Aleutian Capital Group Advises American Data in Strategic Acquisition by Valsoft Corporation
Aleutian Capital Group (“Aleutian”) has announced the successful acquisition of 1984 System, Inc., doing business as American Data, by Valsoft Corporation, a prominent Montreal-based company known for acquiring and developing vertical market software businesses. In this transaction, Aleutian acted as the exclusive financial advisor to American Data, offering end-to-end support and strategic counsel throughout the deal process. While specific financial terms of the acquisition remain confidential, the transaction marks a significant milestone in the continued expansion of Valsoft’s healthcare technology portfolio and the ongoing evolution of American Data as a key player in the electronic health record (EHR) software space.
Founded in 1984, American Data has become a well-regarded name in the long-term care industry for its comprehensive EHR platform, designed specifically to serve the complex needs of skilled nursing facilities, assisted living communities, and other long-term care providers across the United States. The company’s flagship solution is distinguished by its adaptability, allowing facilities to tailor workflows to their unique operations while maintaining full regulatory compliance and ensuring continuity of care across medical and administrative functions.
American Data’s longevity and success in the EHR software sector stem from its core values of reliability, innovation, and customer-centric design. By combining intuitive interfaces with powerful back-end functionality, American Data empowers healthcare professionals to streamline charting, medication administration, care planning, and documentation. Its robust analytics capabilities further support administrators in managing performance, ensuring compliance, and enhancing outcomes. Today, hundreds of care providers rely on American Data’s all-in-one platform to improve efficiency, enhance patient outcomes, and support clinical staff in delivering quality care.
As healthcare technology continues to evolve and adapt to regulatory shifts, aging demographics, and increasing demand for data-driven care, American Data has stood out for its ability to evolve in tandem with the industry it serves. This adaptability, along with its strong client relationships and deep expertise in the long-term care sector, made the company an attractive acquisition target for Valsoft Corporation—a firm with a strong track record of acquiring and growing software companies in niche and mission-critical verticals.
Valsoft Corporation’s acquisition of American Data reflects a broader strategy to expand its footprint in the healthcare technology space, particularly in verticals that benefit from highly specialized and customizable software platforms. Valsoft’s unique business model is rooted in a long-term, buy-and-hold philosophy that seeks to preserve and enhance the legacy and culture of the companies it acquires. In doing so, it provides acquired businesses like American Data with the financial backing, operational resources, and global network needed to scale sustainably and accelerate innovation.
“Aleutian Capital Group played a critical role in bringing this transaction to a successful close,” said John Ederer, Founder and President of American Data. “From our first conversation to the final handshake, their team demonstrated not only a keen understanding of our industry and business model but also a level of dedication and strategic insight that went far beyond the typical advisory engagement. They weren’t just consultants—they were trusted partners who genuinely cared about our team, our customers, and our long-term vision. Their support was instrumental in helping us find a partner in Valsoft that aligns with our values and shares our commitment to improving long-term care through technology.”
Leading the engagement on behalf of Aleutian Capital Group was Ji Sang Lee, Managing Director, who emphasized the strong strategic fit between American Data and Valsoft. “We are thrilled to have advised American Data on this important transaction,” Lee commented. “John and his team have built an exceptional company with a loyal customer base and a best-in-class software platform. The partnership with Valsoft positions American Data for its next chapter of growth while preserving the core strengths that have made it a leader in long-term care EHR. This deal is a testament to the power of strategic alignment, shared vision, and thoughtful execution.”
This acquisition also underscores Aleutian Capital Group’s growing reputation as a premier advisor to founder-led, middle-market technology companies. With a focus on delivering tailored advisory services to software, healthcare, and business services firms, Aleutian has built a track record of facilitating successful transactions that align shareholder objectives with long-term growth strategies.

The American Data-Valsoft deal is the latest in a series of successful outcomes led by Aleutian for companies operating at the intersection of healthcare and technology. It reflects a broader trend of consolidation and investment in healthcare IT, as private equity firms, strategic buyers, and global operators increasingly look to acquire companies that provide mission-critical software with stable recurring revenue and growth potential.
As the healthcare industry continues to undergo digital transformation, the demand for integrated, customizable, and scalable EHR platforms remains strong—particularly in long-term and post-acute care settings, where technology adoption has historically lagged behind acute care but is now accelerating. American Data, with its rich legacy, strong customer base, and commitment to innovation, is well-positioned to thrive in this new chapter under Valsoft’s ownership.
In summary, the acquisition represents not only a significant milestone for American Data and its founder but also an important example of how the right partnership can create long-term value in a complex and rapidly evolving industry. With Aleutian Capital Group’s guidance and Valsoft’s support, American Data is poised to continue its mission of empowering long-term care providers with the tools they need to deliver better outcomes and operate more efficiently.
