Half Year Trading Update

Science in Sport plc (AIM: SIS), a leading sports nutrition company, is pleased to announce the following pre-close trading update ahead of its financial results for the half year ended 30 September 2013.

The Board is pleased to report another period of significant revenue growth with sales expected to be up 23 per cent, compared with the same period last year, at approximately £3.95 million.

Revenue growth in the half year has been driven by strong sales of isotonic gels, food bars and hydration tablets and reflects the Company's on-going investment in product innovation, sales and marketing.

The revenue growth highlights the strength of the SiS brand and the resilience of the sports nutrition category. The growth was evident in all channels including major grocers, high street outlets, independent retailers and e-commerce, as well as in international markets.

Pre-tax profits for the half year are expected to be in line with management expectations and the Board remains confident of the outlook for continued revenue growth in the full year.

Science in Sport intends to issue its half year results in early December 2013.
