Not for distribution to U.S. news wire services or dissemination in the United States.

MARKHAM, ONTARIO, Nov. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Extendicare Inc. (“Extendicare” or the “Company”) (TSX: EXE) announced today that its wholly-owned home health care subsidiary, ParaMed Inc. (“ParaMed” or the “Purchaser”), has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the equity interests of CBI Home Health LP and CBI (GP) 3 Inc. and their respective subsidiaries (collectively, “CBI Home Health”), from CBI Health LP and CBI GP Holdco Inc. (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition will accelerate Extendicare’s services-focused growth strategy and strengthen its national leadership position.

The acquisition will be completed for a cash purchase price of $570.0 million, subject to customary adjustments, plus approximately $13.6 million in estimated lease liabilities in accordance with IFRS 16 – Leases (“IFRS 16”).

Acquisition Highlights

CBI Home Health is a national home health care company, delivering over 10 million hours of care annually across seven provinces, anchored by sizeable Ontario and Alberta operations.
Diversifies ParaMed’s geographic footprint and establishes a sizeable presence in the Alberta market.
Enhances ParaMed’s capabilities through innovative care models, including service partnerships with hospitals and specialized community services.
Highly complementary to Extendicare’s home health platform, adding scale to ParaMed’s technology platform to drive operating performance and significant IT and other cost synergies.
Highly compelling financial profile: 8.4x Adjusted EBITDA multiple after giving effect to the expected post-Acquisition synergies of approximately $7.4 million, resulting in pro forma AFFO per share and earnings per share (fully diluted) accretion of 20% and 15%, respectively (as further described below).¹
Prudent financing plan resulting in 3.3x Pro forma Total Debt to Adjusted EBITDA as at September 30, 2025.²

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company further announced today that it has entered into an agreement with a syndicate of underwriters co-led by CIBC Capital Markets, as sole bookrunner, and BMO Capital Markets (collectively, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to purchase, on a “bought deal” private placement basis, 10.64 million common shares of Extendicare (the “Offered Shares”) at a price of $18.80 per share (the “Offering Price”), for gross proceeds of approximately $200 million (the “Offering”).

“Home care services play an important role in relieving pressure on the rest of the health care system. The combination of ParaMed and CBI Home Health brings together two outstanding teams to enhance access to community-based care across the country,” said Dr. Michael Guerriere, President and CEO of Extendicare. “This Acquisition accelerates the growth trajectory of our home health care segment, significantly enhancing our presence in Western Canada and adding innovative care models to broaden our service offerings. The deep bench of talent and scale of our combined operations will allow us to support more Canadians to live independently at home, while leveraging our technology platform to drive outstanding customer experience and significant cost synergies to deliver strong value for our customers and shareholders,” added Dr. Guerriere.

_{¹“Adjusted EBITDA” and “AFFO per share” are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below. Based on CBI Home Health’s trailing twelve months (TTM) ended July 31, 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $61.9 million, including adjustments for lease accounting policy alignment adjustments to EBITDA ($5.5 million) and lease liability ($13.6 million) related to facilities leases, net of Extendicare Quality of Earnings (“QoE”) EBITDA adjustments of $3.3 million. Per share amounts calculated based on fully-diluted shares outstanding as at September 30, 2025, including the 10,640,000 common shares of Extendicare to be issued in connection with the Offering (as defined below).}
_{²“Pro forma total debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio” is a non-GAAP ratio. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below. Pro forma total debt to Adjusted EBITDA is based on the combined Extendicare and CBI Home Health third quarter 2025 (“Q3-25”) TTM results, including outstanding Extendicare letters of credit.}

Acquisition Overview

CBI Home Health is the home health care subsidiary of CBI Health LP. It provides services in seven provinces and delivered over 10 million hours of care in 2024 (average daily volume of approximately 28,000 hours). CBI Home Health’s approximately 8,500 team members provide a comprehensive suite of publicly funded home health care services, including innovative care models such as hospital to home programs, integrated care provided by interdisciplinary teams and specialized community support services, in addition to the more traditional provincially funded home health care services.

CBI Home Health’s standalone financial performance for the twelve months ended July 31, 2025, generated revenue of approximately $477.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA³ of approximately $61.9 million (or approximately 12.9% Adjusted EBITDA margin³). Based on these results, the purchase price of $570.0 million and approximately $13.6 million in estimated lease liabilities in accordance with IFRS 16, represents an estimated purchase price multiple of 9.4x CBI Home Health’s Adjusted EBITDA. Extendicare expects to realize annualized run-rate synergies of approximately $7.4 million related to the integration of IT platforms and other cost synergies over the two-year period following closing of the Acquisition. Including the effect of these synergies, the implied purchase price multiple would be approximately 8.4x of CBI Home Health’s Adjusted EBITDA.

Given the complementary nature of ParaMed’s and CBI Home Health’s operations, Extendicare expects to realize further annualized run-rate synergies of approximately $5.0 to $7.0 million over a longer period of time as the Company deploys enhanced technology solutions to drive productivity gains in areas such as automated scheduling and front-line employee experience once CBI Home Health’s business has been fully integrated.

Closing of the Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of consents from third parties, including Ontario Health atHome and Assisted Living Alberta, and regulatory approval pursuant to the Competition Act (Canada), and is not conditional on financing or due diligence. The Acquisition is anticipated to close in the first quarter of 2026.

_{³ “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA margin” is a non-GAAP financial measure and a non-GAAP ratio, respectively. See “Non-GAAP Measures” below. Based on CBI Home Health TTM July 31, 2025 Adjusted EBITDA of $61.9 million, including adjustments for lease accounting policy alignment adjustments to EBITDA ($5.5 million) and lease liability ($13.6 million) related to facilities leases, net of Extendicare QoE EBITDA adjustments of $3.3 million.}

Acquisition Financing

The Acquisition will be funded through a fully-committed $264.5 million upsizing to the Company’s existing senior secured credit facility, comprising: a $60.0 million increase to the Company’s existing revolving credit facility; a $204.5 million increase to the Company’s existing delayed draw term facility that will be fully drawn on closing; a new $150.0 million equity bridge facility that will backstop the Offering and will be reduced or cancelled in its entirety upon closing of the Offering; draws on the increased revolving credit facility; and cash on hand. Based on the above, and assuming that the Acquisition closed as at September 30, 2025, it is estimated that Extendicare’s pro forma total debt to Adjusted EBITDA⁴ as at September 30, 2025 would be 3.3x.

Additionally, the Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering (net of Underwriters’ fees) of approximately $192 million to partially fund the Acquisition.

The Offered Shares will be offered by way of private placement to “accredited investors” in all provinces of Canada and in the United States on a private placement basis to “qualified institutional buyers” pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”). Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about December 3, 2025, subject to the approval of the Toronto Stock Exchange and customary closing conditions. The closing of the Offering is not conditional on closing of the Acquisition. In the event that the Acquisition does not ultimately close, Extendicare intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to reduce its outstanding indebtedness, finance future growth opportunities, including acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes.

The Offered Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or under any state securities laws in the United States, and may not be offered, sold, directly or indirectly, or delivered within the United States except in certain transactions exempt from or not subject to, the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy Offered Shares in the United States or in any other jurisdiction where such offer is or may be unlawful.

Non-GAAP Measures

Certain measures used in this press release, such as “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted EBITDA margin”, “AFFO” and “Pro forma total debt to Adjusted EBITDA”, including any related per share amounts, are not measures recognized under GAAP and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by GAAP. These measures may differ from similar computations as reported by other issuers and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by such issuers. These measures are not intended to replace earnings (loss) from continuing operations, net earnings (loss), cash flow, or other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP. Such items are presented in this press release because management believes that they are relevant measures of Extendicare’s operating performance and ability to pay cash dividends.

Management uses these measures to exclude the impact of certain items, because it believes doing so provides investors a more effective analysis of underlying operating and financial performance and improves comparability of underlying financial performance between periods. The exclusion of certain items does not imply that they are non-recurring or not useful to investors.

Detailed descriptions of these measures can be found in Extendicare’s Q3 2025 MD&A (refer to “Non-GAAP Measures”), which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on Extendicare’s website at www.extendicare.com, and which is incorporated by reference in this press release.

Please see below for additional information related to certain of the Non-GAAP measures included herein:

“Pro forma total debt to Adjusted EBITDA” is a Non-GAAP ratio and is defined as total debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA. Total debt consists of all short-term and long-term credit facilities, mortgages and lease liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet, excluding deferred financing costs.

Reconciliations for certain non-GAAP measures included in this press release are provided below.
