maconda News May 2014
maconda was recently engaged as advisor for several transactions in the dynamic and complex healthcare market. A Commercial Due Diligence in the first quarter of 2014 focused on a specialized company in highly specialized intensive care, another in the same period was conducted in the market for diabetes products. Already in the previous quarter, a leading chain of nursing homes was the primary focus. The maconda team was entrusted with these demanding assignments due to its many years of experience in the healthcare market, health insurance, and its excellent network in the sectors under review.
The Linimed-Fazmed Group is the leading provider of home-based intensive care in eastern Germany. The corporate group focuses on patients requiring round-the-clock monitoring, primarily in the form of continuous ventilation. In regular audits conducted by the independent Medical Service of the Health Insurance Funds, Linimed and Fazmed consistently perform well. The two companies from Thuringia have now been acquired by Vitruvian Partners LLP. The corporate group is part of the rapidly growing care sector in Germany. Demographic trends suggest continued high growth in the future.
In the Commercial Due Diligence for Vitruvian Partners, based in London and Munich, the key success drivers and trends of the outpatient intensive care market were identified and evaluated. As part of the strategic and operational company analysis, the individual locations of the corporate group were examined and compared with competitors. A large number of expert interviews were conducted to accurately assess the positioning of the two target companies.
Commercial Due Diligence on a specialized retailer for diabetic supplies
As part of another engagement in the healthcare sector, maconda conducted a Commercial Due Diligence on a specialized retailer for diabetic supplies. For this purpose, maconda thoroughly examined the market, the company’s target group, and new diabetes products. To better understand the relatively opaque market and especially its prospects, the maconda expert group modeled, among other things, a forecast for the development of the number of diabetics in Germany. Comprehensive interviews with experts were conducted to analyze the regulatory situation and its impact on the target company.
Commercial Due Diligence for a large chain of nursing homes
Already in the last quarter of the previous year, maconda completed a very comprehensive Commercial Due Diligence on a leading operator of inpatient care facilities. This included examining the highly complex market for outpatient vs. inpatient care, analyzing the highly regulated environment and financing models, and reviewing in detail the critical issue of personnel recruitment and qualification. As part of the due diligence, each individual location was thoroughly examined, including occupancy rates, financial performance, local competition, and positioning.
