THE CEO'S COMMENTS
The positive development of volumes and results has continued for our
clinics during the first quarter. We have noted that demand has
continued to increase in our orthopaedic and spine clinics as well as
for our arrhythmia clinic in Stockholm. The number of orders received
for the coming quarter is also favourable. At the same time there is a
certain shift in the treatment mix of our Stockholm clinics as a result
of the fact that we give priority to patients from the local County
Council and this means a lower average price per treatment. All Swedish
spine and orthopaedic clinics could expand further.

The dental clinics have been negatively affected by a somewhat lower
inflow of referrals during the last quarter of 2010, but they have
increased sharply during the first months of the year, which is expected
to give higher revenues later in the year as these patients are treated
three to six months after the referral has been received. The market
situation is still uncertain for specialist dentistry during the coming
future.

For our Swedish bariatric clinics the market situation is still strong,
primarily due to rapidly increasing demand from the County Councils, who
are actively trying to shorten waiting times until operations. However,
this affects the demand from privately funded patients negatively, which
leads to lower prices per treatment.

A few of the newly started Bartiatric clinics display negative results,
partly as a consequence of the fact that they have just been started but
also due to changed market conditions in the two countries. As a whole
Global Health Partner is developing positively, the level of activity is
high and the development of demand in the majority of our existing
clinics continues to be strong.
