On October 25, 2012, PSS World Medical and McKesson announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement providing for McKesson to acquire PSS World Medical for $2.1 billion (including the assumption of debt). Under the terms of the merger agreement, PSS World Medical shareholders will receive $29.00 per share in cash.

The firm's investigation concerns whether PSS World Medical's board of directors breached its fiduciary duties by failing to adequately solicit competing bidders for the Company and obtaining the best possible value for PSS World Medical's shareholders before entering into an agreement with McKesson.
