ReWalk Robotics Announces Closing of Acquisition of AlterG
12 8월 2023 - 5:15AM
ReWalk Robotics Ltd. (Nasdaq: RWLK) (“ReWalk” or “the Company”), a
leading provider of innovative technologies that enable mobility
and wellness in rehabilitation and daily life for individuals with
neurological conditions, today announced closing of the previously
announced acquisition of AlterG, Inc. (“AlterG”), a leading
innovator and leading provider of Anti-Gravity systems for use in
physical and neurological rehabilitation.
ReWalk paid a purchase price of approximately $19 million in
cash (subject to customary adjustments for net working capital,
indebtedness, cash, and transaction expenses). The transaction also
provides for two potential earnout payments to be made by ReWalk
based on a percentage of AlterG’s year-over-year revenue growth
during each of the two consecutive trailing twelve-month periods
following the closing.
AlterG develops, manufactures, and markets Anti-Gravity systems,
which use unique, gravity-defying, NASA-derived Differential Air
Pressure technology to reduce the effects of gravity and allow
people to move in new ways with finely calibrated support and
reduced pain. AlterG systems can be found in more than 4,000
facilities around the world and have helped millions to safely and
consistently reach their goals and achieve better mobility
outcomes.
“We are exceedingly pleased to have now formally combined the
unique and complementary strengths of our two organizations,” said
Larry Jasinski, Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of ReWalk. “We now
look forward to applying our respective competencies and leveraging
our synergies to expand clinician and patient access to the
innovative technologies within our combined portfolio.”
In conjunction with the closing of the transaction, Charles
Remsberg, former CEO of AlterG, was appointed as Chief Sales
Officer of ReWalk. The Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors of ReWalk approved the grant of an aggregate of 200,000
Restricted Stock Units as an inducement material to Mr. Remsberg’s
entering into employment with ReWalk in accordance with Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5635(c)(4), subject to the terms and conditions of the
applicable award agreement covering such grant. The Restricted
Stock Units will vest and become exercisable as to 25% of the
underlying ordinary shares on August 11, 2024, and will vest
and become exercisable as to the remaining 75% of the underlying
ordinary shares in three equal annual installments on August
11, 2025, August 11, 2026 and August 11, 2027,
subject to Mr. Remsberg’s continued employment with ReWalk on such
vesting dates. The grant was made to Mr. Remsberg on August 11,
2023, contemporaneously with closing of the transaction.
