Netcare stock reports H1 adjusted HEPS of 71.70 cents

Netcare (ISIN ZAE000011953) reported adjusted HEPS of 71.70 cents per share for the half year ended March 31, 2026, according to MarketScreener. The result gives Netcare stock a concrete earnings marker while the latest index review adds a separate ownership change.

Interim earnings set the baseline

Netcare's investor-relations page identifies the release as the unaudited interim group results for 2026, presented on May 25, 2026, and confirms the company's ISIN and South African healthcare focus through its official Netcare investor page.

TradingView lists H1 2026 revenue at ZAR 13.28 billion and net income at ZAR 870.0 million. The same page shows an H1 earnings-per-share figure of ZAR 0.66 against a ZAR 0.67 estimate, a quantified comparison that places the adjusted HEPS figure in a broader earnings context.

Free float changes effective September 21

Moneyweb reports that the FTSE/JSE September quarterly review changed Netcare's free float from 99.5824 percent to 84.5695 percent. The change became effective on September 21, 2026, linking the stock to a recent index methodology update rather than to a new operating announcement.

For investors, the distinction matters: adjusted HEPS describes operating performance in the six months through March, while the free-float revision affects index weight calculations and the pool of shares treated as freely tradable. Netcare's business remains concentrated in healthcare infrastructure, with hospital, emergency, mental-health and primary-care services.

Healthcare network anchors the company

Netcare operates 51 private hospitals, two public-private partnership hospitals and 10,605 registered beds. Its network also includes 95 primary-care centers, 79 Netcare 911 emergency sites and 10 cancer-care centers.

The company employs 18,000 people and runs 422 operating theaters, 63 renal dialysis units and 12 mental-health and psychiatric clinics. Those operating figures help explain why the interim earnings profile and free-float change matter for different reasons.

Next reporting date is November 30

TradingView lists November 30, 2026 as Netcare's next earnings date. The upcoming report will give investors a later operating checkpoint after the March 2026 interim period and the September free-float adjustment.
