It has disciplined approach to acquisitions that has enabled it to maintain affordable

expanded clinical team in Secunderabad to provide heart and lung transplants in
addition to other organ transplant services. Further, it intends to offer organ
transplantation services in more hospitals in the future. It also aims to strengthen
oncology services by adding radiation and surgical services and introducing oncology
services at more hospitals. As demand for healthcare services in AP and Telangana
grows, KIMS will evaluate on increasing the bed capacity of existing hospitals.
It has sufficient capacity across its hospital network to add additional beds through

As mentioned in the RHP that in the next 4-5 years, KIMS capex plan is to add 1,000 beds. And the fact that capital cost for opening a hospital can be more than one crore/bed, we believe that this could impact on free cash flows and RoCE going forward. However, based on current strong occupancy rates of ~80%, growth in revenues and margins, and the leadership of Dr. Bhaskara Rao Bollineni, we recommend to subscribe the issue for listing gains. The IPO is valued at ~18x of EV/EBITDA of FY21.
