On June 13, 2024, Novo Integrated Sciences, Inc. announced the receipt of a Standby Letter of Credit (SBLC) issued by HSBC, which is set to be delivered via Swift MT760.

Additionally, the proceeds are expected to support the company's share repurchase program. CEO and Board Chairman Robert Mattacchione expressed enthusiasm for the progress towards the acquisition and the company's commitment to raising non-dilutive capital. Novo Integrated Sciences, which is pioneering a holistic approach to healthcare through a multidisciplinary ecosystem, plans to use advanced medical technology and rehabilitative science to decentralize non-catastrophic healthcare delivery.
