As we have done with ATI, we will continue to partner with proven leaders.”

Greg Steil, CEO of ATI, adds “The story of ATI is just beginning. With this investment, we are poised to do great things. GTCR’s deep healthcare expertise will help us achieve our strategic vision of continued growth and success, building upon the strength and stability we have already achieved.”

GTCR focuses on investing in growth companies in the Healthcare, Financial Services & Technology, and Information Services & Technology industries and has invested more than $8 billion in over 200 companies since 1980.

Livingstone acted as financial advisors to GTCR. David Sulaski, Partner at Livingstone Chicago, commented: “We have been great admirers of the ATI management team for many years and saw an immediate fit between their vision for the business and GTCR’s investment philosophy. This deal offers further evidence of the success of our Healthcare sector team’s coverage across the US and Europe.”
