The Transaction Statement relates to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 23, 2025 (as it may be amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Parent, FONAR Acquisition Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub was merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. As a result of the Merger, Merger Sub ceased to exist as an independent entity and, therefore, is no longer a Filing Person.
This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) under the Exchange Act to report the results of the transaction that is the subject of the Transaction Statement.
Except as otherwise set forth herein, the information set forth in the Transaction Statement remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference into this Final Amendment. All information set forth in this Final Amendment should be read together with the information contained or incorporated by reference in the Transaction Statement.
While each of the Filing Persons acknowledges that the Merger is a “going private” transaction for purposes of Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act, the filing of this Final Amendment and the Transaction Statement shall not be construed as an admission by any Filing Person, or by any affiliate of a Filing Person, that prior to the Merger, the Company is “controlled” by any of the Filing Persons and/or their respective affiliates.
The information concerning the Company contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Final Amendment and the definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act pursuant to which the Company solicited proxies from the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Merger (as amended, the “Proxy Statement”) was supplied by the Company. Similarly, all information concerning each other Filing Person contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Transaction Statement and the Proxy Statement was supplied by such Filing Person. No Filing Person, including the Company, is responsible for the accuracy of any information supplied by any other Filing Person.
| Item 10. | Source and Amounts of Funds or Other Consideration. |
| (a)-(b),(d) | Source of funds; Conditions; Borrowed funds. Concurrently with the filing of this Final Amendment, the Company is filing with the SEC a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”). Item 1.01 of the Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference. |
| Item 15. | Additional Information. |
| (c) | Other material information. On May 28, 2026, at a special meeting of stockholders of the Company, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve a proposal to adopt and approve the Merger Agreement. |
On June 3, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Merger became effective. As a result of the Merger, the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.
At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company’s Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock and Class A Non-voting Preferred Stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (A) shares owned by Parent, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries, including securities held as treasury shares (collectively, “Excluded Shares”) and (B) shares held by stockholders who have properly and validly exercised their statutory rights of appraisal in respect of such shares in accordance with Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”)) automatically ceased to be outstanding and was converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to (i) $19.00 per share of each of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, (ii) $6.34 per share of Class C Common Stock and (iii) $10.50 per share of Class A Non-voting Preferred Stock, in each instance, without interest and subject to deduction for any required withholding tax, as set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”).
As of the Effective Time, the Excluded Shares were cancelled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or consideration paid therefor.
On June 3, 2026, the Company notified the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Merger had been completed. As a result, Nasdaq suspended trading of the Company’s Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market prior to the opening of trading on June 3, 2026. The Company requested that Nasdaq file with the SEC a notification of removal from listing and registration on Form 25 with respect to the delisting of all shares of the Company’s Common Stock from Nasdaq and the deregistration of such shares under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. Following the effectiveness of the Form 25, the Company intends to file with the SEC a certification on Form 15 requesting the termination of registration of the Company’s Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and the suspension of reporting obligations under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act.
