IHH Healthcare to benefit from two new hospitals

It recently launched GHK and Acibadem Altunizade.

Whilst IHH Healthcare incurred startup costs from the opening of Gleneagles HK (GHK) and Acibadem Altunizade hospitals in March, analysts are optimistic for a positive ramp up.

According to John Cheong, GHK has shown good progress financially as the EBITDA loss narrowed MYR12m (US$2.8m) QoQ to MYR72m (US$16.9m) in 2Q17, and it has started to take on high intensity cases.

"In addition, GHK has been accepted by several insurance groups and it expects to start accepting their patients in the next few months," analyst said.

Meanwhile, Acibadem Altunizade has reached positive EBITDA of MYR16m from a MYR5m loss in 1Q17, thanks to the transferral of high intensity cases from two nearby Acibadem hospitals.

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.
