However, when one off items such as tax adjustments are stripped out, underlying earnings rose 27% to $6.52 million for the year to March.
The private hospital operator says the rise in earnings comes from growth in existing business and expansion into new markets.

The firm bought a 60% stake in Norfolk Southern Cross, which owns a private hospital in Tauranga, and shares in Endoscopy and Laparoscopy Auckland.
