Estia Health is an Australian aged care operator floated by Quadrant Private Equity in December 2014 when it was valued at $725 million.[1]

It operates 75 facilities across Australia and is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.

History

[edit]

It was founded by Peter Arvanitis.[2] He resigned in 2016.[3]

In 2018 it had the largest proportion of women in its executive team.[4] The company lost about a sixth of its value in September 2018 when the government announced a public inquiry into misconduct in the aged care sector,[5] following the Australian Broadcasting Corporation produced a two-part documentary focusing on alleged neglect and abuse of older people.[6]

Estia Health was a public company traded on the Australian Securities Exchange until December 2023 when it was taken private by Bain Capital[7] for $551.3 million.[8]

Acquisitions

[edit]

It acquired 4 residential aged care homes and two development sites worth more than $100m from Premier Health Care Group in 2022. They will add 409 resident places to their portfolio and two development sites could deliver a further 160-179.[9]
