SYRACUSE, NY, February 17, 2023, Berkman Woods, a private equity firm focused on the lower middle market, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire ProValidus Health ("ProValidus" or "the Company"), a healthcare staffing provider based in Syracuse, New York. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

ProValidus Health provides clinical and allied health staffing solutions to hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers, and outpatient care providers across Central New York. The Company places registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, certified nursing assistants, and allied health professionals in both temporary and permanent roles, serving as a trusted staffing partner to healthcare organizations navigating persistent workforce shortages.

"Healthcare staffing is a critical service, and ProValidus has built a reputation for reliability, quality, and deep relationships with the providers it serves," said Ron Martinez, Managing Partner of Berkman Woods. "This acquisition represents our entry into the healthcare services sector and reflects our conviction in the long-term fundamentals of healthcare staffing. We look forward to partnering with the ProValidus team to invest in the Company's infrastructure, expand its geographic reach, and strengthen its position as a preferred staffing partner in the region."

The healthcare staffing industry continues to benefit from favorable secular trends, including an aging population, increasing demand for healthcare services, and a structural shortage of clinical professionals nationwide. ProValidus is well-positioned to capitalize on these dynamics through its established client relationships, experienced recruiting team, and reputation for placing high-quality healthcare professionals.

Berkman Woods intends to support the Company's growth through investments in technology, recruiting infrastructure, and operational systems, while preserving the client-first culture and personalized service model that have driven ProValidus' success.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.
