Eversheds

Eversheds continued to bolster its market share in the mid-cap private equity space during the judging period, demonstrating significant annual growth in its practice in the City and internationally. Notable deals included the public-to-private of Catalis by NorthEdge, the sale of SpaMedica by CPBE to Nordic, the acquisition of Fresh Dental by Livingbridge, the complex corporate carve-out of Armstrong Ceiling Solutions from Knauf by Aurelius, and acting for management on a significant minority stake sale of Waterlogic to BCI. Eversheds highlighted in its entry that the majority of deals came from houses with which the firm has long-term relationships.
