ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

We were a provider and manager of value-based, conservative medical care combining life science advancements with traditional medical care for movement-restricting diseases and conditions in IMAC Regeneration Centers and BackSpace clinics. Our Innovative Medical Advancements and Care (IMAC) Regeneration Centers combine medical and physical procedures to improve patient experiences and outcomes and reduce healthcare costs as compared to other available treatment options. As of December 31, 2023, we closed or sold our outpatient clinics that provide regenerative, orthopedic and minimally invasive procedures and therapies. Our treatments were performed by licensed medical practitioners through our regenerative rehabilitation protocols designed to improve the physical health, to advance the quality of life and to lessen the pain of our patients. We did not prescribe opioids, but instead offered an alternative to conventional surgery or joint replacement surgery by delivering minimally invasive medical treatments to help patients with sports injuries, back pain, knee pain, joint pain, ligament and tendon damage, and other related soft tissue conditions. Our employees focused on providing exceptional customer service to give our patients a memorable and caring experience.

1

Our licensed healthcare professionals have historically provided each patient a custom treatment plan that integrated innovative regenerative medicine protocols (representing 9% of our revenue) with traditional, minimally invasive (minimizing skin punctures) medical procedures (representing 63% of our revenue) in combination with physical therapies (representing 22% of our revenue), chiropractic care (representing 5% of our revenue) and the remaining 1% of our revenue from memberships based on historical averages. We did not use or offer opioid-based prescriptions as part of our treatment options in order to help our patients avoid the dangers of opioid abuse and addiction. We have successfully treated patients that were previously addicted to opioids because of joint or soft tissue related pain. Further, our procedures comply with all professional athletic league drug restriction policies, including the NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB.

Dr. Matthew Wallis, DC, our former President, opened the first IMAC Regeneration Center in Paducah, Kentucky in August 2000, which was our flagship location. Dr. Jason Brame, DC joined Dr. Wallis in 2008. In 2015, Drs. Wallis and Brame hired Jeffrey S. Ervin as our Chief Executive Officer to collectively create and implement their growth strategy. The result was the formal creation of IMAC Holdings, Limited Liability Company ("LLC") to expand IMAC clinics outside of western Kentucky, with such facilities to remain owned or operated under the group using the IMAC Regeneration Center name and services. In June 2018, we completed a corporate conversion in which IMAC Holdings, LLC was converted to IMAC Holdings, Inc. to consolidate ownership of existing clinics and implement our growth strategy. In February 2019, we completed an initial public offering and our shares commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

We focused on providing natural, non-opioid solutions to pain as consumers increasingly demand conservative treatments for an aging population. The demand for our services grew fueled by consumer preferences for organic healthcare solutions over traditionally invasive orthopedic practices. We believed that our regenerative rehabilitation treatments were provided to patients at a much lower price than our primary competitors, including orthopedic surgeons, pain management clinics and hospital systems targeting invasive joint reconstruction. Surgical joint replacements cost several times more than our therapies initially treating the same condition. The U.S. government has recently adopted strict surgery pre-approval initiatives to reduce the cost for CMS and limit the proliferation of opioids since they accompany substantially all joint replacement surgeries.

2

We believed patient satisfaction was driven by our five fundamental beliefs:

We believe that the body has the ability to heal itself, and better results occur with our solutions to unlock the body's natural healing process;
We believe in the power of doctors, from many different specializations, working together for the best patient care possible;
We believe that employees should know patients by their face, not by a chart number;
We believe consumers have a choice regardless of physician referral or insurance coverage; and
We believe a medical setting should be comforting.

We are led by senior executive officers who together have more than 100 years of combined experience in the healthcare services industry. Jeffrey S. Ervin, co-founder of IMAC Holdings and our Chief Executive Officer, joined us in March 2015. Mr. Ervin has a history of sourcing private equity investments and managing private equity operations in the healthcare and other growth industries. Mr. Ervin earned an M.B.A. degree from Vanderbilt University. The founder of our company, Matthew C. Wallis, DC, a licensed chiropractor, was our President through November 2023. Dr. Wallis had implemented strategies in the company to create consistent operating efficiencies for our sales, marketing and service delivery operations. Sheri F. Gardzina serves as our Chief Financial Officer and joined the company in November 2017. Mrs. Gardzina earned an M.B.A. and M.S. from Northeastern University and is a licensed Certified Public Accountant. Ben Lerner, DC, a licensed chiropractor, joined the team in February 2022 as our Chief Operating Officer. Dr. Lerner left the company in February 2023 to pursue other opportunities.

Recent Developments

On May 23, 2023, IMAC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Nasdaq: BACK) (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Theralink Technologies, Inc. (OTC: THER), a Nevada corporation ("Theralink"), and IMAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Theralink (the "Merger"), with Theralink continuing as the surviving entity (the "Surviving Entity") and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On May 22, 2023, the board of directors of the Company, and the board of directors of Theralink unanimously approved the Merger Agreement.

At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of Theralink's common stock ("Theralink Common Stock") and each share of Theralink's preferred stock (together with the Theralink Common Stock, "Theralink Shares") issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and will thereafter represent the right to receive a portion of a share of the Company's common stock (the "Company Shares") such that the total number of Company Shares issued to the holders of Theralink Shares shall equal 85% of the total number of Company Shares outstanding as of the Effective Time (the "Merger Consideration").

3

At the Effective Time, each award of Theralink stock options (each, a "Theralink Stock Option"), whether or not then vested or exercisable, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be assumed by the Company and converted into a stock option relating to a number of Company Shares equal to the product of: (i) the number of shares of Theralink Common Stock subject to such Theralink Stock Option; and (ii) the ratio which results from dividing one share of Theralink Common Stock by the portion of a Company Share issuable for such share as finally determined at the Effective Time (the "Exchange Ratio"), at an exercise price per Company Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Theralink Common Stock of such Theralink Stock Option by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The Company and Theralink have each agreed, subject to certain exceptions with respect to unsolicited proposals, not to directly or indirectly solicit competing acquisition proposals or to enter into discussions concerning, or provide confidential information in connection with, any unsolicited alternative acquisition proposals. However, if such party receives an unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal that did not result from a material breach of the non-solicitation provisions of the Merger Agreement and the Company's or Theralink's board of directors, or any committee thereof, as applicable, concludes, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a superior offer, such party may furnish non-public information regarding it or any of its subsidiaries and engage in discussions and negotiations with such third party in response to such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal; provided that each party provides notice and furnishes any non-public information provided to the maker of the acquisition proposal to each party substantially concurrently with providing such non-public information to the maker of the acquisition proposal.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including: (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement by holders of a majority of the outstanding Theralink Shares; (ii) approval of the issuance of Company Shares in connection with the Merger by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock; (iii) absence of any court order or regulatory injunction prohibiting completion of the Merger; (iv) expiration or termination of (a) all waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act") and (b) any agreement with any governmental entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (v) effectiveness of the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 to register the Company Shares to be issued in the Merger; (vi) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party; (vii) the authorization for listing of Company Shares to be issued in the Merger on Nasdaq; (viii) compliance by the other party in all material respects with its covenants; and (ix) the completion of satisfactory due diligence by both parties.

The Company and Theralink have each made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including covenants and agreements relating to (i) the conduct of each of the Company's and Theralink's business between the date of the signing of the Merger Agreement and the closing date of the Merger and (ii) the efforts of the parties to cause the Merger to be completed, including actions which may be necessary to cause the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under the HSR Act.

In furtherance of the proposed business combination with Theralink, on April 12, 2024 we entered into a credit agreement, secured by the assets of Theralink and its subsidiaries, pursuant to which Theralink may borrow from the Company up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 with an initial borrowing of $350,000. While we remain committed to acquiring the business of Theralink, we continue to evaluate all options with respect to the structuring of the business combination, including the Merger. We cannot give any assurance that the business combination will be consummated in accordance with the previously disclosed terms, as opposed to other alternative structures. See Note 14 - Subsequent Events.

On April 10, 2024, we entered into a series of transactions including the exchange of the Company's outstanding Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series B-1 Preferred Stock") and Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Series B-2 Preferred Stock" and, collectively with the Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the "Series B Preferred Stock"), for new preferred stock, the exchange of the Company's outstanding warrants (the "Existing Warrants") for new warrants, and the sale of new preferred stock and warrants. All such transactions were consummated on April 11, 2024 and resulted in gross proceeds to the Company of $900,000. See Note 14 - Subsequent Events.

Our Operations

As of December 31, 2023, we had closed or sold our outpatient medical clinics and BackSpace locations. Given the Company's financial position, during 2023, the Company decided to close its underperforming locations and sold The BackSpace, LLC operations and physical assets of certain locations in an effort to raise sufficient capital to support on-going operations. Management has been actively exploring various strategic alternatives since July 2022.

Below is a description of each of our outpatient medical clinics as of December 31, 2023 along with each location's current status:

Kentucky Market

In November 2015, we relocated our Paducah, Kentucky operations into a 10,200 square foot build-to-suit facility. This facility serves as an anchor clinic for the western Kentucky market of roughly 50,000 residents. The clinic performs medical evaluations with x-ray, fluoroscopic spine, joint and appendage injections, regenerative medicine and physical medicine.

Our Services (prior to dispositions)

The licensed healthcare professionals at our clinics work with each patient to create a protocol customized for each patient by utilizing a combination of the following traditional and innovative treatments:

Medical Treatments. Our specialized team of doctors work together to provide the latest minimally invasive, prescription-free treatments for movement challenges or pain related to orthopedic conditions. The treatments are customized to treat the underlying condition instead of addressing the challenge with prescriptions or surgeries.

Regenerative Medicine. Regenerative therapy at IMAC Regeneration Centers utilizes undifferentiated cellular tissue to regenerate damaged tissue. The majority of our procedures utilize cells from the patient, harvested under minimal manipulation, and applied during the same visit to the clinic. These autologous cells help to heal degenerative soft tissue conditions, which cause pain or compromise the patient's quality of life. Platelet therapies comprise the greatest percentage of regenerative procedures. Independent studies in this area, including a recent safety and feasibility study published by Dr. Peter B. Fodor, "Adipose Derived Stromal Cell Injections for Pain Management of Osteoarthritis in the Human Knee Joint" (Aesthetic Surgery Journal, February 2016), have supported claims that autologous cell treatments using adipose and bone marrow lead to improved function and decreased pain within joints, muscles and connective tissue and can help alleviate osteoarthritis and degenerative disease. We believe that we have followed the increasingly accepted protocols described in this and other similar studies in connection with our regenerative therapies.

Physical Medicine. Our team of medical practitioners start by collaboratively building a personalized physical medicine treatment plan designed to help patients get back to living the life they deserve.

Physical Therapy. With a combination of biomechanical loading and tissue mobilization, our licensed physical rehabilitation therapists work with each patient to help the body restore skill within the joint or soft tissue.

Spinal Decompression. During this treatment, the spine is stretched and relaxed intermittently in a controlled manner, creating a negative pressure in the disc area that can pull herniated or bulging tissue back into the disc. Whether caused by trauma or degeneration, we realize the impact a spinal injury can have on the quality of one's life and are committed to providing the most innovative, minimally invasive medical technology and care to relieve back pain and restore function.

8

Chiropractic Manipulation. Common for spine conditions, manual manipulation is used to increase range of motion, reduce nerve irritability and improve function.

FDA Clinical Trial

In November 2017, we engaged a medical consulting group to advise us on current regenerative medicine therapy protocols and to organize a clinical trial towards an investigational new drug application (IND) with the FDA, while pursuing a voluntary Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation. This process is defined under Section 3033 of the 21st Century Cures Act. We intend to conduct an investigator-initiated trial utilizing regenerative advancements to alleviate symptoms of debilitating, neurological conditions and diseases. Stem cell therapy is emerging as a potentially revolutionary new way to treat disease and injury, with wide-ranging medical benefits. It aims to repair damaged and diseased body parts with Healthy new cells provided by stem cell transplants.

The medical consulting group has assisted us in conducting research, establishing patient engagement tools and developing clinical strategies to achieve the IND and RMAT. We executed a technology transfer agreement with a research university to license an FDA Phase I approved mesenchymal stem cell drug candidate. We submitted an IND application with the FDA using this therapeutic product in May 2020, and the FDA Office of Tissues and Advanced Therapies authorized the Phase I clinical trial in August 2020. IMAC physicians were trained to administer treatments within IMAC facilities and the FDA approved opening enrollment for the trial in November 2020. The first enrollee was treated in December 2020, utilizing umbilical cord-derived allogenic mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of bradykinesia due to Parkinson's disease. The Phase 1 clinical trial consists of a 15-patient dose escalation safety and tolerability study. The trial is divided into three groups: (1) five patients with bradykinesia due to Parkinson's disease received a low intravenous dose, (2) five patients received a medium intravenous dose, (3) and five patients received a high intravenous dose. Each trial participant received an intravenous infusion of stem cells and will be tracked for 12 months for data collection. The final patient was dosed on September 6, 2022.

No assurance can be given that the FDA will approve advancement beyond a Phase I study or the RMAT designation. We believe the RMAT designation may be helpful in differentiating our services and gaining a broader collaborative connection with the FDA. Failure to earn the RMAT designation will result in unfulfilled research expenses, but should not have a materially adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.

Protection of Proprietary Information

We own various U.S. federal trademark registrations and applications, and unregistered trademarks, including the registered mark "IMAC Regeneration Center." We rely on trademark laws in the United States, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to protect our proprietary information and brand. We cannot assure you that existing trademark laws or contractual rights will be adequate for protecting our intellectual property and proprietary information. Protection of confidential information, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights in the markets in which we operate and compete is highly uncertain and may involve complex legal questions. We cannot completely prevent the unauthorized use or infringement of our confidential information or intellectual property rights as such prevention is inherently difficult. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of our confidential information and intellectual property protection.

We are not aware of any claims of infringement or other challenges to our rights in our trademarks. We do not expect to need any additional intellectual property rights to carry out our growth and expansion strategy.

For years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we did not incur any material time or labor for the development of the technology we use in our operations.

Government Regulation

Numerous federal, state and local regulations regulate healthcare services and those who provide them. Some states into which we may expand have laws requiring facilities employing health professionals and providing health-related services to be licensed and, in some cases, to obtain a certificate of need (that is, demonstrating to a state regulatory authority the need for, and financial feasibility of, new facilities or the commencement of new healthcare services). None of the states in which we currently operate require a certificate of need for the operation of our physical therapy business functions. Our healthcare professionals and/or medical clinics, however, are required to be licensed, as determined by the state in which they provide services. Failure to obtain or maintain any required certificates, approvals or licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Regulations Controlling Fraud and Abuse. Various federal and state laws regulate financial relationships involving providers of healthcare services. These laws include Section 1128B(b) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S. C. § 1320a-7b(b)) (the "Fraud and Abuse Law"), under which civil and criminal penalties can be imposed upon persons who, among other things, offer, solicit, pay or receive remuneration in return for (i) the referral of patients for the rendering of any item or service for which payment may be made, in whole or in part, by a Federal health care program (including Medicare and Medicaid); or (ii) purchasing, leasing, ordering, or arranging for or recommending purchasing, leasing, ordering any good, facility, service, or item for which payment may be made, in whole or in part, by a Federal health care program (including Medicare and Medicaid). We believe that our business procedures and business arrangements are in compliance with these provisions. However, the provisions are broadly written and the full extent of their specific application to specific facts and arrangements to which we are a party is uncertain and difficult to predict. In addition, several states have enacted state laws similar to the Fraud and Abuse Law, which may be more restrictive than the federal Fraud and Abuse Law.

Stark Law. Provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 (42 U.S.C. §1395nn) (the "Stark Law") prohibit referrals by a physician of "designated health services" which are payable, in whole or in part, by Medicare or Medicaid, to an entity in which the physician or the physician's immediate family member has an investment interest or other financial relationship, subject to several exceptions. Unlike the Fraud and Abuse Law, the Stark Law is a strict liability statute. Proof of intent to violate the Stark Law is not required. Physical therapy services are among the "designated health services." Further, the Stark Law has application to our management contracts with individual physicians and physician groups, as well as, any other financial relationship between us and referring physicians, including medical advisor arrangements and any financial transaction resulting from a clinic acquisition. The Stark Law also prohibits billing for services rendered pursuant to a prohibited referral. Several states have enacted laws similar to the Stark Law. These state laws may cover all (not just Medicare and Medicaid) patients. As with the Fraud and Abuse Law, we consider the Stark Law in planning our outpatient clinics, establishing contractual and other arrangements with physicians, marketing and other activities, and believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with the Stark Law. If we violate the Stark Law or any similar state laws, our financial results and operations could be adversely affected. Penalties for violations include denial of payment for the services, significant civil monetary penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

HIPAA. In an effort to further combat healthcare fraud and protect patient confidentially, Congress included several anti-fraud measures in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA"). HIPAA created a source of funding for fraud control to coordinate federal, state and local healthcare law enforcement programs, conduct investigations, provide guidance to the healthcare industry concerning fraudulent healthcare practices, and establish a national data bank to receive and report final adverse actions. HIPAA also criminalized certain forms of health fraud against all public and private payers. Additionally, HIPAA mandates the adoption of standards regarding the exchange of healthcare information in an effort to ensure the privacy and electronic security of patient information and standards relating to the privacy of health information. Sanctions for failing to comply with HIPAA include criminal penalties and civil sanctions. In February of 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 ("ARRA") was signed into law. Title XIII of ARRA, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act ("HITECH"), provided for substantial Medicare and Medicaid incentives for providers to adopt electronic health records ("EHRs") and grants for the development of health information exchange ("HIE"). Recognizing that HIE and EHR systems will not be implemented unless the public can be assured that the privacy and security of patient information in such systems is protected, HITECH also significantly expanded the scope of the privacy and security requirements under HIPAA. Most notable are the mandatory breach notification requirements and a heightened enforcement scheme that includes increased penalties, and which now apply to business associates as well as to covered entities. In addition to HIPAA, a number of states have adopted laws and/or regulations applicable in the use and disclosure of individually identifiable health information that can be more stringent than comparable provisions under HIPAA.

11

We believe that our operations comply with applicable standards for privacy and security of protected healthcare information. We cannot predict what negative effect, if any, HIPAA/HITECH or any applicable state law or regulation will have on our business.

Cybersecurity. We are a medical provider and comply with HIPAA and data sensitivity requirements as regulated by local and federal authorities. Our patient data is hosted, managed and secured with an approved Electronic Medical Record vendor. Cybersecurity is of paramount importance and our executive officers have implemented routine cyber breach insurance policies to protect our company from potential predatory initiatives to access patient and company data. See "Risk Factors - Our reputation and relationships with patients would be harmed if our patients' data, particularly personally identifying data, were to be subject to a cyber-attack or otherwise by unauthorized persons."

FDA Drug Approval Process

In the United States, pharmaceutical products are subject to extensive regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"). The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act ("FDC Act") and other federal and state statutes and regulations, govern, among other things, the research, development, testing, manufacture, storage, recordkeeping, approval, labeling, promotion and marketing, distribution, post-approval monitoring and reporting, sampling and import and export of pharmaceutical products. Failure to comply with applicable U.S. requirements may subject a company to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctions, such as FDA refusal to approve pending new drug applications ("NDAs"), warning or untitled letters, product recalls, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, civil penalties and criminal prosecution. As a result of these regulations, pharmaceutical product development and approval are very expensive and time consuming.

Pharmaceutical product development for a new product or certain changes to an approved product in the United States typically involves preclinical laboratory and animal tests, the submission to the FDA of an investigational new drug ("IND"), which must become effective before clinical testing may commence, and adequate and well-controlled clinical trials to establish the safety and effectiveness of the drug for each indication for which FDA approval is sought. Satisfaction of FDA pre-market approval requirements typically takes many years and the actual time required may vary substantially based upon the type, complexity and novelty of the product or disease.

12

Clinical trials to support NDAs for marketing approval are typically conducted in three sequential phases, but the phases may overlap. In Phase 1, the initial introduction of the drug into healthy human subjects or patients, the drug is tested to assess pharmacological actions, side effects associated with increasing doses and, if possible, early evidence on effectiveness. For dermatology products, Phase 2 usually involves trials in a limited patient population to determine metabolism, pharmacokinetics, the effectiveness of the drug for a particular indication, dosage tolerance and optimum dosage, and to identify common adverse effects and safety risks. If a compound demonstrates evidence of effectiveness and an acceptable safety profile in Phase 2 evaluations, Phase 3 clinical trials are undertaken to obtain the additional information about clinical efficacy and safety in a larger number of patients, typically at geographically dispersed clinical trial sites, to permit the FDA to evaluate the overall benefit-risk relationship of the drug and to provide adequate information for the labeling of the drug. In most cases the FDA requires two adequate and well-controlled Phase 3 clinical trials with statistically significant results to demonstrate the efficacy of the drug. A single Phase 3 clinical trial with other confirmatory evidence may be sufficient in rare instances where the study is a large multicenter trial demonstrating internal consistency and a statistically very persuasive finding of an effect on mortality, irreversible morbidity or prevention of a disease with a potentially serious outcome and confirmation of the result in a second trial would be practically or ethically impossible.

After completion of the required activities, including clinical testing, a NDA is prepared and submitted to the FDA. FDA approval of the NDA is required before marketing of the product may begin in the United States.

The FDA also may refer applications for novel drug products, or drug products that present difficult questions of safety or efficacy, to an advisory committee, typically a panel that includes clinicians and other experts, for review, evaluation and a recommendation as to whether the application should be approved. The FDA is not bound by the recommendation of an advisory committee, but it generally follows such recommendations. Before approving an NDA, the FDA will typically inspect one or more clinical sites to assure compliance with the FDA's good clinical practice requirements. Additionally, the FDA typically inspects the facility or the facilities at which the drug is manufactured and may inspect the sponsor company and investigator sites that participated in the clinical trials. The FDA will not approve the product unless compliance with current good manufacturing practice ("cGMP") is satisfactory and the NDA contains data that provide substantial evidence that the drug is safe and effective for the stated indication.

After the FDA evaluates the NDA and the manufacturing facilities, it issues either an approval letter or a complete response letter. A complete response letter generally outlines the deficiencies in the submission and may require substantial additional testing, or information, in order for the FDA to reconsider the application. If, or when, those deficiencies have been addressed to the FDA's satisfaction following FDA review of a resubmission of the NDA, the FDA will issue an approval letter.

13

An approval letter authorizes commercial marketing of the drug with specific prescribing information for specific indications. As a condition of NDA approval, the FDA may require a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy ("REMS"), to help ensure that the benefits of the drug outweigh the potential risks. REMS can include medication guides, communication plans for healthcare professionals and elements to assure safe use ("ETASU"). ETASU can include, but are not limited to, special training or certification for prescribing or dispensing, dispensing only under certain circumstances, special monitoring and the use of patient registries. The requirement for a REMS can materially affect the potential market and profitability of the drug. Moreover, product approval may require substantial post-approval testing and surveillance to monitor the drug's safety or efficacy. Once granted, product approvals may be withdrawn if compliance with regulatory standards is not maintained or problems are identified following initial marketing.

Changes to some of the conditions established in an approved application, including changes in indications, labeling, or manufacturing processes or facilities, require submission and FDA approval of a new NDA or NDA supplement before the change can be implemented. An NDA supplement for a new indication typically requires clinical data similar to that in the original application, and the FDA generally uses the same procedures and actions in reviewing NDA supplements as it does in reviewing NDAs.

Section 505(b)(2) New Drug Applications

Most drug products obtain FDA marketing approval pursuant to an NDA filed under section 505(b)(1) of the FDC Act. An alternative is a special type of NDA, commonly referred to as a Section 505(b)(2) NDA ("505(b)(2) NDA"), which enables the applicant to rely, in part, on the FDA's previous approval of a similar product, or published literature, in support of its application.

505(b)(2) NDAs often provide an alternate path to FDA approval for new or improved formulations or new uses of previously approved products. Section 505(b)(2) permits the filing of an NDA where at least some of the information required for approval comes from studies not conducted by, or for, the applicant and for which the applicant has not obtained a right of reference. If the 505(b)(2) NDA applicant can establish that reliance on the FDA's previous approval is scientifically appropriate, it may eliminate the need to conduct certain preclinical or clinical studies of the new product. The FDA may also require companies to perform additional studies or measurements to support the change from the approved product. The FDA may then approve the new product candidate for all, or some, of the label indications for which the referenced product has been approved, as well as for any new indication sought by the Section 505(b)(2) NDA applicant.

14

Biologics

Biological products used for the prevention, treatment or cure of a disease or condition of a human being are subject to regulation under the FDC Act, except the section of the FDC Act which governs the approval of NDAs. Biological products are approved for marketing under provisions of the Public Health Service Act ("PHSA"), via a Biologics License Application ("BLA"). However, the application process and requirements for approval of BLAs and BLA supplements, including review timelines, are very similar to those for NDAs and NDA supplements, and biologics are associated with similar approval risks and costs as other drugs.

Post-Approval Requirements

Once a NDA is approved, a product will be subject to certain post-approval requirements. For instance, the FDA closely regulates the post-approval marketing and promotion of drugs, including standards and regulations for direct-to-consumer advertising, off-label promotion, industry-sponsored scientific and educational activities and promotional activities involving the internet. Drugs may be marketed only for the approved indications and in accordance with the provisions of the approved labeling.

Adverse event reporting and submission of periodic safety reports is required following FDA approval of a NDA. The FDA also may require post-marketing testing, known as Phase 4 testing, REMS and surveillance to monitor the effects of an approved product, or the FDA may place conditions on an approval that could restrict the distribution or use of the product. In addition, quality-control, drug manufacture, packaging and labeling procedures must continue to conform to cGMPs after approval. Drug manufacturers and certain of their subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain state agencies. Registration with the FDA subjects entities to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA, during which the agency inspects manufacturing facilities to assess compliance with cGMPs. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money and effort in the areas of production and quality-control to maintain compliance with cGMPs. Regulatory authorities may withdraw product approvals or request product recalls if a company fails to comply with regulatory standards, if it encounters problems following initial marketing, or if previously unrecognized problems are subsequently discovered.

Pediatric Information

Under the Pediatric Research Equity Act, NDAs or supplements to NDAs must contain data to assess the safety and effectiveness of the drug for the claimed indications in all relevant pediatric subpopulations and to support dosing and administration for each pediatric subpopulation for which the drug is safe and effective. The FDA may grant full or partial waivers, or deferrals, for submission of data.

The Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act ("BPCA") provides NDA holders a six-month extension of any exclusivity, patent or non-patent, for a drug if certain conditions are met. Conditions for exclusivity include the FDA's determination that information relating to the use of a new drug in the pediatric population may produce health benefits in that population, the FDA making a written request for pediatric studies and the applicant agreeing to perform, and reporting on, the requested studies within the statutory timeframe. Applications under the BPCA are treated as priority applications, with all of the benefits that designation confers.

15

Disclosure of Clinical Trial Information

Sponsors of clinical trials of FDA-regulated products, including drugs, are required to register and disclose certain clinical trial information. Information related to the product, patient population, phase of investigation, study sites and investigators and other aspects of the clinical trial is then made public as part of the registration. Sponsors are also obligated to disclose the results of their clinical trials after completion. Competitors may use this publicly available information to gain knowledge regarding the progress of our programs.

Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapies (RMAT) Designation

The FDA has established a Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy ("RMAT") designation as part of its implementation of the 21st Century Cures Act, or Cures Act. The RMAT designation program is intended to fulfill the Cures Act requirement that the FDA facilitate an efficient development program for, and expedite review of, any drug that meets the following criteria: (1) it qualifies as a RMAT, which is defined as a cell therapy, therapeutic tissue engineering product, human cell and tissue product, or any combination product using such therapies or products, with limited exceptions; (2) it is intended to treat, modify, reverse, or cure a serious or life-threatening disease or condition; and (3) preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug has the potential to address unmet medical needs for such a disease or condition. Like breakthrough therapy designation, RMAT designation provides potential benefits that include more frequent meetings with FDA to discuss the development plan for the product candidate, and eligibility for rolling review and priority review. Products granted RMAT designation may also be eligible for accelerated approval on the basis of a surrogate or intermediate endpoint reasonably likely to predict long-term clinical benefit, or reliance upon data obtained from a meaningful number of sites, including through expansion to additional sites. RMAT-designated products that receive accelerated approval may, as appropriate, fulfill their post-approval requirements through the submission of clinical evidence, clinical studies, patient registries, or other sources of real world evidence (such as electronic health records); through the collection of larger confirmatory data sets; or via post-approval monitoring of all patients treated with such therapy prior to approval of the therapy.

Other Regulatory Factors. Political, economic and regulatory influences are fundamentally changing the healthcare industry in the United States. Congress, state legislatures and the private sector continue to review and assess alternative healthcare delivery and payment systems. Potential alternative approaches could include mandated basic healthcare benefits, controls on healthcare spending through limitations on the growth of private health insurance premiums and Medicare and Medicaid spending, the creation of large insurance purchasing groups, and price controls. Legislative debate is expected to continue in the future and market forces are expected to demand only modest increases or reduced costs. For instance, managed care entities are demanding lower reimbursement rates from healthcare providers and, in some cases, are requiring or encouraging providers to accept capitated payments that may not allow providers to cover their full costs or realize traditional levels of profitability. We cannot reasonably predict what impact the adoption of federal or state healthcare reform measures or future private sector reform may have on our business.

16

In recent years, federal and state governments have launched several initiatives aimed at uncovering behavior that violates the federal civil and criminal laws regarding false claims and fraudulent billing and coding practices. Such laws require providers to adhere to complex reimbursement requirements regarding proper billing and coding in order to be compensated for their services by government payers. Our compliance program requires adherence to applicable law and promotes reimbursement education and training; however, a determination that our clinics' billing and coding practices are false or fraudulent could have a material adverse effect on us.

As a result of our participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, we are subject to various governmental inspections, reviews, audits and investigations to verify our compliance with these programs and applicable laws and regulations. Managed care payers may also reserve the right to conduct audits. An adverse inspection, review, audit or investigation could result in refunding amounts we have been paid; fines penalties and/or revocation of billing privileges for the affected clinics; exclusion from participation in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or one or more managed care payer network; or damage to our reputation.

We and our outpatient medical clinics are subject to federal and state laws prohibiting entities and individuals from knowingly and willfully making claims to Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental programs and third-party payers that contain false or fraudulent information. The federal False Claims Act encourages private individuals to file suits on behalf of the government against healthcare providers such as us. As such suits are generally filed under seal with a court to allow the government adequate time to investigate and determine whether it will intervene in the action, the implicated healthcare providers often are unaware of the suit until the government has made its determination and the seal is lifted. Violations or alleged violations of such laws, and any related lawsuits, could result in (i) exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs, or (ii) significant financial or criminal sanctions, resulting in the possibility of substantial financial penalties for small billing errors that are replicated in a large number of claims, as each individual claim could be deemed a separate violation. In addition, many states also have enacted similar statutes, which may include criminal penalties, substantial fines, and treble damages.

Employees and Human Capital Management

As of April 15, 2024, we employed 4 individuals, of which 2 were full-time employees. As of that date, none of our employees were governed by collective bargaining agreements or were members of a union. We consider our relations with our employees to be good. We strive for greater diversity and inclusion through our employment and management practices. Today, our full-time employees range in age from 41-62 years, 50% of our executive team is female, and 75% of our staff is female. We remain further committed to increasing the diversity of our employee base.

17

In the states in which our outpatient clinics were located, persons performing designated medical or physical therapy services are required to be licensed by the state. Based on standard employee screening systems in place, all persons currently employed by us who are required to be licensed are licensed. We are not aware of any federal licensing requirements applicable to our employees.

Medical Advisory Board

We had a Medical Advisory Board comprised of all IMAC medical physicians. The Advisory Board met annually to discuss matters relating to our therapies, range of medical treatments and strategic direction, and periodically presented its suggestions to our Board and to executive management. Members of the Advisory Board were reimbursed by us for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in serving on the Advisory Board.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the information set forth at the beginning of this Form 10-K entitled "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements," you should consider that there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our securities could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment. These risk factors may not identify all risks that we face and our operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.

Risks Relating to Our Company, Business and Industry

We recorded a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and there can be no assurance that our future operations will result in net income; we received a going concern qualification.

For the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had net revenue from discontinued operations of approximately $5,197,000 and $16,186,000, respectively, and we had net loss of approximately $9,419,000 and $18,313,000, respectively. There can be no assurance that our future operations will result in net income. Our failure to increase our revenues or improve our gross margins will harm our business. We may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If our revenues grow more slowly than we anticipate, our gross margins fail to improve or our operating expenses exceed our expectations, our operating results will suffer. The fee we charge for our management services may decrease, which would reduce our revenues and harm our business. If we are unable to sell our services at acceptable prices relative to our costs, or if we fail to develop and introduce new services on a timely basis and services from which we can derive additional revenues, our financial results will suffer.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from and net cash used in operations and has a net capital deficiency and has discontinued its operations that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Acquisition-Related Risks. As part of its growth strategy, the Company will seek to acquire or invest in complementary (including competitive) businesses, products or technologies. Although the Company has identified potential acquisition candidates, it currently has no commitments or agreements with respect to any such acquisitions or investments other than the Brain scientific Acquisition, and there can be no assurance that it will eventually consummate the Brain Scientific acquisition or any other acquisition or investment. The process of integrating acquired assets into the Company's operations may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and may absorb significant management attention that would otherwise be available for the ongoing development of the Company's business. In addition, the Company has limited experience in performing acquisitions and managing growth. There can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits of any acquisition will be realized. In addition, future acquisitions by the Company could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities and amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, any of which could materially adversely affect the Company's operating results and financial position. In addition, acquisitions also involve other risks, including risks inherent in entering markets in which the Company has no or limited prior experience and the potential loss of key employees.

20

Further, because of our small size and limited operating history, our company is particularly susceptible to adverse effects from changes in the law, economic conditions, consumer tastes, competition and other contingencies or events beyond our control. It may be more difficult for us to prepare for and respond to these types of risks than it would be for a company with an established business and operating cash flow. Due to changing circumstances or an inability to implement any portion of our growth strategy, we may be forced to dramatically change our planned operations.

We have incurred significant losses since our inception. We expect to incur losses this year and may never achieve or maintain profitability.

Our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our future success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, and changes in management may negatively affect our business.

We have a need for additional funding. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, we could be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate our development.

We may form or seek strategic alliances in the future, and we may not realize the benefits of such alliances.

We have suffered a disruption of the operation of our business as a result of the outbreak of coronavirus in the United States. Closures due to government orders or guidance and other related effects of the coronavirus pandemic may cause a material adverse effect on our business.

In March 2020, federal, state and local government authorities issued orders and guidance in order to combat the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. These actions have required or encouraged our patients to remain at home except for essential activities and may reduce patient visits to our clinics. For example, the governor of Kentucky ordered all chiropractic facilities in the state of Kentucky to close effective March 20, 2020, which caused us to close our Kentucky chiropractic facilities until such order was lifted on May 4, 2020. The full extent and duration of such actions and their impacts over the longer term remain uncertain and dependent on future developments that cannot be accurately predicted at this time, such as the severity and transmission rate of the coronavirus and the extent and effectiveness of containment actions taken.

The coronavirus pandemic appears likely to cause significant economic harm across the United States, and the negative economic conditions that may result in reduced patient demand in our industry. We may experience a material loss of patients and revenue as a result of the suspension of any operations. Initiatives to implement telehealth engagement with patients may not be adopted by existing and new patients. Patient habits may also be altered in the medium to long term. Negative economic conditions, a decrease in our revenue and consequent longer-term trends harmful to our business may all exert pressure on our company during the pendency of emergency restrictions on our operations and beyond. Due to such conditions, we terminated the employment of 11% of our employees on March 20, 2020, to reduce costs associated with non-essential personnel.

We cannot predict with certainty when public health and economic conditions will return to normal. A decline in patient visits and/or the possible suspension of operations mandated in response to the coronavirus, and the consequent loss of revenue and cash flow during this period may make it difficult for us to obtain capital necessary to fund our operations.

We may fail completely to implement key elements of our growth and expansion strategy, which could adversely affect our operations and financial performance.

If we cannot implement one or more key elements of our growth and expansion strategy, including raising sufficient capital, hiring and retaining qualified staff, leasing and developing acceptable premises for our medical clinics, securing necessary service contracts on favorable or adequate terms, generating sufficient revenue and achieving numerous other objectives, our projected financial performance may be materially adversely affected. Even if all of the key elements of our growth and expansion strategy are successfully implemented, we may not achieve the favorable results, operations and financial performance that we anticipate.

21

We may be unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, which could materially adversely affect our operations and ability to successfully implement our growth and expansion strategy.

Our growth strategy relies on obtaining sufficient financing, including one or more equipment lines to purchase medical and office equipment and one or more lines of credit for operating and related expenses. We may not be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms or in the amount anticipated by our growth and expansion strategy. If unable to secure the amount of financing anticipated by our growth and expansion strategy, we may be unable to implement one or more portions of our growth and expansion strategy. If we accept less favorable terms for our financing than anticipated, we may incur additional expenses and restrictions on operations and may be less liquid and less profitable than expected. Should either of these events occur, we could suffer material adverse effects to our ability to implement our growth and expansion strategy and operate successfully.

We may seek additional funding through a combination of equity offerings, debt financing, government or third-party funding, commercialization, marketing and distribution arrangements and other collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. Additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. In addition, the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or rights of the stockholders. Any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences, and privileges superior to those of holders of our existing capital stock. In addition, the issuance of additional shares by us, or the possibility of such issuance, may cause the market price of our shares to decline. Any debt financing secured by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matter, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and the pursue business opportunities.

If we are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may be required to significantly curtail one or more of our efforts, our ability to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited, and we could be forced to halt operations. Accordingly, our business may fail, in which case you would lose the entire amount of your investment in our common stock.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has indicated that our financial condition raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, our independent registered public accounting firm has included in its audit opinion for the year ended December 31, 2023 a statement that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of continued losses and financial condition at December 31, 2023, unless we are able to obtain additional financing or enter into strategic alliances. The reaction of investors to the inclusion of a going concern statement by our auditors, our current lack of cash resources and our potential inability to continue as a going concern may adversely affect our share price and our ability to raise new capital or enter into strategic alliances. If we become unable to obtain additional capital and to continue as a going concern, we may have to liquidate our assets and the values we receive for our assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in our financial statements.

We will manage, but will not own, certain of the medical clinics or employ the medical service providers who will treat patients at the clinics.

Several of our medical clinics will be owned exclusively by a professional service corporation in order to comply with state laws regulating the ownership of medical practices. We will, in turn, through a contractual arrangement, provide long-term, exclusive management services to those professional service corporations and their medical professionals. All employees who provide direct medical services to patients will be employed by the professional service corporation. These management services agreements protect us from certain liability and provide a structured engagement to deliver non-medical, comprehensive management and administrative services to help the medical professionals operate the business. The management services agreements authorize us to act on behalf of the professional service corporation, but do not authorize the professional service corporations to act on our behalf or enter into contracts with third parties on our behalf. We will employ the non-medical provider staff for the clinics and provide comprehensive management and administrative services to help the professional service corporation operate the clinics. We may also loan money to the professional service corporation for certain payroll and development costs, although we have no obligation to do so. This arrangement makes our financial and operational success highly dependent on the professional service corporation. Under our management service agreements, we provide exclusive comprehensive management and related administrative services to the professional service corporation and receive management fees. Due to this financial and operational control by contract, our financial statements consolidate the financial results of the professional service corporations. However, we will have little, if any, tangible assets as to those operations. These characteristics increase the risk associated with an investment in our company.

Our management services agreements may be terminated.

The management services agreements we have with several of our clinics may be terminated by mutual agreement of us and the applicable clinic, by a non-breaching party after 30 days following an uncured breach by the other party, upon a bankruptcy of either party or by us upon 90 days' prior written notice to the clinic. The termination of a management services agreement would result in the termination of payment of management fees from the applicable clinic, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

23

We do not control the delivery of medical care at any of our facilities.

We have no direct control over the medical care in any of our facilities. State medical boards govern the licensing and delivery of medical care within a state. For this reason, the medical practitioners are solely responsible for making medical decisions with their abilities and experience. We run the risk of being associated with a medical practitioner that performs poorly or does not comply with medical board legislation. When we are responsible for the recruitment or staffing of medical professionals, we may hire a professional that delivers care outside of medical protocols. Our inability to exercise control over the medical care and managed centers increases the risks associated with an investment in our company.

State medical boards may amend licensing requirements for medical service providers, service delivery oversight for midlevel practitioners, and ownership or location requirements for the delivery of medical treatments.

We have no direct control over the medical care in any of our facilities. State medical boards govern the licensing and delivery of medical care within a state. Each state medical board controls the level of licensing required for each medical practitioner and the requirements to obtain such a license to deliver medical care. Furthermore, the state medical board typically determines the required practitioner oversight for medical practitioners based on their license achieved, earned degrees and continuing education. The current requirements for these practitioners may change in the future and we run the risk of additional expenses necessary to meet the state medical board requirements. The state medical board may also determine the location in which services are delivered. We risk the loss of revenue or retrofitting expense if the state medical board amends location requirements for the delivery of certain treatments. Similarly, state medical boards may amend ownership or management requirements for the operation of medical clinics within their respective state. The board may also investigate or dispute the legal establishment of owned or managed medical clinics. We risk a material loss of ownership of or management control and subsequent fee from medical clinics that are in our possession or control.

Adverse medical outcomes are possible with conservative and minimally invasive treatments.

Medical practitioners performing services at our IMAC facilities run the risk of delivering treatments for which the patient may experience a poor outcome. This is possible with non-invasive and minimally invasive services alike, including the use of autologous treatments in which a patient's own cells are used to regenerate damaged tissues. At our IMAC Regeneration Centers, a minimally invasive treatment involves puncturing the skin with a needle or a minor incision which could lead to infection, bleeding, pain, nausea, or other similar results. Non-invasive and conservative physical medicine treatments may possibly cause soft tissue tears, contusions, heart conditions, stroke, and other physically straining conditions. The treatments or potential clinical research studies may yield further patient risks. An adverse outcome may include but not be limited to a loss of feeling, chronic pain, long-term disability, or death. We have obtained medical malpractice coverage in the event an adverse outcome occurs. However, the insurance limits may be exceeded or liability outside of the coverage may adversely impact the financial performance of the business, including any potential negative media coverage on patient volume.

24

Potential conflicts of interest exist with respect to the management services agreement that we have entered into concerning our clinics in Kentucky, and it is possible our interests and the affiliated owners of those clinics may diverge.

Our medical clinics in Kentucky are held by a professional service corporation that is owned by Matthew C. Wallis, DC, our President, a director and co-founder of our company, and Jason Brame, DC, a co-founding member of our company, in order to comply with the state's laws regulating the ownership of medical practices. The professional service corporation directs the provision of medical services to patients and employs the physicians and registered nurses at the clinics, we do not. Rather, pursuant to the terms of a long-term, exclusive management services agreement, we employ the non-medical provider staff for the clinics and provide comprehensive management and administrative services to help the professional service corporation operate the clinics. We believe that the service fees and other terms of our management services agreement are standard in the outpatient healthcare practice area. Nonetheless, the management services agreement presents the possibility of a conflict of interest in the event that issues arise with regard to the respective medical and non-medical services being provided at the clinics, including quality of care issues of which we become aware and billing and collection matters that we handle on behalf of the physician practices, where our interests may diverge from those of Drs. Wallis and Brame acting on behalf of the professional service corporation. No such issues, however, have occurred during this arrangement.

The management services agreement provides that we will have the right to control the daily operations of the medical clinics subject, in the case of practicing medicine, to the direction of Drs. Wallis and Brame acting on behalf of the professional service corporation. Our interests with respect to such direction may be at odds with those of Drs. Wallis and Brame, requiring them to recuse themselves from our decisions relating to such matters, or even from further involvement with our company.

We comply with applicable state law with respect to transactions (including business opportunities and management services agreements) involving potential conflicts. Applicable state corporate law requires that all transactions involving our company and any director or executive officer (or other entities with which they are affiliated) are subject to full disclosure and approval of the majority of the disinterested independent members of our Board of Directors, approval of the majority of our stockholders or the determination that the contract or transaction is intrinsically fair to us. More particularly, our policy is to have any related party transactions (i.e., transactions involving a director, an officer or an affiliate of our company) be approved solely by a majority of the disinterested independent directors serving on the Board of Directors.

Drs. Wallis and Brame are significant holders of our outstanding shares of common stock and we anticipate they will continue to own a significant percentage of our outstanding shares. Dr. Wallis founded our original IMAC medical clinic in Paducah, Kentucky in August 2000 and, with Jeffrey S. Ervin, our Chief Executive Officer, founded our current company in March 2015. Dr. Wallis, working with Mr. Ervin, will be substantially responsible for selecting the business direction we take, the medical clinics we open in the future and the services we may provide. The management services agreement may present Drs. Wallis and Brame with conflicts of interest.

25

The loss of the services of Jeffrey S. Ervin and Sheri F. Gardzina for any reason would materially and adversely affect our business operations and prospects.

Our financial success is dependent to a significant degree upon the efforts of Jeffrey S. Ervin, our Chief Executive Officer and Sheri F. Gardzina, our Chief Financial Officer. A voluntary or involuntary departure by Mr. Ervin and/or Mrs. Gardzina could have a materially adverse effect on our business operations if we were not able to attract a qualified replacement for him in a timely manner. We do not have a key-man life insurance policy for our benefit on the life of either Mr. Ervin or Mrs. Gardzina.

We will depend heavily on the efforts of our key personnel.

Our success depends, to a significant extent, upon the efforts and abilities of our officers and key employees. Loss or abatement of the services of any of these persons, could have a material adverse effect on us and our business, operations and financial performance.

Our success also will depend on our ability to identify, attract, hire, train and motivate highly skilled managerial personnel. Failure to attract and retain key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operation. Further, the quality, philosophy and performance of key personnel could adversely affect our operations and performance.

26

We may fail to obtain the business licenses and any other licenses necessary to operate our medical clinics, or the necessary engineering, building, occupancy and other permits to develop the premises for the clinics, which would materially adversely affect our growth and expansion strategy.

If we cannot obtain approval for business licenses or any other licenses necessary to operate our medical clinics, it could materially adversely affect our growth and expansion strategy and could result in a failure to implement our growth and expansion strategy. Failure to obtain the necessary engineering, building, occupancy and other permits from applicable governmental authorities to develop the premises for our medical clinics could also materially adversely affect our growth and expansion strategy and could result in a failure to implement our growth and expansion strategy.

We may face strong competition from other providers in our primary service areas, and increased competition from new competitors, which may hinder our ability to obtain and retain customers.

We will be in competition with other more established companies using a variety of treatments for the conditions and ailments that our services are intended to treat, including orthopedic surgeons, pain management clinics, hospital systems and outpatient surgery centers providing joint reconstruction and related surgeries. These companies may be better capitalized and have more established name recognition than us. We may face additional competition in the future if other providers enter our primary service areas. Competition from existing providers and providers that may begin competing with us in the future could materially adversely affect our operations and financial performance.

Further, the services provided by our company are relatively new and unique. We cannot be certain that our services will achieve or sustain market acceptance, or that a sufficient volume of patients in the Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri and Tennessee areas will utilize our services. We will be in competition with alternative treatment methods, including those presently existing and those that may develop in the future. As such, our growth and expansion strategy carries many unknown factors that subject us and our investors to a high degree of uncertainty and risk.

We are competing in a dynamic market with risk of technological change.

The market for medical, physical therapy and chiropractic services is characterized by frequent technological developments and innovations, new product and service introductions, and evolving industry standards. The dynamic character of these products and services will require us to effectively use leading and new technologies, develop our expertise and reputation, enhance our current service offerings and continue to improve the effectiveness, feasibility and consistency of our services. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in responding quickly, cost-effectively and sufficiently to these and other such developments.

Our success will depend largely upon general economic conditions and consumer acceptance in our primary service areas.

Our current primary service areas are located in certain geographical areas in the states of Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana and Missouri. Our operations and profitability could be adversely affected by a local economic downturn, changes in local consumer acceptance of our approach to healthcare, and discretionary spending power, and other unforeseen or unexpected changes within those areas.

27

We are required to comply with numerous government laws and regulations, which could change, increasing costs and adversely affecting our financial performance and operations.

Medical and chiropractic service providers are subject to extensive federal, state and local regulation, including but not limited to regulation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, and other government entities. We are subject to regulation by these entities as well as a variety of other laws and regulations. Compliance with such laws and regulations could require substantial capital expenditures. Such regulations may be changed from time to time, or new regulations adopted, which could result in additional or unexpected costs of compliance.

Changes to national health insurance policy and third-party insurance carrier fee schedules for traditional medical treatments could decrease patient revenue and adversely affect our financial performance and operations.

Political, economic and regulatory influences are subjecting medical and chiropractic service providers, health insurance providers and other participants in the healthcare industry in the United States to potential fundamental changes. Potential changes to nationwide health insurance policy are currently being debated. We cannot predict what impact the adoption of any federal or state healthcare reform or private sector insurance reform may have on our business.

We receive payment for the services we render to patients from their private health insurance providers and from Medicare and Medicaid. If third-party payers change the expected fee schedule (the amount paid by such payers for services rendered by us), we could experience a loss of revenue, which could adversely affect financial performance.

At the present time, most private health insurance providers do not cover the regenerative medical treatments provided at our medical clinics. However, traditional physical medical treatments provided at our medical clinics, such as physical therapy, chiropractic services and medical evaluations, are covered by most health insurance providers. Medicare and Medicaid take the same position as private insurers and reimburse patients for traditional physical medical treatments but not for regenerative medical treatments. If private health insurance providers and Medicare and Medicaid were to begin covering regenerative medical treatments, the revenue we would receive on a per-treatment basis would likely decline given their tighter fee schedules. Further, such a change might result in increased competition as additional healthcare providers begin offering our customized services.

We could be adversely affected by changes relating to the IMAC Regeneration Center brand name.

We are a holding company in which our medical clinics are formed in separate subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries are currently operating in Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana and Missouri. As a consequence of this entity structure, any adverse change to the brand, reputation, financial performance or other aspects of the IMAC Regeneration Center brand at any one location could adversely affect the operations and financial performance of the entire company.

28

We may incur losses that are not covered by insurance.

We maintain insurance policies against professional liability, general commercial liability and other potential losses of our company. All of the regenerative, medical, physical therapy and chiropractic treatments performed at our clinics are covered by our malpractice insurance; however, there is an upper limit to the payout allowable in the event of our malpractice. Poor patient outcomes for healthcare providers may result in legal actions and/or settlements outside of the scope of our malpractice insurance coverage. Regenerative medicine represents approximately 2% of our patient visits and 9% of our discontinued revenue. Future innovations in regenerative medicine may require review or approval of such innovations by governmental regulators. During formal research studies performed in collaboration with regulators, we may be required to obtain new insurance policies and there is no assurance that insurance policy underwriters will provide coverage for such research initiatives. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, our financial performance and operation could suffer material adverse effects.

We are susceptible to risks relating to investigation or audit by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS"), health insurance providers and the IRS.

We may be audited by CMS or any health insurance provider that pays us for services provided to patients. Any such audit may result in reclaimed payments, which would decrease our revenue and adversely affect our financial performance. Our federal tax returns may be audited by the IRS and our state tax returns may be audited by applicable state government authorities. Any such audit may result in the challenge and disallowance of some of our deductions or an increase in our taxable income. No assurance can be made with regard to the deductibility of certain tax items or the position taken by us on our tax returns. Further, an audit or any litigation resulting from an audit could unexpectedly increase our expenses and adversely affect financial performance and operations.

We are subject to the possible repayment of a claimed CMS overpayment, but we cannot predict the outcome.

On April 15, 2021, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $2,921,868. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of $11,530 of charges from a sample of 40 claims for the periods February 2017 to November 2020. On June 3, 2021, the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $2,918,472. The Company began its own internal audit process and initiated the appropriate appeals. The Company received a notification dated September 30, 2021, from CMS that they "found the request to be favorable by reversing the extrapolation to actual". The Company received a separate notification stating "the extrapolated overpayment was reduced to the actual overpayment amount for the sampled denied claims $5,327.73," which had been paid as of December 31, 2021.

On October 21, 2021, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $2,716,056.33. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of $6,791.33 of charges from a sample of 38 claims for the periods July 2017 to November 2020 for Progressive Health & Rehabilitation, Ltd ("Progressive Health"). The Company entered into a management agreement with Progressive Health in April 2019 and therefore liable for only a portion of the sampled claims. There were a total of 38 claims reviewed, 25 of these claims were from the period prior to the management agreement with the Company and the remaining 13 claims were related to the period that Progressive Health was managed by the Company. In December 2021, the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $2,709,265. The Company has begun its own internal audit process and has initiated the appropriate appeals. The Company submitted a redetermination request in March 2022, which was denied. The Company submitted a reconsideration request February 27, 2023. On July 5, 2023, the Company received a reconsideration decision from the second appeal. The Qualified Independent Contractor provided a "partially favorable" decision that medical necessity supported 15 of 38 appealed claims. The Company filed a timely appeal and a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge was conducted November 29, 2023. The ALJ decision received on February 7, 2024, failed to address appeal and partially favorable decision impact on the extrapolated charges. The Company timely filed an appeal to Medicare Appeals Council on April 5, 2024.

On May 17, 2022, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $492,086.22 related to Advantage Therapy. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of charges from a sample, the actual amount found to be overpaid was $10,420.22. On May 27, 2022 the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $481,666.00. The Company has begun its own internal audit process and has initiated the appropriate appeals. Prior to this May 2022 notification, CMS had implemented a pre-payment audit for Advantage Therapy. As of June 30, 2023, this audit had resulted in a recoupment balance of approximately $0.1 million of Medicare accounts receivable. The Company submitted a reconsideration request in May 2023. On August 4, 2023, the Company received a reconsideration decision from the second appeal. The Qualified Independent Contractor provided a "partially favorable" decision supporting 31 of 65 appealed claims. The Company filed a timely appeal and conducted a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge February 20, 2024 and awaits the response from the hearing. As of December 31, 2023, this audit had resulted in a recoupment balance of approximately $138,000 of Medicare accounts receivable which has been fully reserved.

On December 9, 2022, the Company received a suspension of payment notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services contractor, for IMAC Regeneration Center of Kentucky. On December 22, 2022, the Company responded to the payment suspension with a Rebuttal of Notice. The suspension of payment will remain in effect until the Rebuttal of Notice is answered. The Company provided medical records for 10 beneficiaries. Neither CMS nor Covent Bridge has responded to the Company regarding the records, although they initiated the Kepro audit noted in the following paragraph. As of December 31, 2023, the payment suspension resulted in a recoupment balance of approximately $90,000 of Medicare accounts receivable which has been fully reserved.

On October 2, 2023 the Company received notice from Kepro, "Initial Sanction Notice of Failure in a Substantial Number of Cases". Kepro has recommended a Corrective Action Plan (CAP). (i) Perform a root cause analysis (RCA) and describe the underlying cause of the failure. Submit a copy of the RCA performed. (ii) Identify goals (desired outcomes) of the CAP. These goals must be measurable-containing a numerator and denominator-attainable, and meaningful. (iii) Explain how the process(es) will be created or modified to correct the underlying root cause. (iv) Explain how the process(es) will be implemented, including time frames for implementation. (v) Explain how the implemented process(es) and outcomes will be monitored and reported. (vi) Identify the person who will be responsible for monitoring the CAP's specified time frame. The Company intends on complying with the recommendations of the CAP. In addition, after further review, the Company will appeal the recommendation and outcomes of the audit by Kepro. A meeting with Kepro was conducted on November 20, 2023 to review findings, CAP, and appeal of findings. The meeting resulted in a CAP and communication to medical providers regarding the audit. There is no financial recoupment request.

Other smaller denials the Company is appealing aggregate approximately $25,000 as of December 31, 2023.

The Food and Drug administration has pursued bad actors in the regenerative medicine therapy industry, and we could be included in any broad investigation.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has pursued bad actors in the regenerative medicine therapy industry. Since we provide regenerative medicine treatments, we may be subject to broad investigations from the FDA or state medical boards regarding the marketing and medical delivery of our treatments. In November 2017, we engaged a medical consulting group to advise us on current protocols in this area and to organize a clinical trial towards an investigational new drug application with the FDA, while pursuing a voluntary regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) designation under Section 3033 of the 21st Century Cures Act.

29

We depend on enrollment of patients in our clinical trials for our product candidates. If we experience delays or difficulties enrolling in our clinical trials, our research and development efforts and business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Successful and timely completion of the clinical trial will require that we enroll a sufficient number of patient candidates. This trial and other trials we may conduct may be subject to delays for a variety of reasons, including as a result of patient enrollment taking longer than anticipated, patient withdrawal or adverse events. These types of developments could cause us to delay the trial or halt further development.

Our clinical trial will compete with other clinical trials that are in the same therapeutic areas as our product candidates, and this competition reduces the number and types of patients available to us, as some patients who might have opted to enroll in our trials may instead opt to enroll in a trial being conducted by one of our competitors. In addition, there may be limited patient pools from which to draw for clinical studies. In addition to the rarity of some diseases, the eligibility criteria of our clinical studies will further limit the pool of available study participants as we will require that patients have specific characteristics that we can measure or to assure their disease is either severe enough or not too advanced to include them in a study. Patient enrollment depends on many factors, including:

the size and nature of the patient population;
the severity of the disease under investigation;
eligibility criteria for the trial;
the proximity of patients to clinical sites;
the design of the clinical protocol;
the ability to obtain and maintain patient consents;
the ability to recruit clinical trial investigators with the appropriate competencies and experience;
the risk that patients enrolled in clinical trials will drop out of the trials before the administration of our product candidates or trial completion;
the availability of competing clinical trials;
the availability of new drugs approved for the indication the clinical trial is investigating; and
clinicians' and patients' perceptions as to the potential advantages of the drug being studied in relation to other available therapies.

These factors may make it difficult for us to enroll enough patients to complete our clinical trial in a timely and cost-effective manner. In addition, our clinical trial has experienced, and continues to experience, some delays in patient enrollment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as some clinical sites in high impact areas have delayed new patient enrollment as dictated by local conditions. Such delays have impacted and could further adversely affect the expected timelines for our product development and approval process and may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Delays in the completion of any clinical trial increases our costs.

30

We rely on Contract Research Organizations ("CROs") to conduct our preclinical studies and clinical trials. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or meet expected deadlines, we may be delayed in completing this phase of the clinical trial.

We have relied and will continue to rely on CROs for the execution of our preclinical and clinical studies and monitor and manage data for our clinical programs. We control only certain aspects of our CROs' activities, but we are responsible for ensuring that each of our studies is conducted in accordance with the applicable protocol and legal, regulatory and scientific standards. Our reliance on the CROs does not relieve us of these regulatory responsibilities. We and our CROs are required to comply with the FDA's regulations, which are regulations and guidelines enforced by the FDA and comparable regulatory authorities meant to protect the rights and health of clinical trial subjects. The FDA and comparable regulatory authorities enforce their regulations through periodic inspections of trial sponsors, principal investigators and clinical trial sites. If we or our CROs fail to comply with applicable good clinical practices ("GCPs"), the clinical data generated in our clinical trials may be deemed unreliable, and the FDA (or similar foreign authorities) may require us to perform additional clinical trials before approving our product candidates. We cannot assure you that, upon inspection, the FDA (or similar foreign authorities) will determine that any of our clinical trials comply with GCPs.

In addition, our CROs are not our employees, and we cannot control whether or not they devote sufficient time and resources to our non-clinical, preclinical or clinical programs. Our CROs may also have relationships with other commercial entities, including our competitors, for whom they may also be conducting clinical studies or other drug development activities, which could impede their ability to devote appropriate time to our clinical programs. If our CROs do not successfully carry out their contractual duties or obligations or meet expected deadlines, if they need to be replaced, or if the quality or accuracy of the clinical data they obtain is compromised due to the failure to adhere to our clinical protocols or regulatory requirements, or for other reasons, our clinical trials may be extended, delayed or terminated. As a result, our financial results and the commercial prospects for the clinical trial would be harmed, our costs could increase and our ability to generate revenues could be delayed or ended.

If any of our relationships with these CROs change or terminate, we may not be able to enter into arrangements with alternative CROs or clinical study management organizations, or be able to do so on commercially reasonable terms. Switching or adding additional CROs or other clinical study management organizations involves additional cost and requires management time and focus. In addition, there is a natural transition period when a new CRO or clinical study management organization commences work. As a result, delays could occur, which could compromise our ability to meet our desired development timelines.

We have no experience as a company in bringing a drug to regulatory approval.

As a company, we have never obtained regulatory approval for, or commercialized, a drug or biologic. It is possible that the FDA may refuse to accept any or all of our planned BLAs for substantive review or may conclude after review of our data that our application is insufficient to obtain regulatory approval of any product candidate. If the FDA does not accept or approve any or all of our planned BLAs, it may require that we conduct additional preclinical, clinical or manufacturing validation studies, which may be costly, and submit that data before it will reconsider our applications. Depending on the extent of these or any other FDA required studies, approval of any BLA or application that we submit may be significantly delayed, possibly for several years, or may require us to expend more resources than we have available.

31

We may be subject, directly or indirectly, to foreign, federal and state healthcare laws, including applicable anti-kickback, fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations, which could expose us to criminal sanctions, civil penalties, contractual damages, reputational harm and diminished profits and future earnings.

Healthcare providers, physicians and third-party payors play a primary role in the recommendation and prescription of any product candidates for which we obtain marketing approval. Our business operations and current and future arrangements with third-party payors, healthcare providers and customers may expose us to broadly applicable fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations that may constrain the business or financial arrangements and relationships through which we research, develop, market, sell and distribute our products for which we obtain marketing approval. Restrictions under applicable federal and state healthcare laws and regulations include the following:

the federal healthcare Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, persons from knowingly and willfully soliciting, offering, receiving or providing remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce or reward either the referral of an individual for, or the purchase, order or recommendation of, any good or service, for which payment may be made under federal and state healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. A person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation;
the federal False Claims Act imposes criminal and civil penalties, including through civil whistleblower or qui tam actions, against individuals or entities for knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, to the federal government, claims for payment that are false or fraudulent or making a false statement to avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government. In addition, the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the False Claims Act;
HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, imposes criminal and civil liability for executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program;
the federal false statements statute prohibits knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services. Similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it to have committed a violation;
the federal transparency requirements under the ACA requires certain manufacturers of drugs, devices, biologics and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (with certain exceptions) to report to the Department of Health and Human Services information related to physician payments and other transfers of value and ownership and investment interests held by physicians (defined to include doctors, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and chiropractors), certain non-physician practitioners (physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, certified nurse anesthetists, anesthesiologist assistants and certified nurse midwives), and their immediate family members and payments or other transfers of value made to such physician owners;
analogous state laws and regulations, such as state anti-kickback and false claims laws, and transparency laws, may apply to sales or marketing arrangements and claims involving healthcare items or services reimbursed by non-governmental third-party payors, including private insurers, and some state laws require pharmaceutical companies to comply with the pharmaceutical industry's voluntary compliance guidelines and the relevant compliance guidance promulgated by the federal government in addition to requiring drug manufacturers to report information related to payments to physicians and other health care providers or marketing expenditures and pricing information; and
efforts to ensure that our business arrangements with third parties will comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations will involve substantial costs. It is possible that governmental authorities will conclude that our business practices may not comply with current or future statutes, regulations or case law involving applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. If our operations are found to be in violation of any of these laws or any other governmental regulations that may apply to us, we may be subject to significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from government funded healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, additional reporting obligations and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or other agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws, imprisonment and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations. Further, defending against any such actions, even if successful, can be costly, time-consuming and may require significant personnel resources. If any of the physicians or other providers or entities with whom we expect to do business are found to be not in compliance with applicable laws, they may be subject to criminal, civil or administrative sanctions, including exclusions from government funded healthcare programs.

Any significant disruption in our computer systems or those of third parties that we utilize in our operations could result in a loss or degradation of service and could adversely impact our business.

Our reputation and ability to attract, retain and serve our patients and users is dependent upon the reliable performance of our computer systems and those of third parties that we utilize in our operations. These systems may be subject to damage or interruption from earthquakes, adverse weather conditions, other natural disasters, terrorist attacks, power loss, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, computer denial of service attacks or other attempts to harm these systems. Interruptions in these systems, or to the internet in general, could make our service unavailable or impair our ability to deliver content to our customers. Service interruptions, errors in our software or the unavailability of computer systems used in our operations could diminish the overall attractiveness of our services to existing and potential patients. In addition, during the second half of 2019, we began the implementation of an updated medical and financial platform in our clinics.

Our servers and those of third parties we use in our operations are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions and periodically experience directed attacks intended to lead to interruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss, misuse or theft of data. Any attempt by hackers to disrupt our service or otherwise access our systems, if successful, could harm our business, be expensive to remedy and damage our reputation. We have implemented certain systems and processes to thwart hackers and, to date, hackers have not had a material impact on our service or systems. However, this is no assurance that hackers may not be successful in the future. Efforts to prevent hackers from disrupting our service or otherwise accessing our systems are expensive to implement and may limit the functionality of or otherwise negatively impact our service offering and systems. Any significant disruption to our service or access to our systems could result in a loss of patients and adversely affect our business and results of operation.

We utilize our own communications and computer hardware systems located either in our facilities or in that of a third-party data center. In addition, we utilize third-party internet-based or "cloud" computing services in connection with our business operations. We also utilize third-party content delivery networks to help us stream content to our patients and other parties over the internet. Problems faced by us or our service providers, including technological or business-related disruptions, could adversely impact the experience of our audiences and users.

During the normal course of business, we may choose to pursue services with a different third-party vendor or pursue a change in systems which could result in interruptions and delays in our service and operations as well as loss, misuse, or theft of data. We have implemented systems and processes to mitigate these risks and, to date, have not experienced a material impact on our services or systems due to change in systems or third-party. However, this is no assurance that a change in systems or services used by us or a change in third-party vendors may not have a material impact in the future. Any significant disruption to our service or access to our systems could result in a loss of patients and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our reputation and relationships with patients would be harmed if our patients' data, particularly personally identifying data, were to be subject to a cyber-attack or otherwise accessed by unauthorized persons.

We maintain personal data regarding our patients, including their names and other information. With respect to personally identifying data, we rely on licensed encryption and authentication technology to secure such information. We also take measures to protect against unauthorized intrusion into our patients' data. Despite these measures, we could experience, though we have not to date experienced, a cyber-attack or other unauthorized intrusion into our patients' data. Our security measures could also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, system errors or vulnerabilities, or otherwise. In the event our security measures are breached, or if our services are subject to attacks that impair or deny the ability of patients to access our services, current and potential patients may become unwilling to provide us the information necessary for them to become users of our services or may curtail or stop using our services. In addition, we could face legal claims for such a breach. The costs relating to any data breach could be material and exceed the limits of the insurance we maintain against the risks of a data breach. For these reasons, should an unauthorized intrusion into our patients' data occur, our business could be adversely affected. Changes to operating rules could increase our operating expenses and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

33

Changes in accounting principles or guidance, or in their interpretations, could result in unfavorable accounting charges or effects, including changes to our previously filed consolidated financial statements, which could cause our stock price to decline.

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles are subject to interpretation by the SEC and various bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting principles and guidance. A change in these principles or guidance, or in their interpretations, may have a significant negative effect on our reported results and retrospectively affect previously reported results, which, in turn, could cause our stock price to decline.

Our management has identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over our financial reporting.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective because of certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses relates to the absence of in-house accounting personnel with the ability to properly account for complex transactions and the lack of separation of duties between accounting and other functions.

We anticipate expanding our accounting functions with dedicated staff and improving our internal accounting procedures and separation of duties when we can absorb the costs of such expansion and improvement with additional capital resources. In the meantime, management will continue to observe and assess our internal accounting function and make necessary improvements whenever they may be required. If our remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weakness, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements, and we could be required to restate our financial results. In addition, if we are unable to successfully remediate this material weakness and if we are unable to produce accurate and timely financial statements, our stock price may be adversely affected and we may be unable to maintain compliance with applicable stock exchange listing requirements.

34

We are an "emerging growth company" and our election to delay adoption of new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies may result in our consolidated financial statements not being comparable to those of some other public companies. As a result of this and other reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, our securities may be less attractive to investors.

As a public reporting company with less than $1.07 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company, we:

are not required to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on our management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
are not required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as "compensation discussion and analysis");
are not required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our stockholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the "say-on-pay," "say-on-frequency" and "say-on-golden-parachute" votes);
are exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;
may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management's Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and
are eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act.

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under §107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our consolidated financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under §107 of the JOBS Act.

35

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions were already available to us due to the fact that we also qualify as a "smaller reporting company" under SEC rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation and report regarding management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting, are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis, are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure, and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an "emerging growth company" if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenue, have more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1.0 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. Under current SEC rules, however, we will continue to qualify as a "smaller reporting company" for so long as we have a public float (i.e., the market value of common equity held by non-affiliates) of less than $250 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Our stock price is volatile and an investment could decline in value.

The market price of our common stock fluctuates substantially as a result of many factors, some of which are beyond our control. During the 52-week period prior to the filing of this Annual Report, the market price of our common stock ranged from a low of $1.22 per share to a high of $10.62 per share, and as of April 11, 2024, was $3.27 per share. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of the value of your investment in our common stock and/or warrants. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the market price of our common stock include the following:

quarterly variations in our results of operations;
results of operations that vary from the expectations of securities analysts and investors;
results of operations that vary from those of our competitors;
changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts;
36
publication of research reports about us or the outpatient medical clinic business;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions or capital commitments;
announcements by third parties of significant claims or proceedings against us;
changes affecting the availability of financing in the outpatient medical services market;
regulatory developments in the outpatient medical clinic business;
significant future sales of our common stock;
additions or departures of key personnel;
the realization of any of the other risk factors presented in this prospectus; and
general economic, market and currency factors and conditions unrelated to our performance.

In addition, the stock market in general has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to operating performance of individual companies. These broad market factors may seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. A class action suit against us could result in significant liabilities and, regardless of the outcome, could result in substantial costs and the diversion of our management's attention and resources.

Our stock price was below $1.00 per share and was subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Our common stock closed below the required minimum $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive business days and we received a deficiency notice from Nasdaq regarding our failure to comply with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(a)(2) on September 21, 2022. When the notice was received, pursuant to Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we become subject to a period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2). If at any time the bid price of our common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, we will regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2). We did not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) prior to the expiration of the Nasdaq compliance period. We appealed the delisting determination to a Nasdaq hearing panel and the panel stayed the delisting. The Company received an extension through September 18, 2023. Effective September 7, 2023, the Company implemented a 30-for-1 stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Under the reverse split, every thirty shares of outstanding shares issued and outstanding were automatically converted into one share of ordinary share, with a par value of $0.001 each.

Our stockholders' equity is below $2,500,000, and if it continues, our common stock may be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market.

On May 31, 2023, the Company received notice from Nasdaq that the Company has failed to maintain a required minimum of $2,500,000 in stockholders' equity for continued listing, as required under Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the "Minimum Equity Rule"). On August 3, 2023, the Company submitted a plan to Nasdaq to grant the Company an extension of time until November 27, 2023 to provide evidence of compliance with the Minimum Equity Rule, and by filing this Current Report on Form 8-K, which includes (1) disclosure of Nasdaq's deficiency letter and the specific deficiency or deficiencies cited; (2) a description of the completed transaction or event that enabled the Company to satisfy the stockholders' equity requirement for continued listing; (3) an affirmative statement that, as of the date of the report, the Company believes it has regained compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement based upon the specific transaction or event referenced in item (2) above; and (4) a disclosure stating that Nasdaq will continue to monitor the Company's ongoing compliance with the stockholders' equity requirement and, if at the time of its next periodic report the Company does not evidence compliance, that it may be subject to delisting. The Company attended a Nasdaq Listing Hearing on February 20, 2024. Nasdaq agreed to extend the Company's listing based on specific conditions for continued listing.

Our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.

We may experience ownership changes in the future as a result of subsequent shifts in our stock ownership. Thus, our ability to utilize carryforwards of our net operating losses and other tax attributes to reduce future tax liabilities may be substantially restricted. Further, U.S. tax laws limit the time during which these carryforwards may be applied against future taxes. Therefore, we may not be able to take full advantage of these carryforwards for federal or state tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $45.3 million and $46.6 million, respectively.

37

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, or if our actual results differ significantly from our guidance, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, our stock price would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline.

In addition, from time to time, we may release earnings guidance or other forward-looking statements in our earnings releases, earnings conference calls or otherwise regarding our future performance that represent our management's estimates as of the date of release. Some or all of the assumptions of any future guidance that we furnish may not materialize or may vary significantly from actual future results. Any failure to meet guidance or analysts' expectations could have a material adverse effect on the trading price or volume of our stock.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company and may affect the trading price of our common stock.

Our corporate documents and the Delaware General Corporation Law contain provisions that may enable our board of directors to resist a change in control of our company even if a change in control were to be considered favorable by you and other stockholders. These provisions:

authorize the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to help defend against a takeover attempt;
establish advance notice requirements for nominating directors and proposing matters to be voted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings;
provide that stockholders are only entitled to call a special meeting upon written request by 331/3% of the outstanding common stock; and
require supermajority stockholder voting to effect certain amendments to our certificate of incorporation and bylaws.

In addition, Delaware law prohibits large stockholders, in particular those owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, from merging or consolidating with us except under certain circumstances. These provisions and other provisions under Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a transaction involving a change in control of our company. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other stockholders to elect directors of your choosing and cause us to take other corporate actions you desire.

38

We have 5,000,000 authorized and 4,995,450 unissued shares of preferred stock, and our board has the ability to designate the rights and preferences of this preferred stock without your vote.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue "blank check" preferred stock and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of these shares, without further stockholder approval. The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. As indicated in the preceding risk factor, the ability to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of the voting stock of our company thereby discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company. We currently have 4,550 outstanding shares of preferred stock.

On July 25, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive Securities Purchase Agreement with several institutional and accredited investors, including existing significant investors of Theralink Technologies, Inc., its previously announced merger partner ("Theralink"), and Theralink's Chairman, for the sale of its convertible preferred stock and warrants (the "Private Placement"). The Company sold an aggregate of 2,500 shares of its Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000 per share ("Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock"), 1,800 shares of its Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000 per share ("Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock"), and warrants ("Warrants") to purchase up to 2,075,702 shares of the Company's common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,300,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses. The shares of Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock bear a 12% dividend and are initially convertible into an aggregate of 763,126 shares of common stock of the Company, and the shares of Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock are initially convertible into an aggregate of 549,451 shares of common stock of the Company, in each case, at a conversion price of $3.276 per share. The Series A-1 and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock cannot be converted at the option of the holder into shares of the Company's common stock until shareholder approval is received in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market. The Warrants have an exercise price of $3.276 per share, are exercisable on or after the date that shareholder approval of the Private Placement is received and will expire five years from the date such shareholder approval is received. It is expected that approximately $3.0 million of the proceeds of the Private Placement will be used to make a loan to Theralink for investment into sales and marketing efforts and general working capital purposes as the companies continue to take formal steps together in advancing their planned merger previously announced on May 23, 2023. * Retrospectively restated for the effect of 30-for-1 reverse stock split.

The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which it agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") covering the resale of the shares of the Company's common stock underlying the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants no later than 45 days following the closing of the planned merger.

On July 27, 2023, the Company filed Certificates of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations establishing two series of preferred stock designated as the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of the State of Delaware.

On December 20, 2023, the Company entered into a letter agreement with several institutional and accredited investors providing for the sale of an additional aggregate $250,000 of convertible preferred stock (the "Private Placement"). Pursuant to the letter agreement, the Company exchanged its Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred stock for a corresponding number of shares of the Company's newly-created Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and the Company's newly-created Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively. Shares of the Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.84 per share, which is above the most recent closing price of the Company's common stock and represents a reduction in the conversion price from the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock. Therefore, the Series B-1 and B-2 preferred stock is convertible into 1,437,500 and 1,035,326 common shares, respectively. In addition, the exercise price of the Warrants was reduced to $1.84 pursuant to the letter agreement. The reduction in the conversion price and the exercise price was made in consideration of the additional purchase amount, therefore there was no accounting effect of this exchange. It is expected that the proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for general working capital and general corporate purposes.

All terms other than the conversion price are the same as the Series A-1 and A-2.

There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could impact the completion of the IMAC Merger with Theralink.

The Merger is structured as a stock for stock reverse merger whereby all of Theralink's outstanding equity interests are to be exchanged for shares of IMAC common stock. Theralink stakeholders are expected to own approximately 85% of the combined company, and pre-merger IMAC equity holders are expected to own approximately 15% of the combined company, on a fully diluted basis calculated using the treasury stock method, subject to certain adjustments provided for in the Merger Agreement. The boards of directors of both companies have unanimously approved the Merger Agreement. However, there can be no guarantee of the dilutive impact to shareholders prior to or as part of the Merger process. Additionally, there is a risk that cost savings, synergies and growth from the proposed Merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; the possibility that shareholders of IMAC may not approve the issuance of new shares of IMAC common stock in the proposed Merger or that shareholders of IMAC may not approve the proposed Merger; the risk that a condition to closing of the proposed Merger may not be satisfied, that either party may terminate the Merger Agreement or that the closing of the proposed Merger might be delayed or not occur at all; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed Merger; the occurrence of any other event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement relating to the proposed Merger; the risk that changes in IMAC's capital structure and governance could have adverse effects on the market value of its securities and its ability to access the capital markets; the ability of IMAC to retain its Nasdaq listing; the ability of Theralink to retain customers and retain and hire key personnel and maintain relationships with their suppliers and customers and on Theralink's operating results and business generally; the risk the proposed Merger could distract management from ongoing business operations or cause IMAC and/or Theralink to incur substantial costs; the risk that Theralink may be unable to reduce expenses; the impact of any related economic downturn; the risk of changes in regulations effecting the healthcare industry; and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. All such factors are difficult to predict and may be beyond IMAC's or Theralink's control.

In furtherance of the proposed business combination with Theralink, on April 12, 2024 we entered into a credit agreement, secured by the assets of Theralink and its subsidiaries, pursuant to which Theralink may borrow from the Company up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 with an initial borrowing of $350,000. While we remain committed to acquiring the business of Theralink, we continue to evaluate all options with respect to the structuring of the business combination, including the Merger. We cannot give any assurance that the business combination will be consummated in accordance with the previously disclosed terms, as opposed to other alternative structures. See Note 14 - Subsequent Events.

39

We do not expect to pay any dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.

We currently expect to retain all future earnings, if any, for future operation, expansion and debt repayment and have no current plans to pay any cash dividends to holders of our common stock for the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our operating results, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, we must comply with the covenants in our credit agreements in order to be able to pay cash dividends, and our ability to pay dividends generally may be further limited by covenants of any future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our common stock unless you sell our common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

We may issue additional shares of common stock, warrants or other securities to finance our growth.

We may finance the business development or generate additional working capital through additional equity financing. Therefore, subject to the rules of the Nasdaq, we may issue additional shares of our common stock, warrants and other equity securities of equal or senior rank, with or without stockholder approval, in a number of circumstances from time to time. The issuance by us of shares of our common stock, warrants or other equity securities of equal or senior rank will have the following effects:

the proportionate ownership interest in us held by our existing stockholders will decrease;
the relative voting strength of each previously outstanding share of common stock may be diminished; and
the market price of our common stock may decline.

In addition, if we issue shares of our common stock and/or warrants in a future offering (or, in the case of our common stock, the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase our common stock), it could be dilutive to our security holders.

There can be no assurance that we will ever provide liquidity to our investors through a sale of our company.

While acquisitions of healthcare companies like ours are not uncommon, potential investors are cautioned that no assurances can be given that any form of merger, combination, or sale of our company will take place, or that any merger, combination, or sale, even if consummated, would provide liquidity or a profit for our investors. You should not invest in our company with the expectation that we will be able to sell the business in order to provide liquidity or a profit for our investors.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from our public offerings and private placement and may not use them effectively.

Our management has broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from our public offerings and private placement and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not enhance the value of our common stock. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from our completed offerings, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from the offerings in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. If we do not apply or invest the net proceeds from the offerings in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause the price of our securities to decline.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

Item 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Risk Management and Strategy Disclosure.

We have established processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material risk from cybersecurity threats, and have integrated these processes into our overall risk management systems and processes. We routinely assess material risks from cybersecurity threats, including any potential unauthorized occurrence on or conducted through our information systems that may result in adverse effects on the confidentiality, integrity, or availability of our information systems or any information residing therein.

We conduct periodic risk assessments to identify cybersecurity threats, as well as assessments in the event of a material change in our business practices that may affect information systems that are vulnerable to such cybersecurity threats. These risk assessments include identification of reasonably foreseeable internal and external risks, the likelihood and potential damage that could result from such risks, and the sufficiency of existing procedures, systems, and safeguards in place to manage such risks.

Following these risk assessments, we re-design, implement, and maintain reasonable safeguards to minimize identified risks; reasonably address any identified gaps in existing safeguards; and regularly monitor the effectiveness of our safeguards. Primary responsibility for assessing, monitoring and managing our cybersecurity risks rests with an IT consultant who reports to our Chief Executive Officer, to manage the risk assessment and mitigation process.

As part of our overall risk management system, we monitor and test our safeguards and train our employees on these safeguards, in collaboration with IT and management. Personnel at all levels and departments are made aware of our cybersecurity processes through trainings.

We engage consultants, or other third parties in connection with our risk assessment processes. These service providers assist us to design and implement our cybersecurity procedures, as well as to monitor and test our safeguards. We require each third-party service provider to certify that it has the ability to implement and maintain appropriate security measures, consistent with all applicable laws, to implement and maintain reasonable security measures in connection with their work with us, and to promptly report any suspected breach of its security measures that may affect our company.

We have not encountered cybersecurity challenges that have materially impaired our operations or financial standing. For additional information regarding risks from cybersecurity threats, please refer to Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Governance Disclosure.

Our Board is periodically informed of our risk management process, including risks from cybersecurity threats. Our Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, and our executive officers are responsible for the day-to-day management of the material risks we face.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are primarily responsible to assess and manage our material risks from cybersecurity threats with assistance from third-party service providers.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer oversee our cybersecurity processes, including those described in "Risk Management and Strategy" above. The cybersecurity risk management program includes tools and activities to prevent, detect, and analyze current and emerging cybersecurity threats, and plans and strategies to address threats and incidents.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We manage our business operations from our principal executive office in Franklin, Tennessee. Our executive office lease is on a month-to-month basis. Our total rent expense was $0.7 million under our office and medical clinic leases for 2023. For more information about our outpatient locations and the terms of their leases, see Item 1, "Business - Our Operations" above.

We believe our present office space are adequate for our current operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business, as described below. Litigation is, however, subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that we believe would or could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on us. Regardless of final outcomes, however, any such proceedings or claims may nonetheless impose a significant burden on management and employees and may come with costly defense costs or unfavorable preliminary interim rulings.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Market Information

In connection with the completion of our initial public offering, our common stock and warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on February 13, 2019, under the symbols "IMAC" and "IMACW", respectively. On August 8, 2022, the Company changed its "IMAC" ticker symbol to "BACK". Our warrants expired in February 2024 and are no longer listed for trading.

As of April 16, 2024, there were approximately 36 holders of record of our common stock. We believe that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders because a large portion of our common stock is held of record through brokerage firms in "street name."

Dividend Policy

Our board of directors will determine our future dividend policy based on our result of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and other circumstances. We have not previously declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We anticipate that we will retain earnings to support operations and finance the growth of our business. Accordingly, it is not anticipated that any cash dividends will be paid on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Overview

We were a provider of movement and orthopedic therapies and minimally invasive procedures performed through our regenerative and rehabilitative medical treatments to improve the physical health of our patients at our chain of IMAC Regeneration Centers and BackSpace clinics which we owned or managed. Our outpatient medical clinics provided conservative, minimally invasive medical treatments to help patients with back pain, knee pain, joint pain, ligament and tendon damage, and other related soft tissue conditions. Our licensed healthcare professionals evaluated each patient and provided a custom treatment plan that integrated traditional medical procedures and innovative regenerative medicine procedures in combination with physical medicine. We did not use or offer opioid-based prescriptions as part of our treatment options in order to help our patients avoid the dangers of opioid abuse and addiction. The original IMAC Regeneration Center opened in Kentucky in August 2000 and remained the flagship location of our business, which was formally organized in March 2015 until it's asset sale in November 2023. As of December 31, 2023, we have sold or discontinued patient care at all our locations including The BackSpace LLC. The BackSpace operated healthcare centers specializing in chiropractic and spinal care services inside Walmart retail locations.

Given the Company's current financial position, during 2023 the Company decided to close its underperforming locations and in addition sold its Louisiana Orthopedic practice, The BackSpace, LLC operations and sold physical assets of certain locations in an effort to raise sufficient capital to support on-going operations. Management has been actively exploring various strategic alternatives in an effort to support operations in 2024 and beyond.

We owned our medical clinics directly or had entered into long-term management services agreements to operate and control certain of our medical clinics by contract. Our preference was to own the clinics; however, some state laws restrict the corporate practice of medicine and require a licensed medical practitioner to own the clinic. Accordingly, our managed clinics are owned exclusively by a medical professional within a professional service corporation (formed as a limited liability company or corporation) and are under common control with us in order to comply with state laws regulating the ownership of medical practices. We are compensated under management services agreements through service fees based on the cost of the services provided, plus a specified markup percentage, and a discretionary annual bonus determined in the sole discretion of each professional service corporation.

Matters that May or Are Currently Affecting Our Business

We believe that the growth of our business and our future success depend on various opportunities, challenges, trends and other factors, including the following:

Our ability to obtain additional financing for the projected costs associated with the acquisition and the personnel involved, if and when needed;
Our ability to attract competent, skilled medical and sales personnel for our operations at acceptable prices to manage our overhead; and
Our ability to control our operating expenses; our ability to consummate the proposed Theralink Technologies merger and, if consummated, whether it will prove to be beneficial to our Company and stockholders.

On May 23, 2023, IMAC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Nasdaq: BACK) (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Theralink Technologies, Inc. (OTC: THER), a Nevada corporation ("Theralink"), and IMAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Theralink (the "Merger"), with Theralink continuing as the surviving entity (the "Surviving Entity") and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On May 22, 2023, the board of directors of the Company, and the board of directors of Theralink unanimously approved the Merger Agreement.

At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of Theralink's common stock ("Theralink Common Stock") and each share of Theralink's preferred stock (together with the Theralink Common Stock, "Theralink Shares") issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and will thereafter represent the right to receive a portion of a share of the Company's common stock (the "Company Shares") such that the total number of Company Shares issued to the holders of Theralink Shares shall equal 85% of the total number of Company Shares outstanding as of the Effective Time (the "Merger Consideration").

At the Effective Time, each award of Theralink stock options (each, a "Theralink Stock Option"), whether or not then vested or exercisable, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be assumed by the Company and converted into a stock option relating to a number of Company Shares equal to the product of: (i) the number of shares of Theralink Common Stock subject to such Theralink Stock Option; and (ii) the ratio which results from dividing one share of Theralink Common Stock by the portion of a Company Share issuable for such share as finally determined at the Effective Time (the "Exchange Ratio"), at an exercise price per Company Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Theralink Common Stock of such Theralink Stock Option by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The Company and Theralink have each agreed, subject to certain exceptions with respect to unsolicited proposals, not to directly or indirectly solicit competing acquisition proposals or to enter into discussions concerning, or provide confidential information in connection with, any unsolicited alternative acquisition proposals. However, if such party receives an unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal that did not result from a material breach of the non-solicitation provisions of the Merger Agreement and the Company's or Theralink's board of directors, or any committee thereof, as applicable, concludes, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a superior offer, such party may furnish non-public information regarding it or any of its subsidiaries and engage in discussions and negotiations with such third party in response to such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal; provided that each party provides notice and furnishes any non-public information provided to the maker of the acquisition proposal to each party substantially concurrently with providing such non-public information to the maker of the acquisition proposal.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including: (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement by holders of a majority of the outstanding Theralink Shares; (ii) approval of the issuance of Company Shares in connection with the Merger by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock; (iii) absence of any court order or regulatory injunction prohibiting completion of the Merger; (iv) expiration or termination of (a) all waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act") and (b) any agreement with any governmental entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (v) effectiveness of the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 to register the Company Shares to be issued in the Merger; (vi) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party; (vii) the authorization for listing of Company Shares to be issued in the Merger on Nasdaq; (viii) compliance by the other party in all material respects with its covenants; and (ix) the completion of satisfactory due diligence by both parties.

The Company and Theralink have each made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including covenants and agreements relating to (i) the conduct of each of the Company's and Theralink's business between the date of the signing of the Merger Agreement and the closing date of the Merger and (ii) the efforts of the parties to cause the Merger to be completed, including actions which may be necessary to cause the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under the HSR Act.

In furtherance of the proposed business combination with Theralink, on April 12, 2024 we entered into a credit agreement, secured by the assets of Theralink and its subsidiaries, pursuant to which Theralink may borrow from the Company up to an aggregate of $1,000,000 with an initial borrowing of $350,000. While we remain committed to acquiring the business of Theralink, we continue to evaluate all options with respect to the structuring of the business combination, including the Merger. We cannot give any assurance that the business combination will be consummated in accordance with the previously disclosed terms, as opposed to other alternative structures. See Note 14 - Subsequent Events.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date and for the periods that the consolidated financial statements are prepared. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to insurance adjustments and provisions for doubtful accounts, useful lives of intangibles, property and equipment, and valuation of goodwill. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

We believe that, of the significant accounting policies discussed in our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the following accounting policies require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in the preparation of our financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

In accordance with ASC 205-20 "Discontinued Operations" establishes that the disposal or abandonment of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity should be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. As a result, the Company's component's results of operations have been classified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. Accordingly, the results of operations of this component, for all periods, are separately reported as "discontinued operations" on the consolidated statements of operations.

In 2023, the Company decided to discontinue business activities related to its underperforming clinic locations and BackSpace retail stores. As of December 31, 2023, all locations had been closed and all assets had been sold. The major classes of assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

December 31,
2023 2022
Assets
Accounts receivable, net $ - $ 2,881,239
Other current assets 1,028 176,265
Property and equipment, net 762 1,579,327
Intangible assets, net - 1,121,707
Other assets 95,040 3,920,839
Net assets from discontinued operations $ 96,830 $ 9,679,377
Liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued expenses $ 860,221 $ 1,134,099
Patient deposits - 241,666
Other current liabilities 108,088 1,439,571
Other liabilities 344,402 2,716,519
Net liabilities from discontinued operations $ 1,312,711 $ 5,531,855

The following table shows the results of income from discontinued operations:

Patient revenues, net $ 5,197,352 $ 16,186,256
Salaries and benefits 3,271,816 10,387,802
General and administrative 2,344,549 4,815,847
Other expenses 2,524,214 7,464,426
Total costs and expenses 8,140,579 22,668,075
Loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes $ (2,943,227 ) $ (6,481,819 )

Intangible Assets

The Company capitalizes the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic useful lives, generally the contract term. The Company performs valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on each acquisition accounted for as a business combination and allocates the purchase price of each acquired business to its respective net tangible and intangible assets. Acquired intangible assets include trade names, non-compete agreements, customer relationships and contractual agreements. Intangible assets are subject to annual impairment tests. An impairment loss of $0.06 million was recorded in January 2023 related to the sale of Louisiana. An impairment loss of $0.06 million was recorded in February 2023 related to the sale of BackSpace. An impairment loss of $0.27 million was recorded in April 2023 related to the Illinois asset sale. An impairment loss of $0.63 million was recorded in October 2023 related to our Kentucky asset sale. An impairment loss of $0.24 million was recorded in December 2023 related to the Company's investigational new drug. An impairment loss of $3.8 million was recorded in September 2022 related to our Illinois and Kentucky acquisitions.

Goodwill

Our goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired in business combinations. The goodwill generated from the business combinations is primarily related to the value placed on the employee workforce and expected synergies. Judgment is involved in determining if an indicator or change in circumstances relating to impairment has occurred. Such changes may include, among others, a significant decline in expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, and unforeseen competition.

The goodwill test is performed at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The annual impairment test includes an option to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value; the qualitative test may be performed prior to, or as an alternative to, performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the Company is required to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required. A goodwill impairment loss of $0 and $4.5 million was recorded in December 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's patient service revenue was derived from non-surgical procedures performed at our outpatient medical clinics. The fees for such services were billed either to the patient or a third-party payer, including Medicare.

The Company recognized service revenues based upon the estimated amounts the Company expects to be entitled to receive from patients and third-party payers. Estimates of contractual adjustments are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. The Company also records estimated implicit price concessions (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record these revenues at the estimated amounts expected to be collected.

Starting in January 2020, the Company implemented wellness maintenance programs on a subscription basis. There were four membership plans offered with different levels of service for each plan. The Company recognized membership revenue on a monthly basis. Enrollment in the wellness maintenance program can occur at any time during the month and can be dis-enrolled at any time.

Starting in June 2021, the Company introduced BackSpace and began offering outpatient chiropractic and spinal care services as well as memberships services in Walmart retail locations. The fees for such services were paid and recognized as incurred.

46

Starting in September 2022, the Company introduced hormone replacement therapy "HRT" and medical weight loss programs. The Company recognized HRT and medical weight loss revenue as the services are provided.

Other management service fees are derived from management services where the Company provides billings and collections support to the clinics and where management services were provided based on state specific regulations known as the corporate practice of medicine ("CPM"). Under the CPM, a business corporation is precluded from practicing medicine or employing a physician to provide professional medical services. In these circumstances, the Company provides all administrative support to the physician-owned PC through a LLC. The PC is consolidated due to control by contract (an "MSA" - Management Services Agreement). The fees we derive from these management arrangements are either based on a predetermined percentage of the revenue of each clinic or a percentage mark up on the costs of the LLC. The company recognized other management service revenue in the period in which services were rendered. These revenues are earned by IMAC Nashville, IMAC Management, IMAC Illinois, IMAC Florida, IMAC Louisiana and the Back Space and are eliminated in consolidation to the extent owned.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable primarily consists of amounts due from third-party payers (non-governmental), governmental payers and private pay patients and is recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts and contractual discounts. Our ability to collect outstanding receivables is critical to our results of operations and cash flows. Accordingly, accounts receivable reported in our consolidated financial statements are recorded at the net amount expected to be received. Our primary collection risks are (i) the risk of overestimation of net revenues at the time of billing that may result in our receiving less than the recorded receivable, (ii) the risk of non-payment as a result of commercial insurance companies' denial of claims, (iii) the risk that patients will fail to remit insurance payments to us when the commercial insurance company pays out-of-network claims directly to the patient, (iv) resource and capacity constraints that may prevent us from handling the volume of billing and collection issues in a timely manner, (v) the risk that patients do not pay us for their self-pay balances (including co-pays, deductibles and any portion of the claim not covered by insurance), and (vi) the risk of non-payment from uninsured patients.

Our accounts receivable from third-party payers are recorded net of estimated contractual adjustments and allowances from third-party payers, which are estimated based on the historical trend of our facilities' cash collections and contractual write-offs, accounts receivable aging, established fee schedules, relationships with payers and procedure statistics. While changes in estimated reimbursement from third-party payers remain a possibility, we expect that any such changes would be minimal and, therefore, would not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Our collection policies and procedures are based on the type of payor, size of claim and estimated collection percentage for each patient account. The operating systems used to manage our patient accounts provide for an aging schedule in 30-day increments, by payer, physician and patient. We analyze accounts receivable at each of the facilities to ensure the proper collection and aged category. The operating systems generate reports that assist in the collection efforts by prioritizing patient accounts. Collection efforts include direct contact with insurance carriers or patients and written correspondence.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2023 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2022

We owned our medical clinics directly or have entered into long-term management services agreements to operate and control these medical clinics by contract. Our preference is to own the clinics; however, some state laws restrict the corporate practice of medicine and require a licensed medical practitioner to own the clinic. Accordingly, our managed clinics are owned exclusively by a medical professional within a professional service corporation (formed as a limited liability company or corporation) under common control with us or eligible members of our company in order to comply with state laws regulating the ownership of medical practices. We were compensated under management services agreements through service fees based on the cost of the services provided, plus a specified markup percentage, and a discretionary annual bonus determined in the sole discretion of each professional service corporation.

Revenues - Discontinued Operations

Our revenue mix is diversified between medical treatments and physiological treatments. Our medical treatments are further segmented into traditional medical and regenerative medicine practices. We are an in-network provider for traditional physical medical treatments, such as physical therapy, chiropractic services and medical evaluations, with most private health insurance carriers. Regenerative medical treatments are typically not covered by insurance, but paid by the patient. For more information on our revenue recognition policies, see "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - Revenue Recognition."

Revenues from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

Year Ended

The Company began opening retail clinics in Walmart in June 2021. The retail clinics provided outpatient chiropractic and spinal care services. The revenue decrease attributed to the retail clinics was $0.6 million due to the closure or sale of all locations.

Memberships

A wellness membership program was implemented at IMAC Clinics in January 2020 and this wellness program had different plan levels that included services for chiropractic care and medical treatments on a monthly subscription basis. Therefore, memberships could have multiple visits in one month, however only one payment was received for these visits. BackSpace also had a membership plan for chiropractic care on a monthly subscription basis. As of December 31, 2023, 83% of the BackSpace revenue was related to memberships.

FDA Clinical Trial

In August 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") approved the Company's investigational new drug application. The Company has completed Phase 1 of the clinical trial, which was conducted over a 12-month period. The Company incurred $(3,000) in expenses related to a credit from consultants, supplies, software and travel for the clinical trial during 2023, which is included in the G&A totals above. This is compared to $360,000 that was incurred for the trial in 2022.

Depreciation is related to our property and equipment purchases to use in the course of our business activities. Amortization is related to our business acquisitions.

Depreciation and amortization decreased due to the sale of assets and impairment of intangible assets for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.

The Company recognized a loss on disposition or impairment of $3.4 million in 2023 and $4.5 million in 2022 as a result of intangible write-offs and location closures in 2023 and largely goodwill impairment in 2022.

Analysis of Cash Flows

The primary source of our operating cash flow is the collection of accounts receivable from patients, private insurance companies, government programs, self-insured employers and other payers.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, net cash used in operations decreased to $2.8 million compared to $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to our lower net loss in 2023 and discontinuance of our operations.

Net cash used in investing activities during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $1.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The increase was primarily due to $3 million in loans made to Theralink offset by $1.2 million proceeds from the sale of assets and practices.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2023 was $4.0 million, which was primarily proceeds from the sale of preferred stock, net of related fees, which totaled $4.0 million. Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $4.2 million, including proceeds from the sale of common stock, net of related fees, which totaled $4.4 million, reduced by principal repayments of $0.3 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2023, we had $0.2 million in cash and a working capital deficit of $(0.8) million. As of December 31, 2022, we had cash of $0.8 million and working capital of $3.2 million. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to a $8.6 million decrease in current assets and a $4.5 million decrease in current liabilities.

As of December 31, 2023, we had approximately $1.9 million in current liabilities. Approximately $0.8 million of our current liabilities outstanding were to our vendors, which we have historically paid down in the normal course of our business and accrued payroll. The current portion of our operating lease liability accounted for approximately $0.1 million of our current liabilities.

As of December 31, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $55.9 million. We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital to fund future operations. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds or enter into such arrangements when needed or favorable terms, or at all, which would have a negative impact on our financial condition and could force us to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our development or acquisition activity. Failure to receive additional funding could also cause us to cease operations, in part or in full. Furthermore, even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current of future operating plans, we may seek additional capital due to favorable market conditions or strategic considerations. Our management team has determined that our financial condition raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

Iliad Note

On October 29, 2020, the Company entered into the Note Purchase Agreement with Iliad pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to Iliad a secured promissory note in an initial principal amount of $2,690,000, which is payable on or before April 29, 2022. The October Principal Amount includes an original discount of $175,000 and $15,000 that the Company agreed to pay to Iliad to cover legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence and other transaction costs. In exchange for the October Note, Iliad paid a purchase price of $2,500,000. The October Purchase Agreement also provides for indemnification of Iliad and its affiliates in the event that they incur loss or damage related to, amount other things, breach by the Company of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under the October Purchase Agreement. In connection with the October Purchase Agreement and the October Note, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with Iliad, pursuant to which the obligations of the Company is secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding the Company's accounts receivable and intellectual property. Upon an event of default under the October Note, the October Security Agreement entitles the Holder to take possession of such collateral; provided that Iliad's security interest and remedies with respect to the collateral are junior in priority to the security interest previously granted by the Company to Iliad in connection with a separate financing entered into by them on March 25, 2020, for which Iliad holds a senior, first-priority security interest in the same collateral. The Company repaid the note in January 2022.

Public Offering

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of:

IMAC Holdings, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of IMAC Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows, for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has had historical net losses and net cash used in operating activities, has discontinued operations and will require additional financing to continue operations in 2024. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's Plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

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

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

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

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of IMAC Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), as of December 31, 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements").

The Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans, in regard to these matters, are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 - Description of Business

IMAC Holdings, Inc. is a holding company for IMAC Regeneration Centers, The Back Space retail stores and our Investigational New Drug division. IMAC Holdings, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, the "Company") provided movement, orthopedic and neurological therapies through its chain of IMAC Regeneration Centers. Through its consolidated and equity owned entities, its outpatient medical clinics provided conservative, non-invasive medical treatments to help patients with back pain, knee pain, joint pain, ligament and tendon damage, and other related soft tissue conditions. As of December 31, 2023, the Company has sold or discontinued patient care at all our locations and has accordingly presented this component as discontinued operations. (See Note 2.) The Company delivered sports medicine treatments without opioids. The BackSpace operated healthcare centers specializing in chiropractic and spinal care services inside Walmart retail locations. The Company's Investigational New Drug division conducted a clinical trial for its investigational compound utilizing umbilical cord-derived allogenic mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of bradykinesia due to Parkinson's disease.

Planned Merger

On May 23, 2023, IMAC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (Nasdaq: BACK) (the "Company") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Theralink Technologies, Inc. (OTC: THER), a Nevada corporation ("Theralink"), and IMAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Merger Sub"). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Theralink (the "Merger"), with Theralink continuing as the surviving entity (the "Surviving Entity") and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. On May 22, 2023, the board of directors of the Company, and the board of directors of Theralink unanimously approved the Merger Agreement.

At the effective time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each share of Theralink's common stock ("Theralink Common Stock") and each share of Theralink's preferred stock (together with the Theralink Common Stock, "Theralink Shares") issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into and will thereafter represent the right to receive a portion of a share of the Company's common stock (the "Company Shares") such that the total number of Company Shares issued to the holders of Theralink Shares shall equal 85% of the total number of Company Shares outstanding as of the Effective Time (the "Merger Consideration").

At the Effective Time, each award of Theralink stock options (each, a "Theralink Stock Option"), whether or not then vested or exercisable, that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be assumed by the Company and converted into a stock option relating to a number of Company Shares equal to the product of: (i) the number of shares of Theralink Common Stock subject to such Theralink Stock Option; and (ii) the ratio which results from dividing one share of Theralink Common Stock by the portion of a Company Share issuable for such share as finally determined at the Effective Time (the "Exchange Ratio"), at an exercise price per Company Share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Theralink Common Stock of such Theralink Stock Option by (B) the Exchange Ratio.

The Company and Theralink have each agreed, subject to certain exceptions with respect to unsolicited proposals, not to directly or indirectly solicit competing acquisition proposals or to enter into discussions concerning, or provide confidential information in connection with, any unsolicited alternative acquisition proposals. However, if such party receives an unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal that did not result from a material breach of the non-solicitation provisions of the Merger Agreement and the Company's or Theralink's board of directors, or any committee thereof, as applicable, concludes, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal constitutes, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a superior offer, such party may furnish non-public information regarding it or any of its subsidiaries and engage in discussions and negotiations with such third party in response to such unsolicited, bona fide acquisition proposal; provided that each party provides notice and furnishes any non-public information provided to the maker of the acquisition proposal to each party substantially concurrently with providing such non-public information to the maker of the acquisition proposal.

The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including: (i) adoption of the Merger Agreement by holders of a majority of the outstanding Theralink Shares; (ii) approval of the issuance of Company Shares in connection with the Merger by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock; (iii) absence of any court order or regulatory injunction prohibiting completion of the Merger; (iv) expiration or termination of (a) all waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act") and (b) any agreement with any governmental entity not to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (v) effectiveness of the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 to register the Company Shares to be issued in the Merger; (vi) subject to specified materiality standards, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party; (vii) the authorization for listing of Company Shares to be issued in the Merger on Nasdaq; (viii) compliance by the other party in all material respects with its covenants; and (ix) the completion of satisfactory due diligence by both parties.

The Company and Theralink have each made customary representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement also contains customary covenants and agreements, including covenants and agreements relating to (i) the conduct of each of the Company's and Theralink's business between the date of the signing of the Merger Agreement and the closing date of the Merger and (ii) the efforts of the parties to cause the Merger to be completed, including actions which may be necessary to cause the expiration or termination of any waiting periods under the HSR Act.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation - Discontinued Operations

In accordance with ASC 205-20 "Discontinued Operations" establishes that the disposal or abandonment of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity should be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. As a result, the Company's component's results of operations have been classified as discontinued operations on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. Accordingly, the results of operations of this component, for all periods, are separately reported as "discontinued operations" on the consolidated statements of operations.

In 2023, the Company decided to discontinue business activities related to its underperforming clinic locations and BackSpace retail stores. As of December 31, 2023, all locations had been closed and all assets had been sold.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date and for the periods that the consolidated financial statements are prepared. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to contractual insurance adjustments on revenues and provisions for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-lived assets including intangible assets, valuation of loans receivable and valuation of stock-based compensation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations. Specifically we retrospectively reclassified certain amounts in 2022 to present as discontinued operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's patient service revenue was derived from non-surgical procedures performed at our outpatient medical clinics. The fees for such services were billed either to the patient or a third-party payer, including Medicare.

The Company recognized service revenues based upon the estimated amounts the Company expects to be entitled to receive from patients and third-party payers. Estimates of contractual adjustments are based upon the payment terms specified in the related contractual agreements. The Company also records estimated implicit price concessions (based primarily on historical collection experience) related to uninsured accounts to record these revenues at the estimated amounts expected to be collected.

Starting in January 2020, the Company implemented wellness maintenance programs on a subscription basis. There were four membership plans offered with different levels of service for each plan. The Company recognized membership revenue on a monthly basis. Enrollment in the wellness maintenance program can occur at any time during the month and can be dis-enrolled at any time.

Starting in June 2021, the Company introduced BackSpace and began offering outpatient chiropractic and spinal care services as well as memberships services in Walmart retail locations. The fees for such services were paid and recognized as incurred.

Starting in September 2022, the Company introduced hormone replacement therapy "HRT" and medical weight loss programs. The Company recognized HRT and medical weight loss revenue as the services are provided.

Other management service fees are derived from management services where the Company provided billings and collections support to the clinics and where management services were provided based on state specific regulations known as the corporate practice of medicine ("CPM"). Under the CPM, a business corporation is precluded from practicing medicine or employing a physician to provide professional medical services. In these circumstances, the Company provides all administrative support to the physician-owned PC through a LLC. The PC is consolidated due to control by contract (an "MSA" - Management Services Agreement). The fees we derive from these management arrangements are either based on a predetermined percentage of the revenue of each clinic or a percentage mark up on the costs of the LLC. The company recognized other management service revenue in the period in which services were rendered. These revenues are earned by IMAC Nashville, IMAC Management, IMAC Illinois, IMAC Florida, IMAC Louisiana and the Back Space and are eliminated in consolidation to the extent owned.

63

Patient Deposits

Patient deposits were derived from patient payments in advance of services delivered. Our service lines included traditional and regenerative medicine. Regenerative medicine procedures are rarely paid by insurance carriers; therefore, the Company typically requires up-front payment from the patient for regenerative services and any co-pays and deductibles as required by the patient specific insurance carrier. For some patients, credit is provided through an outside vendor. In this case, the Company is paid from the credit card company and the risk is transferred to the credit card company for collection from the patient. These funds were accounted for as patient deposits until the procedures were performed at which point the patient deposit was recognized as patient service revenue.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature. The carrying amount of the line of credit and note payable approximates fair values due to their market interest rates. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

Variable Interest Entities

Certain states prohibit the "corporate practice of medicine," which restricts business corporations from practicing medical care by exercising control over clinical decisions by doctors. In states which prohibit the corporate practice of medicine, the Company entered into long-term management agreements with professional corporations ("PCs") that are owned by licensed doctors, which, in turn employ or contract with doctors who provide professional care in its clinics. Under these management agreements with PCs, the Company provided, on an exclusive basis, all non-clinical services of the practice.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of variable interest entities ("VIE") in which the Company is the primary beneficiary under the provisions of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification 810, "Consolidation". The Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact a VIE's economic performance. Additionally, the Company would absorb the substantially all of the expected losses from any of these entities should such expected losses occur. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company's consolidated VIE's include 12 PCs and 13 PCs respectively.

The total assets (excluding goodwill and intangible assets, net) of the consolidated VIEs included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, were approximately ($3.9) million and $1.8million respectively, and the total liabilities of the consolidated VIEs were approximately $0.2million and $0.5million, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had nocash equivalents at December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable primarily consists of amounts due from third-party payers (non-governmental), governmental payers and private pay patients and is recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts and contractual discounts. The Company's ability to collect outstanding receivables is critical to its results of operations and cash flows. Accordingly, accounts receivable reported in the Company's consolidated financial statements is recorded at the net amount expected to be received.

The Company's accounts receivable from third-party payers are recorded net of estimated contractual adjustments and allowances from third-party payers, which are estimated based on the historical trend of the Company's facilities' cash collections and contractual write-offs, accounts receivable aging, established fee schedules, relationships with payers and procedure statistics. While changes in estimated reimbursement from third-party payers remain a possibility, the Company expects that any such changes would be minimal and, therefore, would not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. The Company's collection policies and procedures are based on the type of payor, size of claim and estimated collection percentage for each patient account. The Company analyzes accounts receivable at each of the facilities to ensure the proper collection and aged category. The operating systems generate reports that assist in the collection efforts by prioritizing patient accounts. Collection efforts include direct contact with insurance carriers or patients and written correspondence.

Allowance for Contractual, Other Discounts and Doubtful Accounts

Management estimates the allowance for contractual and other discounts based on its historical collection experience and contracted relationship with the payers. The services authorized and provided and related reimbursement are often subject to interpretation and negotiation that could result in payments that differ from the Company's estimates.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses." This ASU added a new impairment model (known as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses. As a result, the Company changed its accounting policy for allowance for doubtful accounts using an expected losses model rather than using incurred losses. The new model is based on the credit losses expected to arise over the life of the asset based on the Company's expectations as of the balance sheet date through analyzing historical customer data as well as taking into consideration current economic trends.

As a smaller reporting Company pursuant to Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, these changes became effective for the Company on January 1, 2023. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material financial impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The roll forward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was as follows:

December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022
Beginning balance $ 163,479 $ 80,979
Bad debt expense 431,671 82,500
Write-offs (155,852 ) -
Ending balance $ 439,298 * $ 163,479 *
* As discussed in Note 1, the Company decided to discontinue business activities related to its underperforming clinic locations and BackSpace retail stores. See Note 2 for the resulting impact on this previous disclosed amount.

Note Receivable

Note Receivable is a subordinated promissory note and a convertible promissory note that the Company's merger partner, Theralink Technologies, Inc. ("THER") entered into during July of 2023 and August of 2023, respectively. Each note is due to be repaid within one year and contains interest compounding at 6.0%. The convertible promissory note also contains a convertible feature at the option of the Company into THER common stock at a fixed price of $0.00313per share. The total amount loaned between the two notes was $3.0million. The Company determined the fair value of the notes and related accrued interest owed as of December 31, 2023 was approximately $0.7million (their principal balance less a credit loss allowance under ASU 2016-13 of approximately $2.3million which was recorded as an impairment of assets in 2023) given the current financial position of THER and their perceived lack of ability to re-pay these notes as of December 31, 2023.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions and improvements to property and equipment are capitalized at cost. Depreciation of owned assets are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives and amortization of leasehold improvements are computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the lease term. The cost of assets sold or retired, and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or losses are reflected in other income (expense) for the year. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Intangible Assets

The Company capitalizes the fair value of intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated economic useful lives, generally the contract term. The Company performs valuations of assets acquired and liabilities assumed on each acquisition accounted for as a business combination and allocates the purchase price of each acquired business to its respective net tangible and intangible assets. The Company records an impairment loss when the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. An impairment loss of $0.06million was recorded in January 2023 related to the sale of Louisiana. An impairment loss of $0.06million was recorded in February 2023 related to the sale of BackSpace. An impairment loss of $0.27million was recorded in April 2023 related to the Illinois asset sale. An impairment loss of $0.613million was recorded in October 2023 related to our Kentucky asset sale. An impairment loss of $0.24million was recorded in December 2023 related to the Company's investigational new drug. In March 2022 the Company decided to close a clinic in Florida with a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $34,000, which was written off as impaired. As a result, the Company recorded a noncash impairment loss for this amount during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Due to a significant drop in share price in the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred. It was determined that there was an impairment loss of $2,128,000on the IMAC Illinois MSA and $1,672,000on the IMAC Kentucky MSA. In the three months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,000on the IMAC Florida MSA. An impairment loss of $0.12million and $0.03million was charged to discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The remaining impairment loss was charged to continuing operations.

Goodwill

Our goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations. The goodwill generated from the business combinations is primarily related to the value placed on the employee workforce and expected synergies. Judgment is involved in determining if an indicator or change in circumstances relating to impairment has occurred. Such changes may include, among others, a significant decline in expected future cash flows, a significant adverse change in the business climate, and unforeseen competition.

The goodwill test is performed at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The annual impairment test includes an option to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value; the qualitative test may be performed prior to, or as an alternative to, performing a quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, then the Company is required to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, no further analysis is required.

The Company operates under one reporting unit. The quantitative impairment test involves the comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit to the Company's carrying value. The Company calculates the fair value of each reporting unit using either (i) a discounted cash flows analysis that converts future cash flow amounts into a single discounted present value amount or (ii) a market approach. The Company assesses the valuation methodology based upon the relevance and availability of the data at the time that the valuation is performed. The Company compares the estimate of fair value for the reporting unit to the carrying value of the reporting unit. If the carrying value is greater than the estimate of fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in the amount of the excess.

65
The Company performs its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. For the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company elected not to perform a qualitative impairment test and instead went straight to a quantitative assessment. As a result, the Company concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the carrying value would be greater than the estimated fair value as of December 31, 2022. In addition, given the lack of viable long-term solvency it was determined that it was appropriate to fully impair goodwill. A goodwill impairment loss of $4.5million was recorded as of December 31, 2022.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets such as property and equipment, operating lease assets and intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

Some of the events or changes in circumstances that would trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to:

the Company's expectation to dispose of long-lived assets before the end of their estimated useful lives, even though the assets do not meet the criteria to be classified as "Held for Sale";
significant changes in the Company's stock price per share;
significant negative industry or economic trends.

Advertising and Marketing

The Company uses advertising and marketing to promote its services. Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and marketing expense was approximately $7,732and $74,011* for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
* As discussed in Note 1, the Company decided to discontinue business activities related to its underperforming clinic locations and BackSpace retail stores. See Note 2 for the resulting impact on this previous disclosed amount.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average of common shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of the conversion option embedded in convertible debt. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. Dilutive shares not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive due to the Company's net loss were as follows:

December 31,

Preferred shares B-1 1,437,500 -
Preferred shares B-2 1,035,326 -
4,948,422 433,827

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Deferred tax assets are required to be reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

66
Note 3 - Capital Requirements, Liquidity and Going Concern ConsiderationsThe Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and includes the assumption of a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has sustained substantial losses from operations since inception and has discontinued its operations as of December 31, 2023 which raises substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance date of this report. The Company had a working capital deficit of approximately ($0.8) million at December 31, 2023. The Company had a net loss of approximately $9.4million for the year ended December 31, 2023, and used cash in operations of approximately $2.8million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company expects to continue to incur expenditures for working capital.

Management's plans are to merge with an operating company or acquire a new business (See Note 1). Management recognizes that the Company may need to obtain additional resources to successfully implement its business plans. No assurances can be given that we will be successful. If management is not able to timely and successfully raise additional capital if needed, the implementation of the Company's business plan, financial condition and results of operations will be materially affected. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 -Concentration of Credit Risks

Cash

The Company maintains its cash in accounts at financial institutions, which may, at times, exceed federally-insured limits of $250,000. No amounts were in excess of FDIC limits at December 31, 2023.

In February 2023, the Company sold the BackSpace retail clinics which had a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $60,000which was written off as impaired.

On April 1, 2023, the Company executed an agreement to sell all the assets of Ricardo Knight, PC which had a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $265,000which was written off as impaired.

In October 2023, the Company executed an agreement to sell all the assets of the Kentucky Market which has a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $614,000which was written off as impaired.

In December, 2023, the Company determined that the intangible asset for the investigational new drug which had a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $244,000was impaired and was written off.

In March 2022 the Company decided to close a clinic in Florida with a total intangible carrying amount of approximately $34,000, which was written off as impaired. As a result, the Company recorded a noncash impairment loss for this amount during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Due to a significant drop in share price in the three months ended September 20, 2022, the Company determined that a triggering event occurred. It was determined that there was an impairment loss of $2,128,000on the IMAC Illinois MSA and $1,672,000on the IMAC Kentucky MSA.

The Company performs its annual impairment test during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year.For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company closed or sold all locations. The Company performed a qualitative impairment test and based on the totality of information available for the reporting units, the Company concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the carrying value is greater than the estimated fair values of the reporting units at December 31, 2023. An intangible impairment loss of approximately $1.2million was recorded in 2023.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company performed a qualitative impairment test and, based on the totality of information available for the reporting units, the Company concluded that it was more-likely-than-not that the carrying value is greater than the estimated fair values of the reporting units as of December 31, 2022. A goodwill impairment loss of $4.5million was recorded in December 2022 related to our Florida, Tennessee, Missouri and Louisiana acquisitions.

Note 8 - Operating Leases

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic ASC 842 using the modified retrospective method applied to leases that were in place at January 1, 2019. The Company's leases consist of operating leases that relate to real estate rental agreements. Most of the value of the Company's lease portfolio upon adoption relates to real estate lease agreements that were entered into starting March 2017.

Discount Rate Applied to Property Operating Lease

To determine the present value of minimum future lease payments for operating leases at January 1, 2019, the Company was required to estimate a rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment (the "incremental borrowing rate" or "IBR").

The Company determined the appropriate IBR by identifying a reference rate and making adjustments that take into consideration financing options and certain lease-specific circumstances. For the reference rate of leases added during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company used a weighted average interest rate.

Total operating lease cost

Note 10 - Shareholders' Equity (Deficit)

Reverse Stock Split

Effective on September 7, 2023, the Company implemented a 30-for-1reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Under the reverse split, every thirty shares of outstanding shares issued and outstanding were automatically converted into one share of ordinary share, with a par value of $0.001each. Except as otherwise indicated, all information in the consolidated financial statements concerning share and per share data reflects the retroactive effect to the 30-for-1 reverse stock split.

2018 Incentive Compensation Plan

The Company's board of directors and holders of a majority of outstanding shares approved and adopted the Company's 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan ("2018 Plan") in May 2018, reserving the issuance of up to 2,000,000shares of common stock (subject to certain adjustments) upon exercise of stock options and grants of other equity awards. The 2018 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options ("ISOs"), nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, performance-based stock awards, other forms of equity compensation and performance cash awards. ISOs may be granted only to employees. All other awards may be granted to employees, including officers, and to the Company's non-employee directors and consultants, and affiliates.

Stock Options

During 2023 and 2022, the Company did not issue any new stock options. Most options vested over a period of four years, with 25%vesting after one year and the remaining 75%vesting in equal monthly installments over the following 36 months and are exercisable for a period of ten years. Stock based compensation for stock options is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value calculated using the Black-Scholes method. The per-share fair values of these options is calculated based on the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model.

Preferred Stock

On July 25, 2023, the Company entered into a definitive securities purchase agreement with several institutional and accredited investors, including existing significant investors of Theralink Technologies, Inc., its previously announced merger partner (OTC:THER) ("Theralink"), and Theralink's Chairman, for the sale of its preferred stock and warrants. IMAC sold an aggregate of 2,500shares of its Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000per share, 1,800shares of its Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, stated value $1,000per share, and Warrants to purchase up to 2,075,702shares of its common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $4.3million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses of $480,000. The shares of A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, shall bear a 12% dividend based on stated, value have no voting rights, and are initially convertible into an aggregate of 763,126shares of common stock of the Company, and the shares of Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock are initially convertible into an aggregate of 549,451shares of common stock of the Company, in each case, at a conversion price of $3.276per share. The Warrants have an exercise price of $3.276per share, are exercisable immediately, and will expire five yearsfrom the date of shareholder approval of this private placement. The shares contain price protection provisions and beneficial ownership limitation provisions upon conversion as defined in the certificates of designation. Approximately $3.0million of the proceeds of the offering was used to make two loans to Theralink for investment into sales and marketing efforts and general working capital purposes as the companies continue to take formal steps together in advancing their merger previously announced on May 23, 2023. As of December 31, 2023 dividends of approximately $130,000have been declared and accrued on the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which it agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") covering the resale of the shares of the Company's common stock underlying the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants no later than 45 days following the closing of the planned merger.

On December 20, 2023, the Company entered into a letter agreement with several institutional and accredited investors providing for the sale of an additional aggregate $250,000of convertible preferred stock (the "Private Placement") with offering expenses of approximately $25,000. Pursuant to the letter agreement, the Company exchanged its Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred stock for a corresponding number of shares of the Company's newly-created Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and the Company's newly-created Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively. Shares of the Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $1.84per share, which is above the most recent closing price of the Company's common stock and represents a reduction in the conversion price from the Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Convertible Preferred Stock. Therefore, the Series B-1 and B-2 preferred stock is convertible into 1,437,500and 1,035,326common shares, respectively. In addition, the exercise price of the Warrants was reduced to $1.84pursuant to the letter agreement. The reduction in the conversion price and the exercise price was made in consideration of the additional purchase amount, therefore there was no accounting effect of this exchange. It is expected that the proceeds of the Private Placement will be used for general working capital and general corporate purposes.

All terms other than the conversion price are the same as the Series A-1 and A-2.

In 2024, the Series B-1 and B-2 preferred shares were exchanged for Series C shares (See Note 14).

Common Stock

On July 6, 2022, the Company's shareholders approved the Board of Directors' proposal to increase the number of authorized shares of the Company's common stock to 60,000,000shares from 30,000,000 shares.

On August 16, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with institutional accredited investors (the "Purchasers") pursuant to which the Company offered for sale to the Purchasers an aggregate of 172,149shares (the "Shares") of its common stock at a purchase price of $22.80, in a registered direct offering (the "Registered Direct Offering"). In a concurrent private placement, the Company also agreed to issue to the investors Series 1 warrants to purchase 172,149shares of common stock that will become exercisable on the date that is six months following the date of issuance of the shares of common stock in the Registered Direct Offering (the "Exercise Date") and expire on the five year anniversary of the Exercise Date, at an exercise price of $28.5per share, and Series 2 warrants to purchase 172,149shares of common stock that will become exercisable on the Exercise Date and expire on the one year anniversary of the Exercise Date, at an exercise price of $28.50per share. The Shares were offered by the Company pursuant to its shelf registration statement on Form S-3 originally filed with the SEC on March 27, 2020 (as amended, the "Registration Statement"), which was declared effective on April 3, 2020. The Company received gross proceeds of both transactions of $3.9million. The Company used the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including financing the costs of implementing the Company's strategic alternative activities.

In January 2023, the Company issued 2,725common shares for cash of $16,650under its At The Market (ATM) offering.

On December 27, 2023, issued an aggregate of 10,000common shares for the Board members valued at $4.29per share or $42,900based on the quoted trading price on the grant date which was May 2023.

The Company made contributions of $39,192and $134,534during 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company terminated the matching contributions during 2023.

Note 12 - Income Taxes

For the year ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, noincome tax expense or benefit was recorded related to income taxes due to the Company's overall operating results and the change in the valuation allowance. The components of income tax expense (benefit) for the year ended December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, are as follows:

The Company has federal net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $45.3million and state net operating losses of approximately $46.6million as of December 31, 2023. There is no expiration of the federal loss carry-forwards as all federal net operating loss carry-forwards were generated after December 31, 2017. The state operating loss carry-forwards are subject to expiration beginning on December 31, 2031. Net deferred tax assets are mainly comprised of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amount and tax basis of assets and liabilities.

ASC 740 requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, a full valuation allowance was required.

In addition, the Company performed a comprehensive review of its uncertain tax positions and determined that no adjustments were necessary relating to unrecognized tax benefits as December 31, 2023. The Company's federal and state income tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities for three years after the returns are filed, and the Company's federal and state income tax returns for 2020 through 2023 remain open to examination.

Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies

The Company accrues a liability and charges operations for the estimated costs of contingent liabilities, including adjudication or settlement of various asserted and unasserted claims existing as of the consolidated balance sheet date, when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the loss (or range of probable loss) is estimable.

From time to time the Company may become subject to threatened and/or asserted claims arising in the ordinary course of our business. Other than the matter described below, management is not aware of any matters, either individually or in the aggregate, that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Third Party Audit

From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to audits under various governmental programs in which third party firms engaged by the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") conduct extensive reviews of claims data to identify potential improper payments. We cannot predict the ultimate outcome of any regulatory reviews or other governmental audits and investigations.

On April 15, 2021, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $2,921,868. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of $11,530of charges from a sample of 40 claims for the periods February 2017 to November 2020. On June 3, 2021, the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $2,918,472. The Company began its own internal audit process and initiated the appropriate appeals. The Company received a notification dated September 30, 2021, from CMS that they "found the request to be favorable by reversing the extrapolation to actual". The Company received a separate notification stating "the extrapolated overpayment was reduced to the actual overpayment amount for the sampled denied claims $5,327.73," which had been paid as of December 31, 2021.

On October 21, 2021, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $2,716,056.33. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of $6,791.33of charges from a sample of 38 claims for the periods July 2017 to November 2020 for Progressive Health & Rehabilitation, Ltd ("Progressive Health"). The Company entered into a management agreement with Progressive Health in April 2019 and therefore liable for only a portion of the sampled claims. There were a total of 38 claims reviewed, 25 of these claims were from the period prior to the management agreement with the Company and the remaining 13 claims were related to the period that Progressive Health was managed by the Company. In December 2021, the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $2,709,265. The Company has begun its own internal audit process and has initiated the appropriate appeals. The Company submitted a redetermination request in March 2022, which was denied. The Company submitted a reconsideration request February 27, 2023. On July 5, 2023, the Company received a reconsideration decision from the second appeal. The Qualified Independent Contractor provided a "partially favorable" decision that medical necessity supported 15 of 38 appealed claims. The Company filed a timely appeal and a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge was conducted November 29, 2023. The ALJ decision received on February 7, 2024, failed to address appeal and partially favorable decision impact on the extrapolated charges. The Company timely filed an appeal to Medicare Appeals Council on April 5, 2024.

On May 17, 2022, the Company received notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") contractor, that they are recommending to CMS that the Company was overpaid in the amount of $492,086.22related to Advantage Therapy. This amount represents a statistical extrapolation of charges from a sample, the actual amount found to be overpaid was $10,420.22. On May 27, 2022 the Company received a request for payment from CMS in the amount of $481,666.00. The Company has begun its own internal audit process and has initiated the appropriate appeals. Prior to this May 2022 notification, CMS had implemented a pre-payment audit for Advantage Therapy. As of June 30, 2023, this audit had resulted in a recoupment balance of approximately $0.1million of Medicare accounts receivable. The Company submitted a reconsideration request in May 2023. On August 4, 2023, the Company received a reconsideration decision from the second appeal. The Qualified Independent Contractor provided a "partially favorable" decision supporting 31 of 65 appealed claims. The Company filed a timely appeal and conducted a hearing with an Administrative Law Judge February 20, 2024, and awaits the response from the hearing. As of December 31, 2023, this audit had resulted in a balance of approximately $138,000of Medicare accounts receivable which has been fully reserved.

On December 9, 2022, the Company received a suspension of payment notification from Covent Bridge Group, a Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services contractor, for IMAC Regeneration Center of Kentucky. On December 22, 2022, the Company responded to the payment suspension with a Rebuttal of Notice. The suspension of payment will remain in effect until the Rebuttal of Notice is answered. The Company provided medical records for 10 beneficiaries. Neither CMS nor Covent Bridge have responded to the Company regarding the records, although they initiated the Kepro audit noted in the following paragraph. As of December 31, 2023, the payment suspension resulted in a recoupment balance of approximately $90,000of Medicare accounts receivable which has been fully reserved.

75

On October 2, 2023, the Company received notice from Kepro, "Initial Sanction Notice of Failure in a Substantial Number of Cases". Kepro has recommended a Corrective Action Plan (CAP). (i) Perform a root cause analysis (RCA) and describe the underlying cause of the failure. Submit a copy of the RCA performed. (ii) Identify goals (desired outcomes) of the CAP. These goals must be measurable-containing a numerator and denominator-attainable, and meaningful. (iii) Explain how the process(es) will be created or modified to correct the underlying root cause. (iv) Explain how the process(es) will be implemented, including time frames for implementation. (v) Explain how the implemented process(es) and outcomes will be monitored and reported. (vi) Identify the person who will be responsible for monitoring the CAP's specified time frame. The Company intends on complying with the recommendations of the CAP. In addition, after further review, the Company will appeal the recommendation and outcomes of the audit by Kepro. A meeting with Kepro was conducted on November 20, 2023 to review findings, CAP, and appeal of findings. The meeting resulted in a CAP and communication to medical providers regarding the audit. There was no financial recoupment request.

Other smaller denials the Company is appealing aggregate approximately $25,000as of December 31, 2023.

At this stage of the appeals process, based on the information currently available to the Company, the Company is unable to predict the timing and ultimate outcomes of these matters and therefore is unable to estimate the range of possible loss. Any potential loss may be classified as errors and omissions for which insurance coverage was in place during a majority of the years being evaluated.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded a provision for any of these claims, as management does not believe that an estimate of a possible loss or range of loss can reasonably be made at this time.

Note 14 - Subsequent Events

On April 10, 2024, we entered into a series of transactions including the exchange of the Company's outstanding Series B-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001per share (the "Series B-1 Preferred Stock") and Series B-2 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001per share (the "Series B-2 Preferred Stock" and, collectively with the Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the "Series B Preferred Stock"), for new preferred stock, the exchange of the Company's outstanding warrants (the "Existing Warrants") for new warrants, and the sale of new preferred stock and warrants. All such transactions were consummated on April 11, 2024.

Exchange

On April 11, 2024, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (each, an "Exchange Agreement") with holders of Series B Preferred Stock, pursuant to which the holders would exchange (i) 4,550shares of Series B Preferred Stock, with a conversion price of $1.84, for 4,750shares of Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001per share, of the Company (the "Series C-1 Preferred Stock"), with a conversion price of $2.561and (ii) their Existing Warrants, with an exercise price of $1.84, for new warrants, with an exercise price of $2.561, (the "Exchange Warrants" and, together with the Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock, the "Exchange Securities"), on a one-for-one basis. Such exchanges were made without any additional consideration having been paid by the Holders. All of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and all outstanding Existing Warrants were terminated upon the exchange. If at the time of exercise of the Exchange Warrants, there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of the Common Stock underlying the Exchange Warrants, such Exchange Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to their terms.

PIPE Financing

On April 10, 2024, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with accredited investors (the "Investors"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the Investors agreed to purchase, 1,276shares of Series C-2 convertible preferred stock (the "Series C-2 Preferred Stock" and, together with the Series C-1 Preferred Stock, the "Series C Preferred Stock"), at a price of $1,000per share or an aggregate $1,276,000, and 498,243warrants , with an exercise price of $2.561(the "PIPE Warrants" and, together with the Exchange Warrants, the "Warrants"), to purchase our common stock for aggregate cash proceeds (after giving effect to the Settlement and Release payment of $376,000 (as discussed below) of $900,000. If at the time of exercise of the PIPE Warrants, there is no effective registration statement registering the shares of the Common Stock underlying the PIPE Warrants, such PIPE Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis pursuant to their terms.

Rights and Preferences of Series C Preferred Stock

The rights and preferences of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock and the Series C-2 Convertible Stock are identical in all material respects; however, the Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock was issued in exchange for Series B Preferred Stock without the payment of any additional consideration and, for the purpose of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, ownership of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock shall tack back to December 20, 2024.

76

Authorized; Stated Value. The Company authorized 4,750shares of Series C-1 Preferred Stock and 5,376shares of Series C-2 Preferred Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000(subject to increase upon any capitalization of dividends - See "Dividends" below).

Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock, with respect to the payment of dividends, distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, ranks senior to all capital stock of the Company unless the Required Holders (as defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) consent to the creation of other capital stock of the Company that is senior or equal in rank to the Series C Preferred Stock.

Liquidation Preference. In the event of a Liquidation Event, as defined in the certificates of designations for the Series C-1 Preferred Stock and the Series C-2 Preferred Stock, the holders thereof shall be entitled to receive payment in an amount per share equal to the greater of (A) 110% of the sum of the stated value of the share plus any amount owed to the holder by the Company in connection with the share, including all declared and unpaid dividends thereon, on the date of such payment and (B) the amount per share such holders would receive if such shares had been converted into Common Stock immediately prior to the date of such payment; provided, however that if the funds available for such payment to the holders of Series C-1 Preferred Stock, the Series C-2 Preferred Stock, and any other capital stock of the Company ranking on par with them for liquidation purposes are insufficient, all such holders shall be paid proportionally to their holdings out of available funds.

Dividends. Dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock equal to 10% per annum (subject to adjustment) will begin to accrue upon issuance and, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary equity conditions, will be payable in shares of Common Stock, provided, however, that the Company may elect to capitalize dividends in lieu of issuing shares of Common Stock by increasing the stated value of each applicable share of Series C Preferred Stock. If the Company fails to properly satisfy such equity conditions, such dividends will be capitalized for each holder of Series C Preferred Stock (unless such holder waives such failure in order to receive shares of Common Stock as payment for such dividend). Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless the Company obtains the Stockholder Approval (see "Stockholder Approval" below), all dividends shall be capitalized dividends.

Conversion Rights

Conversion at Option of Holder. Each holder of Series C Preferred Stock may convert all, or any part, of their outstanding Series C Preferred Stock, at any time at such holder's option, into shares of Common Stock (which converted shares of Common Stock are referred to as "Conversion Shares" herein) based on the fixed "Conversion Price" of $2.561.

Adjustments to Conversion Price. The Conversion Price is subject to proportional adjustment upon the occurrence of any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination and/or similar transactions. Although the Series C Preferred Stock does not initially have antidilution protection for issuances below the conversion price then in effect in subsequent placements, if the Company obtains the Stockholder Approval (see "Stockholder Approval" below), thereafter the Series C Preferred Stock shall have full ratchet antidilution protection. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Principal Market, the Company may, at any time, with the written consent of the Required Holders, lower the fixed conversion price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the Company's board of directors.

Mandatory Conversion. If the closing price of the Common Stock on the principal trading market, if any, in which the shares of Common Stock then trade (the "Principal Market"), equals at least 300% of the Conversion Price for twenty (20 consecutive trading days and no Equity Conditions Failure exists, the Company may require each holder of Series C Preferred Stock, on a pro rata basis among all such holders, to convert all, or any number, of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock based on the then-current Conversion Price.

77

Alternate Conversion Upon a Triggering Event. Solely if the Company has obtained the Stockholder Approval (see "Stockholder Approval" below), following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Series C Certificates of Designations), each holder may alternatively elect to convert the Series C Preferred Stock at the "Alternate Conversion Price" equal to the lesser of (A) the Conversion Price, and (B) the greater of (x) the floor price of $0.5122, and (y) 80% of the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock during the 5 consecutive trading days immediately prior to such conversion.

Company Redemption. At any time the Company shall have the right to redeem in cash all, but not less than all, the shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding at the greater of (x) 110% of the amount of shares being redeemed, and (y) the equity value of the Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock. The equity value of the Common Stock underlying the Series C Preferred Stock is calculated using the greatest closing sale price of the Common Stock on any trading day immediately preceding the date the Company notifies the holders of its election to redeem and the date the Company makes the entire payment required.

Voting Rights. The holders of the Series C Preferred Stock have no voting power and no right to vote on any matter at any time, either as a separate series or class or together with any other series or class of share of capital stock, and shall not be entitled to call a meeting of such holders for any purpose nor shall they be entitled to participate in any meeting of the holders of Common Stock, except as provided in the Series C Certificates of Designations (or as otherwise required by applicable law).

Stockholder Approval

The Company has agreed to seek the approval of the Company's stockholders to the issuance of all of the securities issuable pursuant to the Series C Preferred Stock and the Warrants in compliance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market (the "Stockholder Approval"), which, if obtained, would permit the issuance of more than 20% of the outstanding capital stock of the Company at a price less than $0.561, by no later than July 31, 2024. If the Company fails to obtain the Stockholder Approval, the Company has agreed to cause an additional meeting to be held to seek Stockholder Approval on or prior to October 31, 2024 and, if not obtained, semi-annually thereafter.

Settlement and Release Agreements

In connection with the exchange and PIPE financing transactions, each holder of Series B-1 Preferred Stock entered into a Settlement and Release Agreement with the Company, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay to each such holder a cash amount equal to the damages claimed to have been suffered by such holder upon the attempted conversion and then unwinding of such conversion of shares of such holders Series B-1 Preferred Stock, in exchanged for a release by the holder in favor of the Company of all claims related to such unwinding. All amounts paid pursuant to the Settlement and Release Agreements were reinvested, in full, into the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Registration Rights

In connection with the exchange and PIPE financing transactions, the Investors received registration rights customary for such transactions.

Loan to Theralink

On April 11, 2024, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Theralink Credit Agreement") with Theralink Technologies, Inc. ("Theralink"), pursuant to which Theralink may borrow from the Company up to $1,000,000(the "Term Loans"), with an initial borrowing of $350,000made on April 12, 2024. The Term Loans have a maturity date of October 12, 2024and bear interest at 9% per annum for interest to be paid in cash and 11% per annum for any portion of the accrued interest that is paid in kind, which "PIK Interest" will be added to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans. The Term Loans are secured by a first priority interest, subject to permitted liens in accordance with the Theralink Credit Agreement, in the assets of Theralink and its subsidiaries pursuant to a Security and Pledge Agreement dated April 12, 2024 made by Theralink and each of its subsidiaries party thereto as Grantors, in favor of the Company (the "Security and Pledge Agreement").

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(1) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As further discussed below, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, because of certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective as of December 31, 2023, due to material weaknesses discussed below.

(2) Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013), our management concluded that, because our internal controls over financial report were not effective as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 12a-15E and 15d-15E under the Exchange Act were not effective as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.

The material weaknesses relate to the absence of in-house accounting personnel with the ability to properly account for complex transactions and a lack of separation of duties between accounting and other functions.

We hired a consulting firm to advise on technical issues related to U.S. GAAP as related to the maintenance of our accounting books and records and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Although we are aware of the risks associated with not having dedicated accounting personnel, we are also at an early stage in the development of our business. We anticipate expanding our accounting functions with dedicated staff and improving our internal accounting procedures and separation of duties when we can absorb the costs of such expansion and improvement with additional capital resources. In the meantime, management will continue to observe and assess our internal accounting function and make necessary improvements whenever they may be required. If our remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weakness, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements, and we could be required to restate our financial results. In addition, if we are unable to successfully remediate this material weakness and if we are unable to produce accurate and timely financial statements, our stock price may be adversely affected and we may be unable to maintain compliance with applicable stock exchange listing requirements.

(3) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct ("Ethics Code") that applies to all our officers, directors, employees, and contractors. The Ethics Code contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics and compliance with applicable law, and is intended to qualify as a "code of ethics" within the meaning of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 406 of Regulation S-K. Day-to-day compliance with the Ethics Code is overseen by the Company compliance officer appointed by our Board of Directors. If we make any substantive amendments to the Ethics Code or grant any waiver from a provision of the Ethics Code to any director or executive officer, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website at https://ir.imacregeneration.com.

Board Composition

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. The number of directors is determined by our board of directors, subject to the terms of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. Our board of directors currently consists of five members.

82

Director Independence

Or common stock and warrants are listed for trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market. Under Nasdaq rules, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company's board of directors. In addition, Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company's audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees must be independent. Under Nasdaq rules, a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, in the opinion of that company's board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee: (i) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries; or (ii) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our board of directors undertook a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Evans, Pruitt and Sucoff, representing a majority of our directors, do not have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is "independent" as that term is defined under Nasdaq rules. In making these determinations, our board of directors considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

Board Committees

Our board of directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Under Nasdaq rules, the membership of the audit committee is required to consist entirely of independent directors, subject to applicable phase-in periods. The following is a brief description of our committees.

Audit committee. In accordance with our audit committee charter, our audit committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting processes and our internal controls over financial reporting; evaluates the independent public accounting firm's qualifications, independence and performance; engages and provides for the compensation of the independent public accounting firm; approves the retention of the independent public accounting firm to perform any proposed permissible non-audit services; reviews our consolidated financial statements; reviews our critical accounting policies and estimates and internal controls over financial reporting; and discusses with management and the independent registered public accounting firm the results of the annual audit and the reviews of our quarterly consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit committee members meet the requirements for financial literacy under the current requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. In addition, the board of directors has determined that Michael D. Pruitt is qualified as an audit committee financial expert within the meaning of SEC regulations. We have made this determination based on information received by our board of directors, including questionnaires provided by the members of our audit committee. The audit committee is composed of Messrs. Pruitt (Chairman), Evans and Sucoff.

Compensation committee. In accordance with our compensation committee charter, our compensation committee reviews and recommends policies relating to compensation and benefits of our officers and employees, including reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and other senior officers, evaluating the performance of these officers in light of those goals and objectives and setting compensation of these officers based on such evaluations. The compensation committee also administers the issuance of stock options and other awards under our equity-based incentive plans. We believe that the composition of our compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our compensation committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. We intend to comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to us. The compensation committee is composed of Messrs. Evans (Chairman) and Pruitt.

Nominating and governance committee. In accordance with our nominating and governance committee charter, our nominating and governance committee recommends to the board of directors nominees for election as directors, and meets as necessary to review director candidates and nominees for election as directors; recommends members for each committee of the board; oversee corporate governance standards and compliance with applicable listing and regulatory requirements; develops and recommends to the board governance principles applicable to the company; and oversee the evaluation of the board and its committees. We believe that the composition of our nominating and governance committee meets the requirements for independence under, and the functioning of our compensation committee complies with, any applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Nasdaq and SEC rules and regulations. We intend to comply with future requirements to the extent they become applicable to us. The nominating and governance committee is composed of Messrs. Sucoff (Chairman) and Evans.

83

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our compensation committee is an executive officer or employee of our company. None of our executive officers serves as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving on our board of directors or compensation committee.

Limitations on Director and Officer Liability and Indemnification

Our certificate of incorporation limits the liability of our directors to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law. Delaware law provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except liability for:

any breach of their duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders;
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions; or
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws provide that we are required to indemnify our directors and officers, in each case to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Any repeal of or modification to our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws may not adversely affect any right or protection of a director or officer for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director or officer occurring prior to such amendment or repeal. Our bylaws will also provide that we shall advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in connection with their services to us, regardless of whether our bylaws permit such indemnification.

We intend to enter into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, provide that we will indemnify our directors and executive officers for certain expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of such person's services as one of our directors or executive officers, or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers.

84

The limitation of liability and indemnification provisions that are contained in our certificate of incorporation and our bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder's investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions. There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving one of our directors or executive officers as to which indemnification is required or permitted, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.

The Board of Directors' Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors, as a whole and also at the committee level, has an active role in managing enterprise risk. The members of our Board of Directors participate in our risk oversight assessment by receiving regular reports from members of senior management and the Company compliance officer appointed by our Board of Directors on areas of material risk to us, including operational, financial, legal and regulatory, and strategic and reputational risks. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Audit Committee oversees management of financial risks, as well as our policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Nominating and Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of our Board of Directors and potential conflicts of interest. Members of the management team report directly to our Board of Directors or the appropriate committee. The directors then use this information to understand, identify, manage, and mitigate risk. Once a committee has considered the reports from management, the chairperson will report on the matter to our full Board of Directors at the next meeting of the Board of Directors, or sooner if deemed necessary. This enables our Board of Directors and its committees to effectively carry out its risk oversight role.

Communications with our Board of Directors

Any stockholder may send correspondence to our Board of Directors, c/o IMAC Holdings, Inc., 3401 Mallory Lane, Suite 100, Franklin, Tennessee 37067 and our telephone number is (844) 266-IMAC (4622). Our management will review all correspondence addressed to our Board of Directors, or any individual director, and forward all such communications to our Board of Directors or the appropriate director prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting of our Board of Directors following the receipt of the communication, unless the corporate secretary decides the communication is more suitably directed to Company management and forwards the communication to Company management. Our management will summarize all stockholder correspondence directed to our Board of Directors that is not forwarded to our Board of Directors and will make such correspondence available to our Board of Directors for its review at the request of any member of our Board of Directors.

85

Indebtedness of Directors and Executive Officers

None of our directors or executive officers or their respective associates or affiliates is currently indebted to us.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and holders of more than 10% of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our securities (Forms 3, 4 and 5) with the SEC. To the best of our knowledge, based solely on a review of the Section 16(a) reports and written statements from executive officers and directors, for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, all required reports of executive officers, directors and holders of more than 10% of our equity securities were filed on time, except for any such reports which may have been filed late due to administrative delays.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our directors and executive officers.

2018 Incentive Compensation Plan

Under our 2018 Incentive Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), adopted by our board of directors and holders of a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock in May 2018, 2,000,000 shares of common stock (subject to certain adjustments) are reserved for issuance upon exercise of stock options and grants of other equity awards. The Plan is designed to serve as an incentive for attracting and retaining qualified and motivated employees, officers, directors, consultants and other persons who provide services to us. The compensation committee of our board of directors administers and interprets the Plan and is authorized to grant stock options and other equity awards thereunder to all eligible employees of our company, including non-employee consultants to our company and directors.

The Plan provides for the granting of "incentive stock options" (as defined in Section 422 of the Code), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock, dividend equivalents, bonus stock and awards in lieu of cash compensation, other stock-based awards and performance awards. Options may be granted under the Plan on such terms and at such prices as determined by the compensation committee of the board, except that the per share exercise price of the stock options cannot be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. Each option will be exercisable after the period or periods specified in the stock option agreement, but all stock options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the Plan are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The compensation committee of the board has the authority to amend or terminate the Plan, provided that no amendment shall be made without stockholder approval if such stockholder approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement. Unless terminated sooner, the Plan will terminate ten years from its effective date.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Policies and Procedures for Transactions with Related Persons

Our board of directors intends to adopt a written related person transaction policy to set forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. Related persons include any executive officer, director or a holder of more than 5% of our common stock, including any of their immediate family members and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. Related person transactions refers to any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which (i) we were or are to be a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and (iii) a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. Related person transactions include, without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness, and employment by us of a related person, in each case subject to certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.

We expect that the policy will provide that in any related person transaction, our audit committee and board of directors will consider all of the available material facts and circumstances of the transaction, including: the direct and indirect interests of the related persons; in the event the related person is a director (or immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated), the impact that the transaction will have on a director's independence; the risks, costs and benefits of the transaction to us; and whether any alternative transactions or sources for comparable services or products are available. After considering all such facts and circumstances, our audit committee and board of directors will determine whether approval or ratification of the related person transaction is in our best interests. For example, if our audit committee determines that the proposed terms of a related person transaction are reasonable and at least as favorable as could have been obtained from unrelated third parties, it will recommend to our board of directors that such transaction be approved or ratified. In addition, if a related person transaction will compromise the independence of one of our directors, our audit committee may recommend that our board of directors reject the transaction if it could affect our ability to comply with securities laws and regulations or Nasdaq listing requirements.

Each transaction described in this section was entered into prior to the adoption of our audit committee charter and the foregoing policy proposal.

Corporate Conversion

Prior to June 1, 2018, we were a Kentucky limited liability company named IMAC Holdings, LLC. Effective June 1, 2018, we converted into a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory merger (the "Corporate Conversion") and changed our name to IMAC Holdings, Inc. All of our outstanding membership interests were exchanged on a proportional basis into shares of common stock of IMAC Holdings, Inc.

91

Related Party Transactions

On June 1, 2018, we entered into a note payable to the Edward S. Bredniak Revocable Trust, the trustee of which is Edward S. Bredniak, a former director of our company, in the amount of up to $2,000,000. An existing note payable with this entity with an outstanding balance of $379,675.60 was combined into a new note payable. The note carried an interest rate of 10% per annum and all outstanding balances were due and payable 13 months after the closing of this offering. On June 28, 2019, we entered into an amendment to this note (the "Amendment"). Among other things, the Amendment provided for the extension of the maturity of the note to January 5, 2021, reduced the principal amount of the note from $2,000,000 to $1,750,000, corrected the name of the lender under the note from The Edward S. Bredniak Revocable Trust u/a dated 8/14/2015 to Edward S. Bredniak, and provided for the payment of any outstanding amounts under the note which exceed $1,750,000 as of the date of the Amendment. The proceeds of this note were used to satisfy ongoing working capital needs, expenses related to the preparation for our initial public offering, equipment and construction costs related to new clinic locations, and potential business combination and transaction expenses. In November 2020, we entered into an amendment to this note (the "Amendment 2.0") that provided for the extension of the maturity of the note to January 5, 2022. This note was paid in full on March 29, 2021.

Effective October 2022, the Company signed an agreement for The Molo Agency to provide marketing services including project management and reporting, content management and social media management. The MOLO Agency is owned by Maurice Evans, an independent Board Member of the Company. The Company paid $0 and $27,000 to The MOLO Agency for services provided in 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

Director Independence

Our Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Evans, Pruitt and Sucoff, representing a majority of our directors, are independent directors (as currently defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ listing rules). In determining the independence of our directors, the Board of Directors considered all transactions in which the Company and any director had any interest, including those discussed above. The independent directors meet as often as necessary to fulfill their responsibilities, including meeting at least twice annually in executive session without the presence of non-independent directors and management.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

On December 28, 2023, Cherry Bekaert LLP resigned as the independent registered public accounting firm of the Company. Neither the Company's board of directors nor the audit committee of the Company's board of directors took part in Cherry Bekaert's decision to resign.

The report of Cherry Bekaert regarding the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 , and subsequent interim periods through the date of Cherry Bekaert's resignation, there were no disagreements with Cherry Bekaert on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Cherry Bekaert, would have caused it to make reference to such disagreement in its reports.

The audit committee of the Board of the Company conducted a search to determine the Company's independent registered public accounting firm following the resignation of Cherry Bekaert LLP. On February 8, 2024, the Committee approved the appointment of Salberg & Company, P.A. as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, subject to satisfactory completion of standard engagement acceptance procedures, which were subsequently completed.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding Salberg's engagement, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Salberg regarding (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated financial statements, and Salberg did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, or (2) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as that term is used in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) on accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures or a "reportable event" (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

93

The following table sets forth the aggregate accounting fees paid by us for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022. The below audit fees were paid to the firm Salberg & Company, PA for the year ended December 31, 2023 and Cherry Bekaert, LLP for the year ended December 31, 2022. All non-audit related services in the table were pre-approved and/or ratified by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Audit related fees - 74,000 45,240
Total $ 60,000 $ 239,000 $ 262,240

Types of Fees Explanation

Audit Fees. Audit fees were incurred for accounting services rendered for the audit of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and reviews of quarterly consolidated financial statements.

Audit Related Fees. We incurred fees in connection with accounting reviews for S-4 filings and agreed-upon procedures.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Services by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Section 10A(i)(1) of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules require that all auditing and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our principal accountants be approved in advance by the Audit Committee of the Board. Pursuant to Section 10A(i)(3) of the Exchange Act and related SEC rules, the Audit Committee has established procedures by which the Chairman of the Audit Committee may pre-approve such services provided that the pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services to be rendered and the Chairman reports the details of the services to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

The audit committee has considered the services provided by Salberg & Company, PA and Cherry Bekaert LLP as disclosed above in the captions "audit fees" and has concluded that such services are compatible with the independence of Salberg & Company, PA and Cherry Bekaert LLP as our principal accountants for the year ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Our Board has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors' independence.
