MEDICLIN presents preliminary figures for the 2023 financial year

MEDICLIN achieved group sales of EUR 730.1 million in the 2023 financial year (previous year: EUR 704.7 million). At EUR 12.7 million, the group operating result was EUR 6.8 million below the previous year's figure (2022: EUR 19.5 million) due to a one-off effect. The one-off effect relates to the impairment of goodwill for three facilities in the acute segment, which had a negative impact of EUR 33.1 million on earnings.
 

With a growth rate of 3.6%, group sales were within the forecast published in the 2022 annual report. The group operating result of EUR 12.7 million is within the new forecast of EUR 10.0 to 15.0 million published in January 2024, which was updated due to the one-off effect.     
     

Tino Fritz, CFO of MEDICLIN, comments: "Despite all the challenges, 2023 was an operationally successful financial year. We achieved an occupancy rate of at least 80% in all quarters. Capacity utilisation, the decisive factor for our factor for our economic success, is gradually normalising to the levels seen before the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic." and adds: "This means that we are full of confidence for the business outlook for 2024."
