UAE’s private healthcare provider Burjeel Holdings PLC, listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX), reported a 10.4 percent increase in revenue, reaching AED2.4 billion ($653.4 million) for the first half (H1) of the current year ending June 30, 2024.

The group’s statement highlighted a rise in both outpatient and inpatient revenue, with an increase of AED137 million ($37.3 million) and AED82 million ($22.3 million), respectively.

Despite higher direct costs from continued investment in oncology to boost future revenue growth driven by increasing patient demand, the group’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), excluding one-off items, grew by 2.2 percent to AED477 million ($129.86 million).

The group’s net profit, excluding one-off items and taxes, increased by 5.9 percent to AED238 million ($64.8 million), driven by revenue growth and lower finance and amortization costs.
