Houlihan Lokey Advises DentaCore

Houlihan Lokey is pleased to announce that DentaCore AG has secured a financing solution of CHF 150 million to repay its existing debt and fund future acquisitions through a hunting line. The financing package also includes a revolving credit facility and an incremental facility. Houlihan Lokey’s Debt Capital Solutions team acted as the exclusive financing advisor to DentaCore. The transaction was signed on 26 March 2026 and successfully closed on 31 March 2026.

DentaCore is a leading Swiss dental platform that has scaled rapidly to more than 60 dental practices and laboratories through over 40 acquisitions since its founding in 2021. The group pursues an ambitious buy‑and‑build strategy, focusing on established dental practices and laboratories with strong reputations and stable patient bases. Following the acquisition, clinics are being integrated into a professionalised platform, which allows dentists to retain full clinical autonomy while benefiting from centralised support, governance, and scale advantages. Clinical excellence, regulatory compliance, and transparent governance are core principles of the platform. DentaCore operates in the defensive and highly fragmented Swiss dental market, which is characterised by resilient demand fundamentals.

Houlihan Lokey acted as the exclusive financing advisor on all commercial aspects of the transaction. Together with DentaCore, Houlihan Lokey structured a highly competitive financing package with flexibility to support the company’s buy-and-build strategy.
