Target

Medit, founded by Professor Chang Min-ho, makes 3D intraoral scanners for dentistry and was reported as the global No.1 with a 24% market share.

Deal rationale

Seller Unison Capital Korea bought 50%+1 share of Medit for about KRW 320bn (EV ~KRW 640bn) at end-2019 and ran a 2022 sale; after price talks with the GS-Carlyle consortium failed, MBK was named preferred bidder. Edaily reported MBK valued the digital shift in dentistry and Medit's earnings growth, funding about KRW 1tn from its Fund V with the rest in acquisition financing. Founder Chang and management reinvested for a 30% stake.
