Summary

KeyBanc Capital Markets and Cain Brothers successfully closed the syndication of $1.07 billion Senior Secured Credit Facilities for US Fertility Enterprises, LLC, a portfolio company of Amulet Capital Partners and L Catterton Partners. 

Proceeds from the transaction supported the recapitalization of US Fertility, which included a new equity investment led by L Catterton and the Company’s acquisition of Genetics & IVF Institute.  The financing was comprised of a $120 million Revolving Credit Facility, an $825 million Term Loan B, and a $125 million Delayed Draw Term Loan. 

KBCM was selected to serve as Joint Lead Arranger and Administrative Agent based on Cain Brothers’ expertise in the women’s health space, our long-standing relationship with Amulet Capital Partners, and our best-in-class leveraged finance platform.
