Summary
Cain Brothers, a division of KeyBanc Capital Markets, served as exclusive financial advisor to ChristianaCare in its acquisition of Crozer Health’s outpatient centers in southeastern Pennsylvania.
On May 27th, 2025, ChristianaCare was the successful bidder in a highly competitive bankruptcy auction to acquire five ambulatory surgery and outpatient centers in Delaware County, Pennsylvania that were part of the Crozer Health regional health system. Crozer is subsidiary of Prospect Medical Holdings, who filed for bankruptcy protection earlier this year. The transaction complements ChristianaCare’s plans for expansion in the service area.
ChristianaCare is a non-profit regional healthcare system that provides healthcare services to all of Delaware and portions of the bordering counties in Pennsylvania, Maryland and New Jersey. The system includes an extensive network of primary care and outpatient services, hospitals and specialized centers of excellence. ChristianaCare reported consolidated revenues of $3.1 billion for the last twelve months ending June 30, 2024.
Crozer Health was one of the largest private hospital systems in Pennsylvania, operating multiple hospitals, primary care clinics and outpatient centers across the state. Crozer Health was a subsidiary of Prospect Medical Holdings, a California-based national network of hospitals and affiliated medical groups, who filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in January 2025.
Due to its deep experience with strategic and tactical M&A advisory, Cain Brothers was engaged to serve as financial advisor to assist with financial due diligence, valuation, and bankruptcy auction strategy and tactics. A Purchase Agreement was signed on May 27th, with closing subject to court approval and regulatory review in mid-2025.
