AdaptHealth, f/k/a DFB Healthcare Acquisitions Corp. ("DFB"), was originally formed in November 2017 as a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination involving one or more businesses. On July 8, 2019, AdaptHealth Holdings LLC ("AdaptHealth Holdings") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), as amended on October 15, 2019, with DFB, pursuant to which AdaptHealth Holdings combined with DFB (the "Business Combination"). The Business Combination closed on November 8, 2019. In connection with the Business Combination, the name of the combined company was changed to AdaptHealth Corp.
Under the Company's Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, there are 300,000,000 shares of authorized Common Stock and 5,000,000 shares of authorized Preferred Stock. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share. The shares of Preferred Stock shall be issued with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors.
Treasury Stock
In May 2022, the Company's board of directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $200.0 million of the Company's Common Stock, which expired on December 31, 2023 (the "Share Repurchase Program"). The timing and actual number of shares repurchased depended upon market conditions and other factors. Shares of the Company's Common Stock were repurchased from time to time on the open market, through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company purchased 3,184,200 and 750,835 shares of the Company's Common Stock, respectively, for $29.3 million and $14.0 million, respectively, under the Share Repurchase Program, which is reflected in Treasury Stock in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. During the year ended December 31, 2024, as discussed in Note 18, Commitments and Contingencies, the Company issued 1 million shares from its Treasury Stock in connection with a litigation settlement.
Warrants
In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued 12,666,666 warrants on November 8, 2019. The Company's remaining unexercised warrants expired on November 8, 2024. Prior to the expiration, each warrant was exercisable into one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share. There were no warrants exercised during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. During the year ended December 31, 2022, 184,870 warrants were exercised in cashless transactions resulting in the issuance of 87,553 shares of Common Stock.
The Company classified its warrants as a liability in its consolidated balance sheets because of certain terms included in the corresponding warrant agreement. The estimated fair value of the warrants was recorded as a liability, with such fair value reclassified to stockholders’ equity upon the exercise of such warrants. Prior to exercise, the change in the
estimated fair value of such warrants each period was recognized as a non-cash charge or gain in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
