ICANotes

Investment by
Sheridan Capital

ICANotes, a purpose-built EHR for behavioral health, completed a majority recapitalization with Sheridan Capital Partners. The process was run competitively, with multiple investors, real tension, and a closing dynamic that required active management throughout. Specialist expertise recast financial metrics that would have undermined the company’s intrinsic value, repositioned the story, engineered the process, and delivered an outcome the business had earned.
