Operational Highlights:
· Group revenue increased by 63% to £110.8 million and by 66% at constant currency (2024 H1: £68.0 million) with organic growth supplemented by the impact of the Peters Surgical acquisition that completed 1st July 2024. Overall performance was in line with management expectations including a strong showing from the existing AMS business (excluding Peters) growing revenues by 13% and by 14% at constant currency. Revenues from Peters Surgical products have now been allocated to relevant Group product sales categories in the Surgical business unit and will be reported as such on an ongoing basis, reflecting continued integration progress.
o Surgical revenues increased by 81% to £87.9 million (2024 H1: £48.4 million) with £34.3 million contributed by Peters Surgical during the Period. Good progress has been made on the integration of Peters Surgical and Syntacoll with positive contributions from both businesses.
o US LiquiBand® grew by 14% at reported currency and by 18% at constant currency, reflecting continued strong momentum from the 2023 renegotiation of distribution agreements with key partners. ROW LiquiBand® grew 10% at reported currency and by 11% at constant currency supported by commercial synergies following the Peters Surgical acquisition, including the targeting of AMS products into specialist cardiovascular markets where Peters Surgical has a strong presence.
o Biosurgical products grew by 37% at reported currency and by 40% at constant currency, driven by enhanced manufacturing efficiencies and significant improvement in yields of collagen products, following the integration of Syntacoll which has also significantly boosted the performance of antibiotic eluting collagens.
o Advanced Woundcare revenues increased by 17% at reported currency, and 18% at constant currency, to £22.9 million (2024 H1: £19.5 million) recovering from prior period declines, driven by strong ordering from OEM partners that more than offset the previously reported declining Organogenesis royalty.
· The restructuring of the Woundcare business was successfully completed at the end of Q1 2025. The Board remains confident in achieving its targeted double-digit operating margin from the start of Q2 onwards as the newly refocussed operations have made a strong start, reporting strong revenue growth during the Period.
· Good progress in starting to implement the commercial and operational synergies within the enlarged Group and the Board can confirm the anticipated achievable benefits remain in line with previous expectations. For example, the strong reputation and presence of the Peters Surgical products and sales teams in specialist cardio-vascular markets is already starting to provide direct revenue synergies for AMS products that are well suited to that space, such as LiquiBand XL and GENTA-Coll.
Advancement of the US regulatory programme for Biosurgical and Suture products remains a strategic priority, and the Group has made good progress towards planned US launches anticipated next year.
Financial Highlights:
· Gross margins reduced to 53.5% (2024 H1: 54.3%) due to the previously reported reduction in Organogenesis royalty income stream, the impact of Peters Surgical which has a slightly lower gross margin and improved performance of Woundcare which has a lower gross margin than Surgical.
· Adjusted EBITDA increased by 42% to £24.4 million (2024 H1: £17.2 million) with adjusted EBITDA margin at 22.0% (2024 H1: 25.3%) for the reasons set out above. Reported profit before tax increased to £8.5 million (2024 H1: £5.7 million) as a result of the Peters Surgical acquisition and against a prior period which included significant acquisition-related exceptional items.
· Net Debt decreased to £50.1 million from 2024 year-end net debt position of £55.8 million (2024 H1: net cash of £55.6 million prior to the acquisition of Peters Surgical), driven by continued good cash generation, which will drive further deleveraging.
· Given strong business performance and the Board's continued confidence in the outlook, the interim dividend is increased by 10% to 0.85p per share (2024 H1: 0.77p).
Outlook:
· We expect to sustain good growth across our enlarged Surgical portfolio, supported by strong end-user demand, product innovation and geographic expansion. Woundcare, having completed its restructuring, is now a cash-generative business with stable margins.
· Our US regulatory programmes for Biosurgical and Suture products are progressing and will underpin medium-term growth. The strength of our cash generation and disciplined capital allocation mean we are on track to reduce leverage to approximately 1x EBITDA by year-end 2025, with further rapid deleveraging thereafter.
· The Board remains confident of delivering full year 2025 revenue and EBITDA in line with expectations and believes that AMS is well positioned to drive sustained growth, margin expansion and long-term value creation.
Commenting on the interim results, Chris Meredith, CEO of AMS, said: "We are pleased to report another period of strong revenue growth, driven by continued momentum across key products. These results also highlight the strength and resilience of our increasingly diversified portfolio and global footprint, which help to mitigate the impact of order phasing and market specific fluctuations. Integration of last year's acquisitions remain on track, with improvements to systems and manufacturing being made to reduce backorders, emerging commercial synergies in geographies, such as France and India, and in specialty areas, such as cardiovascular, set to strengthen H2 2025 and beyond. We are also making solid progress toward upcoming US product launches. We believe these initiatives will significantly enhance our earnings growth potential over the medium to long-term."

Chief Executive's Review
Summary
The interim results to the end of June 2025 reflect the significant progress made in consolidating the enlarged Surgical business and completing the restructuring of Advanced Woundcare.
Group revenue increased by 63% on a reported basis and 66% on a constant currency basis in the Period to £110.8 million (2024 H1: £68.0 million) due to Peters Surgical revenues of £34.3 million (which were not in the prior period) and growth in the rest of the Group. Excluding Peters Surgical, revenue increased by 13% and by 14% at constant currency.
Revenue from the Peters Surgical products has been allocated into the Group's product categories: Suture, Clips and VTO; Internal Fixation and Sealants; and Other Distributed Products.
The integration of Peters Surgical remains on track to deliver the anticipated operational and commercial synergies and the new Syntacoll acquisition is already contributing positively to sales growth of collagen products. We have successfully completed the planning of operational synergies, estimated at £10 million annual benefit, and are now well into the initial months of the execution phase which is due for completion before the end of 2027. Commercial synergies are also progressing well, with new revenues already being generated and incremental revenue from commercial synergies expected to be in the region of £5 million to £10 million within five years of the acquisition. Integration costs are expected to be incurred up to 2027.
An earn-out payment of £0.7 million was made in H1 2025 relating to Peters Surgical, with no further payments expected.
Momentum from key products, especially end-market demand has continued into Q3 supported by improvements to systems and manufacturing which have relieved back order and supply issues.
Launch of new products, line extensions and cross selling is and will be a key part of our strategy to leverage new geographic market footprints and for direct sales in France, Belgium, India, Poland (Peters) and the UK, Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic (AMS). We look forward to a steady stream of launches over time, a number of which are detailed in the table below including in the USA, Asia and China. We believe the latter markets are underpenetrated and represent significant opportunity for growth in the longer term:

The Group is also making good progress in advancing FDA regulatory filings which are expected to support deeper penetration of the US market and enhance meaningful profit growth potential over the medium to long-term.
Surgical Business Unit
Revenue increased by 81% on a reported basis and 86% on a constant currency basis in the Period to £87.9 million (2024 H1: £48.4 million). Excluding Peters Surgical, surgical revenue increased by 11% and by 13% at constant currency.

Global LiquiBand® revenues increased by 12% to £24.5 million (2024 H1: £21.8 million) and 15% at constant currency.
Following the successful implementation of the new US marketing strategy, which involved renegotiations with key US distribution partners, more differentiated product branding and increased partner engagement, US revenues for the LiquiBand® portfolio increased to £15.7 million (2024 H1: £13.8 million), growth of 18% at constant currency and with all distribution partners performing well and an element of partner order phasing.
As already mentioned, the strong reputation and presence of the Peters Surgical products and sales teams in specialist cardio-vascular markets is already starting to provide direct revenue synergies for AMS products that are well suited to that space, such as LiquiBand® XL.
In the Rest of World, revenues rose by 10% at reported currency and by 11% at constant currency to £8.8 million (2024 H1: £8.0 million) supported by sustained end-user demand across multiple markets. Commercial synergies with Peters Surgical are already beginning to increase sales momentum in Europe.
The regulatory process for AMS's first topical adhesive approval in China continues to progress well. The clinical trial has been completed and the CFDA filing remains on track for submission by year-end with commercial launch anticipated in H2 2026.
Internal Fixation and Sealants - Inventory reducing, growth building
As highlighted in March of this year, H1 2024 included substantial US launch orders that were unlikely to be repeated in the current Period. As a consequence revenues decreased by 6% on a reported basis to £3.6 million (2024 H1: £3.8 million) and 4% on a constant currency basis.
LIQUIFIXTM US commercial demand continues to build, supported by contracts now in place with three major GPOs. End market sales are progressing steadily driven by increased activity and focus from TelaBio. Initial launch inventories delivered in H1 2024 are being drawn down, with repeat orders already being received in line with expectations. Additionally, resolution of the prior quality issues is also helping to improve the market uptake.
Outside the US, our commercial teams are assessing how best to optimise and grow the enlarged portfolio with IFABOND® providing additional indications and characteristics as well as the opportunity to deliver commercial synergies.
Clinical evidence and KOL support continues to build for SEAL-G®, our novel, biological sealant for internal surgery. Current clinical activity following the 160 patient 2023 GI study indicates a supportive trend of patient benefits including reduced severity of leakage in pancreatic surgery and observations of potential reduced post-operative stoma in bowel surgery. Pending further data, this could be highly meaningful for both patient outcomes and health system costs. Clinical activity on multiple fronts should provide more data by end 2025 and into 2026, including the start of a potential large scale UK randomised clinical study.
SEAL-G® sales have been muted to date but we have seen an encouraging small uptick in revenues going into H2 indicating building KOL interest. Longer term, the development of the next-generation device, together with accumulating clinical data, will help realise the full potential of this technology.
Suture, Clips and VTO - Positive effect of Peters acquisition
Revenue increased by 275% to £38.8 million (2024 H1: £10.4 million) and by 283% at constant currency following the acquisition of Peters Surgical on 1st July 2024.
The RESORBA ® portfolio continued to deliver a strong performance during the first half.
Revenue from the ex-Peters Suture, Clips and VTO portfolio was muted after being impacted by supply issues causing increased backorders, US tariffs and by order phasing from key distribution partners that is weighted towards the second half of the year.
Good progress has been made in resolving the supply chain issues giving confidence that backorders can be reduced and accelerated growth delivered from H2 2025. End user demand remains robust across the portfolio and combining the Peters Surgical and RESORBA sales teams is expected to strengthen suture sales going forwards.
Following the Peters acquisition, the Group is aiming for deeper penetration of the US suture market and is assessing options for the timing of US launches, in consideration of the delayed approval of one of the Peters Surgical cardiovascular suture families, where additional biocompatibility testing is needed that will run into FY27.
The Group also sees significant potential in the wider commercialisation of the Peters Surgical Clips and VTO portfolio in the years ahead.
Biosurgical Devices - Strong performance by collagen products
R evenue increased by 37% to £13.0 million (2024 H1: £9.5 million) and by 40% at constant currency, including sales associated with Syntacoll acquired in April 2024.
Underlying growth was driven by a strong performance in collagen products, supported by enhanced manufacturing efficiency and the subsequent resolution of back-orders experienced in 2024. The acquisition of Syntacoll has also positively impacted sales of antibiotic-eluting collagens.
The Group sees enormous US potential for its collagen and bone substitutes, particularly the drug-eluting products that will follow initial drug-free variants. By the end of 2026, the Group expects to achieve its first ever collagen US approval as well as EU and US approvals for its innovative Freeze-Dried Bone Substitute (FDBS). US approvals and launch of drug-eluting variants of both products are planned in subsequent years.
Other Distributed Products - Positive effect of Peters acquisition
Revenue increased by 163% on a reported basis and 169% on a constant currency basis to £8.0 million (2024 H1: £3.0 million), predominantly due to the addition of Peters Surgical.
Woundcare - Strong recovery from prior period decline
Revenue for the Woundcare Business Unit increased by 17% in the Period to £22.9 million (2024 H1: £19.5 million) on a reported basis and by 18% on a constant currency basis, making a strong recovery from the prior period decline. The previously announced restructuring of the Woundcare Business Unit was successfully completed as planned by the end of Q1 2025 resulting in reduced investment in lower-margin areas and a sharper focus on higher-margin products. The Board remains confident in achieving double-digit operating margins from Q2 2025.

Infection and Exudate Management - Solid recovery from prior adverse order phasing
Infection and Exudate Management revenue increased by 26% to £21.6 million (2024 H1: £17.2 million) on both a reported and constant currency basis which reflects a recovery from adverse order phasing in the prior period. Several long-standing development projects have now been completed and are beginning to contribute positively to revenue. In addition, new OEM contracts secured during the Period have also further supported growth.
Other Woundcare - Lower royalties as expected
Other Woundcare comprises royalties, fees and woundcare sealants. Revenue reduced by 46% at reported currency and by 45% at constant currency to £1.3 million (2024 H1: £2.3 million) as a result of lower royalty income from the Group's licensing arrangement with Organogenesis, as previously announced.
US Tariffs
Export order volumes were initially impacted by US tariffs, especially in the early period where tariff rates were substantially higher, although normal ordering has now resumed. Based on current tariff rates and contractual arrangements, it is estimated that the annual cost of tariffs could settle at between £1 million and £2 million p.a (approximately 2% - 4% of EBITDA). The Group continues to actively manage its exposure to US tariffs through ongoing reviews of contracts with its partners and supply chain optimisation.
Environmental, Social & Governance
The new Group Sustainability Team made good progress in the Period, publishing the first Carbon Reduction Plan for the enlarged Group, which covered all sites and reinforces our Net Zero ambition for 2045. Our next focus will be on creating a detailed action plan in order to file to be aligned with the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) in 2026. Going forward, our EDI Committee (AMS Together) and ESG Rep program will continue to engage with employees and ensure our activities reflect the new Purpose, Mission and Values. We have also started a double materiality analysis, which is required for the Corporate Social Responsibility Directive (CSRD), for the enlarged Group. The outcomes will help us adjust the ESG long-term strategy.
Stakeholders
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank the Group's committed staff, partners and other stakeholders, without whose help and commitment the achievements during the Period would not have been possible.
About our Business Units
Surgical
The Surgical Business Unit includes tissue adhesives, sutures, biosurgical devices and internal fixation devices marketed under the AMS brands LiquiBand ® , RESORBA ® , LiquiBandFix8 ® , LIQUIFIX TM , Peters Surgical, IFABOND ® and Vitalitec.

LiquiBand ® is a range of topical skin adhesives, incorporating medical grade cyanoacrylate in combination with purpose-built applicators. These products are used to close and protect a broad variety of surgical and traumatic wounds.
Internal Fixation and Sealants
AMS's internal fixation portfolio has been strengthened with the addition of IFABOND ® to the existing LIQUIFIX TM / LiquiBandFix8 ® range.
LIQUIFIX TM / LiquiBandFix8 ® secures meshes inside the body with accurately delivered drops of fast-setting butyl cyanoacrylate adhesive, whereas IFABOND ® uses hexyl cyanoacrylate that is more flexible and resorbable and has European approvals not only for mesh fixation, but also for tissue fixation, prolapse repair and bariatric surgery.
Suture, Clips and VTO
The RESORBA ® portfolio of general, dental and ophthalmic sutures is strengthened and complemented by the sutures, clips and Vascular Temporary Occlusion ('VTO') devices from the Peters acquisition that also bring strong Cardio-Vascular specialisation and brand recognition.
Biosurgical devices
The Biosurgical Devices category comprises antibiotic-loaded collagen sponges, collagen membranes and cones, oxidised cellulose, synthetic bone substitutes and bio-absorbable screws.
Other Distributed Products
The Other Distributed products category comprises products distributed through AFS Medical in Austria and Peters Surgical in France, including minimally invasive access ports and laparoscopic instruments. This category excludes sales of LiquiBandFix8 ® which are recorded within the Internal Fixation and Sealants category.
Woundcare
The Woundcare Business Unit is comprised of the Group's multi-product portfolio of advanced woundcare dressings sold under its partners' brands and the ActivHeal ® label, plus a portfolio of specialist medical bulk materials and multi-layer woundcare products.
Financial Review
IFRS reporting
The Group uses alternative performance measures as we believe this provides both management and investors with a more effective comparison of the Group's trading performance. These measures are not defined in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and, therefore, are considered to be non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) measures. Accordingly, the relevant IFRS measures are also presented where appropriate. AMS uses such measures consistently at the half-year and full-year and reconciles them as appropriate. Constant currency revenue growth is a non-GAAP measure used to compare revenue on a like-for-like basis. Adjusted operating margin and profit, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted profit before tax and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures that allow the impacts of exceptional items, amortisation and the movement in long-term acquisition liabilities to be separately identified and to provide a more effective comparison of the Group's profitability. Net debt/cash is an additional non-GAAP measure used and provides a useful overview of the Group's financial position.
Overview
Following the transformative acquisition of Peters Surgical in 2024, The Group's revenue has increased by 63% at reported currency to £110.8 million (2024 H1: £68.0 million) and by 66% at constant currency, as summarised in the Chief Executive's Review.
Gross profit increased to £59.3 million (2024 H1: £36.9 million) as a result of the Peters Surgical acquisition although gross margin decreased to 53.5% (2024 H1: 54.3%) as Peters delivers a lower average gross margin as well as the impact of the declining Organogenesis royalty. The strong performance of Woundcare has also diluted the average gross margin achieved by the Group.
Administration expenses, before exceptional items, were £44.3 million (2024 H1: £25.0 million) which includes approximately £13 million relating to Peters Surgical. Investment in R&D, sales and marketing has increased to support further growth, whilst overall costs have increased in a number of support functions to manage and integrate the enlarged Group.
Exceptional items totalling £3.0 million (2024 H1: £7.5 million) have been incurred in the period as a result of the Group's transformation projects to deliver significant synergies following the acquisition of Peters Surgical and Syntacoll in 2024 as summarised in the operational highlights section.
Investment in R&D has increased to £6.9 million (2024 H1: £5.6 million) following the Peters Surgical acquisition. This represents 6.2% (2024 H1: 8.2%) of revenue which is a decline as Peters has lower R&D spend as a proportion of revenue when compared to historical AMS investment levels. Additionally the amount of R&D investment required to comply with the Medical Device Regulation ("MDR") continues to decline as demonstrated by the lower levels of R&D capitalisation in the period.

Amortisation of acquired intangible assets increased to £5.2 million (2024 H1: £2.5 million) due to the impact of the Peters Surgical acquisition in July 2024.
Adjusted operating profit 6 , which excludes amortisation of acquired intangibles and exceptional items, increased by 35% to £18.9 million (2024 H1: £14.0 million) whilst the adjusted operating margin decreased by 350bps to 17.0% (2024 H1: 20.5%) due to the dilutive impact of Peters Surgical which currently achieves lower levels of operating margin than the legacy AMS Surgical business.
6 Reconciled in note 19 of the financial information. Excludes the impact of exceptional items and amortisation of acquired intangibles
Movement in long-term acquisition liabilities of Sealantis, AFS, Connexicon and Peters resulted in a net credit of £0.2 million (2024 H1: £0.9 million credit), as a result of the £0.7 million FY24 Peters earn-out being marginally lower than initially expected. The final €0.5 million contingent earn-out payment relating to the 2022 acquisition of AFS was made in the period after it successfully met the FY24 EBITDA milestone.
The Group delivered adjusted EBITDA of £24.4 million (2024: £17.2 million), a 42% increase following the Peters acquisition and change from a net interest received of £1.8 million in the prior period to a £2.3 million net interest expense position in the current period.

Adjusted profit before tax increased by 11% to £16.4 million (2024 H1: £14.8 million), despite numerous headwinds including US tariffs and the UK governments increase in employer national insurance. Reported profit before tax increased to £8.5 million (2024 H1: £5.7 million) as a result of the significant exceptional items incurred in the prior period.

The Group's effective corporation tax rate, reflecting the blended tax rates in the countries where we operate and including UK patent box relief, increased to 27.2% (2024 H1: 26.7%) with the main driver being ongoing strong performance in the US where the effective tax rate has increased and non-deductible tax losses in certain jurisdictions which increases the Group's effective rate.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share as defined in note 4 of the financial information, increased by 9% to 5.67p (2024 H1: 5.21p) reflecting the Group's ongoing growth. Diluted earnings per share increased by 48% to 2.84p (2024 H1: 1.92p) whilst basic earnings per share increased by 48% to 2.89p (2024: 1.95p) as a result of significantly more exceptional items incurred in the prior period.
The Board intends to pay an interim dividend of 0.85p per share on 24 October 2025 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 26 September 2025. This is a 10% increase on the interim dividend paid in respect of the first half of 2025 reflecting the Board's ongoing confidence in the future growth in the Group.

Surgical
Surgical revenues increased by 81% to £87.9 million (2024 H1: £48.4 million) at reported currency and increased by 86% at constant currency. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 730 bps to 24.9% (2024 H1: 32.2%) due to the dilutive impact of Peters Surgical which currently has a lower margin than the legacy AMS Surgical business.
Woundcare
Woundcare revenues increased by 17% to £22.9 million (2024 H1: £19.5 million) at reported currency and 18% at a constant currency, offsetting declines in the prior period despite the declining Organogenesis royalty. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased by 160 bps to 13.2% (2024 H1: 11.6%) predominately due to increased volumes and a focus on higher margin products although the declining Organogenesis royalty adversely impacts margin.
Currency
The Group hedges significant currency transaction exposure by using forward contracts and aims to hedge approximately 80% of its estimated transactional exposure for the next 18 months. In the first half of the year, approximately one third of sales were invoiced in Euros and approximately one third were invoiced in US Dollars. Following the acquisition of Peters Surgical, the Group has facilities in a number of additional countries including Thailand and India with associated currency exposure which are not believed to be material at this time. This will remain under consideration as the Group continues to grow.
The Group estimates that a 10% movement in the £:US$ or £:€ exchange rate will impact Sterling revenues by approximately 2.6% and 4.7% respectively and in the absence of any hedging this would have an impact on the Group operating margin of 1.6% and 0.2% percentage points respectively. Given the significant cost base in Euro currency, the Euro currency transaction exposure has a minimal impact on Group Operating Margin, and hence the Group has decided to only hedge US Dollar currency transaction exposure over the next 18 months.
Cash Flow
Adjusted net cash inflow from operating activities has increased to £18.4 million (2024 H1: £10.8 million) due to increased operating profit when excluding the impact of exceptional items. Net cash inflow from operating activities increased significantly to £15.1 million (2024 H1: £7.0 million). The prior period included significant acquisition related payments in relation to the Peters Surgical acquisition. Additional information on working capital movements is explained below.

At the end of the Period, net debt stands at £50.1 million, a decrease from the year-end position of £55.8 million as the Group was able to use positive operational cash flows to reduce its debt. The Group repaid £8.0 million of its joint facility with NatWest and HSBC which stands at £64 million. The facility comprised of £60 million outstanding on Facility A, a £60 million term loan facility with the first £5 million annual repayment due on 1st July 2025 and £4 million outstanding on Facility B, a £30 million multi-currency revolving credit facility. The interest rate on both facilities is based on SONIA plus a margin based on the Groups net leverage. This margin dropped from 1.75% to 1.5% during the period.
£4.5 million of borrowings has been received during the period from the Peters Surgical factoring facility.
The Groups covenants require Interest cover to be not less than 4.0:1.0 and net leverage in respect of each relevant period shall not exceed 3.0:1.0. Interest cover is calculated as a ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Finance Charge in respect of any relevant period. Net leverage is calculated as a ratio of Total Net Debt on the last day of that relevant period to Adjusted EBITDA in respect of that relevant period.
In the first half of 2025, receivables decreased by £2.3 million (2024 H1: £2.9 million increase) from a particularly high year-end point. Debtor days decreased to 49 from 53 days at year-end (2024 H1: 47 days) which was noted at year-end as being slightly higher than usual.
Trade, other payables and other non-current liabilities declined slightly to £37.0 million against the year-end position of £37.6 million as a result of earn-out payments being made in the period. Creditor days of 35 days was consistent with the year-end position of 35 days and marginally below the previous period reporting (2024 H1: 37 days).
Inventory levels increased by £6.8 million (2024 H1: £2.5 million increase) as the Group has built Inventory to support growth as well as resolving certain back-order situations within a number of ex-Peters Surgical sites. Inventory cover for the period has increased to 6.6 months of supply in comparison to 6.0 months at year-end (2024 H1: 7.3 months) which is required to fulfil the strong H2 order book as well as manage supply chain risks appropriately.
In the period, the group invested £4.1 million in capital equipment, R&D and regulatory costs, an increase from the prior period (2024 H1: £3.8 million) as the additional investment following the Peters Surgical acquisition has been largely offset by reducing levels of investment required for MDR.
Tax payments decreased to £2.3 million (2024 H1: £2.9 million) which is consistent with expense in the income statement.

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted EPS is calculated on the same basis as basic EPS but with the further adjustment to the weighted average shares in issue to reflect the effect of all potentially dilutive share options. The number of potentially dilutive share options is derived from the number of share options and awards granted to employees where the exercise price is less than the average market price of the Company's ordinary shares during the period.
Adjusted earnings per share
Adjusted EPS is calculated after adding back amortisation of acquired intangible assets, exceptional items and movement in long-term acquisition liabilities and is based on earnings of:

7. Taxation
The weighted average tax rate for the Group for the six-month period ended 30 June 2025 was 27.7% (first half of 2024: 28.2%, year ended 31 December 2024: 29.0%).
The Group's effective tax rate for the full year is expected to be 27.2%, which has been applied to the six months ended 30 June 2025 (first half of 2024: 26.7%, year ended 31 December 2024: 27.3%). This represents an increase on the previous period with the main driver being ongoing strong performance in the US where the effective tax rate has increased and non-deductible tax losses in certain jurisdictions which increases the Group's effective rate.
8. Exceptional items
As noted in the Financial Review, exceptional items totalling £3.0 million (2024 H1: £7.5 million) have been incurred in the period. These costs have been deemed exceptional items as the Group's transformation projects are significant in nature and cost and will yield significant benefits in future periods. Therefore the Group's performance has been summarised including and excluding these costs to give additional information to the users of the financial statements.

The Group's borrowings primarily relate to a credit facility from a syndicate comprising HSBC & Natwest which includes a £60 million long term loan with annual repayments of £5 million per year & and a £30 million Revolving Credit Facility. At the reporting date, £4 million of the Revolving Credit Facility was utilised, leaving flexibility to draw a further £26 million to support working capital needs in the future. Interest on both is based on SONIA plus a margin of +1.50% (2024: +1.75%) based on the Group's net leverage. The Group expects to use its positive operational cash flow to repay these facilities over time. The facilities run until April 2027 with a further year option available subject to bank consent.
The loan has covenants in place meaning the Group needs to comply with the following financial conditions: a) Interest cover in respect of any relevant period shall not be less than 4.0:1.0 and b) Net leverage in respect of each relevant period shall not exceed 3.0:1.0.
Interest cover is calculated as a ratio of EBITDA to Net Finance Charge in respect of any relevant period.
Net leverage is calculated as a ratio of Total Net Debt on the last day of that relevant period to Adjusted EBITDA in respect of that relevant period.

A maximum potential earnout of €4 million relating to the 2023 acquisition of Connexicon and €1.4m relating to the 2024 acquisition of Peters Surgical have been recognised at fair value. Contingent consideration arising on business combinations are categorised as a Level 3 measurement in the fair value hierarchy under IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurements.
The Directors are not aware of any additional contingent liabilities faced by the Group as at 30 June 2025 (30 June 2024: £nil, 31 December 2024: £nil).
13. Equity
Share capital as at 30 June 2025 amounted to £10,961,000 (30 June 2024: £10,881,000, 31 December 2024: £10,892,000). During the period the Group issued 1,378,915 shares in respect of Share Options, LTIPS, Deferred Annual Bonus Scheme and the Share Incentive Plan.
Other reserves includes a merger reserve, share-based payments reserve, Share-based payments deferred tax reserve and Investment in own shares reserve. The merger reserve represents Advanced Medical Solutions Limited's share premium account arising from merger accounting. The Investment in own shares relates to shares held in trust on behalf of employees in respect of the Share Incentive Plan.
A non-controlling interest in Sutural, an Algeria based manufacturer and distributor of Sutures, arose as a result of the 2024 acquisition of Peters Surgical.
14. Going concern
In carrying out their duties in respect of going concern, the Directors have carried out a review of the Group's financial position and cash flow forecasts for the next 12 months and considered whether there are any factors that indicate a deterioration in trading performance beyond 12 months. The forecasts used are based on a comprehensive review of revenue, expenditure and cash flows, taking into account specific business risks and the current economic environment.
The Group has used sensitivity analysis on the Group's forecasted performance, using a 10% sales reduction scenario which is felt to reflect a significant deterioration of trading. The results show that the Group is able to continue its operations for a period of at least 12 months.
With regards to the Group's financial position, it had cash and cash equivalents at 30 June 2025 of £19.3 million and £26 million available under a revolving credit facility as summarised in note 10. The facilities run until April 2027 with a further year option available subject to bank consent. The Group expects to use its positive operational cash flow to repay these facilities over time.
While the current economic environment is uncertain, AMS operates in markets whose demographics are favourable, underpinned by an increasing need for products to treat chronic and acute wounds. Consequently, long-term market growth is expected. The Group has a number of long-term contracts with customers across different geographic regions and also with substantial financial resources, ranging from government agencies through to global healthcare companies.
After taking the above into consideration, the Directors have reached the conclusion that the Group is well placed to manage its business risks in the current economic environment. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements.
15. Principal risks and uncertainties
