An announcement from Doctor Care Anywhere Group PLC Shs Chess Depository Interests Repr 1 sh ( (AU:DOC) ) is now available.

Doctor Care Anywhere has agreed to acquire the GLP-1 and medicated weight-loss business of Outcome Diagnostics and MedicSpot for £850,000, securing a fast-growing, direct-to-consumer operation in the UK weight management market. The deal adds a complementary weight-loss service line to DCA’s established virtual care portfolio and strengthens its position in consumer-focused digital health.

The acquired business generated £5.3 million in revenue over the 12 months to March 2026 and is broadly breakeven on standalone EBITDA, implying a 0.16x EV-to-sales multiple. Funded entirely from DCA’s existing £7 million cash balance and positive operating cash flow, the transaction brings immediate revenue, an 11-person specialist team and cross-selling opportunities, while management highlights both the strategic acceleration it offers and the usual integration and execution risks.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:DOC) stock is a Hold with a A$0.20 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Doctor Care Anywhere Group PLC Shs Chess Depository Interests Repr 1 sh stock, see the AU:DOC Stock Forecast page.
