U.S. Physical Therapy
The Firm
U.S. Physical Therapy, Inc. operates outpatient physical therapy clinics and an industrial injury prevention business, and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. It grows by buying practices from their owners, announcing each one as it closes, which makes it the most legible buyer in this trade.
The structure is what a searcher should read closely. It buys a MAJORITY and leaves the rest with the seller: sixty-seven percent of a twelve-clinic practice in July 2026, fifty percent of the management company behind an eight-clinic practice in January. The company markets this openly, carrying pages on selling a practice and on what it calls the partnership opportunity.
That shapes the competition. A searcher bidding for a physical therapy practice is bidding against a buyer who does not need to fund the whole price, and against a seller who may prefer keeping a third of the business and a job to taking all the cash and leaving. Knowing which of those the owner wants is most of the negotiation.
What It Buys
Houston, Texas. Outpatient physical therapy practices bought in partial stakes rather than outright, several a year, leaving each selling owner a minority share and a continuing role in the clinic.
