AGM statement

Inspiration Healthcare Group plc (AIM: IHC), the global medical device company, will hold its Annual General Meeting at 11.30am today and the Chairman, Mr Mark Abrahams, will give the following statement to shareholders:

"We were delighted to post revenues of £15.5m for the year ended 31 January 2018 and deliver the Group's fifteenth consecutive year of revenue growth. Additionally, we recorded an Operating Profit of £1.2m, slightly ahead of expectations. All of which was achieved in an evolving and increasingly challenging medical devices regulatory environment.

Our plans to launch new products in the current financial year have been frustrated by the significant delays we have experienced in obtaining an updated Quality Management System certificate and a CE Mark approval for our upgraded Patient Warming System from our Notified Body.

In the last 48 hours, and much later than we expected, we received these two certificates and we will now endeavour to make up for lost time and minimise the impact of the delay through putting in place a number of cost saving measures across the Group. We remain confident that the projected full year operating result remains achievable and expect Group revenues will be weighted towards the second half of the financial year.

Last week it was announced by NeuroproteXeon Limited ("NPXe"), a company in which Inspiration Healthcare holds 10% of the current issued share capital (or 8.1% diluted for options in existence at the time of the announcement), that NPXe confirms that it is seeking to complete an IPO on AIM in the second half of 2018. We will continue to monitor developments with interest and will update shareholders accordingly."
