2025 Acquisition
Upfront Healthcare Services, Inc.
On January 22, 2025, we acquired Upfront Healthcare Services, Inc. (Upfront), a next-generation patient engagement platform provider. We accounted for the acquisition of Upfront as a business combination. The acquisition consideration transferred was $80.0 million and was comprised of estimated net cash consideration of $41.1 million, shares of our common stock with an aggregate acquisition-date fair value of $31.6 million, and contingent consideration based on certain earn-out performance targets for Upfront during an earn-out period ending on December 31, 2026, with an aggregate acquisition-date fair value of $7.3 million. The purchase resulted in Health Catalyst acquiring 100% ownership in Upfront.
An additional 106,196 shares of our common stock subject to restriction agreements (restricted shares) were issued pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreement. The value of these restricted shares is recognized as post-acquisition stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting term. Refer to Note 13-Stock-Based Compensation for additional details related to our stock-based compensation.
The following table summarizes the acquisition-date fair value of consideration transferred and the identifiable assets purchased and liabilities assumed as part of our acquisition of Upfront (in thousands):

Goodwill52,912 
Total consideration transferred, net of cash acquired$80,019 
The acquired intangible assets were valued utilizing either an income approach or a cost approach as deemed most applicable, and include client relationships, developed technology, and trademarks that will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of six years, three years, and three years, respectively. The resulting goodwill from the Upfront acquisition was fully allocated to the technology reporting unit and is not deductible for income tax purposes.
In addition to the purchase price, we agreed to make retention bonuses in an aggregate amount of up to $1.1 million in cash payments and the issuance of up to approximately 151,148 restricted shares to certain Upfront management team members, a portion of which is variable based upon the achievement of earn-out performance targets. The retention bonuses are recorded as post-combination compensation expense and adjusted out of our purchase price consideration. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we recognized compensation expense of $0.9 million and stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million related to these retention bonuses and 86,975 of the restricted shares that vested. There was no additional compensation expense, including stock-based compensation expense, recognized related to these retention bonuses during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
