     • Revenue of the Group's regional hospitals grew by 12.1% y-o-y to RUB

       Lakhta hospital in St Petersburg.
     • Revenue from out-patient clinics in Moscow and the Moscow Region  rose

       Group fully  repaid all  its existing  credit facilities  by  settling
       outstanding obligations in  the amount of  RUB 1,436 million ahead  of
       schedule. The funds had been  borrowed to finance the construction  of
       hospitals in Samara, Novosibirsk and Tyumen.
     • First  clinic  launched   in  Yekaterinburg.   On  18 November   2022,
       MD Medical Group opened an out-patient clinic  with a focus on IVF  in
       Yekaterinburg.  The  clinic   can  handle   up  to   400 gynecological
       surgeries, about 800 IVF cycles and over 30,000 appointments per year.
       Total investments in the project amounted to circa RUB 74 million.
     • Medical centre  opened  in  the Moscow  Region.  On  13 January  2023,

       per   year.   Total    investments   in   the    project   stood    at
       around RUB 23 million.

                        Mark Kurtser, CEO at MDMG, said:

   “In 2022, the Group delivered  solid operating and financial  performance,
   adapting to the new business  environment, with revenue flat  year-on-year
   despite the last year’s strong base.

   “We continue to  capitalise on  our diversification strategy  in terms  of
   pricing, service range and geography. In 2022, we strengthened our  market
   position in  Moscow and  the  Moscow Region  by  opening two  new  medical
   centres with a focus on antenatal care in Butovo and Mytishchi. The  Group
   continues to diversify  its geographical  footprint: during  the year,  we
   launched two  clinical hospitals  in St Petersburg  and Tyumen,  and  also
   tapped into the Sverdlovsk Region, where we plan to expand our  operations
   going forward.

   “During the reporting period, we saw an increase in demand in segments not
   related to  women’s  and children’s  healthcare,  including  traumatology,
   cardiology and oncology. As  an example, in just  two years after  launch,
   our Lapino-2 surgical unit with a  focus on oncology generated as much  as
   RUB 2,182 million in revenue  and achieved  a 50%  utilisation rate  while
   maintaining potential for  further growth.  Based on  expected demand  and
   expertise we have built in oncology, we will continue to expand the Lapino
   medical cluster  in 2023 and  are  now commencing  the construction  of  a
   11,700 sq m Lapino-3 nuclear  medical centre,  which will  support a  full
   cycle of medical care in oncology.

   “Throughout the  Group's  history,  we have  been  focusing  on  providing
   high-quality  and  efficient  medical  services  to  our  patients   while
   safeguarding the interests of our shareholders. To this end, we have  been
   paying steady  dividends. Despite  the persistent  external headwinds,  we
   distributed more than 50% of our net profit in dividends for H1 2022.

   “In conclusion, I would like to thank the entire MD Medical Group team for
   their contribution  to our  results  and the  Group's ability  to  provide
   top-notch medical care and deliver stable performance."

   Hospitals in Moscow

   In Q4 2022,  revenue  from Moscow  hospitals  declined by 15.8%  y-o-y  to
   RUB 3,283 million. This was  mainly caused by  a 19.7% y-o-y  drop in  the
   number of  deliveries in  Moscow  due to  the  overall downward  trend  in
   Russia’s birth rate. Revenue and other revenue 3  3  were also affected by
   a decrease in COVID-19 diagnostic and treatment services amid the pandemic
   slowdown, with  a  y-o-y  drop  in  the  number  of  in-patient  days  and
   out-patient visits by 13.3% and 16.8% respectively.

   A decrease in revenue from COVID-19 diagnostic and treatment services  and
   revenue from delivery services was partly offset by a 22.5% y-o-y spike in
   revenue from IVF thanks  to the post-pandemic  demand recovery (+7.8%  IVF
   cycles y-o-y),  as well  as  stronger demand  for treatment  unrelated  to
   women’s and  children’s  healthcare  (the number  of  in-patient  days  in
   traumatology, cardiology and oncology was up 64.5%, 29.9% and 30.5%  y-o-y
   respectively).

   The average  IVF ticket  grew by  13.6% y-o-y,  primarily on  the back  of
   indexed prices.

   The average  ticket for  out-patient treatment  increased by  20.3%  y-o-y
   mainly thanks  to the  development of  dentistry and  commercial  oncology
   services at the Lapino medical cluster.

   Hospitals in regions

   In Q4 2022,  regional hospitals’  revenue was  up 8.1%  y-o-y and  reached
   RUB 1,759 million, driven mainly  by a  16.6% y-o-y  surge in  deliveries,
   with revenue from this business line up 31.3% y-o-y.

   A considerable increase in  the number of deliveries  came on the back  of
   Tyumen-1  and  Samara-based  IDK hospital  gradually  progressing  towards
   target capacity (with utilisation rates  going up 1.8 p.p. y-o-y to  26.1%
   and 4.8 p.p. y-o-y to 39.4% respectively) as well as strong results of the
   new MD Group  Lakhta hospital  in St Petersburg,  which achieved  a  31.1%
   utilisation rate in the reporting period.

   The 12.6% y-o-y increase in the average ticket for deliveries in  regional
   hospitals was mainly driven by indexed prices.

   Revenue growth was also significantly fuelled by an increase in the number
   of IVF cycles (up 22.7% y-o-y), with revenue rising by 24.5% y-o-y in this
   segment. Better operating results in deliveries were predominantly  driven
   by an increase in the number of IVF cycles under the MHI programme due  to
   the allocation of additional quotas in Q4 2022.

   Out-patient clinics in Moscow and Moscow region

   In Q4 2022, revenue  from clinics  in Moscow  and the  Moscow Region  rose
   by 3.5% y-o-y to RUB 707 million.

   The number of IVF cycles went down by 7.9% y-o-y due to the exceeded quota
   target under the MHI  programme in H1 2022. The  decline in the number  of
   IVF cycles was offset by  a 8.6% y-o-y rise  in the average ticket  mainly
   due to indexed prices.

   Out-patient clinics in regions

   In Q4 2022, revenue  from regional  out-patient clinics  went up  by 13.0%
   y-o-y to  RUB 863 million.  Revenue growth  in  the reporting  period  was
   mainly attributable to a 9.7% y-o-y  increase in the number of IVF  cycles
   driven by the  gradual utilisation of  quotas under the  MHI programme  in
   some Russian regions.

   The average  IVF ticket  grew by  10.5% y-o-y,  primarily on  the back  of
   indexed prices.

   On top of that, positive  impact on revenue (up  84.6% y-o-y) came from  a
   72.5% y-o-y hike in the number of in-patient days due to the allocation of
   quotas under the MHI programme.

   Net Cash position

   As of 31 December 2022,  the Group’s debt  declined from the  30 September
   2022 level  by  RUB 1,464 million  to RUB 597 million.  In  the  reporting
   period, the  Group fully  repaid  all its  existing credit  facilities  by
   settling outstanding obligations in the amount of RUB 1,436 million  ahead
   of schedule. As a result, as  of 31 December 2022, the Company’s net  cash
   position amounted to RUB 3,866 million.

   Capex

   Total Capex declined  by 88.8%  y-o-y to RUB 170 million  in Q4 2022.  The
   hospital segment  accounts  for  the  bulk of  Capex  (66.4%),  while  the
   construction of new clinics and ongoing maintenance make up 33.6% of total
   Capex.

   In the  reporting period,  the  Group launched  an out-patient  clinic  in
   Yekaterinburg with a focus on IVF.
