Director dealings: Spire Healthcare director ups stake
Simon Rowlands, non-executive director of private healthcare provider Spire Healthcare, purchased 114,000 ordinary shares in the company on Wednesday, upping his stake to a total of 328,516 as a result.
Rowlands spent £248,793.60 on the purchase, acquiring the shares at an average price of 218.24p each.
Earlier in March, Spire reported a 24% fall in profits in its last full year after a decline in NHS local work but the private healthcare operator maintained its dividend as new boss Justin Ash said he was "encouraged by the excellent opportunity" ahead.
Revenues of £931.7m were pretty much flat, up 0.6% thanks to growth in self-pay customers, patient admission numbers and increases in average revenue per case across all groups. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation of £150m were down 4.7% at the underlying level.
As of 1620 GMT, shares had gained 1.96% to 218.40p.
