Fortis Healthcare (FORH) Q4FY23 adjusted EBIDTA for one offs (Rs115mn) was 9% below our estimate, led by lower profitability in diagnostic segment. Though margins across segments in Q4 were below our estimates, we remain positive on margin improvement in hospital segment aided by 1) improving case and payor mix 2) cost rationalization initiatives and 3) traction in international patient’s footfall.
