(AIM: EAH)
NOTICE OF RESULTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020
CONFIRMATION OF CONTINUED STRONG TRADING
On 11th September 2020, ECO Animal Health Group plc (the "Group") announced that the Group intended to publish its annual audited accounts for the year ended 31 March 2020 prior to 30 November 2020.
AIM has granted the Group an additional one month extension to the publication timetable in order to manage additional work arising from auditing the Group's international operations during the Covid-19 pandemic restrictions and against the backdrop of new auditors and new accounting policies adopted at the time of the most recent interim report. Accordingly, the Group will publish its annual audited accounts during December and prior to 31 December 2020. The Group's AGM will be held as soon as practicable thereafter.
The Group provided a trading update on 21 October 2020, noting that the revenue in the six months ended 30 September 2020 would be significantly ahead of management's expectations and the same period for the prior year. The Group confirms that strong trading has continued during November and, being mindful of the continuing global uncertainties and four months remaining until the end of the financial year, it is confident of meeting market expectations.
