Pre-Close Trading Update

 

Winsford, UK: Advanced Medical Solutions Group plc (AIM: AMS.L), the surgical and advanced woundcare specialist company, today announces an update on trading prior to its close period for the year ending 31 December 2014.

 

The Group continues to make good progress, as highlighted in the 2014 Interim Results announcement on 10 September 2014, and, despite revenue being impacted by currency, the Board expects revenue and profitability for the full year 2014 to be in line with current market expectations.

 

The Group also announces it has agreed a new five year £30 million multi-currency revolving credit facility with an accordion option under which AMS can request up to an additional £20 million on the same terms. The previous facility was due to expire in 2015 so the Company is taking advantage of favourable credit conditions to put in place a more suitable facility to support the Group's growth ambitions. The new facility is provided jointly by the Group's existing bankers, HSBC, as well as The Royal Bank of Scotland PLC, and replaces the existing £4 million facility. It is unsecured on the assets of the Group and is currently undrawn. The Company has continued to increase its net cash position which was £10.2 million as at 30 June 2014.

 

Chris Meredith, Chief Executive Officer of AMS, said:

"The Group continues to deliver strong organic growth and, with available cash funds and the new bank facility, is in a strong position to deliver further growth."

 

The Group expects to publish its Preliminary Results for the year to 31 December 2014 on Wednesday 4 March 2015.
