This information is based on management’s reasonable assumptions and beliefs in light of the information currently available to us and is current as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking information contained in this Quarterly Report as a result of various factors.
Particularly, forward-looking statements include information regarding our expectations of future results, performance, achievements, prospects or opportunities or the markets in which we operate. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans”, “targets”, “expects” or “does not expect”, “is expected”, “an opportunity exists”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “outlook”, “forecasts”, “projection”, “prospects”, “strategy”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “does not anticipate”, “believes”, or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “might”, “will”, “will be taken”, “occur” or “be achieved”. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances contain forward-looking information. Forward-looking statements are not facts but instead represent management’s expectations, estimates and projections regarding future events or circumstances.
Many factors could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements or future events or developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: macroeconomic factors such as inflation and recessionary conditions, substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses from operations; inability to increase cash flow and/or raise sufficient capital to support the Company’s operating activities and fund its cash obligations, repay indebtedness and satisfy the Company’s working capital needs and debt obligations and obligations under the Arrangement Agreement (as defined below); prolonged decline in the price of the Company’s common shares (“Common Shares”) reducing the Company’s ability to raise capital; inability to satisfy debt covenants under the Credit Agreement and the potential acceleration of indebtedness, risks related to our ability to continue to negotiate amendments to the Credit Agreement to prevent a default; risks relating to maintaining an active, liquid and orderly trading market for our Common Shares as a result of our delisting from trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”); risks related to the Company’s negative cash flows, liquidity and its ability to secure additional financing; increases in indebtedness levels causing a reduction in financial flexibility; inability to achieve or sustain profitability in the future; inability to secure additional financing to fund losses from operations and satisfy our debt obligations; risks relating to completion of the Neuronetics Transaction or any other strategic alternatives to the Neuronetics Transaction should it fail to be consummated, including restructuring or refinancing of our debt, seeking additional debt or equity capital, reducing or delaying our business activities and strategic initiatives, or selling assets, other strategic transactions and/or other measures, including obtaining bankruptcy protection, and the terms, value and timing of any transaction resulting from that process; risks and uncertainties related to the Neuronetics Transaction, including the timing for completion thereof, receipt of shareholder approvals in connection therewith, and the ability to achieve the benefits expected to be derived therefrom; claims made by or against the Company, which may be resolved unfavorably to us; risks relating to the Company’s dependence on Neuronetics, Inc. (“Neuronetics”) as its exclusive supplier of TMS Devices (as defined below); risks and uncertainties relating to the restatement of our financial statements for Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal Q3 2023, including any potential litigation and/or regulatory proceedings as well as any adverse effect on investor confidence and our reputation; as well as the factors discussed in the “Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors” section of this Quarterly Report. Additional risks and uncertainties are discussed in the Company’s materials filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 26, 2024 in respect of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). These factors are not intended to represent a complete list of the factors that could affect us; however, these factors should be considered carefully.

2. | Basis of presentation: |
(a) | Going concern: |
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the basis of presentation outlined in note 2(b) on the assumption that the Company is a going concern and will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the next 12 months.

The terms of the Madryn Credit Facility require the Company to satisfy various financial covenants including a minimum liquidity and minimum consolidated revenue amounts that became effective on July 14, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively. A failure to comply with these covenants, or failure to obtain a waiver for any non-compliance, would result in an event of default under the Madryn Credit Agreement and would allow Madryn to accelerate repayment of the debt, which could materially and adversely affect the business, results of operations and financial condition of the Company. On February 21, 2023, March 20, 2023, June 14, 2023, July 3, 2023, July 14, 2023, August 1, 2023, August 14, 2023, September 15, 2023, September 29, 2023, October 12, 2023, November 15, 2023, December 14, 2023, January 19, 2024, February 15, 2024, March 15, 2024, March 28, 2024, May 1, 2024, June 4, 2024, June 25, 2024, July 18, 2024 and August 2, 2024, the Company received waivers from Madryn with respect to the Company’s non-compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant which has been extended to September 9, 2024. In addition, the Company also received a waiver relating to the requirement to deliver financial statements within 90 days of each fiscal year end until April 26, 2024, and audited financial statements for such fiscal year, accompanied by a report and opinion of an independent certified public accountant which is not subject to any “going concern” or like qualification or exception or any qualification or exception as to the scope of such audit. As at June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants of the Madryn Credit Agreement, as amended.
On July 18, 2024 and August 2, 2024, the Company received an aggregate of $
On February 22, 2024, the Company received the final delisting notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) due to the continued failure to satisfy either the $1.00 minimum bid price listing requirement in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) or the minimum stockholders’ equity requirements in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b). Consequently, the trading of the Company’s Common Shares was suspended as of the open of trading on February 26, 2024. The Company determined that it was in the overall best interests of the Company not to appeal the decision. Subsequently, the Company’s Common Shares have been quoted on OTCQB Market, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. (the “OTCQB Market”).

2.Basis of presentation (continued):
Although the Company believes it will become cash flow positive in the future, the timing of this is uncertain given that the Company has historically not been able to meet its forecast, and is also dependent on the continued execution of the Restructuring Plan (as defined below) (see note 24), and our ability to meet our debt obligations and remain in compliance with debt covenants. The Company will require additional financing in order to fund its operating and investing activities, including making timely payments to certain vendors, landlords, lenders (including shareholders) and similar other business partners. The delay in such payments may result in potential defaults under the terms of the agreements the Company has with various parties. As such, additional financing is required in order for the Company to repay its short-term obligations. The Company has historically been able to obtain financing from supportive shareholders, its lenders and other sources when required; however, the Company may not be able to access further equity or debt financing when needed. As such, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional liquidity when needed or under acceptable terms, if at all. If additional financing is not obtained, the Company may not be able to repay its short-term obligations and will need to obtain additional amendments or waivers from Madryn in order to remain compliant with the covenants and avoid Madryn accelerating repayment of the debt; however, there can be no assurances that such amendments or waivers will be obtained, which may result in a requirement to file for bankruptcy protection. The existence of the above-described conditions indicate substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as at June 30, 2024.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the going concern assumptions were not appropriate. If the going concern basis was not appropriate for these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses, and the condensed interim consolidated balance sheet classification used, and these adjustments may be material.
(b) | Basis of measurement: |
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historic cost basis except for financial instruments classified as fair value through profit or loss, which are stated at their fair value. Other measurement bases are described in the applicable notes.
Presentation of the condensed interim consolidated balance sheet differentiates between current and non - current assets and liabilities. The condensed interim consolidated statements of comprehensive loss are presented using the function classification of expense.
Regional operating loss presents regional operating loss on an entity-wide basis and is calculated as total revenue less direct center and patient care costs, other regional and center support costs, and depreciation. These costs encapsulate all costs (other than incentive compensation such as share-based compensation granted to senior regional employees) associated with the center and regional management infrastructure, including the cost of the delivery of treatments to patients and the cost of the Company’s regional patient acquisition strategy.

3. | Material accounting policies: |
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the material accounting policies consistent with those applied in the Company’s December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements, except as described below relating to the application of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
(a) | Revenue recognition: |
Other revenue is recognized at a point in time upon the performance of services under contracts with customers and represents the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Other revenue includes revenue from research agreements.
Research agreements consist of arrangements with other companies to perform studies and investigational tasks on the delivery and scalability of various treatment modalities. Revenue related to research agreements is recognized based on the completion of pre-set milestones, outlined in the contract.
4. | Recent accounting pronouncements: |
Recent accounting pronouncements adopted:
The SEC has issued the following amendments to the existing standards that became effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024:
(i) | Accounting Standards Update 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This standard introduces improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. |
The adoption of the amendments to the existing standards did not have a material impact on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

16. | Contingencies: |
The Company may be involved in certain legal matters arising from time to time in the normal course of business. The Company records provisions that reflect management’s best estimate of any potential liability relating to these matters.
On May 24, 2023, the Success TMS and its direct and indirect owners, including Benjamin Klein filed a complaint in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware against the Company and certain executive officers of the Company, and subsequently filed a first amended complaint on August 31, 2023 (the “Delaware Complaint”), concerning alleged disputes arising out of the Success TMS Acquisition (the “Purchase Agreement Claims”). The Purchase Agreement Claims allege contractual fraud, indemnification for breach of certain representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated as of May 15, 2022 (the “Purchase Agreement”), other breaches of the Purchase Agreement and a registration rights agreement, and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. The Delaware Complaint seeks damages in an amount to be determined at trial, which are alleged to exceed $
The Company believes that the resolution of the matter is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

18. | Income taxes: |
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to the Company’s tax position.
19. | Risk management arising from financial instruments: |
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to risks related to financial instruments that can affect its operating performance. These risks, and the actions taken to manage them, are as follows:
(a) | Fair value: |
The Company has Level 1 financial instruments which consists of cash, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities which approximate their fair value given their short-term nature. The Company also has lender warrants and DSUs that are considered Level 2 financial instruments (see note 11). The Company has deferred and contingent consideration (note 12) that are considered Level 3 financial instruments.
The carrying value of the loans payable, shareholder loans and finance lease obligations approximates their fair value given the difference between the discount rates used to recognize the liabilities in the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets and the market rates of interest is insignificant.

19.Risk management arising from financial instruments (continued):
Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: financial assets or financial liabilities.
(b) | Credit risk: |
Credit risk arises from the potential that a counterparty will fail to perform its obligations. The Company is exposed to credit risk from patients and third-party payors including federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is mitigated in large part due to the majority of the accounts receivable balance being receivable from large, creditworthy medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans.
The Company’s aging schedule in respect of its accounts receivable balance as at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 is provided below:
| June 30, |
| December 31, | |||
Days since service delivered | 2024 | 2023 | ||||

91 - 180 |
| |
| | ||
181 - 270 |
| | | |||
270+ | | | ||||
Total accounts receivable | $ | | $ | |
Based on the Company’s industry, none of the accounts receivable in the table above are considered “past due”. Furthermore, the payors have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As such, the timing of collections is not linked to increased credit risk. The Company continues to collect on services rendered in excess of 24 months from the date such services were rendered.
(c) | Liquidity risk: |
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet its financial commitments or can only do so at excessive cost. The Company ensures there is sufficient liquidity to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations, its holdings of cash and its ability to raise capital from existing or new investors and/or lenders (see note 2(a)).

19. | Risk management arising from financial instruments (continued): |
(d) | Currency risk: |
Currency risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of those rates. The Company has minimal exposure to currency risk as substantially all of the Company’s revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company pays certain vendors and payroll costs in Canadian dollars from time to time, but due to the limited size and nature of these payments it does not give rise to significant currency risk.
(e) | Interest rate risk: |
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its cash and long-term debt. Certain loans payable and shareholder loans (see note 9 and note 10) bear interest at a rate equal to the 3-month Term SOFR plus
20. | Capital management: |
The Company’s objective is to maintain a capital structure that supports its long-term growth strategy, maintains creditor and customer confidence, and maximizes shareholder value.
The capital structure of the Company consists of its shareholders’ equity, including contributed surplus and deficit, as well as loans payable and shareholder loans.
The Company’s primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new center start-up costs, increase non-cash working capital, capital expenditures and finance service debt obligations. The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to ensure the Company will continue to have enough liquidity so it can provide its services to its customers and returns to its shareholders. The Company, as part of its annual budgeting process and on an ongoing basis, periodically evaluates its estimated cash requirements to fund working capital requirements of existing operations. Based on this and taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash, the Company validates whether it has the sufficient capital or needs to obtain additional capital.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides information concerning the financial condition and results of operations of Greenbrook TMS Inc. (the “Company”, “Greenbrook”, “us” or “we”). This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three-and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, including the related notes thereto, included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”), and our audited consolidated financial statements, including the related notes thereto, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). The financial information contained in this MD&A is derived from the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP” or “GAAP”) as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ASC 270 – Interim Reporting, as issued by the FASB. Our fiscal year is the 12-month period ending December 31.
All references in this Quarterly Report to “Q2 2024” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, all references to “Q2 2023” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, all references to “Q1 2024” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, all references to “Q3 2023” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, and all references to “Q4 2023” are to our fiscal quarter for the three-month period ended December 31, 2023. All references in this MD&A to “YTD 2024” are to the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and all references to “YTD 2023” are to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023. All references in this Quarterly Report to “Fiscal 2024” are to our fiscal year ending on December 31, 2024, all references in this Quarterly Report to “Fiscal 2023” are to our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and all references in this Quarterly Report to “Fiscal 2022” are to our fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.
Amounts stated in this Quarterly Report are in United States dollars, unless otherwise indicated.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING NON-US GAAP MEASURES
This Quarterly Report makes reference to certain non-GAAP measures. These measures are not recognized measures under US GAAP, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by US GAAP and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those US GAAP measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, these measures are not intended to represent, and should not be considered as alternatives to, loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook or other performance measures derived in accordance with US GAAP as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. In addition to our results determined in accordance with US GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures including, “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” (each as defined below). These non-GAAP measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on US GAAP measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of issuers. However, we caution you that “Adjusted EBITDA” may be defined by us differently than by other companies. Our management also uses non-GAAP measures to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation.
We define such non-GAAP measures as follows:
“EBITDA” is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as net income (loss) before amortization, depreciation, interest expenses, interest income and income taxes. The US GAAP measurement most directly comparable to EBITDA is loss attributable to common shareholders of Greenbrook.
40
“Adjusted EBITDA” is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as EBITDA, adjusted for share-based compensation expenses and one-time expenses and other expenses that do not relate to our underlying business performance. We believe our Adjusted EBITDA metric is a meaningful financial metric as it measures the ability of our current mental health service centers (“Treatment Centers”) that specialize in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (“TMS”) and Spravato® (esketamine nasal spray) (“Spravato®”) treatments (“Treatment”) operations to generate earnings while eliminating the impact of one-time expenses and share-based compensation and other expenses that do not have an impact on the operating performance of our existing Treatment Center network or otherwise reflect our underlying business performance. The US GAAP measurement most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is loss attributable to common shareholders of Greenbrook.
See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” below for a quantitative reconciliation of the foregoing non-US GAAP measures to their most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with US GAAP.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
There have been no changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates and judgments since the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
CHANGES IN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Other than as described herein, there are no recent accounting pronouncements that are applicable to the Company or that are expected to have a significant impact on the Company.
OVERVIEW
Through our Treatment Centers, we are a leading provider of TMS therapy in the United States for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (“MDD”) and other mental health disorders. Our predecessor, TMS NeuroHealth Inc. (now TMS NeuroHealth Centers Inc. (“TMS US”)), was established in 2011 to take advantage of the opportunity created through the paradigm-shifting technology of TMS, a non-invasive therapy for the treatment of MDD cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). In 2018, our Treatment Centers began offering treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (“OCD”). Our business model takes advantage of the opportunity for a new, differentiated service channel for the delivery of innovative treatments – a patient-focused, centers-based service model to make treatment easily accessible to all patients while maintaining a high standard of care. We identify the following key opportunity drivers for our business:
● | the safety and efficacy of TMS as a treatment option for patients suffering from MDD and OCD; |
● | the growing societal awareness and acceptance of depression as a treatable disease and a corresponding reduction in stigma surrounding depression, seeking treatment and mental health issues generally; |
● | the growing acceptance, but under-adoption, of TMS; |
● | the poor alignment of TMS treatment with traditional practices of psychiatry which created an opportunity for a new, differentiated service channel; |
● | the fragmented competitive landscape for TMS treatment which provides an opportunity for consolidation; and |
● | the track record of success by the management team in multi-location, center-based healthcare service companies. |
Beginning in 2021, we commenced our roll-out of Spravato® (esketamine nasal spray) therapy in our Treatment Centers to treat treatment-resistant depression in adults and depressive symptoms in adults with MDD with acute suicidal ideation or behavior. We have since grown to offer Spravato® at 91 Treatment Centers within our operating network as of the date of this Quarterly Report.
41
In late 2023, we commenced the facilitation of medication management (“Medication Management”) at select Treatment Centers across our footprint, building on our long-term business plan of utilizing our Treatment Centers as platforms for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders. We believe that becoming a more comprehensive mental health care provider will allow us to provide greater access to those suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders.
In addition, in late 2023 we have also entered into the research collaboration agreement with Compass Pathways plc (the “Research Collaboration Agreement”), to explore delivery models for investigational COMP360 psilocybin treatment (“COMP360”). We believe we are on the forefront of innovative treatment delivery using our experience and nationwide presence to offer a platform for scaling new treatments that solve issues with awareness, geographic convenience and fiscal viability so patients can receive and benefit from the latest therapeutics.
After opening our first Treatment Center in 2011 in Tysons Corner in Northern Virginia, we have grown to control and operate a network of outpatient mental health service centers that specialize in Treatment across the United States. We offer Treatment Centers in convenient locations to provide easy access to patients and clinicians. As at June 30, 2024, the Company owned and operated 130 Treatment Centers in the Commonwealths of Massachusetts, Virginia and Pennsylvania and the States of Maryland, North Carolina, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, Texas, Connecticut, Florida, South Carolina, Michigan, Alaska, Oregon, California, New Jersey, and Nevada. In connection with the Restructuring Plan (as defined below), the Company decreased its operating footprint by closing a total of 53 Treatment Centers, bringing the total number of Treatment Center locations to 130 (from 183), spanning 17 management regions. In addition to increased cost efficiencies, the Company believes that a more condensed operating footprint is optimal in light of the Company’s shift towards a more comprehensive mental health care model, including an increased focus on Spravato® therapy. See “Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results—Restructuring Plan” and “Key Highlights and Recent Developments—Spravato® Program” below.
Our regional model seeks to develop leading positions in key markets and to leverage operational efficiencies by combining smaller local Treatment Centers within a region under a single shared regional management infrastructure. Management regions typically cover a specific metropolitan area that meets a requisite base population threshold. The management region is typically defined by a manageable geographic area which facilitates the use of regional staff working across the various Treatment Center locations within the management region and creates a marketing capture area that allows for efficiencies in advertising costs. Management regions often have similar economic characteristics and are not necessarily defined by state lines, other geographic borders, or differentiating methods of services delivery, but rather are defined by a functional management area.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Service revenue in Q2 2024 increased by 8% to $19.1 million, as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $17.7 million), despite the closure of Treatment Centers in connection with the execution of the Restructuring Plan, and the impact of the patient billing and collections disruptions (as described below) that continue to impact the broader industry. Service revenue in Q2 2024 increased by 6% as compared to Q1 2024 (Q1 2024: $18.0 million) with the same number of active centers in both periods. Q2 2024 also saw the introduction of other revenue, as the Company completed key milestones in the Research Collaboration Agreement, with $1.3 million in other revenue recorded in Q2 2024. We are eager to continue our progress through the Research Collaboration Agreement and are optimistic of the potential to enter into similar agreements. We believe we are on the forefront of innovative treatment delivery using our experience and nationwide presence to offer a platform for scaling new treatments that solve issues with awareness, geographic convenience and fiscal viability so patients can receive and benefit from the latest therapeutics.
Treatment volumes in Q2 2024 were 83,940, a 3% increase compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: 81,855), and new patient starts decreased in Q2 2024 by 5% to 2,518, as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: 2,647).
We believe that mental health remains a key focus in the United States, and the unmet demand for Treatment remains at an all-time high, with our network of Treatment Centers well-positioned to serve this unmet demand. We believe that the recent Neuronetics Transaction (as defined below) creates a vertically-integrated organization capable of providing access to mental health treatment with significant scale in the U.S. to help better serve patients. Beyond the strategic benefits, the transaction is expected to create compelling financial benefits, including increased revenue scale and a strong growth trajectory, material cost synergies, an accelerated path to profitability, and a bolstered balance sheet (see “Key Highlights and Recent Developments— Neuronetics Transaction” below).
42
We believe our business fundamentals are stronger than ever with the growth of the Spravato® program, the opportunity to increase marketing investment in our streamlined business, the introduction of Medication Management and talk therapy (see “Key Highlights and Recent Developments—Medication Management Program” and “—Talk Therapy Program” below) and potential future treatment opportunities.
Neuronetics Transaction
On August 12, 2024, the Company announced that they have entered into a definitive arrangement agreement dated as of August 11, 2024 (the “Arrangement Agreement”) in which Neuronetics will acquire all of the outstanding Common Shares in an all-stock transaction (the “Neuronetics Transaction”). The Board of Directors of each of the Company and Neuronetics have unanimously approved the Neuronetics Transaction.
Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement:
● | Prior to the completion of the Neuronetics Transaction, all of the Company’s existing debt accrued under the Credit Agreement and the Subordinated Convertible Notes (as defined below) will be converted into Common Shares. |
● | The Company’s shareholders will receive a fraction of shares of Neuronetics common stock for each Common Share owned at the exchange ratio described below such that immediately following the closing of the Neuronetics Transaction, Neuronetics shareholders will own approximately 57% of the combined company, and the Company’s shareholders will own approximately 43% of the combined company, respectively, on a fully diluted basis. As of the date of the Arrangement Agreement, each Common Share is expected to be exchanged for 0.01149 shares of Neuronetics common stock at the closing of the Neuronetics Transaction, subject to adjustment for any interim period funding by Madryn Asset Management LP and its affiliates (“Madryn”) and other customary adjustments prior to the closing based on the terms of the Arrangement Agreement. An aggregate of 25,304,971 Neuronetics shares will be issued to the Company’s shareholders in connection with the Neuronetics Transaction. |
● | The Neuronetics Transaction will be implemented by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario). The Neuronetics Transaction must be approved by the Superior Court of Ontario (Commercial List), which will consider the fairness and reasonableness of the Neuronetics Transaction to all of the Company’s shareholders. |
● | As part of the Neuronetics Transaction, Madryn has agreed to convert all of the amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement and all of the Subordinated Convertible Notes (including notes held by Madryn and other third-parties, which are forced to convert as a result of Madryn’s election) into Common Shares prior to the effective date of the Neuronetics Transaction. As a result, subject to adjustment for any interim period funding by Madryn and other customary adjustments, Madryn will own 95.3% of the Common Shares immediately prior to closing and will receive 95.3% of the Neuronetics common stock being issued to the Company’s shareholders. |
● | The Neuronetics Transaction requires approval by (i) at least 66 2/3% of the votes cast by the holders of Common Shares present in person or represented by proxy at a special meeting of the holders of the Common Shares to be called to consider the transaction; and (ii) a simple majority of the votes cast by the holders of Common Shares present in person or represented by proxy, excluding Common Shares that are required to be excluded under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (including Common Shares held by Madryn). |
● | The Arrangement Agreement provides for mutual termination fees of $1,900,000 in the event the Neuronetics Transaction is terminated by either party in certain circumstances, including to enter into a superior proposal. |
● | The combined company will continue to operate as Neuronetics, Inc., and trade under the ticker “STIM” on Nasdaq. Following closing of the Neuronetics Transaction, Neuronetics intends to cause the Common Shares to be delisted from the OTCQB Market and to cause the Company to submit an application to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws. |
43
Each of Neuronetics’ directors and certain members of the executive leadership team, as of August 12, 2024, who hold in the aggregate 1,680,718 Neuronetics shares (representing approximately 5.55% of issued and outstanding Neuronetics shares (on a fully-diluted basis)) have entered into voting support agreements agreeing to vote their stock in favor of the Neuronetics Transaction.
Key shareholders of the Company, including Madryn and certain holders of Subordinated Convertible Notes, and directors and certain members of the executive leadership team, as of August 12, 2024, who hold in the aggregate 16,536,208 Common Shares (representing approximately 48.7% of issued and outstanding Common Shares (on a non-diluted basis and assuming the cancellation of 11,634,660 outstanding Common Shares on or about August 15, 2024, as previously disclosed) have entered into voting support agreements agreeing to vote their Common Shares in favor of the Neuronetics Transaction.
The Madryn voting agreement is terminable under certain specified circumstances including in the event of receipt of a superior proposal that satisfies a hurdle that represents a 20% premium to the value of the consideration payable under this transaction and, concurrently therewith, the Arrangement Agreement is terminated for a superior proposal upon payment of a termination fee. The voting agreement entered into with other key shareholders of the Company are terminable under certain specified circumstances, including upon the termination of the Madryn voting agreement.
The Neuronetics Transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2024, subject to approval by both the Company’s and Neuronetics’ shareholders, court approval in respect of the plan of arrangement as well as other customary closing conditions. A copy of the Arrangement Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.3 to this Quarterly Report.
Patient Billing and Collections Disruptions
On February 21, 2024, Change Healthcare Solutions LLC (“Change Healthcare”), one of the largest healthcare payment cycle management providers within the United States, experienced a ransomware cyberattack. The Company uses third-party vendors for the submission and payment of claims for Treatment services that are covered by insurance, and insurance payers in turn process these claims using Change Healthcare or similar payment cycle management providers. As such, the cybersecurity incident at Change Healthcare did not involve the Company’s information systems, including those third-party systems used by it.
This incident, while occurring downstream to the Company and its vendors, has resulted in a temporary backlog on the submission and payment of claims for the Company in addition to an impact on the Company’s other critical patient intake processes, causing a decrease in new patient starts. The impact of the incident was not immediately apparent to the Company given the downstream relationship to Change Healthcare as well as the efforts by the Company’s billing vendors to use alternative platforms to mitigate its effects. However, in connection with the Company’s quarterly close procedures for Q1 2024, the Company observed a negative impact on its revenues for the quarter, driven by a higher than anticipated adjustment to variable consideration due to the delay in payment processing. In addition, in Q2 2024, the Company experienced a decrease in patient consultations as a result of the Change Healthcare incident, some or all of which the Company anticipates recovering in the remainder of Fiscal 2024. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information” above.
Based on public disclosures made by United Healthcare (the parent company of Change Healthcare), the Company believes that Change Healthcare will be fully operational and all of the Company’s pending claims will be submitted during Fiscal 2024. Accordingly, the Company does not anticipate any material negative impact of the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident on the Company in future periods.
Spravato® Program
The roll-out of our Spravato® program at select Treatment Centers continued throughout Q2 2024, building on our long-term business plan of utilizing our Treatment Centers as platforms for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders. We also rolled-out our first Spravato® “buy & bill” program in Q4 2023 which will allow us to further enhance our access to patients in specific markets that require this program offering as compared to our current “administer and observe” programs. As at the date of this Quarterly Report, we had a total 91 Treatment Centers offering Spravato®.
44
Medication Management Program
During Fiscal 2023, the Company commenced a pilot to roll-out our facilitation of Medication Management to select Treatment Centers across our footprint, building on our long-term business plan of utilizing our Treatment Centers as platforms for the delivery of innovative treatments to patients suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders. Although Medication Management is a lower margin business, we believe this program will allow us to reach patients earlier in their treatment journey, develop an internal patient pipeline for TMS and Spravato®, while also further optimizing marketing costs. We also believe that becoming a more comprehensive mental health care provider will allow us to provide greater access to those suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders. As at the date of this Quarterly Report, we had a total of 12 Treatment Centers offering Medication Management.
Talk Therapy Program
During the first quarter of Fiscal 2024, the Company commenced a pilot to roll-out talk therapy at select Treatment Centers across our footprint. Consistent with Medication Management, we believe this program will allow us to reach patients earlier in their treatment journey, develop an internal patient pipeline for TMS and Spravato®, while also further optimizing marketing costs. We believe that expanding our continuum of care and becoming a more comprehensive mental health care provider will allow us to provide greater access and quality of care to those suffering from MDD and other mental health disorders. As at the date of this Quarterly Report, we offer talk therapy at Treatment Centers in Florida and Missouri.
Board Update
On July 12, 2024, the Company regrettably announced the passing of our beloved board member and co - founder of the Company, Elias Vamvakas.
Debt Financings; Klein Note
On May 1, 2024, the Company borrowed an additional $2.8 million under its Credit Agreement (as defined below). A portion of the proceeds were used to repay the final amounts outstanding under the Klein Note, which settled the Klein Note Action (as defined below). For more information, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources–Indebtedness and Capital Raising” and “Part II, Item 1 Legal Proceedings–Klein Note Action” below.
Purchase Agreement Claims
On August 9, 2024, the Company announced that it entered into a settlement agreement and release (the “PA Settlement Agreement”) in regard to the Purchase Agreement Claims (as defined below). Closing of the settlement is expected to occur on or about August 15, 2024. For more information, see “Part II, Item 1 Legal Proceedings–Purchase Agreement Claims” below.
FACTORS AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE
We believe that our performance and future success depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for us. These factors are also subject to a number of inherent risks and challenges, some of which are discussed below. See also “Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors”.
Number of Treatment Centers
Following the completion of the Restructuring Plan, we believe we will continue to have a meaningful opportunity to selectively increase the number of our Treatment Centers and the number of Treatment Centers offering Spravato® and Medication Management. The opening and success of new Treatment Centers or offering of ancillary products in those Treatment Centers is subject to numerous factors, including our ability to locate the appropriate space, finance the operations, build relationships with clinicians, negotiate suitable lease terms and local payor arrangements, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. At the same time, we have selectively closed certain Treatment Centers to maximize our profitability, which may temporarily reduce our number of active Treatment Centers from quarter to quarter as we continue to aim for overall expansion of the business. In connection with the PA Settlement Agreement, the Company will also transfer 12 Treatment Center locations in the State of New Jersey to Mr. Klein. For more information, see “Part II, Item 1 Legal Proceedings–Purchase Agreement Claims” below.
45
Competition
The market for Treatment is becoming increasingly competitive. We compete principally on the basis of our reputation and brand, the location of our Treatment Centers, the quality of our Treatment services and the reputation of our partner clinicians. In the markets in which we are operating, or anticipate operating in the future, competition predominantly consists of individual clinicians that have a TMS Device, an FDA-regulated medical device specifically manufactured to transmit the magnetic pulses required to stimulate the cortical areas in the brain to effectively treat MDD and other mental health disorders (each, a “TMS Device”), in their office and who can offer TMS therapy directly to their patients. We also face competition from a limited number of multi-location psychiatric practices or behavioral health groups that offer TMS therapy as part of their overall practice, as well as a few other specialist TMS providers. As we expand our mental health products and services to include Spravato®, we also face competition from mental health practitioners that provide similar offerings. We also face indirect competition from pharmaceutical and other companies that develop competitive products, such as anti-depressant medications, with certain competitive advantages such as widespread market acceptance, ease of patient use and well-established reimbursement. Our commercial opportunity could be reduced or eliminated if these competitors develop and commercialize anti-depressant medications or other treatments that are safer or more effective than TMS or Spravato®. At any time, these and other potential market entrants may develop treatment alternatives that may render our products uncompetitive or less competitive.
We are also subject to competition from providers of invasive neuromodulation therapies such as electroconvulsive therapy and vagus nerve stimulation.
Capital Management
Our objective is to maintain a capital structure that supports our long-term business strategy, maintain creditor and customer confidence, and maximize shareholder value. Our primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new center start-up costs, increase non-cash working capital and capital expenditures, as well as to service debt obligations. We have experienced losses since inception and, we expect that we will require additional financing to fund our operating activities and such additional financing is required in order for us to repay our debt obligations and satisfy our cash requirements. We have historically been able to obtain financing from Madryn, supportive shareholders and other sources when required; however, there can be no assurance that we will continue to receive financing support from Madryn and our shareholders in the future. In addition, we are constrained in our ability to raise capital as a result of the delisting of trading of our Common Shares by Nasdaq. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Part II–Item 1A. Risk Factors” below.
Industry and Reimbursement Trends
Our revenue is impacted by changes to United States healthcare laws, our clinical partners’ and contractors’ healthcare costs, the ability to secure favorable pricing structures with device manufacturers and payors’ reimbursement criteria and associated rates. In addition, the geographic distribution of our Treatment Centers can impact our revenues per Treatment because reimbursement rates vary from state to state.
Technology
Our revenues are affected by the availability of, and reimbursement for, new TMS indications, new technology or other novel treatment modalities (including Spravato®) and our ability to incorporate the new technology into our Treatment Centers.
COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Segments
We evaluate our business and report our results based on organizational units used by management to monitor performance and make operating decisions on the basis of one operating and reportable segment: Outpatient Mental Health Service Centers. We currently measure this reportable operating segment’s performance based on total revenues and entity-wide regional operating income.
46
Service Revenue
Service revenue consists of revenue attributable to the performance of treatments. In circumstances where the net patient fees have not yet been received, the amount of revenue recognized is estimated based on an expected value approach. Due to the nature of the industry and complexity of our revenue arrangements, where price lists are subject to the discretion of payors, variable consideration exists that may result in price concessions and constraints to the transaction price for the services rendered.
In estimating this variable consideration, we consider various factors including, but not limited to, the following:
● | commercial payors and the administrators of federally-funded healthcare programs exercise discretion over pricing and may establish a base fee schedule for our services (which is subject to change prior to final settlement) or negotiate a specific reimbursement rate with an individual provider; |
● | average of previous net service fees received by the applicable payor and fees received by other patients for similar services; |
● | management’s best estimate, leveraging industry knowledge and expectations of third-party payors’ fee schedules; |
● | factors that would influence the contractual rate and the related benefit coverage, such as obtaining pre-authorization of services and determining whether the procedure is medically necessary; |
● | probability of failure in obtaining timely proper provider credentialing (including re-credentialling) and documentation, in order to bill various payors which may result in enhanced price concessions; and |
● | variation in coverage for similar services among various payors and various payor benefit plans. |
We update the estimated transaction price (including updating our assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained) to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period in which such variances become known.
Third-party payors include federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. Variable consideration also exists in the form of settlements with these third-party payors as a result of retroactive adjustments due to audits and reviews. We apply constraint to the transaction price, such that net revenues are recorded only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized will not occur in the future.
Other Revenue
Other revenue includes revenue from research agreements (e.g., our Research Collaboration Agreement discussed above). Research agreements consist of arrangements with other companies to perform studies and investigational tasks on the delivery and scalability of various treatment modalities. Revenue related to research agreements is recognized based on the completion of pre - set milestones, outlined in the contract.
Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs
Regional operating income (loss) presents regional operating income (loss) on an entity-wide basis and is calculated as total revenue less direct center and regional costs. Direct center and regional costs consist of direct center and patient care costs, regional employee compensation, regional marketing expenses, and depreciation. These costs encapsulate all costs (other than incentive compensation such as share-based compensation granted to senior regional employees) associated with the center and regional management infrastructure, including the cost of the delivery of treatments to patients and the cost of our regional patient acquisition strategy.
47
Center Development Costs
Center development costs represent direct expenses associated with developing new Treatment Centers, including small furnishings and fittings, wiring and electrical and, in some cases, the cost of minor space alterations.
Corporate Employee Compensation
Corporate employee compensation represents compensation incurred to manage the centralized business infrastructure of the Company, including annual base salary, annual cash bonuses and other non-equity incentives.
Corporate Marketing Expenses
Corporate marketing expenses represent costs incurred that impact the Company on an overall basis including investments in website functionality and brand management activities.
Other Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses
Other corporate, general and administrative expenses represent expenses related to the corporate infrastructure required to support our ongoing business including insurance costs, professional and legal costs and costs incurred related to our corporate offices. Costs related to the Restructuring Plan are also included within other corporate, general and administrative expenses.
Financing Costs
Financing costs represent accounting, legal and professional fees incurred as part of significant transactions.
Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation represents stock options, restricted share units and performance share units granted as consideration in exchange for employee and similar services to align personnel performance with the Company’s long-term goals.
Amortization
Amortization relates to the reduction in useful life of the Company’s intangible assets.
Interest
Interest expense relates to interest incurred on loans and finance lease liabilities. Interest income relates to income realized as a result of investing excess funds into investment accounts.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that deducts from EBITDA share-based compensation expenses and certain other expenses that represent one-time costs or costs that otherwise do not reflect our underlying business performance. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Measures” above.
FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPARABILITY OF OUR RESULTS
Restructuring Plan
On March 6, 2023, the Company announced that it embarked on a comprehensive restructuring plan (the “Restructuring Plan”) that aimed to strengthen the Company by leveraging its scale to further reduce complexity, streamlining its operating model and driving operational efficiencies to achieve profitability.
48
As part of this Restructuring Plan, the Company decreased its operating footprint and headcount and operating expenses. The remaining Treatment Centers will continue clinical TMS offerings and a select and growing number of Treatment Centers will continue offering Spravato (R) therapy.
Regional Development Activity
Our regional model seeks to develop leading positions in key markets, and to leverage operational efficiencies by combining smaller local Treatment Centers within a region under a single shared regional management infrastructure. Part of our core strategy is to continue to develop new Treatment Centers within our existing regions as well as in new management regions, in each case, organically or through acquisitions of existing centers or businesses, which may affect comparability of results. Although we are currently focusing on a more condensed footprint due to the execution of our Restructuring Plan, our long-term growth strategy remains.
Seasonality
Typically, we experience seasonal factors in the first quarter of each fiscal year that result in reduced revenues in those quarters as compared to the other three quarters of the year. These seasonal factors include cold weather and the reset of deductibles during the first part of the year. We also typically experience a slowdown in new patient starts during the third quarter of each fiscal year as a result of summer holidays.

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS FOR Q2 2024 AND YTD 2024
The following section provides an overview of our financial performance during Q2 2024 and YTD 2024 compared to Q2 2023 and YTD 2023.
Service Revenue
Despite the closure of Treatment Centers in connection with the execution of the Restructuring Plan and the impact of the patient billing and collections disruptions, which impacted YTD 2024 revenues, service revenue still increased by 8% to $19.1 million in Q2 2024, compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $17.7 million) and $37.1 million in YTD 2024, relatively consistent to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $37.0 million).
New patient starts decreased to 2,518 in Q2 2024, a 5% decrease compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: 2,647) and 4,966 in YTD 2024, a 10% decrease compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: 5,501). Treatment volumes in Q2 2024 were 83,940, a 3% increase compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: 81,855), and were 159,704 in YTD 2024, an 8% decrease compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: 174,388). Consultations performed were 9,217 in Q2 2024, a 7% decrease compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: 9,924), and were 18,391 in YTD 2024, a 3% increase compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: 17,899). The decreases in new patient starts in Q2 2024 and YTD 2024 are predominantly due to the reduction in Treatment Centers in the 2024 periods as compared to the 2023 periods, as a result of execution of the Restructuring Plan, as well as the impact of the patient billing and collections disruptions. The increase in treatment volumes in Q2 2024 is primarily due to an increase in marketing spend, while the decrease in YTD 2024 is predominately due to the execution of the Restructuring Plan, partially offset by an increase in marketing spend. The decrease in consultations performed in Q2 2024 is primarily due to the impact of the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident, while the increase in YTD 2024 is predominantly due to an overall reinvestment in marketing spend in YTD 2024, which is a leading indicator of future patient starts.
Average service revenue per Treatment increased by 5% to $228 in Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $216) and by 10% to $232 in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $212). The change in average service revenue per Treatment was primarily attributable to changes in payor mix, treatment modalities and the geographical distribution of revenue.
Other Revenue
Other revenue increased to $1.3 million in Q2 2024, compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: nil) and $1.3 million in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: nil). The change in other revenue was primarily due to the recognition of the research collaboration revenue resulting from completion of certain milestones in relation to the Research Collaboration Agreement.
Entity-Wide Regional Operating Loss and Direct Center and Regional Costs
Direct center and regional costs increased by 8% to $20.4 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $18.9 million) and by 6% to $40.9 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $38.7 million). The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in marketing spend in Q2 2024 and investments in our cost structure associated with the continued rollout of Spravato®. As at the date of this Quarterly Report, we had a total 91 Treatment Centers offering Spravato®, an 82% increase or 41 additional Treatment Centers offerings compared to the same date in the prior year.
51
Entity-wide regional operating loss decreased by 97% to $0.04 million during Q2 2024 as compared to $1.20 million in Q2 2023 and was $2.5 million during YTD 2024, a 49% increase as compared to an entity-wide regional operating loss of $1.7 million in YTD 2023. The decrease in entity-wide regional operating loss in Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 was primarily due to the increase in total revenue. The increase in entity-wide regional operating loss in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 was primarily due to the increase in direct center and regional costs, as described above.
Center Development Costs
Center development costs increased by 10% to $0.12 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $0.11 million) and by 10% to $0.24 million during YTD 2024 (YTD 2023: $0.22 million). The increase in Q2 2024 and YTD 2024 was primarily due to minimal incremental costs associated with establishing the Spravato® Program at additional Treatment Centers during YTD 2024.
Corporate Employee Compensation
Corporate employee compensation incurred to manage the centralized business infrastructure of the Company decreased by 3% to $4.0 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $4.1 million) and decreased by 4% to $7.9 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $8.3 million). This decrease is predominately due to the execution of the Restructuring Plan.
Corporate Marketing Expenses
Corporate marketing expenses increased by 242% to $0.09 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $0.03 million) and by 289% to $0.12 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $0.03 million). The increase was primarily due to a return to investment in marketing as compared to Q2 2023 and YTD 2023 which had been limited in the prior period as a result of the execution of the Restructuring Plan in addition to actively limiting expenditures due to liquidity constraints.
Financing Costs
Financing costs were $0.01 million during Q2 2024 (Q2 2023: nil) and decreased by 31% to $0.16 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $0.24 million). The decrease in YTD was due to limited accounting, legal and professional fees being incurred within the year, related to the debt financings completed in YTD 2024 and the February 2024 Public Offering (as defined below), as compared to accounting, legal and professional fees incurred in YTD 2023.
Other Corporate, General and Administrative Expenses
Other corporate, general and administrative expenses decreased by 15% to $3.4 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $4.0 million) and remained relatively consistent at $7.0 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $6.9 million). The decrease in Q2 2024 is predominately due to cost savings realized as a result of the Restructuring Plan.
Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation decreased by 93% to $0.03 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $0.51 million) and decreased by 90% to $0.06 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $0.58 million). The decrease was predominantly due to the timing and fair value of stock options granted to key personnel to ensure retention and long-term alignment with the goals of the Company.
Amortization
Amortization remained consistent at $0.02 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $0.02 million) and $0.03 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $0.03 million).
52
Interest
Interest expense increased by 64% to $4.7 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $2.9 million) and increased by 60% to $8.9 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $5.6 million). The increase in interest expense is primarily due to the debt financings completed during Fiscal 2023 and YTD 2024. See “Indebtedness and Capital Raising” below.
Interest income was $65 during Q2 2024 (Q2 2023: $56) and $130 during YTD 2024 (YTD 2023: $101). The increases were a result of an increase in the amount of excess funds invested.
Loss for the Period and Comprehensive Loss and Loss for the Period Attributable to the Common Shareholders of Greenbrook
The loss for the period and comprehensive loss decreased by 3% to $12.4 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $12.9 million) and increased by 15% to $27.0 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $23.5 million). The decrease in Q2 2024 is due to the decrease in regional operating loss and other corporate, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by an increase in interest expense. The increase in YTD 2024 is predominately due to the increase in regional operating loss and the increase in interest expenses arising from the additional debt financings completed in Q2 2024, partially offset by the decrease in stock based compensation. See “Interest Expense, Entity-Wide Regional Operating Income (Loss) and Direct Center and Regional Costs” above.
The loss attributable to the common shareholders of Greenbrook decreased by 3% to $12.4 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $12.7 million) and increased by 14% to $26.6 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $23.3 million). This was predominantly due to the factors described above impacting net losses.
Adjusted EBITDA and One-Time Expenses
The Adjusted EBITDA loss position remained consistent at $6.3 million during Q2 2024 as compared to Q2 2023 (Q2 2023: $6.4 million) and increased by 25% to $15.0 million during YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 (YTD 2023: $12.1 million). The increase in the Adjusted EBITDA loss position in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 is primarily attributable to an increase in the EBITDA loss position, as well as a decrease in one-time costs in YTD 2024, which include costs related to the execution of the Restructuring Plan, professional and legal fees associated with the Klein Matters, the PA Settlement Agreement, financing fees, the Amendment Fee (as defined below), financing initiatives-related expenses, and costs associated with the Nasdaq delisting and OTCQB Market (as defined below) listing. One-time costs in YTD 2023 include costs related to the execution of the Restructuring Plan, professional and legal fees associated with the Klein Matters and the Neuronetics Note, financing fees, financing initiatives-related expenses and Success TMS related integration expenses.

Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable increased by 43% to $10.9 million as at the end of Q2 2024 as compared to $7.6 million as at the end of Q4 2023. The increase in Q2 2024 is primarily due to the timing of cash collection activity from payors which was delayed by the patient billing and collections disruptions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily from equity offerings, debt financings and revenue generated from our Treatment Centers. Our primary uses of capital are to finance operations, finance new Treatment Center development costs, increase non-cash working capital and fund investments in our centralized business infrastructure. Our objectives when managing capital are to ensure that we will continue to have enough liquidity to provide services to our customers and provide returns to our shareholders. We have also used capital to finance acquisitions and may continue to do so in the future. Cash is held primarily in U.S. dollars.
As part of our annual budgeting process and on an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimated annual cash requirements to fund planned expansion activities and working capital requirements of existing operations. Based on this, in addition to historical cash flow, the debt financings and equity offerings completed in Fiscal 2023 and the early part of Fiscal 2024 (see “—Indebtedness and Capital Raising”) and considering our anticipated cash flows from regional operations and our holdings of cash, we believe that we have sufficient capital to meet our future operating expenses, capital expenditures and debt service requirements for approximately the next month as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Accordingly, we will need to raise additional funding in the near term to satisfy our day-to-day operating expenses. Our ability to fund operating expenses, capital expenditures and future debt service requirements will depend on, among other things, our ability to source external funding, our future operating performance, which will be affected by our ability to meet our debt obligations and remain in compliance with debt covenants, our ability to increase the $115 million cap on the amount indebtedness the Company can accrue under the Credit Agreement set out in the Neuronetics Agreement (as defined below), the outcome of Klein Matters and general economic, financial and other factors, including factors beyond our control such as inflation and recessionary conditions. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information”, “Factors Affecting our Performance” and “Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results—Restructuring Plan” above, and “Part II – Item 1A. Risk Factors” below, as well as further details on our indebtedness and capital raising under “Indebtedness and Capital Raising” below.

Cash Flows used in Operating Activities
For YTD 2024, cash flows used in operating activities (which includes the full cost of developing new Treatment Centers) totaled $25.8 million, as compared to $12.3 million in YTD 2023. The increase in cash flows used in operating activities is primarily due to the increase in loss for the period and comprehensive loss, as well as the change in non-cash working capital, offset by cost reductions related to the implementation of our Restructuring Plan. See “Factors Affecting the Comparability of Our Results—Restructuring Plan” above.
Cash Flows generated from Financing Activities
For YTD 2024, cash flows generated from financing activities amounted to $25.9 million as compared to $11.7 million in YTD 2023. This is primarily driven by the net proceeds from debt financings received in YTD 2024 and the February 2024 Public Offering (as defined below), as compared to the private placement of Common Shares in Q1 2023 (the “2023 Private Placement”) and net loans advanced to the Company in relation to the Credit Agreement in YTD 2023.
55
Cash Flows used in Investing Activities
For YTD 2024, cash flows used in investing activities totaled $0.12 million as compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $0.01 million in YTD 2023, due to the acquisition of subsidiary non-controlling interest in YTD 2024, compared to the purchase of property, plant and equipment in YTD 2023.
INDEBTEDNESS AND CAPITAL RAISING
Credit Agreement
Initial Agreement and Funding
On July 14, 2022 (the “Original Closing Date”), the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with Madryn and its affiliated entities. As of the Original Closing Date, the Credit Agreement provided the Company with a $55 million term loan (the “Existing Loan”), which was funded on the Original Closing Date. In addition, the Credit Agreement permits the Company to draw up to an additional $20 million in a single draw at any time on or prior to December 31, 2024 for purposes of funding future mergers and acquisition activity. Prior to March 31, 2023, all amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement bore interest at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR rate plus 9.0%, subject to a minimum three-month LIBOR floor of 1.5%. Commencing March 31, 2023, as a result of an amendment to the Credit Agreement entered into between the parties on February 21, 2023, all advances under the Credit Agreement will accrue interest at a rate equal to 9.0% plus the 3-month Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (subject to a floor of 1.5%) plus 0.10%. The Credit Agreement matures over 63 months and provides for four years of interest-only payments. The initial principal balance of $55,000,000 is due in five equal 3 month installments beginning on September 30, 2026. The Company has granted a lien on, and security interest over all assets of the Company in connection with the performance and prompt payment of all obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement.
For a further summary of our Credit Agreement, including events of default and ongoing financial covenants see our Annual Report. In addition, a copy of the thirty-seventh amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 2, 2024, is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report.
Credit Facility Amendments and Subsequent Funding
From February 2023 through August 2024, the Company has entered into certain amendments to the Credit Agreement, pursuant to which Madryn and its affiliates have extended twenty-six additional tranches of term loans to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of $58.1 million and each such tranche was fully funded at closing of the applicable amendment (collectively, the “New Loans”). After giving effect to the New Loans and the Existing Loan, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of the date of this Quarterly Report is $113.1 million (collectively, the “Loans”). The Loans provide Madryn with the option to convert up to approximately $7.4 million of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans into Common Shares (the “Madryn Conversion Instruments”) at a price per share equal to $1.90, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments (the “Madryn Conversion Price”).
We entered into the New Loans in part to remain in compliance with the Minimum Liquidity Covenant (as defined below) and in order to satisfy our near-term cash requirements necessary to operate our business. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, full conversion of the Madryn Conversion Instruments at the Madryn Conversion Price would, result in the issuance of up to approximately 3.9 million Common Shares, representing approximately 8.6% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares as at the date of this Quarterly Report. Madryn has received customary registration rights for the Common Shares issuable pursuant to the Madryn Conversion Instruments.
In addition, from December 2022 through August 2024, the Company and Madryn have agreed on a number of occasions to amend the Credit Agreement to temporarily waive the Company’s covenant to maintain minimum liquidity of $3.0 million, tested on a daily basis (the “Minimum Liquidity Covenant”) in order to avoid a breach as a result of the Company’s non-compliance. The most recent amendment to the Minimum Liquidity Covenant, executed on August 2, 2024, extends the reduced Minimum Liquidity Covenant requirement of $300,000 to September 9, 2024, at which time (unless further amended or waived), the Minimum Liquidity Covenant requirement will revert to $3,000,000. We anticipate needing to obtain a further amendment to (or waiver of) the Minimum Liquidity Covenant in order to extend the application of the reduced liquidity requirement of $300,000 beyond September 9, 2024.
56
We also amended the Credit Agreement on June 14, 2023 to provide for an amendment fee payable to Madryn in the amount of $1,000,000 (the “Amendment Fee”), which was paid-in-kind by adding the Amendment Fee to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans. Between Q3 2023 and Q2 2024 we have amended the Credit Agreement to convert the ongoing cash interest payments into paid-in-kind interest. As of August 9, 2024, the total amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement, inclusive of the Loans, Amendment Fee, paid-in-kind interest and all other financing and legal fees is approximately $127.3 million.
Madryn has agreed to convert all of the amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement into Common Shares prior to the effective date of the Neuronetics Transaction. See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments—Neuronetics Transaction” above.
Subordinated Convertible Note
On August 15, 2023, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company may issue subordinated convertible promissory notes (“Subordinated Convertible Notes”) from time to time. On August 28, 2023, the Company exchanged the Insider Notes (as defined below) in an aggregate principal amount of $2.8 million for an equal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement. In addition, between August 2023 and October 2023, the Company issued Subordinated Convertible Notes to Madryn, Greybrook Health Inc. (“Greybrook Health”) and certain other investors, in an aggregate principal amount equal to $6.9 million. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there is approximately $9.7 million aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes issued and outstanding.
All Subordinated Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate consistent with the Credit Agreement and mature on the earlier of March 31, 2028, in the event of a change of control, acceleration of other indebtedness, or six months following repayment or refinancing of all Loans under the Company’s Credit Agreement.
The Subordinated Convertible Notes provide holders the option to convert any amount up to the outstanding principal amount plus accrued interest into Common Shares at any time at the election of the holders thereof or on a mandatory basis by all Subordinated Convertible Noteholders at the request of Madryn. The Subordinated Convertible Notes are convertible into such number of Common Shares equal to the principal amount of Subordinated Convertible Notes to be converted (plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon) divided by a conversion price equal to the lesser of (1) 85% of the closing price per Common Share on Nasdaq or any other market as of the closing date for such notes, as adjusted from time to time for certain dilutive transactions, and (2) (i) 85% of the 30-day volume weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on an applicable trading market (which includes the OTCQB Market, operated by OTC Markets Group Inc (the “OTCQB Market”)) prior to conversion, or (ii) if the Common Shares are not listed on an applicable trading market at the time of conversion, a per share price equal to 85% of the fair market value per Common Share as of such date; provided that, in any event, the conversion price shall not be lower than $0.078 (the “Subordinated Convertible Note Conversion Price”). As of August 9, 2024, the applicable Subordinated Convertible Note Conversion Price is $0.078. Under the Note Purchase Agreement, the maximum number of Common Shares that can be issued under the Subordinated Convertible Notes is 200,000,000 Common Shares.
In connection with the Subordinated Convertible Notes, all Subordinated Convertible Noteholders also received customary resale, demand and “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to the Common Shares issuable upon conversion pursuant to a registration rights agreement, by and among the Company and the noteholders.
Madryn has agreed to convert all of the Subordinated Convertible Notes (including notes held by Madryn and other third-parties, which are forced to convert as a result of Madryn’s election) into Common Shares prior to the effective date of the Neuronetics Transaction. See “Key Highlights and Recent Developments—Neuronetics Transaction” above.
Insider Notes
The Company previously entered into a note purchase agreement, dated as of February 3, 2023, with certain significant shareholders (including Madryn and Greybrook Health) and certain members of management of the Company (the “Noteholders”), pursuant to which the Company issued unsecured notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1.75 million on February 3, 2023 and February 28, 2023 (the “February 2023 Notes”).
57
The Company previously entered into a note purchase agreement, dated as of August 1, 2023, with Greybrook Health, pursuant to which the Company issued an unsecured subordinated note in an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 million to Greybrook Health (the “August 2023 Note”). In connection with the entry into such note purchase agreement, the Company concurrently entered into (i) an amendment to the Credit Agreement and (ii) a consent agreement in respect of the Neuronetics Note (as defined below), in each case, permitting the incurrence of indebtedness under such note purchase agreement.
The Company subsequently exchanged the total par value of the principal for the February 2023 Notes and August 2023 Note (collectively, the “Insider Notes”) for the Subordinated Convertible Notes.
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the aggregate proceeds of the New Loans, the Insider Notes (which were exchanged in full, and extinguished by the issuance of, the Subordinated Convertible Notes issued to the Noteholders on August 28, 2023) and the Subordinated Convertible Notes is equal to approximately $64.7 million.
In connection with the issuance of the Insider Notes, the Company issued a combined total of 385,870 Common Share purchase warrants to Greybrook Health (the “Greybrook Warrants”). 135,870 of the Greybrook Warrants were issued alongside the February 2023 Notes and are exercisable for one Common Share at an exercise price of $1.84, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. 250,000 of the Greybrook Warrants were issued alongside the August 2023 Note and are exercisable for one Common Share at an exercise price equal to (a) if the Common Shares are listed on Nasdaq or any other trading market at the time of exercise, 85.0% of the volume-weighted average trading price of the Common Shares on Nasdaq (or, if not listed on Nasdaq, then such other trading market on which the Common Shares are principally traded, based upon daily share volume) for the five trading days immediately preceding the exercise date, or (b) if the Common Shares are not listed on any trading market at the time of exercise, a per share price based on fair market value, as determined the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), in each case subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The Greybrook Warrants will expire five years from the applicable date of issuance.
Neuronetics Note and Warrants
In January 2023, the Company and Neuronetics, Inc. (“Neuronetics”) jointly announced an expanded commercial partnership through year end 2028. Under the amended and restated master sales agreement between the Company and Neuronetics, dated as of January 17, 2023 (as amended by an amending agreement dated March 16, 2023, the “Neuronetics Agreement”), Neuronetics is the exclusive supplier of TMS Devices to the Company. Over time, Neuronetics’ NeuroStar TMS Devices will replace competitive TMS Devices at the Company’s Treatment Centers. The Neuronetics Agreement also contains minimum purchase commitments, and all treatment session purchases will convert to a “per-click” consumable model.
On March 31, 2023, the Company and Neuronetics agreed to convert the Company’s outstanding account balance payable to Neuronetics in the amount of approximately $5.9 million, together with Neuronetics’ out-of-pocket financing costs, into secured debt in the aggregate principal amount of $6.0 million, pursuant to a secured promissory note and guaranty agreement, by and among Neuronetics, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Neuronetics Note”). All amounts borrowed under the Neuronetics Note will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (a) the floating interest rate of daily secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on its website, plus (b) 7.65%. The Neuronetics Note matures on March 31, 2027. Pursuant to the terms of the Neuronetics Note, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Neuronetics Note, Greenbrook will be required to issue the Neuronetics Warrants (defined below). Additionally, under the Neuronetics Agreement, the Company is required to pay all costs to relocate the TMS Devices supplied by Neuronetics from the Treatment Centers that are closed in connection with the Restructuring Plan and install such TMS Devices in the Company’s Treatment Centers that remain open. In connection with the entry into the Neuronetics Note, the Company concurrently entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement in order to permit the Company to incur the indebtedness under the Neuronetics Note and the lien securing such obligations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Neuronetics Note, upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Neuronetics Note, the Company will be required to issue Common Share purchase warrants (the “Neuronetics Warrants”) to Neuronetics equal to (i) 200% of the unpaid amount of any delinquent amount or payment due and payable under the Neuronetics Note, together with all outstanding and unpaid accrued interest, fees, charges and costs, divided by (ii) the exercise price of the Neuronetics Warrants, which will represent a 20% discount to the 30-day volume-weighted average closing price of the Common Shares traded on Nasdaq prior to the date of issuance (subject to any limitations required by Nasdaq). The events of default under the Neuronetics Note include, without limitation, (a) failure of the Company to make any payment of principal or interest due under the Neuronetics Note within three business days after the payment becomes due; (b) failure of the Company to pay another amount (including late charge or collection costs), within five business days after written request from Neuronetics (c) failure of the Company to timely pay any amount owed under the Neuronetics Agreement; (d) failure of the Company to comply with the covenants in the Neuronetics Note (subject to specified grace periods); (e) cross-default to the Credit Agreement or any other indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000; and (f) entry into any judgment, order or award for payment against the Company or any Subsidiary (as defined in the Neuronetics Note), in each case, in excess of $1,000,000 which continues unsatisfied or unstayed for (i) 30 days after entry or (ii) if earlier, the date on which any lien attaches in respect of such judgment or order.
On May 25, 2023, the Neuronetics Agreement was amended to include additional out-of-pocket expenses, totaling $0.25 million, incurred by Neuronetics in connection with the negotiation, preparation, and delivery of the Neuronetics Note. In addition, Neuronetics has agreed to waive the fee for TMS Device relocations. As at June 30, 2024, the aggregate principal amount remaining on the Neuronetics Note is $4.4 million. The Company has granted a lien on, and security interest in, substantially all of its assets in favor of Neuronetics, as security for the obligations under the Neuronetics Note, and Madryn as security for the obligations under the Credit Agreement. The liens and security interests granted to Neuronetics and Madryn are pari passu (equal priority) pursuant to the terms of an intercreditor agreement, dated as of March 31, 2023, by and among Neuronetics, Madryn and the Company.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Macroeconomic Risk
Macroeconomic conditions may adversely affect our business. Demand for our services may be impacted by weak economic conditions, inflation, stagflation, recession, equity market volatility or other negative economic factors in the United States. Inflation has the potential to adversely affect our liquidity, business, financial condition and results of operations by increasing our overall cost structure. The existence of inflation in the economy has resulted in, and may continue to result in, higher interest rates and capital costs, supply shortages, increased costs of labor, components, manufacturing and shipping, as well as weakening exchange rates and other similar effects. Accordingly, inflation may have a negative impact on our future results of operations, which may be materially adverse. Further, as recessionary conditions develop, our suppliers and other third-party partners may suffer their own financial and economic challenges and as a result they may demand pricing accommodations, delay payment, or become insolvent, which could harm our ability to meet our patients’ demands or collect revenue or otherwise could harm our business. Similarly, disruptions in financial and/or credit markets may impact our ability to manage normal commercial relationships with our patients, suppliers and creditors and might cause us to not be able to continue to access preferred sources of liquidity when we would like, and our borrowing costs could increase. These adverse macroeconomic conditions may also negatively impact patient spending ability, which in turn may negatively impact our revenues. Thus, if general macroeconomic conditions deteriorate, our business and financial results could be materially and adversely affected.
Credit Risk
Credit risk arises from the potential that a counterparty will fail to perform its obligations. We are exposed to credit risk from patients and third-party payors including federal and state agencies (under the Medicare programs), managed care health plans and commercial insurance companies. Our exposure to credit risk is mitigated in large part by the fact that the majority of our accounts receivable balances are receivable from large, creditworthy medical insurance companies and government-backed health plans.
Based on the Company’s industry, none of the accounts receivable is considered “past due”. Furthermore, the payors have the ability and intent to pay, but price lists for the Company’s services are subject to the discretion of payors. As such, the timing of collections is not linked to increased credit risk. The Company continues to collect on services rendered in excess of 24 months from the date such services were rendered.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we may encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet our financial commitments or can only do so at an excessive cost. We aim to ensure there is sufficient liquidity to meet our short-term business requirements, taking into account our anticipated cash flows from operations, our holdings of cash and our ability to raise capital from existing or new investors and/or lenders. We have historically been able to obtain financing from supportive shareholders and other sources when required; however, we can provide no assurance that such shareholders will continue to provide similar financing in the future.
Currency Risk
Currency risk is the risk to our earnings that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of those rates. We have minimal exposure to currency risk as substantially all of our revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars. We pay certain vendors and payroll costs in Canadian dollars from time to time, but due to the limited size and nature of these payments they do not expose us to significant currency risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates on its cash and long-term debt. The Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate equal to the 3-month SOFR benchmark plus 9.1%. In addition, all amounts borrowed under the Neuronetics Note will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (a) the floating interest rate of daily secured overnight financing rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on its website, plus (b) 7.65%.
63
For additional information, see Note 19 of our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024 and for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 for a qualitative and quantitative discussion of our exposure to these market risks.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls & Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted by it under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the securities legislation. Management is also responsible for the information required to be disclosed by the Company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported to senior management, including the interim Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure.
Management, under the oversight of the CEO and CFO, has evaluated the design and effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and the CFO concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as a result of a material weakness identified in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is further described below.
The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and the CEO and CFO do not expect that the disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
There has been no change in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures that occurred during the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures.
Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting (“ICFR”) which is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial reports for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP. In designing such controls, it should be recognized that, due to inherent limitations, any controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Additionally, management is required to use judgment in evaluating controls and procedures.
An evaluation of the design and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting was carried out by management, under the supervision of the CEO and CFO. In making this evaluation, the CEO and CFO used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013).
Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO has concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were ineffective as a result of the identified material weakness.
In connection with the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2023 that were prepared in accordance with US GAAP, and audited in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), our management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Due to the complexities and estimation uncertainty that inherently exist in the recognition of revenue, our management identified a material weakness related to the Company not having effectively designed and maintained controls over the effective preparation, review and approval of its adjustment to variable consideration.
64
This control deficiency, which was not pervasive in nature and was isolated in impact, resulted in a material misstatement to the Company’s financial statements in Fiscal 2022 identified through the audit, which was corrected by management prior to the release of the annual consolidated financial statements for Fiscal 2023 and Fiscal 2022 that are included in this Annual Report. The Company concluded following the discovery of this error that the previously issued financial statements for Fiscal 2022 could no longer be relied upon as the identified error resulted in certain adjustments to the amounts or disclosures isolated to revenue, retained earnings and accounts receivable in Fiscal 2022 and Fiscal 2023. For more information, see the Explanatory Note following the cover page of the Annual Report.
We intend to implement a remediation plan that involves enhancing our current controls surrounding the adjustment to variable consideration, and the expected credit loss model by which it is calculated, by more rigorously testing the inputs into the expected credit loss model.
The CEO and CFO do not expect that internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all misstatements. The design of a system of internal controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that the design will succeed in achieving the stated goals under all potential future conditions. Nevertheless, management has designed and implemented controls to mitigate this risk to the extent practicable.
Notwithstanding the material weakness described above, management has concluded that the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations, changes in equity and cash flows in accordance with US GAAP.
Except as described above in respect of our remediation efforts, there has been no change in the Company’s ICFR that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s ICFR.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Klein Note Action
As previously disclosed, on July 14, 2022, we, through our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, TMS US, completed the Success TMS Acquisition pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated as of May 15, 2022 (the “Success Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Success TMS and its direct and indirect owners, including Success Behavioral Holdings LLC, Theragroup LLC, The Bereke Trust U/T/A Dated 2/10/03, Batya Klein and Benjamin Klein (collectively, the “Seller Parties”).
In addition, on July 14, 2022, in connection with the Success TMS Acquisition, we assumed the obligation of Success TMS to repay the Klein Note totaling $2.1 million. Mr. Klein was also the Chief Operating Officer of Greenbrook from July 2022 until his termination by the Company effective May 4, 2023.
On April 25, 2023, Batya Klein, as trustee of the Marital Trust created by Kenneth S. Klein Revocable Trust U/A/D 10/20/80 (the “Klein Plaintiff”), filed the Klein Note Action alleging that there was an event of default under the Klein Note and demanded acceleration of the indebtedness due thereunder. The Company moved to dismiss the Klein Note Action on the basis that there was no event of default and the demand for acceleration was defective, and that the New Jersey court lacked jurisdiction to hear the matter. On August 18, 2023, the New Jersey court denied the motion to dismiss, ruling that it had jurisdiction to hear the matter and that, assuming the truth of the allegations in the complaint, the Klein Plaintiff had the right to seek legal remedy for the alleged default.
On November 21, 2023, the Company announced it entered into the Klein Note Settlement Agreement. Under the terms of the Klein Note Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to make payments to the Klein Plaintiff in the total amount of approximately $2.2 million, structured as an initial immediate payment of $250,000, weekly payments of $75,000 thereafter up to and until the May 1, 2024 maturity date of the Klein Note, upon which the balance owing will be due. In exchange for entry into the Klein Note Settlement Agreement, the Klein Plaintiff dismissed, with prejudice the Klein Note Action on November 27, 2023, and both parties provided a mutual release of claims. The Klein Note was fully repaid at maturity.

The Delaware Complaint seeks damages in an amount to be determined at trial, which are alleged to exceed $1 million. On October 2, 2023, the Company and the other defendants moved to dismiss the Purchase Agreement Claims.
On November 20, 2023, the court stayed the Purchase Agreement Claims until May 13, 2024. On May 13, 2024, the parties filed a stipulation and proposed order lifting stay and resetting briefing schedule on defendants’ motion to dismiss the Purchase Agreement Claims.
One of the claims at issue in the Purchase Agreement Claims includes alleged breach of the Success Purchase Agreement entered into between the Company and the Seller Parties for failure by the Company to release an additional 2,908,665 Common Shares have been held back and deposited with an escrow agent.
On August 9, 2024, the Company announced that it entered into the PA Settlement Agreement in regard to the Purchase Agreement Claims. Pursuant to the PA Settlement Agreement and in full satisfaction of the claims, Greenbrook has agreed to (i) pay the plaintiffs a cash settlement amount equal to US$800,000, comprised of a US$200,000 up-front payment followed by equal monthly installments of approximately US$67,000, (ii) the entry into an assignment and assumption agreement effectively providing for the transfer to Mr. Klein of Greenbrook’s 12 Treatment Center locations in the State of New Jersey, and (iii) payment of certain payroll taxes owing in the amount of approximately US$110,000, plus interest and penalties owing thereon. Closing of the settlement is expected to occur on or about August 15, 2024.As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we were in compliance with the terms of the PA Settlement Agreement.

Additional Legal Proceedings
In the normal course of business, the Company may become a defendant in certain employment claims and other litigation. The Company records a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable.
