CHAIRMAN’S ADDRESS – 2016 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Good morning ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the 2016 annual general meeting of Paragon Care. My name is Shane Tanner and I am the chairman of the company. Thank you for your attendance today.
It is with great pleasure that I update you on the company’s recent achievements and strategy going forward.
I say this every year, but the last 12 months have been another transformational period for Paragon Care. The highlights of 2016 were again characterised by strong operating performance from our core businesses, key acquisitions of like-minded businesses and an ongoing favourable macroeconomic environment underpinning continuous strong growth in the health care industry. Paragon is now one of the premier medical equipment, device and consumable suppliers listed on the ASX.
13 valuable accretive acquisitions over the last 7 years have supported strong organic and inorganic growth in a highly fragmented industry.
Paragon’s vision is to be Australia’s leading supplier of medical equipment, devices and consumables within the next 3 years.
Paragon has a highly aligned Board and management team with a long term supportive shareholder base. The Board, management and close associates currently own 8.8% of the company, which I see as a major plus.
For the year ended 30 June 2016, revenue was up 190% to A$93.4 million, EBITDA was up 227% to A$12.1 million and net profit after tax increased by 257% to A$7.5 million. Paragon’s tremendous financial performance can be attributed to not only a very strong and dedicated management team, but strong organic growth driven by growing demand for our capital equipment and growing consumables products from the acute, aged care and primary care markets. The key acquisitions during the year of Western Biomedical, Designs for Vision and Meditron were seamlessly integrated into our existing operations and provided additional revenue synergies through new products and new geographies.
Earnings per share was up 75% from 3.2 cents to 5.6 cents per share and fully franked dividends for the year totalled 2.2 cents per share, an increase of 57% on the prior year. The payout ratio of approximately 47% and was at the top end of Paragon’s targeted dividend payout ratio range of 4050%.
PARAGON CARE LIMITED ABN 76 064 551 426 11 Dalmore Drive, Scoresby Victoria, Australia 3179 Telephone: 1300 369 559 Facsimile: 61 3 8833 7890

The Company undertook a capital raising in October 2015 which was heavily oversubscribed to raise $47m to fund the acquisition of Designs for Vision, Western Biomedical and Meditron.
In the current financial year two key acquisitions have been made – MIDAS and Electro Medical were completed in July and October respectively.
MIDAS is a world first, fully customised interpretive reporting software platform for a wide range of diagnostic medical examinations. One in particular, radiology, provides significant savings in technician and radiologist time. MIDAS is highly complementary to Paragon’s existing customer base and sales channels.
Electro Medical Group specialise in the repair, maintenance and technology management of medical and scientific equipment in acute, aged and primary care markets. This acquisition allows Paragon to capitalise on the growing demand for the provision of preventative service and maintenance throughout the sector.
Both of these recent acquisitions are expected to be moderately accretive during FY17.
Paragon has enjoyed a strong start to FY17, with several key internal milestones achieved and strong growth seen across key financial metrics. After three months of FY17, the company’s EBITDA on a like for like basis is 12% up over the prior corresponding quarter and we are on track to deliver strong earnings growth for the full financial year.
Paragon has a number of exciting new products in its FY17 product range – including Rubbermaid, a recognised leader in the development and manufacture of medical carts. In addition, it’s “home grown” Stralus Aged Care Beds are gathering momentum and a number of key accounts have already been achieved. In addition, the sales of the new Thermi range of aesthetic products are strong.
Going forward, Paragon will continue with exactly the same strategy that it has adopted over the past few years. That is, to continue driving strong organic growth, bringing in a range of new and innovative products each year, and continuing to acquire strategic acquisitions that will be purchased sensibly and integrated successfully.
The industry we operate in continues to remain highly fragmented with a large number of privately owned small businesses regularly coming up for sale. This traditionally has been Paragon’s “sweet spot”.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our Managing Director Mark Simari and the entire Paragon Care team for their ongoing commitment to the company’s long-term success.
Shane Tanner Chairman of the Board of Directors
