Valedo sells Cambio Healthcare to Investcorp
Swedish PE firm Valdeo Partners has sold its majority stake in healthcare technology business Cambio Healthcare Systems to Investcorp.
The transaction is the fourth exit for Valedo Partners Fund II, following divestments of Evidensia, Jobmeal and the partial sale of Joe & the Juice. The fund held a final close on SEK 2bn in 2011.
DnB is providing a debt package to support the transaction.
Cambio’s management has retained a minority stake in the business.
During Valedo’s six-and-a-half-year holding period, Camio Healthcare doubled its staff from 300 to 600 and increased sales from SEK 200m to SEK 490m.
Investcorp recently raised $1bn in for Investcorp European Buyout Fund 2019, in a secondaries deal backed by Coller Capital. It is understood that extra capital for new primary buyouts of European companies was included in the deal but it is unclear whether Investcorp used the vehicle for the buyout of Cambio.
