Entry Multiple: 8.0x – 10.0x
Est. MOIC: 1.9x
Risk Factors:
- Negative operating margin
- Small facility (<50 beds) — limited scale
- Low occupancy (<30%) — demand risk
- Expenses exceed revenue
Catalysts:
- Strong commercial payer base protects revenue
- Limited competition supports pricing power
Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-20.2%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -50.0%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-48.5%, 8.1%]. P21 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 983677.480 | -0.0831 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Log(Beds) | 3.219 | -0.0268 | Lower Log(Beds) decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 193824.889 | -0.0225 | Lower Bed Utilization Value decreases predicted ma | |
| Bed Count | 25.000 | +0.0193 | Higher Bed Count increases predicted margin | |
| Occupancy | 0.197 | -0.0186 | Lower Occupancy decreases predicted margin |
Turnaround: 19%Low turnaround probability (19%). Structural disadvantages in Revenue/Bed and Log(Beds).
