Summary
Blue Owl Capital has completed its acquisition of Sila Realty Trust, a healthcare-focused net lease REIT with 137 properties across 65 U.S. markets. Shareholders received $30.38 per share in cash, representing a 19% premium to the April 17, 2026 closing price before the deal was announced. The transaction received overwhelming shareholder support, with over 98% voting in favor at the June 26 Special Meeting.
With the merger closed, SILA has ceased to exist as an independent public company. All six directors and both executive officers departed as part of the transaction, the common stock stopped trading and will be delisted from the NYSE, and the company will file Form 15 to suspend SEC reporting obligations.
All restricted stock and deferred stock units vested at closing and converted to the same $30.38 per share cash consideration. The portfolio is now part of Blue Owl's Real Assets platform. For former SILA shareholders, this is a completed transaction with no further action required. The cash consideration has been paid and the company's public existence has ended. The delisting and officer departures are standard outcomes of a take-private merger, not operational concerns.
