Fundraising Pitch Deck for Medical Company Syncore

Syncore is a medical company that came to Your Startup Guru for a fundraising pitch deck. With over 75,000 medical-associated infection deaths a year and 57% of sterilization processing department workers are not fully qualified, the need for Syncore’s services were overwhelming. However, without a solid pitch deck to raise secure startup capital, it was difficult for them to fill that need.

About Syncore

Syncore was founded on the belief that education and training, along with utilizing today’s technology, can promote healthy change. Syncore offers a holistic approach to healthcare services covering all aspects of a facility:

  • Litigation Testimony
    • The scope of surgery can be very complex. We can create action plans for court testimony and Joint Commission responses. We also offer detailed reports and will speak on behalf of your company. We offer simple solutions as needed in your situation.
  • Staff and Management Training
    • Operating rooms today have service line coordinators and specialty techs for specialty cases but in sterile processing all techs are expected to know everything and it has never worked. Training SPD techs similar to the practices of the O.R. is key to bridging the communication gaps and preventing service delays within your department.
  • Resource Cost Utilization
    • We take a deep dive into your sterile processing department product utilization and your staffs understanding of such resources. We find that on average there is substantial waste that can be easily eliminated with better work practices that will easily satisfy any infection control regulatory agency.
  • Staff Education
    • So your staff knows how to load the autoclave and washer; but does your staff truly understand their job and the science behind it? We give complete competencies in decontamination, assembly, quality assurance, instrumentation, documentation, and will assist in creating an education curriculum or department orientation for your team. We not only will train but will teach your staff as well.
  • Business Strategy
    • Does the equipment in your sterile processing department serves your hospital as intended? We can assist in planning and execution of capital requests, department planning, blueprints, and design flow. Your department has to make sense for surgeon satisfaction and a highly productive team.
  • Policy Creation
    • Once you are satisfied with the implemented changes you must make sure to include the accountability factor. We can help create policies as needed to drive the change into the needed culture change of your facility. We will also come in after the fact and help sustain the change as needed. Your success is our success.

Pharmacy Valuation

Valuation Methods

Our client needed a valuation for the purchase of a pharmacy. A valuation is crucial to determine a reasonable purchase price range for a business. Several methods, adjusted specifically for pharmacies, had to be used to arrive at a valuation. The methods used were Enterprise Value, VC Method, Discounted Cash Flow Method, and the Multiples Methods based on historical financial statements. Then an average was taken from the calculated values to arrive at a valuation.

Enterprise Value

The Enterprise value (EV) measures a company’s total value, often used as a more comprehensive alternative to market capitalization, also known as Equity Value. Also, if the company is not publicly traded, market cap is not an option. To calculate EV, you subtract the market value of liabilities and non-operating assets from the market value of assets and add in non-operating liabilities. Essentially, it is the value of the company’s net operational assets to all investors.

VC

The Venture Capital valuation method is a common method used by venture capitalists to value an investment. To calculate this method, one estimates the investment needed, forecast startup financials, determine the timing of the exit, calculate the multiple at exit, discount to the present value at the desired rate of return, and from there determine valuation and desired ownership stake.

Discounted Cash Flow

The Discounted Cash Flow Method is considered the most detailed and most heavily relied form of valuation for a business. To valuate a company using the DCF method, an investor makes estimates about future cash flows and the ending value of the investment and adjusts those future values to the present value using an appropriate discount rate. The sum of the discounted amounts is the intrinsic value of the investment.

Multiples

The Multiples Method is a valuation method based on the theory that similar assets sell at similar prices. The method takes a financial ratio, such as price-to-earnings, or equity value, or enterprise value (as discussed above), then multiply it by a specific number unique to the industry sector that the subject company is in. This gives a calculated value of what the company is worth.
