Management Commentary
Mike Marchelletta, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“The third quarter marks a transformative period for Jack Nathan Health. While our Canadian clinic and license operations contributed to our overall revenue growth of 16% year-to-date, the completion of the sale of our Canadian operations post-quarter-end allows us to streamline our focus on our Mexican business. We are committed to driving growth through operational excellence, including the addition of 7 new clinics in Mexico this quarter, and exploring opportunities in the MedSpa sector, which provides an exciting avenue for strategic expansion and diversification.”

Revenues for the nine months ended October 31, 2024, were $15,919,650 (2023 - $13,735,215), representing an increase of $2,184,435 or 16%. The growth was driven by the Company’s Mexican clinic operations, which added 7 new clinics during the quarter, bringing the total in Mexico to 168 corporate-owned and operated clinics.
Clinic operations revenues of $4,690,698 accounted for 89% of total revenues for the three months ended October 31, 2024, compared to $4,246,386 or 86% of revenues for the same period in 2023. Year-to-date clinic operations revenues totaled $14,276,338, representing 90% of total revenues, compared to $11,653,262 or 85% for the same period in 2023.
Loss from operations for the nine months ended October 31, 2024, was $4,462,559 (2023 - $3,838,571), reflecting an increase in operating loss of $623,988, driven primarily by higher operating expenses related to associate fees, clinic operations, and professional services.
Strategic Milestone: Sale of Canadian Business
Subsequent to the quarter-end, effective December 1, 2024, the Company completed the sale (the “Asset Sale”) of its Canadian clinic operations and license business to WELL Health Technologies Corp. (“WELL”) for $5,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). Approximately 57% of the proceeds from the Purchase Price for the Asset Sale were utilized to (i) settle Purchase Price advances made by WELL prior to closing the Asset Sale (the “Closing”) to support the Company’s cash flow requirements and business continuity needs pursuant to the previously reported interim financing agreement entered into between WELL and the Company, (ii) pay transaction costs (mainly legal costs) incurred in connection with the Asset Sale and certain accounts payable, and (iii) pay severance costs for staff and senior management who are not transferring to WELL and not remaining with the Company post-Closing. In connection with the Asset Sale, over $15,000,000 in debt owed by the Company to Wal-Mart Canada Corp. has been extinguished. These transactions significantly improved the Company’s balance sheet and liquidity position. The proceeds will support the Company’s retained operations in Mexico and the MedSpa sector.
Shares Outstanding
As of the date of this press release, the Company has outstanding 87,099,159 common shares, 1,650,000 stock options and 335,004 DSUs. The secured convertible debenture of the Company which had been held by Wal-Mart Canada Corp. was cancelled and terminated in connection with the sale of the Company’s Canadian business referred to above, resulting in the elimination of 152,380,952 potentially issuable shares that had been so issuable pursuant to a conversion of the debenture and exercise of the underlying warrants. As well, as part of the severance arrangements referred to above, 8,500,000 restricted share units previously outstanding under the Company’s Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan have been cancelled, further enhancing the Company’s capital structure.
