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
Healthcare growth in revenue of 26.1% and
Underlying EBITDA of 16.3% was driven by
the performances of our Community
Pharmacy, TWC, Institutional Healthcare and
Contract Logistics businesses.
Productivity improvements in wholesale
operations due to higher volumes across our
sites and the new Brisbane facility.
Strong performance of our retail brands,
particularly TWC. We welcomed 16 new
stores to our TWC network.
The new 25,000m² facility in Sydney and
further expansion in Auckland has created
further growth in both countries.
Consumer Products performance was
affected by softer overseas demand,
reflective of the changes which have
impacted the daigou export channel.

ANIMAL CARE SEGMENT
Strong Revenue and Underlying EBITDA performance reflecting continued growth in our key brands
Revenue growth of $18.3m, or 9.5%, due to
the continued excellent performance of our
branded products portfolio and higher vet
wholesale volumes.
Our key brands Black Hawk and Vitapet
recorded strong uplifts in revenue both
growing their market share.
Black Hawk sales grew 9.7% due to
strong consumer support, continued
investment in marketing and maintaining
its price value proposition.
Vitapet’s strong sales growth of 14.7% is
due to a strong new product pipeline,
marketing support and improved ranging
in the Australian grocery channel.
