Stonepeak, an alternative investment firm, agreed to acquire Akumin, an outpatient diagnostic imaging services provider, for $600m. "Stonepeak is committed to working closely with Akumin as it moves through this process. The critical nature of the services Akumin provides to health systems, hospitals, physician groups, and patients all across the country gives us confidence in the inherent value of the business, and we believe that this path forward will fortify the company's balance sheet as it looks towards its next phase of growth," James Wyper, Stonepeak Senior Managing Director.
