Sumitomo Corporation is an integrated business enterprise with a global network of 128 offices in 66 countries and regions. The Sumitomo Corporation Group consists of approximately 900 companies and 80,000 employees on a consolidated basis. The Group’s business activities span nine sectors: Steel, Automotive, Transportation & Construction Systems, Diverse Urban Development, Media & Digital, Lifestyle (includes Healthcare), Mineral Resources, Chemicals Solutions, and Energy Transformation Business. Sumitomo Corporation is dedicated to creating value for society under the corporate message of “Enriching lives and the world,” based on Sumitomo’s business philosophy passed down for over 400 years.

Sumitomo is endeavoring to improve health outcomes and provide greater access to healthcare resources. ActivStyle’s mission and culture closely aligns with Sumitomo’s business philosophy, and we will seek to collaborate to expand the platform.

You won’t notice any cultural changes at ActivStyle. ActivStyle will operate as a stand-alone company. Sumitomo is known for investing in companies for the long-term and supporting their growth while valuing employees. We will be able to operate with additional flexibility and employee focus by narrowing our scope to ActivStyle’s business rather than needing to fit into a much larger corporation. While Sumitomo is thrilled to support us as a new subsidiary, our leadership team will remain in full control of how we operate day-to-day. This acquisition gives us the resources and stability to continue growing while staying true to what makes our company unique. We are not only reclaiming our identity but will be positioned for even greater success with the backing of a global partner.

The acquisition of ActivStyle will allow us to transition away from the AdaptHealth culture and reestablish an ActivStyle-centric corporate culture. We are excited for the opportunity to center our mission around empathy and quality patient care.

Together, we will establish:

• Our Mission – Align the company’s goals with the empathy and care employees show for patients, emphasizing that every role supports the mission of improving patient lives.
• Our Values – Establish values like respect, compassion, integrity, and teamwork, and ensure they are lived daily, not just displayed on a wall.
• Employee Empowerment – Empower employees to make decisions that benefit patients while trusting their judgement and expertise.
• Open Communication – Two-Way Dialogue and Transparency related to employee concerns, ideas, feedback, organizational changes, goals, and challenges.
• Recognition and Appreciation – Regularly acknowledge and celebrate employees’ individual contributions and team successes.
• Empathetic Leadership – Leaders should model empathy and respect in their interactions with staff and lead by example. Ensure that managers are accessible and genuinely care about their teams’ well-being.
• Supportive Environment – Offer flexible work options and mental health resources to prevent burnout and support employees holistically.
• Inclusive Culture – Foster a culture where diversity is celebrated, and all employees feel respected and valued.

For the past 5 years, ActivStyle has been integrated into AdaptHealth’s operational systems. As a stand-alone company, ActivStyle will now have the opportunity to reestablish its own operational systems that better “fit” our business, as well as enhance existing systems like CarePro to provide even better service to our patients.

During the acquisition transition window, between signature and close, our leaders will be focused on our operational infrastructure to assure a smooth transition away from shared systems with AdaptHealth to our own systems such as, financial tracking systems, payroll and benefits software, IT infrastructure, licensing, and credentialing.

No, your role, responsibilities, and daily operations will remain the same.

No, we plan to add staff to handle responsibilities that are currently being supported by AdaptHealth, as we will be a fully stand-alone company.

Future staffing needs:

• Finance
• Cash posting
• Human resources
• Compliance
• IT
• Contracting
• Legal

Insperity is our partner for job postings. These postings will be found through Insperity and will also be posted on the ActivStyle website’s Careers page.

Employee shifts and work place location, such as Hybrid schedules, will be evaluated post transition. To migrate to remote or hybrid based work force there are several components to be considered, to ensure continuity of the business and be able to effectively manage the operations in this manner.

Until we transition to a new payroll system on April 1st, you will continue to be employed and paid by AdaptHealth. In the next month, we will transition to Insperity payroll and HRIS system. We will continue to communicate developments regarding this as we progress to ensure a smooth handover.

With the move to Insperity managing payroll, ActivStyle will continue to remain on the same bi-weekly payroll cycle as we had with AdaptHeath. Below includes the details for the pay periods during transition:

We will offer a competitive benefits package, similar to your current benefits. The benefit carrier will change to United Healthcare. To ensure everyone is enrolled in the new plan, open enrollment will take place from March 3rd through March 14th. You will receive an email on February 28th outlining the necessary steps to prepare for open enrollment.

There will be no changes to hourly pay, salary, or bonuses. We will work with our HR partners to do a full evaluation of market wages in 2025. In addition, the performance review period will continue on the same schedule as AdaptHealth through our new system, with merit recommendations for those eligible in September.

We are working closely with AdaptHealth and Insperity to ensure all state laws are followed during this transition. Further information will be provided to you. Each employee will keep their seniority through this transaction. All accrued, unused PTO will be paid in your final AdaptHealth paycheck on April 18, 2025.

No. There will not be two separate checks. Your last check with AdaptHealth will only be for one day of work plus your PTO accrual payout.

No. There is not a cap. AdaptHealth will payout each employee for their unused accrued PTO.

Our 401k will be adminstrated via TransAmerica. If you have a current plan with Fidelity, under AdaptHealth, you will be able to rollover your funds to the new plan. Instructions provided during the upcoming 401k educations sessions will provide further information on how to do a rollover.

We will provide information and training to make the transition to Insperity as smooth as possible. The system is similar to our current Paylocity platform. Additionally, an HR representative will be on-site to answer your questions and provide assistance in the coming weeks.

Instructions will be provided to all employees on the process for returning your AdaptHealth Laptop or desktop during our IT tech week.

We will share updates weekly through supervisors & email communications. It is very important that you closely monitor your email communications during this period of transition.

Our HR and Complaince based programs are in development. Our goal is to have employee engagement type committees for employees to participate in.

Leadership presence in all locations is top of mind. Senior leadership will be present almost weekly in our main headquarters in St Paul. In addition, our satalitie offices will be put into a standard rotation on a monthly/quarterly basis to have a leader spend time in these locations.

These calls should be directed to Darrell Rawlings, incoming CEO of ActivStyle. Please use this form to submit these inquiries to Darrell, and he will respond to them accordingly.

Your supervisor is your first point of contact. You can also speak with the contracted on-site HR representative or ask questions via the feedback form at the bottom of this page.
