Hooper Holmes Announces Plans to Move the Listing of its Shares to the OTCQX Marketplace

- Company Will Remain Subject to SEC Reporting Requirements

- Merger with Provant On Schedule to Close in Early May 2017

OLATHE, Kan., April 20, 2017 -- Hooper Holmes, Inc. (NYSE.MKT:HH) announced today that it notified the NYSE MKT LLC exchange ("NYSE MKT") of its intention to move its listing from the NYSE MKT to the OTCQX Marketplace.  Hooper Holmes will file a Form 25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC") on or about May 1, 2017 to voluntarily delist its common stock from the NYSE MKT.  The company expects that its common stock will begin trading on the OTCQX Marketplace ("OTCQX") on or about May 2, 2017.

Hooper Holmes will remain subject to the public reporting requirements of the SEC following the transfer to the OTCQX. 

Hooper Holmes has determined that it is in the best interests of the company and its shareholders to move to the OTCQX at this time instead of continuing to pursue efforts to satisfy the NYSE MKT listing requirements under the previously disclosed plan, which has a deadline of May 8, 2017 by which time the company must have at least $ 6 million of shareholders equity.

On March 8, 2017, the company announced an agreement to combine with Provant Health Solutions LLC in an all-stock transaction which will create one of the largest, pure-play health and wellness companies in the United States. On a pro-forma basis as if combined, 2016 revenues for the two companies were in excess of $67 million, net of $ 3.8 million of Provant gift-card pass-through revenue.

The transaction, the related stock issuances, and the previously announced term and asset backed credit facilities in support of the merger transaction and the combined companies’ working capital needs are on track to close in early May 2017. The parties related to the transaction believe that this move to the OTC does not impact the company’s long-term growth and profitability opportunities.
