Cardiff Lexington Corp. (CDIX) Acquires Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC.

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / June 4, 2021 / Cardiff Lexington Corporation (OTC PINK:CDIX) and Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC in Ft. Pierce, FL announced today that Cardiff Lexington has acquired Nova Ortho and Spine as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardiff Lexington. This acquisition serves as the initial foundation for Cardiff Lexington’s HealthCare Division and is the cumulation of many months of negotiations by Management and Board of Directors to acquire the ideal partner as the keystone to build upon in order to implement the Company’s growth strategies within the healthcare sector.

Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC, its management, and employees are committed to the continued growth and expansion of the Company throughout Florida and neighboring states. No operational changes are planned, and current ownership will remain in place under a ten (10) year Management Agreement. The subsidiary will serve as an acquisition platform to integrate complementary healthcare service providers in neighboring markets and ancillary service providers (chiropractic, physical therapy, imaging, etc.) as we meet rapidly expanding opportunities.

The transaction was a stock purchase that included all assets of Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC. Sellers received a cash payment in the amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,500,000.00) and were issued 894,834 shares of Series J Preferred Stock of the Company with an aggregate stated value equal to Three Million Five Hundred Seventy-Nine Thousand Three Hundred and Thirty-Four Dollars ($3,579,334.00) for a total transaction of six million seventy-nine thousand and three Hundred and Thirty-Four Dollars $6,079,334.00). The parties further agreed to performance based contingent supplement payment to Sellers in 2022 should one year from the closing date the Company’s trailing twelve months minimum Pre-Tax Net Income exceed One Million Nine Hundred Seventy-Nine Thousand Three Hundred Twenty Dollars ($1,979,320.00), the “Milestone”, which in that event would cause the issuance to Sellers of 818,750 additional shares of Preferred J Stock, with an aggregate stated value equal to Three Million Two Hundred Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($3,275,000.00). All Preferred J shares issued to Sellers are subject to a 5-year Lock Up / Leak Out Agreement.

Leonite Capital and an affiliated institutional investor provided a capital investment into Cardiff Lexington Series N Preferred Stock of Three Million Four Hundred Seventy-Two Thousand Two Hundred and Twenty-Two Dollars ($3,472,222.00) which facilitated Cardiff Lexington’s cash payment portion of the acquisition to the Sellers.

About Nova Ortho and Spine, LLC

Nova Ortho and Spine, PLLC provides traumatic injury victims with primary care evaluations, interventional pain management, and specialty consultation services. The Company is a highly efficient provider of Emergency Medical Condition assessments. The service model is designed to promote referral relationships, facilitate patient access, and coordinate administration. As EMC providers and early stage continued care providers, Nova has superior access to patient information to determine the validity of each case and manage cases appropriately.

Nova brings to Cardiff Lexington an experienced management team with 25+ years’ experience operating primary, specialty and ancillary care facilities. They currently operate seven regional offices well positioned in population centers through Florida. The Company has no dependence on CMS (Medicare/Medicaid) or health insurance companies (HMOs or Blue Cross) for reimbursement. Payor mix is almost exclusively comprised of automotive insurance companies, general liability carriers, and private pay. Management estimates the seven locations, most of which were opened in the last twenty-four months, are operating at 35% capacity.

Nova provides primary care evaluation and management as well as specialty care and interventions (orthopedics, neurosurgery, and pain management) to approximately 100-150 patients per month at seven office locations. Patients are primarily referred through a growing network of professional service providers such as other physicians, physical therapy and chiropractic care providers. Revenue is primarily provided by bodily injury policies, general liability policies, and personal injury protection policies, which insulates the business from the declining reimbursement programs paid from or correlated to Medicare/ Medicaid and traditional health insurance companies.

“We are very excited to join forces with Dr. Marc Brodsky, MD and his partners, as together they form the cornerstone as an exceptional team poised to help lead the growth and expansion of our Healthcare division; we plan to acquire several other strategic medical surgery pain management practices throughout Florida and other southeastern states over the next 6 to 18 months,” stated Alex H. Cunningham, Cardiff Lexington CEO. We greatly appreciate Leonite Capital’s management’s ongoing support and the contribution by their affiliated institutional investor. ” Dr. Marc Brodsky of Nova responded: “We believe Cardiff Lexington is uniquely suited to accelerate and expand our growth strategies providing a unique and compelling platform for strategic alliances. We are very impressed by the current management team, their vision, and the specific additions within the healthcare segment that Alex and his team are working to bringing on board. At Nova Ortho and Spine we expect sustained 30% growth internally, complemented by synergies and new opportunities derived from future complementary acquisitions within Cardiff Lexington’s Healthcare Division.
