2336 GMT - Ramsay Health Care is reviewing its 52.8% stake in European private hospital business Ramsay Santé, leading Macquarie to estimate what a deal could look like. Macquarie assumes an Ebitda multiple of 9.0x, citing past transactions and the operating environment right now. Its assumption is ahead of the current trading multiple of 7.5x. "On this basis, we calculate an enterprise value of A$2.7 billion and an equity value of A$1.1 billion, providing a valuation uplift of A$2.00/share or 5% ahead of the current share price," Macquarie says.
