EX-99.1 · exhibit991-projectnewdawnp.htm EX-99.1 3 exhibit991-projectnewdawnp.htm EX-99.1 Exhibit 99.1 Health Catalyst to Divest Vitalware for $147 Million, Accelerating Strategic Transformation Transaction reflects a sharper focus on AI and core technology; net proceeds expected to strengthen balance sheet and provide financial flexibility SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — June 4th, 2026 — Health Catalyst, Inc. (“Health Catalyst” or the “Company,” Nasdaq: HCAT) today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to divest Vitalware, LLC and the Vitalware business unit, its mid-revenue cycle business, to Med-Metrix for a total consideration of $147 million in cash. This divestiture sharpens Health Catalyst's focus on driving measurable improvement for health systems across cost, clinical, and consumer performance, and the Company expects it to accelerate the broader transformation underway. “This is a big step forward for Health Catalyst. We are concentrating our business around the areas where we have the deepest conviction, and we plan to put the capital structure in place to back our long-term strategy. Vitalware is a great business, and we are pleased to have found a partner in Med-Metrix who is well positioned to carry it forward, which we believe puts both companies in a strong position for what comes next." — Ben Albert, CEO, Health Catalyst Health Catalyst expects the transaction to strengthen its balance sheet and provide increased financial flexibility to prioritize the core technology and AI investments that underpin its ability to drive measurable improvement for health systems across cost, clinical, and consumer performance. At its core, the Company’s strategy is built on 18 years of proprietary healthcare improvement data and $2.8 billion in measured outcomes, a foundation that grows more complete with every outcome measured and that serves as the foundation for an AI roadmap that will enable health systems to turn their own results into specific, prioritized action. The Company plans to use net proceeds from the divestiture upon closing, combined with cash on hand, to fully repay and terminate its existing senior secured term loan facility of approximately $160 million of outstanding principal as of March 31, 2026, plus additional amounts in interest, prepayment premiums and costs. Med-Metrix, a technology-enabled revenue cycle management company serving provider organizations across the country, will acquire Vitalware. Med-Metrix's resources and focus in revenue cycle management position it to invest in the business more deeply. A best-in-KLAS leader with approximately $37 million in fiscal year 2025 revenue, Vitalware provides software for the financial operations of a health system, a category distinct from the clinical and operational improvement work at the core of Health Catalyst's strategy. The transaction is expected to close in 2026 subject to the satisfaction of certain specified closing conditions, including the expiration or termination of regulatory waiting periods. Additional details regarding the divestiture are included in Health Catalyst’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 4, 2026. About Vitalware Vitalware by Health Catalyst is a suite of mid-revenue solutions that help hospitals and health systems improve coding compliance, chargemaster management, charge capture, and price transparency across the mid-revenue cycle. It combines healthcare-specific data models, applied AI, and expert support to deliver measurable financial and operational results. About Health Catalyst Health Catalyst, Inc. (Nasdaq: HCAT) is a healthcare intelligence company that accelerates measurable improvement for health systems across cost, clinical, and consumer performance. Backed by deep domain expertise, proprietary AI-driven technology, and $2.8 billion in documented outcomes, Health Catalyst helps health systems move from data to confident, measurable action. Advisors Raymond James served as the exclusive financial advisor, and Latham & Watkins LLP served as outside legal counsel for Health Catalyst.

Section 2.06 Final Purchase Price Calculation .

The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and methodologies set forth in the Illustrative Net Working Capital Schedule, the New Working Capital Accounting Principles and this Agreement, and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, GAAP, consistently applied. If Buyer fails to timely deliver the Closing Statement in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 2.06(a) within such ninety (90) day period, then, at the election of Seller in its sole discretion either (x) the Estimated Closing Statement delivered by Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.04 shall be deemed to be the Closing Statement, for all purposes hereunder or (y) Seller shall be entitled to retain (at the sole cost and expense of Buyer) an independent accounting firm of recognized national standing to provide an audit of the books of the Business and determine the calculation of, and prepare, the Closing Statement consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.06(a) , with the determination of such independent accounting firm being conclusive, final and binding on the parties hereto. (b) If, within forty-five (45) days after its receipt of the Closing Statement, Seller disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Cash, the Closing Transaction Expenses and/or the Purchase Price as set forth in the Closing Statement, Seller shall, on or prior to such forty-fifth (45th) day after its receipt of the Closing Statement, deliver a written notice to Buyer (a “ Dispute Notice ”), together with Seller’s proposed alternative calculations. In the event that Seller does not timely provide a Dispute Notice on or prior to such forty-fifth (45th) day after its receipt of the Closing Statement, Seller shall be deemed to have agreed to the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.06(a), which shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. The Dispute Notice shall specify in reasonable detail those items or amounts as to which Seller disagrees (each, a “ Disputed Item ”). 21 (c) If Seller delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer within forty-five (45) days after its receipt of the Closing Statement, Buyer and Seller shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery, negotiate in good faith to resolve any such disagreements with respect to the Closing Statement. Any Disputed Item resolved in writing between Buyer and Seller within such thirty (30)-day period shall be final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder with respect to such items. If the parties resolve all of the Disputed Items in the Closing Statement in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Closing Statement shall be revised to reflect such resolution and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Indebtedness, the Closing Cash, and the Closing Transaction Expenses agreed upon by the parties as reflected in such revised Closing Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties, absent Fraud. If Buyer and Seller are unable to reach such agreement on all Disputed Items during such period, then the parties shall promptly jointly request that Deloitte & Touche LLP, or if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, another nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be mutually agreed by the parties (the “ Independent Accountant ”), make a binding determination only as to the remaining Disputed Items and amounts in the Closing Statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Independent Accountant will, under the terms of its engagement, (i) act as an expert and not an arbitrator and (ii) have no more than thirty (30) days from the date of referral within which to render its written decision with respect to such Disputed Items and amounts. The Independent Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement as to which the parties are in disagreement. The Independent Accountant shall deliver to the parties a written report setting forth its adjustments, if any, to the Closing Statement based on the Independent Accountant’s determination with respect to the Disputed Items and amounts in accordance with this Agreement and the Net Working Capital Accounting Principles and such report shall include the calculations supporting such adjustments; provided , that the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by one of the parties in the Closing Statement or Dispute Notice, respectively, or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by one of the parties in the Closing Statement or Dispute Notice, respectively. Such report shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties, absent Fraud or manifest error. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant will be borne by Seller, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, in inverse proportion to their relative success in the dispute as determined by the Independent Accountant; provided , that any initial engagement fees owed to the Independent Accountant will be initially paid 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer (and subsequently reimbursed in accordance with the foregoing, as applicable). For example, should the aggregate items in dispute total $1,000 and the Independent Accountant awards $600 in favor of Seller’s position, Buyer would pay 60% of the costs of the Independent Accountant’s review and Seller would pay 40% of the costs of the Independent Accountant’s review. (d) Buyer and Seller agree that they will, and agree to cause their respective independent accountants and Subsidiaries to, cooperate and assist in the preparation of the Closing Statement and the calculation of the Purchase Price and in the conduct of the reviews referred to in this Section 2.06 , including the making available to the extent necessary of books, records, work papers and personnel under its control, subject to Section 5.02 , Section 6.01 and Section 7.09(c) and Section 7.09(d) . (e) The date on which the Closing Statement is finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.06 shall be referred to as the “ Determination Date .” The “ Final Purchase Price ” means the (x) the Purchase Price set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement if Buyer fails to timely deliver the Closing Statement in accordance with Section 2.06(a) , (y) the Purchase Price as set forth in the Closing Statement if Seller does not duly deliver a Dispute Notice or (z) if a Dispute Notice is timely delivered as agreed between Seller and Buyer pursuant to Section 2.06(c) or in the absence of such agreement, as determined by the Independent Accountant pursuant to Section 2.06(c) . 22 Section 2.07 Adjustment of Purchase Price . Within five (5) Business Days following the Determination Date, (i) if the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price (the amount of such excess, the “ Negative Adjustment Amount ”), Buyer and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse an amount equal to the Negative Adjustment Amount to Buyer out of the Adjustment Escrow Account and any remaining amount in the Adjustment Escrow Account to Seller, and in the event that the Adjustment Escrow Amount is insufficient to pay the Negative Adjustment Amount owed to Buyer, then the Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Buyer an amount equal to such excess amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Buyer, (ii) if the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price (the amount of such excess, the “ Positive Adjustment Amount ”), Buyer shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Seller an amount equal to the Positive Adjustment Amount in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing by Seller and Buyer and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse all funds available in the Adjustment Escrow Account to Seller, or (iii) if the Estimated Purchase Price neither exceeds nor is less than the Final Purchase Price, neither party shall pay, or cause to be paid, any amount to the other party in connection therewith, and Buyer and Seller shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse all funds available in the Adjustment Escrow Account to Seller. Section 2.08 Payments . Any amount required to be paid by Buyer or Seller under this Agreement that is not paid within the period specified for such payment shall bear interest from and including the date such payment was required to be made hereunder, to but excluding the date of payment, at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest publicly announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank from time to time as its prime rate in effect at its office located at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York in effect from time to time during the period from the date such payment was required to be made hereunder, to the date of payment. Such interest shall be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Section 2.09 Withholding . Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer (and any other Person that has any withholding obligation with respect to any payment made pursuant to this Agreement) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement any amount as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any other provision of Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, absent a change in Applicable Law after the date hereof requiring otherwise, no withholding is required with respect to payments of the Purchase Price to Seller as long as Seller provides a completed IRS Form W-9 (as contemplated by Section 2.05(b)(v) ) and (ii) Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of any required withholdings or deductions prior to the date such payment is made and shall reasonably cooperate with Seller to permit Seller to obtain any available exemption from or reduction to such withholding. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Tax authority as required by Applicable Law. To the extent that any such amounts are so deducted or withheld by Buyer or such other Person, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding were made. 23 Article 3 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER REGARDING SELLER AND THE PURCHASED SUBSIDIARY Seller represents and warrants to Buyer as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, except to the extent such representations and warranties are specifically made as of a particular date (in which case Seller makes the representations and warranties as of such particular date) and except as set forth in the Disclosure Schedule, that: Section 3.01 Corporate Existence and Power .
