Chairman's Report

A year ago I introduced the first annual report of a newly merged Group, Inspiration Healthcare Group plc. This year I am delighted to report on the excellent progress that has been made across the Group in its first full year of trading.

The Group's revenue increased to GBP14.3 million for the year ended 31 January 2017 ("2017") (2016: GBP13.1 million), a rise of 9.4% over last year. The increase is measured against the 2016 revenue shown in the unaudited Proforma Consolidated Income Statement set out overleaf (and included in last year's annual report) as it is used for comparison by the Board, representing 12 months of trading of both Inspiration Healthcare Limited and Inditherm plc for 2016.

As a result of the reverse acquisition of Inditherm plc by Inspiration Healthcare Limited, the statutory basis for reporting results for the year ended 31 January 2016 ("2016") showed revenue of GBP12.3 million and thus reported revenue growth for 2017 is 16.7%.

Compared to the statutory results for 2016, the unaudited Proforma Consolidated Income Statement set out overleaf, includes an additional 20 weeks of Inditherm plc's results prior to the reverse acquisition which has the impact on 2016 of increasing revenue by GBP0.8 million and reducing the operating profit before impairment charges and exceptional items by GBP0.2 million.

Adjusted earnings per share is included as, in the opinion of the Directors, this will allow shareholders to gain a clearer understanding of the trading performance of the Group for the period.

It is pleasing that good sales growth was achieved both Domestically (UK and Ireland) and Internationally, at 9.1% and 9.9%, respectively (on a proforma basis). Sales continue to do well in the USA with our Tecotherm product and our Inspire nCPAP range continues to grow around the world using our distribution partners and strategic alliances.

The main fall-out from Brexit was the volatility of exchange rates which has impacted our cost of goods, particularly of distributed products. However, we have been able to take some actions to partly mitigate the impact: including selective price increases, renegotiating purchase prices as well as benefiting from currency movements on international sales. The net result for the Group has been a slight decline in gross margin.

Our 2017 Operating Profit (before exceptional items) at GBP1.2m was in line with expectations and reflects an increase on the 2016 Proforma Operating Income of 5%.

The first full year results as a combined entity reflect a continuation of the sales momentum from the privately held company and we expect this to continue throughout next year, albeit we face headwinds in our growth programme as a tougher regulatory environment will slow new product introductions.

Regulatory standards for Medical Device companies have continued to become more stringent over recent years. Patient safety is paramount and underpins everything we do. The exhaustive testing for verification and validation of innovative new products is necessary to ensure the safety of our products. The Group will be making further investments in Regulatory Affairs and R&D resources to increase our capacity to meet the heightened regulatory requirements and minimise any impact on speed to market of new products.

During the year, we were delighted to attract some significant new shareholders to the business, following a secondary placement by the founder shareholders. The founder Director shareholders still retain 28% of the shares.

It was a sad moment when we closed the manufacturing facility in South Yorkshire and it is a testament to the staff that were affected, who remained loyal and professional throughout the process. On behalf of the Board I would like to thank them for this and wish them well for the future. We remain convinced that this was an important and correct decision and we will benefit from outsourced manufacturing giving greater flexibility in the future.

Employees

We are delighted to report that we are a Living Wage employer, accredited by the Living Wage Foundation. The Living Wage Foundation recognises employers that pay all employees at or above an hourly rate calculated based on the cost of living in the UK.

We are committed to attracting, retaining, engaging and developing the best people. We know that creating and sustaining an inclusive work environment is critically important, offering equal opportunity from the Boardroom down regardless of race, gender, gender identity or reassignment, age, disability, religion or sexual orientation.

We have continued our policy of retaining our loyal staff through the short-term peaks and troughs of demand. We acknowledge the hard work and endeavour from our staff and on behalf of the Board, I thank them most sincerely for their continued support.

Looking forward

This year, we believe we will benefit from the marketing groundwork on our products focused around birth and the first few moments of life, along with new products in development that should reach the market.

We intend to strengthen our internal resources and invest in our systems and processes to keep pace with the greater regulatory requirements referred to above in order to enhance our platform for future growth. Accordingly, we expect some additional expenses going forward and that some sales will move from the first half to the second half.

The impact of Brexit and the value of sterling still presents some challenges to a company of our size that both imports and exports goods. Our cash reserves and cash collection remain strong and we believe that we are well positioned for the year ahead.

Our expectations for underlying full year growth remain robust and unchanged albeit new product growth will inevitably be slowed as explained above. Notwithstanding the additional revenue investment, we plan to maintain our returns on a growing revenue line.

Mark Abrahams

Chairman

3 May 2017

Operating and Financial Review*

Our revenue grew by 9.4% during the year ended 31 January 2017 ("2017") with good growth being achieved both domestically and internationally.

Operating profit before impairment charges and exceptional items was GBP1.2 million (2016: GBP1.1 million on a proforma basis) and in line with expectations. Underlying operating margin for 2017 was 8.1% (2016: 8.5%). Profit after tax was GBP0.3 million, up GBP0.7 million on 2016. Adjusted EPS** was constant at 3.4p per share.

On a statutory basis reported operating profit was GBP0.4 million for the year (2016: GBP0.1 million) with operating profit before exceptional items of GBP1.2 million (2016: before impairment charges and exceptional items, GBP1.3 million). Profit after tax increased by GBP0.3 million from 2016. Adjusted EPS** declined from 4.1p to 3.4p as the statutory results for 2016 do not include a full year of trading losses of Inditherm plc.

Revenue

From a revenue perspective, the overall performance of the Group was in line with expectations at GBP14.3 million (2016: GBP13.1 million), an increase of 9.4%. Domestic revenue growth was 9.1% and international revenue grew by 9.9%. On a statutory basis 2016 revenue was GBP12.3 million.

Critical Care

(GBP10.0 million, +11% year on year)

Our Critical Care business grew strongly with domestic sales up 10.4% and international sales up 13.0%. The re- organisation of the UK salesforce in 2016 to create a dedicated team including a full time Critical Care sales manager has reaped benefits and underpinned the sales growth in this division. Whereas the Domestic market is particularly important to us in our distribution model, the real growth from our own products in the longer term will be attained internationally. During the financial year, we have made strong progress in both North America and Europe.

Our Technical Support department has contracts with NHS Trusts for planned preventative maintenance. Additionally, we also carry out ad hoc repairs chargeable by the hour and supply spare parts. Technical Support is a core part of our business, which adds value to distribution and helps differentiate us from competitors. Our service offering includes 24/7 emergency hire of life support equipment. Service revenues increased 17% year on year.

Operating Theatre

(GBP1.9 million, -5% year on year)

Our Operating Theatre business includes the original Inditherm surgical warming products as well as some distributed products in the UK that can add value to customers in this area. As expected, the performance reflects a slight decline in revenue for the products acquired from Inditherm in the reverse takeover in 2015 as we restructured this area of the business. Not only have we rationalised the product range to improve manufacturing efficiency, outsourcing production and closing our Rotherham facility towards the end of the year, we also commenced the repositioning of the pricing proposition. By challenging the commercial offering in the UK to offer longer term managed service contracts, thus generating recurring revenue over three years or more rather than an outright one-off sale, we can access NHS revenue budgets.

We expect to continue to increase the customer base and long term revenue as we continue to roll out this new offering to the NHS. We have been extremely pleased in the interest from new and existing customers who were previously unable to secure the large initial capital funding to proceed with our offering. Removing this barrier has significantly strengthened our position in this ever-competitive price sensitive market.

*In the Operational and Financial Review, all comparatives to 2016 are, unless otherwise stated, to the unaudited Proforma Consolidated Income Statement for 2016 ("Proforma") as set out in the Chairman's Report. The Proforma has the impact on 2016 of increasing revenue by GBP0.8 million and reducing operating profit (before impairment charges and exceptional items) by GBP0.2 million.

**EPS before impairment charges and exceptional items

Home Healthcare

(GBP2.4 million, +14% year on year)

We continue to see growth in our parenteral feeding product offering sharing experience with other infusion based products in the portfolio.

The industrial business of Inditherm has made a small contribution to this segment in 2017, but following a strategic review of the business, the decision to close the Rotherham facility during the year resulted in this business being discontinued.

Gross Profit

Gross Profit at GBP6.4 million increased by 6.4% over 2016 (GBP6.0 million). Gross margin declined to 44% from 46% due to the impact of exchange rate movements between Sterling and the Euro since "Brexit". This adversely impacted the gross margin of Distributed products which are sourced in Euro and largely sold domestically in Sterling. Some mitigation of the impact of exchange rates was achieved through selected price increases and supplier negotiations. Gross margins of Inspiration Branded products have held up well.

Operating Expenses

The year on year increase in operating expenses (before impairment charges and exceptional items) of GBP0.5 million is primarily due to higher investment in people-related costs to strengthen Sales and Marketing. Operating expenses (before impairment charges and exceptional items) amounted to 36.3% of revenue, improved from 37.2% in 2016.

Other Income

Other income was GBPnil in 2017 compared to GBP0.3 million in 2016, all of which related to one-time grant income received during that year. The Company will seek to apply for grants as and when the opportunity arises and the qualifying conditions can be met without compromising the direction or timing of the R&D project.

Exceptional Items

The Group presents certain items as exceptional items that are non-recurring and significant. These relate to items which, in the Board's judgement, need to be disclosed by virtue of their size and incidence in order to obtain a more meaningful understanding of the financial information. The exceptional items reported in 2017 consist of GBP0.1 million of severance costs following the change of Group Finance Director and GBP0.6 million for the closure of the Rotherham facility and associated impacts. See note 4 for more detail.

Taxation

The Group has recorded an income tax expense of GBP132,000 (2016: GBP136,000). For more detail see note 5.

Cashflow

The year-end cash and cash equivalents reduced to GBP2.2 million from GBP2.3 million in 2016. Cash generated from operations of GBP0.8 million was offset by payment of taxation GBP0.2 million and investing activities of GBP0.7 million. The primary areas of investment activity related to property, plant and equipment GBP0.3 million, including the new Corporate Head Office in Crawley, and GBP0.3 million of capitalised research and development expenditure.

Review of Business and Future Developments

On a Group basis the future prospects are set out in the Chairman's Report above. Due to the change in the structure of the business following the reverse acquisition during the year ended 31 January 2016 the Directors have included within the Chairman's Report a 12 month Proforma Consolidated Income Statement (unaudited) for 2016 as a comparison of performance to 2017. This comparison for 2016 is used by the Board as the basis for comparisons of financial performance for the year. The Board believes that overall the Annual Accounts and Consolidated Financial Statements are fair, balanced and understandable.

Share Price during the Year

The range of market prices during the period 1 February 2016 to 31 January 2017 as 34.0p to 73.5p and the market price of the Company's shares at 31 January 2016 was 60.5p.

Notes

   1    Accounting Policies 

Basis of preparation

The Final Results have been prepared and approved by the Directors in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union ('Adopted IFRSs'), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), including interpretations by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), and the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The consolidated financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified for any financial assets which are stated at fair value through operating profit or loss and for share based payments which are measured at fair value.

The consolidated financial statements cover the twelve months ended 31 January 2017. The financial statements for the comparative twelve months ended 31 January 2016 represent the substance of the reverse acquisition of Inditherm plc and are those of Inspiration Healthcare Limited.

This announcement does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. This announcement has been agreed with the Company's auditors for release. It contains information extracted from the audited financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 January 2017 which were approved by the Board on 3 May 2017 and include an audit report which was unqualified and which did not contain

a statement   under Section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. 

Alternative financial measures

In the reporting of its financial performance, the Group uses certain measures that are not defined under IFRS, the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) under which the Group reports. The Directors believe that these non-GAAP measures assist with the understanding of the performance of the business. These non-GAAP measures are not a substitute for, or superior to, any IFRS measures of performance but they have been included as the Directors consider them to be an important means of comparing performance year-on-year and they include key measures used within the business for assessing performance.

   2      Segmental analysis 

Inspiration Healthcare Group's sales activities are split into three market sectors, Critical Care, Operating Theatre and Home Healthcare and the revenue segments are defined and reported in Our business and the Operating and financial review. There is no inter-segment trading.

The Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker is the Board of Directors. Following the restructuring during the year of the Group's manufacturing operations and the integration of the activities previously conducted in the Rotherham facility into the function-based management structure at our Leicester and Crawley facilities, the Board of Directors consider that it is more appropriate to report results as one single business segment, i.e. Critical Care Medical Devices. This is consistent with management accounting information reported regularly to the Board.

   3      Revenue 

Geographical analysis of revenue for the years ended 31 January 2017 and 31 January 2016 is as follows:

(c) Factors that may affect future tax charges

The group has gross unused losses estimated at GBP7,596,000. Brought forward losses transferred to the Group due to the reverse acquisition amount to GBP7,373,000 and are potentially available for relief against future trading profits.

   6      Earnings per ordinary share 

Basic earnings per share for the year is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders for the year after tax by the weighted average number of shares in issue. Basic diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue to assume conversion of all potential dilutive ordinary shares.

An adjusted earnings per share and an adjusted diluted earnings per share have also been calculated as in the opinion of the Directors this will allow shareholders to gain a clearer understanding of the trading performance of the Group. These adjusted earnings per share exclude:

   --                                  Re-organisation and other significant non-recurring costs 
   --                                  Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets 
   --                                  The taxation effect at the appropriate rate on adjustments 

Other than GBP110,000 of dilapidation cost, tax on exceptional items has been provisionally disallowed pending finalisation of the group tax computations. The tax impact of this is GBP22,000.

   10    Provision for other liabilities and charges 

The provision for closure of facilities relates to the exceptional cost taken in the year and includes redundancy, dilapidations, project management, obsolete inventory and dual running lease and similar costs. The provision has arisen due to expected timing of cash outflows along with associated uncertainty regarding their final values, but is expected to be fully utilised in the coming financial year.
