NextGen Healthcare Sets the Record Straight


NextGen (News - Alert) Healthcare, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXGN), a leading provider of ambulatory-focused technology solutions, today announced that it has filed an investor presentation with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders ("Annual Meeting"). The presentation is also available at www.nextgen.com/annual-meeting, along with additional shareholder information regarding the Annual Meeting.

The NextGen Healthcare Board of Directors issued the following statement:

NextGen Healthcare has never been better positioned for significant, sustainable growth and value creation. Over the past five years, we have transformed NextGen Healthcare into a market leader with a winning platform, highly satisfied clients and exceptionally engaged employees. Our record revenues and strong momentum in recurring revenues demonstrate the success our sales force and commercial growth team is achieving. We appreciate the work and dedication of all employees across the organization. With David Sides as the Company's new CEO, we are confident we have the right team, solutions portfolio and operating and financial foundation we need to be not just a market leader, but a market shaper.

Rather than support this progress and enable management to fully focus on the business, Sheldon Razin and his dissident director candidate continue to pursue his disruptive proxy fight, in an effort to take de facto control of the Company. Make no mistake - Sheldon's proxy fight is about self-preservation and self-enrichment. We are providing this additional presentation to correct the record because our shareholders deserve the facts and the truth behind Sheldon's bid for control of four of the nine seats on the NextGen Healthcare Board.

NextGen Healthcare urges shareholders to discard any blue proxy cards they receive from Sheldon Razin and vote "FOR" ALL proposals listed on the WHITE proxy card, including voting to elect NextGen Healthcare's nine highly qualified director nominees and our proposals to reincorporate in Delaware and eliminate cumulative voting.

Time is short. Please vote now in order to have your vote recorded promptly. Simply follow the instructions to vote by Internet on your WHITE proxy card or WHITE voting instruction form from your bank or brokerage firm. If you get email delivery of your proxy materials, the email will contain a link or instructions on how to vote your shares.

Important:

Approving the reincorporation and cumulative voting proposals will effectively result in giving NextGen Healthcare shareholders the opportunity to vote "FOR" ALL candidates on the NextGen Healthcare slate of nine director nominees under plurality voting, which is a "one share, one vote" standard. Only the nine nominees with the most votes will be elected. Eliminating cumulative voting is good governance and provides important benefits, including ensuring that a dissident minority shareholder like Sheldon is unable to cumulate shares and vote as a block and override the will of the majority to elect all nine nominees.

Forward Looking Statements

This communication may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including but not limited to, statements regarding future events including but not limited to the COVID-19 pandemic, developments in the healthcare sector and regulatory framework, the Company's future performance, as well as management's expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates or projections relating to the future (including, without limitation, statements concerning revenue, net income, and earnings per share). Risks and uncertainties exist that may cause the results to differ materially from those set forth in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the anticipated results to differ from those described in the forward-looking statements and additional risks and uncertainties are set forth in Part I, Item A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including but not limited to: volatility and uncertainty in the global economy, financial markets and on our customers in light of the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, including the potential (i) slowdown or shutdown of preventive and elective medical procedures, (ii) delay in the contracting for additional products and services by our customers and (iii) delay in the sales cycle for new customers; a determination by the jury that the Company has liability in litigation advanced by a former director and shareholder; the volume and timing of systems sales and installations; length of sales cycles and the installation process; the possibility that products will not achieve or sustain market acceptance; seasonal patterns of sales and customer buying behavior; impact of incentive payments under The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act on sales and the ability of the Company to meet continued certification requirements; uncertainties related to the future impact of U.S. tax reform; the impact of governmental and regulatory agency investigations; the development by competitors of new or superior technologies; the timing, cost and success or failure of new product and service introductions, development and product upgrade releases; undetected errors or bugs in software; product liability; changing economic, political or regulatory influences in the health-care industry; changes in product-pricing policies; availability of third-party products and components; competitive pressures including product offerings, pricing and promotional activities; the Company's ability or inability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the impact of any proxy contest at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; possible regulation of the Company's software by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; changes of accounting estimates and assumptions used to prepare the prior periods' financial statements; disruptions caused by acquisitions of companies, products, or technologies; the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken in response thereto could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations; and general economic conditions. A significant portion of the Company's quarterly sales of software product licenses and computer hardware is concluded in the last month of a fiscal quarter, generally with a concentration of such revenues earned in the final ten business days of that month. Due to these and other factors, the Company's revenues and operating results are very difficult to forecast. A major portion of the Company's costs and expenses, such as personnel and facilities, are of a fixed nature and, accordingly, a shortfall or decline in quarterly and/or annual revenues typically results in lower profitability or losses. As a result, comparison of the Company's period-to-period financial performance is not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indicator of future performance. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
