Investment Rationale
Fortis Healthcare’s (FHL) Q4FY22 performance was below estimates with Omicron wave impacting hospitalisation in the country. Revenues grew 10.0% YoY to Rs13.8bn (I-Sec: Rs14.8bn) with hospitals and SRL (diagnostics) growing 6.0% and 37.7% YoY respectively. EBITDA margin stood at 16.1% (down 350bps QoQ) vs estimate of 19.0%. It expects FHL to continue its growth trajectory in the ensuing quarters driven by an increasingly normalising environment. Management has taken steps to reduce personnel and SG&A costs, benefits of which have been visible in the past few quarters. It remains positive on growth recovery, cost optimisation efforts and potential operating leverage. Recent correction in the stock price (~17% in last 6 months) makes current valuations reasonable. It maintains BUY with a revised target price of Rs293/share (earlier: Rs299/share).
