Bumrungrad Hospital (BH TB) - Less Optimistic On Foreign Patient Numbe...
The tone at BH’s 1Q25 analyst meeting was negative. Management still does not expect a rebound in hospital revenue as a result of the earthquake in Mar 25. The drop in revenue intensity in 1Q25 could become a concern if it becomes a recurring trend. Despite the positive development in Saudi Arabia and Bangladesh, we are less optimistic on BH as it lacks a substantial catalyst to improve its earnings. Downgrade to HOLD. Target price: Bt178.00.

BH reported a net profit of Bt1.73b (-12.6% yoy, -8.9% qoq) in 1Q25, which is in line with our and consensus estimates. The high base last year and the earlier timing of Ramadan this year caused top-line to drop by 6.1% yoy. Growth in revenue from Thai patients was weak at 1.3% yoy and was not sufficient to compensate for the shortfall in foreign patient revenue. We are more optimistic about BH’s 2Q25 outlook as the impact from Ramadan was already realised in 1Q25. Maintain BUY. Target pric...

Bumrungrad Hospital (BH TB) - Expect Weak 1Q25 Earnings Due To Margin ...
We expect BH to report a net profit of Bt1.7b in 1Q25 (-13.2% yoy, -9.4% qoq). Top-line should be weak at Bt6.1b (-6.5% yoy, -5.6% qoq) due to the high base last year and the earlier timing of Ramadan this year. As a result, the expected decrease in Middle Eastern patient volume should also lead to a yoy margin contraction. We expect the 2Q25 outlook to improve, as a yoy growth will come off a more normalised base in 2Q24. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt232.00.

Bumrungrad Hospital (BH TB) - Outlook For Foreign Patients Remains Und...
We attended BH’s 4Q24 analyst meeting and the tone was neutral. The strong growth of Thai patients in 4Q24 was attributable to the health checkup season. There have been favourable developments in Middle Eastern countries like Kuwait and Saudi Arabia but a definite timeline is still lacking. We believe that earnings growth in 1Q25 will be challenging due to the shortfall in Kuwait. However, we expect to see a gradual improvement from 2Q25 onwards. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt232.00.

BH reported a net profit of Bt1.9b in 4Q24 (+10.6% yoy, -2.7% qoq), above our expectations but in line with consensus’. The strong earnings were mainly contributed by the utilisation of tax benefit in the quarter. Top-line came in at Bt6.5b, down slightly yoy due to the continuous drop in foreign patient revenue, partly offset by the strong growth of Thai patients. We expect to see slight growth in 1Q25 with a mixed outlook. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt232.00.

Bumrungrad Hospital (BH TB) - Weak 4Q24 Earnings Expected
BH should report a net profit of Bt1.7b in 4Q24 (-1.3% yoy, -13.1% qoq). The earnings should remain weak as the top-line is expected to be pressured by the weak international patient outlook. Although BH should be fairly immune to copayment, the weak outlook for top-line growth is likely to persist. We expect the 1Q25 outlook to remain weak, as Ramadan this year will fall entirely in 1Q25, negatively impacting BH's earnings. Maintain BUY. Target price: Bt232.00.

BH reported a net profit of Bt1.96b in 3Q24 (+0.0% yoy, +1.2% qoq) which disappointed the market due to lower-than-expected revenue. Revenue from both Thai and foreign patients declined yoy. We believe that in the long term, BH still has strong fundamentals as construction of its new hospital in Phuket has already started and capacity expansion at the main campus is underway.
