AGM Statement

Alliance Pharma plc (AIM: APH), the speciality pharmaceutical company, will hold its Annual General Meeting in London later this morning.

Michael Gatenby, the Company's Chairman, will make the following comments:

"Trading in the first four months of 2013 has been 6% ahead of the same period last year, with turnover of £15.1 million.

"HydromolTM sales continue to grow well.  There have been reduced sales of Nu-SealsTM in Ireland although measures to counteract generic competition are helping to mitigate the impact.

"Sales of the products acquired in 2012 were £1.8 million.  Adjusting for these acquired products, and for the unavailability of ImmuCystTM, sales have shown underlying growth of 5%.

"We continue to assess a number of acquisition opportunities and remain confident of bringing further transactions to completion in the near future."
