RadNet’s Joint Venture, New Jersey Imaging Network, Acquires the Imaging Operations of Montclair Radiology, Expanding its Presence in New Jersey

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 11, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RadNet, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDNT), a national leader in providing high-quality, cost-effective, fixed-site outpatient diagnostic imaging services, today reported its joint venture, New Jersey Imaging Network (NJIN), has acquired the outpatient radiology assets of Montclair Radiology, the owner of six imaging centers in northern New Jersey.

For more than 75 years, Montclair Radiology has been a leading provider of diagnostic imaging in northern New Jersey, servicing an area encompassing a patient population of 16 million. Montclair Radiology owns and operates six multimodality centers in Montclair, West Caldwell, Nutley, Verona, Jersey City and Hoboken, providing MRI, CT, PET/CT, x-ray, ultrasound, mammography and other related procedures. Montclair Radiology performs over 200,000 procedures per year and is projected to add over $40 million of revenue on an annual basis to NJIN.

Dr. Howard Berger, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of RadNet, noted, “We are pleased to announce this transaction. Since its formation in 2015, NJIN has grown into a leading provider of outpatient imaging in northern and central New Jersey, providing high-quality, lower cost and convenient services as an alternative to more expensive hospital-based imaging. Montclair Radiology’s long-standing brand has been a fixture in the markets it serves, and its high-quality reputation for delivering outstanding patient services is symbiotic with that of our existing NJIN operations.”

Dr. Michael Pollack, President of Montclair Radiology, shared, “The physicians and employees of Montclair Radiology are excited about this opportunity to affiliate with and become part of NJIN.  Our medical group has gained the trust of patients and referring physicians in northern New Jersey by providing exceptional radiology services.  NJIN and RadNet will provide the management and imaging expertise needed to grow our practice and to allow our physicians to focus on patient care.  We are confident that our employees will have a strong future with NJIN in this dynamically changing healthcare landscape.”

Montclair Radiology’s financial advisor was Ziegler and its legal advisor was Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis, LLP.
