Healthcare M&A
March 2022
Sold To
Narrative: Whilst looking to understand the value of his business and the potential paths to selling it, IE founder, Steve Marsh, came to Bean Partners to gain more insight on what options and strategies existed.
After some very detailed preparation work and implementation of key initiatives, Bean Partners went to market for the sale with US Private Equity backed Lumanity identified as the right buyer. Not only was the value well above benchmark but the structure had a very high proportion of cash up front giving Steve a very strong and clean outcome.
Innovative Edge Founder and CEO, Steve Marsh: "Despite the words of warnings from friends, CEO colleagues, and other advisors, about the perils and stresses of the process - those stresses never materialised. I honestly believe that this is due to the way Bean Partners integrated themselves into the process, proactively navigating me and taking real ownership of all key aspects."
