August 11, 2022 – Blue River Financial Group has advised Revival Animal Health, a leading value-added distributor of pet health products used by breeders, animal shelters and other pet health professionals and portfolio company of Incline Equity Partners, on the recent acquisition of Exodus Breeders Corp. The new partnership marks Revival’s first major foray into the equine market.
Founded over 30 years ago, Revival Animal Health has been helping breeders, shelters, groomers, and individual pet owners by sharing pet care knowledge and offering solutions.

Exodus Breeders Corp is a leading distributor of equine and canine reproductive supplies. Based in York, Pennsylvania, Exodus Breeders has been developing and distributing equine reproductive supplies for more than 25 years. The company was founded by veteran equine reproduction professional Jon Wiesman.
“We’re incredibly excited to add Exodus Breeders to the Revival family of brands. It’s a tremendous first step in us extending our passion for reproductive and neonatal health into the equine market,” says Lynn Snodgrass, newly appointed President & CEO at Revival Animal Health.
“It was a pleasure working with the leadership of Exodus Breeders and Revival Animal Health on this transaction. For Revival, this partnership represents a consequential expansion into product categories that will further complement their offerings in reproductive health. For Exodus, an opportunity to continue their growth through Revival’s expanded customer reach. We’re excited for the successes in store for the Revival/Exodus teams!” said Dan Sundby, Managing Director at Blue River.
