The 17% lift in profit was in line with expectations, pushing Healthcare shares up another 5c to $10.75 at press time yesterday.
Chief executive Michael Daniell said the company was planning a number of
significant new product introductions, including sleeping masks, humidifier systems, breathing circuits and patient warmers.
The result included realised and unrealised foreign exchange gains of $23 million after tax.
Operating revenue for the company's core product range grew 17% in US dollar terms over the previous year.
Mr Daniell said the company expected a continuation of strong US dollar revenue growth.
