Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: NVOS) is pioneering a holistic approach to patient-first health and wellness through a multidisciplinary healthcare ecosystem of services and product innovation. NVOS offers an essential and differentiated solution to deliver, or intend to deliver, these services and products through the integration of medical technology, advanced therapeutics, and rehabilitative science.
NVOS believes that “decentralizing” healthcare, through the integration of medical technology and interconnectivity offers an essential solution to the fundamental transformation of healthcare delivery. Specific to non-critical care, ongoing advancements in both medical technology and inter-connectivity are allowing for a shift of the patient/practitioner relationship to the patient’s home and away from on-site visits to primary medical centers with mass-services. This acceleration of “ease-of-access” in the patient/practitioner interaction for non-critical care diagnosis and subsequent treatment minimizes the degradation of non-critical health conditions to critical conditions as well as allowing for more cost-effective healthcare distribution.
The NVOS decentralized healthcare business model is centered on three primary pillars to best support the transformation of non-catastrophic healthcare delivery to patients and consumers. The first pillar is building a foundation of traditional hands-on healthcare delivery, through small and micro footprint sized clinic facilities, within a significant service delivery network. The second pillar is the development, integration, and deployment of sophisticated technology, through interconnectivity, which expands the reach of healthcare related service, beyond the traditional clinic location, to geographic areas not readily providing advanced healthcare service to date, including the patient’s home. The third pillar is the development and distribution of effective wellness product solutions allowing for the customization of patient preventative care remedies and ultimately a healthier population.
Additionally, the NVOS science first approach to product innovation further emphasizes the NVOS mandate to create and provide over-the-counter preventative and maintenance care solutions. Innovation in science as represented by proprietary technology assures NVOS of continued cutting edge advancement in patient first platforms.
– NVOS Signs LOIs to Acquire Seven Pharmacies in the United States
On August 30th NVOS announced the signing of non-binding Letters of Intent (“LOI”) to acquire seven pharmacies in the United States. The proposed all-stock transactions contemplate the acquisition, by NVOS, of a 50% interest in each pharmacy. NVOS expects to negotiate and enter into definitive agreements and to close the acquisitions during the second half of 2021.
Robert Mattacchione, NVOS Chairman and CEO, stated, “This acquisition of seven pharmacies, which collectively generated approximately $55 million in annualized revenue in 2020, would establish our footprint in the U.S. with locations in Florida, Virginia, and Arizona. We believe that the daily patient interaction will allow us to leverage our telehealth platform, mobile application (NovoConnect), on-site diagnostic capabilities such as Zgraft, and customized nutrition and wellness product offerings, establishing Novo as a vertically integrated, multidisciplinary health care provider. As part of the proposed all-stock transactions, current management would remain in place to continue operating the pharmacies day-to-day, with a more unique Novo patient product and service offering at each of their locations.”
– Exclusive Licensing Agreement with Performance Inspired Nutrition to Manufacture & Distribute in the Middle East
On August 18th NVOS announced that its subsidiary, Acenzia Inc. signed an exclusive 10-year licensing agreement with Performance Inspired Nutrition (“PI Nutrition”) to manufacture and distribute nutritional products, natural supplements, proteins, vitamins and other PI Nutrition branded health and wellness products in the Middle East.
Co-Founded by multiple-time Oscar-award nominee, Mark Wahlberg, and proven industry executive, Tom Dowd, PI Nutrition was created to help inspire people to live a more active and healthier lifestyle by offering honest, all-natural, and trustworthy products. PI Nutrition has held the highest standards and quality control of its manufacturing to ensure the best and safest products for its loyal consumer base.

Robert Mattacchione, NVOS Chairman and CEO, stated, “Novo’s ecosystem is being built strategically to offer an essential and differentiated solution to health and wellness globally. Without the world-class manufacturing capabilities of Acenzia, an exclusive agreement with PI Nutrition would not be possible. We look forward to partnering with a well-respected, high-quality brand like PI Nutrition as together we begin to offer consumers globally advanced nutritional products and supplements.”
Tom Dowd, PI Nutrition CEO/Co-Founder, added, “We have huge international demand, and we are glad we found a respected and proven partner to help bring our amazing products to the Middle East. This is an exciting time for PI Nutrition as we continue to expand and introduce consumers to better products which they can trust to support their healthy lifestyle.”
