Luther advises on sale of Elisabeth Hospital Kassel

With the help of Luther, the Elisabeth Vinzenz Verbund (EVV) is selling all shares in the Elisabeth Hospital Kassel GmbH and in the associated medical care centre. The new owner is St. Vinzenz GmbH, Fulda (Vinzenz Gruppe Fulda). The transition took place on 1 January 2025.

A team of experts led by Dr Oliver Kairies (pictured), Dr Daniel Schubmann and Dr Karina Wojtowicz (and with Dr. Hendrik Bernd Sehy, Frances Wolf, Dr. Eva Maria K. Rütz, and Dr. Lisa Kraayvanger), provided EVV with comprehensive legal advice on the sale process. They contributed a wealth of expertise and experience from legal and tax advisory projects in the entire health care & life science industry in Germany and Europe.

The informal bidding process began in spring 2024 and was notarised at the end of the contract negotiations in November 2024. The execution and thus the transfer of shares will take place at the turn of the year 2024/2025. ‘We would like to thank Luther for their expert and successful support in our forward-looking decision to sell Elisabeth Hospital to the Vinzenz Gruppe Fulda,’ says EVV Managing Director Stefan Fischer.
