IHH Healthcare’s profit jumps by 37% to $79.6m

Reaping time has come for its new hospitals.

The international healthcare provided appeared to be in the pink of health for the first quarter as it registered strong growth, with its revenue increasing by 24% to RM2.5b on back of the sustained growth of its existing hospitals across all home markets.

According to a press release by IHH Healthcare, the continued ramp up of newer hospitals also boosted the firm’s growth.

“The acquisition of Continental Hospitals in March 2015 and Global Hospitals in December 2015 in India also contributed to the Group’s revenue in the first quarter of 2016,” the report said.

With the firm’s expanded presence in India, the country now joins Malaysia, Singapore, and Turkey as its fourth home market.

“Stripping out exceptional items and the contribution from PLife REIT, operational PATMI* grew a steady 4% to RM223.8 million,” the report said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
