HBI Deals+Insights / M&A/IPOs
Private equity firm KKR has reconfirmed its AU$88 per share offer for multinational hospital group Ramsay Health Care after completing due diligence on the company last week, HBI understands. It will now begin due diligence on Ramsay’s 52.79% stake in its subsidiary Ramsay Générale de Santé, which could take another few weeks. The deal still has to be approved by the French Competition Authority (FCA), which could take issue over the fact that KKR owns a 43% stake in Elsan, Ramsay Santé's largest competitor in France.
