RAMSAY SANTE :Refinancing of Senior Debt Facilities

  • 89

PRESS RELEASE

Paris, 16 July 2024

Refinancing of Senior Debt Facilities

  • Ramsay Santé has started today the Amend & Extend process for the refinancing of its €1,650m Senior Facilities, including €100m RCF and €100m Capex lines, to proactively extend its upcoming 2026-2027 debt maturities.
  • The closing of this Amend & Extend process is subject to market conditions.
  • Such refinancing would enable Ramsay Santé to further support the implementation of its key initiatives as part of its “Yes We Care” strategy plan.
  • In the context of this refinancing project, the purpose of this release is to provide existing and potential lenders with unaudited financial statements for the 9 month-period ending 31st March 2024 as well as key business trends and unaudited financial information as of end of May 2024.

**********

  • Over the 9-month period ending 31st March 2024, revenues increased by +6,9% up to €3,7bn, mainly supported by a dynamic organic growth. EBITDA decreased by -1,2% to €445m despite higher activity, mainly impacted by lower subsidies, and increased gap between tariff increases and inflation of our cost base.
  • Over the last twelve-month (LTM) period ending May 31st 2024, activity growth in our countries has been solid. Together with price indexation and ongoing efficiency measures in a challenging inflationary environment, this translates into revenue growth of +7,0% and resilient EBITDA1 growth of +€8m (+1,3%) compared to prior year LTM period ending 31st May 2023. This also reflects an EBITDA growth of +€33m vs. LTM period ending 31st December 2023, and +€11m               vs. LTM period ending 31st March 2024.
  • Pre-IFRS16 LTM Net leverage ratio stands at 5.0x as of end of March 2024, and 4.9x as of end of May 2024, down from 5.4x as of end of December 2023.
  • Ramsay Santé has maintained its actions enhancing its role as a preferred coordinator of integrated care pathways and a key private provider of hospital and primary care services in support of the French and Nordics public healthcare sectors.   It has resulted in a 4% increase in patient admissions in our acute care facilities over the July 2023 - May 2024 period, compared to prior year corresponding period.
  • In France, regarding the 2024 MSO tariff campaign and after several iterations, the group will benefit, on top of the 0.3% tariff increase starting in March 2024, from the removal of the CICE cancellation coefficient, amounting to an additional 2.2% equivalent of tariff increase starting from 1st July 2024, and of the financing of specific night and weekend shifts measures.
  • The Ramsay Santé group has continued in the past months the deployment of its “Yes We Care” strategic plan to offer integrated, quality, affordable and proximity care to all patients, by increasing its portfolio of imaging equipment, expanding its network of primary care centers and rolling-out new digital solutions. One of the achievements for this year was the acquisition on June 14th 2024 of the Cosem primary care centres in Paris and other major cities in France, handling more than 1 million patient consultations per annum in general and specialised medicine, dental care, imaging and pathology.

Pascal Roché, Chief Executive Officer of Ramsay Santé, says:

« The refinancing of our senior debt facility would allow Ramsay Santé to further secure its development towards our strategic objective as a trusted partner of choice to our patients, doctors, employees and payors as the preferred provider and coordinator of care along the patient pathways. Ramsay Santé and all its employees and medical community continue to serve the healthcare sector and its patients in both France and the 3 Nordics countries despite the scarcity of resources and the inflation burden. »

The Board of Directors approved this release of unaudited financial statements for the 9-month period ending 31st March 2024 (that are attached to this press release) as well as key business trends and unaudited financial information as of end of May 2024 at its meeting held on 15 July 2024.
