REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To: The Stockholders and Board of Directors
   Dynacq Healthcare, Inc.
   Houston, Texas

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Dynacq Healthcare, Inc., as of May 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month and nine-month periods ended May 31, 2011 and 2010. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Dynacq Healthcare, Inc., as of August 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended not presented herein, and in our report dated November 19, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2010, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

May 31, 2011

(reviewed)

General

Dynacq Healthcare, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), is a holding company that through its subsidiaries in China and Hong Kong (1) provided healthcare management services to a hospital in China until February 28, 2011; (2) invests in debt and equity securities, including short-term investments in initial public offerings and pre-initial public offerings; and (3) invests in artifacts for resale (which the Company has recently decided not to pursue). The Company through its United States subsidiaries owns and operates two general acute care hospitals in Pasadena and Garland, Texas. However, the Company has approved a plan to sell these facilities, and accordingly this business is classified as “Discontinued Operations” (see Discontinued Operations below). We are currently composed of two divisions: China and Corporate.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying reviewed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The majority of the Company’s expenses are “cost of revenue” items. Costs that could be classified as general and administrative by the Company would include the corporate office costs, which includes advertising and marketing expenses, were approximately $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $3.9 million and $5.0 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These reviewed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements at August 31, 2010. Operating results for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending August 31, 2011.

Certain previously reported financial information has been reclassified to conform to the current year period’s presentation. The impact of such reclassification was not significant to the prior year period’s overall presentation, except for presenting the two U.S. owned hospitals and the management of the Second People’s Hospital in China as discontinued operations.

Reorganization of Segments

The Industry Segment “U.S. Division” the Company had in prior years has been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements, along with the corporate overhead costs associated with the U.S. Division. The Company at the present time has only the China Division and the Corporate Division.

Subsequent Event

On July 7, 2011 the Company, acting through its wholly owned subsidiary, Doctor’s Practice Management, Inc. (“DPM”), entered into a definitive Common Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire minority membership interests in CCM&D Consulting, L.L.C. (“CCM&D”) and GreenTree Administrators, L.L.C. (“GreenTree”). Additionally, DPM entered into a Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D for the establishment and operation of a series of medical clinics in the southern United States area. The principal of CCM&D, a clinic management company, and GreenTree, a third party administrator contracted by self-funded employees’ health care programs sponsored by employers, is Dr. Garry Craighead. CCM&D currently operates four clinics in Texas under the name Union Treatment Centers. The Company acquired a 15% and 40% membership interest in CCM&D and GreenTree, respectively. The Company purchased said interests with 125,000 shares of Dynacq Healthcare, Inc. common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with CCM&D and GreenTree.

Pursuant to the Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D, DPM will furnish $250,000 in startup capital for each of a total of ten clinics during the next twelve months. The location and operating budget for each clinic will be subject to prior approval by DPM. Each clinic will be owned or leased by DPM, will be managed by CCM&D, and will bear the name Union Treatment Centers. CCM&D’s management fee will be 40% of the aggregate profits of the clinics, if any. The billing and collections for the clinics will be performed by CCM&D under the supervision of DPM. The Management and Consulting Agreement contains an initial term of one year, and is subject to renewal and to early termination.

Additionally, Dr. Garry Craighead became the Company’s Chief Development Officer upon execution of an Employment Agreement which granted Dr. Craighead an additional 125,000 shares of Dynacq common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as additional compensation. Further, under said Employment Agreement the Company granted Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the Company’s Year 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, and the Company will pay Dr. Craighead an annual salary of $200,000. It will further grant Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, upon shareholder approval. Both the Year 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and the grant of the incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares have been approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee, but are subject to approval by the shareholders. The entire 4,500,000 stock option grants are performance awards attributable to his efforts. Specifically, 15,000 shares will vest based on the employee’s obtainment of each $1,000,000 of net collections for the Company, up to the maximum of 4,500,000 shares over five years.

The intention of the parties in entering into these transactions is to create an integrated healthcare system to provide efficient and cost-effective patient care, in accordance with the concept of an Accountable Care Organization.

Subsequent to the quarter ended May 31, 2011, on July 7, 2011, the Compensation Committee granted an aggregate of 1.4 million stock options with an exercise price of $1.86 to all full time employees with a minimum of one year of employment with the Company. These stock options will vest in annual installments of 25 percent beginning on the first anniversary date.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

Investments in Available-for-Sale and Trading Securities

The Company has invested in various bonds. These investments are classified as available-for-sale securities, and are carried at fair value as of May 31, 2011, based on the quoted market prices as of that date. These investments are subject to default risk. The Company intends to hold these for a minimum period of an additional 12 months. Unrealized gains in the fair value are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related income tax effect. The Company monitors its investment portfolio for any decline in fair value that is other than temporary and records any such impairment as an impairment loss.

The Company also invests in initial public offerings of equity securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. These investments are classified as trading securities, and are carried at fair value as of May 31, 2011. These investments are subject to fluctuations in the market price. During the nine months ended May 31, 2011, the Company had a net gain of $33,504 in trading of these securities. This includes a loss of $116,108 due to fair valuation of trading securities held as of May 31, 2011, based on the quoted market price as of that date.

Investment in Real Estate and Notes Payable

In March 2010, the Company purchased an apartment in Hong Kong as an investment for $2,014,207. This apartment was used as a security to obtain an 18-year mortgage loan of $1,245,775 from a financial institution, with a variable interest rate at the lower of 3-month Hang Seng Interbank Offered Rates plus 0.7% or 2.9% below the Hong Kong Dollar best lending rate quoted by the financial institution. The effective interest rate at May 31, 2011 was 0.96%. The Company has paid down $47,657 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011 and the current and

long-term portions of the note payable as of May 31, 2011 are $64,447 and $1,107,336, respectively. Depreciation expense associated with the apartment was $12,912 and $38,735 for the three month and nine month periods ended May 31, 2011.

In September 2010, the Company borrowed $65,000 as note payable from a financial institution at an interest rate of 6%. This note payable is to be repaid in 24 monthly installments and is secured by specific equipment purchased at our Pasadena facility. The Company has paid down $20,834 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011, and the current and long-term portions of the note payable as of May 31, 2011 are $32,815 and $11,351, respectively.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of artifacts, are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined by use of the average cost method.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant of the Company’s estimates is the determination of revenue to recognize for the services the Company provides and the determination of the contractual allowance. See “Revenue Recognition” below for further discussion. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates used in the preparation of these financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

Under ASC Topic 360-10-35, Property, Plant, and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets), we classify assets to be disposed of as held for sale or, if appropriate, discontinued operations when they have received appropriate approvals to be disposed of by our management or Board of Directors. Cash flows from our discontinued businesses are reflected as discontinued operating, investing, and financing activities in our statement of cash flows. The following is a description of our discontinued operations and summarized results of these operations for the three month and nine month periods ended May 31, 2011 and 2010. We had $15,177,608 of assets of discontinued operations and $917,907 of liabilities of discontinued operations as of May 31, 2011.

From March 1, 2009 to February 28, 2011, Dynacq Huai Bei Healthcare, Inc. (“Dynacq-Huai Bei”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company provided healthcare management services to the Second People’s Hospital in Rui An, China. Dynacq-Huai Bei was ultimately responsible for funding any operating deficits, and was entitled to any operating profits, of that hospital during the management period. Due to continued losses at the Second People’s Hospital, the Company has made the decision to terminate the management agreement with the Rui An City Department of Health, and is currently in negotiation with them to finalize the terms, including the effective date of termination. The Company has written off the fixed assets and inventory balances as of February 28, 2011, and does not expect any further losses due to the termination of this management agreement related to the Second People’s Hospital.

In August 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan to dispose of the two hospitals (the Pasadena facility and the Garland facility) included in our U.S. Division in prior years. Both facilities have experienced decreases in net patient revenues and number of cases, generally attributable to the loss of physicians from our medical staffs and to the general economic downturn resulting in fewer elective surgeries. The opening of a new hospital near our Garland facility has had a direct adverse impact on our ability to retain members of the medical staff at that facility and consequently on our patient volume. Neither of these facilities is currently profitable, and the Board of Directors believes this plan of disposal is in the Company’s best interest. The facilities will continue to be operated by the Company until such time as they are sold.

We plan to market both hospital facilities for sale, with completion of the sales as soon as reasonably practicable. We do not expect to incur any material costs associated with termination of employment of the affected employees beyond accrued obligations for salary and benefits. The Board of Directors and management have not yet determined an estimate of any other costs associated with the foregoing disposal activities either by type or in total

nor the amount of any charge that will result in future cash expenditures. The Company had an independent appraisal done for both the hospitals, and based on each hospital’s valuation, expected sale proceeds, and expected cash flows, has determined that there is no impairment charge required in connection with the foregoing disposal activities. Because we do not intend to sell the accounts receivable of hospitals in discontinued operations, the receivables are included in our accounts receivable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options determined using the treasury stock method. However, if it is anti-dilutive, the dilutive effect of the stock options is not included in the calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share. Stock options with exercise prices exceeding current market prices that were excluded from the computation of net income (loss) per share amounted to approximately 921,000 shares and 620,000 shares for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company’s 2000 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) provides for options and other stock-based awards that may be granted to eligible employees, officers, consultants and non-employee directors of the Company or its subsidiaries. The Company had reserved 5,000,000 shares of common stock for future issuance under the Plan. As of May 31, 2011, there remain 2,854,154 shares which can be issued under the Plan, after giving effect to stock splits and shares issued under the Plan. The Plan permits stock awards, stock appreciation rights, performance units, and other stock-based awards, all of which may or may not be subject to the achievement of one or more performance objectives.

The purposes of the Plan generally are to retain and attract persons of training, experience and ability to serve as employees of the Company and its subsidiaries and to serve as non-employee directors of the Company, to encourage the sense of proprietorship of such persons and to stimulate the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”). The Committee has the power to determine which eligible employees will receive awards, the timing and manner of the grant of such awards, the exercise price of stock options (which may not be less than market value on the date of grant), the number of shares, and all of the terms of the awards. The Company may at any time amend or terminate the Plan. However, no amendment that would impair the rights of any participant with respect to outstanding grants can be made without the participant’s prior consent. Stockholder approval of an amendment to the Plan is necessary only when required by applicable law or stock exchange rules.

For the three month and nine month periods ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no equity-based compensation awards granted. Generally, options granted become exercisable in annual installments of 25 percent beginning on the first anniversary date, and expire after five to ten years. The following table summarizes the stock option activities for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 (share amounts in thousands):

Both the Year 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and the grant of the additional 3,000,000 shares have been approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee and are subject to approval by the shareholders. The entire 4,500,000 stock option grants are performance awards attributable to his efforts. Specifically, 15,000 shares will vest based on the employee’s obtainment of each $1,000,000 of net collections for the Company, up to the maximum of 4,500,000 shares over five years.

Additionally, subsequent to the quarter ended May 31, 2011, on July 7, 2011, the Compensation Committee granted an aggregate of 1.4 million stock options with an exercise price of $1.86 to all full time employees with a minimum of one year of employment with the Company. These stock options will vest in annual installments of 25 percent beginning on the first anniversary date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

On September 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC Topic 825-10-25, “Financial Instruments” (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities (“SFAS 159”)), which permits entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The adoption of ASC Topic 825-10-25 had no impact on the consolidated financial statements because the Company did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities that were not already recorded at fair value.

On September 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (formerly referred to as SFAS 157) for our financial assets and liabilities. Management uses the fair value hierarchy of ASC Topic 820, which gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets. The fair value of financial instruments is estimated based on market trading information, where available. Absent published market values for an instrument or other assets, management uses observable market data to arrive at its estimates of fair value. Management believes that the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted price for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other input that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance related to fair value disclosure requirements. The new guidance resulted in a change in the Company’s accounting policy effective March 1, 2010. Under this guidance, companies will be required to make additional disclosures concerning significant transfers of amounts between the Level 1 and Level 2 fair value disclosures, as well as further

disaggregation of the types of activity that were previously disclosed in the rollforward of Level 3 fair value disclosures. Further, the guidance clarifies the level of aggregation of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy that may be presented. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The following table summarizes our financial assets and liabilities measured and reported in the Company’s statement of financial position at fair value on a recurring basis as of May 31, 2011, segregated among the appropriate levels within the fair value hierarchy:

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the Company as a whole is the U.S. Dollar. The Company has designated the Chinese Yuan Renminbi as the functional currency for its subsidiaries in mainland China, and the U.S. Dollar for Sino Bond in Hong Kong. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Income and expense are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income within Stockholders’ Equity.

Revenue Recognition

Discontinued Operations

Revenue Recognition Policy

In China, the local government Department of Health establishes billing rates for a hospital’s sale of prescription medication and medical services. A majority of the services provided by the Second People’s Hospital is to cash pay patients, who pay for the services in advance. For services provided under the local government’s social healthcare insurance program, we are generally paid at approximately 95% of billed charges two to three months after the date of service. The remaining 5% of billed charges is evaluated by the local government Department of Health on a semi-annual basis and may be paid to the hospital after that evaluation is complete. As of February 28, 2011, the Company has made the decision to terminate the management agreement with the Rui An City Department of Health, and is currently in negotiation with them to finalize the terms, including the effective date of termination. The Company had no operations at Second People’s Hospital during the three months ended May 31, 2011, and incurred $1,815 in bad debt expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2010, and $24,755 and $11,812 for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to denials under the social healthcare insurance program. Since the amount of bad debt expense is minimal, it has been included with Other Operating Expenses in the income statement.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent net receivables for services provided by the Company. At each balance sheet date management reviews the accounts receivable for collectibility.

Discontinued Operations - (U.S. Hospitals)

Background

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is significant because net patient service revenue is a primary component of its results of operations. Revenue is recognized as services are delivered. The determination of the amount of revenue to be recognized in connection with the Company’s services is subject to significant judgments and estimates, which are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition Policy

The Company has established billing rates for its medical services which it bills as gross revenue as services are delivered. Gross billed revenues are then reduced by the Company’s estimate of the discount (contractual allowance) to arrive at net patient service revenues. Net patient service revenues may not represent amounts ultimately collected. The Company adjusts current period revenue for actual differences in estimated revenue recorded in prior periods and actual cash collections.

Contractual Allowance

The Company computes its contractual allowance based on the estimated collections on its gross billed charges. The Company computes its estimate by taking into account collections received, up to 30 days after the end of the period, for the services performed and also estimating amounts collectible for the services performed within the last six months. The following table shows gross revenues and contractual allowances for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2011 and 2010:

The contractual allowance percentage, excluding the stop-loss fee dispute amount booked in the quarter ended May 31, 2011, which is discussed below, would have been 66% and 64% for the three months and nine months ended May 31, 2011, respectively.

A significant amount of our net revenue results from Texas workers’ compensation claims, which are governed by the rules and regulations of the Texas Department of Workers’ Compensation (“TDWC”) and the workers’ compensation healthcare networks. If one of our hospitals chooses to participate in a network, the amount of revenue that will be generated from workers’ compensation claims will be governed by the network contract.

For claims arising prior to the implementation of workers’ compensation networks and out of network claims, inpatient and outpatient surgical services are either reimbursed pursuant to the Acute Care In-Patient Hospital Fee Guideline or at a “fair and reasonable” rate for services in which the fee guideline is not applicable. Starting March 1, 2008, the Texas Workers’ Compensation 2008 Acute Care Hospital Outpatient and Inpatient Facility Fee Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) became effective. Under these Guidelines, the reimbursement amounts are determined by applying the most recently adopted and effective Medicare reimbursement formula and factors; however, if the maximum allowable reimbursement for the procedure performed cannot be calculated using these Guidelines, then reimbursement is determined on a fair and reasonable basis.

Table of Contents

Based on these Guidelines, the reimbursement due the Company for workers’ compensation cases is lower than we previously experienced. The Company has continued accepting Texas workers’ compensation cases, and has not made any substantial changes in its focus towards such cases. Our net patient service revenue for Texas workers’ compensation cases as a percentage of gross billings has decreased primarily as a result of lower reimbursement rates for workers’ compensation procedures still being performed.

Should we disagree with the amount of reimbursement provided by a third-party payer, we are required to pursue the MDR process at the TDWC to request proper reimbursement for services. From January 2007 to November 2008, the Company had been successful in its pursuit of collections regarding the stop-loss cases pending before the State Office of Administrative Hearings (“SOAH”), receiving positive rulings in over 90% of its claims presented for administrative determination. The 2007 district court decision upholding our interpretation of the statute as applied to the stop-loss claims was appealed by certain insurance carriers, and on November 13, 2008 the Third Court of Appeals determined that in order for a hospital to be reimbursed at 75% of its usual and customary audited charges for an inpatient admission, the hospital must not only bill at least $40,000, but also show that the admission involved unusually costly and unusually extensive services. Procedurally, the decision means that each case where a carrier raised an issue regarding whether the services provided were unusually costly or unusually extensive would be remanded to either SOAH or MDR for a case-by-case determination of whether the services provided meet these standards, once the definitions of those standards are determined. As a result of the Third Court of Appeals opinion, any stop-loss cases pending at SOAH have been remanded to the TDWC since these cases have not been reviewed or decided by the two-prong standard decided by the Third Court of Appeals. The SOAH Administrative Law judges determined that the most appropriate location for these cases is the TDWC, pending a final, non-appealable decision.

A petition asking the Texas Supreme Court to review the Third Court of Appeals decision has been denied. Therefore, the Company is bound by the Third Court of Appeals decision. The Texas Supreme Court’s decision has further delayed final adjudication in these pending stop-loss cases. The uncertain outcome in these cases will depend on a very lengthy process. We anticipate further, lengthy litigation at the Travis County District Courts and the Texas Courts of Appeals. Because of this lengthy process and the uncertainty of recovery in these cases, collection of a material amount of funds in these pending stop-loss cases is not anticipated during the 2011 fiscal year.

Through May 2011, insurance carriers have voluntarily paid the awards in the decisions and orders issued by SOAH, plus interest, in approximately 180 cases, involving approximately $11 million in claims. In most of these cases, the carriers have requested refunds of the payments made in the event that the SOAH decisions and orders are reversed on appeal. Our request that the TDWC Commissioner enforce the awards which were not voluntarily paid by the carriers was refused in approximately 130 cases. Motions filed seeking a refund in some cases in which the awards were voluntarily paid have been granted and the Company has been ordered to refund approximately $3.7 million, including prejudgment interest, pending remand for a case-by-case determination of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. We anticipate that similar motions requesting remand and a refund for awards voluntarily paid will be filed and will likely be granted by the 345th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. If and when these additional motions are granted, the Company will be ordered to refund an additional $7.7 million, not including prejudgment interest. The Company plans on appealing the orders requiring a refund to the carriers. The appeal of the refund orders will progress simultaneously to the adjudication of those cases remanded for determinations of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. Voluntary payments made pursuant to the Decisions and Orders are premature payments by the carriers and will likely be ordered to be refunded. Once the Company is given the opportunity to present its evidence regarding whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive, the Company anticipates that it will prevail in the underlying stop-loss fee disputes and that voluntary payments refunded to the carriers will be recaptured.

Due to the uncertainties associated with these stop-loss fee dispute cases, the Company has booked a loss of $11,034,573 in contractual allowance, and $1,744,731 in interest expense during the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Claims regarding payment for hospital outpatient services remain pending at the TDWC. It is expected that these claims will be adjudicated at SOAH and ultimately in the Texas district and appellate courts. The basis for reimbursement for these services made the subject of these pending cases is the determination of “fair and reasonable” charges. In 2007, we received unfavorable rulings from SOAH in all of our appeals of unfavorable

decisions related to services provided in 2001 and 2002. The 179 cases, which have been appealed to the Travis County district courts, challenge the constitutionality of the relevant statutory language. The Company received an unfavorable ruling in its lead case in March 2009, which ruling has been appealed to and was upheld by the Third Court of Appeals on August 26, 2010. The Texas Supreme Court denied a petition asking for review of the Third Court of Appeals decision. Therefore, the Company is bound by the Third Court of Appeals’ ruling that interprets the applicable statute and fee guideline to require that the amount that will be paid to a provider must not only be at a “fair and reasonable rate” but also must “ensure the quality of medical care” and “achieve effective cost control” and be the same or less than that charged to others with an equivalent standard of living. This ruling will impact cases in which a fee guideline was not applicable, specifically all pending cases involving ambulatory surgical services provided in 2001 and 2002 as well as all pending cases involving hospital outpatient services provided prior to March 1, 2008, when the Guidelines took effect. Since the Third Court of Appeals’ unfavorable ruling, collection, if any, in these cases depends on the Company’s ability to establish the criteria in this recent ruling.

We are currently pursuing claims against two healthcare agents relating to contracts with certain of our facilities which set out reimbursement guidelines by several workers’ compensation carriers at a minimum of 70% of the facility’s charges. Discovery is continuing on these claims to determine which carriers are involved, the amount of reimbursement due to us, and the data used to determine “usual and customary” market rates for medical services in specific geographic regions.

Due to the uncertainties regarding the accounts receivable in the MDR process, the 2008 and 2010 Third Court of Appeals’ opinions and our legal counsel’s advice that settlements with insurance carriers have virtually stopped, the Company had fully reserved all accounts receivable related to the MDR process as of August 31, 2008. Any monies collected for these MDR accounts receivable will be recorded as current period’s net patient service revenues.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent net receivables for services provided by the Company. At each balance sheet date management reviews the accounts receivable for collectibility.

The contractual allowance stated as a percentage of gross receivables at the balance sheet dates is larger than the contractual allowance percentage used to reduce gross billed charges due to the application of partial cash collections to the outstanding gross receivable balances, without any adjustment being made to the contractual allowance. The contractual allowance amounts netted against gross receivables are not adjusted until such time as the final collections on an individual receivable are recognized.

Noncontrolling Interest

The equity of minority investors (minority investors are generally physician groups and other healthcare providers that perform surgeries at the Company’s facilities) in certain subsidiaries of the Company is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as noncontrolling interest. Noncontrolling interest reported in the consolidated income statements reflect the respective interests in the income or loss of the limited partnerships or limited liability companies attributable to the minority investors (equity interest ranged from 1.35% to 1.75% at May 31, 2011).

Contingencies

The Company maintains various insurance policies that cover each of its U.S. facilities; including occurrence medical malpractice coverage. In addition, all physicians granted privileges at the Company’s U.S. facilities are required to maintain medical malpractice insurance coverage. The Company also maintains general liability and property insurance coverage for each U.S. facility, including flood coverage. The Company does not currently maintain workers’ compensation coverage in Texas. In regard to the Employee Health Insurance Plan, the Company is self-insured with specific and aggregate re-insurance with stop-loss levels appropriate for the Company’s group size. Coverage is maintained in amounts management deems adequate.

The management agreement for the Second People’s Hospital requires that 1% of the drug income, and drug income in excess of 40% of total sales, of the hospital be paid to the government. This requirement was designed to control the cost of drugs by discouraging the sale by the hospital of drugs purchased from other than approved drug vendors. However, the local government has not published a list of approved drug vendors and therefore has not enforced the payment provision since the inception of the original management agreement. The Company has been advised by a local attorney that enforcement of that provision is remote, so it has not accrued the amount that would be payable to the local government if this provision were enforced. If the government were to enforce this provision, Dynacq-Huai Bei could potentially owe approximately $1.6 million to the government for the period of time since inception of the original management contract on the hospital to May 31, 2011.

The Company is routinely involved in litigation and administrative proceedings that are incidental to its business. Specifically, all judicial review of unsatisfactory determinations of reimbursement amounts due us for our Texas facilities’ fees must be made in the district courts of Travis County, Texas in what can often be a lengthy procedure. Please refer to Revenue Recognition, as well as Business – Government Regulation – Discontinued Operations –Texas Workers’ Compensation Systems in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010, for a detailed description of the MDR process and our accounts receivable. The Company cannot predict whether any litigation or administrative proceeding to which it is currently a party will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Industry Segments and Geographic Information

The Industry Segment “U.S. Division” the Company had in prior years has been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements, along with the corporate overhead costs associated with the U.S. Division. The Company at the present time has only the China Division and the Corporate Division.

China Division

From March 1, 2009 to February 28, 2011, Dynacq Huai Bei Healthcare, Inc. (“Dynacq-Huai Bei”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company provided healthcare management services to the Second People’s Hospital in Rui An, China. The Company organized Dynacq-Huai Bei in April 2008 under the laws of the People’s Republic of China. Although the contract to manage the Second People’s Hospital was not executed until March 1, 2009, the effective date was November 25, 2008 and Dynacq-Huai Bei has included the results of operations of that hospital from that effective date. Therefore the financial statements for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009 included three months of results of operations by the prior manager. Dynacq-Huai Bei was ultimately responsible for funding any operating deficits, and was entitled to any operating profits, of that hospital during the management period. Due to continued losses at the Second People’s Hospital, the Company has made the decision to terminate the management agreement with the Rui An City Department of Health, and is currently in negotiation with them to finalize the terms, including the effective date of termination. The Company has written off the fixed assets and inventory balances as of February 28, 2011, and does not expect any further losses due to the termination of this management agreement related to the Second People’s Hospital. We have accounted for the operations of the Second People’s Hospital in Rui An, China as discontinued operations, and have reclassified prior period financial statements to exclude them from continuing operations.

Dynacq-Huai Bei and the Rui An City Department of Health had also previously entered into an agreement assigning to Dynacq-Huai Bei the right to manage the Third People’s Hospital in Rui An, which hospital is currently under construction. Based on continued delays in the construction of the Third People’s Hospital, however, in November 2010, Dynacq-Huai Bei and the Rui An City Department of Health mutually agreed to terminate this agreement. Accordingly, Dynacq-Huai Bei will not be managing the Third People’s Hospital.

In August 2009, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Hu GangJing (Hang Zhou) Technology Company Limited (“Hang Zhou Tech”) under the laws of the People’s Republic of China, as a holding company for investments in the city of Hang Zhou and other cities in China. It is anticipated that Hang Zhou Tech will invest in businesses or form joint ventures with other companies to engage in businesses such as energy, life sciences and pharmaceuticals. In December 2009, Hang Zhou Tech incorporated two wholly owned subsidiaries, namely Hang Zhou Hu GangJing Investment Management Company Limited (Hang Zhou Investment Management”), and Hang Zhou Hu GangJing Medical Investment Company Limited (“Hang Zhou Medical Investment”). Hang Zhou Tech was set up under an incentive program of the city of Hang Zhou by which the city government has offered an interest free loan of 30% of an investment in projects made by Hang Zhou Tech, up to a $1.5 million maximum. The loan is repayable within five years only if the investment in the projects is profitable. If after five years the investment is not profitable, then the city of Hang Zhou will forgive the loan in full. Hang Zhou Tech, through its subsidiary Hang Zhou Investment Management, initially plans to invest in technologies such as energy; and through its subsidiary, Hang Zhou Medical Investment plans to invest in healthcare, including pharmaceuticals. There has been no significant development in any of these projects, and Hang Zhou Tech is not currently actively pursuing any joint ventures.

In March 2010, Dynacq-Huai Bei incorporated a subsidiary, Shanghai Hu Jing Investment Management Company Limited (“Shanghai Hu Jing”) under the laws of People’s Republic of China, in which Dynacq-Huai Bei owns 90%, and Hang Zhou Tech owns 10%. 40% of Shanghai Hu Jing’s cumulative profit will be distributed to Shanghai Hu Jing Electronic Developments Co., Ltd. (“Shanghai Hu Jing Electronic”), a Company which is majority owned by the General Manager of the Company’s China Division. Shanghai Hu Jing Electronic will be the Company’s key partner in identifying and bringing various projects to the Company. The remaining cumulative profit will be distributed to Dynacq-Huai Bei and Hang Zhou Tech. In September 2010, Shanghai Hu Jing incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Shanghai Run Tien Enterprise, Ltd. (“Shanghai Run Tien”), to invest in

artifacts to be sold and commercial real estate rentals. The artifacts are purchased from auction houses overseas and the Company is currently seeking buyers in China. At May 31, 2011, the Company had artifacts inventory of $130,169.

The Company has also organized Sino Bond Inc. Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“Sino Bond”) to hold and manage investments in Hong Kong. Sino Bond has entered into a marketing contract related to healthcare services by Dynacq subsidiaries in China and Southeast Asia and invests in debt and equity securities in Europe and Asia, including initial public offerings and pre-initial public offerings.

The Company through its subsidiaries in China and Hong Kong is pursuing growth opportunities in which it will expand into various operations in the following markets to achieve geographic diversity and to take advantage of various potential opportunities, including but not limited to:

 

   

Pharmaceuticals and medical testing kits;

 

   

Healthcare services;

 

   

Commercial real estate rental; and

 

   

Senior housing complex with healthcare amenities.

The various growth opportunities in China and Hong Kong are in varying stages of development, and there is no assurance that any of them will come to fruition and/or be successful.

Corporate Division

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009, the Company invested approximately $9.1 million of its available cash in marketable securities. As of May 31, 2011, these securities are valued at approximately $25 million. The Company intends to hold, or sell if market conditions change, and manage these investment securities until it is able to identify and fund other attractive opportunities in China. During the nine months ended May 31, 2011, the Company also traded in initial public offerings of equity securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and had gains of $33,504. The Company, through a subsidiary in Hong Kong, has expanded its investments in debt and equity securities in Europe and Asia and has engaged the services of an investment banker to recommend such investment opportunities. The Company’s primary investment focus will be on growth companies from mainland China. The Company anticipates continuing making short-term investment in these entities through initial public offerings (held mostly through the Hong Kong Stock Exchange) and pre-initial public offerings.

The Corporate Division includes interest and other income related to these investments in available-for-sale and trading securities, corporate personnel compensation expenses, and general and administrative expenses. Such expenses and income are not allocated to our operating division, as they relate to our general corporate activities.

We generally evaluate performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes and non-recurring charges and other criteria. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. There are no transfers between segments.

Subsequent Event

On July 7, 2011 the Company, acting through its wholly owned subsidiary, Doctor’s Practice Management, Inc. (“DPM”), entered into a definitive Common Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire minority membership interests in CCM&D Consulting, L.L.C. (“CCM&D”) and GreenTree Administrators, L.L.C. (“GreenTree”). Additionally, DPM entered into a Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D for the establishment and operation of a series of medical clinics in the southern United States area. The principal of CCM&D, a clinic management company, and GreenTree, a third party administrator contracted by self-funded employees’ health care programs sponsored by employers, is Dr. Garry Craighead. CCM&D currently operates four clinics in Texas under the name Union Treatment Centers. The Company acquired a 15% and 40% membership interest in CCM&D and GreenTree, respectively. The Company purchased said interests with 125,000 shares of Dynacq Healthcare, Inc. common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with CCM&D and GreenTree.

Pursuant to the Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D, DPM will furnish $250,000 in startup capital for each of a total of ten clinics during the next twelve months. The location and operating budget for each clinic will be subject to prior approval by DPM. Each clinic will be owned or leased by DPM, will be managed by CCM&D, and will bear the name Union Treatment Centers. CCM&D’s management fee will be 40% of the aggregate profits of the clinics, if any. The billing and collections for the clinics will be performed by CCM&D under the supervision of DPM. The Management and Consulting Agreement contains an initial term of one year, and is subject to renewal and to early termination.

Additionally, Dr. Garry Craighead became the Company’s Chief Development Officer upon execution of an Employment Agreement which granted Dr. Craighead an additional 125,000 shares of Dynacq common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as additional compensation. Further, under said Employment Agreement the Company granted Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company pursuant to the Company’s Year 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, and the Company will pay Dr. Craighead an annual salary of $200,000. It will further grant Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, upon shareholder approval. Both the Year 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and the grant of the incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares have been approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee, but are subject to approval by the shareholders. The entire 4,500,000 stock option grants are performance awards attributable to his efforts. Specifically, 15,000 shares will vest based on the employee’s obtainment of each $1,000,000 of net collections for the Company, up to the maximum of 4,500,000 shares over five years.

The intention of the parties in entering into these transactions is to create an integrated healthcare system to provide efficient and cost-effective patient care, in accordance with the concept of an Accountable Care Organization.

Three Months Ended May 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended May 31, 2010

China Division

We have accounted for the operations of the Second People’s Hospital in Rui An, China as discontinued operations, and have reclassified prior period financial statements to exclude them from continuing operations.

Total costs and expenses increased by $133,893, from $420,088 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $553,981 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The following discusses the various changes in costs and expenses:

 

   

Compensation and benefits decreased by $36,991 due to reduction in staff.

 

   

Other operating expenses includes primarily administrative expenses for managing the various projects the Company is undertaking, related marketing expenses and rent for an apartment for the Chief Executive Officer in Hong Kong. Other operating expenses increased by $169,685, from $354,899 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $524,584 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The Company has made the decision to not pursue the business of sale of artifacts, and wrote down its inventory by $127,771 in the quarter ended May 31, 2011. In addition, marketing expenses increased by $75,000, from $75,000 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $150,000 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Rent and other income (expense) of $22,572 and $(41,981) for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, primarily relates to foreign currency exchange gains (losses).

Corporate Division

Compensation and benefits for the Corporate Division includes $78,369 and $112,879 of non-cash compensation expense for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to employees’ incentive stock options granted in fiscal year 2007 and 2008. It also includes all corporate personnel compensation and benefits. The decrease of approximately 29% in 2011, compared to 2010, is due to a reduction in corporate staff as well as reduction in compensation to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company for the fiscal quarter in 2011.

Other operating expenses includes various general and administrative expenses for day to day running of the Company, including professional fees such as legal expenses and audit expenses. The increase in other operating expenses of $49,492, from $370,230 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $419,722 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 relates to a general increase in administrative expenses.

Rent and other income of $288,181 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 includes foreign currency exchange gains of $88,445 primarily on investments in Euro bonds, gains of $48,499 on short-term investments in the equity securities in Hong Kong and other miscellaneous income primarily related to its Baton Rouge facility, which was sold in 2007. Rent and other income (expense) of $(207,012) for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 primarily includes foreign currency exchange losses.

Interest income of $377,086 and $398,996 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, are primarily related to the Company’s investments in bonds.

Investments in securities

Investments in bonds, which were purchased at a cost of $9,135,146 during fiscal year 2009, have appreciated in fair value by an additional $15,856,186. Of that amount, $85,692 and $(212,527) in foreign currency exchange gains (losses) is included in rent and other income in the consolidated statements of operations for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Unrealized gains in these investments of $15,599,386 are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at May 31, 2011, net of taxes of $5,459,785.

Table of Contents

The Company has invested in initial public offerings of equity securities on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and as of May 31, 2011, is holding these trading securities with a fair market value of $1,295,519. The cost of these securities was $1,415,664. Unrealized losses in these investments of $120,145 are included in rent and other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company had a net gain of $48,499 on short-term investments in the equity securities in Hong Kong for the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Discontinued Operations

China

Due to continued losses at the Second People’s Hospital, the Company has made the decision to terminate the management agreement as of February 28, 2011 with the Rui An City Department of Health, and is currently in negotiation with them to finalize the terms, including the effective date of termination. There is no operation at Second People’s Hospital due to this termination for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The net loss for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 at the Second People’s Hospital was $47,286.

U.S. Hospitals

Through May 2011, insurance carriers have voluntarily paid the awards in the decisions and orders issued by SOAH, plus interest, in approximately 180 cases, involving approximately $11 million in claims. In most of these cases, the carriers have requested refunds of the payments made in the event that the SOAH decisions and orders are reversed on appeal. Our request that the TDWC Commissioner enforce the awards which were not voluntarily paid by the carriers was refused in approximately 130 cases. Motions filed seeking a refund in some cases in which the awards were voluntarily paid have been granted and the Company has been ordered to refund approximately $3.7 million, including prejudgment interest, pending remand for a case-by-case determination of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. We anticipate that similar motions requesting remand and a refund for awards voluntarily paid will be filed and will likely be granted by the 345th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. If and when these additional motions are granted, the Company will be ordered to refund an additional $7.7 million, not including prejudgment interest. The Company plans on appealing the orders requiring a refund to the carriers. The appeal of the refund orders will progress simultaneously to the adjudication of those cases remanded for determinations of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. Voluntary payments made pursuant to the Decisions and Orders are premature payments by the carriers and will likely be ordered to be refunded. Once the Company is given the opportunity to present its evidence regarding whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive, the Company anticipates that it will prevail in the underlying stop-loss fee disputes and that voluntary payments refunded to the carriers will be recaptured.

Due to the uncertainties associated with these stop-loss fee dispute cases, the Company has booked a loss of $11,034,573 in contractual allowance, and $1,744,731 in interest expense during the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Excluding the above mentioned stop-loss contractual allowance of $11,034,573, net patient service revenue decreased by $2,235,277, or 51%, from $4,344,388 to $2,109,111, and total surgical cases decreased by 39% from 416 cases for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to 254 cases for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The following are the percentage changes in net patient service revenues and number of cases at the hospital facilities:

Pasadena

   (20)%   (21)%

Garland

   (85)   (65)

Overall

   (51)   (39)

The decrease in net patient service revenue was due to an overall decrease in number of cases by 39% in the quarter ended May 31, 2011 compared to the quarter ended May 31, 2010. While the number of cases decreased by 39%, net patient service revenue decreased by 51%. The higher percentage decrease in net patient service revenue compared to the decrease in number of cases is primarily due to a decrease in gross billed charges by 61%, due to a change in the surgical mix of cases. There was a decrease of 74% in inpatient cases, which typically have higher average reimbursement per case compared to outpatient cases.

Decreases in net patient revenues and number of cases are generally attributable to the loss of physicians from our medical staffs and to the general economic downturn which resulted in fewer elective surgeries. In Garland, the opening of a new hospital nearby had a direct adverse impact on our ability to retain members of the medical staff at that facility and consequently on our patient volume.

Total costs and expenses decreased by $2,578,291, or 41%, from $6,353,871 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $3,775,580 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The following discusses the various changes in costs and expenses:

 

   

Compensation and benefits decreased by $961,133, or 36%, primarily associated with reduction in workforce due to lower net patient service revenues.

 

   

Medical services and supplies expenses decreased by $697,758, or 55%, while the number of surgery cases decreased 39%. The percentage decrease in medical services and supplies was higher than the percentage decrease in the number of surgery cases due to a 74% decrease in inpatient cases, which typically require more medical services and supplies, and also due to a change in the surgical mix of cases.

 

   

Other operating expenses decreased by $696,761, or 32%. Marketing expenses, included in other operating expenses, decreased by $421,575, from $600,000 for the quarter ended May 31, 2010 to $178,425 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The decrease in marketing expenses and in other operating expenses was associated with lower net revenues.

 

   

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $222,639 in 2011 compared to 2010. Our long-lived assets for discontinued operations of our U.S. facilities are measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the carrying value of the U.S. facilities at May 31, 2011 was less than the estimated fair value less cost to sell, and no adjustment to the carrying value of this long-lived asset was necessary during the quarter ended May 31, 2011. We ceased the depreciation of the property and equipment related to the U.S. facilities starting September 1, 2010.

Other income (expense) for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 of $(1,726,059) includes interest expense of $1,744,731 associated with the stop-loss cases discussed above.

The benefit for income taxes for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 and 2010 was 35.0%.

It also includes all corporate personnel compensation and benefits. The decrease of approximately 29% in 2011, compared to 2010, is due to the non-cash compensation expense true-up in 2011 based on forfeiture of incentive stock options, and due to a reduction in corporate staff as well as reduction in compensation to the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company for part of the period in 2011.

Other operating expenses includes various general and administrative expenses for day to day running of the Company, including professional fees such as legal expenses and audit expenses.

U.S. Hospitals

Through May 2011, insurance carriers have voluntarily paid the awards in the decisions and orders issued by SOAH, plus interest, in approximately 180 cases, involving approximately $11 million in claims. In most of these cases, the carriers have requested refunds of the payments made in the event that the SOAH decisions and orders are reversed on appeal. Our request that the TDWC Commissioner enforce the awards which were not voluntarily paid by the carriers was refused in approximately 130 cases. Motions filed seeking a refund in some cases in which the awards were voluntarily paid have been granted and the Company has been ordered to refund approximately $3.7 million, including prejudgment interest, pending remand for a case-by-case determination of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. We anticipate that similar motions requesting remand and a refund for awards voluntarily paid will be filed and will likely be granted by the 345th Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. If and when these additional motions are granted, the Company will be ordered to refund an additional $7.7 million, not including prejudgment interest. The Company plans on appealing the orders requiring a refund to the carriers. The appeal of the refund orders will progress simultaneously to the adjudication of those cases remanded for determinations of whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive. Voluntary payments made pursuant to the Decisions and Orders are premature payments by the carriers and will likely be ordered to be refunded. Once the Company is given the opportunity to present its evidence regarding whether the services provided were unusually costly and unusually extensive, the Company anticipates that it will prevail in the underlying stop-loss fee disputes and that voluntary payments refunded to the carriers will be recaptured.

Due to the uncertainties associated with these stop-loss fee dispute cases, the Company has booked a loss of $11,034,573 in contractual allowance, and $1,744,731 in interest expense during the quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Excluding the above mentioned stop-loss contractual allowance of $11,034,573, net patient service revenue decreased by $10,920,927, or 59%, from $18,456,714 to $7,535,787, and total surgical cases decreased by 51% from 1,599 cases for the nine months ended May 31, 2010 to 787 cases for the nine months ended May 31, 2011. The following are the percentage changes in net patient service revenues and number of cases at the hospital facilities:

 

     Percentage decrease from nine months ended May 31,  2010
to nine months ended May 31, 2011

Facility

   Net patient revenue   Cases

Pasadena

   (39)%   (41)%

Garland

   (82)      (65)   

Overall

   (59)      (51)   

The decrease in net patient service revenue was due to an overall decrease in number of cases by 51% in the nine months ended May 31, 2011 compared to the nine months ended May 31, 2010. While the number of cases decreased by 51%, net patient service revenue decreased by 59%. The higher percentage decrease in net patient service revenue compared to the decrease in the number of cases is primarily due to a decrease in gross billed charges by 69% due to a change in the surgical mix of cases. There was a decrease of 76% in inpatient cases, which typically have higher average reimbursement per case compared to outpatient cases.

Decreases in net patient revenues and number of cases are generally attributable to the loss of physicians from our medical staffs and to the general economic downturn which resulted in fewer elective surgeries. In Garland, the opening of a new hospital nearby had a direct adverse impact on our ability to retain members of the medical staff at that facility and consequently on our patient volume.

Total costs and expenses decreased by $11,744,318, or 50%, from $23,269,947 for the nine months ended May 31, 2010 to $11,525,629 for the nine months ended May 31, 2011. The following discusses the various changes in costs and expenses:

 

   

Compensation and benefits decreased by $2,971,287, or 36%, primarily associated with reduction in workforce due to lower net patient service revenues.

Medical services and supplies expenses decreased by $3,946,301, or 68%, while the number of surgery cases decreased 51%. The percentage decrease in medical services and supplies was higher than the percentage decrease in the number of surgery cases due to a 76% decrease in inpatient cases, which typically require more medical services and supplies, and also due to a change in the surgical mix of cases.

 

   

Other operating expenses decreased by $4,156,080, or 48%. Marketing expenses, included in other operating expenses, decreased by $2,942,435, from $3,300,000 for the nine months ended May 31, 2010 to $357,565 for the nine months ended May 31, 2011. The decrease in marketing expenses and in other operating expenses was associated with lower net revenues.

 

   

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased by $670,650 in 2011 compared to 2010. Our long-lived assets for discontinued operations of our U.S. facilities are measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the carrying value of the U.S. facilities at May 31, 2011 was less than the estimated fair value less cost to sell, and no adjustment to the carrying value of this long-lived asset was necessary during the nine months ended May 31, 2011. We ceased the depreciation of the property and equipment related to the U.S. facilities starting September 1, 2010.

Other income (expense) for the quarter ended May 31, 2011 of $(1,711,095) includes interest expense of $1,744,731 associated with the stop-loss cases discussed above.

The benefit for income taxes for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 and 2010 was 34.9% and 34.6%, respectively.

Cash flow from operating activities

Cash flow provided by operating activities for continuing activities was $807,518 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011, primarily due to net changes in income tax related accounts of $1,719,210 and decreases in accounts receivable of $1,271,784, partially offset by net loss before discontinued operations of $1,731,666 and decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $576,217.

In addition, cash flow used in operating activities from discontinued operations was $2,370,158 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011, primarily due to loss from operations.

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash flow used in investing activities for continuing activities was $1,266,052 primarily due to the purchase of trading securities of $5,330,795 and related sales of $4,064,743. As of May 31, 2011, the Company is holding certain trading securities with a fair market value of $1,295,519. The cost of these securities was $1,415,664.

In addition, cash flow used in investing activities for discontinued operations was $109,183 towards purchase of equipment.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash flow used in financing activities for continuing activities was $3,490. In September 2010, the Company borrowed $65,000 as note payable from a financial institution at an interest rate of 6%. This note payable is to be repaid in 24 monthly installments and is secured by specific equipment purchased at our Pasadena facility. The Company has paid $20,834 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011 towards this note payable. In addition, the Company paid $47,656 towards a mortgage loan for the purchase of an apartment in Hong Kong.

In addition, cash flow used in financing activities for discontinued operations was $99,681 towards payments on capital leases of equipment.

Total cash flow used in financing activities for continuing and discontinued operations combined was $103,171 during the nine months ended May 31, 2011.

The Company had working capital of $26,098,417 as of May 31, 2011 and maintained a liquid position by a current ratio of approximately 2.3 to 1.

We believe we will be able to meet our ongoing liquidity and cash needs for fiscal year 2011 through the combination of available cash and cash flow from operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance related to fair value disclosure requirements. The new guidance resulted in a change in the Company’s accounting policy effective March 1, 2010. Under this guidance, companies will be required to make additional disclosures concerning significant transfers of amounts between the Level 1 and Level 2 fair value disclosures, as well as further disaggregation of the types of activity that were previously disclosed in the rollforward of Level 3 fair value disclosures. Further, the guidance clarifies the level of aggregation of assets and liabilities within the fair value hierarchy that may be presented. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance concerning measuring liabilities at fair value, which resulted in a change in the Company’s accounting policy effective September 1, 2009. The new accounting guidance provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using certain valuation techniques. Additionally, it clarifies that a reporting entity is not required to adjust the fair value of a liability for the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 7, 2011 the Company, acting through its wholly owned subsidiary, Doctors Practice Management, Inc. (“DPM”), entered into a definitive Common Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire minority membership interests in CCM&D Consulting, L.L.C. (“CCM&D”) and GreenTree Administrators, L.L.C. (“GreenTree”). Additionally, DPM entered into a Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D for the establishment and operation of a series of medical clinics in the southern United States area. The principal of CCM&D, a clinic management company, and GreenTree, a third party administrator contracted by self-funded employees’ health care programs sponsored by employers, is Dr. Garry Craighead. CCM&D currently operates four clinics in Texas under the name Union Treatment Centers. The Company acquired a 15% and 40% membership interest in CCM&D and GreenTree, respectively. The Company purchased said interests with 125,000 shares of Dynacq Healthcare, Inc. common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as set forth in the Common Stock Purchase Agreement with CCM&D and GreenTree.

Pursuant to the Management and Consulting Agreement with CCM&D, DPM will furnish $250,000 in startup capital for each of a total of ten clinics during the next twelve months. The location and operating budget for each clinic will be subject to prior approval by DPM. Each clinic will be owned or leased by DPM, will be managed by CCM&D, and will bear the name Union Treatment Centers. CCM&D’s management fee will be 40% of the aggregate profits of the clinics, if any. The billing and collections for the clinics will be performed by CCM&D under the supervision of DPM. The Management and Consulting Agreement contains an initial term of one year, and is subject to renewal and to early termination.

Additionally, Dr. Garry Craighead became the Company’s Chief Development Officer upon execution of an Employment Agreement which granted Dr. Craighead an additional 125,000 shares of Dynacq common stock restricted pursuant to SEC Rule 144 as compensation. Further, under said Employment Agreement the Company granted Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company

pursuant to the Company’s Year 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, and the Company will pay Dr. Craighead an annual salary of $200,000. It will further grant Dr. Craighead an incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, upon shareholder approval. Both the Year 2011 Stock Incentive Plan and the grant of the incentive stock option to purchase an additional 3,000,000 shares have been approved by the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee, but are subject to approval by the shareholders. The entire 4,500,000 stock option grants are performance awards attributable to his efforts. Specifically, 15,000 shares will vest based on the employee’s obtainment of each $1,000,000 of net collections for the Company, up to the maximum of 4,500,000 shares over five years.

The intention of the parties in entering into these transactions is to create an integrated healthcare system to provide efficient and cost-effective patient care, in accordance with the concept of an Accountable Care Organization.

Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities

As described above, on July 7, 2011, the Company issued to Dr. Craighead (i) 125,000 shares of common stock in consideration for the membership interests in CCM&D and GreenTree pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement and (ii) 125,000 shares of common stock and an incentive stock option to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock as compensation for his employment as Chief Development Officer, with an incentive stock option for an additional 3,000,000 shares to be issued to him upon shareholder approval. Both incentive stock options expire in five years, have an exercise price equal to the closing stock price of the Company on the date of grant and have a vesting schedule tied to Dr. Craighead’s job performance. Specifically, 15,000 shares will vest based on the employee’s obtainment of each $1,000,000 of net collections for the Company attributable to his efforts, up to the maximum of 4,500,000 shares over five years.

The Company issued the securities to Dr. Craighead under the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
