Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure
On December 7, 2023, Viemed Healthcare, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that it has applied and received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) for the voluntary delisting of its common shares (each a “Common Share”) from the TSX. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the foregoing information, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the 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 such information and Exhibit 99.1 be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Item 8.01. Other Events
On December 7, 2023, the Company announced that it has applied and received approval from the TSX for the voluntary delisting of its Common Shares from the TSX. The Common Shares will be delisted from TSX effective as of close of markets on December 21, 2023. In accordance with the TSX Company Manual, TSX does not require shareholder approval of the voluntary delisting of the Common Shares from TSX, as an acceptable alternative market will exist for the Common Shares on the date of delisting.
The delisting from TSX will not affect the Company's listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market ("NASDAQ"). The Common Shares will continue to trade on NASDAQ under the symbol “VMD". Following delisting from TSX, Viemed's shareholders can trade their Common Shares through their brokers on NASDAQ.

By their nature, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and contingencies, including the anticipated results of delisting and consolidated trading on Nasdaq. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, including those contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
