conditions, with an enhanced sensitivity to formal employment rates. The sector is

particularly dependent on the regulatory framework, but has also been deeply affected

by competition dynamics in the past.

Oncoclínicas: We reach our price target of R$2.50 by applying a 12m fwd EV/EBITDA of

~5x, in line with historical levels. The main risks in our radar are: 1) Deteriorating

relations with paying sources; 2) Reduced bargaining power with suppliers; 3) Higher-

than-expected disbursements on investments abroad; and 4) Enhanced competition on

the higher-complexity procedures market.

Fleury: We reach our price target of R$17.50 by applying a 12m fwd P/E of ~11x, in line

environment; and 4) More aggressive competition dynamics.
