FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NuSep announces 30 June 2012 Full Year Results

Sydney, Australia 30[th] August 2012 - NuSep (ASX: NSP) wishes to advise the market of the preliminary full year results to 30[th] June 2012. In Summary:

Revenue $2,549,415 Up 42% Gross Margin $1,604,883 Up 44% EBITDA Loss ($1,128,774) Reduced by 56% Operational Loss ($ 727,843) Reduced by 41% Abnormal – Impairment of BioInquire Investment ($3,044,126) Net Loss ($4,924,039)

The company reported an EBITDA loss of $1,128,774 and an Operational loss of $727,843 for the year. These numbers tie back to the reported Net loss as follows:

Net Loss $4,924,039 Less Impairment & Depreciation $3,735,081 Less Interest & Taxes $ 60,184 EBITDA Loss $1,128,774 Less Singapore Expenses $ 400,931 Operational Loss $ 727,843

The company has focused during the financial year on the development and funding of the PrIME project in Singapore. This is now moving forward post the S$6m investment in PrIME Biologics Pte Ltd ( PrIME ), as announced to the market on 14[th] August 2012. This S$6m investment values PrIME business at S$60m (A$46m). NuSep holds 90% of PrIME Biologics post the S$6m investment and will sell down its shareholding to raise the investment required to fund this project. Ultimately NuSep expects to hold approximately 50% of PrIME.

On an operational level, the Consumables division has performed strongly and continues to grow with the appointment of a number of key overseas distributors. The division has delivered a healthy 48% Gross Margin in spite of the high Australian dollar which continues to impact our key US and European markets. In the coming financial year, the PrIME business will generate another income stream for NuSep through the supply of the PrIME equipment and associated membranes.

See the attached 4E for the detailed unaudited financials.

Outlook

The 2012 financial year has been one of solid growth and a reduced operational loss and preparation to take the company into the next phase of its development. The outlook for the 2013 financial year continues this trend with the potential for a whole new income stream from the ongoing supply of PrIME equipment and associates consumables.

Separately, the Company continues to negotiate with the third parties interested in funding the SpermSep business. The Board expects to update the market on these negotiations prior to the AGM. The Board intends to adopt a similar funding model with the SpermSep business as it has with the PrIME business by selling a percentage of NuSep’s shareholding in SpermGen Pty Ltd to fund this business. The Board believes that, given NuSep’s current share price, selling down its shareholding in SpermGen provides a better return to NuSep’s shareholders than raising the required funds from NuSep’s existing shareholders and significantly diluting them as a result.

The Board and Management believe that the building blocks for the growth have been put in place for a successful and rewarding next 12 months for our shareholders.
