Price Performance
Growth Potential
- RHC has a diversified portfolio with significant scale (difficult to replicate) and leading positions in Australia and UK.
- Largest private hospital operator in Australia, with attractive industry fundamentals: aging and growing population, proliferation of chronic disease, and increasing innovation, treatment, and technologies to drive demand to private hospitals over the long-term.
- Successful execution of Ramsay Australia 2030 could materially lift returns. Additionally, the potential sale of Ramsay Sante could also be a positive for the share price.
- Supportive government policy (tax incentive to get private health insurance).
- Ongoing brownfield program driving earnings and offshore earnings growth (e.g. UK & turnaround in Elysium).
- Potential M&A – the threat of Private Equity taking RHC private and unlocking the underlying value in the property portfolio.
Key Risks
- Competitive risk (new hospitals, new beds), from listed and unlisted hospital operators.
- Brownfield projects fail to deliver the earnings uplift.
- Cost pressures (negotiating price increases with private health insurance companies) plus inflationary pressures lead to erosion of margins.
- Change to government policy on private health insurance.
- Execution risk (able to get the uplift in earnings from brownfield projects).
