MD Medical Group Investments Plc (“MD Medical Group”, “MDMG” or the “Company” – LSE: MDMG), a leading Russian private healthcare provider, today announces its operating results for the second quarter of 2018.

Key operational highlights for Q2 2018:

  • Total deliveries increased 12% year-on-year (y-o-y) to 1,919.
  • Total IVF cycles decreased 4% y-o-y to 4,535.
  • Total in-patient treatments increased 15% y-o-y to 17,743.
  • Total out-patient treatments increased 6% y-o-y to 395,340.

Mark Kurtser, CEO of MD Medical Group, said:

“We have continued to implement our strategy aimed at expanding our regional footprint and diversifying our services.
 
“Largely thanks to the contribution of our regional hospitals, in the second quarter of this year we boosted the number of deliveries by 12% year-on-year, which is especially significant given the declining trend in the overall number of deliveries across the country. This growth demonstrates the efficiency of our regional development strategy. Today, we already operate in more Russian regions than any other private medical provider. Despite growing competition as IVF becomes more accessible, we have also maintained our leadership in this sector in Russia.
 
“In-patient and out-patient visits in the second quarter grew 15% and 6% year-on-year, respectively, also mainly due to the development of our regional hospitals and clinics. Our focus on expanding the range of medical services we offer has already started to pay off – the strongest growth was achieved in the Other Medical Services line, in particular in surgery. We benefit from our high-tech infrastructure, highly professional doctors and track record on the market.
 
“In Q2 2018, we continued to open new clinics and modernise existing ones. We also launched the construction of the second stage of our Lapino hospital and continued the construction of our new hospital in Tyumen in line with the schedule.
 
“We aim to continue launching new projects and offering new products to expand our patient base and meet their needs for high-quality medical care across Russia.”
