Positive

• $375,000,000 cash consideration (subject to adjustments) provides immediate liquidity
• Rollover units preserve potential upside through structured distribution mechanics
• Transaction documents and a press release were furnished and referenced for SEC reporting

Negative

• Rollover interests are non‑voting and passive, so upside is limited to distributions rather than control
• Cash price is subject to adjustments for cash, indebtedness, net working capital and transaction expenses
• Recoveries from rollover depend on Purchaser Parent distributions, which are uncertain and contingent

Insights

Corporate Finance Advisor

TL;DR: Sale for $375M with partial equity rollover creates immediate cash and limited upside via non‑voting distributions.

The transaction converts the companys ownership of the Products & Healthcare Services unit into $375,000,000 of cash (subject to standard closing adjustments) plus non‑voting rollover units that yield tiered distribution rights. The cash proceeds should improve near‑term liquidity and allow redeployment or debt reduction depending on company choices disclosed elsewhere.

The rollover structure gives a contingent recovery path: Owens & Minor receives 50% of distributions after Purchaser Parent hits $310 million of aggregate distributions until Owens & Minor has received $200 million, then 5% of excess distributions. Key dependencies include actual post‑closing performance of Purchaser Parent and the timing/amount of distributions.

Transaction Counsel

TL;DR: The agreement documents a cash sale plus a non‑voting rollover; material terms include customary adjustments and prioritized distribution mechanics.

The Equity Purchase Agreement contemplates customary post‑closing price adjustments for cash, indebtedness, net working capital and transaction expenses and transfers certain rollover securities for non‑voting Rollover Units in Purchaser Parent. The rollover units are passive financial interests with stated distribution priorities rather than controlling rights.

Legal and execution risks center on satisfying closing conditions and the enforceability/timing of distribution waterfalls within Purchaser Parent; monitor transaction closing filings and the referenced SEC reports for completed agreement exhibits and any further legal disclosures on October 7, 2025.

Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Equity Purchase Agreement

On October 7, 2025, Owens & Minor, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement, (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, Dominion Healthcare Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”), and Dominion Healthcare Holdings, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Purchaser Parent”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the Company will (i) sell and transfer to Purchaser all of the Company’s right, title and interest in and to all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests (other than the Rollover Company Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement)) in O&M PHS LLC, a Virginia limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (which, after giving effect to the completion of certain reorganization transactions, comprises the “Products & Healthcare Services” business of the Company), for an aggregate of $375,000,000 in cash, subject to certain adjustments for cash, indebtedness, net working capital and transaction expenses (the “Sale”) and (ii) contribute, assign, transfer and deliver to Purchaser Parent, the Rollover Company Securities in exchange for the Rollover Units (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in Purchaser Parent (the “Rollover”, and together with the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, collectively, the “Transactions”). Pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of Purchaser Parent, the Rollover Company Securities are non-voting, passive interests which entitle the Company to receive (1) 50% of any distributions made by Purchaser Parent after Purchaser Parent has made aggregate distributions of $310 million, until such time as the Company receives $200 million of distributions, and (2) 5% of any distributions made by Purchaser Parent in excess of the priority returns described above.

The closing of the Transactions is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary closing conditions, including, among others, (i) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), and the receipt of clearances or approvals under other specified antitrust, competition and trade regulation laws, (ii) the absence of any order, or law that enjoins, makes illegal or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the Transactions, (iii) the completion of certain reorganization transactions, (iv) the accuracy of representations and warranties made by the Company and the Purchaser, subject to certain specified materiality standards and certain exceptions, (v) performance and compliance by the parties of their respective covenants and obligations under the Purchase Agreement in all material respects and (vi) the absence of any Business Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) since the date of the Purchase Agreement.

The Company made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Purchase Agreement, including, among others, and subject to certain exceptions, covenants to conduct the Products & Healthcare Services business in the ordinary course during the period between the date of the Purchase Agreement and the earlier of the closing date of the Transactions and the termination of the Purchase Agreement, as well as covenants not to engage in specified types of actions during this period. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to reimburse Purchaser and its affiliates for 80% of certain costs incurred by Purchaser or its affiliates in connection with the separation of the Products & Healthcare Services business from the Company’s retained business, subject to an aggregate cap of $65 million. The Company will not be obligated to reimburse Purchaser or its affiliates: (1) for any such costs in advance of April 1, 2026, (2) for more than $15 million of such costs prior to October 1, 2026, or (3) for more than $55 million of such costs prior to January 1, 2027. The Purchase Agreement also contains certain non-competition, non-solicit and non-disparagement provisions. Subject to certain limitations, the Company and Purchaser have agreed to indemnify each other for losses arising from (i) breaches of post-closing covenants, (ii) breaches of certain reorganization and separation covenants, (iii) liabilities in respect of the Products & Healthcare Services business or the Company’s retained business, as applicable, (iv) certain tax matters and (v) certain other specified matters.

At the closing of the Transactions, the Company and the Purchaser will provide certain transition services to the other party pursuant to a certain customary transition services agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the transition services agreement, the Company has agreed that, in certain circumstances, it may be obligated to provide up to $115 million in credit support to the Products & Healthcare Services business.

The Purchase Agreement contains certain termination rights, including that either the Company or the Purchaser may terminate the Purchase Agreement if, subject to certain limitations, the Sale has not closed by the date that is six (6) months after the date of the Purchase Agreement, subject to a potential extension under certain circumstances (the “Termination Date”).

The Purchase Agreement provides that the Purchaser will be required to pay the Company a termination fee of $9,375,000 under certain specified circumstances if the closing conditions relating to receipt of regulatory approvals have not been satisfied by the Termination Date or if any governmental authority issues a final and nonappealable injunction or order permanently enjoining, preventing or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions and relating to any regulatory law, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement. If the Purchase Agreement is terminated by the Company (A) at a time when (i) all of the conditions to Closing have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be, and can be, satisfied at the Closing), (ii) the Company irrevocably and unconditionally notifies Purchaser in writing that it is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing and (iii) the Purchaser fails to consummate the Closing on the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) or (B) if the Purchaser has breached or failed to perform in any material respect and such breach or failure to perform gives rise to certain closing conditions and such breach or failure is incapable of being cured or has not been cured by a certain date, then the Purchaser will be required to pay the Company a termination fee equal to $18,750,000.

Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures. The Purchase Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the parties that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 and other documents that the Company has filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
