On this episode of Across the Table, host Kayla McCann Marty is joined by Alexis Rathborne, Managing Director of Investments at Trident for a discussion on the healthcare market and the investment thesis driving Trident’s team. Alexis explains how she applies Trident’s investment thesis – that identifying the right investment and operating partners is key to successful acquisitions – to the specialized physician investments she reviews. For Alexis, the right deal is all about finding the right asset within those specialties and the right partners to work in those sub-industries.
This approach reflects Trident’s belief that their operating partners–including CEOs, physician partners, and others on the ground–are just as important in driving their success as anything else, and they have no problem sharing credit with them.
Throughout the episode, Alexis shares insights into popular sub-sectors of healthcare investing that have interested the Trident team, along with some of the current challenges involved in making an acquisitions deal. She and Kayla also share the opportunities they see in the market and what they anticipate looking ahead.

Acquired Knowledge
Top takeaways from this Across the Table episode
- Having the right asset and partner makes an investment interesting. According to Alexis, Trident is interested in the optometry space due to the level of unconsolidated practices and the quick synergies that can be exercised in the industry.
- Independent sponsors bring unique strengths. Working with operating partners or independent sponsors can help you find unique investment opportunities that are off the beaten path and not banked.
- Valuations have been challenging in healthcare. With tightening debt markets requiring either lower valuations or larger equity investments, valuing acquisitions has been challenging. COVID has also affected practices differently, and there has been a disconnect between valuations and intrinsic value.
