Nortek subsidiary purchases Numera

PROVIDENCE – A subsidiary of Nortek Inc., Nortek Security & Control LLC, has acquired the mobile personal emergency response system and telehealth business assets from privately held Numera Inc. for $12 million.

According to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filing, Seattle-based Numera recorded unaudited net sales of under $3 million for those assets last year, which was the first full year of sales.

A news release from Nortek said that Numera’s products and cloud-based software platforms enable providers and health care-related companies to create new safety and health-monitoring services for customers.

For example, a product called Numera Libris integrates safety and health-monitoring capabilities in a small, wearable mobile device. The product features instant, hands-free communication, automated fall detection, location services and two-way voice communication. It can be operated virtually anywhere, the company said. •
