About Al Noor Al Noor Hospitals Group Plc provides primary, secondary and tertiary care in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi and the wider region through its portfolio of hospitals and medical centres. As of 30 June 2013, the company had 227 operational beds and 504 physicians, more than any other private competitor in Abu Dhabi. Al Noor was the first private hospital in Abu Dhabi City to obtain Joint Commission International (“JCI”) accreditation, and today all of its hospitals are accredited. The company is listed in on the London Stock Exchange (ticker: ANHA.L) For more information, please go to www.alnoorhospital.com. 3 CEO’s review Al Noor delivered a strong operational result for the first half of the year with revenues, operating profits and underlying EBITDA all seeing double digit year-on-year growth and EBITDA margins remaining steady at 23%. We continue to work hard on hiring and retaining our Physicians, who are essential to our success. During the first six months we added 45 Revenue-Generating Physicians and this has contributed to the rise in both Outpatient and Inpatient Volumes during the period. To deliver sustainable growth, we are working passionately on enhancing the quality of our services and improving the overall patient experience at our Hospitals and Medical Centres. At the Khalifa Hospital, as part of the growth plans we are looking to take up additional space in the existing building and enhancing the interiors of the premises to improve the patient experience. The Group has also commenced work on a phased implementation of SAP in conjunction with a leading systems integrator. This project is expected to run for the next 36 months with a phased implementation of various modules of SAP. During the first six months, three medical centres have been commissioned at Mamura in Abu Dhabi, Sanaya in Al Ain and Muscat in the Sultanate of Oman. We continue to make good progress on the two acquisition targets we disclosed in the prospectus and are confident of providing an update soon. We remain on track to deliver strong growth through our physician hiring programme and the opening of two more Medical Centres in the last quarter of 2013.

    The U.A.E. Healthcare Sector An Update: January 2018 The U.S.-U.A.E. Business Council is the premier business organization dedicated to advancing bilateral commercial relations. By leveraging its extensive networks in the U.S. and in the region, the U.S.-U.A.E.

At the time of the U.A.E.’s founding in 1971, the country had just seven hospitals and 12 health centers. As of 2015, according to the latest figures from the U.A.E. statistics authority, the U.A.E. had 126 public and private hospitals with a combined capacity of over 12,000 beds.1 U.S. companies and citizens have played an important role in this growth story, as best symbolized by the Oasis Hospital in Al Ain. In 1960, U.S. missionaries Drs. Pat and Marian Kennedy built this hospital – the U.A.E.’s first – in a mud-block guesthouse donated by the late U.A.E. President Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.2 Over the next 50 years, this hospital birthed more than 90,000 babies, including members of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family.3 Moreover, it retained strong connections with that family, which funded the hospital’s expansion earlier this decade.4 As the U.A.E.
