India-based Apollo Hospitals has announced plans to sell a 5%-6% stake in Apollo HealthCo, its healthcare platform, and raise approximately $200m in the current fiscal year, reported moneycontrol.com.
According to The Economic Times report, a top executive revealed that the hospital chain aims to sell the stake at an expected enterprise value of $2.5bn-$3bn.
In FY23, Apollo Hospitals reported revenues of Rs67.05bn ($814.58m) and incurred a loss of Rs3.04bn ($36.93m).
The offline pharmacy distribution business experienced a 31% year-on-year growth with Rs5.34bn ($64.88m) in earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA), and the digital health business faced quarterly losses averaging around Rs1.8bn ($21.87m).
Apollo Hospitals expects an operational improvement in the financial year 2024, primarily driven by the goal of Apollo 24/7, the company’s omnichannel business, to reach EBITDA break-even by the fourth quarter.
During the quarter, the gross market value (GMV) of Apollo 24/7 reached Rs16.3bn ($198.03m), surpassing expectations of Rs15bn ($182.23m).
