Amanat Holdings completes full acquisition of GCC rehabilitation care provider Cambridge Health Group

Dubai-listed healthcare and education company Amanat Holdings has completed its full acquisition of Cambridge Health Group, the GCC's leading provider of post-acute, rehabilitation, and long-term care services.

According to a report by Investors in Healthcare, Amanat acquired an additional 10.03% stake in Cambridge Health Group for AED105 million ($26 million/€23 million), concluding a phased acquisition process that included a circa 3% stake acquired earlier in June 2026. The deal values Cambridge Health Group at approximately AED1 billion (€243 million), marking the conclusion of a multi-stage consolidation strategy that has seen Amanat progressively build its ownership position in the business over time.

Cambridge Health Group currently operates 715 beds across six facilities in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, supported by more than 1,200 healthcare professionals. Its next phase of strategic development targets more than 1,000 beds across the GCC, representing a significant expansion of its existing regional footprint across both established and emerging markets in the Middle East.

The business delivered record performance in FY2025, with revenue increasing 11% year-on-year to AED404 million (€98 million) and EBITDA rising 14% to AED100 million (€24 million). Momentum has accelerated sharply into 2026, with revenue growing 27% and EBITDA rising 49% in the first quarter, while profit increased six-fold year-on-year, reflecting the strength of underlying demand for post-acute and rehabilitative care services across the region.

John Ireland, CEO of Amanat, said: "Full ownership allows us to move with greater speed and conviction behind a business that is already outperforming."

Dr Ali Saeed bin Harmal Aldhaheri, chairman of Amanat, said: "Completing the full acquisition of CHG marks a defining moment for Amanat and reflects our strategic commitment to one of the most compelling healthcare businesses in the GCC."

For private healthcare operators and investors, the transaction underscores the growing appetite for consolidation in the post-acute and rehabilitative care segment across the Middle East. Demographic trends, an ageing population, and a rising chronic disease burden are driving sustained demand for specialised long-term care capacity, making rehabilitation and post-acute platforms an increasingly attractive target for strategic capital across the GCC.
