SEM Acquisition Announcement: Select Medical Shareholders are Notified of BFA Law’s Investigation into the Announced $16.50 per Share Transaction

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Leading securities law firm Bleichmar Fonti & Auld LLP announces an investigation into Select Medical Holdings Corporation’s (NYSE: SEM) board of directors and senior management for potential breaches of their fiduciary duties to shareholders in connection with the pending sale of the company for $16.50 per share as announced on March 2, 2026.

Why is Select Medical being Investigated? 

On March 2, 2026, Select Medical announced that it had agreed to be acquired by a consortium led by: Robert A. Ortenzio, Select Medical’s co-founder; Martin F. Jackson, Select Medical’s Senior Executive Vice President of Strategic Finance and Operations; and Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (“WCAS”), a private equity company which has longstanding historical ties to Russel L. Carson, a director on Select Medical’s board of directors.

The merger will eliminate all holdings of Select Medical stock in exchange for $16.50 per share in cash, except that Ortenzio, Jackson and certain entities affiliated with them are being allowed to “rollover” their holdings into the post-merger company. The opportunity to “rollover” is not being extended to public stockholders.

The merger was approved by a special committee of Select Medical’s board of directors and is conditioned on approval by Select Medical’s stockholders. 

The stockholder vote is scheduled for June 26, 2026. The merger could close shortly after that vote occurs, which could limit stockholders’ ability to investigate the fairness of the merger.

BFA is investigating whether Select Medical’s board of directors, together with members of the company’s senior management, have breached their fiduciary duties to Select Medical stockholders in connection with the negotiation and execution of the merger, including the public disclosures the company has made seeking stockholder approval.
