            MD MEDICAL GROUP ANNOUNCES OPERATING RESULTS FOR Q2 2022

   1 August 2022  – MD  Medical Group  Investments Plc  (“MD Medical  Group”,
   “MDMG”, “Group” or the “Company”; LSE  and MOEX: MDMG), a leading  Russian
   private healthcare provider, today  announces its operating and  unaudited
   financial results for the second quarter of 2022.

                     Key financial highlights for H1 2022:

    

     ▪ Total    revenue    increased    by 1.3%    year-on-year (y-o-y)    to
       RUB 12,159 million.
     ▪ Like-for-like (LFL) revenue was flat y-o-y.
     ▪ Revenue of the Group’s hospitals in Moscow decreased by 4.3% y-o-y  to
       RUB 6,355 million due  to a  lower utilisation  rate at  the  Lapino-4
       COVID treatment facility as the pandemic subsided.
     ▪ Revenue of the  Group’s hospitals  in regions grew  by 12.4% y-o-y  to
       RUB 3,087 million thanks to the strong operational performance of  the
       medical cluster in Tyumen 1  1 , target utilisation rates achieved  at
       IDK hospital in Samara, as well as the MD Lakhta hospital shifting its
       focus to the core business of women’s and children’s healthcare.
     ▪ Revenue of the Group’s  out-patient clinics in  Moscow and the  Moscow
       region surged by 13.5% to RUB 1,281 million thanks to the recovery  in
       demand for IVF following the pandemic.
     ▪ Revenue of the Group’s out-patient clinics in other regions dropped by
       3.7% y-o-y  to RUB 1,430 million  due to  the late  allocation of  IVF
       quotas covered by  the Mandatory Health  Insurance (MHI) programme  in
       some regions of the Russian  Federation. The allocated quotas will  be
       used in the upcoming quarters of 2022.

    

   Key operational highlights for H1 2022:

    

     ▪ Total out-patient  treatments decreased  slightly, by  2.1% y-o-y,  to
       878,458, with  a 11.7%  increase  in the  average  ticket to  RUB  5.4
       thousand in Moscow/Moscow region and a 10.9% increase y-o-y to RUB 2.3
       thousand in other regions.
     ▪ Total in-patient treatments decreased by  7.4% y-o-y to 70,937 due  to
       the easing of  the COVID-19 pandemic;  at the same  time, the  average
       ticket increased by 22.2% y-o-y to RUB 91.5 thousand in Moscow and  by
       1.6% y-o-y to RUB 34.7 thousand in other regions.
     ▪ Total IVF  cycles  increased by  0.8%  y-o-y  to 8,223,  with  a  4.9%
       increase in the average ticket to RUB 264.4 thousand in  Moscow/Moscow
       region and  a 4.9%  increase  y-o-y to  RUB  235.2 thousand  in  other
       regions.
     ▪ Total deliveries increased by 2.0%  y-o-y to 4,109, while the  average
       ticket rose by 4.6% y-o-y to RUB 490.0 thousand in Moscow and by  6.0%
       y-o-y to RUB 173.6 thousand in other regions.

                             Key events in Q2 2022:

    

     ▪ Novosibirsk   Centre   for   Reproductive   Medicine   renovated.   On
       16 June 2022, MD Medical Group completed the renovation of its medical
       centre in Novosibirsk, increasing its capacity to 1,000 IVF cycles per
       year and investing around RUB 23 million.
     ▪ Medical centre  opened in  Moscow. On  23 June 2022, MD Medical  Group
       opened a new  outpatient medical centre,  Mother&Child Butovo, with  a
       capacity of 30,000 visits per year and some RUB 16 million invested in
       the project.

                        Mark Kurtser, CEO at MDMG, said:

    “In H1 2022,  despite macroeconomic  woes,  we delivered  strong  results
   while working hard to improve our services and operational efficiency  and
   maintain a solid financial position.

   “We are  happy with  the Company’s  H1 performance,  as a  decline in  the
   utilisation rate expected  at the Lapino-4  COVID treatment facility  amid
   the fading pandemic was  offset by robust  demand for women’s  healthcare,
   with its revenue for the period up  by 7%. I am also pleased to note  that
   we have been successfully diversifying our services. In particular, we see
   stable demand  in non-core  segments, such  as trauma  care, oncology  and
   cardiology, with their share in the Group’s H1 revenue at 49%.

   “Our new projects are also performing  strongly and are on track to  reach
   their respective  design  capacities.  In  the  first  three months  after
   MD Lakhta was converted back into a clinical hospital, we performed  about
   90 deliveries, and we continue to  increase patient flows. Meanwhile,  our
   Tyumen medical  cluster,  which includes  the  Tyumen-1  multidisciplinary
   hospital   and   Tyumen-2   COVID   treatment   facility   (launched    in
   February 2022), achieved a 25% revenue  growth and a 35% utilisation  rate
   in H1 2022, still having  a significant potential  to support the  Group’s
   future growth.

   “We see a gradual  recovery of patient flows  and deferred demand for  IVF
   after the COVID-19 pandemic. In H1 2022,  the number of IVF cycles was  up
   by 18% in Moscow hospitals and 22% in outpatient clinics in Moscow and the
   Moscow Region.

   “Thanks to  effective  steps taken  to  ensure sufficient  liquidity,  our
   financial standing  remained stable.  It was  for the  first time  in  the
   Company’s history that we posted negative net debt.

   “MD Medical Group keeps  up the momentum,  increasing the availability  of
   its services in Moscow and beyond. In June 2022, we opened a new clinic in
   Butovo and renovated our medical centre in Novosibirsk. We are also  about
   to launch outpatient clinics  in Yekaterinburg and  Moscow and working  to
   build a Lapino-3 nuclear medicine centre.

   “I am also very happy to say that MGIMO Med, a medical university  created
   jointly with MGIMO,  has started  accepting applications,  with the  first
   intake scheduled for September.

   “Despite the  H1 turmoils, we  were able  to maintain  a strong  financial
   position and deliver robust operational results, so we do not rule out the
   possibility of paying dividends before the end of the year.

   “We proceed with  our strategy  of diversifying the  Group’s services  and
   growing both organically and through acquisitions.”

   Hospitals in Moscow

   In  Q2 2022,   Moscow   hospitals’   revenue  fell   by 15.4%   y-o-y   to
   RUB 2,888 million, mainly due to dwindling  patient flows at the  Lapino-4
   COVID treatment facility amid the  pandemic slowdown (a 22.9% decrease  in
   the number of  in-patient days).  A 6.4% drop  in the  average ticket  for
   in-patient treatments  also resulted  from the  scaling down  of  COVID-19
   diagnostic and  treatment services.  In addition,  revenue was  negatively
   affected by fewer deliveries in Moscow (-8.5%) due to the overall downward
   trend in Russia’s birth rate.

   A decrease in  revenues from in-patient  facilities and delivery  services
   was  offset  by  a  33.8%  spike  in  revenue  from  IVF  thanks  to   the
   post-pandemic recovery of  demand (+16.5%  IVF cycles y-o-y),  as well  as
   higher  demand  for   treatment  unrelated  to   women’s  and   children’s
   healthcare. The number of in-patient days in traumatology, cardiology  and
   oncology was up by 95.3%, 33.2% and 12.2% y-o-y, respectively.

   Hospitals in regions

   In  Q2 2022,   regional  hospitals’   revenue  grew   by 15.1%  y-o-y   to
   RUB 1,628 million, driven  by better  results  in women’s  and  children’s
   healthcare services (+20.1%  y-o-y in revenue  from deliveries; +20.4%  in
   revenue from IVF). The increase in  deliveries (+13.5% y-o-y) came on  the
   back  of  Tyumen-1  gradually  progressing  towards  its  design  capacity
   (current utilisation rate is 25.9%), as well as MD Lakhta shifting to  its
   core business  of  women’s and  children’s  healthcare, with  a  focus  on
   childbirth and gynaecological surgery. The number of deliveries  performed
   at MD Lakhta during the reporting  period was 84, with the average  ticket
   standing at RUB 178.2 thousand.

   The upward trend in revenue was also firmly supported by a growing  number
   of in-patient days  (+26.1% y-o-y)  – revenue  from this  segment for  the
   period up by 21.7%. Clinical hospitals in Novosibirsk and Samara were  the
   top contributors  to utilisation  rates,  gaining 25.8%  and  37.7% y-o-y,
   respectively. A 3.4% drop in the average ticket for in-patient  treatments
   resulted from  the  scaling  down of  COVID-19  diagnostic  and  treatment
   services.

   Out-patient clinics in Moscow and Moscow region

   In Q2 2022, revenues  from out-patient  clinics in Moscow  and the  Moscow
   Region rose  by 7.3%  y-o-y  to RUB 671 million.  The  key  driver  behind
   revenue  pickup  was  a  10.5%  increase  in  IVF  cycles  thanks  to  the
   post-pandemic recovery  of demand.  The average  IVF ticket  increased  by
   8.8%, primarily on the back of indexed prices.

   A slight 1.6% drop in  the average ticket for  visits was caused by  tough
   comparatives from Q2 2021 as regards COVID-19 diagnostics and treatment.

   Out-patient clinics in regions

   In Q2 2022, revenues from  regional out-patient clinics  shed a mere  3.3%
   y-o-y to come in at RUB 761 million. This was associated with a 12.9% drop
   in IVF cycles mainly due to  the suspension of the Novosibirsk Centre  for
   Reproductive Medicine,  which was  closed  for renovation.  The  renovated
   centre with an  annual capacity of  1,000 IVF cycles opened  its doors  on
   16 June 2022.

   Fewer IVF cycles also resulted from the late distribution of quotas  under
   the MHI programme in  some Russian regions. The  allocated quotas will  be
   used in the upcoming quarters of 2022. The average IVF ticket increased by
   4.8%, primarily on the back of indexed prices.

   Out-patient visits

   The second quarter saw a 2.9% fall in the number of out-patient visits  at
   the Group’s  medical facilities  in  Moscow and  other  regions due  to  a
   reduction in COVID-19 diagnostic and treatment services.

   This was offset by an increase in  the average ticket in Moscow and  other
   regions (+10.9% and +11.3% y-o-y, respectively) thanks to a wider  service
   offering, including traumatology and cardiology, as well as inflation.

   Net cash position

   As of  30 June 2022,  the Group’s  debt  decreased by  RUB 496 million  to
   RUB 4,619 million compared to  31 March 2022, bringing  the Company’s  net
   cash position to RUB 85 million at the end of Q2 2022.

   CAPEX

   Total CAPEX in Q2 2022  decreased by 34.6% y-o-y  to RUB 211 million.  The
   hospital segment accounted for the bulk of CAPEX (60.9%), while 39.1%  was
   allocated for the construction of new clinics and maintenance costs.

   An out-patient  clinic in  Yekaterinburg with  a focus  on IVF  cycles  is
   expected to  be  ready  for operations  in  Q3  2022. The  CAPEX  for  the
   construction of the clinic is expected to amount to RUB 50 million.

   In H2 2022, the  Group is also expecting  to launch out-patient clinic  in
   the Moscow region as well as one lab specimen collection site under the MD
   LAB brand.

   The nuclear medicine centre Lapino-3 is currently at the design stage  and
   is  expected  to  be  ready  for  operations  in  2024.  Total  CAPEX  for
   construction of the facility is expected to amount to RUB 1.5 billion.
