Estia Health is an Australian aged care operator floated by Quadrant Private Equity in December 2014 when it was valued at $725 million.[1]

It operates 69 facilities across Australia and is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange.

The company lost about a sixth of its value in September 2018 when the government announced a public inquiry into misconduct in the aged care sector, following the Australian Broadcasting Corporation produced a two-part documentary focusing on alleged neglect and abuse of older people.[2]

It was founded by Peter Arvanitis. He resigned in 2016.[3]

In 2018 it had the largest proportion of women in its executive team.[4]

It acquired 4 residential aged care homes and 2 development sites worth more than $100m from Premier Health Care Group in 2022. They will add 409 resident places to their portfolio and two development sites could deliver a further 160-179.[5]

Estia Health was a public company traded on the Australian Securities Exchange until December 2023 when it was taken private by Bain Capital.[6]
