COVID-19 MARKET UPDATE

Trading Conditions

Our wholesale, distribution and retail Healthcare businesses are essential services and critical in

ensuring continued and stable supply of healthcare, medical and pharmaceutical products to the

community.

Since our H1 FY20 results we have seen positive momentum across our businesses through to the

end of the 3

rd

quarter ended 31 March 2020. Both our Healthcare and Animal Care segments

generated solid revenue growth as a result of an increase in demand.

During the 3

rd

quarter, the Healthcare segment experienced unprecedented levels of

demand.

Significant investment over recent years in our Healthcare distribution network positioned

us well to meet the increased demand from customers.

COVID-19 may affect different areas of our diversified Healthcare and Animal Care business in

different ways during the next period of uncertain consumer demand.

Liquidity

Approximately A$200m of bank debt and working capital facilities was refinanced in March 2020

and, due to strong bank demand, the facility was upsized to A$250m.

We have a strong balance sheet and liquidity position to meet ongoing business needs and our

growth strategy.

On 21 April, EBOS advised of strong trading conditions to 31 March 2020 and confirmed its

balance sheet strength

HEALTHCARE SEGMENT

Significant growth in Australia from a strong underlying trading performance

the performances of our Community

Pharmacy, TWC, Institutional Healthcare and

Contract Logistics businesses.

operations due to higher volumes across our

sites and the new Brisbane facility.

particularly TWC. We welcomed 16 new
