First Choice Healthcare CFO Resigns, Search for Replacement Begins

First Choice Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (OTC Capital Markets:FCHS), a provider of medical laboratory services, announced today the resignation of Ernest Scheidemann, the Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective February 25, 2025. According to the company’s recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Scheidemann’s departure is not due to any internal disagreements or issues with the company’s operations or financial practices. Instead, he resigned to accept a full-time position at another company listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, which restricted his ability to continue in his role at First Choice Healthcare. The transition comes at a crucial time for FCHS, which according to InvestingPro data, faces significant financial challenges with a debt-to-capital ratio of 0.99 and negative EBITDA of $1.37 million in the last twelve months.

The resignation was formally communicated to First Choice Healthcare on the same day, and the company has since initiated the process of interviewing potential candidates to fill the CFO position. The search for a new CFO comes at a time when the company is navigating the competitive landscape of medical laboratory services, with InvestingPro analysis indicating rapid cash burn and short-term obligations exceeding liquid assets, as reflected in a current ratio of 0.02.

First Choice Healthcare Solutions, based in Melbourne, Florida, operates under the organization name "08 Industrial Applications and Services" and was previously known as Medical (TASE:BLWV) Billing Assistance, Inc. The company has a history of rebranding, having changed its name from Medical Billing Assistance Inc in 2011.

The company’s business address and contact information remain the same, with headquarters located at 709 S. Harbor City Blvd., Suite 250, Melbourne, FL 32901, and the business phone number listed as (321) 725-0090.

This latest development in the company’s executive team is based on the information provided in the SEC filing and reflects the company’s current efforts to ensure a smooth transition in its financial leadership. Despite challenges, FCHS has shown strong market performance with a 160% price return over the past year.
