AGM Statement

Trading in-line with expectations

Consort Medical plc ("Consort Medical", "Consort", "The Group") (LSE: CSRT), today provides the following Annual General Meeting ("AGM") statement.

The Group continues to trade in line with the Board's expectations for the current financial year on a constant currency basis.

The Group notes the outcome of the UK's EU referendum and does not expect any fundamental changes to the Group's businesses as a result. Bespak and Aesica have a strong pedigree of providing excellent services to their international customer base and will continue to do so as the UK prepares to exit the EU, and thereafter. The Group will monitor any further developments in exit outcomes and refine its planning to address them.

Following the referendum decision, Sterling has weakened against many major currencies. Consort's foreign exchange exposure is mainly to the Euro; if exchange rates continue below those reported in FY2016, then foreign exchange translation benefits are expected, in line with the sensitivity guidance issued in the full year results for FY2016. Transactional foreign exchange effects are expected to be limited in the current year due to the protective forward currency hedging contracted by the Group.

As announced on 17 August 2016, the process to appoint Consort's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") successor to Richard Cotton is underway and further updates will be provided as appropriate.

The Group announced separately today the award of a new scale-up and supply agreement with AstraZeneca AB.

No new trading updates are to be made at Consort's AGM today.

Consort will announce its interim results for the six month period to 31 October 2016 on 6 December 2016.
