Here we go again - Dialogue Health Technologies, yet another virtual health company, filed its preliminary prospectus to list on the TSX Index. Although financial details include price and expected $$ raised have not yet been released, this will be a very interesting one to watch. The company has some big players backing it such as Sunlife Financial (TSX:SLF). Combined wiht the other large institutional shareholders, they own 63% of the pre-IPO outstanding shares.
Unlike some of the more recent virtual tech IPOs, Dialogue is a well established company. Take a look at these numbers:
These are much better than any of the newly listed virtual health care stocks. Unlike some of the others as well, Dialogue is truly a virtual health care pureplay. In 2020, it also expanded to Germany which opens up a slew of other international opportunities in the EU.
Once pricing is released we will provide more details, but after the slew of disappointing health care IPOs recently - we think this one will stand out.
