TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mednow Inc. (TSXV: MNOW) (OTCQX: MDNWF), Canada’s on-demand virtual pharmacy, announced today that Liver Care Canada Inc. has permanently ceased ordinary course business operations. London Pharmacare Inc. will commence its closure in the near-future.

Liver Care Canada Inc. and London Pharmacare Inc. (together, “Liver Care”)’s shutdown is part of Mednow’s ongoing efforts to improve its business by, among other things, eliminating underperforming business lines, in accordance with its previous announcements.

Liver Care is focused on ensuring patient care is not adversely affected by its decision to terminate operations. Over the past year, Liver Care’s business has been suffering from increased cash burn, which resulted in London Pharmacare Inc. being in technical breach of certain financial covenants under their credit facilities, which had approximately $2.8 million outstanding. London Pharmacare Inc.’s lender proceeded with removing approximately $240,000 on May 2, 2023 from its accounts without prior notice, capped its credit facilities and terminated availability under Mednow’s credit card facility in the amount of approximately $20,000. London Pharmcare Inc. is in discussions with the lender with regards to the actions taken. Infusicare Canada Inc. is in technical breach of certain financial covenants under their credit facilities under which approximately $950,000 is outstanding, and is in discussions with their lender.
