Item 8.01

Other Events.

As previously disclosed, on September 2, 2022, Signify Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CVS Pharmacy, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation (“Parent”), and Noah Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Subsidiary”), pursuant to which, among other things, Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into the Company and whereupon Merger Subsidiary will cease to exist and the Company will be the surviving corporation in the Merger and will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Merger”).

The completion of the Merger is conditioned upon, among other things, the expiration or termination of the waiting period applicable to the consummation of the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as may be amended from time to time (the “HSR Act”). As previously disclosed, on September 19, 2022, each of the Company and Parent filed its respective Notification and Report Form with the U.S. Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (collectively, the “Agencies”) under the HSR Act.

On October 19, 2022, the Company and Parent each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (collectively, the “Second Request”) from the DOJ in connection with the DOJ’s review of the Merger. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed under the HSR Act until the 30th day after substantial compliance by the Company and Parent with the Second Request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the DOJ or extended by the parties to the Merger. The parties have been working cooperatively with the DOJ and will continue to do so.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This communication and any documents referred to in this communication contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). Such forward-looking statements include statements relating to the Company’s strategy, goals, the value of, timing and prospects of the proposed transaction. These forward-looking statements are based on the Company management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and may be identified by terms such as “believe,” “predict,” “target,” “contemplate,” “potential,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” or similar expressions and the negatives of those terms. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company, may include statements regarding the Company’s business operations, assets, valuations, financial conditions, results of operations, future plans, strategies, and expectations, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including: (a) risks related to the satisfaction of the conditions to closing (including the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals and the requisite approval of the stockholders of the Company) in the anticipated timeframe or at all; (b) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement for the proposed transaction; (c) risks related to disruption of management’s attention from the Company’s ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction; (d) disruption from the proposed transaction making it difficult to maintain business and operational relationships, including retaining and hiring key personnel and maintaining relationships with the Company’s customers, vendors and others with whom it does business (and the potential failure of the Company’s existing customers to continue or renew their contracts with the Company or increase in the number of customer cancellations); (e) the risk that any announcements related to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the Company’s stock price, credit ratings or operating results; (f) significant transaction costs; and (g) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company related to the merger agreement or the proposed transaction. The risks and uncertainties may be amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic (and related variants), which has caused significant economic uncertainty. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic (and related variants) impacts the Company’s businesses, operations, and financial results, including the duration and magnitude of such effects, will depend on numerous factors, which are unpredictable, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the business of the Company described in the “Risk Factors” section of its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation to, and does not intend to, update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, unless required by law. The Company gives no assurance that it will achieve its expectations.
