MediClin: Group sales increased by EUR 9.3 mill. or 3.6 % in the first
half-year of 2014 - Group operating result improved by EUR 6.7 mill.
Offenburg, July 31, 2014 - MEDICLIN Aktiengesellschaft (MediClin) achieved
Group sales of EUR 266.7 mill. (1 HY 2013: EUR 257.4 mill.) in the first
half-year of 2014 thus being EUR 9.3 mill. or 3.6 % above the previous
first half-year's value. The occupancy rate of the Group rose to 87.2 % (1
HY 2013: 85.3 %) compared with the same period of the previous year.
Raw materials and consumables used were below the previous year's value
despite the sales increase; staff costs and other operating expenses
increased proportionally less than sales.
Compared to the first half-year of 2013 the Group operating result improved
by EUR 6.7 mill. from EUR -3.6 mill to EUR 3.1 mill. and the result after
tax attributable to shareholders of MediClin AG by EUR 6.6 mill. from EUR
-5.6 mill. to EUR 1.0 mill.
Sales and earnings development in both segments post-acute and acute are
satisfying
Sales of the segments post-acute and acute were EUR 5.4 mill. (+3.7 %)
respective EUR 4.1 mill. (+4.0 %) up against previous years' values. Only
sales of the nursing care business area decreased by EUR 0.2 mill. to EUR
6.5 mill. Due to higher sales and moderately increased expenses the result
of the post-acute segment improved by EUR 5.0 mill. from EUR -2.5 mill. to
EUR +2.5 mill. and of the acute segment by EUR 2.0 mill. to EUR 5.1 mill.
compared to the same period of the previous year.
In the first half-year of 2014 EUR 9.4 mill. (gross) was invested in
non-current assets (1 HY 2013: EUR 8.6 mill.). As of June 30, 2014 cash and
cash equivalents were EUR 11.5 mill. (30.06.2013: EUR 9.7 mill.) and the
equity ratio was 47.3 % (30.06.2013: 48.5 %).
In the first half-year of 2014 MediClin employed on average 6,386
employees, measured in full-time employees (1 HY 2013: 6,371 full-time
employees).
If one compares the second quarter 2014 with the first quarter 2014 the
post-acute segment posted further sales increases and result improvements
in the second quarter of 2014. In line with expectations the acute segment
could not reach the high sales figures of the first quarter 2014 leading to
a lower segment result compared to the first quarter of 2014.
Outlook
Thanks to good business development of the first-half year of 2014 and the
sales and earnings improvements that are expected on the back of the
measures already initiated, the Management Board assumes that the target
margins for both the Group and the segments will be reached in 2014.
Der interim report as of June 30, 2014 will be available from August 8,
2014 under www.mediclin.de in German and English.
