Justin Ash, Chief Executive Officer of Spire Healthcare, said:
"Today's results demonstrate a resilient performance against a backdrop of increased costs and changes in the NHS commissioning environment towards the end of the year. We doubled down on our strategy which allowed us to respond effectively, delivering a planned £30m in savings and improved free cashflow generation while maintaining care quality, optimising pricing, and exercising discipline across activity mix and investment.
2025 was a year of significant transformation as we lowered our cost of delivery and centralised administration into our Patient Support Centres, creating a strong platform for improving patient experience and future growth. Thanks to the hard work and commitment of our more than 17,000 colleagues and consultant partners, we have reshaped the organisation to be more agile and responsive.
We delivered growth across our hospital and primary care businesses, reflected in the improving private payor trends in the second half of the year, as our strategic initiatives continued to drive performance. Through disciplined investments to grow our private patient business and further efficiency initiatives, we will continue to evolve into a more integrated, nimble and forward-looking organisation well-positioned to meet the UK's growing healthcare needs. We remain confident in the market opportunities ahead and our medium-term outlook."
