circumstances 
surrounding a market transaction (e.g., synergies between the parties, terms and conditions of the transaction, etc.) 
may be different or irrelevant with respect to our business. 

The Company corroborates the total fair values of the reporting units using a market capitalization approach; however, 
this approach cannot be used to determine the fair value of each reporting unit value. The blend of the income approach 
and market approach is more closely aligned to our business profile, including markets served and products available. 
In addition, required rates of return, along with uncertainties inherent in the forecast of future cash flows, are reflected 
in the selection of the discount rate. Equally important, under the blended approach, reasonably likely scenarios and 
associated sensitivities can be developed for alternative future states that may not be reflected in an observable market 
price. The Company assesses each valuation methodology based upon the relevance and availability of the data at the 
time the valuation is performed and weights the methodologies appropriately.

34

Long Lived Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, (“ASC 360”), the Company assesses 
long-lived assets for impairment if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of 
the asset group is less than the carrying value of the asset group.

ASC  360-10-35  uses  “events  and  circumstances”  criteria  to  determine  when,  if  at  all,  an  asset  (or  asset  group)  is 
evaluated for recoverability. Thus, there is no set interval or frequency for recoverability evaluation. In accordance 
with ASC 360-10-35-21 the following factors are examples of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the 
carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable and thus is to be evaluated for recoverability.

•	 A significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset (asset group);
•	 A significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset (asset group) is being used or in 

its physical condition;

•	 A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived 

asset (asset group), including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator;

•	 An  accumulation  of  costs  significantly  in  excess  of  the  amount  originally  expected  for  the  acquisition  or 

construction of a long-lived asset (asset group);

•	 A current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection 

or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset (asset group).

In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-17, if the carrying amount of an asset or asset group (in use or under development) 
is evaluated and found not to be fully recoverable (the carrying amount exceeds the estimated gross, undiscounted 
cash flows from use and disposition), then an impairment loss must be recognized. The impairment loss is measured as 
the excess of the carrying amount over the assets (or asset group’s) fair value. The Company has determined the “Asset 
Group” to be the assets of the Therapy segment, which the Company considered to be the lowest level for which the 
identifiable cash flows were largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

The Company completed an interim goodwill impairment assessment for the Therapy reporting unit in the third quarter 
of 2017 and noted that there was an impairment of goodwill. As a result, the Company determined this was a triggering 
event to review long-lived assets for impairment. Accordingly, the Company completed an analysis pursuant to ASC 
360-10-35-17 and determined that the carrying value of the asset group exceeded the undiscounted cash flows, and 
that long-lived assets were impaired. The Company recorded long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately 
$0.7 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2017 based on the deficiency between the book value of the 
assets and the fair value as determined in the analysis. The Company also completed a goodwill assessment in the 
fourth quarter of 2017, and in connection with that assessment, the Company completed an analysis pursuant to ASC 
360-10-35-17 and determined that the undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value of the asset group and that 
long-lived assets were not impaired.

As  a  result  of  external  factors  and  general  uncertainty  related  to  reimbursement  for  the  treatment  of  NMSC,  the 
Company  evaluated  the  long-lived  assets  of  the  Therapy  segment  and  reviewed  them  for  impairment  in  2015.  In 
connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company 
completed its analysis pursuant to ASC 360-10-35-17 and determined that the carrying value of the Asset Group was 
approximately $36.8 million, which exceeded the undiscounted cash flows by approximately $2.8 million. Accordingly, 
the Company completed the Step 2 analysis to determine the fair value of the Asset Group. The Company recorded 
long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $13.4 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2015 and as 
a result the long-lived assets in the Asset Group were recorded at their current fair values.

The Company did not record any impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2016.

A considerable amount of judgment and assumptions are required in performing the impairment tests, principally in 
determining the fair value of the Asset Group and the reporting unit. While the Company believes the judgments and 
assumptions are reasonable, different assumptions could change the estimated fair values and, therefore additional 
impairment charges could be required. Significant negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to the Company’s 
business, loss of significant customers, inability to effectively integrate acquired businesses, unexpected significant 
changes or planned changes in use of the assets may adversely impact the assumptions used in the fair value estimates 
and ultimately result in future impairment charges.

Intangible assets subject to amortization consist primarily of patents, technology intangibles, trade names, customer 
relationships  and  distribution  agreements  purchased  in  the  Company’s  previous  acquisitions.  These  assets  are 
amortized on a straight-line basis or the pattern of economic benefit over their estimated useful lives of 5 to 10 years.

35

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company maintains stock-based incentive plans, under which it provides stock incentives to employees, directors 
and contractors. The Company grants to employees, directors and contractors, options to purchase common stock at 
an exercise price equal to the market value of the stock at the date of grant. The Company may grant restricted stock 
to employees and directors. The underlying shares of the restricted stock grant are not issued until the shares vest, 
and compensation expense is based on the stock price of the shares at the time of grant. The Company follows ASC 
718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, (“ASC 718”), for all stock-based compensation. The Company granted 
performance  based  restricted  stock  during  2016  based  on  achievement  of  certain  revenue  targets.  Compensation 
cost for performance based restricted stock requires significant judgment regarding probability of the performance 
objectives and compensation cost is re-measured at every reporting period. As a result compensation cost could vary 
significantly during the performance measurement period.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options which requires extensive use of 
accounting judgment and financial estimates, including estimates of the expected term participants will retain their 
vested stock options before exercising them, the estimated volatility of its common stock price over the expected term, 
and the number of options that will be forfeited prior to the completion of their vesting requirements. Fair value of 
restricted stock is determined based on the stock price of the underlying option on the date of the grant. Application of 
alternative assumptions could produce significantly different estimates of the fair value of stock-based compensation 
and consequently, the related amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company follows the liability method under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). The primary objectives 
of accounting for taxes under ASC 740 are to (a) recognize the amount of tax payable for the current year and (b) 
recognize the amount of deferred tax liability or asset for the future tax consequences of events that have been reflected 
in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against 
its deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016 as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not 
be realized.

ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements 
and  prescribes  a  recognition  threshold  and  measurement  attribute  for  the  financial  statement  recognition  and 
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740-10 also provides guidance on 
de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, disclosure and transition.

In  addition,  uncertain  tax  positions  and  tax  related  valuation  allowances  assumed  in  connection  with  a  business 
combination  are  initially  estimated  as  of  the  acquisition  date  and  the  Company  revaluates  these  items  quarterly, 
with any adjustments to preliminary estimates being recorded to goodwill, provided that the Company is within the 
measurement period (which may be up to one year from the acquisition date) and continues to collect information 
in  order  to  determine  their  estimated  values.  Subsequent  to  the  measurement  period  or  final  determination  of  the 
tax allowance’s or contingency’s estimated value, changes to these uncertain tax positions and tax related valuation 
allowances may affect the provision for income taxes presented in the Company’s statement of operations.

Detection revenues increased 6.9% or $1.2 million from $17.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 to $18.3 
million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Detection product revenue increased by $3.0 million and Detection 
service revenue decreased $1.8 million. The increase in Detection product revenue is primarily due to a $4.1 million 
increase  in  digital  CAD  systems  offset  by  a  $1.0  million  decrease  in  MRI  products. The  increase  in  digital  CAD 
products is driven by increases in demand primarily from our OEM customers. In January 2017, we completed the 
sale of our MRI assets to Invivo. As a result MRI product revenue decreased $1.0 million and MRI service revenue 
decreased $0.9 million. Detection service and supplies revenue decreased $1.8 million due to decreases in MRI service 
revenue of $0.9 million and a decrease in digital service revenue of approximately $0.9 million. The decrease in digital 
service revenue is due primarily to the conversion and upgrade cycle from Secondlook digital to Tomo CAD.

Therapy revenue increased 6.4% or $0.6 million to $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $9.2 
million in the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in Therapy revenue was driven by an increase in Therapy 
product revenue of $0.1 million and an increase in Therapy service and supplies revenue of $0.5 million.

The increase in Therapy product and service revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017 is due primarily.to in 
increase in international controller sales in 2017. The Company believes that the international market can continue to 
be a growth area for controller sales.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $18.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to $18.5 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $0.3 million, Therapy gross profit decreased $1.4 million from $3.4 
million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to $2.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2017. Detection gross 
profit increased $1.1 million from $15.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016 to $16.2 million in the year 
ended December 31, 2017. Detection gross profit increased due primarily to the increase in Detection product sales, 
which have higher gross profits than Detection service revenues.

Therapy  gross  profit  decreased  due  to  the  increased  cost  associated  with  the  service  delivery  model  that  provided 
electronic brachytherapy solutions for the treatment of NMSC to Dermatology practices. In addition, the Company 
recorded an inventory reserve in cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2017 of approximately $1.0 million 
which is composed of $0.5 million in product and $0.5 million in service. In January 2018, the Company announced 
that the services to provide electronic brachytherapy solutions for the treatment of NMSC to Dermatology practices 
would be discontinued. We believe that gross margins should improve in 2018 as a result of this decision.

$0.2 million or 2.6%, from $7.7 million in 2016 to $7.9 million in 2017. The increase in general and administrative 
expenses was due primarily to increases in stock compensation expense, rent and consulting offset by a decrease in 
personnel expenses.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation decreased by $0.6 million from $1.1 million to $0.5 
million. The decrease is due primarily to the impairment of intangible assets and reductions due to assets that have 
become fully depreciated.

Gain from sale of MRI assets. The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Invivo Corporation to 
sell certain MRI assets in December 2016 and the transaction closed on January 30, 2017. As a result, the Company

Detection  revenues  decreased  11.0  %  or  $2.1  million  from  $19.2  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2015 
to $17.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. Detection product revenue decreased by $2.5 million and 
Detection service revenue increased $0.4 million. The decrease in Detection product revenue is primarily due to a 
$0.4 million decrease in digital CAD systems and a $2.1 million decrease in MRI products. The decrease in digital 
CAD and MRI products are driven by decreases in demand primarily from our OEM customers. Detection service and 
supplies revenue increased $0.4 million primarily due to increases in our installed base for Powerlook AMP.

Therapy revenue decreased 58.7% or $13.1 million to $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 from $22.3 
million in the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in Therapy revenue was driven by a decrease in Therapy 
product revenue of $1.2 million and a decrease in Therapy service and supplies revenue of $11.9 million.

The  decrease  in  Therapy  product  and  service  revenue  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2016  is  primarily  due  to 
the negative impact of customer reaction to the uncertainty of reimbursement rates for NSMC in the United States. 
Product revenue from the sale of our Axxent eBx systems can vary significantly due to an increase or decrease in the 
number of units sold which can cause a significant fluctuation in product revenue in the period.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $18.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to $29.4 million for the 
year ended December 31, 2015, a decrease of $10.8 million, Therapy gross profit decreased $9.9 million from $13.3 
million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to $3.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2016. Detection gross 
profit decreased $0.9 million from $16.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 to $15.1 million in the year 
ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in Therapy gross profit was due primarily to the decrease in Therapy revenue. 
Detection gross profit decreased due primarily to the decrease in Detection product sales, which have higher gross 
profits than Detection service revenues.

Gross profit percent was 70.3% for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to 70.6% for the year ended December 
31, 2015. Included in cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016 is a credit of $491,000 related to a refund 
of the Medical Device Excise Tax (“MDET”). Gross profit will fluctuate due to the costs related to manufacturing, 
amortization and the impact of product mix in each segment. Cost of revenue and gross profit for 2016 and 2015 were

Engineering and Product Development. Engineering and product development costs for the year ended December 
31, 2016 increased by $0.3 million or 3.9%, from $9.2 million in 2015 to $9.5 million in 2016. Therapy engineering 
and  product  development  costs  decreased  by  approximately  $0.3  million  and  Detection  engineering  and  product 
development costs increased by $0.6 million. The decrease in the Therapy segment is due primarily to a decrease in 
personnel expenses. The increase in the Detection segment is due primarily to an increase in personnel expenses of 
$0.8 million offset by a decrease in clinical trial expenses of $0.2 million. The Company continues to invest in ongoing 
clinical trials, and research expenses in support of new products and reimbursement codes.

Marketing and Sales. Marketing and sales expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 decreased by $2.2 million 
or  17.9%,  from  $12.4  million  in  2015  to  $10.2  million  in  2016. Therapy  marketing  and  sales  expenses  decreased 
approximately  $2.1  million  and  Detection  marketing  and  sales  expenses  decreased  $0.1  million.  The  decrease  in 
Therapy marketing and sales expense was due primarily to a decrease in personnel expenses and commissions.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased by 
$1.1 million or 12.7%, from $8.8 million in 2015 to $7.7 million in 2016. The decrease in general and administrative 
expenses was due primarily to decreases in personnel costs of $0.5 million, bad debt expense of $0.2 million and a gain 
on litigation settlement in 2016 of $0.2 million and other costs of approximately $0.2 million.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation decreased by $0.5 million from $1.6 million to $1.1 
million.  The  primary  decrease  is  due  to  revised  values  of  assets  due  to  an  impairment  of  intangible  assets  of  the 
Therapy reporting unit in June 2015 which was offset by an increase in amortization due to the acquisition of VuComp 
assets in January 2016.

Goodwill and long-lived asset impairment. In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second 
quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company evaluated the Therapy reporting unit for both long-lived asset and goodwill 
impairment and recorded an impairment charge of $14.0 million related to goodwill and an impairment charge of $13.4 
million related to long-lived assets for a total of $27.4 million. There was no impairment charge in 2016.

Interest Expense. The Company recorded $63,000 of interest expense in 2016 as compared with $650,000 of interest 
expense during the year ended December 31, 2015. The reduction in interest expense is due primarily to the reduction 
in interest related to the Deerfield facility agreement that was terminated on March 31, 2015.

Loss  from  extinguishment  of  debt.  The  loss  of  $1.7  million  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2015  represents  the 
loss associated with the payoff of the Deerfield facility agreement, which was terminated on March 31, 2015. The 
Company  paid  $11.25  million  which  represented  the  entire  obligation.  The  loss  on  extinguishment  represents  the 
unamortized discount on the Facility agreement, and the write-off of the deferred debt costs. The Facility Agreement 
was to mature on December 29, 2016 and was able to be repaid at the Company’s option without penalty or premium.

Interest income. Interest income of $10,000 and $21,000 for the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively, 
reflects income earned from our money market accounts.

Tax benefit (expense). The Company recorded tax expense of $76,000 and $16,000 for the years ended December 
31, 2016, and 2015, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded a net tax expense 
of $16,000. This resulted from a tax benefit due primarily to the reversal of a deferred tax liability of approximately 
$79,000 offset by tax expense of approximately $95,000. The deferred tax liability was the result of tax amortizable 
goodwill that was recognized due to the impairment of goodwill. Tax expense in 2016 and 2015 relates primarily to 
state non-income and franchise based taxes.

Segment Analysis

The Company operates in and reports results for two segments: Cancer Detection and Cancer Therapy. Segment operating 
income (loss) includes Cost of Sales, Engineering and Product Development, Marketing and Sales, and depreciation and 
amortization for the respective segment. Adjusted EBITDA is a Non-GAAP measure and excludes Stock Compensation, 
Depreciation  and  Amortization  expense  of  the  respective  segment.  The  Company  does  not  allocate  General  and 
Administrative and depreciation and amortization expense included in General and Administrative expenses, as well 

42

as Other Income and Expense to a segment, and accordingly those are included as reconciling items to the Loss before 
income tax. These non-GAAP metrics may be inconsistent with similar measures presented by other companies and 
should only be used in conjunction with our results reported according to U.S. GAAP. Any financial measure other 
than those prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures 
of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management considers these non-GAAP financial 
measures to be an important indicator of the Company’s operational strength and performance of its business and a good 
measure of its historical operating trends, in particular the extent to which ongoing operations impact the Company’s 
overall financial performance. A summary of Segment revenues, segment operating income (loss) and segment adjusted 
EBITDA for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015 are below (in thousands):

Detection gross profit increased to approximately $16.2 million or 89% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 
2017 from $15.1 million or 88% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016.. Detection cost of sales also had a 
reduction of $0.2 million in 2016 related to Medical Device Excise tax refunds. Detection segment operating income 
for the year ended December 31, 2017 increased by $0.7 million to $6.4 million from $5.7 million for the year ended 
December 31, 2016. The increase in segment operating income for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared 
to the year ended December 31, 2016 was due primarily to the increase in revenue for the year ended December 31, 
2017 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2016. Detection operating expenses increased by $0.4 million to 
$9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $9.4 million for the year ended December 31, 
2016, reflecting increases in marketing and sales expenses, which is primarily increased commissions and personnel 
related expenses.

Detection gross profit decreased to approximately $15.1 million or 88% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 
2016 from $16.0 million or 83% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015, which is the result of changes in 
both revenue and product mix. Detection segment operating income for the year ended December 31, 2016 decreased 
by $1.5 million to $5.7 million from $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in segment 
operating income for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2015 was due 
primarily to the decrease in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the year ended December 
31, 2015. Detection operating expenses increased by $0.6 million to $9.4 million for the year ended December 31, 
2016 as compared to $8.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, reflecting additional investments in research 
and development, primarily to support new product development.

Therapy gross profit decreased by approximately $1.4 million to $2.0 million or 20% of revenue for the year ended 
December  31,  2017  from  approximately  $3.4  million  or  37%  of  revenue  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2016. 
The decrease in Therapy gross profit is due primarily to the inventory reserve of $1.0 million and increased labor 
costs  associated  with  the  Therapy  subscription  business,  which  the  Company  is  exiting  in  2018.  Therapy  cost  of 
sales also had a reduction of $0.3 million in 2016 related to Medical Device Excise tax refunds. Therapy operating 
expenses for the year ended December 31, 2017 were approximately $17.1 million as compared to $11.2 million for 
the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in operating expenses is due primarily to the goodwill and long-
lived asset impairment charge of $6.7 million offset by reductions in clinical expenses, research and development, 
and personnel expenses in marketing. Therapy segment operating loss increased to a loss of $15.1 million for the year 
ended December 31, 2017 from a loss of $7.8 million for the period ended December 31, 2016.

Therapy gross profit decreased by approximately $9.9 million to $3.4 million or 37% of revenue for the year ended 
December 31, 2016 from approximately $13.3 million or 60% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015, 
which reflects the decline in revenue from $22.3 million to $9.2 million for the same periods. The decline in gross 
profit percent is due primarily to the fixed manufacturing expenses in cost of sales. Therapy operating expenses for 
the year ended December 31, 2016 were approximately $11.2 million as compared to $14.2 million for the year ended 
December 31, 2015. The decrease in operating expenses is due primarily to the cost reduction efforts initiated in 2015 
due to reimbursement uncertainty. Therapy segment operating loss improved to a loss of $7.8 million for the year 
ended December 31, 2016 from a loss of $28.4 million for the period ended December 31, 2015. The operating loss of 
$28.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 is due primarily to the impairment loss of $27.4 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The  Company  believes  that  its  cash  and  cash  equivalents  balance  of  $9.4  million  as  of  December  31,  2017,  and 
projected cash balances are sufficient to sustain operations through at least the next 12 months. The Company’s ability 
to generate cash adequate to meet its future capital requirements will depend primarily on operating cash flow. If sales 
or  cash  collections  are  reduced  from  current  expectations,  or  if  expenses  and  cash  requirements  are  increased,  the 
Company may require additional financing, although there are no guarantees that the Company will be able to obtain 
the financing if necessary. The Company will continue to closely monitor its liquidity and the capital and credit markets.

The  Company  had  working  capital  of  $9.1  million  at  December  31,  2017.  The  ratio  of  current  assets  to  current 
liabilities at December 31, 2017 and 2016 was 1.76 and 1.55, respectively. In January 2017, the Company closed 
an Asset  Purchase  agreement  for  $3.2  million  with  Invivo  to  sell  certain  MRI  assets  and  received  $2.9  million  in 
cash, which was net of a $350,000 holdback in escrow. In August 2017 the Company entered into a debt facility that 
provides an initial term loan of $6.0 million and a $4.0 million revolving line of credit. Such debt facility was modified 
in March 2018. The Company also has the option to secure an additional $3.0 million in term loan in 2018, subject to 
meeting minimum Detection revenues.

Net cash used for operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $7.3 million as compared $5.5 million 
for 2016. The increase in cash used for operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2017 was due primarily 
to the net change in operating assets and liabilities for 2017 of approximately $3.9 million as compared to cash due to 

44

changes in operating assets and liabilities of approximately $109,000 in 2016, which was offset by a decrease in net 
loss less adjustments of approximately $2.0 million. The change in operating assets was due primarily to an increase 
in accounts receivable, which can fluctuate based on timing of collections. We expect that changes in operating assets 
and liabilities will continue to be a significant driver of changes in cash used in or provided by operations.

The net cash provided by investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $2.5 million, as compared 
to cash used for investing activities of $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The cash provided by 
investing activities in 2017 was due primarily to the proceeds from the sale of MRI assets. The cash used for investing 
activities in 2016 was due primarily to purchases of fixed assets.

Net  cash  provided  by  financing  activities  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  2017  was  $5.7  million  which  was 
composed of $6.0 million received from the debt facility offset by taxes paid for restricted stock issuance. Net cash 
used for financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $0.9 million, which was due primarily to cash 
repayments of lease obligations.

The following table summarizes as of December 31, 2017, for the periods presented, the Company’s future estimated 
cash payments under existing contractual obligations, and the financing obligations as noted below (in thousands).

Lease Obligations:

Operating Leases:
As of December 31, 2017, the Company had three lease obligations related to its facilities.

The Company’s executive offices are leased pursuant to a five-year lease (the “Lease”) that commenced on December 
15, 2006, with renewals in January, 2012, and August 2016 consisting of approximately 11,000 square feet of office 
space located at 98 Spit Brook Road, Suite 100 in Nashua, New Hampshire (the “Premises”). The August 2016 Lease 
renewal provides for an annual base rent of $184,518 for the period from March 2017 to February 2020. Additionally, 
the Company is required to pay its proportionate share of the building and real estate tax expenses and obtain insurance 
for the Premises.

The Company leases a facility consisting of approximately 24,350 square feet of office, manufacturing and warehousing 
space located at 101 Nicholson Lane, San Jose, CA. The operating lease commenced September 2012 with a current 
annual payment of $295,140 through September 2017, with all amounts payable in equal monthly installments. In 
September  2016,  the  Company  extended  this  lease  for  the  period  from  October  2017  to  March  2020  with  annual 
payments of $540,588 from October 2017 to September 2018, $558,120 from October 2018 to September 2019 and 
$286,368 for the period from October 2019 to March 2020, with all amounts payable in equal monthly installments. 
Additionally, the Company is required to pay its proportionate share of the building and real estate tax expenses and 
obtain insurance for the facility.

In addition to the foregoing leases relating to its principal properties, the Company also has a lease for an additional 
facility in Nashua, New Hampshire used for product repairs, manufacturing and warehousing.

Capital Lease:
In August  2017,  the  Company  assumed  an  equipment  lease  obligation  with  payments  including  interest  payable, 
totaling $50,000. The leases were determined to be capital leases and accordingly the equipment was capitalized and 
a liability of $42,000 was recorded. The equipment will be depreciated over the expected life of 3 years.

45

Royalty Obligations:

As a result of the acquisition of Xoft, the Company recorded a royalty obligation pursuant to a settlement agreement 
entered  into  between  Xoft  and  Hologic,  in  August  2007.  Xoft  received  a  nonexclusive,  irrevocable,  perpetual, 
worldwide license, including the right to sublicense certain Hologic patents, and a non-compete covenant as well as 
an agreement not to seek further damages with respect to the alleged patent violations. In return the Company had 
a remaining obligation to pay a minimum annual royalty payment of $250,000 payable through 2016. In addition to 
the minimum annual royalty payments, the litigation settlement agreement with Hologic also provided for payment 
of royalties based upon a specified percentage of future net sales on any products that practice the licensed rights. 
The estimated fair value of the patent license and non-compete covenant is $100,000 and was amortized over the 
estimated  useful  life  of  approximately  four  years. As  of  December  31,  2017  the  remaining  liability  for  minimum 
royalty obligations totaling $0.4 million is recorded within accrued expenses and accounts payable.

In December 2011, the Company settled patent litigation with Zeiss. The Company determined that this settlement 
should be recorded as a measurement period adjustment and accordingly recorded the present value of the litigation to 
the opening balance sheet of Xoft. The Company paid the remaining obligation of $0.5 million in June 2017.

Notes Payable:

On August 7, 2017, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, which was modified by the First Loan 
Modification Agreement dated March 22, 2018 (the “Loan Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Bank”) that 
provides an initial term loan facility (amounts borrowed  thereunder, the “Term Loan”) of $6.0  million and a $4.0 
million revolving line of credit (amounts borrowed thereunder, the “Revolving Loans”). The Company also has the 
option to borrow an additional $3.0 million Term Loan under the Loan Agreement, subject to meeting a Detection 
revenue minimum of at least $21.5 million for a trailing twelve month period ending prior to July 30, 2019.

The Company will begin repayment of the first tranche of the Term Loan on September 1, 2018 in 36 equal monthly 
installments of principal. If the adjusted EBITDA minimum of $(750,000) for a trailing three month period ending 
between March 22, 2018 and July 31, 2018 (the “Adjusted EBITDA Event”) is met, the Company will begin repayment 
of the Term Loans beginning on March 1, 2019 in which case the Company would make 30 equal monthly installments 
of principal. The Company will begin repayment of the second tranche of the Term Loan on October 1, 2019 and make 
30 equal monthly installments of principal.

The outstanding Revolving Loans will accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to 1.50% above the prime rate 
for periods when the ratio of the Company’s unrestricted cash to the Company’s outstanding liabilities to the Bank 
plus the amount of the Company’s total liabilities that mature within one year is at least 1.25 to 1.0. At all other times, 
the interest rate shall be 0.50% above the prime rate. The outstanding Term Loans will accrue interest at a floating per 
annum rate equal to the prime rate.

The maturity date of the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans is March 1, 2022. However, the maturity date will 
become April  30,  2019, April  30,  2020  or April  30,  2021  if,  on  or  before  March  15,  2019,  or  2020  or  2021,  as 
applicable, the Company does not agree in writing to the Detection revenue and adjusted EBITDA covenant levels 
proposed by the Bank with respect to the upcoming applicable calendar year.

If the Revolving Loans are paid in full and the Loan Agreement is terminated prior to the maturity date, then the 
Company will pay to the Bank a termination fee in an amount equal to two percent (2.0%) of the maximum revolving 
line  of  credit.  If  the  Company  prepays  the  Term  Loans  prior  to  the  maturity  date,  then  the  Company  will  pay  to 
the Bank an amount equal to 1.0%-3.0% of the Term Loans, depending on when such Term Loans are repaid. The 
Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain net revenues during the trailing six month period ending on the 
last day of each calendar quarter as follows: June 30, 2017 - $10.25 million; September 30, 2017 - $11.5 million; 
and December 31, 2017 - $14 million. The Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain minimum detection 
revenues during the trailing six month period ending on the last day of each calendar quarter as follows: March 31, 
2018 - $8.622 million; June 30, 2018 - $8.373 million; September 30, 2018 - $8.648 million and December 31, 2018 
- $9.517 million. The Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain adjusted EBITDA during the trailing six 
month period ending on the last day of each calendar quarter as follows: March 31, 2018 - $(4.5 million); June 30, 
2018 - $(3.75 million); September 30, 2018 - $(1 million) and December 31, 2018 - $1.00. As of December 31, 2017 
the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the Loan Agreement.

Obligations to the Bank under the Loan Agreement or otherwise are secured by a first priority security interest in 
substantially all of the assets, including intellectual property, accounts, receivables, equipment, general intangibles, 
inventory and investment property, and all of the proceeds and products of the foregoing, of each of the Company and 
Xoft, Inc. and Xoft Solutions LLC, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.

Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), or ASU 
2014-09,  which  superseded  nearly  all  existing  revenue  recognition  guidance  under  U.S.  GAAP.  Since  then,  the 
FASB has also issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Principals versus Agent 
Considerations  and ASU  2016-10,  Revenue  from  Contracts  with  Customers  (Topic  606),  Identifying  Performance 
Obligations  and  Licensing,  which  further  elaborate  on  the  original ASU  No.  2014-09. The  core  principle  of  these 
updates  is  to  recognize  revenue  when  promised  goods  or  services  are  transferred  to  customers  in  an  amount  that 
reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a 
five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgments and estimates may be required within 
the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-
year deferral of the effective date to January 1, 2018, with early adoption to be permitted as of the original effective 
date of January 1, 2017. Once this standard becomes effective, companies may use either of the following transition 
methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each reporting period with the 
option  to  elect  certain  practical  expedients,  or  (ii)  a  retrospective  approach  with  the  cumulative  effect  of  initially 
adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures).

The Company has performed an assessment of its revenue streams and customer classes. During the fourth quarter of 
2017, the Company completed its implementation plan and finalized contract reviews and detailed policy drafting. The 
Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach, by recognizing 
the cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard as an increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. 
We expect this adjustment to be less than $0.1 million and do not expect a material impact on our revenue recognition 
practices on an ongoing basis. The Company will adopt certain practical expedients and make certain policy elections 
related  to  the  accounting  for  significant  finance  components,  sales  taxes,  shipping  and  handling,  costs  to  obtain  a 
contract, and immaterial promised goods or services, which will mitigate certain impacts of adopting Topic 606. 

The immaterial impact of adopting Topic 606 primarily relates to (a) the deferral of commissions on our long-term 
service  arrangements  and  warranty  periods  greater  than  one  year,  which  previously  were  expensed  as  incurred 
but under the amendments to ASC 340-40 will generally be capitalized and amortized over the period of contract 
performance or a longer period if renewals are expected and the renewal commission is not commensurate with the 
initial commission, (b) a small number of open contracts which include extended payment terms where the pattern and 
timing of revenue recognition will change, and (c) policy changes related to the determination of stand-alone selling 
prices of performance obligations and resulting allocation of the transaction price among performance obligations 
with differing patterns of transfer of control to the customer in contracts with multiple deliverables. Additionally, sales 
of certain CAD products contain lease components in which the Company leases equipment and provides professional 
services to hospitals and imaging centers. As lease contracts are not within the scope of Topic 606, the Company will 
continue to account for the lease components of these arrangements in accordance with ASC 840 “Leases” and the 
remaining consideration will be allocated to the other performance obligations identified in accordance with Topic 
606. The consideration allocated to the lease component will be recognized as lease revenue on a straight-line basis 
over the specified term of the agreement. Revenue for the non-lease components, such as service contracts, will also 
be recognized over time.

The impact to our results is not material because the analysis of our contracts under the new revenue recognition standard 
supports the recognition of revenue at a point in time for product sales and over time for service contracts (as well as 
for the lease components of certain CAD products), which is consistent with our current revenue recognition model. 
A significant portion of our revenue is generated from sales of cancer detection products and cancer therapy systems, 
and revenue is recognized when delivery has occurred as our performance obligation would be complete. The revenue 
components that are not primarily associated with the sale of these products, such as physics and management services, 
development fees, and supplies, are also not expected to be materially impacted by the adoption of the new standard. 

For performance obligations where the transfer of control occurs over-time, a time-based measure of progress (e.g., 
straight-line) continues to best depict the transfer of control of services to the customer for fixed fee service contracts 
and source agreements that represent stand-ready obligations to make goods or services available for the customer to 
use as and when the customer decides. For professional service contracts entered into with customers on a time and 
materials basis, an input-based measure of progress based on the number of days incurred or hours expended continues 
to best depict our progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. In addition, the number of our 
performance obligations under the new standard is not materially different from our contract deliverables under the 

47

existing standard. Lastly, the accounting for the estimate of variable consideration is not materially different compared 
to our current practice.

We also do not expect the standard to have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheet. The immaterial impact 
primarily relates to capitalization of commissions on our long-term service arrangements and warranty periods greater 
than one year and reclassifications among financial statement accounts to align with the new standard. Most notably, 
capitalized commissions will be classified as deferred contract costs and advance payments and deferred revenue will 
be combined and reclassified as contract liabilities. Our contract balances will be reported in a net contract asset or 
liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

Adoption  of  the  standard  would  result  in  an  increase  in  other  current  and  long-term  assets  of  approximately  $0.1 
million as of December 31, 2017, driven by capitalization of commissions on our long-term service arrangements 
and warranty periods greater than one year, as well as the reclassification of approximately $0.4 million in deferred 
revenue as of December 31, 2017 related to the lease components of certain CAD products which are outside the scope 
of Topic 606 to accrued expenses.

There  are  also  certain  considerations  related  to  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  that  are  associated  with 
implementing Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating its internal control framework over revenue recognition 
and making adjustments to the framework to enable the preparation of financial information and to obtain and disclose 
the information required under Topic 606. This evaluation is not expected to result in any material changes to the 
Company’s existing internal control framework over revenue recognition.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases”. The standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) 
model  that  requires  a  lessee  to  record  a  ROU  asset  and  a  lease  liability  on  the  balance  sheet  for  all  leases  with 
terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the 
pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after 
December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach 
is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest 
comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are currently 
evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements, however 
the adoption of the standard is expected to increase both assets and liabilities for leases that would previously have 
been off-balance sheet operating leases.

On January 1, 2017, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update 
(“ASU”) No. 2016-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based 
Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”), which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based 
payment transactions, including income taxes consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, 
and classification in the statement of cash flows. Under ASU 2016-09, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are 
recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement, and excess tax benefits are recognized regardless 
of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. The tax effects of exercised or vested awards are 
treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. As a result of the adoption, the net operating loss 
deferred tax assets increased by $1.9 million and are offset by a corresponding increase in the valuation allowance. 
The Company has elected to continue to estimate and apply a forfeiture rate based on awards expected to vest.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)”, a consensus of the FASB’s 
Emerging  Issues  Task  Force.  This  update  is  intended  to  reduce  diversity  in  practice  in  how  certain  transactions  are 
classified in the statement of cash flows. The update requires cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment 
costs  to  be  classified  as  cash  outflows  for  financing  activities.  It  also  requires  cash  payments  made  soon  after  an 
acquisition’s consummation date (approximately three months or less) to be classified as cash outflows for investing 
activities. Payments made thereafter should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities up to the amount of the 
original contingent consideration liability. Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration 
liability should be classified as cash outflows for operating activities. The amendment is effective for annual periods 
beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not 
expect the adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, “Restricted Cash”, which requires 
entities to show the changes in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the 
statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and 
restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this update should 
be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. This update is effective for annual periods 
beginning  after  December  15,  2017,  and  interim  periods  within  those  fiscal  years  with  early  adoption  permitted, 
including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of this standard will change the presentation of our statement of 

48

cash flows to include our restricted cash balance with the non-restricted cash balances. We do not anticipate that the 
adoption of ASU 2016-18 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”, to simplify how 
all entities assess goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. As amended, the 
goodwill impairment test will consist of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. 
An  entity  should  recognize  a  goodwill  impairment  charge  for  the  amount  by  which  the  reporting  unit’s  carrying 
amount exceeds its fair value. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and 
interim  periods  within  those  periods.  Early  adoption  is  permitted  for  interim  or  annual  goodwill  impairment  tests 
performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company elected to early adopt this standard in connection with 
the goodwill impairment analysis completed during the third quarter of 2017.

Item 7A. 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We  believe  we  are  not  subject  to  material  foreign  currency  exchange  rate  fluctuations,  as  most  of  our  sales  and 
expenses are domestic and therefore are denominated in the U.S. dollar. We do not hold derivative securities and have 
not entered into contracts embedded with derivative instruments, such as foreign currency and interest rate swaps, 
options, forwards, futures, collars, and warrants, either to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.

Item 9A.  

Controls and Procedures. 

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. 

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive 
officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls 
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based on this evaluation, 
the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and 
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) were effective as of December 31, 2017.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance 
that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there 
are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent 
limitations  in  all  control  systems,  no  evaluation  of  controls  can  provide  absolute  assurance  that  all  control  issues 
and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-
effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. The Company conducts 
periodic evaluations to enhance, where necessary its procedures and controls.

(b)  Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its principal executive officer 
and principal financial officer, is responsible for the preparation and integrity of the Company’s Consolidated Financial 
Statements, establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act 
Rule 13a-15(f)) for the Company and all related information appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems 
determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and 
presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls 
may  become  inadequate  because  of  changes  in  conditions,  or  that  the  degree  of  compliance  with  the  policies  or 
procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, using 
the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control 

49

- Integrated Framework (2013). Based on its assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer 
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2017.

(c)  Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer conducted an evaluation of the Company’s 
internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) to determine whether any changes 
in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2017, that have materially 
affected or which are reasonably likely to materially affect internal control over financial reporting. Based on that 
evaluation there has been no such change during such period.

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation provides for the annual election of all of its directors. The Board elects 
officers on an annual basis and our officers generally serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. 

Upon  the  recommendation  of  the  Company’s  Nominating  and  Corporate  Governance  Committee,  the  Board  of 
Directors fixed the size of the Company’s Board at nine directors.

Dr. Lawrence Howard was appointed Chairman of the Board in 2007 and has been a director of the Company since 
November 2006. Dr. Howard has been, since March 1997, a general partner of Hudson Ventures, L.P. (formerly known 
as Hudson Partners, L.P.), a limited partnership that is the general partner of Hudson Venture Partners, L.P. (“HVP”), 
a limited partnership that is qualified as a small business investment company. Since March 1997, Dr. Howard has 
also been a managing member of Hudson Management Associates LLC, a limited liability company that provides 
management  services  to  HVP.  Since  November  2000,  Dr.  Howard  has  been  a  General  Partner  of  Hudson Venture 
Partners II, and a limited partner of Hudson Venture II, L.P. In September of 2016, Dr. Howard became a member of

cancer, for which Biocancell is seeking FDA approval. In early 2017 Dr. Howard became chairman of the Board of 

50

 
 
 
 
 
 
Biocancell. We believe Dr. Howard’s qualifications to serve on our Board of Directors include his financial expertise 
and his understanding of our products and market.

Dr.  Rachel  Brem  has  been,  since  2000,  the  Breast  Cancer  Program  Leader  at  the  George  Washington  University 
Cancer Center, Director of Breast Imaging and Intervention at The George Washington University Medical Center,

specifically the diagnosis of breast cancer as well as her understanding of our products and market.

Anthony Ecock has been, since 2016, a Managing Director in the Carlyle Equity Opportunity Fund, a $2.4 billion 
middle market generalist fund within The Carlyle Group. Prior to joining Carlyle, Mr. Ecock started and built the 
operating  partner  team  at Welsh,  Carson, Anderson  &  Stowe  (“WCAS”)  which  he  joined  in  2007.  Before  joining 
WCAS, Mr. Ecock served as VP and GM of Enterprise Sales for General Electric Healthcare, an $18 billion division. 
Prior to joining GE, he was SVP and GM Patient Monitoring at Philips, Agilent and Hewlett Packard. Mr. Ecock spent 
twelve years at the consulting firm Bain & Company, where he was a partner in strategy and operations and program 
director for consultant training. Prior to business school, Mr. Ecock was a senior financial analyst at Cummins Engine 
Company. Mr. Ecock has been Chairman of the Board of Aptuit, United Surgical Partners and Electronic Evidence 
Discovery.  Mr.  Ecock  received  his  MBA  from  Harvard  University,  where  he  was  a  Baker  Scholar,  and  his  BS  in 
Economics with majors in Finance and Accounting, with honors from The Wharton School. We believe Mr. Ecock’s 
qualifications to serve on our Board of Directors include his financial expertise and his years of experience in the 
healthcare and technology markets.

Dr. Robert Goodman is a Professor of Radiation Oncology and a physician member of the Business Development 
Group in the Radiation Oncology department at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. From 2014 to 
2016, Dr. Goodman served as senior advisor to the President at the Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. From

Chair of the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Goodman also has served as 
Acting  Executive  Director  of  the  Hospital  of  the  University  of  Pennsylvania.  He  has  published  extensively  in  the 
oncology literature in highly respected peer-reviewed journals and has co-authored a textbook on breast cancer. We 
believe Dr. Goodman’s qualifications to serve on our Board of Directors include his extensive clinical background and 
his business leadership experience.

Steven Rappaport has been a partner of RZ Capital, LLC since July 2002, a private investment firm that also provides 
administrative services for a limited number of clients. From March 1995 to July 2002, Mr. Rappaport was Director, 
President  and  Principal  of  Loanet,  Inc.,  an  online  real-time accounting  service  used  by  brokers  and  institutions  to 
support domestic and international securities borrowing and lending activities. Loanet, Inc. was acquired by SunGard 
Data  Systems  in  May  2001.  From  March  1992  to  December  1994,  Mr.  Rappaport  was  Executive  Vice  President 
of  Metallurg,  Inc.  (“Metallurg”),  a  producer  and  seller  of  high  quality  specialty  metals  and  alloys,  and  President

In  addition,  Mr.  Rappaport  serves  as  a  director  of  several  privately  owned  businesses  and  several  not  for  profit 
organizations. We  believe Mr.  Rappaport’s  qualifications to  serve  on  our  Board  of  Directors  include his  extensive 
financial and legal expertise combined with his experience as an executive officer, partner and director.

Andy  Sassine  has  served  in  various  positions  at  Fidelity  Investments  from  1999  to  2012,  rising  to  the  position  of 
Portfolio Manager. Prior to joining Fidelity, he served as a vice president in the Acquisition Finance Group at Fleet 
National  Bank.  Mr.  Sassine  serves  on  the  board  of  directors  of  Gemphire Therapeutics,  Inc.,  a  NASDAQ  traded, 
clinical-stage biopharma focusing on developing and commercializing therapies for Dyslipidemia and NASH. Mr. 

51

Sassine previously served on the boards of MYnd Analytics, Inc., Acorn energy, Freedom Meditech, Inc., and MD

through 2014. Mr. Sassine holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Iowa and an MBA from the Wharton 
School at the University of Pennsylvania. We believe Mr. Sassine’s extensive knowledge and experience as a fund 
manager and board member of other companies of a similar size to our company qualifies him to serve as a member 
of our Board of Directors.

Somu Subramaniam is currently a Managing Partner and co-founder of New Science Ventures, a New York-based venture 
capital firm that invests in both early and late stage companies, using novel scientific approaches to address significant

biotechnology, photonics, software and semiconductor industries. He was also a member of McKinsey’s Investment 
Committee. We believe Mr. Subramaniam’s qualifications to serve on our Board include his extensive financial and 
legal expertise combined with his experience as an executive officer, partner and director.

Dr. Elliot Sussman is currently a Chairman of The Villages Health and Professor of Medicine at the University of 
South Florida College of Medicine. From 1993 to 2010, Dr. Sussman served as President and Chief Executive Officer

Pennsylvania. Dr. Sussman is a director and the Chairperson of the compensation committee of the Board of Directors 
of Universal Health Realty Income Trust, a public company involved in real estate investment trust primarily engaged 
in investing in healthcare and human service-related facilities. We believe Dr. Sussman’s qualifications to serve on our 
Board include his experience as a Chief Executive Officer of a leading healthcare network, combined with his medical 
background and his understanding of our products and market.

Kenneth  Ferry  has  served  as  the  Company’s  Chief  Executive  Officer  since  May  2006.  He  has  over  25  years  of 
experience in the healthcare technology field, with more than 10 years’ experience in senior management positions.

measurement solutions to the communications, electronics, life sciences and chemical analysis industries. We believe 
Mr.  Ferry’s  qualifications  to  serve  on  our  Board  of  Directors  include  his  global  executive  leadership  skills  and 
significant experience as an executive in the healthcare industry.

Richard  Christopher  is  the  Company’s  Executive  Vice  President  and  Chief  Financial  Officer.  Previously,  Mr. 
Christopher  served  as  Chief  Financial  and  Operating  Officer  of  Caliber  Imaging  &  Diagnostics,  Inc.,  a  medical

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our  Board  of  Directors  maintains  an Audit  Committee  which  is  composed  of  Mr.  Rappaport  (Chair),  Mr.  Ecock 
and Dr. Sussman. Our Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets the definition of an 
“Independent Director” under applicable NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. In addition, the Board has determined that 
each  member  of  the Audit  Committee meets  the  independence  requirements  of  applicable SEC  rules  and  that  Mr. 
Rappaport qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” under applicable SEC rules.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires certain of our officers and our directors, and persons who own more than 
10 percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the 
SEC. Officers, directors, and greater than 10 percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with 
copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of copies of such forms received by us, we believe that during the year ended December 31, 
2017; all filing requirements applicable to all of our officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial stockholders 
were timely complied with.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Stockholders and Board of Directors 
iCAD, Inc.
Nashua, New Hampshire

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iCAD, Inc. (the “Company”) and subsidiaries as of 
December  31,  2017  and  2016,  the  related  consolidated  statements  of  operations,  stockholders’  equity,  and  cash  flows 
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the 
“consolidated  financial  statements”).  In  our  opinion,  the  consolidated  financial  statements  present  fairly,  in  all  material 
respects, the financial position of the Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of their 
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with 
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These  consolidated  financial  statements  are  the  responsibility  of  the  Company’s  management.  Our  responsibility  is  to 
express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting 
firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be 
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and 
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform 
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, 
whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal 
control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over 
financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control 
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our  audits  included  performing  procedures  to  assess  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  consolidated  financial 
statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included 
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our 
audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 
evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable 
basis for our opinion.

/s/ BDO USA, LLP
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1989.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Nature of Operations and Use of Estimates

iCAD, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “iCAD”) is a provider of advanced image analysis, workflow 
solutions and radiation therapy for the early identification and treatment of cancer.

The Company has grown primarily through acquisitions to become a broad player in the oncology market. 
Its solutions include advanced image analysis and workflow solutions that enable healthcare professionals 
to  better  serve  patients  by  identifying  pathologies  and  pinpointing  the  most  prevalent  cancers  earlier,  a 
comprehensive  range  of  high-performance,  upgradeable  Computer-Aided  Detection  (CAD)  systems  and 
workflow solutions for mammography, MRI and CT, and the Xoft System which is an isotope-free cancer 
treatment platform technology. CAD is reimbursable in the U.S. under federal and most third-party insurance 
programs.

The Company intends to continue the extension of its image analysis and clinical decision support solutions 
for mammography, MRI and CT imaging. iCAD believes that advances in digital imaging techniques should 
bolster its efforts to develop additional commercially viable CAD/advanced image analysis and workflow 
products.  The  Company’s  management  believes  that  early  detection  in  combination  with  earlier  targeted 
intervention will provide patients and care providers with the best tools available to achieve better clinical 
outcomes resulting in a market demand that will drive top line growth.

The  Company’s  headquarters  are  located  in  Nashua,  New  Hampshire,  with  manufacturing  and  contract 
manufacturing facilities in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, and an operations, research, development, 
manufacturing and warehousing facility in San Jose, California.

The Company operates in two segments: Cancer Detection (“Detection”) and Cancer Therapy (“Therapy”). 
The Detection segment consists of advanced image analysis and workflow products, and the Therapy segment 
consists  of  radiation  therapy  products.  The  Company  sells  its  products  throughout  the  world  through  its 
direct sales organization as well as through various OEM partners, distributors and resellers. See Note 8 for 
segment, major customer and geographical information.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the 
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements  and  the  reported  amounts  of  revenue  and  expenses  during  the  reporting  period. Actual  results 
could differ from those estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes may occur in the near term that would 
affect management’s estimates with respect to assets and liabilities.

In January 2018 the Company adopted a plan to discontinue offering radiation therapy professional services 
to practices that provide the Company’s electronic brachytherapy solution for the treatment of non-melanoma 
skin cancer under the subscription service model within the Therapy Segment. 

(b) Principles of Consolidation

The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  the  Company  and  its  wholly  owned 
subsidiaries: Xoft, Inc. and Xoft Solutions, LLC. All material inter-company transactions and balances have 
been eliminated in consolidation.

(c) Cash and cash equivalents

The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as all bank accounts, money market funds, deposits and 
other  money  market  instruments  with  original  maturities  of  90  days  or  less,  which  are  unrestricted  as  to 
withdrawal. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may 
exceed federally insured limits. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances. 
Insurance coverage is $250,000 per depositor at each financial institution, and the Company’s non-interest 
bearing  cash  balances  exceed  federally  insured  limits.  Interest-bearing  amounts  on  deposit  in  excess  of 
federally insured limits at December 31, 2017 approximated $8.5 million.

(d) Financial instruments

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and notes 
payable. Due to their short term nature and market rates of interest, the carrying amounts of the financial 
instruments approximated fair value as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.

(e) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. Credit limits are established 
through a process of reviewing the financial history and stability of each customer. The Company performs 
continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral.

The Company’s policy is to maintain allowances for estimated losses from the inability of its customers to 
make  required  payments.  The  Company’s  senior  management  reviews  accounts  receivable  on  a  periodic 
basis to determine if any receivables may potentially be uncollectible. The Company includes any accounts 
receivable balances that it determines may likely be uncollectible, along with a general reserve for estimated 
probable losses based on historical experience, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. An amount 
would be written off against the allowance after all attempts to collect the receivable had failed. Based on the 
information available, the Company believes the allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2017 
and 2016 is adequate.

The following table summarizes the allowance for doubtful accounts for the three years ended December 31, 
2017 (in thousands):

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined by the first-in, first-out 
method. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and records an allowance for excess 
and/or obsolete inventory primarily based upon the estimated usage of its inventory as well as other factors. 
At  December  31,  2017  and  2016,  inventories  consisted  of  the  following  (in  thousands),  which  includes 
an  inventory  reserve  of  approximately  $1.2  million  and  $0.3  million  as  December  31,  2017  and  2016, 
respectively.

(h) Goodwill

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350-20, “Intangibles - Goodwill 
and Other”, (“ASC 350-20”), the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and between 
annual tests if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting 
unit is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit.

Factors  the  Company  considers  important,  which  could  trigger  an  impairment  of  such  asset,  include  the 
following:

•	
•	
•	
•	
•	

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;
significant changes in the manner or use of the assets or the strategy for the Company’s overall business;
significant negative industry or economic trends;
significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period; and
a decline in the Company’s market capitalization below net book value.

The  Company  records  an  impairment  charge  when  such  assessment  indicates  that  the  fair  value  of  a 
reporting unit was less than the carrying value. In evaluating potential impairments outside of the annual 
measurement date, judgment is required in determining whether an event has occurred that may impair the 
value of goodwill or intangible assets. The Company utilizes either discounted cash flow models or other 
valuation  models,  such  as  comparative  transactions  and  market  multiples,  to  determine  the  fair  value  of 
reporting units. The Company makes assumptions about future cash flows, future operating plans, discount 
rates, comparable companies, market multiples, purchase price premiums and other factors in those models. 
Different assumptions and judgment determinations could yield different conclusions that would result in an 
impairment charge to income in the period that such change or determination was made.

In January 2018 the Company adopted a plan to discontinue offering radiation therapy professional services 
to practices that provide the Company’s electronic brachytherapy solution for the treatment of non-melanoma 
skin cancer under the subscription service model within the Therapy Segment. As result, the Company will 
no longer offer the subscription service model to customers. Based on the decision to discontinue offering 
radiation therapy professional services within the Therapy Segment, the Company revised its forecasts related 
to the Therapy segment, which the Company deemed to be a triggering event.

The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test 
for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”) as of September 30, 2017 which affected both the third quarter 
and fourth quarter impairment tests. ASU 2017-04 specifies that goodwill impairment is the amount by which 
a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. In 
accordance with the standard, the fair value of the Therapy reporting unit as of the fourth quarter was $0.1 
million and the carrying value was $2.1 million. The deficiency exceeded the carry value of goodwill and 
the balance of $1.7 million was recorded as an impairment charge in the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

As a result of the underperformance of the Therapy reporting unit as compared to expected future results, 
the Company determined there was a triggering event in the third quarter of 2017. As a result, the Company

completed  an  interim  impairment  assessment.  The  interim  test  resulted  in  the  fair  value  of  the  Therapy 
reporting unit being less than the carrying value of the reporting unit. The fair value of the Therapy reporting 
unit was $3.5 million and the carrying value was $7.5 million. The deficiency of $4.0 million was recorded 
as an impairment charge in the third quarter ended September 30, 2017. The Company did not identify a 
triggering event within the Detection reporting unit and accordingly did not perform an interim test.

As a result of external factors and general uncertainty related to reimbursement for non-melanoma skin cancer 
and  in  conjunction  with  the  long-lived  asset  impairment  testing,  the  Company  performed  an  impairment 
assessment  of  the  Therapy  reporting  unit  as  of  June  30,  2015. As  calculated  under  the  prior  method  of 
determining goodwill impairments, the Step 2 test resulted in an approximate fair value of goodwill of $5.7 
million which resulted in a goodwill impairment loss of $14.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

The Company determines the fair value of reporting units based on the present value of estimated future 
cash flows, discounted at an appropriate risk adjusted rate. This approach was selected as it measures the 
income producing assets, primarily technology and customer relationships. This method estimates the fair 
value based upon the ability to generate future cash flows, which is particularly applicable when future profit 
margins and growth are expected to vary significantly from historical operating results.

The Company uses internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and includes an estimate of long-term future 
growth rates based on the most recent views of the long-term forecast for the reporting unit. Accordingly, 
actual results can differ from those assumed in the forecasts. Discount rates are derived from a capital asset 
pricing model and analyzing published rates for industries relevant to the reporting unit to estimate the cost 
of equity financing. The Company uses discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty 
inherent in the respective businesses and in the internally developed forecasts.

Other significant assumptions include terminal value margin rates, future capital expenditures, and changes 
in  future  working  capital  requirements.  While  there  are  inherent  uncertainties  related  to  the  assumptions 
used and to the application of these assumptions to this analysis, the income approach provides a reasonable 
estimate of the fair value of the Therapy reporting unit.

The Company performed the annual impairment assessment at October 1, 2017 and compared the fair value 
of each of reporting unit to its carrying value as of this date. Fair value exceeded the carrying value for the 
Detection reporting unit, and the carrying value approximated fair value of the Therapy reporting unit after 
the impairment as of September 30, 2017. The carrying values of the reporting units were determined based 
on an allocation of our assets and liabilities through specific allocation of certain assets and liabilities, to the 
reporting units and an apportionment of the remaining net assets based on the relative size of the reporting 
units’ revenues and operating expenses compared to the Company as a whole. The determination of reporting 
units also requires management judgment.

The Company determines the fair values for each reporting unit using a weighting of the income approach 
and the market approach. For purposes of the income approach, fair value is determined based on the present 
value  of  estimated  future  cash  flows,  discounted  at  an  appropriate  risk  adjusted  rate. The  Company  uses 
internal forecasts to estimate future cash flows and includes estimates of long-term future growth rates based 
on our most recent views of the long-term forecast for each segment. Accordingly, actual results can differ 
from  those  assumed  in  our  forecasts.  Discount  rates  are  derived  from  a  capital  asset  pricing  model  and 
by  analyzing  published  rates  for  industries  relevant  to  our  reporting  units  to  estimate  the  cost  of  equity 
financing. The Company uses discount rates that are commensurate with the risks and uncertainty inherent in 
the respective businesses and in our internally developed forecasts.

In  the  market  approach,  the  Company  uses  a  valuation  technique  in  which  values  are  derived  based  on 
market prices of publicly traded companies with similar operating characteristics and industries. A market 
approach allows for comparison to actual market transactions and multiples. It can be somewhat limited in its 
application because the population of potential comparable publicly-traded companies can be limited due to 
differing characteristics of the comparative business and ours, as well as market data may not be available for

divisions within larger conglomerates or non-public subsidiaries that could otherwise qualify as comparable, 
and the specific circumstances surrounding a market transaction (e.g., synergies between the parties, terms 
and conditions of the transaction, etc.) may be different or irrelevant with respect to the business. 

The Company corroborates the total fair values of the reporting units using a market capitalization approach; 
however, this approach cannot be used to determine the fair value of each reporting unit value. The blend of 
the income approach and market approach is more closely aligned to the business profile of the Company, 
including markets served and products available. In addition, required rates of return, along with uncertainties 
inherent in the forecast of future cash flows, are reflected in the selection of the discount rate. In addition, 
under the blended approach, reasonably likely scenarios and associated sensitivities can be developed for 
alternative future states that may not be reflected in an observable market price. The Company will assess 
each valuation methodology based upon the relevance and availability of the data at the time the valuation is 
performed and weights the methodologies appropriately.

In April 2015, the Company acquired VuComp’s M-Vu® Breast Density product for $1.7 million. The product 
has  been  integrated  into  the  Company’s  Powerlook AMP  system,  which  is  a  component  of  the  Detection 
reporting unit. The Company determined that the acquisition was a business combination and accordingly 
recorded goodwill of $0.8 million.

In  January  2016,  the  Company  completed  the  acquisition  of  VuComp’s  M-Vu  CAD  and  other  assets  for 
$6,000.  The  customers,  related  technology  and  clinical  data  acquired  are  being  used  for  the  Company’s 
Cancer Detection products and the Company recorded goodwill of $293,000 to the Detection segment. 

In  December  2016,  the  Company  entered  into  an  Asset  Purchase  Agreement  with  Invivo  Corporation. 
The Company conveyed to Buyer all right, title and interest to certain intellectual property relating to the 
VersaVue Software and the DynaCAD product and related assets. As a result of the agreement, the Company 
determined that it had assets held for sale as of December 31, 2016 and the sale constituted the sale of a 
business. As of December 31, 2016, the Company allocated $394,000 of goodwill to assets held for sale. The 
allocation was based on the fair value of the assets sold relative to the fair value of the Detection reporting 
unit as of the date of the agreement.

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, (“ASC 360”), the Company 
assesses long-lived assets for impairment if events and circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that 
the fair value of the asset group is less than the carrying value of the asset group. 

ASC 360-10-35 uses “events and circumstances” criteria to determine when, if at all, an asset (or asset group) 
is evaluated for recoverability. Thus, there is no set interval or frequency for recoverability evaluation. In 
accordance with ASC 360-10-35-21, the following factors are examples of events or changes in circumstances 
that indicate the carrying amount of an asset (asset group) may not be recoverable and thus is to be evaluated 
for recoverability. 

•	 A significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset (asset group);
•	 A significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset (asset group) is being 

used or in its physical condition;

•	 A significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a 

long-lived asset (asset group), including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator;

•	 An accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or 

construction of a long-lived asset (asset group);

•	 A current period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or 
a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset 
(asset group).

In accordance with ASC 360-10-35-17, if the carrying amount of an asset or asset group (in use or under 
development) is evaluated and found not to be fully recoverable (the carrying amount exceeds the estimated 
gross, undiscounted cash flows from use and disposition), then an impairment loss must be recognized. The

impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the asset’s (or asset group’s) fair value. 
The Company determined the “Asset Group” to be the assets of the Therapy segment, which the Company 
considered to be the lowest level for which the identifiable cash flows were largely independent of the cash 
flows of other assets and liabilities.

The Company completed an interim goodwill impairment assessment for the Therapy reporting unit in the 
third quarter of 2017 and noted that there was an impairment of goodwill. As a result, the Company determined 
this was a triggering event to review long-lived assets for impairment. Accordingly, the Company completed 
an analysis pursuant to ASC 360-10-35-17 and determined that the carrying value of the asset group exceeded 
the undiscounted cash flows, and that long-lived assets were impaired. The Company recorded long-lived 
asset impairment charges of approximately $0.7 million in the third quarter ended September 30, 2017 based 
on the deficiency between the book value of the assets and the fair value as determined in the analysis. 

The Company also completed a goodwill assessment in the fourth quarter of 2017, and in connection with 
that assessment, the Company completed an analysis pursuant to ASC 360-10-35-17 and determined that the 
undiscounted cash flows exceeded the carrying value of the asset group and that long-lived assets were not 
impaired. At December 31, 2017, the long-lived assets in the respective asset groups are recorded at their 
current fair values.

The Company did not record any impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2016.

As a result of external factors and general uncertainty related to reimbursement for the treatment of NMSC, 
the Company evaluated the long-lived assets of the Therapy segment and reviewed them for impairment in 
2015. In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter ended June 30, 
2015, the Company completed its analysis pursuant to ASC 360-10-35-17 and determined that the carrying 
value of the Asset Group was approximately $36.8 million, which exceeded the undiscounted cash flows by 
approximately $2.8 million. Accordingly the Company completed the Step 2 analysis to determine the fair 
value of the asset group. The Company recorded long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $13.4 
million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2015 and as a result the long-lived assets in the Asset Group 
were recorded at their current fair values.

A  considerable  amount  of  judgment  and  assumptions  are  required  in  performing  the  impairment  tests, 
principally in  determining the fair value of  the Asset  Group. While the Company  believes the  judgments 
and assumptions are reasonable, different assumptions could change the estimated fair values, and, therefore 
additional impairment charges could be required. Significant negative industry or economic trends, disruptions 
to the Company’s business, loss of significant customers, inability to effectively integrate acquired businesses, 
unexpected significant changes or planned changes in use of the assets may adversely impact the assumptions 
used in the fair value estimates and ultimately result in future impairment charges.

(j) Revenue Recognition

The  Company  recognizes  revenue  primarily  from  the  sale  of  products,  services  and  supplies.  Revenue  is 
recognized  when  delivery  has  occurred,  persuasive  evidence  of  an  arrangement  exists,  fees  are  fixed  or 
determinable  and  collectability  of  the  related  receivable  is  probable.  For  product  revenue,  delivery  has 
occurred upon shipment provided title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. Services and supplies 
revenue are considered to be delivered as the services are performed or over the estimated life of the supply 
agreement.

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its digital, film-based CAD and cancer therapy products 
and  services  in  accordance  with  Financial Accounting  Standards  Board  (“FASB”) Accounting  Standards 

F-14

Codification  (“ASC”)  Update  No.  2009-13,  “Multiple-Deliverable  Revenue  Arrangements”  (“ASU  2009-
13”) and ASC Update No. 2009-14, “Certain Arrangements That Contain Software Elements” (“ASU 2009-
14”) and ASC 985-605, “Software” (“ASC 985-605”). Revenue from the sale of certain CAD products is 
recognized in accordance with ASC 840 “Leases” (“ASC 840”). For multiple element arrangements, revenue 
is allocated to all deliverables based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, a hierarchy is used 
to determine the selling price to be used for allocating revenue to deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific 
objective evidence of fair value (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”), and (iii) best 
estimate of the selling price (“BESP”). VSOE generally exists only when the deliverable is sold separately 
and  is  the  price  actually  charged  for  that  deliverable. The  process  for  determining  BESP  for  deliverables 
without VSOE or TPE considers multiple factors including relative selling prices; competitive prices in the 
marketplace,  and  management  judgment,  however,  these  may  vary  depending  upon  the  unique  facts  and 
circumstances related to each deliverable.

The  Company  uses  customer  purchase  orders  that  are  subject  to  the  Company’s  terms  and  conditions  or, 
in the case of an Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) are governed by distribution agreements. In 
accordance with the Company’s distribution agreements, the OEM does not have a right of return, and title 
and risk of loss passes to the OEM upon shipment. The Company generally ships Free On Board shipping 
point and uses shipping documents and third-party proof of delivery to verify delivery and transfer of title. In 
addition, the Company assesses whether collection is probable by considering a number of factors, including 
past transaction history with the customer and the creditworthiness of the customer, as obtained from third 
party credit references.

If the terms of the sale include customer acceptance provisions and compliance with those provisions cannot be 
demonstrated, all revenue is deferred and not recognized until such acceptance occurs. The Company considers 
all relevant facts and circumstances in determining when to recognize revenue, including contractual obligations 
to the customer, the customer’s post-delivery acceptance provisions, if any, and the installation process.

The Company has determined that iCAD’s digital and film based sales generally follow the guidance of FASB 
ASC Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”) as the software has been considered essential to the 
functionality of the product per the guidance of ASU 2009-14. Typically, the responsibility for the installation 
process  lies  with  the  OEM  partner.  On  occasion,  when  iCAD  is  responsible  for  product  installation,  the 
installation element is considered a separate unit of accounting because the delivered product has stand-alone 
value to the customer. In these instances, the Company allocates the revenue to the deliverables based on the 
framework established within ASU 2009-13. Therefore, the installation and training revenue is recognized 
as the services are performed according to the BESP of the element. Revenue from the digital and film based 
equipment when there is installation, is recognized based on the relative selling price allocation of the BESP, 
when delivered.

Revenue from certain CAD products is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605. Sales of this product 
include training, and the Company has established VSOE for this element. Product revenue is determined 
based on the residual value in the arrangement and is recognized when delivered. Revenue for training is 
deferred and recognized when the training has been completed.

Sales  of  the  Company’s  Therapy  segment  products  typically  include  a  controller,  accessories,  source 
agreements and services. The Company allocates revenue to the deliverables in the arrangement based on 
the  BESP  in  accordance  with ASU  2009-13.  Product  revenue  is  generally  recognized  when  the  product 
has been delivered and service and/or supplies revenue is typically recognized over the life of the service 
and/or supplies agreement. The Company includes in service and supplies revenue the following: the sale 
of physics and management services, the lease of electronic brachytherapy equipment, development fees, 
supplies and the right to use the Company’s AxxentHub software. Physics and management services revenue 
and  development  fees  are  considered  to  be  delivered  as  the  services  are  performed  or  over  the  estimated 
life of the agreement. The Company typically bills items monthly over the life of the agreement except for 
development fees, which are generally billed in advance or over a 12 month period and the fee for treatment 
supplies which is generally billed in advance.

(j) Revenue Recognition (continued)

The Company defers revenue from the sale of certain service contracts and recognizes the related revenue on 
a straight-line basis in accordance with ASC Topic 605-20, “Services”. The Company provides for estimated 
warranty costs on original product warranties at the time of sale.

(k) Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of the costs of products purchased for resale, cost relating to service including costs 
of service contracts to maintain equipment after the warranty period, inbound freight and duty, manufacturing, 
warehousing,  material  movement,  inspection,  scrap,  rework,  depreciation  and  in-house  product  warranty 
repairs,  amortization  of  acquired  technology  and  medical  device  tax.  Included  in  cost  of  revenue  for  the 
year ended December 31, 2016 is a credit of $491,000 related to a refund of the Medical Device Excise Tax 
(“MDET”). The MDET refund of $491,000 for the year ended December 31, 2016 related to refunds of the 
MDET for the periods from April 2013 to December 2015. The MDET refund was not material to any prior 
period or the current period; accordingly, prior periods have not been restated.

(l) Warranty Costs 

The Company provides for the estimated cost of standard product warranty against defects in material and 
workmanship based on historical warranty trends, including the cost of product returns during the warranty 
period. Warranty provisions and claims for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, were as 
follows (in thousands):

ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 respectively.

(m) Engineering and Product Development Costs

Engineering and product development costs relate to research and development efforts including Company 
sponsored clinical trials which are expensed as incurred.

(n) Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 
2017, 2016 and 2015 was approximately $990,000, $955,000 and $950,000 respectively.

(o) Net Loss per Common Share

The Company follows FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”, which requires the presentation of both 
basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statements of operations. The Company’s basic net 
loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock 
outstanding  for  the  period  and,  if  there  are  dilutive  securities,  diluted  income  per  share  is  computed  by 
including common stock equivalents which includes shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, net 
of shares assumed to have been purchased with the proceeds, using the treasury stock method.

Restricted common stock can be issued to directors, executives or employees of the Company and are subject 
to time-based vesting. These potential shares were excluded from the computation of basic loss per share as 
these shares are not considered outstanding until vested.

(p) Income Taxes

The  Company  follows  the  liability  method  under  ASC  Topic  740,  “Income  Taxes”,  (“ASC  740”).  The 
primary objectives of accounting for taxes under ASC 740 are to (a) recognize the amount of tax payable for 
the current year and (b) recognize the amount of deferred tax liability or asset for the future tax consequences 
of events that have been reflected in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. The Company has 
provided a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016, as it is 
more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any subsequent changes in the valuation 
allowance will be recorded through operations in the provision (benefit) for income taxes.

ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial 
statements  and  prescribes  a  recognition  threshold  and  measurement  attribute  for  the  financial  statement 
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740-10 also 
provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, disclosure and transition.

(q) Stock-Based Compensation 

The Company maintains stock-based incentive plans, under which it provides stock incentives to employees, 
directors  and  contractors.  The  Company  may  grant  to  employees,  directors  and  contractors,  options  to 
purchase common stock at an exercise price equal to the market value of the stock at the date of grant. The

Summary	of	Significant	Accounting	Policies (continued)

(q) Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

Company may grant restricted stock to employees and directors. The underlying shares of the restricted stock 
grant are not issued until the shares vest, and compensation expense is based on the stock price of the shares 
at the time of grant. The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” 
(“ASC 718”), for all stock-based compensation. Under this application, the Company is required to record 
compensation expense over the vesting period for all awards granted.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value stock options which requires extensive 
use of accounting judgment and financial estimates, including estimates of the expected term participants will 
retain their vested stock options before exercising them, the estimated volatility of its common stock price 
over the expected term, the risk free rate, expected dividend yield, and the number of options that will be 
forfeited prior to the completion of their vesting requirements.

The fair value of restricted stock is determined based on the stock price of the underlying option on the date 
of the grant. The Company granted performance based restricted stock during 2016 based on achievement 
of  certain  revenue  targets.  Compensation  cost  for  performance  based  restricted  stock  requires  significant 
judgment regarding probability of the performance objectives and compensation cost is re-measured at every 
reporting period. As a result compensation cost could vary significantly during the performance measurement 
period.

Application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different estimates of the fair value of 
stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements 
of Operations.

(r) Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures” 
(“ASC 820”). This topic defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally 
accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined 
under ASC 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an 
exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction 
between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under 
ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The 
standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered 
observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following:

	 Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
	 Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted 
prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs 
that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term 
of the assets or liabilities.

	 Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are 

significant to the fair value

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is 
significant to the fair value measurement. 

The Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis relate to the Company’s money 
market accounts.

The money market funds are included in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying balance sheet, and 
are considered a level 1 investment as they are valued at quoted market prices in active markets.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis 

Certain assets, including long-lived assets and goodwill, are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. 
These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be impaired. In 2015 the Company recorded 
a $27.4 million impairment consisting of $14.0 million related to goodwill and $13.4 million related to long-
lived  assets  as  discussed  in  Note  (h)  and  Note  (i)  and  re-measured  long-lived  assets  and  goodwill  of  the 
Therapy reporting unit at fair value as of the impairment date. In 2017 the Company recorded a $6.7 million 
impairment consisting of $5.7 million related to goodwill and $1.0 million related to long-lived and other 
assets. The fair values of long-lived assets and goodwill were measured using Level 3 inputs.

(s) Recently Issued and Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), 
or ASU  2014-09,  which  superseded  nearly  all  existing  revenue  recognition  guidance  under  U.S.  GAAP. 
Since then, the FASB has also issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), 
Principals versus Agent Considerations and ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 
606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which further elaborate on the original ASU No. 
2014-09. The core principle of these updates is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are 
transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled 
for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in 
doing so, more judgments and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are 
required under existing U.S. GAAP. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date 
to January 1, 2018, with early adoption to be permitted as of the original effective date of January 1, 2017. 
Once this standard becomes effective, companies may use either of the following transition methods: (i) a 
full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each reporting period with the option 
to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially 
adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures).

The Company has performed an assessment of its revenue streams and customer classes. During the fourth 
quarter  of  2017,  the  Company  completed  its  implementation  plan  and  finalized  contract  reviews  and 
detailed policy drafting. The Company will adopt the guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the modified 
retrospective  approach,  by  recognizing  the  cumulative  effect  of  initially  applying  the  new  standard  as  an 
increase to the opening balance of retained earnings. We expect this adjustment to be less than $0.1 million 
and do not expect a material impact on our revenue recognition practices on an ongoing basis. The Company

will  adopt  certain  practical  expedients  and  make  certain  policy  elections  related  to  the  accounting  for 
significant finance components, sales taxes, shipping and handling, costs to obtain a contract, and immaterial 
promised goods or services, which will mitigate certain impacts of adopting Topic 606. 

The immaterial impact of adopting Topic 606 primarily relates to (a) the deferral of commissions on our 
long-term service arrangements and warranty periods greater than one year, which previously were expensed 
as incurred but under the amendments to ASC 340-40 will generally be capitalized and amortized over the 
period of contract performance or a longer period if renewals are expected and the renewal commission is 
not commensurate with the initial commission, (b) a small number of open contracts which include extended 
payment  terms  where  the  pattern  and  timing  of  revenue  recognition  will  change,  and  (c)  policy  changes 
related to the determination of stand-alone selling prices of performance obligations and resulting allocation 
of the transaction price among performance obligations with differing patterns of transfer of control to the 
customer in contracts with multiple deliverables. Additionally, sales of certain CAD products contain lease 
components  in  which  the  Company  leases  equipment  and  provides  professional  services  to  hospitals  and 
imaging centers. As lease contracts are not within the scope of Topic 606, the Company will continue to 
account  for  the  lease  components  of  these  arrangements  in  accordance  with ASC  840  “Leases”  and  the 
remaining consideration will be allocated to the other performance obligations identified in accordance with 
Topic  606.  The  consideration  allocated  to  the  lease  component  will  be  recognized  as  lease  revenue  on  a 
straight-line basis over the specified term of the agreement. Revenue for the non-lease components, such as 
service contracts, will also be recognized over time.

The  impact  to  our  results  is  not  material  because  the  analysis  of  our  contracts  under  the  new  revenue 
recognition standard supports the recognition of revenue at a point in time for product sales and over time 
for service contracts (as well as for the lease components of certain CAD products), which is consistent with 
our current revenue recognition model. A significant portion of our revenue is generated from sales of cancer 
detection products and cancer therapy systems, and revenue is recognized when delivery has occurred as our 
performance obligation would be complete. The revenue components that are not primarily associated with 
the sale of these products, such as physics and management services, development fees, and supplies, are also 
not expected to be materially impacted by the adoption of the new standard. 

For performance obligations where the transfer of control occurs over-time, a time-based measure of progress 
(e.g., straight-line) continues to best depict the transfer of control of services to the customer for fixed fee 
service contracts and source agreements that represent stand-ready obligations to make goods or services 
available for the customer to use as and when the customer decides. For professional service contracts entered 
into with customers on a time and materials basis, an input-based measure of progress based on the number 
of days incurred or hours expended continues to best depict our progress toward complete satisfaction of the 
performance obligation. In addition, the number of our performance obligations under the new standard is not 
materially different from our contract deliverables under the existing standard. Lastly, the accounting for the 
estimate of variable consideration is not materially different compared to our current practice.

We  also  do  not  expect  the  standard  to  have  a  material  impact  on  our  consolidated  balance  sheet.  The 
immaterial impact primarily relates to capitalization of commissions on our long-term service arrangements 
and warranty periods greater than one year and reclassifications among financial statement accounts to align 
with the new standard. Most notably, capitalized commissions will be classified as deferred contract costs and 
advance payments and deferred revenue will be combined and reclassified as contract liabilities. Our contract 
balances will be reported in a net contract asset or liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end 
of each reporting period.

Adoption of the standard would result in an increase in other current and long-term assets of approximately 
$0.1 million as of December 31, 2017, driven by capitalization of commissions on our long-term service 
arrangements and warranty periods greater than one year, as well as the reclassification of approximately 
$0.4 million in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2017 related to the lease components of certain CAD 
products which are outside the scope of Topic 606 to accrued expenses.

There are also certain considerations related to internal control over financial reporting that are associated with 
implementing Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating its internal control framework over revenue 
recognition and making adjustments to the framework to enable the preparation of financial information and 
to obtain and disclose the information required under Topic 606. This evaluation is not expected to result in 
any material changes to the Company’s existing internal control framework over revenue recognition.

In  February  2016,  the  FASB  issued ASU  No.  2016-02,  “Leases”. The  standard  establishes  a  right-of-use 
(“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for 
all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with 
classification  affecting  the  pattern  of  expense  recognition  in  the  income  statement.  The  new  standard  is 
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal 
years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases 
existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial 
statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending 
adoption of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements, however the adoption of the standard 
is expected to increase both assets and liabilities for leases that would previously have been off-balance sheet 
operating leases.

On January 1, 2017, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards 
Update  (“ASU”)  No.  2016-09,  “Compensation—Stock  Compensation”  (Topic  718):  Improvements  to 
Employee  Share-Based  Payment  Accounting  (“ASU  2016-09”),  which  simplifies  several  aspects  of 
the  accounting  for  employee  share-based  payment  transactions,  including  income  taxes  consequences, 
classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification in the statement of cash flows. Under 
ASU 2016-09, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in 
the income statement, and excess tax benefits are recognized regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes 
payable  in  the  current  period. The  tax  effects  of  exercised  or  vested  awards  are  treated  as  discrete  items 
in the reporting period in which they occur. As a result of the adoption, the net operating loss deferred tax 
assets increased by $1.9 million and are offset by a corresponding increase in the valuation allowance. The 
Company has elected to continue to estimate and apply a forfeiture rate based on awards expected to vest.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)”, a consensus of 
the  FASB’s  Emerging  Issues  Task  Force.  This  update  is  intended  to  reduce  diversity  in  practice  in  how 
certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The update requires cash payments for debt 
prepayment  or  debt  extinguishment  costs  to  be  classified  as  cash  outflows  for  financing  activities.  It  also 
requires cash payments made soon after an acquisition’s consummation date (approximately three months or 
less) to be classified as cash outflows for investing activities. Payments made thereafter should be classified 
as cash outflows for financing activities up to the amount of the original contingent consideration liability. 
Payments made in excess of the amount of the original contingent consideration liability should be classified 
as  cash  outflows  for  operating  activities.  The  amendment  is  effective  for  annual  periods  beginning  after 
December  15,  2017,  and  interim  periods  thereafter.  Early  adoption  is  permitted.  The  Company  does  not 
expect the adoption of this amendment will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, “Restricted Cash”, which 
requires  entities  to  show  the  changes  in  the  total  of  cash,  cash  equivalents,  restricted  cash  and  restricted 
cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between 
cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. 
The  amendments  in  this  update  should  be  applied  using  a  retrospective  transition  method  to  each  period 
presented. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods 
within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption 
of this standard will change the presentation of our statement of cash flows to include our restricted cash 
balance with the non-restricted cash balances. We do not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2016-18 will 
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In  February  2017,  the  FASB  issued  ASU  2017-04,  “Simplifying  the  Test  for  Goodwill  Impairment”,  to 
simplify how all entities assess goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment 

F-21

test. As amended, the goodwill impairment test will consist of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting 
unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by 
which the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value. This update is effective for annual periods 
beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted for 
interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company 
elected to early adopt this standard in connection with the goodwill impairment analysis completed during 
the third quarter of 2017.

Acquisitions

Acquisition of VuComp Cancer detection portfolio

On January 13, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of the VuCOMP cancer detection portfolio, 
including  the  M-Vu  computer  aided  detection  (CAD)  technology  platform.  The  acquisition  includes  an 
extensive library of related clinical data, VuCOMP’s key personnel and the customer base that existed at 
closing of the transaction. The acquisition of the key personnel and clinical data is expected to contribute to 
the ongoing development of the Company’s CAD technology which will be used for future cancer detection 
research and patents. As the Company considered this to be a business combination, the assets were valued 
in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”).

As noted below, the Company acquired VuComp’s M-Vu Breast Density product in April 2015. In connection 
with the diligence of the January 2016 acquisition, VuComp disclosed that it had previously entered into a 
license agreement pursuant to which it issued an irrevocable, royalty-free worldwide license to a third party. 
On December 24, 2015, iCAD notified VuComp of a claim under the April 2015 asset purchase agreement 
based on the disclosure of the third party license agreement, which iCAD believed constituted a breach of 
VuComp’s representation as to its exclusive ownership of its intellectual property at the time of the April 
2015 transaction. In connection with the purchase of the VuComp cancer detection portfolio, the Company 
provided a release of the aforementioned claim. The Company determined that this claim was a component 
of the purchase price. The Company determined the value of litigation settlement as the excess of the fair 
value of the business acquired over the cash consideration paid. As a result the Company recorded a gain on 
litigation settlement of $249,000 in the first quarter of 2016, which is a component of the purchase price as 
noted below:

Acquisitions (continued)

The amount allocated to the acquired assets was estimated primarily through the use of discounted cash flow 
valuation techniques. Appraisal assumptions utilized under this method include a forecast of estimated future 
net cash flows, as well as discounting the future net cash flows to their present value. The following is a

The assets obtained in the acquisition of VuComp’s M-Vu Cancer detection portfolio (including the M-Vu 
breast  density  product)  and  the  anticipated  future  revenues  are  included  in  the  Detection  segment  and, 
accordingly, the goodwill resulting from the purchase price allocation is included in goodwill of the Detection 
segment. The Company has tax basis in the goodwill that resulted from the VuComp acquisition of $293,000 
which is amortized over a 15 year period.

Acquisition of VuComp M-Vu Breast Density Assets:

On April  29,  2015,  pursuant  to  the  terms  of  the Asset  Purchase Agreement  with VuComp,  the  Company 
purchased  VuComp’s  M-Vu  Breast  Density  asset  for  $1,700,000  in  cash.  The  Company  considered  the 
acquisition to be an acquisition of a business as the Company acquired the Breast Density product and certain 
customer liabilities which were considered to be an integrated set of activities at acquisition. Under the terms 
of the agreement, the Company acquired the breast density intellectual property product, which has been 
integrated with the Company’s PowerLook Advanced Mammography Platform (AMP). PowerLook AMP is 
a modular solution designed to provide advanced tools for breast disease detection and analysis, including 
CAD  for  tomosynthesis. As  the  Company  considered  this  to  be  a  business  combination,  the  assets  were 
valued in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”). 

The amount allocated to the acquired assets was estimated primarily through the use of discounted cash flow 
valuation techniques. Appraisal assumptions utilized under this method include a forecast of estimated future 
net cash flows, as well as discounting the future net cash flows to their present value. The acquired technology 
is  being  amortized  over  the  estimated  useful  life  of  approximately  eight  years  and  nine  months  from  the 
closing of the transaction. The following is a summary of the allocation of the total purchase price based on 
the estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition and the amortizable life (in thousands):

The assets obtained in the acquisition of VuComp’s M-Vu Breast Density product and the anticipated future 
revenues are included in the Detection segment and, accordingly, the goodwill resulting from the purchase price 
allocation is included in goodwill of the Detection segment. The goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes.

Sale of MRI Assets

In  December  2016,  the  Company  entered  into  an Asset  Purchase Agreement  with  Invivo  Corporation.  In 
accordance with the agreement, the Company sold to Invivo all right, title and interest to certain intellectual 
property relating to the Company’s VersaVue Software and DynaCAD product and related assets for $3.2 
million. The Company closed the transaction on January 30, 2017 less a holdback reserve of $350,000 for a 
net of approximately $2.9 million. The holdback reserve of $350,000 has been recorded as an asset in other 
assets and will be paid to the Company within eighteen months from the closing date, less any amounts, if 
any, due and payable or reserved under the indemnification provisions in the Asset Purchase agreement.

The  Company  determined  the  sale  constituted  the  sale  of  a  business  in  accordance  with ASC  805.  The 
Company performed an evaluation to determine if the sale constituted discontinued operations and concluded 
that the sale did not represent a major strategic shift, and accordingly it was not considered to be discontinued 
operations. In connection with the transaction, the Company allocated $394,000 of goodwill which was a 
component of the gain on the sale. The allocation was based on the fair value of the assets sold relative to the 
fair value of the Detection reporting unit as of the date of the agreement, based on the guidance from ASC 
350-20-40-3.

In connection with the sale the Company agreed to provide certain transition services to Invivo. The fair 
value of the transition services were determined based on the cost to provide plus a reasonable profit margin 
and have been recognized as revenue over the term of approximately ninety days from the closing date. The 
Company recorded a gain of $2.5 million as of January 30, 2017. The components of the gain on the sale are

Financing Arrangements 

On August 7, 2017, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, which was modified by the 
First Loan Modification Agreement dated March 22, 2018 (the “Loan Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank 
(the  “Bank”)  that  provides  an  initial  term  loan  facility  (amounts  borrowed  thereunder,  the  “Term  Loan”) 
of $6.0 million and a $4.0 million revolving line of credit (amounts borrowed thereunder, the “Revolving 
Loans”). The Company also has the option to borrow an additional $3.0 million Term Loan under the Loan 
Agreement, subject to meeting a Detection revenue minimum of at least $21.5 million for a trailing twelve 
month period ending prior to July 30, 2019.

Financing Arrangements (continued)

The Company will begin repayment of the first tranche of the Term Loan on September 1, 2018 in 36 equal 
monthly installments of principal. If the adjusted EBITDA minimum of $(750,000) for a trailing three month 
period  ending  between  March  22,  2018  and  July  31,  2018  (the  “Adjusted  EBITDA  Event”)  is  met,  the 
Company will begin repayment of the Term Loans beginning on March 1, 2019 in which case the Company 
would make 30 equal monthly installments of principal. The Company will begin repayment of the second 
tranche of the Term Loan on October 1, 2019 and make 30 equal monthly installments of principal.

The  outstanding  Revolving  Loans  will  accrue  interest  at  a  floating  per  annum  rate  equal  to  1.50%  above 
the prime rate for periods when the ratio of the Company’s unrestricted cash to the Company’s outstanding 
liabilities to the Bank plus the amount of the Company’s total liabilities that mature within one year is at least 
1.25 to 1.0. At all other times, the interest rate shall be 0.50% above the prime rate. The outstanding Term 
Loans will accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the prime rate.

The maturity date of the Revolving Loans and the Term Loans is March 1, 2022. However, the maturity date 
will become April 30, 2019, April 30, 2020 or April 30, 2021 if, on or before March 15, 2019, or 2020 or 
2021, as applicable, the Company does not agree in writing to the Detection revenue and adjusted EBITDA 
covenant levels proposed by the Bank with respect to the upcoming applicable calendar year.

If the Revolving Loans are paid in full and the Loan Agreement is terminated prior to the maturity date, 
then the Company will pay to the Bank a termination fee in an amount equal to two percent (2.0%) of the 
maximum revolving line of credit. If the Company prepays the Term Loans prior to the maturity date, then 
the Company will pay to the Bank an amount equal to 1.0%-3.0% of the Term Loans, depending on when 
such Term Loans are repaid. The Loan Agreement requires the Company to maintain net revenues during the 
trailing six month period ending on the last day of each calendar quarter as follows: June 30, 2017 - $10.25 
million; September 30, 2017 - $11.5 million; and December 31, 2017 - $14 million. The Loan Agreement 
requires the Company to maintain minimum detection revenues during the trailing six month period ending 
on the last day of each calendar quarter as follows: March 31, 2018 - $8.622 million; June 30, 2018 - $8.373 
million; September 30, 2018 - $8.648 million and December 31, 2018 - $9.517 million. The Loan Agreement 
requires the Company to maintain adjusted EBITDA during the trailing six month period ending on the last 
day of each calendar quarter as follows: March 31, 2018 - $(4.5 million); June 30, 2018 - $(3.75 million); 
September 30, 2018 - $(1 million) and December 31, 2018 - $1.00. As of December 31, 2017 the Company 
is in compliance with the covenants in the Loan Agreement.

Obligations  to  the  Bank  under  the  Loan Agreement  or  otherwise  are  secured  by  a  first  priority  security 
interest in substantially all of the assets, including intellectual property, accounts, receivables, equipment, 
general intangibles, inventory and investment property, and all of the proceeds and products of the foregoing, 
of each of the Company and Xoft, Inc. and Xoft Solutions LLC, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.

In connection with the Loan Agreement, the Company incurred approximately $74,000 of closing costs. In 
accordance with ASU 2015-03 the closing costs have been deducted from the carrying value of the debt and 
will be amortized over the expected term of 36 months.

The Company has six stock option or stock incentive plans, which are described as follows: 

The 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “2002 Plan”).

The 2002 Plan was adopted by the Company’s stockholders in June 2002. The 2002 Plan provides for the 
granting of non-qualifying and incentive stock options to employees and other persons to purchase up to an 
aggregate of 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The purchase price of each share for which 
an option is granted is determined by the Board of Directors or the Committee appointed by the Board of 
Directors  provided  that  the  purchase  price  of  each  share  for  which  an  incentive  option  is  granted  cannot 
be less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, except for options 
granted  to  10%  stockholders  for  whom  the  exercise  price  cannot  be  less  than  110%  of  the  market  price. 
Incentive options granted to date under the 2002 Plan vest 100% over periods extending from six months 
to five years from the date of grant and expire no later than ten years after the date of grant, except for 10% 
holders whose options expire not later than five years after the date of grant. Non-qualifying options granted 
under the 2002 Plan are generally exercisable over a ten year period, vesting 1/3 each on the first, second, 
and third anniversaries of the date of grant. At December 31, 2017, there are no further options available for 
grant under the 2002 Plan.

The 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”).

The 2004 Plan was adopted by the Company’s stockholders in June 2004. The 2004 Plan provides for the 
grant  of  any  or  all  of  the  following  types  of  awards:  (a)  stock  options,  (b)  restricted  stock,  (c)  deferred 
stock  and  (d)  other  stock-based  awards.  The  2004  Plan  provides  for  the  granting  of  non-qualifying  and 
incentive stock options to employees and other persons to purchase up to an aggregate of 200,000 shares of 
the Company’s common stock. The purchase price of each share for which an option is granted is determined 
by the Board of Directors or the Committee appointed by the Board of Directors provided that the purchase 
price of each share for which an option is granted cannot be less than the fair market value of the Company’s 
common stock on the date of grant, except for incentive options granted to 10% stockholders for whom the 
exercise price cannot be less than 110% of the market price. Incentive options granted under the 2004 Plan 
generally vest 100% over periods extending from the date of grant to five years from the date of grant and 
expire not later than ten years after the date of grant, except for 10% holders whose options expire not later 
than  five  years  after  the  date  of  grant.  Non-qualifying  options  granted  under  the  2004  Plan  are  generally 
exercisable over a ten year period, vesting 1/3 each on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of 
grant. At December 31, 2017, there are no further shares available for grant under the 2004 Plan.

The 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”).

stock  and  (d)  other  stock-based  awards.  The  2005  Plan  provides  for  the  granting  of  non-qualifying  and 
incentive stock options to employees and other persons to purchase up to an aggregate of 120,000 shares of 
the Company’s common stock. The purchase price of each share for which an option is granted is determined 
by the Board of Directors or the Committee appointed by the Board of Directors provided that the purchase 
price of each share for which an option is granted cannot be less than the fair market value of the Company’s 
common stock on the date of grant, except for incentive options granted to 10% stockholders for whom the 
exercise price cannot be less than 110% of the market price. Incentive options granted under the 2005 Plan 
generally vest 100% over periods extending from the date of grant to three years from the date of grant and 
expire not later than five years after the date of grant, except for 10% stockholders whose options expire not 
later than five years after the date of grant. Non-qualifying options granted under the 2005 Plan are generally 
exercisable over a ten year period, vesting 1/3 each on the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of 
grant. At December 31, 2017, there are no further options available for grant under the 2005 Plan.

The 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”).

The  2007  Plan  was  adopted  by  the  Company’s  stockholders  in  July  2007  and  amended  in  June  2009. The 
2007 Plan provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards: (a) stock options, (b) restricted 
stock, (c) deferred stock and (d) other stock-based awards. Awards may be granted singly, in combination, or in 
tandem. Subject to anti-dilution adjustments as provided in the 2007 Plan, (i) the 2007 Plan provides for a total 
of 1,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be available for distribution pursuant to the 2007 Plan, 
and (ii) the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to which stock options, 
restricted stock, deferred stock, or other stock-based awards may be granted to any participant under the 2007 
Plan during any calendar year or part of a year may not exceed 160,000 shares.

The  2007  Plan  provides  that  it  will  be  administered  by  the  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  (“Board”)  or  a 
committee of two or more members of the Board appointed by the Board. The administrator will generally 
have the authority to administer the 2007 Plan, determine participants who will be granted awards under the 
2007 Plan, the size and types of awards, the terms and conditions of awards and the form and content of the 
award agreements representing awards. Awards under the 2007 Plan may be granted to employees, directors, 
consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, only employees of the Company and 
its subsidiaries will be eligible to receive options that are designated as incentive stock options.

With respect to options granted under the 2007 Plan, the exercise price must be at least 100% (110% in the 
case of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder) of the fair market value of the common stock 
subject to the award, determined as of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards are shares of common stock 
that  are  awarded  subject  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  terms  and  conditions  established  by  the  administrator. 
In  general,  awards  that  do  not  require  exercise  may  be  made  in  exchange  for  such  lawful  consideration, 
including services, as determined by the administrator. At December 31, 2017, there were no shares available 
for issuance under the 2007 Plan.

The 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”).

The 2012 Plan was adopted by the Company’s stockholders in May 2012 and amended in May 2014. The 
2012 Plan, as amended, provides for the grant of any or all of the following types of awards: (a) stock options, 
(b)  restricted  stock,  (c)  deferred  stock  and  (d)  other  stock-based  awards. Awards  may  be  granted  singly,  in 
combination, or in tandem. Subject to anti-dilution adjustments as provided in the amended 2012 Plan, (i) the 
amended 2012 Plan provides for a total of 1,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be available 
for distribution pursuant to the amended 2012 Plan, and (ii) the maximum number of shares of the Company’s 
common stock with respect to which stock options, restricted stock, deferred stock, or other stock-based awards 
may be granted to any participant under the amended 2012 Plan during any calendar year or part of a year may 
not exceed 250,000 shares.

The  2012  Plan  provides  that  it  will  be  administered  by  the  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  (“Board”)  or  a 
committee of two or more members of the Board appointed by the Board. The administrator will generally

have the authority to administer the 2012 Plan, determine participants who will be granted awards under the 
2012 Plan, the size and types of awards, the terms and conditions of awards and the form and content of the 
award agreements representing awards. Awards under the 2012 Plan may be granted to employees, directors, 
consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, only employees of the Company and 
its subsidiaries will be eligible to receive options that are designated as incentive stock options.

With respect to options granted under the 2012 Plan, the exercise price must be at least 100% (110% in the 
case of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder) of the fair market value of the common stock 
subject to the award, determined as of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards are shares of common stock 
that  are  awarded  subject  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  terms  and  conditions  established  by  the  administrator. 
In  general,  awards  that  do  not  require  exercise  may  be  made  in  exchange  for  such  lawful  consideration, 
including services, as determined by the administrator. At December 31, 2017, there were 222,377 shares 
available for issuance under the 2012 Plan.

The 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”).

The 2016 Plan was adopted by the Company’s stockholders in May 2016. The 2016 Plan provides for the grant 
of any or all of the following types of awards: (a) non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options, (b) 
stock appreciation rights, (c) restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, (d) unrestricted stock awards, (e) 
cash-based awards, (f) performance share awards and (g) dividend equivalent rights. 

Subject  to  anti-dilution  adjustments  as  provided  in  the  2016  Plan,  (i)  the  2016  Plan  provides  for  a  total  of 
1,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be available for distribution pursuant to the 2016 Plan, 
and (ii) the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock with respect to which stock options 
or stock appreciation rights may be granted to any one individual under the 2016 Plan during any one calendar 
year period may not exceed 1,000,000 shares. No more than 1,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued 
in the form of incentive stock options and no more than 50,000 shares of stock may be issued pursuant to 
awards to non-employee directors.

The  2016  Plan  provides  that  it  will  be  administered  by  the  Company’s  Compensation  Committee.  The 
Compensation Committee has the authority to administer the 2016 Plan, determine participants, from among 
the individuals eligible for awards, who will be granted awards under the 2016 Plan, make any combination 
of awards to participants and determine the specific terms and conditions of awards subject to the 2016 Plan. 
Awards under the 2016 Plan may be granted to full or part-time officers, employees, non-employee directors 
and other key persons (including consultants) of the Company and its subsidiaries. 

With  respect  to  stock  options  granted  under  the  2016  Plan,  the  exercise  price  will  be  determined  by  the 
Compensation Committee but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock subject 
to the award, determined as of the date of grant. Regarding incentive stock options, including that the aggregate 
grant date fair market value of the shares of stock with respect to which incentive stock options granted under 
the 2016 Plan and any other plan of the Company or its parent and subsidiary corporations become exercisable 
for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year shall not exceed $100,000. To the extent that any 
incentive stock option exceeds this limit, it shall constitute a non-qualified stock option. Restricted stock awards 
are shares of common stock that are awarded subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions established 
by the Compensation Committee. In general, awards that do not require exercise may be made in exchange for 
such lawful consideration, including services, as determined by the Compensation Committee. At December 
31, 2017, there were 815,500 shares available for issuance under the 2016 Plan.

Income Taxes (continued)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of net operating 
loss  carryforwards,  tax  credit  carryforwards  and  temporary  differences  between  the  financial  statement 
carrying amounts and the income tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against 
any net deferred tax asset if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax 
assets will not be realized.

Deferred  income  taxes  reflect  the  impact  of  “temporary  differences”  between  the  amount  of  assets  and 
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. The 
Company has fully reserved the net deferred tax assets, as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax 
assets will not be utilized. Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are composed of the following at December 31 (in 
thousands):

The decrease in the net deferred tax assets and corresponding valuation allowance during the year ended 
December  31,  2017  related  primarily  to  the  decrease  in  corporate  tax  rate  from  34%  to  21%  starting  on 
January 1, 2018. The increase in net deferred tax assets and corresponding valuation allowance during the 
year ended December 31, 2016 is primarily attributable to additional net operating losses, additional research 
and development credits, and differences in amortization periods on the Company’s intangible assets. The 
Company completed an asset acquisition in January 2016 which resulted in $293,307 of goodwill. For book 
purposes, the goodwill was classified as an indefinite lived asset and tested for impairment each year. For 
tax, the Company is allowed amortization expense over a 15 year life. Due to the indefinite life of the asset 
for book purposes, the Company could not assume there would be a deferred tax asset available to offset the 
liability in future years. This created a tax expense equal to the tax effected amount of tax amortization, or 
$7,434 in 2017 and $6,844 in 2016.

As  of  December  31,  2017,  the  Company  has  net  operating  loss  carryforwards  totaling  approximately 
$131.2  million  expiring  between  2019  and  2037. A  portion  of  the  total  net  operating  loss  carryforwards 
amounting to approximately $54.0 million relate to the acquisition of Xoft, Inc. As of December 31, 2017, the 
Company has provided a valuation allowance for its net operating loss carryforwards due to the uncertainty 
of the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future years to obtain the benefit from the 
utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards. In the event of a deemed change in control, an annual 
limitation imposed on the utilization of the net operating losses may result in the expiration of all or a portion 
of  the  net  operating  loss  carryforwards.  There  were  no  net  operating  losses  utilized  for  the  years  ended 
December 31, 2017 or 2016.

The Company currently has approximately $9.9 million (including approximately $8.5 million that relate 
to  Xoft,  Inc.)  in  net  operating  losses  that  are  subject  to  limitations,  of  which  approximately  $2.0  million 
(including  approximately  $656,000  that  relates  to  Xoft,  Inc.)  can  be  used  annually  through  2029.  The

Income Taxes (continued)

Company  has  available  tax  credit  carryforwards  (adjusted  to  reflect  provisions  of  the Tax  Reform Act  of 
1986) to offset future income tax liabilities totaling approximately $3.1 million. The tax credits related to 
Xoft have been fully reserved for and as a result no deferred tax asset has been recorded. The credits expire 
in various years through 2037.

ASC  740-10  prescribes  a  recognition  threshold  and  measurement  attribute  for  the  financial  statement 
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and also provides 
guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, 
and transition.

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to 
liabilities or operations were required under ASC 740-10. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest 
and penalty expenses related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense, which was zero for the years 
ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. The Company files United States federal and various state income 
tax returns. Generally, the Company’s three preceding tax years remain subject to examination by federal 
and state taxing authorities. The Company completed an examination by the Internal Revenue Service with 
respect to the 2008 tax year in January 2011, which resulted in no changes to the tax return originally filed. 
The Company is not under examination by any other federal or state jurisdiction for any tax year.

The Company does not anticipate that it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits as of December 
31, 2017 will significantly change within the next 12 months.

On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) 
tax reform legislation. This legislation makes significant change in U.S. tax law including a reduction in the 
corporate tax rates, changes to net operating loss carryforwards and carrybacks, and a repeal of the corporate 
alternative minimum tax. The legislation reduced the U.S. corporate tax rate from the current rate of 34% 
down to 21% starting on January 1, 2018. As a result of the enacted law, the Company was required to revalue 
deferred tax assets and liabilities  at the 21%. This revaluation resulted in a provision of  $19.1 million to 
income tax expense in continuing operations and a corresponding reduction in the valuation allowance. As 
a result, there was no impact to the Company’s income statement as a result of reduction in tax rates. The 
other provisions of the TCJA did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our 
preliminary estimate of the TCJA and the remeasurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities is subject 
to  the  finalization  of  management’s  analysis  related  to  certain  matters,  such  as  developing  interpretations 
of the provisions of the TCJA, changes to certain estimates and the filing of our tax returns. U.S. Treasury 
regulations,  administrative  interpretations  or  court  decisions  interpreting  the  TCJA  may  require  further 
adjustments and changes in our estimates. The final determination of the TCJA and the remeasurement of our 
deferred assets and liabilities will be completed as additional information becomes available, but no later than 
one year from the enactment of the TCJA.

Segment Reporting, Geographical Information and Major Customers

(a) Segment Reporting

In accordance with FASB Topic ASC 280, “Segments”, operating segments are defined as components of an 
enterprise that engage in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and regularly 
reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess 
performance.

The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). Each reportable segment generates revenue 
from the sale of medical equipment and related services and/or sale of supplies. The Company has determined 
there are two segments: Cancer Detection and Cancer Therapy.

The Detection segment consists of our advanced image analysis and workflow products, and the Therapy 
segment  consists  of  our  radiation  therapy  (“Axxent”)  products,  and  related  services. The  primary  factors 
used by our CODM to allocate resources are based on revenues, gross profit, operating income or loss, and 
earnings or loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other specific and non-recurring items

Commitments and Contingencies

(a) Lease Obligations

As  of  December  31,  2017,  the  Company  had  three  lease  obligations  related  to  its  facilities.  The  Company’s 
executive offices are leased pursuant to a five-year lease (the “Lease”) that commenced on December 15, 2006, with 
renewals in January, 2012 and August 2016 of office space located at 98 Spit Brook Road, Suite 100 in Nashua, New 
Hampshire (the “Premises”). The August 2016 Lease renewal provides for an annual base rent of $184,518 for the 
period from March 2017 to February 2020. Additionally, the Company is required to pay its proportionate share of 
the building and real estate tax expenses and obtain insurance for the Premises.

The Company leases a facility in San Jose California under a non-cancelable operating lease which commenced 
in September 2012. The operating lease commenced September 2012 with a current annual payment of $295,140 
through September 2017, with all amounts payable in equal monthly installments. In September 2016, the Company 
extended  this  lease  for  the  period  from  October  2017  to  March  2020  with  annual  payments  of  $540,588  from 
October 2017 to September 2018, $558,120 from October 2018 to September 2019 and $286,368 for the period 
from  October  2019  to  March  2020,  with  all  amounts  payable  in  equal  monthly  installments. Additionally,  the 
Company is required to pay its proportionate share of the building and real estate tax expenses and obtain insurance 
for the facility.

In addition to the foregoing leases relating to its principal properties, the Company also has a lease for an additional 
facility in Nashua, New Hampshire used for product repairs, manufacturing and warehousing.

Rent expense for all leases for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $899,000, $745,000 
and $663,000, respectively.

business that total approximately $0.3 million. In connection with the Company’s employee savings plans, 
the matching contribution for 2017 was approximately $0.5 million in cash. The matching contribution for 
2018 is estimated to be approximately $0.5 million in cash.

(d) Employment Agreements

The  Company  has  entered  into  employment  agreements  with  certain  key  executives.  The  employment 
agreements  provide  for  minimum  annual  salaries  and  performance-based  annual  bonus  compensation  as 
defined in their respective agreements. In addition, the employment agreements provide that if employment 
is terminated without cause, the executive will receive an amount equal to their respective base salary then in 
effect for the greater of the remainder of the original term of employment or, for Mr. Ferry, a period of two 
years from the date of termination, for Mr. Christopher and Ms. Stevens, a period of eighteen months from 
the date of termination, in each case, plus the pro rata portion of any annual bonus earned in any employment 
year through the date of termination.

(e) Foreign Tax Claim

In July 2007, a dissolved former Canadian subsidiary of the Company, CADx Medical Systems Inc. (“CADx 
Medical”),  received  a  tax  re-assessment  of  approximately  $6,800,000  from  the  Canada  Revenue Agency 
(“CRA”)  resulting  from  CRA’s  audit  of  CADx  Medical’s  Canadian  federal  tax  return  for  the  year  ended

(e) Foreign Tax Claim (continued)

December  31,  2002.  In  February  2010,  the  CRA  reviewed  the  matter  and  reduced  the  tax  re-assessment 
to  approximately  $703,000,  excluding  interest  and  penalties. The  CRA  has  the  right  to  pursue  the  matter 
until July 2020. The Company believes that it is not liable for the re-assessment against CADx Medical and 
continues to defend this position. As the Company believes that a probability of a loss is remote, no accrual 
was recorded as of December 31, 2017.

(f) Royalty Obligations

In connection with prior litigation, the Company received a nonexclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide 
license, including the right to sublicense certain Hologic patents, and a non-compete covenant as well as an 
agreement not to seek further damages with respect to the alleged patent violations. In return the Company had a 
remaining obligation to pay a minimum annual royalty payment of $250,000 payable through 2016. In addition 
to the minimum annual royalty payments, the litigation settlement agreement with Hologic also provides for 
payment of royalties if such royalties exceed the minimum payment based upon a specified percentage of future 
net sales on any products that practice the licensed rights. The  estimated  fair  value  of  the  patent  license 
and  non-compete  covenant is $100,000 and is being amortized over the estimated remaining useful life of 
approximately  four  years.  In  addition,  a  liability  has  been  recorded  within  accrued  expenses  and  accounts 
payable for future payment and for minimum royalty obligations totaling $0.4 million.

During December 2011, the Company settled litigation with Zeiss with a final payment of pay $0.5 million 
which was paid in June 2017.

(g) Litigation

The Company may be a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of 
its business. Although the final results of all such matters and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the 
Company currently believes that there are no current proceedings or claims pending against it of which the 
ultimate resolution would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. 
However, should we fail to prevail in any legal matter or should several legal matters be resolved against us 
in the same reporting period, such matters could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and 
cash flows for that particular period. In all cases, at each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or 
not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, 
Contingencies. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

Dear Shareholder,

2017 was a year in which we expanded our core 
products and broadened our reach throughout the 
marketplace. We have continued to work passionately to 
provide precise, powerful healthcare solutions expertly 
engineered to optimize operational efficiency, clinician 
confidence, and patient outcomes. Our commitment 
to research and innovation has never been stronger. 
Our accomplishments are proving the value of our past 
investments and creating a strong foundation for future 
revenue growth.

At the Forefront of a Cancer Detection Revolution

With artificial intelligence (AI) fundamentally changing 
the healthcare landscape, we continued to expand our 
breast health solutions by providing innovative tools to 
radiologists. iCAD is currently the only company that 
leverages the power of artificial intelligence and deep 
learning technology to enhance 3D mammography, 
or digital breast tomosynthesis, and streamline the 
workflow for radiologists in the U.S.  This has become 
increasingly important as radiologists are challenged to 
keep pace with the growing amount of data produced 
by digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). 

In 2017, we launched PowerLook® Tomo Detection 
expanding our breast health portfolio in the U.S. with 
PMA approval in March 2017 after obtaining CE mark 
in April 2016.  This is the first innovative technology 
solution of its kind in the breast health market and is 
increasingly being adopted throughout the U.S. and 
Europe by radiologists to improve breast tomosynthesis 
reading workflow. With our powerful software connected 
to over 6,000 mammography systems worldwide, we 
recognize that our continued product innovations will 
expand our market.  Our existing installed base illustrates 
the impact that our landmark workflow solution is having 
as a transformative tool for radiologists to improve breast 
cancer detection.  In addition, planned expansion of 
the platform will introduce compatibility with other 
mammography system providers worldwide.  

PowerLook Tomo Detection enables the creation of 
an enhanced, highly sensitive, computer generated or 
synthetic 2D image of the breast with approximately 
40% more visible malignant soft tissue densities than 
a standard synthetic 2D image. Our reader study 
demonstrated that radiologists can read approximately 
30% faster on average without impacting clinical 
performance when reading with PowerLook Tomo 
Detection compared to reading without it. 

As we continue our momentum to maximize the 
potential of our addressable market and our commitment 

to invest in the breast health market through product 
development and research, we were pleased to 
introduce PowerLook Tomo Detection 2.0 with support 
of multiple system providers.  The product received CE 
mark in March of 2018.  The PowerLook Tomo Detection 
2.0 solution introduces an unprecedented performing 
algorithm that is changing the reading paradigm for 3D 
mammography.  A reader study showed that the new 2.0 
product can simultaneously improve radiologists’ cancer 
detection rates and reduce false positive or recalls rates 
while also reducing reading time by more than 50%.    

PowerLook Tomo Detection 2.0 provides iCAD with the 
potential to significantly expand our addressable market 
through compatibility and partnership with the leading 
3D mammography system providers such as Hologic, GE 
Healthcare and Siemens.  The 2.0 product is approved 
for sale in Europe and Canada and currently pending 
approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Driving Worldwide Commercialization of 
Innovative Cancer Treatments 

2017 also marked great strides in building our 
cancer therapy business, as we establish a strong 
global footprint with our Xoft® Axxent® Electronic 
Brachytherapy (eBx®) System®. eBx, which is used for the 
treatment of early-stage breast cancer, gynecological 
cancers and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC), 
experienced wider adoption in Europe, Asia, Australia, 
as well as the United States. Already cleared by the U.S. 
Food and Drug Administration, CE marked in Europe, 
and licensed in a growing number of countries, in 
2017, we secured approval of our balloon applicators 
by the China Food & Drug Administration (CFDA) for 
the treatment of breast cancer. With this approval, the 
complete suite of Xoft System products is now available 
to clinicians and patients in China, significantly increasing 
our worldwide market opportunity. We remain intently 
focused on continuing to expand global access to our 
innovative, clinically-proven therapies in additional, key 
international markets such as India, Latin America and the 
Middle East.
