NEW YORK , Aug. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CIT, a division of First Citizens Bank, today announced that its Healthcare Finance business increased its existing credit facilities for FOX Rehabilitation by $50 million for a total financing of $172.3 million.
The original financing was developed in connection with FOX's acquisition by Blue Wolf Capital Partners in February 2019. Since then, FOX, a leading provider of in-home physical, occupational and speech therapy services to older adult patients throughout the U.S., has generated significant organic growth via increased clinician count and patient volume and has expanded into eight additional states.
"The increased financing will support our continued growth and strategic business plans," said Dr. Robyn Kjar, CEO at FOX. "We appreciate the leadership and expertise of the CIT team throughout the financing process."
"FOX is an outstanding leader in providing therapy services to patients nationwide," said William Douglass, managing director and group head for CIT's Healthcare Finance team. "We have worked hard to understand their needs and provide the right financing package to support their business objectives."
"FOX is a longtime CIT client," said William Duke, a managing director in Healthcare Finance. "We appreciate the opportunity to extend that relationship with this latest financing package and look forward to supporting the company's growth plans in the future."
CIT's Healthcare Finance unit, part of the Commercial Finance division, provides comprehensive financing and banking solutions to middle market healthcare companies across the U.S. By using a client-focused and industry-centric model, Healthcare Finance can tailor its products and services to help clients meet their needs for capital.
