Foothill Ranch-based nursing home operator SHG Holding Solutions Inc. has filed plans to go public, looking to raise $175 million.
SHG is the parent of Skilled Healthcare Group, which runs more than 70 nursing and assisted-living homes in five states.
Toronto-based investor Onex Corp. acquired Skilled Healthcare for about $750 million in late 2005.
The offering is sizable by Orange County standards of late.
So far, the biggest public offering locally this year was Newport Beach-based Acquicor Technology Inc.’s $150 million deal in March.
