From McGuireWoods.com:

“On this episode of The Banker's Corner, McGuireWoods' Geoff Cockrell chats with Larry Barr, partner at Middle Branch Partners, about the buy side of private equity transactions, particularly in the healthcare industry. Larry also shares his take on some of the drivers bringing private equity investment into the medtech space.

“Despite uncertain waters due to macroeconomic dynamics and uncertainty around credit availability, Larry remains bullish on medtech. “I'm one of those that's a perennial bull,” Larry explains. “As I like to say, I couldn't do what I do for a living if I wasn't an optimist.” He cites a recent medtech deal, coming in at just under $200 million, as proof that there are good transactions in the market and people are going to find a way to close them.”
