An update on the Canadian company, including its Q2/19 results and its next expected catalyst, is provided in a Haywood report.

In an Aug. 23 research note, analyst Daniel Rosenberg reported that his firm Haywood increased its price target on WELL Health Technologies Corp. (WELL:TSX.V; WLYYF:OTCMKTS) to CA$1.80 per share from CA$1.70 because the company, continuing to invest in growth, is likely about to acquire another entity.

Already, WELL Health is buying a 51% interest in SleepWorks Medical for CA$1.134 million and the option to purchase the remaining 49%, noted Rosenberg. The transaction is slated to close in September.

This deal comes on the heels of WELL Health recently completing a bought deal financing for gross proceeds of CA$15 million. Even after the SleepWorks transaction, WELL Health currently has an estimated $20 million in cash on hand, "leaving it ample room to pursue mergers and acquisitions (M&A)," Rosenberg indicated.

In other news, Rosenberg reported that WELL Health's Q2/19 results "were positive and ahead of expectations on the topline." Q2/19 revenue was CA$7.4 million versus consensus' forecast of CA$7 million. This represents a 258% revenue increase year over year.

WELL Health operates primary healthcare facilities and an electronic medical records business. The former accounts for most, or 88%, of total revenue, however, recent M&A activity will "shift more revenue toward tech," Rosenberg commented. "We expect new initiatives within clinics and recent M&A to provide incremental revenue for the year and help drive some margin improvement."

Haywood has a Hold rating on WELL Health because "shares remain ahead of themselves," given about "10% exposure of tech revenue and limited synergies from acquisitions extracted to date," explained Rosenberg. The current share price is about CA$1.65.
