Dr. Kassem Alom, CEO, Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc said:

 

"I am pleased to announce that our 2014 first half results have shown further strong profitable growth. Trading in the second half of the year has begun in line with management expectations. We remain on track to deliver strong growth through our physician hiring programme and the opening of three medical centres. We remained focused on M&A activity to both consolidate our home market and enter into new ones. We look forward to the future with confidence."

 

 

Outlook

 

Trading in the second half of the year is in line with our expectations, and we are on track to deliver strong growth and achieve our objectives for 2014. We continue to pay special attention to physician recruitment and licensing, and to focus on potential inorganic opportunities to both consolidate our core market and enter new ones.

 

We operate in one of the fastest growing sectors in the Gulf region due to a rapidly ageing demographic, an increasing incidence of lifestyle-related medical conditions such as diabetes and obesity, and service gaps in the current healthcare market. Our growth strategy will continue to focus on meeting the strong demand driven by these three factors.

 

The Board continues to view the outlook with confidence.

About Al Noor

 

Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc provides primary, secondary and tertiary care in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the wider region through its portfolio of hospitals and medical centres. As of 30 June 2014, the company had 223 operational beds and 610 physicians, more than any other private competitor in Abu Dhabi. Al Noor was the first private hospital in Abu Dhabi City to obtain Joint Commission International ("JCI") accreditation, and today all of its hospitals are accredited. The company is listed in on the London Stock Exchange (ticker: ANHA.L). For more information, please go to www.alnoorhospital.com.

 

CEO's review

 

Al Noor delivered a strong performance for the first half of the year with revenues, operating profits and underlying EBITDA all seeing double digit year-on-year growth and Underlying EBITDA margins remaining steady at 23%.

 

We continue to work on hiring and retaining our physicians. Despite a slowdown in physician intake in Q2 due to slower physician hiring, we added 31 revenue-generating physicians during the first six months, which contributed to the rise in outpatient volumes. Acquired centres also contributed to volume growth. The company expects to meet the target of an additional 70-80 physicians in 2014

 

 

Inpatient volumes were flat overall, with increases at Airport Road Hospital and Al Ain Hospital offset by a reduction at Khalifa Street Hospital, due to the major refurbishment programme.

 

To deliver sustainable growth, we are working passionately on continuing to enhance the quality of our services and improving the overall patient experience at our Hospitals and Medical Centers. At Khalifa Street Hospital, we are taking up additional space in the existing building, and enhancing the interiors of the premises to improve the patient experience.

 

Construction on the new 40-bed hospital in Al Ain is on schedule and we continue to expect to commission the hospital in 2016 as planned.

 

During the first six months, three new medical centers have been opened at Bateen, and Baniyas which are in neighborhoods with a significant Emirati population, and the ICAD medical center which is in an industrial workers residential facility. Expanding our medical centre network helps increase our footprint and drive volumes to our hospitals.

 

As part of our strategy to expand into the remainder of the UAE, we have signed a lease to open a medical center in Sharjah in a commercial center. This medical center is expected to be operational in Q2 2015.

 

The company continues to make good progress on the integration of the Gulf International Cancer Center, which was acquired on February of this year. GICC is the only private cancer treatment centre in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. By acquiring GICC we have added a high-growth service to our portfolio and further differentiated ourselves from our competitors. Developing a cancer center is challenging due to rarity of expertise in the region, high Capex required, and long gestation period. GICC is well equipped, with surplus capacity and employs well-known and highly experienced physicians.

 

The new consolidated laboratory has been installed at the Khalifa Street Hospital and integration with other facilities is being worked upon.

 

We are also making good progress on the various other operational initiatives, and the Group has successfully completed the first phase of SAP by implementing finance and materials management modules. This project is expected to run for the next 21 months with a phased implementation of various modules of SAP.

 

On August 6th, 2014, the Board, as part of its succession plan, announced that Dr. Kassem Alom will be vacating the post of Chief Executive and stepping down as an Executive Director of the Company on October 1st 2014. On that date, he will be appointed Non-Executive Deputy Chairman of the Company, initially to ensure a smooth handover of responsibilities to the new Chief Executive, and then to provide support to the Company as needed. Ronald Lavater will become Chief Executive on that date. Mr. Lavater, a US citizen, joins from Johns Hopkins Medicine International (JHI), a well-respected global healthcare company, where he is currently serving as a Senior Executive for the Middle East Region. From 2009 through 2013, he was Chief Executive Officer of the JCI accredited Corniche Hospital in Abu Dhabi, the largest maternity and neo-natal hospital in the UAE.

Improved revenue was primarily driven by higher outpatient volumes, which were enabled by an increase in the number of revenue-generating physicians, opening up of new centres and through acquired centres.

 

Underlying EBITDA margin remained steady, and we expect this trend to continue.

 

The group remained debt free and also has an adequate cash balance of US$72.7m and a short term deposit of US$13.6m at the end of June 2014. In addition, we have a committed US$81.7m working capital and acquisition revolver facility available for future use.

 

At IPO, the company had indicated an intention to adopt a policy of distributing dividends in the range of 20%-30% of annual profits after tax. The Board has since reviewed the results for the first six months and determined on 11 August that an interim dividend of GBP 3.7 pence per share for 2014 to be paid on 10 October 2014 to all ordinary shareholders who were on the register of members at the close of business on 12 September 2014. This dividend has not been recognised as a liability at the balance sheet date.

 

 

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The principal risks facing the Group for the remaining six months of the financial year are expected to be the same as those reported on pages 47 and 48 of the Annual report and accounts 2013 which are recruitment, licensing, and retention of medical staff, mergers and acquisitions, competition, and reputation.

 

 

 

Going Concern

 

The directors are satisfied that the Group has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report. Accordingly the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed financial statements.

 

The Group's Financial Statements for the half year ended 30th June 2014 are available on the Group's website at www.alnoorhospital.com.

The Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("DTR") require that the accounting policies and presentation applied to the quarterly figures must be consistent with those applied in the latest published annual accounts, except where the accounting policies and presentation are to be changed in the subsequent annual accounts, in which case the new accounting policies and presentation should be followed, and the changes and the reasons for the changes should be disclosed in the Interim Report, unless the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority agrees otherwise.

Independent Review Report to Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc

 

Introduction

We have been engaged by the company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six month ended 30 June 2014 which comprises Condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position, Condensed consolidated interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, Condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity, Condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows and the related explanatory notes. We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

 

This report is made solely to the company in accordance with the terms of our engagement to assist the company in meeting the requirements of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("the DTR") of the UK's Financial Conduct Authority ("the UK FCA"). Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have reached.

 

Directors' responsibilities

The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the DTR of the UK FCA. As disclosed in note 1, the annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the EU.

 

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.

 

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the UK. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six month ended 30 June 2014 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 as adopted by the EU and the DTR of the UK FCA.

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

 

1 Status and activity

 

Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc (the "Company" or "Parent'') is a Company which was incorporated in England and Wales on 20 December 2012. The Company is a public limited liability company operating mainly in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE"). The address of the registered office of the Company is C/O Capita Company Secretarial Services, 2nd Floor, Ibex House, 42-47 Minories, London, EC3N 1DX. The registered number of the Company is 8338604. There is no ultimate controlling party.

 

The Company changed its name from Al Noor Hospitals Plc to Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc on 21 June 2013 when it also completed its Premium Listing on the London Stock Exchange.

 

The activities of the subsidiaries are the operation of medical hospitals and clinics and the sale of pharmaceuticals, medical supplies and related equipment. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the financial performance and position of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "the Group") (refer note 3(a)).

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the directors on 11 August 2014. The financial statements are unaudited but have been reviewed by KPMG LLP.

 

The condensed interim financial statements do not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.

 

2 Basis of preparation

 

The figures for the 6 months ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2013 are unaudited. The comparative figures for the financial period ended 30 June 2013 are not the Company's statutory accounts for that financial year. Those accounts have been reported on by the Company's auditors and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and (iii) did not contain a statement under Section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

 

On 14 June 2013, as part of a group re-organisation and as a necessary step to its Initial Public Offering on 21 June 2013, the Company issued 100 million shares to the shareholders of the previous parent company of the Group, Al Noor Holdings Cayman Limited ("ANHC"), in exchange for 100% of the issued shares of ANHC. This transaction has been treated as a common control transaction, i.e. there is no new business combination to be accounted for and book values have been used as the basis for the accounting.

 

The common control transaction which took place on 14 June 2013 to position the Company as the new parent of the group is treated, for accounting purposes, as if the Company had always been the parent company.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

 

2 Basis of preparation (continued)

 

(a) Statement of compliance

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as endorsed by the European Union. They do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements published as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013.

 

(b) Going Concern

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. At 30 June 2014, the Group had net assets amounting to USD 209,187 thousand. The Group is profitable and cash generative and the Directors have considered the Group's cash forecasts for a period of 12 months from the signing of the balance sheet. In addition, the Group has access to an undrawn committed borrowing facility of up to USD 81.7 million. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least 12 months from the date of approval of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial information.

 

(c) Basis of measurement

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except where adopted IFRS mandates that fair value accounting is required.

 

(d) Functional and presentation currency

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements and financial information are presented in United States Dollar (USD), rounded to the nearest thousand. The functional currency of the majority of the Group's entities is the United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED) and is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. The United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED) is currently pegged against the United States Dollar (USD) at a rate of 3.67 per US Dollar. 

 

(e) Use of estimates and judgements

There are no material changes in management judgments, estimates and assumptions during the six month period ended 30 June 2014 from the annual financial statements published for the year ended 31 December 2013.

 

 

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

 

3 Significant accounting policies

 

The accounting policies applied by the Group in this condensed consolidated interim financial report are the same as those applied by the Group in its published consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2013 which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union, except for the adoption of the following new standards which were effective for the first time for the Group from 1 January 2014:

 

· IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

· IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements

· IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities

 

None of these new standards had an impact on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations that are not yet effective for the period ended 30 June 2014 have not been applied in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. None of these is expected to have a significant effect on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Group, except for IFRS 9 "Financial instruments" which could change the classification and measurement of the financial assets. The full extent of the impact has not yet been determined.

 

4 Property and equipment

 

During the six month period ended 30 June 2014, the Group acquired property and equipment with a cost of USD 10,600 thousand (six month period ended 30 June 2013: USD 4,403 thousand). The Group's acquisition of GICC (refer note 25(b)) resulted in further additions of USD 12,981 thousand (six month ended 30 June 2013: USD 325 thousand).

Goodwill

a. In February 2013, the Group acquired a clinic, Al Noor Hospital Family Care Center - Al Mamoura LLC, formerly known as Solutions Medical Center LLC located in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. There are no material separately identifiable tangible and intangible assets and therefore the majority of the purchase consideration is for goodwill (USD 636 thousand), representing the location and future earning potential of the clinic.

 

 

 

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

 

5 Intangible assets and goodwill (continued)

 

b. On 31 October 2013, the Group acquired 75% of the shares and voting interests in Al Madar Group LLC and Manchester Clinic LLC. There are no material separate tangible and intangible assets and therefore the majority of the purchase consideration is for goodwill (USD 10,869 thousand), representing the location and future earning potential of the clinic.

 

c. On 10 February 2014, the Group acquired a clinic, Emirates American Company for Medical Services LLC (also known as Gulf International Cancer Center /GICC) (refer note 25). Provisional goodwill on this acquisition is USD 9,794 thousand.

 

The majority of the Group's goodwill balance is generated from the acquisition of Al Madar Group LLC, Manchester Clinic LLC and GICC. From the acquisition date to first half year end, the entities performed as expected and no indications of impairment of the goodwill have been identified at 30 June 2014.

15 Equity-settled share-based payment arrangements

 

On 26 June 2013, the Group established an equity-settled share-based payment arrangement under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) that entitles selected key management personnel to be awarded with shares of the Company. No consideration was paid for granting of the awards, which are structured as conditional awards as explained below.

 

The awards will vest in two equal tranches: one tranche is subject to the satisfaction of a performance conditions set by Remuneration Committee of the Group, measured over a performance period of three financial years ending 31 December 2015; the second tranche will vest on 31 December 2016 provided the participant remains employed by the Group on that date.

 

The fair value of the above arrangement has been measured based on the quoted share price of the Group available on the London Stock Exchange at grant date of the above awards. As at 30 June 2014, no shares have been forfeited and it is assumed that all the shareholders under the above arrangement will satisfy all the performance conditions set by Remuneration Committee of the Group.

 

Furthermore, the Board approved a share award to senior management in relation to the IPO. No consideration was paid for granting of the awards, which are structured as non-conditional awards and granted as at the date of the IPO. The fair value of this arrangement has been measured based on the quoted share price of the Group available on the London Stock Exchange at grant date of the awards.

19 Taxation

 

The Group operates solely in the United Arab Emirates and Sultanate of Oman. There is no corporate or other tax in the United Arab Emirates ("UAE") and therefore the Group has no tax liability arising in the UAE.

 

The Group's parent company is registered in the UK and recorded a loss for the half year ended30 June 2014. No deferred tax asset has been accounted for as recovery of this loss against future UK tax profit is uncertain. 

 

20 Contingent liabilities

 

The Group defends various legal claims raised against it in the normal course of business. Where it considers that it is probable that it will settle a claim, management estimate the likely amount of settlement and provide accordingly. Claims that are considered remote or only possible represent contingent liabilities of the Group. If the Group's defense against these contingent liabilities is not successful, the Group may ultimately become liable for settlement. The Group's Medical Malpractice Insurance Policy covers all settlements made by the Group subject to insurance deductibles and the overall coverage provided by the policy. The Board of Directors and Management do not expect actions arising from the claims currently classified as contingent liabilities to have a material effect on the Group's future financial position.
