Sebring Completes Two Significant Mergers of Dental Practice Management Companies and $16 million Financing

SARASOTA, Fla., May 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sebring Software, Inc. ("Sebring") (OTC: SMXI), a Dental Practice Management company (DPM), today announced the closing of two concurrent mergers; one, Orthodontic Specialists Management, LLC "OSM," which manages orthodontic dental practices across Florida and two, Absolute Aesthetic & Restorative and Image Dentistry of Glendale "AAR" which operates dental practices based in Arizona. Sebring also closed on a $16.0 million financing from a lender group led by MidMarket Capital Partners, LLC.

AAR and OSM produced combined 2012 un-audited annual revenues of approximately $18.0 million.  The transactions are a part of the company's strategy to enter the healthcare market through mergers of DPM companies and certain dental practices. Both AAR and OSM will bring strategic DPM assets to Sebring, and provide a platform for the company to launch its unique software applications to the healthcare industry.

"Owning assets in the DPM space allows Sebring to enter the dental sector in two large, growing and profitable markets," commented Leif Andersen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sebring Software. "As we move forward with our growth strategy, we plan to integrate our software applications in all practices to provide cost efficiencies to the back office and further increase profitability. We will continue to search for strategic mergers in the healthcare sector, and I look forward to updating our shareholders as we advance through our expansion."

To close the transactions, Sebring raised $16.0 million from a group of lenders led by MidMarket Capital Partners.  Under the terms of the loan agreement, the lenders agreed to loan the company $16.0 million in two separate tranches; $11.0 million and $5.0 million.  Sebring issued an 8K on the transaction on May 1, 2013, which can be found at www.sec.gov.
