Its really amazing how Radius care can do so well with care and yet the other listed company in this area does so poorly.

From what I can see, they don't seem to have the big flashy stuff like the other larger RV companies meaning their internal costs are lighter.
The fact that the 4% govt increase has increased their profits sort of suggest there costs are well controlled. Do they build any facilities?
Good on the for staying within their niche, you can see them becoming more of a player with the RV companies like RYM reducing the Govt funded residents that do not pay the equvilent as the RYM residents do.
For Bars Review
Radius Residential Care (RAD) provided an upbeat trading update at its ASM, with 1H26 underlying EBITDA now expected to be between NZ$14m and NZ$16m versus prior guidance of NZ$12m to NZ$15m. The midpoint of updated guidance is +41% above 1H25. The key driver of the upgrade continues to be rising occupancy, which has improved to 94.8% in the first four months of FY26, maintaining its upwards trend. Given RAD's large fixed cost base, incremental improvements in occupancy are delivering meaningful operating leverage. A mix benefit from more higher-acuity residents, and solid village resales are also contributing. RAD continues to prove out its operating model and remains well positioned to grow earnings organically and through a blend of owned and capital-light leased acquisitions. We make small changes to our near-term earnings estimates and lift our sustainable long-term growth rate in EBITDAR per bed by +0.5% p.a. to reflect solid execution. Our target price rises by +7% to NZ$0.48.
What's changed?
Earnings: Underlying EBITDA rises +2% over FY26, FY27, and FY28 and we lift our long-term earnings growth rate marginally.
Spot valuation: Our spot valuation rises +3 cps to NZ$0.48.
Occupancy uplift continues to drive leverage
RAD's key occupancy metric has continued its upward trajectory, averaging 94.8% year to date and reaching 95.2% in July. This is comfortably ahead of the 92.8% achieved in FY25 and marginally above our prior 94.4% FY26 forecast. The uplift is flowing through to strong EBITDA gains, given RAD's largely fixed cost structure. With high-acuity demand, consistent four-year audit accreditations, and constrained sector capacity, RAD is well positioned to sustain these higher occupancy levels. That said, the scope for further uplift is narrowing as RAD approaches our estimate of maximum sustainable occupancy at ~96%.
1H26 guidance upgraded, forecasts lifted
RAD now expects 1H26 underlying EBITDA to land between NZ$14m and NZ$16m, up from the NZ$12m to NZ$15m range provided in June 2025. At the midpoint, guidance is now ~+NZ$5m or +41% ahead of 1H25 driven by solid operational leverage. In response, we lift our FY26–FY28 underlying EBITDA forecasts by +2%, which already incorporates the +4% government funding increase effective from 1 July 2025. We also incorporate a higher level of sustainable long term earnings growth on a per bed basis, reflecting our growing confidence in RAD's operating model.
Ryman's (RYM) pending closure of two Christchurch care facilities may reignite funding debate
RYM will close two old Christchurch care facilities (95 beds in aggregate), relocating residents to other RYM facilities. The closures further reduce the availability of care beds and reflect the trend of operators exiting smaller or older sites. This trend is placing upward pressure on occupancy in the private sector and highlights the sector's funding constraints.
Earnings revisions
We lift our FY26 occupancy assumption from 94.4% to 95.0%, with modest upward adjustments also made to FY27 and FY28. Our FY27 occupancy of 95.2% is consistent with occupancy observed in July 2025. Given RAD's largely fixed cost base, incremental gains continue to translate into meaningful operating leverage. As a result, we upgrade our underlying EBITDA estimates by +2% over FY26/FY27/FY28. We also marginally raise our long-term EBITDA per bed growth rate assumption, reflecting growing confidence in RAD's operational execution.
Starting to wonder if I caught a falling knife here. Seems like a pretty undemanding valuation, rough calculation I did recently suggests if ebitda to npat ratio is maintained the new guidance is around 10 mill npat annualized. I reckon the low end of aged care is where the real grey tide is going to be, watching that occupancy.....

Expansion continues ,great acquisition at a good price Ideally suited for their core business
Some reasonable interest in RAD over the last few days. I managed to accumulate a few at 38c a week or so ago. Seems cheap on current metrics and still growing.

They are one of the few R V s that are profitable& paying a div.
I do like the fact the founder is in control & a major shareholder it does show .
The rv business models of larger companies are differently focused & failing.
Good to see this one rising despite the others struggling pretty bad. I reckon they are the best operator you can buy when it comes to day to day village profit, not really a development play even though they dabble. So far I'm glad I doubled down the other week, all eyes on the guidance for FY27 to hopefully get some PE multiple expansion going and we will be winning big. Anecdotally I've heard there is a bit of a glut of nurses at the moment, not sure about care staff, should help a bit avoiding the crazy wage inflation we saw with OCA during the shortage.

Diversification is the name of the game ,seems to be a good business strategy
