For further information: Press release La Tour Holding SA Email : [email protected] Tel. : + 4122 719 63 65 Geneva, May 5, 2020 Update on COVID-19 and anticipated results for the first semester of 2020 Due to measures taken to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, on March 16th, hospitals and healthcare centres in Switzerland were ordered by the Federal Council to stop performing non-emergency medical consultations and operations. These measures also applied to the hospital and healthcare centres operated by La Tour Holding SA, and resulted in a drop in the numbers of both inpatients and outpatients. La Tour Holding SA anticipates that these measures will impact the company's H1 2020 financial results. In such a case, the ratio between La Tour Holding SA's total senior debt and its EBITDA on a rolling basis for the previous 12-months period may exceed, at the end of the first semester of 2020, 5.50. However, the cash-flow of the company remains satisfactory and La Tour Holding SA does not expect any difficulty in meeting all obligations to lenders.
