National Home Health Care merger approved

June
18

National Home Health Care Corp., the Scarsdale-based home health-care provider that has been the subject of a bidding war, reported today that its shareholders have approved a merger agreement with Angelo Gordon & Co., an investment bank based in Manhattan.

NHHC’s shareholders will be entitled to $12.75 per share. The transaction is expected to be completed by Sept. 10.

Angelo Gordon has agreed to the settlement of a class-action lawsuit in exchange for the payment of an additional 10 cents a share to NHHC shareholders. The suit was filed earlier this year in response to NHHC’s original intention to accept an offer of $11.35 to $11.50 a share.

The other potential buyer was Premier Home Health Care Services Inc. of White Plains. Premier and Angelo Gordon have been submitting competing offers to buy the company since last fall.
