COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND SYSTEMS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented. All such adjustments are considered of a normal recurring nature. Quarterly and interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
Certain footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of Computer Programs and Systems, Inc. ("CPSI" or the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements of CPSI include the accounts of TruBridge, LLC ("TruBridge"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPSI. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
2.     REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, principally those required by the Software topic and Revenue Recognition subtopic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") and those prescribed by the SEC.
The Company's revenue is generated from three sources:
System Sales - the sale of information systems, which includes perpetual software licenses, conversion, installation and training services, hardware and peripherals;
Support and Maintenance - the provision of system support services, which includes software application support, hardware maintenance, continuing education, "Software as a Service" (or "SaaS") services, and forms and supplies; and
Business Management, Consulting and Managed IT Services - the provision of business management services, which includes electronic billing, statement processing, payroll processing, accounts receivable management, contract management and insurance services, as well as Internet service provider ("ISP") services and consulting and managed IT services (collectively, "other professional IT services").
System Sales, Software Application Support and Hardware Maintenance
The Company enters into contractual obligations to sell hardware, perpetual software licenses, conversion, installation and training services, and software application support and hardware maintenance services. On average, the Company is able to complete a system installation in three to four weeks. The methods employed by the Company to recognize revenue, which are discussed by element below, achieve results materially consistent with the provisions of Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, due to the relatively short period during which there are multiple undelivered elements, the relatively small amount of non-software related elements in the system sale arrangements, and the limited number of contracts in-process at the end of each reporting period. The Company recognizes revenue on the elements noted above as follows:
Hardware – We recognize revenue for hardware upon shipment. The selling price of hardware is based on management’s best estimate of selling price, which consists of cost plus a targeted margin.
Perpetual software licenses and conversion, installation and training services – The selling price of perpetual software licenses and conversion, installation and training services is based on management’s best estimate of selling price. In determining management’s best estimate of selling price, we consider the following: (1) competitor pricing, (2) supply and demand of installation staff, (3) overall economic conditions, and (4) our

Table of Contents

pricing practices as they relate to discounts. With the exception of certain arrangements with extended payment terms that were entered into in 2012 and that are not comparable to our historical or current arrangements (see Note 9), the method of recognizing revenue for the perpetual license of the associated modules included in the arrangement, and the related conversion, installation and training services over the term the services are performed, is on a module by module basis as the related perpetual licenses are delivered and the respective conversion, installation and training for each specific module is completed, as this is representative of the pattern of provision of these services.
Software application support and hardware maintenance – We have established vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of the fair value of our software application support and hardware maintenance services by reference to the price our customers are required to pay for the services when sold separately via renewals. Support and maintenance revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the maintenance contract, which is generally three to five years.
SaaS, ISP and Other Professional IT Services
The Company accounts for SaaS services in accordance with the requirements of the Hosting Arrangement section under the Software topic and Revenue Recognition subtopic of the Codification. The Codification states that the software elements of SaaS services should not be accounted for as a hosting arrangement "if the customer has the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty and it is feasible for the customer to either run the software on its own hardware or contract with another party unrelated to the vendor to host the software." Each SaaS contract entered into by the Company includes a system purchase and buyout clause, and this clause specifies the total amount of the system buyout. In addition, a clause is included in the contract which states that should the system be bought out by the customer, the customer would be required to enter into a general support agreement (for post-contract support services) for the remainder of the original SaaS term. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that SaaS customers do not have the right to take possession of the system without significant penalty (i.e., the purchase price of the system), resulting in the determination that these contracts are service contracts for which revenue is recognized when the services are performed.
The Company will occasionally provide ISP and other professional IT services. We consider these services to be non-software elements. The selling price of these services is based on third-party evidence of selling price of similar services. Revenue from this element is recognized as the services are performed.
Business Management Services
Business management services consist of electronic billing, statement processing, payroll processing, accounts receivable management, contract management and insurance services. While business management service arrangements are contracts separate from the system sale and support and maintenance contracts, these contracts are sometimes executed within a short time frame of each other. The amount of the total arrangement allocated to these services is based on VSOE of fair value by reference to the rate at which our customers renew as well as the rate at which the services are sold to customers when the business management services agreement is not executed within a short time frame of the system sale and support and maintenance contracts. If VSOE of fair value does not exist for these services, we allocate arrangement consideration based on third-party evidence ("TPE") of selling price or, if neither VSOE nor TPE is available, estimated selling price. Because the pricing is transaction based (per unit pricing), customers are billed and revenue recognized as services are performed based on transaction levels.

5.     INVESTMENTS
The Company accounts for investments in accordance with FASB Codification topic, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. Accordingly, investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The Company’s management determines the appropriate classification of investments in fixed income securities at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates the classification at each balance sheet date. An average cost method is used for purposes of determining the cost of investments sold.
Investments are comprised of the following at June 30, 2014:

Our investment portfolio, including those securities in unrealized loss positions at June 30, 2014, is comprised almost entirely of investment-grade corporate and government debt securities. The Company does not intend to sell the investments that are in an unrealized loss position, and it is not likely that the Company will be required to sell any investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis. As a result, the Company has determined that the unrealized losses are deemed to be temporary impairments as of June 30, 2014. The Company believes that the unrealized losses

generally are caused by liquidity discounts and increases in risk premiums required by market participants rather than an adverse change in cash flows or a fundamental weakness in the credit quality of the issuer or underlying assets.
6.     NET INCOME PER SHARE
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") data for its common stock. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to stockholders of the Company by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the net income attributable to stockholders of the Company and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, including awards under stock-based compensation arrangements.
The Company's unvested restricted stock awards (see Note 8) are considered participating securities under FASB Codification Topic, Earnings Per Share, because they entitle holders to non-forfeitable rights to dividends until the awards vest or are forfeited. When a company has a security that qualifies as a "participating security," the Codification requires the use of the two-class method when computing basic EPS. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. In determining the amount of net income to allocate to common stockholders, income is allocated to both common stock and participating securities based on their respective weighted average shares outstanding for the period, with net income attributable to common stockholders ultimately equaling net income less net income attributable to participating securities. Diluted EPS for the Company's common stock is computed using the more dilutive of the two-class method or the treasury stock method.
The following is a calculation of the basic and diluted EPS for the Company's common stock, including a reconciliation between net income and net income attributable to common stockholders:

During 2014, performance share awards were issued to certain executive officers and key employees of the Company which will result in a grant of restricted stock if the predefined performance criteria are met. The awards contain an aggregate target of 46,541 shares, none of which have been included in the calculation of diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 because the related threshold award performance level has not been achieved as of June 30, 2014. See Note 8.

7.     INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB’s Codification topic, Income Taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from the temporary differences in the recognition of income and expenses for tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established when the Company believes that it is more likely than not that some portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are comprised of the following at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 were 35.6% and 35.5%, respectively, compared to 36.1% and 34.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The federal research and development tax credit expired effective December 31, 2011, but was retroactively extended for amounts incurred from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013, when the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the "ATRA") was signed into law in January 2013. No tax benefit from these credits was recorded during 2012 as applicable accounting standards require that such benefits are to be recorded in the period that the legislation is enacted. Instead, the Company recognized the full net benefit for the federal research and development tax credit for the entire 2012 fiscal year during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, in addition to estimated amounts related to the first and second quarters of 2013. As the federal research and development tax credit, as extended by the ATRA, expired effective December 31, 2013 and had yet to be extended for

fiscal year 2014 as of June 30, 2014, no tax benefit from these credits has been recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014.
The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $1,343,379 related to uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2014 under the provisions of FASB Codification topic, Income Taxes, which is recorded in income taxes payable within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2014, $193,690 of accrued interest related to such positions has been recorded. The federal returns for the tax years 2004 through 2009 are currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service, primarily in relation to research credits and domestic production activities deduction amounts claimed on those returns, as amended, by the Company. The federal returns for tax years 2010 through 2012 remain open to examination, and the tax years 2006 through 2012 remain open to examination by certain other taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.
8.     STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s or non-employee director’s requisite service period.

The Company's stock-based compensation awards are in the form of restricted stock and performance share awards made pursuant to the Company's 2005 Restricted Stock Plan, 2012 Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors, and 2014 Incentive Plan (the "Plans"). As of June 30, 2014, there was $12,843,374 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans.
Restricted Stock
The Company grants restricted stock to executive officers, certain key employees and non-employee directors under the Plans with the fair value of the awards representing the fair value of the common stock on the date the restricted stock is granted. Shares of restricted stock generally vest in equal annual installments over the applicable vesting period, which ranges from one to five years. The Company records expenses for these grants on a straight-line basis over the applicable vesting periods.
A summary of restricted stock activity under the the Plans for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows:

Performance Share Awards
In 2014, the Company began to grant performance share awards to executive officers and certain key employees under the 2014 Incentive Plan. The number of shares earned is determined at the end of each performance period, based on the actual performance criteria predetermined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at the time of grant. If the performance criteria are met, the award results in a grant of shares of restricted stock, which are then subject to time-based vesting requirements pursuant to which the shares of restricted stock vest in equal annual installments over the applicable vesting period, which is generally three years for restricted stock issued pursuant to performance share awards.
In the event that the Company's financial performance meets the predetermined target for the performance criteria, the Company will grant each award recipient the number of restricted shares equal to the target award in the individual's underlying performance share award agreement. In the event the financial results of the Company exceed the predetermined target, additional shares up to the maximum award may be granted. In the event the financial results of the Company fall below the predetermined target, a reduced number of shares may be granted. If the financial results of the Company fall below the threshold performance level, no shares will be granted.
The recipients of performance share awards do not receive dividends or possess voting rights during the performance period and, accordingly, the fair value of the performance share awards is the quoted market value of the Company stock on the grant date less the present value of the expected dividends not received during the relevant period. Expense is recognized using the accelerated attribution (graded vesting) method over the period beginning on the date the Company determines that it is probable that the performance criteria will be achieved and ending on the last day of the vesting period for the restricted stock issued in satisfaction of such awards. In the event the Company determines it is no longer probable that the minimum performance level will be achieved, all previously recognized compensation expense related to the applicable awards is reversed in the period such a determination is made.
A summary of performance share award activity under the 2014 Incentive Plan for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is as follows, based on the target award amounts set forth in the performance share award agreements:

9.     FINANCING RECEIVABLES
Short-Term Payment Plans
The Company has sold information and patient care systems to certain healthcare providers under short-term payment plans, which typically have expected terms from 3 to 12 months. These receivables, included in the current portion of financing receivables, were comprised of the following on June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Sales-Type Leases
Additionally, the Company leases its information and patient care systems to certain healthcare providers under sales-type leases expiring in various years through 2017. These receivables typically have terms from two to five years, bear interest at various rates, and are usually collateralized by a security interest in the underlying assets. Since the Company has a history of successfully collecting amounts due under the original payment terms of these extended payment arrangements without making any concessions to its customers, the Company satisfies the requirement for revenue recognition. The Company’s history with these types of extended payment term arrangements supports management’s assertion that revenues are fixed and determinable and collection is probable.
The components of these lease receivables were as follows on June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

The Company’s financing receivables are comprised of a single portfolio segment, as the balances are all derived from short-term payment plan arrangements and sales-type leasing arrangements within our target market of rural and community hospitals. The Company evaluates the credit quality of its financing receivables based on a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, customer collection experience, economic conditions, the customer’s financial condition, and known risk characteristics impacting the respective customer base of rural and community hospitals, the most notable of which relate to enacted and potential changes in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates as rural and community hospitals typically generate a significant portion of their revenues and related cash flows from beneficiaries of these programs. In addition to specific account identification, the Company utilizes historical collection experience to establish the allowance for credit losses. Financing receivables are written off only after the Company has exhausted all collection efforts. The Company has been successful in collecting its financing receivables and considers the credit quality of such arrangements to be good, especially as the underlying assets act as collateral for the receivables.

Customer payments are considered past due if a scheduled payment is not received within contractually agreed upon terms. To facilitate customer collection and credit monitoring efforts, financing receivable amounts are invoiced and reclassified to trade accounts receivable when they become due, with all invoiced amounts placed on nonaccrual status. As a result, all past due amounts related to the Company’s financing receivables are included in trade accounts receivable in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following is an analysis of the age of financing receivables amounts (excluding short-term payment plans) that have been reclassified to trade accounts receivable and were past due as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

From time to time, the Company may agree to alternative payment terms outside of the terms of the original financing receivable agreement due to customer difficulties in achieving the original terms. In general, such alternative payment arrangements do not result in a re-aging of the related receivables. Rather, payments pursuant to any alternative payment arrangements are applied to the already outstanding invoices beginning with the oldest outstanding invoices as the payments are received.
Because amounts are reclassified to trade accounts receivable when they become due, there are no past due amounts included within financing receivables in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company utilizes an aging of trade accounts receivable as the primary credit quality indicator for its financing receivables, which is facilitated by the reclassification of customer payment amounts to trade accounts receivable when they become due. The table below categorizes customer financing receivable balances (excluding short term payment plans), none of which are considered past due, according to the age of the oldest related payment outstanding within trade accounts receivable:

First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans
During 2012, the Company entered into multiple customer license agreements with payment terms requiring the customer to remit to the Company incentive payments (not to exceed the remaining balance of the contract price) received under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the "ARRA") for adoption of qualifying electronic health records ("EHRs"), with only nominal payment amounts required until the customer’s receipt of such incentive payments ("First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans"). If no such incentive payments are received by the customer or if such payments are not sufficient to pay the remaining balance under the arrangement, payments continue at contracted nominal amounts until the balance of the contract price is paid in full. Because of the significant difference in the underlying economics of these arrangements compared to our historical financing receivables, management has determined that these arrangements are not comparable to historical arrangements. In accordance with the Software topic and Revenue Recognition subtopic of the Codification, the Company recognizes revenue related to these arrangements as the amounts become due. Anticipated future cash flows from these First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans are excluded from the Company’s financing receivables and deferred revenue in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Direct, incremental costs in the amount of $77,844, included as a component of prepaid expenses and other in the

accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, have been capitalized as of June 30, 2014 related to these arrangements.
Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012, we ceased offering First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans to our customers, opting instead for license agreements with payment terms that provide us with greater visibility into and control over the customer's meaningful use attestation process and significantly reducing the maximum timeframe over which customers must satisfy their full payment obligations in purchasing our system ("Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans"). As the overall payment period durations of the Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans are consistent with that of our historical system sale financing arrangements, revenues under the Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans are recognized upon installation of our EHR solution. Consistent with the terms of the respective agreements, all related amounts are included as a component of financing receivables, current portion, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and as a component of short-term payment plans within this Note 9.
10.     COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
From time to time, the Company is involved in routine litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business. Management does not expect this to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.
11.     FAIR VALUE
FASB Codification topic, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Codification does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The Codification requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
The fair values of the Company’s available-for-sale securities are based on matrix pricing for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, which uses observable market-based inputs (such as benchmark yields) in addition to quoted prices in active markets to derive fair values. As a result, these inputs are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. We generally apply fair value techniques on a non-recurring basis associated with (1) valuing potential impairment loss related to financing receivables accounted for pursuant to Codification topic, Leases, and (2) valuing potential impairment loss related to long-lived assets accounted for pursuant to Codification topic, Property, Plant and Equipment, when events or circumstances indicate a possible impairment.

12.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
New Accounting Standards Adopted in 2014
There were no new standards required to be adopted during the six months ended June 30, 2014 that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
New Accounting Standards Yet to be Adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and International Financial Reporting Standards. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes the most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016, which is effective for the Company as of the first quarter of our fiscal year ending December 31, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the implementation of this standard will have on its financial statements.

Additional information concerning these and other factors which could cause differences between forward-looking statements and future actual results is discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Background
CPSI was founded in 1979 and specializes in delivering comprehensive healthcare information systems and related services to rural and community hospitals. Our systems and services are designed to support the primary functional areas of a hospital and to enhance access to necessary financial and clinical information. Our comprehensive system enables healthcare providers to improve clinical, financial and administrative processes and outcomes. Our products and services provide solutions in key areas, including patient management, financial accounting, clinical, patient care and enterprise applications. In addition

21

Table of Contents

to servicing small to medium-sized hospitals, we provide information technology services to other related entities in the healthcare industry, such as nursing homes, home health agencies and physician clinics.
We sell a fully integrated, enterprise-wide financial and clinical hospital information system comprised of all necessary software, hardware, peripherals, forms and office supplies, together with comprehensive customer service and support. We also offer business management, consulting and managed information technology ("IT") services, including electronic billing submissions, patient statement processing and accounts receivable management, as part of our overall information system solution.
Our system currently is installed and operating in over 650 hospitals in 46 states and the District of Columbia. Our customers consist of rural and community hospitals with 300 or fewer beds, with hospitals having 100 or fewer acute care beds comprising approximately 94% of our customers.
Management Overview
Historically we have primarily sought revenue growth through sales of healthcare information technology systems and related services to existing and new customers within our historic target market. Our strategy has produced consistent revenue growth over the long-term, as reflected in five- and ten-year compounded annual growth rates in revenues of approximately 10.9% and 9.5%, respectively, as of the end of our most recently completed fiscal year. Selling new and additional products and services to our existing customer base is an important part of CPSI’s future revenue growth. We believe that as our customer base grows, the demand for additional products and services, including business management services, will also continue to grow, supporting further increases in recurring revenues. We also expect to drive revenue growth from new product development that we may generate from our research and development activities.
In January 2013, we announced the formation of TruBridge, LLC ("TruBridge"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CPSI. TruBridge provides the business management, consulting and managed IT services that historically had been provided by CPSI, with the expectation of expanding both our service offerings and our footprint in this particular marketplace in the future. We expect this strategic initiative to allow us to more fully take advantage of the market opportunities in providing such services by facilitating the expansion of our target market to include the entire rural and community hospital market, no longer limiting the market for our services to hospitals where CPSI already serves as the primary IT vendor.
In addition to revenue growth, our business model is focused on earnings growth. Once a hospital has installed our system, we continue to provide support and maintenance services to the customer on an ongoing basis. These services are typically provided by the same personnel who perform our system installations but at a reduced cost to us, and therefore at an increased gross margin. We also look to increase margins through cost containment measures where appropriate.
Turbulence in the U.S. and worldwide economies and financial markets impacts almost all industries. While the healthcare industry is not immune to economic cycles, we believe it is more significantly affected by U.S. regulatory and national health projects than the economic cycles of our economy. Additionally, healthcare organizations with a large dependency on Medicare and Medicaid populations, such as rural and community hospitals, have been impacted by the challenging financial condition of the federal government and many state governments and government programs. Accordingly, we recognize that prospective hospital customers often do not have the necessary capital to make investments in information technology. Additionally, in response to these challenges, hospitals have become more selective regarding where they invest capital, resulting in a focus on strategic spending that generates a return on their investment. Despite these challenges, we believe healthcare information technology is often viewed as more strategically beneficial to hospitals than other possible purchases because the technology offers the possibility of a quick return on investment. Information technology also plays an important role in healthcare by improving safety and efficiency and reducing costs. Additionally, we believe most hospitals recognize that they must invest in healthcare information technology to meet current and future regulatory, compliance and government reimbursement requirements.
As our new system installation customers expect significant cash inflows in the form of electronic health record ("EHR") incentive payments from the federal and state governments, we have experienced a significant demand for financing arrangements allowing these customers to minimize the near-term impact on their current cash resources. Our response to such demand has been the implementation of financing arrangements that allow customers to utilize anticipated cash inflows under the EHR incentive program in satisfaction of their payment obligations in purchasing our EHR solution. These payment terms have been particularly pervasive in the population of our new system installations since 2011, with such arrangements comprising nearly all new system installations during 2013 as this was the last year an eligible hospital could begin participation in the EHR incentive program and receive the full four years of incentive payments under the program. Customers seeking and receiving such financing arrangements comprised less than half of our new system installations during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Historically, we have made financing arrangements available to customers on a case-by-case basis depending upon various aspects of the proposed contract and customer attributes. These financing arrangements

22

Table of Contents

include short-term payment plans, longer-term lease financing through us or third-party financing companies, and Software as a Service ("SaaS") arrangements. We intend to continue to work with prospective customers to provide for financing arrangements to purchase our systems so long as such arrangements do not adversely affect our financial position or long-term liquidity. We believe that meeting the financial needs of rural and community hospitals while allowing for the profitable expansion of our footprint in this market will remain both an opportunity and a challenge for us in the foreseeable future.
Despite the ongoing financial challenges facing healthcare organizations, we have not experienced a decline in demand for our products and services, and our collections of receivables remain consistent with historical trends.
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
While ongoing financial challenges facing healthcare organizations have impacted and are expected to continue to impact the rural and community hospitals that comprise our target market, we believe that the incentives offered by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (the "ARRA") for the adoption of qualifying EHRs has increased and will continue to increase demand for healthcare information technology and will have a positive impact on our business prospects through 2015. As of June 30, 2014, incentive payments totaling $24.7 billion have been made to aid healthcare organizations in modernizing their operations through the acquisition and wide-spread use of healthcare information technology. Eligible hospitals can begin receiving these incentive payments in any year from 2011 through 2015, but the total incentive payment will decrease for hospitals that start receiving payments in 2014 and later. Additionally, if an eligible healthcare provider does not begin to demonstrate meaningful use of an EHR by October 1, 2014, then reimbursement under Medicare will begin to be reduced.
We have been focused on ensuring that we take the necessary steps to meet the needs of rural and community hospitals to help them gain access to the incentives made available under the ARRA. Primary among those steps is ensuring that our technology meets the ARRA’s EHR certification requirements. During 2010, both our hospital and medical practice EHR solutions were certified as a complete EHR by CCHIT®. Receiving this certification for both our hospital and medical practice EHR products ensures that both hospitals and providers using our EHR systems can attain "meaningful use" of EHRs and qualify for certain EHR incentives. Continuing this focus on ensuring that our technology meets the ARRA's EHR certification requirements, during 2013 Version 19 of our hospital and medical practice EHR systems were certified by CCHIT® as complete EHRs in compliance with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology ("ONC") 2014 Edition criteria. The ONC 2014 Edition criteria support both stage one and stage two meaningful use measures required to qualify eligible hospitals and providers for funding under the ARRA.
According to the most recently available data reported by the ONC and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS"), as of May 31, 2014, CPSI is third among all vendors in terms of the number of successful hospital customer attestations for complete EHR systems. As a result of our obtaining the CCHIT® certification and our track record with our hospital customers successfully achieving meaningful use, the ARRA has had and should continue to have a positive impact on our business and the businesses of the rural and community hospitals that comprise our target market.
While we expect to continue to benefit from the ARRA's EHR incentive program, the number of rural and community hospitals that have not yet acquired qualifying technology is quickly decreasing. However, we believe that the expanded requirements for continued eligibility for incentive payments under meaningful use rules will result in an expanded replacement market for EHRs. Lastly, as the incentive payments end in coming years, we expect that the payment adjustment phase of the program, which penalizes organizations not participating in the EHR incentive program, will provide a different motivation for purchase and expansion of EHRs, particularly among rural and community hospitals, which typically service higher uninsured populations than larger urban hospitals and rely more heavily on Medicare and Medicaid for reimbursement.
Health Care Reform
In March 2010, President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, collectively referred to as the "Health Reform Laws." This sweeping legislation implements changes to the healthcare and health insurance industries from 2010 through 2015, with the ultimate goal of requiring substantially all U.S. citizens and legal residents to have qualifying health insurance coverage by 2014 and providing the means by which it will be made available to them. We anticipate that the Health Reform Laws will have little direct impact on our internal operation but may have a significant impact on the businesses of our hospital customers once fully in effect. We have not been able to determine at this point whether the impact will be positive, negative or neutral; however, it is likely that the Health Reform Laws will affect hospitals differently depending upon the populations they service. Rural and community hospitals typically service higher uninsured populations than larger urban hospitals and rely more heavily on Medicare and Medicaid for reimbursement. It remains to be seen whether the increase in the insured populations for rural and community hospitals, as well as the increase in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements under the ARRA for hospitals that implement EHR technology, will be enough to offset cuts in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements contained in the Health Reform Laws or as

23

Table of Contents

a result of sequestration or other federal legislation.
We believe healthcare initiatives will continue during the foreseeable future. If adopted, some aspects of previously proposed reforms, such as further reductions in Medicare and Medicaid payments, could adversely affect the businesses of our customers and thereby harm our business.
Sequestration
Automatic across-the-board budget cuts to federal discretionary programs under the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, known as "sequestration," commenced in March 2013, including a reduction in Medicare payments to healthcare providers beginning April 1, 2013. The percentage reduction to Medicare reimbursement rates may not be more than 2%, on a non-cumulative basis, during each federal fiscal year. Under current law, as amended by subsequent legislation, Medicare sequestration is scheduled to last through federal fiscal year 2024, although legislation could be enacted at any time to end or modify the terms of sequestration. As our hospital customers rely heavily on reimbursements from Medicare to fund their operations, this reduction in reimbursement rates, although capped at 2%, could negatively affect the businesses of our customers and our business. As of the date of this filing, we have not experienced significant adverse effects on our business or results from operations from this reduction in reimbursement rates.
As the federal government seeks to further limit deficit spending in the future due to fiscal restraints, it will likely continue to cut entitlement spending programs such as Medicare and Medicaid matching grants which will place further cost pressures on hospitals and other healthcare providers. Furthermore, federal and state budget shortfalls could lead to potential reductions in funding for Medicare and Medicaid. Reductions in reimbursements from Medicare and Medicaid could lead to hospitals postponing expenditures on information technology.
Results of Operations
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we generated revenues of $105.1 million from the sale of our products and services, as compared to $102.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of 2.3% that is primarily attributed to continued growth in our business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues due to an expansion of service offerings complemented by an expanding customer base for our previously existing service offerings. We installed our core financial and patient accounting system in 13 new hospitals in the first six months of 2014 compared to 17 in the first six months of 2013. Additionally, our expanding customer base resulted in continued growth in support and maintenance revenues. Our net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased 9.0% from the first six months of 2013, while cash flow from operations increased 113.6%, primarily as a result of decreased utilization of Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans in the first six months of 2014 and increased collections of amounts previously recorded under such arrangements.
As mentioned above, our operations have been significantly affected by the EHR incentives offered under the ARRA and the related reduction in Medicare reimbursement rates for those providers that fail to demonstrate meaningful use of EHR by October 1, 2014. "Meaningful use" of EHR under the ARRA refers to a set of core criteria that medical providers must meet in order to prove that they are using their EHR as an effective tool in their practice, plus additional a la carte menu items. Meaningful use is measured in three stages, with each stage representing a level of adoption of EHR. EHR incentive payments to eligible hospitals meeting the stage one criteria began in 2011. Eligible hospitals that did not meet the stage one criteria by October 1, 2013 will experience a decrease in the overall incentive payments for which they are eligible under the incentive program. Providers who began participation in the incentive program in 2011 are required to meet three consecutive years of meaningful use under the stage one criteria before advancing to the stage two criteria in their fourth year, with all other providers required to meet two years of meaningful use under the stage one criteria before advancing to the stage two criteria in their third year. In May 2014, CMS released a proposed rule granting flexibility to providers who are experiencing difficulties fully implementing ONC 2014 Edition EHR, effectively giving all providers the option to defer demonstrating meaningful use under the stage two criteria until the federal government's 2015 fiscal year (October 1, 2014).
To achieve the stage one criteria, eligible hospitals are required to meet 14 core objectives and five menu objectives that they select from a total list of 10. Stage two criteria were published in September 2012 and became effective at the beginning of the federal government's 2014 fiscal year (October 1, 2013) and require eligible hospitals to meet 16 core objectives and three menu objectives to be selected from a total list of six. Most of the stage one objectives are core objectives under stage two, but the thresholds that providers must meet to satisfy these objectives for stage two have been raised. Stage three criteria (the final rules for which have not yet been published) are expected to become effective at the beginning of the federal government's 2017 fiscal year (October 1, 2016).
In the first year of participation in the EHR incentive program, eligible hospitals are required to report compliance with stage one requirements for a consecutive 90-day period during the federal government's fiscal year to qualify for incentive payments. For subsequent years, the original rules required eligible hospitals to report compliance with meaningful use

24

Table of Contents

standards for a full EHR reporting year. However, for fiscal 2014 CMS is permitting a one-time three-month reporting period. For eligible hospitals, this three-month reporting period is fixed to the quarter of the federal government's fiscal year. As a result of the required deadlines associated with these compliance periods, in order for eligible hospitals to maximize potential EHR incentive payments and avoid the aforementioned reduction in Medicare reimbursement rates for failure to demonstrate meaningful use of EHR by October 1, 2014, our financial results have become and will remain uneven during the term of the ARRA program, with system sales activity relating to the ARRA likely being higher in the first two quarters of our fiscal year and lower in the last two quarters of our fiscal year. However, due to the timing of revenue recognition on the remaining $1.6 million of accumulated unrecognized revenue related to First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans as discussed below, our recognition of revenue for the remainder of 2014 may not be in a pattern consistent with changes in system sales activity.
First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans. During 2012, we included language in certain of our customer license agreements that more evenly matched customers’ anticipated cash inflows under the EHR incentive program with the necessary cash outflows for purchasing our EHR solution ("First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans"). Under these arrangements, a customer is required to remit to us Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments (not to exceed the remaining balance under the arrangement) received for adoption of qualifying EHRs upon receipt of such funds, with only nominal payments required until the customer’s receipt of such incentive payments. If no such incentive payments are received by the customer or if such payments are not sufficient to pay the remaining balance under the arrangement, payments continue at contracted nominal amounts until the balance of the contract price is paid in full. EHR incentive payments aside, these nominal payment amounts would result in the overall duration of the payment periods significantly exceeding that of our historical financing arrangements. As a result, revenue from these arrangements is recognized as the amounts become due. As of June 30, 2014, we have remaining accumulated unrecognized revenue of $1.6 million to be recognized as the amounts become due under these contracts. As of the date of this filing, substantially all of the remaining $1.6 million in accumulated unrecognized revenue is due from a single customer.
Our experience suggests an average time from successful attestation in stage one to receipt of funds from Medicare under the EHR incentive program of approximately six weeks. Overall with respect to these contracts, we have typically experienced a timeframe of six to 12 months from the date of installation to receipt of funds under the EHR incentive program. While the single customer contributing substantially all of the remaining $1.6 million of accumulated unrecognized revenue has experienced a significantly expanded timeframe from installation to receipt of incentive funds, we do not consider the events giving rise to such timeframe expansion to be indicative of an increased risk of noncompliance with the ARRA requirements, collectibility or eventual revenue recognition. The final new system installation under a First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plan was performed during the fourth quarter of 2012, and the Company does not expect to offer such payment terms going forward. As a result, aside from the anticipated recognition of the $1.6 million of accumulated unrecognized revenue as of June 30, 2014, we do not expect First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans to have a significant impact on our future financial statements.
Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012, we ceased offering First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans to our customers, opting instead for license agreements with payment terms that provide us with greater visibility into and control over the customer's meaningful use attestation process and significantly reducing the maximum timeframe over which customers must satisfy their full payment obligations in purchasing our system ("Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans"). Under these arrangements, for the first two years following execution of the contract, a customer is only required to remit to us Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments (not to exceed the remaining balance under the arrangement) received for adoption of a qualifying EHR upon receipt of such funds. Upon the expiration of this two-year period, the remaining balance (if any) is required to be paid in full over a period not to exceed 12 months. As the overall payment period durations of the Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans are consistent with that of our historical system sale financing arrangements, revenues under the Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans are recognized upon installation of our EHR solution. Less than half of our new customer installations during the first six months of 2014 were under Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans.
We expect the demand for financing arrangements to continue for the next few years, but at a lower frequency than that experienced during 2012 and 2013 due to the mechanics of the ARRA program. As a result, our financing receivables balances are expected to continue to decrease as collections of currently outstanding amounts are expected to exceed additional receivables recorded under such arrangements.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenues. Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 0.4%, or $0.2 million, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. This was largely attributable to a $1.7 million decrease in system sales revenues as increased add-on sales to existing customers were not sufficient to fully offset a decrease in new system installation activity. This decrease in system sales revenues was largely offset by a combined $1.5 million increase in support and maintenance revenues and business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues due to a larger customer base and increased applications within that customer base requiring support and maintenance services, as well as increased demand for and market acceptance of our business management, consulting and managed IT services.
System sales revenues decreased by 7.7%, or $1.7 million, for the comparative three-month periods. New system installation activity decreased from period to period, as we completed financial and patient software system installations at four new hospital clients in the second quarter of 2014 (one of which was under a SaaS arrangement) compared to ten in the second quarter of 2013 (none of which were under SaaS arrangements). Sales to existing customers, which accounted for 80.1% of our system sales revenues for the second quarter of 2014 compared to 43.1% for the second quarter of 2013, increased 71.7%, or $6.9 million, as a result of increased installations within our existing customer base of our Physician Documentation application, a critical application in achieving stage two of meaningful use criteria. During 2012, the Company installed systems under First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans for which a substantial majority of the consideration is not received or revenue recognized until the customers successfully achieve "meaningful use" designation and receive related stage one ARRA incentive payments. These arrangements resulted in $1.0 million of revenue recognized (net of additional unrecognized revenue accumulated) during each of the second quarters of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Excluding the net effect on revenue resulting from these arrangements, adjusted system sales (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) decreased $1.7 million, or 8.0%, due to the decrease in new system installation activity.

Table of Contents

Support and maintenance revenues increased by 4.0%, or $0.7 million, for the comparative three-month periods. Support service fees increased by 5.9%, or $1.0 million, due to an increase in recurring revenues as a result of a larger customer base, an increase in support fees for add-on business sold to existing customers, and an increase in support rates from contractually agreed upon Consumer Price Index ("CPI") rate increases. SaaS, hosting and other fees decreased 20.6%, or $0.1 million, as a result of the high volume during the trailing twelve months of conversions of previously installed SaaS arrangements to perpetual licenses at the customers' request. Other fees (including, but not limited to, sales of forms and supplies) decreased a combined 51.5%, or $0.3 million, due to decreased sales volumes for these relatively insignificant revenue streams.
Business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues increased by 6.0%, or $0.8 million, for the comparative three-month periods. We experienced this increase in business management, consulting and managed IT services primarily as a result of an expansion of service offerings complemented by an expanding customer base for our previously existing private pay services. The introduction and continued maturation of our recently introduced service offerings has resulted in increased demand for our cloud computing services (a component of managed IT services, increasing 44.6%, or $0.1 million) and IT consulting services (increasing 164.6%, or $0.1 million). The introduction of medical coding and clinical help desk services (components of consulting services) in the fourth quarter of 2013 resulted in revenues of $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to none in the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our previously existing private pay services increased 15.6%, or $0.4 million, as a result of more effective marketing of these services. We also experienced a $0.1 million increase in reimbursed travel costs as a result of the increased utilization of our consulting resources. The increases experienced in these service offerings were partially offset by a 9.2%, or $0.4 million, decrease in accounts receivable management services due to the loss of a single customer during the trailing twelve months that contributed significant revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2013.
Costs of Sales. Total costs of sales increased by 0.3%, or $0.1 million, for the comparative three-month periods. As a percentage of total revenues, costs of sales increased slightly to 52.5% from 52.2%.
Costs of system sales decreased by 13.7%, or $1.8 million, for the comparative three-month periods. The decrease in costs of system sales was primarily due to decreases in cost of equipment, travel costs and third-party software costs. Cost of equipment and travel costs decreased $0.8 million and $0.7 million, respectively, due to decreased new system installation activity, as the Company's add-on sales are generally not equipment-intensive or travel-intensive. Third-party software costs decreased $0.3 million, mostly as a result of certain immaterial year-to-date reclassifications recorded during the second quarter of 2013 with no comparable activity during the second quarter of 2014. The gross margin on system sales increased to 45.3% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 41.5% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. Excluding the net effect on revenue resulting from First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans (which were used by the Company in 2012) and the deferral of the related cost of equipment, the adjusted gross margin on system sales (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) increased to 42.8% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 39.5% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2013. The table below summarizes the major components of costs of system sales as a percentage of system sales revenues:

Excluding the net effect on revenue and cost of equipment resulting from First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans, payroll and related expenses, travel expense, and adjusted cost of equipment (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) would represent 31.2%, 12.1% and 5.0%, respectively, of adjusted system sales (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) for the second quarter of 2014 compared to 28.6%, 14.3% and 7.6%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2013. Please see the tables set forth below under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable financial measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP").
Costs of support and maintenance decreased 0.5%, or less than $0.1 million, for the comparative three-month periods, primarily due to a decrease in costs related to infrastructure projects in place during the second quarter of 2013 that had largely been completed by the beginning of the second quarter of 2014. The gross margin on support and maintenance revenues increased slightly to 61.4% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 59.6% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013.

Table of Contents

Our costs associated with business management, consulting and managed IT services increased 25.4%, or $1.9 million, for the comparative three-month periods, due primarily to an increase in payroll and related expenses. The gross margin on these services decreased to 32.2% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 42.6% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 due to the disproportionate increase in payroll and related expenses versus revenues. Payroll and related expenses increased 23.0%, or $1.1 million, as a result of adding more employees during the trailing twelve months in order to support and develop our growing customer base and increase capacity in advance of anticipated future increases in demand, as well as a $0.1 million increase in stock-based compensation due to additional grants of restricted stock and performance share awards to our executive officers and certain key employees during the trailing twelve months. For similar reasons, we have experienced a $0.5 million increase in temporary labor costs. We also experienced a $0.2 million increase in related travel costs, primarily due to the increased volume of consulting engagements and increased sales generation efforts.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 12.1%, or $0.5 million, for the comparative three-month periods. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $0.7 million decrease in commission expense related to the decrease in adjusted system sales, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense as a result of additional grants of restricted stock and performance share awards to our executive officers and certain key employees during the trailing twelve months.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased 8.8%, or $0.7 million, for the comparative three-month periods, primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in bad debt expense. This decrease in bad debt expense is due to the combined factors of decreased growth in gross accounts receivable and financing receivables ("total gross receivables") during the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 and the lack of any severe collectability determinations during the second quarter of 2014. Total gross receivables grew by 21.0%, or $8.8 million, during the second quarter of 2013, necessitating increases in our allowance for doubtful accounts and allowance for credit losses to accommodate the expanding receivables base. Comparatively, total gross receivables increased only 0.5%, or $0.3 million, during the second quarter of 2014. This decreased growth in total gross receivables is due to the combined effects of decreased utilization of Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans in the second quarter of 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 and a significant increase in collections made pursuant to those arrangements during the second quarter of 2014. Additionally, the second quarter of 2013 was impacted by severe write-offs of receivable balances due from a single customer experiencing significant financial difficulty, with no such events occurring in the second quarter of 2014. This decrease in bad debt expense is partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in costs associated with our annual user group conference, which was held during April 2014 with the 2013 event occurring during September 2013. Lastly, we experienced a $0.3 million increase in stock-compensation costs resulting from additional grants of restricted stock and performance share awards to our executive officers, certain key employees and non-employee directors during the trailing twelve months.
As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses decreased to 20.9% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to 23.1% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013.
As a result of the foregoing factors, income before taxes increased by 6.4%, or $0.9 million, from the three months ended June 30, 2013.
Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 35.6% and 36.1%, respectively. As the federal research and development tax credit, as extended by the ATRA, expired effective December 31, 2013 and has yet to be extended for fiscal year 2014 as of June 30, 2014, no tax benefit from these credits has been recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2014.
Net Income. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2014 increased by 7.3%, or $0.6 million, to $9.1 million, or $0.81 per basic and diluted share, as compared with net income of $8.5 million, or $0.77 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Net income represented 17.2% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to 15.9% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Revenues. Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased 2.3%, or $2.3 million, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. This was largely attributable to a combined $4.3 million increase in support and maintenance revenues and business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues due to a larger customer base and increased applications within that customer base requiring support and maintenance services, as well as increased demand for and market acceptance of our business management, consulting and managed IT services. The combined increase in support and maintenance revenues and business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues was partially offset by a $2.0 million decrease in system sales revenues, primarily caused by a decrease in revenue recognized under First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans.

System sales revenues decreased by 4.6%, or $2.0 million, for the comparative six-month periods. New system installation activity decreased from period to period, as we completed financial and patient software system installations at 13 new hospital clients in the first six months of 2014 (two of which were under SaaS arrangements) compared to 17 in the first six months of 2013 (none of which were under SaaS arrangements). Sales to existing customers, which accounted for 73.3% of our system sales revenues for the first six months of 2014 compared to 49.3% for the first six months of 2013, increased 39.3%, or $8.5 million, as a result of increased installations within our existing customer base of our Physician Documentation application, a critical application in achieving stage two of meaningful use criteria. During 2012, the Company installed systems under First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans for which a substantial majority of the consideration is not received or revenue recognized until the customers successfully achieve "meaningful use" designation and receive related stage one ARRA incentive payments. These arrangements resulted in $1.1 million and $2.8 million of revenue recognized (net of additional unrecognized revenue accumulated) during the first six months of 2014 and 2013, respectively. Excluding the net effect on revenue resulting from these arrangements, adjusted system sales (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) decreased $0.3 million, or 0.8%, due to the decrease in new system installation activity.
Support and maintenance revenues increased by 3.6%, or $1.3 million, for the comparative six-month periods. Support service fees increased by 6.0%, or $2.0 million, due to an increase in recurring revenues as a result of a larger customer base, an increase in support fees for add-on business sold to existing customers, and an increase in support rates from contractually agreed upon Consumer Price Index ("CPI") rate increases. The increase in support service fees was partially offset by a 35.1%, or $0.4 million, decrease in SaaS, hosting and other fees as a result of the high volume during the trailing twelve months of conversions of previously installed SaaS arrangements to perpetual licenses at the customers' request.
Business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues increased by 12.5%, or $3.0 million, for the comparative six-month periods. We experienced this increase in business management, consulting and managed IT services revenues primarily as a result of an expansion of service offerings complemented by an expanding customer base for our previously existing service offerings. Of our previously existing service offerings, we have experienced growth in customer demand for accounts receivables management (increasing 2.8%, or $0.2 million) and private pay services (increasing 11.9%, or $0.7 million) as a result of more effective marketing of these services. The introduction and continued maturation of our recently introduced service offerings have resulted in increased demand for our clinical consulting services (increasing 41.9%, or $0.5 million), IT consulting services (increasing 349.4%, or $0.2 million) and cloud computing services (a component of managed IT services, increasing 47.1%, or $0.3 million). The introduction of medical coding and clinical help desk services (components of consulting services) in the fourth quarter of 2013 resulted in revenues of $0.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to none in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We also experienced a $0.4 million increase in reimbursed travel costs as a result of the increased utilization of our consulting resources.
Costs of Sales. Total costs of sales increased by 0.6%, or $0.3 million, for the comparative six-month periods. As a percentage of total revenues, costs of sales decreased slightly to 52.8% from 53.7%.
Costs of system sales decreased by 14.6%, or $3.8 million, for the comparative six-month periods. The decrease in costs of system sales was primarily due to decreases in cost of equipment, travel costs and third-party software costs. Cost of equipment and travel costs decreased $1.3 million and $2.0 million, respectively, due to decreased new system installation activity, as the Company's add-on sales are generally not equipment-intensive or travel-intensive. Third-party software costs decreased $0.4 million, as redundant subscriptions for third-party clinical vocabulary content that were in place during the first six months of 2013 have since been terminated. The gross margin on system sales increased to 45.3% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 38.9% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013. Excluding the net effect on revenue resulting from First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans (which were used by the Company in 2012) and the deferral of the related cost of equipment, the adjusted gross margin on system sales (as hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) increased to 43.9% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 35.1% in the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.

hereinafter defined in the "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section below) for the first six months of 2014 compared to 30.8%, 17.3% and 8.5%, respectively, for the first six months of 2013. Please see the tables set forth below under the caption "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable financial measure determined in accordance with GAAP.
Costs of support and maintenance increased 0.6%, or $0.1 million, for the comparative six-month periods, primarily due to an increase in payroll and related costs of 1.0%, or $0.1 million, due to increased personnel. The gross margin on support and maintenance revenues increased slightly to 60.5% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 59.3% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.
Our costs associated with business management, consulting and managed IT services increased 28.2%, or $4.1 million, for the comparative six-month periods, due primarily to an increase in payroll and related expenses. The gross margin on these services decreased to 32.1% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 from 40.5% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 due to the disproportionate increase in payroll and related expenses versus revenues. Payroll and related expenses increased 27.1%, or $2.5 million, as a result of adding more employees during the trailing twelve months in order to support and develop our growing customer base and increase capacity in advance of anticipated future increases in demand. For similar reasons, we have experienced a $0.7 million increase in temporary labor costs. We also experienced a $0.5 million increase in related travel costs, primarily due to the increased volume of clinical consulting engagements and increased sales generation efforts.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 1.5%, or $0.1 million, for the comparative six-month periods. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $0.6 million decrease in commission expense related to the decrease in system sales revenues, partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in stock-based compensation expense as a result of additional grants of restricted stock and performance share awards to our executive officers and certain key employees during the trailing twelve months, and a $0.3 million increase in costs associated with collaborative arrangements associated with our membership in CommonWell Health Alliance, in particular relating to the development of interoperability standards for the healthcare information technology industry.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased 4.0%, or $0.7 million, for the comparative six-month periods, primarily due to a $0.9 million decrease in bad debt expense and a $0.7 million decrease in expenses associated with our self-insured group healthcare plans offered to our employees. The decrease in bad debt expense is due to the combined factors of decreased growth in gross accounts receivable and financing receivables ("total gross receivables") during the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013 and the lack of any severe collectability determinations during the first six months of 2014. Total gross receivables grew by 48.4%, or $16.4 million, during the first six months of 2013, necessitating increases in our allowance for doubtful accounts and allowance for credit losses to accommodate the expanding receivables base. Comparatively, total gross receivables increased only 7.1%, or $3.5 million, during the first six months of 2014. This decreased growth in total gross receivables is due to the combined effects of decreased utilization of Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013 and a significant increase in collections made pursuant to those arrangements during the first six months of 2014. Additionally, the first six months of 2013 were impacted by severe write-offs of receivable balances due from a single customer experiencing significant financial difficulty, with no such events occurring in the first six months of 2014. Costs associated with our self-insured group healthcare plans decreased as we experienced historically severe claims in the first six months of 2013, with such costs returning to more typical levels during the first six months of 2014. The combined $1.6 million decrease in bad debt expense and expenses associated with our self-insured group healthcare plans is partially offset by increases in stock-compensation costs, costs associated with our defined contribution employee retirement plan, costs associated with our annual user group conference, and costs related to our incentive bonus program for certain members of management. Stock-compensation costs increased $0.4 million due to additional grants of restricted stock and performance share awards to our executive officers, certain key employees and non-employee directors during the trailing twelve months. Costs associated with our defined contribution employee retirement plan increased 12.9%, or $0.2 million, due to an increased number of participants eligible for the Company's discretionary employer matching contribution. Costs associated with our annual user group conference increased $0.1 million as our national user conference was held during April 2014 with the 2013 event occurring during September 2013. Costs related to our incentive bonus program for certain members of management increased $0.1 million, due mostly to changes in the program.
As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses decreased to 22.4% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to 23.7% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013.
As a result of the foregoing factors, income before taxes increased by 10.8%, or $2.6 million, from the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Income Taxes. Our effective income tax rate for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 35.5% and 34.4%, respectively. The federal research and development tax credit expired effective December 31, 2011, but was retroactively extended for amounts incurred from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013, when the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 ("ATRA") was signed into law in January 2013. No tax benefit from these credits was recorded during 2012 as applicable accounting standards require that such benefits are to be recorded in the period that the legislation is enacted. Instead, the Company recognized the full net benefit for the federal research and development tax credit for the entire 2012 fiscal year during the six months ended June 30, 2013, in addition to estimated amounts related to the first six months of 2013. As the federal research and development tax credit, as extended by the ATRA, expired effective December 31, 2013 and has yet to be extended for fiscal year 2014 as of June 30, 2014, no tax benefit from these credits has been recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
Net Income. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased by 9.0%, or $1.4 million, to $16.8 million, or $1.50 per basic and diluted share, as compared with net income of $15.4 million, or $1.39 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Net income represented 16.0% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to 15.0% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $13.3 million, compared to $1.6 million at June 30, 2013. This increase in cash and cash equivalents is mostly due to a significant increase in net cash provided by operating activities and a significant decrease in cash used for investing activities, as discussed below. Management believes that cash and investments plus cash generated from our normal operating activities should be adequate to fund our business for at least the next twelve months. Our principal source of liquidity has been cash provided by operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities has been used primarily to fund the growth in our business and return cash to stockholders in the form of dividends. We believe that paying dividends is an effective way of providing an investment return to our stockholders and a beneficial use of our cash. However, the declaration of dividends by CPSI is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors will continue to take into account such matters as general business conditions, our financial results and such other factors as our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $14.5 million, compared to $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. This 113.6% increase in net cash provided by operating activities far outpaces our 9.0% increase in net income from the first six months of 2013 to the first six months of 2014 and primarily results from the combined effects of decreased utilization of Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013 and a significant increase in collections made pursuant to those arrangements during the first six months of 2014.
As previously stated, for the first two years following execution of such an arrangement, customers are only required to remit to us Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments (not to exceed the remaining balance under the arrangement) received for adoption of a qualifying EHR upon receipt of such funds. All 17 of our new customer installations during the first six months of 2013 were under Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans, resulting in significant increases in our financing receivables balances. Of the 13 new customer installations during the first six months of 2014, only six were under Second Generation Meaningful Use Plans while two were under SaaS arrangements, with the remaining five containing more traditional payment terms resulting in payments due as the respective installations are completed. Our collections of amounts due under Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans increased from $3.0 million during the first six months of 2013 to $8.6 million during the first six months of 2014, as these arrangements were relatively new in 2013 with very few of these customers having completed the attestation period and administrative actions necessary to receive related incentive payments as of June 30, 2013. The prevalence of these arrangements during the remainder of 2013 has resulted in an expanded population of customers under such arrangements and, when coupled with successful attestations in the trailing twelve months, has resulted in an increased volume of customers receiving incentive payments and, consequently, significantly higher collections during the first six months of 2014.
We continue to experience customers seeking financing arrangements for system installations, in particular due to the desire and ability of customers to minimize the near-term impact that purchasing our system will have on their current cash resources by utilizing cash inflows expected under the EHR incentive program. We expect this demand for financing arrangements for system installations to continue during the next twelve months, which could result in increases in our financing receivables, although at lower levels than that experienced during 2013. The potential increase in financing receivables, although offset by periodic collections of previously outstanding amounts, could temporarily have a negative impact on our net cash provided by operating activities.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. We used cash for the purchase of $2.7 million of property and equipment during the first six months of 2013, with approximately half of that amount related to the build-out of our new facility in Fairhope, Alabama. Capital expenditures were $0.3 million during the first six months of 2014, and we do not anticipate the need for significant capital expenditures during the remainder of 2014.
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we increased our dividend rate 11.8% to $0.57 per share from $0.51 per share.
Our days sales outstanding, which represents the average collection time for accounts receivable, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were 45 and 35 days, respectively. This significant increase in days sales outstanding is primarily attributable to the decreased utilization of Second Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans in the first six months of 2014 compared to the first six months of 2013, resulting in more sales dollars entering accounts receivable. Despite this increase in days sales outstanding, we have not experienced a significant deterioration within the agings of our accounts receivable.
We currently do not have a bank line of credit or other credit facility in place. Because we have no debt, we are not subject to contractual restrictions or other influences on our operations, such as payment demands and restrictions on the use of operating funds that are typically associated with debt. If we borrow money in the future, we will likely be subject to operating and financial covenants that could limit our ability to operate as profitably as we have in the past. Defaults under applicable loan agreements could result in the demand by lenders for immediate payment of substantial funds and substantial restrictions on expenditures, among other things. Additional capital, if needed, may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all.
Our future capital requirements will depend upon a number of factors, including the rate of growth of our sales, cash collections from our customers and future investments in fixed assets. We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents, investments and anticipated cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Backlog
Backlog consists of revenues we reasonably expect to recognize over the next 12 months under existing contracts, and excludes amounts to be recognized in subsequent periods related to First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans. The revenues to be recognized may relate to a combination of one-time fees for system sales and recurring fees for support and maintenance, business management, consulting and managed IT services. As of June 30, 2014, we had a twelve-month backlog of approximately $49.7 million in connection with non-recurring system purchases and approximately $120.9 million in connection with recurring payments under support and maintenance, business management, consulting and managed IT services. As of June 30, 2013, we had a twelve-month backlog of approximately $43.4 million in connection with non-recurring system purchases and approximately $115.0 million in connection with recurring payments under support and maintenance, business management, consulting and managed IT services. Our backlog increase is the result of new contracts signed in the trailing twelve months to be installed over the next twelve months, as well as an increase in our customer base for recurring business.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined by Item 303(a)(4) of SEC Regulation S-K, as of June 30, 2014.
The Company has other lease rights and obligations that it accounts for as operating leases that may be reclassified as balance sheet arrangements under accounting pronouncements currently being considered by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").
Critical Accounting Policies
Our Management Discussion and Analysis is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make subjective or complex judgments that may affect the reported financial condition and results of operations. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and other financial amounts that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continually evaluate the information used to make these estimates as our business and the economic environment change.

Table of Contents

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, we identified our critical accounting polices related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for credit losses and estimates. There have been no significant changes to these critical accounting policies for the three months ended June 30, 2014.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We have included in the discussion under the captions "Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2013" and "Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2013" above financial measures that were not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Any analysis of non-GAAP financial measures should be made only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. Below, we define each of these non-GAAP financial measures, provide a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, and discuss the reasons that we believe this information is useful to management and may be useful to investors.
We use the non-GAAP financial measures "adjusted gross margin on system sales," "adjusted cost of equipment," and "adjusted system sales." Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide our Board of Directors, investors, potential investors, securities analysts and others with useful information to evaluate our performance because they exclude the impact of unrecognized revenue, recognized revenue and related deferral of cost of equipment resulting from our use of First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans. First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans were new to the Company in 2012, resulting in the Company not having sufficient experience with comparable arrangements to establish evidence of a standard business practice of historically collecting under the original payment terms of such contracts without making concessions. As a result, the provisions of the Software topic and Revenue Recognition subtopic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification result in a conclusion that the fee is not fixed or determinable and, as a result, the revenue is to be recognized as the amounts become due. Because the timing of our recognition of revenue under First Generation Meaningful Use Installment Plans is not related to any remaining obligation on the part of the Company, the Company and our Board of Directors use these non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate our performance relative to other periods. We believe that the most directly comparable GAAP measures to adjusted gross margin on system sales, adjusted cost of equipment, and adjusted system sales are gross margin on system sales, cost of equipment, and system sales, respectively.
Set forth below are reconciliations of adjusted gross margin on system sales, adjusted cost of equipment, and adjusted system sales to the comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP (dollar amounts in thousands):

Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to the potential change in the value of our investment portfolio as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. The primary purpose of our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk of loss. As of June 30, 2014, our investment portfolio consisted of a variety of financial instruments, primarily including, but not limited to, money market securities and high quality government and corporate obligations. It is our intent to ensure the safety and preservation of our invested principal funds by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. We do not hold financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. The securities in our investment portfolio are classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our balance sheet at fair market value with their related unrealized gain or loss reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.
Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may fall short of expectation due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities which have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates.
We believe that the market risk arising from our holdings of these financial instruments is minimal. Due to the conservative allocation of our investment portfolio, we do not believe that an immediate 10% increase in interest rates would have a material effect on the fair market value of our portfolio. Additionally, since we believe we have the ability to liquidate this portfolio, we do not expect our operating results or cash flows to be materially affected to any significant degree by a sudden change in market interest rates on our investment portfolio. We do not utilize derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risks.

Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’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 timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, with a company have been prevented or detected on a timely basis. Even disclosure controls and procedures determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance that their objectives are achieved.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, 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 Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)) during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
