NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

DFB Healthcare Acquisitions Corp. (“DFB”) (NASDAQ: DFBH, DFBHU, DFBHW), a special purpose acquisition company sponsored by Deerfield Management and Richard Barasch, announced today that DFB’s stockholders have voted to approve all of the proposals related to the proposed business combination with AdaptHealth Holdings LLC (“Adapt”), the third largest distributor of home medical equipment in the United States, which will result in Adapt becoming a partially owned subsidiary of DFB (the “Business Combination”). DFB’s Board of Directors had previously approved the Business Combination and recommended that its stockholders vote in favor of all of the proposals relating to the Business Combination.

In addition to approving the Agreement and Plan of Merger, DFB’s stockholders approved proposals to (i) amend the amended and restated certificate of incorporation of DFB to, among other things, change DFB’s name to AdaptHealth Corp. and remove certain provisions related to DFB’s status as a blank check company; (ii) issue certain securities for purposes of complying with applicable listing rules of The Nasdaq Capital Market; (iii) approve the AdaptHealth Corp. 2019 Stock Incentive Plan; (iv) approve the AdaptHealth Corp. 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan; and (v) elect seven directors to the board of DFB (Richard Barasch, Alan Quasha, Terence Connors, Dr. Susan Weaver, Dale Wolf, Luke McGee and Joshua Parnes).

The Business Combination is expected to close on Friday, November 8, 2019. Upon closing, Adapt will become a partially owned subsidiary of DFB and DFB will be renamed AdaptHealth Corp. as of the same date. Following the closing of the Business Combination, it is expected that the combined company’s Class A common stock and warrants will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbols “AHCO” and “AHCOW”, respectively. The combined company’s units, which had been traded under the ticker symbol “DFBHU,” are expected to separate into their components of one share of common stock and one-third of one warrant to purchase a share of common stock on November 11, 2019.
