BLUEJET · Healthcare
Blue Jet Healthcare Ltd. reported revenue of ₹163 cr for April to June 2024, −9.4% on the year and −11.4% on the quarter.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹44.0 cr, a margin of 27.0%, −578 bps on the year and −181 bps on the quarter. Operating costs grew −1.7%, faster than revenue at −9.4%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹38.0 cr, −13.6% on the year and −5.0% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹2.18. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 24.5%, so 11 points of the headline growth came from outside the core business. The tax rate of 24% is in line with its recent average.
On earnings per share of ₹9.08 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹518.95 trades at 57.2 times trailing earnings.
