Case study

Fast Pace Urgent Care

Overview

In 2012, RCP invested $4 million in debt and equity alongside a funded sponsor to Fast Pace Urgent Care (“Fast Pace”). A the time of RCP’s investment, Fast Pace was operating four mature and four newly opened clinics in rural Tennessee markets where access to high quality, affordable healthcare was limited. RCP’s $14 million in follow-on capital enabled Fast Pace to accelerate its de-novo site growth strategy while minimizing dilution for shareholders.

Outcome

Over the next four years, Fast Pace grew to 56 locations, all in rural markets, and created more than 500 jobs in economically challenged geographies. The company was sold to a middle market private equity group in 2017, and was named Portfolio Company of the Year by the Small Business Investors Alliance.
