9 Aug
A private equity group based in the Eastern US is currently deploying funds from the firm’s fifth fund, which closed at over $500 million. The firm is currently looking for new firms in the life sciences space, and will allocate to around 10 new firms in 2013. The firm provides growth capital to firms, and also executes buyout transactions. Typically, they invest in middle-market companies that have an enterprise value ranging from $10-100, but their preference is firms with values in the $20-80 million range.

The firm is most interested in biotech companies in the R&D services space, and is most interested in contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs), as well as contract research organizations (CROs). The PE is also seeking firms in the suppliers and engineering space and is looking for firms that are producing reagents.
