Lanka Hospitals issues interim dividend

Lanka Hospitals has sought to add to shareholder value by issuing an interim dividend of Rs. 1 per share. This amounts to a payment of 224 million.

The dividend was issued taking in to account the positive growth in Lanka Hospitals’ performance in the first nine months of this financial year. As of September 30, 2016, Lanka Hospitals has recorded a Group net profit of Rs. 625 million. “Lanka Hospitals has always shown great consistency in its performance. We are very happy with the results we have achieved thus far in this year.

 These results reflect healthy growth trends in almost all of the profit centres under the Lanka Hospitals umbrella.

Lanka Hospitals Diagnostics in particular must be noted for its outstanding performance,” enthused Dr. Sarath Paranavitane, Chairman Lanka Hospitals.

Lanka Hospitals has achieved many successes in the recent past which have all contributed to its enhanced profitability.

Most recently it has achieved MTQUA certification which recognises Lanka Hospitals as one among an elite group of global hospitals.

MTQUA certification holds huge weight among medical tourists, as it assures them of treatment, care and services on par with the best in the world.

Lanka Hospitals Diagnostics is the first reference laboratory to be set up in Sri Lanka and is ISO 15189:2007 certified.
