Los Angeles, Calif. (PRWEB) June 16, 2014 -- Intrepid Investment Bankers (Intrepid), a leading middle-market investment bank and an active M&A advisor in the beauty care sector, announced today its advisory role in the recent growth equity investment in Envy Medical, Inc. by HCP & Company (HCP).
Envy Medical, a leader in the professional skincare products and services space, develops, markets and sells highly-effective non-invasive skin rejuvenation therapies for patients suffering from either dermatologic or aesthetic conditions. HCP is a Chicago-based private equity firm specializing in growth equity and buyout investments, with approximately $215 million in assets under management.

This is the first time in Envy’s history that we have taken on outside growth capital, and we did so with unanimous board and shareholder support,” said Curtis A. Cluff, Chief Executive Officer of Envy Medical. “That support is due in large part to HCP’s business acumen and an understanding that they bring significant experience to the table as Envy accelerates growth towards becoming a major global player in the specialized skincare market.” “This is an exciting time for the company,” said Ken Karasiuk, Envy Medical Founder and Chairman of the Board.
