ORNDA COMPLETES THE PUBLIC OFFERING OF ITS COMMON STOCK
NASHVILLE, Tennessee (November 6, 1995) - OrNda HealthCorp (Nasdaq
NM: ORND) announced completion of a public offering of 10 million shares of
its Common Stock at a $17.625 per share public offering price. All of the
shares were sold by OrNda.
Merrill Lynch & Co. and its international affiliate were the lead
managers of both the offering in the United States and Canada of 8 million
shares and the concurrent international offering of 2 million shares, with
Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities Corporation, Smith Barney Inc. and
Johnson Rice & Company L.L.C. acting as co-managers for both offerings.
OrNda has granted the underwriters an option for 30 days to purchase up to an
additional 1.5 million shares solely to cover over-allotments.
OrNda received approximately $168 million in aggregate net
proceeds from these offerings. OrNda intends to use the net proceeds from
these offerings (as well as the proceeds from any exercise of the
over-allotment option) to reduce existing bank indebtedness and for
general corporate purposes, including strategic acquisitions.
OrNda HealthCorp is the third largest investor-owned hospital
management company in the United States. It is a leading provider of health
care services, delivering a broad range of inpatient and outpatient health
care services principally through the operation of 47 hospitals located in
urban and suburban communities in 14 states.
