  "summary": "Sunway Healthcare Holdings Bhd reported a significant jump in net profit for the second quarter of the financial year ending Dec 31, 2026, reaching RM78.15 million, up from RM41.38 million in the same period last year. Revenue also increased by 30% to RM672.89 million, driven primarily by higher contributions from hospital operations. The hospital operations segment saw a 29% increase in revenue to RM659.2 million, largely due to higher patient volumes and increased revenue from Sunway Medical Centre (SMC) Sunway City, Damansara, and Ipoh. Foreign patient revenue grew by 31% to RM84.9 million, driven by increased inflows from Indonesia, China, and Cambodia. The company also noted a rise in overall bed occupancy rate to 73%, up from 67% in the previous quarter.",
