Approximately 14.28 million shares are expected to price in the range of $23 to $26, with an overallotment option for about 2.14 million shares.

The underwriters for the offering are Merrill Lynch, Goldman Sachs, Jefferies, Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, Raymond James, RBC Capital Markets and Stifel.

This is a leading health care services company that claims a differentiated outpatient delivery model focused on providing high-quality, cost-effective solutions for surgical and related ancillary care in support of its patients and physicians.

On a pro forma basis in 2014, roughly 4,000 physicians provided services to over 500,000 patients in its surgical facilities.

Surgery Partner’s strategy provides a suite of targeted and complementary ancillary services in support of patients and physicians. This suite of ancillary services is composed of a diagnostic laboratory, multi-specialty physician practices, urgent care facilities, anesthesia services, optical services and specialty pharmacy services.
