The deal includes a purchase price of approximately $19 million at closing. ReWalk expects to close the deal on Aug. 11, with closing contingent upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Additional cash earnouts may be paid based upon a percentage of AlterG’s future revenue growth in the next two.
ReWalk aims to strengthen its long-term financial position and path to profitability through this deal. In fiscal 2022, AlterG generated $20 million in revenue and recorded a positive operating profit.
“This transaction is truly transformative for ReWalk and is a milestone in our long-term strategy for growth from both our existing portfolio of products and from synergistic acquisitions,” said Larry Jasinski, CEO of ReWalk. “We believe this transaction will leverage our combined market presence from both businesses and, by creating sales and support efficiencies across all product lines, accelerate our path to profitability.
“Through this transaction, we believe we will create a formidable commercial infrastructure to support multiple additional products across the continuum of care from the clinic to the home.”
