Editor's Notes

  • #9 “(From 2008-2013) The greatest amount of funding, $2.9 billion, went into startups that were working on infrastructure issues, like interoperability and health analytics. Digital health startups that work on engagement offerings, which Accenture says includes wearable devices and incentive programs, received $2.6 billion. Telehealth services also raised $2.6 billion and remote patient monitoring raised $2.1 billion.”
  • #10 Unicorns in the health technology sector are admittedly rare. It is important to note that 73% of health technology companies targeted for acquisition have not raised any institutional money (CB Insights)
  • #12 EBITDA multiples for public healthcare technology companies have been holding steady around 22x going into 2015 and it seems the market is consistently valuing these companies based on EBITDA as opposed to sales. It’s also important to note that these are significantly higher than EBITDA multiples in 2012, which hovered closer to 17.5x.
  • #13 Looking at M&A activity for healthcare technology, Total Deal value for Q1 2015 is up slightly from Q1 2014 but more importantly, total Deal count for Q1 2015 is the highest it has been in the past three years.
  • #14 In that time period, the top acquirers by deal count include some familiar names and Many of them are investing in certain themes. Emdeon for example has been focused on healthcare payment solutions, IMS Health has been busy shoring up its analytics capabilities, and Mediware’s recent acquisitions suggest an interest in expanding their reach in the home healthcare market.
  • #15 And their streak really started with the acquisition of one CORUM’S clients, Fasttrack, in June of 2013- which nearly doubled their customer base in the home health market.
  • #16 So Looking at deals by transaction size, Sub $10M deals are up 76% in 2014. This was also reflected in the increased total deal count seen last year. 2014 also saw the return of deals north of a billion dollars, which is a good sign.
  • #17 Not too much has changed in the geographic breakdown of healthtech targets over the last three years, About 75% of targets are located in the United States and Canada-- but in 2014 we saw Europe’s share slightly increase.
  • #18 Looking at all healthtech deals in 2014 compared to the previous year, categories such as mobile and analytics showed the most growth. While EHR and practice management are slowing down somewhat, important deals in this category continue to be made, such as…
  • #19 …Athenahealth’s acquisition of EHR solutions provider RazorInsights for $40M earlier this year, which will expand their presence in the 50 bed and under inpatient care environment, currently accounting for one third of the US hospital market.
  • #20 In December, Swedish senior citizen mobile device manufacturer Doro acquired social alarm and personal security device maker Caretech for nearly $32M. This allows Doro to enter the growing telehealth market and leverage their existing customer base.
  • #21 In the analytics space, Premier’s acquisition of Theradoc from Hospira for $117M propelled them to the top position in the clinical infection surveillance market.
  • #22 And Bina Technologies’ acquisition by Roche for an undisclosed amount will enable Roche to expand their genomic analysis solutions portfolio.
  • #23 3D technology is also of interest to buyers as seen in 3D Systems’ acquisition of Simbionix, the leading provider of 3D virtual reality surgical simulation, for $120M last year, expands their reach from the training room to the operating room and their complementary global sales channels and deep clinical relationships should accelerate cross-platform adoption.
  • #24 Another deal in a similar space, was Materialise’s acquisition of CORUM CLIENT Orthoview for $14.25 million, which allowed Materialise to expand its portfolio of 3D printed health solutions.
  • #25 In the insurance payment solutions space, Capario’s acquisition last year by Emdeon for $115M will accelerate their ability to provide solutions for revenue cycle management.
  • #26 We are also seeing tech companies enter the digital health market. An example of this is ProtoGeo’s acquisition by Facebook, which signifies their growing interest in mobile fitness and telemedicine.
  • #27 And Box’s acquisition of MedXT from Clariso for $3.8 million shows their interest in entering the healthcare vertical since hospitals represent the fastest growing part of the cloud storage business. MedXT’s technology improves interoperability, which is a theme that will grow in importance as healthcare providers produce more and more data.
