Offenburg, 04 November 2024: In the first nine months of 2024, MEDICLIN Aktiengesellschaft (MEDICLIN) generated consolidated sales of EUR 558.2 million.

A positive business performance in the third quarter and a stable capacity utilisation rate of 86.0% (9M 2023: 84.4%) allow the Executive Board to confirm the annual forecast. For the current financial year, a decline in sales at the upper end of the forecast of -2.0% to 0.0% is expected. The consolidated operating result is now also expected to be at the upper end of the range of EUR 33.0 million to EUR 39.0 million last specified in the first half of the year. Sales and earnings performance of the segments In the post-acute segment, sales increased by 7.2% to EUR 361.2 million (9M 2023: EUR 337.0 million).

Personnel expenses increased by EUR 8.1 million or 4.5% to EUR 187.4 million compared to the first half of the previous year. The personnel expenses ratio fell to 51.9% (9M 2023: 53.2%). The acute segment reported a decline in segment sales of EUR 16.3 million or 8.5%. The segment operating result totalled EUR -3.8 million after EUR -5.4 million in the third quarter of 2023. The cost of materials fell by 12.8% to EUR 50.0 million (9M 2023: EUR 57.3 million). The cost of materials ratio fell slightly to 28.5 % (9M 2023: 29.9%).

Outlook - positive business performance in the third quarter of 2024 "As in previous years, the third quarter is once again the strongest of the current year. Group sales increased by EUR 7.9 million year-on-year to EUR 190.2 million. Profitability for the quarter was also positive with an EBIT margin of 11.8%. We are in a good financial position and confirm the annual forecasts for sales and consolidated operating profit at the upper end in each case due to the positive business develop-ment", reports Tino Fritz, CFO of MEDICLIN. Hospital reform expected at the turn of the year "The hospital reform expected at the turn of the year has not taken rehabilitation into account. We are convinced that the elimination of hospital beds in the acute sector will not lead to fewer, but to more and earlier rehabilitation services. With MEDICLIN HOME, DIRECT and CAMPUS, we set out early on to face up to the developments in the healthcare market and take advantage of the opportunities offered by the outpati-ent and digitalisation of rehabilitation," says Dr Joachim Ramming, CEO of MEDICLIN. Thomas Piefke, COO of MEDICLIN, adds: "On 11 October, we opened outpatient orthopaedic rehabilitation at the Staufenburg Klinik in Durbach - as part of the MEDICLIN DIRECT range of services. With the expansion of this service, we are supplementing the existing services for rehabilitation in the areas of cancer, diabetes and obesity and are thus responding to the increasing demand for outpatient orthopaedic therapies. We are thus successfully driving forward outpatientisation at MEDICLIN and consistently implementing our strategy."
