CloudMD Software & Services Inc. (TSXV: DOC, OTCQX: DOCRF,
Frankfurt: 6PH) (the “
Company” or
“
CloudMD”), a healthcare technology and innovative
health services company transforming the delivery of care, is
pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive agreement
with Well Health Technologies Corp. (TSX:WELL, OTCQX: WHTCF)
(“
WELL”) for the sale of its British Columbia
based primary care clinics and Cloud Practice, its cloud-based
electronic medical records (“
EMR”) and practice
management software, for approximately $5.75 million in cash (the
“
Transaction”).
In connection with the Transaction, CloudMD has
agreed to sell to WELL its brick-and-mortar primary care clinics,
HealthVue (Richmond) and South Surrey Medical (Surrey), as well as
its Cloud Practice software, which includes Juno EMR and ClinicAid.
CloudMD will retain ownership of its online patient portal,
MyHealthAccess, and will retain the right (under a licence granted
by WELL at closing of the Transaction) to use Juno EMR, which have
both been integrated into its Kii Personalized & Connected Care
offering. The divestitures of the clinics and Cloud Practice will
not affect the services CloudMD currently delivers within its core
business and is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s EBITDA or operating cash flows.
The Company’s divestment of the Clinics and
Pharmacies Division is part of the Company’s previously announced
overall plan to focus on the performance of its core businesses,
Enterprise Health Solutions (“EHS”) and Digital
Health Solutions (“DHS”). Divesting these non-core
assets will provide additional near-term capital to support the
continued growth and innovation of the Company’s employer
healthcare offering and allow the Company to focus on improving
gross margins and driving profitability.
Karen Adams, CEO of CloudMD
commented, “We are executing against our strategy of divesting
non-core assets and focusing on our core business to drive organic
growth, improve margins and move towards profitability next year.
We will continue to reallocate capital from the sale of non-core
assets back into the organic growth of the Company and ensure we
maximize the potential of our faster growing and higher margin EHS
division.”
Transaction Details
The consideration to be paid by WELL in
connection with the Transaction is $5.75 million, with $5.1 million
being paid in cash at closing and the balance being subject to a
holdback. Subject to satisfying the closing conditions, closing of
the Transaction is expected in Q4 2022.
INFOR Financial Inc. acted as exclusive
financial advisor and Cassels Brock & Blackwell LLP acted as
legal advisor to CloudMD.
