MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT - TRADING UPDATE AND RELEASE OF GUIDANCE
Radius Expects 40% to 50% Uplift in First Half Year EBITDA
Radius Care (NZX: RAD) today announced that due to strong FY24 year to date trading, the
company’s first half Pre-NZ IFRS16 EBITDA* is likely to be in the range $9.8m to $10.5m. This
represents a record result with a 40% to 50% uplift compared to the previous record of $7.0m
underlying Pre-NZ IFRS16 EBITDA, achieved in the first half of FY23.
Continued strong occupancy and successful execution of the business improvement program
have materially lifted EBITDA. Significant focus on sales, realised gains from unit resales and the
establishment of Radius Care’s staffing bureau, RConnect, have also accelerated the company’s
performance.
Chief Executive Officer Andrew Peskett said: “We successfully recruited to fill vacant roles. As a
result, all our sites are fully staffed with qualified nurses and health care assistants, enabling us
to provide the level of care our residents and their families expect. This has driven continued
strong occupancy levels and an improved mix of hospital level residents. The dedicated care
delivered by our exceptional people and the previously-signalled streamlined operations have
also been crucial in delivering improved results.”
The company continues to make progress on selected asset divestments with the intention of
reducing debt.
*EBITDA means earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation, recorded on a pre-NZ IFRS16 basis.
EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.
