Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Amended MIPA, Buyer acquired, on the Closing Date, forty percent (40%) of all the issued and outstanding equity interests of Laboratory Services MSO (the “Purchased Interests”) from the Seller, free and clear of all liens (the “Transaction”). The Amended MIPA was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 13, 2023 (the “Form 8-K”).
On April 26, 2023, in connection with the Transaction, the Company filed an amendment to the Form 8-K in order to include: (i) the audited consolidated financial statements of Laboratory Services MSO for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and the related notes thereto; and (ii) the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of the Company and Laboratory Services MSO, as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “Form 8-K/A”).

A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
The information contained in this Item 2.02 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.
This report, including Exhibit 99.1 furnished herewith, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” and similar words, and the opposites of such words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company’s operations and business environment, which may be beyond the Company’s control, and which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward- looking statements. For example, forward-looking statements include, without limitation: statements regarding prospects for additional customers; market forecasts; projections of earnings, revenues, synergies, accretion or other financial information; and plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations. The risks and uncertainties referred to above include, but are not limited to, risks detailed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. These risks could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. Forward-looking statements represent the judgment of management of the Company regarding future events. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable at the time that they are made, the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Unless otherwise required by applicable law, the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, and expressly disclaims any obligation to do so, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
