Private equity deals in healthcare this year may not be on the downward spiral investors initially feared, according to a PitchBook report released Tuesday.
“The ‘sluggish start’ to PE healthcare services dealmaking that we noted in our Q1 update has evolved into slow but steady activity — below last year’s levels but far from a collapse,” the report said.
PitchBook estimates 322 healthcare services deals closed in the first half of 2025, compared with 339 deals in the first half of 2024.
