CareCloud Files Special Meeting Proxy to Accelerate Growth

 

SOMERSET, N.J., December 9, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CareCloud, Inc. (the “Company” or “CareCloud”) (Nasdaq: CCLD CCLDO, CCLDP), a leader in healthcare information technology solutions for medical practices and health systems nationwide, today announced the solicitation of proxies from its common stock (the “Common Stock”) shareholders to approve an increase in its authorized shares. This increase is designed to support the Company’s growth initiatives and corporate objectives.

 

Focus on Growth

 

Mahmud Haq, Founder and Executive Chairman of CareCloud’s Board of Directors stated, “As CareCloud’s largest common stockholder, Founder and Executive Chairman, I enthusiastically support this proposal. Our board and executive team collectively own more than 38% of the Common Stock and we firmly believe that increasing the number of authorized shares is essential to driving our revenue and profits – empowering us to deliver sustained, double-digit growth with a simultaneous, laser-like focus on profitability.”

 

CareCloud, a leading developer and provider of healthcare information technology and AI solutions, has achieved a 23% compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) over the past decade through its focus on acquisitive and organic growth. During the first three quarters of 2024, the Company generated over $10 million in free cash flow and achieved a 50% year-over-year increase in adjusted EBITDA.

 

The Proposal

 

The board-supported proposal seeks to increase the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock from 35 million to 85 million. This increase is intended to provide the flexibility needed for strategic growth initiatives, including future acquisitions, and to enable the potential conversion of the Company’s outstanding Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock. Additionally, it supports investments in organic growth and other corporate priorities.

 

The Special Meeting of Common Stock Shareholders, which is scheduled for January 27, 2025, will enable holders of the Common Stock as of December 3, 2024 to vote on increasing the Company’s authorized shares of Common Stock. Additional information regarding the Proxy is available on the Company’s website and at www.sec.gov.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This press release contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to anticipated future events, future results of operations or future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “could”, “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “goals,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “possible,” “potential,” “target,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.

 

Our operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect our results of operations and whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements in this press release include, without limitation, statements reflecting management’s expectations for future financial performance and operating expenditures, expected growth, profitability and business outlook, the impact of pandemics on our financial performance and business activities, and the expected results from the integration of our acquisitions.

 

These forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are only predictions, are uncertain and involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our (or our industry’s) actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of the risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements, including without limitation, risks and uncertainties relating to the Company’s ability to manage growth, migrate newly acquired customers and retain new and existing customers, maintain cost-effective global operations, increase operational efficiency and reduce operating costs, predict and properly adjust to changes in reimbursement and other industry regulations and trends, retain the services of key personnel, develop new technologies, upgrade and adapt legacy and acquired technologies to work with evolving industry standards, compete with other companies’ products and services competitive with ours, and other important risks and uncertainties referenced and discussed under the heading titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The statements in this press release are made as of the date of this press release, even if subsequently made available by the Company on its website or otherwise. The Company does not assume any obligations to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made.
