PharmaLogic is a nuclear pharmacy company with 12 locations in the Northeast and Western United States. Financing was provided by CIT Bank N.A., the principal bank subsidiary of CIT.

David Malm, Co-Managing Partner of Webster Capital, said, “We’re excited to partner with the management team at PharmaLogic and CPS’s principals to further strengthen the businesses’ position in our targeted markets.
