Raffles Med unveils robust Q2 results as profits surge to $15.6m

Healthcare revenue jumps amid higher patient loads.

It has been a healthy second quarter for Raffles Medical Group, as the company reported an 8.5% year on year increase in its Q2 profits today.

RMG’s profits jumped to S$15.6m, as its revenue grew 6.6% growth in revenue to S$92.6m. This happened on the back of clinic expansions and higher patient loads.

Revenue growth was driven by a 14.7% revenue jump for its Healthcare division, while its Hospital Services division grew at a slower pace of 4.9%.

According to RMG, “Strong cash flows were generated from the Group’s business operations, that contributed to the Group’s sturdy cash position of S$130.6 million as at 30 June 2014 after accounting for the Group’s final dividend distribution for the financial year ended 31 December 2013 of S$4.0 million and investment of S$190.4 million in capital expenditure as well as land purchases for Raffles Hospital Extension and Holland Village projects in the first half of 2014.”

Here’s more from RMG:

The Group achieved revenue growth of 6.6% from S$86.8 million in Q2 2013 to S$92.6 million in Q2 2014. Revenue from Healthcare and Hospital Services segment grew by 14.7% and 4.9% respectively.

Revenue from investment holding was comparatively lower in Q2 2014. This was due to the Q2 2013 disposal of a subsidiary which held the property at 30 Bideford Road.

The Group’s Q2 2014 revenue increase was due to higher patient load as the RafflesMedical clinic network continues to expand. Other contributory factors include the securing of new corporate contracts both locally and overseas and the addition of more Specialist Consultants to the Group.

The Group’s healthcare insurance services also generated higher sales in the second quarter. The Group’s performance improved in this quarter. The Group’s operating profits increased by 6.3% from S$17.6 million in Q2 2013 to S$18.7 million in Q2 2014 and its net profit after tax grew 8.1% from S$14.5 million in Q2 2013 to S$15.7 million in Q2 2014.

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
