“This year I think will be a record year for us. Every month, it’s like a record month. So we just have to use our money wisely,” AC Health president and CEO Paolo Borromeo told The STAR.

Last August, AC Health sealed the sale of a 16-percent minority stake in the company to a Singapore-based impact investor backed by Temasek Trust and Temasek.

The fresh capital will fuel AC Health’s expansion across its core pillars of hospitals, multi-specialty clinics and retail pharmacies through a combination of organic initiatives and targeted acquisitions.

“So we're putting the money to use. And we have a nice pipeline of acquisition targets. So we'll first see where that will get us. We'll see if we need to raise capital in a few years, but nothing imminent right now,” Borromeo said.
