LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RadNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDNT) (“RadNet” or the “Company”), a national leader in providing high-quality, cost-effective outpatient diagnostic imaging services and a global developer of digital health solutions, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire ONRAD, Inc. (ONRAD). ONRAD, through its more than 130 contracted radiologists, is a provider of teleradiology and in-hospital professional radiology staffing services for hospitals, health systems and other diagnostic imaging sites of care. The transaction is expected to close in early 2027 and is subject to customary regulatory review and closing conditions. Upon closing, ONRAD shareholders will receive a cash payment of $350 million and 5 million shares of RadNet, Inc. common stock, subject to customary adjustments. In addition, an earnout of up to $210 million in value will be payable upon achievement of target EBITDA for 2027. The earnout is payable in cash, RadNet common stock, or a combination thereof, at RadNet’s election.
“This is the next step in building an imaging company with comprehensive solutions that brings technology, radiology professional services and imaging operations together to address some of healthcare’s most pressing challenges and needs,” said Dr. Howard Berger, President and CEO of RadNet. “Connecting RadNet’s established AI-enabled digital health technology and imaging center operational expertise with ONRAD’s teleradiology and professional staffing solutions unites the capabilities needed to address the entire continuum of diagnostic imaging under one company. The acquisition will enhance RadNet’s portfolio of solutions for hospitals and health systems, outpatient freestanding centers, urgent care facilities, freestanding emergency departments and physician offices.”
Dr. Berger continued, “I welcome ONRAD’s executive team, its contracted radiologists and all other ONRAD team members into the RadNet family. This transaction is a significant additional step in leading our industry forward and demonstrating the impact that a transformation to workflow solutions in diagnostic imaging can have in advancing early detection, population health and improved patient outcomes.”
Through its contracted radiologists, ONRAD provides remote teleradiology final-read interpretations across many healthcare settings and in-hospital professional radiology staffing services, including interventional radiology, for hospitals and health systems. Upon closing, ONRAD will become the foundation for RadNet's third reportable operating segment, Radiology Professional Services. With the addition of this third operating segment, RadNet becomes a comprehensive radiology services and solutions provider, addressing the imaging continuum across the full range of care settings, including hospitals, freestanding ambulatory outpatient centers, primary and specialty care physician offices and standalone urgent care and emergency department facilities.
Strategic Rationale
- Connects three complementary businesses to provide comprehensive imaging solutions. Combining RadNet outpatient imaging operations and DeepHealth AI-enabled digital health solutions with the ONRAD radiology professional services platform will bring together comprehensive expertise in the diagnostic imaging industry within one company. Integrating these capabilities for customers and partners across all diagnostic imaging settings is expected to create efficiencies, improve patient care and lower costs in an unequaled approach.
- Expands RadNet into hospital-based radiology. Hospitals and health systems account for more than 50% of U.S. diagnostic imaging volume.(2) ONRAD will provide RadNet with an established platform to support in-hospital and remote professional radiology interpretation services while also expanding the RadNet offerings to its existing joint venture partners.
- Addresses growing market demand. U.S. imaging demand growth is outpacing the supply of trained radiologists. With ONRAD, RadNet will be positioned to further help address this gap by integrating AI-enabled technology with teleradiology and professional staffing services, creating opportunities to transform workflows, support case prioritization and better match interpretation capacity to demand.
- Adds a fast-growing, high-margin capital-light business. ONRAD has demonstrated consistent annual revenue growth between 10% and 20% over the last several years with Adjusted EBITDA(1) margins exceeding 30%. RadNet believes ONRAD will require very little capital to maintain and grow organically.
“For 20 years, ONRAD has built long-standing relationships with hospitals and health systems delivering reliable, high-quality radiology coverage,” said Dave Engert, President and CEO of ONRAD. “Joining RadNet not only gives us the scale, resources and technology to meet the growing needs of our current and prospective customers, but it also enables us to offer a unique imaging model that addresses the full continuum of care from outpatient imaging centers to the acute care environment. The potential to further meet the ever-increasing demand for imaging services along with improving patient outcomes is what excites me most about our future together.”

No Offer or Solicitation
This press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute or form part of, an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
References
(1)The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, each from continuing operations and adjusted for losses or gains on the sale of equipment, other income or loss, debt extinguishments and non-cash equity compensation. Adjusted EBITDA includes equity earnings in unconsolidated operations and subtracts allocations of earnings to non-controlling interests in subsidiaries, and is adjusted for non-cash or extraordinary and one-time events taken place during the period.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used as analytical indicator by RadNet management and the healthcare industry to assess business performance, and is a measure of leverage capacity and ability to service debt. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and the items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as alternatives to net income, cash flows generated by operating, investing or financing activities or other financial statement data presented in the consolidated financial statements as an indicator of financial performance or liquidity. As Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and is therefore susceptible to varying methods of calculation, this metric, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.
The Company’s guidance or target for ONRAD’s addition to Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or otherwise has been adjusted for non-GAAP adjustment items from the Company’s GAAP financial statements. When the Company provides guidance or its target for ONRAD’s addition to Adjusted EBITDA, it does not provide a reconciliation of the GAAP measure as it is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact of the non-GAAP adjustment items. By their very nature, non-GAAP adjustment items are difficult to anticipate with precision because they are generally associated with unexpected and unplanned events that impact the Company and its financial results. Therefore, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of these measures without unreasonable efforts.
