Expands the Reach of Tabula Rasa's MedWise Technology Platform to Multiple Provider and Payer Markets

MOORESTOWN, N.J., Aug. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Tabula Rasa HealthCare, Inc.® ("TRHC," "Tabula Rasa" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:TRHC), a leading healthcare company advancing personalized, comprehensive care for value-based care organizations, today announced it has entered into a definitive agreement (the "Agreement") to be acquired by Nautic Partners ("Nautic") for $10.50 in cash per share and will combine with ExactCare Pharmacy ("ExactCare"), a portfolio company of Nautic. The all-cash transaction values Tabula Rasa at approximately $570 million, including net debt of approximately $262 million, on an enterprise value basis.

Under the terms of the Agreement, Tabula Rasa stockholders will receive $10.50 in cash for each share of common stock at the closing of the transaction, representing a premium of approximately 34% to Tabula Rasa's closing stock price on August 4, 2023, the last trading day prior to announcement.

Following the closing of the transaction, John Figueroa, ExactCare's current Executive Chairman, will assume the role of Chairman and CEO of the combined company. Tabula Rasa will continue operations in all of its locations, including Moorestown, New Jersey, and Brian Adams, Tabula Rasa's current President and Chief Executive Officer, will assume the role of President of the combined company.  The combination brings together two preeminent healthcare companies whose pioneering work integrating comprehensive pharmacy services into population health has improved outcomes and reduced total cost of care for people with complex needs allowing them to thrive in home and community-based settings. Additionally, Tabula Rasa's technology-enabled solutions that individualize care to reduce risk, optimize efficacy and improve efficiency will help to make the combined companies' products and solutions more readily extendable into larger adjacent markets. This includes beneficiaries served by the Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE), Medicare and Medicaid.

Mr. Adams commented: "Over the past year, Tabula Rasa has focused on developing and expanding partnerships with risk-bearing healthcare organizations responsible for serving people with the most complex care needs. This transaction leverages ExactCare's extensive experience partnering with providers and payers across the healthcare continuum and brings us together with a company whose culture, values and focus on optimizing patient care are aligned with our mission at Tabula Rasa. We look forward to bringing our teams and solutions together to expand how we partner with payers and providers to improve patient care."

Michael Purcell, Independent Board Chairman of Tabula Rasa, added: "The Board has worked closely with Brian and the team to position Tabula Rasa for value enhancing opportunities since its reconstitution in 2022.  This transaction now provides our stockholders with a significant premium and liquidity – while also accelerating our investments in solutions that transform patient quality of life and improve the performance of our payer and provider clients."

Mr. Figueroa said: "Tabula Rasa has deep expertise managing care for the most vulnerable patients in our healthcare system and driving meaningful clinical and financial outcomes for the payers and providers that care for those patients. Combined with ExactCare's comprehensive long-term pharmacy care services that have served hundreds of thousands of people across the country, we will be even better positioned to put patients first to improve their health and wellness."

Marty Butler, President and Chief Financial Officer of ExactCare, concluded: "We see broad strategic alignment between Tabula Rasa and ExactCare. Our organizations provide unique but complementary solutions to address the healthcare challenges experienced by at-risk populations through innovative pharmacy and medication-related services. This partnership enables us to leverage each organization's strengths to enhance the value we deliver to our patients and partners."
