The opportunity
A rare opportunity to acquire a high-performing clinic pharmacy in the Lower Mainland; listings with this combination of clinic co-location, scale, and earnings do not come up often. The pharmacy is an established independent community pharmacy that has operated for about ten years in the same building as a medical clinic. The clinic has been in place since the pharmacy opened, and most prescription volume comes from patients filling on the same visit. It dispenses approximately 145,000 prescriptions a year and reported approximately $2.4M in revenue for fiscal 2025, with normalized EBITDA of approximately $700,000 after a full replacement pharmacist cost. It is independent, with no franchise, banner, or royalty obligations, and is open seven days a week with a full dispensary, compliance packaging, PharmaCare-billed clinical services, and a front store. An asset sale is preferred and a share sale may be considered, with vendor support available through the transition. The asking price is $4,000,000 plus inventory at cost. Figures are rounded and based on compiled (not audited or reviewed) financial statements; normalized EBITDA includes owner compensation adjustments detailed in the Confidential Information Memorandum. Full financials and the location are released to qualified buyers under NDA.

Financing at this size
Normalized EBITDA of approximately $700,000 is stated after paying a full market replacement pharmacist, so it does not assume the buyer works in the dispensary. An earnings base of that size is the kind Canadian lenders finance conventionally for a qualified buyer, typically 60 to 75 percent of the purchase price, with a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25 times. The figures are from compiled financial statements (not audited or reviewed); the normalization is set out in the Confidential Information Memorandum, released after NDA.

Who this suits
