AGM statement
Alliance Pharma plc (AIM: APH), the international consumer healthcare company, will hold its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") at 09:00am this morning. At the meeting, the Group's Chair, David Cook, will make the following statement:
"Sales for the first four months of the year are ahead of the equivalent period in 2022.
"In-market demand for Kelo-Cote™ in China has continued the recovery we referenced in our preliminary results announcement in March and is building in-line with our expectations.
"Whilst the business is on track to meet the Board's full year expectations for revenue and adjusted EBITDA, adverse currency movements, particularly the recent strengthening of UK sterling against the US dollar, and the rising interest rate environment, mean that full year adjusted profit before tax is expected to be marginally below current expectations.
"Further detail will be provided in the interim trading update scheduled for 18 July 2023."
