10:15 AM EDT, 04/20/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Sila Realty Trust ( SILA ) agreed to be acquired and taken private by certain affiliates of Blue Owl Capital's (OWL) real estate unit in an all-cash deal worth roughly $2.4 billion.

Shareholders of net lease real estate investment trust Sila will receive $30.38 per share, representing a 19% premium to the stock's closing price on Friday, the companies said Monday.

The transaction, which requires approval from Sila's shareholders, is anticipated to complete in the second or third quarter of this year. Upon completion, the company will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange.

"The consummation of this transaction will provide significant and immediate realized benefit to our shareholders," Sila Chief Executive Michael Seton said in a statement.

Shares of Sila were up 19% in Monday trade. Asset manager Blue Owl rose 1%.

Sila, which is focused on investing in healthcare facilities, said its portfolio comprised 137 real estate properties and three undeveloped land parcels in the US as of end-March. Data on its website showed its portfolio includes 86 medical outpatient buildings, 25 inpatient rehabilitation facilities, and 26 surgical and specialty facilities.

"This transaction provides us with a compelling opportunity to acquire a scaled portfolio with durable cash flows and attractive long-term growth characteristics, while further expanding Blue Owl managed funds' exposure to an asset class and sector we view as both resilient and essential given its critical role in both society and the economy," Marc Zahr, co-president and global head of real assets at Blue Owl, said.

In February, Sila reported fourth-quarter adjusted funds from operations of $0.55 per share, up from $0.54 a year ago. Revenue rose to $50.7 million from $46.5 million.

Sila plans to pay up to two regular quarterly dividends ahead of deal completion.
