EQT Credit, through its Direct Lending investment strategy, is pleased to announce its support for Alanta Health Group (“Alanta” or the “Company”) with EUR 331 million of committed senior facilities. Proceeds were used to refinance the Company’s existing debt as well as provide committed acquisition facilities to support its future growth

Owned by IK Investment Partners since 2016, Alanta is one of the largest certified compounders for patient-individualized infusions, which are applied mainly in oncology treatment in Germany.

Ralph Betz, Managing Director at EQT Partners and Investment Advisor to EQT Credit, commented: “Alanta is the leading German player in compounding and distribution of infusions for oncology treatments. We were particularly attracted by the Company’s high-quality offering and the management team’s impressive track record in developing a vertically-integrated business model. We would like to thank EQT’s Industrial Advisors, who added their knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry to provide key support and insight throughout the due diligence process. This transaction consolidates the long-standing relationship between IK Investment Partners and EQT Credit”

Paul Johnson, Partner at EQT Partners and Investment Advisor to EQT Credit, added: “Alanta’s market-leading position provides it with a strong opportunity to further consolidate the industry. We look forward to supporting Alanta and its management team in their continued growth and expansion.”
