Business Wire
Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: NVOS) (the “Company” or
“Novo”) announced today that it has received confirmation of the
issuance of a Standby Letter of Credit (“SBLC”) by HSBC for
delivery by Swift MT760, as part of a program designed for
monetizing SBLCs. As previously reported, the Company entered into
an application for the monetizing program whereby the Company is
projected to receive gross funding proceeds of approximately $78
million under the SBLC upon completion of monetization.
The Company expects to use the proceeds to close the acquisition
of the Ophir Collection which will result in the sole unfettered
ownership of the Ophir Collection by the Company.
"The issuance of the MT760 is the final step prior to
monetization. It is exciting to see the progress leading us toward
the Ophir Collection acquisition, as well as providing additional
funds directed to the previously reported share repurchase program.
Our commitment to raising non-dilutive capital for the Company
remains foremost in our efforts as we consider uniquely
advantageous funding sources,” stated Robert Mattacchione, the
Company’s CEO and Board Chairman.
About Novo Integrated Sciences,
Inc.
Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. is pioneering a holistic approach
to patient-first health and wellness through a multidisciplinary
healthcare ecosystem of services and product innovation. Novo
offers an essential and differentiated solution to deliver, or
intend to deliver, these services and products through the
integration of medical technology, advanced therapeutics, and
rehabilitative science.
We believe that “decentralizing” healthcare, through the
integration of medical technology and interconnectivity, is an
essential solution to the rapidly evolving fundamental
transformation of how non-catastrophic healthcare is delivered both
now and in the future. Specific to non-critical care, ongoing
advancements in both medical technology and inter-connectivity are
allowing for a shift of the patient/practitioner relationship to
the patient’s home and away from on-site visits to primary medical
centers with mass-services. This acceleration of “ease-of-access”
in the patient/practitioner interaction for non-critical care
diagnosis and subsequent treatment minimizes the degradation of
non-critical health conditions to critical conditions as well as
allowing for more cost-effective healthcare distribution.
The Company’s decentralized healthcare business model is
centered on three primary pillars to best support the
transformation of non-catastrophic healthcare delivery to patients
and consumers:
- First Pillar: Service Networks. Deliver multidisciplinary
primary care services through (i) an affiliate network of clinic
facilities, (ii) small and micro footprint sized clinic facilities
primarily located within the footprint of box-store commercial
enterprises, (iii) clinic facilities operated through a franchise
relationship with the Company, and (iv) corporate operated clinic
facilities.
- Second Pillar: Technology. Develop, deploy, and integrate
sophisticated interconnected technology, interfacing the patient to
the healthcare practitioner thus expanding the reach and
availability of the Company’s services, beyond the traditional
clinic location, to geographic areas not readily providing
advanced, peripheral based healthcare services, including the
patient’s home.
- Third Pillar: Products. Develop and distribute effective,
personalized health and wellness product solutions allowing for the
customization of patient preventative care remedies and ultimately
a healthier population. The Company’s science-first approach to
product innovation further emphasizes our mandate to create and
provide over-the-counter preventative and maintenance care
solutions.
Innovation through science combined with the integration of
sophisticated, secure technology assures Novo Integrated Sciences
of continued cutting-edge advancement in patient-first
platforms.
