The issuer
Capitol Treasury Pty Ltd (the “Issuer”) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Capitol Health Limited (“Capitol”). Capitol operates in the defensive healthcare sector, providing community based (non-hospital/non-aligned) medical diagnostic imaging (DI) services, such as MRI’s. Capitol listed on the ASX in 2006 and has a current market capitalisation of $94m as at 20 April 2016.
Capitol is a large community based DI provider that operates through approximately 70 imaging clinics across Victoria and NSW.
The long term dynamics for the DI sector are strong, underpinned by a move to evidenced based preventative health care, for an increasingly aging population:
FY15 revenue and underlying EBITDA was $111.2m and $22.2m respectively. Based on Bloomberg equity consensus forecasts, FY16 revenue and EBITDA is estimated to increase to $154.0m and $22.9m respectively, translating to a forecast Net Debt / EBITDA of 3.7x at 30 June 2016.
The industry has relatively high barriers to entry largely driven by the capital costs required to establish a new business along with a limited number of MRI licences available to receive the full Medicare rebate.
In FY15, approximately 80% of Capitol’s revenue was derived from Medicare rebates. There is a reliance on the government policy, which is balanced against providing broad access to services and supporting an ageing population.
