Corporate News
Interim Report for the First Quarter of 2016: financial year starts well -
strategic focus on digitalisation and promoting innovation
- 205,578 patients treated
- Revenues stand at EUR 291.5 million
- EBITDA of approx. EUR 68 million includes positive one-off effect of
roughly EUR 36 million
- Outlook for 2016: Revenues between EUR 1.17 billion and EUR 1.20
billion,EBITDA between EUR 155 million and EUR 165 million
Bad Neustadt / Saale, 6th May 2016
In the first quarter of the current financial year over 200,000 (205,578 to
be precise) patients were treated in the hospitals of RHÖN-KLINIKUM AG.
Revenues for the same period amounted to EUR 291.5 million with earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) standing at
EUR 67.9 million. This also includes a positive special influence in the
amount of EUR 36.4 million after dissolving provisions for warranty claims
from the sale of a total of 43 facilities to Helios/Fresenius which was
completed in 2014. The current financial figures are therefore not directly
comparable with those of previous years due to these ongoing effects on the
balance sheet.
Annual General Meeting on 8th June 2016
The Board of Management and Supervisory Board shall propose to this year's
ordinary Annual General Meeting on 8th June 2016 in Frankfurt/Main the
distribution of a dividend in the amount of EUR 0.80 per non-par share.
This results in a dividend amount of almost EUR 54 million based on the
current number of roughly 67 million shares. RHÖN-KLINIKUM AG also intends
the shareholders to be able to participate extensively in the future
success of the Company by means of dividend payout ratios which are above
60 %, thereby allowing the Company to remain in M-Dax with an attractive
dividend value.
Outlook
For financial year 2016 we expect revenues of EUR 1.17 billion to EUR 1.20
billion and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation
(EBITDA) of between EUR 155 million and EUR 165 million. Positive and
negative one-off effects, the size of which will be a low to medium
two-digit million figure, will continue to influence the corporate results
during this financial year as well and will partially cancel each other
out. They mainly result from handling the transaction with
Fresenius/Helios, the initial consolidation and integration of the
municipal hospital in Bad Neustadt, special budgets for innovation and
e-health, unresolved accounting issues and setting up a substantial
out-patient clinic at the university hospital in Marburg. We assume that
regulatory restrictions will also have a negative impact on our organic
growth in 2016. Against this background we must expect a drop in revenues
of roughly 1 % for the current financial year.
"With an extensive number of initiatives and measures we are pressing ahead
with the digitalisation process in our Company and are also investing in
targeted innovation in order to provide our patients with the best possible
medical care together with a direct link to university standards, also with
an eye to the future," Dr. Martin Siebert stated. The pioneering role in
both areas is also a precondition for pressing ahead with the campus
concept. "We are now placing greater emphasis on the link between
in-patient and out-patient medical care including other areas, such as
rehabilitation, in order to ensure long-term, first-class medical care for
our patients who are particularly in rural areas. We shall also continue to
strengthen and develop this unique position which we have in the market,"
Siebert continued.
