EMIS Group - Loss of Welsh GP business

EMIS has been informed that it has not been selected as a preferred vendor for the NHS Wales Primary Care framework agreement. The 195 GP practices currently using EMIS Web, which generate annual revenues of c £2m at below group average operating margins, will need to transition to a new supplier over the course of FY19 and FY20. We estimate that this could have a less than 0.5% impact on FY19 EPS and less than 1% on an ongoing basis once all practices have transitioned. So soon after the news regarding issues in the customer support process, this is clearly disappointing. However, the financial impact is marginal and confirms that EMIS is focused on profitability when winning or retaining business.
