Sneha S K, Reuters, October 6 - Pharmaceutical distributor McKesson (MCK.N) and private equity firm Clayton Dubilier & Rice (CD&R) reached an agreement on Tuesday to take infusion therapy provider Option Care Health (OPCH.O) private in a deal valued at approximately $5.8 billion, including debt. The acquisition price of $32.05 per share represents a 37.1% premium over Option Care's most recent closing price. The stock rose 33% in pre-market trading to $31.11. This deal, part of McKesson’s latest efforts to expand in healthcare services, marks another acquisition of a home healthcare provider by a private equity fund following the Enhabit deal. Option Care Health is the largest independent provider of infusion therapy in the US, serving over 308,000 patients annually through more than 197 service locations, offering home and outpatient infusions, specialty pharmacy services, and care for complex conditions. Demand for home healthcare in the US has been growing amid an aging population and as more patients opt for care outside of high-cost settings such as hospitals. After the deal closes, CD&R will hold the majority stake, while McKesson will own a minority stake. Option Care Health will continue to operate as an independent company, led by its own management team. Under the transaction terms, McKesson will invest about $1.4 billion for a 49% stake and retain the right to purchase the remaining 51% from CD&R at a later date. Leerink Partners analyst Michael Cherny noted in a report Monday evening that the deal aligns McKesson with the trend of shifting healthcare services away from hospitals and institutions. In addition, given McKesson’s operation of Canada’s leading infusion and injection network Inviva, the transaction expands its footprint in US home infusion services. McKesson’s oncology and multi-specialty business unit, which includes infusion services, generated revenue of $14.2 billion in the latest quarter, up 33% year-over-year, driven by specialty drug distribution and contributions from acquisitions. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2027, after which Option Care Health will become a private company.
