Initiate coverage on Apollo (OW) and Fortis (N)


Huge demand-supply mismatch: At 0.9 beds per 1,000 people, India ranks low among emerging nations in healthcare provision, even though it carries 20% of the global disease burden. Increasing affluence, changing demographics and shifting lifestyle-driven disease patterns support growth. The investment opportunity for private players is huge in our view, given public participation is low and out-of-pocket spend is as high at 80%. Significant capacity in pipeline: Leading players Apollo and Fortis plan to cumulatively add 5,000 beds by FY15 (51% of their current combined capacity). We expect industry margins to remain flat despite significant new capacity addition, thanks to improving returns from mature beds and a continued focus on improving occupancy, case mix and turnover. Existing challenges thriving new delivery models: Shortage of skilled medical personnel, increasing real estate costs and emergence of new entrants despite significant entry barriers have compelled Apollo and Fortis to diversify. Apollos low-cost REACH hospitals and Fortiss foray into overseas markets and new service segments are new, developing business models. Initiate OW on Apollo Hospitals, N on Fortis Healthcare. We initiate coverage on Apollo with an OW rating on the back of the strong growth in its hospital business, increasing contribution from pharmacy and adequate funding for expansion. Any potential strategic tie-up in pharmacy could act as a near-term share price catalyst. On the other hand, we expect near-term earnings for Fortis to remain under pressure given its high interest burden after its overseas expansion. While its growth in India is strong, its international prospects are uncertain.

Structural healthcare deficiencies and rising healthcare spend

suggest growth among private players is sustainable


Significant capacity expansion over the next decade and new

business models also contribute to growth among private players


While there are number of challenges and risks, high entry

barriers favour incumbents such as Apollo and Fortis

Structural deficiencies
Low on supply
While the healthcare delivery market is huge (USD60bn in 2010) and has been growing at a c12% CAGR (over2007-2010), investment in the industry has lagged significantly behind. Public participation has been poor, with more than 75% of overall investment in healthcare coming from the private sector (one of the highest rates in the world). Despite a large share (c50%) of hospitals overall healthcare market, the infrastructure in terms of number of hospitals, beds and medical personnel is far below the world average. India only has 9 beds per 10,000 people, versus the US (31 beds) and the world average (29 beds). This is despite India carrying a higher share of the worlds total disease burden (at 20%). We estimate c60% of Indias c30,000 hospitals are private and c45% of hospital beds are private. We believe this ratio would be even higher if we look at beds only in tertiary care, given public healthcare infrastructure is currently oriented to primary and secondary needs.

In-patient and out-patient revenues in India are expected to grow significantly

among middle class, the in-patient revenues will be a key growth driver within healthcare services. Importantly, we believe the rise in demand will largely benefit private players given their stronger brands and focus on higher successful outcomes (which are benchmarked against developed world healthcare).

Healthcare: An emerging private affair


Indias national healthcare spending is 4.1% of GDP (source: World Bank 2010), which is among the lowest rates in the world. As a result, quality healthcare has increasingly fallen into the hands of private players. Over the last two decades, a large number of tertiary care hospitals within the public sector have faced a resource crunch resulting in an inability to maintain quality service. This along with increasing affordability, growing demand for complex diagnostic and therapeutic treatments and increasing awareness has increased the preference for private hospitals.

Source: CRISIL

High in demand
Some of the key factors driving growth in demand for healthcare services include: Rising income levels: increasing affordability and awareness for quality treatments Changing demographics: increasing proportion of elderly who have more healthcare needs Changing disease profile: higher incidence of cardiac ailments, diabetes and other lifestyle-related medical disorders that require more hospitalization Medical tourism: low cost quality treatment makes India a favoured destination Increase in health insurance: increasing insurance penetration increases affordability It is estimated that the overall healthcare market will reach cUSD80bn by 2015 (source: CRISIL), the majority of which will be in-patient revenues. Currently cINR250bn worth of spending is on inpatient services and the majority (c60%) of healthcare spending is out-patient; this which indicates healthcare affordability remains low and disease patterns are still dominated by acute infections. We believe with an increased share of lifestyle disorders and improving affordability

USD160bn investment opportunity and largely private


Given Indias current low global ranking in terms of the ratio of hospital beds to population, we believe there is a huge investment opportunity. Assuming the population continues to grow at the current rate, India needs to add c930,000 beds by 2020 to improve its bed to population ratio to just 15 beds per 10,000 people. This would require an additional investment of cUSD52bn assuming a bed costs USD50,000. We believe 30% of additions will be required for complex medical treatments in cardiac, oncology and transplant therapies. To reach the global average of 30 beds per 10,000 people, we calculate India would need to invest to cUSD160bn in hospital healthcare.

Healthcare Hospitals 9 July 2012

Crucially, we believe the investment opportunity will continue to fall largely in the hands of private players given the low government participation.
Huge investment opportunity towards goal of meeting global average beds per population

Advantage to Apollo and Fortis


Given the high initial set-up costs, long gestation periods and continuing challenges in terms of the shortage of skilled medical personnel and continual change in medical technology, the barriers for entry to healthcare provision in India are high. Existing players including Apollo and Fortis have already achieved the following: Established a presence in hot-spots including metros across the country. Utilized their early-mover advantage to create sizeable capacity and reach and establish brand equity that defines quality healthcare Established an ability to attract and retain strong medical talent which we believe is critical to success of a hospital Reached a stage of reaping significant cash flows from mature beds We believe it will be difficult for new players to establish a significant presence in tertiary care in major Indian markets, like the large cities, in light of the above.

Both Apollo and Fortis have been aggressive in expanding bed capacity. Apollo aims to add c40% of current bed capacity in the next three years which would take its owned beds to over 8,500. The Fortis model has been more acquisition driven and share of greenfield projects may slowly increase. The group has widened its network to 75 hospitals and over 12,000 beds including acquisition of assets under FHIL (Fortis Healthcare International).

What we look for in hospitals


Balanced capacity expansion and higher proportion of younger beds
The growth in the hospital industry hinges on new beds. We prefer operators with a planned gradual build-up of capacity and a portfolio of hospitals with a larger proportion of younger beds (under three years since development and acquisition), which provide margin enhancement opportunities.

Portfolio end-market characteristics


We prefer high exposure to local markets that operate with significantly higher ARPOBs (lesser competition), higher affordability (higher per capita disposable income) and have reasonably strong in-patient and out-patient volume. We believe characteristics of markets that hospitals operate in can greatly affect financial and operational performance of the overall business.
Net debt/EBITDA comparison Company FY12 FY13e FY14e FY15e

Improving or stable returns on capital


While most of the hospital industry suffers from low returns due to its capital intensive nature, we prefer organizations that have a history of generating higher returns on incremental investments and/or are exhibiting meaningful improvement in their ratios as most facilities mature in the portfolio. Typically a tertiary bed can generate over 25% operating margin from the fifth year of operation with the peak at c30%.

Lower gearing and exposure to bad debt


Given the capital intensive nature of the hospital business, companies with easier access to new capital have an advantage. We believe exposure to bad debt is an issue to consider when evaluating hospitals. Given the relatively high share of outof-pocket expenses in the country, the exposure to bad debt has so far been low.

Initiating coverage
We initiate coverage on the two leading private hospital chains in the country Apollo Hospitals and Fortis Healthcare. We value both using sumof-the-parts primarily using EV/EBITDA methodology for the hospitals business. We also use DCF as an alternative valuation approach.

Fortis Healthcare (FORH IN, N, TP INR115)


We initiate on Fortis Healthcare with a Neutral rating. Fortis is the second largest hospital chain in India in terms of operational beds but has been most aggressive in terms of growth which in large part has been the result of acquisitions including Escorts, Malar and Wockhardt hospitals. The India hospital business now forms only 50% of total revenues after the consolidation of its international assets, which were previously held by its promoter company. These recent acquisitions have significantly increased leverage and worsened its return ratios. While a pan-Asia presence is a positive, the higher costs and debt will put pressure on near-term margins. Nonetheless the expansion plan is robust with close to a doubling of its bed capacity in India over the next three years. Additionally, as per company recent plans for splitting the companys assets and listing a REIT structure in Singapore may bring additional funds and lower debt. The diagnostic business under SRL recently made its third private equity investment and may see a turnaround in margins in the longer term. We value the India business at 14x FY14e EBITDA (similar to Apollo) and the international business at 12x FY14e EBITDA. Our 12-month target price is INR115.

Apollo Hospitals (APHS IN, OW, TP INR796)


We initiate on Apollo Hospitals with an Overweight rating. Apollo is the largest hospital chain in the country with 8,300 beds (5,888 owned and 2,388 managed) of which 5,153 beds were operational as of FY12. The company has an aggressive expansion plan with over 500 operational beds planned in FY13 alone. Over the next three years it has an expansion plan of c2,900 beds, funding for a large part of which is tied up. The retail pharmacy business is at an inflection point with margin expansion expected on the back of incremental contributions from new pharmacy stores as they reach maturity. We value the hospital business at 14x FY14e EBITDA and pharmacy at 0.5x sales. These two segments form over 95% of our target price. We value Apollos 22% stake in Indraprastha Medical (listed associate) at 1x market cap and Apollos 39.4% stake in Apollo Health Street at book value to arrive at a target price of INR796.

Valuation and performance


Indian hospitals trade at a premium to global peers High valuations are justified by significant market potential and

growth dynamics favouring incumbents, in our view


We use a sum-of-the-parts valuation methodology, with the

hospital business valued using relative EV/EBITDA

Indian hospitals trading at a premium


Both Apollo and Fortis are trading at premium valuations compared to hospitals in developed markets. However, we think this is justified by strong expansion plans and the sectors structural growth story, which favours private players. We note that the group is currently trading at 14.5x one-year forward EV/EBITDA, compared to a historical trading range of 10-25x and a fiveyear average of 16x. While Apollo has seen a stable EV/EBITDA of 14x in the past year, the EV/EBITDA multiple for Fortis has come off from high levels after its foray into overseas markets through Fortis International. On a PE basis, Apollo currently trades at 31.6x FY13e and 23.2x FY14e EPS. The stock has historically traded at an average one-year forward PE of 29.3x and three-year average of 26.1x. Fortis, on the other hand, is trading at a 49.6x oneyear forward PE with a one-year average of 54.1x owing to its low earnings.

EV/EBITDA over PE
EV/EBITDA is widely used to value hospitals largely because of substantial changes to financial structures over time. Each hospital has its unique capital structure and allocation strategy; the impact on depreciation, interest expenses and ultimately net profit varies depending upon whether the company acquires or divests facilities or utilizes cash to pay off debts. Additionally, different groups of hospitals at different ages and sizes affect expenses below operating level. Thus we prefer using EV/EBITDA over PE. A lack of a substantial history of positive earnings merits use of EBITDA multiples in certain cases (such as Fortis). Lastly the group tends to trade in a tighter band on EV/EBITDA than on PE.

EV/Bed is a frequently used tool to value hospitals. While it is easy to compute and use within one geographical set of hospitals, the number of beds is not a good indicator of the profitability of the business as the economic conditions in different geographies vary considerably. Hence it is of limited use when comparing hospitals across different markets.

DCF
We have used DCF as an alternative methodology for valuing Indian hospitals. We believe DCF is an apt tool to value hospitals given the capital intensive nature of the industry and large cash flows tied to the future. Current valuations, however, also reflect heightened M&A activity and private equity interest, which we believe are not accounted for in DCF. We believe hospital valuations react to such events favourably. See a list of PE and M&A deals in the hospital space in the appendix.

Historical price performance


Hospital stocks are considered very defensive given that healthcare demand tends to be resilient even during poor economic conditions. Apollo has been a strong performer in this space beating Fortis and the broader equity index by a large margin. Apollo has outperformed the BSE Sensex by a whopping 70% in the past two years. Even during the past year with the Sensex down 8%, Apollo appreciated by 30%. Fortis, on the other hand, has seen a sharp share price decline following its acquisition of Fortis International. The stock has underperformed BSE Sensex by 30% in the last 12 months.

Healthcare infrastructure inadequate in India


Structural deficits present significant opportunities
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) Health Statistics 2011 report, India lags several developing nations like China, Brazil, Russia and Mexico, as well as smaller countries like Thailand, Sri Lanka and Vietnam in terms of healthcare provision. In terms of beds, India had just 9 per 10,000 population during 2000-09, well behind the global average of 29. India also lags behind in terms of its ratios of medical personnel to population, with just 6 physicians per 10,000 population versus a global median of 14, and 13 nurses and midwives per 10,000 compared to a global average of 29. This structural shortage represents a huge growth opportunity for healthcare companies in India. Assuming the average cost to develop a bed excluding land cost is INR2-2.5m, we estimate India would need to investment INR5,000-6,100bn just to reach the global average of 29 beds per 10,000 people. We believe private sector healthcare players will benefit the most from this investment

opportunity given the private sector accounted for 68% of spending on healthcare in 2008 in India (source: WHO). Private sector players consist mainly of corporate, diagnostic laboratories, pharmacies, trusts, charitable organizations.

As seen from the exhibit, Indias healthcare expenditure as a percentage of GDP is one of the lowest in the world at just 4.2%. Indias government healthcare spending is particularly low because of the high proportion of private healthcare spending. As public health is a responsibility managed at the state level in India, the increased participation requires commitment from state governments.

As per the 12th Five-Year Plan, the government plans to triple spending on healthcare, raising it from 0.9% to 2.5% of GDP over 2012-17. The increase in budgeted allocation is in accordance with the increasing focus on National Rural Health Mission (see appendix), introduction of district-wide pilots of Universal Health Coverage (UHC), planned establishment of new medical colleges like All India Institute of Medical Sciences, and the creation of a public health cadre (government appointed healthcare supervisors) and a central procurement agency to provide access to free medicines.

Key drivers
According to Frost & Sullivan, the Indian healthcare market was worth USD59.5bn in 2010, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of c15% over the next few years. Of the total healthcare market in India, 70-72% comprises healthcare delivery services, 20-22% pharmaceutical market and the remaining is medical technologies and other services. This growth will mainly be driven by: 1) rising income levels and health awareness; 2) changing disease profiles with a shift from acute to chronic diseases; 3) changing demographics; 4) booming medical tourism; and 5) increasing healthcare

This trend suggests a shift in demand towards private healthcare, which have gained market share from public hospitals. According to Indias Central Bureau of Health Intelligence, the majority of Indians prefer private healthcare despite a higher average cost of USD4.3 compared to USD2.7 in government-owned facilities. Only 23.5% urban residents and 30.6% rural residents prefer government facilities, which imply a widespread lack of confidence in the public healthcare system.

Rising affluence
Rising income and education levels have raised the standard of health awareness, boosting demand for both standard and advanced healthcare services among the population. This can be observed in the rising trend of private healthcare expenditure as a proportion of GDP over the past decade. Growth of over 25% in private healthcare expenditure in 2010 was much higher than the average growth of 12% of the last decade.

In India, 67% of spending on healthcare is private, of which 75% is out-of-pocket expenditure (which is one of the highest levels in the world). Also, with rising disposable income and increasing awareness about healthcare, a relatively large proportion of discretionary income in India is being spent on healthcare services. As seen above, despite a fall from pre-2005 levels, healthcare and medical needs as a proportion of total private consumption are expected to increase from the current 4.8% to 6.5% by FY20. We believe rising disposable income of Indian households and increasing discretionary spending on healthcare will be the key growth drivers for healthcare service providers, mainly the private players as a majority of healthcare spend is outof-pocket private spending.

Changing disease profile


Rising affluence of Indian households has led to an epidemiological shift towards life-style-related chronic diseases like cardiovascular disorders (CVS), mental disorders and diabetes. The extent of chronic disease burden is clear: India is now the diabetes centre of the world with more than 50m diabetic patients and this number is further expected to increase. Increasing proportion of aging people in the overall population is another factor contributing to increasing chronic disease burden as aged people are more susceptible to chronic disease such as hypertension, diabetes and heart ailments. Considering the higher cost and longer duration involved in the near-term treatment of chronic diseases, there will be increasing demand for

advanced, well-equipped diagnostics centres and hospitals. Increasing affluence help ensure that Indian households can afford the cost of chronic disease treatment. As per industry estimates, cardiovascular diseases, cancer and diabetes accounted for 13.8% of all hospitalized cases in India in 2008 (accounting for 38.6% of in-patient revenues in value terms). Chronic diseases are expected to account for approximately 17.5% and 19.9% of the hospitalized cases in 2012 and 2017 respectively. As per a WHO report (Mahal et al. 2010), between two study periods (1995-96 and 2004) the share of chronic disease in total out-of-pocket health expenditures in India increased from 31.6% to 47.3%, which shows the growing importance of chronic diseases in terms of their financial impact on households and a financial burden on affected individuals and households. Also, it was observed that hospitalization expenses due to chronic diseases were nearly 160% higher than hospitalization expenses due to communicable

diseases. Hence, increasing chronic disease burden underpins growth for hospitals and other healthcare service providers.

As per various studies, c50% of older Indians have at least one chronic disease like diabetes, asthma, cardiac and mental disorders. The aging population will lead to an increase in these diseases which in turn increases demand for healthcare services.

Medical tourism
Due to ballooning healthcare costs in developed nations (US, UK, Western Europe), more patients from these countries are viewing India as a preferred destination for affordable, quality medical care. According to a report by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM), Indias medical tourism sector is expected to grow to INR95m by 2015 from INR15m in 2008.

Apollo has the largest market share among the private hospitals in the country and received about 50,000 medical tourists in 2010, followed by Max, Fortis, Care and Sterling. Growing specialty services with a focus on highly skilled technology driven surgeries including robotics is expected to drive medical tourism in the future.

That said, while India faces stiff competition from Singapore and Malaysia which are also emerging as healthcare destinations, increasing medical tourism demand is emerging from parts of Middle East and Western Asia.

Key hurdles
Trained personnel shortage
Finding and retaining qualified doctors and nurses is challenging especially when the country has a low ratio of medical personnel to the population. India suffers on these parameters essentially due to a lack of adequate training and the high incidence of migration of talent to developed markets. According to data released by the government of India in 2008, India had a shortfall of 0.6m doctors, 1m nurses and 0.2m dental surgeons. This is particularly problematic for the public healthcare system, which is at risk of losing experienced and qualified staff to the private sector. As per the Medical Council of India, around 34,700 doctors graduated from 335 medical colleges in India in 2010. Assuming a similar level of growth in the number of graduating doctors and medical colleges, we believe the number of doctors per 10,000 people can increase from the current level of 6 to 8.3. Although this level wont completely ease the shortage of qualified doctors in India, this will bring the doctor to people ratio closer to the WHO recommended level of 10. The retention of talented medical pool is a critical issue given most patients are tied to a doctor and there have been instances in the past where the departure senior talented personnel has resulted in lower occupancy that has impacted profitability.

Increase in health insurance


Given that there is a large proportion of out-ofpocket spend on healthcare in India, healthcare insurance has yet to become material in terms of affordability and reach. As the penetration of healthcare insurance increases, quality healthcare will become more affordable to a larger percentage of the population. Currently less than 5% of the population has some form of health insurance and this is expected to increase to 20% by 2015.

50-55% of this cost is attributed to the acquisition of land and construction related expenses. Many leading companies are opting for an asset-light model by leasing their assets over a long period of time (typically 30 years) and paying lease rate with certain escalation every year to the lessor. In certain cases, the lessee shares the percentage of EBITDA. Such a model helps ease the need for upfront investments and also leads to lower depreciation and interest expenses going forward, thus reflecting better on return ratios. Additionally the purchase and replacement of advanced medical equipment involve significant costs, and expose hospitals to currency fluctuation risk, given most equipment needs to be imported from overseas.

Technological advancement
Constant upgrading of facilities and incorporation of new technologies are essential to sustain patient volumes and reduce average length of stay. Additionally, the lack of modern medical equipment and operating theatres could lead to market share losses. Many large hospitals are benchmarking their medical equipment against western hospitals to attract foreign patients. In our view, this is critical factor to sustaining long-term growth in medical tourism in India. While surgical treatment costs are low in India, equipment costs and other investments in technology incur similar pricing and can put pressure on margins.

Access to capital and land


Given the high capital intensity, access to capital is a constant risk and could be critical to a successful business strategy. Additionally, the acquisition of new land and expansion into existing areas can be costly and challenging and is subject to market movements. Many firms are opting for a lease on a long-term basis over owning direct land. Most hospitals look for favourable lease arrangements when accessing new territories which are unexplored in terms of market potential. In certain cases, negotiations and rearrangements might lead to certain disputes and may incur additional costs.

Increasing competition in local markets


The penetration of medical services is uneven across India. In Gurgaon and Hyderabad, for example, the supply of beds outstrips demand, impacting occupancy and pricing power. This can make building a brand and market presence in some metro areas a significant challenge for nationwide players. As per the latest data available, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad rank high among metros with over 2 beds per 1,000 population vs Delhi (1.4), Mumbai (0.8) and Kolkata (0.8). Additionally, some hospitals are establishing a competitive advantage by specializing in a particular field, such as Asian Heart Institute in cardiology and Aditya Jyot Hospital in

These hospitals tend to present tough competition to hospitals that offer a wider range of services, as they have built up a strong brand within their own field, offering proven expertise in handling complicated cases. They operate on lower costs and hence have better profitability. The potential entry of overseas healthcare chains in India is another threat.

Increasing occupancy in Hyderabad and other clusters, coupled

with aggressive expansion plans, suggests ample room for growth


Initiate with OW and TP of INR796; unlocking value in non-core

Leader in private healthcare


Apollo is the established leader among private healthcare providers in India, with the widest footprint in the southeast and an increasing presence in the northwest. With coverage expansion to over 50 self-owned hospitals and 8,500 self-owned beds, we believe the company is well positioned to benefit from the potential growth in the countrys currently weak healthcare infrastructure base. We expect timely additions of beds, ramp-up in occupancy levels in Hyderabad and other clusters and further improvement in average revenue per operating bed (ARPOB) at key clusters including Chennai and Hyderabad to be material drivers of growth in the near term. The standalone pharmacy business, while still a drag on overall margins, is likely to show gradual improvement; value in this business could be unlocked through a potential divestment. Core hospital business outlook strong Mumbai cluster newest entry: Apollo Group currently has 5,888 beds and aims to add about 3,000 new beds through FY15, which includes setting up a new cluster in Mumbai which should bring higher ARPOB given the industry statistics in metros. At the same time, occupancy is increasing in Hyderabad and ARPOB at flagship

hospitals is expanding through an improving case mix and focus on centres of excellence. The REACH model (targeting non-metro and nonurban) is expected to scale up patient volumes in bigger hospitals. We expect hospitals to remain the key driver of earnings, contributing over 95% of the total in the next three years. We estimate sales to grow at a CAGR of 22% over FY12-15 in the core business and operating margins to expand 50bp during this period. Unlocking value in retail pharmacy and other non core businesses: The retail pharmacy business which broke even last year is at an inflection point, with profitability expected to continue improving. A potential stake sale to a strategic partner and likely divestment of outsourcing business under Apollo Health Street (as guided by the company) could unlock significant value, in our view. Initiate with OW: We initiate coverage of Apollo Hospitals with an OW rating, valuing it using a sum-of-the-parts methodology (14x EV/EBITDA for hospitals, 0.5x EV/sales for pharmacy business and additional INR23 per share for associates). Key risks include delay in execution of key projects and slower margin build up in pharmacy business.

Hospital business brings in 75% of revenue


Largest hospital network in India
Apollo obtains revenues from two main segments: healthcare services and retail pharmacy. Healthcare services comprising hospital-based revenues, hospital-based pharmacies and consultancy generated 75% of revenues in FY12 while retail pharmacy accounted for 25%. With over 51 hospitals and 8,000 beds, Apollo has the widest reach in the country with a significant presence in major metro areas, including Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata and New Delhi. Founded in 1979, the group owns about 5,890 beds through its own hospitals and JV partnerships, and manages another 2,600 beds. The company started its operations in Chennai and had just 150 beds in 1983. In 1988, it expanded to Hyderabad. It was in early 2000 that it made its entry in New Delhi and Kolkata (until then it had no presence in northern India). The company opened the 425-bed Gleneagles Hospital in Kolkata through a 50:50 JV with Parkway Group of Singapore and another in Ahmedabad in JV with Cadila Pharma. In 2008, the company launched its REACH initiative to make quality healthcare accessible to people in rural areas.

cardiac procedures, 50 neuro-surgeries, and conducts 400 dialysis and 40,000 laboratory tests every day. Apollo has many firsts to its name (see exhibit below). The well-known ACE@25 programme implemented in 32 of the groups centres focuses on centres of excellence and aids in improving clinical outcomes at its hospitals (benchmarking against globally renowned healthcare institutions with 25 parameters). During FY12, the Apollo Transplant Institute completed 929 transplants in a single year making it one of the busiest programs of its kind in the world. The company has adopted the latest technology the daVinci Si Surgical robotic system to obtain the best clinical outcomes in various procedures. The Apollo Institute of Robotic Surgery, launched six months ago, has already completed 55 robotic surgeries.

angioplasties) and over 7,603 cardiac surgeries in FY11. Its six Centres of Excellence contributed c65% of revenue as of FY12 and are targeted to reach c80%. This will be boosted by the addition of new super specialities and growth of existing specialities. Typically, oncology and transplantation units are added to a hospital after 2-3 years of operation. According to CRISIL (Credit Rating and Information Services of India Ltd), cardiac and cancer cases accounted for 22.3% and 13.1%, respectively, of in-patient hospital revenues in India in 2008 and this is expected to increase to 32.1% and 16.2%, respectively, by end 2018. We expect the focus on Centres of Excellence to benefit private players, including Apollo, on the back of changing lifestyles leading to new disease patterns in the overall population.

Centres of Excellence
CONCORT (cardiology, oncology, neurology, critical care, orthopaedics, radiology and transplants) represents Apollos focus areas when it comes to improving case mix. Case mix is an important driver of revenue growth and profitability given that lifestyle disorders are growing faster and attracting better pricing. Apollo has dedicated centres of excellence for the above key specialities and super specialities. Apollo performed over 9,095 PTCAs (percutaneous transluminal coronary

expect incremental growth to come from an increase in ARPOB essentially. The Hyderabad cluster, however, has room for improvement; occupancy dipped from 65% in FY11 to 62% on the back of empanelment delays from certain institutional clients owing to disputes with insurance companies and the addition of new beds. As these issues have now been resolved, we expect occupancy to improve materially. Both inpatient and out-patient volume growth in this cluster remained strong at 16% and 25%, respectively, in FY12 which will drive occupancy. We expect occupancy to increase to c67% by FY15 despite the addition of beds. We expect all of the 1,300 commissioned beds are operational by FY15.

Chennai however improved its occupancy from 73% in FY11 to 75% in FY12 essentially on the back of a decrease bed capacity due to the removal of 30 beds in the main hospital to accommodate an operating theatre for liver transplantation and robotic surgery. The EBITDA margin in Chennai was c32-34% in FY12, one of the highest in the group. With a marginal expansion plan in Chennai in the near term and already high occupancy levels, we

In addition to this, it plans to expand its Chennai main facility, which is already operating at c75-80% occupancy rate. The capex plan includes cINR17.5bn (Apollos share of total estimated project cost) over the next three years of which INR2.6bn is already invested. The company added 368 beds to its operation in FY12 and about 800 beds over the past 18 months. Of these, 85% were added to existing hospitals and mature clusters, with the rest added under REACH. Around 700 beds were added in Hyderabad, Bhubaneshwar, Karaikudi, Lavasa and Secunderabad. The company has guided capex of INR4bn in FY13, the majority of which is already tied up. The company has transitioned its growth trajectory and experimented with new delivery formats including the addition of beds under REACH. REACH hospitals are essentially no-frills secondary care centres that provide quality care in semi-urban and rural areas. These are equipped to become higher secondary/tertiary centres (Madurai, for example, started as REACH but is now a tertiary set up) but typically benefit from lower operating costs and act as source of referrals for superspecialty hospitals in the metros. For instance, a REACH hospital may or may not have CTVS

Besides REACH, the company has been experimenting with other new formats, including day care centers and specialty clinics. Apollos sole day care center in Kolkata has had a successful pilot run and the company plans to roll out similar projects in other parts of the country. Specialty clinics too are at a pilot stage and being explored on a separate business unit basis. Currently most clinics are part of the hospital business. Apollo has around 100 clinics (across dialysis, cosmetic, wellness and sugar clinics), of which c50% is 100%-owned. Most clinics do not attract huge investments (less than INR10m) and are helpful in attracting out-patient volume.

Typically a REACH hospital will costs INR5-6m per bed, as against INR8-10m for a conventional tertiary care centre set up in a metro and will thrive on higher volume growth given less competition in rural townships. A REACH hospital is typically constructed on a land area of c1-2 acres. The Apollo REACH hospital in Karimnagar was the first such hospital in the country established on this model. The hospital performed open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and valve replacement surgeries within three months of its inauguration. Moreover, the hospital broke even in the second year of operation. Other REACH hospitals in the pipeline include those at Ayanambakkam (Chennai), Nashik, Nellore and Trichy. The company plans to expand this model to most semi-urban/rural areas in the country and has identified a number of second and third tier cities which currently lack penetration but have sizeable markets. Apollo has guided that it plans to establish about 100 more REACH hospitals over the next 10-15 years. In the ongoing first phase of the REACH program, it plans to open 25 hospitals over two years. A cookie-cutter model with a timeline of 18-24 months from land procurement to start of operations has been adopted for a speedy roll out.

Retail pharmacy at inflection point


Largest player in organized pharmacy
Apollo is the largest player in the organized pharmacy retail market with 1,364 stores as of 4QFY12. Total revenues from retail pharmacy grew 31% in FY12 to INR8.6bn with the operating margin improving by 150bp to 1.9%. Organized pharmacy in India is a miniscule 3% of the total pharmacy industry. Major players include Apollo, Medplus, Guardian, Medicine Shoppe, Dial for Health and Fortis Healthworld. There are over 650,000 pharmacies in the country, of which only 20,000 form part of organized retail. Even though the absolute number of dispensing outlets is high, we think the company has the opportunity to increase its share of organized pharmacy outlets within the industry in line with its increased share in transaction volume. Additionally, the distribution network and footfall attracted by stores can be leveraged to market and sell non-pharmaceutical products. Apollos typical store size is c300-350 sq ft and carries a range of products from medicines and surgical products to personal care and wellness offerings. Personal care and wellness products include cosmetics, skin care, fragrances, vitamins and hair care products. Typically a retail pharmacy store takes about 4-5 years to mature and around 12 months to break even at the EBITDA level. As of FY12, the company had 298 stores that would be classified as mature, having been opened prior to 2008. The mature stores have an operating margin of 5.7% in FY12, with revenue per store growing 14.3% to INR9.6m.

Apollo added 81 stores and closed seven for a net addition of 74 stores in 4QFY12. Total net stores added in FY12 were 165. We expect margin improvement to be gradual in this business given the company is in expansion mode and expects to maintain the current trend of adding 35-40 stores per quarter. We believe as the proportion of mature stores increase, margins will improve in this business. In the near term, the focus will be on improving the mix of consumables with an increasing proportion of private label and wellness products.

Increase in share of private label products to drive margins


Apollo plans to increase proportion of private label product revenue from 4% to over 12-15% in the next 1-2 years (with an ideal target of c20%). This will raise operating margins to 8-10% from the current 5% in mature stores. The company has plans to sell a stake in the business and has been on the lookout for a strategic partner. We believe the potential unlocking of value will be beneficial in terms of providing funds to the core hospital business. Rollout of GST (Goods and Services Tax) and easing of FDI norms in retail could give this segment a sharp boost.

clinics with an additional 35 under implementation. These clinics provide basic and advanced consultation and diagnostic tests. All clinics have a 24-hour pharmacy as well.

Balance sheet is healthy


Working capital cycle has been low given the high proportion of out-of-pocket expenditure. Because a large part of its business is conducted in cash with immediate payment, average account receivables are low. Inventories are essentially on account of standalone pharmacies. Debt to equity at the end of FY12 was 0.34x and is expected to remain at this level or go lower on the back of an equity infusion through warrant conversion. The company recently did a QIP (Qualified Institutional Placement) through which it raised cINR3.3bn. Additionally, conversion of 3.08m warrants in FY12 brought in required funds to meet near-term capital requirements. The company has an additional 3.27m warrants with conversion price of INR472.46. We have assumed conversion of these warrants in our model in FY13 (given they expire on 4 August 2012) and accounted for equity dilution (c2.4%).

Earnings CAGR over 20%


We expect c22% sales CAGR over FY12-15e driven by c25% growth in hospital revenues and c20% growth in pharmacy. EBITDA CAGR over the same period is projected at c23%. We expect near-term margins to improve, albeit only slightly (c50bp over FY12-14e) on the back of an improving case mix in mature hospitals resulting in higher ARPOBs, improving ALOS and the addition of new beds with over three years of maturity. We expect mature beds to show better operating performance through improved asset utilization. Additionally, we expect the pharmacy business to show gradual improvement in margins with increasing share of mature stores.

Key downside risks


Increased competition in key clusters Chennai and Hyderabad constitute 19% and 16% of total self-owned beds and are markets with higher share of revenues. Higher supply of beds in these regions is a concern and could impact occupancy and pricing in these markets. Execution delays Delays in planned additions of beds can impact growth forecasts and could be significant in regions that attract higher ARPOBs. Higher costs Acquisition of new land, even if leased, can turn costlier with multiple brands looking for new locations. Additionally, rising property prices can increase overall costs including development and construction. Recruitment and retention of trained skilled personnel Given the scarcity of quality resources this is a potential risk in healthcare delivery with the competition hunting for similar talent. Changes in taxation laws Hospitals currently enjoy 150% depreciation under section 35D and section 11b of 80I. Changes in certain benefits could have an adverse impact on cash flows.

While aggressive bed additions and investments in the pharmacy business have resulted in muted return ratios with ROE at c10%, we expect ROE to improve to 13% by FY14e driven by higher contribution from mature hospitals and scale-up in pharmacy margins.

Indexed performance of Apollo vs. Sensex

300 250 200 150 100 50 0 Jul-07 Jul-10 Jul-12 Jul-11 Jul-08 Jul-09

Over the last five years, the stock has traded at a 1year forward EV/EBITDA of 10.5x. On a PE basis the stock is trading at 31.6x FY13e and 23.2x FY14e EPS estimates. This is a significant premium over the last five-year average PE of 20.8x. We use DCF as an alternative valuation yardstick. Assuming cost of equity of 10.5%, interim growth between FY15e and FY20e of 15% and a FCF exit multiple of 15x, we arrive at a target price of INR740. We believe the current share price largely reflects the valuation of its hospital business and announced pipeline of beds. A potential tie-up or divestment in the pharmacy business and continued momentum in bed addition could drive significant upside.

Initiate as OW, TP of INR796


We initiate with OW on Apollo Hospitals and value it on a SOTP basis. We value the hospital business at 14x FY14 EBITDA (in line with current valuations and sector average for past one year) and pharmacy at 0.5x sales to arrive at an implied equity value of INR796. Under our research model, for stocks without a volatility indicator, the Neutral band is 5ppts above and below the hurdle rate for Indian stocks of 11%. Our target price implies a potential return of 23% (including forecast dividend), above the Neutral band; therefore, we are initiating with an OW rating. Potential return equals the percentage difference between the current share price and the target price, including the forecast dividend yield when indicated.

Fortis Healthcare (FORH)


Second largest healthcare chain and largest diagnostic player,

with significant footprint outside India as well Inorganic growth spurt, but accompanied by high leverage and lower return ratios Initiate coverage with N and a TP of INR115; margin recovery in diagnostic business, listing of REIT would be key catalysts

Pan-Asia branding
Over the last decade Fortis has emerged as a serious contender in Indias healthcare services market, pursuing strong organic as well as inorganic growth models. The companys acquisition of Escorts, Malar and Wockhardt hospitals and more recently assets under Fortis Healthcare International has created a significant pan-Asia presence. With a total of over 12,000 beds (including 4,000 under construction) across 75 hospitals, Fortis is on the brink of a growth spurt. International business is a new challenge and has come at the cost of increasing leverage. India business remains a key driver: FY12 India hospital business growth of 30% was driven by improving operating metrics at mature hospitals and improving integration of hospitals acquired from Wockhardt. The company has a plan to add 3,000 beds (most of which on an asset-light model) by the end of FY15. We expect an improving specialty mix and patient referral support from the diagnostic business under Super Religare Laboratories (SRL) to improve profitability and volume in long run. We forecast a 15% CAGR in sales for FY12-15e in the India hospital business. Overseas business - a new frontier: Given its business outside India is new and has few

comparables, we assume modest growth assumptions in the near term. We expect the revenue contribution from international business to remain at 50% over FY13-15 driven by double-digit growth in Dental Corp and Hoan My. Additionally, the commencement of a specialty colorectal hospital in Singapore is a near-term trigger. Balance sheet health coupled with muted margin expansion a concern: From a net cash position following the sale of Parkway to 1.5x leverage after the acquisition of international assets, the balance sheet has seen significant change. Although the acquisition was priced at book, the sharp growth in intangible assets is a worry. Additionally, margin expansion under SRL has been slower than expected. Initiate with N, TP: We initiate with a Neutral rating and a SOTP-based target price of INR115 (valuing the India business at 14x EV/EBITDA for the international business at 12x EV/EBITDA). Key downside risks include a delay in the execution of key projects and risks associated with the integration of acquired facilities. Upside risks would be sooner than expected recovery of margins in SRL diagnostic business and inflow of target capital through planned listing of clinical establishment of REIT.

Pan-Asia focus
Fortis Healthcare was incorporated in 1996 and started its operations in 2001 with the commencement of Fortis Mohali. Fortis is now the second largest healthcare chain in India with a two-pronged organic and inorganic growth strategy. The company has 68 hospitals in India of which 23 are 100%-owned, 30 managed and 15 under development with a total of 12,000 beds (including self-owned, managed and project beds). The group had 2,982 operational selfowned beds as at end FY12. Additionally, the company is working on 15 green or brown field projects with a total of more than 3,100 beds. The group has seen significant growth driven by acquisitions in the past. The recent acquisition of international assets has elevated the Fortis brand to a pan-Asia level.

Inorganic expansion of bed capacity


Over the last 10 years, Fortis has increased bed capacity by 50% through acquisitions. The idea behind these acquisitions was to ramp up capacity by acquiring mature assets rather than wait for greenfield set ups, which tend to have a long gestation period, to mature. For more details regarding acquisitions, refer to the exhibit below.

The company has planned capacity additions of 3,165 beds by FY15. Of this increase, Fortis plans to add 1,700 beds by FY14 through greenfield projects. A large part of the pipeline (c75%) is being developed under an asset-light model. This assetlight model is more prudent in view of rising real costs mainly in metros and Tier I cities. In a traditional hospital model, which is asset heavy, a company purchases land and builds hospital building, which together usually account for 6570% of total project cost. In the asset light model, a company identifies a property, refurbishes it and invests in medical and other equipments for it and

manages it as its own hospital. The original landowners develop the infrastructure and hospital pays fixed lease rent to the owner for use of the property. In this way, land and building cost is removed from the companys balance sheet which automatically improves return ratios. Note that the peak ROE for a typical 200 bed facility is 39% in an asset light model, versus 20% in a traditional model.

New hospitals - Fortis, Shalimar Bagh, Anandpur, Kolkata, Moradabad, Alwar: Fortis Shalimar Bagh was commissioned in September 2010 and began with 88 beds. The hospital has now scaled up operations and is on the way to joining the leagues of bigger hospitals with a greater focus on centres of excellence. Alwar is a 100-bed facility with a plan to expand to 150 beds. The hospital was added to the network as part of a reverse O&M (operations and maintenance) arrangement whereby large investments in the facility are made in partnership with an associate. Fortis, in turn, makes payment to the partner over the term of the agreement. This mode of engagement is a logical extension and key component of Fortis asset light model.

Diagnostic business
The diagnostics service sector in India accounts for c2% of the healthcare services market with an estimated market size of cUSD2bn. This market is expected to grow to a USD5.6-6bn market by 2015 at a CAGR of 32%. Currently, the diagnostic market in India is highly unorganized; organized players have a market share of only 9%, while the top-three corporate diagnostic service providers account for an 80% market share.

The rationale behind the acquisition was to become an integrated player with a presence in all major areas of medical services. With its pan-India geographical coverage, strong talent pool, well established brand and strong logistics, SRL has strong synergies with Fortiss hospital business. SRL currently offers 3,300 tests including 1,900 routine tests and 2,300 specialized and esoteric tests out of a range of 5,500 tests. SRL has wide pan-India presence as apparent from the exhibit below. SRL had earlier bought a diagnostic business from Piramal for INR6bn in August 2010. Through Piramal Diagnostics, SRL offers a range of pathology and radiology services including CAT (computerized tomography), X-ray, MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), ultrasound and PET (positron emission tomography). Piramal Diagnostics had sales of INR2.1bn in FY10. The deal was priced at c3x sales. Fortis recently announced that its SRL chain has signed agreements with high quality investment partners NYLIM Jacob Ballas India Fund III LLC (NJBIF) and International Finance Corporation (IFC). As per announcement, NJBIF and IFC will invest INR2.5bn and INR1.2bn, respectively, via compulsorily convertible preference shares (CCPS). The conversion of the CCPS will be in a price band of INR201-220, after which Fortis will continue to hold a 55-56% equity stake in SRL. This is the third round of private equity infusion in the company after Avigo Capital Partners and Sabre Partners. The

majority of these funds will go towards repayment of debt.

Sales growth on consolidation


We forecast a c33% CAGR in sales over FY1215e. FY13e sales are expected to grow 80% on the back of the consolidation of international revenues. 4QFY12 was the first quarter when international revenues were consolidated and sales were up by 208% y-o-y. The India hospital business is expected to show continued momentum on the back of the addition of new beds in areas like Gurgaon, Ludhiana, and Pune. With improving case mix and increasing investment in technology, we expect Fortis to benefit in terms of improving ARPOBs and occupancy in key hospitals. We forecast c15% sales CAGR in hospital revenues in India over FY13-15e. This is on the back of modest growth assumptions in SRL given the slow scale-up and lower pricing differential. International business is a new area for Fortis but is already sizeable at 50% of total sales. We have forecast double-digit growth in most entities with

growing contributions from Dental Corporation and Hoan My. We have not yet factored Fortis Colorectal Singapore hospital into our model.

Margins to gradually scale up


We forecast overall margins to expand 130bp over FY12-15e on the back of improving ARPOBs in key hospitals and breakeven in newly added beds. We assume an over 250bp margin improvement at the EBITDA level in the India hospital business alone. Additionally, we have assumed diagnostic business under SRL to report double-digit margins over FY13-15e reaching 11.2% in FY15e. We have assumed a 50bp margin improvement annually in the international business as well driven by cost integration and operating synergies.

REIT listing to reduce debt
Fortis is planning to raise funds via the listing of a REIT entity, called Fortis Religare Health Trust, in Singapore. The company obtained approval from the Singapore Stock Exchange (SGX) on 24 May 2012 to go ahead with the listing. Religare Health Trust spins off certain non-core areas such as out-patient departments, existing and upcoming hospital buildings and radiology divisions. It will be the first REIT of its kind. After the de-merger, Fortis Healthcare will be left with in-patient departments, intensive care units (ICUs), operating theatres and emergency services, which constitute its core operations. REITs operate under the principles of a closeended mutual fund and like mutual funds collect money from investors for deployment into defined areas of investments. Under this structure, Fortis will transfer ownership of 12 key existing hospital buildings and 2 new planned to the trust and pay lease to the trust. The rent collected from these properties is paid as a dividend to shareholders. Under normal circumstances, the entity is listed within 90 days of the approval. The company expects the infusion of USD362.5m (cINR20bn) from this listing; if successful, could reduce its debt burden by c45%.Outside healthcare, the other known Indian company to spin off a REIT is

Key downside risks


Higher component of inorganic growth: Given large contribution of acquisitions, we believe the company has less success with organic growth. Given low execution capabilities, future growth may miss expectations. Additionally, the larger the number and size of acquisitions, the higher are

60

Healthcare Hospitals 9 July 2012

abc

the challenges and complexities with integration of assets. International sales come with higher foreign currency costs: International footprint comes at higher costs and is currently at a low 12% at EBITDA margin level. While margins may improve a bit on the back of successful integration we believe synergies are limited given the different nature of businesses. Additionally, Fortis has relatively little experience with international markets and growth assumptions are based on limited knowledge of these businesses and markets. Resource availability remains a challenge: Fortis has more doctors on its payroll than Apollo, but is still constrained by the shortage of medical talent in India. Future resource availability is a key risk for private players and is tied to government policy decisions on human resource management in healthcare.

and is structurally different. We value the India business at 14x EBITDA (in line with the sector average) and the international business at a 12x EBITDA. Under our research model, for stocks without a volatility indicator, the Neutral band is 5ppts above and below the hurdle rate for Indian stocks of 11%. Our target price implies a potential return of 6.5% (including forecast dividend), above the Neutral band; therefore, we are initiating with a N rating. Potential return equals the percentage difference between the current share price and the target price, including the forecast dividend yield when indicated. The stock is currently trading at EV/EBITDA of 12.9x FY13e and 11.3x FY14e.

Key upside risks


Faster recovery in margins in SRL diagnostic business: We have currently built 50bp margin improvement annually in the SRL business. Faster improvement in margins could be a potential catalyst. Capital infusion through REIT listing: We believe this is a material upside risk as it could bring in much needed cash for further expansion and reduce interest burden. Commencement of operations at Fortis colorectal hospital: We have not factored any upside from this entity in our model. This hospital is unique and is expected to generate significant ARPOBs.

We use DCF as an alternative valuation methodology, assuming a weighted average cost of capital of 9% (cost of equity of c13.8%, after tax cost of debt at 5.8%). We use a higher equity risk premium relative to Apollo given the managements relative lower experience in execution. We have assumed a terminal growth rate of 3.5%. Our DCF derived 12-month target price is INR107.

Initiate as N, TP INR115
We value Fortis on a sum-of-the-parts basis. While the India business has comparables (primarily Apollo), the international business comprises a relatively diverse range of businesses

Key metrics overview


Healthcare expenditure is a common macro tool that allows

comparison across countries


Operating parameters including in-patient admissions and out-

patient visits are a benchmark for volume growth


ARPOB, ALOS and occupancy are often determined by case

specialty mix and nature of treatment service rendered

Basic operating metrics


In-patient admissions (IPA) Admissions refer to the total number of patients admitted in the facility and is used as a measure of in-patient volume. Patient days is another volume metric that refers to total number of days of care provided to in-patients. Patient days can be adjusted (like admissions) to reflect out-patient visits. Out-patient visits (OPV) Out-patient visits refer to hospital visits by a patient who doesnt remain in the hospital for overnight care and includes emergency room visits, out-patient surgeries (day-care surgeries) and observation services. Recent surgical advances have led to more day-care surgeries at the expense of admissions. Equally important, there have been advances in anaesthesia, which have led to faster recovery post surgery. Profit per out-patient visit is calculated by deducting out-patient operating expenses from out-patient revenue and dividing resulting amount by total visits. Low values are essentially a factor of high costs. Most hospitals however focus on improving out-patient to in-patient conversion

ratio than improving profitability in out-patient visits alone.

(Out-patient revenue outpatient operating expenses) / Total Visits

Adjusted admissions The adjusted admission is a commonly used statistic in the industry. It attempts to capture in-patient admissions and outpatient visits. It is calculated by multiplying admissions by sum of gross in-patient and outpatient revenues and then dividing the resulting amount by gross in-patient revenues. The equation assumes similar aggregate pricing trends among in-patient and out-patient procedures.

Pricing Per patient revenue is calculated by dividing net revenue by adjusted admission and is a good indicator of pricing. It is not a pure indicator however, given per patient revenue can increase as a result of severe nature of admissions requiring costly procedures while the base pricing remains same. Average revenue per operating bed (ARPOB) is another good indicator of improving pricing which could be due to improvement in case mix, better technology resulting in charging premium over competitors and/or established monopoly in a region.

This metric is often adjusted for difference in case mix that a hospital receives. The adjustment is done by dividing the above result by case mix index. The hospital with a higher case mix index treats more cases with complex diagnoses which would be expected to have higher LOS. This adjustment removes biases thus created.

The above formula may be adjusted to include out-patient revenue as well. Apollo Hospitals include hospital-based pharmacy revenue as well in ARPOB calculation. Average Length of Stay (ALOS) This is simply the average number of days a patient is in a hospital and is a good indicator of utilization and clinical management. Most hospitals attempt to reduce ALOS and increase turnover per bed. Increasing ALOS is not necessarily bad either. Increasing ALOS could show the hospital is treating higher acuity patients who require a longer stay in hospital to recuperate.

Occupancy is calculated by dividing average daily number of patient days by weighted average of beds in service in the period. This is a purely inpatient only metric. Most hospitals mature hospitals operate at c80% occupancy. It would be ideal to have 100% occupancy, which would mean all beds will be occupied all the time over a period. To increase occupancy, hospital can: 1) increase admissions, which are a factor of in-patient volume or out-patient visits conversion; 2) increase average length of stay (not preferred, as this impacts profitability); or 3) reduce number of beds.

Differentiation among hospitals


By complexity of care
Primary Care First point of consultation for most patients and most accessible. Primary care hospital offer basic point of contact medical services and healthcare prevention services in an out patient setting. They usually do not have operation theatres or ICUs (intensive care units). Secondary Care Range of services expands to complex procedures including surgical and diagnostic capabilities. It also includes services related to childbirth, intensive care and medical imaging. Typically a hospital will have one central laboratory, radiology and imaging center, emergency care and beds reserved for ICUs. Secondary hospitals may also cater to specialist needs and offer higher proportion of beds towards specialty care. Tertiary Care Specialized consultative healthcare usually a part of referral from primary or secondary source. A tertiary care hospital provides a full range of basic and sophisticated diagnostic treatment services including many specialized services. Examples include cancer management, neurosurgery, cardiac surgery, plastic surgery, burns care, and neonatal care. Quaternary Care Extension of tertiary care to highly specialized services that are not widely accessed. A quaternary hospital provides subspecialty services, such as advanced trauma and transplantation. The above distinctions however are often blurred, as many hospitals tend to expand their scope of services over time.

provide services free of charge and operate on a budget. They are also referred to as not for profit hospitals. The term however is misleading as it is not the case that public hospitals do not make profits. Private sector hospitals are run by trust, charity and religious organizations. Though they typically do not have objective to earn profits, the sub-class of specialized large-sized, single-multi specialty hospitals that offer high technology and superior quality often are for profit earning and are run by professional management.

By location
Urban hospitals are located in metro cities. The strategy in urban market is to occupying cluster of facilities in major towns/cities, rationalize the services and negotiate the provider arrangements with local payors to increase market share. The idea is to attract incremental volumes from weak local competitors. The majority of market share gains are driven by capital improvements, physician retention and recruiting and delivering quality care. Rural hospitals tend to be the sole providers of care in such areas. Typically a rural hospital will focus on providing low acuity primary and secondary care and refer patients to a large hospital in nearby town for higher tertiary care needs. Non urban hospitals are typically smaller, face limited competition, have a lower cost structure and much lower share of high income/insured patients. Currently the focus for most players is to attract large volumes from rural market and obtain new referrals for tertiary care hospitals in urban setting. Nonetheless, many rural hospitals are able to offer a breadth of services including common cardiac procedures including bypass surgeries.

By provider of care
Public sector hospitals include those which are government managed, city administered and community supported. These typically would

Budget 2012-13 highlights


Deduction in respect of capital expenditure on specified business
As per the recent Union Budget, it is proposed that the following specified businesses commencing operations on or after the 1 April, 2012 shall be allowed a deduction of 150% of the capital expenditure under section 35AD of the Income-tax Act, namely: Setting up and operating a cold chain facility Setting up and operating a warehousing facility for storage of agricultural produce Building and operating, anywhere in India, a hospital with at least one hundred beds for patients; Developing and building a housing project under a scheme for affordable housing framed by the Central Government or a State Government, as the case may be, and notified by the Board in this behalf in accordance with the guidelines as may be prescribed; and Production of fertilizer in India. This amendment will take effect from 1 April 2013 and will, accordingly, apply in relation to the assessment year 2013-14 and subsequent assessment years.

Mantri Swasthya Suraksha Yojana (PMSSY) is aimed at setting up of AIIMS-like institutions and upgradation of existing government medical colleges to enhance the availability of affordable tertiary health care in the country.

Healthcare in 12th Five-year Plan


The Planning Commission recently approved a health ministry proposal to increase the allocation on public health to INR4.04trn in the 12th Plan starting 1 April 2012, from INR709bn in the preceding five-year period. Given that health is a state subject, the ministry has suggested that twothirds of the expenditure on public health be borne by the state governments. Some of the key proposals are as follows: The 11th Five-Year Plan (2007-2011) aimed to raise share of public expenditure on health from less than 1% of GDP in FY06 to 2-3% of GDP over the planned period. By the end of 11th Five-Year Plan, it is estimated that public health expenditure has reached 1.4% of GDP, falling behind the target. By the end of 12th Five-Year Plan, public health expenditure is expected to grow to 2.5% of total GDP. The National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) was launched in 2005 aimed at strengthening the healthcare expenditure in rural areas; NRHM was mainly focussed on child birth and pre-natal care. Under the 12th Five-Year Plan, NRHM is expanded to cover broader range of conditions, including both preventative and curative services. The 12th Five-Year Plan is prioritising convergence among all the existing National Health Programs under the NRHM umbrella, namely those for mental health, AIDS control, deafness control, cancer control, cardio

Increase in allocation under NRHM


Government of India has resolved to launch the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) to carry out necessary architectural correction in the basic health care delivery system. It aims at mainstreaming the Indian systems of medicine to facilitate health care. The allocation towards this mission has been increased from INR181.2bn to INR208.2bn in 2012-13. Additionally, National Urban Health Mission is being launched to encompass the primary healthcare needs of people in the urban areas. The Pradhan

vascular diseases, oral health, elderly care, tobacco control, human rabies control, leptopirosis and information, education and communication The 12th Five-Year Plan aims to increase teaching institutions for doctors, nurses and paramedics to fill the gap between existing and required human resources; it proposes to develop each of the district hospitals into knowledge centres, and community health centres (CHCs) into training institutions. To ameliorate shortage of healthcare professionals in rural areas, vacancies are filled through Plan schemes. Several experimental projects are in operations to allow private sector participation in public financing of healthcare. The Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) is one such program, which provides health insurance scheme to poor groups for a nominal registration fees and the central government and the state governments share the insurance premium.

Important disclosures
Stock ratings and basis for financial analysis

HSBC believes that investors utilise various disciplines and investment horizons when making investment decisions, which depend largely on individual circumstances such as the investor's existing holdings, risk tolerance and other considerations. Given these differences, HSBC has two principal aims in its equity research: 1) to identify long-term investment opportunities based on particular themes or ideas that may affect the future earnings or cash flows of companies on a 12 month time horizon; and 2) from time to time to identify short-term investment opportunities that are derived from fundamental, quantitative, technical or event-driven techniques on a 0-3 month time horizon and which may differ from our long-term investment rating. HSBC has assigned ratings for its long-term investment opportunities as described below. This report addresses only the long-term investment opportunities of the companies referred to in the report. As and when HSBC publishes a short-term trading idea the stocks to which these relate are identified on the website at www.hsbcnet.com/research. Details of these short-term investment opportunities can be found under the Reports section of this website. HSBC believes an investor's decision to buy or sell a stock should depend on individual circumstances such as the investor's existing holdings and other considerations. Different securities firms use a variety of ratings terms as well as different rating systems to describe their recommendations. Investors should carefully read the definitions of the ratings used in each research report. In addition, because research reports contain more complete information concerning the analysts' views, investors should carefully read the entire research report and should not infer its contents from the rating. In any case, ratings should not be used or relied on in isolation as investment advice.

Rating definitions for long-term investment opportunities


Stock ratings

HSBC assigns ratings to its stocks in this sector on the following basis: For each stock we set a required rate of return calculated from the cost of equity for that stocks domestic or, as appropriate, regional market established by our strategy team. The price target for a stock represents the value the analyst expects the stock to reach over our performance horizon. The performance horizon is 12 months. For a stock to be classified as Overweight, the potential return, which equals the percentage difference between the current share price and the target price, including the forecast dividend yield when indicated, must exceed the required return by at least 5 percentage points over the next 12 months (or 10 percentage points for a stock classified as Volatile*). For a stock to be classified as Underweight, the stock must be expected to underperform its required return by at least 5 percentage points over the next 12 months (or 10 percentage points for a stock classified as Volatile*). Stocks between these bands are classified as Neutral. Our ratings are re-calibrated against these bands at the time of any 'material change' (initiation of coverage, change of volatility status or change in price target). Notwithstanding this, and although ratings are subject to ongoing management review, expected returns will be permitted to move outside the bands as a result of normal share price fluctuations without necessarily triggering a rating change.

*A stock will be classified as volatile if its historical volatility has exceeded 40%, if the stock has been listed for less than 12 months (unless it is in an industry or sector where volatility is low) or if the analyst expects significant volatility. However, stocks which we do not consider volatile may in fact also behave in such a way. Historical volatility is defined as the past month's average of the daily 365-day moving average volatilities. In order to avoid misleadingly frequent changes in rating, however, volatility has to move 2.5 percentage points past the 40% benchmark in either direction for a stock's status to change.

Rating distribution for long-term investment opportunities


As of 06 July 2012, the distribution of all ratings published is as follows: Overweight (Buy) 50% (26% of these provided with Investment Banking Services) Neutral (Hold) Underweight (Sell) 37% 13% (26% of these provided with Investment Banking Services) (17% of these provided with Investment Banking Services)
