The acquisition was completed for a cash purchase price of $570.0-million, subject to customary adjustments, plus approximately $13.6-million in estimated lease liabilities in accordance with international financial reporting standard 16 (Leases). The acquisition was financed using a combination of the net proceeds of approximately $191.5-million from the company's previously announced private placement of common shares that was completed on Dec. 3, 2025, aggregate draws of approximately $308.2-million under the company's existing senior secured credit facility ($154.5-million delayed draw term facility and $153.7-million revolving credit facility) and cash on hand.
"We are excited to welcome the CBI Home Health team to the Extendicare family," said Dr. Michael Guerriere, president and chief executive officer of Extendicare.
