Commenting on the acquisition, Virgilio Gibbon, Chief Executive Officer of Afya stated, “We are pleased that we have been able to acquire another attractive medical school operator. Growing our business through acquisitions is an important component of our growth strategy as articulated during our IPO last year. To date, we have now added slightly more than 570 seats or 57% of our started goal to add 1,000 seats over a three-year period. Our recent acquisitions have all seen top line growth coupled with margin expansion. I am very proud that our team has been able to continue executing on our long-term strategic initiatives even under the current challenging environment. We maintain a healthy financial position giving us the ability to adapt to the dynamic environment we are operating in.”
