By their nature, forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend upon future circumstances that may or may not occur, such as the consummation of the Transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.

R1 Team,

We are pleased to share exciting news we believe will help R1 continue its path toward supporting our customers and the healthcare industry through investment in advanced innovation, expert talent and best-in-class solutions. Earlier today, we announced an agreement to be acquired by investment funds affiliated with TowerBrook Capital Partners and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (CD&R), two leading investment firms, under which R1 will become a private company. R1 has a longstanding history with our partner, TowerBrook, and this exciting milestone for our company demonstrates their confidence in our team and the unmatched scale, technology and value we provide. The press release announcement can be viewed here.

Earlier this year, our Board of Directors formed a special committee of independent directors to evaluate and explore strategic alternatives for R1. Our agreement with TowerBrook and CD&R represents the successful culmination of that process.

TowerBrook has been a significant investor and strategic partner to R1 for many years and shares our vision of being the automation platform of choice for the provider industry. Together with CD&R, they will help us continue to enhance our core operations to drive customer performance and value.

What’s Next

While we are changing owners, our values and care for our customers will remain the same.

We expect this transaction to be completed by the end of the year, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of stockholder approval and regulatory approvals. Until then, we will continue to operate as a publicly traded company and it remains business as usual. We will continue to drive financial results and transform the patient experience for the benefit of our customers and their members.

While we are excited about today’s announcement, we recognize that many of you will have questions. Attached to this email is an FAQ to help address some of your immediate questions. We are committed to being transparent as we work through this process, so please share any additional questions you have with your manager.

As always, it is crucial that we speak with one voice. If you are contacted by any media or third parties, please forward all inquiries to Josh Blumenthal at [***].

Each of you continues to play an important role in R1 continuing to be the automation platform of choice for the provider industry. Thank you for your continued hard work and dedication to our company’s goals, commitments and values. I look forward to the many opportunities that today’s announcement will bring to R1.

These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the Transaction on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining required stockholder and regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of other conditions to the completion of the Transaction; (ii) the ability of affiliates of Raven Acquisition Holdings, LLC to obtain the necessary financing arrangements set forth in the commitment letters received in connection with the Transaction; (iii) potential litigation relating to the Transaction that could be instituted against Raven Acquisition Holdings, LLC, the Company or their respective affiliates, directors, managers or officers, including the effects of any outcomes related thereto; (iv) the risk that disruptions from the Transaction, including the diversion management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations will harm the Company’s business, including current plans and operations; (v) the ability of the Company to retain and hire key personnel in light of the Transaction; (vi) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; (vii) continued availability of capital and financing and rating agency actions; (viii) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting the Company’s business; (ix) general economic and market developments and conditions; (x) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the Transaction that could affect the Company’s financial performance; (xi) certain restrictions during the pendency of the Transaction that may impact the Company’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; (xii) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including but not limited to acts of terrorism, pandemics, outbreaks of war or hostilities, as well as the Company’s response to any of the aforementioned factors; (xiii) significant transaction costs associated with the Transaction, including the possibility that the Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (xiv) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Transaction, including in circumstances requiring the Company to pay a termination fee or other expenses; (xv) competitive responses to the Transaction, including the possibility that competing offers or acquisition proposals for the Company will be made; (xvi) the risk that the Company’s stock price may decline significantly if the Merger is not consummated; (xvii) the risks and uncertainties pertaining to the Company’s business, including those set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Part II, Item 1A of the Company’s subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports filed by the Company with the SEC; and (xviii) the risks and uncertainties that will be described in the proxy statement available from the sources indicated below. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Transaction, will be more fully discussed in the proxy statement. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors to be presented in the proxy statement will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements.

results of operations, credit rating or liquidity.

These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company does not undertake to and specifically disclaims any obligation to publicly release the results of any updates or revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect future events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events, except as required by applicable law.
