Pre-Close Trading Update

Winsford, UK, 15 December: Advanced Medical Solutions Group plc (AIM: AMS.L), the surgical and advanced wound care specialist company, today announces an update on trading for the year ending 31 December 2016.

The Group continues to make good progress and the Board expects profitability to be in line with current market expectations, whilst revenue is expected to be ahead of market expectations, aided by the weakness in sterling against the US dollar and the euro.

The immediate benefit of the weakness of sterling to profit is delayed as the Group's policy is to hedge significant transactional exposure by using forward contracts and options and aims to have at least 70% of its estimated transactional exposure for the next twelve months hedged.

Chris Meredith, Chief Executive Officer of AMS, said: "The Group continues to deliver strong organic growth from its existing product portfolio. This growth is further supported by our Research and Development activities that provide product innovation allowing us to maintain our leadership position in our chosen market segments. AMS is well positioned to continue on its growth trajectory."

The Group expects to publish its Preliminary Results for the year to 31 December 2016 in March 2017.
