Hammond Hanlon Camp LLC Advises PATH Foundation in Selling Minority Interest to LifePoint Health
posted on November 15, 2018
NEW YORK — Hammond Hanlon Camp LLC (“H2C”), a healthcare-focused investment banking firm, served as the exclusive financial advisor to the PATH Foundation (“the Foundation”) in selling its minority interest in Fauquier Health, a 97-bed health system in Warrenton, Va., to LifePoint Health (“LifePoint”).
In 2013, when Fauquier Health ("Fauquier") and LifePoint Health ("LifePoint") formed a joint venture to share ownership and operation of Fauquier, the Foundation retained 20 percent interest in Fauquier. In Spring 2018, the PATH Foundation sought to sell its interest in Fauquier to LifePoint .
LifePoint and the Foundation engaged a valuation consultant to determine the value of the Foundation’s interest in Fauquier. The Foundation then engaged H2C to work with the valuation consultant.
“H2C worked on a number of areas with the valuation consultant to support the valuation, leading to a strong valuation of the joint venture and, accordingly, of the Foundation’s interest,” said Elaine Yao, Managing Director for H2C. Email Elaine.
“Ultimately, H2C’s due diligence and judgment helped optimize the value of our interest in Fauquier,” said Christy Connolly, CEO, PATH Foundation. “We were familiar with H2C through H2C’s work with another hospital during the sale of Fauquier in 2013 and were very impressed. We are pleased to have worked with H2C on this initiative which provided great value for the Foundation and the communities we serve.”
