AGM Statement

Science in Sport plc (AIM: SIS), the premium performance nutrition company serving elite athletes, sports enthusiasts and the gym lifestyle community, announces the following statement from its Chairman, John Clarke, ahead of the Company's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") to be held this morning.

"As previously announced, the Company had conducted a number of scenario analyses which modelled the impact of COVID-19 on revenues for the current financial year and into 2021. Trading is currently in line with the base scenario developed as part of our contingency planning. As expected, retail sales in all markets remain adversely affected compared with normal levels. However, we are making very strong progress with our e-commerce business, with our own PhD and SiS platforms performing well, and our Amazon business outperforming. Pricing improvements and supply chain synergies are delivering an improved gross margin. This, together with planned COVID-19 cost cutting measures now implemented, is protecting our strong cash position.

"The Company's financial position remains robust given performance in line with our base scenario. The proceeds from the £4.5 million placing in April 2020 means the Company has substantial headroom and can exit the current trading environment well placed to deliver on its long-term growth strategy. As a further contingency we put in place an £8.0 million invoice financing debt facility, which remains unused.

"Despite the continued high degree of uncertainty from the COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic impact, our strategy remains unchanged, focusing on science-led innovation, building brand equity, taking our share of e-commerce business and developing global markets. We are confident that we are well prepared to deliver on this strategy and will provide further details on progress in our half year results announcement on 16 September 2020.

"On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank all employees of the Group for their commitment to the Company in the face of the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of their dedication and professionalism, we have continued to serve customers throughout the first half of the year without interruption."
