Context
Permira acquired Ergomed in a recommended cash offer, taking the company private from the London Stock Exchange (AIM). The transaction was driven by the thesis that Ergomed's next phase of growth—requiring significant investment in technology and international expansion (particularly in the US)—could be better executed away from the public markets. The deal structure allowed the founder, Miroslav Reljanović, to roll over a portion of his equity and remain involved, ensuring continuity. Strategically, Permira aims to supercharge Ergomed's "Site Management" model and its pharmacovigilance capabilities through both organic investment and accretive M&A.
This transaction is part of the Healthcare & Pharma industry, which currently tracks an average EBITDA multiple of 13.4x since the beginning of 2026, 1.2% decrease compared to 2025.
