MADISON, Wis. – Nordic, a health and technology consulting firm, has partnered with CLEAR (NYSE: YOU), a \$3.08 billion identity verification company that has delivered an impressive 41% return over the past six months. The collaboration aims to enhance healthcare information security and simplify access across healthcare systems.
InvestingPro analysis notes that CLEAR is currently trading close to its Fair Value, backed by strong financial metrics that support its growth outlook.
Through this partnership, CLEAR’s identity platform, CLEAR1, will be integrated with Nordic’s health IT services. CLEAR1 offers a reusable, NIST IAL2/AAL2-compliant identity credential, enabling patients and providers to access multiple healthcare services without repeated verification.
The companies highlight that many healthcare systems still depend on manual identity verification methods, which can increase administrative burdens and pose cybersecurity risks.
“Healthcare organizations are working to modernize their systems, aiming for greater speed, efficiency, and simplicity across their EHR platforms,” said Steve Eckert, Chief Growth Officer at Nordic, in the press release.
David Bardan, General Manager and Head of Healthcare at CLEAR, added, “With our single reusable identity, the entire healthcare ecosystem benefits—patients gain seamless access to their health data and services without repeated identity checks, while providers can verify individuals quickly and efficiently.”
Nordic supports over 700 healthcare organizations worldwide with a team of more than 3,300 professionals, offering strategic consulting, implementation assistance, and managed services for healthcare technology solutions.
The partnership seeks to help healthcare organizations strike the right balance between convenience and security in managing electronic health records.
In recent developments, Clear Secure Inc. announced its Q2 2025 earnings, reporting a 17.5% year-over-year revenue increase to \$219.5 million—exceeding both Telsey’s projection and the FactSet consensus. However, earnings per share came in at \$0.26, falling short of the expected \$0.30.
Following the results, analysts adjusted their price targets. Telsey Advisory Group raised its target to \$37 with an Outperform rating, citing strong performance. Wells Fargo revised its target to \$25, keeping an Underweight rating, noting the results aligned with prior trends. Stifel increased its target to \$33 with a Hold rating, recognizing the company’s sustained momentum heading into Q3.
