2020 Annual General Meeting trading update
Demonstrating operational resilience
Ahead of its Annual General Meeting today, Mediclinic, the
diversified international private healthcare services group,
provides the following trading update for June 2020.
At the FY20 results, Mediclinic reported on the sequential
improvement between April and May 2020 following the impact of
lockdown and other measures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In June 2020, the Group experienced a continued improvement in
operational performance, demonstrating operational resilience
during the pandemic and its aftermath.
As lockdown measures are relaxed, the gradual re-introduction of
elective procedures and outpatient activities leads to improved
operating performance. Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates
have passed the initial peak of the pandemic. In June 2020, the
operating performances at Hirslanden and Mediclinic Middle East,
which represents more than two thirds of Group revenue, were ahead
of the prior year. Southern Africa is yet to reach the initial
peak. Consequently, Mediclinic Southern Africa's revenue continued
to be impacted by the crisis and in June 2020 was down
approximately 12% on the prior year.
The severity, duration and full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
and its economic aftermath on all businesses, including Mediclinic,
continues to be uncertain. There remains a risk to elective
procedures and outpatient activity from a continuation or
reintroduction of lockdown and other measures in response to the
pandemic; the availability of staff; and a disruption in the supply
chain. Mediclinic is focused on fulfilling its vital role as a
leading provider of essential healthcare services during this
crisis. To this end, the Group remains agile in its approach,
optimising its response to overcome challenges and create
opportunities while seeking to maintain its strong financial
position and liquidity.
Mediclinic currently expects to issue its 2021 half-year trading
update on 15 October 2020.
