Senevita in Switzerland has been consolidated since 1 April 2014, Silver Care in Germany since 1 July 2014, SeneCura in Austria since 1 April 2015, and Celenus Kliniken in Germany since 1 July 2015.

Commenting on these figures, Yves Le Masne, ORPEA’s Chief Executive Officer, said: “We achieved another strong top-line increase in the third quarter of 2015, with our revenues growing 18.2% to €620.2 million. Thanks to the strong expansion momentum we have maintained for several years, our revenues are now double the level they were at just four years ago in the third quarter of 2011.

This impressive quarterly performance reflected our longstanding strategy of value creation built on:

  • solid organic growth of 5.0%, resulting from both the appeal of historical facilities with high occupancy rates and the ramp-up in recently opened beds, especially in strategic locations, such as the prestigious 16th arrondissement of Paris and Ostend;
  • contribution from recently acquired foreign companies, notably Celenus Kliniken’s post-acute care, rehabilitation and psychiatric care facilities in Germany, and SeneCura in Austria.

International operations now contribute 35% of revenues, with close to 70% coming from German-speaking Europe – Germany, Switzerland and Austria.

Revenues in the first nine months of 2015 grew by 23.1% to €1,742.6 million, with organic growth running at 5.5%, notably led by the opening of 1,600 beds since the beginning of the year.

On the strength of our performance over the first nine months, openings scheduled in the fourth quarter and the additional contribution to come from Residenz Gruppe Bremen in the fourth quarter, we are confidently reiterating our full-year revenue guidance of €2,380 million. That would represent growth of 22.1% on 2014.”
