The deal value is $6.3B including assumption of debt. The buyout is a 17% premium to KCI’s share price prior to the announcement in early July that KCI was in buyout discussions.

Apax Partners, the lead buyer in the KCI transaction, played a role in the development of Ascent Healthcare, which was acquired by SYK in 2009 (#msg- 44045285).
