Better Choice aims to lead the shift toward healthier pet products, leveraging its Halo brand to offer sustainably sourced and minimally processed pet foods. With a healthy current ratio of 2.38 and more cash than debt on its balance sheet, the company maintains strong liquidity positions. SRx Health operates as a Canadian healthcare service provider, specializing in Specialty Pharmacy, and has plans to expand its specialty pharmacy locations within Canada and eventually internationally.

The news of the acquisition comes as both companies focus on growth and expansion. SRx’s approach to patient care and its strategy to increase collaboration with pharmaceutical manufacturers and prescribers complement Better Choice’s commitment to pet health and wellness.

This strategic move is expected to broaden Better Choice’s reach in the pet health sector while providing a more integrated solution to healthcare services. The acquisition is part of a forward-looking plan by both entities to improve service delivery and accessibility in their respective industries.
