Inside information, profit warning: Pihlajalinna updates its guidance for 2025
Pihlajalinna is lowering its revenue outlook for 2025, primarily due to the
earlier-than-expected transfer of services to the wellbeing services county and
the divestment of special housing services. At the same time, Pihlajalinna
confirms its profitability guidance (adjusted EBITA) of at least EUR 65 million
(EUR 55.2 million in 2024).
In April, Pihlajalinna agreed on the earlier transfer of services provided by
Kuusiolinna Terveys to the South Ostrobothnia wellbeing services county. These
transfers will reduce the 2025 revenue by approximately EUR 10 million. All
services currently provided by Kuusiolinna Terveys will be fully transferred to
the responsibility of the wellbeing services county at the beginning of 2026.
Additionally, Pihlajalinna has today agreed to sell its special housing service
units to Esperi Care. The transaction concerns units located in Hämeenlinna,
Lohja, Riihimäki, and Raisio. The sale takes effect immediately. The combined
revenue of the units sold in 2024 was less than EUR 10 million.
Outlook for 2025, updated
In 2025, Pihlajalinna will focus on organic growth especially in Private
Healthcare Services, and continued improvement in profitability.
· The Group estimates the revenue to fall slightly below the previous year's
level (EUR 704.4 million in 2024), mainly due to the earlier transfer of
Kuusiolinna Terveys services to the South Ostrobothnia wellbeing services county
and the divestment of special housing services.
· The Group estimates the adjusted operating profit before the amortisation
and impairment of intangible assets (EBITA) increase to at least EUR 65 million
(EUR 55.2 million in 2024).
The Group estimates demand to remain stable. Slow economic growth may affect
Pihlajalinna's service demand and financial result more than expected.
