Entry Multiple: 6.0x – 8.5x
Est. MOIC: 1.5x
Risk Factors:
- Negative operating margin
- Small facility (<50 beds) — limited scale
- Low occupancy (<30%) — demand risk
- Expenses exceed revenue
Catalysts:
- Limited competition supports pricing power
Margin Prediction (Trained Ridge Model)
-11.1%
R²=0.34 | n=4,907 | Grade B | Actual: -27.5%
Ridge regression trained on 4,907 HCRIS hospitals. 90% CI: [-39.4%, 17.2%]. P35 nationally.
| Driver | Value | Effect | Explanation | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue/Bed | 733308.800 | -0.1181 | Lower Revenue/Bed decreases predicted margin | |
| Expense/Bed | 935207.720 | +0.0889 | Higher Expense/Bed increases predicted margin | |
| State Peer Margin | -0.006 | +0.0290 | Higher State Peer Margin increases predicted margi | |
| Log(Beds) | 3.219 | -0.0268 | Lower Log(Beds) decreases predicted margin | |
| Bed Utilization Value | 104149.940 | -0.0255 | Lower Bed Utilization Value decreases predicted ma |
Turnaround: 31%Turnaround possible (31%) but uncertain. Margin improvement depends on improving Revenue/Bed.
