VitalHub Corp. Announces Acquisition of Premier I.T. Partnership Limited
June 10 2024 - 7:30AM
VitalHub Corp. (TSX: VHI) (OTCQX: VHIBF) (the “Company” or
“VitalHub”) is pleased to announce that it has acquired (the
“Acquisition”) Premier I.T. Partnership Limited (“Premier IT”), a
company incorporated and existing under the laws of England and
Wales.
Premier IT offers market-leading workforce
planning, development and performance solutions for the healthcare
sector that optimizes the deployment of resources, improves
transparency and fairness, and ensures that staff can spend more
time safely and confidently doing the things that matter. These
solutions encompass appraisal and revalidation needs for doctors
and nurses, multi-source feedback, e-rostering, job planning, and
healthcare compliant learning management systems (LMS) solutions.
Premier IT proudly provides these services to over 125 customer
organizations empowering thousands of daily users in the United
Kingdom.
VitalHub acquired Premier IT from its
shareholders for a cash payment of £2,166,718, with an additional
opportunity to earn up to £472,849 over the course of two (2) years
post Acquisition by achieving specific financial milestones. A
portion of the proceeds will be held in escrow following closing of
the Acquisition.
As of the Acquisition, Premier IT had estimated
annualized contracted revenues of £1,300,000 of which substantially
all were identified to be recurring in nature from its wide-ranging
customer base (these amounts are unaudited), which underscores the
Acquisition's strategic fit within VitalHub's portfolio.
“With this Acquisition, we are excited to expand
upon our robust suite of healthcare and workforce automation
products while strengthening our relationships with all of our
combined healthcare customers in the United Kingdom,” said Dan
Matlow, CEO of VitalHub. “In particular, there are strong synergies
with our Hicom subsidiary which offers leading healthcare and
workforce automation solutions. Premier IT’s exceptional
healthcare-compliant LMS solution presents a tremendous opportunity
for cross-market penetration in all our geographies which should
drive further growth and innovation. We welcome the Premier IT team
to Team VitalHub!”
“Joining VitalHub marks a new chapter for us
that promises enhanced capabilities and broader reach,” said Ian
West, Chairman of Premier IT. “This partnership leverages our
combined strengths to significantly impact healthcare operations
and patient care across the UK. We are eager to integrate our
expertise with VitalHub's resources and look forward to a future of
shared success.”
