•Selling and distribution expenses expand with investment into Australasian brands, expected to

remain steady as a percentage of Australasian sales going forward

•R&D expenditure rises with investment in NasoSURF development and Australasian in-licensing

costs

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
