Anima currently has 75,000 corporate subscribers, focused mainly on subscriptions covering labor medicine services. In 2016, Anima registered a turnover of EUR5.2 million.
The acquisition of medical clinic chain Anima is the 15th acquisition carried out by MedLife group to date.
Mid-May 2017, MedLife said it would move its corporate headquarters to a building in Bucharest acquired from Telekom. MedLife CEO Mihai Marcu said a clinic would be opened on the ground floor. MedLife carried out a sale and leaseback operation in financial leasing system, according to the financial report for the first quarter released by the company on the website bvb.ro.
MedLife’s shareholding structure includes the company’s CEO Mihai Marcu, with a 21% stake, Nicolae Marcu, with 15% of the shares, Gabriela Cristescu, with 15% of the shares, and the remaining stake of 49% is distributed among other shareholders.
MedLife posted a 26.4% increase in turnover on the year, to RON146.9 million, in January-March 2017. The turnover growth is mainly due to a significant increase in the group’s all business lines, chiefly on the divisions of stomatology, clinics and laboratories, as well as the acquisitions completed by the group in 2016.
