Description

On today’s episode, Dr. Mark Costes sits down with Brannon Moncrief, Principal and CEO of McLerran & Associates, for a deep dive into the current state of the DSO consolidation and private equity landscape. They explore how rising interest rates and a cooling capital market over the last 24 months have forced DSOs to become more disciplined and focused on operational excellence. Brannon shares insights into why joint venture models are gaining popularity, the challenges of recapitalizing DSOs with mixed deal structures, and what practice owners need to know about realistic valuation multiples in today’s market. 

They also touch on political headwinds, upcoming IPOs, and how recent SEC rule changes could inject billions into private equity investments—including dental. Whether you're an emerging group looking to become a platform or a solo doc wondering what your practice is really worth, this episode provides the grounded perspective every dental entrepreneur needs.
