Introduction
Â
i.   Financial Highlights
·     IDH recorded consolidated revenues of EGP 1,171 million in Q1 2024, up a robust 28% year-on-year from EGP 915 million. Sustained top-line growth continued to be driven by higher test volumes and average revenue per test, which increased 8% and 18% year-on-year, respectively.
·     Gross profit of EGP 428 million was recorded during the first quarter of the year, increasing 32% year-on-year from EGP 325 million in Q1 2023. In parallel, the Company's gross profit margin (GPM) stood at 37% in Q1 2024, up from 35% in the comparable period of the previous year. Increased gross profitability reflects the effectiveness of IDH's cost optimization efforts as well as the normalization of margins as the effects of the devaluation of the Egyptian Pound in 2022 and early 2023 begin to fade.
·     EBITDA6 amounted to EGP 330 million in Q1 2024, up from EGP 227 million one year prior and reflecting an increase of 45% year-on-year. IDH's EBITDA margin during the quarter came in at 28%, 3 points higher than the margin recorded in Q1 2023. Higher EBITDA profitability came on the back of increased gross profitability combined with lower SG&A outlays as a percentage of revenues as IDH continues to optimize its cost base and reduce expenses where possible. In addition to the Group's optimization efforts, it is important to highlight that outlays in the comparable period had been boosted by higher-than-usual salary increases and higher depreciation expenses to support the rollout of several new branches in IDH's network.
·     Net profit during Q1 2024 booked EGP 402 million, increasing a strong 139% year-on-year from the figure reported in Q1 2023. Meanwhile, the Net Profit Margin (NPM) stood at 34%, tangibly increasing from 18% in the same period of the previous year.
6 EBITDA is calculated as operating profit plus depreciation and amortization.
ii. Operational Highlights
·     IDH's branch network reached 587 branches at the end of Q1 2024, increasing by 11 branches compared to Q1 2023. Since Q1 2023, IDH has rolled out 26 new branches in its largest market Egypt, one in Jordan, and two inaugural branches in its newest geography, Saudi Arabia. It is important to mention that due to the ongoing conflict in Sudan, IDH reported the closure of its 18 branches in the country.
·     During the first quarter of the year, IDH performed 8.7 million tests across its geographies, increasing 8% year-on-year from 8.0 million tests in Q1 2023.
·     Meanwhile, average revenue per test stood at EGP 135 during Q1 2024, a 18% year-on-year increase. The growth in average revenue per test was driven by strategic price increases implemented by IDH to counteract inflationary pressures in its home and largest market, Egypt, as well as in Nigeria.
·     IDH served a total of 2.0 million patients during the first quarter of 2024, reflecting a 5% year-on-year increase. In parallel, IDH continued to record record-high average tests per patient, reaching 4.3 tests in Q1 2024. Continually increasing average tests per patient reflect the effectiveness of IDH's efforts to attract and retain patients while encouraging increased testing. Notably, IDH's loyalty programme, which was introduced in FY 2021 as part of the Company's post-pandemic growth strategy has continued boosting patient testing.
iii. Updates by Geography
·     In Egypt (84.5% of total revenues in Q1 2024), IDH recorded impressive growth during the first quarter of 2024, booking revenues of EGP 989 million and posting a 35% year-on-year increase. Top-line growth in IDH's largest market was primarily driven by increased average revenue per test, which grew 23% year-on-year to reach EGP 123. Secondarily, higher test volumes also supported revenue growth, with IDH conducting 8.0 million tests during the three-month period, a 10% year-on-year expansion.
·     IDH's Jordanian subsidiary (14.1% of total revenues in Q1 2024), Biolab, posted a 4% year-on-year decline in revenues, posting a top-line of JOD 3.2 million on the back of a 3% contraction in test volumes during Q1 2024 due to the effects of the unfolding geopolitical situation in the region temporarily weighing down results. Meanwhile, average revenue per test in Jordan remained relatively stable due to heavy pricing regulations in the country, recording only a marginal 1% year-on-year decline in Q1 2024. In EGP terms, Jordanian operations reported revenues of EGP 165 million, up 14% year-on-year due to the translation effect from a weakened EGP.
·     In Nigeria (1.3% of total revenues in Q1 2024), Echo-Lab recorded a 29% year-on-year growth in revenues in local currency terms, reaching NGN 602 million Naira in Q1 2024 on the back of a 65% year-on-year increase in average revenue per test. Test volumes in Nigeria stood at 56 thousand during the quarter, down 22% year-on-year due to ongoing inflationary pressures affecting patients' purchasing power. In EGP terms, revenues in Nigeria booked EGP 16 million, a 49% year-on-year decline, due to lower test volumes and average revenues per test as a result of the devaluation of the Nigerian Naira.
·     Biolab KSA, IDH's newest venture in Saudi Arabia (0.1% of total revenues in Q1 2024) commenced operations during Q1 2024, with one branch rolled out in January and another in March. The Company booked revenues of SAR 58 thousand in Q1 2024, on the back of 2 thousand tests performed and an average revenue per test of SAR 24. IDH continues to ramp up operations in the geography, running several targeted campaigns to attract patients. The Kingdom's branch network is expected to reach 6 branches by the end of the year, with the inauguration of an additional 4 branches. In EGP terms, Saudi operations posted a top line of EGP 677 thousand, with average revenues per test coming in at EGP 285 during the three-month period.
·     Finally, due to the ongoing conflict and unrest in the country, IDH has decided to cease all Sudanese operations, with the closure of all of IDH's 18 branches in Sudan.
iv. Management Commentary
Commenting on the Group's performance, IDH Chief Executive Officer Dr. Hend El-Sherbini said: "Reflecting back on the first quarter of 2024, I am pleased to report yet another robust set of results which have seen us deliver solid consolidated top-line expansion and improved profitability at all levels. This sustained growth trend continues to showcase the adaptability of IDH's business model in the face of economic and political challenges across our geographies and the potential of our business going forward.
During the three-month period, IDH successfully booked a 28% year-on-year expansion in revenue, driven by both higher test volumes and increased average revenue per test on the back of strategic price hikes implemented across several of our geographies. In addition to the impressive top-line growth, we recorded significant margin improvements throughout the entire income statement, reflecting an improving economic situation in our home market of Egypt as well as the effectiveness of our efforts to hedge against inflation and optimize costs where possible. As a result, IDH posted a remarkable 55% year-on-year growth in EBITDA, with an associated margin of 30%, when excluding contributions from our newest venture in Saudi Arabia which is currently in its early ramp up phase having officially launched in January of this year.
Looking at the performance of our individual markets, Egypt continued to contribute the lion share of our consolidated results throughout the quarter, with revenue posting a robust 35% increase versus the first three months of the previous year. This is a particularly noteworthy result which comes despite the anticipated slowdown in patient traffic associated with the holy month of Ramadan which this year began in the second week of March. During the quarter, we also rolled out 2 new branches across the country taking our total number of branches to 546. The steady expansion of our network not only continues to function as a primary barrier to entry for newer players looking to penetrate the diagnostics market but also ensures we are able to bring our world-class services to as many people as possible in line with our wider community impact goals. As part of our growth and diversification strategy, during the quarter we continued to drive rapid growth at our radiology venture, Al-Borg Scan, which is now contributing 5.1% of our Egyptian revenue up from 3.8% this time last year.
In Jordan, revenue in local currency terms slightly decreased compared to the first quarter of 2023, with the geopolitical instability in the region affecting international medical tourism to the country and weighing on test volumes for the three-month period. Meanwhile, in Nigeria we recorded revenue growth in local currency terms of 29% driven by higher average revenue per test. This comes as a direct result of our revenue mix optimisation strategy, which over the last two years has seen us pivot our test mix increasingly towards higher-priced tests, and by the annual price increases that we continue to introduce to counteract the effects of record-high inflation in the country. It is worth noting that the multiple devaluations of the Nigerian naira over the past two years and the removal of diesel subsidies have placed considerable pressure on our patients' purchasing power, leading to both decreased test volumes and lower revenues in EGP terms.
Turning to our newest geography, I am delighted to announce that operations in Saudi Arabia officially commenced during Q1 2024, with the rollout of two new branches in the Kingdom's capital, Riyadh. The geography, characterized by a young and growing population and by a fragmented diagnostics market, provides the perfect ingredients for our proven business model to succeed, and we are confident that KSA will quickly become an integral market of operation for IDH. During the quarter, as part of our multi-pronged go-to-market strategy we focused on building our brand presence through targeted marketing campaigns across a variety of mediums. These included outdoor advertising, social media campaigns, sponsorship of community events, as well as partnering with several local healthcare providers to increase brand awareness for Biolab KSA. By the end of 2024, we plan to inaugurate an additional four branches in the Kingdom and aim to capture a market share of 1% as we steadily expand our reach and widen our patient base.
Finally, it is with a heavy heart that I announce the complete halting of our operations in Sudan. We initially launched our Sudanese operations back in 2011 as part of our first international expansion phase, and the country along with our two Sudanese brands will always represent an important part of our corporate history. With this in mind, the ongoing civil war and escalating violence have unfortunately prevented us from continuing to operate in a manner that safeguards our patients and staff. As a result of this decision, Sudan, which in 2023 contributed to just 0.3% of our top line, has not contributed to our financial and operational results starting in January 2024.
Looking ahead, our strategy and priorities at home and across our footprint remain unchanged. In Egypt, we are beginning to see the early signs of a sustained economic recovery supported by the float of the EGP in March 2024 and the policy changes enacted by the government and central bank in recent months. As such, we expect volumes to continue growing steadily as inflation declines and patients' purchasing power improves. Elsewhere across our footprint, we are particularly excited to continue ramping up operations in Saudi Arabia and begin to realize our new market's full potential. In light of the strong results posted during the first quarter of the year, the economic recovery we are witnessing in our home market, and the positive policies set forth by the Egyptian government and central bank, we reaffirm our guidance of approximately 30% revenue growth in FY 2024. In terms of profitability, we expect to record an EBITDA margin around 30% during the year, excluding results from our newly inaugurated venture in Saudi Arabia and non-recurring expenses.
A few weeks ago, we also announced our proposal to delist from the Egyptian Exchange (EGX). While we had originally listed on the EGX in May 2021 in an effort to improve the liquidity of the Company's shares and give an opportunity to local investors to capitalise on IDH's strong growth prospects, we have since seen lower than expected liquidity and trading volumes on our EGX-listed shares. It is important to specify that this decision has no effects on our operations in Egypt and the remainder of our markets. Additionally, the decision in no way impacts our standard listing on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) where we remain fully committed to meeting all our disclosure requirements. As always, our first responsibility remains towards our patients and communities, and we look forward to continuing to deliver world-class quality to our growing patient base across Egypt, Jordan, Nigeria, and Saudi Arabia.

Revenue Analysis: Contribution by Geography Egypt (84.5% of Group revenue) IDH's home and largest market, Egypt, sustained the growth trend recorded started during the second half of 2023, posting robust year-on-year revenue growth of 35% to reach EGP 989 million in Q1 2024. Growth at the segment was driven by a 10% increase in test volumes as well as a 23% year-on-year growth in average revenue per test, as IDH continued to implement strategic price increases in the country. Al-Borg Scan IDH's fast-growing radiology venture, Al-Borg Scan, maintained its rapid expansion in the first three months of the year, booking solid revenue expansion of 81% year-on-year, to reach EGP 50 million in Q1 2024. To support this growth, Al-Borg Scan performed 60 thousand scans during the quarter, a 43% year-on-year rise. Meanwhile, average revenues per test stood at EGP 839, expanding 26% year-on-year. Al-Borg Scan continues to expand its operations through its network of 7 branches spread across the Greater Cairo area, positioning itself as a leader in the fragmented Egyptian radiology market. House Calls During Q1 2024, IDH's house call services continued its significant contribution to the country's results, constituting 17% of total revenues. This contribution sits comfortably above pre-pandemic average, highlighting the segment's growth potential and the effectiveness of the Group's post-pandemic growth strategy. Wayak Finally, IDH's Egypt-based subsidiary, Wayak, which seeks to utilize the Company's growing patient database to create electronic patient medical records and offer tailor-made services for its patients, completed 51 thousand orders in Q1 2024, an 28% year-on-year increase.

Jordan (14.1% of Group revenue in Q1 2024) In IDH's second largest market, Jordan, IDH booked revenues of JOD 3.2 million in Q1 2024, down 4% year-on-year. Declined revenues in the region were primarily driven by lower test volumes, which stood at 566 thousand tests during the period, a 3% year-on-year decline. Lower test volumes reflected the ongoing geopolitical situation in the region, with the most recent escalation in Gaza weighing down on operations in Jordan. In EGP terms, Jordanian operations booked a 14% year-on-year increase, booking EGP 165 million in Q1 2024. Higher revenues in EGP terms reflected an 18% year-on-year increase in average revenue per test, due to the translation effect from the devaluation of the Egyptian Pound over the past 12-month period.

Nigeria (1.3% of Group revenue in Q1 2024) Echo-Lab, IDH's Nigerian subsidiary, posted a 29% year-on-year increase in revenues in NGN terms during the first quarter of 2024, reaching NGN 602 million. Higher revenues in local currency terms were entirely driven by a 65% year-on-year increase in average revenues per test, which stood at NGN 11 thousand during Q1 2024. Meanwhile, test volumes were down 22% year-on-year compared to the same three-month period of 2023, recording 56 thousand tests due to the ongoing economic volatility in the country affecting patient purchasing power. In EGP terms, Echo-Lab booked EGP 16 million in revenues during Q1 2024, down 49% year-on-year. In addition to declining test volumes at the geography, average revenue per test declined to EGP 282 during the first three months of the year, reflecting the translation effect from multiple devaluations of the Naira over the past year. Saudi Arabia (0.1% of Group revenue in Q1 2024) IDH's newest geography, Saudi Arabia, officially commenced operations in Q1 2024 with the rollout of 2 Biolab KSA branches in the Kingdom's capital, Riyadh. One branch was inaugurated in January while the other opened in March 2024. The Kingdom is characterized by supportive demographics, a fast-growing economy, and a fragmented diagnostics market posing significant potential for IDH. This new venture aims to establish itself as a fully-fledged clinical pathology diagnostic services provider, with an extensive branch network covering the entire Kingdom. In its inaugural quarter, Biolab KSA posted revenues of SAR 58 thousand, performing 2 thousand tests and booking an average revenue per test of SAR 24. In EGP terms, Saudi operations yielded revenues of EGP 677 thousand with average revenues per test amounting to EGP 285 during Q1 2024. Sudan Due to the ongoing situation in Sudan, which started with the eruption of violent conflict in April 2023, IDH has decided to halt all operations in the country starting in Q1 2024. All 18 of IDH's branches in the country have now been indefinitely shut down. |

Cost of Goods Sold IDH booked cost of goods sold of EGP 742 million during the first quarter of the year, a 25.7% year-on-year increase. As a share of revenue, cost of goods sold constituted 63.4% in Q1 2024, down from 64.5% one year prior. Lower cost of goods sold as a share of revenue was primarily driven by decreased direct wages and salaries and depreciation expenses as a share of revenue. Cost of Goods sold Breakdown as a Percentage of Revenue
 Raw material costs (33% of consolidated cost of goods sold in Q1 2024) the largest contributor to cost of goods sold in Q1 2024, amounted to EGP 247 million, reflecting a 34% year-on-year increase. As a share of revenue, raw materials stood at 21% of revenue, up marginally from 20% in Q1 2023. Wages and salaries including employee share of profits (31% share of consolidated cost of goods sold) remained the second largest contributor to cost of goods sold during the quarter, recording EGP 230 million, a 21% year-on-year increase. As a share of revenue, however, direct wages and salaries stood at 19.6%, down from 20.7% in the same period of the previous year. Declining wages as a share of revenue are a direct reflection of the optimization of IDH's headcount compared to the previous year.  Direct Wages and Salaries by Region
 Direct depreciation and amortization costs (13% of consolidated cost of goods sold) reached EGP 100 million in Q1 2024, up 13% year-on-year. As a share of revenues, depreciation and amortization costs decreased by 1.1 points year-on-year to 8.6% during the three-month period. Higher depreciation costs reflect the expansion of IDH's branch network, including the rollout of 26 branches in Egypt as well as an additional Al-Borg Scan branch during the past 12 months. Other expenses (22% of consolidated cost of goods sold) amounted to EGP 165 million in Q1 2024, reflecting a 30% year-on-year increase. Other expenses remained relatively stable as a share of revenues, constituting 14% during both Q1 2024 and the comparable period of last year. Repair & maintenance fees, hospital contracts, and cleaning expenses remained the largest contributors to other expenses during the period. Gross Profit The Company booked a gross profit of EGP 428 million during the first three months of the year, recording a 32% year-on-year increase. Meanwhile, IDH's Gross Profit Margin (GPM) stood at 37%, up from 35% in Q1 2023. Increased gross profitability reflected the previously outlined decline in cost of goods sold as a share of revenues during the period, utilizing its fixed assets to decrease depreciation and optimizing its headcount to decrease direct salary expenses as a share of revenues. Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses SG&A outlays during Q1 2024 came in at EGP 208 million, up 6% year-on-year. As a share of revenues, SG&A constituted 18% in the first quarter of the year, down from 21% one year prior. Increased SG&A expenses in absolute terms were mainly driven by the following: ·     Higher indirect wages and salaries, which recorded EGP 79 million, a 15% year-on-year increase. Higher wages and salaries were represented annual wage increases as well as the translation effect from Jordanian salaries as a result of a weakened EGP. It is important to note, however, that indirect salaries and wages as a share of revenues declined to 6.8% during the quarter, compared to 7.5% in Q1 2023, due to the optimization of IDH's headcount across its operations. ·     Increased impairment loss on trade and other receivables, which booked a 63% year-on-year increase to reach EGP 17 million in Q1 2024, reflecting a conservative approach by management due to economic headwinds and increased inflation in its largest market, Egypt.  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
 EBITDA During Q1 2024, IDH booked an EBITDA8 of EGP 330 million, a 45% year-on-year increase reflecting the continued normalisation of costs throughout the past 12 months. In parallel, the EBITDA margin stood at 28% up from 25% in Q1 2023. It is important to note that EBITDA has been partially weighed down due to the recent ramp-up of operations in IDH's newest geography, Saudi Arabia. Accounting for Saudi operations, IDH would have recorded an EBITDA of EGP 352 million and yielded a margin of 30% during the quarter. EBITDA by Country In Egypt, IDH recorded an EBITDA of EGP 320 million in Q1 2024, up 61% year-on-year. The EBITDA margin booked 32%, up from 27% at the same time last year. Higher EBITDA profitability in the region reflected lower SG&A expenses, which declined 8% year-on-year due to lower advertisement and depreciation expenses. In Jordan, IDH's subsidiary, Biolab, posted an EBITDA of JOD 753 thousand in Q1 2024, down 10% year-on-year and yielding a margin of 23%, compared to 25% in Q1 2023. In EGP terms, EBITDA recorded 39 million, up 9% year-on-year and yielding a margin of 23%. The increase in EBITDA in EGP terms reflects the translation effect from the devaluation of the EGP during the past twelve months.  In Nigeria, continued economic downturns in the country, leading to increasing inflation, has affected IDH's cost base and led to a widening of EBITDA losses during the first quarter of the year. In Q1 2024, EBITDA losses recorded NGN 244 million, widening from NGN 121 million during the first quarter of 2023. In EGP terms, EBITDA losses stood at EGP 7 million in Q1 2024, narrowing from EGP 8 million one year prior. Narrowing EBITDA losses in EGP terms were due to the translation effect following the devaluation of the Nigerian Naira. In Saudi Arabia, EBITDA losses recorded SAR 2 million as the venture begins to ramp up its operations. Meanwhile, in EGP terms, EBITDA losses booked EGP 22 million.  Regional EBITDA in Local Currency
 8 EBITDA is calculated as operating profit plus depreciation and amortization. Interest Income / Expense IDH's interest income recorded EGP 25 million, increasing considerably from EGP 15 million in Q1 2023. Higher interest income during the quarter reflects the increase in interest rates imposed by the CBE during the past 12 months, in addition to increased cash balances due to significant increases in revenues compared to the same period of last year. Interest expense9 stood at EGP 44 million, up 2% year-on-year in Q1 2024. The marginal increase in interest expenses were mainly driven by: ·     Higher interest on lease liabilities related to IFRS 16 due to the addition of new branches to IDH's network. ·     Higher interest expenses following the CBE decision to increase rates in December 2023 and February 2024. It is important to note that IDH's interest bearing debt balance decreased to EGP 104 million as at 31 March 2024, from EGP 111 million at year-end 2023. In 2023, as part of IDH's strategy to reduce foreign currency risk, the Company agreed with General Electric (GE) for the early repayment of its contractual obligation of USD 5.7 million. To finance the settlement, IDH utilized a bridge loan facility, with half the amount being funded internally, while the other half (amounting to EGP 55 million) was provided through a bridge loan by Ahly United Bank- Egypt (AUBE). Interest expenses related to the AUBE facility recorded EGP 5 million in Q1 2024. The bridge loan was fully settled in Q2 2023. ·     Fast track payments worth EGP 1.6 million, which encompass discounts provided for the rapid payment of receivables in Q1 2024. Interest Expense Breakdown
 9 Interest expenses on medium-term loans include EGP 5 million related to the Group's facility with Ahli United Bank Egypt (AUBE). 10 Interest expenses on medium-term loans include EGP 5 million related to the Group's facility with Ahli United Bank Egypt (AUBE). 11 Loan-related expenses on IFC facility represents commitment fees on the facility granted by IFC and Mashreq with a total value of USD 60 million. The facility was cancelled in May 2023. Foreign Exchange IDH booked a foreign exchange gain of EGP 301 million in Q1 2024, up from EGP 109 million during the same period of the previous year. The foreign exchange gain was due to intercompany balances revaluation. Taxation Tax expenses, including income and deferred tax, rose to EGP 101 million during Q1 2024, up from EGP 42 million one year prior. IDH's effective tax rate remained stable at 20% in Q1 2024. The decline in effective tax rate for both quarters compared to IDH's historical averages is primarily due to the increase in foreign exchange gain recorded during the periods as a result of intercompany transactions. It is important to highlight that there is no tax payable for IDH's two holding-level companies. Taxation Breakdown by Region
Net Profit IDH booked a net profit of EGP 402 million in Q1 2024, a 139% year-on-year increase due to the substantial increase in foreign exchange gain from intercompany transactions. Meanwhile, the Company's Net Profit Margin (NPM) came in at 34% compared to 18% in Q1 2023. When accounting for contributions from foreign exchange gains during both periods, IDH booked an adjusted net profit of EGP 100 million in Q1 2024, growing 70% year-on-year from EGP 59 million during the same quarter of last year. The Company's adjusted net profit margin stood at 9% during the quarter, up from 6% in Q1 2023. |
ii. Balance Sheet Analysis
Assets Property, Plant and Equipment IDH recorded property, plant and equipment (PPE) cost of EGP 2,903 million as of 31 March 2024, up from EGP 2,554 million at the end of 2023. The increase in CAPEX as a share of revenue during the past three-month period is mainly attributable to the addition of new branches, renovation of existing branches, improvements of IDH's headquarters (constituting 4.3% of revenues), in addition to the translation effect related to Jordan, Nigeria, and Saudi Arabia (comprising 25.5% of revenues). Total CAPEX Addition Breakdown - Q1 2024
 Accounts Receivable and Provisions Accounts receivable at 31 March 2023 amounted to EGP 703 million, up 23% year-to-date. Meanwhile, IDH's receivables' Days on Hand (DoH) booked 141 days, up from 134 days at the end of 2023. Provision for doubtful accounts during Q1 2024 recorded EGP 17 million, up from EGP 11 million one year prior. Higher provision for doubtful accounts continues to reflect slower collection rates due to inflationary pressures in IDH's markets, particularly Egypt and Nigeria. Inventory At 31 March 2024, IDH booked an inventory balance of EGP 480 million, up 28% compared to the end of 2023. Meanwhile, Days Inventory Outstanding (DIO) increased to 164 days, from 133 days at 31 December 2023. Increased DIO showcases management's proactive strategy of accumulating inventory to hedge against inflationary pressures. Cash and Net Debt Cash balances and financial assets at amortised cost at 31 March 2024 reached EGP 944 million, up from EGP 835 million at year-end 2023. Â
 IDH's net debt12 balance came in at EGP 359 million as of the end of Q1 2024, remaining relatively stable compared to EGP 361 million as at year-end 2023.
Note: Interest Bearing Debt includes accrued interest for each period. *If excluding Lease Liabilities Property (IFRS 16), IDH would have recorded net cash of EGP 578 million  Lease liabilities and financial obligations on property came in at EGP 937 million at the end of Q1 2024, with the increase driven by the translation effect due to a rise in JOD-denominated liabilities in Jordan following the devaluation of the EGP in early 2024. Meanwhile, financial obligations related to equipment stood at EGP 250 million as at 31 Mar 2024, with the increase attributable to increases in USD-linked contracts with equipment suppliers following the devaluation of the Egyptian Pound. Finally, interest bearing debt14 (excluding accrued interest) reached EGP 104 million at the end of Q1 2024, down from EGP 111 million at year-end 2023. 12 The net debt balance is calculated as cash and cash equivalent balances including financial assets at amortised cost, less interest-bearing debt (medium term loans), finance lease and Right-of-use liabilities. 13 As outlined in Note 18 of IDH's Consolidated Financial Statements, some term deposits and treasury bills cannot be accessed for over 3 months and are therefore not treated as cash. Term deposits which cannot be accessed for over 3 months stood at EGP 67 million at March 2023 (2022: EGP 60 million). Meanwhile, treasury bills not accessible for over 3 months stood at EGP 139 million (2022: EGP 107 million). 14 IDH's interest bearing debt as at 31 March 2024 included EGP 107 million to its facility with Ahli United Bank Egypt (AUBE) (outstanding loan balances are excluding accrued interest for the period). It is worth noting that in order to finance the early repayment settlement with General Electric, the Company utilized a bridge loan facility of EGP 55 million. The facility was withdrawn in Q1 2023 and settled in Q2 2023. Liabilities Accounts Payable15 Accounts payable as of 31 March 2024 stood at EGP 300 million, up from EGP 272 million at the end of 2023. Meanwhile, Days Payable Outstanding (DPO) came in at 110 days, down from 113 days at 31 December 2023. Put Option The put option current liability stood at EGP 441 million as at 31 March 2024, up from EGP 314 million at 31 December 2023, and is related to both: ·     The option granted in 2011 to Dr. Amid, Biolab's CEO, to sell his stake (40%) to IDH. The put option is in the money and exercisable since 2016 and is calculated as 7 times Biolab's LTM EBITDA minus net debt. Biolab's put option liability decreased following the significant decline in the venture's EBITDA for the period. ·     The option granted in 2018 to the International Finance Corporation from Dynasty - shareholders in Echo Lab - and it is exercisable in 2024. The put option is calculated based on fair market value (FMV). The put option non-current liability amounted to EGP 48 million at the end of Q1 2024, up from EGP 43 million at 31 December 2023, and is related to the option granted in 2022 to Izhoor, IDH, and Biolab as part of their JV agreement in Saudi Arabia. The option allows the non-defaulting party, at its sole and absolute discretion, to serve one or more written notices to the defaulting party. The notices enable the non-defaulting party to buy the defaulting party's shares at the fair price, sell its shares to the defaulting party at the fair price, or request the dissolution and liquidation of the JV company. It is important to note that the put option, which grants these rights to the non-defaulting party, does not have a specified expiration date. 15 Accounts payable is calculated based on average payables at the end of each period. |

Through the historic acquisitions of Makhbariyoun Al Arab the Group entered into separate put option arrangements to purchase the remaining equity interests from the vendors at of a subsequent date. At acquisition, a put option liability has been recognised at the net present value of the exercise price of the option.
The option is calculated at seven times EBITDA of the last 12 months minus Net Debt and its exercisable in whole starting the fifth anniversary of completion of the original purchase agreement, which fell due in June 2016. The vendor has not exercised this right at 31 March 2024. It is important to note that the put option liability is treated as current as it could be exercised at any time by the NCI. However, based on discussions and ongoing business relationships, there is no expectation that this will happen in next 21 months. The option has no expiry date.

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the steering committee that makes strategic decisions.
The Group has five operating segments based on geographical location rather than two operating segments based on service provided, as the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) reviews the internal management reports and KPIs of each geography.
The Group operates in five geographic areas, Egypt, Sudan, Jordan, Nigeria and Saudi Arabia. As a provider of medical diagnostic services, IDH's operations in Sudan are not subject to sanctions. The revenue split, EBITDA split (being the key profit measure reviewed by CODM) net profit and loss between the five regions is set out below.
