BRIEF VOICE MESSAGE

 

Cotiviti Team,

 

This is Doug Williams. I have some important news to share with you, which I’ve also shared through email. 

 

I am pleased to let you know that today we announced that we are entering a definitive agreement to be acquired by Verscend, a healthcare data analytics company. We believe this transaction will enhance  our efforts to deliver even more value to our clients. 

 

Verscend is a portfolio company of Veritas Capital, a private equity company,  who will acquire all Cotiviti’s common stock and outstanding debt. When closed, the transaction will take Cotiviti from a publicly-traded company to a privately held company. Because the transaction is subject to shareholder approval and regulatory review, we expect this transaction will close in the fourth quarter of this year.

 

Please be sure to check your email for a message from me that explains this change in more detail and our next steps. 

 

This agreement represents the start of an exciting new chapter for our work.

 

Thank you for your continued focus on delivering client value, and for the great work you do, every day.

This document is not a substitute for the proxy statement or any other document that may be filed by Cotiviti with the SEC. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, COTIVITI’S STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS FILED BY COTIVITI WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE THEREIN BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND THE PARTIES TO THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Investors and stockholders may obtain a free copy of the proxy statement and other documents Cotiviti files with the SEC (when available) through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

Participants in the Solicitation

 

This document does not constitute a solicitation of proxy, an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities. Cotiviti and its directors, executive officers and certain employees and other persons may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from Cotiviti’s stockholders in connection with the proposed merger.

To the extent the holdings of Cotiviti securities by Cotiviti’s directors and executive officers have changed since the amounts set forth in Cotiviti’s proxy statement for its 2018 annual meeting of stockholders, such changes have been or will be reflected on Statements of Change in Ownership on Form 4 filed with the SEC.
