Veradigm Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 with respect to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 (the “Q2 2024 Form 10-Q”). The Company has determined that it is unable to file its Q2 2024 Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period provided by the applicable rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) without unreasonable effort and expense.
On March 22, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”), after discussion with management, reached a determination that the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as of and for the interim periods ended March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021 included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, respectively, and as of and for the interim periods ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022 included in its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, should no longer be relied upon because of misstatements to the Company’s previously reported revenue resulting from certain internal control failures. The internal control failures identified at that time primarily stemmed from a software tool implemented by the Company in order to comply with the requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s rule Accounting Standards Codification 606 and associated accounting processes. Separately, the Audit Committee of the Board began independently investigating other matters relating to the Company’s financial reporting, internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls, which investigation (the “Audit Committee Investigation”) is ongoing.
Because of the internal control failures, including those described above, and the ongoing Audit Committee Investigation, the Company has been unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Form 10-Q”), its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023 (the “Q2 2023 Form 10-Q”), its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 (the “Q3 2023 Form 10-Q” and, together with the Q1 2023 Form 10-Q and the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q, the “2023 Form 10-Qs”), its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”) or its Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2024 (the “Q1 2024 Form 10-Q” and, together with the 2022 Form 10-K, the 2023 Form 10-Qs and the 2023 Form 10-K, the “Historical Late Filings”). Accordingly, the Company has also not yet filed its Q2 2024 Form 10-Q.
On February 27, 2024, the Company received a notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel determined to delist the common stock of the Company from Nasdaq due to the Company remaining noncompliant with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the SEC, and Nasdaq Listing Rule 5620(a), which requires companies listing common stock to hold an annual meeting of stockholders no later than one year after the end of the company’s fiscal year. On April 25, 2024, Nasdaq filed a Form 25 with the SEC to delist the common stock of the Company from Nasdaq.
The Company is working diligently to file the Historical Late Filings and the Q2 2024 Form 10-Q; however, no assurance can be given as to the definitive date on which such periodic reports will be filed or whether the Company will ultimately return to being listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market in the future.

| (2) | Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s). Yes ☐ No ☒ | |||||||||||
| During the preceding twelve months, the Q2 2023 Form 10-Q, Q3 2023 Form 10-Q, 2023 Form 10-K and Q1 2024 Form 10-Q have not been filed. In addition, the 2022 Form 10-K and Q1 2023 Form 10-Q have not been filed. | ||||||||||||
| (3) | Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? Yes ☒ No ☐ | |||||||||||
| If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made. | ||||||||||||
As of the date hereof, the Company anticipates that the cumulative impact of the internal control failures noted above will not be expected to exceed $20 million and will not materially exceed 3% of full year revenue from continuing operations for 2021 and 2022. A portion of this impact is also expected to relate to 2020, and the Company is reviewing whether a restatement of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended 2020 will be required. The Company has determined that the impact for 2021 will require a restatement of the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, and these restated amounts will accompany the 2022 Form 10-K filing. The Company also expects that there will be an impact on the Company’s revenue from discontinued operations for the corresponding periods.
As of the date hereof, the potential adjustments to the Company’s previously issued financial statements prepared in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles that have been identified as a result of the Audit Committee Investigation are not affecting cash. However, the Audit Committee Investigation remains ongoing, and additional adjustments may be identified.
The internal control failures noted above relate to fiscal year 2022 and prior periods, and the anticipated adjustments due to the Audit Committee Investigation relate to fiscal year 2023 and prior periods. The Company is not aware of any other significant change in results of operations from the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, that will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the Q2 2024 Form 10-Q, except that there will be an impact to revenue from the Company’s customers’ inability to use network connections affected by the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident. The approximate impact to the Company’s revenue in the second quarter of 2024 associated with the Change Healthcare cybersecurity incident is currently estimated to be less than $2 million.
