Mercapital puts Gasmedi on the block
Spanish private equity firm Mercapital has hired Goldman Sachs to manage a sales process for its portfolio company, Gasmedi.
Today is the deadline for potential buyers to submit non-binding offers for the business, which supplies respiratory home therapies (RHTs) and medical gases to hospitals.
Mercapital, which acquired the company in a deal valued at €275m in August 2006, has put a price tag of €400-500m on Gasmedi, which is believed to have been one of the investor's most successful ventures to date. The Alcorcón-based company generated sales of €73m in 2010, compared to sales of €42m on an EBITDA of €30m four years ago.
