WELL Health Announces $30 Million Bought Deal Offering of Common Shares

THIS NEWS RELEASE IS INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION IN CANADA ONLY AND IS NOT INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) (“WELL” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement pursuant to which Eight Capital and Stifel GMP as joint bookrunners and co-lead underwriters, together with a syndicate of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”), will purchase, on a bought deal basis, 8,109,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (the “Shares”), subject to all regulatory approvals, at a price of $3.70 per Share (the “Issue Price”) for gross proceeds of $30,003,300 (the “Offering”).

The Company has agreed to grant the Underwriters an over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the Shares at the Issue Price, exercisable in whole or in part, at any time on or prior to the date that is 30 days following the closing of the Offering. If this option is exercised in full, approximately $4,500,000 additional proceeds will be raised pursuant to the Offering and the aggregate proceeds of the Offering will be approximately $34,500,000.

The Company has received indications of interest for lead orders in connection with the Offering from a large International Sovereign Wealth Fund and Hong Kong businessman and investor Mr. Li Ka-shing.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to fund growth initiatives, including potential future acquisitions in the areas of physician acquisition, higher margin speciality clinics and executive health opportunities, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

“WELL’s earnings and cash flow continues to grow, and our business continues to mature as we complete the optimization and integration of businesses acquired in 2021. The proceeds from this financing will allow us to remain opportunistic through the remainder of the year and continue allocating capital in a highly accretive manner particularly as attractive opportunities present themselves in weaker market conditions,” said Hamed Shahbazi, Chairman and CEO of WELL, “We are deeply appreciative to Mr. Li Ka-shing and one of the world’s leading sovereign wealth funds for their support of this financing initiative.”

The closing date of the Offering is scheduled to be on or about May 19, 2022, and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and the applicable securities regulatory authorities.

The Offering will be completed by way of a prospectus supplement (the “Supplement”) to the short form base shelf prospectus of the Company dated September 22, 2021 (the “Base Prospectus”), which Supplement is expected to be filed with the securities commissions and other similar regulatory authorities in each of the provinces of Canada, on or prior to May 13, 2022. The Base Prospectus and, once filed, the Supplement can be found on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, and contain important detailed information about the Offering.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and applicable state securities laws.
