Orpea takes majority stake in Brindley Healthcare
Context
Orpea acquired 50% of Brindley Healthcare, the fourth largest Irish nursing home operator, and simultaneously negotiated a call option enabling it to acquire the remaining 50% and reach full ownership by 2022. The transaction follows Orpea's acquisition of TLC Group earlier in January 2020 and confirms the group's strategic commitment to the Irish elderly care market, where it now becomes the second largest operator nationally. The two acquisitions — TLC and Brindley — are highly complementary geographically, with TLC concentrated in the Greater Dublin county and Brindley providing broader national coverage. Orpea's accelerated Irish development reflects its conviction in the structural growth opportunity presented by Ireland's significant nursing home capacity deficit, with the country targeting 10,000 additional places by 2031.
Brindley Healthcare, which reported an EBITDA margin of [members only] in 2019, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of [members only], to compare with the average observed in the Healthcare & Pharma sector (14.6x in 2020).

Target
Brindley Healthcare is an Irish nursing home operator founded in 2000, ranking as the fourth largest nursing home operator in Ireland at the time of the transaction. The group operates ten establishments with a total capacity of 574 places across Ireland. Brindley has built a solid reputation for quality elderly care delivery across its national network, with a geographic footprint that provides meaningful coverage outside of the Greater Dublin area. The Irish nursing home market is characterised by a structural and growing deficit in care capacity, with the country targeting the creation of 10,000 additional places by 2031 to meet the needs of a rapidly ageing population, making well-run local operators such as Brindley particularly attractive assets for international consolidators.
