Nobilis Acquires Plano Hospital at Significant Discount; Sets Date for Financial Release and Guidance

HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwired - Jul 30, 2015) - Nobilis Health Corp. (NYSE MKT: HLTH) (TSX: NHC) ("Nobilis" or the "Company") today announced that the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, approved a Sale Order for the sale of assets of Victory Plano Hospital, LP ("Plano") for a total purchase price of approximately $5.8 million. The purchase price consisted of a cash payment of $1.3 million, the assumption of Plano's loan with Legacy Bank of approximately $4.5 million and the assumption of Plano's capital equipment leases and real estate lease. Nobilis also acquired all of Plano's inventory, supplies and equipment plus all of Plano's outstanding accounts receivable for surgical procedures performed in the twelve months prior to closing as well as certain proceeds related to Plano's settlement agreement with CIGNA, which Nobilis believes have an aggregate value of between $1.0 million and $3.0 million.

The final deal terms represent a significant savings for Nobilis as compared to the deal terms originally agreed upon this past May. The prior deal was valued, in the aggregate, at $12.5M, with assumed capital equipment leases of $5.5 million, assumed bank debt of $7.0 million and with no account receivables to be acquired. 

"As with our Scottsdale acquisition in early 2014, the Company's strategic maneuver to complete this acquisition in bankruptcy court was calculated to acquire the asset at a reduced price," said Harry Fleming, Nobilis' chairman.

"Plano represents an important acquisition for Nobilis, and we're happy to have completed it on terms more favorable to our shareholders," said Chris Lloyd, Nobilis' CEO. "This marks the realization of another milestone in our strategic plan and provides needed operational flexibility for the Dallas market. We are looking forward to updating our shareholders on this deal and providing updated guidance for fiscal 2015 and initial revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2016 and 2017," said Chris Lloyd, CEO of Nobilis Health.

Nobilis will host a conference call on Friday, August 14, 2015, at 10 a.m. CST to discuss its first quarter results. Details for participating in the conference call will be contained in a separate press release.
