    Then look at what company Zuelig holds 40% of.
    If you find it is Ebos then you are on the right track.
    At this point in time you would most probably be right to think EBO already controls GXH,as well as being their major supplier.
    My guess if Andrew Bagnell ever wants out, then EBO will take it over.
    Otherwise, should EBO decide there are more benefits for them to have, they will make a takeover bid for GXH.
    Note Zuelig representitive and EBO director Peter Williams is a GXH director.
    Thanks for sharing Percy, great researching, really helpful info

    NZ Pharmacies quite inefficient compared to many other countries. Where else would they ask a customer during a quiet time to wait 15 min to dispense their prescription medicine?

    About time competitors moving in and creating a bit of excitement ...

    Good points. GXH has some strategic advantages with their acquisition of general practises, real estate and locations.

    Feel it is currently relatively undervalued yet there is additional pressure
    The company is proactive and needs to keep up with the competition or outperform in service and convenience.

    A fast growing market with a bigger population base and more and more out of the box demand for personally solvable health issues.

    Had myself my first over 100% RIO with this one some years ago. Was a great performer. Feel that cycle is coming close to potential again.

    Good divi stock at this price with a big upswing potential in share price increase.

    Hmm - don't follow them that close, but why would the appointment of an interim CFO be marked as "price sensitive"?

    This guy that good - or that bad? He seems to have a history with GFX, which probably is good. However - just wondering - given he worked as well with Evolve Education, maybe he is deemed as too experienced in processing red numbers?

    Good point BP.

    IMO it is showing credibility and ability to manage the current situation.

    Some reporting due in the next week. Divi date Mid June. Paid towards end of June.

    Let's hope there's some good news in there. Plenty of scope for pharmacy and medical. Online store and home delivery options.

    Disc. Holding small parcel. 👌

    GXH Annual Report Out.

    Result summary
    • Revenue of $567m (+5.6%)
    • EBITDA at $36.9m (+2.3%)
    • Operating Profit $29.4m (-2.2%)
    • Net Profit after Tax Attributable to the Parent Shareholders
    of $16.1m (+3.2%)
    • Pharmacy Revenue flat at $340m, Operating Profit down 5.5% at $27.3m
    on the back of a record low cold and flu winter season and a decline in
    gross margin as the company responded to competitive pressures
    • Medical performed strongly with Revenue up 33.8% and Operating
    Profit up 20.4% to $4.4m driven by an increase in enrolled patient
    numbers from organic growth and selective acquisitions
    • Community Health Revenue up 9.3% but Operating Profit $0.1m (down
    $1.1m) as the division continues to struggle with under-funding from
    various legislative changes
    • Operating Cash Flow $29.5m (down $3.7m)
    • Net Debt $32.5m (reduction of $6.0m)

    Long term I believe this business has many more opportunities for growth. I am in favour of their direction with medical centre operations. Aware the pharmacy side is taking a slower growth path due to competition, yet they could grow in online sales themselves if they were to increase their focus in this area.

    Reasonable divi 👌
