Consumer Direct Holdings, Inc. Announces Filing of Registration Statement on Form S-4 in Connection with Its Proposed Business Combination with DTRT Health Acquisition Corp.


Consumer Direct Holdings, Inc. ("CDH" or the "Company"), a leading provider of self-directed in-home personal care, and DTRT Health Acquisition Corp. ("DTRT") (Nasdaq: DTRT, DTRTU, DTRTW) a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, announced today that a registration statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement") has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") by Grizzly New Pubco, Inc. ("New Pubco"), a wholly owned subsidiary of DTRT, which contains a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus, in connection with CDH's previously announced proposed business combination with DTRT. The Registration Statement provides important information about DTRT, CDH and the proposed business combination, but the Registration Statement has not yet become effective and the information contained therein is subject to change.

On September 28, 2022, CDH entered into a merger agreement with DTRT. The business combination is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023, subject to approval by DTRT's stockholders, the Registration Statement being declared effective by the SEC, and other customary closing conditions. Following the business combination with DTRT, New Pubco is expected to be renamed to Consumer Direct Care Network, Inc. and its common stock and public warrants will trade on Nasdaq under the symbol "CDCN" and "CDCNW," respectively. The transaction values CDH at a pro forma enterprise value of approximately $691 million.
