The refinancing marks a significant milestone in the company’s growth journey towards reaching more people with quality diagnostic solutions with the aim of improving treatment outcomes globally.
SSI Diagnostica Group has been owned by Adelis Equity Partners since 2016, followed by a reinvestment in 2022 through a continuation vehicle alongside its LPs. The Group was advised on the refinancing by Lazard (financial advisor) and Kromann Reumert (legal advisor).
