Activity and revenue:
Ramsay Santé Group reported a consolidated revenue of €1,207m for the quarter ending 30 September 2025, up 2.6% on a reported basis. Adjusted for changes in the consolidation scope and at constant currency exchange rates, revenue for the period was up with a 1.9% organic sales growth.
France revenue has grown by 1.4% (1.9% on a like-for-like basis) on the back of increased volumes, despite one less business day this quarter compared to last year, and including the +0.5% indexation of MSO tariffs since March 2025. France hospital admissions in our hospitals rose vs. the same quarter last year, mainly through a +2.0% increase in MSO (medicine, surgery and obstetrics) patient stays driven by a +3.5% increase in ambulatory care stays.
Nordic countries revenue grew by +2.6% on a like-for-like and constant exchange rate bases, with a reported revenue growth of +5.4% benefitting from 9m€ (or 2.6%) favourable foreign exchange rate fluctuations (appreciation of SEK vs EUR on average vs the same quarter last year). Solid organic growth in Sweden underpinned by primary care activity benefitting from a long-term increasing trend of listed patients as well as growing volumes in St Göran with a reducing length of stay. Softer activity in Denmark primary care units whilst the Danish hospitals revenue stabilised following the merger and consolidation of our facilities in Copenhagen.
EBITDA:
EBITDA increased 7m€ or 6.5% to 112m€ for the quarter ending 30 September 2025 vs. the prior corresponding period. The Group's EBITDA growth has been negatively impacted by the end of the French government's revenue guarantee from 1 January 2025, representing a 7m€ shortfall vs. the same quarter last year. Funding otherwise received through French tariff increases and various public payors in the Nordics still only partially covered inflation from medical staff salary and wages as well as overall procurement and outsourced services price increases, putting pressure on operating margins. Productivity efforts and cost control across all geographies already initiated last year have been reinforced and allowed the Group operations to offset cost inflation, growing EBITDA by 7m€ and improving EBITDA margin by 0.3 pts. The corresponding actions range from increasing staffing productivity, optimising medical purchases and consumption, to saving on administrative costs and carefully adjusting hiring structure (eg. agency staff), while also pursuing revenue development initiatives such as in day medicine and imaging activities.
Reported EBITDA of 112m€ for the quarter ending 30 September 2025 in accordance with IFRS16 excludes contracted lease expenses for 69m€ (vs. 66m€ last year) which are instead recorded as amortisation of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease debt. The increase in the lease accounting impact vs. prior year primarily came from the effect of rents indexation and the impact of a stronger SEK vs the EUR this quarter for c. 0,6m€.
Cash flow & financing:
Net cash flow from operating activities of -44m€ in this quarter reflects the lower seasonality of our medical, surgical and obstetrical activities over the summer months, and its 13m€ decrease versus -31m€ in the prior corresponding period primarily arises from the negative working capital variation linked to the repayment of French government cash advances over the summer. These were extended in April and May both in 2024 and 2025 to compensate the billing hold caused by the late publication of French DRG tariffs in each year. However, their repayment over the July to September period was higher in this years’ quarter, driving the decrease in working capital variation vs. last year’s comparable quarter.
Reported net financial debt as of 30 September 2025 amounted to 3,819m€, of which 1,867m€ on a restated basis (i.e. restated from the IFRS16 impact on operating or non-financial rents). Restated net leverage amounts to 5.2x as of September 2025, vs. 5.3x as of September 2024. Focus remains on cash flow generation through operational efficiency and working capital improvement.
Pascal Roché, CEO of Ramsay Santé says:
“At Ramsay Santé, our purpose - Improving health through constant innovation - is at the heart of everything we do, and we continue implementing the Company’s 'Yes We Care 2025' strategy of providing integrated care services to patients across all populations throughout the entire care pathways to deliver on our mission. Despite funding pressures headwinds from government payors, disciplined cost management and focus on productivity have lifted operating profitability in the first quarter of this new financial year. We have achieved an EBITDA growth of 6,5% and an EBITDA margin improvement of 0,3 pts with an organic revenue growth of 1,9 %. We will continue to transform Ramsay Santé as a partner of choice for patients, doctors, staff and other stakeholders whilst ensuring its sustainable and profitable growth.”
