Surgery Partners, Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), was formed April 2, 2015, as a holding company for the purpose of facilitating an initial public offering (the “IPO”) of shares of common stock. Prior to September 30, 2015, the Company conducted business through Surgery Center Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. Surgery Center Holdings, LLC was and is the sole direct owner of the equity interests of Surgery Center Holdings, Inc. and had no other material assets.
On September 30, 2015, Surgery Partners, Inc. became the direct parent and sole member of Surgery Center Holdings, LLC (the "Reorganization"). In the Reorganization, all of the equity interests held by the pre-IPO Owners of Surgery Center Holdings, LLC were contributed to Surgery Partners, Inc. in exchange for 33,871,990 shares of common stock of Surgery Partners, Inc. and certain rights to additional payments under a tax receivable agreement. After giving effect to the Reorganization, Surgery Partners, Inc. is a holding company, and its sole material asset is an equity interest in Surgery Center Holdings, LLC. The Company's consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the Reorganization represent the historical operating results and financial position of Surgery Center Holdings, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries.
On October 1, 2015, the Company completed its IPO of 14,285,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $19.00 per share. On October 6, 2015, the Company received net proceeds from the sale of common stock in this offering of $255.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and other fees of $15.6 million. These net proceeds were used to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under the 2014 Second Lien and to pay fees associated with this offering. The Company also incurred an additional $4.8 million in costs directly related to the IPO.
On November 3, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of Symbion Holdings Corp. ("Symbion") ("the Merger"), which added 55 surgical facilities, including 49 ambulatory surgery centers ("ASCs") and six surgical hospitals, to its network of existing facilities. The Company acquired Symbion for a purchase price of $792.0 million pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of June 13, 2014. The Symbion acquisition was financed through the issuance of approximately $1.4 billion under the Company's Term Loans and Revolving Facility.
