|---|---|
| Transferring Party | QuadraMed Corporation (QDHC), a provider of healthcare information technologies. |
| Sector | Data Management/ Healthcare IT |
| Date | December 8, 2009 |
| Analysis New platform for Francisco Partners. Operating as a private company enables QuadraMe to focus on operations not short-term results for the public markets. The deal is attractive given the emphasis on IT in healthcare reform and the availability of stimulus funds for the sector. The company provides integrated, workflow-driven solutions for clinicians, patient information retrieval systems, revenue cycle solutions and electronics records and document management products, among other things. Deal value -- $126m, a 33% stock price premium. QuadraMed's TTM revenue and EBITDA were $126m and $14m, respectively. There is no financing condition, but Wells Fargo and Silicon Valley Bank have committed to provide debt financing. This is Francisco's 5th separate healthcare IT investment. | |
