Stockholders Approve Acquisition of Greenbrook TMS
On November 8, 2024, Neuronetics’ stockholders approved the previously announced acquisition of Greenbrook TMS Inc. (“Greenbrook”), in which Neuronetics will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Greenbrook in an all-stock transaction. The next step in finalizing the transaction is a hearing in respect of the Final Order pursuant to the Ontario Business Corporations Act scheduled for November 15, 2024. The transaction will create a vertically integrated organization capable of providing access to mental health treatment with significant scale in the U.S. The transaction offers multiple strategic benefits for Neuronetics and its customers, including increased brand awareness for NeuroStar, more consistent delivery of best practices, and the ability to offer a variety of positive benefits for all NeuroStar customers. Beyond the strategic benefits, the transaction is expected to create compelling financial benefits, including increased revenue scale and a strong growth trajectory, material cost synergies, an accelerated path to profitability, and a bolstered balance sheet.
The Company has outlined several key strategic initiatives, including merging Neuronetics’ sales team with Greenbrook’s regional area managers to optimize commercial operations, implementing the Better Me Provider Program best practices across all Greenbrook sites, and accelerating the rollout of SPRAVATO® treatment across the combined network. Through these initiatives and additional identified opportunities to optimize the combined company’s cost structure in connection with the transaction, the Company now expects to achieve cash flow breakeven by the third quarter of 2025.
NeuroStar TMS Data Presented at Leading Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Conference Shows Strong Efficacy in Treating Teen Depression
At the 2024 American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (“AACAP”) annual meeting, Neuronetics presented data from the largest study to date evaluating transcranial magnetic stimulation (“TMS”) in adolescents with major depressive disorder. In an oral presentation, Paul E. Croarkin, DO, MS of Mayo Clinic shared compelling results showing NeuroStar’s strong efficacy in treating Major Depressive Disorder (“MDD”) in adolescent patients, with impressive response and remission rates of 78% and 48% respectively. The findings were similar to those previously reported in adult populations treated with NeuroStar TMS including clinically meaningful improvement in anxiety symptoms in this MDD population. As the only FDA-cleared TMS device for first-line adjunct treatment of MDD in patients aged 15-21, these findings further establish NeuroStar’s leadership in providing innovative solutions for adolescent mental health treatment.
