Evome Strengthens Major Creditor Relationship After the Sale of the Simbex Unit to Riddell, LOI Related to Simbex Acquisition Debt is Cancelled
12 Abril 2024 - 6:30AM
Evome Medical Technologies Inc (the “
Company” or
“
Evome”) highlighted the strengthening credit
relationship with Pathward, N.A. (“
Pathward”), the
Company’s senior lender. As the Company works to sell non-core
business units to reduce acquisition debt in an effort to improve
operational profitability, Pathward provides working capital to
fuel revenue growth of the Company’s new Biodex products. Pathward
has featured the strong and growing relationship with Evome as an
example of its willingness to fund growth companies:

This focus on revenue growth and market
expansion has led the Company’s operating subsidiary, Biodex
Rehab Systems, LLC (“Biodex”), to launch a new,
high-tech product called the RST (Reactive Step Trainer),
previously announced by the Company. The RST was launched by the
Company at the American Physical Therapy Association Combined
Sections Meeting in Boston on February 15, 2024. The RST is
designed to improve balance and reduce tripping and falling,
particularly among elderly patients. The Reactive Step Trainer can
provide repetitive conditioning training along with random and
on-demand perturbation challenges, designed to help patients
improve their compensatory step strategies and reduce fall risk. It
has been meticulously engineered to be cost-effective, ensuring
accessibility to a wider range of patients, while also prioritizing
functionality to effectively cater to the clinical requirements of
Physical Therapists.
Looking ahead, Evome plans to continue its
innovation with the upcoming launch of the SpaceTek Knee™. This
isokinetic device, co-developed with NASA, represents another
milestone in Evome's commitment to advancing medical technology and
improving patient outcomes while improving margins and increasing
sales by democratizing its technology to a broader market.
“As we focus on the higher margin Biodex product
line, we will work towards shedding non-core assets for the purpose
of reducing existing acquisition debt,” said CEO Mike Seckler.
“Simbex was an excellent example of this strategy. By selling
Simbex, we both paid down a significant portion of acquisition debt
and we are able to focus our time, capital and energy on the Biodex
product line.”
The Company also announced that the non-binding
letter of intent (LOI) to extend acquisition debt related to the
Company’s acquisition of Simbex LLC in 2021, previously announced
by the Company on February 8, 2024, has been cancelled and the
unsecured and subordinated debt will revert to its previous status
as an unsecured subordinated debt of the Company.
