Walden Group Arranges the sale of Argentum Medical, LLC to Shore Capital Partners

The Walden Group is pleased to announce that it represented Argentum Medical, LLC, an advanced woundcare company, in its sale of equity to Shore Capital Partners.

Argentum's core platform technology, Silverlon, is a uniquely designed silver-plated nylon matrix that releases potent silver ions into the wound without staining the skin or increasing bioburden. Validated by several clinical studies, Silverlon dressings are used by surgeons and other healthcare professionals around the world on surgical wounds, burns, chronic wounds, IV catheter-related wounds, and for negative pressure wound therapy.

In 2015, the U.S. Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (“BARDA”) awarded Argentum a multi-year contract up to $16.5 million to support new Silverlon indications for ionizing radiation and sulfar mustard burns. In addition, BARDA selected Silverlon from a broad range of wound care products for inclusion on an annual basis in the Strategic National Stockpile.

The Walden Group prepared Argentum and its principals from the inception of the transaction and helped to negotiate the terms and steer the transaction to closing.

On the legal side, Griffen WIlliams LLP (Pat Griffen) and Moomjian, Waite & Coleman, LLP (Gary Moomjian) represented Argentum, and Winston & Strawn LLP (Matt Bergman and Jamie Lepri) represented Shore Capital.
