Ebos Group Underperforms in Last 12 Months After Contract Loss, Management Shakeup, Jarden Says

Ebos Group (ASX:EBO, NZE:EBO) materially underperformed in the last 12 months after a change in group management and the loss of the Chemist Warehousecontract prompted a reset in earnings expectations, Jarden said in a note on Tuesday.Jarden trimmed its fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028 underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) estimates for the company after a review of the many moving parts mostly impacting the healthcare segment.At the underlying net profit after tax level, the changes also reflect higher net interest costs and shifting Origin Biologics from an associate to non-controlling interest in fiscal 2027. Jarden assumed that in fiscal 2028, the company would acquire the remaining non-controlling interests, in line with its existing financial liability raised on the balance sheet for AU$38 million.Near term, the healthcare segment is facing headwinds from fuel-related costs and ongoing competition in the community pharmacy segment, per the note.The investment firm retained its overweight rating on Ebos Group and cut the price target to NZ$30.50 from NZ$33.80.Ebos Group's Australian shares were down nearly 2% in recent Wednesday trade, while its Kiwi shares shed about 3%.

EBOS Group Lowers Fiscal 2026 EBITDA Guidance on Higher Energy Costs

EBOS Group (ASX:EBO, NZE:EBO) has lowered its fiscal 2026 underlying earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization guidance to about AU$610 million to AU$620 million, down from prior guidance of AU$615 million to AU$635 million, citing higher fuel and energy costs amid global supply disruptions and geopolitical risks, according to a Wednesday filing with the Australian and New Zealand bourses.The company said that additional costs of AU$5 million to AU$10 million are being incurred due to rising expenses in transport, logistics, and hydrocarbon-based consumables across its distribution-heavy operations in Australia and New Zealand, per the filing.The company expects that, while underlying demand remains stable, it will not be able to pass on all recent cost increases to customers this year due to essential healthcare service obligations and regulatory constraints, including community service obligation arrangements, the filing said.The company is engaging with stakeholders, including the Australian Government, on potential fuel cost recovery, but timing and outcomes remain uncertain, the filing added.
