Atlanta, GA, Oct. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: STRM), a leading provider of solutions that enable healthcare providers to improve financial performance, announced today it is executing a strategic restructuring. The strategic restructuring initiatives are designed to reduce expenses and preserve cash while maintaining the Company’s ability to expand its high-margin SaaS business.

As part of the strategic restructuring initiatives, the Company has implemented a reduction in force of approximately 26 employees (approximately 24% of its workforce). Streamline expects to record a one-time restructuring expense of approximately $0.8 to $1.2 million related to the reduction in force, which includes severance payments and benefits to affected employees. The Company expects the expense associated with the strategic restructuring to be substantially recognized by the end of fiscal 2023. As a result of these strategic restructuring initiatives, the Company expects to realize annualized cost savings of approximately $5.8 million.

The Company also announced the receipt of a termination notice from a legacy client with an effective date of December 31, 2023. At the time of receipt of the termination notice, the Company was recognizing approximately $4.5 million in annualized revenue from the legacy client. As a result of this termination notice, the Company’s management assessed various options and determined to accelerate the implementation of the Company’s planned restructuring initiatives.

The Company is suspending previous guidance related to Booked SaaS ACV and anticipates providing updates on future expectations in conjunction with the release of its fiscal third quarter 2023 financial results.
