Summary · why it matters

EKH or Ekachai Medical Care Public Company Limited expects its Q3/2026 performance to grow both quarter-on-quarter and year-on-year, supported by seasonal factors and the COVID-19 outbreak driving higher patient numbers, resulting in bed occupancy rates reaching 70-80% in the first two months. Meanwhile, the company has opened Bloom Mental Wellness Hospital, a psychiatric hospital, for about one month, with around 10 patients admitted. The company targets first-year revenue of 30 million baht, down from the earlier expectation of 50-60 million baht, due to the opening being one quarter behind schedule. However, the impact on overall revenue targets is expected to be minimal. The company has also adjusted its strategy to increase the proportion of outpatient (OPD) revenue, as insurance companies have become stricter in approving inpatient (IPD) cases. It expects 2026 revenue to grow 8-10% from the previous year, with the second half performing better than the first half.
