Trading Update, Notice of Results and AGM
Bioventix plc (BVXP), a UK company specialising in the development and commercial supply of high-affinity monoclonal antibodies for application in clinical diagnostics, announces a trading update.
Trading Update
The Board is pleased to report that revenues for the financial year ended 30 June 2017 are expected to be marginally in excess of £7M (2015/16: £5.5M). Since the cost-base of the Company continues to follow a similar shallow trajectory as in previous years, both revenues and profits before tax are expected to be ahead of market expectations for the year ended 30 June 2017.

The audited accounts for the year ended 30 June 2017 are due to be released on Monday 16 October 2017. We will comment on the revenues in more detail at this time.
AGM
The Bioventix AGM will be held at 2pm on Thursday 14th December 2017 at Farnham Castle (GU9 0AG)
