Aurelia Healthcare – Business Plan
Investment-grade business plan for Aurelia Healthcare Holdings (Pty) Ltd — a USD 240-million hybrid raise (AfDB-led) to build an integrated tertiary and quaternary specialist hospital platform in South Africa, scaling revenue from USD 12 million to USD 215 million by Year 5 (USD 461 million at stabilization) at a base-case 19.4% equity IRR and a 4.7× money multiple.
Confidential Business Plan
Aurelia Healthcare
An integrated tertiary and quaternary specialist hospital platform for South Africa — anchored by Aurelia Medical City in Johannesburg and built out across regional specialist hospitals into a full healthcare ecosystem, clinically-led and purpose-built for the post-NHI, development-finance environment — structured as an investment-grade USD 240-million hybrid opportunity for the African Development Bank, co-financiers, senior lenders and equity partners.
South Africa hosts the most sophisticated private healthcare ecosystem on the continent, yet three listed operators — Netcare, Mediclinic and Life Healthcare — control roughly 83% of private hospital beds and 90% of admissions, leaving room for a clinically-led, capital-efficient and technology-forward challenger purpose-built for the post-NHI, development-finance era. Aurelia captures this with an integrated specialist hospital platform — Aurelia Medical City in Johannesburg, then regional hospitals and a full healthcare ecosystem — scaling from 420 to 870 beds and from USD 12 million to USD 215 million of revenue by Year 5 (USD 461 million and a 34% EBITDA margin at stabilization). A USD 240-million hybrid raise led by the African Development Bank delivers a base-case 19.4% equity IRR and a 4.7× money multiple, with a JSE main-board IPO as the preferred exit.
