Enhabit Sets Stockholder Meeting Date to Approve Transaction With Kinderhook

DALLAS—Enhabit, Inc., a home health and hospice care provider, announced that it will hold the special meeting of stockholders on May 12, 2026, at 8 a.m. CT, to vote on a previously announced agreement and plan of merger. Pursuant to the merger agreement, Anchor Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Anchor Parent, LLC, will be merged with and into the company, with the company surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Anchor Parent. Anchor Parent and Merger Sub are affiliates of funds advised by Kinderhook Industries, LLC or an affiliate thereof.

Enhabit also announced that on April 15, 2026, the company received notification from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission that early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino (HSR) Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 was granted, effective immediately. Early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act satisfies one of the closing conditions under the merger agreement for completion of the transaction. The merger is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of remaining closing conditions, including receipt of Enhabit stockholder approval.

As previously disclosed, given the pending merger, Enhabit said it will not host an earnings conference call and is suspending its practice of providing financial guidance. Enhabit added it also does not intend to issue an earnings release for the second quarter of 2026.
