Q2 Revenue Up 13%, EBITDA Down 6%
Revenue reached S/1,238M (+13% YoY, +9% FXN) driven by volume growth across Mexico, Peru, and Colombia. Adjusted EBITDA fell to S/227M (-6% YoY) with margin at 18.4%, down 3.7 p.p. from 2Q25.

Cash Flow Surge and Leverage Improvement
Operating cash flow rose 45% YoY to S/441M YTD; free cash flow jumped 181% to S/400M. Leverage ratio improved to 3.6x, supported by higher cash balances (S/478M) and disciplined working capital management.
-
FY26 Guidance Reaffirmed with EBITDA at Low End
Management reaffirmed FY26 revenue growth near midpoint of 10-14% FXN range (~12%), but expects Adjusted EBITDA growth toward the low end of that range due to temporary cost pressures across all three geographies.
-
Capacity Expansions in Colombia and Peru
Colombia: reactivated 18 ICU beds, added 24 hospitalization beds, and opened a new OR in Montería. Peru: took possession of Lima Sur site (operational late 2027-early 2028) and acquired Versius SP4 robotic system for Clínica Delgado.
Analysis · AUNA · Industrial Applications And Services
Auna delivered strong top-line growth of 13% to S/1,238 million, but Adjusted EBITDA declined 6% to S/227 million due to service mix shifts, pharmacy costs, and accepted billing penalties in Peru. Cash flow was a bright spot: operating cash flow rose 45% and free cash flow jumped 181%, helping reduce leverage to 3.6x. Management reaffirmed full-year revenue guidance of ~12% growth but expects Adjusted EBITDA at the low end of its range, signaling continued margin pressure. The results show a company growing volumes across all three markets while absorbing near-term cost headwinds.
