Third Age Health confirms acquisition of general practice, EastMed Doctors in Auckland
Third Age Health Services Limited (NZX: TAH) is pleased to confirm the acquisition of a majority share of
EastMed Doctors (“EastMed”), a medium sized family general practice in Saint Heliers Bay Road, East
Auckland. TAH had announced on 4 August 2022 that it had entered into a conditional contract to purchase a
majority interest which had been subject to due diligence and Board approval. These conditions have been
met.
EastMed is an established and professional general practice with an experienced and dedicated clinical and
administrative team who have been providing quality primary healthcare for approximately 10,000 enrolled
patients for the past twenty years.
The modern and well-equipped clinic is ideally located close to eight aged residential care facilities, including
Ryman’s Grace Joel Retirement Village, for whom Third Age Health already provides general practice services
for some residents. With a growing aged population in the East Auckland area Third Age Health is encouraged
by the opportunities that exist to further build upon its work to develop a model of care which provides
consistent quality primary healthcare that meets the unique health needs of older people who live in aged
care and those choosing to ‘age in place’.
As a new partner in the practice, Third Age Health is looking to build upon the existing high performing team
and the reputation the practice has for providing quality primary care for its patients and community.
The transaction is expected to be completed effective 1 October 2022 with two GP partners remaining as part
owners in the practices with a 16.67% share each.
The purchase price for EastMed Doctors majority share by Third Age Health is confirmed at $1.9 million and
will be fully funded through Third Age Health’s ANZ loan facility.
The practice is expected to contribute approximately $3 million to group annual revenues, is immediately
accretive to earnings, and once integrated will contribute annualised earnings per share in the range of 2.5
cents to 3.5 cents in FY24.
