ABP Acquisition to Acquire AlerisLife for $1.31 Per Share

NEWTON, Mass. , February 03 /Businesswire/ - AlerisLife Inc. (Nasdaq: ALR) today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with ABP Acquisition LLC, or ABP, under which ABP will acquire all of the outstanding shares of ALR common stock for $1.31 per share in cash, which represents an 85% premium to the average trading price of the last 30 trading days of $0.71 per share. The total consideration to be paid to stockholders in the transaction is approximately $43.8 million and is not subject to any financing condition. ABP is majority owned and controlled by Adam Portnoy, one of ALR’s managing directors and the chair of its Board of Directors.

ABP plans to acquire ALR through a tender offer which will be subject to, among other things, a number of shares being tendered in the tender offer that, together with the shares owned by ABP and its affiliates, represent a majority of ALR shares. ABP together with its affiliates currently own approximately 6.1% of ALR’s outstanding shares of common stock. Diversified Healthcare Trust (Nasdaq: DHC), which holds approximately 31.9% of the outstanding shares of ALR common stock, has also consented to the transaction and has agreed to tender its shares in the tender offer. Promptly following completion of the tender offer, ABP will acquire all remaining shares of ALR at the same price of $1.31 per share in cash through a merger. The tender offer is expected to launch promptly, and the Board will recommend that shareholders tender their shares. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023.

The transaction was unanimously recommended by a special committee of the ALR Board of Directors comprised entirely of independent directors and approved by the ALR Board of Directors. The special committee engaged Citigroup Global Markets Inc. as its financial advisor in connection with the transaction.
