Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On October 19, 2015, Cross Country Healthcare, Inc. (“Company”) entered into a definitive agreement with Dennis Ducham, Emily Serebryany, the Emily Serebryany Trust dated 4/16/14, Val Serebryany, and the Val Serebryany Family Trust dated 2/18/14 to acquire all of the membership interests of Mediscan, LLC., Mediscan Diagnostic Services, LLC, and Mediscan Nursing Staffing, LLC (collectively “Mediscan”). For income tax purposes the transaction will be treated as a purchase of assets. Founded in 1995 and headquartered in Woodland Hills, CA, Mediscan provides temporary healthcare staffing and workforce solutions to both the healthcare and education markets. While largely concentrated in California, Mediscan provides services across 11 states to more than 300 clients through more than 70 specialties. One of Mediscan’s founding members, Val Serebryany, as well as its President and Chief Executive Officer, Dennis Ducham, will remain with the business after the transaction closes. For the year ended December 31, 2014 and the eight-month period ended August 31, 2015, Mediscan had combined unaudited revenue of $32.1 million and $25.6 million, respectively.
According to the terms of the agreement, the purchase price includes $28 million in cash and $5 million in shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and is subject to a net working capital adjustment. Sellers are also eligible to receive an earn-out based on Mediscan’s 2016 and 2017 performance that could provide up to an additional $7 million of cash over the two years. The Company is financing the acquisition through a combination of cash-on-hand and borrowings under its senior credit facility. The 349,871 shares of Common Stock to be delivered at the closing will be subject to a lockup period. The Company will use cash on hand and borrowings under its senior credit facility to finance the transaction.
Consummation of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions. It is anticipated that the Closing will occur during the fourth quarter of 2015.
The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form 8-K.
