1. Unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for Manta Bidco for comparative purposes. This information
   has been prepared on the basis that the acquisition took place on 1 April 2023 and therefore includes Manta Bidco
   purchase price allocation (PPA) adjustments for a six-month period to 30 September 2023. Refer to page 9 of the Manta
   Bidco Abridged Results for a reconciliation between the previously published Mediclinic 1H24 financial information
   and the Manta Bidco 1H24 pro forma financial information.
2. The percentage variances are calculated in unrounded US dollar values and not in millions.
3. The Group uses adjusted income statement reporting as non-IFRS measures in evaluating performance and to provide
   consistent and comparable reporting. Refer to the policy and 'Reconciliations' section on pages 6 to 8 of the Manta
   Bidco Abridged Results.
4. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA").
5. Earnings refers to earnings attributable to equity holders.
6. Net incurred debt reflects bank borrowings, net of cash and cash equivalents, and excludes IFRS 16 lease liabilities.
7. Cash conversion, calculated as cash generated from operations as a percentage of adjusted EBITDA, is used by
   management to measure cash generation by the Group.

RESULTS COMMENTARY
The Group delivered satisfying results for the six months ended 30 September 2024 against a backdrop of a persistently
challenging operating environment, particularly in Switzerland where simultaneous pressure on tariffs and operating costs
is impacting the performance of healthcare service providers. The Board and management team is responding to these
challenges through a comprehensive plan aimed at reducing costs, improving efficiencies and adapting the business to a
path of sustainability and growth.

The Group's performance for the six months ended 30 September 2024 was driven by strong volume growth across all the
divisions. Group revenue was up 6% at $2 337m (1H24: $2 199m) and up 5% in constant currency terms. Inpatient
admissions and day cases grew by 2.3% and 2.1%, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA was up 13% at $323m (1H24: $285m) and up 12% in constant currency terms. The Group's adjusted
EBITDA margin was 13.8% (1H24: 13.0%), reflecting good revenue growth and cost efficiencies, partially offset by higher
consumable and supply costs mainly because of ongoing mix changes.
