RENAL CARE GROUP SHAREHOLDERS OK MERGER
August 26, 2005
Renal Care Group Inc. shareholders voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to approve a $3.5 billion merger with Fresenius Medical Care AG that would make it one of the world's biggest dialysis care companies. The acquisition, which is expected to close by the end of 2005, is currently under review by the Federal Trade Commission, which will determine if the deal raises "anti-competitive concerns," according to a statement released by Renal Care Group.
