Trio of legal teams complete £130m of deals in one week
IN the space of a week, three teams at law firm Bond Dickinson have advised on deals worth £130m.
The trifecta of transactions included a merger, an MBO and an acquisition.
A team led by Alistair Scott-Somers advised on the management buyout of £55m-turnover Exemplar Healthcare , backed by Agilitas, a pan-European mid-market equity firm.
Nigel Williams led a team which advised the owners of Scientific Laboratory Supplies Ltd, distributors of laboratory products on its merger with French-based Dominique Dutscher. The deal created a €180m revenue business.
Thirdly, Simon Pilling and his team advised private equity firm Cairngorm Capital on its majority investment in the Polyframe Group in support of an MBO .
Simon Pilling, corporate partner at Bond Dickinson said: “Since the country voted to leave the EU, there has been a lot of uncertainty about the likely impact on our economy. It is really important to make sure we’re staying ahead of changes and are making sure that our clients are still able to operate successfully.
“The three deals we have completed in the last week represent a tangible vote of confidence in some high performing businesses and we look forward to continuing to work with each of these great businesses.”
