EBOS said it expects to be able to generate further growth next year.
"The group's portfolio of businesses has proven to be very resilient throughout the
Covid-19 pandemic, however lockdowns in New Zealand and Australia are evidence of the material uncertainties that exist and that may impact upon the group's future trading performance," it said.
Capital expenditure next year was expected to remain elevated as a result of the completion of the new pet care manufacturing facility, which will result in additional expenditure of about $30 million over and above business-as-usual capex, it said.
EBOS said there would be significant capital investment in its animal care segment and a number of strategic acquisitions in its healthcare segment that further expand and diversify its earnings.
The company will invest about A$80m in a new state of the art pet food manufacturing facility in New South Wales.
Post balance date, EBOS acquired another medical devices distribution business that will expand its institutional healthcare division.
Shares in EBOS last traded at $32.30, up 90c or 2.9 per cent from Tuesday's close.
