Revenue of PureHealth soars to Dh13.6 billion in the first half, with a net profit of Dh1.03 billion.
In a recent financial report, PureHealth, the largest healthcare group in the Middle East, announced impressive growth and stable profitability for the second quarter of 2025. The company's revenue reached AED 6,993.03 million, a 9% increase compared to the same period last year, and net income slightly increased to AED 522.29 million.
PureHealth's growth was supported by expanded service offerings, increased specialist capacity, and growing demand across the SEHA and SSMC networks in the UAE. The company's focus on synergies, transformation of assets, and delivering better health outcomes within communities it operates has played a significant role in its success.
The company's operating model has been streamlined around two core verticals: Care and Cover. The Care vertical includes Hospitals, Procurement, Diagnostics, and Technology, while the Cover vertical covers the Group’s Insurance operations. This realignment aims to enhance PureHealth’s ability to provide coordinated, value-driven health services by aligning healthcare delivery with insurance offerings, thus optimizing operations across its ecosystem.
The Care vertical generated 72% of PureHealth's revenue in H1 2025, amounting to Dh9.8 billion, a 7% year-on-year increase. Growth in the Hospitals vertical was driven by a 13% increase in outpatient visits to 4.4 million and a 7% rise in inpatient visits to 108,000. Technology Services reported exceptional growth, with revenue increasing 170% year-on-year to Dh367 million, driven by the expansion of PureCS.
The Cover vertical, which includes the Group’s Insurance operations, continues to perform well. The Cover vertical revenue increased 14% year-on-year to Dh3.8 billion, supported by an 8% rise in Gross Written Premiums (GWP) to Dh4.9 billion. PureHealth's balance sheet remains strong, with a Net Debt to Ebitda ratio of 1.4x, providing the Group with ample flexibility for future M&A opportunities and organic growth initiatives.
In the UK, Circle Health, a part of the PureHealth Group, saw increased patient volumes and expanded capacity through the successful acquisition of Fairfield Independent Hospital. PureHealth's entry into the Property & Casualty segment through Daman strengthens its ability to offer comprehensive, multi-line coverage.
PureLab, the diagnostic arm of PureHealth, recorded a 19% year-on-year increase in total testing volume, reaching 16.9 million tests. The company is also investing in expanding specialized care and modernizing infrastructure, supporting continued growth in both Care and Cover segments.
Shaista Asif, Group Chief Executive Officer at PureHealth, commented on delivering solid growth in the first half of 2025 across both Care and Cover verticals. Kamal Al Maazmi, Chairman of PureHealth, stated the company's transformation aims to build a global, future-ready healthcare ecosystem.
For the first half of 2025, the group achieved AED 13.6 billion in revenue, up 9% year-on-year, and net profit of AED 1.03 billion, a 2% increase compared to H1 2024. The company's Ebitda rose 8% year-on-year to Dh2.3 billion in H1-2025.
