Acquisition Details
A portion of the proceeds from the CVS Transaction will be used to paydown the company’s existing loan facility. The company previously prepaid a portion of the loan at the end of 2022, and after the closing of the transaction, the company anticipates its remaining debt balance to be approximately $2.5 million. The remaining proceeds will be used for ongoing operation of the company.
The company currently estimates that it will end 2022, prior to the CVS transaction, with between $10 million to $11 million of cash and investments. The company also currently estimates that it will incur one-time costs in the first half of 2023 related to the previously announced restructuring to be approximately $6.5 million, excluding the paydown of its existing loan facility.
The CVS acquisition will enable the continuity of care for SpotRx pharmacy customers. To help ensure continuity of care and a seamless transition, CVS plans to interview employees currently working at SpotRx pharmacies who are interested in joining the CVS team.
