About DRI Capital: DRI Capital is a pioneer and global leader in healthcare investing and was the original innovator of the healthcare royalty market. The firm, originally called Drug Royalty Corporation, was founded in 1992 to purchase royalty streams on pharmaceutical products and to make healthcare equity investments. In 1993, the firm was listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and remained publicly traded until 2002 when it was purchased by its current owners and taken private. In 2006, DRI Capital successfully raised $800 million ($240 million in equity and $560 million in debt) for its first managed fund, Drug Royalty I. With Drug Royalty I, DRI completed its transition to a private equity fund manager business model. In 2010, DRI successfully raised $926 million of capital commitments ($701 million in equity for its second managed fund, Drug Royalty II, and $225 million in equity for Drug Royalty II Co-Investment Fund).
