TA Associates is in talks to acquire Advanced Medical Solutions in a potential $810m transaction, Reuters reported.

The US-based private equity firm is preparing a possible offer of 280p per share, which would value the wound-care specialist at more than £600m, as it looks to capitalise on relatively low equity valuations in the UK market.

Advanced Medical Solutions develops and supplies wound-care dressing technologies and has previously drawn interest from sponsors, including Bridgepoint, highlighting sustained demand for healthcare assets with stable growth profiles.

Under UK takeover rules, TA Associates must either announce a firm intention to proceed with an offer or withdraw by May 16, setting a clear timeline for the transaction.

The overall approach reflects a broader trend of international buyout firms targeting public companies in London, where valuation gaps have created attractive entry points for private equity capital.
