California, January 2022 – Harbor Healthcare is pleased to announce the successful sale of a California based home infusion pharmacy, a leading provider of infused and specialty drugs to patients within Northern California. The strategic acquirer maintains a nationwide presence in the home infusion space and this acquisition provides them with key access to a competitive market. The long-lasting relationships and rapport of the California home infusion business made it a unique and advantageous geographic advancement for the acquirer. Customers are excited about the new services and technology the acquirer brings and retaining the existing team members will help to ensure continuity during integration. The strategically planned uninterrupted service will maximize growth and value, and maintain the seller’s legacy.
“I am very proud of our team’s achievements and believe this acquirer is the ideal partner to support our future growth initiatives,” said the owner of the home infusion pharmacy. “They bring significant resources, a collaborative approach, and extensive experience creating strategic and operational value in the home infusion space. We are very pleased to have been introduced to them by the Harbor Healthcare team. Furthermore, we couldn’t have accomplished this engagement without their specific expertise in home infusion pharmacy.”
“Joining a legacy pharmacy with a management team that brings decades of experience in the space is an exceptional opportunity. With the expanded customer facing team, the newly formed business is in an ideal position to service patients while expanding its geographical footprint. We are excited to watch this pharmacy grow from the synergies created by this investment.” said Michael Cammeyer, Managing Director of Harbor Healthcare.
“The demand and adoption of alternate infusion sites increased significantly during the pandemic. Combined with the rising prevalence of chronic ailments, the home infusion market is poised for strong growth. That said, payers continue to complicate the segment and operators must command two battlefronts: competition and reimbursement. When a seller approaches the marketplace, it is important they are aware of the business assets that give them an advantage in their space, because not all acquirers will realize the synergies from a partnership, that in turn impacts enterprise value. This was an exciting opportunity in which the assets of both parties were recognized and tremendous value was created for both buyer and seller.” said Mark Alford, Director of Pharmacy Strategy at Harbor Healthcare.
