Northeast Recovery LLC Completes Asset Acquisition from Ark National Holdings

On October 17, 2025, Northeast Recovery LLC announced the successful completion of a pivotal debt-for-assets transaction with Ark National Holdings LLC, a prominent entity providing clinical and psychiatric care for substance use and mental health disorders in Massachusetts. This move, executed under the provisions of Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code, allows Northeast Recovery to accept collateral as satisfaction for secured obligations owed by Ark Behavioral Health and its affiliates.

The transaction marks a significant resolution to long-standing challenges faced by Ark Behavioral Health in relation to its senior secured creditors. With the acquisition of these vital assets, Northeast Recovery is poised to enhance its operational efficiency and streamline its strategic initiatives, particularly with its newly integrated subsidiaries: Bedrock Rehab LLC and Ashby Behavioral Health LLC. These facilities will continue delivering exemplary behavioral healthcare services through the Bedrock Recovery Center and Spring Hill Recovery Centers.

CEO Jane Bombardier remarked, "This structured outcome preserves all employee positions, streamlines the balance sheet, and aligns resources around our highest-potential opportunities. By consolidating key assets, we are positioned to fulfill our commitment to provide first-class care to our patients."

As the demand for institutional-quality, scalable platforms continues to rise, we are prepared to meet this challenge with disciplined growth and innovative solutions. Our focus will also include expanding our services in comprehensive mental health areas and leveraging technological advancements for improved clinical outcomes."

Adding to this sentiment, Hugh Eaton IV, another principal at Northeast Recovery, emphasized the organization's commitment to delivering customized care for each client.
