SUMMARY OF MANTA BIDCO LIMITED RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
INTRODUCTION
Following the acquisition by Manta Bidco Limited ("Manta Bidco" or "Group") (a consortium comprising Remgro and
MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company SA) and subsequent delisting of Mediclinic Group Limited ("Mediclinic"), there
is no regulatory requirement for Mediclinic to release financial results. However, considering the significant contribution
by Manta Bidco, the holding company of Mediclinic, to Remgro's results and intrinsic net asset value, Remgro is releasing
a voluntary statement containing a summary of Manta Bidco's financial results for the year ended 31 March 2025. Manta
Bidco's financial results, including divisional results and reconciliations ("Manta Bidco Abridged Results"), can be
accessed at the following link to Remgro's website https://www.remgro.com/investor-centre/mediclinic-results/.

has been prepared on the basis that the acquisition of Mediclinic took place on 1 April 2023 and therefore includes
Manta Bidco purchase price allocation (PPA) adjustments for a twelve-month period to 31 March 2024. Refer to page
9 of the Manta Bidco Abridged Results for a reconciliation between the previously published Mediclinic FY24 financial
information and the Manta Bidco FY24 pro forma financial information.
2. The percentage variances are calculated in unrounded US dollar values and not in millions.
3. The Group uses adjusted income statement reporting as non-IFRS measures in evaluating performance and to provide
consistent and comparable reporting. Refer to the policy and 'Reconciliations' section on pages 6 to 8 of the Manta
Bidco Abridged Results.
4. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA").
5. Earnings refers to earnings attributable to equity holders.
6. Net incurred debt reflects bank borrowings, net of cash and cash equivalents, and excludes IFRS 16 lease liabilities.
7. Cash conversion, calculated as cash generated from operations as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA, is used by
management to measure cash generation by the Group.
RESULTS COMMENTARY
The Group delivered good results for the year ended 31 March 2025 against a backdrop of a persistently challenging
operating environment, particularly in Switzerland where simultaneous pressure on prices and operating costs is impacting
the performance of healthcare service providers. The board and management team is responding to these challenges through
a comprehensive plan aimed at reducing costs, improving efficiencies and adapting the business to a path of sustainability
and growth.
The Group's performance for the year ended 31 March 2025 was driven by strong volume growth across all divisions.
Group revenue was up 5% at $4 818m (FY24: $4 592m) and up 4% in constant currency terms. Inpatient admissions and
day cases grew by 1.5% and 3.2%, respectively.
Adjusted EBITDA was up 9% at $737m (FY24: $673m) and up 9% in constant currency terms. The Group's adjusted
EBITDA margin was 15.3% (FY24: 14.7%), reflecting good revenue growth and cost efficiency, partially offset by higher
consumable and supply costs mainly because of ongoing mix changes.
Included in Operating profit and Earnings are impairment charges of $279m (FY24: $24m) (before tax) relating to
properties, equipment and vehicles, and intangible assets in Switzerland. These impairment charges reflect the ongoing
changes in the market and regulatory environment in Switzerland that affected key inputs to the estimates of future free
cash flows and earnings. The impairment charges are non-cash and excluded from the adjusted earnings metrics.
