Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern

 

We draw attention to Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements, which indicates that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

a bright spot I noticed in the filings....Zed Therapeutics

https://zedtherapeutics.com/

 

Fingers crossed Zed works out.

 

It appears MyCare and Purposely aren't getting any traction.

 

For being live a year Purposely has hardly any users on the site.

 

It is concerning how much money they are throwing at Mycare/GoEvisit. Look at the reviews for the GoEvisit app on the Apple and Google store, compare that to there competitor Akira. The # of reviews for Akira has grown quite a big and the # of reviews for GoEvisit has hardly moved. GoEvisit is not getting any traction. Appears to be another case of throwing good money after bad like Sequant Re.

 

This game is 1 in 10 situation if you are good at it. When you only have capital to do a few the odds are not good.

 

Prasad, as a shareholder I would happy to provide free input you can take or leave on the DD you are doing for these tech startups. I have been through a bunch.

My investment in Sanjeev's business is the most expensive lesson I had in my life. Lesson learned. You can have the integrity, the intelligence, the knowledge about Buffett, the great determination to build a community around it, etc. Ultimately, all these great qualities are worthless without enough discipline.

Wow... to think I almost went in to MPIC 10 years ago.  Big eye opener.  I can't help but think the game has changed dramatically.  Even Warren Buffet is having a tough slog in the markets the past 10 years by making a ton of uninspired bets.

Sanjeev,  Has there been any increase or interest in the Evisit business?  Seems this could be leveraged and in high demand at these times.

 

Yes, in an immense way!  We've struggled for years trying to scale up and then the perfect storm hit...Covid-19!  Please see below, which went out to a select list of 25 contacts, and will go out to another 25 this week.

 

These are extraordinary times we live in, and Covid-19 has become the black swan event that the world dreaded!  We wish everyone well as we face this global challenge.  Like any other crisis, we will come through this.

 

Just under two years ago, Premier, along with Liz Bryant and Jim Viccars, helped launch a telemedicine business called www.goevisit.com.  We operate 24/7 in all provinces other than Quebec.  Like most new interfaces, it was a challenge getting consumers to give telemedicine a try…we struggled and struggled until the current black swan event hit!

 

• About two weeks ago, we closed a contract with People Corp, which planned on onboarding their 1.1M insurance members over the next three years…in the last 24 hours, they’ve said that they want to onboard all 1.1M members immediately.

• We will be the first telemedicine business with a Covid-19 assessment module…available this week.

• We are close to signing a second large insurer!

• We are in 30 Save-on Foods pharmacies and working on expanding to all of their stores.

• We are in discussions with Rexall to get into their pharmacies and client base.

• Currently, we can have prescriptions sent to any pharmacy the patient desires, and can also have prescriptions delivered through two partnerships we have with Drug Smart Pharmacy and Alliance Pharmacy.

• We are seeking partnerships with credit card companies, travel agencies, organizational bodies, etc.

 

We are seeking either a single investor or consortium of investors to invest up to $5M for us to expand into the U.S. and continue to grow the Canadian business. 

 

• We have a Spanish module ready for the U.S., and can have operations running there in 90 days, with the Covid-19 assessment module operating as a standalone clinic immediately. 

• We can also have modules for international countries set up rapidly as well…such as India, China, etc, and would be interested in investment partners for international expansion.

 

I believe we have a window of about 1 year to expand rapidly simply due to the sheer volume of assessments that will be required.  As well as clinics, hospitals being overwhelmed and front-line staff getting sick or becoming overworked.  In British Columbia alone, the provincial government today announced that they will be focused on dealing with emergency circumstances, while all elective surgery and non-emergency visits will be delayed.  That means hospitals will be dealing almost solely with Covid-19, and simple day-to-day medical needs will not be met by the government and hospitals. 

 

That year of rapid growth will give us a substantial presence in North America and ground goevisit’s long-term prospects after the crisis is over.  This pandemic will have a disruptive effect on the long-term way we interact socially, and almost certainly on how close-contact medical treatment is conducted over time…long waits at the doctor’s office with people carrying various viruses/illnesses will become a thing of the past.

 

I encourage you to read the attached presentation.  Liz and Jim are available for teleconference meetings at your request.  We will move forward as soon as we’ve raised the first $1M of investment capital and will close the current offering at no more than $5M. 

 

Thank you for your friendship and support!  I wish you well at this time in history!

 

If you are an accredited investor, and have any interest, please contact Liz Bryant (liz@goevisit.com) or myself (sparsad@pdh-inc.com) and we will send you the presentation and subscription documents.  Cheers!

Sanjeev - If you're able, can you comment on the competitive landscape for the business in the US? How does goEvisit differ from Teladoc, Amwell, or dr+ on demand, for example? What are the barriers to entry and regulatory burdens that come from trying to enter 50 different states? Does the business compete for doctors as well as patients?

Premier Diversified Holdings Inc. Announces Sale of Initio Medical Group Inc.

Sale of Initio Medical Group Inc.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, June 05, 2020 -- Premier Diversified Holdings Inc. ("Premier" or the "Company") (TSXV:

PDH) announces that it has entered into a share purchase agreement dated June 2, 2020 with a privately-held numbered

company incorporated in Ontario (the "Buyer") for the sale of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Initio Medical Group

Inc. ("Initio").

Initio is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Premier which provides medical diagnostic scans at a clinic situated in Burnaby, B.C.

Premier is selling its entire interest in Initio for a purchase price of $200,000. The buyer is a privately-held Ontario company

which is not a Non-Arm's Length Party of the Issuer.

Initio is currently operating at a loss and has experienced a sharp decline in business during restrictions related to the novel

coronavirus pandemic. The President of Premier, Sanjeev Parsad, commented as follows, "Our goal has always been to

provide British Columbians with the choice to obtain a PET/CT scan at Initio, a private PET/CT facility. At this time, we are not

in a position to continue operations of Initio. We feel the best way forward for the Initio staff and for the patient community in

B.C. is to sell Initio to a buyer who can carry on the business. We wish to see Initio succeed and wish the new team well in

its future endeavours."

Sanjeev, I am not sure if you can reveal any updates on GoEvisit.  Does news imply that the value of GoEvisit is growing? 

 

Any comment would be helpful, but I don't you to break any TSX disclosure rules.

I am still not seeing any signs of life on the internet for GoEvisit picking up steam. The app still has only 32 ratings vs 10K ratings for the Akira Healthcare on demand app. Google trends seems to show fits and starts for search traffic but nothing consistent. No news or PR. The last update Prasad provided sounds great but I am skeptical that any progress has been made in the business. Anyone in Canada see any anecdotal evidence or have any scuttlebutt that indicates otherwise?

The company I work for (multinational nasdaq listed) has Akira as part of medical benefit here in Canada FYI. I see that many other companies also use Akira.

Thanks for the info. I am rooting for Sanjeev and have been a holder for 5 or 6 years. So definitely interested in success here. But at the moment it’s hard to be optimistic on the GoEvisit investment. Besides the other observations, the CTO on LinkedIn is a part time contractor to the company with other irons in the fire. The CEO self publishes children’s books. Not that there is anything wrong with either of those things. But a startup requires 100% focus of the founders and leaders. Reading in between the lines I get the impression they view this as a hobby or part time endeavor. Hope I am wrong.

A lot of potential catalyst happening over the next 3-6 months

 

1. The amended agreement changed the previous secured loan made to MMI by increasing the principal amount which may be loaned by Premier to MMI from $500,000 to up to $610,000 (Which the company is getting a 3% interest spread between what they borrowed vs what they are receiving)
