Mark White, Interim CEO of FOXO Technologies,
“This acquisition represents a transformative step for FOXO
Technologies. Myrtle Recovery Centers and Scott County Community
Hospital are established businesses with opportunities for
continued growth. Moreover, these transactions bring meaningful
cash flow to FOXO. Our plan is to considerably grow these revenues
over the next couple of years, including from the rights we secured
to expand these businesses into another East Tennessee property
owned by Rennova. Furthermore, Rennova’s history in diagnostic
testing, coupled with its expertise in healthcare IT and software,
creates additional opportunities for FOXO to expand and deliver our
current technologies to the marketplace. We believe these
transactions represent a key inflection point for FOXO by combining
our innovative epigenetic and AI-based epigenetic solutions, such
as the VITHAR™ AI Health Coach, with their robust healthcare
services to bring an unprecedented level of care to patients. We
look forward to providing further updates as we advance these
important transactions."
“We are delighted to enter into these
transactions with FOXO,” said Seamus Lagan, the Chief Executive
Officer of Rennova Health Inc. “The two agreements have the
potential to drive significant value and synergies for both our
respective companies. In particular, we believe this transaction
will enable us to rapidly expand our core business. In addition, by
combining our established healthcare operations with FOXO’s
expertise in AI and epigenetics, we foresee a powerful synergy that
will enhance our service offerings and broaden our impact in the
healthcare sector. This partnership is not only a strategic
alignment for growth but also a major step forward in our mission
to provide top-tier healthcare services and improve patient
outcomes.”
