Third Coast’s Partnership with Incline Equity Partners and Accredited Labs
October, 2025
Third Coast Capital Advisors would like to congratulate our client, Incline Equity Partners, on their approximately $300 million single-asset continuation vehicle for Accredited Labs. Third Coast served as the exclusive buyside advisor to the company during their strong period of M&A growth. We are proud to have sourced and closed fifteen proprietary add-on acquisitions for Accredited Labs since Incline’s initial investment in 2023.
Incline Managing Director, Eric Haufler, who leads the investment for Incline, said the following: “The team at Third Coast was pivotal in helping us build Accredited Labs through a proactive add-on acquisition program. We greatly appreciate Third Coast’s partnership and their approach to creating value through M&A growth.”
