Executive Summary

Auna reports 1Q26 revenue growth of 10% FXN / 13% reported YoY to S/1,178 million, but Adjusted EBITDA fell 2% YoY to S/217 million (margin down 2.9pp to 18.4%) due to revenue adjustments and delayed rebates in Peru, and service mix/SG&A costs in Mexico. Net income dropped 75% to S/9 million (EPS S/0.09 vs S/0.48) driven by non-cash FX losses. Operating cash flow rose 65% to S/175 million and free cash flow increased 2.6x, but leverage remained elevated at 3.7x. Management reaffirmed full-year guidance but acknowledged a softer first half was baked in, providing limited conviction on near-term margin recovery.

Actionable Insight

Revenue growth momentum is intact (13% reported, all segments growing double-digit in local currency) but profitability is under pressure from one-time revenue adjustments in Peru and service mix shifts in Mexico. The Mexico sequential improvement (+19% QoQ Adj. EBITDA) is encouraging but needs to sustain to overcome the -14% YoY decline. With leverage at 3.7x and a medium-term target of <3.0x, debt reduction requires continued cash flow strength. The call on May 20 should clarify timing of Peru revenue normalization and Mexico margin recovery. Given strong cash flow but margin degradation, expect stock trading in a range until 2Q26 shows sustained improvement.

  • Operating cash flow +65% YoY to S/175 million (1Q25: S/106 million); free cash flow +2.6x

  • Peru Consolidation Adjusted EBITDA -3% YoY; Healthcare Services Peru Segment Adj. EBITDA -26% YoY, impacted by S/14m revenue adjustments (normal: S/3-4m)

Risk Factors

  • Peru revenue adjustments (S/14m vs normal S/3-4m) may persist if payor enforcement continues
  • Mexico Adj. EBITDA margin decline of 6.9pp YoY signals structural cost/mix headwinds; QoQ improvement must prove durable
  • Leverage at 3.7x limits financial flexibility; FX depreciation of PEN adds to debt burden
  • Non-cash FX losses (S/26m) introduce P&L volatility despite hedging reset; net income swing from one period to the next can be large
  • Guidance reaffirmation may be viewed skeptically after 2% Adj. EBITDA decline vs market expectations for stabilization
