Lorient has successfully closed fundraising for its third flagship vehicle, Lorient Healthcare Fund III, reaching its $503 million hard cap. Fund III enables Lorient to continue executing its disciplined operational approach to drive growth, enhance efficiencies, and maximize exit value across its portfolio companies. The capital raise received strong backing from Lorient’s existing limited partners as well as several new institutional investors who share the firm’s operationally focused, value-driven philosophy.

Founded in 2015, Lorient is a lower-middle-market healthcare-focused private equity firm with a passion for partnering with entrepreneurs who are committed to improving the healthcare system and building category-leading companies across the providers, services, and technology sectors. Lorient’s investment strategy emphasizes founder buyouts and executive partnerships, supporting proven healthcare operators and leveraging an operational proprietary playbook known as “Morpheus.” Lorient targets growing middle-market companies that have validated their product-market fit but require operational infrastructure and strategic guidance to scale effectively.

Co-Founders David Berman and Jordan Broome said, ”Fund III represents a major step forward in our mission to support companies working to improve the healthcare system and create long-term, sustainable value.
