About
Company:
St. Croix Hospice (“St. Croix”) is a provider of end-of-life hospice care for patients suffering from a life-limiting illness or terminal disease. The company is a dominant player in the underserved Upper Midwest region.
Background:
St. Croix was founded in 2008 by three members of senior management with financial backing from several wealthy individuals. Clearview recognized an opportunity to back an impressive, experienced management team in a large, growing, fragmented industry, supported by an aging population and increasing utilization of the hospice benefit nationwide. The transaction provided liquidity to the high-net-worth individuals, while management reinvested the majority of its proceeds alongside Clearview in the recapitalized business.
