FY2019 EARNINGS RELEASE

Cairo, Egypt | 12 March 2020

Commenting on Cleopatra Hospitals Group’s performance for FY2019, Chief Executive Officer Ahmed Ezzeldin said:
“With 2019 having come to a close, I am delighted to report that Cleopatra Hospitals Group delivered, once again, excellent
operational and financial results for the year, as we broadened our geographic reach and service offering while continuing to drive
enhancements in the quality of care the Group delivers to its growing pool of patients. 2019 was a year of expansion, internal
restructuring and integration for the Group. In the last twelve months, we added four new facilities to our network acquiring
Queens and El Katib Hospitals and rolling out our East and West Cairo Polyclinics. In parallel, we also worked to increase capacity
at our existing hospitals through a Group-wide renovation plan and a series of expansions at Al Shorouk and Nile Badrawi Hospitals.

On the operational front we worked to enhance our claims collection process instituting a new revenue cycle management
framework, introduced several new business entities to better oversee various aspects of our day-to-day operations, and continued
to drive digitalization across the Group’s network of facilities. During the past year, we continued to place great emphasis on the
professional development and careering advancement of our staff as we look to continue attracting and retaining the best
professionals the industry has to offer.

We enter 2020 with renewed confidence that the solid fundamentals that underpin the Egyptian economy and the foundations we
laid over the course of the past twelve months, have us placed in an ideal position to continue generating sustainable value for all
stakeholders. In the coming year we expect to begin seeing strong contributions to our top- and bottom-line coming from the new
assets added to our network during 2019. In parallel, we will continue to pursue strategic growth opportunities in line with our
six-pillar expansion strategy. I am particularly excited for the roll out of the first phase of our Bani Suef hospital, the Group’s first
facility outside Greater Cairo, which we expect to complete during the last quarter of 2020.

Going into 2020 we expect to see strong revenue and net income growth as our efforts to enhance the quality of the Group’s claim
collection and revenue cycle management continue to bear the desire results. At this time, with the end of 1Q2020 fast approaching,
we have good visibility on financial and operational results for the period and expect top-line growth ahead of last year’s first quarter
figure with expanding margins maintaining the momentum gained in the fourth quarter of the year just ended. With this trend
expected to continue throughout the year, and with the impact of higher LTIP expenses and impairments behind us, we expect to
return to see the full reflection of the Group’s EBITDA and earnings growth on our bottom-line profitability in 2020.

With regards to the recent Coronavirus outbreak, I would like to take this opportunity to reassure you that we are closely monitoring
the situation and keeping a close eye across our operations. At this time, the number of registered cases in Egypt remains limited
and fully under the control of the relevant authorities, with businesses continuing to operate normally. CHG’s management is
confident that the Egyptian government and the Group are well-equipped to handle developments as the situation evolves.
We are regularly updating our staff on the progression of the outbreak and providing them with necessary training and precautions
to ensure of the safety of our workforce and our patients and to safeguard our operations. CHG will provide all stakeholders with
any and all updates through official corporate channels.”

Performance Drivers and Discussion

• Top-line growth in both periods came on the back of continued favourable pricing, an improved case mix across the Group’s
hospitals, and growing patient volumes.
• Cases served for the year increased 10% y-o-y to 1.02 million. In 4Q2019, cases served came in at 291 thousand, up 15% y-o-y.
• The Group’s case volume growth came despite the ongoing renovations works, which in the final quarter of the year focused
on electromechanical upgrades across all the Group’s hospitals, and the expansion works of Al Shorouk and Nile Badrawi
Hospitals.
• On the back of the new facility additions, the Group incurred in higher expenses related to integration or ramp-up costs. Despite
this, CHG delivered solid growth with stable margins at the gross profit and EBITDA levels for the year and quarter,
demonstrating a continued ability to drive efficiency enhancements at an organic level.
• CHG’s operational strategy continues to be focused on fostering efficiencies across the Group’s hospitals, streamlining
internal processes, and investing in strategic, value-generating technologies.
• In FY2019, impairments stood at EGP 58.6 million as the Group worked to clean up its balance sheet from claims largely
related to 2016, 2017, and to a lesser extent 2018. In 4Q2019, impairments stood at EGP 9.7 million.
• LTIP non-cash expenses for the year came in at EGP 83.8 million. The company is currently studying a new share option plan
to substitute the current Long-Term Incentive Plan once it reaches maturity in June 2020. The new plan will be less volatile and
continue to offer strong incentives for the Group’s executive management team and staff.

El Katib
The Group officially took over operations at El Katib Hospital on November 6th having
completed the business transfer agreement (BTA) with the hospital’s operating company.
The 89-bed facility located in the Dokki neighborhood of Greater Cairo, recorded a very
strong start to operations and immediately began contributing to the Group’s consolidated
FY2018 FY2019 results in the fourth quarter of the year. Having recently undergone a series of significant
upgrades to its facilities and equipment, the hospital is expected to continue contributing
strongly in the coming year. Heading into 2020, the Group aims to build on the existing
# of ER Visits infrastructure, adding further state-of-the-art equipment, as it seeks to develop the
(Rev/visit) hospital’s capabilities and transform it into the Group’s urology centre of excellence.
Management is confident that the integration of El Katib into the wider Group’s operating
EGP 256 EGP 289 framework will conclude smoothly and in a short timeframe with the new management
team working to execute the facility’s 100-day integration plan.

Queens Hospital
Queens Hospital continued to operate at reduced capacity as the Group works to complete
the facility’s upgrade works. Management expects the hospital to begin operating at full
capacity by the end of the first six months of 2020 once the renovation plan is completed.
Since having taken over operations in the first quarter of 2019, the Group has worked to
FY2018 FY2019 enhance the hospital’s OBGYN services and expand its service offering to include
orthopaedics and general surgery, both of which are specialties characterised by high
patient demand. As part of the renovation plan, CHG will be adding a new ICU unit and a
diagnostics centre, expand the hospital’s ER facilities, upgrade of its operating theatres,
and revamp Queens Hospital’s inpatient ward.

(Rev/catheterization) CHG East Cairo Polyclinic continued to outperform the Group’s expectations, averaging
close to 300 visit per day, in line with volumes recorded by a typical hospital’s outpatient

The launch of the East and West Cairo Polyclinics is part of the Group’s feeder network
strategy which aims to grow CHG’s geographic reach across Greater Cairo while driving
up volumes at the Group’s main hospitals through the referral of patients. Polyclinics are
relatively underdeveloped in Egypt, but they represent a low-CAPEX expansion avenue.

group’s outpatient visits volumes)
which will see between 70 and 90 beds come online. The Beni Suef hospital is CHG’s first
medical facility outside Greater Cairo and is a move to expand the Group’s reach to more
secluded regions of the country. The facility will also house a teaching section dedicated
to Nahda University’s faculty of medicine. The total estimated cost for the refurbishment
and development of the facility is estimated at EGP 360 million.

Operational Review

During the last twelve months, CHG’s management worked to improve the Group’s claim
collection process, roll out a Group-wide HIS/Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system,
and introduced multiple new internal functions to improve on various aspects of the
Group’s day-to-day operations.

Internal Management Systems Restructuring

Throughout 2019, CHG focused heavily on restructuring its internal management
framework to promptly integrate the newly acquired assets within its operating framework,
leverage existing synergies, and expand its service offering. 2019 initiatives included:

• The hiring of multiple new, highly-experience managing directors to oversee day-to-

day operations across its newly acquired facilities.
• The launch of the Group’s new Medical Council. The new body will be under the
direct supervision and guidance of the Board’s quality committee and will be
composed of renowned specialized consultants from across the Group’s hospitals.
• The launch of the new Doctor Sales Function. The team will be targeting consultant
sales and work to attract the highest quality and experienced talent in the country. The
new sales function has been focusing heavily on enhancing referrals at the Group’s
cardiovascular, orthopedic, and general surgery specialties.
• The introduction of an enhanced employee training and development program to
provide tailored, career-enhancing training to all staff.
• The launch of a new succession planning scheme to develop the Group’s future class
of managers.

Information Technology
The Group continued to make progress on the rollout of its Group-wide HIS/Enterprise
Resource Planning (ERP) system. As of year-end 2019. the system is operational at both
the East and West Cairo Polyclinics as well as at Cairo Specialised Hospital. Currently, the
Group is rolling out the new system at Cleopatra Hospital before moving on to Queens
Hospital. Management expects the full migration by end of 2020. The Group is also in the
pre-launch phase for its new CHG app. The new app will allow patients to book

appointments, review diagnostics, and follow up on their medical cases from anywhere in
the world through their smartphones.

Commercial and Business Development

During the course of the year, CHG has worked to revamp its claim collection process
introducing a new fully organised revenue cycle management framework. This has in turn
supported the normalization of the Group’s receivables impairments throughout the last
four quarters. In 4Q2019, impairments came in at EGP 9.7 million, bringing the total for
the second half of the year to EGP 17.4 million versus a total of EGP 41.2 million booked
in the first two quarters. As part of the new revenue cycle management framework, CHG
has established a new dedicated team to oversee the claim collection and post-submission
credit control processes. The Group has also introduced several internal KPIs related to
revenue cycle management to ensure that the new framework helps continue to achieve the
desired improvements.

CSR and Social Impact Partnership

Partnership with MOH - Skills Enhancement Program

The Skill Enhancement Programme (SEP), designed by CHG in partnership with the
Ministry of Health as part of the wider Health Insurance Program implemented by the
Egyptian Government, was first launched in Port Said Governate in June of this year. As
part of the SEP, CHG provides the staff in public hospitals a learning opportunity to
enhance their technical and managerial skills, ultimately aiming to improve the service
quality provided. Throughout the year, CHG completed the first phase of the program and
made significant progress on the second phase. As part of the program’s second phase,
CHG is delivering medical and administrative training courses to medical and non-medical
staff at three hospitals in Port Said (El Nasr Specialized Hospital, El Tadamon Hospital
and El Nesa Hospital). As at year-end 2019, the Group had trained over 600 staff members
on fundamental medical and non-medical functions. The next phases of the SEP will see
the Group begin to help monitor operations at the three hospitals by transferring its
knowledge and best practices, and implement the tailored administrative systems and
protocols which have enabled CHG to become a market leader in the healthcare sector.

Gross Profit
CHG reported a gross profit of EGP 625.5 million in FY2019, a 22% y-o-y increase. GPM
for the year stood at 35% unchanged from last year’s margin. Cleopatra Hospital, which
continues to include Queens Hospital’s results, reported a 13% y-o-y rise in gross profit
and made up half of total gross profit for the period. Cairo Specialised Hospital reported
the fastest gross profit growth rate for the year expanding 47% y-o-y and making up 20%
of CHG’s consolidated gross profit. Nile Badrawi Hospital reported a 21% y-o-y rise in
gross profits, making up 17% of the Group’s gross profits, followed by Al Shorouk
Hospital which saw a 27% y-o-y rise in gross profit, making a 14% contribution to
consolidated gross profit for the year.

In the last quarter of the year, the Group’s gross profit expanded 17% y-o-y to EGP 173.6,
with an associated margin of 34%. On a per hospital basis, Cairo Specialised Hospital
continued to report the fastest year-on-year growth rate at 39%, with Cleopatra Hospital
(which includes results from Queens Hospital) continuing to make up the lion share of total
gross profit at 48% for 4Q2019.

G&A Expenses
General and administrative (G&A) expenses consist of the company’s non-medical staff
costs, including those of senior management and Group-level professional consulting fees.
G&A expenses also include the Group’s Long-Term Incentive Program (LTIP), a non-cash
charge linked to share price appreciation and EBITDA growth. The LTIP has a four-year
maturity period maturing by 30 June 2020, after which amounts will be disbursed. Outlays
for G&A purposes increased 85% y-o-y in FY2019 to EGP 338.0 million, and 41% y-o-y
to EGP 64.6 million on a quarterly basis.

The year-on-year increase on both a full-year and quarterly basis, came on the back of an
increase in the accrued non-cash LTIP expense and a rise in impairments for the periods.
In FY2019, LTIP expenses came in at EGP 83.8 million compared to EGP 20.4 million in
FY2018. In the last three months of the year, LTIP expenses recorded EGP 11.2 million
compared to EGP 3.6 million in the same quarter of 2018. The Group booked EGP 58.6
million in impairments during FY2019 compared to EGP 1.7 million in FY2018. The rise
in impairments for the year was related to claims from 2016, 2017, and to a lesser extent
2018. However, during the last three months of the year, impairments continued on their
path towards normalization coming in at EGP 9.7 million. This brings the total impairments
booked in 2H2019 to EGP 17.4 million, significantly down from the EGP 41.2 million
booked in the first half of the year. The decrease was supported by the Group’s efforts to
establish a more structured revenue cycle management and enhance the quality of its claims
collection procedure.

EBITDA
CHG’s EBITDA, factoring out acquisition expenses, impairments, the LTIP’s non-cash
charge, pre-operating expenses and contributions from other income, increased 24% y-o-y
in FY2019 surpassing the half-a-million mark to reach EGP 501.1 million. EBITDA
margin for the year stood unchanged at 28%. On a quarterly basis, EBITDA increased to
EGP 153.8 million, up 27% y-o-y with an associated margin of 30%.

Excluding the negative impact on EBITDA of the Group’s East and West Cairo polyclinics
launched in 2019 and Queens Hospital, currently undergoing refurbishment works,
EBITDA would have expanded 32% y-o-y in FY2019, with a margin of 30%.

of-the-art equipment, as the Group continues to focus on improving its healthcare services
and continue to provide superior clinical outcomes.
