Closing of Previously Announced Restructuring Transaction in Connection with CCAA Proceedings

MONTREAL, July 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PREMIER HEALTH OF AMERICA INC. (TSX-V: PHA) (“Premier Health” or the “Company”) announces that, in connection with the restructuring proceedings initiated on June 23, 2026 by the Royal Bank of Canada (the “Applicant”) in its capacity as a secured creditor (the “CCAA Proceedings”) and the Court-approved restructuring transaction announced on July 3, 2026, Polar Valley Investments Limited (“Polar”) has successfully closed the acquisition of all of the equity interests in three affiliates of the Company, namely Solutions Staffing Inc. (“SSI”), Canadian Health Care Agency Ltd. (“CHCA”) and Premier Soin Nordik Inc. / Premier Health Nordik Inc. (“Nordik Québec”) (the “Transaction”).

As a result of the Transaction, Polar became the sole holder of the securities of SSI, CHCA and Nordik Québec. Each of SSI, CHCA and Nordik Québec retained the assets and liabilities necessary to continue the going concern operations of their respective businesses and ceased to be debtors in the CCAA Proceedings.

In connection with the closing of the Transaction, Guy D’Aoust has ceased to act as Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Clients of SSI, CHCA and Nordik Québec should expect no changes to day-to-day operations and service levels. SSI, CHCA and Nordik Québec remain focused on delivering reliable, high-quality healthcare solutions and ensuring continuity of service for the organizations and communities served.

The CCAA Proceedings remain ongoing, as FTI Consulting Canada Inc., in its capacity as Court-appointed monitor (the “Monitor”), addresses the Company’s remaining assets, liabilities, and obligations, and works toward winding down the Company’s corporate structure in anticipation of terminating the CCAA Proceedings.

Documents relating to the restructuring process, such as Court orders and Monitor’s reports, are available on the Monitor’s website at https://cfcanada.fticonsulting.com/PHA. For more comprehensive information regarding the CCAA Proceedings and the Transaction, readers are invited to consult the full text of all of these documents.

Trading in the Company’s common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”) has been halted. The common shares will remain halted until such date that the TSXV determines.
