WELL · Price

Executive Summary

  • WELLSTAR completed two strategic acquisitions—PatientSERV (Ontario) and Lambert Médico Factures (Québec)—for a total cash consideration of approximately $4.8 M, plus up to $6.3 M in contingent milestone payments.
  • The combined assets are expected to generate roughly $5 M of annual revenue with EBITDA margins near 20%, raising WELLSTAR’s annualized revenue run‑rate to about $84 M.
  • The deals expand WELLSTAR’s billing coverage to six Canadian provinces and support its goal of reaching a $100 M revenue run‑rate by year‑end, backed by a recently announced $62 M equity financing.

Key Details

  • Total consideration: ~US$4.8 million cash (includes assumption of indebtedness, holdbacks, working‑capital adjustments).
  • Contingent payouts: Up to US$6.3 million based on future milestones or performance targets.
  • Acquired assets:
  • PatientSERV Corp. – Ontario’s leading uninsured and third‑party medical billing platform (acquisition closed Dec 1, 2025).
  • Lambert Médico Factures Inc. – Established Québec medical billing provider (majority ownership acquisition closed Feb 1, 2026).
  • Revenue impact: Combined annual revenue contribution of ~US$5 million; EBITDA(1) margins projected at ~20%.
  • Run‑rate effect: Post‑acquisition annualized revenue run‑rate rises to approximately US$84 million.
  • Financing context: Acquisition occurs after WELL’s announcement of a US$62 million equity financing, providing sufficient capital for continued growth and the targeted $100 M run‑rate by year‑end.
  • Strategic rationale: Expands presence in Canada’s two largest provincial markets, extends billing services to six provinces, deepens physician‑centric platform, and creates cross‑selling opportunities across the national footprint.
