Outlook – adapting to a post pandemic environment

==> picture [249 x 167] intentionally omitted <==

  • We continue to monitor the economic and financial impacts of the pandemic

  • Supply constraints remain for the foreseeable future necessitating increased inventory

  • New Covid-19 variants, low vaccination rates and vaccination resistance lift risks of continuing disruption in local markets

  • However significant vaccination rates in target markets of US/Canada, Europe and China are positive for a return to normal

  • Travel restrictions are limiting the development of new markets and R&D clinical trials and encourage New Zealand authorities to give the question urgency especially in cases where business travellers have been vaccinated and present with a negative covid test

  • Dividend policy remains on the agenda as we progress debt reduction to the target of $25 - $30 million, linked to underlying earnings progress.

  • Targeting operating profit range remains between $18 million and $23 million.

A challenging year but growth potential remains strong

Positive achievements across all our key markets

  • Continued growth in key Australian market

  • Significant growth in product sales to Rest of the World

  • Significant margin improvement in Asia on forecast lower FY21 revenue

But Covid-19 has impeded our progress

  • Supply disruptions

  • Delays to product launches and regulatory approvals

  • Negotiations on licensing and distribution agreements have taken longer

  • Lockdowns, travel restrictions and foreign government-imposed limits to medicine supply disrupted sales

AFT remains very confident about its future and remains very excited about its potential to grow in its core Australasian markets and the potential of its intellectual property around the world

APPENDIX 4: History of AFT Pharmaceuticals

AFT was founded 23 years ago by Dr Hartley and Marree Atkinson. Since then AFT has remained an Atkinson-family controlled business and has grown organically into Australia and internationally

The 2015 IPO raised funds to pursue a more aggressive (and loss-making) R&D-led growth strategy. AFT has now returned to profitability as intended, as the company was prior to IPO

APPENDIX 5: GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATION

AFT has used non-GAAP measures when discussing financial performance in this document including underlying profit after tax and underlying operating profit. The directors and management believe that these measures provide useful information as they are used internally to evaluate performance of business units, to establish operational goals and to allocate capital.

Definitions:

Underlying profit after tax: Profit after tax less significant one-off non-recurring gain.
Underlying operating profit: Operating profit less significant one-off non-recurring gain.

Non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with NZ IFRS (New Zealand International Financial Reporting Standards) and are not uniformly defined, therefore the non-GAAP measures reported in this document may not be comparable with those that other companies report and should not be viewed in isolation or considered as a substitute for measures reported by AFT Pharmaceuticals in accordance with NZ IFRS.

The non-GAAP measures are not subject to audit or review.
