IHH healthcare Q1 net profit falls to RM514mil
KUALA LUMPUR: IHH Healthcare Bhd has recorded a drop in net profit to RM514 million in the first quarter of its financial year ending Dec 31, 2025 (1Q FY2025) from RM768 million in 1Q FY2024.
Revenue for the quarter under review rose to RM6.29 billion from RM5.96 billion last year, due to gains in the hospital and healthcare segments and Parkway Life REIT (PLife REIT), the company said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia.
"Hospital and healthcare revenue in 1Q FY2025 increased by 7.0 per cent to RM6.05 billion, driven by sustained demand for quality healthcare services, a case-mix of more acute patients, and price adjustments to counter inflation.
"The consolidation of Island Hospital, which was acquired in November 2024, also contributed to the increase in revenue," it said.
IHH Healthcare added that PLife REIT's external revenue for 1Q FY2025 rose 15 per cent to RM45 million, driven by contributions from the 11 nursing home properties in France acquired in December 2024.
The company remains in a strong position, given its track record in delivering high-quality and cost-effective healthcare.
By leveraging operational synergies across its international network, IHH Healthcare remains confident in its ability to maintain cost efficiency while upholding its commitment to value-based healthcare.
"Despite global economic and geopolitical headwinds, the group remains well poised to navigate uncertainties, underpinned by strong fundamentals, strategic growth initiatives, and long-term healthcare megatrends," it said
