PRACTICEXPERT COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF PRACTICEONE
LOS ANGELES, Calif., January 6, 2005 - PracticeXpert, Inc. (OTCBB: PXPT), today
announced that it has completed the acquisition of Physicians Informatics, Inc.
t/a PracticeOne ("PracticeOne"), a leading, single source provider of total
practice and clinical management solutions including outsourced medical billing
and administrative services as well as proprietary practice and clinical
management software.
PracticeOne (www.practiceone.com) provides HIPAA compliant integrated software
and service solutions that address core practice management, clinical management
and claims management enabling physician practices to increase productivity.
PracticeOne's suite of products consists of E-MEDSYS, a robust, high-end
practice management system, PRACTICEONE CLINICAL, an electronic medical records
("EMR") system that integrates with e-Medsys, and PRACTICEONE CLAIMS MANAGEMENT,
a medical billing and accounts receivable management service.
These solutions will continue to be offered on both client-server and ASP
platforms that provide unified access to a suite of innovative and proven
applications, affordably and through a single desktop menu. According to Mark
Richards, VP sales for PracticeOne, e-Medsys and PracticeOne Clinical clients
will now have access to a variety of expertise from PracticeXpert's practice
management consultants that can ensure that users are maximizing physicians'
cash flow and the value of the system.
PracticeOne maintains offices in Calabasas, California, Somerset, New Jersey,
and Richland, Washington. The company employs approximately 50 people and has
provided its software and services to over 1,500 customers. In its most recent
fiscal year PracticeOne generated approximately $5 million in revenue.
Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement, PracticeXpert has issued to the
former owners of PracticeOne 12.5 million shares of PracticeXpert restricted
common stock, and assumed as part of the transaction a $4 million note to the
former owners of PracticeOne that has no fixed terms of repayment and is
non-interest bearing. There is also an earnout based upon future performance of
the PracticeOne business unit. In addition, the former owners of PracticeOne
have guaranteed a credit facility between PracticeOne and a major financial
institution that will provide PracticeXpert access to an additional $2 million
in credit that may be utilized to complete additional acquisitions.
Jonathan Doctor, Chief Executive Officer of PracticeXpert, stated, "With the
completion of this acquisition our annualized revenues are now approximately $20
million. We intend to leverage the many synergies between PracticeOne and
PracticeXpert to expand our sales and marketing, offer a more comprehensive
suite of solutions and to reduce our operating costs. Further, the additional
capital provided by this transaction will enable us to complete additional
acquisitions in the future. We look forward to making everyone at PracticeOne
part of the PracticeXpert team, and continuing with our objective of building a
market leading unified provider of administrative solutions for physicians".
