Amundi et al. back Numerix bolt-on of GIOL
French medical imaging business Groupe Numerix has raised additional capital from a pool of private equity backers to finance the bolt-on of Global Imaging On Line (GIOL).
Amundi Private Equity, CM-CIC Capital Privé and Isatis Capital provided Numerix with €12m in fresh capital to finance the acquisition. The company has been backed by Naxicap since a €1.5m investment in 2010 – the GP does not appear to have subscribed to the capital increase on this occasion.
This is not the first add-on for the business: in 2013, Numerix acquired imaging specialist Pige Medical to bolster its offering.
Company
Established in 2006 to facilitate the buyout of Numerix Radiologie by manager Didier Sensey, Numerix specialises in medical imaging technology used in radiology services. In addition, the company offers technology to handle a number of services linked to radiology departments in hospitals, such as booking systems, monitoring and maintenance. According to the investors, Numerix has quadrupled its turnover and headcount since inception.
Founded in 1999, GIOL offers similar services and claims to have built up a 25% market share in the medical imaging segment. The company employs 75 people and generates an €8.6m turnover.
People
Amundi, CM-CIC and Isatis were represented by Vinarom Vilaihongs, Nicolas Meunier and Laurent Baudino respectively.
