Liberty Medical authorized to sell all assets for $32.5 million cash

By Kali Hays

New York, Nov. 17 – Liberty Medical Supply, Inc. obtained court approval to sell substantially all company assets to Liberty Medical, LLC for the cash price of $32.5 million and the assumption of up to $35.96 million in liabilities, according to a Nov. 14 order from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.

Stalking horse bidder Liberty Medical Operations, Inc. is the designated backup bid with a cash offer of $24.45 million and the assumption of $33.5 million in liabilities.

As Liberty Medical Operations is not the winning bidder, the company is entitled to a $1.4 million breakup fee and reimbursement of expenses up to $500,000 under the approved stalking horse agreement.

The sale is set to close no later than Nov. 28.

Liberty Medical, a Port St. Lucie, Fla.-based health care products home delivery provider, filed for bankruptcy on Feb. 15, 2013. The Chapter 11 case number is 13-10262.
