Analysis
After acquiring Peak Medical in Dec. 05 and pruning underperforming businesses and facilities, the Harborside deal helps Sun transform itself after surviving a bankruptcy filing. Harborside's facilities are contiguous in location with Sun's. Deal value -- $350m plus $275m in assumed debt. $12-15m of synergistic expense savings anticipated. Harborside's sales were $544m (1.1x), excluding $91m from acquired companies (full year effect).
