GCG’s Q4 2024 Healthcare Industry Update provides an overview of the latest trends in the sector, including recent performance, valuation multiples, and the state of the middle-market M&A environment.

Key findings include the following:

• GCG has identified several key trends in 2024 that will shape the healthcare M&A in the coming years. This is largely driven by growing pipeline of assets coming to market, substantial available capital for both corporate and private equity investors, anticipated interest rate cuts, and optimism surrounding the incoming administration’s pro-business stance are all expected to drive increased healthcare services deal activity in 2025.
• In Q4 2024, healthcare deal activity remained strong, with 784 transactions completed, slightly down from the peak earlier in the year  but reflecting sustained momentum. Despite fluctuations in deal count, average deal values have remained relatively high indicating larger transactions are driving activity.
• Based on a representative set of publicly traded companies in the Healthcare industry, public companies traded at an average multiple of 18.2x EBITDA and 3.5x revenue as of 12/31/2024.
