MD Medical Group Reports Operational Results for Q1 2018
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 first quarter of 2018.
Mark Kurtser, CEO of MD Medical Group, said:
“In the first quarter of 2018, we continued actively investing in the future development of the Group by expanding our business across Russia. In March, in line with our initial plans, we opened a new multi-disciplinary hospital in Samara, which has demonstrated solid operational performance already in the first days of its operations. We also further developed our network of clinics. In particular, we opened new clinics in Nizhny Novgorod and Vladimir, and we significantly expanded the floor space and range of services at our “Mother&Child Yugo-Zapad” clinic in Moscow.“In Q1 2018, we demonstrated our ability to adapt to evolving market conditions. The results in our traditional service lines remained mainly unchanged year-on-year. At the same time, we were prepared for the cyclical nature of birth dynamics as we continued to focus our efforts on developing our Other medical services offering. These efforts translated into positive results – this service line was the key driver for the growth in in-patient and out-patient visits in the first quarter by 15% and 7%, respectively.“We are committed to continuing to develop our multi-disciplinary offer, building on our traditional specialisation in healthcare services for women and children, while adding new promising medical services that are increasingly contributing to the Group’s growth in operational and financial performance.”
