Active Medical Center is a medical clinic that addresses a wide variety of orthopedic treatments for various conditions through a combination of medical and physical rehabilitation services. The medical clinic will be rebranded as a Mike Ditka IMAC Regeneration Center, the third such location in the Chicago metro area and the first in the southwestern suburbs of Chicago.
“Active Medical Center’s Naperville practice is a great addition to our current treatment centers in the Chicago market. We look forward to expanding our Chicago presence with an established facility and talented team,” commented Jeff Ervin, IMAC’s Chief Executive Officer.
The practice was purchased for an undisclosed amount that represents approximately 2.0x 2020 cash flow. Immediate expense synergies are expected to deliver an additional 0.4x cash flow annually. This acquisition price is consistent with the Company’s targeted capital allocation for such acquisitions. Moreover, the medical focus of Active Medical Center is consistent with the Company’s focus of offering non-surgical pain treatment options and sports medicine services.
“We firmly believe in the price discipline within our acquisition strategy to grow existing and neighboring markets. This is our fourth acquisition in 2021 and we have a robust pipeline of targets to continue our strategy into the second half of the year,” concluded Mr. Ervin.
