Each episode dissects a specific transaction, from sourcing to exit, using real numbers, term sheets, and public filings. The show serves founders weighing an offer, analysts building models, and investors tracking the industry. Expect critical discussions on valuation multiples, earnouts, debt covenants, and the cultural friction between PE operators and portfolio-company management. Lucas, a journalist with a decade covering dealmaking, guides the numbers; Luna, an engaged interlocutor, presses on execution risk and founder psychology. Together they ask: What separates a value-destroying roll-up from a platform that compounds for a decade? No hype, no jargon — just the tradecraft of buying and scaling businesses. #PrivateEquity #LBO #RollUp #BuyAndBuild #PE #DueDiligence #Valuation #MergersAndAcquisitions #FamilyBusinessExit #SearchFund #EBITDA #DealSourcing #SMB #BusinessAcquisition #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Finance #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","last_synced_at":"2026-07-19T04:18:12.773861+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630"},"episode":{"title":"How Private Equity Is Buying Up Veterinary Practices","slug":"how-private-equity-is-buying-up-veterinary-practices","published_at":"2026-07-04T17:01:01+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630/how-private-equity-is-buying-up-veterinary-practices","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-buyout-show-with-fexingo-private-equity-roll-ups-and-business-acquisitions-7871630","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-buyout-show/episode-0093.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/the-buyout-show/episode-0093.mp3","summary":"In this episode of The Buyout Show, Lucas and Luna dive into the wave of private equity acquisitions rolling through the veterinary industry. With an estimated 20 to 25 percent of US veterinary practices now owned by non-clinician investors, the hosts examine the economics driving the consolidation and what it means for pet owners, veterinarians, and the quality of care. Lucas explains the roll-up playbook—how firms like PetVet and Mars Inc. are aggregating independent clinics into regional networks to capture scale advantages in purchasing, staffing, and specialty referrals. Luna raises the friction: rising prices for routine procedures, the tension between clinical autonomy and corporate protocols, and the emergence of a two-tier veterinary market. The conversation looks back at a case study from the UK, where similar consolidation has already played out, to ask whether American pet owners should brace for higher costs even as access to advanced care improves. #PrivateEquity #VeterinaryMedicine #PetCare #RollUps #BusinessAcquisitions #VetClinics #MarsInc #PetVet #Consolidation #PetOwners #Veterinarians #AnimalHealth #Business #Investing #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheBuyoutShow #MergersAndAcquisitions Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo","meta_description":"In this episode of The Buyout Show, Lucas and Luna dive into the wave of private equity acquisitions rolling through the veterinary industry.
