Zoono Group Limited (ASX: ZNO) ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

20 August 2020

Zoono Announces Full Year Results and Maiden Dividend

FY2020 Group Financial Highlights

  • Total revenue was NZ$38.3m, up NZ$36.5 from FY19

  • Operating EBITDA was NZ$20.6m, up NZ$23m from FY19

  • NPAT was $16.7m

  • Net assets were $21.0m (including Stock on hand $13.2m)

  • Maiden dividend – NZ$0.032 per share

Zoono Group Limited (Company) (ASX: ZNO) is pleased to report strong trading and financial results for full year 2020 with Group EBITDA up 944.5% on the prior corresponding period (FY19).

These results were primarily driven by the increased demand for the Company’s unique products, the efficacy of which is supported by over 100 independent laboratory test results.

When applied to surfaces, Zoono leaves behind a mono-molecular layer that bonds to the surface, protecting it from pathogens for extended periods. Its hand sanitiser also delivers long lasting protection.

Commenting on the results, Managing Director, Mr. Paul Hyslop, said the full year results clearly demonstrate increasing acceptance of the benefit of the Company’s long-lasting antimicrobial products, particularly during the current pandemic.

“The second half of the year was outstanding. The team has done an amazing job keeping up with the unprecedented worldwide demand for our products” Mr Hyslop said.

“Strong sales came from Australia and New Zealand in both the B2B and B2C markets. UK and Europe continue to deliver and, in Asia and China, we are making good progress. We have also recently bought back the US distributor and will be seeking to mirror the success of the UK operations in this region."

"Progress in the Middle East, Africa, Turkey, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh has similarly been made with several new distribution agreements. Zoono is becoming a true global company in the provision of antimicrobial protection."

Importantly, sales into the veterinary and animal health sector continue to grow. We expect this to continue and for this sector to materially contribute to the Company’s revenues going forward.
